"You just said that your brother-in-law is a soldier, and the soldier cultivates the military's unified Diamond Strength Qigong. This Diamond Strength Qigong is the most basic cultivation method. How could it let you cultivate the fire attribute?"
Towards the end, there was a hint of sharpness in his voice.
"At first, I cultivated the Herculean Strength Vajra Qigong, but after I developed a sense for qi, brother-in-law taught me the Ignis Heart Technique!"
"Ignis Skill?" Hearing these words, Old Xing became serious, "How could your brother-in-law know Ignis Skill?"
"He said that this [Fiery Mantra] was his spoils of war on the battlefield. He found it on the body of an enemy he killed!"
"That makes sense!" Old Xing nodded and said thoughtfully, "The Ignis Skill is the entry-level mental cultivation method of the Southern Sect of Flame. Many disciples of the Sect of Flame practice it. The Sect of Flame and the imperial court are like fire and water, so conflicts are common. It's not surprising that your brother-in-law got it. But your brother-in-law is really bold to let you practice this martial art. Although the Ignis Skill is superficial, it is an entry-level mental cultivation method of the Internal Qi of fire property. It is very clever in absorbing and transforming the pneuma of fire property, which is incomparable to the Unusual Strength Qigong. Isn't he afraid that you will be burned to death if you are possessed by the Qi Deviation? “
Junior Leopard smiled bitterly in his heart. How could this be taught by Wang Tianlei? Obviously, he learned it secretly. However, he couldn't say it out loud, so he could only smile bitterly.
"But this is also good. The [Ignis Mantra] that you cultivate is compatible with our sect's martial arts. Moreover, your foundation is also very good. It has saved me a lot of effort!"
When Junior Leopard heard Old Xing's words, there was a hint of joy in his tone. His words didn't sound like what a blacksmith should say, but more like what a training elder of a school should say. Junior Leopard couldn't help but raise his head in astonishment.
"You don't have to be surprised. When your brother-in-law taught you martial arts, he must have told you some things about Jianghu, right?"
"Although he said some, he doesn't know much!"
"Of course. Things in Jianghu are complicated. He is just an ordinary soldier. How could he know so many things?" Old Xing said in deep thought.
"Master, are you actually a great master?!" Junior Leopard asked in a low voice with a mysterious look on his face, which made Old Xing laugh.
"Master, I'm not a master. I'm just an ordinary disciple of the Wu's. I'm not a master!"
"Wu Family?!"
"Yes, the Wu Family, the owner of the Wu Family ironware shop, the Yunzhou Wu Family!" Speaking of the Wu's, Old Xing's Qi Power suddenly changed, and his stooped back straightened up. "Come on, Junior Leopard, let me tell you about the Wu's!"
Yunzhou's Wu Family was a well-known smelting family. Their ironware business was spread all over the world. It could be said that their wealth could rival a country. In order to protect such wealth, they naturally needed strong martial arts and a strong backer.
The Wu's lacked neither.
Speaking of this, the origin of the Wu's had to be mentioned. 500 years ago, the ancestor of the Wu's was an ordinary blacksmith. However, because of his high aptitude and excellent comprehension, he was favored by the Taoist Master of Tian Long Taoism and was accepted as a disciple.
Tian Long Taoism was one of the three big schools in Jin. It was also one of the few prestigious schools in the world. There were many experts in the school. At the same time, it was also a strong supporter of the Jin royal family.
The ancestor of the Wu's was accepted as a disciple. After several years of hard practice, he became a Level Nine expert and established the foundation of the Wu's.
In terms of martial arts, the Wu's had the martial arts cultivation method passed down by the ancestor. If he practiced it successfully, he would be a Level Nine expert. In terms of backer, the Wu's had Tian Long Taoism behind it. Some outstanding young disciples of the Wu's were often sent to Tian Long Taoism. Who dared to provoke them?
Therefore, in the past hundreds of years, the business of the Wu's became bigger and bigger, and gradually developed into the present Wu's.
Someone would ask why the relationship between the Wu's and Tian Long Taoism was 500 years ago. Why did the Wu's protect them now?
This would have to start from business. When it came to business, it would have to talk about the most fundamental thing, money.
Tian Long Taoism was one of the few sects in the world. It had a big business and a big appetite. Martial arts experts also needed to eat. To eat, they needed money. To practice, they needed elixirs and resources. But where did the money, elixirs and resources come from?
They couldn't go down the mountain all day long. Even if they went down the mountain, the world was so big. No matter how many people there were in Tian Long Taoism, they couldn't find them all!
Therefore, a prestigious sect like the Tian Long Taoism would have many affiliated forces to help them complete all these tasks.
This was just like how landlords collected rent. Landlords had a lot of land, but they wouldn't cultivate it themselves. They couldn't finish cultivating so much land, so they could only rent it to tenants. But at the end of every year, the landlords' harvest would always be much more than the workers'. This was the same logic.
The Wu's was one of the subsidiary powers of Tian Long Taoism in the secular world. They were one of the tenants of Tian Long Taoism. Although their business was big and they made a lot of money, a considerable part of it had to be given to Tian Long Taoism. This was also a disguised protection fee.
Of course, the existence of Tian Long Taoism was only to be the backing of the Wu's. It was impossible for the Wu's to ask for Tian Long Taoism's help for everything. Otherwise, Tian Long Taoism would be busy to death. Therefore, the Wu's also had its own martial arts, which were very strong.
The ancestor of the Wu's was born in Tian Long Taoism and cultivated the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique of Tian Long Taoism. Naturally, the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique was passed down. Besides the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique, there was also the 81 movements of the Wild Hammering Skill, which he comprehended during the smelting process. Its power was infinite. The Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique and the Wild Hammering Skill had become the Wu's most treasured divine skills.

Now, the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique and the Wild Hammering Skill had become the Wu's most treasured divine skills.
Therefore, in a sense, the Wu's could be counted as the best among the tenant farmers. In addition to farming the land of the landlord, the Wu's also had some land at home. They were rich farmers among the tenant farmers.
His follower was naturally not an apprentice. With the wealth and power of the Wu's, they had recruited countless apprentices over the past hundreds of years. Among the apprentices, they selected those with good aptitude and high comprehension to practice the basic cultivation method. Then, they selected the outstanding ones to practice the more advanced cultivation method.
The so-called Blacksmiths were apprentices who had been taught Elementary Cultivation Techniques, but were unable to advance any further.
These people were taught the basic cultivation method of the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique and had some understanding of the Fire Original Energy. At the same time, they were taught the first nine moves of the Wild Hammering Skill. The ancestors of the Wu's had an epiphany of the Way of Smelting, so the hammering skill naturally contained the profound Way of Smelting. With the combination of the two, although their martial arts were not high, they were much more profound than ordinary blacksmiths in the Way of Smelting.
These people were the backbone of the Wu's Family and also the elite. Old Xing was such a person. At his old age, when he retired and served as a teacher, he also shouldered another mission, which was to select talents and inject fresh blood into the Wu's.
Junior Leopard in front of him was a very suitable one. He could even be said to be a rare talent.
At the age of eight, he had already practiced the Internal Qi, and it was the Internal Qi of Fire, which was similar to the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique. When he practiced the basic skills of hammering skill, he even entered the state of epiphany. This showed that he had a very high potential in hammering skill. If such a person was not cultivated well, it would be a loss to the Wu's.
Junior Leopard stood quietly and listened to Old Xing's account of the cause and effect of the matter. He secretly calculated in his heart.
"Looking at the situation, Old Xing wants me to join the Wu's. Well, thinking about it, the Wu's is a good choice. As the saying goes, it's good to enjoy the shade under a big tree. The Wu's is a big family, so it's not a waste for me to stay under this big tree. Moreover, there's someone who can teach me martial arts for free. Not bad, not bad!"
"Do you understand what I'm saying?"
While he was thinking, Old Xing's voice came into his ears.
"I understand!" Junior Leopard quickly said.
"It's good that you understand. Do you have any ideas?"
"It's up to you, teacher!" Junior Leopard quickly said. At this time, even if he had other ideas, he could not say it.
"OK!" Old Xing nodded with satisfaction, and his face became solemn. "Just now outside, you met my requirement of hammering the wooden pile, so you don't need to practice with them anymore. You've practiced the Ignis Skill and Ignis Internal Qi, which is really good. It saves me a lot of trouble. I'll teach you the introductory cultivation method of Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique and the Nine Styles Hammer Skill. By the way, your brother-in-law was born in the army, so the punching skill you practiced with him should be Killing Thousands of Troops. This set of punching skill is very strong in the battle formation, but its power is not very good in a one-on-one fight. I'll teach you another punching skill. As for the punching skill of body tempering —!"
Speaking of the punching skill of body tempering, Old Xing looked gloomy. "You continue to practice the Bear Demon Punching Skill in the army. If you can pass the family selection two years later when you are 10 years old, you will have the opportunity to learn the punching skill of Bone Forging."
"The punching skill of Bone Forging?!" Junior Leopard's eyes lit up. The Bear Demon Punching Skill was a punching skill for Skin Toughening. He had practiced it to the limit that his body could bear at this stage. However, he had never touched the punching skill of Bone Forging. Although Tai Chi also had the effect of Bone Forging, it was just like its movements: the effect was too slow.
"Teacher, if I pass the selection, can I learn the punching skill of Bone Forging?!"
"Yes, as long as you pass the selection, you will become an inner disciple, and naturally you will have the opportunity to practice the more profound punching skill of Bone Forging!"
"What's the Selection Contest?!"
"The Selection Contest is held by the Wu's to select elite apprentices every year. Any apprentice over the age of 10 is eligible to participate. However, the selection process is very strict. Although you have a good foundation, you can't be careless. In the next two years, you must practice hard, understand?!"
"I understand!" Little Shiba said respectfully.
