He Yiming did not make any sound as if he was stepping on cotton. After a few steps, he was back outside the study.
The door of the study was not closed. Before He Yiming entered, he saw Yuan Lixun standing in front of the desk, drawing something with a pen. He was curious, so he did not say anything to wake her up. Instead, he appeared behind her in a flash.
On the desk, a book was spread out. On it, there were some vital energy training methods. In addition, there were some vivid drawings.
Yuan Lixun held the pen and copied everything in the book on another page.
Her handwriting was beautiful, but what really surprised He Yiming was the drawings.
These drawings were almost exactly the same as the original drawings. There was not even a slight difference. With just a glance, He Yiming already knew that Yuan Lixun's drawing skills were far better than his. In terms of careful observation, she was also unique.
Compared to her, He Yiming's calligraphy and drawings were really far behind.
Suddenly, He Yiming's eyes slanted a little and fell on Yuan Lixun's neck.
The snow-white neck exposed outside of her clothes seemed to be carved out of marble. It was so white that one could not help but want to touch it. Her well-proportioned shoulders were rhythmically swaying with the pen in her hand.
She put all her attention into the movements at this moment, so she did not notice that someone was watching.
And because she was so focused, it made her body ripple with an inexplicable intellectual brilliance, which even made He Yiming a little absent-minded.
Yuan Lixun's movements were a little bigger. She opened a piece of paper that had been copied and gently spread it on the corner of the desk.
She tiptoed slightly and bent her waist slightly, outlining a beautiful arc in front of He Yiming's eyes.
Seeing that her elbow was about to touch his body, He Yiming's waist and chest naturally shrank. He Yiming did not know why, but he suddenly enjoyed the feeling of this moment. He even did not have the heart to disturb the girl who was wholeheartedly copying the secret book.
Suddenly, He Yiming realized that he had unknowingly used the Breath Holding Technique. With his strength, once he used this technique, even if he stood behind Yuan Lixun, she would not have the chance to find out.
His face slightly reddened, He Yiming thought to himself, could it be that I have a hobby of peeping?
Yuan Lixun lowered her head again. She flipped a page of the Clairaudient secret book on the table and copied it again.
He Yiming stood quietly behind her, silently watching her every move.
He did not know why he was doing this, but he vaguely felt that in his heart, something seemed to be gently touched.
Finally, Yuan Lixun put down the pen. Her egg-shaped face was slightly flushed, revealing a trace of a satisfied smile.
He Yiming suddenly woke up. His body moved again, silently leaving the room like a ghost.
Yuan Lixun seemed to have sensed something. She looked up in surprise and glanced to the side, but how could she catch sight of He Yiming's figure? She could only shake her head slightly. She thought that her eyes were playing tricks on her because she was wholeheartedly copying.
He Yiming came to the corridor outside the study room. He slightly exerted force on his feet and immediately made a slight sound of footsteps.
Yuan Lixun was a cultivator of Inner Qi Stage Five. Although this level of strength was not in He Yiming's eyes, but the deliberately heavy footsteps were undoubtedly heard clearly by her.
Sure enough, when He Yiming came back to the study room, Yuan Lixun had already finished arranging everything and was waiting for him with a smile.
"What are you doing?" He Yiming asked, even though he already knew the answer.
"Young Master, I just saw you copying this book, but you went to see Young Master Lin after copying half of it. So I'll do it for you." Yuan Lixun slightly lowered her head and said softly.
After this period of interaction, both sides had a certain understanding of each other. Yuan Lixun also knew that although He Yiming was an Innate Ranker, he did not have a strange temper and had always been easy to talk to. It was because of this that she took the initiative to copy the secret book for him.
He Yiming slightly nodded and pretended to come in front of the study table. However, when he saw the papers, his face could not help but slightly redden.
The first half was naturally copied by him. If it was compared to the second half, it was really a bit unpresentable.
Yuan Lixun's gaze also fell on the second half of the content. Her face slightly changed, and her heart also became nervous.
After a while, He Yiming picked up the first half of the book he copied. His hands lightly rubbed, and suddenly a wisp of smoke appeared. It was actually burned in his hands.
Then He Yiming pursed his lips and a gentle breath blew. Suddenly, the ashes that had already been burned to ashes were gently sent into the wastebasket in the corner of the room.
Yuan Lixun's beautiful eyes widened in surprise, and her eyes were filled with envy.
For a martial skill to be trained to such a level, it was indeed miraculous.
He Yiming picked up the papers that Yuan Lixun copied. Yuan Lixun's heart suddenly jumped, and she did not know how he would deal with it.
"Your calligraphy is very good, and your drawing is also very good. Who learned it from?" He Yiming asked.
Yuan Lixun's heart relaxed, and she quickly said: "My calligraphy and drawing were learned with my brother from the elders in the clan."
"Your brother?" He Yiming was slightly startled, and his heart was sweating. After being together with her for a few months, he actually did not even know that she had a brother.
"Yes, this concubine's biological brother." Yuan Lixun's expression quickly darkened. Obviously, this biological brother occupied a very important position in her heart.
He Yiming's heart inexplicably had a trace of annoyance, but he immediately suppressed it and said: "What's your brother's name? How is his life in the clan?"
Yuan Lixun's eyes flashed with a trace of nostalgia. Her gentle voice carried a trace of ethereal taste: "My brother is a cute child. His name is Yuan Lixiang. In the clan …" She paused, hesitated, and finally said: "His life now should be good."
He Yiming did not know much about the ways of the world, but the meaning of this sentence was very clear.
"Could it be that he's not living well?"
Yuan Lixiang hesitated: "Perhaps it was not good before, but now, it's definitely very good." She raised her head, and a trace of determination finally appeared in her eyes: "As long as I can always be by your side to serve you, then his life will definitely be good."
He Yiming nodded slightly, looked at the secret manual on the table, and said: "Copy this book again." He turned and walked to the door of the room, stopped, and suddenly said: "Your calligraphy and paintings are so good. In the future, when I obtain the secret manuals, all of them will be copied and organized by you. You must not make any mistakes."
Yuan Lixiang was shocked at first, then as if she understood something, she immediately lowered her head, and said in a voice like a bug: "Yes … Young Master."
In the past, when she called him 'Young Master', because she had already accepted her fate, she did not feel much. But today, for some reason, there was a trace of a strange feeling in her heart.
A trace of red quickly flashed across her face. When she raised her head, she suddenly discovered that He Yiming had disappeared without a trace.
She stared blankly in front of her. After a long while, she turned around and went to the table, and once again copied the first half of the secret manual of Clairaudient. But this time, the time she used was twice as long, and during this time, she made three mistakes. When she finally finished copying all of it, and finished proofreading and organizing, her face was already slightly hot.
He Yiming's words just now lingered in her mind. Was this … a promise?
All of a sudden, she covered her flushed face. She was flabbergasted. What was wrong with her?
※ ※ ※
Coming to his room, He Yiming took out the secret manual that Lin Taoli had sent.
His gaze fell on the secret manual, and suddenly found that he was a little restless. His heart trembled, and he took a deep breath. His strong willpower quickly came into play at this moment, but in the time it took to take a breath, he had already collected all his thoughts.
Putting the two books on the table, He Yiming flipped through them one by one. The first thing he checked was to see if there were any differences between the two books.
Although this possibility was not great, but he still had to be on guard.
His movements were extremely fast, and when he was fully immersed in it, he just glanced at it a few times to know if there were any differences on a page.
In less than an hour, he had finished proofreading. The two secret manuals were exactly the same, without the slightest mistake. Even the pictures in the books were exactly the same, and it was clear that the person who copied them had put in a lot of effort.
Putting away the original, he slowly flipped through the copy in his hand.
This time, he read it carefully. In this secret manual, there were a total of five handprint techniques recorded.
Among them, there were three earth-type techniques, the Fodi-earth Seal, the Sky-flipping Seal, and the Sky-raising Seal.
There were two water-type techniques, the Flowing Water Seal and the Seal of Clouds and Rain.
After seeing the names of these five techniques, He Yiming's eyes suddenly showed a trace of excitement.
He had secretly learned part of the Fodi-earth Seal and the Seal of Clouds and Rain from Lin Taoli, and combined his own characteristics to create the Hidden Needle Seal, a handprint technique that was both offensive and defensive.
However, after he had advanced to the Primordial stage and used this technique many times, he always felt that something was missing. In particular, after he had an epiphany at the top of the mountain and created the Soaring Cloud and Rain Technique, this feeling became even stronger.
Therefore, he had always wanted to find an opportunity to take a look at the original copy of the two handprint techniques, and now he finally got his long-cherished wish.
After finding the two handprint techniques in the secret manual, He Yiming read it bit by bit and compared it with the essential Qi changes that he imagined.
After a long time, He Yiming suddenly stood up. Just like that, he stood still on the spot and raised his hands horizontally. His hands suddenly changed in front of his eyes.
In the beginning, the speed was so fast that there was even a trace of an afterimage, which was impossible to catch.
However, as He Yiming's movements became more skillful, the speed of his handprint became slower.
If at the beginning, it was eight times or even 16 times faster, then it was eight times or even 16 times slower now.
Every movement of his seemed to take some time to consider before he moved, giving people a strange feeling that he was an old bull pulling a broken cart.
However, at the same time, his body inexplicably rippled with a feeling that was as thick as the earth. Although his movements were slow, they seemed to be unusually condensed I. His hands were like huge battlements that formed a moving immortal Great Wall in front of him.
If the Lin family saw He Yiming's movements at the moment, they would definitely be so shocked that they would prostrate themselves on the ground.
This was because He Yiming was using the Crouching Earth Handprint, and it was a real Primordial technique.
This handprint technique was not a unique technique that could be unleashed by a Postliminary Realm expert. When it was used by Lin Taoli and when it was used by He Yiming at the moment, it was in a completely different realm and power.
Suddenly, He Yiming's wrist shook, and a handprint suddenly stopped.
In an instant, the invisible and powerful city wall in front of him disappeared.
Sighing softly, He Yiming let out a helpless and bitter smile. He realized that he had yet to fully grasp this cultivation method.
What one needed to learn in a Primordial technique was not only the use of Primordial Qi, but also the comprehension of this technique. If one could not comprehend the true essence of this technique, then no matter how strong one's Primordial Qi was, one would not be able to unleash the true power of this Primordial technique.
Although He Yiming's physique was special, it had not been fully developed, so when he was practicing the Crouching Earth Handprint, he still made some mistakes.
He frowned slightly and thought carefully. He vaguely felt that this handprint technique was really broad and profound. If he wanted to fully comprehend it, it would not be easier than studying the Art of Clouds and Rain.
He sighed in his heart. He finally understood why Shui Xuanjin had repeatedly warned him not to bite off more than he could chew. Now, it seemed that it was indeed so.
However, he did not know that if the speed at which he learned the Crouching Earth Handprint was spread, it would definitely scare a large number of Primordial experts to death.
It was his first time performing the Primordial Heavenly Handprint, and he could actually condense a wall of Qi. This was definitely not something that ordinary Primordial experts could imagine. Even a genius who specialized in practicing Earth Series techniques would not be able to do this.
Sighing softly, he waved his hand again, but this time, it was no longer the Crouching Earth Handprint, but the illusory Cloud Rain Handprint that came and went without a trace.
He Yiming formed handprints one by one. This set of handprints was like moving clouds and flowing water, and there was not the slightest obstruction in the middle.
His eyes were faintly shining, as if he had put all his energy into this set of handprints.
Slowly, his feet began to move, and he took a magical step in this not spacious room. With the combination of the footsteps and handprints, his person seemed to have disappeared at this moment. The entire room was filled with a cloud that was constantly moving.
At this moment, He Yiming suddenly had a feeling in his heart. He seemed to have faintly found the key to a breakthrough in his fist technique.
During this period of time, he had done everything possible to integrate his understanding of clouds and rain into his fist technique. However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not do it perfectly.
Even when he was using the glaive, he could not successfully merge them into one in his fist technique.
However, after reading through the secret manual of the Seal of Clouds and Rain today, he felt like he had come to a sudden realization.
He faintly felt that he seemed to have touched the edge of the epiphany that he had that day. As long as he put in a little more effort, he could enter that state of epiphany again.
If he performed his fist technique in that state, he would definitely be able to smoothly integrate the feeling of clouds and rain into his fist technique, just like how he integrated the glaive.
However, just as he formed a chain of handprints and faintly reached the peak of this style, he stopped once again.
This was because he suddenly felt that the Soaring Cloud Rain Technique that he created seemed to have a slight conflict with the body technique that matched the Cloud Rain Handprint.
Of these two techniques, one was agile and quick. When used in a hurry, it was like the sound of rain, boundless and boundless. It came crashing down like a mountain breeze and drizzle. It seemed gentle, but it could cover all corners in an instant.
On the other hand, the other was strange and unpredictable, like the unpredictable clouds in the sky. It did not have a fixed form. However, it was precisely because of this that the body technique could be combined with the Cloud Rain Handprint to unleash the power of the handprint to the extreme.
He Yiming could clearly sense that if the two cultivation techniques could be merged into one, their power would definitely be improved by leaps and bounds.
However, the problem was that it was easier said than done to fuse two different Innate techniques into one.
What's more, the feeling he got from these two cultivation methods was that there was a possibility of merging them, but they lacked an important opportunity.
He Yiming sighed gently and put the secret manual on the table away. Countless thoughts flashed through his mind. The more he cultivated, the more troubles he had.
He pushed the door open and walked out of the room. Suddenly, his ears twitched. With a single movement, he immediately appeared outside the door.
At this moment, a familiar figure was walking around anxiously outside his door. When he saw He Yiming suddenly appear in front of him, he could not help but be overjoyed. He hurriedly said, "Master He, you've finally come out."
He Yiming smiled. "Mister Xue, do you have something urgent to see me about?"
Xue Lie nodded. "Master He, envoys from the Kairong Kingdom have arrived in Heaven Luo City. After meeting His Majesty, they've turned to request an audience with our nation's protector. His Majesty has already agreed to host a state banquet in the imperial palace at noon tomorrow. He's invited master to accompany him. "
He Yiming asked in surprise, "Are those people's identities very special?"
"Yes, among those people, there is the Third Prince of the Kairong Kingdom, Zhan Zhichao, the Fifth Princess Zhan Zhiyan, and …" He paused and said carefully, "There is also a Grand Master of the Kairong Kingdom accompanying them."
He Yiming's eyes lit up as he asked, "Who is that?"
"Cheng Fu, this person has already stepped into the Xiantian realm for twenty years. He is one of the best among the new generation of Xiantian experts." Xue Lie said worriedly, "Grandmaster He, you've seen my master, so you should know about the changes in his body. Now that Cheng Fu is here, I'm afraid … "
He Yiming waved his hand and said, "I understand. Mr. Xue, please tell your master that I also want to meet the Primordial Master from Kai Rong Country and ask him to allow me to accompany him tomorrow."
Xue Lie took a step back and silently bowed to the ground … (To be continued, if you want to know what happened next, please go to www.qidian.com to read more chapters. Support the author, support the original reading!)
