Celestial City.
Yeh family's Martial Pavilion, third floor.
This was the most important place in the Ye Clan. Even the Elders of the Ye Clan had a time limit and were not allowed to enter as they wished.
At this moment, Ye Xing was on the third floor of the Martial Pavilion, reading martial arts manuals. The Martial Pavilion Elder Ye Wentian was beside him.
There were not many martial arts manuals on the third floor of the Martial Pavilion, only seven!
One of them was an upper-grade cultivation technique called Qingyuan Art.
Another was an upper-grade cultivation technique called Silver Body Technique.
Three upper-grade martial arts techniques called Heavenly Extinguishing Finger, Thousand Shadows Fist, and Lifeless Sword Art.
One was an upper-grade movement technique called Four-directional Steps.
One was an upper-grade movement technique called Traceless Snowflake.
These seven martial arts were all upper-grade, and without exception, they were all incomplete.
Ye Xing already knew the origin of these seven upper-grade martial arts. They all came from the Purple Mountain Institute.
Generations of geniuses from the Ye Clan who entered the Purple Mountain Institute learned upper-grade martial arts from the institute. After returning to Celestial City, they wrote the upper-grade martial arts manuals based on their understanding of martial arts.
Because the upper-grade martial arts they learned were not complete, they could not write the complete upper-grade martial arts manuals. Every one of them was incomplete.
In order to complete these seven martial arts manuals, the geniuses from the Ye Clan who entered the Purple Mountain Institute learned all the upper-grade martial arts manuals in these seven martial arts manuals.
However, the requirement of high level martial arts was too high. Ye Clan only had one genius, Ye Tianjue, a hundred years ago, who had cultivated the Qingyuan Art to the Great Completion Realm. In the end, Ye Tianjue had cultivated to the Great Completion Realm, and he had cultivated the Heavenly Finger to the Great Completion Realm.
During Ye Tianjue's era, the Ye Clan was at its peak. They were the number one martial arts family in Celestial City. Because of Ye Tianjue's improvements, Qingyuan Art and Heavenly Extinguishing Finger were relatively more complete.
Ye Xing first looked at the Qingyuan Art. The Qingyuan Art in the secret manual could be cultivated by opening ten meridians. It was the same as the Xuan Qing Art that Ye Xing had improved, but it was of little value.
This was because the XuanQin Skill could directly open up ten meridians for cultivation, while the QingYuan Skill could only open up ten meridians when it was cultivated to the Great Accomplishment Realm. Otherwise, only eight meridians could be opened at the Entry Realm, and only nine meridians could be opened at the Minor Accomplishment Realm.
Actually, the complete Qingyuan Art required more than just ten meridians to be opened. Even the entry level could open ten meridians. However, the Ye Clan's Qingyuan Art was incomplete. Thus, not only was the efficiency low, it was also extremely difficult to cultivate.
Ye Xing scanned the contents of QingYuan Skill into his superbrain, and soon, he made a shocking discovery.
Compared to other people's incomplete Qingyuan Art, he could actually understand it. Furthermore, the superbrain was still perfecting the missing parts of Qingyuan Art.
Not long after, QingYuan Skill became a complete upper class technique that could be cultivated by opening up twelve meridians.
The reason for this was directly related to Ye Xing's martial arts knowledge. Ye Xing's superbrain was too powerful. In terms of martial arts theory, it was not weaker than a martial arts master. In terms of deduction, it was far better than a martial arts master.
Ye Xing had only cultivated the Evergreen Art and Xuan Qing Art. However, he had read all the cultivation techniques in the Ye Clan's Martial Pavilion. Whether it was the lower class or upper class cultivation techniques, Ye Xing had read them all and memorized them in his superbrain. Not only would he never forget them, but his superbrain also understood all the principles behind the cultivation techniques. This greatly enhanced Ye Xing's martial arts knowledge.
Martial arts masters could recite a few lower class or middle class cultivation techniques, but they might not be able to explain the complete principles behind the cultivation techniques.
However, Ye Xing could. Ye Xing had turned every cultivation technique into his own knowledge. Not only did he know them, but he could also understand the principles behind them.
The superbrain had such a powerful function that it could complete the deduction of martial arts.
From Ye Xing's point of view, QingYuan Skill was not incomplete. The basic cultivation technique was still there. It only lacked the knowledge to teach people to understand it.
Upper class martial arts were much more difficult than middle class martial arts. It was unlike middle class martial arts, where anyone with a certain level of comprehension could learn the secret manual by themselves.
Upper class martial arts could not be learned by oneself if one did not have a high level of comprehension. This was because they could not understand it at all. Therefore, not only did they need the cultivation technique, but they also needed the cultivation experience to impart.
This kind of martial arts could only be learned by a master. Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult to learn if one only had the secret manual without the cultivation experience left behind by their predecessors.
The upper class martial arts of the Ye Clan did not lack the cultivation technique, but the cultivation experience of their predecessors. In fact, the cultivation technique was not that incomplete.
Ye Xing's biggest advantage over other martial arts practitioners was his superbrain's self-learning advantage. The superbrain could verify and deduce the correct cultivation method based on the principles of other martial arts, allowing Ye Xing to know how to cultivate.
Ye Xing could learn things that normal martial arts practitioners could not learn without the guidance of a master.
QingYuan Skill was like that.
Even Ye Tianjue, who had cultivated QingYuan Skill to perfection a hundred years ago, did not necessarily have a deeper understanding of QingYuan Skill than Ye Xing.
Therefore, Ye Tianjue's QingYuan Art, which he wrote based on his own cultivation experience, still had some flaws. Ye Xing's super brain, on the other hand, made up for the flaws by deducing the principles of other martial arts.
However, when Ye Xing flipped to the last page of the QingYuan Skill manual, he realized that his perfected QingYuan Skill was not complete.
The last page recorded that a perfected QingYuan Skill had a total of six stages. The first three stages increased the number of meridians opened, and the last three stages increased the quality of inner strength.
Ye Xing's perfected QingYuan Skill was only at the third stage. If he succeeded in cultivating it, he could open twelve meridians. However, it was not enough to increase the quality of inner strength.
If he wanted to perfect QingYuan Skill, Ye Xing's current knowledge of martial arts was not enough. He had to go to Mount Indigo Academy to learn more martial arts. Moreover, the complete QingYuan Skill manual was in Mount Indigo Academy.
Ye Xing put down the QingYuan Skill manual. He was very satisfied. Although he did not get the complete QingYuan Skill manual, just the part he got was enough to open twelve meridians. It was much stronger than his own XuanQin Skill.
Ye Xing then picked up the Silver Body Technique manual and read it. It was the same as QingYuan Skill. In fact, the Silver Body Technique was more complete. However, there were very few cultivation experiences. Even if the Ye Clan's martial artists had a cultivation technique, they would not be able to understand it. Therefore, it felt very incomplete.
The superbrain also deduced the Silver Body Technique based on the knowledge of the Body Refining Skill and perfected it.
Ye Xing's body still had remnants of the Blood Dam's medicinal effects. The newly learned QingYuan Skill and Silver Body Technique could increase the speed of absorbing these remnants of medicinal effects. Presumably, his cultivation and physical strength would increase rapidly for a period of time.
Sky Extinguishing Finger, Thousand Shadow Fist, Lifeless Sword Technique, Four-sided Steps, Traceless Flying Snow …
Ye Xing read through all the martial arts manuals one by one.
Ye Wentian wanted to remind Ye Xing that the most important thing in martial arts was the quality, not the quantity. The difficulty of cultivating high-grade martial arts was extremely high, especially the incomplete ones. It was as difficult as ascending to the heavens. It was not easy to cultivate even one type. There were only five days left until the Purple Mountain Academy's recruitment competition. Do not read this and read that. Only by reading one type and learning one type would there be a possibility of mastering it.
However, when he thought of the first time Ye Xing entered the Martial Pavilion, he reminded him of this. However, Ye Xing obviously did not listen to him and learned many martial arts. In the end, many of them were cultivated to the Perfection Stage.
Therefore, Ye Wentian swallowed the words that were about to come out of his throat. He thought to himself, 'Maybe I really don't understand the world of martial arts geniuses!'
After the super brain's deduction, Ye Xing gained a lot of benefits. He was certain that as long as he was given enough time, he would be able to cultivate all seven high-grade martial arts. Moreover, his attainment in them would not be low.
However, there were only five days left until the Purple Mountain Academy's recruitment competition. No matter how fast the super brain learned martial arts, he would not be able to learn all seven martial arts before then.
Ye Xing pondered for a moment and decided to focus on the Thousand Shadow Fist first. The super brain was the most helpful to the cultivation of martial arts. Moreover, Ye Xing majored in fist and leg techniques. Therefore, the Thousand Shadow Fist was the most suitable choice.
"Ye Xing, you can stay on the third floor of the Martial Pavilion for the next five days. Why are you leaving so soon?"
Elder Ye Wentian could not help but ask when he saw that Ye Xing was about to leave the Martial Pavilion after reading through all seven manuals once.
Ye Xing smiled faintly. He tapped his head with his index finger and said, "I have already memorized how to cultivate them. What I need to do next is practice."
After leaving the Martial Pavilion, Ye Xing returned to his residence. For the next five days, he would be in seclusion to cultivate the Thousand Shadow Fist.
