Chapter 369: 0243 Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix, Mysterious Swallow Soars to the Sky (4k seek double monthly ticket)_2

"Good, I’ve noted it down."

Wang Xian said,

"The first is the ’Six Harmonies Spear,’ which is a required course for Spear Skill masters in Fist Theory. It is to some extent connected to Fist Theory, and Fist Theory itself is intricately linked to our Elephant Form. Therefore, this Spear Skill should be relatively easy for you to learn.

The second is the ’Pear Blossom Spear Technique,’ an old Yang Family Spear Skill that has been tried and tested on the battlefield through countless encounters with blood and fire. The Yang Family Spear is known by everyone, recognized by all; if you can master it, your Spear Skill will be as unstoppable as a downpour of pear blossoms.

The third is the ’Li Quan Spear Skill,’ which is the invincible Spear Skill that the old world’s General Yue realized on the battlefield while resisting the barbarians. This Spear Skill is grand and majestic, prepared to sacrifice life for righteousness!

Once you’ve mastered these three Spear Skills, you’ll naturally understand other Spear Skills without needing a teacher. Unless you are a Martial Artist who specializes in Spear Skill, among the Martial Artists of the Elephant Form lineage, those whose Spear Skill is comparable to yours can be said to be as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. What you need to do next is to learn True Skill Level Spear Techniques. Even by mastering just any one Lower Grade True Skill Spear Technique, combined with your Divine Weapon, you can inflict damage no less powerful than a Middle Grade True Skill level Fist Technique."

"Good, thank you, senior brother."

"I know the Six Harmonies Spear, do you want to learn it now?"

"Yes."

"Alright, then I’ll teach you the beginner’s method."

On the shore of Stone Lake, the two brothers drew their long spears on the spot.

With a languid expression, Wang Xian, holding the spear in his right hand, asked,

"You know about the ’Six Harmonies’ in Fist Theory, right?"

Lu Chenzhou nodded,

"The heart is in harmony with intention, intention with Qi, Qi with strength, shoulders with hips, ribs with knees, hands with feet... I oftentimes exchange moves with a Fist Theory Martial Artist."

He was speaking of Huo Tiandian. After becoming a Martial Artist earlier this year, the first thing he did was travel thousands of miles to Su City to spar with Lu Chenzhou, only to return home defeated...

Wang Xian said,

"Elephant Form and Fist Theory share some foundational principles. With your skill as a Martial Artist, you should be able to pick this up quickly. What I will teach you is the Six Harmonies of Spear Skill, which are: one cut, two advance, three block, four entangle, five grab, and six thrust."

Having said that, Wang Xian lunged with his spear, moving it like a venomous snake.

The spear tip blossomed, emitting a brilliance like a peony unfolding, dazzling and captivating.

"This is the First Great Spear, the Martial King’s Flag!"

Wang Xian’s form entwined in close, with the long spear coming at Lu Chenzhou in a strange crane pecking at water motion, striking fiercely. Lu Chenzhou raised his spear to block, retreating explosively.

"Hisss..."

His hands trembled violently, the spear nearly slipping from his grasp.

Wang Xian laughed and said,

"This is the Second Great Spear, Phoenix Nod!"

He continued to showcase various moves, each one deeply mysterious.

Every move he made integrated the Six Harmonies into one, leaving no room for weakness.

"The Third Great Spear, Snake Seeking Grass!"

"The Fourth Great Spear, Agile Cat Catches Mouse!"

"The Fifth Great Spear, Yaksha Sea Exploration!"

"The Sixth Great Spear, White Ape Dragging a Knife!"

After demonstrating the six great spears, Wang Xian looked towards Lu Chenzhou, who had been sent flying, and laughingly asked,

"How about it? Simple, isn’t it?"

Lu Chenzhou trod upon the water and approached, his spear like a soaring dragon’s tail, cutting through the East Sea’s waves, and then with a tricky angle, pierced through Wang Xian’s spear shadows, lashing out straight and tensioned!

Wang Xian extended his right hand, grasping it lightly.

Lu Chenzhou smiled and said,

"Senior brother, how was my Yaksha Sea Exploration?"

Wang Xian put down the long spear and applauded,

"With the posture of a Spear God, you’ve entered beginner level in one go."

Lu Chenzhou bowed with his fists together,

"Thank you, senior brother."

As Wang Xian walked away, his voice carried back, "Let me know when you’re ready to go to the Void Realm. The ’Li Quan Spear Skill’ and ’Pear Blossom Spear Technique’ are available in the school’s Spear Manual."

Lu Chenzhou gazed towards the Martial Arts Tree.

[Six Harmonies Spear: Beginner (1%)]

"With my current Martial Arts Comprehension, there’s no need to start learning from third-rate Martial Arts. I shall master these three first-rate Martial Arts to perfection and integrate them into True Skill Level Spear Techniques."

Lu Chenzhou practiced the Spear Skill alone on the lake surface.

His spear swept through obstacles as if cleaving thistles and thorns, riding the wind and breaking the waves!

...

In October, the north wind was unceasing.

On the shore of Stone Lake,

A figure skimmed across the sky, flying low over the lake like a deity, dancing along with the swallows and gracefully landing on the water’s surface without causing a ripple.

His movement technique was effortlessly graceful, light as a feather.

After performing the Fist Technique, the figure stood alone on the lake’s surface while a flock of swallows circled around him, chirping in a fuss as if they were reluctantly saying goodbye to an old friend.

Lu Chenzhou waved his hand and gently said,

"See you next year."

A chubby little swallow like a small chirp landed in Lu Chenzhou’s palm.

One man, one bird, both with eyes as clear as mirrors.

Their yearning for Martial Arts, their longing for freedom.

At this moment, man and swallow shared a mutual understanding.

Therefore, Lu Chenzhou would not imprison these swallows.

The swallow in a golden cage is no longer a swallow.

The little chirpy soared into the clouds, following the flock, disappearing into the horizon.

Lu Chenzhou retracted his gaze, feeling unexpectedly a sense of loss, because of the special effects of the swallow master, he had a special affection for swallows as creatures.

He continued to practice his Fist Technique, feeling unfulfilled.

As if in a trance,

His spirit traveled through time-honored changes, arriving at a place where heaven and sea fused, with myriad sails by the capsized boat, and a thousand trees blooming in front of the sick tree; everywhere in the world, swallows yearning for freedom, and he was one of them, stretching his body at will, soaring high, understanding the rhythm of the wind, chasing the footsteps of the sea breeze, never stopping.

"Swallow Form is light, agile, and what lies beneath these appearances is freedom, resilience, the unchanging devotion to the annual north-south migration, unswerving initial intentions!"

Lu Chenzhou seemed to have an epiphany.

He traveled through mountains and seas, through crowds of people. At last, riding a straight ascending heavenly wind, he pierced through layers of clouds, arriving above the clouds.

He saw the Vermilion Bird swallowing the sunset glow, saw the Golden Winged Great Peng circling, saw the colorful Peacock flying southeast, saw the Immortal Cranes crying in the clouds, he continued to ascend, passing beyond the nine heavens, reaching an infinitely high place, and saw a divine bird covering the sun:

The Phoenix!

It perched atop the Parasol tree, grooming its feathers, surrounded by a flock of hundreds of birds, and among this flock, there was a pitch-black Xuan Yan.

It was not large, insignificant compared to the Phoenix.

The Xuan Yan circled around the Phoenix, its clear chirping resonating.

Lu Chenzhou looked around, as if realizing something:

"Among all Bird Forms in the world, the Phoenix is supreme, followed by the Eagle Form, Crane Forms, Vermilion Bird, and Peacock; the rest of the Bird Forms, no matter how many, cannot match their depth and breadth..."

Therefore, Swallow Form is not strong.

As far as Lu Chenzhou knew.

The master of the Swallow Form sect only had the strength of a Grandmaster.

No matter, he had arrived.

In a thought, Lu Chenzhou left the dreamlike place.

His Martial Arts Tree within his mind kept bringing him notifications.

He knew he had realized another Heavenly Heart Imprint.

The Swallow Form Imprint.

Moreover, his Swallow-shaped Boxing Principle had reached the Fourth Realm.

[Would you like to integrate completely?]

"Integrate completely!"

Lu Chenzhou continued to practice his Fist Technique; with the advancement of Swallow Form Fist Theory to the Fourth Realm, his Fist Technique carried an ineffable elusive quality, and vaguely, there was a hint of Phoenix Form’s presence.

He seemed to have another epiphany:

"Of all the Bird Forms in the world, aside from the four great forms of Eagle, Vermilion Bird, Crane, and Peacock, the rest like Swallow Form, Pheasant Form, Goose Form, Heron Form, and so on, all originate from Phoenix Form, and are closely related to it. Hence, mastering Swallow Form well would make it easier to later switch to learning Phoenix Form. With ’Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix,’ the ultimate goal of Bird Forms is still to learn the Phoenix Form."

The October breeze was cool and refreshing.

Ji Xuantong, who was relaxing, stared absently at the figure on the lake:

"Heavenly Heart Imprint..."

Old Ji walked back home with his hands behind his back.

Even his best, Swallow Form, was about to be caught up by his disciple.

Relaxing, relaxing my ass.

Principal Wang stood on the balcony, looking at the lake and said with a smile:

"The Swallow Form power is growing, with Tiger Swallow Dual Forms paired with Spear Skill, it’s versatile for close and long-range combat, both ferocious and delicate, advancing to attack and retreating to flee, it’s a fine routine."

Beside him, Wang Xian said:

"When the junior brother finishes his search for victories and ancient wisdom, breaking the Second Shackles won’t be far off."

...

On the lake,

Lu Chenzhou’s nimble and agile Fist Wind and movement techniques stirred up gusts of lake breeze, and with ripples spreading across the water, he seemed to float above the world, supremely detached.

Finishing his training,

Another complex and Mysterious leaf of True Skill Level formed on the Martial Arts Tree.

[Please name the new Martial Arts]

After a moment of thought, Lu Chenzhou said:

"Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix, Xuan Yan Soaring to the Heavens... Let’s call it ’Xuan Yan Feitian Fist.’"
