Chapter 261: Chapter 73 Speculations on the Heavenly Son’s Qi Observation Skill

"Pure Yang Finger."

Twenty years before the start of the original story, Zhu Wushi had defeated Gu Santong by half a move with the "Pure Yang Finger," resulting in Gu Santong’s devastating defeat and confinement in the ninth layer of the Heavenly Prison for twenty years.

And now, as the guardian BOSS, Zhu Wushi had twenty more years of time than when he defeated Gu Santong.

So, Qing Yu lost, and he lost miserably.

The finger force of the "Pure Yang Finger" penetrated his heart, and his blood sprayed onto the Heavenly Gang Qi Shield, turning the pale white vigorous air shield into a blood-red color.

Then, the surrounding scenery faded away, and Qing Yu was sent out of the Inheritance Space.

"Hiss—"

Back in reality, Qing Yu pressed his pounding left chest with lingering fear.

Unlike when he died immediately after Dongfang Bubai pierced his brain with a silver needle, the piercing through his heart allowed Qing Yu, as a martial artist, to survive a bit longer than ordinary people.

In that little bit of extra time, Qing Yu truly experienced the agony of clinging to life at the brink of death.

Moreover, the heart is one of the most important organs in the human body, its main function being to provide the power for blood circulation, delivering blood to every part of the body.

After losing his heart, his blood lost its driving force and fell into a stagnant state—a feeling that Qing Yu truly couldn’t forget even if he wanted to.

From the first contact, the level of Zhu Wushi’s formidable nature was simply at a hell level. Not counting his defense with the "Heavenly Gang Child Skill," Qing Yu only allowed him to make one move, a move that sealed his fate.

However, rather than feeling fear after witnessing Zhu Wushi’s terrifying strength, Qing Yu revealed a smile filled with anticipation.

"Zhu Wushi indeed did not disappoint me, and only such a formidable opponent can push me to the limit and allow me to..."

Qing Yu reached out to pick up a book lying beside him.

A simple book, with a light blue cover and ordinary material; such styled books were commonplace in larger city bookstores.

But opening the book, the first page that caught his eye was far from ordinary—it was jade-colored, resembling thin jade slabs, yet lacking the rigidity hardness typical of jade, wedged at the beginning of this booklet.

Initially, by the Cuige River, Qing Yu divided the "Heavenly Calculation and Earthly Measurement" into two parts, with the thinner section taken by the Demon Young Master, which contained the ’Heavenly Calculation’ inheritance; however, that section was not complete. The most important secret techniques of the ’Secret Volume of Heavenly Calculation’ still remained with Qing Yu, including these few jade-colored pages.

What the Shadow King wanted was the ’Geodetic Secret Manual,’ so these few pages of Heavenly Mechanism secret techniques were left for Qing Yu to keep.

Of course, Qing Yu didn’t open the book for these few pages.

He removed the jade-colored pages and put them aside; next came the real content of the book. And the name of this book was "Geodetic Secret Volume·Copy Version."

Indeed, even though he handed over the ’Geodetic Secret Manual’ he had snatched, this did not mean that Qing Yu did not need it. To be precise, even before his interaction with Luo Yan, Qing Yu had already learned from the Shadow Pavilion that Elder Suan Tian’s inheritance was divided into ’Heavenly Calculation’ and ’Geodetic’ parts.

Like the Shadow King, Qing Yu’s goal too was the ’Geodetic Secret Manual.’

Because for the inheritance of calculating heavenly mechanisms, Qing Yu already had the ’Astrology Law’ of the Yin Yang Family, and he regarded the profound and extensive knowledge of Yin Yang Technique as no less than that of the ’Secret Volume of Heavenly Calculation.’ Given this, it was better to divert the hot potato and draw the Demon Young Master’s attention away from himself by letting him attract the attention of the worldly society.

And the reason for grabbing the ’Geodetic Secret Manual’ was mainly to recreate a martial arts technique in this world—one that the system could not provide: "Heavenly Son’s Qi Observation Skill."

With ease and humor, the "Heavenly Son’s Qi Observation Technique" could kill. The "Heavenly Son’s Qi Observation Technique" was a divine skill that Gu Shentong, the king of East Island, was forced to develop while fleeing for his life from Wan Guicang’s deadly pursuit.

However, divine skills do not come from thin air; even if Gu Shentong was being chased to the point of fleeing, it would be impossible for him to create a martial arts technique that had no connection to his previous learning. Otherwise, why would it be the "Heavenly Son’s Qi Observation Technique" and not a technique for escaping with one’s life?

The "Heavenly Son’s Qi Observation Technique" must be a martial arts technique that Gu Shentong created by summarizing his past learning, encapsulating the great achievements of his lifetime. And among the martial arts of East Island, the skill most closely related to the insight-focused "Heavenly Son’s Qi Observation Technique" was undoubtedly the "Turtle Mirror."

Before the appearance of the "Heavenly Son’s Qi Observation Technique," the "Turtle Mirror," created by the uniquely gifted Hua Jingyuan, was undoubtedly the most magical and formidable martial arts technique of East Island. If Gu Shentong wished to summarize his past learning, he naturally needed a mainstay, and the "Turtle Mirror," as the most formidable of martial arts techniques, was undoubtedly a highly suitable mainstay.

Moreover, given the situation at that time, with Gu Shentong being relentlessly pursued by Wan Guicang, the insight-focused "Turtle Mirror" would have undoubtedly been the technique he used most frequently and was most adept at under the pressure of life and death.

The combination of various circumstances led to the emergence of the divine skill "Heavenly Son’s Qi Observation Technique" in the world.

And now, Qing Yu was about to replicate Gu Shentong’s situation.

He had the "Turtle Mirror," and with the Void Eye, Qing Yu even had a higher starting point than Gu Shentong at the time. The inheritance from the East Island came from the Heavenly Mechanism Palace and was likely also involved in astronomy, geography, Heavenly Mechanism Numerology, Dragon Seeking and Acupointing, etc. With the ’Astrology Law’ and ’Geodetic Secret Manual,’ coupled with the profound research of the Yin Yang Family in this area, this was also settled.

For other related issues of Primordial Energy circulation, Qing Yu also believed he was second to none.

Finally, a suitable opponent, or rather, an enemy that pushed him to a situation with no way out, was now in hand.

Although aware that he would not die, and there might be some flaws, dying a few more times would always lead to some gains.

Moreover, Zhu Wushi’s True Qi was much more profound than Qing Yu’s, his martial arts varied, and his absorption of countless experts’ skills made him lack weaknesses in all aspects. Such an all-rounder, in some ways, was so similar to Wan Guicang; even the strategizing aspect was taken into account.

Under these circumstances, having made so many preparations, even if it was ultimately not possible to create the "Heavenly Son’s Qi Observation Technique," similar martial arts techniques would certainly not be scarce.

Before that, however, the ’Geodetic Secret Manual’ had to be mastered; not necessarily to become a new generation of Feng Shui master, but at the very least, to reach a respectable level in observation skills.

At least, one must have all the hardware in place before working on the software.

One could foresee that, for a long time to come, Qing Yu might be in a state of secluded cultivation and would disappear from the worldly society.

But that was fine too; now Gong Ziyu was not to the point of having enemies everywhere in the worldly society, but there were certainly no shortage of people who had deep-seated grudges against him.

The Zhenwu Sect need not be mentioned, and from the Demon Path’s Doomed Hall, a Jue Jian had died; in recent days, they had been searching intently. As an established assassin organization, Doomed Hall had no lack of skill in finding people, and they were also extremely familiar with various assassin techniques.

Luckily, all the assassins of the Azure Dragon Association were Qing Yu’s puppets; he could just shove them into some cave, feed them to prevent starvation, and let them train all day. If it were an ordinary assassin organization, maybe all their subordinates would have already been killed by Doomed Hall by now.
