The First Master of the First Volume of the Martial World Chapter 53: The Mountain Gate is Established

  That night, Yue Hang received the handwritten foundation of internal strength and the knife method secret book of Wu Hu Duan Men Dao brought by his own son. When Yue Hang saw these two things, he finally understood how thick the heavy gift spoken by Ye Wen was.

  Although the internal skill method clearly states that the basic internal skill is only roughly read, Yue Hang knew that this set of internal skill cultivation methods is much more clever than his original Tu Na Fa, and it is a true internal skill method, not just a big road goods that can only strengthen the body and cultivate Qi.

  As for that set of knife techniques, he can already determine that it is much more exquisite than the family-transmitted knife technique he originally practiced. If he masters this martial art, his progress will likely take a big leap forward.

  Looking at the two sets of secret recipes in his hand, Yue Hang looked at his son who would be sleeping with him tonight: "Does your master have anything to say to you?"

  Yue Ning nodded and pointed to the knife method, saying: "Master said that this knife method will be used as a martial art for excellent outer door disciples in the future. If Father practices it well, he can instruct his own Shu Mountain disciples in the spear bureau!"

  As soon as this was said, Yue Hang understood that the knife method Ye Wen mentioned while eating was actually the one he was holding in his hand. This made him feel extremely surprised. He had thought that the knife method that Shu Shan Sect was going to teach was just ordinary goods, but unexpectedly it was such a wonderful martial art. If his own spear masters practiced this knife method, the chief spear master would be in trouble.

  The escort industry is also a world that emphasizes the strong preying on the weak, and there have even been cases where an escort's martial arts skills greatly improved, surpassing those of the head escort, who was then killed and replaced by the former.

  Yue Hang was confident that his own martial arts skills were enough to subdue everyone, even if these dart masters received guidance from the Shu Mountain Sect, it was impossible for them to surpass him in a short period of time. And as time went on, his son had already grown up, and by then, there would be no problem at all. After all, the most that the dart bureau could do was some outer disciples of the Shu Mountain Sect, whose status was far inferior to that of his own son.

  But he didn't expect that Ye Wen would actually take out this set of martial arts to teach, if it wasn't for Ye Wen giving him these two secret books, he would really suspect that the Shu Mountain Sect was taking advantage of the opportunity to rob his Yue Shan Escort Agency.

  However, the two books in his hands dispelled such doubts. If Ye Wen really had that intention, he would not have handed over these two sets of martial arts to him under any circumstances.

  Yue Ning thought for a moment, then said: "However, this basic internal skill cannot be passed on to others. Master said that if Father has memorized the contents of the secret book, he should return it to me, and then I will return it to Master!"

  Yue Hang immediately understood that this basic internal skill was an internal training method of the Shu Mountain Sect. Although he had already stood on the same front line as the Shu Mountain Sect, he was not a disciple of the Shu Mountain Sect after all, and wasn't even considered an outer sect disciple. Being able to obtain this internal skill was also Ye Wen's way of appeasing him, telling him that he had no intention of cultivating his own trusted followers within Yue's agency to overthrow his leadership over the Yue Shan Agency.

  Because as long as Yue Hang has practiced the basic internal skills and Wu Hu Duan Men Dao, the disciples cultivated by Ye Wen are likely to find it very difficult to surpass Yue Hang in a short period of time, even if they have Ye Wen's guidance on Mount Shu - after all, Yue Hang's cultivation is already at that level, and the speed at which he grasps these martial arts is not something that these young people who only understand superficial skills can compare with.

  Apart from this, Ye Wen is also showing off his sect's strength. A set of internal skill incantations clearly writes two basic words, so even the stupidest person would understand that this is just a mind method used by Mount Shu Sect to help their disciples enter the door, they must have more advanced martial arts to cultivate excellent disciples.

  Yue Hang thought about it, and he valued the Shu Shan Sect even more. He wouldn't have any other thoughts. Moreover, his son was now the chief disciple of the Shu Shan Sect, so whether for his own sake or for his son's, he could only stand on the same front line as the Shu Shan Sect forever.

  He nodded and said to his son, "Father understands!" After finishing speaking, he flipped open the booklet with the internal skill formula written on it, carefully reciting it, determined that this night would not sleep until he had memorized this set of internal skills.

  Fortunately, the basic internal skill mantra is not long, and it's not difficult to cultivate. Yuhang has a foundation, and there's no need for that most difficult step of sensing the qi. The subsequent cultivation was naturally effortless, and he memorized it clearly in just half a night. Afterwards, he continuously practiced and familiarized himself with the internal skill's route.

  When he opened his eyes, it was already the second half of the night. He saw that his son was also sitting there practicing qigong with him, looking almost identical to himself. Yue Hang was taken aback for a moment, and when his son opened his eyes, he immediately asked: "Were you also practicing this set of qigong just now?"

  Yue Ning nodded and said, "On the day I went up the mountain, Master knew that I had learned the method of expelling and absorbing Qi from my father, and already had a sense of Qi, so he directly passed on this set of basic internal skills to me, saying that it would be convenient for me to lay a good foundation for future cultivation!"

  His own son's words further confirmed his speculation, making Yue Hang feel amazed and delighted at the same time: "My own son is already practicing internal skills at such a young age, I don't know how much higher his starting point will be than mine? In the future, his achievements are likely to be boundless. My family says that we can't help but produce a truly powerful master with a reputation in the Jianghu!"

  He still remembers that at this age, he was still working hard to exercise his body, and what internal strength is, he didn't know at all. If it wasn't for himself walking the rivers and lakes later on and getting that basic method of breathing, I'm afraid he would have no chance with this profound thing called inner energy in this lifetime.

  It's already a good opportunity to get a real internal skill practice method at the age of 40, but his son has started practicing early and even earlier than himself by several days. As a father, he can indeed have high expectations for his son.

  On the second day, Yue Hang bid farewell to Ye Wen and others with a smile on his face, leading his own escort agency down the mountain. He also made an appointment with Ye Wen that when spring arrives, he will send ten young and agile escorts to pay homage to the outer gate of Shu Shan Sect.

  Ye Wen didn't rush, only saying: "Wait until after New Year's, I'll bring Ning'er to visit in person, and we can talk then!"

  Yue Hang nodded in agreement, saying that Ye Wen would need to properly instruct the two new disciples he had recently taken on, as well as his own junior fellow disciple. He thought Xu Xian was a bookworm who didn't know martial arts, so he needed to be taught from scratch. But what he didn't know was that Ye Wen was thinking to himself: "Now you've sent these people over, but I don't even have anywhere for them to live!"

  The Shu Shan Sect is currently busy building various houses, and the priority is to build a place for the disciples to live. However, building a house is not something that can be done overnight, especially since Ye Wen has many requirements for the house, such as good ventilation and warmth, which has been driving these workers crazy.

  Even some craftsmen whispered privately: "My old Meng has been building houses for people for over 30 years, and this is the first time I've encountered an employer with so many strange requirements!"

  Others only said: "Did your previous employers give you so much silver? If not, just be honest and work hard. This trip is done, let alone the New Year's, even next year's are earned together!"

  This sentence shut the mouths of many complainers, although the work was a bit more troublesome, but the pay was sufficient, and no one wanted to give up such a good opportunity to make money, so these people just said a few words with their mouths, and there were no bad actions.

  More importantly, the food on Mount Shu was not bad at all. The meals arranged by Ye Wen were not only sufficient in quantity but also rich in flavor, with three meals a day and even fish and meat for lunch. As a result, no one wanted to give up this good life anymore. Although they chatted non-stop, their hands did not slow down, and the shape of the Shu Mountain Sect's mountain gate residence gradually emerged, no longer as empty as before.

  During the New Year, Ye Wen gave these craftsmen a few days off to return home and reunite with their families. After seeing their families and sending them money for winter expenses, these craftsmen worked even more vigorously. As a result, before spring arrived, Mount Shu's sect had been completely renovated and was now barely distinguishable from those famous large sects in the Jianghu.

  The main hall, the back hall, the side hall, the training square, the training room, and the accommodation area have all been built and are located in different areas according to their uses.

  Ye Wen and Ning Ruxue's residence has also been rebuilt, no longer a connected house, but an independent courtyard. Ye Wen lives in the main house, with Ning Ruxue and Xu Xian's residences on either side, somewhat like a traditional Chinese quadrangle courtyard.

  Apart from this, Zhao Shu's residence has also been rebuilt, and the location of the kitchen has been replanned. Even considering that there will be many disciples in the future, a larger and more perfect dining hall was specially built. However, at present, only outer door disciples and miscellaneous servants come here to eat, so it seems a bit empty. As for Ye Wen and some close disciples, they still use a small kitchen specifically for cooking for these people and a dedicated dining hall.

  As the number of miscellaneous workers increased, the vegetable garden originally opened up by Mount Shu Sect was renovated again and its area expanded significantly. Every day, apart from cooking and cleaning, the miscellaneous workers would come to take care of the vegetables here, which would become one of the main sources of food for the disciples of Mount Shu Sect. Ye Wen attaches great importance to this place, but for now it's still winter, so although the vegetable garden is ready, it hasn't been put into use yet.

  No matter what, Ye Wen's Shu Shan Sect has undergone a tremendous change compared to last year. What makes Ye Wen even more satisfied is that his internal skill cultivation has made significant progress in these few months. This point has puzzled him for a while, and he secretly suspects whether there is something special about Shu Shan that prevents the situation of stagnant progress when cultivating internal skills here.

  It's just that this speculation is unfounded and cannot be verified, it can only be slowly verified through long-term observation, so there's no hurry. As for external skills, he finally practiced the Mian Zhang to the point of being proficient, and can now truly use it against enemies. Next, he only needs to slowly get familiar with and understand this set of palm techniques.

  It was actually Xu Xian, who had been busy cultivating his inner strength for the past few months and seemed to have forgotten about teaching Ye Wen the Soft Palm technique. However, since he didn't bring it up, Ye Wen wouldn't ask either. At this moment, he gazed at his two disciples in front of him, pondering how to plan their cultivation paths, and couldn't care less about anything else.
