Chapter 19 Complete Edition of Heart Method

  Seven days have passed since the day of the entrance examination.

  Tang An's injury has recovered as before, and he still goes to the creek every day to temper his body, without any waste due to being poisoned and dissipating his internal energy.

  At night, he still habitually practiced internal skills in the house. Although the inner air was not full at first, he felt that his dantian was recovering day by day, and his heart was overjoyed. This opportunity to start again is not something everyone has the luck to encounter!

  So, Tang An worked even harder in his cultivation.

  Tang An was alone on Mount Shu, with no one to keep him company. Of course, no one would come to visit him either. During this time, he had fantasized about the strong-willed little girl coming to see him, but seven days had passed and there was no sign of her.

  "I never intended to be friends with her. She didn't come to visit me, nor was there anything strange about it. It's just that I don't know if I passed the assessment of being a disciple of the inner sect."

  For inner disciples, Tang An is a must-have. It's just that this time the situation is more complicated, he didn't participate in the final challenge match, and doesn't know if anyone will specifically challenge him by name.

  But just then, a shout came from outside, the voice was clear and familiar. Tang An listened carefully and immediately identified it, his heart also moved. That voice was that little girl's!

  "Tang An, are you there?"

  It's now Tang An's time for a post-meridian rest, after all the long-term cultivation is not only physically exhausting but also spiritually torturous. Relaxation and tension are both necessary for a long period of time. Moreover, Tang An's cultivation intensity has almost reached his physical limit.

  Tang An opened the door, and what entered his line of sight was a small red woolen hat, clearly visible, jumping around in the snowy ground. It seemed as if it were a fire spirit dancing in the white world.

  As she drew closer, it was a small face, timidly, in the wind and snow, frozen to some redness. She raised her head, those eyes black as lacquer, shining with a peculiar light, just like willow branches swaying in the spring breeze, gentle and agile, and also like seawater under the summer sun, full of pleasant vitality.

  It turned out that she was just an ordinary little girl, the cold face on the stage might have been just her disguise. At this moment, she inadvertently exposed her true nature.

  "Are you busy?"

  She saw Tang An, and a smile suddenly appeared on her face. She bounced into the house, brushing off the snowflakes from her body as soon as she entered the door. The fluttering white snowflakes scattered onto Tang An's face, bringing a hint of chill that made everything feel so real.

  "Master Big Brother asked me to inform you, please report to the [Trial Sword Hall] this afternoon on time. Congratulations!" Her tone was filled with joy, as if she were also happy for Tang An.

  As for Tang An's previous poisoning and loss of internal energy, she didn't know anything about it. If she knew, she would probably be shocked beyond measure at this moment. A person who has lost their internal energy, how could Master Cang Feng let him enter the inner sect?

  Entering the inner gate, what's the point of that? Can't cultivate internal energy, are you going to go inside and watch other disciples show off?

  She didn't understand, but Tang An somewhat understood the meaning behind Cang Feng's actions.

  Cang Feng's actions seemed more like making up for Tang An. On Mount Shu, the hierarchy was strict, and no matter where the inner disciples went, others had to treat them with respect.

  But Tang An thought again, perhaps Cang Feng was just trying to better monitor himself, so that he wouldn't reveal the poisoning incident.

  He wants to cover up this matter for Wang Feng! This is the condition he has set for himself, isn't it? If he accepts it himself, then this matter will be settled once and for all, and can never be brought up again! His own grievances will also have no way of being redressed!

  What a corrupt and decadent Shu Shan Sword Sect!

  Thinking of this, Tang An's face began to sink, but he knew that those things had nothing to do with the little girl in front of him, and his tone was still much colder.

  "Thank you. I still have some things to do, so I won't keep you here." After finishing speaking, Tang An also ignored the little girl's somewhat disappointed look and directly gave her the order to leave.

  The little girl heard Tang An's words and couldn't help but feel indignant. She let out a cold hum towards Tang An: "Even if you keep me, I'm not willing to sit!" After finishing speaking, the red small fluffy hat was swung away, she stubbornly turned her head and took big strides to leave, her feet heavily trampling on the snowy ground, making a series of "squeaky" sounds.

  Tang An sat alone on the cold bed, with a small package beside him. Inside were two pairs of kung fu shoes made by his mother when he left home. As for the golden silk armor, he had been wearing it close to his body since returning from the martial arts competition.

  In the past, it was because he had to go to the creek side to refine every time, and each time he came back with a bruised body. If he wore golden silk armor, it would have been worn out by now. That day when he went to compete, he also felt that if he wore golden silk armor, it would be like cheating, and his pride wouldn't allow him to do so.

  It was just unexpected that in the end he was outsmarted by Wang Feng. If he had been wearing his golden armor at the time, perhaps Wang Feng would not have had the chance...

  But life doesn't have that many ifs! This time's bitter lesson, Tang An vowed to himself that he would never make the same mistake again!

  "Shu Mountain, a place that harbors filth and corruption! A place like this would never impart its ultimate divine technique to an ignorant disciple like me. At first, I thought I could cultivate myself into a great master here, but now it seems like a fool's dream! Originally, I didn't know that my body still carried the gaming system. If only I had known earlier, why bother seeking far and wide!"

  Tang An was extremely regretful of entering Shu Mountain to learn the art. Now that he had already detoxified, he still had to pretend to be poisoned and exhausted, even his cultivation had to be done in secret, afraid of being discovered. It was just like stealing!

  But just then, a voice that thrilled him once again echoed in his mind.

  "Ding~ System Prompt: Inner Disciple of Shu Mountain's task completed. Please choose one item from the following as a reward."

  Item 1: Complete Edition of Shu Mountain's Entrance Mind Method, allowing the host to successfully cultivate up to the fifth realm of Tian Ren.

  Item 2, reputation 10 points. Reputation can be used to exchange for various treasures in the game system's Treasure Pavilion. The Treasure Pavilion currently only opens the first floor, and each item requires 10 reputation points to redeem.

  Item 3: Pei Yuan Dan (1 piece), can bring the host's essence, energy and spirit to the extreme of the current stage, directly impacting the next realm.

  In the treasure pavilion of the system, only various medicinal pills are sold now. Tang An searched all over but didn't see any trace of martial arts secret books. He had already cultivated the first three layers of the Shu Mountain entry mind method and could feel that this kung fu was actually very simple and troublesome to cultivate with low efficiency. If it weren't for his own small Pei Yuan Dan foundation, he might not have even won a single fight. He had always been distressed by the lack of family-transmitted secret books for cultivation, so when he saw the first item option, his heart suddenly became ecstatic.

  "Martial arts secret manual! The system actually sent out a martial arts secret manual, and it's even the complete version of Shu Shan's entry-level heart method, it's really too good!"

  Although this technique can only be cultivated to the fifth level of Tianren, the fifth level of Tianren is already a top-notch master in Jianghu. Among the tens of thousands of disciples in Shu Mountain, only a few hundred have cultivated to this realm. For Tang An, who has no techniques and can only cultivate secretly, this is currently the most needed thing.
