With Countless Qualities Bestowed Upon Me, I Shall Ultimately Become Immortal-Chapter 688 - 571: Divine Monk’s Accountability, The Impatient Monk, and Muscle-Tendon Cleansing!

Chapter 688: Chapter 571: Divine Monk’s Accountability, The Impatient Monk, and Muscle-Tendon Cleansing!

The expedition to the Demon Nest, although quite fruitful, did indeed cause some delay.

These days, he still needs to seize the time for cultivation and make up for his lack of understanding of Buddhist principles.

"Master Bai Bao, if there’s nothing else, I’ll go practice my skills first."

Master Bai Bao nodded, then said with a smile:

"A few days ago, I met Abbot Xuanmou, and when I mentioned you, the Martial Arts Great Saint was full of praise for you."

"That’s too kind..."

Meng Chuan stood still, with a hint of joy on his face.

To make a mark in front of the Great Saint is indeed a kind of honor.

"As for your desire to learn the two classics ’Tendon-Changing and Marrow-Cleansing’, I have spoken about it, too.

Here you go, this is the original Secret Technique, annotated by generations of high monks. Return it before leaving Shaolin.

Keep it well, a billion dollars couldn’t replace it if damaged."

"Understood..."

Master Bai Bao’s words were poking fun at the incident where Meng Chuan demolished the warrior monk hall...

Meng Chuan, somewhat embarrassed, took it and stored it in his belt badge, planning to study it later.

Before he turned to leave, he couldn’t help but ask:

"Master Bai Bao, did the Abbot say anything about seeing the one who represents the future?"

Under the Dragon Flower Tree, seeking the fruit of the Future Buddha.

Whether he needs to ’break the prediction’, Meng Chuan was also curious...

As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind suddenly blew in from outside, urging him to leave.

Meng Chuan, resigned, bid farewell to Master Bai Bao and vanished into the courtyard following the wind.

Watching his departing figure, Master Bai Bao laughed and cursed:

"Kid, still attached to appearances..."

Of course, he did ask for Meng Chuan, but...

Some things, once spoken by the Abbot, lose their ’mystical’ quality.

As the Buddhist Sect would say —

As Buddha said: Not to be spoken...

...

Back in his room, Meng Chuan pondered whether Master Bai Bao truly asked for him...

In the end, Meng Chuan thought:

"Even if what the Abbot saw wasn’t me, it can only mean he barely understood, he couldn’t see my efforts...

Of course, nor could he see through my ’cheating’..."

Forget it, don’t dwell on it.

Meng Chuan snapped back to reality, summoning with one hand.

He retrieved the two famed Shaolin Temple Secret Techniques given by Master Bai Bao.

Tendon-Changing and Marrow-Cleansing.

Both are thread-bound ancient books, very thin.

Flipping through them, they contained some obscure Buddhist sayings.

Thankfully, annotated by generations of high monks, with careful study, they could be understood.

This illustrates the importance of learning Buddhist philosophy.

Minus the numerous illustrations, each is only about a thousand words.

You must research yourself, expanding into ten thousand-word Secret Techniques to cultivate...

Of course, there’s a ’translated version’ on the Martial Arts Association website, essentially the so-called folk version.

This version is severely lacking, with less than one percent effective cultivation results.

It’s available only for those with inherently low-grade bone structure, to cultivate up to the lower-middle bone structure, but unfit even for ordinary bone structure.

Additionally, it requires extensive herbal support, or it remains ineffective.

This deficient version is mostly sought by wealthy parents wanting to defy fate after having a child with extremely poor talent...

He originally didn’t need it, because even without ’cheating’, he had a natural lower-middle bone structure... 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

But now, he possessed a postnatal superior bone structure.

To strive further towards top-tier bone structure, naturally he needed to learn the original versions.

The sky was darkening, with Principal Sui’s blazing furnace-like form hanging in the sky, faintly glowing.

"I wonder how much longer to break through to the Great Saint..."

He only regretted his inability to fly up close for a detailed view, forced to wait on the ground.

Shaking off his thoughts, Meng Chuan devoted himself vigorously to practicing the new techniques.

Get to work!

...

A week passed, and time slipped by quickly amidst the punches and kicks.

On this day, Meng Chuan casually practiced his fists.

The movements were expansive, evidently belonging to the Long Fist lineage.

Qi Strength flowed with his posture, trailing like an old man’s long eyebrows.

Streams of white vapors circled around him, with the stance finished, the panel radiating brilliance.

Meng Chuan steadied himself and sighed:

"Suddenly had an enlightenment experience [Dawn and Dusk Insight], unsuitable for practicing the Five Elements Fist on the mountain, so took advantage of this method..."

Second-class Shaolin Long Eyebrow Fist, 40% away from Limit Breaking.

Taking the enlightenment opportunity, he fully immersed himself in refining a skill.

Deal with Dragon Descendant Elder, no longer needing Arhat Fist to summon an Arhat.

Yet at least this method’s Limit Breaking yields an intermediate characteristic, related to lifespan.

Meng Chuan was naturally curious about its effects.

Outside, with the Limit Breaking of the skill, his eyebrows had some transformative feature, making them itch slightly...
