Chapter 962: Chapter 646: Brief Explanation, Open-heartedness, Comprehending the Divine Skill Killer Move!

"However... you can take a look at this first."

With that, Qin Yue took out a small booklet without a cover and handed it to him.

Meng Chuan took it and examined it.

The booklet was only about the size of a palm, one finger thick, with six large handwritten cursive characters on the front: [Origin of the Five Qi - A Brief Interpretation].

As Meng Chuan flipped through it, he listened to Qin Yue’s explanation:

"This brief interpretation is the handwritten original left by King Xiang. The content is all about tracing back the roots of the five organs and five aggregates, along with King Xiang’s research insights on the Dao of the Five Elements, which is rather profound. Only those deeply versed in the Five Elements Fist could comprehend it."

Meng Chuan nodded, and as he flipped through it, he indeed felt as the other had described.

Even with his knowledge of the Five Elements Fist surpassing that of a grandmaster, he felt somewhat challenged.

However, some theories mentioned by King Xiang resonated with his own insights from studying the Five Elements Fist.

"Professor Li Zhenyue from your school has also borrowed it, and it provided him with significant insights. It’s likely you will also benefit from it."

Meng Chuan nodded and expressed his thanks. Such cultivation notes left by a martial arts luminary circulated within a limited circle and were extremely rare martial arts study materials, not even available in the Hidden Martial Pavilion of the United University.

Moreover, being related to the Five Elements, he believed that after delving into it for some time, his understanding of Five Elements martial principles could advance to a higher level, facilitating future learning of divine techniques with greater ease.

Apart from the senior Zhao Linyuan, the [Heavenly Abyss Tribulation Dispelling Harmonizing Dao Method] present in his mind, this method was the entire divine skill.

Other divine techniques require personal interpretation and understanding, with the difficulty of assessing related martial principles continuously increasing, since martial arts learning is an endless pursuit.

Meng Chuan flipped to the last five pages and suddenly his pupils contracted.

He discovered that the handwriting here was completely different from the previous sections.

Small characters densely packed, written in a messy manner.

Meng Chuan skimmed through, unable to see clearly many of the small characters, except for one line written extremely clearly—

"The spine of Heaven and Earth, the spirit of Primordial Chaos, the change of the Profound Void, the vigor of the Beginning, the foundation of the Ten Thousand Tribulations, the Five Elements evolve into five, the transformations of the Five Dao are endless, Golden Dao..."

"Collect the spirit!"

Meng Chuan snapped out of it, jolted awake from the text.

Only to hear Qin Yue’s voice like a great bell, awakening his immersed heart spirit.

Meng Chuan slowly closed the booklet, feeling it was burning hot:

"This is..."

Qin Yue nodded and said:

"Only the last five pages involve King Xiang’s research on the ’Dao’ changes of the Five Elements.

When you read this part, you must be cautious, and have someone beside you to constantly call you back to awareness; do not rashly delve into it.

Or perhaps, simply do not read it for now, and wait until your martial principles Recognize Heaven and Earth, and your heart spirit can accommodate the exploration of ’Dao’ before researching it."

Recognize Heaven and Earth’s martial principles is one of the fundamental requirements for breaking into the fifth tier to become a respected figure in human martial cultivation.

In other words, for most people, the study of ’Dao’ begins at the fifth stage, the Dao Realm.

Meng Chuan nodded, indicating that he would not read those last five pages for now, and would consider it when his martial principles progressed further.

His martial cultivation progressed far faster than his Qi blood growth.

He was only a step away from Recognize Heaven and Earth, possibly even earlier than breaking through to the fourth major limit of a grandmaster.

The power of the Heart Demon was too great, and the cooldown of his [Rebirth Nirvana] was still some time away from completing, so he couldn’t fall into its hands again...

Learning from setbacks, without Master Bai Bao assisting by his side, even if he "rose from the ashes," whether he could defeat the Heart Demon was still uncertain.

Seeing that Meng Chuan was obedient and not stubborn, Qin Yue felt very gratified inside.

He had seen too many martial arts geniuses overestimate their abilities and do things beyond their reach, regretting it for life.

Before leaving, Qin Yue reminded him once more:

"Xiaomeng, although the fall of the Whispering Mountains has greatly eased the tense situation for the world,

on a personal level, you still have to be on high alert.

Many Great Demons usually entrenched in the Demon Nest have secretly emerged, lurking among humans or colluding with the Demon Path, forming a wicked alliance.

You have already been placed on a kill order by the Demon Path, and now after killing the Divine Son of the Crocodile Dragon Race, you have many enemies, so be careful when you venture out in the future."

"Thank you for your concern, Commander Qin!"

Meng Chuan clasped his fists in gratitude, then asked,

"By the way, Commander, when should I return this booklet of King Xiang’s brief interpretation?"

Involving the theories of a Celestial King level strongman about the ’Dao,’ its value was no less than divine weapons or armor.

Qin Yue waved his hand and smiled:

"You can keep it for reading; there’s no rush to return it.

Our Qin family hopes you can gain more insights through the notes left by the ancestor and master the ancestral divine skill early, to pass it on to our Qin family."

Meng Chuan accepted the [Origin of the Five Qi - A Brief Interpretation] earnestly and expressed his gratitude:

"I will not let you down!"

...

The next morning, at the North Union University Lishan Campus.

In just half a day, the news of the True Inheritance returning to the mountain spread like wildfire throughout the school.

All the students of the United University were distracted from their cultivation, as the older students wanted to see whether the "strongest True Inheritance in history" still retained his glory.

The freshmen who had not met Meng Chuan upon enrollment last year also wanted to get closer to their senior brother, to meet the pride of Northern United University, the "living legend."

However, Meng Chuan did not make a large showing; he secluded himself in the courtyard of Huaqing Pool upon returning to the mountain.

He refused to meet outsiders and only celebrated briefly with friends on the mountain.

Zong Ping and others helped disperse the crowd at the entrance, and after a long time, order was finally restored.

"Brother Chuan is as popular as ever!"

This scene made Zong Ping recall the days back at Ping’an Middle School when every time Meng Chuan went to the Martial Arts Dojo to practice boxing, a large crowd would gather to watch.

In just a few years, Meng Chuan not only became a master among martial arts masters, achieving the status of a Land Immortal of the ancient martial era,

but also brought his past glory to the highest martial arts academy in the country!
