Entertainment King:I Can Extract Skills from the Movies

Chapter 47: Chapter 47: "Ah Sheng, Save Me!"



Du Sheng calmed his thoughts and looked at the next reward.

"Black Silkworm Robe? Not bad."

"In the original story, it was impervious to swords and spears. While its defensive range is limited and might not withstand bullets or shockwaves in modern times, it's still a valuable treasure."

"Murong Fu's sword and a box of gold leaves... The former can be sold as an antique, and the latter, weighing about two pounds, is definitely worth a fortune!"

Du Sheng was quite pleased as he evaluated the items.

The sword was crafted with exquisite craftsmanship. Measuring about 82 centimeters in length, its blade featured decorative silver inlays resembling flames, while the hilt was adorned with wave-like patterns. A truly handsome piece.

A few years ago, a general's sword from the Song Dynasty fetched millions at an auction in Zhejiang. Even if Murong Fu's sword wasn't worth as much, half its value would still amount to tens of thousands—a substantial sum!

As for the two pounds of gold leaves, with the current market price of 100 yuan per gram, they were worth nearly 100,000 yuan.

A significant haul indeed.

The earnings from this single reward far surpassed two months of grueling filming!

Of course, no reward comes without effort.

Without achieving a "Good" rating plus the doubling bonus, he wouldn't have received these prizes.

Now that the doubling bonus had been used up, Du Sheng knew he'd need an even greater performance next time for such rewards.

Fortunately, with his recently upgraded acting skills, this didn't seem too daunting.

But what delighted him most was the final prize:

Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill!

Among all the martial arts and internal cultivation techniques in Jin Yong's novels, this one undoubtedly ranked in the top ten!

Golden Wheel Monk, having trained it to the ninth level, could fight against Master Yideng, Zhou Botong, and Huang Yaoshi in the Valley of Absolute Love without losing ground.

With the power of nine dragons and nine elephants, none of the three dared to take his attacks head-on. It took all three masters working together to subdue him, showcasing the overwhelming might of Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill!

If someone mastered all thirteen levels, wouldn't they essentially achieve immortality? How terrifying would their power be?

A question arose in Du Sheng's mind:

"How did Golden Wheel Monk's ultimate technique end up in Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, being learned by Murong Fu?"

He searched his memory and came up with a plausible explanation.

After being drained of his internal energy by Duan Yu's Northern Darkness Divine Skill, Jiumozhi found enlightenment through hardship. Upon learning of the Small Formless Skill hidden in Mandala Manor from Wang Yuyan, he mastered it and redefined his martial path.

He later became a devout monk and, during a sermon, gifted this skill to Wang Yuyan out of gratitude.

At the time, Wang Yuyan was still by Murong Fu's side, making it plausible for him to learn it—even if he hadn't mastered it.

"Could this redefined martial art by Jiumozhi be Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill?"

Du Sheng thought deeply and arrived at two points:

1. The timeline fits.

The events of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils occur during the Northern Song Dynasty. According to The Return of the Condor Heroes, a high monk in Tibet mastered the ninth level of Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill during this period. That monk was likely Jiumozhi.

2. The origin of the skill matches.

Golden Wheel Monk once mentioned that the founder of this martial art nearly perished while testing the tenth level. Similarly, Jiumozhi encountered life-threatening setbacks while experimenting with the tenth level.

Regardless of the specifics, this unparalleled protective skill from the Tantric sects was now Du Sheng's!

Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill: Level 1 / Blue (100/1000)

In the original work, this technique had thirteen levels and was both an internal and external martial art. It came with the Prajna Palm, a technique as domineering and powerful as its name.

Each level granted the strength of one dragon and one elephant. Upon reaching the tenth level, the user possessed the power of ten dragons and ten elephants, capable of shattering stones and breaking monuments with ease.

As a dual-cultivation art, its external aspect resembled body-hardening techniques like Golden Bell Shield and Iron Cloth.

It provided enhanced durability and the ability to heal and recover quickly from injuries.

With such comprehensive features, it rightfully earned its place among Jin Yong's top ten martial arts.

"Truly exceptional! It's a shame it's only blue-tier," Du Sheng sighed as he absorbed the skill's insights.

Still, this disappointment was fleeting.

He reasoned that if he could obtain a blue-tier Shackle Card, there was a good chance he'd get a purple one in the future.

Breaking through was only a matter of time.

Even as a partial version, it could still reach the seventh level, maintaining its internal and external cultivation benefits.

Du Sheng was satisfied, chalking up his lingering frustration to human greed.

"Not bad—this filming effort wasn't in vain!"

With anticipation, he looked forward to his next project:

"Snowflake Goddess Dragon."

"As a romance-centric wuxia drama, my role as the second male lead will give me significantly more screen time than in Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils.

"Plus, with my enhanced acting skills, the reward multipliers will..."

After waiting ten minutes by the roadside, Wang Yaoyang finally flagged down a taxi.

As he loaded their belongings into the trunk, he turned to ask, "Sheng-ge, should we grab a bite first or head straight to the airport?"

As Du Sheng's assistant, Wang Yaoyang was competent at handling logistics.

Having checked the flight schedules earlier, he had booked a late-night flight back to Zhejiang.

The Snowflake Goddess Dragon crew was filming in Hengdian, and they needed to join them soon.

"Ah Sheng, save me!"

Just as Du Sheng got into the car and was about to answer, his phone rang.

The voice on the other end was raspy and weak, as if the caller had suffered severe injuries.

Even the taxi driver glanced over, his expression curious.

"Ah Wei?" Du Sheng paused, instantly recognizing the voice.

"You're hurt? What happened?"

The caller was indeed Ma Yaowei.

Between labored breaths, he confessed, "Sanwan Road, Starlight Bar—it's run by Burmese folks. They've got me locked up..."
