The Other Side of Deep Space

Chapter 40: Chapter 40: Paving a way for the old art



The rain was still falling, and the forest was dark. The black hound fell to the ground and trembled. It had not died completely. Its vitality was tenacious, but it was not enough to hurt people.

The man in black stood opposite, swaying his body and quickly connected the broken bones. He did not hide his shock and said, "Although the Golden Body Technique is very powerful, few people practice it. First, the effect is very slow, and it often takes decades to achieve success. Second, if there is a slight mistake, the body will have major problems and hurt itself."

He stared at Wang Xuan. The other party's Golden Body Technique had clearly been practiced to the late fourth level, which would take at least more than 30 years, but the other party was only in his early twenties.

"How did you practice it?" His eyes were bright and his heart was difficult to calm down. He had a strong desire and wanted to know urgently.

"Who are you killing me for?" Wang Xuan asked calmly. He did not know the man in black. The other party was in his fifties and they had never met before.

He believed that there was someone behind the man in black who was killing him for someone else, and he was still not the real boss.

The man in black looked calm and said, "If you beat me today, don't investigate this matter anymore. Let's stop here. I was the one who asked the Gray Blood Organization to kill you, and I was the one who did it myself. You can think that I am the mastermind behind the scenes, and in fact, it is true."

A faint golden light flashed in the depths of Wang Xuan's eyes. This was a manifestation of the success of the Golden Body Technique, which made the man in black more eager to know how he got to this point.

The man in black did not want to practice the Golden Body Technique, but wanted to find out if there were any secret methods and shortcuts. If he really wanted to find out, the old technique might shine again in this era.

He practiced the old technique for decades and came to this point with difficulty. He was already a rare master in this field, but he deeply understood that after reaching this level, the road was almost over.

Wang Xuan was very cold and said, "You come to kill me, but you are unwilling to reveal the person behind me. Why should I tell you?"

The man in black stretched his body and loosened his muscles and bones, saying, "As a person who practices the old art, I am only reminding you kindly because I see that you have come to this point at such a young age. If you leave here alive in the end, it's fine if you find out about me. The matter should be almost over here. You should live your life peacefully and don't think about revealing anything. No one should target you again."

Wang Xuan's anger was rising in his heart. Although he was low-key and didn't like to cause trouble on weekdays, he was attacked and killed again and again like this, and in the end he had to endure it and not take the initiative to investigate. Only in this way could he stay safe and alive?

The man in black sighed: "It's really not easy for us to follow the path of the old art, especially in this era, the road is completely exhausted and will be completely replaced by the new art. I am very unwilling to accept this. I hold unrealistic ideas and want to find a way out. I am obsessed with it to the point of being almost crazy."

It can be seen that he is not pretending, but he really has some feelings and has a deep obsession with the path of the old art.

The man in black did not rush to act, and continued: "Since I learned that a legendary scripture in our field of old art appeared, but was shelved and was just a collection of cultural relics by others, I couldn't help but want to get close to it, hoping to get a glimpse of the true meaning from it, and find out the secret of the immortal."

Wang Xuan did not speak, but listened quietly.

"So I approached him on purpose, and I knew that someone in that family was dissatisfied with you and wanted to kill you, so I took the initiative to approach him and tactfully said that as a scholar and professor, I could 'educate' you, and at the same time hinted that I wanted to take a look at the ancient book in his house."

After hearing this, Wang Xuan frowned, thinking back to the people he knew, he still couldn't think of who they were, he had never had any deep hatred with anyone.

Until now, he didn't know who he had offended and had to kill him.

At the same time, he was also a little surprised that the man in black was actually a scholar and a professor, and his identity seemed to be a bit complicated.

The man in black seemed to see what he was thinking, and said: "There was a time when the old art was not in decline. As a researcher of the old art, I also taught some students in the university of Xinxing, and sometimes I was invited to explain how to keep healthy to some old guys with unusual identities. It can be said that I was still famous at that time."

He smiled self-deprecatingly and shook his head again.

Wang Xuan understood that before the new technique was fully announced and rose to prominence, the old technique had indeed been excavated for a period of time. At least the pre-Qin bamboo slips in the old land had been divided up by the chaebols and major research institutes.

In the past few years, the new star hoped to trigger supernatural powers through the old technique and penetrate the new technique, so it was normal for the man in black to become a guest of honor for some chaebols. It was not surprising that he had the identity of a scholar and professor.

"That day, after I expressed my opinion, the man really took out the only copy of the sutra in his home and showed me the first page. I was immediately attracted because I knew it was a priceless treasure, consistent with the path I have been exploring for so many years. It directly broke through a layer of window paper for me and opened a new window. You know, it was just the first page, and it told all my hard work and pursuit for most of my life. How amazing will the follow-up be? It fell into the hands of those people, and it was like a pearl covered in dust. Although they studied it, they couldn't practice it at all. And I was more and more eager, because I was sure that the legendary scripture would bloom again in the most brilliant era when the old art was exhausted."

After saying this, the man in black had a fiery look in his eyes, as if there was a flame jumping, and he was very excited.

"Unfortunately, I only read the first page!"

Until the end, he gradually regained his composure, the fire in his eyes extinguished, and then he stared at Wang Xuan again, saying: "I seem to have found something more amazing in you. Have you been practicing the Golden Body Technique since childhood, and there is a mysterious shortcut to take, so you have reached the fourth level at this age, or is it more amazing than I imagined?"

Two terrifying beams of light burst out from his eyes, and he said: "According to my investigation, your Golden Body Technique secret book was given to you by Zhou Mingxuan at a party. You can practice to the fourth level in such a short time? There must be a big problem!"

Wang Xuan was very calm and said nothing. In this era, no one can enter the inner scene.

In ancient times, people who followed the old technique path needed the help of pre-Qin alchemists or the guidance of patriarchs to enter the inner scene after triggering super senses for the first time.

And the first time Wang Xuan entered, he was not guided by others, but stepped into that field by himself. If he told others, it would shock people who knew the inside story.

"I was a little crazy because of my obsession. For the sake of the legendary scripture, I was willing to kill you to exchange for that scripture. Now think about it, we who follow the old way of magic can't see hope, which is a bit sad."

The man in black sighed, then stared at Wang Xuan and said, "So, I advise you not to pursue it anymore. That person is likely to be angry and want to kill you. He may not pay attention to this matter afterwards. Just pretend that nothing happened. Some people and forces are far beyond the reach of people like you and me. After all, this is no longer the pre-Qin era when the alchemists bloomed with the light of immortality."

Suddenly, his breath changed, his eyes shot out two rays of light, his internal organs actually resonated, and a thunderous sound was heard. The blood in his body gave birth to a faint glow. He seemed to have a layer of halo all over him. He disappeared from the spot in an instant, and rushed towards Wang Xuan at an extremely fast speed.

Although Wang Xuan felt that this person was obsessed with the old arts and was not pretending, he did not relax his vigilance. Human nature is complex. Although the man in black was obsessed with the old arts, he was not necessarily pure and kind.

At least, his black hound was severely injured and almost died, but he did not show any ripples. It was obvious that he was very hard-hearted.

Boom!

Wang Xuan quickly dodged and fully improved his golden body skills to fight against this person.

At the place where he disappeared, the man appeared. With a thud, he stepped out of the ground with his feet. The force was really terrifying, even more amazing than not long ago.

The man in black breathed heavily, his five internal organs thundered, and a faint light bloomed in his blood, penetrating his body, causing a faint halo to appear outside his body, which was very strange, causing his strength to increase by a large margin.

Wang Xuan was greatly shocked and guessed that this was most likely what was recorded on the first page of the scripture that the man in black was craving.

Bang bang bang!

Wang Xuan avoided the attack and hit his arms and body from the side. Even so, he felt the opponent's strength was ridiculous.

At this moment, the man in black was somewhat invincible. The brief contact caused the nails of Wang Xuan's ten fingers to be torn off. Blood kept flowing, his arms were about to break, and his finger bones were in great pain. Even the Golden Body Technique could not stop it!

The situation was quite critical. Wang Xuan was hit several times in the successive collisions and flew out. He coughed up blood and was about to be severely injured.

Looking at the state of the man in black, Wang Xuan immediately thought of a certain physical technique he had practiced before. The five-page golden book left by Zhang Daoling, he had practiced the first picture in the inner scene, it was just a starting move, and he did not think it could be so powerful at the time.

Now, when he saw the power of the man in black, he immediately felt and touched a similar power, which was related to stimulating the activity of the internal organs.

Boom!

Wang Xuan fought desperately, blood dripping from his mouth, and fully activated the physical skills recorded in the picture, causing his five internal organs to resonate violently. At this critical moment of life and death, he felt something unusual. When his body was about to be unable to bear it and his five internal organs were violently vibrating to the point of breaking, a new force emerged from his body and expanded rapidly in his flesh and blood.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

He felt that his heart was beating so powerfully, and his blood was stimulated like a long river, with a faint golden glow. He blocked the fierce attack of the man in black, and his arms and finger bones were finally saved and not broken.

In the end, the man in black couldn't hold on any longer. After his five internal organs resonated, he coughed up blood. With a bang, he was hit by Wang Xuan and flew more than ten meters away. His chest collapsed, and a terrible fist hole appeared, and even his back was transparent.

In addition, his five internal organs had just resonated with too strong a secret force, and now they were about to collapse. With cracks appearing one after another, he completely lost his fighting power and was about to die.

"I didn't expect that you had also practiced similar scriptures." He was bleeding from his mouth and nose, and finally sighed: "You are still so young, maybe there is some hope. If you can find a way for the old technique in the future..."

He couldn't speak anymore, his mouth was full of blood foam, he had difficulty breathing, and he was rapidly weakened.

Wang Xuan was also in a bad mood. Even though he quickly stopped the physical technique recorded in the golden book, he still felt severe pain in his five internal organs. He consumed too much energy and was a little exhausted. He didn't want to move at all.

But there were snipers nearby, and there was a huge danger.

Sure enough, he instantly felt trapped in a desperate situation of life and death. His eyebrows were in great pain, as if he was being held by a sharp weapon and was about to be pierced.

Was he being targeted and shot? !

Wang Xuan felt that he was not far from death. He had never been so close to death. He endured the severe pain and tried to turn over, avoiding a fatal disaster with difficulty. A bullet flew past and penetrated the place just now.

In an instant, he found that multiple parts of his body were in pain again. This was locked in all directions.

However, his condition was extremely bad and it was difficult for him to react immediately.

Was he going to die? He was very unwilling. The root method of the pre-Qin alchemist was automatically running in his body. He didn't want to give up and still wanted to try to turn over.

Boom!

Suddenly, he noticed something unusual. Time seemed to slow down. His body was covered by the shadow of death. Under the extreme pressure of almost suffocating, he fell into a super-sensory state.

Even so, could he escape this disaster? He was still not sure.
