The Legend of the Medical Concubine

Chapter 384: Acquiring the Essence of the Secret Book

When they saw the warning on the note again, Bai Zixuan, Su Yiyun and Qin Mufeng looked at each other, and a hint of hesitation flashed in their eyes. But thinking about the current turbulent situation in the martial arts world, if their own strength can be strengthened, they will be more confident in dealing with many crises in the future. Moreover, since they have obtained the secret book, it seems to be a kind of opportunity in the dark.

Bai Zixuan frowned and said solemnly: "Although this secret book has risks, the situation is critical at the moment. If we can grasp the essence of it, perhaps we can better protect the justice of the martial arts world and rescue more people like Bai Lao in the future. But we must be careful of the danger of going astray."

Su Yiyun nodded in agreement, his eyes firm: "Brother Bai is right, but if the three of us supervise and guide each other, perhaps we can reduce the risk. Let's study the contents of this secret book carefully first and see if we can find some clues."

Qin Mufeng clenched his fists, his face determined: "What are you afraid of! Since God has let this secret book fall into our hands, it is a chance for us to become stronger. We just need to be careful, let's get started!"

So, the three of them sat together and spread out the "Hidden Moon Sect Secret Book" on the stone platform. The paper of the secret book exuded an ancient and old atmosphere, but the handwriting on it was clearly legible, recording various wonderful skills and methods of internal force cultivation.

Bai Zixuan spoke first, pointing to a description of the internal force in the secret book and said, "Look here, the route of the internal force is quite peculiar, and it is very different from what we have learned before. I think we should start by getting familiar with the internal force, but we must do it slowly and steadily, and stop if there is anything wrong."

Su Yiyun looked at it carefully and nodded slightly: "Yes, Brother Bai is right. I think the operation of this internal force seems to require a high degree of concentration. If there is any distraction, it may go wrong. Let's try to feel it first, and then tell each other about our experience."

Qin Mufeng could not wait to close his eyes and try to guide the internal force in his body according to the secret book. But before long, his brows were furrowed and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Seeing this, Bai Zixuan hurriedly reminded softly: "Brother Mufeng, don't be anxious, take your time. Stop if you feel something is wrong, don't force your luck."

Qin Mufeng slowly opened his eyes, wiped the sweat off his face, and said in annoyance, "Why is it so awkward when my internal energy is running? I just felt like there was a force running around, and I almost couldn't control it."

Su Yiyun comforted him, "Don't worry, this is just the beginning. Let's try a few more times and talk to each other about the problems we encounter. We will always find a trick."

Then, Su Yiyun also began to try, his expression focused, his brows slightly furrowed. After a while, he opened his eyes and said thoughtfully: "I feel that the internal force in this secret book focuses on a sense of balance between yin and yang. Our previous practice may be more inclined to a single direction of hardness or softness, so it feels awkward."

Bai Zixuan's eyes lit up after hearing this: "Brother Yiyun is right. Then when we try, we should try to find this balance, so that the internal force in the body can have both fierce explosive power and gentle tolerance."

The three tried again, and this time they were more cautious. They circulated their internal energy according to the instructions in the secret book while keeping an eye on each other's conditions.

Time passed quietly during this intense training process, and their whispered conversations and reminders could be heard from the cave from time to time.

After a while, Qin Mufeng suddenly said excitedly: "Hey! I seem to feel something. This internal force is running according to the method of the secret book. Although it is not smooth yet, I can feel a new power slowly growing in my body."

Upon hearing this, Bai Zixuan and Su Yiyun hurriedly stopped their attempts and came over to ask for details.

Bai Zixuan carefully observed Qin Mufeng's condition and nodded, "Brother Mufeng, your face looks rosy and your aura is calmer than before. It seems that you have made some progress. But don't be careless. Continue to feel the changes in this power and see if you can fully integrate it into your own internal strength."

Su Yiyun also agreed, "Yes, we have made some breakthroughs now, but we still have to continue to understand the essence of this secret book. Next, let's take a look at the moves recorded here. Maybe the combination of moves can help us better master this new power."

So, the three of them turned their attention to the moves recorded in the secret book. These moves were exquisite, some were like a snake coming out of a cave, flexible and changeable; some were like a tiger descending from a mountain, majestic and powerful.

Bai Zixuan stood up first and tried to practice a move called "Moon Shadow Shuttle". He was seen moving like lightning, quickly shuttling through the cave, leaving a series of faint moon-like light and shadows. But after practicing, he shook his head slightly: "This move looks simple, but it is not easy to use the new power. I felt that when I was exerting force just now, I was still a little stiff, and I failed to perfectly integrate the internal force with the move."

Seeing this, Su Yiyun also stood up and tried the same move. His movements were more light and graceful, but there were also some flaws in the point of force.

Qin Mufeng carefully observed the two people's practice from the side. After thinking for a moment, he said, "I think that when we perform a move, we can't just think about how to perform the move, but also how to accurately release the newly generated power through each move of the move. Just like archery, not only do you need a bow and arrow, but you also have to find the right point and direction of force to hit the target."

After listening to this, Bai Zixuan and Su Yiyun thought it made sense and nodded.

In the following time, the three of them continued to practice and instruct each other. They carefully analyzed each move, how to better use the new power, and how to avoid the risk of going crazy.

Through repeated attempts and revisions, they gradually mastered the essence of the "Hidden Moon Sect Secret Manual". The originally obscure moves became smooth and natural in their hands, and the mysterious power was perfectly integrated with their own internal strength, making their strength a qualitative leap compared to before.

At this time, a faint light appeared in the cave again, as if celebrating their successful practice.

Bai Zixuan looked at Su Yiyun and Qin Mufeng, his eyes full of relief and determination: "Now that we have mastered the essence of this secret book, our strength has greatly increased, but we must not forget the risks of this secret book. In the future, we must use it with caution and use this power to protect justice and help fellow martial artists."

Su Yiyun and Qin Mufeng nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, the three of them packed up their things, left the mysterious cave that brought them opportunities and challenges with confidence and responsibility for the future, and embarked on a journey to find an antidote for Bai Lao.
