Chapter 37: No Other Thoughts
Upon hearing that Qian Jin wanted to cultivate the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra with her, Xiaolongnu shook her head and said:
"This, this won't do!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Jin looked surprised and said:
"Why not? Is there some rule in your Ancient Tomb Sect that forbids this Jade Maiden Heart Sutra from being taught to anyone?"
"No, not at all."
"Since there isn't one, what's there to hesitate about?"
Back then, Wang Chongyang was able to exchange his Innate Skill for the One-Finger Divine Skill, a unique martial art of Dali, with Emperor Duan. Why don't we follow in the footsteps of our predecessors?
"I will exchange the Nine Yin Manual for the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra with you. What do you think, Miss Long?"
Upon hearing this, Little Dragon Girl quickly shook her head again and said:
"Young Master Qian, that's not what I meant."
It's not that I'm unwilling to pass on the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra to you, it's just that...
"But what?"
"However, this Jade Maiden Heart Sutra is different from other martial arts. In addition to requiring two people to practice together, the practitioner also needs to open their clothes so that the heat in their body can be released immediately during practice without any obstruction. Otherwise, the heat will accumulate in the body, which can lead to serious illness or even death."
We are men and women, and it would be improper for us to face each other with our clothes open.
Upon hearing this, Qian Jin stared blankly and sighed:
"I never imagined that there would be so many requirements to cultivate this Jade Maiden Heart Sutra."
However, if Miss Long cannot cultivate the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, her injuries will not be able to fully recover. What should we do?
Is there really no other way to cultivate the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra besides opening one's clothes?
Upon hearing this, Xiaolongnu shook her head and said nothing more.
The two stared at each other for a long time. Qian Jin had no idea what Xiaolongnu was thinking, so he tentatively said:
"actually……"
As Qian Jin spoke, Xiaolongnu also spoke at the same time.
The two exchanged a smile, and Qian Jin spoke first:
"Miss Long, please speak your mind."
Upon hearing this, Little Dragon Girl shook her head and said:
"No, let's have Young Master Qian speak first."
Upon hearing this, Qian Jin said:
"Since that's the case, then I'll just say it directly."
Actually, I think that although we need to open our clothes when practicing the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, the purpose is still to help you heal your injuries.
Now, between us, we can even disregard life and death. As long as we are both free of ulterior motives, what harm is there in being completely honest with each other?
Upon hearing this, Little Dragon Girl nodded and said:
"Young Master Qian is absolutely right. I was narrow-minded before."
Seeing that Xiaolongnu agreed without hesitation, Qian Jin was overjoyed and said:
"Miss Long, I've finished speaking. Now it's your turn."
"What I was about to say is actually exactly the same as what Young Master Qian said."
Little Dragon Girl spoke softly, a hint of shyness involuntarily appearing on her face.
She grew up in the ancient tomb and knew almost nothing about worldly affairs. In addition, the martial arts of the Ancient Tomb Sect were good at controlling the seven emotions and six desires.
So after thinking about it for a while, I realized that opening my clothes and practicing the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra with Qian Jin wasn't entirely impossible.
After all, Qian Jin had already removed her clothes once when he helped her heal her injuries.
That time it was to save her life, this time it's to completely heal her injuries, so there's not much difference.
Moreover, when facing Li Mochou just now, Qian Jin was willing to die for her, so in Xiaolongnu's heart, she would follow Qian Jin for the rest of her life.
If that's the case, why should she care about cultivating the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra together?
Seeing the blush on Xiaolongnu's face, Qian Jin couldn't help but be captivated and became unconsciously infatuated with her.
The beauty of Little Dragon Girl is an ethereal beauty, like a fairy who doesn't eat the food of this world, making people dare not profane her.
But this touch of rosy clouds just happened to make the fairy fall to the mortal world, how could people not yearn for it?
"Young Master Qian, the internal cultivation part of the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra is divided into nine stages, and I have now cultivated to the fifth stage."
"If Young Master Qian wishes to cultivate with me, in addition to mastering the first few stages, you will also need to master the external martial arts aspects of the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, namely the Jade Maiden Swordplay and the Quanzhen Swordplay."
Little Dragon Girl's voice pulled Qian Jin back to reality, so he quickly chuckled awkwardly twice and said:
"This is not difficult. Quanzhen Swordplay is my sect's martial art, and I have already mastered it."
Therefore, Miss Long only needs to teach me the Jade Maiden Sword Technique a few times, and I will be able to quickly grasp this swordsmanship.
Without saying much, Xiaolongnu immediately began teaching Qian Jin the Jade Maiden Sword Technique.
She was very patient when she taught, and after she finished explaining it once, seeing that Qian Jin didn't say anything, she started explaining it a second time on her own.
After reading it three times, Qian Jin sighed:
"So this is the Jade Maiden Sword Technique. It can indeed restrain the Quanzhen Sword Technique in every way, yet it can also complement the Quanzhen Sword Technique."
"Senior Lin Chaoying was truly a martial arts prodigy to create such swordsmanship."
Upon hearing this, Xiaolongnu knew that Qian Jin's words meant he had already mastered the Jade Maiden Sword Technique, so she said:
"Young Master Qian, the martial art of the seventh chapter of the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra is called the Jade Maiden Pure Heart Sword Technique. It is a combination of the Quanzhen Sword Technique and the Jade Maiden Sword Technique, which are used by men and women respectively. Only by combining the two swords can the Jade Maiden Pure Heart Sword Technique be unleashed at its strongest.
Since Young Master Qian was able to comprehend the complementary relationship between the Jade Maiden Sword Technique and the Quanzhen Sword Technique, he must have already gained a very deep understanding of the Jade Maiden Sword Technique.
When I was learning the Jade Maiden Sword Technique from my master, I wasn't as fast as Young Master Qian. So, in my opinion, Young Master Qian is also a martial arts prodigy.
Qian Jin was overjoyed to be praised by Xiaolongnu.
Over the years, he had been instructing Yang Guo in martial arts, and the boy would often praise him with a face full of admiration, but he always felt that the other party was just flattering him.
However, Xiaolongnu was different. She didn't have as many thoughts as Yang Guo. If she praised him, it was because she genuinely believed that he was a martial arts prodigy.
So when he heard this, he was naturally very pleased, and he was even a little embarrassed to ask Xiaolongnu to continue teaching him the Jade Maiden Sword Technique.
However, it doesn't matter. The Jade Maiden Sword Technique and the Quanzhen Sword Technique are at the same level. In addition, he has already mastered the Nine Yin Manual to the highest level. With the Ambidextrous Technique, even if he practices on his own, his improvement speed will not be slower than that taught by Little Dragon Girl.
So he immediately laughed and said:
"Haha, it was only after you explained it so many times that I finally grasped the basics of the Jade Maiden Sword Technique."
To fully grasp it, you'll need to practice more.
After saying that, she got up and went into the stone chamber, found two wooden sticks and took them in her hands. Then, using the sticks as swords, she used both hands to perform the Jade Maiden Sword Technique at the same time.
Little Dragon Girl sat not far away, watching Qian Jin use his left hand to perform the first move of the Jade Maiden Sword Technique and his right hand to perform the second move. Her eyes widened in disbelief.
She had been practicing the Jade Maiden Sword Technique for so many years, and she had never known that the Jade Maiden Sword Technique could be practiced in this way.
