Chapter 95: Drunken Immortal's Moonlit Steps!

  It's clear that Nan Gong Mu is now a Xiantian Martial Artist, his martial arts talent can be considered top-notch. Previously, Chen Da Sheng said he mastered the Ascending Dragon Fist in just one week, and he still had some doubts about it. Now, Chen Da Sheng only needs to watch Ling Xiao's Nineteenth Sword once, and it's not even a complete version of the sword technique, yet he can learn it so easily without any guidance from a master or a sword manual. Can his talent be described as genius?

  The three people in front were all stunned, including Nangong Zixuan, who was also looking at Chen Dasheng with a shocked face. This sword technique was so exquisite, how could she not know? But the fact was right in front of her, and she couldn't help but believe it.

  "There's nothing wrong, haha, what a freak! My Nangong family has actually produced such a freak!" Nangong Mu calmed down the excitement in his heart and burst out laughing.

  When did I become a member of the Nangong family? Chen Dabai couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart, is it that easy to learn a sword technique and become so overbearing? It doesn't seem difficult for me either!

  Nan Gongmu patted Chen Dashi's shoulder, his eyes full of delight. The more he looked at Chen Dashi, the more pleasing to the eye he became. "Xiao Li, this younger brother of yours is truly a rare talent that comes once in a thousand years!"

  Chen Xiaoli came back to his senses from the shock, and his two eyes fell on Chen Dasheng's body, already unable to speak.

  Chen Daxing chuckled and said, "Uncle, is this sword technique difficult to practice?"

  Nan Gong Mu's face twitched, and he burst out laughing, stroking his beard. He pointed at Nan Gong Zi Xuan and said, "This set of Ling Xiao Nineteen Swords, Xuan'er started practicing from the age of twelve, and only barely entered the door at fourteen. Xuan'er is already twenty years old this year, and has been practicing this sword technique for eight years. You say it's not difficult?"

  Chen Dashi turned his face to look at Nangong Zixuan, and he couldn't help but think in his heart that after eight years of cultivation, she had only managed to cultivate to this extent. This girl was really stupid enough, if he were to marry her, wouldn't it lower the intelligence of their future children?

  If Nan Gong Zi Xuan knew what Chen Da Sheng was thinking, she would probably be heartbroken. The Ling Xiao Nineteen Swords were a very advanced sword technique, and it was extremely difficult to learn. She had managed to master the basics in just two years, which already made her one of the most talented ones in the family.

  "Big win, did you really just learn it?"

  Chen Xiaoli never thought that her younger brother would have such a heaven-defying talent, so even when faced with the facts, she still couldn't believe it. If she had known earlier that Chen Daxing had such a high aptitude for martial arts, she would have taken him on the path of martial arts long ago.

  Facing Chen Xiaoli's questioning gaze, Chen Dasheng could only nod helplessly. He had never learned swordsmanship before, and the Ling Xiao Nineteenth Sword was a family heirloom of the Nan Gong family. It was impossible for him to have come into contact with it. If he hadn't just learned it, then when could he have learned it?

  Nan Gongmu stood aside for a moment, then directly pulled out a roll of wrapped brocade from his bosom and handed it to Chen Dasheng.

  "What? Uncle, what is this?"

  Chen Daxing's face was filled with confusion as he took the silk fabric, which still retained Nangong Mu's body temperature, clearly having been hidden close to his skin.

  "This is a top-notch lightness skill step called 'Drunken Immortal's Moon-Gazing Step'!"

  "Drunk Immortal Gazes at the Moon Steps? Uncle, what's this for?" Chen Dashi thought to himself, guessing Nangong Mu's intentions.

  "This footwork is a legacy of my ancestors in the South Palace, passed down through generations. It's said to be left behind by a martial arts master who had reached the realm of Wu Xian. For thousands of years, none of the younger generation of the South Palace family have been able to decipher this mysterious skill, but since it's only a light body technique, no one has been obsessed with it either. I've kept it hidden all these years, and today, seeing that you're exceptionally talented, Uncle will give it to you as a gift for our meeting."

  Chen Dashi's face twitched slightly upon hearing this. He couldn't learn it himself, yet he gave it away as a gift. What kind of meeting gift is this?

  "Thank you, Uncle Nan!" Although he had some reservations in his heart, Chen Dashi still thanked Nan Gongmu, and in his heart, he added a bit of expectation for this technique that no one had been able to master for thousands of years.

  Nan Gong Mu smiled, this footwork would only be a waste on him, he had just seen Chen Da Sheng bring Nan Gong Zi Xuan down from mid-air, and knew that he only used brute force to dissipate the force, clearly not understanding the art of lightness, which is why he thought of giving Drunken Immortal's Stance to Chen Da Sheng.

  If relying on Chen Daxing's qualifications, he could let the ancestors' Drunken Immortal Stance reappear in the world, that would be something he would very much like to see. All along, many seniors in the clan had doubted whether this stance had some sort of flaw or not. If even someone with Chen Daxing's heaven-defying qualifications couldn't decipher it, then perhaps this stance didn't have any significance to exist either.

  Nan Gong Mu's eyes lingered on Nan Gong Zi Xuan for a moment, and at this moment, he was even more determined to marry Nan Gong Zi Xuan to Chen Da Sheng. Such a monstrous martial arts talent, if not becoming the son-in-law of the Nan Gong family, would be the greatest loss for the Nan Gong family in thousands of years.

  Nangong Zixuan's mind was also in a state of turmoil, Chen Daxing's performance had truly shocked her. Just by watching him practice his swordsmanship once, he had surpassed her eight years of hard work. To say that people are jealous of others is quite fitting, no wonder her grandfather had such high regard for him.

  Chen Dashi raised his head and looked at Nangong Mu, somewhat curiously saying, "Uncle, what is the Wu Xian boundary?"

  Nan Gong stroked his beard, and the ruddy face showed a hint of nostalgia. "Wu Xian, that's a legendary realm. A martial artist who breaks through the innate Wu Zong can transcend the ordinary and become a Golden Elixir Wu Sheng. The Wu Xian realm is even higher than the Wu Sheng realm, capable of moving mountains and filling seas, no different from an immortal. It's said that my Nan Gong family's ancestors were powerful experts in the Wu Xian realm!"

  Is it no different from a fairy? The whole Huaxia can't even find one martial saint, let alone a stronger martial immortal. Is there such a realm? Perhaps only in the legendary "long, long ago" would it exist!

  Chen Dasheng couldn't help but feel a sense of longing, looking at the roll of brocade in his hand, with infinite expectation in his heart. Although it was just a light skill, it was left behind by an immortal, so it must have something extraordinary about it.

  The brocade was nearly a foot wide and two meters long, slowly unfolding it, the surface was filled with dense text and patterns formed by footprint impressions.

  Chen Dasheng looked at it for a while and couldn't help but feel dizzy, the words were stumbling over each other, Chen Dasheng had no idea what they meant.

  Nan Gong Mu saw it and couldn't help but laugh, "It's said that this step is created from the Daoist classics, if you don't understand anything about the Daoist classics, of course you won't be able to understand it!"

  Chen Daxing was speechless, meaning that if he wanted to learn these steps, he would have to learn the Tao first. He put away the brocade and looked up with a bitter smile, saying, "Uncle, there are so many Taoist classics, I don't know when I'll finish learning them."

  "No rush, no rush, just take your time to understand, don't be in a hurry!" Nangong Mu smiled and said, "The Taoist scriptures are indeed profound. Pick up a few famous ones and take a look. They will also be of great help to your future growth in martial arts."

  Chen Daxing reluctantly put away the roll of brocade, it turned out that this qinggong was derived from Taoist classics, no wonder the text on it read so awkwardly and obscurely.

  Chen Dashi put away the brocade, and Nangong Mu said, "Dashi, Uncle sees that you have some unusual power."

  Chen Dashi nodded and said, "Alright, it's indeed a bit stronger, but as for the extent of the Great Way, I'm not quite sure either."

  Nangong Mu turned his face and looked at Chen Xiaoli, Chen Xiaoli nodded and said, "Follow me!"

  He dropped a sentence and Chen Xiaoli turned to walk towards a room locked with a large lock on the side. In Chen Daxing's memory, that room was often locked with a large lock, said to be a storage room for miscellaneous items. Seeing Chen Xiaoli walking towards that room, Chen Daxing felt puzzled in his heart.

  Nan Gong Mu patted Chen Da Sheng's shoulder and also took him and Nan Gong Zi Xuan away.

  The big door of the room was opened, a burst of dust came in, and the house emitted a musty smell, as if no one had entered for a long time.

  The light was a bit dim, Chen Xiaoli turned on the lamp, and it instantly lit up. On the central floor, there was a huge Taiji yin-yang diagram. In the center of the diagram, a dusty meditation cushion was placed, surrounded by various exercise equipment, making it look like a gym.
