Although the cultivation level of the late stage of Huajin was nothing in Yang Qi's eyes, it was already the top existence in the secular world. You should know that the worshiper of the Ninth Bureau of Guoan was only at the Huajin level.
"If it weren't for your help, I wouldn't have been able to break through in such a short time." Hong Zhennan said with gratitude, "In fact, I am very satisfied that I can enter the middle stage of Huajin. As for the fetal breathing stage, I dare not even think about it."
After the last banquet hosted by Xu Tu, Hong Zhennan was no longer the warrior who lived overseas. He also knew more about practitioners and naturally knew how difficult it was to enter the fetal breathing state. Even in the Chinese martial arts world, they were rare.
“You have good talent. Since you have the opportunity to reach the fetal breathing state, don’t give up.” Yang Qi said lightly.
Hong Zhennan's talent is probably not inferior to Xu Tu's. Xu Tu has not made a breakthrough for decades because he took a detour. However, Hong Zhennan has listened to the guidance of many powerful people in succession, so it is naturally easier for him to practice than Xu Tu.
"To be honest, senior, I don't have any skills for the late stage of Hua Jin." Hong Zhennan said with a wry smile.
Hearing this, Yang Qi was stunned. He had seen many practitioners, including those at the fetal breathing stage. In this era of declining martial arts, what these martial artists lacked was not skills, but resources. So Yang Qi had never thought that Hong Zhennan did not have a skill for the late stage of Huajin.
It is said that Hongmen is a sect that originated from Hung Fist, which was founded by Hong Xiguan in the Qing Dynasty. Hong Zhennan himself is just a branch of Hongmen and has not inherited much. Even if Hongmen has a method to break through the fetal breathing state, it is not surprising that Hong Zhennan's lineage did not obtain it.
"I do have a technique here that can be used to cultivate the Dao Taixi realm." Yang Qi handed the part of the Xuanhuang Sutra below the Taixi realm to Hong Zhennan.
"Thank you, senior." Hong Zhennan said excitedly, "Whatever you ask me to do, I will do it."
All sects attach great importance to the inheritance of martial arts, and it is impossible for them to leak their martial arts. However, Yang Qi taught him a martial arts method that can be practiced to the fetal breathing state. Such a great favor made Hong Zhennan completely devoted to him.
"This is what you deserve." Yang Qi glanced at Hong Zhennan and continued, "Determine that area as soon as possible."
"Yes." Hong Zhennan nodded, then said goodbye and left.
Under Hong Zhennan's full investigation, some deserted islands on the map were quickly eliminated. In the end, only thirteen islands were left. However, these thirteen islands could not be eliminated any further.
"Senior, according to our investigation, the place you are looking for is among these thirteen islands, but we are not sure which one it is." Hong Zhennan said helplessly on the yacht.
The map drawn by Yang Qi was too crude. To be able to investigate to this extent, Hong Zhennan had already mobilized a large amount of manpower and material resources, and even sent a large number of personnel to investigate hundreds of islands in person. However, even so, it was still impossible to determine which island it was.
"It doesn't matter. Thirteen islands are not many. We can just search slowly." Yang Qi said lightly.
It is very rare to be able to determine to this extent. After all, when he got the map of Xu Fu's practice place, he only determined an approximate location.
Java, like Fuso, is a country with many earthquakes, and it is also an island. The appearance of the island may change greatly due to the erosion of the sea for countless years. Hong Zhennan received a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, otherwise it would be impossible for others to determine the thirteen islands in such a short time.
There are thirteen islands left, which can only be investigated one by one. Fortunately, Yang Qi is not in a hurry. He searches every island carefully. When the jade pendant is close to the cave, it will sense it, so it is not too difficult.
"Senior, this is the sixth island." Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Hong Zhennan couldn't help but speak.
"The last island, we will come to the rest tomorrow." Yang Qi said as he looked at the somewhat tired entourage. It was okay for him and Hong Zhennan to travel like this, but the other people on the yacht could not withstand such a journey.
"It's here." As soon as he stepped onto the island, Yang Qi felt the jade pendant on his body tremble slightly, as if something deep in the island was attracting the jade pendant.
"It's this island." Yang Qi's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he looked at Hong Zhennan and said, "You go back first. This is the place I'm looking for. I may stay on the island for three to five days. You can come and pick me up then."
"Senior, how about I stay and accompany you?" Hong Zhennan asked hesitantly.
After all, this is an uninhabited island, and even the basic resources for life are not available on the island. Although Yang Qi has strong cultivation, there are still considerable dangers on such a deserted island.
"No need, I know what I am doing." Yang Qi said calmly.
"yes."
Seeing that Yang Qi insisted, Hong Zhennan didn't say anything more. He left some fresh water and food before leaving with everyone.
Yang Qi moved his hands and put the fresh water and food into the storage ring. He stepped forward and flew rapidly towards the depths of the island.
As Yang Qi went deeper, the jade pendant's reaction became stronger and stronger, which further confirmed that the cave of the powerful martial arts master was on this nameless island.
Whoosh~
In the forest, a figure flashed quickly and soon came to a cliff. Under the erosion of the sea breeze, the cliff had peeled off a lot, but Yang Qi could clearly feel that the entrance to the cave was on the cliff.
Yang Qi shook the sword in his hand, leaped down, and fell directly towards the cliff.
“Puff~”
The long sword pierced into the cliff, and Yang Qi's body landed steadily in the middle of the cliff.
"The fluctuation of the formation." Yang Qi felt the fluctuation of the formation on the cliff, took out the jade pendant on his body, and poured his Yuanli into it. The next moment, a silver-white light burst out from the jade pendant, and then ripples appeared on the cliff, and the weathered stone wall seemed to turn into water surface.
Yang Qi twisted his body and rushed directly into the stone wall. The next moment, his body seemed to be swallowed by the stone wall and disappeared.
Inside the stone wall, there is a long passage. After walking along the passage for about a hundred meters, the view in front of us suddenly becomes wider.
"I didn't expect that there would be another world inside this stone wall." The entire stone wall was obviously carved out, and it was obviously done deliberately by the predecessor at that time.
"That is..." Suddenly, not far away, a huge stone door attracted Yang Qi's attention. This stone door was actually made of star stone. In the middle of the stone door, there was a groove, which looked like a jade pendant.
"Another formation?" When Yang Qi arrived in front of the stone gate, he felt the powerful aura emanating from the formation on the stone gate, and his expression changed slightly. Even if a strong martial artist came, it would be impossible to break through the formation on the stone gate.
Apparently, the only way to open the stone door is with the jade pendant! (To be continued)
