Then, he suddenly had a feeling that the four Mountain-Lifting Palm Seals he previously obtained from the Xu Family Bloodline could unleash the power of 'World-Surpassing Martial Arts' with the help of this mental method.

"Disciple, your aura..."

As Shan Lingguan watched Chen Ku open the bamboo slip, the characters on it disappeared into Chen Ku's brow. The bamboo slip then transformed into a blank object, and Chen Ku closed his eyes, concentrating deeply, giving him and Qin Yuxian a sense of...

Suddenly, Chen Ku seemed to become a part of the boundless void before them, overseeing all things like the overarching sky.

"Could this be the Non-Dual Heart Method [Supreme Heavenly Heart Technique] from Xiong Ying's Sky-Shaking Earth-Shattering Divine Technique?"

Shan Lingguan was slightly shocked:

"That statue actually passed such a mental method to you."

What is a mental method?

It is known that Martial Practitioners typically cultivate in terms of life and spirit. Spirit is the realm of the mind, life is the cultivation of the body. Additionally, there is 'moves and divine power,' commonly referred to by martial artists as 'combat skills,' techniques for fighting and attacking.

Usually, most Martial Practitioners train by tempering their bodies and breakthroughs in cultivation. Life and Spirit Dual Cultivation, along with the growth of bodily Blood Qi, naturally nourishes the spirit, elevating both 'Spiritual Cultivation' and 'Life Skill.'

But in fact, Spiritual Cultivation can also be practiced independently. This magic skill is what is called a 'mental method.'

Spirit is mind, nurturing spirit is refining the mind, hence the name mental method.

Especially for some World-Surpassing, even Divine Skill Level martial arts, to fully unleash their power, one must have a matching mental state. Otherwise, forcibly driving it with an insufficient mental state will only backfire, eventually leading to being possessed by the Devil.

"Is this the mental method of the Mountain-Lifting Palm? Or should I say, the mental method of the entire 'Sky-Shaking Earth-Shattering Divine Technique'?" Chen Ku was pleasantly surprised. Initially, he found it difficult to fully utilize the divine power of the first four Palm Seals of the [Mountain-Lifting Palm] because he lacked a mental method and cultivation technique.

Now that he finally obtained the mental method directly from Xiong Ying, it's no wonder he feels like he can unleash the power of World-Surpassing Martial Arts with the first four Palm Seals.

"The reason why no one has been able to cultivate the 'Tyrant Body' of my Imperial Enlightenment Sect's Huntian Overlord Body until now is due to this very reason. There was only cultivation technique and combat skill, but no mental method..."

Shan Lingguan sighed:

"To meld the nine different cultivation bodies into one furnace, it is impossible without a matching mental state."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ku immediately asked: "Can this Supreme Heavenly Heart Technique be used as a mental method to operate the Huntian Overlord Body?"

Shan Lingguan shook his head immediately: "Absolutely not. Every martial art has its own compatibility, especially some special martial arts. It must be driven by a 'mental method' bred from one's own martial art and cultivated mental state. Otherwise, it will lead to being possessed by the Devil. My Imperial Enlightenment Sect's Huntian Overlord Body initially had a mental method, but unfortunately, it was lost in the hands of the second generation 'Overlord.'

Chen Ku noted in his heart: "Lost, but not nonexistent, which means there might be a chance to find it again."

"No matter what, this 'Supreme Heavenly Heart Technique' you received should suffice in allowing you to unleash the full power of the Mountain-Lifting Palm Seals." Shan Lingguan said: "Moreover, those three drops of True Blood might still harbor the subsequent Palm Seals of the Sky-Shaking Earth-Shattering Divine Technique, or even cultivation techniques. If you can comprehend and inherit them, they can all be driven and unleashed by this 'Supreme Heavenly Heart Technique,' no less than the divine power of the Tyrant Body in my sect."

About the last sentence, Shan Lingguan was very honest. What he cultivated with the Huntian Overlord Body was the Cultivation Body, and what Chen Ku had obtained was a mental method, so there was no conflict.

"As for this Tiger Talisman..." Qin Yuxian looked at the Tiger Talisman in Chen Ku's hand and said: "It seems to be the Tiger Talisman of the 'Mountain-Lifting Army' under the command of Mountain-Lifting Heavenly King Xiong Ying, one of the four grand armies under Hero King Pei Dongliu. However, after the founding of Daji, all of Hero King's armies were slaughtered and annihilated. Now where would there be an army, bestowing this Tiger Talisman with the title of 'Junior General,' what use is it?"

Chen Ku also looked at the Tiger Talisman in his hand, not knowing its purpose, pondering its use when suddenly.

Tap tap tap tap~~

Outside the great cloud formation around them, a clattering sound of armored footsteps suddenly arose.

Qin Yuxian seemed to think of an answer immediately and turned his head: "Does the army refer to... those bronze mechanisms?"

From afar,

the mist opened up to reveal a path, Shangguan Yun holding another Tiger Talisman, along with Xu Minjun and Sui You, walked over expressionlessly.

Behind him followed a bronze puppet, which was the Sword Puppet.

Shangguan Yun looked at Chen Ku with cold eyes and said:

"I should have thought of it, should have thought of it earlier. If I had recklessly acted half a year ago, willing to make mistakes rather than let it slip, how could it come to this day, where not only did you obtain the four drops of precious blood of Xiong Ying, but also shared the Tiger Talisman military seal with me!!"

As he spoke, his tone was full of murderous intent, his hand gripping the Tiger Talisman tightly.

At this point, how could he not understand that Chen Ku was the mysterious person who had used the Mountain Roar Tsunami Seal to kill Zhao Family's Zhao Yuyan back then?

Although he still didn't understand how Chen Ku obtained the Xu Family Bloodline inheritance, the fact was plainly right there.

It also explained why Chen Ku was able to enter this underground palace before him.

Hateful!

He had plotted and planned for this underground palace for almost ten years, yet in the end, obtained less than Chen Ku!

"Little Junior Brother, since ancient times, Tiger Talismans are divided into two parts, one held by the monarch and the other by the general. Only when combined can you command all the bronze armies within this underground palace..."

Qin Yuxian calmly reasoned, saying:

"If I'm not mistaken, Xiong Ying must have had a complete Tiger Talisman back then; that's how he was able to amass all the bronze armies here in the underground palace. However, he never expected to meet two descendants at once, forcing him to split the Tiger Talisman into two."

"The Tiger Talisman combines to control all the bronze armies within this underground palace?" Shan Lingguan's eyes sparkled with bright light. Since his disciple now held half of it, as long as he eliminated Shangguan Yun, he could seize all the bronze armies in this underground palace. Then, with the strength of the Mountain-Lifting Army under Xiong Ying, rebuilding the Imperial Enlightenment Sect would be a walk in the park.

Although the owner of the Tiger Talisman was his disciple, as long as the Imperial Enlightenment Sect could be rebuilt, he would retire to the background without another word, promoting his wonderful disciple to become the Sect Master with not a single issue.

Presumably, little Qin would have no objections at all.

After all, with such a powerful force to guard and conquer a region, establishing a nation was entirely possible, allowing little Qin to easily realize his grand ambitions.

Just as Shan Lingguan was fixating on the Tiger Talisman in Shangguan Yun's hand with dangerous eyes,

Shangguan Yun acted faster, shouting aloud:

"Bring the Tiger Talisman here!"
