The sun sets in the west, and under the glow of the sunset glow, the sky looks like it's on fire.

The setting sun casts golden light on the earth, and the whole world is covered with a golden veil like a cicada's wing.

Linjiang County.

Xiangshan Tingyu Community.

Room 302, Unit 2, Building 27.

living room.

Su Qing was lying on the sofa with his eyes closed, sorting out the extra information in his mind.

Boom! When Su Qing's consciousness entered his mind, he entered a vast and boundless magical space.

This world is boundless and vast, and is completely empty, with only four majestic beings that seem to have no end.

The Azure Dragon, which resides in the east, has horns like a deer, a head like a camel, eyes like a rabbit, a neck like a snake, a belly like a clam, scales like a fish, claws like an eagle, paws like a tiger, ears like an ox, a beard beside its mouth, a pearl under its jaw, and scales under its throat. It is mighty, majestic, sacred, and noble.

"Huainanzi" records: "Among the gods, none is more precious than the Azure Dragon."

Therefore, the Azure Dragon is the leader of the four symbols.

There is a white tiger in the west, which is extremely powerful. It is the star god of war and killing. It punishes evil and promotes good, and upholds justice. It can fight and defeat the strong, and eat ghosts and evil creatures.

There is the Vermilion Bird in the south, which symbolizes courtesy, virtue, civilization, talent, future, glory, excellence, happiness, and beauty.

In the north there is Xuanwu, also known as Xuanming, which is a combination of a turtle and a snake. It is the water god and lives in the North Sea. Turtles are long-lived and are a symbol of immortality.

The four sacred beasts are fully majestic, suppressing the four poles of heaven and earth with boundless power!

This magical space is where the true meaning of the "Four Symbols and Four Directions Martial Arts Classics" is condensed.

It does not fall into words, does not form pictures, is not taught by words or actions, and does not enter the six ears.

In front of the true meaning of martial arts at the seventh level of the Heavenly Man Realm, the "Pure Yang Collection" at the fifth level of the Yuantai Realm is somewhat inadequate.

Therefore, when Su Qing was comprehending the true meaning of martial arts, the innate pure yang energy in his body seemed to be attracted by the true meaning and automatically circulated according to the key points of the "Four Symbols and Four Directions Martial Arts Classics".

The path of true qi flowing through the meridians in the body becomes more complex and mysterious.

As if sensing this scene, Su Qing subconsciously took out all the divine crystals and magic crystals from his personal space and placed them in front of himself.

“Swish, swish, swish.”

Wisps of energy floated out from the crystal and were absorbed into Su Qing's body.

"Clattery"

Before I knew it, all the obstacles to the next level had disappeared.

The true energy in the body was like a rushing river, breaking through the obstacles and rushing into the acupoints all over the body.

The third stage is the realm of the Grandmaster in the martial arts, focusing on the cultivation of 365 acupoints around the body.

These acupoints are hidden in the body. Without the method of detecting the acupoints, it is impossible to discover their existence.

Some low-level martial arts techniques only involve the cultivation of innate true qi, but lack the method of detecting acupoints. The martial artist will never be able to break through to the third-level master level for the rest of his life.

Su Qing did not have such worries. Whether it was the "Chun Yang Treasure Book" of the fifth-level Yuantai realm or the "Four Symbols and Four Directions Martial Arts Classics" of the seventh-level Tianren realm, both contained unique methods of detecting acupoints.

"boom!"

It was as if the world was just created, and the ancestral orifice between the eyebrows was forcibly opened by the vast true qi.

The true energy poured into the ancestral acupoint between the eyebrows, expanding it, and the area of ​​the ancestral acupoint between the eyebrows continued to expand.

These true qi have evolved from pure yang attributes to four-symbol attributes, and the quality has become more refined.

"Bang, bang, bang"

After a while, the energy in all the divine crystals and magic crystals in front of Su Qing was consumed, and the automation became nothing.

But the skills in his body were still running at high speed, constantly absorbing energy from the outside world.

Without the energy replenishment from the divine crystals and magic crystals, the technique began to absorb spiritual energy from the outside world.

However, the spiritual energy of the earth is extremely thin, almost zero, and the skills naturally cannot absorb the spiritual energy.

"Buzz"

It began to absorb Su Qing's physical strength, transforming it into spiritual energy, and continuously replenishing it into the ancestral orifice between his eyebrows.

Su Qing's body was getting thinner at a speed visible to the naked eye.

A body weighing 78 kg was reduced to 60 kg in a blink of an eye, and even lost 50 kg.

All the muscles in his body were melted away, leaving only a layer of skin outside the bones, which looked extremely scary.

"not good!"

Somewhere in the dark, Su Qing, who was trying to comprehend the true meaning of martial arts, seemed to have sensed something, and his mind sent out a crazy warning.

[Ding! The detection administrator 'Su Qing' is in critical condition, the automatic protection mechanism is activated! ]

[Ding! The "Four Symbols and Four Directions Martial Arts Classics" practiced by the detection administrator 'Su Qing' contains hidden dangers, which have been erased! ]

Fortunately, the chat group discovered something was wrong and automatically triggered the protection mechanism.

In an instant, an invisible wave descended and forcibly took Su Qing away from that magical space.

He forcibly stopped the operation of the martial arts, protected Su Qing, and resolved his life-and-death crisis.

In addition, the chat group detected the hidden dangers in the "Four Symbols and Four Directions Martial Classics" and automatically eliminated them.

"Shit, no one would believe me if I told them this. I was practicing and practicing, and I almost killed myself!"

Su Qing looked down at his skinny appearance and felt a strong sense of fear in his heart.

According to the personal information in the chat group background, his weight was only 49 kilograms, and nearly 30 kilograms of muscle had been lost.

In addition, all 68 level 1 divine crystals, 17 level 2 divine crystals, and 40 level 3 magic beast crystal cores in the portable space were also used up.

“Crack!”

I opened the chat group and took a selfie of myself.

"Oh, I also have some stamina potion."

Afterwards, Su Qing quickly took out the F-level physical strength potion and drank bottle after bottle.

I don't know if drinking this stuff can make up for it, so let's give it a try.

"Gurgling"

It took him a full hundred bottles of physical strength potions to fully recover.

"belch"

After a burp, Su Qing became full of energy again and his weight returned to its original state.

“Finally alive!”

Looking back, Su Qing's face was gloomy and he was filled with fear.

After taking a look at the personal information in the background, his realm had become the third-level Grandmaster realm.

His physical strength increased by 100,000 jin at one time, reaching 174,400 jin, or 87 tons.

And his lifespan has also been increased by two generations, reaching the upper limit of 523 years, which is longer than that of an ordinary fourth-level warrior.

Fortunately, after sacrificing my body, I finally got something in return.

If not, it would be even more painful.

"Hidden danger? What do you mean?"

Only then did Su Qing notice the two reminder messages sent by the chat group.

One is to see that he is dying and activate the protection mechanism to save his life.

This protection mechanism was triggered once by Brother Xie Yuanshan last time, so it’s not surprising.

But the second tip made Su Qing's face change drastically.

What? This technique actually has hidden dangers? "Mom, could it be that this technique is a bait used by some big boss as written in the online novels?"

Suddenly, Su Qing thought of the online novels he had read before. Some fairy tale novels or fantasy novels usually have such plots.

The protagonist or supporting character obtains a high-level martial arts technique, but little does he know that it is actually a bait secretly thrown by a big boss.

This kind of martial art contains hidden dangers. Once you practice it, you will unknowingly fall into the trap set by the schemer.

Either you are assimilated, absorbed, and devoured by the schemer, or you become a pawn in his hands and are controlled by him for the rest of your life.

"Fortunately, there is a chat group to protect us, otherwise..."

Thinking of that terrible ending, Su Qing shuddered and trembled all over.

"Fortunately, there was no danger. The chat group has eliminated the hidden danger. I can practice with peace of mind from now on."

Coming back to his senses, he let out a long sigh and wiped the sweat from his head.

Open the public chat of the chat group:

"Brothers, I almost died!"

"After I bought the technique, I immersed myself in it and comprehended its true meaning of martial arts."

"Who would have thought that it would actually operate and cultivate automatically, not only consuming all of my divine crystals, but I was almost sucked dry by it!"

"Luckily the chat group had a member protection mechanism, so I survived."

"picture.jpeg."

"Nuo, I lost 60 pounds in an instant and almost died!"

After uploading the photos he had taken earlier, Su Qing talked about his experience with lingering fear.

"???"

"???+1"

"???+1"

The group members typed countless question marks, all looking confused.

Just now they were still discussing how rich Su Qing was, but he had quietly saved up a thousand points.

In the blink of an eye, how come he almost died suddenly?

When everyone clicked on the picture, they all gasped.

Is the skinny guy in the photo Su Qing?

If I hadn't told you, I would have thought it was a skeleton that had turned into a spirit . It's so scary!

"Ah, what's going on? I really don't know!"

"Brother Su, you have to believe me. I really don't know anything."

Wang Sheng had an innocent look on his face. He was also kept in the dark and had no idea that there was something wrong with his martial arts technique.

"What's going on? Why is there a problem with the technique?"

Xie Yuanshan's face was solemn. If this problem was not figured out, who would dare to buy things in the group mall in the future?

"Brother Wang, you have to take the blame!"

"Indeed, this has never happened in our group before!"

"Is this a conspiracy of the Sifang Sect? Let Brother Wang obtain the skills, and then use the skills to kill him?"

"Oh my god, now that you put it that way, it's really possible!"

“It’s horrible!”

The group members all gasped, how terrible!

"The chat group only told me that there were hidden dangers in the technique, and that the hidden dangers had been automatically eliminated."

"But it didn't say what the hidden dangers were."

Seeing the group members' wild guesses, Su Qing was a little undecided.

"Fuck, so I got scammed?"

"Damn it, I told you that I could easily defeat the Sifang Sect."

"Is this a trap they've dug for me to jump into?"

Looking at the group members' analysis, Wang Sheng widened his eyes and kept cursing.

"Brother Su, this is my fault. I made you become like this."

"How about this? I'll return the points you used to buy the technique to you. What do you think?"

After cursing, Wang Sheng thought about it and felt a little sorry for Su Qing.

If this was a conspiracy of the Sifang Sect, then Su Qing was essentially helping him to block a disaster and eliminate a calamity.

"Old Wang did this in an open and aboveboard manner, there is nothing wrong with it!"

"That's fine. Su Qing suffered a loss after all, so it's only right that you return the points to him."

"Also, take that seventh-level technique off the shelf and don't sell it anymore."

"Yes, don't sell it. Few of us can afford it anyway."

Seeing Wang Sheng being so straightforward, the group members all gave him a thumbs up.

"Okay, I won't be polite with you."

Seeing this, Su Qing did not refuse pretentiously. Only a fool would not want it.

"Ahem, but I only got half of the points. The mall took half of the tax."

"I only have 500 points. I'll give you the remaining 500 points when I have enough."

Seeing that Su Qing did not pursue the matter further, Wang Sheng felt relieved.

"That's not necessary. Just give me 500 points."

It is enough to get back 500 points. If Su Qing takes another 500 points, he will feel guilty.

"Okay, then I won't be polite with you."

"I've transferred it to you. Please receive it."

Su Qing didn't want the additional 500 points, and Wang Sheng didn't force it on him.

He opened the private chat with Su Qing and sent him 500 points.

"Okay, I see."

Su Qing happily accepted the 500 points and replied.

Five hundred points were returned, which was equivalent to a seventh-level martial arts technique for free? Not only that, he broke through to the third-level martial arts master realm, opened up a meridian in his body, and greatly improved his strength.

The life span is added up to 120 years, reaching an astonishing 523 years! This is simply a win, okay!

"I've removed the technique from the shelves to prevent it from harming others."

After settling Su Qing’s matter, Wang Sheng opened the group mall again and removed the "Four Symbols and Four Directions Martial Arts Classics" from the shelves.

Soon, a jade and golden book fell into his hands. This was the original version of "Four Symbols and Four Directions Martial Classics".

This kind of jade and golden book is a specialty of the Kyushu martial arts world. A certain powerful person recorded the entire content of "Four Symbols and Four Directions Martial Arts Classics" in the jade and golden book by means of mind imprinting.

In the group mall, as long as the original version of the skills is uploaded, it will automatically be branded as a copy for sale in unlimited quantities.

"Fuck you!"

Holding the jade book and golden book, Wang Sheng was filled with anger and slapped it hard with his palm.

“Click.”

With a slight sound, the jade and golden book were shattered and fell from between his fingers.

A light breeze blew, and jade powder flew everywhere.

"Fuck you, I'll destroy this shitty sect headquarters for you too!"

Wang Sheng was still not satisfied, so he flew up and searched the entire Sifang Sect headquarters.

Loot all the valuable things inside and then fly into the sky.

He raised his hand and patted the palaces on the mountain.

Palms formed by the condensed energy fell down, turning the palaces into ruins.

In just a short while, the Sifang Sect's headquarters was destroyed by him.

"Brothers, I have destroyed that technique and the Sifang Sect!"

"They don't make my life easy, and I make them uncomfortable."

"Come on, let's hurt each other and see who can beat who!"

"picture.jpeg; picture.jpeg; picture.jpeg;"

Wang Sheng stopped only after the entire Sifang Sect headquarters was reduced to ruins.

He took a few photos, uploaded them to the group, and said to the group members.

"666, it's so refreshing!~"

"Well done! Applause!"

"Old Wang is so decisive in killing and so clear about gratitude and resentment. It's so cool to watch!"

After clicking on the picture and seeing that a good sect headquarters was destroyed, the group members felt relieved and cheered.

If you do it on the first day, don't blame me for doing it on the fifteenth. This is called give and take.

“Ding ding.”

Su Qing shook her head and was about to speak when a private message popped up.
