The rain was still falling, and the forest was dark. The black hound fell to the ground and trembled. It was not completely dead yet, and its vitality was strong, but it was no longer strong enough to hurt people.
The man in black stood opposite, swaying his body and quickly reconnecting the broken bones. He did not hide his shock and said, "Although the Golden Body Technique is very powerful, few people practice it. First, the effect is very slow, and it often takes decades to achieve success. Second, if there is a slight mistake, the body will have serious problems and hurt itself."
He stared at Wang Xuan. It was clear that the other party had practiced the Golden Body Technique to the late fourth level, which would take at least thirty years, but he was only in his early twenties.
"How did you achieve this?" His eyes sparkled, his heart was restless, he had an extremely strong desire and was eager to know.
"Who are you killing me for?" Wang Xuan asked calmly. He didn't know the man in black, who was in his fifties, and they had never had any contact before.
He believed that there was someone behind the man in black, who was killing him on behalf of someone else and was still not the real boss.
The man in black looked calm and said, "If you beat me today, don't investigate this matter anymore. Let's end it here. I was the one who asked the Gray Blood Organization to kill you, and I was also the one who did it myself. You can think that I am the mastermind behind the scenes, and in fact, I am."
There was a faint golden light flashing in the depths of Wang Xuan's eyes, which was a manifestation of his success in the Golden Body Technique. It made the man in black even more eager to know how he got to this point.
The man in black didn't want to practice the Golden Body Technique, but wanted to find out if there were any secret methods or shortcuts. If he really could find out, the old technique might be able to shine again in this era.
He has practiced the old skills for decades and has come to this point with great difficulty. He is already considered a rare master in this field, but he deeply understands that after reaching this level, the road is almost over.
Wang Xuan was very cold and said, "You came to kill me, but you are unwilling to reveal the person behind you. Why should I tell you?"
The man in black stretched his body, loosened his muscles, and said, "As a practitioner of the old arts, I am only reminding you kindly because I see that you have come to this point at such a young age. If you can finally leave here alive and find out about me, then forget it. The matter should be almost over now. Just live your life peacefully and don't think about revealing anything. No one should target you again."
Wang Xuan felt anger rising in his heart. Although he was low-key and didn't like to cause trouble, he was attacked again and again like this, and in the end he had to endure it and not take the initiative to investigate. Only in this way could he stay alive and safe?
The man in black sighed softly, "It's really not easy for us to follow the old way, especially in this era. The road has completely come to an end and will soon be completely replaced by the new way. I am very unwilling to accept this. I hold on to unrealistic ideas and want to find a way out. I am so obsessed with it that I am almost crazy."
It can be seen that he is not pretending, but is really touched and has a deep obsession with the path of traditional arts.
The man in black was not in a hurry to act, and continued: "Ever since I learned that a certain scripture in the legend of our ancient art field appeared but was shelved and was just a collection of cultural relics by others, I couldn't help but want to get close to it, hoping to get a glimpse of the true meaning from it and find out the secret of the immortal."
Wang Xuan didn't say anything and just listened quietly.
"So I approached them on purpose. I knew that someone in that family was dissatisfied with you and wanted to kill you, so I took the initiative to approach them and tactfully said that as a scholar and professor, I could 'educate' you. At the same time, I hinted that I wanted to take a look at the ancient book in his house."
After hearing this, Wang Xuan frowned and thought back to the people he knew. He still couldn't figure out who it was. He had never had any deep hatred with anyone.
Until now he didn't know who he had offended, but who had to kill him.
At the same time, he was also a little surprised that the man in black turned out to be a scholar and a professor, and his identity seemed to be quite complicated.
The man in black seemed to see what he was thinking and said, "There was a time when the old arts were not yet in decline. As a researcher of the old arts, I also taught some students at the Nova University. Sometimes I was even invited to explain how to maintain health to some old guys of unusual status. It can be said that I was still quite famous at that time."
He smiled self-deprecatingly and shook his head.
Wang Xuan understood that before the new technique was fully announced and rose to prominence, the old technique was indeed valued for a period of time, and the pre-Qin bamboo slips in the old land were divided up by the chaebols and major research institutes.
In the past few years, Xinxing hoped to trigger supernatural powers through old techniques and integrate new techniques, so it is normal for the man in black in front of him to become a guest of honor of some chaebols. It is not surprising that he has the identity of a scholar and professor.
"That day, after I expressed my interest, the man really took out the only copy of the sutra in his home and showed me the first page. I was immediately attracted to it because I knew it was a priceless treasure, consistent with the path I had been exploring for so many years. It directly broke through a layer of window paper for me and opened a new window. You know, that was just the first page, but it told the story of my hard work and pursuit for most of my life. How amazing will the rest be? In the hands of those people, it was like a pearl covered in dust. Although they had studied it, they simply could not practice it. And I became more and more eager, because I was sure that I could make that legendary scripture bloom again with the most brilliant brilliance in the era when the old art was exhausted."
After saying this, the man in black's eyes were fiery, as if flames were dancing in them, and he was extremely excited.
"Unfortunately, I only read the first page!"
Until the end, he gradually regained his composure, the fire in his eyes extinguished, and then he stared at Wang Xuan again and said, "I seem to have discovered something even more amazing in you. Have you been practicing the Golden Body Technique since you were young, and there is a mysterious shortcut to take, so you have reached the fourth level at this age, or is it more amazing than I imagined?"
