Chapter 8 Golden Bell Shield, but Huang Shang's Improved Version
Yue Feng returned to his room, sat down at the table, took a sip of tea, and opened the control panel.
[Remaining Access Points: 80]
[Five Mountains Sword Sect's Ultimate Technique: Mastery]
After killing Jiang Hengyu, Yue Feng initially had 90 Tongda Points remaining. To shift the blame to the Songshan Sect, he spent 30 Tongda Points upgrading the Five Mountains Sword Sect's ultimate technique. After successfully stealing the Qingcheng Sect's gift, he gained another 20 Tongda Points, bringing his current balance to 80.
Yue Feng turned off the control panel, but his peripheral vision caught sight of the Golden Bell Cover manual on the table. Driven by curiosity, he began to look through it.
He flipped through the manual from beginning to end and found that in addition to various methods for strengthening muscles and bones, there were also many tips for meditation and breath control. He couldn't help but feel a little strange, as this seemed to be quite different from what Zhang San had said.
He opened the panel, and sure enough, a new entry had appeared:
[Golden Bell Shield*: Beginner]
Unlike the other entries, the Golden Bell Shield entry had an asterisk in the upper right corner. Yue Feng clicked the asterisk with his mind, and a small dialog box popped up:
"This technique is a version improved by Huang Shang of the Song Dynasty. It only shares the same name as the Golden Bell Cover external technique circulating in the martial arts world, but it is completely different in reality."
After Yue Feng clicked, the asterisk disappeared. Yue Feng was stunned on the spot.
According to the system, this seemingly insignificant Golden Bell Cover manual is actually a skill recorded in the Nine Yin Manual!
If Yue Feng remembered correctly, Chen Xuanfeng and Mei Chaofeng, who were known as "Bronze Corpse" and "Iron Corpse" in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes," had only mastered a smattering of this skill, yet they were already able to roam the martial arts world with impunity.
What would happen if he used all his access points to max it out?
Thinking of this, Yue Feng started adding points without saying a word.
[Remaining Access Points: 60]
[Golden Bell Shield: Beginner]
Yue Feng spent 20 skill points, but only raised his Golden Bell Shield cultivation from "beginner" to "entry-level." The same 20 skill points could directly lead to mastery of Huashan Qi Gong at the entry-level. Even if the Golden Bell Shield were a divine skill from the Nine Yin Manual, wouldn't it be far too expensive?
Keep adding points! All in!
[Remaining Access Points: 10]
[Golden Bell Cover: Minor Success]
Yue Feng spent another 50 points to barely upgrade the Golden Bell Shield to the minor level.
The moment the points were added, Yue Feng felt a solid force burst forth from within his Qi Sea, surging through his bones, muscles, and meridians, bringing him immense comfort wherever it went.
This pleasant feeling completely changed Yue Feng's heartache from spending 70 Tongda Points in one go, and he couldn't help but smile with satisfaction!
Yue Feng let out a long breath and stopped adding points.
The remaining 10 access points are so difficult to even make a splash if we keep trying, we might as well save our breath.
I thought I had plenty of access points, so why are they suddenly not enough?
Yue Feng considered where to earn some more money, and as he thought about it, he thought of Laudenau.
He caused trouble and displayed his martial arts skills along the way, all to alert Lao Denuo and provoke him into taking action. Otherwise, how could he act if Lao Denuo didn't move? If he didn't move, the Huashan Sect couldn't progress and would always be under the surveillance of the Songshan Sect.
As for directly killing Laudenau, that's not impossible, but compared to entrapment, the benefits of such an operation would certainly not satisfy Yue Feng's appetite.
If you're going to do something, do it big!
Yue Feng deliberately distanced himself from Laudenuo this time in order to give him enough space and time to do what he wanted.
It's almost time.
Yue Feng lit a candle and burned the Golden Bell Cover manual to ashes before leaving.
……
Several days later, at the Drunken Flower Pavilion in Yuxi Town.
Hearing familiar footsteps outside the door, Xuan'er gently bit her cherry lips and carefully adjusted the sheer veil that was barely visible on her body.
As the town's most famous courtesan, she knew how to please her customers. Her skills not only brought her fame and fortune but also brought joy to her patrons.
Therefore, despite being in a brothel, she remained confident in her own worth until she met the man outside the door.
This man, who called himself Yue Feng, had kept her for three whole days, but all he did was make her serve tea and water, doing menial tasks usually reserved for maids. Occasionally, when he was in a good mood, he would tease her a little, getting her aroused, but he would never actually do anything. It was infuriating.
If I hadn't secretly checked him while he was sleeping, I would have really suspected he was a eunuch. But he wasn't. Since he wasn't, he had no reason to do this to me; otherwise, where would I, the dignified courtesan, put my dignity?
I absolutely have to get him to take me tonight! Otherwise... otherwise I'll take him!
Yue Feng pushed open the door and entered, bringing with him a faint smell of blood. Xuan'er hated the smell of blood, but she pretended not to smell it and served Yue Feng bathing and changing clothes with utmost care and tenderness, just like a virtuous and gentle wife.
After finally getting ready, Xuan'er looked at the increasingly handsome young man in front of her, her eyes misty and almost dripping with tears.
"Good little brother, will you sleep with your sister tonight? Sister will do anything..."
Yue Feng clicked his tongue, about to reprimand the arrogant woman, when a shout from Sichuan dialect suddenly rang out downstairs.
"Who's your top courtesan here? Call her down here right now to serve me, or I'll smash up this lousy place!"
Upon hearing this, Xuan'er turned pale with fright and buried herself in Yue Feng's arms. Yue Feng comforted her curvaceous body for a while, noticing her unusual trembling, and softly asked, "What's wrong?"
Xuan'er said, trembling, "That person...it was him...he stabbed Wei'er to death with a sword. Wei'er was my sister, she..."
Yue Feng sealed Xuan'er's lips with one index finger.
"Alright, that's enough."
Just when we were worried about not having enough delivery points, the delivery person arrived.
Yue Feng gently pushed Xuan'er away and stood up, but was suddenly grabbed tightly by Xuan'er.
"No...don't go! That person is incredibly powerful, and he has a huge backer, I think it's called...the Qingcheng Sect. Go away! I won't let you sleep with me anymore, go away!"
Yue Feng pried open Xuan'er's fingers one by one.
"Find a place where no one can see you, and keep a close watch."
He stroked Xuan'er's cheek, opened the window, and stepped out. This was the second floor of the Drunken Flower Pavilion. Below the window was a small river with patches of reeds.
Yue Feng leaped out of the window, lightly tapped the reeds a few times, and was already on the front of the Drunken Flower Pavilion. There were masks for sale by the roadside, and Yue Feng bought a red Shura mask, put it on his face, and then slowly walked into the gate of the Drunken Flower Pavilion.
