I have a little bit of talent

Although Fang Mu became a disciple of Taoist Chen Wei yesterday and a true disciple of Baiyun Temple, he is still only at the Grandmaster level. Even though he has extraordinary combat power, he is still far from the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top of the Head. Naturally, he is not qualified to enter the fifth floor of the Taoist Canon Pavilion and come into contact with the art of formations.

“Although the first three levels are all Taoist classics and do not contain any unique skills, they are the foundation of our sect and are of utmost importance.

"All the magical skills and unique skills in our sect were all comprehended by our predecessors from these Taoist classics. Disciple Yi Ming, although you have built your foundation with the Taixu Yangshen Zhenjing, and your foundation is strong and deep, and you have already comprehended the true meaning, you still need to read the classics more and understand the principles, and you will definitely gain something."

The three of them climbed up the ladder and soon reached the fourth floor where the skills were stored. However, Taoist Chen Wei instead advised Fang Mu to read more Taoist classics on the first three floors.

"Disciple knows that I will come to Daozang Pavilion more often to recite scriptures in the future."

Taoist Chen Wei's words were very true, and Fang Mu readily agreed.

The reason why Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism have become the orthodox religions in the world is mainly due to their countless classics. In addition, for thousands of years, many predecessors have carried on the tradition, filled in the old and added the new, constantly supplemented their own theories and concepts, wrote classics, and passed them down to later generations.

The basis of all the magical skills, secret techniques and unique skills is these seemingly inconspicuous classic books.

Fang Mu had lived two lives, so he naturally knew this very well. Even the three unique skills of Zhongzheng Fist, Dengtian Footwork, and Zhanshen Sword Technique created by Fang Lu were all created by him by combining and understanding many classics. Fang Mu's own Kaitian style was created by combining the foundation of two lives.

If one wants to reach a high level of cultivation, one must have sufficient understanding of the heaven and earth, and most of this understanding comes from these many classics.

To put it bluntly, you still need to read more!

"It's good that I understand. The stronger your foundation is, the higher your future achievements will be. You must not slack off."

Seeing Fang Mu's unusually serious expression, Taoist Chen Wei just nodded slightly.

Having said that, he has fulfilled his responsibility as a teacher. As for how Fang Mu will do it, it depends on his next behavior. Taoist disciples have always been free to practice freely. Even if Fang Mu does not read these Taoist classics, he will not interfere.

In fact, when all the disciples of Baiyun Temple entered the Daozang Pavilion for the first time to choose their skills, he would give them some reminders, but only a few people could really listen. Most of the disciples only focused on practicing their skills and ignored the Taoist classics. It was not until they reached a certain level of practice that they realized that they could not make any progress due to their lack of foundation, and then they shifted their focus to these Taoist classics.

Not to mention others, even Taoist Chen Wei himself was like this, so he did not take Fang Mu's words to heart. It would hinder his practice in the future, so he would naturally understand what he said today.

The Baiyun Temple on Qingxu Peak has been passed down for thousands of years, and the magical skills and unique skills that exist are truly innumerable. Fang Mu took a glance and found that the layout of the fourth floor of this Taoist temple was almost exactly the same as the first floor. The densely packed bookshelves were spotless. Although most of the bookshelves only had a small number of books scattered on them, there were still thousands of books.

Thousands of books mean thousands of martial arts. This number alone is somewhat shocking. Even if more than 90% of them are ordinary methods or incomplete methods, the remaining superior methods probably number in the dozens or even hundreds, far more than ordinary sects. It is worthy of the name of the Taoist holy land.

Taoist Chenxuan, as the elder who teaches martial arts at Baiyun Temple, usually stays in the Taoist Pavilion except for practicing in his own cave. Naturally, he is very familiar with its layout and the locations of all the magical skills.

While Fang Mu was talking to Taoist Chen Wei, he went straight to the deepest bookshelf, picked up three books of martial arts, and came in front of Fang Mu.

"Junior Brother Yi Ming, the Taixu Yangshen Zhenjing is the highest spiritual training method of our sect. Since you have already mastered this method, you naturally do not need any other spiritual training methods. You only need to continue to hone your soul according to this method.

"But I see that you don't seem to have any self-protection skills. Although your physique is perfect and your foundation is solid, it lacks perfection. So I have selected these skills for you. Take a look at them and see if they are suitable for you."

Taoist Chen Xuan is worthy of being an elder who teaches martial arts. Although he just made a test move at the door of Taoist Pavilion, he found that Fang Mu was just relying on his physique far superior to that of ordinary people to take his punches, and there was no sign of him practicing any self-defense skills. So he took the initiative to select three self-defense methods for Fang Mu.

"Master, I have indeed never practiced any self-defense techniques. Thank you, uncle."

Fang Mu was overjoyed when he heard this, and bowed deeply to Taoist Chen Xuan, feeling quite grateful in his heart.

Although the several magical skills he practiced could train his body, they did not have any self-defense skills. He had been fighting with others all along, relying on his profound true meaning, supreme spirit, and unparalleled physique. He had long been envious of others who had the blessing of self-defense skills and greatly increased their defense.

Just like the old nun Wu Chen, who practiced the Vajra Indestructible Skill and comprehended the true meaning of Vajra, her golden body was revealed and she became invincible. No matter how Fang Mu attacked, it was difficult to break her defense. If Fang Mu had not used the God-Slaying Sword to break her golden body, he really would not be able to do anything to her.

What he had learned covered body movements, boxing techniques, and sword techniques, but the only thing he lacked was the self-defense method for fighting the enemy head-on.

In fact, he had the idea of ​​practicing self-defense skills a long time ago, but ordinary self-defense skills were of no use to his current physique, and superior self-defense methods that were useful to him were difficult to obtain, so he had this idea temporarily.

At this time, Taoist Chenxuan personally selected a method of self-defense for him, which was like handing him a pillow when he was sleepy. How could he not be happy?

"The Star-Moving Divine Art, the Mysterious Heaven and Earth Art, the Great Beginning Return to the Ultimate Art. Junior Brother, you have brought out the most powerful self-defense divine art that our sect has ever had."

Taoist Chen Wei saw the three skills in Taoist Chen Xuan's hands, his eyelids twitched a few times, and he said helplessly:

"These three self-defense techniques are all extremely advanced, and they are all extremely difficult to practice. You're using them all in one go, isn't that a bit too exaggerated?"

Although he knew that his junior fellow apprentice had a very good relationship with Fang Lu, he did not expect that he would take out three protective skills and give them to Fang Mu in one breath. He was really speechless.

"Three gates are good, Master." Seeing that Taoist Chen Wei was somewhat opposed to him practicing three self-defense techniques at once, Fang Mu spoke quickly.

"I have a pretty good talent and can practice very quickly. It would be a waste of time if I really had to practice one by one."

"That's right, Senior Brother. My nephew has reached the Grandmaster level at such a young age. How can one technique be enough for him to practice? I even feel that three techniques are a bit too few."

Taoist Chen Xuan also responded with a smile, and at the same time raised his eyebrows and winked at Fang Mu. Fang Mu secretly gave a thumbs up and praised his uncle.

"Alright, alright, take them all. Since you, the elder who teaches the skills, have made the decision, why would I object?"

Taoist Chen Wei naturally could not be hidden from the two's little tricks. He resisted the urge to roll his eyes and allowed Fang Mu to accept the three self-defense skills.

He knew that Fang Mu was a young master with extraordinary talent, but he was somewhat cautious and wanted Fang Mu to practice slowly and steadily so as not to rush things.

But since Fang Mu himself was willing to learn the three methods, and Taoist Chen Xuan was in charge, he didn't bother to care about it.

"Now that you have chosen your technique, you can go to the mountain and find a cave to practice. There are not many disciples in my sect now, so there are plenty of caves. Just don't disturb other disciples in their practice.

"If you have any questions about cultivation, just come and find me. If you have nothing else to do, please don't bother me."

Seeing Fang Mu put the three martial arts secret manuals into the mustard seed space, Taoist Chen Wei glared and ordered him to leave.
