Chapter 146 Nothing is difficult in the world as long as you are willing to give up
Dan Tianxie's mind was racing. Finally, he began massaging his temples with his fingers.
It's too early to think about these things now; let's wait until we find Cheng Shifei's whereabouts before making any decisions.
With Eunuch Cao's token in hand, the most difficult hurdle has been overcome.
Then, Shan Tianxie sat cross-legged and continued to comprehend the Flying Immortal Sword Intent. Although he had failed before, Shan Tianxie wanted to give it one last chance!
Although there are various ways to quickly generate a number before the Grandmaster level, whether it is a first-class master, a top master, or a master of innate ability.
For example, there are unorthodox martial arts like the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique. As long as you are ruthless enough to eliminate the root of all troubles, you don't need to worry about anything else.
With direct internal force converted into true qi, becoming a master of innate level overnight is not difficult.
Furthermore, the Star Absorbing Technique he is currently practicing allows him to absorb other people's internal energy, making his cultivation level rise as quickly as eating and drinking.
In just a few months, he went from a top-tier expert to the late stage of the Innate Realm without any effort, a speed that can only be described as divine.
However, this approach doesn't work as well at the grandmaster level.
The concept of artistic conception is very mysterious; it either works or it doesn't.
Even if he absorbs the inner strength and true energy of hundreds of people and integrates them into himself, he will never reach the Grandmaster level without comprehending the essence on his own!
As for the Heavenly Pool Eccentric Swordsman's Absorption Technique, although it is said to be able to absorb the essence, energy, and spirit of others, it is suspected that it can help people cheat their way into the Grandmaster realm.
However, Shan Tianxie always felt that absorbing other people's power was fine, but it would be a different story if he also accepted other people's understanding of the essence of things.
I'm afraid I'll only ever be able to struggle at the lowest level of master level for the rest of my life.
In the path of martial arts, it's okay to take shortcuts in the early stages, but once you reach the level of a grandmaster, the gap between the strong and the weak becomes as vast as an insurmountable chasm.
However, even the weakest Grandmaster is not someone who can be fooled by those at the Innate Realm.
......
After a stick of incense.
Dan Tianxie slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of turbid air. He gave up in three consecutive "forget it, I give up, it really won't work."
As the old saying goes, nothing in this world is difficult if you are willing to give up.
Ye Gucheng's Flying Immortal Sword Intent is clearly a sword intent that belongs exclusively to him.
Without that feeling of loneliness at the top, others simply cannot comprehend his sword intent.
As my elder brother once said, every master's path is unique.
The path to becoming a grandmaster is actually about finding the path that suits you and discovering the emotions that resonate within your own heart.
Then it was incorporated into martial arts, so that every move of martial arts was full of its own flavor.
So what exactly is the path I want to take?
It is the path to hegemony, where one can wield power over the world while asleep and rest one's head on the lap of a beautiful woman.
I remain steadfast and carefree, watching the world's changing fortunes with a smile.
Or perhaps it's the exhilarating feeling of killing one person in ten steps without leaving a trace for a thousand miles.
After pondering for a long time, Shan Tianxie finally let out a soft sigh.
He thought to himself that he still lacked experience!
Thinking of this, he slowly stood up, a solemn look on his face, and muttered to himself.
"Nothing ventured, nothing gained. It seems my experience in the mortal world is still insufficient. I should ask Ouyang Xiaoyue to make some arrangements for me later."
Having figured everything out, Shan Tianxie slowly walked towards the door, each step heavy with worry.
It was as if what awaited him ahead was not a variety of beautiful women, but a mountain of knives and a sea of fire.
Before Shan Tianxie could even reach the hall, Xi Yu, who had gone to investigate earlier, had already returned.
"Young Master, the person has been found!"
"It's drizzling," Xi Yu said with a smile.
"what?"
Dan Tianxie was stunned for a moment. This was the first time he had ever hated the inefficiency of his subordinates so much. However, he remained calm and spoke indifferently.
"Fine Rain, this matter is of great importance. You mustn't make a mistake. Should we investigate and confirm it again?"
"No need."
Xi Yu shook her head firmly, then confidently recounted all the information she had gathered.
"My men have sent word that the young master is looking for Cheng Shifei, a man who has been frequenting the Chang Le gambling den lately."
Beside him was a fellow named Zhang Laosan, who had lost a lot of money that day; if it went any later, they'd probably be sold to the palace.
Xi Yu then added, "According to the investigation, the owner of Chang Le Gambling House has always had a cooperative relationship with Eunuch Sun of the Imperial Household Department."
Anyone who owed gambling debts at the Chang Le gambling den, as long as they were good-looking, would be sold to Eunuch Sun to become a eunuch. The more handsome and fair-skinned the man, the higher the price he could fetch!
"Ah."
Dan Tianxie thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
It seems the plot has just reached the point where Cheng Shifei is in debt from the casino and then sold out by Zhang Laosan. We really can't afford to delay any longer.
If Cheng Shifei were to crawl through a dog hole and encounter Gu Santong, he would obtain Gu Santong's martial arts skills and the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill.
Then what use is he? Wasn't the token's greatest purpose was wasted?
Thinking of this, Shan Tianxie stopped thinking about tempering his heart in the mortal world and could only comfort himself that there would be many more opportunities like this in the future.
We can't always run into these kinds of emergencies!
Then, with a light drizzle in tow, they charged towards the Chang Le gambling den.
......
As soon as Shan Tianxie and Xi Yu reached the entrance of the gambling den, they heard a commotion and shouts coming from inside.
As the noise grew louder, suddenly, with a loud crash, the gambling den's doors were violently kicked open from the inside.
Then a figure shot out like a cannonball, and then crashed heavily to the ground with a "thud," instantly kicking up a cloud of dust.
However, to be fair, the young man who fell down has really good physical fitness.
Although he was thrown out of the gambling den, he was unharmed and immediately got up to run away.
Only after the young man stood up could Shan Tianxie clearly see what he looked like.
The man had slightly yellow curly hair and wore a dark blue cloth robe with several patches in inconspicuous places, clearly indicating that he came from a poor family.
Dan Tianxie narrowed his eyes slightly. Who else could this person be but Cheng Shifei?
Before they could even make a clean getaway, they were tackled to the ground by several burly men who rushed out of the gambling den.
"Don't hit me, grandpa. I didn't mean to cheat. I just wanted to win back my losses."
Although Cheng Shifei was pinned to the spot, he continued to explain.
"Make a comeback?"
A man with a mustache walked out of the gambling den and slowly approached Cheng Shifei.
The man slowly squatted down, slapping Cheng Shifei's face repeatedly with his palms, making a loud slapping sound, and then said with a gloomy expression.
"People should follow the rules in their conduct and actions. You broke the rules in my territory."
"If I, Li Sanpao, don't keep your hand here today, do you think any other customers will dare to come here?"
