Each chest contained roughly two thousand taels of gold.
That was twenty thousand taels.
there were three chests of Martial Arts Secret Manuals.
The Divine Fist Sect, with a history spanning thousands of years, had produced two Masters, making it a top-tier major sect.
in terms of Martial Arts, the Divine Fist Sect was certainly not lacking.
The three chests of Martial Arts, when combined, amounted to several hundreds of volumes.
Gu Qingfeng had a cursory glance and found that most of these Martial Arts were related to Refining Skin and Blood Refining levels; above Blood Refining, starting with Bone Refining, the number of Martial Arts sharply decreased.
even with the Divine Fist Sect's deep legacy, there weren't many high-grade Martial Arts.
there still were a total of twenty-six high-grade Martial Arts.
If it had been before Gu Qingfeng had achieved Perfect Bone Refining, then those twenty-six high-grade Martial Arts would have been extremely important.
High-grade Martial Arts were of little use to him.
Perfect Bone Refining!
The reason for the term "perfect" being used
was to signify that this level could not be further improved upon.
Even if Gu Qingfeng were to practice hundreds or thousands of high-grade Martial Arts afterward, it wouldn't bring any further enhancement to himself.
was the difference between Perfect Bone Refining and ordinary Bone Refining.
beyond high-grade Martial Arts, there were some Extreme-grade Martial Arts and Extraordinary Martial Arts that pertained to Organ Refining.
there were six Extreme-grade Martial Arts.
Three Extraordinary Martial Arts.
one Master-level Martial Art.
"Prajnaparamita Sutra!"
"This is a Martial Art that leads directly to the level of Innate Grandmaster!"
Gu Qingfeng's eyebrows slightly raised.
It was truly the first Master-level Martial Art he had obtained.
Although Red Flame Divine Skill could also allow one to break through to the Master level, in terms of grade, it naturally could not compare to the Prajnaparamita Sutra before him.
Because the Prajnaparamita Sutra was not just capable of allowing one to break through to the Innate level, it pointed directly towards the Peak of Innate.
This Cultivation Technique was divided into thirteen layers.
The first nine layers were for cultivating below the Master level.
The last four layers pertained to the complete Innate Realm.
From the initial entry to the Peak of Innate, the Prajnaparamita Sutra had complete records of it.
based on this point alone,
the Prajnaparamita Sutra was much more precious than the Red Flame Divine Skill.
everything has two sides.
Even though the Prajnaparamita Sutra had a higher limit, if one were to speak solely of the difficulty in breaking through to Master level, undoubtedly the Red Flame Divine Skill was much simpler.
Gu Qingfeng glanced at his attribute panel.
Prajnaparamita Sutra (Not entered)!
This Martial Art had been completely recorded in the attribute panel.
Gu Peng gestured with his eyes for the others to step back, then took out a black iron-cast box from his bosom, which seemed airtight, with only a small hole on top that seemed to be for inserting a key.
"This is something subordinate found in the highest floor of the Divine Fist Sect's scripture library. There was no other Martial Arts there, only this box.
I feel that this box is extraordinary, it's just unfortunate that the key could not be found, hence I especially brought it for the manor master to examine!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Qingfeng's expression remained unchanged. He received the box and scrutinized it closely for a moment, then pinched hard with two fingers, only to find that the box didn't budge at all.
Such a level of sturdiness was enough to illustrate the extraordinariness of the black box.
After all, Gu Qingfeng's cultivation had reached a level that was nothing short of extraordinary. Even the strength in his two fingers weighed over ten thousand catties, and turning stones to powder was merely a trifling matter.
Gu Qingfeng's expression became much more serious, and then he channeled his strength from blood and qi. With a sudden force of his five fingers, the black box instantly caved in.
He forcefully pried the box apart with both hands.
The box immediately broke into two halves.
With the breaking of the box, the item inside also came into view.
A piece of cloth that looked like it was embroidered with golden thread, densely covered with text.
Gu Qingfeng withdrew his gaze.
"Hell Floating Scripture!"
This was the name of the Secret Technique recorded on the golden silk cloth.
This was a Secret Technique for Refining Evil into the body.
This technique was directly pointing to the God Fusion Realm.
If a successor hosted the Evil Spirit left behind by Shen Wudao's demise within their flesh body and later cultivated this Hell Floating Scripture, there was hope that they would one day break through the limits of the Spirit-controlling Realm and step into the God Fusion Realm.
It was a realm beyond the Spirit-controlling Realm.
"A Magician at the peak of the Spirit-controlling Realm is already comparable to an ordinary Master. If one steps into the God Fusion Realm, their strength would be at least at the level of a True Intent Master, and possibly even comparable to a Great Grandmaster."
"Shen Wudao did not step into such a level, otherwise the outcome of this battle would have been hard to predict."
"Like the Tianyang Sword Sect, there must be Magicians who have reached the God Fusion Realm, but as for whether there are any beyond the God Fusion Realm, that's a mystery—"
Gu Qingfeng pondered to himself.
Then he put away the Hell Floating Scripture.
The secret technique of Refining Evil into the body,
Gu Qingfeng naturally would not spread it.
However, from here, it could be seen that Duan Ping's purpose for coming here was probably for the Hell Floating Scripture and the Evil Spirit within Shen Wudao.
An Evil Spirit that could give one the chance to advance to the God Fusion Realm, along with the corresponding secret technique, their value naturally goes without saying.
Even if the Tianyang Sword Sect had Magicians in the God Fusion Realm, Gu Qingfeng believed that there wouldn't be too many at this level.
The man had not undergone Refining Evil into his body.
It was possible that the time was not right, or he was waiting for some special opportunity.
But no matter the reason, these were all insignificant now.
With Duan Ping's demise,
Everything had dissipated like smoke and clouds.
"Continue the search. The Divine Fist Sect produced a True Intent Master thousands of years ago, so it's very likely that there are remnants of a Master's True Intent or Martial Arts related to the Master level within the Sect.
The Prajnaparamita Sutra alone is certainly not all the Divine Fist Sect has!"
Gu Qingfeng looked at Gu Peng and spoke gravely.
The Divine Fist Sect was known in the Martial World for its Fist Skills, and thousands of years ago, they even produced a True Intent Master, which indicated that the Divine Fist Sect must possess a set of Martial Arts in Fist Skills.
It could be related to a Master's True Intent.
This was like the True Intent Map that the Gu Family Manor originally obtained.
In terms of preciousness, they were not inferior to the Prajnaparamita Sutra.
"Your subordinate will take care of it right away!"
Gu Peng immediately complied and left.
Gu Qingfeng continued to meditate on the profundities of the Prajnaparamita Sutra.
The thirteen layers of the Prajnaparamita Sutra.
If he could comprehend them, it would certainly take his strength even further.
As an ultimate skill at the Peak of Innate, building the foundation for each step, even if it wasn't perfect, would surely be extremely close.
The Perfect Marrow Cleansing and Perfect Organ Refining for Gu Qingfeng would become much easier later on.
Observing such ultimate skills,
Gu Qingfeng's qi and blood automatically adjusted, significantly reducing the difficulty in cultivating the corresponding level of Martial Arts with a perfect body.
In just less than a moment, Gu Qingfeng had successfully entered the Beginner's level of the first layer of the Prajnaparamita Sutra.
