The young man, Lin Pingzhi, hesitated for a long time but ultimately agreed to the conditions set by the youth, Bai Tang. This was because Lin Pingzhi discovered that his father had also practiced the family’s Exorcism Sword Technique, but it seemed rather mediocre. In contrast, he had witnessed his master's martial arts firsthand, as he had been rescued from two formidable villains in an instant. His master must be the top expert in the martial world that his father often mentioned.
Thinking of this, Lin Pingzhi knelt down and bowed three times to Bai Tang, becoming Bai Tang's fifth disciple.
"Pingzhi, I have matters to attend to and cannot teach you martial arts immediately. You should return home for now. After ten days, I will come to find you," Bai Tang said.
After accepting Lin Pingzhi as a disciple, Bai Tang realized he did not have suitable martial arts techniques to teach him. The "Nine Yin Manual" and "Complete Truth Sword Technique" were both part of the Huashan Sect's teachings and could not be taught to Lin Pingzhi to avoid future complications. While it was possible to purchase martial arts Secret Manuals in the marketplace, they were too expensive. It would be better to find some advanced martial arts Secret Manuals in this world. Bai Tang was very familiar with the world created by Jin Da, knowing exactly where to find martial arts Secret Manuals.
After leaving Fujian, Bai Tang's first stop was Peach Blossom Island. Unfortunately, Peach Blossom Island had completely fallen into ruin; the pages of books from hundreds of years ago had turned to ashes, and its martial arts had been entirely lost. His second stop was a valley in Kunlun Mountain. This time luck was on his side because wrapped in oiled paper were well-preserved copies of "Nine Yang Divine Skill," "Hu Qingniu's Medical Classic," and "Wang Nangu's Poison Classic." The third stop was Lingjiu Palace on Miao Peak, which had also fallen into disrepair. Fortunately, the stone chamber where the mountain witch carved martial arts still had remnants. Bai Tang found several techniques there, including Lingbo Weibu, Mountain Folding Plum Hand, and Life and Death Talisman. He selected Lingbo Weibu and Mountain Six Yang Palm for Lin Pingzhi. The Mountain Six Yang Palm was one of the few powerful palm techniques from the Xiaoyao Sect, perfectly suited for Lin Pingzhi's foundation in "Nine Yang Divine Skill."
Ten days later, Bai Tang returned to Fuzhou. Under the bright moonlight, he stealthily entered the Fuwei Escort Agency and easily found his disciple.
"Master, why did you come so late?" Lin Pingzhi rubbed his eyes and yawned.
"As soon as I arrived in Fuzhou, I came to find you without paying attention to the time," Bai Tang replied.
"Then Master, please sit in my room for a while; I will go wake my parents," Lin Pingzhi said as he put on his outer garment and prepared to leave when Bai Tang stopped him.
"No need; it's too late. We can meet them another time!" Bai Tang instructed. "In the future, unless your life is threatened, do not expose the skills I taught you."
"Why?" Lin Pingzhi asked in confusion.
Because it's fun! At this stage, keeping Lin Pingzhi's martial arts hidden would allow for a dramatic reveal when the Qingcheng Sect comes to attack later on—he would unleash his skills and astonish everyone.
"There’s no need for so many questions; just do as I say," Bai Tang raised his eyebrows. "Otherwise, I will expel you from my sect!"
"I will absolutely follow Master’s orders and not easily reveal the skills you taught me!" The young man immediately promised seriously. "Master, if I use your skills in a crisis situation later on, will I no longer have to hide them?"
"That's right!" Bai Tang tossed six books at Lin Pingzhi. "Practice according to what’s written inside; if you don’t understand anything, come ask me. I will stay in Fuzhou City for a month."
"Master, are you leaving?" the young man exclaimed.
"I'm not a local from Fuzhou, of course I have to leave."
"But, but aren't you going to teach me martial arts?"
"I've already given you the Secret Manual; can't you practice on your own? Besides, I've stayed an extra month just to help you with your questions," Bai Tang said with a look that conveyed how good he had been to the boy.
The young man felt his master's unreliability. Could he change to another master? Certainly not; he could only seize the time to learn the techniques.
The names of the martial arts—Nine Yang Divine Skill, Mountain Six Yang Palm, and Ling Bo Weibu—were all unfamiliar! Why were there also medical books and poison manuals?
"Master, do I need to study these two medical books and the poison manual as well?"
"Of course! The more skills you learn, the more security you have. Who knows, maybe one day you can become a renowned doctor in the martial world thanks to these medical books and poison manuals," Bai Tang replied. "Don't underestimate these two texts; Hu Qingniu was the most skilled physician during the late Yuan dynasty and was known as the Butterfly Valley Medical Immortal. Wang Nangu was Hu Qingniu's wife and was exceptionally skilled in poison techniques. It is a blessing for you to be able to learn their skills!"
Lin Pingzhi's eyes sparkled with excitement. If these medical books and poison manuals had such impressive backgrounds, then the other three martial arts Secret Manuals must be extraordinary too!
Bai Tang noticed what the young man was thinking and said, "The Nine Yang Divine Skill is an ultimate martial art Secret Manual, renowned alongside the Nine Yin Manual as two of the greatest texts. No internal cultivation methods in today's martial world, including Ren Woxing's Star Absorption Technique from the Sun Moon Holy Cult, the Purple Cloud Skill of Mount Hua, or even Zuo Lengchan's Xuanbing Internal Power from Songshan, can compare to the Nine Yang Divine Skill and Nine Yin Manual. If you cultivate it successfully, you will become a top master in the martial world; if you reach great mastery, even the leaders of Shaolin and Wudang won't be your match. Ling Bo Weibu is based on the sixty-four hexagrams of the I Ching; users step according to a specific sequence along the hexagram positions, completing a large circle from the first step to the last. This footwork is incredibly exquisite and allows practitioners to evade numerous enemy attacks. Moreover, each step of Ling Bo Weibu is closely related to internal power and can aid in cultivating internal energy. During the Northern Song period, Emperor Duan Yu of Dali practiced this light skill; although his martial arts were inconsistent, he survived many life-and-death situations thanks to this light skill. The Mountain Six Yang Palm is an ultimate technique of the Xianxia Sect..."
Once he started talking, Bai Tang went on from Dragon Eight Steps all the way to The Legend of Condor Heroes until dawn broke. Lin Pingzhi was left wanting more and asked Bai Tang.
"Master, our sect is indeed Xianxia Sect, right?"
"That's right!"
Lin Pingzhi was thrilled upon hearing this. The Xianxia Sect was such an impressive sect; although it wasn't well-known in the martial world, it had profound roots. Lin Pingzhi envied Xu Zhu immensely; now that he was also a disciple of Xianxia Sect, would he become a top master like Xu Zhu one day? Would he lead his fellow disciples and marry a princess, reaching the pinnacle of life...
Lin Pingzhi's comprehension and talent were quite good. In just one month, he had already cultivated the first level of Nine Yang Divine Skill and had grasped the basics of Mountain Six Yang Palm. His best skill was Ling Bo Weibu; relying solely on this light skill, he had gone back and forth to Fu Wei Escort without being noticed by anyone. Lin Zhenan knew that his son had taken Bai Tang as his master but had no idea how skilled his son had become since Lin Pingzhi never displayed his martial arts in front of outsiders. Feeling uneasy about this, he thought about having his son learn their family’s traditional martial arts; however, Lin Pingzhi's master forbade him from learning the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique. Lin Zhenan felt frustrated—was their family's sword technique going to be lost? Mrs. Lin noticed her husband’s frustration and after asking him about it laughed and offered to pass down the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique to their grandson. With "his grandson's encouragement," Lin Zhenan no longer worried about his son's martial arts and adopted a more relaxed approach towards him. Without his father watching closely, Lin Pingzhi could freely practice the techniques Bai Tang taught him. In his spare time, Lin Pingzhi studied medical books and poison manuals; although his comprehension in these areas wasn't as strong as in martial arts, over time both skills improved significantly...
Finally, having collected all the fragments of the Time-Space Gate, Bai Tang hurriedly initiated time travel. She had spent nearly half a year in Laughing Proudly in the World, while only a week had passed in the real world. Bai Tang chose to travel to a warehouse, which had long been emptied by the people from Beijing Base. The zombies that were originally inside had been eliminated by Bai Tang, but after a week, a new batch had gathered. Bai Tang quickly dispatched these zombies and noticed that their strength had increased again. It was better to head to the future world quickly! Bai Tang activated the Time-Space Gate once more!
Sun Senwen was now the largest food tycoon in the galaxy. He recreated Earth's cuisine in space, enriching the dining culture of future people. Nutritional supplements had been removed from ordinary people's diets and were only retained for military use during missions. It had been over twenty years since Bai Tang left the future world, and Sun Senwen was now in his fifties, yet he showed no signs of aging. He got married over ten years ago and had three children: two boys and one girl. His eldest child was already ten years old, and life was very happy.
After finishing his official business, Sun Senwen set up a lounge chair outside in the yard to bask in the sun and rest. For some reason, he thought of his hometown friend who had left this world. Officially, Bai Tang was said to be on an interstellar adventure; only he knew that she had returned to their original world. Occasionally reminiscing about that world made Sun Senwen quite nostalgic. He missed the teachers and children at the orphanage the most and wondered how they were doing. Had the five million yuan he entrusted to Bai Tang been delivered to the orphanage? Had conditions improved there? It should have! He still trusted Bai Tang's character; she wouldn't tarnish his five million!
"Senwen, what are you thinking about?" Sun Senwen's wife asked. His wife was from a branch of the Ye family and met him through Ye Hua. She was strong-willed, gentle, and virtuous—a rare good woman from a prominent family with many suitors. One of her hobbies was enjoying gourmet food, which was why Sun Senwen managed to win her over against other competitors.
"I'm thinking about an old friend!" Sun Senwen came back to his senses and replied.
"Is it a man or a woman?" Sun Senwen's wife asked curiously, "Do I know them?"
"A woman; you don't know her!" Sun Senwen chuckled.
Sun Senwen's wife pretended to be jealous: "Which beauty are you thinking about? Be honest! Otherwise, you won't be allowed in the bedroom tonight!"
"Please spare me, my dear wife!"
