Ou Peng took a sip of water and moistened his throat, "I just told you about the way of immortality, and now I will talk about annihilation."

"I just told you that the cultivators, demon cultivators and demon cultivators are based on the cultivation of heaven and earth, but the methods and forms are different. We don't know how many years our four sects have passed on. Until ten thousand years ago, there was no idea why the earth was shaken and the sea changed. Then, the world changed. Not only did the four major sects realize it, but even countless small sects discovered that the vital energy of heaven and earth in this world gradually began to change and became thinner."

"This heaven and earth vitality is the foundation of the immortal path. Without the vitality, the immortal path cannot exist at all. Therefore, whether it is cultivating immortals or demons, they abandoned the barriers and grievances and worked together to find the reasons for the lack of heaven and earth vitality. However, after the efforts of countless people, they could not find the root cause. They could only watch the heaven and earth vitality as little as one day, until the end, the heaven and earth vitality in the entire world disappeared, and the immortal path was also annihilated."

Zhang Chengyue was a little surprised and said, "Didn't the four ancestors of immortal cultivation come to us using that 'teleportation array'? Then use that thing to leave?"

Ou Peng smiled and said, "The cultivators have also considered this matter. However, that thing can be entered but not exited, and this 'teleportation array' is not easy to build. After countless cultivators have tried their best to build it, there is no more heaven and earth energy used on this 'teleportation array'. It is difficult for all the skillful women of the cultivators to cook without rice. They can only look at this 'teleportation array' with their eyes and cannot be used."

"Oh" Zhang Chengyue was also worried about the ancients. Seeing the meat he could not eat, he must be extremely regretful.

"Then what, Master, the immortal path has been destroyed. Should the martial arts come out?"

"Yes, the energy of heaven and earth is gone, and the cultivator loses his supernatural powers, so he will naturally think of other ways to make up for it. This martial arts is something that great wise men have found unique ways to make up for it based on their experience in cultivating immortals. Look at the inner mental method, many names are the same as those of cultivating immortals, such as meridians, true qi, dantian, etc., especially this true qi, which is simply not inferior to the true qi of cultivating immortals. That is to draw qi into the body, and this can actually be generated from the body. I admire it. Although its power is much smaller, it is much more powerful than ordinary people. Moreover, after tens of thousands of years of improvement, this top martial arts master is also comparable to that of Qi Refiners. Of course, the meridians of this internal mental method are the same as those of cultivating immortals. However, the power of the true qi in the internal mental method is limited, and it can only be practiced with basic and simple meridians. Those more profound meridians cannot be practiced."

Zhang Chengyue thought about it and asked again: "Where are the boxing techniques, sword techniques and gun techniques?"

When Ou Peng heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "When it comes to boxing, there is another interesting thing. When I practiced martial arts with your master, I accidentally asked about the origin of this boxing. Your master told me that the boxing in this world evolved from a set of 360-stroke Great Zhoutian Star Fist. It was a hermit who was practicing boxing under a Bodhi tree and taught it to different people. This formed different schools of boxing. There were also many swords and gun techniques that evolved from the first set of boxing in the world. In fact, I had a question at that time. Since only that hermit who was able to do this set of complete Great Zhoutian Star Fist, others were all written with a scale and a half claw, then who knew that this Great Zhoutian Star Fist had 360 moves?"

Zhang Chengyue suddenly realized.

Ou Peng continued: "But, your master left after telling the story. The Piaomiao step made it extremely fast. How could I catch up with it? Later, I didn't have the chance to ask. Until I took over the Piaomiao Sect, I got the real answer from his mouth. Although this Great Zhoutian Star Fist is not the first set of boxing techniques in the world, it is the only set of boxing techniques that the cultivator does not use the vital energy of heaven and earth. All the fighting skills of the cultivator are based on the vital energy of heaven and earth, and can retain this only set without using it.

The boxing technique of heaven and earth's vitality shows the preciousness of this boxing technique. Therefore, after the annihilation of the immortal path, many boxing techniques cannot be used, or have no effect. Only the Great Zhoutian Star Fist is popular and there is no "fist" to compare. However, the Great Zhoutian Star Fist is the boxing technique of the Divine Knife Sect. After the Divine Knife Sect disappeared, other sects did not learn it completely, and there was no complete record of the boxing score. Therefore, countless boxing techniques evolved based on the incomplete Great Zhoutian Star Fist."

Speaking of this, Zhang Chengyue understood and said, "Master, no wonder you value Zhang Xiaohua so much. Is it his boxing technique, the Great Zhoutian Star Fist?"

Ou Peng shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be. The Great Zhoutian Star Fist has 360 moves, and his Beidou Shenfu only has 108 moves. However, even if it is not the real Great Zhoutian Star Fist, if it is the 108 moves inside, it should be very powerful. There must be some secrets inside."

Zhang Chengyue asked again: "What about other swordsmanship and marksmanship?"

Ou Peng said: "The cultivators fight with swords, swords, guns, swords, and guns. However, these things must be matched with the heaven and earth vital energy to have power, otherwise they will be just empty-handed. Therefore, many aspiring people have evolved some moves of the Great Zhoutian Star Fist into swordsmanship, gunsmanship, etc. Therefore, the Great Zhoutian Star Fist is the source of moves, to a certain extent, it is also possible. Of course, the true qi formed by the heaven and earth vital energy, but now it is the true qi formed in their meridians. This move has long changed in the evolution of thousands of years, and no one can say whose moves are the most correct."

"Where are those seniors who cultivate immortals?"

"Oh, the basis for their longevity is the essence of heaven and earth. Without this vitality, they age very quickly like ordinary people. By the way, it is said that in addition to the vitality of heaven and earth, there are also some essence of heaven and earth condensed into stone, called Yuanshi. Many immortal cultivators eventually rely on Yuanshi to extend their lifespan."

"Huh? Master, didn't you just say that they all created a 'teleportation array'. Can't this Yuanshi provide it with the support of the Yuanshi?"

Ou Peng nodded and said with relief: "Cheng Yue, you are very keen. When you were reading it, you didn't pay attention to it. You just saw the records in the secret book and realized that before the immortal path was annihilated, the Yuan stone contained a lot of vitality, which was divided into high-quality Yuan stones, medium-quality Yuan stones and low-quality Yuan stones. But when the immortal path was annihilated, it seemed that these Yuan stones could not be found at all. The Yuan stones collected by the four major sects disappeared. Even the lower-quality Yuan stones were difficult to find. The Yuan stones of all sects gathered together, which was not enough to use, so there was no question of using the Yuan stones. The Yuan stones that cultivators maintained their lifespan were just the Yuan stone scraps that they had never looked at before!"

Zhang Chengyue suddenly thought of something and asked, "Master, the floating technique in the third level of Piaomiao Sect that you asked me to get back from He Tianshu last time is the technique used by immortal cultivators?"

Ou Peng smiled and said, "Yes, although the immortal way is annihilated, the immortal way's martial arts have been passed down. Our Piaomiao Sect is the four major sects ten thousand years ago, and naturally there are records of immortal way's martial arts. This floating technique is truly a magic that can fly around and fly by cultivators in the past. The light body technique we practice is a light body technique modified by the sect's great wisdom predecessors based on the floating technique and internal strength. In fact, ten thousand years ago, many sects also had traces of immortal cultivation skills. However, these techniques are useless. Without the vitality of heaven and earth, no one can practice it, so they can be annihilated like immortal way. What remains are just fakes that imitate these techniques."

"Oh, think about it, I used to be a well and watched the sky. I thought that what I had practiced was an invincible martial art. Now, it's just a fake of other people's immortal cultivation. I'm really ignorant." Zhang Chengyue sighed.

Ou Peng disagreed and said, "One time and another time, without the energy of heaven and earth, the cultivator is also unable to tie a chicken's strength and can only wait for annihilation. Now is the era of martial arts."

"By the way, Master, you seemed to be talking to yourself just now, the world is about to change. What does that mean?"

When Ou Peng heard this question, he immediately became energetic and said, "Cheng Yue, didn't I just say that these five forbidden areas are the five holy places of my Piaomiao Sect. In the place where the immortal cultivators included things, they used something called formation to protect it. People without the ability to cultivate immortals cannot enter. The formations of these forbidden areas have been shrinking more and more for thousands of years, which means that the formation's own vitality is becoming increasingly rare. But today it suddenly expanded, which obviously absorbed the vitality of heaven and earth. Since the vitality of heaven and earth appeared, should the immortal cultivators also appear? Our Piaomiao Sect first obtained part of the Great Zhoutian Star Fist, and then learned the news that the vitality of heaven and earth appeared first. Naturally, there is more time to prepare. Perhaps in the transformation of the world, we will reverse the situation and create the glory of ten thousand years ago. Otherwise, we will inevitably be eliminated in this world like the Divine Sword Sect."

"Actually, do you know? Cheng Yue has another reason and an extremely favorable factor."

Zhang Chengyue was puzzled and said, "Please make it clear by your master."

"Haha, it's that secret place!" Ou Peng woke up the dreamer with one sentence.

Zhang Chengyue shook his head and said, "Master, I really didn't expect it."
