Chapter 118: Chapter 118 Master''s Notebook

    Half a day''s work had passed.

    The entire Divine Fist Sect had been turned upside down.

    All the ancient calligraphy, paintings, and divine weapons had been taken away by Gu Qingfeng.

    Combining that with some silver, Gu Qingfeng estimated that he had plundered at least five million taels of silver from the Divine Fist Sect this time.

    It was hard to imagine.

    A sect could possess valuables worth five million taels of silver.

    And furthermore,

    that did not even take into account the existence of Martial Arts.

    If Martial Arts were included, then the value of the Divine Fist Sect would be at least over ten million taels.

    After all, just the True Scripture of the Prajnaparamita alone was priceless.

    However,

    those were not the things Gu Qingfeng cared about the most.

    What he valued the most was a scroll written by a master.

    "Sun and Moon Fist Scripture!"

    It was a legacy left by a powerful member of the Divine Fist Sect, containing the scripts of a master-level Fist Skills.

    More importantly,

    within this Fist Skills script, every word and line contained the power of True Intent of a master.

    Such True Intent of a master.

    Gu Qingfeng was certainly not unfamiliar with it.

    It was just a pity.

    The Sun and Moon Fist Scripture had been left behind for too long and had been pondered by successive powerhouses of the Divine Fist Sect; the power of true intent in it had become so weak that it seemed as if it might dissipate at any moment.

    Gu Qingfeng suspected that this was precisely why the later generations of the Divine Fist Sect did not continue to study the Sun and Moon Fist Scripture, instead preserving this script to wait for a truly talented and insightful disciple to ponder it.

    Otherwise, once the master''s true intent in it was exhausted, the value of this master''s script would be greatly reduced.

    As for scripts recording the sect''s Martial Arts, the former containing master''s true intent while the latter did not, the former was evidently far more valuable than the latter.

    ...

    As the team had not been large when they set out, by the time they returned, just the number of carriages alone had increased by more than a dozen, all filled with treasures from the Divine Fist Sect.

    With such a large convoy traveling from Liuyun Prefecture to Guangyang Prefecture, it was bound to attract attention along the way.

    In such times, attracting attention meant endless trouble.

    However,

    none in the Gu Family Manor''s team showed any signs of worry.

    Quite simple,

    If the rumors were true, even if Domineering Blade hadn''t achieved full mastery, his power was already beyond that of a master.

    A master-level powerhouse!

    Not to mention within one prefecture.

    Even across one county, one state, he would be a truly top-tier powerhouse.

    For a time,

    all the bandits fell silent.

    Even when Gu Qingfeng ordered the destruction of camps and strongholds, which nearly insulted the bandits, they turned a blind eye, not daring to make a peep.

    What a joke.

    Suspected to be a master-level powerhouse, who would dare act rashly?

    Not to mention a master.

    Even Gu Peng, strong in the fifth realm of Refining Organ to Perfection, was not someone they could handle.

    While many bandits quieted down, among the displaced populace, the reputation of the Gu Family Manor spread.

    Because Gu Qingfeng had ordered the destruction of bandit camps and eradication of marauders, many civilians were spared from the bandits'' harassment, and some were even indirectly saved by the Gu Family Manor.

    Thus,

    among the civilians, the Gu Family Manor earned quite a favorable reputation.

    Regarding this,

    Gu Qingfeng did not pay much attention.

    Now, his entire focus was on the master-level scripts.

    Using the stones of other mountains to polish one''s jade.

    Although Gu Qingfeng was now primarily focused on blade techniques, it did not mean he was unenthusiastic about fist skills.

    On the contrary,

    Gu Qingfeng was extremely passionate about the martial arts of the world, especially profound martial arts that could stir his interest.

    Currently,

    the intricacies of the Sun and Moon Fist Scripture had somewhat captivated him.

    Especially the true intent of a master embedded within, which provoked a different kind of realization in him.

    Both being master-level techniques,

    Domineering Blade and Sun and Moon Fist Scripture could also validate each other.

    Though one was a blade technique and the other a fist skill, using stones from other mountains could still be beneficial in polishing jade, allowing mutual corroboration to be greatly advantageous.

    Gradually,

    Gu Qingfeng''s understanding of Domineering Blade deepened, and he also began to grasp the subtleties of Sun and Moon Fist Scripture.

    But to truly master it, he still needed some time.
