Chapter 60: Xuanwu True Technique and the Supreme Bone
Lin Yu obviously couldn't just walk up to Bibi Dong and tell her that Tang Hao and his son were in Holy Soul Village.
After all, based on his current identity,
he was just a child from Windmill Village in the Kingdom of Haagen-Dazs—he hadn't even left the kingdom before.
If he somehow knew about Tang Hao and Tang San,
it would be no different from directly admitting that he was the "Lin Yu" from the livestream.
So for now, Lin Yu couldn't think of a safe approach.
All he could do was place his hopes on Su Yuntao at the Spirit Hall sub-branch in Nuoding City—
the only person within Spirit Hall who might realize Tang San's true identity and inform Bibi Dong.
After this livestream, Spirit Hall was now aware of the threat posed by the Tang father and son.
Lin Yu couldn't imagine them making the same mistake as in the original timeline, giving Tang San repeated chances to survive.
This time, Spirit Hall would surely launch a full-scale manhunt!
With that thought set aside, Lin Yu turned his attention to the matter of his rewards.
This time, the prize was two random rewards—but for Lin Yu, these "random" draws were actually manually chosen ones!
And he already knew what he wanted:
"System, for these two rewards, I want the Xuanwu True Technique from Wind and Cloud, and the External Soul Bone: Supreme Bone from Perfect World."
"The Supreme Bone's soul skill must be a clone-type divine art. The clones must have all of my power, be able to use my martial soul, remain in communication with my consciousness, and all their experience and cultivation gains must transfer back to the original body when merged…"
Taking a deep breath, Lin Yu made his selections and gave specific conditions.
The first reward, Xuanwu True Technique, was created by the peerless martial artist Wu Wudi in a high-martial world drama called Wind and Cloud.
The technique was divided into two parts: the Ten Supreme External Martial Arts and the Xuanwu Internal Skill. The Ten Supreme Martial Arts consisted of:
Sword: Destiny Sword DaoBlade: Peerless Blade TechniqueSpear: Heaven-Asking Spear ArtHalberd: Grand Change Halberd CanonStaff: Tiger Roar Staff CompilationFist: Mountains & Seas Fist ScripturePalm: Xuanwu Divine PalmLeg: Fierce King Leg ArtsClaw: Dragon Bone ClawFinger: Perfect Harmony Finger
And then there was the powerful internal cultivation: the Xuanwu Inner Skill.
Though Lin Yu hadn't practiced it in this world, he believed it far surpassed Tang San's Xuan Tian Technique.
Even more impressive than the ten arts were the advanced forms that could be unleashed after mastering them: Invincible in All Directions and Annihilation in All Directions—
moves powerful enough to crush armies and rival even—or surpass—million-year soul skills.
In Lin Yu's view, the ten martial arts were extremely well-rounded—covering all forms of combat and including two unique movement techniques.
For him, it was the perfect set to train with.
The second reward—the External Soul Bone: Supreme Bone—had to grant a powerful clone-type soul skill. Lin Yu wanted it as a long-term strategic tool.
He had originally wanted the Kunpeng Wings from Perfect World, but failed to acquire them.
After some thought, he realized the Kunpeng was simply too strong.
Even a newborn Kunpeng in Perfect World could likely one-shot a Title Douluo on Douluo Continent.
The Supreme Bone, however, posed no such issue.
It was a naturally formed divine bone capable of evolving alongside a trueborn Supreme.
So Lin Yu was fairly confident the system would allow it.
Why this soul bone?
Partly because Lin Yu wanted to play it safe.
With both Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu in Spirit City, it was far too dangerous.
And since the livestream rewards gave him what he needed,
he didn't need to rely on Spirit Hall's resources—just their knowledge.
So if he could obtain a soul bone that generated a clone,
he could leave the clone behind in Spirit City to study, while his true body trained elsewhere.
Additionally, with a clone-type soul skill, he could negotiate with the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and run other covert ops under an alias. A perfect setup!
"Ding! The system can fulfill your request for both the Xuanwu True Technique and the Supreme Bone. However, for the clone-type soul skill of the Supreme Bone, there are twelve eligible options. They include: One Qi Begets Three Pure Ones, Twins of Fate, Shadow Split Body, and more…"
As Lin Yu finished his wish, the cold voice of the system echoed shortly after.
"Can I see their details?" Lin Yu asked after a moment of thought.
"Yes," the system replied.
An attribute screen appeared before him.
One Qi Begets Three Pure Ones
Origin: Mythical World of the Great Desolation
Effect: Creates three clones—Shangqing, Yuqing, and Taiqing. Each clone possesses near-equal strength and standard abilities as the original. They can cultivate independently, but if their soul power is depleted, they vanish… Twins of Fate
Origin: Eternal Life Realm
Effect: Body splits into two forms—Virtue and Evil. Each form gains unique abilities and talents. As long as both are not destroyed at once, they can resurrect indefinitely… Shadow Split Body
Origin: Undying Immortality
Effect: Transforms shadow into a separate being with independent thought. Has elite potential in negative energy cultivation. As long as the original body lives, the shadow body is indestructible…
…
Reading the panel, Lin Yu considered for a while and chose the first one: One Qi Begets Three Pure Ones.
Not just because it created more clones with strong overall abilities,
but because this divine art gave the original body absolute control over its clones—unlike the others, which carried some risk of loss of control.
"System, I choose One Qi Begets Three Pure Ones!"
With the decision made, Lin Yu voiced it in his mind.
Immediately, an overwhelming stream of information surged into his brain, while a warm current filled his chest.
He felt his head throb and a blazing sensation spread through his chest, as if something had just taken root.
He knew: that was the Supreme Bone.
Now—time to test out the Supreme Bone's clone ability!
…
Meanwhile, in Holy Soul Village—
After the livestream ended, both Tang Hao and Tang San logged off.
Just as Lin Yu had predicted, now that his son knew his identity, Tang Hao canceled the plan to send Tang San to Nuoding Academy.
This move was fully in character for Tang Hao.
So while village elder Old Jack was clearly angry, he didn't find it suspicious.
