Rather than this, it would be better to speak out. Although He Lian's original intention was a hypothesis, the situation now left him no choice but to speak.

"I will speak..."

He Lian recounted the cultivation technique in its entirety.

From He Lian's words, Xiao Bei also learned that the technique capable of producing a palm print imbued with a sense of desolation and tragedy was indeed a unique family technique of the Da Qin Song family.

Of course, the technique itself was absolutely not the low-level technique that the twenty-seven or twenty-eight-year-old Jun-level martial artist, Song Ren, had mentioned. It was a technique that only direct descendants of the Da Qin Song family, who had risen to the level of family head or elder, could learn.

This was also why Song Qing, who had accompanied Song Ren, and the one called Song Wu, although they were Imperial-level martial artists, did not know this technique.

In fact, everything has a cause and effect. On that day, He Lian had clearly set out with the purpose of training. However, at the border between the Da Qin Kingdom and the Wu Kingdom, he accidentally encountered someone stealing the He family's cultivation technique. At the time, the He family was pursuing that person, and among them were some very powerful individuals, most of whom were solitary wanderers, who also joined in the He family's pursuit of the technique.

He Lian, by sheer luck, picked up the technique because the powerful individual had died not far from him in a dense forest...

Xiao Bei was not very interested in the somewhat cliché story of how He Lian obtained the technique, although it did help him piece together some clues... What Xiao Bei was most concerned about was the technique itself!

The most important thing was whether the incantation He Lian told him was genuine or not!

A technique that could inherently incorporate something akin to a rule into a martial qi attack, and not through enlightenment, was a hallmark of an extremely powerful and superior technique!

Such techniques were not simply about using martial qi to create an external simulation; they required a special flow of power within the body... The incantation of this technique was the method for this special flow, which was the reason why all superior techniques were considered superior.

It changed your internal essence!

It changed the way power flowed within your body!

It allowed your power to flow in a way that enabled you to unleash the most suitable moves for the technique... Xiao Bei's "Star Canon" was one such technique, and it was the most superior!

Because cultivating the "Star Canon" itself could imbue martial qi with a force akin to the power of the stars, and it did so in large quantities, allowing Xiao Bei to use techniques like "Heavenly Stars" and "Star Rain" more freely... This palm technique, though it had a lesser impact on martial qi compared to the "Star Canon," was still far superior to ordinary techniques.

Xiao Bei believed that once you understood one thing, you would understand many. Although this palm technique was not perfect, as long as he could grasp the essence of the palm strike after completing the technique, his understanding of the star-like rules would definitely improve!

This was the reason Xiao Bei was eager to obtain the technique! — Desolation, vast desolation, the earth is desolate, the earth is bleak, life is desolate, life is bleak! First, there is birth, aging, illness, death, and suffering, then there is the pain of separation, the hatred of reunion, and the frustration of unfulfilled desires! — This is the law of the world, and this law is also a rule that all things, stars, and the universe must follow!

"This technique, if truly mastered to its utmost, will greatly benefit my 'Star Canon' and my understanding of the star realm. A significant improvement in my realm is not a problem... However, after my deduction, there are three flaws... This He Lian is quite sinister, playing with fire again..."

Xiao Bei deduced that the incantation of this technique definitely had three flaws, and the technique might be an incomplete version, not the full one, which disappointed him greatly.

However, even so, the technique up to the Imperial level was sufficient. It was likely that even the Da Qin Song family only had these incantations.

"He Lian, is the incantation you mentioned the original one?"

Whether it was an incomplete version or not, Xiao Bei valued the aura the technique brought, hoping that the desolate and tragic palm strike would guide him to a deeper understanding of the "Star Canon."

Moreover, Xiao Bei was confident that with the "Star Canon" as a foundation, deducing a technique of this level should not be too difficult.

"It is the original incantation, I cannot lie to save the remaining members of the He family," He Lian said with a serious expression.

By placing the lives of his family members in his words, He Lian spoke solemnly.

However, Xiao Bei, who had already deduced the three flaws, ignored He Lian's expression and decided to act immediately.

The He family's affairs should come to an end. Those who should be killed had already been killed... And in front of Xiao Bei, He Lian's eyes suddenly turned even more bloodshot!

Almost as soon as Xiao Bei's killing intent arose, He Lian's body seemed to steam up, emitting a bloody aura!

This aura was too similar to the yellow-robed man Xiao Bei had encountered in the Xiao family's backyard... Could it be that the yellow-robed man was from the Zhou family, and He Lian was practicing a similar technique?

This thought flashed through Xiao Bei's mind.

"Seeking death!"

Xiao Bei's eyes locked onto He Lian, who, at the peak of his martial qi, charged straight at him. Xiao Bei said.

Then, Xiao Bei's hands moved, and a force like a mountain collapsing and a sea surging struck He Lian... "Peng!" He Lian was hit by Xiao Bei's palm and retreated several meters!

However, he did not die!

Following He Lian's retreat were countless silver swords, which were even faster than his retreat and pierced through him... Xiao Bei, standing steadily in the air, narrowed his eyes and stared at He Lian... He Lian's body was covered in blood, his skin torn, and his face was a bloody mess.

"If I die, you won't be well either," He Lian spat out large mouthfuls of blood, coughed several times, and finally, his life force faded, and he fell from the air.

"Ancestor, Ancestor..."

"Ancestor, you can't die..."

"Heaven, the Ancestor really died..."

The moment He Lian's body hit the ground, the few He family members present all burst into tears.

On the other side, Xiao Bei muttered to himself, "If I hadn't deduced the three flaws in the technique you mentioned, I might have been in trouble, but you've disappointed me."

Looking down at the chaos among the He family members on the ground, his gaze shifted, and Xiao Bei saw the military deputy who had come to report.

The military deputy was still sitting paralyzed.

When Xiao Bei's gaze fell on him, the deputy's eyes, which had never left Xiao Bei, instantly lost their light, filled with despair and fear.

Xiao Bei shook his head, sensing the approach of an Imperial-level martial artist. He turned and headed into the distance, not stopping.

The military deputy, who had been sitting paralyzed on the ground, only came to his senses after Xiao Bei was far away.

He rubbed his eyes hard, confirming that the masked black-robed man had flown far away and was out of sight. The deputy took several deep breaths, feeling drenched in sweat, his armor soaked through.
