Chapter 793: Just One More Step (1)
The Shanxi Gu Clan is a family of flame arts.
It had been that way ever since the Gu Clan first emerged in Zhongyuan.
All the clan heads and direct descendants wielded flame techniques.
Their martial arts bore a superficial resemblance to the Sammaejinhwa technique, which used qi to ignite flames, but the two were fundamentally different.
The Gu Clan was a prestigious family rooted in flame arts.
That was the Shanxi Gu Clan.
However—
‘Not all Gu descendants can use flame arts.’
While flame arts were the foundation of the clan, not everyone in the bloodline inherited them.
Only the direct line, born into the main family, could cultivate Guyeomhwaryungong—the Nine Flames Firewheel Technique—in their dantian.
Branch families, on the other hand, had to train in different internal energy techniques.
These techniques varied across styles, but they all shared one common trait—heat manipulation.
