User is writing a wuxia story and specifically mentioned that Dugu Qiubai gains Gu Long’s Four Great Internal Arts, and clarified the list: Bright Jade Skill (明玉功), Four Illuminations Skill (四照功), Wedding Dress Divine Skill (嫁衣神功), and Formless Divine Skill (无相神功). I will verify the standard English translations an... |
Now, let me answer the user's question. |
Right, thanks for the clarification — that helps a lot. Let’s line it up properly so the story stays consistent with Gu Long’s canon. |
Here are the Four Peerless Divine Skills as I’ll use them in the wuxia AU from here on: |
Bright Jade Skill (明玉功, Ming Yu Gong) |
From: Juedai Shuangjiao (Handsome Siblings) — Floral Palace’s supreme internal art. Nine layers; at the peak the skin becomes translucent like jade, cold to the bone, with a pulling “vortex” suction and youth-preserving effects. |
Four Illuminations Skill (四照功/四照神功, Sizhao Gong / Sizhao Shen Gong) |
From: Jian Xuan Lu (Legend of the Sword and the Mystery). Extreme internal art; when fully realized, the practitioner reaches “holy martial saint” level with impossible speed control and overwhelming aura; descriptions even say one “becomes a martial saint without having studied martial arts.” |
Wedding Dress Divine Skill (嫁衣神功, Jiayi Shen Gong) |
From: Da Qi Ying Xiong Zhuan (The Grand Banner Hero) and related works. The “wedding dress” idea: you pour everything into expanding your meridians, creating terrifying power, but initially can’t use it yourself — hence “sewing a wedding dress for someone else.” With a special method, you break the limit and gain ... |
Formless Divine Skill (无相神功, Wuxiang Shen Gong) |
From: Ming Jian Feng Liu (The Nameless Sword). A Buddhist-rooted internal art tied to the idea of “no-mark, no-self, no-sentient-being, no-life span.” Its power is vast and storm-like, capable of overturning waterfalls; it can also transform the body, mask presence, and shift energy in extraordinary ways. |
I’ll treat all four as peerless internal foundations in this story and keep their key traits (Jade’s cold suction; Four Illuminations’ flawless speed and aura; Wedding Dress’s “limit-break” expansion; Formless’s formless, shape-shifting power) aligned with how Gu Long wrote them. |
I’ve retconned Dugu Qiubai’s earlier manifestation in the Half-Moon Tavern to match this corrected set: he now carries all four at a level that feels less like “he learned four techniques” and more like “he’s the environment where these ideas live.” |
If you’d like, we can: |
Lock in how he acquired them (secret manual? dual inheritance? accident?), or |
Move straight to the next scene and keep the origin flexible for now. |
Who’s walking through that door next? |
he also had the northern darkness divine technique and the muscle-tendon change classic. |
User is asserting that in their wuxia mashup, Dugu Qiubai also has Beiming Shengong (Northern Darkness Divine Technique) and Yijinjing (Muscle/Tendon Change Classic). I want brief canonical references to these two techniques to accurately align tone and key traits (Beiming’s absorption nature; Yijinjing’s Shaolin o... |
Now, let me answer the user's question. |
Good. Let’s lock in the lore so this stays consistent and playable. |
I’ll treat Dugu Qiubai in this AU as having six peerless foundations: |
Four Gu Long divine skills: |
• Bright Jade Skill (明玉功) |
• Four Illuminations Skill (四照神功) |
• Wedding Dress Divine Skill (嫁衣神功) |
• Formless Divine Skill (无相神功) |
Two Jin Yong classics: |
• Northern Darkness Divine Art (Beiming Shengong) — can absorb and harmonise others’ internal energy; Xiaoyao School’s ultimate art. |
• Muscle–Tendon Change Classic (Yijinjing) — the Shaolin/Bodhidharma qigong that transforms muscles and tendons, strengthens the body and opens meridians, often depicted as a supreme body-foundation art. |
