The appearance of Yijinjing in Jin Yong's novels, such as "Eight Dragons" and "the legendary swordsman", will inevitably lead to fierce competition in Wulin as long as they appear outside Shaolin Temple. At ordinary times, the reputation of Yijinjing is also very loud among the major sects in the Jianghu. Even the Great Wheel Ming Wang Jiu has long been famous for Yijinjing.
Sweeping monk once said in Tian Ba Long Department that since the establishment of Shaolin Temple, only Bodhisattva and Bodhisattva can really practice Yijinjing and the seventy-two stunts of Shaolin. Because practicing these martial arts requires corresponding Buddhism to resolve, there is no distractions, so many people find it difficult to practice Yijinjing. Later, Arjun stole it and wanted to give it to Xiao Feng, but Xiao Feng didn't care at that time, and was finally picked up by Yutan. As a result, an uneducated prodigal son inadvertently and wrongly cultivated the success of June 7th. During the Shaoshi Mountain War, he was able to hold hands with the Eighteen Dragons of Xiao Feng, and the great ship Wang Ming Jiumo Zhi also secretly studied the Yijin Sutra, but he was eager for quick success and instant benefit, although his skill increased greatly, but in the end he was possessed.
In the legendary swordsman, the internal strength of abbot Zheng Fang, the master of Shaolin Temple, is also supported by Yijinjing. It can be seen that Master Zheng Fang has a profound skill and a high understanding of Buddhism. In the fight against Ren Woxing, Ren Woxing used the star-sucking method to absorb the internal force of Master Zheng Fang, and he could not resist. Finally, he had to use other means to win.
Later, Yijinjing also helped Ling Huchong to heal the internal forces that could not be discharged from the body. Before Ling Huchong was injected with six different kinds of qi, his illness became more serious for various reasons, but at the end of the book, he finally got the treatment of Yijinjing and recovered completely.
