Whoosh!
In the mountain forest, Zhong Lin’s figure soared across the sky. With a light tap of his toes, he crossed a hundred feet effortlessly, flying through the void like a great bird.
Zhong Lin’s face was full of joy. That previous move was just a casual action, without using any lightweight body technique.
After advancing to a Grandmaster, opening the Heaven and Earth Bridge not only refined and elevated his True Qi, transforming it into Innate True Qi that can communicate with external energy, but also inexplicably enhanced every aspect of his physical attributes.
His steps seed leisurely, like strolling in a courtyard, yet his speed was fleeting. Even if soone saw him, it would rely be a blur in their eyes.
With several strides, Zhong Lin arrived at a secluded, uninhabited mountain valley.
Though this valley wasn’t large, a small stream ran through it. By the stream, Zhong Lin washed his face, and the icy water on his face gradually cooled his sowhat warm cheeks.
After a long ti, he finally stood up.
He slowly closed his eyes, quietly sensing everything around him.
He could feel a mystical connection between his body and the outside world, facilitated by True Qi.
He sat by the stream, the Innate True Qi within his body slowly circulating.
Strands of inexplicable energy poured into his body from the outside, and he could clearly sense that after the outside True Qi circulated through each acupuncture point in his body, they seed to grow stronger.
Slowly, when the circulation route of the "Five Elents Mixed Essence Skill" ended, all the Innate True Qi returned to the Dantian, and Zhong Lin could feel the True Qi becoming increasingly powerful.
He slowly opened his eyes, his right hand forming a Sword Finger and giving a sharp flick. A golden Sword Qi shot out from his fingertips, slicing through the air and tearing the void.
"Go!"
With a flick of the Sword Finger, the golden Sword Qi tore through the air like a teleportation, piercing a distant mountain rock. Accompanied by a loud boom, the massive rock, at least tens of ters high, was directly penetrated, leaving a fist-sized hole through which sunlight shone.
Zhong Lin’s mouth opened in surprise, and his eyes showed traces of astonishnt.
In the First Grade Realm, exerting full strength could achieve this, but one must know that the previous strike was done casually, yet the destruction was comparable to a First Grade Martial Artist’s full exertion.
And this was solely relying on his own Innate True Qi. If he could harness the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, how much more powerful would the destruction be?
Zhong Lin had just broken through to the Grandmaster Realm, his Innate True Qi still shallow and unable to reach peak effectiveness. But given enough ti for the True Qi to deepen, what would happen then?
Taking a deep breath, the Innate True Qi within Zhong Lin surged nonstop, and his figure swiftly road around, his arms swinging continuously, as if two three-foot-long Light Swords appeared in his palms.
These two Light Swords seed almost real, slicing instantly through anything they touched.
With a thought, the Light Swords turned fiery red, and a scorching sensation rose in the valley. With a gentle stroke, a giant tree large enough for a person to embrace turned to ashes in an instant.
The power released by the Fire Attribute Innate True Qi was so imnsely powerful that Zhong Lin instantly felt incomparable confidence swell within him.
True Qi turned again, and the Light Swords turned deep black...
After a while, Zhong Lin’s figure descended, and the two Light Swords dissipated.
"Whew! Such a huge consumption. These Light Swords look mighty, effective too, but the True Qi consumption is just too much. Best to use them sparingly in the future."
Having opened the Heaven and Earth Bridge and tapped into the essence Qi, he could absorb energy from outside and quickly replenish the consud Innate True Qi, but there is a limit. Beyond that, consumption outweighs supplentation.
After resting for a mont until the True Qi fully recovered, Zhong Lin ford seals with his hands before striking fiercely toward a distant mountain peak.
An earthy yellow palm imprint suddenly shot from Zhong Lin’s palm, growing in the wind and continuously drawing Heaven and Earth Essence Qi. In re monts, it transford into a massive hand covering the sky.
BOOM!
A trendous rumble sounded, causing the entire valley to tremble as if the earth dragon had turned over.
When the dust cleared, there was no mountain peak in sight but a giant palm imprint imprinted on the ground, the entire peak having exploded into a chaotic pile of rocks.
"Haha, this is the true power of Grandmaster Martial Arts. Didn’t even show a fraction of its might before."
Zhong Lin was startled by the power of the Ground Seal, proving it worthy of being a Grandmaster-level martial skill.
As for the others, be it Dragon Subduing Palm or Spirit Rhinoceros Sword Finger, even in the hands of a Grandmaster, they couldn’t unleash the power akin to Grandmaster Martial Arts.
Zhong Lin road this valley for a full day before leaving, gaining a preliminary understanding of the strength of Innate True Qi.
...
"Brother Weixuan, why does the martial arts you taught feel so weird?"
"In what way is it weird?"
"Why is this fist technique all about lying down and not moving?"
Spirit dicine Peak, Purple Bamboo Forest, Green Bamboo Courtyard.
Little Stone lay on the ground, his body naturally lying on his back, legs bent, calves drawn inward, with the soles of his feet facing each other and his small hands placed on his abdon, palms down.
i Weixuan reclined on a lounge chair nearby, one leg crossing the other, one hand eating snacks, and the other holding a purple clay teapot, occasionally taking sips of tea.
Sipping leisurely, he explained, "There are countless fist techniques under the heavens. Our Sword Cauldron Sect is formidable, but we dare not claim to encompass all. Have you heard of the Earth Lying Fist? It’s a technique displayed while lying on the ground. Just imagine, during a fight, if you lie on the ground, you can hit others, but they can’t hit you. Isn’t that aweso?"
A picture instantly ford in Little Stone’s mind. Although he felt i Weixuan’s words made sense, sothing seed off.
"This move I taught you is a family heirloom, called ’Returning Yang Lie.’ It’s far superior to that Earth Lying Fist. If not for the relationship with your brother, I wouldn’t teach it to you!" i Weixuan said with a smirk.
"But why can’t I move? How do I fight without moving?" Little Stone asked again.
"Oh! This fist technique is a static skill, able to mobilize Qi-Blood and strengthen kidney Qi. Don’t you underestimate it. It may seem useless now, but when you grow up, it’ll be highly useful, and then you’ll be thanking . Back in the day, I used this move to wreak havoc in the Pavilion of Xiang, sweeping them off their feet with wails and cries for rcy..."
"Wait a minute? Brother Weixuan, can that idiom be used here?"
Confusion covered Little Stone’s face.
"Heh heh, you’ll understand when you grow up. Let tell you, I’m not bragging, back in the day..."
