CHAPTER 156: CHAPTER 157: TESTING FIST

In reality, the Bright Awakening Realm, whether in the System Martial Path or Spiritual Qi Cultivation, emphasizes the enhancement of mental and spiritual power. One focuses more on the body, while the other focuses purely on the spirit and the universe.

Oh, these Spiritual Qi Cultivators are called Primordial Spirits.

Already engrossed, Ji Quanzhen turned his head to look at Lu Ren, reaching out as if to pull him in, his face full of enthusiasm.

"Come, join my Qingcheng’s Quanzhen Taoist, seek the true intent of countless legal principles in the world. Only this way can you pursue the path of the ancient Immortal Gods Buddha."

The path of Immortal Gods Buddha?

Lu Ren’s heart stirred slightly, suddenly remembering that Li Ziqing supposedly visited a tomb buried in Alternate Space.

Given that Ksitigarbha and Subodhi used the Sleeping Technique to prolong their life until now, might other figures from ancient myths also have methods to evade death for various reasons?

With such means, it’s hard to imagine who is buried in the great tomb.

Lu Ren slowly said, "Thank you, Taoist Ji for your kindness, but the Martial Path now continues using modern material methods, charting a true course, and I am also a traveler."

So-called Qi Cultivation is about training the magnetic field, controlled by the spirit.

Some deeply cultivating cultivators in Qi Cultivation, like Ji Quanzhen, though their bodies are thin, even emaciated, their Essence, Qi, and Spirit are extremely brilliant, and the divine light in their eyes is intimidating.

It’s as if forming a universe of their own.

The extraordinary pinnacle existence of the Bright Awakening Realm, under a state of extreme mental strength, can harmonize with their body’s magnetic field and the surroundings, aiding cultivation, preventing illness, and promoting longevity.

Seeing Lu Ren without any hesitation, Ji Quanzhen sighed, waved his hand listlessly.

"These days, the Martial Path is gradually thriving, while Qi Cultivation is beginning to decline. Since it’s like this..."

Ji Quanzhen looked directly at Lu Ren: "Let this Taoist see how far you’ve come in the Martial Path, young one not yet in Bright Awakening."

"Hmm?"

Lu Ren raised his eyebrows, seeing Ji Quanzhen standing with True Skill, smiling, his Essence, Qi, and Spirit restrained at this time, all phenomena disappeared, like a rejuvenated old man standing erect.

This is to test his fist.

Seeing Lu Ren’s doubtful gaze, Ji Quanzhen’s face showed a hint of embarrassment, flicked his wide sleeves, and casually said, "Do you know besides power and speed, as well as fist techniques, there is Boxing Theory in the Martial Path?"

"Boxing Theory?"

Here we go again.

Seeing Lu Ren silent, thinking he did not understand, Ji Quanzhen explained in detail.

"Boxing Theory is just a term, a comprehension of one’s own body, a comprehension of the universe, the Martial Path calls it Boxing Theory, the Taoist Family calls it Taoist Canon, and the Buddhist Zen Sect calls it Buddhist Scripture."

He extended a hand, with a somewhat playful expression: "Don’t look at the old Taoist as skin and bones, but my power isn’t small."

Lu Ren’s eyes shone: "Pardon me."

He naturally was very curious about this Bright Awakening powerhouse walking the Refining Spirit path, holding an exceptional position in the Security Bureau.

Upon hearing this, he couldn’t hypocritically decline, immediately clenched his hands, Qi and Blood surged throughout his body, arms slightly spread, adjusting the fist framework.

His body bent slightly, waist and hips sinking, like an eagle about to soar, his will and spirit soaring as the fist frame unfolded, Ji Quanzhen truly seemed to see a giant bird soaring, rushing towards him, with a hint of True Phoenix rebirth.

His will truly fierce and cruel, like a primordial ferocious bird.

"Good!"

Indeed, reputation well-deserved, rising rapidly in the extreme time of the Southwest Martial Arts Realm, even killing the contemporary Sect Leader Huang Jixuan with a sword, and winning decisively, even more interestingly, he’s a fist technique master who used a sword to defeat the opponent.

How sharp is that fist technique?

Phoenix Falcon Fist, Phoenix Falcon Flapping Wings!

Whoosh!

As the fist moved, it’s as if the airflow inside the cave heaved violently just by raising his hand.

With Lu Ren now reaching the limit of human physique, combined with the Outstanding level Phoenix Falcon Fist, this punch when unleashed, could seriously wound an unprotected person by the sudden gust alone.

Ji Quanzhen extended a dry hand, five fingers spread, as if gentle spring rain caressing the face, easily dispersing the fierce gust Lu Ren provoked, arriving later, his open palm tenderly enveloping Lu Ren’s powerful punch.

All the unleashed power dissipated invisibly under this grasping hand.

Seemingly slow yet fast, the palm did not tremble.

Damn?!

Lu Ren’s heart shook violently, completely unexpected that his punch had no effect.

"Again!"

His eyes lit up, Qi and Blood rapidly surged within, followed by the Lamp of Freedom fiercely igniting, like a fire burning his body, as the rapidly flowing blood reached into his limbs and bones, his whole body muscles bulged intensely, veins protruding viciously.

In Ji Quanzhen’s eyes, the Phoenix Falcon Fist’s locked condensed spiritual will Lu Ren deployed suddenly transformed into a massive flame-burning bird.

True Phoenix?

Ji Quanzhen slightly raised his white brows, his expression flashing a hint of surprise, seemingly astonished that Lu Ren actually realized the true essence within the Phoenix Falcon Fist.

This punch, Lu Ren did not hold back at all, his blood rushed like a galloping river, body temperature sharply soared, like a blazing furnace, with rising water vapor forming a fiery giant bird as he moved.

This punch could collapse a fifty to sixty-ton main battle tank!

Punching outright, even the air resonated under this punch, producing viscous wave ripples like water.

"Not bad!"

Seeing this punch, Ji Quanzhen’s eyes shone brightly, Divine Thought surging, his whole body’s magnetic field weaving as threads of light slowly emerged, like small golden serpents, the electric arcs quickly gathered on his palm, shining purely white, like white jade.

Soon the palm blossomed like a green lotus, once more receiving the punch’s force.

The Taoist Family’s secret refined by the Refining Spirit path, Jade Skin Immortal Bone!

Only those with Bright Awakening Realm, the Taoist Quanzhen, qualify to touch this type, belonging to Spiritual Qi Cultivators, power attained by Borrowing False to True Cultivation.

Could be called Divine Communication Skill!

Lu Ren flashed through the materials seen at the Security Department, his fist was already effortlessly accommodated by Ji Quanzhen, despite it being describable as a huge fist, easily grasped by Ji Quanzhen’s thin fingers.

Bang!

A deep rumbling collision sound exploded, even the surrounding air whipped a wave expanding from the clash of fists and palms.

Then everything dissipated into invisibility, the faint magnetic field entwined on Ji Quanzhen’s hand collided and scattered with the force.

(Unexpected, right? I’ve updated another Chapter, wahahaha!!!)
