694: Chapter 694: Public Demonstration 694: Chapter 694: Public Demonstration “Hurry, let’s invite some massage therapists over, and be sure to find real masters,”
“No matter the cost, if we don’t invite them now, the price will only increase later.”
People from many places got moving immediately—they had already realized the future value of massage therapists.
Especially the wealthy, who, no matter the cost, wanted to hire personal massage therapists for themselves.
Those who were older were even more frantic because they were acutely aware of their own aging.
If they could quickly cultivate and improve, extending their lifespans, that would be even better.
They had recently gained some understanding of the culture from that Eastern country and were, of course, aware of the idea of life extension through cultivation, which is exactly what they desired the most.
Who would have thought that people could achieve immortality just by cultivating by themselves?
After all, to them, only natural-born gods could do such a thing, and they certainly didn’t have godly bloodlines.
As for things like going to heaven after death, who has seen that?
Who would want to die?
Even among them, many had their bodies cryogenically frozen when they were alive, precisely to find a way to extend their lifespan in the future.
The pursuit of immortality was tireless among all humans.
“I’ve decided, I’m going to study massage in the future,”
a young boy decided on his future career path immediately; it was an evidently booming industry.
The future was destined to be prosperous and limitless.
At that moment, someone excitedly said to Zhao Guang, “That, could you demonstrate for us, please?
I know you’re already very tired, or maybe you could just talk about it…”
A crowd of people eagerly watched Zhao Guang; they were desperate to learn more about cultivation.
Zhao Guang nodded before they could finish, “No problem.”
“First is Energy Introduction.
Once Energy Introduction is complete, True Qi forms within the body.
This True Qi can’t leave the body but can augment oneself, and then do this.”
Zhao Guang lightly jumped, reaching the top of a large tree, then stepped on it as if he were a leaf.
Warriors of the same level definitely couldn’t achieve such a feat, but Zhao Guang had tested it, True Qi could.
It couldn’t compete with Combat Energy in terms of destructive power and magnitude but, regarding control, the True Qi he developed was truly miraculous.
Zhao Guang then performed what was called running along rooftops, something that definitely couldn’t be achieved through mere skill.
Eventually, Zhao Guang punched a nearby tree, blasting the bark and creating a large crater underneath.
“This is the combat power at the level of Energy Introduction.
Once reaching the level of Energy Introduction, you still can’t combat bullets, but if given a gun, you could absolutely perform better than special forces.”
The crowd went wild; just this level of capability was something they could never achieve in their lifetimes through mere physical training.
What world-class boxers and fighters weren’t anything compared to this level of power.
Only now did they realize that the so-called martial arts masters were merely clowns in front of real powerhouses.
At this time, a certain country had already started to rant crazily, and some even tried to investigate Zhao Guang’s bloodline.
After all, in this respect, they were very experienced.
“The next level is Divinity, which, as the name suggests, uses one’s own True Qi to open one’s own meridians, nurturing one’s own acupoints.
As the meridians are opened and expanded repeatedly, one’s own True Qi will also grow stronger, at this level, True Qi can cling to oneself.”
Zhao Guang stretched out his hand; nothing could be seen on it, but a few leaves then fell.
These leaves just couldn’t fall past Zhao Guang’s hand, as if a current of air were pushing them.
Moments later, the leaves slid off, not having touched Zhao Guang in the slightest.
This visual phenomenon would later help them distinguish whether a person had reached the level of Divinity.
Then Zhao Guang punched again, hitting the same unlucky tree as before.
This time, he broke the tree in half; the upper half flew far away.
Those in that direction quickly fled the area, then watched the tree with faces full of awe.
The cut was uneven, but the sheer strength needed was evident.
After all, even if a car hit it, it might not actually break the tree in half.
“Wait, it seemed like your hand didn’t touch the tree just now.” Finally, someone noticed a problem.
After confirming their recorded video, Zhao Guang’s punch indeed hadn’t touched the tree itself.
“Correct, that’s known as Gang Qi.
Gang Qi can extend a few inches from the body and exert powerful force without contact.
With Gang Qi protecting the body, ordinary pistols and rifles can hardly harm oneself.”
Suddenly, it all made sense, no wonder in those videos, bullets couldn’t do anything to them.
“So, the next realm could actually allow True Qi to leave the body?”
This was said in perfectly standard Mandarin, probably someone from their own country.
They had seen in videos that those experts could project their force, not having to get close to engage the opponent physically.
Zhao Guang nodded, “Correct, the third level, Divinity, this realm requires combination with Visualization methods.”
“By strengthening the mind with Visualization, and then fusing the power of the mind into True Qi, this process can endow one’s own True Qi with attributes, just like me, with a Fire Attribute.”
Zhao Guang stretched out his hand, and a ball of flames ignited, though it was simulated with Magic Power.
But the others around didn’t know that, and seeing this, everybody became excited.
So it turned out that True Qi could possess attributes, then besides the Flame Attribute, were there other attributes as well?
Many began to stir, feeling it was just like having a superpower.
“At the Divinity level, one’s own True Qi can leave the body, forming long-range attacks.”
Zhao Guang waved his hand, and a flame-formed palm struck out, smashing several large trees in the distance, then setting them ablaze.
“At this level, ordinary heat weapons are of little use against oneself, as long as you don’t face planes and cannons,”
Although Zhao Guang said this, the people around didn’t think so because he had faced just those and remained unharmed before, even countering the attackers.
Right, he mentioned he was at the fourth level.
Wait, then how strong could the fifth level be?
That would mean the body could combat Mushroom Egg.
Thinking of the most powerful weapon in the human world, many hearts surged with excitement.
And many others, at this time, had a foreboding feeling.
