Within five steps, the Martial Arts Family’s five-step technique is just a snap!
Li Ziqing also stopped moving, his face flushed. His skin was turning reddish due to the sudden burst of movements causing his body to heat up rapidly.
Li Ziqing took a deep breath and said.
"After achieving Great Perfection of Fist Technique with the Phoenix Falcon Fist, your body’s functions in all aspects will reach the peak limits of what humans can achieve. Many fist techniques have similar explosive moves; you need not be overly surprised. However, this method belongs to the activation of human potential. Without a strong body as support, it is difficult to use it continuously."
Not only the Phoenix Falcon Fist, but other fist techniques, whether first-class or second-class, once they reach the Great Perfection Realm of Fist Technique, they train the body’s quality to its peak limit state, though different fist styles have different focuses, thus leading to personal inclinations.
Lu Ren pondered, then shifted his waist and hips, breathing evenly, as his heart rate steadily returned as if in turtle sleep.
Li Ziqing watched Lu Ren’s movements with a smile, a hint of nostalgia appearing on his face.
Back then, he too had such moments of practice like Lu Ren. Although he would fail, as a member of a Martial Arts Family, one must be brave in attempting and find the suitable path in mistakes or correctness.
He couldn’t help but recall when he continued to practice boxing in the sunset, the resemblance with Lu Ren was so... What the heck?!!
The sharp tearing sound of air reached Li Ziqing’s ears, as the Qi and Blood movement suddenly accelerated, the intense friction of the hand knife with the air left behind created a faint, perceptible layer of air flow at the edge of the hand knife, giving off a sharp feeling.
After executing this hand knife, Lu Ren suddenly froze in place, then leaned on his knees, gasping deeply. The sudden surge of Qi and Blood caused a large rupture of capillaries in his body, and the imbalance of heartbeats made him feel nauseated, making it seem like if he continued forcibly, he might experience a sudden cardiac arrest, sudden death.
If your body is not robust enough, using such forceful techniques won’t kill the enemy, but instead could lead to your own undoing.
Kill three hundred enemies, harm oneself a thousand.
After being stunned for a long while, Li Ziqing spoke with a rather unreal feeling, "What did you just... How did you do that?"
After dry-heaving for a while and feeling slightly better, Lu Ren finally stood up straight, somewhat surprised, "Was it very difficult?"
Indeed, it wasn’t. At the Master Level of the fist technique, his understanding and control of his body surpass many Martial Path masters at the same level!
Understanding of the fist intent, meticulous control!
Perhaps for other members of the Martial Arts Family it’s indeed challenging, but for Lu Ren, once the fist technique reaches a certain tier, it naturally follows.
Li Ziqing opened his mouth, yet couldn’t say anything, standing alone in the cold wind questioning his existence.
After resting for a while, Lu Ren asked, "Does the Phoenix Falcon Fist have a Spiritual Meditation method?"
"...No, perhaps it did before, but not now." Li Ziqing sighed heavily, shaking his head slowly and said, "It’s all the sins committed when young, otherwise I wouldn’t have joined the Security Department. It was just to obtain a Contemplation Method to complement the Phoenix Falcon Fist. That’s the limitation of minor boxing styles."
The sins committed while young... perhaps involved picking fights, stealing someone’s girl, huh?!
Lu Ren grinned, indeed, as I suspected. Zhang Li definitely was just stringing him along, simply issued the task for the Overclocked Oscillation Blade, and Li Ziqing took it on to earn points, going through the motions to complete it, giving the whole Phoenix Falcon Fist system but leaving out some key tips.
Though a bit biased, Lu Ren felt his suspicion was most likely correct!
Li Ziqing walked not far from Lu Ren, "Come on, you must feel that your current phase of fist technique practice is challenging. At this time, you need external stimulation."
Stealing Heaven’s Mysteries in the fist technique, though it sounds flattering, is really just that: courage first, strength second, skills third! Courage is foremost! On the Martial Path, if one hears the Tao in the morning, they can die peacefully by evening! Without this sincere intent, how can one see through the great secret, break the human limit barriers and step into a new realm!"
Lu Ren listened, a bit speechless; you haven’t seen through the mysteries and broken the human barriers to set an example, so how are you here lecturing me?
Moreover, he just came here for Skill Level. As Skill Level increases, he can effortlessly practice the fist technique to perfection, thereby gaining all the True Intent of the Phoenix Falcon Fist.
Stealing Heaven’s Mysteries, perhaps too many novels he read!
But, one must admit, practicing fist technique in such an environment, from a certain level, is akin to walking between life and death, and the stimulus between life and death greatly enhances the Skill Level growth.
Lu Ren’s heart was beating intensely. As he slowly pulled open the Phoenix Falcon Fist posture, his mind immersed, assuming a relaxed stance, standing still, his right foot slowly lifted, contracting towards the abdomen.
Facing strong winds constantly blowing from the higher levels, Lu Ren’s heart shivered.
While on flat ground, pulling out the Phoenix Falcon Fist posture didn’t faze him, but practicing fist technique contemplating fist intent on an edge high above three hundred meters, is definitely a highly dangerous act.
Watching Lu Ren slowly pulling out his boxing posture, practicing the stance at the edge of the building, Li Ziqing felt he gained back some face.
"Ding, your body, due to being in a state of high tension, and your Spirit is highly concentrated under the practice of Phoenix Falcon Fist, your Phoenix Falcon Fist Skill Level +1"
Lu Ren’s Spirit lifted, causing slight wavering in his body.
In such perilous conditions on the building’s edge, a moment of relaxation could lead to a fatal fall.
Lu Ren couldn’t help feeling restless, there is great fear between life and death!
Seeing this, Li Ziqing shouted, "Concentrate your Spirit, don’t think wildly, if you can’t tame your Monkey Mind, how can you witness the sun and moon!"
Lu Ren collected his thoughts immediately, continued calmly, steadily speeding up his movements amidst slow practice.
"Ding, your body, due to being in a state of high tension, and your Spirit is highly concentrated under the practice of Phoenix Falcon Fist, your Phoenix Falcon Fist Skill Level +1"
"Ding, your body, because of..."
Apart from the danger, a string of system Skill Level notifications in his mind brought Lu Ren immense comfort.
For the next half month, Lu Ren was absorbed in the rapid enhancement of the fist technique, halfway Li Ziqing passed on the last bit of Phoenix Falcon Fist knowledge to him, then drifted away, continuing to take Security Department tasks to earn points.
For Li Ziqing, Lu Ren had nothing left to be taught, just one step away from entering the Great Perfection Realm of Fist Technique, what’s needed is personal insight, this, he had shared all his experience without reservation to Lu Ren, what’s left to be done requires patient effort and a bit of supposed fleeting luck.
Also, body tempering isn’t something achieved overnight.
