Reincarnation space, but the style is wrong

Chapter 5 Do you crave power?

In the early morning, a ray of dawn in the sky awakened the entire Qinghe County.

But this did not include Chen Xingzhi, because he had not slept the whole night and had been practicing the martial arts techniques he got from the Liu family.

Obviously, he succeeded and unlocked another profession: "Warrior", and a new energy system: "True Qi".

Unfortunately, this profession did not bring him any new talents. He guessed that not all professions were as special as that of a Qi Refiner.

At this moment, he was practicing a set of boxing techniques, punching vigorously in the clinic.

Thanks to his own talent, he quickly understood the true meaning of the "Subduing Tiger Fist". With each move, he was like a ferocious tiger, and his punches were fierce and powerful.

Even the roar of a tiger could be faintly heard in the sound of the strong wind he created.

After practicing the whole set of boxing techniques, Chen Xingzhi closed his fist, exhaled a long breath of white air, and his bones made a crackling sound.

"If this set of 'Subduing Tiger Fist' is practiced regularly, it can indeed improve the physical fitness of the human body," he said, feeling his body was obviously different from before and more relaxed, and expressed his approval of this martial arts technique.

According to what was written in the book, he should have already mastered the "true meaning of martial arts", which was the final stage of the complete set of "Subduing Tiger Fist".

“Is this what it feels like to be a genius?”

Chen Xingzhi recalled his school days and thought that if he had been talented back then, things would have been much easier.

Not long after, his stomach began to growl and he felt weak, which made him laugh.

"I almost forgot that martial artists need to consume a lot of food. I didn't eat anything last night."

If he were an ordinary person, he would undoubtedly faint from weakness at this moment, but fortunately he was not.

The body affects the mind, but the mind can also affect the body.

After practicing the "Six Qi Nourishing Spirit Theory", his spirit had far surpassed his body, which allowed him to easily suppress the weakness caused by hunger.

However, this also put a great burden on his body, so he urgently needed a way to improve his physical fitness.

Or, abandon the body altogether.

Chen Xingzhi prefers the first path, so he is now very interested in martial arts techniques.

Of course, the same applies to monsters.

"Let's go get something to eat first."

He pushed open the door of the clinic, walked to the street, found a random store, bought some meat, and planned to take it back to the clinic to eat.

"Isn't that someone from the Green Snake Gang?"

Chen Xingzhi narrowed his eyes and noticed several gang members who were collecting stall fees from vendors not far ahead. Suddenly, he came up with an idea to target the Green Snake Gang.

After using some tricks on these Green Snake Gang members, he quickly walked back to his clinic.

The gang members who were threatening the vendors had their hair standing on end, as if they were being stared at by some ferocious beast. They were so scared that they couldn't speak.

They didn't even bother to collect the stall fees. They just made up an excuse, uttered some harsh words and left quickly.

They were terrified to stay there for even a second longer.

After returning to the clinic, Chen Xingzhi wolfed down the food.

His hunger was relieved after he had something to eat.

While chewing and swallowing, he controlled his body to speed up digestion, which allowed him to swallow all the meat in a short period of time and quickly replenish the energy lost in his body due to martial arts practice.

This was a method he had learned by analogy from martial arts, and it was also an indispensable piece of the puzzle in his idea of ​​utilizing the flesh and blood of monsters.

After swallowing the last bite, Chen Xingzhi showed a satisfied expression.

All in all, this should be the most filling meal he has had since he came into this world.

In order to save time in the past two days, he just found some dry food to make do with, just enough to barely avoid hunger.

After breakfast, he practiced boxing again. After making sure that his body and magic power were in the best condition, Chen Xingzhi used the martial arts skills he learned last night to control the movement of the flesh on his face, transforming it into an ordinary face.

He then controlled his entire body's bones and muscles, changed his height and body shape, changed his clothes, and brought his weapons. After he had his fortune told as usual and got a "lucky" result, he dived into the shadows like a dragon returning to the sea, and fled towards the Green Snake Gang's base in the county.

In the General Affairs Hall of the Green Snake Gang, Deputy Gang Leader Lin Guang was originally leisurely drinking tea and handling gang affairs, but an uninvited guest who suddenly broke in disrupted his peaceful life.

"Who are you, and why are you causing trouble in my Green Snake Gang?"

Looking at the middle-aged man in coarse linen clothes and with an ordinary appearance, Lin Guang felt a sense of fear for no reason.

Although he looked like just an ordinary person, he could feel a fierce power from him, like a tiger descending from the mountain.

'This is a master who has mastered the true meaning of martial arts!'

Chen Xingzhi, who disguised himself as another person, didn't know what the other party was thinking, but he didn't need to know. He just needed to show his own strength.

"Where is your gang leader? Ask him to come out to see me." He spoke slowly, and the ferocity on his body continued to increase.

When he uttered the last word, Lin Guang felt as if he heard a tiger's roar. He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat and his evaluation of Chen Xingzhi rose to a higher level.

"An expert must be one who can be compared with the head of the Demon Extermination Department of Qinghe County!"

Lin Guang screamed wildly in his heart. This scene reminded him of the time many years ago when he happened to witness the head of the Demon Extermination Bureau taking action.

That was also the first time he felt such power.

Just saying these words made him, who had practiced martial arts for many years, tremble in fear. It was hard for him to imagine how powerful the person who came was.

"I, I will go find the gang leader right now. Please wait here for a while."

Knowing in his heart that he would not be able to resist the oncoming enemy, Lin Guang stood up with a flattering smile and trotted off to find his own gang leader to deal with the situation.

Chen Xingzhi didn't care at all. He just found a chair and sat down, with his eyes slightly closed, as if he was sleeping soundly.

After a while, a strange aura came quietly from afar.

If Chen Xingzhi hadn't had outstanding perception, he might not have noticed his footsteps.

When that person stepped into the General Affairs Hall, Chen Xingzhi suddenly opened his eyes, and an aura of pressure like a crouching tiger suddenly awakening spread all around.

Those who came were naturally shocked by the pressure.

Facing a powerful person who was much stronger than himself, Lin Yin politely bowed and greeted:

"I am Lin Yin, the leader of the Green Snake Gang. I wonder if you have any advice for me?"

Chen Xingzhi raised his head and glanced at Lin Yin, commenting: "The footwork is good, like a sneaking snake."

"You are too polite," Lin Yin said without being proud. "This is the 'Shadow Snake Step' inherited from my Green Snake Gang. It is just a little tricky and cannot compare to your superb martial arts."

Chen Xingzhi knew that this was his deliberate flattery, so he stopped arguing with him and got straight to the point:

"Although your footwork is good, your martial arts skills are not that good, and your body is covered with hidden injuries. I think you won't live past the age of 40."

What he said was of course well-founded. Through the energy of his Qi, he could see all the hidden injuries on the other party.

From this, he could calculate how old Lin Yin would live to.

After hearing what Chen Xingzhi said, Lin Yin felt as if his heart had hit rock bottom.

He knows his own situation best. When he was young, he was brave and aggressive and ended up with many hidden injuries.

He was young then and didn't care much about these things, but now he is thirty-five years old, and even with his martial arts skills, he still feels excruciating pain every time his hidden injuries flare up.

He just didn't show it to the outside world in order to maintain his dominance over the gang.

In fact, he also knew that in his condition, he might not even live to be forty.

Facing a strong man like Chen Xingzhi, he did not think about how the other party knew about this matter, but said calmly:
"What exactly do you want? Please tell me clearly."

In response, Chen Xingzhi smiled slightly and bewitched, "Do you desire power and life?"
