Chapter 247 Thoughts on Ascending to a High Place

Back in the dormitory on the South Campus, Luo Shui followed Bai Ze directly into his room.

After news of Mu Yaoguang spread, Haji Shui firmly believed in her sister's perfection and was able to maintain her composure, but she still harbored some worries.

Now that Bai Ze is back, Luo Shui can finally relax and is now inseparable from him.

Unbeknownst to many, Bai Ze had become the backbone of the group.

He kept talking the whole way, both venting his frustrations and letting Bai Ze know what was going on at the school.

Back in Bai Ze's room, Luo Shui sat down on the sofa opposite him and asked, "What should we do next?"

"Wait."

Bai Ze turned on his smart bracelet and replied, "Everything is ready, we just need the right opportunity."

Once Yun Shu breaks through, we will have the confidence to launch a counterattack.

He also waited until his strength increased so that he could defeat Yun Shu again.

Reaching the sixth star level is a hurdle; only martial artists who can cross this hurdle can register their titles with the Martial Arts Association.

Before reaching six stars, one might be able to rely on brute force through resources, but once reaching six stars, one can only rely on the martial artist's own talent.

To be on the safe side, Bai Ze should take advantage of this time to improve his strength.

He opened the file Ye Weiyang had sent him and projected it.

"The Thoughts on Ascending a Height?"

Luo Shui didn't try to avoid it and immediately saw the contents of the document. "You plan to cultivate the 'Ascending Intent'? This martial art has quite a few side effects."

"Ah."

Bai Ze responded and browsed through "The Art of Ascending to the Peak," discovering that this martial art was indeed quite difficult.

It does indeed have significant side effects because it is so potent!

The martial art "Ascending Intent" is known as the "Number One Overbearing Martial Art of Heavenly Pass". It is even said that if the God of War were not the enemy of the gods, his martial art "Heavenly Path Killing Fist" might not be able to surpass "Ascending Intent" in terms of dominance.

Now that Bai Ze has obtained the "Ascending Intent," upon examining it, he finds that this martial art truly lives up to its name.

Ye Liuyun, the creator of "Ascending to the Peak," was once a student in the Literature Department of Yujing Martial Arts University. He can be said to have upheld the martial arts characteristics of the Literature Department, integrating ancient Dongxia culture into martial arts and creating Dongxia-style martial arts.

The name "Denglinyi" comes from an ancient poem from the Eastern Xia Dynasty, "Shuilongyin: Deng Jiankang Shangxinting". The hand gestures should reflect the meaning of the poem, which is passionate and generous.

It sounds like something out of an ancient scholar's style, but the foundation of this palm technique is quite unique, even unconventional.

Bai Ze once cultivated a secret technique for explosive power called "Qi Piercing the Rainbow." This technique allows one to channel true qi throughout the limbs and bones, unleashing extremely high speed and power in a short period of time, without the side effects of those forbidden techniques that require risking one's life.

The foundation of "Ascending to the Peak" is equivalent to a super-elevated version of "Aura Piercing the Rainbow," pursuing the intensity of a life-or-death forbidden move while overcoming the side effects of the forbidden move.

The creator of this technique, Ye Liuyun, believes that just as the human body has a self-protection mechanism, internal energy also has a self-protection mechanism.

What he sought was to transcend this self-protection mechanism and allow the offensive power of his true qi to be fully unleashed.

Forbidden techniques like the "Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique," "Self-Sacrifice Technique," and "Loyal Heart and Blood" were shortcuts he took in researching this path.

By studying forbidden techniques, the power of true qi can be unleashed and exploded, while overcoming its side effects, thus making forbidden techniques no longer prohibited.

To give a simple example, a certain gorilla surnamed Zheng has a unique explosive move called "Explosion". Through the clash of Yin and Yang, it unleashes extreme power, causing eight hundred damage to himself and a thousand damage to the enemy.

When this method of Yin-Yang clash fell into Ye Liuyun's hands, he would wrap it with another layer of Yin-Yang Tai Chi, creating a cycle. This not only allowed for meticulous control of the explosive power but also minimized its harmful effects on himself. Ye Liuyun actually implemented this seemingly outlandish idea.

"Ascending to the Peak" can be said to have moves that are all related to forbidden moves, yet none of them have any side effects, only their extreme power.

Of course, this applies to those who are able to master the "Ascending to the Peak" technique.

Without extremely high control over true qi and a high level of martial arts skill, the "Ascending Intent" technique is truly a life-or-death struggle; whether the enemy dies or not is unknown, but I am certain to perish.

Even if one can master the "Ascending to the Peak" technique with exceptional talent, one still has to endure the backlash of its powerful force.

Even if one can control their true energy with exquisite precision and overcome the side effects of forbidden techniques, that power itself is still a tremendous burden.

Just like driving a tank on an asphalt road, no matter how well you drive, it will still put a burden on the road and cause damage.

Even if a three-year-old child wields a sledgehammer with unparalleled skill, making it seem like an extension of their own arm, their body will still find it difficult to withstand the strain.

The greatest strength of "Ascending to the Peak" is its intensity, but its greatest weakness is also its intensity. It is so intense that the physical body and meridians cannot bear it.

Before you've mastered it, you need to worry about the backlash from forbidden moves.

After mastering the technique and overcoming the backlash, one still has to bear the weight of the power itself.

"Before Senior Ye Liuyun created the complete 'Ascending Intent', he once killed a six-star cultist with only five moves."

Luo Shui warned, "But after that, Senior Ye Liuyun was bedridden for three months."

The complete "Ascending Intent" was created by Ye Liuyun after he swept through martial artists of the same realm and broke through to the sixth star. The martial art that Bai Ze has now obtained has been perfected by Ye Liuyun.

It can be said that what Bai Ze saw in "Ascending to the Peak" far surpassed what he saw when he annihilated the Six Star Cultists.

But precisely because of this, its drawbacks are also greater.

To fully unleash the power of "Ascending Intent," one needs a physical body that surpasses their current realm, and not just temporarily, but a body that is forever one or even several levels higher than their current realm.

The stronger one's skill, the greater the power of "Ascending Intent" becomes. One cannot withstand it at the four-star level, and even at the six-star or seven-star level, one still cannot withstand it.

If one can withstand it, then the original powerful intention has been lost.

It is precisely for this reason that Mu Yaoguang has only now allowed Bai Ze to learn "The Meaning of Ascending to the Peak".

As for the backlash from forbidden moves, that's secondary.

Mu Yaoguang had complete faith in Bai Ze's talent and believed that he could overcome all the backlash.

Bai Ze has successfully cultivated the "Buddha Kingdom in the Palm" technique and should already be able to unleash the power of some of its moves.

No, there is another way.

Bai Ze browsed through "The Meaning of Ascending to the Peak," his eyes shining brightly.

Besides physical strength and meridian strength that exceed the current level, there is another way to unleash the power of "Ascending Intent".

That is its powerful resilience.

If you recover immediately after being injured, it's as if you weren't injured at all.

As long as my recovery speed is fast enough, the burden of "Ascending to the Peak" won't be able to catch up with me.
