The God of the Human Realm!

Chapter 110 The Return of Power to its Source, Extraordinary Force is Also Power

The gaunt old man's offer to take on a disciple was merely a ploy to lull Hong Yuan into a false sense of security. In reality, he had already been secretly accumulating power, which surged within his chest and abdomen, transforming into a deafening roar.

The roar was like a thunderclap, and in an instant, the air in front of the thin old man seemed to blur, distorting into a huge wave of air that swept outwards.

The glazed tiles on the roof of the main hall trembled with a buzzing sound, dust fell from the beams and pillars inside the hall, and small pebbles on the ground were stirred up by the air currents.

The thin old man's voice was sharp and piercing, unlike a human voice, as if it could penetrate straight into the brain, and carried a strange power that shook the mind and made people's souls fly away.

The two Jade Gate experts, one in black and one in red, who were still screaming in agony, were stunned by the roar and immediately lost consciousness.

More than a dozen disciples mustered their courage and drew their swords, ready to rush into the main hall and fight the evil god who was destroying their sect. At this moment, they also clutched their heads in pain, swayed, and tumbled down the long steps.

Hong Yuan stood there, his brows furrowed deeply.

"Boy, this 'Soul-Slaying Bell' isn't a pleasant experience for me, is it?"

Before the roar had even finished, the thin old man's joints crackled and popped, like popping beans, the sound of his powerful energy exploding.

His thin body swelled up as if filled with blood, and the muscles in his hands, feet and torso bulged, transforming him into a strong and muscular man in an instant.

His gray hair stood on end, not showing any signs of aging, but rather exuding a fierce aura, like an angry lion.

He suddenly stomped forward, and without any visible movement, he had already closed in on Hong Yuan's side in the blink of an eye.

"Ha! You'll take a move from this half-crippled man."

The gaunt old man's eyes were deep and cold, and a strange force surged within him as he flipped his palm.

He was the most senior member of the Zhongyu clan.

He experienced the most glorious period of the jade industry in his youth, witnessed its decline in his prime, and was over eighty years old at the time.

At such an advanced age, let alone an ordinary martial artist, even a master of subtle techniques would be unable to defeat him.

The reason this gaunt old man could still unleash peak combat power was because he was practicing genuine martial arts.

Even so, after this outbreak, with his body half crippled, he'll probably have one foot in the grave.

The gaunt old man had seen many rises and falls, but he felt he hadn't lived enough, so how could he not feel resentful?

The palm strike was as powerful as thunder and as swift as lightning. The two palms were like two dragons soaring up and crashing down on Hong Yuan's chest, who was standing there dumbfounded.

A cruel glint flashed across the thin old man's face, as if he could already see the scene of his opponent being blasted to pieces.

In this world, the central government of the Great Yin Dynasty is in disarray, and local prefectures belong to powerful families and various sects. With no laws to bind them and great power concentrated in one person's hands, there are naturally many people who do as they please.

This gaunt old man had once roamed the martial world in his youth, acting recklessly and killing countless people.

However, just as he was about to strike with full force, the air in front of him suddenly collapsed inward, and the strange power contained in his palms was forcibly pulled and dragged by an invisible force, surging towards Hong Yuan like a hundred rivers flowing into the same stream.

"what?"

The thin old man was taken aback.

The Jade Planting Sect is indeed a powerful force. Over the decades, it has cultivated two true skills: the Soul-Sweeping Bell and the Jade Planting Skill it is currently using.

However, it was precisely because of his lack of talent and his greed for merit that he forcibly combined two kinds of true skills, which damaged his own foundation and left him to hide in the sect and eke out a living.

Even his existence was known only to Wei Qingfeng and the four elders within the sect.

Since the gaunt old man achieved true skill and supernatural power, he had never seen such a bizarre thing: his own supernatural power was absorbed and swallowed by the other party.

Although it was less than one percent in that instant, it was enough to shock him.

As his brow twitched wildly, a hand descended with lightning speed, blocking the path of his hands.

"very noisy!"

Immediately, Hong Yuan's other hand moved as well, striking through the air with a palm strike.

The gaunt old man felt a blur before his eyes, and a palm print silently pressed against his chest. There was no violent burst of force, only a gentle yet irresistible penetrating power, like mercury spilling onto the ground, a cold wind penetrating to the bone, instantly invading every part of his body.

The old man let out a shrill scream, feeling his blood and qi being thrown into chaos, rapidly spreading to his limbs and bones.

His swollen body deflated as if all his bones had been removed. Then, Hong Yuan transformed his penetrating energy into a powerful force, and with a loud 'bang,' the thin old man flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing into the back wall before softly sliding to the ground.

"I thought he was a 'hidden master,' but he's just a 'star constellation monster'..."

After defeating the gaunt old man with a single palm strike, Hong Yuan did not continue his attack, nor did he care whether the other party lived or died. With a focused mind, he carefully comprehended the strange force that had been absorbed into his body!
'Special power?'

'Is this the extraordinary power gained from true mastery? Truly astonishing!'

Lei Meng of the Canal Gang wasn't even a half-baked expert; his Wave-Piercing Skill had only developed a tiny bit of supernatural power.

Strictly speaking, this was Hong Yuan's first encounter with supernatural forces.

Extraordinary power is the power that penetrates into the body's organs and is refined and condensed into a more refined and concentrated form, its nature surpassing that of mere physical strength.

Therefore, external forces naturally suppress internal strength.

Even a master of the Subtle Realm will experience agitation of qi and blood when faced with extraordinary forces, making it much more difficult to condense them into true power than usual.

Hong Yuan had already reached the fourth level of unprecedented power transformation, and his 'Six Void Forces' were sufficient to counteract the influence of external forces.

Even without the 'Six Void Forces', his qi and blood were so abundant that they were unbelievable, enough to 'quantity' contend with 'quality'.

The strange power absorbed into Hong Yuan's body surged in and began to frantically drain his life force, scattering like sparks in all directions.

However, Hong Yuan's 'Six Void Forces' can be transformed even faster. In the time it takes to breathe, this strange force is quickly digested and transformed into a part of the 'Six Void Forces'.

Hong Yuan vaguely sensed a subtle change in the Six Void Force.

He suppressed his thoughts for the moment, slowly walked to the side of the thin old man, and looked down at him: "Old man, you don't want the century-old foundation of Yumen to be destroyed in one fell swoop, do you?"

Half a day later.

Hong Yuan stepped into the Zhongyumen Library, holding several volumes of notes in his hand, leisurely flipping through them.

The gaunt old man was named Qi Changkong, and was the grand-uncle of the sect leader Wei Qingfeng. Although he was very old, he probably felt that eighty years old was the age to strive, so he readily handed over his treasures and various secret techniques and hidden words.

Hong Yuan glanced at the internal strength techniques, but focused on two genuine martial arts techniques.

"The Soul-Shattering Bell" and "The Jade-Planting Skill"!
Even Hong Yuan didn't expect that his impulsive act of 'stealing the base' would yield such great results. Originally, he had intended to obtain the true essence of Wei Qingfeng's skills.

In fact, Wei Qingfeng, as the sect leader, only knows one true skill, namely the secret "Jade Planting Skill".

The Soul-Shaking Bell was actually obtained by Qi Changkong through a series of fortuitous events. Hong Yuan was reading the Soul-Shaking Bell. It was a sonic technique that, when activated, could shake the mind of an enemy, and even a moment's lapse in concentration could determine life or death.

A very practical exercise.

The reason it was ineffective against Hong Yuan was simply because his comprehension level was too high, which reflected in his own spirit as being incredibly resilient.

"Even the subtlest techniques are merely variations in the methods and forms of force, focusing only on the changes in the shape of the force! But true skill involves a change in its nature..."

Hong Yuan focused intently on the "Soul-Swaying Bell" technique, carefully studying it until he gradually understood it.

"No wonder gender transformation is called a supernatural power or immortal technique. Regardless of how much combat power this true cultivation method increases, the cultivation concept alone has far surpassed the level of force transformation."

This "Soul-Shattering Bell" uses a unique method to refine one's own strength into the 'throat' and 'heart'!
When the energy is regenerated from these two organs, it acquires the attributes of 'sound waves' and 'fierce energy'.

He unleashed the murderous intent and evil thoughts in people's hearts, transforming them into a roar that intimidated the enemy, causing them to lose their composure and become helpless victims.

The Jade Planting Technique involves channeling energy into the liver and blood, nurturing the wood element from the liver, and acquiring the ability to devour from the blood.

Once the "Jade Seed Technique" is mastered, when fighting an enemy, one can use their own unique power as a seed to seep into the enemy's body, take root, sprout, and devour their life force.

"The 'Layered Waves Technique' obtained from the Canal Gang is not only a rudimentary form, but it can only cultivate one organ, the 'kidney,' while the 'Jade Planting Technique' and the 'Soul-Shaking Bell' cultivate two organs and achieve two different natures..."

"This is a huge windfall!"

Hong Yuan sighed, then compared the two genuine skills with the "Heavenly One True Water Skill" in his mind.

Although the "Heavenly One True Water Technique" was only an incomplete copy, after Hong Yuan verified it one by one, he discovered that the mystery of this technique might even surpass the two true techniques of the Jade Gate.

Hong Yuan was only slightly tempted, but he had no intention of completing the skill set. Rather than wasting that time, he would rather collect more genuine skills.

Although the other major sects may not be as pragmatic as Zhong Yumen, his 'Six Void Forces' are not to be underestimated.

My previous encounter with Qi Changkong proved that the 'Six Void Forces' are also effective against supernatural forces. If it can break through force, it can naturally analyze supernatural forces as well, although it is much more troublesome.

But it is also temporary.

Hong Yuan had an idea in his mind: once he had collected enough true skills, he would upgrade the 'Six Void Force' to the 'Six Void Skill'.

The method of applying all force is applicable, and true skill is no exception.

In the blink of an eye, his gaze fell upon the "Jade Planting Technique".

Let's try the basics first!

Hong Yuan acted on his thought immediately, leaping out of the library and heading straight into the depths of Yuyang Mountain.

Although Zhong Yumen was defeated and Qi Changkong was seriously injured, and only Qingyu and Baiyu of the four elders were in better condition, Hong Yuan was, after all, cultivating true skills for the first time, and no one knew what changes might occur, so of course they had to be cautious.

Whoosh!
Hong Yuan darted through the mountains and forests with the speed of a mountain spirit, quickly leaving Zhong Yumen behind. Soon after, he arrived at a secluded place. After sensing his surroundings with his mind for a moment, he began to cultivate according to the secret method.

Strands of energy spread out, wandering through his limbs and bones, and under his control, they rapidly surged into his liver and merged into his blood.

time flies.

Hong Yuan's brows relaxed, and he suddenly opened his eyes. It wasn't because he felt any discomfort or backlash, but because refining the energy into his body's organs was much easier than he had imagined.

The notes record that the force is explosive, but the human body's internal organs are fragile, and the slightest carelessness can lead to the destruction of one's skills and death.

But thinking about it, it's not surprising. Hong Yuan has strong bones and tough internal organs, which are enough to withstand the impact of force. Moreover, he has cultivated the "Six Void Forces". His control over force is so strong that probably no one in the world can match him.

If even he found it difficult to master the true skills, how can others possibly acquire them?

A moment later, Hong Yuan closed his eyes again, silently observing his own strength.

Da da da!
On the official road, dozens of riders galloped by, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The group of people were all dressed in the colors of the Jade Gate, and the disciples had solemn expressions.

The leader was a handsome man in his thirties with a lean and refined appearance. He wore a green robe, had a calm face, and his eyebrows were like swords, but at this moment he exuded a cold and aloof aura.

This person is none other than Wei Qingfeng, the sect leader of Zhongyumen!
After receiving the news at the front line, Wei Qingfeng quickly returned to the prefectural city to find out who dared to provoke his Zhongyumen and even kidnap two elders.

Before he could even take a sip of hot tea, another message arrived from the gate, delivered by a hawk. After reading the letter, even Wei Qingfeng, with his composure, felt a wave of dizziness.

He didn't even care whether there was a trap, and led his men back to the sect at top speed.

If we don't go back now, let alone rebuild the sect, it's uncertain whether our old base will even exist.

The coldness in Wei Qingfeng's eyes was almost tangible.

With the thunder of hooves, Yuyang Mountain finally came into view in the distance. Wei Qingfeng couldn't wait any longer. He pressed his palm on the horse's back and leaped into the air.

Just as they were about to rush up the mountain, they saw a young man in black robes slowly descending the mountain path, like a tourist returning home after having enjoyed himself.

But Wei Qingfeng suddenly froze, his sharp, sword-like gaze piercing through.

Yuyang Mountain is the location of the Yumen garrison, so why would there be any tourists? Moreover, the other party gave him a very unusual feeling, making him feel as if he had encountered a natural enemy.

"Greetings, Sect Leader Wei!" The young man in black robes smiled and waved to him.

Wei Qingfeng took a deep breath, his expression becoming serious: "Who exactly are you? It seems that my Zhongyumen has no enmity with you."

Hong Yuan laughed and said, "Sect Leader Wei is also the head of a sect. Why is he saying such childish things? Did everyone Sect Leader Wei kill have a grudge against you?"

"Sect Leader Wei, could you grant me one request?"

Wei Qingfeng's eyes flashed: "What are the conditions?"

"Please stay obediently inside the mountain gate and don't go out for a month or two," Hong Yuan said with a smile.

Wei Qingfeng said, "What kind of joke are you telling?"

Hong Yuan sighed and shook his head: "As expected, words are always pale and powerless. In that case, Sect Leader Wei, then I'll have to offend you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hong Yuan walked towards Wei Qingfeng at a steady pace. Wei Qingfeng's sleeves billowed as he prepared to strike. When the two were about ten feet apart, Wei Qingfeng suddenly roared and pounced out like lightning, his palm wind swirling within his sleeves.

The next moment, a slender, fair hand arrived first, suddenly tearing his robe sleeves. As the shredded cloth fluttered like butterflies, a finger struck his chest.

puff!
Wei Qingfeng groaned, his face filled with horror, as if he had seen a ghost.

"Jade Planting Technique?"

The figure in black robes slowly walked past him. Wei Qingfeng's internal energy and blood rebounded, causing blood vessels under his skin to rupture, blood to splatter, and he fell straight down.
