From absorbing the essence of the sun and moon to achieving divine mastery in martial arts

Cang Lian and Chu Zhaoxue sat facing each other, and Cang Lian verbally explained the cultivation method.

After the two peerless martial arts techniques were exchanged, Cang Lian could not hide his excitement.

The acquisition of internal strength martial arts undoubtedly marked another significant step forward for him on his path of martial arts.

On the first day, the two of them immersed themselves in their newly acquired cultivation techniques.

Chu Zhaoxue closed her eyes to deduce the domineering methods of "Opening Heaven Force", while Cang Lian began to try to cultivate "Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound".

He studied every word, every breathing technique, and every detail of the tremor in the manual repeatedly.

As long as his understanding and practice slightly match the artistic conception described in the technique, the panel will immediately pop up in his mind and give positive feedback!

This means he no longer needs to spend months or even years "enlighten" like ordinary people. He only needs to keep trying and making mistakes, and the panel will tell him which path is correct!

He tried to adjust his breathing, making his breath long and deep, like the sound of bellows.

[Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound: Not a Beginner]

The panel is not responding at all!

He tried to induce a barely perceptible, high-frequency tremor starting from the soles of his feet while practicing Zhan Zhuang (standing meditation).

[Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound: Not a Beginner]

He tried to visualize, imagining that there was muffled thunder rolling and electric current flowing between his internal organs.

[Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound: Not a Beginner]

Time slips away unnoticed as we try.

Cang Lian was neither impatient for quick results nor discouraged in the slightest. Relying on her extraordinary comprehension and the visual progress panel in her mind, she gradually corrected the frequency of her breathing and the tremors of her muscles.

"The frequency is too high, it's damaging to the lungs and internal organs, no..."

"This time... the diaphragm vibration amplitude is insufficient..."

He tried again and again, frantically experimenting and making mistakes!

With such precise corrections that were almost like "cheating," Cang Lian's body underwent a strange change just the next day.

breathe--!

With each breath, his chest heaved violently like a bellows.

At first, the sound was just like a cat purring in its sleep, soft and delicate.

But as his breathing and the peristalsis of his internal organs resonated perfectly, the sound suddenly changed!

"Boom..."

At this moment, Cang Lian felt that she was no longer a body of flesh and blood, but a cloud that was giving birth to a thunderstorm.

When you inhale, the airflow rushes into your abdomen like a long river, and your internal organs seem to be kneaded into a ball in an instant, and then suddenly pulled apart by a force, producing a series of low, muffled thunderous roars.

As you exhale, this shockwave spreads along the spine to every part of your body, causing your bones to tremble and your marrow to heat up, as if thousands of tiny electric currents are washing over every inch of your muscles and bones.

Each time the "thunderous sound" rang out, he could clearly feel the impurities deep within his body being shaken out, and his qi and blood becoming heavier and more powerful, like mercury syrup.

Every breath felt like thunder was crashing into my chest!

Every heartbeat is like the beating of a war drum!

The entire body is being continuously strengthened and tempered in this internal and external shock!

He could clearly feel that his bones were becoming denser and his fascia was becoming more resilient!

"Is this the Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound? With each breath, my body is like a thunder drum, and my internal organs are throbbing!" Cang Lian suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes shining brightly, and his blood and qi surged so much that they almost overflowed from his body.

[Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound: 10/100 (Beginner)]

"you……"

Chu Zhaoxue, who was standing to the side, stopped her cultivation, her beautiful eyes filled with astonishment. "You've already mastered the basics in just one day? Judging from the depth of that thunderous sound, it seems you've been practicing for several months!"

She looked at Cang Lian as if he were a monster, then stood up, a hint of admiration flashing in her eyes: "In that case, I will lend you a hand. The most direct way to break through to the Dark Force realm is to be 'fed' by a master. I will use Dark Force to constantly stimulate your body, allowing you to personally feel that penetrating force, thereby clarifying your direction!"

"Thank you, General!" Cang Lian stood up and clasped his hands in thanks.

"They're here!"

Chu Zhaoxue said no more, her figure blurred, and her palm strike arrived.

She didn't use her full strength, but each palm strike contained a subtle yet penetrating force that penetrated through the skin and flesh, reaching deep into the marrow.

Each time he was struck by the hidden force, Cang Lian felt as if a cold steel needle was being churned inside his body. The piercing pain that went deep into his bones brought him to the brink of unconsciousness time and time again, but he managed to hold on thanks to the powerful recovery ability of his body.

Cang Lian gritted her teeth and persevered, constantly adjusting the way she channeled her energy through the control panel as she was repeatedly repelled.

Finally, after hundreds of encounters.

Bang!

The two men's fists collided violently in mid-air.

This time, facing Chu Zhaoxue's powerful and overwhelming force, Cang Lian did not retaliate head-on as usual.

In a moment of sudden inspiration, all the pores on his body tightened instantly, as if he had used the external force that struck him at that instant as a trigger.

He went with the flow, channeling this immense external force like a flood into a channel, along his arm bone, through his shoulder blade, and down his spine, finally sinking it deep into his dantian!

"Give me... Ning!"

Cang Lian roared inwardly.

Just as the external force and one's own qi and blood collided and compressed to the extreme in the dantian, the dantian suddenly contracted and then rebounded like a volcanic eruption!

An unprecedented power was born.

It is no longer the powerful and vigorous Ming Jin, but has become cold, sharp, and condensed like a needle!

This force exploded uncontrollably from the dantian, climbed up the spine segment by segment, instantly pierced through the arm, and fiercely "penetrated" out from the fist!

"Snap!"

A very faint sound, like bones cracking, rang out.

Cang Lian's arm appeared completely unharmed, but Chu Zhaoxue's arm had internal bones that felt like they were being pierced by steel needles!

The hidden strength has been achieved!

"I didn't expect to reach the Dark Force level so quickly!" Cang Lian felt a mix of surprise and delight as he experienced the new, penetrating power within his body.

"Not bad, not bad at all." Chu Zhaoxue flicked her wrist, and the sharp, dark energy that had invaded her body vanished instantly, like a mud ox sinking into the sea.

She looked at you approvingly: "You have a very solid foundation, and with the Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound to cleanse your marrow, refine your filth, strengthen your muscles and tendons, and enhance your membranes, plus my guidance, it is only natural that you have made a rapid breakthrough."

Cang Lian took a deep breath to calm his turbulent blood, but the fighting spirit in his eyes grew even stronger.

"General, I want to test my current maximum combat power!"

He had long wanted to find a true master to demonstrate all his knowledge without reservation.

Chu Zhaoxue stood with his hands behind his back, exuding the aura of a grandmaster, and calmly said, "Go ahead and attack. Let me see your full strength."

"Excuse me!"

Before he could finish speaking, Cang Lian's figure suddenly sprang up.

At this moment, he held nothing back.

The fierce and domineering nature of "Kai Tian Jin" is perfectly integrated with the long and explosive nature of "Hu Bao Lei Yin".

He stomped on the ground, his whole body like a tiger descending the mountain, the wind from his fists whistling, faintly mixed with the sound of wind and thunder.

boom! boom! boom!

The two figures collided at high speed inside the cave.

Every punch Cang Lian throws not only possesses the overwhelming power of obvious force, but also conceals the sinister and vicious nature of hidden force.

Just as the two were locked in the most intense battle, Cang Lian's eyes suddenly narrowed, and his spiritual power surged wildly within his sea of ​​consciousness.

Blood Soul Divine Needle!

A thin steel needle, under the cover of the punch, pierced fiercely towards Chu Zhaoxue's brow!

This is the real killer move!

However, Chu Zhaoxue remained calm and composed in the face of this deadly attack.

An invisible aura seemed to instantly spread around him.

The invincible Blood Soul Needle crashed into her aura, but it froze instantly, like a mud ox entering the sea.

Cang Lian's fist, which was imbued with the force of wind and thunder, was caught effortlessly by her seemingly slender hand. With a casual flick of her wrist, she sent Cang Lian flying.

Cang Lian landed on the ground and staggered back several steps before regaining her balance.

"Excellent!" Chu Zhaoxue's eyes gleamed with admiration, giving him extremely high praise. "That burst of power just now, especially that concealed divine needle attack, was impossible to defend against. With your current strength, at the Dark Force stage, you are already invincible!"

"Then... what about the Transformation Realm?" Cang Lian asked, calming his breathing. "How big is the gap between me and a Transformation Realm Grandmaster?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Zhaoxue's expression turned solemn: "The Transformation Realm is an insurmountable barrier."

She slowly said, "Masters of the Transformation Realm have reached the sublime level of listening to the opponent's energy, where 'not even a feather can be added, nor a fly can land.' More importantly, their spirit and will have been completely integrated into their bodies, generating 'momentum' and 'field' around them."

"Their reaction speed no longer relies on nerve conduction, but on an extreme level of 'instinct.' Unless your Blood Soul Needle is faster than their intuition, or your mental strength is strong enough to instantly crush their martial will, you will not be able to hurt them."

"I see……"

Cang Lian murmured to herself, but she felt no discouragement whatsoever.

Although his internal energy was strong, he had the Heaven and Earth Pearl in his hand, and his spiritual power was constantly growing stronger every day.

He believed that given time, surpassing the Transformation Realm was only a matter of time!
