Ultimate Method: Practice your fist a hundred times, and use violence to control violence.

"Bang!"

Wan Ze closed the door. Wan's father was leaning back on the sofa reading a newspaper, wearing dark blue pajamas, his brows furrowed, as if he had seen some news that greatly annoyed him.

Seeing Wanze return, he looked up, quickly put down his newspaper, and asked with great concern, "You're back? Have you eaten? Do you want me to make you something?"

"I've already eaten." Wan Ze was somewhat amused and exasperated, casually taking off his coat and hanging it on the rack by the door. "Where's Mom?"

"Your Aunt Xu across the street invited her over for some handicrafts this afternoon, that's quite rare." Mr. Wan didn't think much of it, but instead inquired about the Dragon Eagle Martial Arts School: "I saw on the news today that there was a huge explosion in the western suburbs of Holy City, it seems to be related to your Dragon Eagle..."

Wan Ze was taken aback: "A huge explosion? When did that happen?"

Seeing this, Wan's father grabbed the newspaper from the sofa and pointed to one of the columns, saying, "It says it happened this morning, and it looks like there were casualties... How can practicing martial arts be so dangerous?"

"I've heard from my fellow martial arts students that some official organizations hire our more skilled senior students to carry out missions... High risk, high reward, I guess," Wan Ze explained, looking at the news in the newspaper.

Mr. Wan immediately became worried: "Xiao Ze, then are you...?"

Wan Ze looked up and laughed, "The money I earn isn't that complicated, and even if I wanted to participate in such an operation, the martial arts school wouldn't allow it... There are so many experts, why would they let a newbie like me participate? Aren't they enough to be a hindrance? So Dad, don't worry."

"That's true, Dad's getting senile." Mr. Wan became excited again at the thought of moving: "I looked at quite a few properties today, you pick one..."

"You and Mom can decide. If you don't have enough money, just tell me," Wan Ze said as he walked, carrying a newspaper.

Mr. Wan opened his mouth, but had no choice but to say helplessly, "Alright then... if we're free this weekend, how about we all go and see for ourselves?"

"I'm fine."

Wanze returned to his room, took out his communicator, and dialed Leiming, but the call did not go through.

He frowned slightly.

Some unpleasant thoughts began to form in my mind.

He looked down at the newspaper again.

[...On the 17th local time, an explosion was heard in the western suburbs of San Antonio, and at least three cars were involved in a collision. The extent of injuries and fatalities is still under investigation... (Image)]

The image happens to show the dragon eagle logo.

"Perhaps it was just an accident?"

Wan Ze pondered for a moment.

So far, the martial arts school has not responded.

He suppressed his thoughts, then took the notebook that Sun Fan had copied out of his bag, opened the first page, and had to admit that Sun Fan's handwriting was very elegant, the whole text was neat and easy to read.

……

"Heaven and earth steal from all things, all things steal from man, and man steals from all things. When these three thefts are in harmony, the three realms (heaven, earth, and man) are at peace."

[The secrets of Heaven are the pivotal mechanism of the operation of Heaven and Earth... Theft is not theft, but taking what is rightfully ours, using it in accordance with the opportune moment, in harmony with Heaven and humanity, not recklessly seizing against the Way...]

[Their methods of stealing the machine are hidden and difficult to spot...]

……

The desk lamp shone on the paper, and Wan Ze looked at it with extra care. These few hundred words were enough to explain what it meant to "steal the secrets of heaven".

In short, it's about lending cosmic energy!

Borrowing the power of heaven and earth...

However, it doesn't clearly explain how to steal the secrets of heaven... or rather, what actions can be judged as stealing the secrets of heaven.

He then looked at the last sentence… [“The mechanism it steals is unseen and unknowable by anyone in the world. A virtuous person who obtains it will cherish it, while a petty person who obtains it will disregard their life!”]

Under the cover of night, Wan Ze seemed lost in thought.

……

The next day arrived in the blink of an eye.

Wan Ze maintained the standing posture of the Vajra Subduing Tiger exercise, and as his Qi and blood converged within his body, his body emitted a faint rumbling sound.

He knew that this was the moment to make a breakthrough.

As time went on.

"Snapped!"

With a loud crack, the muscles and bones inside his body exploded, and a surge of air rushed back in.

Within the data frame, the "Beginner" label of "Subduing Tiger Vajra Kung Fu" has successfully changed to "Intermediate".

……

[Illustrated Guide: Subduing Tiger Vajra Skill] (Intermediate Level, Mastered)

[Effect: Stamina +0.02; Endurance +0.02; Strength +0.02]

[Advanced skill requirements: 500 instances of Qi and Blood Interaction, and Blood Tempering Level 2]

……

"The enhancement effect is that strong?"

Wan Ze couldn't help but gasp.

Quickly look at the personal attributes.

……

[Stamina: 0.89]

【Intelligence: 0.84】

[Agility: 0.79]

[Endurance: 0.82]

【Strength: 0.84】

[Coordination: 0.81]

……

"That's really strong..."

As for the high-level mission, he actually breathed a sigh of relief.

Because the second transformation of blood tempering is just around the corner.

My gaze swept back to the data frame.

The "Hun Yuan Xiantian Yang Qi Technique" that I obtained from Tie Qingyang last night has now successfully completed its initial stage.

……

[Illustrated Guide: The Complete Innate Qi Cultivation Technique] (Beginner Level Mastered)

[Intermediate skill requirement: three hours of meditation] (Progress 89%)

……

"I'm starting to look forward to seeing just how much benefit this Qi cultivation technique will bring."

Wanze closed his laptop and put it in his bag.

Besides "Hun Yuan Xiantian Yang Qi Technique", "Mi Zong Ying Bu" is also nearing the completion stage of its mission.

My little sister was already up outside the door, running around barefoot, which drew scolding from our parents. She kept chattering back.

Just as Wan Ze was about to leave, his communicator suddenly rang.

Incoming call reminder... Thunder.

"It's me, senior brother. Are you alright?"

"This is serious," Lei Ming said with a wry smile. "We underestimated the ruthlessness of the Secret Palace. Everything was proceeding according to plan until last night... Last night, Lie Hu brought their Secret Palace's Tiger Tally. After combining the two... you have no idea how amazing it was! With the help of moonlight projection, it actually projected a mysterious address!"

Wan Ze raised an eyebrow slightly, guessing what it was: "An imperial tomb?"

"I guessed so too. But I wasn't sure if it was true or not... Then those bastards from the Secret Palace turned on us! Professor Song was injured and is still in critical condition... Damn it, I just found out that when Liehu called their boss that night, they were actually communicating in code, confusing us all! If it weren't for Senior Brother Tan Xiao risking his life to fight our way out, you wouldn't be seeing me now."

Wan Ze's gaze darkened: "Did you kill Lie Hu and the others?"

"No... Senior Brother Tan Xiao and Lie Qi traded injuries for injuries, which gave us a chance to escape... Only a few small fry from the Secret Palace died, and in the end, that bastard Lie Hu took two Tiger Talismans and escaped unscathed!" Lei Ming was furious whenever he mentioned this, wishing he could kill his way back.

Wan Ze pondered for a moment and asked, "What did Master say?"

"If Senior Brother Tan Xiao hadn't been seriously injured, he probably would have given us all a good beating. But we still got scolded... We really made a fool of ourselves this time... Sigh, it's all my fault." Lei Ming said with a wry smile.

Wan Ze offered words of comfort, and the two only ended the call when he heard his sister urging him from outside the door.

After breakfast, Wanze took his younger sister to school, but after dropping her off, he turned around and went to the martial arts gym.

It was still early, and there weren't many people at the martial arts school. It seemed that no one knew about the secret battle with the Secret Palace.

"Junior Brother Wan, the sect leader wants you to come over. He's waiting for you on the second floor."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Upon hearing this, Wan Ze rushed to the backyard.
