Half-human, half-ghost, the number one divine fist

Hoping for Rong Chongming's protection and the gang's justice?

Meaningless.

In this cannibalistic world, in these gangs where interests are intertwined, the only reliable things are whether your own fists are strong enough and your life is resilient enough.

Cultivate, become stronger, strong enough to control your own destiny, no longer to be manipulated like duckweed, no longer to be treated as a pawn to be discarded at will!

Once the thought is made up, all other thoughts disappear.

He stopped thinking about the impending doom and the schemes of Du Zhenyun, Hu Tiannan, and Rong Chongming.

All the spirit was focused on the circulation of Qi and blood within the body, slowly pushing it forward according to the image of the Qi and blood furnace in the "Rong Chongming Hundred Refinement Iron Armor Stance" visualization diagram.

Qi and blood flow like a stream, initially subtle, gradually converging into rivers, surging along specific meridian pathways, nourishing the injured area, and repeatedly washing over and moisturizing every inch of the skin.

The tingling, itchy, slightly warm, and tight sensations returned, clearer and stronger than before the injury.

This practice session lasted until the afternoon.

Tap tap tap, the sound of footsteps came.

The courtyard gate was opened, and Rong Chongming arrived.

Rong Chongming walked in, his gaze sweeping over Lin Fusheng. He was slightly taken aback when he saw the fine sweat still damp on Lin's forehead and the lingering light in his eyes.

This kid, the first thing he did after being able to get out of bed was to bury himself in cultivation?

That temperament, that drive...

He couldn't help but sigh again.

He's definitely a promising talent.

Pity.

The thought, once it crossed his mind, even he himself felt it was somewhat hypocritical, but a trace of regret was indeed present.

Rong Chongming couldn't help but ponder.

Is there any other way to bypass Du Zhenyun's arrangements, or to protect him at some other cost?

But after a moment's thought, she rejected the idea.

Should we confront Du Zhenyun head-on?

For Lin Fusheng, who has not yet truly grown up?

This is not only unwise, it's downright foolish.

He doesn't want to confront Du Zhenyun directly right now; it's not part of his plan.

Suppressing these useless thoughts, Rong Chongming put on his usual expression, tinged with elder's concern: "How are you feeling? Your injury is healing quite quickly."

"Thank you for your concern, Uncle Rong. I'm much better now."

Lin Fusheng spoke calmly.

"Okay, that's good."

Rong Chongming nodded and got to the point, "What are your plans next? The operation is estimated to take place within a month, so time is very tight."

Before Lin Fusheng could answer, Rong Chongming offered his advice, speaking from experience.

"In my opinion, your most urgent task is to focus on mastering the Six Harmonies Fist. The Iron Armor Stance is fundamental, but progress is slow and it's difficult to achieve a qualitative change in a short period of time."

"Liuhequan is a fighting technique. The more proficient you are, the more you have to protect yourself and kill your enemies in actual combat. Spending more time practicing the boxing techniques and analyzing them in actual combat is more practical than burying yourself in stance training."

At this point, Rong Chongming looked at Lin Fusheng.

He truly meant what he said.

Although Lin Fusheng was certain to die, he would not hesitate to offer his guidance, so perhaps Lin Fusheng would still have a chance to survive?

Hearing Rong Chongming's words, Lin Fusheng shook his head.

"Uncle Rong, I think I should focus on mastering the Iron Armor Stance now. I feel like I'll be able to perfect the Iron Armor Stance soon, and then I can try to break through the Stone Skin."

"Stone skin?"

Rong Chongming's brows immediately furrowed.

His eyes revealed a sense of disappointment, as if he thought the child was too young.

Immediately, Rong Chongming's tone became more serious: "Fusheng, what you're saying shows you lack cultivation experience. For martial artists, daily cultivation and accumulation aren't the most difficult things; the most difficult thing is breaking through barriers! Especially the first major breakthrough, from mortal to stone skin, that's a hurdle."

"Uncle Rong, I've seen many people get stuck for two or three years after perfecting their stance training, and they still might not succeed! Do you think that once you've perfected your stance training, your level will naturally follow? It's not that simple! It requires an opportunity, enlightenment, hard work, and even luck."

"Do you know why I wasn't surprised that you were close to perfection after three months of practicing stance training? It's not a rare occurrence; it only proves that you do have talent in terms of aptitude and comprehension, but breakthroughs are different."

"I reckon the operation will begin in a month at most. In that little time, you'd be lucky to even master the Iron Armor Stance, let alone the Stone Skin. Listen to me, practice your boxing! Improve your Six Harmonies Fist; it will greatly enhance your combat ability, and that's the most practical thing right now!"

Lin Fusheng paused for a moment.

He knew that Rong Chongming was referring to "common sense".

But he has his own "casting method visualization diagram" and his own clear perception.

Although he had never broken through, he had a feeling that he was not bound by any constraints.

"Uncle Rong, I have taken your advice to heart."

"However, I still want to try breaking through to the Stone Skin Realm first. Could you please give me more pointers on the key points of breaking through to the Stone Skin Realm? Also, when the Iron Armor Stance is perfected, are there any special tips for the circulation of Qi and blood?"

Lin Fusheng naturally wouldn't mention anything about visualization diagrams, but since there was no other reason, he might as well just ask directly.

Seeing Lin Fusheng's stubbornness, Rong Chongming's disappointment deepened.

Young people, you're thinking too simply.

Do you think cultivation is just about drinking water and eating?

Can last-minute cramming lead to a breakthrough?

Such impracticality seems to indicate certain death.

Originally, he still harbored the hope that if Lin Fusheng could truly hone his boxing skills to a higher level before the death match, there might be a slight chance that he could create a miracle through ruthlessness and luck.

But now it seems that this kid is simply courting death by pinning his hopes on the vague and illusory path of rapid breakthrough.

"Fine, if that's how he wants to think, there's no point in forcing him. He chose this path himself."

With this in mind, Rong Chongming looked at Lin Fusheng.

"Since you insist, then I'll tell you about it."

Rong Chongming sighed and stopped trying to persuade him.

As the head of Anren Hall, he was experienced in cultivation. He immediately suppressed his temper and explained in detail the key points to pay attention to when breaking through the Stone Skin Realm, the common obstacles, and the subtle methods of how to penetrate the skin more subtly and enhance its toughness and defense in the later stages of Iron Armor Stance cultivation.

This knowledge was quite valuable to ordinary martial artists, and Lin Fusheng listened attentively and silently took notes.

After giving his instructions, Lin Fusheng suddenly spoke again:

"Uncle Rong, I have another favor to ask."

"you say."

"Could you teach me another stance training method?"

Rong Chongming was taken aback: "Pass on another method? Why? One person should practice one stance training method. Trying to do too much at once will only lead to failure. Moreover, different stance training methods may conflict in their blood and qi circulation. Practicing a second one will not only be useless, but may also disrupt the fundamentals, causing harm rather than benefit."

This is common knowledge in martial arts.

Lin Fusheng had already prepared his explanation, and his face appropriately revealed a hint of sadness and earnestness: "I know the reason. It's just that this operation is dangerous, and I'm afraid that if I don't come back, I'll have a younger brother at home who is still young. I want to leave him a martial arts technique, as a memento. I won't practice it myself, I just want to memorize it."
