One person: Orochi, starting with Feng Baobao's Eight Heroes.

"Then let's just watch!"

Wang shrugged indifferently.

"Chen Qi, are you ready?"

As soon as Jia Zhengliang appeared, twelve throwing knives flew out and hung behind him, immediately adopting a posture of all-out battle.

"I said, one slap!"

Chen Qi said calmly.

"Hmph, you're shameless for bragging. I watched your match carefully yesterday. Everyone else thought your two moves were perfect defensive counterattacks, one for ranged attacks and one for melee attacks, but I know that's not how it works!"

Jia Zhengliang said confidently.

"Oh?"

Chen Qi raised an eyebrow.

"Your two moves aren't for defending against melee and ranged attacks, but rather against both physical and energy attacks, right?"

Jia Zhengliang said.

"Correct!"

Chen Qi nodded without caring at all.

"But the rebounds of those two moves are different. The one for defending against energy can be rebounded twice as much at long range, but the one for close combat..."

"Shua~!"

A throwing knife behind Jia Zhengliang suddenly shot towards Chen Qi.

"God's finger!"

Chen Qi gently tapped the throwing knife with his finger.

"Crack~!"

The throwing knife was paused, then shot out and landed in the air, but was quickly controlled by Jia Zhengliang, turning a corner and flying back behind him.

"As expected, although your close-combat move defends against physical attacks, the rebound force can only be applied to the object that attacked it. If I throw a stone at you, you can only bounce off the stone. If I shoot a throwing knife at you, you can only bounce off the throwing knife!"

Jia Zhengliang said proudly.

"That's it!"

After saying something, Wang Ye looked at Zhuge Qing from the stands.

"Hehe, Daoist Wang Ye, don't be in such a hurry, this is just the beginning!"

Zhuge Qing smiled slightly.

"I rely on!!"

"Awesome!!"

"Well done, Jia Zhengliang!"

"So you really found Chen Qi's weakness?"

"So Chen Qi's power isn't so mysterious after all?"

"How is it not mysterious? The exponential rebound alone violates the laws of science, okay?"

　480 "Damn, you're trying to talk to me about science when we practice Qi cultivation?"

"Practicing Qi should be based on science..."

The stage was now in an uproar, with everyone watching the battle intently with great excitement.

They felt that Jia Zhengliang now had a real chance to beat Chen Qi.

This way, they will have one less powerful opponent.

"Yes, that's right. You're very observant, so what?"

Chen Qi looked at Jia Zhengliang with amusement.

"So? Your counter-attack with my throwing knives is useless against me, and your move that can defend against ranged energy is also useless against me, so I'm guaranteed to win!"

Jia Zhengliang said.

"Are you going to defeat me with your words?"

Chen Qi said provocatively.

"Then you can die, Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife!!!"

Jia Zhengliang's eyes narrowed, and he immediately manipulated twelve flying knives to attack Chen Qi from all directions.

"Buzz~~!"

Just like yesterday, ripples like water immediately appeared in the space within a meter in front of Chen Qi.

"It's useless. Your move can only absorb energy, that is, Qi, it can't absorb my throwing knife!!!"

Jia Zhengliang roared.

"That's why I said you're right, but how do you control your throwing knives?"

Chen Qi smiled faintly.

"My throwing knives are of course made using... what?"

Jia Zhengliang's pupils suddenly contracted, as if he had thought of something terrible.

Chapter 86 Lu Jin's Investigation!

"Swish swish swish swish~!"

In mid-air, the flying knives that were shooting towards Chen Qi suddenly seemed to lose control, tracing arcs before falling helplessly to the ground.

"Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding~!"

The sound of throwing knives hitting the ground felt like a blow to Jia Zhengliang's heart.

"How...how is this possible? My Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife..."

Jia Zhengliang murmured in disbelief.

"How is it, Daoist Wang Ye?"

On the stage, Zhuge Qing raised an eyebrow and looked at Wang Ye.

"Wow, how come I didn't think of that? Controlling objects also involves attaching Qi to them for manipulation. If Chen Qi absorbs the Qi, then they're just 12 ordinary throwing knives!"

Wang Ye slapped his forehead.

"Heh, you didn't expect that? Don't play dumb in front of me, at least show some respect for my intelligence, okay?"

Zhuge Qing smiled.

"...My fault!"

Wang Ye shrugged again.

offstage

"Jia Zhengliang, admit defeat!"

Chen Qi said calmly.

"Admit defeat? Who do you take me for, Jia Zhengliang? I'm going to beat you to a pulp today!!"

As Jia Zhengliang spoke, he actually raised his fist and charged at Chen Qi.

"Sigh, stubborn child, aren't you afraid of my magic finger?"

Chen Qi sighed and watched as Jia Zhengliang strode towards him.

Then. . .

"Crack~!"

A slap

Jia Zhengliang did a spectacular 720-degree spin before collapsing to the ground unconscious.

"Hey, this slap looks so familiar... Senior brother, didn't you slap me like this back then?"

In the stands

Sitting in his wheelchair, Tian Jinzhong spoke with a look of reminiscence.

"It wasn't just you; the same way he slapped me the first time I met the Celestial Master that year!"

A strong voice rang out, and the old master and Tian Jinzhong turned their heads to look, only to see Lu Jin, dressed in a suit, walking over from a distance.

"Old Lu's here! Let's not dwell on the past!"

The old Heavenly Master smiled.

"You can choose not to mention it, but I can't. That slap made me cry back then!"

Lu Jin said.

"What do you think of the person below?"

The old master quickly changed the subject.

"This kid is indeed formidable. It will be difficult to stop him from winning this time. However, his mind is probably on the Heavenly Scroll, so..."

Lu Jin seemed to be implying something.

Do you know his background?

The old celestial master asked.

“I sent people to investigate, and we couldn’t find out the identities of him, Feng Baobao, and Chen Duo. Their identities were blocked by the company. However, based on some information, I roughly deduced that one of the three of them is very likely a temporary worker of the company!”

Lu Jin said.

"Temporary worker?"

The old master narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, temporary workers. You should know that this position is very mysterious and special in All-Tong. The temporary workers in the seven regions are directly under the heads of the seven regions, outside the regular system. Each of them is outstanding, has a secret identity, and hides a huge secret!"

Lu Jin nodded and continued:

"Although his identity is kept secret, I still managed to find some of his mission briefings from the past two years!"

"This kid has carried out many tricky missions for the company. Many people who have fought him have had their meridians, bones and muscles broken, becoming crippled. Fortunately, General Manager Xu of the company's North China region has a specialist in treating these kinds of injuries, otherwise, there would be many more people crippled by this kid!"

Lu Jin's expression was serious.

"But this kid downstairs doesn't look like the type to use dismemberment techniques to commit violence, does he?"

Tian Jinzhong, sitting in his wheelchair, looked puzzled.

"It's not about dislocating bones and tendons, it's about his ability. Zhang Lingyu reported Yun's injuries to me yesterday. His rebounding force multiplies the force of the enemy's attack, affecting the opponent's entire body. Meridians, bones, muscles, and internal organs are all suddenly struck by that force!"

"Without a special healer, one hit would almost certainly cripple you, unless you are physically strong and your body's resilience far exceeds your own strength!"

The old Taoist priest said.

"Those whose physical resilience far surpasses their own strength? Then it must be the Quanzhen Sect, right?"

Tian Jinzhong suddenly realized.

Ordinary people cannot withstand the force of their own attacks; this is because the body's resilience does not exceed its own destructive power.

However, the Quanzhen School is different. The people of the Quanzhen School emphasize the cultivation of both body and mind. They are too lazy to learn any of those messy methods and just focus on cultivating their body and mind.

Sexuality: refers to spiritual energy, primordial spirit, and soul.

Fate: refers to the physical body.

This results in the Quanzhen sect members being energetic and resilient, and even their souls being incredibly tough enough to manifest their Yang spirit.

However, because they don't care about those miscellaneous methods, the Quanzhen Sect members just go for it head-on, and their methods are generally quite crude.

Only those whose cultivation of life force reaches a certain level and who are also interested will practice certain techniques.
