Republic of China Era: Entering the Dao through Divine Strike.

That's just how people are; when they see a soft persimmon, no one can resist squeezing it.

Southern constables, the leader of the Yuanqing Society, and wandering martial arts masters. Even members of the Angsa Guild will come one after another.

No matter how well we hide, no matter how patient we are, we'll eventually run out of steam. Sooner or later, we'll be unable to cope and will have to slink away from the capital in disgrace—that's the best-case scenario…”

At this point, Li Xin's voice turned cold:

"Therefore, either do it at all, or do it thoroughly."

"I want to teach everyone a lesson: you can deal with me, but you absolutely cannot cause any disturbance to our yard."

Otherwise, as long as I live, whoever it is will face a devastating blow.

Zhuang Hongxiu's eyes lit up as she listened, and she nodded softly, "This is to establish authority. After this battle, the Southern Camp will be terrified, and anyone else who has any ideas will have to immediately withdraw their hands."

Once word gets out about the young master's achievements tonight, even the experts like the leader of the Yuanqing Society will have to think twice before doing anything.

"That's right. But any deterrence is temporary... As the days go by, if they don't suffer any real attacks, they will surely come up with all sorts of schemes and tricks to target them."

After all, hatred can never be erased, and letting go is far too difficult.

"What does the young master plan to do?"

"Give them hope, hope for revenge."

Li Xin smiled and said, "Hongxiu, tomorrow you need to find a way to send this black sticker to Wanhua Brothel and stick it on their door. I want them to live in constant fear."

Li Xin took out a rectangular piece of black paper, moistened his brush with white paint, and wrote several menacing characters in regular script on it:

Scammers and swindlers, forcing women into prostitution—they deserve to be punished!

Signed: February 2nd, the day the dragon raises its head, and all flowers wither.

As he picked up the pen, a few drops of white paint fell onto the paper, like dripping blood, adding a touch of murderous intent to the post.

"Ten days later?"

Zhuang Hongxiu was slightly startled.

They had clearly heard that the other party had set up the "Azure Dragon Emerging from Water Formation" and even chose the day of the Dragon Raising its Head on the second day of the second lunar month.

What is the young master thinking? Is he helping the other side gain momentum?

"That's right, it's good for the dragon to raise its head, and it's even better for the green dragon to emerge from the water."

Hongxiu, have you forgotten? What was the legendary first battle of [Nezha, the Third Prince]?

"Pulling out the dragon's tendons, tearing off its skin, and causing chaos in the East Sea."

"That's right, exactly."

Li Xin nodded.

The secret technique of "Nezha the Third Prince's Divine Intent" is about to be completed, with only 34% remaining.

He didn't want to piece together the progress bit by bit.

Or, put on a big show.

Use role-playing to thoroughly etch this secret technique into your own bodily instincts.

This lays the foundation for advancing the [Third Prince's Divine Intent] to the second level.

Why are you in such a hurry?

Because Li Xin had fought three battles that day and killed that Southern Camp Lieutenant General, he felt extremely exhausted, and a wave of weariness washed over him.

Upon careful observation of the depths of his mind, he discovered that he only had seven seconds left to unleash the [Divine Strike] technique.

Ultimately, it's an external method, an overclocking technique that unleashes all potential.

It cannot last.

If you encounter a formidable enemy at this time, you will inevitably be in some danger.

Under these circumstances, he might not even be able to defeat Senior Sister Feiyan without taking any damage.

Temporary attribute increases are not calculated.

His current [Constitution] is only 13 points, and [Agility] is 20 points.

Most importantly, even if one learns the powerful movement techniques and has extensive combat experience, the lack of the secret skills of "three heads and six arms, and the ability to project images into the void" will significantly slow down one's reaction time and drastically reduce one's combat strength.

If one can internalize this extremely useful secret technique, making it an instinct, and engrave it into one's soul and body.

Even if [physical condition], [agility], and [spirit] are slightly weaker.

In fact, the combat strength was not lost too much.

Even if you can't kill a master who has mastered the Yi Jin Jing and Duan Gu techniques, you're still fairly confident in surviving.

……

Chapter Forty-Eight: Another Promotion, Finding a Place to Live

"Let's go buy the medicine tomorrow, before everyone reacts."

Zhuang Hongxiu was only thinking about how to replenish her young master's lost vital energy as quickly as possible.

If one's Qi and blood become stronger, one's strength will increase significantly.

After today's battle, all sides, regardless of their thoughts, will calm down for a while.

Moreover, after posting the challenge...

Those lurking enemies will focus all their efforts on how to recruit experts to increase their strength and achieve victory in one battle.

They wouldn't be so preoccupied with using other methods to launch a sneak attack.

This is the young master's purpose.

That's really well thought out.

Zhuang Hongxiu was overwhelmed with emotion, but ultimately said nothing.

"Take a break first. I've gained some insight. I'll practice my boxing for a while longer," Li Xin said gently.

"Yes, young master."

After Zhuang Hongxiu left.

Li Xin sat at the table, adjusted the wick of the oil lamp, and sparks flew as the lamp became brighter.

He remained calm, silently observing his surroundings in the bedroom.

The moonlight in the courtyard was as clear as if it had been washed.

A cool breeze gently rustled the leaves.

No need to look up or open the window.

All the scenery appeared in his mind as if he were looking at the view outside the house through an old stained glass window.

It's not very clear, but it has an indescribable sense of tranquil beauty.

"promote."

At this time of night, when all is quiet, it is the best opportunity to improve one's physical fitness.

With a thought.

A total of 5.9 confidence points flashed 5 times in succession.

The "Constitution" column has changed several times, from 13 to 18.

An indescribable tingling, numbness, and swelling pain surged up from the depths of my bone marrow.

He felt his bones groaning and his muscles swelling.

The tendon openings at the joints are also gradually expanding, becoming tougher and stronger.

The blood and qi flowed slowly, transforming from a mountain stream into a raging torrent...

With each breath, a much stronger wave than before was grasped in his hand and transformed into a sharp aura.

"call……"

Without a sound or a trace.

At a subtle level inside the body, transformation and reorganization begin.

Li Xin stood up without realizing it, closed his eyes slightly, and carefully sensed the sensation.

The body is growing taller, the flesh is becoming stronger, and the bones are becoming harder.

Even their cardiopulmonary function and breathing rate underwent significant changes.

"He should be about 1.6 meters tall by now, right?"

"When I wake up tomorrow, I wonder if my older brother, Xiaoyue, and Hongxiu will be too shocked to see that I have grown almost ten centimeters overnight."

"With a physical condition of 18 points, not to mention qualities such as immunity and defense, just in terms of basic strength, it is about 540 pounds."

This level of physical strength is comparable to that of a gifted, incredibly strong heavyweight boxing champion.

This is only my twelfth birthday. There's still a huge amount of room for improvement.

I thought about the mismatch between my age and my physical condition.

Li Xin frowned in thought.

"So, is there any difference between the [physical], [agility], and [spirit] improvements gained through faith and the improvements that martial artists achieve through decades of dedicated physical training?"

The answer is yes, there are differences.

Experience your own physical condition.

Li Xin roughly figured out what exactly the three attributes he had improved were.

It is roughly a person's innate endowment.

The power of faith is applied to both the body and mind, allowing one's talents to make great progress.

Diligent practice leads to the simultaneous strengthening of one's Qi and blood, and the improvement of one's physical constitution.

Both can run in parallel without interfering with each other.

In terms of the amount of force used, there is no difference.

Some people are naturally gifted and are strong from birth; as they grow up, they can have a strength of seven or eight hundred pounds.

This is innate superhuman strength, a top-tier talent.

Some people are born with very poor physical abilities and are weak. When they grow up, they can't even lift a 100-pound object.

Their innate physical attributes are probably less than 5 points.

That's why some people say the difference between people is greater than the difference between people and dogs.

[Physical constitution] is like this.

The same applies to both agility and spirit.

Sometimes, hard work seems insignificant compared to natural talent.

But now, I can make up for my lack of talent, and even surpass it.

This is the advantage of being able to freely use [Faith Power] to enhance one's three attributes.

"After all, in legends, faith is also called incense offerings. It is a power that even gods and Buddhas have to contend for."

My ability to wield it freely is truly a stroke of luck... so it's no wonder that various extraordinary phenomena have occurred.

Li Xin figured out the reason for the changes in his body.

My heart is filled with boundless joy.

Even if I don't gain faith in the next ten days.

With the help of the good medicine I bought, I can accelerate my cultivation and improve my physique a little.

Once you reach 20 points in [Constitution], you can activate [The Great Sage Equal to Heaven's Divine Intent].

Legend has it that this person's fame was even greater than that of the Heavenly God of War. He was eventually bestowed the title of "Victorious Fighter," which means that in terms of combat, the Monkey King was never afraid of anyone.

I wonder what surprises await me when I see it on myself?
