Under One Person: Starting with the Dual Cultivation of Body and Soul.

Therefore, after this force invaded his body, in order to maintain the logical consistency of the list system, it automatically judged him as a high-level member with horns!

"Isn't this also a screening mechanism for the directory's own members?"

Li Chang'an gradually came to understand the situation. To become a member of the list, besides being developed into a family member like him, one could also voluntarily convert to evil.

And both are examples of turning to evil.

Some people will become high-ranking officials with horns.

Some people, however, will become low-ranking, hornless individuals.

Just like that guy called "Evil Disease," who, because of his fanatical worship of evil, voluntarily converted to evil, became a member of the List organization, and gained abilities.

However, he was relegated to a low-ranking position without horns, and had to unconditionally obey the orders of higher-ranking personnel, who did not treat him as a human being at all.

Driven by a mad yearning for evil, he personally experienced the greatest evil in the world within this organization: an insurmountable hierarchy.

He was unwilling and terrified, and in order to escape the control of the higher-ups, he hid on Nathan Island.

This person with a serious illness is just like Lord Ye in the idiom "Lord Ye loves dragons but is terrified of them".

A person who worships evil yet fears evil is destined to be dominated by evil, therefore, he is not worthy of horns.

Li Chang'an is not controlled by evil, so he is naturally a member with horns who controls evil.

Chapter 148 Experimental Capabilities

After clarifying the logic behind it, Li Chang'an closed his eyes, calmed his mind, and used his intermediate state awareness to examine what was special about the current state.

He discovered that his muscle density and bone strength had greatly improved. Moreover, the rate of cell differentiation and regeneration had also increased significantly, which meant that he would have a strong self-healing ability.

However, for Li Chang'an, this was only slightly better than nothing.

Even the fastest self-healing cannot compare to the Qi transformation and recovery of the triple rebirth.

Besides the physical enhancement, Li Chang'an also discovered a very important point: he had not yet lifted the Reverse Life state. In other words, his current state could be stacked with the Reverse Life state.

However, it's just an accumulation, not a multiplication like activating a reverse life state after improving one's lifespan.

One is addition, and the other is multiplication.

As for why this is the case, Li Chang'an could see it very clearly in the intermediate state: one direction was inward, and the other was outward.

The Reverse Life Triple is the flow of Qi through the meridians, establishing the ability of rituals.

This transformed state of conversion is like something attaching itself to the body and soul; it is external, like a layer of armor.

Therefore, it will not conflict with the Reverse Life Triple, but it will also not have any special effects of rapid advancement.

In general, Li Chang'an felt that this transformation was very similar to the transformation of a divine mask, and he even felt that the transformation of a shaman after invoking a god was based on a similar principle.

"If that's the case, no wonder in the story, Lü Liang's Dual Hands could allow Lu Linglong to return to her original form. However, although it's attached to her life, it's ultimately just a kind of supernatural power. As long as you find the right method, you can end this state just like the actor puts away his divine mask."

With this thought in mind, Li Chang'an gathered the energy attached to the surface of his body and returned it to his dantian.

Immediately afterwards, the membranous wings on his back, the horns on his forehead, the scales on his body, and the sharp claws all merged into his body inch by inch, and in the blink of an eye, he was restored to his original state.

Li Chang'an turned his arm over, examined it carefully, and ran his hand over it. His arm was smooth, without any trace of the previous rugged scales.

"They've really changed completely!"

"This kind of ability is quite rare in the country."

Li Chang'an looked out the window and suddenly decided to try out his previous state. After all, he had a pair of very large wings, and he wanted to see if he could fly.

Flying is a very rare ability in the world of supernatural beings. Very few people can fly by relying solely on their own Qi. Most flying is achieved by manipulating objects, such as the flying knives that Jiajia Village uses to fly.

It is possible to fly by reversing the cycle of rebirth three times, but that requires three rebirths.

Li Chang'an took out a new set of clothes from his pouch, changed into them, pushed open the door, said goodbye to Lu Linglong and Lu Lin, and then went out. He took out his phone, glanced at the map, found a secluded place, and took a taxi there.

Upon arrival and payment of the fare, Li Chang'an made several leaps and bounds, arriving at a remote and desolate wilderness far from human habitation.

On the empty wasteland, overgrown with weeds, Li Chang'an took off his shirt and put it into his food pouch. He took a deep breath, and with a series of cracking sounds, his body began to twist. Huge white membranous wings unfurled from his back, scales appeared all over his body, his fingers turned into sharp claws, and horns sprouted from his head...

In an instant, he entered demonic mode, moved the pair of huge white membranous wings on his back, and did not exert much force, but merely tentatively flapped them lightly.

"call!"

A sudden gust of wind swept up from the ground, swirling around and leaving the surrounding area in a mess.

Li Chang'an stopped fanning himself and slowly stretched out the white membrane wings on his back. He discovered that these white membrane wings could actually attract wind elements.

The gale that just occurred was not simply caused by flapping his wings. Rather, it was the flapping of his wings that naturally stirred up the surrounding wind elements, and the combination of the two created the gale.

"Are wings the medium through which I control the wind element?"

Thinking of this, Li Chang'an bent his knees slightly and suddenly leaped into the air. When he was in mid-air, the membrane wings on his back flapped and he rose several meters higher.

He began to flap his wings frequently in the air, and each flap would create a strong wind, allowing him to rise even higher.

But amidst the flapping of wings and the howling wind, he struggled to control his body, sometimes rising and falling, sometimes spinning, sometimes tumbling.

Once he stops flapping his wings, he will fall rapidly.

After experimenting for a while, Li Chang'an landed on the ground: "It seems that to truly control flight with these wings, one needs to master some techniques for generating power and manipulating wind elements; it's not enough to just blindly flap the wings!"

Li Chang'an recalled the Quetzalcoatl in the documentary and the huge commercial airliner. Their flight did not rely on flapping their wings; the key was to find the right airflow and glide.

"In other words, you don't need to flap your wings frequently. You only need to flap them once to create a strong wind. After taking off, you can find the point of airflow, learn to control the airflow, and then control your direction by flapping your wings."

Wings are just a steering wheel, not an engine.

Having understood this, Li Chang'an tried again, no longer focusing on flapping his wings, but instead using the membrane wings on his back to sense the wind flowing in the surrounding air.

Although I understand the principle, it is easier said than done, and the process of putting it into practice is not smooth.

He was like a fledgling bird learning to fly, flapping his huge white wings incessantly on the wasteland, leaping up again and again, only to fall down again and again.

Gradually, he figured out some tricks of the trade. He could glide in the air using his wings, but he was still a little unskilled when turning and ascending.

Through repeated attempts, his control over the wind element also improved. He could feel the gusts of wind created by flapping his wings completely under his control. He didn't need to flap his wings forcefully; with just a gentle wave, an airflow would lift him higher and higher.

The wind howled around him, and Li Chang'an used his wings to sense every change in the airflow, adjusting the angle of his wings and the lifting force of the wind. He flew higher and higher, more and more steadily, and could even hover in mid-air by controlling the airflow.

At this moment, he hovered nearly two hundred meters above his body, looking down at the city lights below, which stretched out in the night.

The exhilarating feeling of being able to control the direction at will surged into my heart. It was a joy from the heart, independent of any external feedback, simply a feeling of exhilaration for the ability itself.

An unprecedented sense of exhilaration welled up inside him. He understood that this was the joy that arose from the fulfillment of humanity's most primal desire for flight since ancient times.

Li Chang'an hovered in the air, a carefree smile on his lips. Just as he was about to fall, a thought suddenly occurred to him.

These wings are useful, but they are too big and too conspicuous. They are easily destroyed in battle. I wonder if I can use the Reverse Life Triple Transformation technique to transform them into Qi. If I can transform them into Qi, will I still be able to create a gale?

Chapter 149 Wings of Light

Li Chang'an was a man of action. He immediately lowered his altitude and stopped at a height of about ten meters above the ground, and began to try to transform the Qi into the wings on his back.

With a thought, the enormous white wings suddenly transformed into two long, slender streams of white light, fluttering slowly behind him like two cloaks.

At first glance, it looks like it has two wings of light growing from its back, somewhat like the energy wings of an angel in Diablo.

Wings fluttered slowly behind him, and the pair of crystalline white horns on his head, along with the white light bursting from his eyes, created a powerful visual impact that was both graceful and divine.

Subsequently, Li Chang'an tried to control the wind element with the wings transformed from Qi. The wind remained obedient and was even more sensitive than when the wings were solid, because Qi itself is energy and has a higher affinity with the wind element.

Moreover, maintaining the Qi transformation of the wings is not a big burden for Li Chang'an. He can easily maintain it for ten days or half a month. This is also a characteristic of the Reverse Life Triple. Zuo Ruotong can maintain Reverse Life and maintain the Qi transformation of the internal organs for decades. It is naturally no problem for Li Chang'an to maintain a pair of wings.

Looking at the hazy wings of light behind him, Li Chang'an made a high-speed dive, leaving two long white trails behind him, and the ground rapidly magnified in his field of vision.

He didn't slow down until he was less than two meters off the ground, then suddenly spread his wings, driving the gale. His body was almost touching the ground as he took off, and the gale swept across the ground, pressing down all the wild grass.

Li Chang'an soared upwards, performing a side flip in mid-air. Since the light wings were not physical, the flip was completely smooth without any resistance from the air.

During the flip, he changed direction and flew towards the hotel, his wings leaving two straight white lines behind him, giving him the feel of an unidentified flying object that occasionally appeared during this period.

At that moment, he suddenly noticed that someone in the window of a high-rise office building next door was holding up a mobile phone and pointing it at him.

Li Chang'an flapped his wings and suddenly veered to the left, circling to the other side of the building, leaving only a fading white light in the air.

The person holding the phone rubbed their eyes, leaned towards the window, and saw only the city's night view and an empty night sky outside. They turned on their phone, and the screen showed only a hazy white light.

Li Chang'an had already flown far away. As he flew, the whispers in his ear never stopped. The voices inside kept seducing him, saying that he was destined to stand on the mountaintop, that everything going his way was his privilege, that this world existed only to welcome his arrival, and that everything he wanted in this world should be his...

If it were an ordinary practitioner, even if they could resist for a short time, it would be difficult to last. They would be slowly infiltrated and shaken by these voices, and eventually be assimilated without realizing it.

But Li Chang'an's id remained aloof, and these whispers were like waves on a calm lake, unable to stir the slightest ripple in his heart.

However, the constant murmurs in his ears were not a pleasant thing. When he flew near the hotel, he folded his horns and wings, returned to his normal appearance, and landed on the ground.

After dispelling his demonic state, the eerie whispers disappeared, and his ears were instantly at peace. He took out clean clothes from his pouch, changed, and returned to the hotel. Lu Jin had already returned and was sitting in the lobby with Lu Lin, reviewing the previous competition.

"The difference in strength is still too great. Your opponent has a crushing advantage in cultivation and experience. Although you managed to turn the tide a few times by relying on the Reverse Life Triple Realm, such a large gap cannot be easily bridged."

Lu Jin comforted her, "Lin'er, you don't need to worry about it. The other person is two generations older than you. You've been able to persevere for so long. Everyone will give you a thumbs up."

Lu Lin nodded: "Grandpa, I don't care about these empty titles. I care more about what I've gained from these competitions. These kinds of competitions are more effective at helping people improve than sparring with their peers. I plan to challenge them again."

Lu Jin said, "The first time you went to challenge them, you caught them off guard. This time, I'm afraid you won't be so lucky."

There was one more thing he didn't say: with his junior brother losing, the other side would definitely be worried that Li Chang'an would go to challenge them for revenge, so they would definitely send even stronger people. If Lu Lin went, she would be even less likely to succeed. In fact, he would prefer Li Chang'an to go instead of Lu Lin.

Lu Lin said, "I don't care. I don't care about winning or losing, I just want to prove my skills."

Lu Jin said, "Your attitude is quite good. Since you don't care about these things, then go ahead. By the way, where's Chang'an? I haven't seen him."

Lu Lin said, "Senior brother said he wants to go out for a walk by himself. He should be back soon."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Jin turned to look out the window and saw Li Chang'an appear in the courtyard.

"Grandpa!"

Li Chang'an greeted her with a smile. As for Lu Linglong's situation and what had just happened to him, he had no intention of telling Lu Jin. At this stage, telling her would only be a waste of time and energy.

"You went out for a walk? What did you think of the night view in Tianjin?" Lu Jin asked.

Li Chang'an recalled the scene of looking down at the city from high above, with lights spreading along both banks of the Haihe River, Western-style buildings and modern skyscrapers interspersed, and the Tianjin Eye slowly turning in the night. He said, "It's beautiful. It's both stylish and retro, with lights stretching far and wide."

Lu Linglong suddenly popped out, a tuft of her pink hair sticking up, glaring at him angrily: "Brother Chang'an, that's too much! You went out to play without inviting me?"

"Just taking a casual stroll. Didn't you want to rest and rejuvenate?"

"That's right, Linglong, stop thinking about playing all the time!" Lu Jin looked at Li Chang'an: "Lu Lin wants to challenge the dojo again. Chang'an, why don't you give it a try too?"

Li Chang'an shook his head and said, "Since the Grand Master doesn't plan to establish a school here for the time being, there's no point in me going to kick it. I'll go when the Grand Master decides to forcefully establish a school."

Lu Jin nodded and said, "Okay, that's what I was thinking too. So that people in the industry won't think that our Sanyi Sect is bullying others."

The next morning, before Lu Lin even left the hotel, Feng Shayan and Feng Xingtong's car was already parked in front of the hotel.

Feng Shayan was dressed in a tight leather outfit, her short hair neatly combed. Feng Xingtong rolled down the car window with a grin and waved to them.

Actually, the Feng family shouldn't have come to this kind of challenge, since the World Society is a local force. The Feng siblings standing with the Sanyi Sect is tantamount to slapping the face of the local forces.

However, Feng Zhenghao was open-minded about this trade-off. He believed that one couldn't have everything in this world. In his opinion, befriending Lu Jin was much more worthwhile than maintaining local relationships. He shouldn't lose real benefits for the sake of appearances.

Feng Shayan's gaze fell on Li Chang'an: "Senior Brother Li, are you playing today?"

"I'm not playing; I just came to watch," Li Chang'an said.

Feng Shayan nodded and said nothing more, but the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. She was somewhat disappointed that she couldn't see Li Chang'an make a move.

Chapter 150 Seeking Advice

The group arrived at the National Martial Arts Hall, where they were greeted by the staff. Upon learning that Lu Lin was still the challenger and that Li Chang'an would not be participating, the staff visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, Lu Lin met her opponent, not the old man from yesterday, but a middle-aged man in his fifties surnamed Yao. Seeing that Lu Lin did not use a weapon, he did not use one either.

However, he practiced Iron Palm, and when he used his power, his palms turned as black as iron, with a faint black aura emanating from the edges.

Lu Lin unleashed the Reverse Regeneration Triple Technique, and her white hair instantly spread from the roots to the tips, her entire body enveloped in a misty white aura.

As the two clashed, the middle-aged man's palm strikes were incredibly heavy, each strike accompanied by a muffled thunderous sound. Lu Lin tried several times to break the deadlock, but her opponent remained steady and methodical, his iron palms like two impenetrable iron doors.

After exchanging dozens of blows, the middle-aged man's advantage continued to grow. Lu Lin was left wide open and unable to defend herself. Fortunately, she relied on the powerful recovery ability of the Reverse Life Triple Realm, otherwise she would have been defeated long ago.

Lu Linglong, Feng Shayan, and Feng Xingtong may not have seen the competition very clearly. They could only see that although Lu Lin was temporarily at a disadvantage, she was still able to hold her own.

But Li Chang'an could see very clearly that this middle-aged man was much stronger than Lu Lin. Observing the middle-aged man's unconscious movements and steps when he made his moves, he realized that this man's Iron Sand Palm was probably only a side practice, and he should usually practice double swords.

This shows that the opponent did not use their full strength, probably because they wanted to regain face from the previous round, since they were quite embarrassed yesterday.
