Lu Ren raised his eyebrows, finally understanding why Zhao Jiyou ntioned hoping he could wait for him to showcase his martial arts before leaving.
Chen Hai’s eyes glinted with intensity, he spoke softly.
"Northern Hundred Saints Fist, Chen Hai."
Lu Ren nodded:
"Phoenix Falcon Fist, Lu Ren."
The so-called Hundred Saints Fist implies envisioning one among the hundred saints, combining this with fist technique to form a spiritual will, ultimately seizing the saintly status of the envisioned Immortal God, thereby strengthening oneself to the point of unblemished invincibility.
Those who can achieve Supre Enlightennt have at least successfully seized and refined the Taoism Fruit at the Extraordinary-to-Saint level.
Initially they worshipped the Venerable God day and night, eventually they attacked mountains and broke temples, replaced the high sight with low sches, stole the Taoism Fruit to refine themselves.
This is a purely fantastical approach to fist techniques, imagining a second spiritual persona, finally conquering its heart, rging the two into one, stepping into the Realm of Awakened.
It’s sowhat reminiscent of the Taoist Heart Demon Planting Technique.
The two exchanged glances, both reflecting on the information gleaned from each other’s eyes.
At their level, rely glancing can reveal so clues and provide ample information.
"This guy isn’t the real practitioner of Phoenix Falcon Fist. After Awakening, he took the path of Horizontal Refinent! No wonder he looks so fierce in the videos."
Chen Hai couldn’t help muttering in his heart.
Finally confirming that the opponent is soone pretending to be agile and swift, while actually pursuing the extrely powerful path of Horizontal Refinent.
The opponent’s Qi is almost overflowing, isn’t it!
"Exactly which Venerable God did the opponent worship to steal powers from?"
Lu Ren couldn’t help but wonder, needing to know that the higher the initial divine position of the Hundred Saints Fist, the harder it is to ta it ultimately.
Those able to achieve Supre Enlightennt are undoubtedly among the stronger.
Seems like the mid-path pursuit, resembling a pentagonal warrior.
Most Bright Awakening Martial Taoist Family, upon entering Awakening, will fill their shortcomings.
The host among the present Bright Awakening Martial Taoist Families had no intention to speak on stage, directly announcing the start of the competition.
The martial arts platform competition arranged in the center idle Lu Ren’s interest, sowhat dull, eventually he inquired Chen Hai who was not far away.
"Brother Chen, how many steps have you taken in Awakening?"
This seasoned Awakened, having cultivated in the Awakening for at least forty years, is definitely a pioneer.
Upon hearing, Chen Hai was startled, then understood Lu Ren’s aning, obviously the battle between these children urges no thrill from him.
At this level of theirs, no matter how skillful the fist technique below is displayed, it’s penetrated at first glance.
The outco is predetermined the mont both parties step on stage.
Chen Hai calmly said: "Fifth Step of Awakening, already touching the edge of the Sixth Step."
As for asking others about their realm progress, there truly is no taboo, after all, many tis true fighting power isn’t reflected by how many steps are taken in Awakening.
Though the Nine Steps of Bright Awakening are crucial for the next Path Determination, this involves exploration of spiritual will and understanding of the body, while one’s strength, physique, and ntal excavation remain personal.
In this realm, before the sixth step, it’s hard to say who is stronger, everything is known only after the fight.
Lu Ren pondered deeply, asking: "Have you reached the threshold? I heard Taoist Zhao ntioned that the Sixth Step of Awakening is a barrier, which is the second Limit Breaking of the body."
Chen Hai nodded slightly, seeing that Lu Ren is not as cold-hearted or ruthless as rumored, thus relaxing his tone a bit.
"Indeed, the first six steps of Awakening are just further distillation and strengthening of body and spiritual will, but to approach the seventh step is the second Limit Breaking."
He appeared slightly desolate: "I’ve been stuck in this realm for twenty years, lifeti locked here. After all, talents are insufficient."
Lu Ren did not offer any consolation; reaching this level ans none but strong-minded individuals.
"Brother Chen, have you seen the path to the Inner Realm?"
"Certainly."
"Did Taoist Zhao invite you to explore together?"
Upon hearing Lu Ren ntion this matter, Chen Hai involuntarily cursed.
"Who knows what that old undying wants, he asked every Awakened who ca to the Imperial Capital."
Lu Ren mused, guessing a bit of Zhao Jiyou’s situation.
"He might be approaching his final monts."
Chen Hai remained silent, sighed.
"People are subject to birth, aging, illness, and death, but walking on this Path of Cultivation, who wants to die halfway? If Elder Zhao still cannot explore the path in the Inner Realm, in the end he might only risk all, or shed the physical form, moving to the Spirit Realm instead."
Upon speaking this much, he couldn’t help but chuckle: "Don’t be fooled by that guy’s daily lantations, he’s actually already laid out plans in the Spirit Realm, if the physical body fully declines, at that ti the spirit ascends, entering the Spirit Realm, he would be an immortal progenitor amongst the undying."
At this point, Chen Hai also remarked: "There are those in the Spirit Realm who aren’t without chances to return either."
Lu Ren appeared contemplative, it seems like the Spirit Realm constructed by Qi Refiners through the ages is just waiting for the right opportunity.
Whether it would resemble the overlap of Spirit Realm and current world as in Kunlun.
Ultimately Immortal Gods erging?
The entire competition lasted a week, from morning till night, with fifty matches each day.
These martial arts family practitioners, if not evenly matched, rarely fight inconclusively, typically deciding victory within ten minutes.
Yet the dangerous fist techniques incited the audience’s fervor, emotions growing increasingly intense.
At the end, with higher martial artists competing, even referees were Grandmaster Level martial artists in the Great Perfection Realm of Fist Technique.
Close-range hand-to-hand combat, fiery fists and kicks.
Sharpness of cold weapons resulted in exclamations at the venue from spectators.
Unexpectedly, Li Qingling forcefully made it into the ranks of the country’s top hundred martial artists ranking eighth-fourth.
Precisely, she truly trained in martial arts for only about a year, half a year under his guidance, despite aiding in washing tendons and cutting marrow.
But her own determination and perseverance were indispensable.
"Ladies and gentlen, the first National Martial Arts Tournant is officially complete again, but to celebrate its first successful hosting, there will be three martial showcases! Two will be with Grandmaster Level martial artists in the Great Perfection Realm of Fist Technique.
The ultimate finale will be an exhibition match by two judges, Awakened in the Extraordinary-to-Saint Level, Phoenix Falcon Fist Lu Ren, and, Hundred Saints Fist Chen Hai.
May all viewers cultivate virtue through martial arts, establish will and determination!"
As soon as these words left, the crowd burst into a roar.
"I knew it, I knew it, my inside information was spot on!"
(Thanks to Shen Yin’s support, thanks for everyone’s continuous legitimate support, after this minor plot, a major plot will unfold, hope the Spirit Realm enjoys it, thank you all for your support!)
