171: Martial God

Chapter 170 Martial God

One day.

A Martial Artist appeared in the Spirit Pool to teach them martial arts.

According to Wang Momo, cultivation and martial arts could be practiced simultaneously.

Complementing each other, they could make the body's flesh full and the spirit perfect.

However, Zheng Yi knew that this Martial Artist teaching them martial arts was merely to make their flesh more tender and chewy!

It was just like massaging, playing the piano for, and feeding red wine to pigs, cattle, and sheep.

"In my first life, I was passionate about the Dao and constantly cultivated the Spirit Eating Art in seclusion. In the end, I didn't have any spell techniques, and my entire mana only served to nourish my flesh without any ability to kill enemies."

"It was just like a fat pig fed for four or five hundred catties, completely devoid of any ability to resist."

"In my second life, in order to leave the Spirit Pool early, I chose premature aging. For ten years, I was constantly ill and completely unable to practice martial arts!"

"In the subsequent lifetimes, it was all for searching and contacting that infant jujube, and I was not infatuated with cultivation and martial arts."

"In this lifetime, to kill Bai Linger and Bai Miao'er, cultivation is useless, so I can only focus wholeheartedly on martial arts!"

Thinking of this, Zheng Yi became even more attentive on the drill ground.

A man was demonstrating martial arts on the high platform of the drill ground.

His movements were vigorous and agile, like a fierce tiger pouncing on a sheep, an eagle striking the vast sky, or a crane standing among chickens, sharp and swift.

Every move and style could carry the sound of wind, piercing through the sky, and the ears were filled with harsh whistling sounds.

The few children standing at the very front even had somewhat hurried breathing because of this person's fist wind.

After the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, the man stopped his movements, let out a long sigh, and said, "My name is Hong Zheng, and I am the Martial Master of Class Yi No. 7 Spirit Pool."

"Starting from today, I shall teach all of you martial arts!"

Hong Zheng's voice was not loud, but it could clearly echo in every child's ear.

"The martial arts I teach are named: Five Animals Body Refining Fist!"

"The five animals are respectively: Tiger, Deer, Bear, Ape, and Crane!"

"As for the Tiger Fist, the four limbs are away from the ground, throwing forward three times and throwing backward twice, stretching the waist long, turning the feet sideways and facing the sky, then returning to walk away, going forward and backward seven times each!"

While speaking, Hong Zheng began to teach.

Hundreds of children also began to practice in a decent manner.

As for Zheng Yi, he imprinted every movement and every secret of Hong Zheng into his mind.

Five Animals Body Refining Fist?

It was somewhat similar to the Five Spirits Body Tempering Technique I cultivated in the Great Yu world, but there were some differences.

"As for the Deer Fist, the four limbs are away from the ground, drawing the neck to look back, three times on the left and twice on the right, stretching the feet left and right, stretching and contracting also three and two times."

"As for the Bear Fist, lie flat facing up and hug the knees below with both hands, raise the head, strike the ground seven times on the left and seven times on the right, squat on the ground, and support the ground with both hands left and right."

"As for the Ape Fist, climb objects and hang oneself, stretch and contract the body, up and down once or seven times, use feet to hook objects and hang oneself, left and right seven times, hook hands and stand backward, press the head seven times each."

"As for the Bird Play, stand with both hands, raise one foot, stretch both arms, raise eyebrows and muster strength, two sevens each, sit and stretch legs, hands pulling foot distances seven each, retract and stretch both arms seven each..."

That night.

Wang Momo prepared a medicinal bath for every child.

The medicinal bath complemented martial arts cultivation.

It had the effects of stimulating acupuncture points, dredging tendons and bones, and enhancing Qi and blood.

If one only practiced martial arts, over time, the body's joints and acupuncture points would inevitably develop hidden injuries.

When young, it might have no effect at all, but as one grew old and Qi declined, the lingering disaster would be endless!

Literature makes one poor, martial arts make one rich!

Ordinary families simply could not support a Martial Artist's cultivation.

However, in the Spirit Pool, martial arts cultivation resources were truly a drop in the ocean!

Four years old.

Zheng Yi cultivated the Spirit Eating Art, and his cultivation broke through to the fifth layer!

This speed of cultivation was entirely the result of him squeezing his own potential and reducing his lifespan.

Not only cultivation, but even his martial arts cultivation speed was extremely fast; he had completely mastered the Five Animals Body Refining Fist.

In the Body Refining Realm of martial arts, he had already stepped into the first layer.

Skin Refining!

"Being an official has nine ranks and eighteen levels!"

"A first-rank prime minister, a ninth-rank inspector."

"And martial arts cultivation also has three Realms and twelve layers!"

"Body Refining Realm: Skin Refining, Flesh Refining, Tendon Refining, Bone Refining, Organ Refining, Marrow Refining, and Blood Changing!"

"Qi Refining Realm: Qi Condensation, Grandmaster, Innate, and Spirit Communication!"

"The Spirit Refining Realm has only one layer, named: Martial God!"

"Skin Refining: the skin and membranes are sturdy, and the anti-strike capability greatly increases. It is the first layer of martial arts!"

"Flesh Refining: the muscles are firm and full, and reactions are quick. Various high-difficulty movements can be achieved!"

"Tendon Refining: the fascias stretch and contract strongly, the explosive power is fierce, and the body is agile."

"Bone Refining: the bones are hard, the penetrating power is powerful, it is more agile, and the anti-strike capability is stronger. The whole body has copper skin and iron bones, as hard as steel!"

"Organ Refining: making internal organs strong through breathing and exhaling, breathing is continuous and deep, physical strength is long-lasting, and only after Major Achievement can spirit and flesh merge into one, greatly increasing endurance!"

Above the high platform, Hong Zheng shouted loudly.

Following his loud shout, hundreds of children under the platform all began to practice martial arts.

With shouts one after another, the surrounding aura rolled, and dust filled the sky.

Hundreds of children, like fierce tigers, bears, apes, or immortal cranes, tossed and shifted horizontally, fluttering up and down in the open space.

Every child's eyes were sharp and their essence and energy were exuberant.

Looking at these children, a trace of desolation unexpectedly appeared in Hong Zheng's eyes.

"Sigh..."

"How wonderful it would be if our Human Race could have had so many good seedlings a hundred years ago. If not for this, I..."

Hong Zheng sighed inwardly, which was happened to be discovered by Zheng Yi in the crowd!

"Master Hong Zheng, this Disciple has a question!"

Zheng Yi suddenly walked out of the crowd and came before Hong Zheng.

Hong Zheng's expression relaxed, and he said, "Zheng Yi, what question do you have?"

He had been teaching martial arts in the Class Yi Spirit Pool for more than ten years, and the youth... child before him was the most astonishing and brilliant person!

At only four years old, he had completely mastered the Five Animals Body Refining Fist and thoroughly integrated it.

Furthermore, his Physique, Aptitude, and talent were astonishing, truly worthy of being called a Prodigy!

When he first learned that the youth about 1.3 meters tall in front of him was only a four-year-old child, he was completely dumbfounded.

Is this fucking four years old?!

"Master Hong, I wonder what Realm your strength is at?"

Hong Zheng smiled and said, "I have practiced martial arts for more than forty years, and now I have barely stepped into the Qi Condensation layer of the Qi Refining Realm, condensing my own aura!"

"The Qi Condensation layer, huh..."

Zheng Yi muttered, "Master Hong, I wonder what abilities the Qi Condensation layer has?"

"For Qi Condensation, one condenses True Qi from their own flesh, bones, and internal organs, running through the entire body. From then on, physical strength and Qi are inexhaustible, and one can take the head of a top general amidst tens of thousands of troops!"

Hong Zheng said confidently, "One can also tear apart tigers and leopards, lift tripods with sheer strength, sprint a thousand miles in a single day, and smash a thousand-jin stone lock with a single punch! Even being torn apart by five horses cannot harm me in the slightest!"

"After the True Qi of the whole body is condensed and fills the entire body, one steps into the Grandmaster Realm!"

"In the Grandmaster Realm, the True Qi of the whole body transforms from Acquired to Innate, allowing one to communicate with Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and produce all kinds of supernatural abilities."

"After reaching Perfection in the Grandmaster Realm, when the Innate Qi is full, one can step into the Innate Realm!"

Hong Zheng did not explain what came after Innate, such as Spirit Communication and the Martial God Realm, but it still filled Zheng Yi with yearning.

Compared to the Grandmaster Realm and Innate Realm of the Great Yu world, the Martial Artists of this world were even stronger!

Perhaps it was related to the abundant Spiritual Qi in the Spirit Pool World.

Furthermore, Martial Artists in the Spirit Pool World could even break through the Innate Realm and reach the Realms of Spirit Communication and Martial God!

They actually had two more Realms than the Martial Artists of the Great Yu world!

"Dare I ask Master Hong, what is the difference between the Body Refining Realm and the Qi Refining Realm?"

Hong Zheng said, "The Body Refining Realm tempers oneself, making the body have copper skin and iron bones, full flesh and blood, internal organs filled with Qi, and prosperous blood and marrow! With a casual punch, it also has the power of a thousand jin."

"As for the Qi Refining Realm, it is to condense True Qi, transforming from Acquired to Innate, thereby producing all kinds of mighty powers!"

Zheng Yi asked again, "Master Hong, can one detect which layer of the Body Refining Realm a certain Martial Artist is at through the naked eye?"

"Of course not." Hong Zheng frowned and said, "Body Refining Realm Martial Artists have no aura; only through actual combat can one know the opponent's martial arts cultivation."

"Perhaps only Martial Artists of the Spirit Communication Realm or the Martial God Realm can achieve this purpose through various awakened mighty powers."

"Zheng Yi, why do you ask about this..."

He said in a low voice, "Dare I ask Master Hong, I have completely mastered the Five Animals Body Refining Fist, and my Body Refining Realm has also stepped into Skin Refining. Can you teach me a new method!"

"This..."

Looking at Zheng Yi's burning gaze, Hong Zheng hesitated and said, "For this matter, I need to report to the Spirit Pool supervisor. Tomorrow I will give you an answer."

"Thank you, Master Hong!"

Practicing martial arts in the Spirit Pool only had the Five Animals Body Refining Fist!

Cultivating this fist technique to its peak only reached the first layer of Skin Refining.

But for ordinary demons, Skin Refining was already enough!

"Master Hong, huh..."

Hong Zheng watched Zheng Yi leave and muttered to himself.

"Could this person have discovered something?"

"I originally wanted to end my remaining life here, but I didn't expect to encounter such a Qilin child..."

The next day.

Hong Zheng found Zheng Yi.

"Today I can teach you another martial arts Cultivation Technique, named the Great Strength Bull Demon Fist!"

"This fist technique can refine flesh and also refine tendons. I will only teach it once, and whether you can learn it depends entirely on your own talent!"

"Thank you, Master Hong!"

"You memorize the incantation silently first!"

"Thank you, Master Hong!"

Hong Zheng began to chant the incantation, and Zheng Yi immediately memorized it attentively in his heart, consisting of hundreds of flowing words.

After a few breaths, his expression suddenly changed.

The incantation chanted in Hong Zheng's mouth, when transmitted to his ear, actually had two completely different voices appearing.

One was high-pitched and clear, while the other was obscure and blurry.

Sound Transmission into Secret!

But relying on his talent, he could remember both clearly.

This is...

Tiger Demon Bone Refining Fist!

The cultivation method for the fourth layer of the Body Refining Realm, Bone Refining!

After the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, Hong Zheng finished chanting the entire incantation and stared fixedly at Zheng Yi.

Zheng Yi nodded and said, "Thank you, Master Hong, I have memorized the Great Strength Bull Demon Fist completely!"

"Very good."

Hong Zheng smiled and said, "I will demonstrate the Great Strength Bull Demon Fist right now. How much you can remember depends on your affinity!"

"Yes! Master Hong!"

Soon, Hong Zheng's figure began to move.

Like a savage bull lowering its horns, and like a fierce ox turning a millstone, as he executed it, his whole body's aura surged, causing his divine light to shine brilliantly.

"In addition to passing down the Great Strength Bull Demon Fist, Master Hong has also secretly taught me the Tiger Demon Bone Refining Fist."

"It seems that this is already the limit he can achieve!"

Zheng Yi thought to himself, "Every time he enters and exits the Spirit Pool to teach martial arts Cultivation Techniques, there are definitely demons monitoring him in secret."

"Being able to do this under the monitoring of demons, this is also an opportunity for me!"

Zheng Yi's eyes flashed as he stared closely.

Sure enough!

When Hong Zheng was teaching, a few movements occasionally were very uncoordinated with the preceding and following movements, and the speed was very fast.

If Zheng Yi hadn't been standing very close and had extremely high talent, he really wouldn't have been able to discover it.

"Mixing the Tiger Demon Bone Refining Fist and the Great Strength Bull Demon Fist together to teach? I understand!"

A quarter of an hour later, Hong Zheng finished his routine and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Master Hong!"

Five years old.

Zheng Yi cultivated the Spirit Eating Art, and it was still at the fifth layer, without the slightest progress.

However, his martial arts cultivation had already cultivated the Great Strength Bull Demon Fist to Perfection, stepping into the third layer of the Body Refining Realm: Tendon Refining!

Six years old.

Zheng Yi cultivated the Spirit Eating Art and successfully stepped into the sixth layer!

In secret.

The Tiger Demon Bone Refining Fist reached Perfection, with copper skin and iron bones all over his body, capable of withstanding heavy blows from the immense strength of a thousand troops.

His martial arts cultivation stepped into the fourth layer of the Body Refining Realm: Bone Refining!

Eight years old.

Zheng Yi cultivated the Spirit Eating Art and successfully stepped into the seventh layer!

His martial arts cultivation was even more thoroughly integrated, a flawless body, complete form and spirit, and long-lasting breath.

His figure was sturdy, his height reached about 1.7 meters, and standing in the crowd he was like a savage bull.

Nine years old.

Zheng Yi cultivated the Spirit Eating Art and successfully stepped into the eighth layer!

Having entered the Illusory True World so many times, his cultivation finally broke through the seventh layer of Qi Refining.

All reasons were entirely related to the destiny called the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss!

Squeezing his vitality, thereby greatly enhancing his own talent, foundation, and Comprehension Ability!

Because of this matter, the Class Yi No. 7 Spirit Pool held a celebration banquet for Zheng Yi once again.

Moreover, the matter of his Breakthrough to the eighth layer of Qi Refining also spread out, arousing the competition of more than a dozen powerful members of the Yao Race.

Zheng Yi was unaware of these matters.

Right now, he was simply infatuated with martial arts!

During a martial arts practice, after demonstrating and exchanging blows with Zheng Yi, Hong Zheng said he needed to relieve himself and left the drill ground.

After thinking carefully, Zheng Yi followed closely behind.

In the latrine, he found that hidden among the toilet paper was actually a piece of paper covered with dense, tiny words, which had been crumpled up and thrown into the latrine pit!
