115: Alien technology, a hundred-meter giant bird

All things are interdependent and mutually restrictive; where there is Yin, there is Yang.

This applies to heaven and earth, to living beings, and to strength.

Yang strength is rigid; a punch can cause mountains to crumble and earth to crack, incredibly explosive.

Yin strength is soft; a punch feels like a gentle breeze, yet hides a needle within its cotton.

When Yin and Yang combine, hardness and softness merge, allowing for a perfectly seamless and powerful full-force strike without self-injury.

This is the first characteristic of "Hun Yuan Strength": Yin and Yang Combination.

In simple terms, it's a do-or-die Move, concentrating all internal strength into a single point and unleashing it in an instant.

A punch means either life or death.

It's even more formidable than sharing the lifespan of heaven and earth.

Li Gui saw Yang Dian's stance, and after stepping on the subtly twitching Lizardmen tail, he twitched his mouth: "Yin and Yang Combination it is."

"Why are you striking a Wing Chun stance?"

"What, do you think you're Ip Man, trying to fight ten?"

As he spoke, he moved closer to Yang Dian, bent down, and put his head near Yang Dian's, revealing a simple smile:

"How do you perform this Yin and Yang Combination? Teach this uncle, will you? Uncle won't learn for free, uncle will pay tuition!"

As soon as Li Gui spoke, the others couldn't stand still either.

Martial Artists capable of district-level combat at this stage are mostly dedicated to martial arts, and under the organization's guidance, they have gradually abandoned the sectarian views of past eras, becoming more willing to communicate.

So, as long as they were on the same side, recognized, and got along, they could quickly become close.

This is how Yang Dian integrated into this circle.

Just a few hours ago, he hadn't met Li Gui, Liu Han, or the other ancient Martial Artists present.

But upon meeting and being recognized, when he asked about martial arts-related doubts, they all taught him everything they knew.

Now that they wanted to learn, Yang Dian naturally wouldn't hold anything back.

"'Yin and Yang Combination' is a Move I comprehended from Hun Yuan Strength."

"Everyone knows about Yin Strength, Yang Strength, Hard Strength, Soft Strength, Obvious Strength, and Hidden Strength, so I won't elaborate."

"In short, the reason ordinary Martial Artists cannot condense all their body's strength for a single strike is because the action of force is mutual."

"When you condense strength within your body, your body will also be affected by the recoil of that strength."

"Even if you manage to deliver a punch gathering all your body's strength, the action of force is still mutual."

"If all your strength is unleashed, what will protect you from the recoil?"

"Over-limit bursting of all body strength is equivalent to the Heavenly Demon Disintegration or sharing the lifespan of heaven and earth, basically a death sentence."

"Even if one doesn't die, the body would be severely injured."

"But Yin and Yang Combination is different."

"Yin and Yang merge, hardness and softness intertwine; when strength gathers in the body, it becomes a unified Hun Yuan, causing no harm to the body."

"After it's unleashed, the recoil of the strength is dissolved by the soft strength within the punch, even using a small force to deflect a great one, sending the recoiling strength back, embedding it as Hidden Strength to erupt within the enemy's body."

"Just like before, after I sent the Eight-Armed Lizardman flying, it took several seconds for the Hidden Strength to erupt in his mouth, blowing it open."

"After performing Yin and Yang Combination, at most you'll be exhausted, but it won't cause any physical damage to your body."

"The method of channeling strength is roughly like this... then like this... and finally like this..."

Li Gui and the others tried it out briefly, then began to groan.

"Forget it, forget it. This method of channeling strength can't be learned in a short time, and forcing it is likely to cause injury."

"I'll study it more when I have time later."

Yang Dian felt it would be very difficult for them to fully grasp it.

After all, he was a cheat.

Others wanting to master Hun Yuan Strength through their own talent, making all their body's strength a unified Hun Yuan, with enough effort, it might still be achievable.

But without decades of hard work, wanting to comprehend Yin and Yang Combination from Hun Yuan Strength in a short time?

Either they are true Martial Dao Prodigies, or they are like him, using cheats.

Taking advantage of the post-battle lull, and after discussing some martial arts insights, Yang Dian approached the Lizardmen again.

Although the Lizardmen was severely beaten, with all his bones dislocated, blood was still oozing from his mouth.

But he was still conscious, and when he saw Yang Dian walk to his head, his fierce vertical pupils stared intently at Yang Dian, as if wanting to kill him with his gaze.

Yang Dian raised both hands and extended two index fingers towards his eyes.

What puzzled Yang Dian was that this big oaf didn't close his eyes; even when Yang Dian's fingers poked into his eyes, he still stared fixedly at Yang Dian.

"Holy crap."

Shaking his hand, recalling the wet sensation of his index finger touching the eyeball, Yang Dian felt a bit unwell.

"This thing is so damn fierce!"

Su Qinglian, who had approached Yang Dian, started to act abstractly again.

She controlled her shadow to extend fingers and poke the Lizardmen's shadow.

After the shadow fingers poked the Lizardmen's shadow, she spoke again:

"Why do you not evade?"

The Lizardmen's shadow swayed, and a low voice emerged:

"Because I am not afraid!"

"Why are you not afraid?"

"Not afraid, just not afraid!"

Yang Dian turned to look at Su Qinglian, who was amusing herself, and couldn't help but raise a hand to his forehead:

"Do you have to be so abstract?"

Before he finished speaking, Yang Dian's hand had already reached for the Lizardmen's crown.

The crown was very large.

The Lizardmen was five meters tall, and his head had a diameter of nearly 60 centimeters.

This meant the crown in his hand was larger than a typical foot basin.

Under the fierce gaze of the Lizardmen, Yang Dian removed the crown, first touching the goose-egg-sized, dark green jewel on it, which seemed to be a wonder.

Then he picked up the crown and held it up to his head to measure.

But as soon as he lightly placed the crown on his head, Yang Dian's eyes suddenly narrowed.

In the ethereal, a voice seemed to tell him what abilities the crown possessed and how to use them.

Seeing Yang Dian holding a crown, lightly placed on his head, motionless, a somewhat bored Su Qinglian extended a finger and poked the crown:

"What, are you going to cosplay as the Lizardmen King?"

"Hey, don't say it, you really can cosplay."

"If you bring out those Dragon scales and Dragon claws, and I paint them for you, they'll be perfectly Lizardmen claws!"

Yang Dian glanced at Su Qinglian and lightly placed the crown on her head.

Su Qinglian, who was still chattering, immediately froze, looking at Yang Dian with a bewildered expression.

"It... it seems to be talking to me."

Yang Dian nodded and took off the crown.

"Since you can hear it too, then it seems this should be 'Alien Planet Technology'."

"If we consider this crown a super weapon, then this super weapon comes with its own instruction manual."

"As long as someone wears it on their head, they automatically gain knowledge of how to use it."

At this point, Yang Dian looked again at the Eight-Armed Lizardman lying on the ground.

"Clearly, the Alien Planet is not in the Stone Age, as we speculated."

"They have developed a civilization vastly different from technological civilization."

No sooner had he spoken than two streaks of light rose from the pitch-black spatial node.

Compared to their graceful departure, the two now appeared somewhat disheveled.

Their clothes were tattered, not to mention Daoist Qingfeng's chest-length beard had been cut in half.

'Why are there only two people?'

'Where is Yue Shan, the Deputy Director of the Wuan General Bureau?'

As the thought arose, Yue Shan flew into the air, carrying a bird over a hundred meters long, its feathers emitting a colorful glow under the lights, its head somewhat resembling a Lizardmen's but much rounder than a sharp Lizardmen head, more like a dinosaur's head.

The moment the Eight-Armed Lizardman, whose major joints had all been dislocated, saw the bird, he began to squirm wildly like a maggot.

As he squirmed, he also let out a guttural "Hiss~" roar from his throat.
