Body Refinement for Longevity: From Health Cultivation Exercises to Overcoming All Techniques

The next day.

Chen Han's punches generated a gust of wind, striking the trees with dull, rain-like sounds. His fists flashed, and in the blink of an eye, he unleashed several punches.

Chen Han's eyes were sharp, his whole body tensed, and each punch he threw was heavier than the last.

He knocked the bark off the tree, and the squeaking sound was incessant, as if the huge tree, which one person could not encircle, would break apart and fall down in the next moment.

[Mountain-Breaking Fist +1]

Heaven rewards diligence; success is inevitable!

Name: Chen Han

Lifespan: 20/132

【Skill: Mountain-Breaking Fist (Mastery) 496/500】

"Not enough, almost there, just a little bit more..."

Chen Han's punches were powerful and heavy, each punch creating a small gust of wind, making it breathtaking and difficult to look directly at.

After an unknown amount of time, [Mountain-Breaking Fist +1] was obtained.

Chen Han threw punches again and again, his bare upper body muscular and perfectly toned. Sweat poured down his face like raindrops.

He did not seem to have weakened in the slightest due to his long practice of boxing. On the contrary, he felt a warm current rising up in his body and flowing into his limbs and bones.

With each punch, he seemed to grasp something mysterious and elusive.

It was something that naturally arose from the fist, invisible and intangible, yet Chen Han could clearly feel it, as if he had suddenly comprehended a fist technique he had never encountered before.

It possesses a spiritual essence, which naturally flows out in every move and flourishes in the fist.

However, there was a vague feeling that Chen Han was still pondering, trying to firmly grasp it and remember it in his mind as he kept throwing punches.

He knew that this was the ultimate meaning.

One punch after another, seemingly identical to the previous one, but only he could sense that it was different.

[Mountain-Breaking Fist +1]

[Broken Mountain Fist (Dacheng) 1/1000]

At a certain moment, Chen Han finally understood. He finally fully comprehended this supreme realm, and his understanding of the Mountain-Breaking Fist penetrated to his very bones. Every move he made was effortless yet powerful.

From this moment on, he had completely mastered the essence of this martial art.

The next moment, a sharp light flashed in Chen Han's eyes, and his blood and qi surged even higher. He raised his fist, and all the muscles in his body coordinated with it. One move affects the whole body. Bang!

With a powerful punch, the poor tree snapped and crashed to the ground with a loud crack.

This punch had the force of over ten thousand pounds!

From this moment on, Chen Han became a renowned martial artist, a true master of his craft.

He was already a true master in the city, a high-ranking official, second only to the emperor, and had everything he wanted. There were countless people who wanted to curry favor with him. Even when Master Li was still alive, he could order people around with a single word.

He could also firmly hold the position of elder in the Chen family, wielding immense power. He had three wives and four concubines, five sons and six grandsons, and could command the wind and rain. No one could order him around anymore, and even major clan affairs had to be approved by him before they could be implemented.

He could influence the situation anywhere in this secular world.

With the addition of the terrifying and heaven-defying steel-like body level of Tai Chi health cultivation, his combat power is far beyond the early stage of martial artist.

Before him stood six ferocious tigers, the dominant beasts of the region. He was fully capable of fighting them, and even had absolute confidence in beating them to a pulp.

"Too strong, but not strong enough..."

Tai Chi Health Preservation Exercise (Proficient) 485/500

With his steel-like body and the ability to lift mountains and tripods, he has almost completed his cultivation. At that time, his combat power will experience another terrifying surge.

A faint smile appeared on Chen Han's lips, and a sense of pride welled up in his heart.

This is understandable. He had already reached the level of a martial artist at the young age of twenty. He might not be considered exceptional elsewhere, but in the now-destroyed Black Lion City, he was the most talented genius in thousands of years.

"No, 'genius' is too low-class. It should be 'Black Lion City's Number One Martial Arts Prodigy'!"

"Now we need to consider the ultimate intent. The ultimate intent is an indispensable thing for martial artists. Otherwise, we can only try to find the ultimate intent out of thin air, or even create our own ultimate intent."

"The latter is too difficult and too unpredictable. Even though I have the skill boost, whether this matter can be accomplished is still uncertain. The most likely outcome is that the progress will be extremely slow."

"If possible, it would be best to have the intention to practice Tai Chi. If not, we can discuss it later. For now, let's focus our energy on Tai Chi health exercises."

The steel-like body level of Tai Chi health cultivation is about to be perfected. Moreover, he has already been delayed for a long time. He should go to Eagle Mountain as soon as possible to see what is going on.

There is a very high probability that the next volume of Tai Chi health preservation exercises is waiting for him.

Five days later, Chen Han lay on the ground, carefully observing the broken-life butterflies in the makeshift hatchery in front of him.

Today, a small portion of them have grown to the size of a little finger and have begun to spin cocoons.

The rest were still busy eating, the tender grass quickly consumed in their mouths, and Chen Han often had to feed them four or five times a day.

These little guys are quite intelligent. Sometimes, when Chen Han is in the mood, he will stretch out his little finger and gently tease them. Some of them ignore Chen Han and keep talking, while others will roll over and look like they are enjoying themselves.

Five days passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, at Eagle Falcon Mountain...

Deep in the mountain stream, a man sat listlessly on a boulder. He was dressed in a white robe and had an ordinary appearance, but his every move exuded the air of a noble young master.

His name is Lu Tianren, and he is a 'cultivator'! In other words, a cultivator in the eyes of ordinary people...

Lu Tianren looked at the servants in front of him, especially the middle-aged man in the middle who was rolling on the ground in pain, with a blank expression.

Before Lu Tianren stood four men, all of whom were martial arts masters. In the secular world, they were peerless experts with immense power, whose decisions could determine the life and death of hundreds of people.

But now, they are treated like servants in his presence.

Without exception, they all wanted to learn about cultivation, but no one could guide them into the field. Even if they were guided, they couldn't survive or thrive.

Left with no other choice, they became servants of cultivators. This way, at least they could gain a foothold in the cultivation world and avoid being killed at will by others who didn't like them.

"Aren't you supposed to be experts? How come you've managed to turn out like this even with your lousy cultivation techniques?"

Lu Tianren spoke calmly, completely ignoring the martial arts servant who was trembling violently, roaring loudly, and looking as if he was about to die with a ferocious expression.

"Reporting to the Immortal Master."

At this moment, a slightly overweight man lowered his head, cupped his hands, stepped forward, and responded respectfully, "This technique is far too domineering, especially the final steel-boned body level."

"As you know, this level of immortal master is one who consumes the flesh of a strange beast that has been around for a hundred years to fill their body with extremely rich blood and qi, and then uses this Tai Chi technique to resolve and nourish their physical body."

"But the Tai Chi in this Tai Chi Gong is too mysterious. If you make a slight mistake when dissolving Qi and blood, it will cause the Qi and blood in your body to run wild, resulting in damage to your tendons and meridians. Your body will be burned by that Qi and blood, making it very difficult to make any progress."
