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

One by one, black and red butterflies appeared out of nowhere, accompanied by wisps of blood-red mist that soon spread outwards.

Black and red butterflies fluttered slowly within, creating an eerie and dangerous scene against the backdrop of the strange smog.

The ferocious and savage beasts were initially puzzled, but as they were enveloped, they fell one after another, letting out mournful screams. Only then did the large group of beasts sense the danger.

They tried to leave, but it was too late. These eerie butterflies, accompanied by wisps of blood-red mist, had already surrounded them and were now slowly shrinking, intending to strangle them all.

Upon seeing this, the man surnamed Chen recognized that the smog was somewhat similar to the blood miasma he had seen before. He was terrified and his face turned pale with fright.

He also wanted to get away from this place, but unfortunately, he was surrounded.

Moreover, these eerie butterflies seemed to be sentient, giving him special treatment, covering him from all sides, even above his head, forming an inverted barrier. To break through, one had to pass through a blood miasma that was over ten feet long.

This distance was enough for him to come into full contact with the blood miasma, and ultimately die a gruesome death on the spot, just like these strange beasts!

"Damn it, I should have followed the Immortal Master. Honestly, I shouldn't have tried to be clever."

It turned out that after discovering the hidden cave in the lake, he secretly left alone for fear of disturbing the monster. He then wandered around the cave for many days until he encountered these terrifyingly numerous and irreconcilable beasts two days ago.

After fleeing for a while, they arrived at this place.

hoo hoo hoo!

By this time, the blood miasma had mercilessly covered the entire horde of strange beasts. Large numbers of beasts collapsed to the ground, convulsing and emitting heart-wrenching screams that were enough to make anyone shudder.

Just as the man surnamed Chen was filled with despair, he saw someone. It was a familiar figure. Although he couldn't see it very clearly through the blood miasma, he recognized him. It was Chen Yan, the boy who had been protected by the immortal master and escaped first.

"Yeah, I was wondering why these butterflies looked so familiar. Aren't they the ones this kid keeps?"

He had seen Chen Han release these strange butterflies to protect himself before. Today, although they were no longer green, as long as they were his, he didn't care about anything else.

"No, this thing is actually an incredibly valuable item. After this matter is over..."

The man surnamed Chen's initially despairing gaze changed after seeing Chen Han, his mind racing. Looking at the powerful butterflies, his eyes almost lit up, and he had already planned how to kill and plunder the treasure once this matter was over.

Chen Han walked straight toward the man surnamed Chen. The butterflies in the blood miasma automatically made way for him and even deliberately flapped their wings to clear a path for him as well.

This bizarre scene secretly alarmed the man surnamed Chen. 'This method seems to involve Gu worms from the Miao people of Southern Xinjiang. How is that possible? In their country, Gu masters are incredibly rare; you probably couldn't find even one in a whole city. And Gu worms are even rarer, especially these powerful ones.'

"But Chen Han, how could he possibly know the methods of a Gu Master? Moreover, this kind of Gu worm is something I've never seen or heard of before..."

The man surnamed Chen was, after all, a martial arts master who had roamed the martial arts world with great strength and extensive knowledge. He had naturally heard of the Gu worms from afar, but what surprised him was that the Gu worms could be so powerful and have such abilities. This really broadened his horizons.

Chen Han walked straight up to the man surnamed Chen. Dozens of meters away, he crossed his arms, his gaze calm yet pleased, showing no trace of his previous humble demeanor.

"Senior, my hands are itching to try my hand at your fist techniques, what do you say?"

Chen Han spoke up without any hesitation.

Ok?

Upon hearing this, the man surnamed Chen's face immediately darkened.

"What does this kid mean? Does he want to kill me? No, if he wanted to kill me, he could just control these butterflies. Why is he fighting me in close combat? Does he have a death wish?"

In his view, if Chen Han wanted to, he could easily kill him on the spot by controlling these Gu worms, but close combat would be tantamount to courting death.

He is a Martial Master, and he has been trying to break through to the Martial Master realm for seven or eight years. He truly possesses the combat power of a Martial Master.

This Chen Yan looks like a martial artist who has only recently entered the realm of cultivation. He is only slightly stronger than one of the strange beasts that he just killed. How could he possibly fight me? Wouldn't that be courting death?

The man surnamed Chen was puzzled and asked, "Brother Chen Yan, what's the meaning of this? I, Chen, have always acted with integrity and have never offended you. I even gave you food. Are you going to repay kindness with enmity?"

Chen Han gave a cold laugh. This kind of thing might fool others, but fooling him? That's a bit too much of a stretch.

His previous act of being naive, ignorant of danger, and easily fooled was just an act. Now that he has the upper hand, why would he pretend to be stupid anymore?

"Senior, are you deaf? I said... I want to fight you!"

Chen Han completely ignored the man surnamed Chen's roundabout way of speaking.

He had seen many people like this in his previous life. They were not much different from some unscrupulous bosses. When things didn't happen to them, they were arrogant and sarcastic. But once things got out of hand, they would talk nicely and try to argue with them indirectly.

In his previous life, in a peaceful society, he would still regress, but in this life...

However, his reason for wanting to fight this person was simple: to comprehend the ultimate meaning.

Indeed, Chen Han had already discerned from this person's every move that he was using the Chen family's exclusive martial art—the Mountain-Breaking Fist.

And this person's surname is Chen...

Thus, the person's identity was revealed.

He... was the only martial arts master to have reached the final stage in the Chen family of Black Lion City, and also the previous patriarch of the family—Chen Canghai!

The progress of mastering the ultimate skill on one's own through proficiency is too slow. Chen Han simply cannot wait for it, nor does he want to. This is why he did not use the Life-Severing Butterfly to directly eliminate it.

He wanted to fight Chen Canghai and comprehend the ultimate meaning in the battle!

Every person who reaches the level of a martial arts master has honed their martial arts to the pinnacle and has thoroughly grasped the essence of the art, to the point that they are just short of having a face-to-face conversation with the founder.

Therefore, Chen Han doesn't need to worry about Chen Canghai's lack of depth in comprehending the ultimate meaning.

As for the charges and infamy of challenging family elders without authorization and attempting to murder or poison them, these are heinous crimes...

Would Chen Han care?

If he hadn't been too weak back then, he would have easily killed Chen Qiuyu, who had once humiliated him. As for his clansmen who were surrounded and killed by the Black Mountain Gang... he didn't even blink when he left.

Today, facing the previous patriarch who once wanted his life, how could he possibly hesitate for even a moment?

Call him cold-blooded or ruthless, that's just who he is...

Before Chen Canghai could say anything more, Chen Han took a step forward, like a cannonball, and charged towards him with astonishing force!
