Martial Arts: Starting with Bajiquan, I will prove my divine power through the ultimate path!

A cool sensation touched the soles of his feet.

It was as if the water had found a way to flow out.

It slid in with a whoosh and crawled into Shi Wen's feet.

This startled Shi Wen.

You need to know the information on the JiYin page.

It is said that each month one can steal a very faint trace of earth energy to nourish the body.

But now I'm experiencing it firsthand.

He wondered if Jiyin had made a mistake.

What is meant by "a wisp of earth energy"?

"The chill that just crept into my feet felt like a giant snake forcefully burrowing in. Is that what you call a wisp of cold air?"

"Could the company have made some mistake?"

Shi Wen noticed that his feet were very cold.

It felt like being soaked in a pool of bone-chilling cold water.

Strangely, it didn't affect the circulation of blood throughout the body at all.

next moment.

A look of horror flashed across Shi Wen's eyes.

The surface of his feet resembled the ripples on a lake, like those of granite, created by the movement of pebbles.

The muscle groups in the feet are changing.

Click~

His feet were several times larger.

As the cool air surged, the muscles swelled, and the skin turned into dry, cracked stone, forming clearly visible granite textures!

Each muscle line was extremely exaggerated, and the instep even had rock-like protrusions.

The toenails also turned into a thick layer of keratin.

Tough and thick fascia has grown at every joint. When he steps on the ground, a cool sensation constantly washes over his feet!

His feet touched the cold ground.

The sensation that formed in his mind was not discomfort, but a feeling similar to stepping on a soft, cool waterbed.

The texture of granite.

It extends all the way up to the ankle.

That's when it stopped.

Shi Wen looked down.

He discovered that his feet had become several times thicker, covered with granite patterns, making them look exceptionally ferocious and terrifying!

"Holy crap, am I not human anymore?"

Shi Wen was startled by his own foot, and the black cat was also frightened and cowered in the corner, trembling!

He quickly got up.

I want to be able to sense changes in my body.

However, they found that their feet, which had turned into granite, did not feel heavy at all; in fact, they were much lighter than before.

Aside from its somewhat strange appearance...

There's nothing special about it.

Only.

In this state.

His consciousness will fall into a state of absolute calm.

Barefoot on the ground.

A cool breeze surged from the ground, coursing through the body and mingling with the hot air to form the fuel for tempering the flesh!

The blood in my body was surging more than ten times faster than before!

My senses were heightened several times over, my heartbeat was dozens of times stronger, and a cool sensation seemed to slither through my entire body like a snake.

Simultaneously.

It seems like he can manipulate the ground?

"move!"

Driven by Shi Wen's subconscious.

The ground beneath his feet rippled with a wave pattern within a half-meter radius of him, causing the ground to undulate and exhibiting negligible fluctuations of a few centimeters!

Even if it's just a tiny, insignificant change.

It's not even as destructive as a casual kick he makes.

The problem is that this is something that is thought.

He himself didn't move!

"Hiss... It can really move the earth?"

"I've only just begun to grasp the breathing technique. Once I've perfected it throughout my body, will I be able to control the ground to collapse, create earth spikes, transform the earth into armor, or even disappear into the earth itself?"

"If I were to obtain deeper levels of the fundamental laws, wouldn't I be able to trigger geological disasters like earthquakes and mudslides? How strong would my physical body have to be then? How large would my body be?"

"Forget it, let's not think about it anymore."

"Who knows how much special energy is needed to evolve those long-term things."

Shi Wen fell into silent contemplation.

As time goes by.

He realized it.

Being in this state inevitably leads to some negative effects on the body.

For example, the craving for food!

It seems there's also a tiny bit of a destructive urge.

My thoughts and ideas are still a bit stiff.

As the situation continues.

My physical strength is being depleted rapidly.

Hunger overwhelmed me, and I felt an urge to eat everything in the world!

"Let's test how long I can maintain this state, and what level of hardness my feet achieve in this state!"

Shi Wen squatted down.

Extend one finger.

A wisp of viscous blood energy surged into his fingertips and then pierced his foot.

The explosive, shattering aura of blood was actually blocked when it touched the feet.

They don't even have the right to leave a trace on it!

"Is it that hard?"

Shi Wen was somewhat surprised.

He gritted his teeth and poured a drop of blood energy into his fingertip.

The muscle lines on the fingertips were clearly visible as they made a hard contact with the instep.

To Shi Wen's shock, he used the blood energy from his own core.

This finger strike was enough to pierce through a Blood Clotting Warrior, but it could only leave a small dent on the instep!

"Burning True Intent, Activate!"

The stone temperature was tested again.

This time, the burning true meaning and the granite instep formed two opposing forces.

The two are like fire and water.

The scorching energy and the icy energy clashed, and neither could gain the upper hand over the other.

Until the burn was turned on at ten times the normal intensity.

The instep had just given in; the rock layer had melted, and the skin and flesh showed signs of being scalded by the high temperature.

After a series of tests.

Shi Wen sat wearily on the ground.

He grabbed a bag of bird meat and stuffed it haphazardly into his mouth, his face beaming with excitement.

"Strong! While this state's destructive power can't compare to the multiplied Burning True Intent, its advantage lies in its long duration, providing a small boost to all aspects of the body. Furthermore, as long as one's feet are on the ground, one receives a continuous boost of coolness!"

"And... it seems like as long as I can keep my stomach from getting hungry, I can stay in this state indefinitely?"

"If I activate this state along with the Burning True Intent, how much will my strength be amplified?"

"When my entire body is covered in rocks in the future, how hard will my flesh be?"

"It's absolutely terrifying!"

Shi Wen casually placed a small piece of bird meat in front of the black cat, thinking to himself, "Since this state is related to the earth, let's call it 'Earth Pattern'!"

"Luckily, it can be folded up whenever I want, otherwise I really wouldn't know how to go out tomorrow."

[Friendly reminder~]

[The Incomplete Breathing Method of the Gen Vein: Finding and absorbing special soil, rocks, or metals may yield unexpected benefits.]

"?" Shi Wen exclaimed in astonishment, "It can be strengthened?"

"I just don't understand what the 'special' aspect of the Extreme Seal means?"

"I'll ask the senior students in the inner courtyard of the boxing academy again tomorrow to see if anyone knows anything about this."

Shi Wen tore off a small piece of the bird meat and fed it to the black cat.

The black cat ate until its belly was round and full.

Only when he could no longer eat anything did he jump out of the window and disappear into the alley.

Shi Wen sat on the bed.

After a moment of blank staring, I got up and started tidying up my things.

Although not much time has passed tonight.

But after all that "ordeal," his injured body was basically healed.

Not only am I not sleepy, but I'm full of energy.

The following days.

He plans to first master martial arts techniques such as Iron Whip Kick and Iron Claw Kung Fu.

Then he finished practicing Taibao Henglian and Bajiquan.

After that, he focused on mastering the "Black Crow Fire Gang Subduing Demon True Strength Technique".

He doesn't have that much time right now to work on other martial arts techniques.

"Strange, didn't that guy say he had three different sources to exchange for a chance to live? How come there's nothing left except this eyeball?"

"Is this thing actually an anomaly?"

"This person is extremely cunning. I don't know if he's lying to me, or if the other two sources of energy were swallowed by the eyeball?"

"I should inquire more about this kind of thing in the future."

Shi Wen examined Ning Da's bag and was quite disappointed.

There was nothing else besides that eyeball.

"By the way, I wonder if I've used up all the special energy after evolving the breathing technique?"

"If we haven't used it all, can we add some more?"

Shi Wen stopped tidying up.

He looked down at the seal.

Suddenly, I was stunned.

His eyes gleamed with a sharp light.

The Extreme Seal... it really could be improved!!!

After a while.

A metal token appeared in Shi Wen's hand.

It is carved with a lifelike head of an evil goat.
