Martial Arts Crossover: Infiltrating a Girls' Chat Group at the Start

"That means the eighth level of Jade Purity." Tian Buyi exclaimed again, knowing that it was not someone from the Chenxuan Realm, but someone from the lower realm, and a martial arts cultivator at that.

With such qualifications, she is no less capable than Lu Xueqi of Xiaozhu Peak.

Lu Xueqi's talent was recognized by the sect leaders as the best among the young disciples of Qingyun Sect, even surpassing Xiao Yicai's.

Lin Jingyu was even closer.

If Lu Xueqi weren't a woman, Shuiyue wouldn't have had a chance to take her as a disciple; Daoxuan would have snatched her up long ago.

As for Lin Zhu, Tian Buyi felt that in that realm, there would only be one Lin Zhu.

"It should be about the same," Lin Zhu replied.

Listening to Lin Zhu's story, Tian Buyi looked at Zhang Xiaofan again and found him much more pleasing to the eye.

Then he said, "I wonder if you could give some pointers to my worthless disciples?"

Before Lin Zhu could say anything, Du Bishu and the others started shouting and yelling.

The person in front of us is someone who can fight against Cangsong. Isn't Master letting someone bully his own disciple?

"What are you yelling for?" Tian Buyi glared angrily at his worthless disciples, his anger rising. "Young friend, you might not even agree."

He turned to Lin Zhu and asked, "What do you think, young friend? It's just my Da Ren and Lao Qi."

"That's no problem."

Lin Zhu nodded in agreement. "I will suppress my strength to the Grandmaster stage. What do you two think?"

"Then I'll go first, please forgive me, fellow Daoist."

Song Daren stepped forward, knowing that his master was acting in his best interest.

Lin Zhu nodded, "Please!"

Tian Buyi's spiritual energy surged forth, enveloping the courtyard to prevent the fluctuations of the fight from spreading outside and causing adverse effects.

Song Daren took out his spirit sword—Ten Tigers.

As the name suggests, it can condense sword energy into form and conjure ten tigers.

But he didn't do that from the beginning; instead, he tested the waters first.

This was a heavy sword, which Song Daren wielded to attack Lin Zhu, splitting Mount Hua in two.

The sword stirred the surrounding spiritual energy, emitting a tiger's roar, and a fierce tiger could be faintly seen pouncing towards Lin Zhu.

This technique is indeed good, but it lacks sword intent.

The reason why spiritual energy can take form is because of the trace of spirituality carried by the ten tigers.

But Lin Zhu didn't dodge. He saw the flaw in the attack at a glance, took a step back, and pointed with his right hand, directly using the Breaking Sword Style from the Dugu Nine Swords to strike the flaw.

The tiger-shaped sword energy was broken.

At this moment, Song Daren's new strength had not yet been generated and his old strength had been exhausted. With Lin Zhu's touch, he almost knocked the spirit sword in his hand away.

Lin Zhu said, "Fellow Daoist Song is kind-hearted; there's no need to hold back."

Song Daren shook his head and said, "I didn't hold back."

Tian Buyi was furious at their lack of courage and shouted, "Do you think the enemy will stand still and let you hit them?"

Song Daren suddenly realized, "Disciple understands. Thank you for your guidance, Fellow Daoist Lin. Thank you for your guidance, Master. Fellow Daoist Lin," he said solemnly, "be careful from now on."

Lin Zhu nodded in acknowledgment, "Please!"

Song Daren released the ten tigers and formed a mudra with his hands.

Lin Zhu shook his head inwardly. A gentle breeze rose beneath his feet, and he instantly appeared behind Song Daren, his back to him.

"This move is too slow. No, you're not in a good position to use it right now."

Song Daren paused in his hand seals, and the Ten Tigers plunged into the ground.

Tian Buyi was furious. "Stupid, really stupid, even stupider than Lao Qi."

Song Daren blushed and dared not refute.

Lin Zhu returned and said, "The Ten Tigers are heavy swords. As the saying goes, a heavy sword has no edge, and great skill is without artifice. Whether you hold the sword with your hand or control it with your spirit, you should not avoid the heavy and the light."

After saying that, he transformed his fist into a sword and demonstrated his swordsmanship in front of Song Daren.

They were all simple, unorthodox moves, improvised based on the characteristics Song Daren had displayed in his previous moves.

The so-called layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.

Tian Buyi saw it at a glance, as did Song Daren.

Lin Zhu's demonstration of each move exposed Song Daren's weaknesses, but he didn't teach Song Daren to imitate him; he merely inspired him.

Afterwards, Lin Zhu asked, "Fellow Daoist, did you understand?"

Song Daren looked at Tian Buyi cautiously.

Chapter 419 Song Daren's Fortuitous Encounter

Tian Buyi could tell from Song Daren's expression that he didn't understand.

Lin Zhu understood and said, "Then I'll do it again, and you watch carefully."

After saying that, he struck again, and in order for Song Daren to see it more clearly, he deliberately used the fierce tiger intent concentrated in the Tiger Roar Staff, and the sound of his fist cutting through the air made the sound of a tiger roaring.

Seeing this, Tian Buyi thought fiercely, 'If you still don't understand this, Da Ren, I'll beat you to death when I get back, so as not to disgrace my Dazhu Peak.'

As if sensing something, Song Daren watched Lin Zhu's movements intently, his mind focused to the extreme.

The Ten Tiger Swords, imbued with spirit, also roared like tigers, echoing their master.

Song Daren understood, and a different kind of aura rose from his body, plunging him into a mysterious state.

Tian Buyi's chubby face twitched. 'No way, this kid just had an epiphany like that? He actually had an epiphany! Unbelievable.'

He immediately realized that it wasn't his eldest disciple who was incredible, but Lin Zhu.

After only two rounds of fighting, he seemed to have seen through Song Daren and deduced corresponding moves for Song to learn from, based on Song's weaknesses and flaws.

'A monster, utterly a monster, but thankfully he's one of us on the righteous path!'

Tian Buyi felt his heart beating faster than ever before.

'This child is outstanding; every child should be like this!'

Lin Zhu did not stop practicing his boxing techniques. On the contrary, his punches became heavier and his tiger roars became more powerful. The fierce tiger's intent was directed towards Song Daren with each roar.

Du Bishu and the others were also amazed by Song Daren's sudden enlightenment.

Although they have never had an epiphany, it doesn't mean they don't know what an epiphany is.

Zhang Xiaofan didn't think anything of it. He had already had an epiphany before and had even integrated Taiji Xuanqing Dao and Dafan Prajna. He was the kind of person who was lucky despite being a fool.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to break through to a higher realm in just one month, and a much higher one at that.

This state is rare and hard to come by, especially for Song Daren, it is something that can only be encountered by chance.

But now, ironically, it has appeared.

He originally only had the strength of the fifth level of the Jade Purity Realm, but now, due to his state of enlightenment, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth around him is constantly flowing into his body.

As he drew his sword, each move carried the true essence of a fierce tiger, making his essence, energy, and spirit clear and transparent, and he unknowingly broke through to a higher realm.

The sixth level of the Jade Purity Realm is now complete.

The Foundation Establishment stage grants a lifespan of three hundred years, but Song Daren is only a little over a hundred years old.

The next stage is Core Formation, which adds another two hundred years to one's lifespan, making it five hundred years.

Therefore, Song Daren is actually still quite young.

People like Tian Buyi, despite his middle-aged, chubby appearance, are actually at least nearly a thousand years old.

At this moment, Tian Buyi was also very excited to see Song Daren break through.

Although Song Daren's aptitude was not good, he had already reached the sixth level of Jade Purity. After this round of enlightenment, breaking through to the seventh level would not be too much of a problem.

In this way, he will not die of old age in the short term.

Song Daren's moment of enlightenment lasted until dawn, and no one, including Lin Zhu, disturbed him.

The sun rises on the horizon.

As the first rays of sunlight fell upon Song Daren, he opened his eyes.

Zhang Xiaofan and the others seemed to hear a tiger's roar coming from Song Daren.

Lin Zhu and Tian Buyi could clearly sense the fierce tiger essence on Song Daren's body, and even the spirituality of the Ten Tiger Sword had increased considerably.

As expected of a natal magic weapon in the Taiji Xuanqing Dao, its spirituality increases as the host's strength grows.

The two complement each other.

Tian Buyi was overjoyed.

Because of this, Song Daren will not encounter any bottlenecks even if he breaks through to the ninth level of Yuqing.

As for the Shangqing realm, unless one has top-tier aptitude, breaking through it depends on a stroke of luck.

After Song Daren regained consciousness, he looked at Lin Zhu with gratitude in his eyes.

Tian Buyi snorted and said, "Hurry up and thank Fellow Daoist Lin."

Song Daren knew what Tian Buyi meant, so he knelt down and performed a deep bow.

Lin Zhu couldn't let him actually kneel down, so she helped him up directly, saying, "That's too much. I'm only seventeen years old, I can't accept such a grand gesture."

Song Daren was at a loss for what to do.

Tian Buyi felt exhausted. "My eldest apprentice is too dull." He coughed twice. "Although there's no need for a grand gift, I still want to thank you."

Song Daren finally understood and bowed to Lin Zhu, saying, "Song Daren thanks Fellow Daoist Lin."

This time, Lin Zhu did not stop him. "You're too kind, Fellow Daoist Song, there's no need for such formalities."

After saying that, he helped Song Daren up.

Then, he looked at Zhang Xiaofan and said, "The competition should be starting soon, and it may be too late for Fellow Daoist Zhang."
