From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

"How did your sword energy break through my Nine Dragons Combined?" After standing up, Zhao Xinchuan also clasped his hands in a fist salute to Zhang Dong and asked about the reason why his Transformation Qi Force was broken.

"This is no secret. It's just that the method of my Flowing Cloud Sword comes from observing the ever-changing weather and is extremely sensitive to changes in airflow."

Your Qi is incredibly powerful, but it ultimately flows through the air, which is why I can sense it.

The sword light I emitted was called 'Mountain-Covering Ink,' named after the dark clouds pressing down on a mountain during a thunderstorm. It appeared to be only a thin line, but it was extremely solid. Brother Zhao's qi energy, while exquisitely formed, was somewhat scattered.

Zhang Dong was not stingy in explaining why his method could break through the Qi energy: "If Brother Zhao could also sense the surrounding airflow, the force he could unleash would certainly be stronger."

"I've learned a lot!"

Zhao Xinchuan accepted his defeat wholeheartedly.

Zhang Dong was pleased to see his straightforwardness and thought he was worth befriending, so he smiled and said, "There's no need for that. If I hadn't pointed it out, I think Brother Zhao would have thought of it in the future."

"I dare not accept such praise! I dare not accept such praise!"

Zhao Xinchuan felt somewhat ashamed.

But the two, though initially at odds, eventually became friends...

Thereafter.

Lu Jin and Zheng Zibu enter the stage.

Zheng Zibu's ability to enter the knockout stage and reach this third round is not because his life force is stronger than that of the older generation he has encountered. Although Maoshan also values ​​life force, with his current cultivation level, he can only rely on talismans.

But this is also part of his own strength.

It's better to say something than to say it.

He truly lived up to his reputation as someone who would eventually comprehend the "Heavenly Talisman," being proficient in all kinds of talismans and having drawn a batch of talismans before the conference even began.

But facing Lu Jin—

But she's still a bit too inexperienced.

The moment the match was announced to begin, Lu Jin used his formidable life cultivation to get close to Zheng Zibu.

"what?"

Before Zheng Zibu could even take the talisman out of his sleeve, his eyes widened, and before he could react, a large hand slammed down on his head.

With a "snap".

Zheng Zibu's vision blurred, and he collapsed to the ground.

Lu Jin wins!

"It was really satisfying." Looking at Zheng Zibu rolling his eyes, Lu Jin understood how Jiang Liu felt when he first fought him.

"Senior brother, is Lu Jin imitating you?"

Zhang Huaiyi, sitting in the audience, empathized with Zheng Zibu, having also been slapped by Zhang Zhiwei.

It hurts so much!

Glancing at Zhang Huaiyi, Zhang Zhiwei advised, "Junior brother, you should return to Longhu Mountain."

"what?"

Zhang Huaiyi was taken aback, then his eyes showed a hint of dissatisfaction. "Senior brother, no matter what, you have to let me watch this martial arts tournament, right?"

"Fine, whatever you want. I just hope that when you go back, you won't tell Master exactly where I went."

Without waiting for Zhang Huaiyi to ask for the reason, Zhang Zhiwei told him about how the chameleon invited forty-two advancers three days ago and poisoned them.

"That chameleon actually—"

Zhang Huaiyi was incredulous.

“We don’t want to get involved in the changing of dynasties on earth, but the most ambitious people on earth want to control us.”

Zhang Zhiwei sighed, "When I get back, I'll tell my master not to act impulsively. The Celestial Master's Mansion's legacy can't end in his hands, and if I don't go back..."

They will inevitably have to go through some trials, and in the process, they may very well, like Jiang Liu, take action against ordinary people who are not so kind.

If Master feels I have disgraced Longhu Mountain, then simply banish me from Longhu Mountain.

Although the poison has been neutralized, that chameleon mother actually dared to poison him!

Ha ha!

He is broad-minded, but also petty; the two are not mutually exclusive.

He won't yell unless I find an opportunity to slap him hard across the face.

open!

之！

维！

“This… Master wouldn’t do that.” Zhang Huaiyi trembled, believing that Zhang Jingqing would never drive Zhang Zhiwei down the mountain.

"You're still too naive, junior brother." Zhang Zhiwei, however, put his arm around Zhang Huaiyi's shoulder and laughed heartily, completely unconcerned.

Even if Master really banishes him from Longhu Mountain, so what?

He was a Taoist priest!

It's just entering the world!

in contrast.

Even though Zhang Huaiyi had already experienced a terrible ordeal down the mountain, resulting in the deaths of his family, and appeared quite mature, he still managed to do so.

But in Zhang Zhiwei's eyes, this junior brother had never truly entered the world!

Because of this one incident, she buried her true feelings deep inside, even changing her outward personality to try her best to please others...

Gee!

That's enough for being a person.

However, if one cannot confront one's inner self, it is far from enough to achieve anything in spiritual practice. Focusing on techniques rather than the Way will ultimately only trap one's own mind.

However, Zhang Huaiyi wouldn't listen to any of this, so Zhang Zhiwei thought to himself that the key was that the other party would have to go through the mortal world again in the future.

If this guy still doesn't understand after entering the world, he'll only hide it even more deeply in the future—

That could be considered a kind of "progress".

"Senior brother, don't give me that lewd smile, it's scaring me." Zhang Huaiyi trembled as he looked at Zhang Zhiwei, whose mouth was practically stretched to his ears. He remembered how, on the way to Yuhang, this senior brother had also hooked his arm around him and given him that same smile, and then—

He slapped himself hard.

It was a sneak attack!

"What are you afraid of? Your senior brother won't hit you, will he?" Zhang Zhiwei said.

“You slapped me last time.”

As he spoke, Zhang Huaiyi's gaze turned resentful.

"is it?"

Zhang Zhiwei laughed heartily, "How could I not remember? I suppose you were sleepwalking back then, junior brother, and you must have misremembered."

Zhang Huaiyi's lips twitched, speechless.

Their conversation ended there, as their next opponent was Jiang Liu and Si Chong.

After entering the arena, Jiang Liu cupped his hands and asked, "How is the Sanyi Sect doing lately?"

"very good!"

After Jiang Liu made a fool of himself in the preliminary rounds, Si Chong originally thought he could treat Jiang Liu with a normal attitude, but when they actually faced each other, he couldn't help but be sarcastic. However, he didn't say much nonsense and said directly, "Come! Make me verify the third level! I feel that I have reached the end of the second level!"

"In that case, I will make a fool of myself."

Seeing that Si Chong had activated the second level, with fair skin and swirling Qi waves that distorted the surrounding air, Jiang Liu knew that his wish had been fulfilled.

And now, it seems that Chong's current state has indeed reached the peak of the second level—

The double peak under normal circumstances.

Zuo Ruotong's cultivation was a case of "turning misfortune into blessing." Because of a mistake in his early cultivation, he had been in a state of reverse rebirth, to the point that he had already embarked on the path of the third stage of Qi transformation of the primordial spirit at the second stage of Qi transformation of the internal organs, and was only one step away from the final one.

Therefore, once you break through, you can reach the realm of Qi transformation and the gathering and dispersing of Qi throughout the body!

However, it seems that Chong only completed the transformation of Qi into the internal organs.

Thus, the lower dantian and the middle dantian achieve a balance, but the upper dantian is severely unbalanced with the other two, which is an imbalance between "nature" and "life".

Therefore, under normal circumstances, the process of breaking through from the second to the third level is extremely dangerous. It requires more than just perseverance and determination. If the balance point cannot be found, the slightest mistake can result in the destruction of one's meridians, rendering one useless; or even the shock to one's primordial spirit, leading to death.

Conversely, in unconventional cases like Zuo Ruotong's, the difficulties in achieving a breakthrough are actually fewer...

# Chapter 305 Reconstructing the Upper Elixir (Part 2)

After seemingly finishing his breathing exercises, the white energy around him returned, and the moment he opened his eyes, his figure quietly disappeared from the spot.

When it reappears—

hum!

His fist had already made contact with Jiang Liu's palm, spreading outwards a layer of solid wind, which startled the nearby audience members who all retreated.

"These two... are both top-tier experts!"

"Back up!"

But some people were pushing forward; reporters from various newspapers in Yuhang were constantly pressing their camera shutters.

martial arts!

Spell!

An extraordinary person!

This martial arts tournament is enough for them to report on for six months!

Compared to these reporters, Lu Mingfei and the reporters of Mingfei Newspaper had it much easier. This newspaper was famous throughout the city for reporting on the "Qingbai Twin Beauties" and the establishment of the Cultural Street. Even before the start of the Martial Arts Tournament, at Jiang Liu's instruction, they took the initiative to contact Smiling Tiger, thus making the Martial Arts Tournament widely known.
