Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System

Chapter 481: Chapter 188: Revealing the Transcendent in the Bustling Market_5

Zhang Beixing suddenly dashed towards the residential building engulfed in fierce flames. As he rapidly neared the blazing shop, his speed also increased.

Zhang Beixing did not hesitate. With a thought, he directly mobilized the Eastern Green Emperor’s Wood Qi from the Postnatal Five Qi hidden in his liver, gathering it around his body and stimulating acupoints on his body in a specific pattern and sequence.

Under the stimulation of the Eastern Green Emperor’s Wood Qi, in an instant, Zhang Beixing felt all the tightly closed acupoints on his body spring open, his pores relaxing.

The next moment, Zhang Beixing felt an abrupt lightness throughout his body. Just then,

BOOM!

As if sensing the arrival of this unwelcome visitor, the flames roared and swept violently towards him. If this blaze had struck him directly, even if Zhang Beixing survived, he would have suffered moderate burns!

But with Zhang Beixing’s acupoints now opened, the flames were doomed to miss him!

Wood, as one of the five fundamental elements, is vast and capable of myriad transformations. In its aspect of Zhen (Shock), Wood is Thunder, wielding the power of the Thunderbolt to cleanse the world of evil. In its aspect of Xun (Gentleness), Wood is Wind.

Wind is formless, adapting to its surroundings, ever-changing and unpredictable!

When the enemy is unyielding, I am supple; when the enemy is supple, I am unyielding.

After experiencing Oizaki’s Eight Challenges, Zhang Beixing had gained an exceptionally profound understanding of natural concepts like ’wind’ and ’emptiness.’ This understanding allowed him to progress rapidly in the Lightness Technique, despite having only recently begun practicing it, and he had already grasped its essence.

It was this understanding he employed now.

Facing the raging inferno, he was utterly fearless. He even looked up at the child on the third floor, then rose onto his tiptoes and pushed off forcefully.

WHOOSH—

The flames howled past but missed completely, not even touching the hem of Zhang Beixing’s clothing.

Instead, Zhang Beixing used the force and gust generated by the flames’ rush to propel himself straight up!

Two meters! Four meters! In a single leap, he covered nearly five meters.

Seeing Zhang Beixing display such astonishing leaping power under such dangerous circumstances, narrowly avoiding the encroaching flames, everyone present was shocked.

A five-meter jump—already double the world record!

At the same time, watching Zhang Beixing’s actions, a bold thought arose in their minds.

Could it be that Zhang Beixing was planning to jump up and rescue the child?

Although they knew Zhang Beixing meant well, no one there, except for Huo Honghao, had any confidence in him!

The idea was simply too absurd, pure fantasy!

After all, each story here was 3.33 meters tall!

Even if Zhang Beixing nearly leaped five meters, he was still almost five meters short of the third floor!

Not to mention, there were no footholds nearby for Zhang Beixing to stand or climb on, and with the continuous fire, climbing was impossible; he’d be burned to a crisp.

It’s still no good!

A sense of pessimism couldn’t help but rise in people’s hearts.

Trapped behind the security bars, with the fire brigade still en route. The only one who had stepped forward to attempt a rescue couldn’t reach that height.

In this situation, unless a Superman appeared, there would be no breakthrough.

”Great Grandmaster Huo, Grandmaster Yu, come with me now to put out the fire and suppress its spread,” Yang Ying said. Although astounded by Zhang Beixing’s incredible leaping power, she didn’t believe he could save anyone that way. Worried he’d be burned, she grabbed a fire extinguisher and rushed forward to help.

Only Huo Honghao, who had witnessed Zhang Beixing’s use of the Lightness Technique, placed enormous hope in him at this moment. Standing still with his head raised, he watched without moving, even making a casual comment.

”Leader, it’s too soon to tell. Just wait and see, don’t be hasty.”

”Hmm?”

Hearing Huo Honghao’s words, Yang Ying frowned slightly, somewhat displeased.

At a time like this, you’re still here saying such meaningless things. Is there any point? So what if Zhang Beixing’s abilities are immense, enough to shatter the world record and double the Human high jump record in a single leap? But what’s the use? That third floor is ten meters high! Ten meters! Zhang Beixing had accomplished half the distance. But what about the remaining half? Could he really make another jump in midair...

BANG!

Suddenly, a muffled sound came from the sky.

Yang Ying instinctively looked up and froze in place as if struck by lightning.

He saw that after Zhang Beixing leaped five meters high, he had apparently reached his limit, his figure showing a clear downward trend.

But just as he was about to fall, Zhang Beixing fiercely kicked off the wall with his foot.

For a split second, his body paused in midair.

Then, like a two-stage rocket, he shot upward once more! Six meters... eight meters...

The momentum from that kick quickly dissipated.

Zhang Beixing immediately channeled the Eastern Green Emperor’s Wood Qi and kicked out fiercely again. He distinctly felt nearly half of the Eastern Green Emperor’s Wood Qi he had cultivated instantly consumed!

After all, he was leveraging force in midair—twice in a row. This placed an enormous drain on his Postnatal Five Qi.

Fortunately, Zhang Beixing possessed a profound foundation, having diligently nurtured his Postnatal Five Qi all this time. Otherwise, even having broken through to the Transcendent realm, he would have been helpless in this situation!

This is enough!

Zhang Beixing, seeing the child now within reach, stretched out his hand and grabbed the security bars on the window. With his terrifying strength, Zhang Beixing managed to stabilize his body, hanging suspended in midair.

The child was now dumbstruck, having forgotten to cry. Seeing Zhang Beixing fly straight up from the ground, the child was so stunned he momentarily forgot his fear. He just stared blankly. After a moment, he asked timidly in a soft, childish voice, ”Big brother, are... are you a martial hero?”

”That’s right. Because you were in danger, little friend, this martial hero came to save you,” Zhang Beixing replied with a faint smile. Noticing the flames had already spread to the kitchen, he sensed the urgency and delayed no further. Gripping the security bars, he applied immense force.

GRIND—

Under Zhang Beixing’s monstrous strength, the sturdy security bars were wrenched apart, creating a large opening in the middle.

But inside, another iron door blocked the way.

However, this was no issue for Zhang Beixing. Back when he was a Great Grandmaster, he could shatter swords with a flick of his finger using his potent internal energy. Now, having entered the Transcendent realm, his power had increased even further.

BOOM!

Zhang Beixing simply punched through the flimsy iron door and tore it apart!

”Let’s go!”

Zhang Beixing reached out, scooped the child into his arms, and without hesitation, turned and leaped down.

Almost the instant he leaped,

BOOM!

The flames reached the nearby gas stove. The intense heat burned through the gas pipe.

Instantly, an explosion erupted, the terrifying shockwave shattering all the house’s windows.

The fire raged even more fiercely.

But now, no one cared about the fire. All eyes were fixed on Zhang Beixing, who was jumping from the building with the child in his arms.

THUD!

With a dull sound, the already damaged ground beneath cracked and splintered even more violently.

Dust billowed everywhere. Amidst the dust, a figure could faintly be seen in a half-kneeling, shock-absorbing posture, slowly rising to his feet.

The onlookers: ”!!!”
