Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

Chapter 490: Chapter 188: Challenge

...

Wuling City.

War God Sect Branch.

Zuo Feng walked within the sect, feeling the unusual glances from those around him.

”Have you heard? That Martial Artist recently recruited by the Infinite Sect is quite extraordinary; even Heng Qiming and Uncle Zuo Feng lost to him.”

”I heard too. It’s a shame I wasn’t there at the time.”

”It’s said that Lin Zheyu is just a Bone Marrow Refining Realm martial artist, breaking through from the Qi Blood Eight Transformations, but his sheer strength doesn’t lose to Uncle Zuo Feng. It’s unbelievable.”

In the War God Sect, many people were discussing Lin Zheyu’s feats.

They were all a bunch of battle-loving guys who highly revered fights and strong individuals.

”He must have trained in a Body Refining Technique.”

”His current strength is formidable, but spending so much time and energy on a Body Refining Technique as such a genius seems unwise.”

A guy as strong as an ox shook his head and commented.

”You’re worrying too much.”

”You’ve heard of Zhao Hao, right? The one who tied with Puxuan at this year’s Martial Dao conference by utilizing his Lightweight Skill.”

”Now Puxuan has already climbed to rank 83 on the Hidden Dragon List. Imagine how impressive Zhao Hao’s Lightweight Skill is.”

”And Lin Zheyu once had an alias, which was Zhao Hao.”

”Being able to cultivate Lightweight Skill to such a masterful level while simultaneously advancing in Body Refining Technique, do you think his approach unwise?”

The man’s companion retorted with a smirk.

”Hiss, so Lin Zheyu is actually Zhao Hao.”

”I thought Zhao Hao had been secretly recruited as a True Disciple by the Bull Demon Sect, but unexpectedly he became a True Disciple of the Infinite Sect without a sound!”

”...”

Listening to the discussions around him, Zuo Feng couldn’t help but frown, feeling quite displeased.

”What are you all doing standing here? Have you finished your tasks?”

”Have you completed your cultivation assignments?”

”Do you think the cultivation assignments are too easy?”

”All of you, get back to training, each person’s training assignment today is doubled!”

Zuo Feng glanced over everyone, speaking coldly.

In the eyes of the crowd, both unwilling and not daring to refute, he slowly walked out of the square and arrived at Chongwu Hall.

”Master.”

Zuo Feng respectfully saluted the person inside Chongwu Hall.

This was his master, the Sect Elder Lu Jianting.

Lu Jianting sat upright, glanced at Zuo Feng, and nodded slightly.

”Master, is it true that Lin Zheyu is a Bone Marrow Refining Realm martial artist who broke through from the Qi Blood Eight Transformations?”

Zuo Feng asked, voicing his doubts.

From his appearance, Lin Zheyu looked much younger than him.

Yet his strength, Lightweight Skill, and combat awareness were all superior to his.

In the powerful physique he prided himself on, nearly unbeatable in the same rank, he actually lost to Lin Zheyu. This was a blow to Zuo Feng’s pride.

He broke through to the Bone Marrow Refining Realm with the Nine Transformations of Qi and Blood, and his physique’s strength was nearly unbeatable in the same rank.

Only among Bone Marrow Refining martial artists, those who pursued Body Refining or were geniuses breaking through to Bone Marrow Refining Realm with Qi Blood Nine Transformations could possibly match him.

Zuo Feng knew Lin Zheyu mastered Lightweight Skill, cultivating it to an astonishing level.

In his mind, to cultivate Lightweight Skill to such a high level, it was impossible to have so much time for Body Refining Technique.

This was also why Zuo Feng was so shocked after witnessing Lin Zheyu’s incredible strength.

”I don’t know.”

”Lin Zheyu’s background is very mysterious. The first trace of him was in the Southern Barbarians region, and that location has already fallen, making it hard to gather much information.”

”He claims to come from the Northern Land, but sending people to investigate yielded no information.”

”It might be true, it might be false, but it’s none of your concern.”

Lu Jianting said indifferently.

Though there was no imposing aura on him, he gave Zuo Feng a feeling of inexplicable authority.

”You have outstanding talent, but your mindset falls short.”

”Even if you were matched in strength with Luo Manghan, you might not be his opponent.”

”Luo Manghan’s resilient spirit of fighting repeatedly, not fearing battle, bravery in defeat against strong opponents, is the mindset needed by the Martial Artists of our War God Sect.”

”Regardless of Lin Zheyu’s true depth, your task is to use every means to defeat him, overcome him, and make him a stepping stone on your road forward!”

Lu Jianting’s voice grew louder, until it echoed like a bell, leaving Zuo Feng dazed.

”Yes, disciple will heed the master’s teachings!”

Zuo Feng snapped back to reality and respectfully replied.

...

Infinite Sect Back Mountain.

By the waterfall and deep pool, Lin Zheyu lay on the ground, exhausted.

He had pushed himself too hard just now, almost draining all his energy.

Gurgle~~

His stomach rumbled loudly, and hunger overcame him.

”Hungry again.”

”Having a strong physique is certainly great, but it also makes you hungrier.”

Lin Zheyu muttered softly.

Restoring a bit of his energy, he propped himself up with his hands and sat up.

Taking out Essence Qi Elixirs from his bosom, he swallowed three of them before the hunger subsided.

His powerful body had an astonishing digestion rate, requiring large amounts of high-energy food daily to meet his needs.

”Even if I now proclaimed myself a Qi Blood Realm martial artist, probably no one would believe it.”

Lin Zheyu thought to himself.

The strength of his current physique was undeniably convincing.

In Martial Arts Skill, there are many strong Body Refining Techniques.

However, the efficiency of cultivating Body Refining Techniques is much lower than enhancing physique through Qi Blood.

Trying to cultivate a physique to Lin Zheyu’s level at the Qi and Blood Realm through Body Refining Technique was nearly impossible.

Forty is a Martial Artist’s watershed age.
