Rise from a Low-class Family to Martial Artist

Ten days later.

In front of Lin Chen, there were already three beads turned fiery red, with the red color inside flowing like flickering flames upon closer inspection.

Martial Arts Mountain.

Lin Chen glanced at his ranking.

[Name: Lin Chen]

[Sect: Canglan Sect]

[Martial Arts Mountain Ranking:]

[Martial Arts Mountain Ranking: 69500]

[Points: 20500]

In ten days, he had risen by ten thousand ranks.

”Only 9500 ranks away from the top sixty thousand, another ten days should be sufficient.”

During these ten days, Lin Chen did not challenge one thousand matches; the further he pushed, the more apparent jumped rankings became, clearly indicating that martial artists at this realm could not constantly monitor Martial Arts Mountain.

Over these ten days, he fought approximately three thousand matches, skipping over more than six thousand.

By now, the opponents he encountered were already seventh-grade martial artists.

Before the seventy thousand rank, those genius disciples he met had the strength of seventh-grade martial artists but were in the eighth-grade realm, but these opponents now were all seventh-grade martial artists, making each battle more challenging than before.

Rank 69500.

Lin Chen chose to pause, and after retreating from Martial Arts Mountain, he began to unleash his palms on the spot.

The Wind and Cloud Palm stirred with thunder; after several palms, the shadows of palms filled the sky, hiding his figure.

The rise in Martial Arts Mountain ranking not only brought Lin Chen enriched combat experience and more points but also significantly enhanced his comprehension and divine soul.

[Title: Martial Arts Longevity (Martial Arts Mountain’s Fame, every thousand consecutive victories, martial comprehension doubles permanently, divine soul enhances by ten percent)]

When his panel was updated initially, his rank in Martial Arts Mountain was over eighty-seven thousand, and now breaking into seventy thousand, his comprehension alone had increased by nearly twenty times.

This was an extremely frightening concept.

While battling with these genius disciples of the Flame Dynasty, witnessing some palm techniques from the opponents, with terrifying comprehension enhancement, he had profound insight into his self-created Wind and Cloud Palm.

First Palm, Second Palm...

The Wind and Cloud Palm consists of seven palms in total.

After executing the seven palms, Lin Chen stood still, his eyes slowly closing.

Moments later, his right palm slowly struck out, starting with the Clear Wind Palm’s opening move, which was also the first palm technique he learned.

Amidst the clear wind, I am without form.

After executing the ethereal Clear Wind Palm, Lin Chen did not stop, the next moment his hands moved like clouds and water, the palm wind rippled like water waves, both hands softly resembling the undulating surface of water...

Using softness to overcome hardness, flowing endlessly.

He realized the Wind and Cloud Palm from both the Clear Wind Palm and Water Cloud Palm.

Inheriting the ethereal feel of Clear Wind Palm and the continual momentum of Water Cloud Palm, it burst forth like thunder in an instant, each palm stacking upon another, from the first palm to the seventh, the force multiplies.

After executing both Clear Wind Palm and Water Cloud Palm, Lin Chen began reminiscing about the battle scenes with numerous genius disciples of the Flame Dynasty on Martial Arts Mountain, every combat scene evolving and overlaying in his mind.

One breath, two breaths...

One two-hour, two two-hour...

This standing went on for a whole day.

Eventually, in Lin Chen’s mind, all combat scenes vanished, leaving only one giant palm, quietly floating there.

In the next moment, Lin Chen suddenly let out a long howl, the seven palms of Wind and Cloud Palm began merging into one, his two palms slowly coming together like pushing a sun.

”Celestial Derivation...”

The two words spilled from Lin Chen’s mouth, and in the next moment, his palms slowly struck out, a giant palm slowly emerging in the air ahead, its appearance causing several rippling distortions in the space around.

”Myriad Phenomena Destruction Palm!”

As Lin Chen uttered in a low voice, his palm struck down fiercely, where the palm seal passed, the wind and thunder churned, clouds rolled, terrifying palm winds surged like waves downward, eventually cascading into the extreme darkness.

Bang!

The giant palm landed, stirring the dust on the ground, and when the dust dissipated, there appeared a palm print pit five zhang deep in the rock, with residual palm winds roaring inside, lingering long.

”Celestial Derivation Myriad Phenomena Destruction Palm.”

Lin Chen opened his eyes, looking at his palm, he named it himself.

Nothing more, just because the name sounds impressive.

Your Majesty mentioned, after the Innate Sixth Realm of Flame Dynasty is the Myriad Phenomena Realm.

”Panel!”

Upon realizing the new palm technique, Lin Chen immediately summoned his panel.

[Host: Lin Chen]

[Realm: Seventh Grade]

[Spirit Tier: 3.9]

[Innate Technique: Celestial Derivation Myriad Phenomena Destruction Palm]

...

Upon seeing the words ”Innate Technique,” Lin Chen’s eyes contracted slightly, realizing that the palm technique he created was at the Innate Level, the same level as Canglan Finger.

Until now, of all the techniques he practiced, only Canglan Finger carried the mark of an Innate Technique, never expecting that the technique he created would also achieve Innate Level.

Though currently a truncated version, it should be complete once he steps into the Innate Realm.

”Martial Arts Mountain!”

With hardly any delay, Lin Chen reentered Martial Arts Mountain to test the power of his new palm technique.

Martial Arts Mountain.

Battle Plain.

As the opponent’s figure appeared, Lin Chen struck with one palm, the giant palm descended from the sky, pressing down like a mountain, forming a deep pit in the earth.

When the giant palm vanished, the opponent’s figure also disappeared accordingly.

...

...

Flame Dynasty, a certain location.

A young man wore a look of shock: ”A complete Innate Technique, isn’t this unfair?”

He also had Innate Level Cultivation Techniques, and his sect possessed several types.

However, unless one entered the Innate Realm, it was impossible to unleash the true power of Innate Techniques. In their Realm, even utilizing ten percent of the technique’s potential was considered quite impressive.

But the opponent’s recent palm strike was clearly at the complete level.

How was this achieved?

Someone who hadn’t entered the Innate Realm could wield the full power of an Innate Technique. Among ten thousand people, who could stand against him?

”Is the Flame Dynasty about to produce another super Celestial Pride?”

The young man was convinced that the opponent could easily break into the top twenty thousand ranks, perhaps even the top ten thousand, just with this Palm Technique.

Across the entire Flame Dynasty, only those super geniuses meticulously cultivated by various sects could compete with him.

...

...

Ten days later.

[Name: Lin Chen]

[Sect: Canglan Sect]

[Martial Arts Mountain Ranking: 52,500]

[Points: 37,500]

Lin Chen paused only after advancing his rank past fifty thousand in one go.

The Celestial Derivation Myriad Phenomena Destruction Palm was considered a ranking ace, with few disciples able to withstand even one of his palms. It wasn’t until the last few matches, when opponents had reached the Sixth Grade Realm, that they could merely resist his Celestial Derivation Myriad Phenomena Destruction Palm, and even then, only barely.

To avoid breaking his winning streak, he cautiously chose not to continue challenging for the time being.

[Activate Exchange!]

On the steps of Martial Arts Mountain, Lin Chen activated the exchange, his eyes filled with anticipation.

Now that he ranked within sixty thousand, he was eager to see what treasures related to the Divine Soul were available on Martial Arts Mountain.

[Divine Tempering Fire: 10,000 points]

[Divine Separation Liquid: 10,000 points]

Seeing these newly listed exchange items and their descriptions, Lin Chen’s eyes lit up.

He wanted both of them.

However, seeing the points required made him hesitate.

Exchanging one would require ten thousand points, and he could only afford to redeem three times with his current points, as he needed to conserve points for exchanging Innate Energy.

Divine Tempering Fire provides undamaged tempering to the Divine Soul, making it purer.

Divine Separation Liquid extracts and differentiates the Divine Soul, allowing the separation of Divine Thought.

The utility of the former is self-evident, and the latter is also necessary for Lin Chen. As his ranking increased on Martial Arts Mountain, the strength of his Divine Soul under the support of Martial Arts Longevity also grew stronger, but this didn’t mean that the separation of the Divine Soul increased similarly.

Currently, the separation of his Divine Soul into twelve strands was his limit.

The stronger the Divine Soul, the harder it became to separate Divine Thought, and Lin Chen deeply understood the power and marvel of Divine Thought.

”Twelve strands of Divine Thought are sufficient for now, or I can choose to enhance the purity of the Divine Soul.”

After a moment, Lin Chen made a decision and chose to exchange ten thousand points for the Divine Tempering Fire.

At the instant of his decision, a wisp of flame appeared above the steps, drifting toward him without causing any temperature change, finally entering his forehead.

The Divine Tempering Fire acted upon the Divine Soul.

At this moment, in Lin Chen’s Dantian, a lotus platform formed of flame appeared beneath the small figure.

The small figure sat on the lotus platform, and flames seeped through the gaps between the petals, enveloping the small Divine Soul like flower petals.

The flame wasn’t scalding but rather had a gentle warmth.

The fine sparks transformed into countless golden threads, flowing through every inch of the Divine Soul’s meridians, resembling a spring stream, sweeping away tiny impurities from the depths of the Divine Soul, circulating throughout the body three times before gradually dissipating.

An hour later, Lin Chen’s eyelashes trembled subtly, his figure returning from the steps of Martial Arts Mountain to reality. Every distant rumble of magma and the surrounding heat waves were now perceived with several times more clarity.

Whoosh!

In the next moment, with a single thought, a Flying Saber appeared before Lin Chen, transforming into a stream of light and darting toward the Abyss, its speed several times faster than before.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Several Flying Sabers whistled through the air, entering the Abyss.

Controlling his Divine Thought, Lin Chen guided the Flying Sabers deeper into the Abyss.

...

...

At this moment, on another side of the Abyss, several figures approached rapidly, accompanied by the sound of breaking air.

Four young men each had a layer of green light circling around them, though the green hue faded further as they moved closer to the Abyss.

”Senior brother, I’m afraid I can’t hold on.”

One of the young men stopped, a look of helplessness on his face: ”Going further, my Protective Light Shield will dissipate. I can’t withstand the temperatures here.”

Upon hearing this, the lead young man furrowed his brow: ”In that case, wait here, junior brother.”

Their mission this time was to awaken the sealed Li Fire. It was originally an endeavor he could handle alone, but three junior brothers were sent with him just in case any unexpected situations occurred.

So far, nothing unexpected had happened, so those junior brothers weren’t needed.

Thinking about the higher-ups’ plan, the young man smiled. Liang had been quite arrogant lately, exterminating the Northern Border Demon Race, while Han Kingdom hadn’t taken any military action against Liang, causing Liang’s martial artists to assume Han Kingdom feared them.

Little did they know it was a deliberate act by the higher-ups to lull Liang into a false sense of security.

Once he awoke the Li Fire over here, Liang’s southern lands would become scorched for thousands of miles, and simultaneously the army would begin to mobilize, hitting from both north and south. Along with Zheng Kingdom’s cooperation, Liang would be utterly destroyed in one fell swoop.

Either make no move or leave Liang with no chance once moved.
