Holy body, start with the Five Animal Exercises

84: Taking apprentices on behalf of the master”I am untalented, and currently still on the first level, just half a step away from the second level,” Long Qihan said with a smile.

Although he said he was untalented, he didn’t truly believe it.

Qin Jiang nodded slightly, raising his arm, ”Please.”

”Please!”

Long Qihan said ’Please’ and then charged directly at Qin Jiang. He clenched his five fingers in the air, and a transparent spherical space appeared around Qin Jiang’s location.

Outside, Long Yuesheng’s eyes narrowed when he saw this. This method of manipulating air was a power that all Secret Martial Artists possessed after absorbing Secret Martial Source Energy.

They could control the power of heaven and earth to a certain extent; if it wasn’t a power of the same Realm, one couldn’t even resist!

Qin Jiang raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of a smile on his face. He only felt as if he had fallen into a mire, and the strength required for any movement doubled.

He clenched his fist slightly, his fingers seeming to tug at space. With a casual wave, the spherical space was flung open like a crumpled piece of cloth.

As expected of a Secret Martial Artist, it seems I need to be a little more serious.

On the opposite side, Long Qihan’s eyes narrowed. He hadn’t expected Qin Jiang to break his Palm Heaven so easily. As expected of the peerless Prodigy that Third Uncle spoke of!

At the very least, before he became a Secret Martial Artist, he would have had no way to resist that move.

Just as he was filled with admiration, a sudden hurricane struck, and a gigantic palm pressed towards his face!

Caught off guard, he took the palm strike directly with his face.

What a joke, he, a dignified Secret Martial Artist, his Physical Body far surpassing True Martial Artists by an unknown margin, it was just a palm strike, watch me—

Slap, boom—!

After a crisp slap, there was a huge boom, and even the accumulated dust on the metal platform was stirred up.

As the smoke and dust cleared, a fiery red five-finger palm print appeared in the center of Long Qihan’s face. He stared blankly at his hands, the stinging pain on his face telling him this was not an illusion.

On the other side, Qin Han awkwardly put his hands behind his back.

He hadn’t expected Long Qihan to be unable to block even a palm strike at seventy percent of his normal strength.

”Sixth Junior Brother! Don’t be careless! Junior Brother Qin previously fought and killed an Eye Fiend with his bare hands! If you don’t go all out, you will surely lose!” Long Yuesheng shouted from outside the arena.

He knew Qin Jiang was strong, but he hadn’t expected that just one move would be enough to injure Sixth Junior Brother.

Long Qihan was startled by the words, looking at Qin Jiang with disbelief. A True Martial Artist killed an Eye Fiend?

An Eye Fiend comparable to a Secret Martial Artist?!

Without further hesitation, he mobilized the Azure Fire energy within his body, and azure flames appeared around him. A translucent Azure Fire Bronze Furnace, about one meter in diameter, floated above his head.

”Brother Qin, I was careless just now. You’ll need to be careful next!”

With that, his figure instantly vanished, and the next moment he suddenly appeared before Qin Jiang, moving so fast that even Qin Jiang was somewhat caught off guard.

However, his rich combat experience made him instinctively throw a punch.

Dark flames wrapped around his fist, striking upwards at Long Qihan’s chin.

Long Qihan was not to be outdone, pressing his elbow down to block the strike. The immense counter-shock made both of them tremble.

Bang, bang, bang!

The two stood opposite each other, their arms attacking rapidly, fist shadows appearing around them, forming an airtight wall of air.

As the offensive intensified, the wall of fist shadows and air gradually expanded. Black and azure flames splattered, leaving small scorch marks on the metal platform.

Finally, after thousands of exchanges, the platform beneath their feet could no longer withstand it, cracks appeared, and it exploded with a ’bang’.

The two also took the opportunity to separate. Long Qihan hovered in mid-air, his single palm raised. The Azure Fire Bronze Furnace floating above his head solidified, resembling a true azure bronze furnace.

”Suppress the Sea!”

He roared, and the Azure Fire Bronze Furnace pressed down on Qin Jiang, compressing the surrounding air along with it, like a piece of the sky crashing down!

Qin Jiang stood on the platform, no longer suppressing his power. He directly entered his liberated state, his figure instantly growing, transforming into a three-zhang giant.

He raised his arm and threw a punch, his fist wrapped in black flames, like tempered meteoric iron.

Crack—!

The black fist instantly pierced through the Azure Fire Bronze Furnace. The Azure Fire that landed on his arm was dissipated by the black fire in a breath’s time.

The brutal force, carrying fragments of the Azure Fire Bronze Furnace, smashed towards Long Qihan. Long Qihan struggled to resist, azure flames surging around him, but it was futile. The moment of contact, he was sent flying.

He crashed heavily to the ground, then stood up, his eyes filled with shock.

What on earth was that terrifying force just now?!

If Qin Jiang hadn’t held back at the last moment, he would probably be severely injured by now?!

He looked up at Qin Jiang. That three-zhang tall demonic body was like an ancient giant, exuding a wild, untamed aura.

This was at least a master comparable to a second-stage Secret Martial Artist!

But... a True Martial Artist, comparable to a second-stage Secret Martial Artist, how was this possible?!

Even though he had been personally defeated, he was unwilling to believe he was defeated by a True Martial Artist!

He would rather believe that Qin Jiang had cultivated some special Secret Martial arts, and his true Realm was not inferior to his own!

Outside the arena, Long Yuesheng stared blankly at the demonic figure on the platform. This was Qin Jiang?!

What kind of True Martial arts was he Cultivating? It was so terrifying?!

Beside him, Long Ye was also somewhat dazed. Back in Black Mountain City, he had never seen Qin Jiang in this form.

He had never in his life seen a True Martial Artist with such a massive Physical Body!

Not even when he was at the Longevity Sect before!

Long Daosheng, sitting on a stone, subconsciously picked up a piece of crispy meat and put it in his mouth, chewing.

At his current Realm, True Martial Artists held almost no secrets for him.

Is this the Xu Family’s Golden Statue Skill, the Xu Family’s Black Fiend Skill, the Demon Refining Sect’s Ten Devil Saber?

Each one was a top-tier True Martial art, no less than the Dragon Manifestation Tribulation!

Furthermore, he actually saw traces of at least ten different True Martial arts Cultivated on Qin Jiang’s body!

And what shocked him most was that Qin Jiang had perfectly integrated all these True Martial arts into one!

How high must one’s Martial arts accomplishment be to achieve this step?

His heart was shaken, not only by Qin Jiang’s power but also because he could understand this power.

There was no trickery or flashy elements; it was just so directly displayed before him, unadorned, pure power!

He could see all of this, yet he could never achieve this step!

In fact, he couldn’t even imagine how Qin Jiang had managed to do this.

A Genius, no! A Prodigy! This was a peerless Prodigy!

He seemed to glimpse the rise of a peerless overlord!

Within twenty years, or even ten years, the Bronze Bell Sect, and even the Longevity Sect, the entire Yuan Province, would all revere Qin Jiang!

”Big Brother, Big Brother.”

When he came back to his senses, Long Ye’s hand was gently waving before his eyes.

”Hmm? What’s wrong?” he asked.

As soon as he asked, he realized, and couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

He was currently in the Incarnation of an old farmer, experiencing heaven and earth. The shock Qin Jiang brought him had shaken his state of mind, at least three months of hard work had been wasted.

Looking at Qin Jiang, who had now returned to his normal size, he saw Qin Jiang’s gaze turn to him and slightly cupped his hands in greeting.

Nodding in satisfaction, he rose from the stone and walked towards Qin Jiang.

With each step, a golden glow emanated from his gray cloth robe, gradually transforming into a black robe with golden patterns.

”Qin Jiang, are you willing to join the Bronze Bell Sect? If you are, I will accept you as a disciple on behalf of my master. From now on, you will be my Fourth Junior Brother.”
