Indestructible Body Of Vajra Of The Village Leader

Outer training tones the muscles, bones, and skin, inner training cultivates a breath of qi.

Among the things in the Martial World that are hardest to cultivate, it is the robust Inner Qi that stands out. Without Heavenly Talent and Earthly Treasure or Divine Skills, Inner Qi requires the laborious effort of daily and relentless practice to see any effect.

Yet, if Inner Qi is cultivated to a high realm, it also has extremely strong lethality.

Martial Arts Experts usually possess powerful Inner Qi.

However, due to the slow fruition of Inner Qi, the approach to improving combat prowess in the early stages within the Martial World remains solely through external power.

It is said that Tai Chi ushers peace in literature while Baji Fist establishes Heaven and Earth in martial arts.

Tai Chi Boxing is considered an internal style while Baji Fist is external.

The internal style focuses primarily on health preservation, cultivating mind and character foremost.

Conversely, the external style prioritizes combat, with rigorous physical training taking precedence.

Tai Chi Fist moves are gentle, with tranquility in motion, while Baji Fist moves are firm, creating gusts with each posture.

Thus, Tai Chi is deemed literary, Baji Fist martial, Tai Chi yin, and Baji Fist yang.

Martial Arts consists of these contradictory yet unified elements of literature and martial arts, internal and external, rigid and flexible, yin and yang.

Under the current limited conditions, Jiang Dali’s plan for future cultivation is straightforward, from external to internal, first train in external power then acquire the ”Nine Yang Divine Skill” to cultivate Inner Strength.

Only by unifying internal and external cultivation can one stand firm in the Martial World.

His focus on external power at this time is not only because of its decisiveness and aggressive nature which suits his disposition but also because once external power is well-trained, it will segue nicely into the next phase of his plan.

It should be noted that he will soon face Dou Dajin from the Dragon Gate Escort Agency.

And Dou Dajin has already become the prey of Ah San, an expert from the Western Vajra Sect sent by the Prince Ruyang.

Ah San of the Western Vajra Sect is an incredibly formidable expert, who has defeated many from the Six Great Sects such as Wudang Shaolin and has even matched the Sect Hierarch of the Ming Sect, Zhang Wuji.

His Martial Arts are typical external skills of the Vajra Sect, having mastered the upper-level external skills of the Shaolin like the ”Vajra Demon Suppression Divine Power,” and his main techniques are the fierce Powerful Vajra Finger and Dragon Claw Hand.

So, based on his guess, as long as he performs well with Dou Dajin, he might have the opportunity to encounter Ah San in the future and learn even more powerful external skills.

...

The moon’s light was serene.

Inside the courtyard.

As Jiang Dali put the 100 Potential Points he earned from the ”recruit” mission, along with the 32 Potential Points he had left, all into use.

His external power ”Iron Cloth Shirt” at the slightly successful 3rd Realm immediately jumped two levels and was directly promoted to the 5th Realm, the Refining Realm.

He had previously practiced the Iron Cloth Shirt to nearly the 4th Realm, having mastered it at about eighty percent of the 3rd Realm.

Therefore, with the expenditure of 132 Potential Points, this external skill was directly elevated to the 5th Realm.

Jiang Dali felt that his understanding and familiarity with the Iron Cloth Shirt had deepened significantly.

Trying to exert a little strength in his body, he slightly bent his knees in a relaxed and steady manner as the solid dirt ground seemed to tremble lightly.

A daunting momentum burst forth from Jiang Dali, and he seemed to grow taller by two feet, the body under the Tiger Skin Clothing appearing as finely-forged steel, resembling an immensely fearsome war machine, his skin instantly shifting from bronze to a dark hue.

”Ha! ——”

With a loud shout from Jiang Dali, his arms swelled with veins like chains, and his fists were as hard as iron, emanating a violent, steel-cast ferocity, his whole body brimming with immense power.

Maintaining this state, Jiang Dali, with eyes like a tiger, looked towards the courtyard door at two mountain bandits who were trembling with tension, and beckoned gruffly, ”Come here!”

”Great... Great Master...”

”Don’t, Great Master, we were already exhausted from accompanying you yesterday.”

The two mountain bandit underlings were both panic-stricken, their faces pale, feeling the pain starting afresh at their wound sites.

”Cut the crap and come over! Stab me hard!”

Jiang Dali bellowed like a black bear, violently tearing off his tiger skin clothing, eyes fiercely sharp.

The two mountain bandits glanced at each other, took in the sight of Jiang Dali’s enormous and terrifying fists the size of a casserole, and with resignation mixed with trepidation, picked up the sharp-ended iron rods from the side and tiptoed toward Jiang Dali.

Before long, the courtyard echoed with the sounds of fierce collisions and pounding, interspersed with the muffled grunts and anguished cries of the two mountain bandit underlings and the dissatisfied roars of Jiang Dali.

”Put your back into it! Work harder! If you don’t injure me today, no one eats tomorrow!”

”Come on, hit me harder! I’m standing still and you still can’t hurt me, you useless fools!”

After ten minutes or so,

Both mountain bandit underlings were lying on the ground, gasping for air, drenched in sweat; their eyes filled with fear as they looked at the broad-shouldered, mighty man standing like a black bear, their hands bruised and bloodied from the high-intensity attack.

”Not bad performance, take them away! Reward each with two catties of meat to replenish their bodies.”

Jiang Dali, looking at the several shallow wounds torn and pierced on his body, nodded with satisfaction.

Immediately, several mountain bandits entered from outside, respectfully saluted Jiang Dali before dragging the two away.

”With my Iron Cloth Shirt practiced to the level of refinement, my body’s defense has greatly strengthened; ordinary people wielding common blades would find it very difficult to injure me.”

Jiang Dali smiled slightly, quite pleased, ”However, if they wield a sharp weapon or famous blade, it could still potentially injure me. Also, some Martial Arts techniques like the Soft Palm that use softness to overcome hardness could pose a threat to me.

But Multi-Armed Bear Dou Dajin likely doesn’t know any Soft Palm techniques. As for a sharp weapon or famous blade, the opponent might possess one, but I also have my golden silk armor for protection.”

He summarized quietly in his mind.

Jiang Dali wasn’t worried.

Dou Dajin hadn’t arrived yet.

There was still time to continue to improve his strength.

Once the players completed the tasks he assigned, he would gain some Cultivation Points and Potential Points.

Thus, the players had now become his cultivation accelerators.

And reciprocally, with his continuous mission releases guiding them, the players would also rapidly increase their strength with each completed task, earning some Cultivation Points and Potential Points.

This created a mutually beneficial and win-win situation; he just needed to maintain a core attraction and control power over these ”cash crops.”

...

He put on the tiger skin clothing.

Returned to his room.

Jiang Dali opened the Martial World forum to check the latest buzz.

Now it was just the first day of the open beta, and in his memory, the vast majority of players hadn’t reaped many benefits in the Mixed Martial Arts World but instead took some hard knocks from the martial society.

Only a very few lucky ones were born near major sects or families and had opportunities to approach these prestigious sects on the first day.

On the Martial World forum,

Jiang Dali indeed saw a few show-off lucky players flaunting their unique adventures, contrasted with the vast majority of players.

A player named ”Greedy Blood Moon” was born near the Sun and Moon Divine Sect’s Heimu Cliff in a village and was directly taken by a descending demonic person from the sect to Heimu Cliff to become an attendant.

Another player named ”Murong Tiezhu” was born in Luoyang City. By chance, he encountered a passing disciple from the prestigious Murong Family who took special notice of him and gave him a few pointers. He gained 50 Cultivation Points and became the first exposed player in the Power Training Stage, eliciting envy and jealousy from countless players.

Jiang Dali noticed that his Black Wind Village had also become famous alongside them, exposed collectively by players like Zhongyuan Miao Renfeng, attracting the curious attention of many players...
