”Is this entering the spirit?” Chu Zhiyuan suddenly punched out again.

In the next moment, a soft glow appeared, quickly condensing into a light fist, instantly appearing ten zhang away in front of Li Yuzhen.

Li Yuzhen waved her sword.

The tip of the sword, condensed with red light, struck the light fist.

A wild wind howled instantly.

Li Yuzhen’s white robe fluttered, her hair fluttering, as if she was about to ride the wind away.

Chu Zhiyuan finally understood the profound mystery of this Entering Spirit Fist Technique.

Speed like light.

This is one of the characteristics of the Great Brightness Fist, thoroughly unleashed.

Pure, bright, like light.

And the Entering Spirit level Great Brightness Fist has the speed of light.

A punch is thrown, ignoring distance, instantly hitting the opponent.

Li Yuzhen’s cultivation realm is the Divinity Transformation Realm, her reaction and speed far surpassing his current Qi Transformation Realm, plus she possesses Spirit Level martial arts, she can block it.

Chu Zhiyuan punched out several more times, provoking Li Yuzhen to continuously strike with her sword.

Super Sense was providing insight into both sides.

Seeing his own fist technique, analyzing and illuminating his own fist technique, and also seeing Li Yuzhen’s sword technique.

The power in the void rapidly converged on his fist, then transformed into a light, shooting out instantly.

This light seemed unaffected by air resistance, instantly traversing the space, reaching Li Yuzhen.

And the red light at Li Yuzhen’s sword tip was also extremely strange, the fist power of the Great Brightness Fist disintegrating upon contact with it.

It disintegrated upon touch, as if precisely hitting the structural center of the Great Brightness Fist.

Like a house, the center of gravity fell apart, easily breaking the structure of the house.

If it were pure force against force, it wouldn’t be easy to disintegrate the power of the Great Brightness Fist.

But this bit of red light did not engage in direct confrontation, but rather skillfully disintegrated the extremely pure force of the Great Brightness Fist, quite ingenious.

He retracted his fist and stood, eyes blazing, full of spirit, with a smile on his lips.

He was extremely excited and surprised to have comprehended the Entering Spirit level Great Brightness Fist.

Unexpectedly, understanding came so easily, stepping into the Entering Spirit level effortlessly.

Li Yuzhen stood with her sword sheathed, calm and indifferent.

Chu Zhiyuan took a step towards her, looking her up and down, especially focusing on the longsword at her slender waist.

The longsword was ancient, exuding the vicissitudes of time, clearly of significant origin.

”Good sword technique.” Chu Zhiyuan said, ”What sword technique is this?”

”Red Cloud Sword Technique.” Li Yuzhen replied.

”Never heard of it, the sword technique of Red Cloud Peak?”

”...Yes.” Li Yuzhen said.

Chu Zhiyuan asked, ”What level is this Red Cloud Sword Technique?”

”Spirit Transformation Realm.”

”No wonder.” Chu Zhiyuan nodded, ”If your Red Cloud Sword Technique hadn’t been practiced to the Entering Spirit level, could it block my Great Brightness Fist?”

”It couldn’t.” Li Yuzhen said.

Chu Zhiyuan laughed, ”Can the realm of martial arts suppress the realm of cultivation?”

”Cultivation enhances oneself, while martial arts draw upon the great power of heaven and earth to empower oneself, an Entering Spirit level martial art, especially a First-Grade Entering Spirit level martial art, naturally suppresses the cultivation of the Divinity Transformation Realm.... Of course, the premise is that the person with Divinity Transformation Realm cultivation hasn’t practiced an Entering Spirit level martial art.”

”First Grade...”

”The Prince Consort doesn’t know martial arts are divided into nine grades?”

”I haven’t really paid attention, after all, I only practice the Great Brightness Fist.”

”The Great Brightness Fist is a First-Grade martial art, rare in the world, martial arts are divided into nine grades, and the first six grades can suppress the cultivation realm with martial arts realm, the last three grades do not have this effect,... actually, among the last three grades in the Eight Realms, there are only the Four Realms, the middle three grades have six realms, the top three grades have eight realms.”

Chu Zhiyuan was suddenly enlightened.

He really didn’t know this basic knowledge, all because he hadn’t entered Diwu Academy.

”Normally, it’s difficult for someone with Qi Transformation Realm cultivation to understand martial arts at the Divine Level, but understanding at the Entering Intent level is not difficult, with Transformation Realm cultivation, understanding at the Divine Level is not difficult,... thus suppressing the cultivation realm with the realm of martial skill is only a beautiful imagination, hard to happen in reality.”

”So, I’m a martial arts prodigy doing what others can’t?”

”...Yes, the Prince Consort is indeed a rare prodigy.”

Chu Zhiyuan laughed, ”Hearing that from you makes me particularly happy.”

Li Yuzhen was silent.

——

Chu Zhiyuan turned and left the alley, found a restaurant to watch performances while drinking.

The Seventh Prince, Chu Lieyu, soon appeared.

He wore a dark green brocade robe, followed by two middle-aged guards exuding restrained elegance, with a white jade folding fan in his hand, acting like a wealthy young master.

Chu Zhiyuan stood and clasped fists.

The two joked as they sat at the table, drinking and eating some fruits while chatting.

In the restaurant’s central courtyard, a group of women danced gracefully.

Wearing soft and wide robes, their figures, exquisite and charming, became faintly visible with their movements, arousing a strong impulse to uncover their clothes and see the scenery within.

Chu Zhiyuan’s gaze was calm, holding a silver cup, quietly watching these dancers.

The insight revealed that the dancers’ steps were mysterious, subtly emitting a strange power that spread, causing the mind to fluctuate.

Is this a derivative cultivation technique of the Heavenly Demon Clan?

Chu Lieyu set down his wine cup, smiling, ”Ninth Brother, do you know why Eldest Brother, Second Brother, and Third Brother were all eager to enter the Jade Scene Cave Heaven?”

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

Chu Lieyu glanced around and suddenly switched to Sound Transmission into Secret, ”I found out it’s because this time the Heavenly Person Peak in the Jade Scene Cave Heaven will reappear.”

Chu Zhiyuan looked at him, puzzled.

He really didn’t know what the Heavenly Person Peak was.

Chu Lieyu turned his head to glance around, ”This is a secret among secrets. I’ll tell you more when we go to the Great Bright Peak tomorrow.”

Though curious, Chu Zhiyuan didn’t ask further.

The two watched the performance for a while, the Seventh Prince, while greatly appreciating the graceful dancers, did not make a move, only watched.

The two returned home satisfied.

When Chu Zhiyuan returned to the Prince Mansion, You Lan and Xiao Zhu’s group were already waiting in the courtyard, serving him as he washed. Afterward, he sat on the bed practicing his skills.

While martial skills are important, cultivation realm is fundamental and the root for extending lifespan.

——

At noon the next day, Chu Zhiyuan saw Chu Honglin.

Without any pretense, he directly used the Great Brightness Fist, surprising Chu Honglin.

He looked at Chu Zhiyuan, perplexed.

A moment later, he suddenly turned and walked away, drifting away like a white cloud with incredible speed.

A while later, he drifted back, appearing before Chu Zhiyuan with a Jade Ruyi in hand.

The Jade Ruyi was half an arm’s length, carved with strange patterns, seemingly flowing subtly.

The jade was mutton fat white jade, emitting a soft, lustrous glow, warm as if infused with spring water.

Curious, Chu Zhiyuan wondered what he intended to do with it, was it a gift for himself?

A reward for his incredible perception, practicing the Great Brightness Fist to Entering Spirit?

Unexpectedly, Chu Honglin suddenly tapped Chu Zhiyuan’s forehead lightly with the Jade Ruyi.

Chu Zhiyuan was caught off guard, too close to evade in time.

As the Jade Ruyi touched his forehead, his vision blurred, the world seemed to shake intensely, and he lost control of his body.

He quickly replaced his senses with Super Sense, his figure staggering momentarily before regaining balance.

”Uncle, what is this...?” He steadied himself, bewildered, looking at Chu Honglin.

Chu Honglin looked at the Jade Ruyi, then at Chu Zhiyuan, laughing, ”Not bad, not bad!”

Chu Zhiyuan asked, confused, ”Uncle, what is this?”

”Evil Extinguishing Ruyi.” Chu Honglin laughed, ”A treasure of the royal brother, specifically restraining the souls of the Heavenly Demon and Demon Clan.”

Chu Zhiyuan immediately understood his meaning, exasperatedly saying, ”Uncle suspects I’ve been body seized?!”

Chu Honglin said, ”Better be cautious, as your changes are quite dramatic after all.”
