Chapter 327 "Contemplating" the Tathagata, Demonic Traces Reappear!

  Chapter 327 "Visualization" of the Tathagata, Demonic Traces Reappear!

  Dong Yue smiled freely. This step had stumped countless geniuses.

  Whether he could break through was still in the exploratory stage for him.

  "Haha, thanks for your kind words. Oh right, I almost forgot to tell you.

  The classic text of the Chengshi School, the [Chengshi Lun], says—'The Tathagata is one who attains enlightenment by riding the true path, hence the name Tathagata.'

  Therefore, when you practice, you can use the [Visualization Method] of the Image School to assist your cultivation.

  Bow before the image of the holy Shakyamuni Buddha. Although this method has no practical martial arts theory,

  I feel that it can indeed speed up the cultivation process."

  "Understood, I will make offerings when I get back."

  After saying goodbye, Meng Chuan left.

  As he walked, he inexplicably thought:

  when he was breaking through the hard skills of the Tantric School and performing various rituals, he always unintentionally sensed a mysterious power and a sense of appreciation.

  At the time, Meng Chuan thought it was the ghost of Master Domo.

  If it were the Golden Venerable Treasure Appearance Skill

  , he would quickly dismiss the idea. That would be disrespectful!

  The next day after lunch, Meng Chuan tried practicing indoors for the first time.

  He placed the statue he had borrowed from the Martial Arts Pavilion of the National University on the wall, and Meng Chuan, with his head bowed and hands clasped, looked somewhat strange.

  Not being a Buddhist disciple, his bowing always seemed "insincere."

  Meng Chuan didn't force it; it was his nature.

  He didn't believe in gods or Buddhas, nor in external objects; he only believed in his own fists.

  After bowing repeatedly, Meng Chuan placed the original bamboo slips before him and assumed the nine postures in sequence.

  He rhythmically channeled his Qi from the center of his chest, slowly stimulating his body.

  Nearly an hour later, after feeling the rainbow light emanating from his body, he completed his first attempt at the Body-Containing Technique.

  Meng Chuan sat on the ground with his legs spread apart, completely unladylike, to regulate his breathing.

  His worst fears hadn't come; Buddha hadn't come to him.

  But he immediately became wary again. What if it was like the Tantric methods, where Buddha only appeared during a breakthrough?

  Meng Chuan quickly shook his head; he had been disrespectful again.

  He quickly fixed his gaze on the Venerable One with unwavering devotion and loyalty!

  Coming back to his senses, Meng Chuan stopped thinking about these trivial matters and pondered inwardly:

  "This hard skill is truly exhausting. Not only does it take longer to practice each time, but it also occupies two training slots.

  It's time to replan my hard skill practice time."

  Originally, Meng Chuan practiced all four skills together.

  Now, after completing the Golden Venerable One skill, he would trigger the Rainbow Body Transformation.

  Therefore, he could only practice two more ordinary hard skills before his body reached its limit, and his daily physical training would have to stop.

  After thinking for a while and glancing at the panel, he pondered:

  "Now that I have the advantage of a strong physique, and with the help of my Dao Heart and the Dragon Demon Mutation, I should persevere in cultivating the Dragon Lock Body and secure a spot.

  The effect of the [Bone Flower] is obvious from the [Flesh Flower]; it's definitely not simple, and the sooner I get my hands on it, the better.

  As for the next three skills,

  I'll tackle them one by one, breaking through their limits in turn. After the conscription mission ends and the New Year is over, I'll go to Wudang to find the core traits of hard skills. Then, based on those core traits, I'll completely adjust my external training plan."

  The [Little Tathagata's False Body] is good, but it's still a long way from breaking through limits.

  Including yesterday's two attempts, it only increased his proficiency by 1%.

  Although he mastered it in five hours, which was already incredibly freakish in Master Dong's eyes, Meng Chuan was still not satisfied.

  He felt that his external training talent needed improvement.

  He couldn't afford external tools, but he still had his greatest reliance: the limit-breaking trait!

  Thinking of this, Meng Chuan pondered and said,

  "Then let's practice the Iron Body of the Demon first. Besides the set effect, the [Rock Body] should also improve the talent for external training. Prioritize breaking through the limit."

  After a while, the Iron Body training was completed.

  With things on his mind, Meng Chuan stood up and practiced the ground stance.

  His meridian expansion would not regress, but that didn't mean he could automatically AFK. He still needed to cultivate.

  More than five hours later, the panel gave a notification:

  [Taiyi Three Talents Stance: Ground Stance Chapter (21%) → (22%)]

  By the way, he internally examined his meridians and found that another branch had connected to the acupoint. Four of the six major acupoints had been opened.

  The chosen point was exactly what Master Dong had mentioned yesterday: the Yongquan acupoint, located in the depression at the front third of the sole of the foot.

  It, along with Baihui, forms the body's celestial and terrestrial planes. After the Baihui acupoint mutated, the Yang energy became excessive, but isolated Yang cannot sustain itself. The Yongquan acupoint,

  after mutating, nourishes Yin and reduces fire

  , achieving Yin-Yang harmony. It also better guides Qi and blood and internal energy downwards, strengthening the leg muscles. He is currently accumulating Qi and blood, working on conquering the Guanyuan acupoint below the navel. He feels that it won't be long before he can begin the mutation process.

  After dinner, Meng Chuan practiced the Five Elements Fist of the Liver.

  Moonlight streamed down, and his figure was like a firefly in the night, effortlessly manipulating the fire and fire-attribute true Qi.

  If an ordinary person from his previous life saw this, they would surely exclaim, "An old immortal!"

  He practiced all four styles of the fist technique together, and the proficiency level on the panel refreshed constantly.

  It only slowed down after reaching mastery, but it still jumped every ten minutes—incredibly fast.

  This is how powerful he is after his comprehension of the Five Elements Fist has improved significantly.

  While practicing his punches, Meng Chuan thought to himself,

  "With my current understanding of the Five Elements martial arts, especially the fire element, even if I only practice second-rate punches, it should only take me about a month.

  I can find time to try out the [Molten Core Flame Burst Fist] true skill that Professor Li taught me."

  Although it's only a low-level true skill, its power is still incomparable to ordinary martial arts.

  Moreover, this punching style is particularly well-suited to his martial arts training.

  Presumably, once he masters it and gets into position, its power will be stronger than other low-level true skills.

  "At that time, I can also see what level of trait the low-level true skill breaks through."

  Meng Chuan estimated that it would mostly be a mid-level trait.

  There are also differences in quality among traits of the same level, taking high-level traits as an example.

  After the excitement of just starting out yesterday, he had calmed down now.

  Although the Little Tathagata avatar sounds powerful, Meng Chuan was willing to guarantee that it was definitely not as powerful as Nirvana Transformation.

  The annual "Rebirth Nirvana" alone was enough.

  [Upon suffering fatal injuries, near-death experiences, or severe bodily damage, one can activate "Nirvana," reborn like a phoenix from the ashes, reshaping their physical condition and restoring 60% of their energy and stamina.]

  Unless one breaks through to "immortality" in the future, the status of Nirvana in his heart will never change.

  Similarly, low-level traits need no further explanation.

  There are powerful traits like [Heavy Strike], and weak ones like [Burning Mark], etc.

  , and Meng Chuan hasn't yet accurately determined the strength of traits of the same level.

  However, the traits obtained by breaking through the limits of high-difficulty fist techniques are mostly superior to those of simple fist techniques.

  Therefore, Meng Chuan speculates that if low-level true skills can obtain mid-level traits,

  they should be among the strongest, even stronger than [Hun Tian].

  He then thought,

  "Perhaps the limit-breaking trait of an intermediate-level true skill might also be an intermediate-level trait.

  It's just that the Treasure Appearance Golden Venerable is strong enough to come with an advanced limit-breaking trait."

  Just like the second-rate [Luo Family Eight Extremes] compared to [Hun Tian], it's not only an intermediate-level trait, but also a powerful trait that combines comprehension and practical combat.

  Therefore, it's not certain to infer based on the skill level. Meng Chuan came back to his senses and stopped thinking about it; he would know once he practiced.

  After finishing his breathing exercises, he was about to practice his fist techniques for a while when the phone rang.

  [Haha, Little Meng, it's been a long time since we last contacted each other. How's your martial arts training going?]

  Hearing that cheerful voice, Meng Chuan smiled knowingly:

  [Uncle Long, the police station is busy, so I didn't dare disturb you. I'm doing well lately, making steady progress.]

  [That's good. Do you have any free time lately?]

  [Whatever you need, I'll take care of it!]

  Meng Chuan couldn't forget the giant ape that lifted the roof when he was still weak in martial arts.

  Sergeant Long Jiu had helped him more than once. Given this kindness, he would do anything for Long Jiu, even without a reward.

  [Recently, the Yong'an Demonic Path has shown signs of resurgence. The police investigation revealed that it was started by that damned Summoning Demon Hall.

  They recently established a new "Yong'an Branch," and we uncovered its stronghold today. After a few more days of preparation, we will launch an operation to wipe them out.

  The dispatch department, after posting the task to the Martial Arts Association, was about to issue it to your school, but I stopped them.

  I thought it would suit you well; the reward is generous. Do you have the time?]

  Meng Chuan was overjoyed. It was indeed perfect for him; he was just worried about where to collect "Fear."

  [Thank you, Uncle Long. I have time, but I don't know what the strength requirements are. Currently, within the first limit, I am invincible!]

  [Good lad, you have ambition! You don't need to deal with the high priest of the demonic stronghold; I'll handle it.

  But you are still a newcomer to martial arts, and there are several deputy priests under you who have undergone multiple "sublimations," their strength even surpassing that of first and second limit practitioners.]

  "You alone definitely won't be enough. You can bring along some strong friends.

  Don't worry about the reward; the country will give the maximum reward for combating the demonic path."

  "Understood. I'll call you back tomorrow."

  "Okay, get some sleep, balance work and rest."

  Hanging up, Meng Chuan pondered:

  "Among my strong friends, the Dragon and Tiger brothers, Dragon is strong enough, but Tiger is a bit weak."

  But that's only in comparison to him. Chu Yanhu is also a powerful martial artist from the United University, a graduate of a prestigious martial arts school.

  Compared to ordinary martial artists, he's far superior.

  Thinking this, he made up his mind.

  "The two brothers already agreed, so let's go together."

  He wanted to invite his senior brother, [Crimson Fire Ape Chen Jing], but the other was at a crucial stage of his cultivation, so it was best not to disturb him.

  The next morning, Meng Chuan informed both of the situation, and they were both overjoyed.

  "It's all thanks to you! I didn't expect your connections at the police station to be so strong."

  Meng Chuan smiled but didn't say anything.

  This was all earned through his own fists. If he hadn't completed the previous police station missions so well, Uncle Dragon wouldn't have been able to pull strings for him.

  After returning the call to Chief Long Jiu, a new "Designated" mission appeared on the United University mission panel.

  Upon accepting it, Meng Chuan, as the team leader, had the right to share the mission and thus included the Long Hu brothers.

  [Normal Mission (3/3)]

  [Mission Issuer: Yong'an City Police Department]

  [Mission Objective: Annihilate the Demon Summoning Hall branch, assisting the police department in eliminating or capturing all demonic martial artists.]

  [Mission Time: To be determined by the police station. After accepting the mission, remain within the Wing On area for one week, keep your phone accessible, and be ready to be contacted at any time.]

  [Mission Reward: 1425 academic credits (5% commission). The police station may also provide other rewards, to be determined by them.]

  [Mission Transfer Statement: The university encourages students to participate in practical missions. Those who perform exceptionally well will receive a "Practical Elite" rating (recorded in their files) and priority recommendations for high-difficulty, high-reward missions.]

Chapter 328 The True Essence of Martial Arts, Molten Core Explosion!

  Chapter 328 Martial Arts True Essence, Molten Core Explosion! This

  was Meng Chuan's first time accepting a transfer mission at the Martial Arts Master level.

  Seeing the final statement, he suddenly understood.

  No wonder Senior Chen Jing rarely paid attention to the mission system,

  yet always managed to quickly receive high-reward missions when he needed credits.

  It turned out he possessed the United University's "Mission Recommendation Right."

  As long as he continued to accumulate practical experience, he could also obtain this privilege like Chen Jing in the future.

  This book is first published online by 𝕥𝕨𝕜𝕒𝕟.𝕔𝕠𝕞.

  Coming to their senses, the Dragon and Tiger brothers also finished reading the mission, their expressions quite surprised.

  "Wow, the rewards are quite generous, so many credits!"

  Chu Yanhu laughed:

  "Adding the rewards from the Demonic Path Disciple and the police station, I'll give you an estimate, a hundred million!"

  "...You're overthinking it."

  Meng Chuan shook his head. Such high-reward missions, without a second or even third level of strength, were unthinkable.

  Of course, unless you encounter a "fortuitous encounter" during a mission.

  There are stories of people getting rich overnight, but they're rare.

  Meng Chuan had done many police station missions before. He discussed the mission details with the two men while heading to Wude Tower.

  Master Chen had posted in the group yesterday that she would be explaining the principles of True Kung Fu today.

  Meng Chuan was preparing to begin his training and couldn't miss it.

  Wude Tower, classroom C985.

  Chen Qiushui arrived early today. Seeing Meng Chuan enter, she teased,

  "Oh, a rare guest! It's been so long since you've come to listen to martial arts principles. I thought you'd already mastered them all." "

  This student's skills are still shallow; I need to learn more,"

  Meng Chuan replied. He wondered if Master Chen still harbored resentment because of his past, subtle rejections of Meng Jiaolong.

  "Alright, sit down. It seems you're preparing to learn True Kung Fu.

  True Kung Fu is difficult to cultivate, requiring high comprehension and understanding of martial arts principles. Listen carefully to my explanation."

  Chen Qiushui wasn't so petty; she naturally understood the unspoken meaning in Meng Chuan's words.

  This kid is good in every way, but it's my daughter's fault for not being lucky enough to have him.

  Seeing that most of the people who were supposed to be there had arrived, Chen Qiushui didn't wait any longer and began the lesson.

  Meng Chuan listened intently, and saw her lightly tap the podium with her fingers as she spoke:

  "To accommodate those who haven't started cultivating yet, I'll start with its essence.

  The biggest difference between true martial arts and ordinary martial arts lies in the condensation of the [True Essence of Martial Arts].

  This is why I suggest that if you can't reach the point of self-enlightenment of the True Essence of Martial Arts at a lower level, you shouldn't consider copying the manuals, but instead focus on cultivating the original true martial arts available at the United University."

  Then, Meng Chuan saw a wisp of green light rise from her palm:

  "What is the true essence of martial arts? Various techniques have their own interpretations, but they are all based on the precise paths left behind by the creators or improvers of each method. Only one can be verified; the rest are merely imprints.

  For example, my Azure Sky Force requires specific rules to guide internal energy, coordinating with the trajectory of the fist to form a cyclical imprint in the meridians.

  This entire complete and correct process is its true essence of martial arts.

  It is also the key point lacking in the imprint.

  Only by comprehending this essence and then unleashing it can one achieve power far exceeding that of ordinary fist techniques."

  Meng Chuan nodded involuntarily. Master Chen's explanation was simple and easy to understand; he understood.

  The true essence of martial arts, when explained thoroughly, is a "shortcut" for martial artists to learn fist techniques when their understanding of martial arts principles is insufficient.

  If you are a naturally gifted genius, you can directly learn from the imprint and comprehend it on your own, which is fine.

  But currently, he is probably not qualified.

  In the future, as his comprehension qualities accumulate and he practices more and his understanding of martial arts principles deepens, he might be able to comprehend it on his own.

  Shaking his head, he came back to his senses and continued listening to the lecture.

  "Another major difference between true martial arts and ordinary martial arts is that it doesn't teach you how to 'fight,' but rather how to better unleash your power.

  This highlights the importance of the true essence of martial arts; techniques are merely the vehicle, while the true essence is the soul.

  Without cultivating the original principles and being unable to comprehend them on your own, even ten years of practice will only result in a superficial understanding.

  Take, for example, the perfected martial arts technique I currently possess, such as the advanced true skill, the 'Cloud Abyss Soaring Fist.'

  Its true essence lies in 'transforming clouds into blades and condensing abyss into power.' It

  appears light and agile like drifting clouds, but in reality, it conceals a heavy force as deep as the ocean."

  "If you only learn the rubbings, the fist techniques will merely resemble fleeting shadows, unable to condense true energy into a burst of explosive potential, leaving only a fraction of its power."

  Meng Chuan was so engrossed in the lecture that an hour passed without him realizing it.

  "Remember, cultivating true skill is like a craftsman carving jade; a slight error can lead to a huge mistake.

  Alright, class dismissed."

  Chen Qiushui finished speaking and left, leaving everyone in the classroom to ponder.

  She had other matters to attend to in the fist technique research room, so she didn't leave time for a Q&A session.

  Hua Qingchi.

  After leaving Wude Tower and returning to his dormitory, Meng Chuan went to see Qi Shuai again.

  After calming down, he sat cross-legged on the ground, studying the [Molten Core Flame Burst Fist] while regulating his breathing.

  Time passed, and after half an hour, he vaguely grasped the so-called true essence between the lines.

  He tried practicing a couple of moves, but ultimately gave up.

  He pondered,

  "It's quite difficult, mainly because I haven't practiced true martial arts. I should find a teacher to guide me through the basics, lest I go astray.

  I wonder if Master Lu understands fire element; if he can teach me, I can save some credits."

  True martial arts instruction isn't cheap, and Meng Chuan is currently a bit poor, so he naturally wants to save money wherever possible.

  With his current understanding of martial arts, Meng Chuan estimated that he could learn even a first-rate Five Elements Fist on his own, without needing instruction. He could also

  master second-rate or lower Xingyi Fist from other schools without a problem, and even first-rate ones could be easily learned in half an hour.

  However, the difference between ordinary martial arts and true martial arts is incomparable.

  He glanced at the other book in his hand, [Five Thunderbolts], as if reading a heavenly book.

  "Master Chen is right; true martial arts isn't just teaching me how to punch, it's more like guiding me on how to punch with greater power."

  He contacted Master Lu by phone and arranged to meet him the next morning. If Master Lu

  could teach him, he would; if not, he would recommend him to a friend.

  "Master Lu has a wide network of connections,"

  Meng Chuan thought

  to himself as he practiced his stance. Master Dong was the one who recommended him.

  Before going to bed that night, Meng Chuan checked his bank account and found another transfer of ten million from a short video platform.

  Adding the monthly salary from the martial arts school, his bank account balance had risen back to sixty million.

  Browsing through the news, Meng Chuan didn't see any news about Yong'an Demonic Path, not even a hint of it.

  This was to avoid alerting them and to wipe out the newly established branch of the Demon Summoning Hall in one fell swoop.

  "It feels like Chief Long has also grown a lot."

  Although Long Jiu held the position of chief, he was mostly the police station's brute force.

  After several incidents in Yong'an City, Meng Chuan felt that Chief Long had become much smarter in terms of strategy.

  "Don't think about it, I'm too worried about the martial arts master. Go to sleep, I'll learn real skills tomorrow morning!"

  Meanwhile, in the early hours of the morning.

  At a hidden stronghold on the outskirts of Yong'an.

  After enjoying the nourishment from the Whispers of the Mountains, "Lin Yue" wiped his mouth and left satisfied.

  As the deputy priest, he was second only to the chief priest in the Yong'an stronghold, above hundreds of others.

  With so many people running errands for him, Lin Yue finally understood the pleasant feeling of the whispering mountains.

  Coming back to his senses, he saw the chief priest answering the phone beside him, his face extremely ugly.

  He was also shouting "Spare me!" from time to time.

  "..."

  He pretended to walk away nonchalantly, while the mycelium in the crack in the wall perked up its "ears".

  [Useless! You motherfucker, the stronghold just started and there are already problems!]

  [My lord, spare me! I really don't know why the nutrients have shrunk, the amount is clearly enough.]

  [Enough your motherfucker! I don't care about anything else, the venerable god has already sent down lightning, the previous shortfall must be made up within this month!

  If you can't do it, I'll use you to fill it.]

  Hearing this, "Lin Yue" had a sly smile on his lips.

  It seems that it won't be long before he has a chance to be promoted to [High Priest]

  . The next morning, Meng Chuan was in the courtyard, practicing boxing while waiting for Master Lu.

  A moment later, Lu Zhuxiao pushed open the door and entered.

  Before speaking, he stopped to watch Meng Chuan practice his boxing.

  Sharp, explosive sounds occasionally echoed in the air. Lu Zhuxiao thought to himself,

  "This kid's Five Elements Fist is truly beautiful. Although it's all third-rate, it has that certain something!"

  After an incense stick's time, seeing Meng Chuan stop to meditate, he smiled and said,

  "Seeing that your Five Elements Fist foundation is so good, I have confidence.

  I specialize in metal, so teaching you fire-attribute true skills might be a bit difficult, but guiding you into the basics shouldn't be a problem."

  Meng Chuan smiled and handed him a can of beer, then demonstrated the [Molten Core Flame Burst Fist] to Master Lu.

  Lu Zhuxiao took it, saying suspiciously,

  "You must have been hanging out with Old Dong for too long and become addicted

  . Although alcohol can't affect a martial artist at all, it can easily lead to mistakes, remember that."

  "No, Master Lu, it's just been hot lately, I'm just cooling off."

  Meng Chuan wasn't addicted at all; he just wanted to help deal with the truckload of drinks that Master Dong couldn't finish.

  He doesn't usually buy it; he drinks it if someone gives it to him, and he doesn't drink it if they don't.

  Lu Zhuxiao studied it for a moment, while Meng Chuan continued practicing his boxing.

  After a short while, Master Lu spoke up:

  "Alright, come on. Professor Li gave you this boxing technique, which indeed follows the 'Thunder and Fire Mutual Generation' route.

  Just as it says, 'Thunder explodes, igniting the heart fire,' its power surpasses ordinary low-level true martial arts techniques; it truly lives up to its imposing name."

  Lu Zhuxiao hadn't practiced the Five Elements Universe Fist, so he naturally didn't know that the Molten Core Flame Explosion Fist was the name given by King Xiang for the fist technique that channeled the power of the heart fire.

  "You have Professor Li's Five Elements Fist foundation, and since it's a modern style of boxing, it's not as obscure and difficult to understand as ancient martial arts, so practicing it won't be too difficult.

  Try to grasp the true essence according to the original text, and I'll guide you from the side."

  Meng Chuan nodded and smiled,

  "Master Lu, do you want to practice together?"

  "Haha, I'll pass, you practice yours.

  I'm supplementing with Wood Element Long Fist, but I don't have your comprehension; I'll bite off more than I can chew."

  "Alright."

  After saying that, Meng Chuan began to practice the fist according to the technique.

  Concentrating his mind and gathering his energy, after memorizing all the key points of the movements, he slowly assumed the starting stance while pondering the true essence.

  "Pay attention to the resonance between your fist techniques and internal energy. First, gather the power of your inner fire, then divert some of that fire to regulate the thunder.

  Comprehend the true essence, as the thunder and fire circulate within your meridians, forming an internal cycle."

  Hearing Master Lu's guidance, Meng Chuan nodded silently.

  He practiced his fist techniques while carefully sensing the true essence within.

  In a daze, his seemingly haphazard practice actually felt increasingly smooth.

Chapter 329 Panel Unveiled: Three Forms Missing from the Fist!

  Chapter 329 Panel Unveiled, Three Forms Missing

  in the Fist! This is the Five Elements Fist's comprehension quietly unfolding.   The effect of

   super-smooth comprehension is self-evident, especially when entering the path of cultivation or hitting a bottleneck; it's like divine assistance.   As long as the true essence is present, he won't take detours or go astray.   With comprehension online, the key points that are hard to understand will be understood through persistent thought.   Feeling almost there, he'll master it through persistent practice.   This is exactly the case now, time slowly passing in the midst of fist and footwork.   Inside the courtyard.   Due to the continuous surging of thunder and fire energies contained in Meng Chuan's fist techniques, the surrounding temperature slowly rises.   Lu Zhuxiao wiped the sweat from his forehead, offered a few pointers, and nodded slightly.   "This scorching scene is already taking shape.   I didn't expect this kid to have such a good comprehension of the Five Elements Fist; I hadn't noticed it before."   [Intent] is an advancement of [Momentum], an exclusive ability of Xingyi martial arts masters.   Although Lu Zhuxiao hasn't reached that level yet, he's working towards it, so it's immediately apparent.   At this moment, Meng Chuan's entire mind is immersed in the fist technique, unaware of Lu Zhuxiao's thoughts.   This is because his comprehension is constantly improving.   This growth is indeed beyond others' expectations.   The tree canopy peeking through the outer wall is already curled up from the steam.   The temperature is rising higher and higher, but Lu Zhuxiao remains unmoved, watching every change in Meng Chuan.   He can feel that this kid's fist technique is getting better and better.   Just as he's about to encourage him, he sees Meng Chuan's fist technique suddenly change, so he swallows back the words he was about to say.   "It seems this kid has grasped it."   "Grasp it" means to have comprehended the true essence of the fist technique, a sign that he's about to enter the gate.   The fiery true energy within Meng Chuan's body suddenly solidified, transforming from billowing flames into a concentrated mass. It gathered   power, like molten lava erupting!   Each punch seemed to collect, condense, and compress the fire energy of heaven and earth into a single point at the tip of his fist, unleashing a burst of flame!

  His eyes gleamed, his mind completely absorbed in the true essence of the fist technique:

  the technique described as the [Molten Core Flame Burst Fist] was derived from the Five Elements Universe Fist.

  Its foundation also incorporated modern technology, making it a product of a standard modern fist technique research lab.

  As a low-level true skill, it contained six forms:

  the Molten Core Starting Move – [Sparkling Wildfire], the Earth Vein Eruption – [Lava Piercing], [Exploding Flame Chain], [Crimson Serpent Lock], the ultimate move [Setting Sun Strike], and the final recovery move [Heart Fire Returns to its Source].

  After completing a round, aside from the stumbles during the ultimate move, the movements were connected seamlessly.

  However, Meng Chuan felt no joy, only a slight unease.

  He felt that a few moves were missing.

  Martial arts moves are continuous, executed smoothly, rather than requiring a change in stance after the punch.

  He felt that the moves, like Lava Piercing and Exploding Flame Chain, lacked a control-like technique.

  Meng Chuan practiced it again, but his doubts only increased.

  The Crimson Serpent Lock followed by the Falling Sun Strike, in combat terms, was a combination of entangling control and then a powerful critical strike.

  Nothing was missing, but the other moves felt increasingly off .

  The true essence of martial arts was absent; the six consecutive moves could be chained together normally.

  However, his mind and body kept telling him that something was wrong.

  This was due to martial arts principles, or rather, his considerable comprehension of the Five Elements Fist.

  He had "comprehended" it, but something was lacking!

  After practicing it again, he sensed he had entered the basics of the technique. Looking at the panel

  , Lu Zhuxiao clapped his hands and laughed,

  "It's done!"

  Looking at the panel information, Meng Chuan wasn't as happy as Master Lu.

  It was done, but not completely .

  [Fist Technique]

  [Molten Core Flame Explosion Fist - Fragment: Beginner (1%) Awaiting Breakthrough]

  [Breakthrough Trait: ?]

  "Technique Completeness: 66%"

  Meng Chuan frowned, repeatedly pondering whether he had made a mistake during practice.

  Lu Zhuxiao noticed his unusual behavior and, though surprised, stood quietly to the side without disturbing him.

  While reviewing the manual, he repeatedly reviewed his initial learning process in his mind.

  He suddenly felt it didn't make sense.

  Upon further thought, a flash of insight struck him.

  [This is the complete content of the Molten Core Flame Burst Fist. Take it and study it; consider it my reward for your Martial Arts True Instruction.]

  He thought to himself,

  "Could Professor Li be lying to me? Is this just an incomplete version?

  Or is he also researching it and therefore doesn't know if it's complete?"

  Seeing Meng Chuan deep in thought, Lu Zhuxiao assumed he had another epiphany.

  He quietly left without disturbing him.

  Meng Chuan immediately dismissed the second question.

  A quick review of his memories brought back the words Professor Li had said when he had piqued his interest.

  The professor had concluded that this was a true-level fire-attribute fist technique, not an incomplete version.

  As a Martial Arts Venerable, how could he not understand it with his martial arts principles? Was this a complete version or an incomplete one?

  Meng Chuan didn't believe it.

  Why does this incomplete manual contain the "True Essence of Martial Arts"? Who imprinted it? It's obvious. Even

  during his practice, he could feel something missing in some moves.

  How could a Martial Arts Venerable and the founder of this technique not sense it?

  That doesn't make sense. Although his Five Elements comprehension and fire-attribute martial arts principles have improved significantly recently, they're still not enough to trigger the Fifth Limit.

  "Perhaps... he wants to test me?"

  Why hide it when he can just say so?

  Meng Chuan isn't the naive person he used to be. After a little thought, he sorted things out.

  Li Zhenyue's purpose, in summary, is to "test talent, but without explicitly stating it; there must be ulterior motives."

  Luckily, he has the panel, otherwise he would have truly fallen into his trap.

  He would have practiced diligently, discovered the problem, and then thought he had made improvements to the original technique, going to claim credit.

  Little would he know, it was originally an incomplete manual!

  "No... if I didn't have the panel, I probably wouldn't even have seen him."

  Effort and the panel are both indispensable.

  After thinking it through,

  Meng Chuan simply tossed it aside and turned his attention to the third-rate Five Elements Specialty.   Why bother

  with this incomplete technique when there were countless complete versions available in the Martial Arts Pavilion? The Yong'an Campus of the United University certainly had plenty of low-level original true techniques.   While not everything was available, there were several of each of the five elements.   As a true disciple of Martial Arts, he could easily learn these techniques from their respective teachers without spending many credits, so there was no need to be fixated on this one.   While practicing his punches, he continued to ponder:   "I wonder if that old man tricked me with [Five Thunderbolts]."   Thunder is rare, and there wasn't a second original thunder technique at the intermediate level on the Yong'an Campus.   Thinking this, Meng Chuan felt a pang of reluctance.   He had high hopes for this technique.   Whether used in his true form, activated by the Five Elements Heart Fire,   or used as an [Ancient True Man] employing his Dao Heart, its power was terrifying.   "I'll try to learn the basics first, then I'll know."   Three days later, Meng Chuan finished practicing and stood in front of the mirror admiring himself.   In the mirror, under the warm yellow light, he looked like a large block of tungsten steel.   The veins flowed along the meridians, making his undulating muscles, like mountains, even more ferocious.   With a thought, his body surface flickered with golden dots as he activated the Golden Venerable Treasure Breathing Technique.   [Golden Venerable Treasure Breathing Technique: Beginner (3%) → (4%) Awaiting Breakthrough]   "This technique is indeed difficult to practice. Even with the blessing of the Flower of Flesh [Flesh Wisdom], I can't even achieve 1% proficiency in a day."   The Flower of Flesh mark appeared faintly on his chest as Meng Chuan carefully experienced his physical body.   "There haven't been any changes yet because my physical foundation is relatively high. I'm afraid there won't be any substantial effects before I reach proficiency."   He had expected this. Practicing multiple hard skills is not like stacking sheets of paper one by one, making it higher and higher.   It requires accumulation, a process of quantitative change leading to qualitative change.   "Enough, walking is meditation, sitting is meditation, speech and silence, movement and stillness, all are peaceful."   This is a Buddhist verse that Meng Chuancai learned, speaking of wisdom in daily practice.   There's no need to rush; every action is practice.   At the same time, while reviewing his materials, he also realized something:   the "true body of the Great Tathagata" above the "small illusory body" he had previously imagined   was impossible.   In Buddhism, "illusory" doesn't refer to true or false, but rather to "the temporary aggregation of causes and conditions," all temporary manifestations arising from the convergence of causes and conditions.   The "small illusory body" means the "small" physical body of the Tathagata Buddha manifested in the world, a "manifestation" based on people's imagination.   In terms of characteristics, Meng Chuancai guessed it was an enhancement of a certain power within himself.   The extent of this power would only be known after breaking through limitations.   And "illusory body," in Buddhism, refers to a non-real essence.   If it were the true body of the Great Tathagata,   wouldn't that be equivalent to being possessed, having one's body taken over?   "..." That would be   extremely disrespectful!   Meng Chuan shook his head, trying to clear his mind. He didn't believe in these things, but he respected them.   As for Buddhism, with its various concepts like true body, Dharma body, false body, and incarnation, etc.,   Meng Chuan had spent a lot of time studying them recently, and his head was practically exploding.   Now, he wouldn't get bogged down in the details; he just wanted to understand Buddhist practices, not become a "Buddhist master."   However, he had recently been setting aside about half an hour each day   to learn about Buddhism while watching the news.   He found the principles profound and benefited greatly.   At lunchtime, Meng Chuan's phone vibrated, sending a mission notification.   ["Meng Chuan's team" is requested to assemble at the Yong'an Police Station Operations Department at 3 PM the day after receiving this message.   Please prepare your equipment in advance. If you don't have armor but possess an "Armor Certificate," you can collect temporary military armor from the Equipment Department.]   Meng Chuan put away his phone and calmed himself.   "I won't bring Tiger Soul; just prepare the Bridge Moon and the Ferocious Armor."

  Those demonic leaders who had undergone multiple ascensions were being restrained by Inspector Long Jiu and other powerful officers from the police station.

  Their mission was to "assist."

  Meng Chuan's idea was simple: eliminate all demonic disciples below the first level, providing physical annihilation assistance.

  Now, fully armed, this wasn't difficult for him. After

  dinner, Meng Chuan and the three Long Hu brothers went to Chen Qiushui's office.

  Missions involving Grandmaster-level students required prior notification to the person in charge.

  Inside the office,

  Chen Qiushui reviewed their assignments and stated bluntly:

  "This mission is quite difficult, involving a high-ranking priest of the Summoning Demon Hall who has undergone six ascensions.

  Even with Inspector Long Jiu handling the enemy, the three of you must do one thing: stay away from the battlefield where the two are."

  "Understood!"

  the three replied in unison.
