Chapter 56: Vibrating Armor Technique, Skill Enhancement!?
In the training room, Meng Qingjiao and Chen Fuguang had already left, leaving only Xue Jing and Li Qi.
Li Qi wheeled himself around, making a couple of laps in the training room before speaking in a contemplative tone, "I originally thought that even with your exceptional talent, it would take at least another month for your body to be ready to cultivate the Vibrating Armor Technique."
"But now it seems that your growth rate has once again exceeded my expectations."
"It's time. I shall teach you the Vibrating Armor Technique now."
Xue Jing's spirits lifted at his words.
"Please, Master, teach me!"
Li Qi smiled, "There's no need to rush. The Vibrating Armor Technique is not something that can be mastered overnight like the Coiled Dragon Technique. It requires a lot more than just practicing a few movements."
"Wait here for a moment while I make some arrangements."
Xue Jing nodded.
After Li Qi left, Xue Jing took out his phone and noticed a message from his sister, Xue Wan.
Xue Wan: [Picture]
Xue Jing opened the message to find a photo, seemingly taken by Xue Wan herself, at a large sports arena. The perspective was from the audience seats, packed with a sea of spectators, all focused on the central stage.
Due to the distance, only two individuals could be clearly seen on the stage, but four large screens above the arena displayed a close-up view of the stage.
Two very young men were entangled in a fierce battle, and the surrounding area was littered with cracks and craters, a result of their intense combat—a scene hard to believe was caused by just two humans.
Xue Wan: Live at the U19 Martial Arts Tournament~ The two on the stage are the same age as you. How do martial artists train to reach such levels? They're simply not human.
Xue Jing smiled and typed a response.
Xue Jing: They're just okay. If they punched me, I wouldn't even flinch.
Xue Wan: If your intention was to use this old joke to make me laugh, then I must say, you've failed miserably.
Xue Jing: Hehe, so it didn't count as a laugh?
The siblings chatted for a while longer before Xue Wan sent another photo.
This photo was of a strange middle-aged woman. She appeared to be sitting next to Xue Wan, her gaze calmly fixed on the intense battle unfolding on the stage, seemingly unaffected by the excitement around her, which contrasted sharply with the enthusiastic audience.
The woman had an ordinary appearance, but what was peculiar was her hair—it was a dark shade of green, styled in what looked like dreadlocks, resembling vines hanging from her head. Adorning her hair were several flowers of different colors.
Xue Wan: This is my university horticulture professor. Pretty fashionable, huh?
Xue Jing's fingers paused as he studied the photo carefully.
For some reason, he felt that there was something odd about the middle-aged woman in the photo.
Just as he was about to reply, Xue Wan sent another message.
Xue Wan: I got caught taking the photo... Let's chat later, my professor is scolding me.
Xue Jing replied with a nodding emoji and put down his phone.
After a while, the door to the cultivation room opened, and Li Qi wheeled himself back in.
In his hand was a strange object that resembled a white thermos connected to an oxygen mask.
Xue Jing asked curiously, "Master, what is that?"
Li Qi held up the object and explained, "This is a nebulizer. It turns medicinal liquid into particles smaller than 1 micron..."
"Just put it on, and you'll see." He handed the nebulizer to Xue Jing.
Xue Jing took the nebulizer from Li Qi and examined it for a moment before putting on the oxygen mask and securing it with an elastic band around the back of his head, making him look rather odd.
"In martial arts, each sect has its own secret blood purification technique," Li Qi said in a casual tone. "With the advancement of technology, it's now easier to train, and even the ancient blood purification methods have evolved. Take this nebulizer, for instance..."
"I've infused our Canglong style's secret medicine into this device, which turns the medicinal liquid into particles smaller than one micron," he continued. "When you wear it, the medicine is nebulized and can enter your bloodstream through the alveoli in your lungs. With the right breathing technique, the medicinal power will permeate and cleanse your blood, reaching even your brain, organs, and marrow."
"This method of absorption is far more efficient than ingesting the medicine, wasting almost none of its power."
Li Qi sighed, "This is one of the scientific martial arts training methods developed by the large corporations in the Inner Ring City. It renders all the old methods obsolete, forcing even the most stubborn martial artists to adopt these 'unorthodox' techniques."
Intrigued, Xue Jing curiously inspected the nebulizer in his hands, shaking it gently and hearing the liquid inside slosh around.
"The Vibrating Armor Technique is a dynamic stance with five sets of movements, each corresponding to the skin, flesh, tendons, bones, and blood, as well as our Canglong style's five killer moves," Li Qi explained. "Today, I'll teach you the first set of movements, which is for training the skin!"
Without further ado, Li Qi grabbed Xue Jing's wrist and, with a flick of his wrist, sent a powerful and refined force surging into Xue Jing's body, causing him to involuntarily execute various movements.
As he progressed through the first movement, Xue Jing's skin began to tingle as if he were being electrocuted, his pores standing on end and an unbearable stinging sensation spreading throughout his body.
At the end of the movement, his entire body trembled violently, like a true dragon shaking its armor, its body shimmering as if every scale were vibrating. Amidst the intense pain and tingling, he felt a strange sense of exhilaration that made him want to shout out loud.
The second movement followed, and the tingling and pain became even more unbearable. At the end of this movement, his body trembled once more.
Then came the third, fourth...
Each subsequent movement was far more challenging than the last. By the time he finished all twenty-seven movements, Xue Jing couldn't help but kneel on the ground, his body convulsing in pain, tears welling up in his eyes.
This was the... Vibrating Armor Technique!
Far more difficult than the Coiled Dragon Technique, even with Xue Jing's current physical condition, he could barely withstand practicing just the first set of movements once.
His skin felt like it was on fire and being electrocuted at the same time, as if countless needles were piercing every pore in his body. Yet, amidst the pain, he also felt a sense of comfort emanating from his skin, like a drought-stricken tree suddenly revitalized, bringing a strange sense of relief.
Xue Jing opened the panel, intending to check the effects of his Vibrating Armor Technique training, but a prompt suddenly appeared.
[Detected "Fitness" enhancement conditions...]

Xue Jing was taken aback, momentarily forgetting the pain throughout his body as he quickly sat up.
Skill enhancement!?
