Chapter 69: Meng Chong: The Mahavairocana Golden Bell Cloak is Too Powerful
Chapter 69: Meng Chong: The Mahavairocana Golden Bell Cloak is Too Powerful
The Innate Realm is a realm beyond the mortal realm, appearing godlike in the eyes of ordinary people. With a lifespan of a thousand years, it is still within a reasonable range.
Inhaling and exhaling the heavenly and earthly spiritual energy, the Innate True Qi is endless, and thus, a long lifespan is naturally extraordinary.
If one has a Jade Bone constitution as their foundation for the Innate Realm, their lifespan will naturally be even longer.
Li Xuan was thrilled. What is the fundamental reason for cultivating the martial way? It is to become powerful and to achieve immortality!
This is the ultimate significance of the martial path.
"I have now entered the initial stages of the Innate Realm, and the Innate True Qi feels boundless. I already possess the martial technique for the Innate Realm, so the next step is to create a technique for the realm beyond Innate."
"I must establish the realm and ensure a smooth transition from the Innate Realm to create a complete system."
Li Xuan was exhilarated.
His disciples were truly outstanding!
"Xu Yan hasn't broken through to the Innate Realm yet, so he doesn't understand its mysteries. Even if I create a technique beyond the Innate Realm for him now, he won't be able to comprehend it."
"It should be impossible to comprehend a technique that transcends one's current realm."
Li Xuan fell into deep thought.
Therefore, the technique beyond the Innate Realm would have to wait until Xu Yan broke through to the Innate Realm before he could hope to comprehend it.
Even if one comprehends the technique of the Innate Realm without having personally experienced the transformations of the Innate Realm, it would be impossible to use that as a foundation to comprehend the technique of the realm beyond Innate.
However, he could now start preparing to create the technique for the next realm.
"With Xu Yan's cultivation speed, it will take about a month for his qi and blood to reach perfection. Breaking through to the Innate Realm will also take some time, but within two months, Xu Yan should be able to reach the Innate Realm!"
Just thinking about it filled Li Xuan with anticipation.
Once Xu Yan broke through to the Innate Realm, he would gain feedback from the Golden Finger, allowing him to instantly achieve Great Perfection in the Innate Realm!
"It's time to create the technique for the next realm! Let's get to work!"
Li Xuan was invigorated.
...
Meng Chong had reached the Copper Bone stage of his tempering process, and he could feel his own strength. His physical body felt as though it were covered by a golden bell; clenching his fist, he felt that he could easily kill a top expert in the martial world with a single punch.
If he had possessed this strength back then, he wouldn't have had to take the risk of assassinating Emperor Wu to get his revenge.
"Shi Er, come here!"
Meng Chong called out.
"Young Master Meng, what are your orders?"
Shi Er asked with a smile.
After these days of hard cultivation, he had finally gained some insight into the initial stage of Refining Skin, and he was thrilled.
"Come, hit me with a punch!"
Meng Chong patted his chest.
"Ah?"
Shi Er was a little stunned.
"Why are you spacing out? Come on, hit me with a punch!"
Meng Chong urged.
"Isn't that... not good?"
Shi Er hesitated.
What if he ended up injuring Meng Chong?
"Do you think you can injure me? Stop wasting time and hurry up!"
Meng Chong gave him a disdainful look.
"Alright then!"
Shi Er took a deep breath and stepped forward, throwing a punch at Meng Chong's chest.
Bang!
In that moment, Shi Er felt as though he had punched a mountain. His fist stung, and there was some backlash that made his arm go numb.
"Is that it? Use your full strength!"
Meng Chong felt that this punch was so weak that it didn't even tickle.
"Okay, here I come again!"
Shi Er focused his eyes, let out a loud shout, and threw another punch at Meng Chong's chest with all his might.
This punch was thrown with his full strength.
He was, after all, a top expert in the martial world, having cultivated the Power Skill to a high level.
A full-strength punch from him could split open boulders.
However, when it landed on Meng Chong's chest, it still felt like punching a mountain, giving him the illusion of an ant trying to shake a mountain.
The backlash made him stumble back two steps, and his entire arm felt numb and sore.
Gudong!
Was Meng Chong already this strong?
How much time had passed? And yet, he could already completely ignore attacks from a top martial artist?
And yet, this was the result? A top martial artist in the Jianghu, already so weak?
Shi Er was speechless. "That punch was the strongest I've ever thrown in my life."
Meng Chong was thrilled. The Mahavairocana Golden Bell Cloak was indeed powerful!
He pulled out the knife he had stuck into the ground and threw it to Shi Er. "Here, chop me with this!"
"Ah?" Shi Er was stunned, not knowing how to react.
Chop him with a knife? Had Meng Chong cultivated to the point of damaging his own brain? This was a steel blade, sharp enough to cut through flesh and bone. How could anyone withstand it, no matter how strong their body was?
Moreover, Meng Chong hadn't even truly entered the world of martial arts yet, had he?
He was still in the foundational realm, polishing his body, and now he wanted to use his physical body to withstand a steel blade?
"I'm not afraid, so what are you scared of? Come on!" Meng Chong urged.
Shi Er was at a loss for words. You might be fearless, but I am scared! If I injure you, what then?
"You want me to really chop you?" Shi Er still hesitated.
"Come on!" Meng Chong patted his chest.
"Alright then!" Shi Er gripped the steel knife and stepped forward, chopping at Meng Chong's body.
Bang! The sharp blade failed to cut into Meng Chong's flesh.
"Put some force into it!" Meng Chong said, unsatisfied.
Bang! Another chop, but still, Meng Chong's defense held firm, and not even a mark appeared on his body.
"Use your full strength!" Meng Chong took a deep breath, and his body shone like a golden bell, impervious and without flaw.
"Alright!" Shi Er gritted his teeth and brought the knife down on Meng Chong's chest with all his might.
Bang! The steel knife snapped in two, and Shi Er stumbled backward, his hands trembling as he looked at Meng Chong in shock.
There wasn't even a scratch on Meng Chong's chest!
How could his blood and flesh body, hardened through cultivation, withstand the full force of a blow from a top Jianghu martial artist?
It was terrifying!
Meng Chong patted his chest, now confident in his physical defense. With his current level of toughness, he could completely ignore attacks from top martial artists in the Jianghu.
Ordinary steel weapons could no longer harm him.
However, that treasure knife would be a different story!
"Continue cultivating. Strive to refine your body further and soon enter the door of the next realm!" Meng Chong's spirits were high as he threw himself back into his arduous training.
Shi Er, too, was spurred on, and he also began to cultivate fervently.
Li Xuan wandered through Yunshan County when suddenly, a voice caught his attention.
"Young man, I see that your roots are passable. Our encounter is fate, and so I have a martial arts secret manual here that I will sell to you at a bargain!"
The voice sounded familiar.
Li Xuan looked toward the source of the voice and saw an elderly man with white whiskers, dressed in a wide-sleeved robe. He held a yellowing booklet in his hand and was speaking to a young master from a wealthy family.
"Senior, I wish to take you as my master..."
"Your talent is only passable and has not caught my eye. However, our encounter is fate, and I see your sincere heart for the martial path, so I will sell you this martial arts secret manual."
The white-bearded man spoke with an air of superiority. "The way of the martial arts is not to be taken lightly, and secret manuals have their value. I do not seek your money, but it is the rule in the martial world that secret manuals cannot be given away for free!"
The young master from the wealthy family looked disappointed and regretful, but he soon cheered up. Although he had failed to take the elderly man as his master, obtaining a martial arts secret manual made his journey worthwhile.
"Thank you, Senior. I will take this manual."
"Hmm, consider it fate. One hundred taels of silver should suffice."
"Here you are, Senior!"
The young master presented the silver and received the manual.
"Study it well and cultivate diligently!"
The white-bearded man offered some words of encouragement before turning to leave. He soon approached another young master from a wealthy family. "Young man, I see that your roots are passable. Here, I have a martial arts technique..."
Li Xuan: ...
Where did this con artist come from, and how did he find people who actually believed him?
This was outrageous!
