Creating a Martial Cultivation Method

Half an hour later.

After Lin Changqing, Lin Hu, Lin Yongteng, and the others met up at the city gate, they headed straight out of the city and returned to Green Mountain Village.

Meanwhile, inside the Divine Weapon Pavilion.

"Shopkeeper, we lost them..."

Chen San was drinking tea in the backyard when the man hurried over again and said in a deep voice, "That kid is no ordinary fighter. The brothers Du Hu and Du Bao were knocked unconscious in an alley."

"Useless trash!"

Chen San's face darkened. He casually smashed the teacup in his hand onto the floor.

He roared, "You can't even handle such a trivial matter. What use are you..."

"Spare us, Shopkeeper! Please give us some time. We'll definitely uncover that kid's background..."

The man's face immediately turned pale. Almost instinctively, he dropped to his knees with a thud.

He begged loudly for mercy.

He was genuinely afraid. Chen San usually appeared mild and amiable, always smiling like a kindly old man.

But in truth, he was a ruthless man who killed without batting an eye!

Having followed Chen San for years, how could he not know that? If he had knelt even a moment slower just now, he might not have lost his life, but a savage beating would have been unavoidable.

"Hmph..."

Chen San glanced at the man and said coldly, "Find out that kid's identity within ten days. Remember... don't touch him, or you know the consequences."

"Yes, yes..."

The man hurriedly agreed, then turned and left in haste.

Ten days to uncover Lin Changqing's identity was no easy task. He had to get moving immediately.

Otherwise, once the deadline came and he still had nothing to show for it—

Chen San would never spare him.

As for running for his life, that had never crossed his mind.

The Divine Weapon Pavilion was no weak force, and the Chen Family behind it had eyes and hands everywhere. The moment he tried to flee, Chen San would learn of it at once.

When that time came, not only would he die, but so would his family.

By evening.

Lin Changqing and everyone in the caravan finally returned to Green Mountain Village without incident.

After saying goodbye to Lin Hu and the others, Lin Changqing headed straight home.

First, he hid away the chest of gold. Then he took out the medicinal ingredients he had bought and began preparing Returning Origin Powder and Qihuang Black Ginseng Soup.

Lin Changqing had long since thoroughly mastered the medical text Daoist Yunyang had given him.

His medical skills might not yet have been exceptional.

But preparing medicinal powders for a medicinal bath was effortless for him.

"Ten qian of Prunella Spike, three qian of Solomon's Seal, six qian of Earth Immortal Herb..."

Following the prescription's proportions, Lin Changqing carefully prepared the Returning Origin Powder. He did not make much—only three packets, intending to test the effects first.

"A medicinal bath only works best when used after martial arts practice, when the body has reached its limit."

Lin Changqing muttered to himself. Once the medicinal bath was prepared, he slid his feet, and in an instant, he was already in the courtyard.

He began practicing his fist techniques.

He had long since brought the Five Elements Fist to perfection. Every move and stance carried a profound, mysterious essence.

Descending Mountain Tiger, Star Plucking Monkey, Mountain Embracing Bear, Forest Piercing Deer, Heaven Soaring Crane...

They flowed like drifting clouds and running water.

Lin Changqing practiced for two full hours. Once he was completely exhausted, he leaped without hesitation into the medicinal bath he had prepared in advance.

Submerging his entire body in the tub.

Using the power of his mind, he altered his breathing rhythm and prolonged the time he could hold his breath.

If I visualized a mystical turtle, or some other fish, could I breathe freely underwater?

Lin Changqing silently wondered.

At once.

A vast surge of medicinal power flowed into his body through every hair on his skin, tempering every inch of flesh, blood, and skin membrane throughout his body.

"So this is the effect of a medicinal bath? It really is powerful."

Lin Changqing's eyes lit up, and his spirits immediately rose. He could clearly feel his Flesh Body Realm growing stronger.

His flesh, blood, and skin membrane were tempered by a powerful yet gentle energy, undergoing a rebirth.

"Unfortunately, the Five Elements Fist is ultimately just a Health Fist technique. It is already quite remarkable that it allowed me to Enter the Ranks of Martial Dao. Going any further is practically impossible."

Lin Changqing thought to himself, I must create a stronger Martial cultivation method.

I need to further refine the Five Elements Fist.

"The foundation of the Five Elements Fist lies in five forms of martial arts, imitating the movements of five different wild beasts to temper the flesh body.

"In that regard, it shares the same wondrous purpose through different paths as Internal Family Fists such as the Five Animal Frolics from my previous life.

"Perhaps I can draw upon the Internal Family Fists of my previous life, further refine the Five Elements Fist, and create the portion meant for Great Body Realm cultivation..."

The moment the thought arose, he acted upon it.

Lin Changqing had always been a man of action. He immediately focused his mind and began deducing the Five Elements Fist.

If anyone had seen what Lin Changqing was doing at this moment—

They would surely have laughed at his overestimation of himself.

A newcomer who had only just Entered the Ranks of Martial Dao actually wanted to create a Martial cultivation method. It was simply a wild fantasy.

But Lin Changqing was different. In this life, he possessed Heaven-Defying Comprehension.

With no foundation at all, he had been able to create a visualization cultivation method based on the wild ideas and accumulated knowledge from webnovels in his previous life.

Now, with the Five Elements Fist as a reference, deducing a method suited for Great Body Realm cultivation—

It likely would not be difficult.

"Martial Cultivation differs from visualization methods. The first step, the Great Body Realm, uses the power of Qi and Blood to temper flesh, blood, skin membrane, tendons, bones, and internal organs.

"Put plainly, it is a process of Body Tempering.

"Even the subsequent Blood Exchange and Qi Refining are, in truth, methods of further tempering the flesh body through different means.

"Among them, the most fundamental is the essence of the human body.

"Put plainly, it is the power of Qi and Blood.

"In the Great Body Realm, Qi and Blood are the foundation. The stronger one's Qi and Blood, the stronger the flesh body..."

Inside the bath barrel, Lin Changqing carefully contemplated, combining the Five Elements Health Cultivation Fist with the various principles of Internal Family Fists from his previous life as he continuously deduced and refined them.

Although Lin Changqing had never practiced an Internal Family Fist in his previous life.

He had read extensively. He had studied the Book of Changes and Eight Trigrams, Returning to the Hidden Five Elements, and many Internal Family Fist arts.

Much of it had merely been random speculation and fanciful conjecture by others.

But under Lin Changqing's powerful Heaven-Defying Comprehension, all those things that seemed plausible yet elusive, Profound and Mysterious, became soil and nourishment for his deduction of a Martial Cultivation method.

Time passed second by second.

Night shrouded the earth, and Bright Moon Hangs High.

Boom... Bang...

Suddenly!

Lin Changqing, inside the bath barrel, abruptly opened his eyes. He sprang up and rushed out of the room like a tiger or leopard, arriving in the courtyard.

His fists moved as he began practicing.

His fists were like a fierce tiger, his footwork like a dragon.

The fist technique was still the Five Elements Fist, but its Artistic Conception was entirely different.

Every movement engaged the muscles and skin membrane throughout his body.

"No, this punch should not be like this. It should go a little lower. This form should rise a little higher..."

At this moment, Lin Changqing had sunk into an artistic conception that was Profound and Mysterious.

The power of his mind enveloped his entire body. Every time he threw a punch, he could clearly sense its effect on himself.

How effective its tempering was, whether it would leave any hidden dangers.

He understood every minute change perfectly.

Then, based on those changes, he continuously adjusted until he reached the optimal state.

Heaven-Defying Comprehension combined with the power of his mind.

It was simply the ultimate cheat for creating a Martial Cultivation method.
