Teng Qingshan!

Teng Qingshan!

Gu Shaoshang reopened the Myriad Heavens Projection Mirror!

With his first experience behind him, Gu Shaoshang was not nearly as nervous this time.

He calmly opened the projection interface and selected the Myriad Heavens Projection Pool!

Myriad Heavens Projection Pool

Select to activate (cannot exceed the Myriad Heavens Mirror's current level)

Please enter the selected person's world, name, age, and deeds

Activate at random. Please select a star rating (cannot exceed the Myriad Heavens Projection Mirror's current level!)

Gu Shaoshang ran through the process in his mind and found no loopholes.

"I choose—"

"Nine Provinces World of the Nine Cauldrons Chronicle World!"

"Teng Qingshan!"

"Age: three!"

"Master of the Xingyi Sect, Supreme Expert of the Nine Cauldrons World! Shattering the Void!"

Heavenly Emperor Ye had only risen to prominence as an adult, gradually becoming an unparalleled powerhouse! As a child, he possessed neither cultivation techniques nor treasures!

But Teng Qingshan was different! He had reincarnated into the Nine Provinces World with his memories intact. From birth, he had been a Grandmaster Realm expert in Internal Martial Arts! A master who had reached the pinnacle of Internal Martial Arts!

Selection complete. Beginning projection!

The projection mirror bloomed with purple light in the air, connecting to the Nine Cauldrons Chronicle World!

Nine Cauldrons Chronicle World, Nine Provinces World, Yangzhou, Yicheng, Great Yan Mountain, Teng Family Manor!

On the Teng Family Manor training ground, several hundred men, drenched in sweat and bare-chested, held long spears as they practiced thrusting!

"Head level, shoulders level, spear level, feet level, body level!" A lean middle-aged spear instructor prowled through the field, shouting loudly! Whenever he spotted a man whose movements fell short, he gave him a flying kick!

A group of children stood at the edge of the training ground, their eyes wide as they watched, occasionally crying out in surprise!

Among them, a child of around three stood at the edge with a smile on his face, watching.

"Shaking the Great Spear! Middle-Level Thrust! Those two moves are enough to practice for a lifetime."

"Wow!"

"What beautiful purple light!"

"Look! It's flying toward us!"

Purple light spread from the horizon toward Teng Family Manor, even blotting out the noonday sun!

The children had especially sharp eyes and immediately began shouting!

The men practicing spearwork could not help but stop and watch. The purple light descended, shooting directly onto a child at the edge of the field!

"Qingshan!"

"Yongfan's boy!"

"Let's take a look!"

Spear instructor Teng Yongxiang ran out of the training ground with a long spear in hand.

The purple light vanished the moment it touched him, revealing Teng Qingshan's stunned face.

"White Horse Lake: Battle at the Peak" recorded that when Supreme Expert Teng Qingshan was born, Purple Qi Comes from the East stretched for thirty thousand li!

Heaven and earth celebrated his birth!

"The Shrouding the Heavens World, the Nine Cauldrons Chronicle World, even every novel and mythological world from my previous life! Sooner or later, I will set foot in each of them! I will truly fight the experts of the myriad heavens and Project Myriad Heavens!"

Gu Shaoshang could barely contain himself!

Myriad Heavens Projections: 2! Activated! Once per day, cannot stack!

Within the purple light, a handsome little boy with red lips, white teeth, and delicate features gradually appeared!

Teng Qingshan: Age: three

Cultivation: None. Evaluation: Zero-Star Level, ordinary

Drops: Zero-Star "Assassin Training," Zero-Star secret manual "Yoga Technique," Zero-Star Level "Firearm Mastery," Zero-Star Level "Wilderness Survival," Zero-Star Level "Horse Stance," Zero-Star Level "Sanda," Zero-Star Level "Flying Dagger Technique," Zero-Star Level "Basic Spear Techniques," one-and-a-half-star secret manual "Xingyi Quan," two-star secret manual "Journey to the Horizon," pebbles, cotton clothes...

Combat power: 1

Begin battle?

Yes, No

"It really works!" The weight in Gu Shaoshang's heart finally lifted, and he let out a long breath!

If his soul had not continuously grown stronger during the ten years the Myriad Heavens Projection Mirror had been bound to it, how could he possibly remember a novel from his previous life so clearly?

The Myriad Heavens Projection Mirror, along with ten years of novel reading from his previous life, was his greatest cheat!

"Based on my memories from my previous life, I entered at a point when Teng Qingshan had not yet started practicing Xingyi Quan! At most, he had some foundation in yoga, yet his combat power had already reached one?"

Gu Shaoshang clicked his tongue in amazement. This "one" represented the combat power an ordinary eighteen-year-old from his previous life, someone unfamiliar with martial arts, could attain!

A baby was counted as one year old at birth. Strictly speaking, three-year-old Teng Qingshan had not even been born for eight hundred days! Yet he already possessed an adult's combat power! The awareness of a Xingyi Quan grandmaster truly was formidable!

Since arriving in this world, aside from his gravely ill father, the people Gu Shaoshang had interacted with most were a group of youngsters no older than twelve or thirteen. The most talented among them was his cousin, Gu Shaoze!

Exceptionally gifted! At ten, he possessed tremendous strength exceeding five hundred jin! At twelve, he had reached the second stage of the Five Stages of Foundation Establishment, Tough Skin Like A Drum—a genius youngster! Even at the age of three, it would have been impossible for him to possess combat power of one!

Five Stages of Foundation Establishment!

"Integrated Strength: once perfected, one can mobilize all the muscles in the body and strike with one's full strength with a casual punch!"

"Tough Skin Like A Drum! The skin and membranes throughout the body surge and tremble, weakening incoming damage. At perfection, one's body is like it is clad in cowhide, possessing the Strength of One Ox! One can shake and drag objects weighing a thousand jin!"

"Tendons Like Taut Strings: all the body's major tendons tighten like bowstrings. Striking someone is like drawing a bow; being struck is like being hit by an arrow!"

"Bones Forged Like Steel: the bones throughout the body gradually strengthen, greatly increasing penetrating power. At perfection, one can withstand immense force, and blades and axes can scarcely injure one!"

"Mercury-Blood Refinement: fist techniques penetrate deep into the bones and marrow, and the blood throughout the body gradually transforms. At perfection comes Rebirth and Transformation, with blood like mercury!" An ordinary person might practice martial arts for ten years without breaking through the Integrated Strength stage. Reaching the second stage at twelve was the mark of a genius!

Gu Shaoshang's emotions surged and ebbed.

"Begin battle!"

Please select a battle environment!

Currently available: martial arena, forest, desert

"Martial arena!"

"Whoosh!"

The Myriad Heavens Projection Mirror rose high into the air, and purple light enveloped everything. Gu Shaoshang felt a moment of dizziness.

The next instant, the blazing sun hung high overhead, and he appeared atop a massive martial arena! Three-year-old Teng Qingshan, dressed in cotton clothes, stood facing him!

Gu Shaoshang was startled. He slowly assumed the opening stance of Tiger Roar Fist, marveling inwardly, This is truly unbelievable! It feels as though I've entered a real world!

Teng Qingshan's face was expressionless, as if he possessed only the instinct to fight! The moment Gu Shaoshang took his stance, he suddenly stepped forward!

Bang!

Gu Shaoshang pressed down with his palm, blocking the punch.

Just as expected! He's far weaker than me!

He immediately stepped forward into a bow stance and drove a fierce punch at Teng Qingshan. Teng Qingshan twisted his body!

Both hands caught Gu Shaoshang's right arm, and a whipping kick whistled into the outside of Gu Shaoshang's thigh!

Gu Shaoshang's right arm trembled and slipped free like a loach.

Fierce Tiger Climbing the Mountain!

Gu Shaoshang first retreated, then leaped forward, his muscles twisting throughout his body! His elbows, like steel spears, smashed down viciously between Teng Qingshan's chest and abdomen! It was a move from Tiger Roar Fist!

Crack!

A sound like bones breaking rang out. Teng Qingshan collapsed, then turned into purple light and scattered!

The next instant, Gu Shaoshang found himself back in the world of his consciousness.

"Just as I thought! Teng Qingshan at this point in time can be defeated!"

Gu Shaoshang gently rubbed the thigh Teng Qingshan had kicked, deep in thought.

"That Teng Qingshan just now seemed to have suddenly gained a physical body. There was no way to tell that he was merely a projection! He was in the same state I am now! Just what is the origin of the Myriad Heavens Projection Mirror? How can it possess such unimaginable power?"

Gu Shaoshang clenched his fists, relaxed them, clenched them again, then relaxed them again. After repeating this several times, he took a deep breath.

"Let's look at the rewards first!"

Catching the descending projection mirror, Gu Shaoshang examined it.

The Mirror Master's battle against Myriad Heavens Projection Teng Qingshan: victory!

Drop: "Horse Stance," Source Power 0.1. Extract?

"...Extract."

Gu Shaoshang gritted his teeth.

"Horse Stance" requires 1 point of Source Power to materialize. Insufficient Source Power! Materialization failed! Transferred to warehouse! Source Power 0.1 extracted!

"..."

Only after a long while did Gu Shaoshang realize that even after activating the projection mirror, he could not instantly rise to the heavens and crush the entire universe.

Once his mood calmed, he swept away his distracting thoughts and casually opened the mirror's status.
