Flying Skill, them again?

When challenging the Imperial Guard in the third round.

Because of that strange mental attack, which was impossible to guard against, it dragged on for a long time and couldn't break through.

Jiang Fan originally thought that this time, challenging the fourth round would still have a gap in strength, and he had also prepared for multiple challenges.

Unexpectedly, it was only the first attempt, and he succeeded?

Could it be that this time it was because his Blood Essence had accumulated for a long time, and he now possessed the strength to challenge the fourth round?

As Jiang Fan pondered.

On the stage, the Old Beggar's image reappeared.

The martial arts practice time began.

"I have no name and no surname, like duckweed without roots, there's nothing to introduce..."

"So hiccup... I won't talk about it..."

The Old Beggar took a sip of wine.

"I imagine the successor must be very confused about this space!"

"Then I'll tell you what I know!"

Jiang Fan's eyes narrowed, and he concentrated, only to hear the other party continue.

"This space, with the purpose of inheritance... hiccup... naturally it is to continue our human race's cultivation civilization... hiccup!"

"Countless years ago, mountains and rivers were all spiritual and beautiful places, and the Heaven and Earth Energy was abundant. Countless ancestors relied on their perception of natural energy, drew natural energy into their bodies, and embarked on the path of cultivation..."

"Hiccup... They either flew through the sky, or traversed seas of clouds, or changed the world... The human race prospered..."

"Later, an unknown catastrophe descended, and the Heaven and Earth Energy rapidly depleted at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was as if the world had been shackled..."

"... "

"By my generation, there was very little Heaven and Earth Energy left... However, human lifespans are limited..."

"..."

Jiang Fan listened to the Old Beggar's narration, and gradually connected the information he had obtained in the previous rounds.

So...

The purpose of this space's inheritance is to continue the so-called cultivation civilization?

The "heaven and earth cage" mentioned by Fang Jue, Qing Yue, and the Imperial Guard refers to the deficiency of Heaven and Earth Energy?

Because of the deficiency, there isn't enough natural energy to cultivate, and due to the limitation of lifespan, they can't cultivate to higher realms in their lifetime?

Then the purpose of passing down cultivation techniques... is to wait for the recovery of Heaven and Earth Energy? To revive human civilization?

But, in their original world, even without a cultivation civilization, humans lived just fine, didn't they?

Where did the "heaven and earth cage" come from? And what about inheritance?

In comparison, this High-Martial World has abundant Heaven and Earth Energy.

But if, according to them, with enough Heaven and Earth Energy, one can cultivate themselves to a certain realm and gain a longer lifespan, but what is the ultimate goal?

Or, where is the final destination?

Vaguely, Jiang Fan seemed to have grasped something.

He always felt that this matter might not be as simple as the deficiency of Heaven and Earth Energy, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure it out.

After the Old Beggar finished his introduction, it was time to impart the techniques.

"The Sage has passed down the Innate Breathing and Meditation Technique, to draw Heaven and Earth Energy and nourish oneself!"

"However, how to use it to fight was not taught!"

"I, this old man, have studied and pondered a form of energy transmission for my entire life. I call it 'Qi'. 'Qi' is essentially a life energy, converted from natural energy!"

"It can expand one's perception, and also manifest power!"

"Today, I will teach you the Sky Dance Technique and Combat Technique!"

"First, concentrate your mind, draw the Qi in your meridians from your Dantian... guide the Qi to gather in parts of your body..."

Following the Old Beggar's voice, it was as if it was engraved in Jiang Fan's mind. In the blink of an eye, he grasped the essentials of the Sky Dance Technique and Combat Technique.

The Sky Dance Technique, to put it simply, is to use the 'Qi' defined by the Old Beggar to guide the life energy within the body to gather at the soles of the feet, propelling oneself to achieve flight.

As for the Combat Technique, it involves channeling Qi into other parts of the body, thereby unleashing powerful attack and defense capabilities.

This Combat Technique was exactly the same as the technique Jiang Fan had accidentally discovered during the clearing operation in Yuan City.

However, compared to Jiang Fan's lack of method, the Old Beggar's Combat Technique was more systematic. Besides covering oneself with Qi, it could also project Qi outwards, releasing it in the form of energy waves to kill enemies.

After the inheritance ended, Jiang Fan's consciousness returned to the cultivation room.

He tried to follow the Old Beggar's circulation route, slowly gathering Qi at the soles of his feet. As the Qi was released, his body slowly floated one centimeter above the ground.

Then two centimeters... three centimeters...

This novel experience filled Jiang Fan with joy, but in the next moment, he lost his balance, stumbled, and nearly fell to the ground.

Using Qi requires extreme focus and control; every minute detail must be precisely managed.

Jiang Fan calmed himself, concentrated again, and levitated his body. He then controlled his height, direction, and speed to the best of his ability...

After performing the Sky Dance Technique.

Jiang Fan then used the Old Beggar's method, concentrating Qi into his fist and striking the combat power testing device.

Instantly, the numbers on the combat power testing device surged, exceeding 100,000.

Jiang Fan's eyes suddenly sparkled with brilliance!

During his college entrance examination, he had once overloaded the combat power testing device with a single punch by channeling Qi from his meridians.

At the time, he had thought it was an accidental burst of power. Now, it seemed it was the augmentation of Qi that caused his combat power to skyrocket.

If that was the case, wouldn't the stronger his Qi became, the higher his combat power would soar? And the greater the gap between it and his Blood Essence?

Jiang Fan shook his head, dismissing these stray thoughts, and tried concentrating Qi into his palm to release it.

He pushed his palm forward, and a massive palm print appeared on a sandbag several meters away.

Ripples spread out, leaving a gentle breeze in the room.

No good!

Releasing Qi externally demanded too much control. He needed to practice more.

Otherwise, it was too scattered!

For the next day, Jiang Fan remained in the training room, practicing the skills he learned from the Old Beggar.

This was his first encounter with offensive techniques after learning the Innate Breathing and Meditation Technique, so it was incredibly novel.

He attempted to guide the Qi within his body to cover his body, and his muscles immediately became incredibly tough.

He then tried condensing Qi into the shape of a blade and releasing it, slicing a sandbag on the training equipment in half.

He even attempted to condense Qi into light projectiles...

And he used the Sky Dance Technique to fly around the room...

He only stopped when the sky began to darken.

In one day, he had basically mastered these techniques.

Aside from the demands of precision, he had grasped the basics.

Further improvement would only come with gradual cultivation and application!

No need to rush!

After tidying up the training room, Jiang Fan returned to the hotel.

He replenished his food supplies and set out for Hengduan Ridge again before the city gates closed.

The sky had not yet completely darkened. To avoid causing a stir, he gathered Qi at the soles of his feet and ran quickly, his speed indeed much faster than usual.

After leaving Xiao City by about two kilometers, the sky had completely darkened. He looked around, seeing no one.

He immediately used the Sky Dance Technique, levitating several meters above the ground and flying forward rapidly.

The Sky Dance Technique was extremely fast.

In just over ten minutes, Jiang Fan arrived at a mountaintop in Hengduan Ridge.

Upon landing, he carefully sensed the energy in his meridians and found that most of his Qi had been depleted.

He then calculated it silently, and felt confident.

With his current strength, he estimated he could fly at most a hundred li.

The moon was bright, and a gentle breeze caressed him.

Jiang Fan sat alone on the mountaintop, refining the mysterious energy between the sun, moon, and stars.

After completing his cultivation, he used the Innate Breathing and Meditation Technique again to replenish the streams within his meridians.

Over the night, his Spiritual Power and life energy had grown stronger.

As dawn broke, Jiang Fan got up.

It was time to continue hunting Exotic Beasts!

He floated up and began searching the forest.

With the Sky Dance Technique, everything in Hengduan Ridge was within his sight, making it much easier to search for Exotic Beasts.

Not here, let's check over there!

Jiang Fan's mind stirred, and under his precise control, his Qi rapidly changed direction.

"Run, run! It's about to catch up!"

Just then, a voice suddenly came from the forest ahead.

Jiang Fan followed the direction he was looking and saw a group of young boys and girls running in a sorry state.

Behind them, several Level 2 Exotic Beasts were chasing.

More people?

He focused his gaze and immediately frowned.

Within this group, he saw a few familiar figures again.

Why them again?

Why haven't they left yet?

Jiang Fan hesitated for a moment, then activated the Sky Dance Technique and flew towards that direction!
