Endless Shock

Seeing Du Peng look as though he wanted to speak but hesitated,

Lu Yun did not know whether to laugh or cry.

"What Master Du said just now made a great deal of sense. After watching the complete set of fist techniques, I did indeed sense many subtleties."

Du Peng nodded understandingly.

"For someone at your current level, the Primordial Unity Fist is indeed far too difficult."

"But there is no need to belittle yourself."

"As long as you firmly remember those movements from earlier and ponder them often in your spare time, you will gain something in five or six years at the least, or seven or eight years at most."

"If you encounter anything you cannot understand, feel free to come ask me."

"How about this..."

"Tell me which parts you completely failed to understand just now."

"I'll give you some pointers!"

Lu Yun was speechless.

Parts he did not understand?

This set of fist techniques was obviously very simple!

Before Du Peng could finish, he hurriedly cut in.

"Master Du truly deserves to be an Innate Realm martial artist. Your demonstration just now was simply breathtaking."

"How about this."

"Though I would not dare compare myself to Master Du, after watching just now, I have gained a little understanding of this fist technique."

"I would like to make a fool of myself and demonstrate it."

"If anything is wrong, I hope Master Du will not hesitate to instruct me."

At this moment,

Lu Yun had already grasped the essence of the Primordial Unity Fist completely.

As long as he spent a little more time practicing it,

then...

he would surely be able to quickly reach a higher level.

Rather than stand there listening to Du Peng chatter on endlessly, he might as well demonstrate it himself.

"What?"

"You just said... you want to demonstrate the fist technique yourself?"

Du Peng was plainly startled by Lu Yun's answer.

This was simply too absurd.

Could it be...

that Lu Yun's injuries some time ago had been so severe that his mind was no longer clear?

He actually dared to say something like that!

What kind of joke was this?

After only a few minutes, he could already demonstrate it himself?

This was utter nonsense!

Du Peng was certain that he had never performed this set of fist techniques before Lu Yun in the past.

Then...

where did the other man get such confidence?

To believe that after watching it once, he could perform it on his own.

One had to know,

the Primordial Unity Fist was broad and profound.

When Du Peng had trained in it, he had spent a great deal of time before barely managing to remember all the moves.

But...

as for performing it himself, that had only come much later.

As the saying went...

knowing was easy; doing was hard!

Knowing was one thing, but being able to do it after knowing it was something entirely different.

Because of this,

upon hearing Lu Yun's answer,

Du Peng's immediate reaction was that it was impossible.

No one understood the difficulty of the Primordial Unity Fist better than he did.

And based on what he knew of Lu Yun,

he was even more certain that Lu Yun could not possibly possess such heaven-defying talent.

If merely watching it once was enough to perform it, what use would there be for martial arts masters like them?

The only thing Du Peng could not understand was why Lu Yun would make such an outrageous claim.

It would clearly be so easy to expose.

Still,

no matter how much Du Peng grumbled inwardly, he slowly nodded, signaling that Lu Yun could begin.

"Alright!"

Lu Yun respectfully cupped his fists in reply, then

walked to the center of the open ground.

His eyelids lowered slightly as he quietly and swiftly transferred the surging spiritual power within him into his dantian.

There was no helping it.

In just this short while,

he had already become a mid-stage Innate Realm expert, his strength on par with Du Peng before him.

When he performed the fist technique later, if he allowed his spiritual power to spill out freely, he would likely overturn the entire clearing in an instant.

Moreover,

there was no need for him to reveal his true strength right now.

He only needed to follow his memories from earlier and perform the Primordial Unity Fist in its entirety.

With that thought,

a sharp gleam flashed in Lu Yun's eyes.

In his mind,

the scenes he had watched moments ago kept surfacing.

Every move of the Primordial Unity Fist linked together one after another like a slow-motion sequence.

The next second,

the five fingers of his right hand came together, and his fist suddenly shot out.

His figure flickered, tearing through the air.

His speed was so great...

it was as though he had directly passed through the emptiness ahead, sending ripples through the air in an instant.

In the blink of an eye,

his afterimages filled every direction.

This was the first move of the Primordial Unity Fist.

Phantom-Eye Cloud Annihilation.

Though the movements of this move appeared simple, it placed particular emphasis on three things: speed, precision, and ruthlessness.

Under normal circumstances,

a beginner could never unleash this move's true might.

Yet,

Lu Yun not only brought the subtleties of this move into full play, but his speed had even surpassed the limit.

Du Peng, who witnessed it firsthand, nearly had his eyes pop out of their sockets.

Immediately afterward,

he was completely dumbfounded!!!

He stared in sheer terror at the young man ahead, clenching his fists tightly as cold sweat soaked his back.

"No... impossible!"

"Did I just have a hallucination?!"

"How could he be so fast?"

The sight before him made Du Peng's pupils contract sharply, his face filled with incredulous shock.

As an Innate Realm expert, how could he fail to see the subtleties within it?

But precisely because of that,

his scalp went numb.

"This..."

"Both his speed and power have reached flawless perfection."

"Even I cannot achieve this level!"

Although...

the Phantom-Eye Cloud Annihilation Lu Yun had just performed was almost no different from Du Peng's previous movements.

Du Peng knew very clearly in his heart,

that if the countless minute details were magnified, the two were as far apart as heaven and earth.

"How exactly..."

"did he do it?"

Du Peng's face burned as he could not help muttering to himself.
