The Smiling Old Man's Shock

Damn it, they have to make killing me so complicated, bringing me up this high to play bungee jumping, except it's bungee jumping without any safety equipment.

Just as he was only seven or eight meters from the ground, Ren Jie suddenly felt a force that abruptly lifted his body upwards, completely alleviating the force of the high-altitude fall, but the next moment his body fell again.

Seven or eight meters isn't low, it won't kill you but it'll hurt a lot. Fortunately, Ren Jie was still relatively conscious in this situation, and he slammed his hands down, rolling on the ground to dissipate the force. However, because of the unique pressure of the Jade Emperor Art's Body Refining chapter within his body, Ren Jie's strenuous exercise immediately caused him to grimace in pain.

"Damn, this is twisted!" Ren Jie couldn't help but curse.

"What, you dare to curse this king?" Before Ren Jie could finish speaking, a black shadow suddenly fell from the sky, landing right in front of Ren Jie. Everything about it was black, and it wore an extremely comical smiling face mask, with a wide-open mouth. It stood in front of Ren Jie, exuding a terrifying pressure, far greater than the pressure Ren Jie felt in the palace, where the Emperor relied on his status, position, the palace, and sitting on the dragon throne.

This was a kind of power that controlled life and death, controlled power, and made the surrounding spiritual energy tremble, a pressure that made it hard to breathe.

"King? Which king? If you piss off this Family Head, I'll curse even the Emperor. Which prince are you?" Ren Jie naturally knew that this person was definitely not a prince of the court, because he hadn't heard of any prince with such cultivation, unless it was one of those old antiques in the palace. But this guy gave off a wild feeling, definitely not someone who had been restrained.

As for the aura and pressure he released, Ren Jie was completely unaware. Even though he had only felt a little of the aftereffects of a Saint discussing the Dao, after being there, he really didn't feel much from other people's aura and pressure.

Even though this person's pressure was already extremely terrifying, the strongest existence Ren Jie had felt in this world, its impact on him was negligible. Taking advantage of the nonsense, Ren Jie was also observing the person who had suddenly brought him here from his bedroom. This should no longer be the Ren Family, and this person was extremely stern, but he wore a smiling face mask that didn't match him at all. He spoke with a wildness, not like someone from the court, or even someone from the various great families.

"Bah, what Emperor is qualified to ennoble this king? Don't compare this king to those vulgar princes who are ennobled by others. And, you dare to look? Haven't you seen someone as handsome as this king before? Get over there, and use your fists to crack at least one layer of bark on each tree. If you don't finish thirty layers tonight, this king will spank you. Just like you spank those bastards in your family, one hundred and eight trees, each with at least thirty layers of bark cracked. However many you miss, that's how many times you'll get spanked. Hurry up, get over there."

"Bang!" As soon as this guy finished speaking, Ren Jie felt a heavy kick on his butt, and then his whole body flew forward a few dozen meters at low altitude. Although his butt hurt a little, when his body was about to land, a force suddenly cushioned him, just like when he fell from high altitude. Then Ren Jie discovered that he was standing next to a pile of tree stumps, with large trees that took two people to hug in front of him, like fragile grass that had been cut at the top and roots, and forcibly stuck here.

"Thousand Layer Tree." Ren Jie recognized it at a glance. This was a tree unique to the Demon Beast Abyss. Each year, the bark added a layer, and each layer of bark was extremely hard and tough, and the hardness and toughness increased layer by layer. It was a rare thing for the Body Refining Realm to temper their bodies. Even the direct descendants of the five great families only occasionally got one or two to use. Where did this guy get these hundred-plus Thousand Layer Trees?

At this moment, Ren Jie was confused, but his mind was still very calm. First of all, he could confirm one thing: this person was not trying to kill or harm him. However, this guy's actions were really strange. Could it be that he wanted to train him? At least from the current situation, he had this intention. His voice wasn't controlled, so he should be very old, and he had brought himself through the air. Even a powerful existence who had reached the Yin Yang Realm and condensed a Yin Soul would find it difficult to fly with someone else.

In other words, this strange person who seemed very stern, gave off a cold feeling, had a fiery temper, but wore a completely mismatched smiling face, was very old, had no intention of harming him, and his cultivation had at least reached the point of condensing a Yang Soul in the Yin Yang Realm, or even… stronger. This was no longer the Ren Family, and should still be in Jade Capital City, but he didn't know the direction yet. Also, there seemed to be some tricks to the placement of these one hundred and eight Thousand Layer Trees. In an instant, Ren Jie had sorted out some clues in his mind.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and hit them, no questions, no complaints, or this king will hit you first. If you don't finish the first thirty layers of these one hundred and eight trees, don't even think about sleeping, eating, or doing anything else." Seeing Ren Jie standing there motionless, the Smiling Old Man roared angrily, appearing next to Ren Jie without any movement, ready to teach Ren Jie a lesson at any time.

"Even if you're fierce, I won't be afraid of you. Obviously, you won't kill me." Ren Jie's gaze was still on the one hundred and eight Thousand Layer Trees in front of him, completely ignoring the ferocious Smiling Old Man beside him.

"..." This guy… what is he saying? How could he be so calm talking to him like this? He was caught in the middle of the night, almost fell to his death, and now he could still say such things. Was he pretending to be calm, or had he seen through something? Thinking about how he had deliberately released his pressure earlier, but this guy was able to completely ignore it, what was going on? He was a little confused.

But he felt very uncomfortable, because in just two sentences, it seemed like the situation was getting out of control. No, how could he let such a little guy control the situation? He'll see how he deals with him.

"Humph…" With a cold snort, the Smiling Old Man exuded a cold killing intent: "Now immediately do as I say, and if you make a mistake, you die."

The killing intent released by the old man was cold and terrifying, making people shudder, but Ren Jie really didn't feel anything about this kind of thing, and he was very confident in his judgment, so this time he still looked at the one hundred and eight Thousand Layer Trees, continuing to stand there, not even bothering to pay attention to the Smiling Old Man.

Damn it, the Smiling Old Man couldn't believe it, how was this possible? The killing intent he released was enough to shatter the livers and gallbladders of ordinary people, and even if they had seen some things, if their strength and realm were not enough, it would be enough to scare them silly.

But what was this kid's attitude now? Ignoring him, was he putting on a show? Fine, fine kid, so he was going to challenge him.

The Smiling Old Man slowly raised his hand, pressing down on Ren Jie's head, as if to crush his head, and above his palm, powerful magic power pressed down, giving a sense of controlling his life and death, and the collapse of the heavens and earth.

"Four Extremes Suppress Eight Directions, inside it should contain the Battle Eight Directions battlefield killing martial skill that all of our Ren Family disciples must learn, but here it also integrates many small things, with more changes, and more killing intent in the original wide-open and wide-ranging style. You want me to hit this, you should want me to smash these Thousand Layer Trees within a month, and under tens of thousands of desperate bombardments and tempering, make my body stronger, and also allow me to learn this set of fusion methods containing Battle Eight Directions and other martial skills in the process of thousands of times. You have at least integrated more than thirty kinds of martial skills, this martial skill should have reached the level of a high-grade martial skill, and even after the Divine Power Realm, it can still be combined with some divine powers. If the cultivation reaches the Divine Power Realm, the power of close combat should be close to a top-grade martial skill."

At this moment, Ren Jie suddenly spoke, because just now he was looking at these one hundred and eight Thousand Layer Trees, and his mind was constantly evolving changes, and he had quickly seen through the mysteries inside.

Suddenly, the hand that the Smiling Old Man raised to slowly apply pressure to Ren Jie's head suddenly froze in mid-air, looking at Ren Jie in disbelief.

How could this kid know? This set of things was specially created by this king in recent years for today, no one could know, this kid…

"How do you know?"

Ren Jie shrugged his shoulders and said, "Looking at this arrangement, thinking in my mind about hitting thirty layers of Thousand Layer Trees every day, hitting these one hundred and eight Thousand Layer Trees eleven thousand six hundred and forty times, and then thinking about the situation after a month, I can know what purpose you want to achieve, and I will know the effect."

"Bullshit, this is the unique technique of this king, you can know what the effect is after looking at it a few times, do you think this king is so easy to deceive?" The Smiling Old Man was really angry this time, glaring at Ren Jie, so angry that he couldn't stand it.

The Smiling Old Man was very confident and conceited about this set of martial skills that he had improved himself. In his opinion, it could definitely be compared with the sages. If this kid could initially master it in a month, and use three points of its appearance in a year, then he would be a leader among the younger generation in Jade Capital City.

But now, this kid said these things after looking at it here, was he taking his actions as a children's arrangement, what a joke. But only he knew about this matter, so he was also extremely surprised in his heart, how could this kid know? "Four Extremes Suppress Eight Directions, opening and closing hides Yin and Yang, killing intent is hidden between opening and closing, unconventional, only seeking results." Seeing the excited appearance of the Smiling Old Man, Ren Jie also felt a little itchy at the moment, because he had never really learned a set of martial skills in his mind. Martial skills were the most effective attack method before the Great Dao Divine Power Realm could use spells and divine powers. Relying on his realm, he had just evolved this set of techniques in his mind, and he could feel the power of this set of techniques below the Divine Power Realm.

At this moment, seeing the Smiling Old Man so excited, Ren Jie's body slowly moved, his movements were not very strong or fast, and although he had slightly adapted to the gravity and pressure of the third layer in his body, he could only be like a normal person. Ren Jie stepped on the eight directions, changed his steps, and punched out one punch after another, saying his feelings about this set of martial skills.

And the Smiling Old Man on the side, listening to Ren Jie's words, the originally violent and angry expression suddenly froze again.

Damn, how does he know these…

And looking at Ren Jie's punches, wasn't it exactly his set of martial skills? Although he didn't hit very fast, the feeling was really like he had gone through a month of training, and this set of martial skills had become familiar from unfamiliar.

If he hadn't personally caught him just now, just looking at him practicing this set of punches, he would have thought that he had been practicing hard for a month.

Strange, strange, how could this kind of thing happen. Impossible, even if his father was known as a genius unprecedented in Jade Capital City for thousands of years, it was impossible to cultivate his top-grade martial skills to this point after just one glance.

Moreover, martial skills need to be tempered little by little, could it be that he could do it by thinking about it in his head, then what the hell was the point of practicing? "Huff… huff…" Ren Jie hit very normally and slowly at the beginning, but the more he hit, the more smoothly he hit. Although the unique chain formation formed by the one hundred and forty-four Qi Jin rings of the third layer of the Jade Emperor Art's Body Refining chapter formed a gravity and pressure suppression, when he hit it heartily. The operation of the Jade Emperor Art was also much faster than usual, and the remaining Qi Jin in his body became more and more sufficient. The medicine he had just taken quickly integrated into his body when Ren Jie urged his power to hit this set of punches.

Ren Jie's body was quickly mobilized, and in this state, he felt that the gravity and pressure in his body were gradually weakening.

No, it's not that the gravity or pressure is weakening, it's that he is rapidly activating the Jade Emperor Art, using this martial skill to stimulate the potential power of his body, and the erupting power is constantly enhancing his physical strength.

Therefore, Ren Jie fought faster and faster, more and more absorbed, constantly displaying the various changes that had evolved in his mind just now.

It was precisely because of this exhilarating feeling that Ren Jie became more and more addicted to the fight, completely ignoring the existence of the Smiling Old Man, and with a lunge, he had already rushed into the stump of the Thousand Layer Tree.
