In Zhenwu Mountain, there are nearly a hundred stone tablets, each recording a cultivation method of Zhenwu. Some are good, some are bad. The good ones are even comparable to the eighteenth set of radio calisthenics, while the bad ones can still allow a person to cultivate and develop Qi within a year.
"The Bull Run Technique has nine levels. Each level can increase strength by 9 jin. Upon reaching the seventh level, one can comprehend Qi."
"The Fierce Tiger Skill has 13 levels, each level representing a new realm. When mastered, one can withstand missiles with their bare body."
"The Tai Chi Classics embody the concept of Yin-Yang balance, and practicing them can significantly enhance one's physical potential."
"..."
As more and more martial arts techniques were discovered, and some people even started practicing them on the spot, the entire Zhenwu Mountain became increasingly lively.
At the highest peak of Zhenwu Mountain, Yi Shuihan quietly overlooked the entire mountain, completely unmoved by the grand spectacle he had created.
Yi Shuihan intends to use Zhenwu Mountain as a martial arts secret realm. He will first use Zhenwu Mountain to pass down the most basic cultivation techniques, and then gradually pass down higher-level techniques every few years. In this way, the level of martial arts on Earth will continue to improve because of the existence of Zhenwu Mountain. In just a few years, a large number of people with combat power of over a hundred or even over a thousand will emerge. Ten years later, the combat power of Earthlings will probably not be inferior to that of Saiyans.
Even so, this is only based on the premise that Yi Shuihan will not interfere further. With his personal guidance, it is still unknown how far the Earthlings can go.
Three days passed quickly, and Zhenwu Mountain disappeared from the sight of the people of Xidu once again.
At the same time as Zhenwu Mountain disappeared, those who had been there received news that it would reopen in three years, with even more advanced martial arts techniques waiting for them. The condition for re-entering Zhenwu Mountain was to master a martial art to perfection.
For the next period of time, the entire Western Capital fell into an eerie silence. Many people who had obtained opportunities on Zhenwu Mountain were cultivating below, and they still had many ideas about the second opening of Zhenwu Mountain.
The truth could not be hidden forever. Soon, the entire United Government knew about what had happened in Xidu. The government sent people to obtain some martial arts techniques. After realizing that practicing these techniques could indeed grant superhuman strength, the army began to popularize the True Martial Arts.
When ordinary people learned of this technique that could greatly enhance their strength in a short period of time and even make them fearless of guns and cannons, they flocked to the Western Capital in a frenzy, eager to learn Zhenwu.
At this critical moment, the government acted decisively and directly announced some common martial arts techniques, which prevented a popular uprising.
People's time practicing Zhenwu is still short, and the government can barely suppress people's hearts with technology. In a while, when the power of Zhenwu is truly revealed, if the government cannot exert stronger power, the whole earth will inevitably fall into chaos.
The chaos on Earth was not what Yi Shuihan wanted to see, so he personally went to the King's Palace and improved the strength of some people. Of course, the improvement was limited, as their potential had been exhausted after the improvement.
If Piccolo Daimaō were to break free of his seal, he would probably be crying in the bathroom with 100 members of the Royal Guard, each with a strength of tens of thousands.
"Who exactly is he? Why is he doing this?"
In the Heavenly Temple, the Heavenly God who had been observing Yi Shuihan's actions was filled with horror. He couldn't see through Yi Shuihan's strength, but the ability to easily enhance a person's strength to the point that even he felt fear made it impossible for the Heavenly God to interfere with Yi Shuihan's actions.
Over the past three years, the Earth has undergone tremendous changes. The status of martial arts practitioners has risen sharply, becoming a coveted profession. In fact, people are even more willing to send their children to learn martial arts than to study.
Martial arts masters began to appear on Earth, and news of a martial arts master shattering a mountain with a single punch could be heard from time to time.
"Indeed, the average combat power of Earthlings is now in the double digits, with the highest exceeding a thousand, and those in the hundreds numbering in the tens of thousands. It's time to pass on a higher level of cultivation techniques."
"Ah Liang, Qiu Ning."
"Here!" x2
"Spread the word that Zhenwu Mountain will soon reopen."
Under Yi Shuihan's tutelage, A Liang and Qiu Ning's combat power reached 15900 and 16100 respectively, making them undoubtedly the strongest individuals on Earth besides Yi Shuihan.
Chapter 936, Distributing Tokens
When Zhenwu Mountain reopens, it will naturally not be done in the same way as before.
The martial arts on Earth are barely passable now, with plenty of martial artists who can fly. The level of Zhenwu Mountain should be raised accordingly.
They sent A-Liang and Qiu-Ning to inform those who had cultivated the basic techniques to perfection. As for what constituted perfection, A-Liang and Qiu-Ning could easily figure it out.
The Jin family is a martial arts family that rose to prominence only a year ago. It is said that its patriarch entered Zhenwu Mountain by chance three years ago and obtained a basic intermediate martial arts manual, the Golden Body Technique. He spent two years perfecting the Golden Body Technique and then founded the Jin family.
It is said that the head of the Kim family is incredibly powerful, and some people have witnessed him withstand missiles with his own body without getting hurt.
At this moment, a woman in white with a cold expression appeared outside the Jin family's gate; it was Qiu Ning.
"Where is Jin Yuan? Come out and receive the order."
A cool, clear voice rang out, instantly drawing everyone's attention.
"Who are you to address the clan leader by his name and demand that he greet you? You simply don't respect the Jin family at all."
A haughty-looking young man spoke to Qiu Ning in an unfriendly manner.
“Young Master Jin is right, young lady, you are very impolite.”
"That's right. The Jin family is a top martial arts family in Nandu. Its patriarch is a True Martial Artist at the Basic Perfection level. Apart from the Martial Ancestor, who doesn't give him face?"
The Basic Perfection level is a classification of True Martial Artists' levels on Earth today. The techniques that Yi Shuihan presented three years ago were all at the Basic level, so everyone assumed that the first realm of True Martial was the Basic realm. According to the levels of cultivation techniques, the first three levels are the Early Basic level, the fourth to sixth levels are the Middle Basic level, and the seventh level and above are the Late Basic level. When the technique is perfected, it is called Basic Perfection.
Because there are good and bad cultivation methods, the strength of those who have reached the basic perfection level varies greatly. It is generally recognized that there are nine levels of basic cultivation methods. Reaching the ninth level is considered basic perfection in the general sense. Those who have reached less than nine levels are considered basic minor perfection, and those who have reached more than nine levels are considered basic major perfection.
Jin Yuan's Golden Body Technique has a total of 9 levels, which is naturally the standard basic perfection.
Qiu Ning glanced indifferently at the few young men trying to get her attention, showing no intention of paying them any attention. They were a bunch of weaklings with combat power in the double digits; she could kill them with a single breath.
As her combat power increased, Qiu Ning's heart also drifted further and further away from ordinary people. She had no desire to have much interaction with those who were much weaker than her.
This behavior clearly angered the young men in front of her. If Qiu Ning weren't a woman, they probably would have swarmed her and taught her a lesson.
It's fortunate that Qiu Ning is a woman; otherwise, if these people had taken the initiative, they would have been beaten to death or maimed.
Suddenly, an unusual whistling sound came, and a golden figure appeared in front of Qiu Ning in the blink of an eye. When it stopped, the residual golden light could still be seen.
"I am Jin Yuan, greetings to Senior Sister Qiu."
Jin Yuan, the head of the Jin family, spoke respectfully to Qiu Ning, leaving Jin Shan and the others dumbfounded. They all wondered who this Qiu Ning was that Jin Yuan would call her "senior sister."
"kindness."
Qiu Ning nodded lightly, looking completely at ease.
Nowadays, most martial artists who have achieved something have practiced the techniques passed down from Zhenwu Mountain, and can also be considered disciples of Zhenwu Martial Arts Academy. As a disciple of Zhenwu Martial Arts Academy, she is stronger than Jin Yuan, so it is appropriate for her to be his senior sister. In fact, Jin Yuan is actually climbing the social ladder.
Jin Yuan's current strength is only around 900 points, less than 1,000. Qiu Ning, on the other hand, is a powerful expert with a combat strength of over 10,000. If it weren't for the fact that Jin Yuan's cultivation technique was passed down to Yi Shuihan, Qiu Ning wouldn't even give him a second glance.
"Have you truly perfected your cultivation technique?"
Qiu Ning asked.
Jin Yuan was shocked. He could feel the powerful pressure emanating from Qiu Ning, as if he would be struck by lightning if he lied.
"Yes."
Jin Yuan answered honestly and pushed the Golden Body Technique to its limit, transforming himself into a golden figure that shone brightly without being dazzling.
Qiu Ning gently pushed Jin Yuan, who was pushed back dozens of meters, leaving a long mark on the ground. He then withdrew from his golden body state and gasped for breath.
Jin Yuan's heart was in turmoil. He had thought that he was quite talented and had mastered the Golden Body Technique in just two years, making him a figure of great importance in the world. Even if he was not as good as Qiu Ning, he would not be far behind. However, the reality told him that this was not the case at all, and the gap had made him feel desperate.
As expected of someone close to the Martial Ancestor, their strength is terrifyingly powerful.
"Not bad. Here, take this token. With this token, you may enter when Zhenwu Mountain is born."
She tossed a small, crystal-clear jade pendant that shimmered with iridescent light in the sunlight to Jin Yuan, and Qiu Ning immediately soared into the sky and flew away.
After Qiu Ning left, Jin Shan and the others breathed a sigh of relief and surrounded Jin Yuan.
"Clan leader, who was that person just now? Why did you call her senior sister?"
"Don't you guys recognize the name Qiu Ning?"
"Qiu Ning, could it be that person beside the Martial Ancestor..."
Having finally learned Qiu Ning's identity, Jin Shan and the others were filled with lingering fear. Fortunately, they only said a few words and did not take any action. Otherwise, even without Qiu Ning's intervention, other martial artists who knew about this would have been happy to kill them to make their presence known.
Similar scenes were unfolding all over the world as A-Liang and Qiu-Ning searched for martial artists with perfected basic skills and distributed tokens. Over time, this matter gradually became known to other people on Earth.
Some who hadn't reached the perfection of their cultivation techniques started to have ulterior motives. They didn't dare to mess with those who had reached the Great Perfection of the Basic Techniques, but they could try to deal with those who had reached the Lesser Perfection of the Basic Techniques. Even if they hadn't reached perfection, those who cultivated the most advanced basic techniques still had the strength to deal with those who had reached the Lesser Perfection of the Basic Techniques.
A bloody storm erupted in the martial arts world, all centered around the struggle for the True Martial Token. After all, only by obtaining the True Martial Token could one have the opportunity to receive a higher level of inheritance, and Yi Shuihan did not say that it was impossible to seize the True Martial Token.
Martial arts, martial arts, if there is no fighting, how can it be called martial arts? All of this was actually within Yi Shuihan's calculations, which can be seen as giving an opportunity to those who are not talented or who are a step behind others for one reason or another.
Chapter 937, Qi Realm, Condensed Liquid, Solid...
The entire Earth was thrown into chaos, with bloodshed occurring constantly. Unlike before, martial artists with combat power of several hundred were now equivalent to nuclear weapons, capable of destroying mountains and cutting off rivers in their battles, making it easy for ordinary people to be affected.
Fortunately, the government was not to be trifled with. It strictly forbade fighting in the city and those who had obtained the token were temporarily not allowed to stay in densely populated areas.
In this way, the losses of ordinary people are minimized, while battles between high-level martial artists become more and more frequent.
A month later, when Zhenwu Mountain reappeared, over a thousand high-level martial artists had died or been injured, including many with combat power exceeding a thousand.
"Finally, we made it through."
In a suburb, a hand suddenly emerged from the previously empty ground, followed by a person who had managed to escape a robbery by burrowing underground.
"Is that all? You haven't had enough killing yet!"
A man covered in blood, surrounded by corpses, exuded murderous intent. He had gone on a killing spree to protect the True Martial Token.
"I'm smart enough to hide underwater; no one can find me."
A green figure leaped out of the water, laughing loudly, but the next moment, his laughter stopped and he fell back into the water.
"Finally succeeded."
This person is someone who practices a special technique and has been hiding in the shadows all this time, all for the sake of this one successful strike.
……
Across the globe, all those who held the True Martial Token gradually vanished into nothingness, disappearing from their original locations.
The Zhenwu Token is a trigger that can help these people enter a special place, namely Zhenwu Mountain, at the right time.
This time, the martial artists who entered Zhenwu Mountain were not teleported immediately, but instead appeared together in a large hall, where Qiu Ning and A Liang were waiting early.
Those who can enter Zhenwu Mountain are basically skilled. Upon suddenly seeing so many martial artists of similar ability, they all showed wariness. Many of them, still exuding murderous aura, immediately attacked the others.
However, after they started, they found that things were not as they had expected. Outside, their speed was close to the speed of sound, and a casual punch could split gold and shatter rocks. But here, it seemed to have completely lost its effect. They rediscovered the weakness they felt before they started practicing their skills, and it was even worse than before.
While everyone was filled with doubt and uncertainty, Ah Liang calmly said, "Here, no one can exert power beyond that of an ordinary person, unless your strength surpasses that of the teacher."
"Just wait! Once everyone has arrived, your teacher will explain the next stage of cultivation to you."
Everyone fell silent and stood there quietly.
The number of people in the hall continued to increase over time. After more than ten minutes, no one else came. There were now more than 300 people in the hall, or more accurately, 318.
Tens of millions of martial artists have emerged across the globe in the past three years, but only 318 are standing here today, which shows their exceptional talent; each one is a one-in-a-million individual.
"Respectfully inviting the teacher."
A-Liang and Qiu-Ning bowed to the void at the same time, and the people below followed suit.
Yi Shuihan's figure gradually solidified from nothing in the void.
At this moment, Yi Shuihan was dressed in a white robe, expressionless. With a single glance, everyone felt a pressure on their souls and dared not meet his eyes.
"Are you willing to join the Zhenwu sect?"
The words were spoken softly, but they caused a huge uproar in the ears of the crowd.
"I am willing."
"Me too."
"I can't ask for it."
"Thank you for your mercy, teacher."
Becoming a disciple of Yi Shuihan, the Martial Ancestor, was something they desperately wanted, and they all readily agreed, as if afraid that Yi Shuihan would change his mind.
Yi Shuihan nodded, somewhat relieved that no one was trying to undermine him.
"From now on, my Zhenwu Dojo will be renamed Zhenwu Dojo. The top ten disciples in the dojo will be ranked based on their strength, and the rest will be ranked based on their entry time."
"Ah Liang is now the senior brother, and Qiu Ning is the second senior sister. Is there anyone who disagrees?"
No one spoke. Most of them had met A-Liang and Qiu-Ning before and experienced the difference in their abilities, so they dared not raise any objections. Besides, if they brought it up now, they would offend someone and get beaten up. If they could beat them, that would be fine, but if they couldn't, they would probably have a hard time in the future.
Before they understand the true limits of A Liang and Qiu Ning's abilities, they will not have any ambition for the positions of senior brother and second senior sister.
"In that case, let's move on to the next step. Your foundation in True Martial Arts is already solid. Except for a few who haven't yet perfected their skills, you can all move on to the next stage of cultivation."
“True Martial originally had no realms, but for convenience, I divided them into realms. You are in the first realm, Qi Realm, which means laying the foundation, tempering your body to the limit, and controlling the existence of Qi.”
"Next, you need to compress your Qi infinitely, compressing it all into a liquid state. I call this the Liquid Condensation Realm. Once the Qi in your body has completely transformed into a liquid state and fills your entire body, you can proceed to the third realm, Solidification Cultivation, which is to transform liquid Qi into a solid state. After solidification comes the Dharma Aspect Realm, which I will not go into for now."
"Ah Liang and Qiu Ning are currently in the second stage of the Condensation Liquid Realm, and their combat power is over 10,000 each."
These people also knew about the combat power method. In the past three years, Earth has gradually developed something similar to the combat power eye, making it easier for people to intuitively understand the strength of martial artists.
Therefore, they had a certain concept of the value of 10,000 combat power, and they all looked at A Liang and Qiu Ning with shock. You should know that the strongest among them only had a little over 1,000 combat power, less than 2,000, the difference was too big.
Even A Liang and Qiu Ning have combat power of over 10,000, so how strong would Wu Zu Yi Shui Han be?
