C21 Invigorated Meridian Level Five
C21 Invigorated Meridian Level Five
Although he had never cultivated the Lightning Finger before, he knew that this combat skill required speed to win. When cultivated to the Initial Stage, one's finger energy tore through the air, making it difficult to see with the naked eye. If he cultivated it to the Great Completion Stage, his finger energy would be able to move freely and freely, without mentioning how powerful it was. At the very least, it could make the enemy unable to avoid it, and it could make the enemy lose control of the situation. Besides, no matter how trashy a combat skill was, as long as it could hit the enemy's vital points, it would be useless. It could also kill the enemy in one hit.
More importantly, no matter how simple a combat skill was, it would require a long period of time to comprehend it. Only then would one be able to grasp its essence and unleash its powerful might.
Under normal circumstances, it would take at least a month or so for an outer sect disciple to cultivate a low-rank Huang ranked battle skill to reach the Minor Success Stage. Even those geniuses wouldn't be able to see the true meaning of it in less than ten days.
When Luo Jie was cultivating the Killing Wolf Combat Skill, it took him more than two months. Although the Lightning Finger Combat Skill was easy to learn, it took him an hour to reach the Great Completion Stage. Chiang Zhan's abnormal perception was simply incomprehensible.
"Luo Jie, use your strongest combat strength to test the power of the Electric Finger with me."
All of a sudden, Chiang Zhan turned around and looked at Luo Jie, then he pointed his finger at him.
Swoosh!
A finger energy pierced through the void like a clap of thunder. The divine arrow pierced through the void and carried a strong wind, aiming straight at Luo Jie's chest.
"Kill the wolf!" Luo Jie's facial expression changed dramatically. He was shocked, although he knew that Chiang Zhan would never hurt him. The finger energy pierced through the void and arrived in an instant, causing him to feel a strong sense of danger. In this situation, he almost instinctively launched a counterattack.
With a long roar, he pushed his martial arts to the limit. He threw a punch. Instantly, vigorous and surging spirit energy surged and swept across the void. In the blink of an eye, it condensed into the shadow of a hungry wolf, the size of a calf. It opened its mouth and swallowed the incoming finger energy.
Boom!
In the next moment, the image of the hungry wolf exploded on the spot, turning into a storm and wreaking havoc everywhere.
Looking at Luo Jie again, his body was shaking, and he was continuously retreating. A line of deep footprints was left under his feet, and his face was filled with anxiety.
"What kind of combat skill is this? Its power isn't bad."
Chiang Zhan smiled faintly. He stared at Luo Jie's left shoulder, then he pointed out his finger once again. With a swoosh, his finger Qi cut through the void like a rainbow, and it was unstoppable.
Boom!
Luo Jie threw out a second punch, blocking the attack of the finger energy. He felt that his entire body was drenched in sweat. His heart was beating fast, as if it was going to jump out of his throat. The reason why he was able to break the finger attack in time wasn't because his reaction was fast enough. It was Chiang Zhan's eyes that reminded him, otherwise his left shoulder would have been pierced through long ago. He was seriously injured. Due to this situation, he wouldn't want to fight with Chiang Zhan even if he was beaten to death. He hurriedly waved his hand and shouted.
"Mr. Zhan, spare me. Your lightning finger is too fast. I can't react in time."
"Don't worry. My subordinates know their limits. I won't hurt you. Besides, this kind of combat training can increase your reaction speed and increase your combat experience. It will be good for you."
As Chiang Zhan spoke, he pointed out his fingers continuously. Countless fingers shot out like thousands of arrows, piercing through the void and shooting towards Luo Jie from all directions.
"Kill the wolf!"
Luo Jie nodded his head. He knew that what Chiang Zhan said made sense. This was also his chance to gain experience in actual combat. He naturally had to seize it. After making up his mind, his body flickered and he kept dodging. At the same time, he channeled the Spiritual Qi in his body into his fist, which emitted a blood-red glow. He attacked Chiang Zhan again and again.
The wind from his fist raged and wreaked havoc in the void. The surging spiritual qi kept condensing into hungry wolves. However, most of them had just taken shape when they were penetrated and exploded by the finger Qi, turning into nothingness.
This battle lasted for more than four hours. In the end, all the spiritual Qi in Chiang Zhan and Luo Jie's bodies were exhausted, and they had no choice but to stop and replenish their spiritual Qi.
"Mr. Zhan, my cultivation base has actually reached the peak of Fifth Layer of Pulse Opening Stage. The total amount of spiritual energy in my body has become much stronger than before, and my strength has also improved by a lot." After resting for a while, Luo Jie exclaimed with an excited expression on his face. After a fierce battle, he had consumed a lot of Qi to replenish himself. He had miraculously reached the peak of the Fifth Layer of Pulse Opening Stage, so he was naturally excited.
This was the advantage of a battle. Under normal circumstances, he had just broken through to the Fifth Layer of Pulse Opening Stage. It would take at least a dozen days for him to reach his peak condition, but today, he was fighting Chiang Zhan. Not only did his cultivation base increase by one level, his strength and combat experience also increased dramatically. His reaction speed also increased.
Chiang Zhan could also feel that his spiritual Qi had become much purer after a period of consumption. It was easier to control it, but this battle was too easy for him. The benefits he obtained were far less than Luo Jie's. He wanted to break through to the Fifth Layer of Pulse Opening Stage. * Hong Long...... *
Even so, he had found a shortcut. Apart from cultivating, he spent the rest of his time fighting Luo Jie.
Ten days passed in a flash.
That evening, Chiang Zhan and Luo Jie were fighting. Suddenly, he felt the spiritual energy in the depths of his Dantian surging violently. It was like a giant wave had rolled up from the ocean, rushing into his fifth meridian with a force that could topple mountains and overturn seas. It completely pierced through his fifth meridian.
Fifth Layer of Pulse Opening Stage. Chiang Zhan's cultivation base had broken through once again. A powerful force burst out from his body, causing the void to fluctuate. The stone house trembled, and Luo Jie was sent flying, crashing into the stone wall.
"Roar!"
Chiang Zhan let out an excited roar. At this moment, his entire body was filled with energy, as if he could crush a mountain with a single punch.
Fifth Layer of Pulse Opening Stage. He should be the fastest person in the entire Heavenly Fist Sect to break through to this realm. His powerful strength could be considered as an expert amongst the outer circle disciples.
"An intense battle can indeed condense spiritual energy quickly and increase one's cultivation base. It's a pity that Luo Jie's strength is too weak. Otherwise, why would he waste ten days?"
Chiang Zhan's heart was filled with excitement, and his blood was boiling. He had truly experienced the benefits of a battle. The only thing that was lacking was that Luo Jie's strength was too weak. He was no match for Luo Jie. If the two of them were evenly matched, or if they forced him into a life and death situation... This was not the only advantage he had obtained.
Thinking about it, he decided to return home in a few days. Firstly, he could ask his father about the awakening of the War King Bloodline. Secondly, he could ask his father about the awakening of the War King Bloodline. Secondly, he would need to travel from the Heavenly Fist Sect to the Chiang family. He would have to pass by a few dangerous places along the way, where countless demon beasts lived. He would be able to gain some real experience.
"Congratulations to Mr. Zhan for advancing to the Fifth Layer of Pulse Opening Stage. I'm afraid that even Seventh Layer of Pulse Opening Stage warriors won't be able to fight you with your current strength. However, in the path of martial arts, every step is filled with thorns. The higher your cultivation base, the more difficult it will be to improve. With your current condition, unless... "
Luo Jie shook his head. He wanted to say something, but stopped himself. A cunning look was revealed in his eyes.
"Just say what you want to say. Don't be a sissy."
Chiang Zhan and Luo Jie had been together for more than twenty days. He had already regarded Luo Jie as his brother. When he saw Luo Jie stuttering, he couldn't help but laugh.
"What I mean is that you should go out and experience the true training of blood and fire. Only by doing so can you break through to the Pulse Opening Stage Sixth Layer as soon as possible." As Luo Jie spoke, he took out a jade token from his pocket, "This is the mission I received a few days ago. I'm going to the Purgatory Mountain Range to hunt a super First Grade demon beast Iron Scaled Python. After completing the mission, I'll be able to obtain two Invigorated Meridian Pills. Are you interested? "
"No!"
Chiang Zhan immediately rejected Luo Jie when he heard him. There was no other reason. According to the experience of the Prosperous Force Empire's warriors when hunting demon beasts, all demon beasts were divided into one to four levels. Each level was divided into ordinary, top, super, and peak levels.
Among them, the strength of an ordinary rank 1 demon beast was equivalent to an Invigorated Meridian Realm First to Third Sky warrior. The strength of a top demon beast was comparable to a Fourth Level Pulse Opening Stage to Sixth Layer warrior. Super demon beasts could be compared to Ninth Level Seventh Layer of Pulse Opening Stage warriors, and Peak Demon Beast... Even the Invigorated Meridian Stage Level Heaven Ten Martial Artist might not be able to fight against it.
Although Luo Jie had already stepped into the Pulse Opening Stage Sixth Layer, he still dared to accept the mission of killing a First Grade super demon beast. That was an existence comparable to a Ninth Heavenly Seventh Layer of Pulse Opening Stage warrior. He was simply seeking his own death.
Chiang Zhan knew clearly in his heart that since Luo Jie was so bold, it was obvious that he had already made up his mind. To drag him into the water, such a dangerous mission, to tell the truth... He wasn't sure if he could complete it. Besides, he also wanted to take the opportunity to teach Luo Jie a lesson. He didn't want this guy to be reckless and cause trouble for him in the future.
"Mr. Zhan, I'm doing this for your own good. How can you refuse? Besides, you should know that with my current strength, I can hunt a First Grade super demonic beast. It's definitely a dead end." Luo Jie's brows were tightly furrowed, and his eyes were filled with anxiety. Countless beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. Obviously, he was frightened by Chiang Zhan's attitude.
"Is it a dead end? I don't think so. Since you dare to accept this mission, you must have the confidence to complete it. Go, I will wait for the good news of your victory."
Chiang Zhan looked serious on the surface, but in fact, his heart was filled with joy. It's time for you to show off. Now you know how anxious you are.
"Mr. Zhan, we are brothers. Are you really going to watch me die?" This time, Luo Jie was really anxious. He was going to hunt a First Grade super demon beast by himself. Just thinking about it made him feel terrified. If Chiang Zhan really didn't help him, then the Purgatory Mountain Range would be his burial ground.
"Brother, you grandfather, you really have the nerve to say that." Chiang Zhan could see the anxiety in Luo Jie's heart. He laughed and said, "Alright, this time I will accompany you, but don't do it again. Otherwise, don't blame me for not helping you."
"Understood. Next time, I won't cause trouble for Mr. Zhan." Luo Jie nodded his head repeatedly. All of his worries vanished into thin air. After that, he eagerly led the way for Chiang Zhan. The two of them left the Heavenly Fist Sect together and headed straight for the Purgatory Mountain Range.
