Chapter 432 - 397: Demon Seed Perfection! Enchanting Decision! Noon Sun Dao Lord!
Meng Chuan’s lifestyle, like that of an ascetic monk, is something she can’t endure.Seeing her daughter wanting to go up to the attic, Xue Na approached and whispered:
"Don’t disturb your brother; he said he’s about to breakthrough...some second level or something.
Let him train well; we just need to handle the logistics."
"Level? The second major limit perhaps..."
"Yes, yes!"
Meng Yiyi’s constitution and comprehension were entirely inherited from her parents; she was almost clueless about martial arts.
Yet, the laboratory’s projects often required cooperation with martial artists, so she naturally understood what the second major limit implied.
Thinking of this, Meng Yiyi couldn’t help but take a deep breath, her mind stirring with turbulent waves.
In her lab, she often collaborated with martial artists who had reached the second limit.
But these people were all over forty or fifty years old; even those in their thirties were quite rare.
While her younger brother Meng Chuan was under twenty...
Thinking of the project team’s heavily commissioned field team leader, the fifty-year-old second limit martial artist, being treated as a honored guest in the lab.
Meng Yiyi clenched her sleeve tightly; her brother’s martial arts achievements...
At this moment, had already exceeded her understanding of a "martial arts genius."
"Mom, you’re right, let’s not disturb him..."
Meng Yiyi softly finished speaking, and the mother and daughter quietly retreated to the living room.
Outside the window, the sound of firecrackers was constant, while the figure sitting cross-legged in the attic began to emit a strong magnetic field, even wrapping the entire small villa.
Meng Chuan introspected his primordial spirit, his Tao heart like a jumping radar, erupting in the depths with soul-stirring tremors.
The demonic breath surged like a living creature through his meridians, ultimately being replenished by the acupuncture points, thick as a giant dragon crossing the river.
The newly emerged Qi blood casually transformed into essence, dripping onto his muscles and bones.
With the crisp notification sound in his mind, Meng Chuan suddenly opened his eyes, flashing with brilliance:
[Demonic Tao Heart: Level 4 (99%) → (100%)]
...
Zhonghan City is located in the southern part of the San Qin region, situated on the southern foot of the Qinling Mountains.
Facing Yong’an from across the mountain, gazing at each other from north to south.
Fang Jianxing examined the intelligence gathered further, using the two major demon path forces, Outer Heaven and Demon Summoning Hall.
He rubbed his fingers, his heart spirit plunged into thought.
"Luo Guanyun has finally appeared in Yong’an; where did he go before..."
Fang Jianxing believed that Luo Guanyun, precisely through the unexpected breakthrough to grandmaster during the last visit to Japan.
Must have understood something...
He felt increasingly anxious, as though his sixth sense urged him that if no action was taken, it would be too late...
First attempt to acquire the [Core Chapter] through his disciple, namely Meng Chuan.
Or return to Japan to retrieve the four residual Chapters with old colleagues.
He needed to make a choice swiftly...
Moments later, Fang Jianxing murmured to himself:
"If Luo Guanyun stays guarding his disciple, then return to Japan first. If not... I’ll obtain the core Chapter!"
...
Fengtian City, at the main campus of Northern United University.
Principal Sui finished his practice and called his disciple Yang Huan.
[Yang Huan, how is the situation in the Ling Demon Nest; do you need me to help?]
The voice on the other end was slightly noisy.
Yang Huan was resting in the command room outside the Demon Nest, preparing to fly back home for a reunion dinner.
After a moment, his voice came through intermittently:
[Master, Zhou Sheng and the two Celestial Kings are still jointly destroying the node, everything is well, you can rest easy.]
Sui Chunqiu sharply asked:
[Have you seen it with your eyes?]
Yang Huan was silent.
On this end of the line, Sui Chunqiu sighed and said:
[You’re not a child anymore, use it less, don’t let that eye become your life-ending talisman.]
[Apprentice understands.]
Sui Chunqiu saw Yang Huan listen to his words, nodded and continued asking:
[By the way, is Meng Chuan about to break two?]
[Almost, I see this kid hasn’t accepted Ling Nu’s summons. Probably won’t have time to come; breakthrough likely in the next few days.]
[Alright, Yang Huan take good care of this kid. Didn’t you say before, that he plans to visit Wudang and Shaolin after the New Year, ensure no lack of protective measures.]
Due to Meng Chuan’s frequent participation in the crusade against the Demon Summoning Hall.
Each time striking ruthlessly, showcasing martial arts talent, he is absolutely a major threat the other side must eliminate.
Sui Chunqiu is usually not the type to overly concern himself with students’ growth.
He advocates that the martial arts path requires sharpening of blades, life and death, success and failure are all part of cultivation.
But on the other hand, Meng Chuan is far too "brash," and excessive brashness can lead to downfall...
On the other end of the line, Yang Huan nodded and said:
[Rest assured, Master, there won’t be any lack of necessary protective measures; when Meng Chuan is ready to set off, I’ll provide them to him.]
[Mm, good, and don’t neglect your own cultivation either; I’m still waiting for you to break through to Martial Arts Celestial King and succeed me in Fengtian.]
[...I’ll do my best, Master.]
...
Meanwhile, close to Principal Sui’s cultivation venue, inside a grandmaster’s mansion.
"Hong’Er, aside from superior root bone and the [Wind from Tiger] trait, your essence, energy, and spirit are equally highly unified.
The biggest obstacle to breaking two is no difficulty for you; you can shatter the shackles now."
Motohiko showed a complex expression, shook his head and said:
"Master, let’s wait a little longer; my heart is not calm; the risk of failure seems quite high."
"Why?"
Shang Ruyi could sense his disciple’s restless mind, but didn’t know why.
Actually, he himself has been quite annoyed lately...
The Mountain Sovereign has disappeared to who knows where, leaving only an avatar for him to observe and study, no idea when the real body will return...
Upon hearing this, Motohiko opened his eyes, helplessly said:
"Master, thinking that even if I break two, I can’t defeat the first-limit Meng Chuan makes me feel bad..."
"...Don’t think about such things, continue training; once master teaches you Tiger Form Divine Skill, you’ll have the chance to surpass Meng Chuan!"
"Master, is the gamble that Meng Chuan won’t learn Divine Skill in the future..."
"...Don’t argue!"
Shang Ruyi saw Motohiko looking like this and sighed:
"What you practice is Martial Arts, which consists of two words, not just ’Martial’.
Your aspiration to defeat Meng Chuan is merely about the word ’Martial’, yet you’ve forgotten your ’Dao’.
The word ’Dao’ encompasses all facets and everything in the world; perhaps what you are currently experiencing is precisely what needs to be paid towards the pursuit of ’Dao’."
Motohiko pondered:
"Failure?"
Shang Ruyi spoke earnestly:
"This isn’t called failure; once Hong’Er achieves success and fame, it’ll merely be your journey path..."
...
Yanhua Sect, that is Yanhua Martial Arts University headquarters.
Zheng Chengcheng stood within the great hall, practicing Tiger Form Boxing, wrapping Yellow Dragon behind her back, her fists winding with Tiger Strength, each move brought forth fierce gusts.
True Qi dissipated with the fist edge, and the candles within the hall all tilted to one side.
Beside her, Zheng Zhenzhen wore a simple and fitted robe, watching her brother box, exclaiming its impressiveness.
From afar, Celestial King Zheng watched the sibling pair with deep comfort in his heart.
Especially the brother, Zheng Chengcheng, who had recently broken through the second limit, progressing at an astonishing speed.
Although supplied with abundant Martial Arts resources, this is inseparable from Zheng Chengcheng’s own talent and effort.
Currently, he has begun dual-cultivating the Tiger Form.
Supplementing ’Zen Heart Hissing Tiger’, laying foundations for cultivating the ’Dragon Tiger Great Compassion Ode’ Divine Skill in the future.
’Dragon Tiger Great Compassion Ode’ is Zheng Yulan’s core cultivation method.
To begin cultivation, it’s essential to establish the foundational Qi Strength of the Elephant Form Sect dual forms, Dragon and Tiger. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novelhall.com
Similarly, it requires the gathering of the compassionate vow force of the ’Great Compassion Mantra’, understanding the true meaning of Buddhist Sect: ’ending slaughter with slaughter, ultimately returning to compassion’.
Therefore, Zheng Chengcheng has a long road ahead.
The cultivation of such top-level Divine Skill is not simple and requires persistent effort to build a solid foundation, proceeding step by step.
Having corrected Zheng Chengcheng’s posture, Zheng Yulan looked at her granddaughter Zheng Zhenzhen, equally gratified in her heart:
"Zhenzhen is a bit slower, having just progressed to Martial Arts Family, but she can start cultivating ’Buddha’s Will to Cross the Dragon’..."
She feels that promotion to Great Saint is hopeless, and her remaining time is devoted to protecting all beings and subduing evil.
She only wishes to teach these grandchildren well and would have no regrets.
Their excellence provides a trace of solace to her weary heart after several battles.
Beside them, Zheng Zhenzhen saw Zheng Chengcheng pause to regulate his breath, curiously asked:
"Brother, can your current strength beat my idol now?"
"...Who?"
"Meng Chuan!"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Chengcheng’s face showed realization.
He had heard several things about Meng Chuan while on the mountain.
Meng Chuan’s actions in the Demon Nest, securing nearly six thousand battle achievements with just one limit, had left him stunned.
Listening to his sister’s words, he then smiled freely and said:
"Of course, I’m confident now; I’m at two limits, handling him is easy."
"Meng Chuan is also about to break two; what about then?"
"...That must be determined by a battle itself."
Zheng Zhenzhen’s eyes glowed brightly and said:
"Then when will you fight, take me with you!"
She had long wanted to descend the mountain, but was stopped by her grandmother, forcing her to train arduously in the mountains.
Zheng Chengcheng seemed to think of something, showing a mysterious smile:
"Soon, there will be an opportunity in a while."
...
At a place in Shanghai, this is the ancestral home of the Chen Family.
Chen Xuan performed a sword dance, winning applause from all the guests.
The white-haired elder at the head nodded, stroking his beard, while the young martial artists looked at Chen Xuan in the center with awe.
Chen Xuan withdrew his sword and retired, after seating, his cousin Chen Jing laughed and said:
"Xuan Brother, the sword dance was great, very powerful."
Chen Xuan nodded slightly, his expression calm and unruffled.
He was never a talkative person, and had long been accustomed to others’ praises.
Chen Jing continued:
"I told Meng Chuan you want to spar with him; he said to bring it on, hahaha."
Chen Xuan’s eyes brightened, seeming interested, nodded and said:
"Cousin, I’m going to San Qin after the New Year, then I’ll seek his guidance."
...
Below the Qinling Mountains, outside the ’Ling Female’ Demon Nest perimeter.
Lu Zhuxiao and his old friends from the army formed a team to hunt Celestial Demons.
"Teacher Lu, when will you break three?"
His friend recently broke through to master realm, at this moment, bantering as they battled.
Lu Zhuxiao thrust his spear into the Upper Rank Celestial Demon in front of him, gritting his teeth and said:
"Once I’ve saved enough for Meridian Opening Pills, I’ll go into seclusion!"
The two fought their way through, ordinary Upper Ranks were naturally no match for the duo.
It wasn’t until they reached the delineated outskirts that they could hear the earth-shaking sounds echoing from the depths of the Demon Nest.
In the thick fog, demonic qi with a purple hue formed arcing beams, slicing through a distance of ten miles, even the void was split into cracks.
Above the sky, a Daoist figure stood in mid-air.
Ripples behind him gathered, forming a Celestial Court-like mirage of palaces and pavilions.
Witnessing this scene, Lu Zhuxiao and his companion’s pupils contracted sharply.
It seems at the node, a Great Demon from ’Ultimate Darkness’ emerged, currently facing off against Dao Lord Wuyang!
The two quickly retreated, away from the battlefield.
Lu Zhuxiao thought to himself that Chu Yanlong and others were also inside the Demon Nest.
He intended to find these few kids first, to remind them not to approach the inner circle of the node within the Demon Nest.
As he searched for them, he grumbled internally:
"Is Xiaomeng breaking two by now..."
Unfortunately, all electronic devices inside the Demon Nest were malfunctioning; otherwise, they’d just check the United University website.
Meng Chuan, as Northern United University’s latest generation of Martial Extreme True Inheritance.
His Martial Arts progress, even every move he makes, affects the hearts of many.
