Gao Wu insists on cultivating immortality.

Opening the lung passages in half an hour is already an extraordinary feat.

Overnight, he unlocked the acupoints of his five internal organs and mastered the complete Iron Crane Fist, with each move reaching its pinnacle!
This isn't defying the heavens; this is a martial god among mortals!
Uncle He had practiced boxing for thirty years. When he saw that Gao Wu had practiced Iron Crane Fist, he felt that all the previous thirty years of training had been in vain.

He immediately realized one thing: no martial arts master could refuse such a genius.

Don't say Gao Wu won't take a master; we'd even accept him as our master.

Gao Wu had anticipated this. Although Uncle He was a bit dejected and had a strange temper, he could eventually see his value.

He wouldn't have chosen Uncle He if it weren't for the need to save trouble. He could have easily stood out in any martial arts school within days.

Another reason is that Uncle He is relatively weak, so he can negotiate terms.

If you really encounter a martial arts master, it will be quite troublesome.

As a level 12 Martial God, Gao Wuzhen had no interest in becoming an apprentice. Even though he was just a wisp of divine soul that had transmigrated here, he still possessed the inviolable dignity of a Martial God.

Uncle He pulled Gao Wu into the room, pointed to a wooden tablet on the incense table and said, "Offer three sticks of incense to your teacher. From now on, you will be my teacher's seventh disciple."

The memorial tablet bears the inscription: "The Divine Tablet of the Late Master Lin Yunfeng".

It's written in a very simple and straightforward style, and it looks like it was written by Uncle He himself.

"My real name is Lin Feihe. Our master's surname is Lin and his given name is Yunfeng. He was the seventh-generation leader of the Iron Crane Sect and a martial arts grandmaster. Ten years ago, he was killed by Guilongji of the Dongyang Yakuza Society in front of the Demon-Subduing Vajra statue on Tianwu Peak."

"I also had my leg broken and twelve ribs broken by Kiryu Shichiro during that battle. I almost died."

Uncle He's face darkened as he recounted the past.

After that battle, the Yakuza established itself in Nan'gang, while the Iron Crane Gate, one of the four major sects of Nan'gang, was completely destroyed.

His disciples scattered to all directions and established many martial arts schools. He was seriously injured, his leg was crippled, and he only had one or two tenths of his martial arts skills left, so he could not open any more schools.

He could only hide in the old town. He had some savings from his early years, and now he helped people treat injuries such as bruises and sprains. With Lin Jiayi taking care of him, he could barely make ends meet.

After Gao Wu offered incense, Lin Feihe couldn't wait to tell him what had happened.

He instructed, "You don't need to worry about Guilong Qilang. Just help me kill Guilong Ji."

"My master has been incredibly kind to me, and I'm still holding back my anger because I want to see how Gui Longji and the others die!"

Gao Wu nodded: "No problem."

"Good good!"

Lin Feihe was greatly excited by Gao Wu's words. Gao Wu was still very weak at the moment, but in three to five years, he would surely become a Grandmaster! Even becoming a Heavenly King would be a matter of course!

Even if they are both grandmasters, Gao Wu's unparalleled talent will surely allow him to defeat Gui Longji.

Lin Feihe pulled Gao Wu to a small room next door. The windows of this room were all sealed with bricks, and once the door was closed, it became a completely enclosed space.

Even during the day, the room needs the lights on and the corner fan turned on for it to be barely habitable.

There wasn't much in the room, just a straw mat and a sword on a shelf next to it.

Lin Feihe closed the door before speaking softly, "The method of refining the five internal organs is passed down in every martial arts school, so it's nothing special."

"The method of condensing the dantian is a unique skill of various schools and sects, and it is generally passed down to sons but not daughters, and will never be passed on to outsiders."

"If an outsider learns it, they will often wipe out the entire family. In the past, the theft of skills always caused very tragic consequences."

Lin Feihe looked directly at Gao Wu as he spoke: "You must never lightly pass on these techniques that I am teaching you, do you understand?"

"I understand." Gao Wu could understand these martial artists. After all, martial arts skills were their livelihood, and they couldn't pass them on to outsiders.

"You just understand."

Lin Feihe reached out and picked up a sword from the shelf. He drew the longsword and shook it slightly: "Our Iron Crane Sect's true skill is swordsmanship. In hand-to-hand combat, nothing is as convenient as a sword."

"If I could have used a sword in the arena back then, my master wouldn't have lost."

He sighed deeply as he spoke, unable to contain his anger, sadness, and pain at the memory of the ring battle ten years ago...

Gao Wu didn't offer any comfort. Lin Feihe was an old man, not a delicate beauty; he would have to bear these things himself. What use were a few empty words of comfort?

Lin Feihe realized he had lost his composure. He wiped his eyes and composed himself, saying, "Other schools of Crane Fist always combine it with Tiger Fist, forming a dual form of Tiger and Crane. Our Iron Crane School is different; Iron Crane is paired with Golden Snake."

"The iron crane is in the sky, the golden snake is on the ground; one is agile and swift, the other is mysterious and vicious."

"Our method for condensing the dantian is found in the Twelve Forms of the Snake and Crane Sword Technique. This is the most important and fundamental secret technique of our sect..."

An hour later, Lin Feihe watched Gao Wu practice his swordplay with a complicated expression. The Twelve Forms of the Snake and Crane, when performed by Gao Wu, were like cranes flying in the sky and golden snakes dancing, light and agile yet mysterious and unpredictable.

Even the breathing techniques correspond to the moves, without any errors or omissions.

There's only one problem: the four-foot-long Qingfeng sword is too long and somewhat incongruous for high-level martial arts.

The main problem was that Gao Wu wasn't tall enough, making it difficult for him to wield such a long sword. Even so, Gao Wu still managed to fully demonstrate the essence of swordsmanship, even revealing a rhythmic beauty.

Lin Feihe had only ever seen this wondrous rhythm in his master. No, although his master's movements were faster and more fluid, he lacked that captivating, divine quality.

Even after witnessing Gao Wu master the Snake Crane Twelve Forms, Lin Feihe was still somewhat dazed. Could a person really do that?
After watching it once and listening to his explanation of the essence of swordsmanship, you can learn it after just one practice. After practicing it three or five times, you become extremely proficient in swordsmanship and even grasp the essence of swordsmanship!
"Could it be that Master has possessed him...?"

Lin Feihe only thought about it briefly; although the belief in ghosts and gods was widespread, he didn't really believe in them.

Evil spirits and demons do exist; they are all kinds of evil spirits and monsters. However, it is unlikely that a person will be reincarnated after death; there are no such gods or immortals!
If there are truly gods and immortals, then where would there be evil spirits and demons? And how could they tolerate the rampant behavior of foreign races!
After Gao Wu practiced the sword technique again, Lin Feihe stopped him and said, "The variations in our school's leg techniques, finger techniques, and palm techniques are all derived from the Iron Crane Fist and the Twelve Forms of the Snake Crane."

"These specific fighting techniques all depend on the individual's understanding of combat. Right now, you should focus on building a solid foundation and mastering the Iron Crane Fist and the Twelve Forms of the Snake Crane."

"Only when you can condense the Qi in your lower dantian and generate powerful true Qi that circulates throughout your body, and when you strike, you can unleash true Qi to break through the enemy in mid-air, can you graduate from your apprenticeship."

Lin Feihe had extremely high expectations for Gao Wu. In his opinion, Gao Wu should never go out and fight before becoming a martial arts master.

No matter how talented someone is, they still need time to grow.

He placed all his hopes for revenge on Gao Wu, and he absolutely could not accept that something might happen to Gao Wu halfway through.

"What you say is very true, senior brother." Gao Wu agreed with this.

Nangang is in chaos, and there are modern firearms. Martial arts masters are nothing special. To be on the safe side, it's better to train until you reach the Heavenly King level first.

The twelve forms of the Snake and Crane sword technique are nothing special; what's truly useful is the visualization and breathing method guided by the sword—this is the secret of swordsmanship that is not passed down.

The upper, middle, and lower dantian correspond to the three treasures of spirit, essence, and qi.

The lower dantian, the sea of ​​qi, gathers true qi like a vast ocean. The middle dantian, the sea of ​​essence, uses true qi to cleanse the five internal organs, bones, and flesh, fundamentally improving one's constitution.

By concentrating the acupoints of the five internal organs, martial artists can reach the limits of human potential in all aspects, yet they remain at the human level.

The Qi Sea allows martial artists to truly surpass the limits of humanity and possess extraordinary power.

The Essence Sea grants humans extraordinary bodies, enabling them to regenerate severed limbs.

The Divine Sea allows the spirit to break through its limits.

At his peak, Lin Feihe was merely a martial arts master, barely able to explain the various aspects of the Qi Sea.

As for the Sea of ​​Essence and the Sea of ​​Divine Power, they were simply inexplicable. Gao Wu knew little about the martial arts of this world, but with the Twelve Forms of the Snake and Crane, he was able to deduce the levels of martial arts in this world and see the changes in the highest level, the Sea of ​​Divine Power.

Once he condenses his essence sea to strengthen this body, condensing his divine sea will not be difficult. Even without a ready-made method, if he can push the Twelve Forms of the Serpent and Crane to their limit, he will surely be able to condense his divine sea.

Although he only possessed a wisp of divine soul essence, and his spirit and body were limited, his wisdom and insight were not.

The myriad realms are merely different spatial and temporal structures. He can directly point to the essence in various dimensions, including spirit, body, and source energy.

Having acquired the Iron Crane Sect's martial arts, he found the key to unlocking this world. That was enough for him.

All that's left is some time to cultivate, explore, and reach the peak.

Gao Wu estimates it will take three to four months in total. The main reason is that his body needs time to grow.

"Your body is too weak. You need to eat well, drink well, sleep well, and also need some precious medicinal herbs."

Lin Feihe had no idea what Gao Wu was thinking, but he had already come up with a plan for Gao Wu to practice martial arts.

"I don't have money, but luckily Lin Jiayi does."

Gao Wu knew that Lin Jiayi was Hong Hu's name, and he asked, "Can you get money from her, Senior Brother?"

“Her father, Lin Zong, was my fourth senior brother. He was also killed in that duel ten years ago.”

Lin Feihe was very confident about this, "She may not say it, but I know she's definitely thinking about revenge. With her current abilities, she can definitely come up with several hundred thousand to support you."

Gao Wu didn't say anything. He felt that Hong Hu was quite shrewd and much smarter than Lin Feihe.

This old senior brother wants to take advantage of the Red Tiger family, but it won't be that easy.

Despite his imposing appearance, Honghu, who supports so many people, may not actually have much money.

Lin Feihe, however, was very confident. He handed the Qingfeng Sword to Gao Wu and told him to take it back and practice his swordsmanship at any time.

He went with Gao Wu to the high-end gambling den where Hong Hu was located.

Around five or six in the afternoon, there were already some gamblers in the hall. The smell of cigarettes, alcohol, food, and sweat mingled together, and the noisy chatter of the crowd made the hall lively and chaotic.

Lin Feihe knew the way well and led Gao Wu straight into Hong Hu's office.

Red Tiger had his long legs propped up on the desk, a cigarette dangling from his mouth, and a comic book in his hand, looking very relaxed.

Seeing Lin Feihe lead Gao Wu in, Hong Hu didn't get up. She glanced at Lin Feihe and casually asked, "Uncle He, you have so much free time?"

Lin Feihe didn't care about Hong Hu's dismissive attitude. He leaned closer and said, "Jiayi, I have something important to tell you."

When Lin Feihe called her by her real name, Honghu raised her long eyebrows slightly, somewhat displeased. But seeing Lin Feihe's serious expression, she suppressed her displeasure and stood up. "Uncle He, let's talk inside."

There are also rooms inside the office, but they are quite private. Ordinary people are not allowed to go in.

Gao Wu sat outside waiting. After more than ten minutes, Lin Feihe came out and beckoned to Gao Wu: "Come here."

Gao Wu followed Lin Feihe inside and found that it was an empty room of about 20 square meters, with spears and swords displayed on a wooden shelf against the wall.

There was a wooden figure in the corner, covered in signs of damage. Judging from this, this was Red Tiger's training room.

Red Tiger Lin Jiayi had changed into a loose black training uniform. She waved to Gao Wu: "Uncle He praised you to the skies, I'll test your skills."

"If you can withstand ten of my moves, I'll give you two hundred thousand. If you can withstand twenty, I'll give you four hundred thousand."

Lin Jiayi stretched out her hands and assumed a stance. Her thumbs and little fingers were half-cuffed, and her index, middle and ring fingers were slightly bent, which was the Crane Claw from the Iron Crane Fist.

If one's cultivation level is insufficient, this gesture may look impressive, but in actual combat, a single punch could break one's finger. Even poking someone with one's finger, if done with sufficient force, could also break the finger.

Only by opening up the five internal organs and five orifices, and by having strong muscles and bones and finger strength like a knife, can one use the Crane Claw technique.

Gao Wu stepped forward, nodded slightly, and cupped his hands in greeting: "Please."

"please."

Lin Jiayi returned the greeting with a cupped hand. She didn't rush to make a move, but instead curiously examined Gao Wu from head to toe.

Two days ago, this boy didn't even know any martial arts, or at least couldn't circulate his internal energy. In just two days, he's opened up his five internal organs and five orifices? And he's even learned the Twelve Forms of the Snake and Crane?

That's impossible!
Lin Jiayi started practicing martial arts with her father, Lin Zong, when she was seven years old, and continued until she was seventeen before she opened her first lung acupoint.

Her father's death in a duel spurred her to work even harder, and it still took her five years to open up the other four acupoints.

She is now only one step away from becoming a martial arts master, but she can't seem to find the feeling of gathering her Qi Sea.

It was precisely because of her diligent practice day and night that she came to know how profound the Iron Crane Fist was. She absolutely did not believe that anyone could achieve anything in just two days.

If that's the case, then she's willing to do everything in her power to help!
Lin Jiayi saw Gao Wu calm and composed, his shoulders level and his hands steady. His five toes, clad in flip-flops, gripped the ground with force, his whole body's strength unified and stable, his breathing steady and deep. Although he was not tall, he already possessed the stability and elegance to stand out from the crowd.

I haven't seen him for two days, and this kid has really changed! He can fool people about other things, but his kung fu skills are undeniable!

"Good!" Lin Jiayi had to give a thumbs up. She pushed off with her feet and used the strength of her shoulder blades to leap forward, moving like a flying crane.

Her hand, like a long crane's beak, stabbed straight at Gao Wu's face.

This move is a direct attack method used in the Crane-Eating Technique; it is simple yet sharp and swift.

Gao Wu didn't dodge either; he also formed a crane claw shape with his hand to block Lin Jiayi's left hand.

With her hands crossed and collided, Lin Jiayi's arms vibrated with the power of true qi, which was the most advanced change in Zong He's strength.

Even among martial artists of the same level, if they do not know how to defend themselves, they can easily break the opponent's arm bones with their explosive power.

Gao Wu countered with Zong He's shaking force. The two forces vibrated and canceled each other out simultaneously. With a snap, both of their arms were shaken outwards at the same time.

At the same time, Lin Jiayi's right leg had already silently kicked towards Gao Wu's lower abdomen.

Iron Crane Fist's leg techniques mainly involve kicking, primarily using the toes and tips of the feet to generate power. This kick is enough to rip open a soft abdomen and even tear the intestines apart, making it extremely vicious.

Gao Wu inhaled and tightened his abdomen. Lin Jiayi's toes were just inches away from touching his lower abdomen. It was this tiny distance that caused Lin Jiayi's leg to miss its mark.

Lin Jiayi was also a little surprised. This kid reacted quickly and dodged skillfully. He was just a hair's breadth away from it. Was it intentional or was it the only way he could do it?

Just then, Gao Wu suddenly contracted his lower abdomen and bulged out, simultaneously exerting force from his waist, his abdomen pressing directly against Lin Jiayi's foot.

Lin Jiayi was about to pull her legs back when she didn't expect Gao Wu to take such a risk. Caught off guard, she was a little too slow to exert force again, so she could only bend her legs to adjust and avoid being pushed off balance by Gao Wu's lower abdomen.

Gao Wu suddenly thrust out with his right hand, his crane claw sweeping across the soft tendon of Lin Jiayi's calf. He used his true energy to exert force, and although he didn't really go all out, it still caused Lin Jiayi severe pain in her calf, and half of her leg felt numb.

Lin Jiayi realized something was wrong and quickly withdrew her leg and retreated, but Gao Wu did not pursue her. He simply cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your consideration."

Lin Jiayi was a little unconvinced. She had lost a move, but it was still a long way from a decisive victory.

But since Gao Wu had stopped, she couldn't make a move herself.

She was displeased, but a cheerful smile appeared on her face: "Young man, you've got some skill! I've lost..."

Whether it's due to skillful martial arts or cunning tactics, to have mastered Iron Crane Fist to such a level in just two days is truly the mark of an extremely powerful genius.

This alone makes it worthwhile for her to place a heavy bet! (End of Chapter)
