With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 329 Panel Unveiled: Three Forms Missing from the Fist!
This is the subtle manifestation of the Five Elements Fist's understanding.

The importance of comprehension is self-evident, especially when starting out in spiritual practice or hitting a bottleneck, it is as if divine assistance is provided.

As long as he possesses true wisdom, he will not go astray or take the wrong path.

With a sharp mind, even the most difficult concepts can be figured out if you just keep thinking about them.

I felt like I was almost there. But I practiced hard and eventually mastered it.

That's how it is now; time slowly slips away amidst the punches and kicks.

In the courtyard.

As the thunder and fire energies contained in Meng Chuan's boxing style continuously surged, the surrounding temperature slowly rose.

Lu Zhuxiao wiped the sweat from his forehead, offered some pointers, and then nodded slightly.

"This scorching scene is already taking shape."

I didn't expect this kid to have such a good grasp of the Five Elements Fist; I hadn't noticed it before.

【意景】is an advanced form of 【势】, and is an exclusive ability of Xingyi School martial arts masters.

Although Lu Zhuxiao cannot reach that level, he is working towards it, so it is obvious at a glance.

At this moment, Meng Chuan was completely absorbed in the boxing technique, unaware of what Lu Zhuxiao was thinking.

This is because his comprehension is constantly improving.

This growth has indeed exceeded everyone's expectations.

The tree canopy protruding from the outer wall had its branches and leaves curled up from the steam.

The temperature rose higher and higher, but Lu Zhuxiao remained motionless, watching Meng Chuan's every change.

He could sense that the kid's punches were getting better and better.

Just as he was about to speak encouragingly, he saw Meng Chuan's fist stance suddenly change, so he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

"Looks like this kid's figured it out."

"Tong" means to have grasped the true essence of the boxing technique, a sign that one is about to enter the path of mastery.

Meng Chuan's fire-elemental true energy changed from swirling flames to solidifying into a single mass.

It's gathering momentum, like molten lava erupting!
Each punch seemed to gather, condense, and compress the fire energy between heaven and earth into a single point at the tip of the fist, unleashing a burst of flames!

His eyes gleamed, his mind completely absorbed in the true essence of the fist technique:

According to the manual, the [Molten Core Flame Burst Fist] is derived from the Five Elements Universe Fist.

Its training methods also incorporate modern technology, making it a product of a standard modern boxing research lab.

As a low-level true skill, it contains six forms.

The sequence consists of the following moves: Molten Core - [Sparkling Wildfire], Earth Vein Eruption - [Lava Burst], [Explosive Flame Chain], [Crimson Serpent Lock], the ultimate skill within these moves [Sunset Strike], and the final recovery move [Heart Fire Returns to its Source].

After finally completing the first round, aside from the stumbles during the ultimate move, the moves were now connected seamlessly.

However, Meng Chuan felt no joy whatsoever; instead, he harbored some doubts.

He always felt that something was missing.
Martial arts moves are continuous, delivered in a smooth, flowing motion, rather than requiring a retraction and a change of stance.

He always felt that its internal techniques, like Lava Pierce and Explosive Chain, lacked similar control-like moves.

Meng Chuan typed it out again, but his doubts only increased.

The Crimson Serpent Lock followed by the Setting Sun Strike, in combat terms, is a combination of entanglement and control followed by a powerful critical strike.

There was nothing missing, but the more he thought about the other styles, the more something seemed off.
The true essence of martial arts is present, and its six consecutive strikes can be connected normally.

But his mind and body kept telling him that something was wrong.
This is due to martial arts principles, or rather, the remarkable understanding of the Five Elements Fist.

He "realized" it, but there was something lacking in it!

After practicing it again, he sensed that he had grasped the basics of the technique and looked at the panel.
At the same time, upon seeing this scene, Lu Zhuxiao clapped his hands and laughed:

"It's done!"

Looking at the information on the panel, Meng Chuan was not as happy as Lu Shi.

It's done, but not completely done.
[Fist Technique]

[Molten Core Flame Burst Fist - Fragment: Beginner (1%) - Awaiting Limit Break]

[Limit-Breaking Trait: ?]

"Completeness of the cultivation technique: 66%"

Meng Chuan frowned, repeatedly pondering whether there was a problem during practice.

Lu Zhuxiao noticed something was wrong. Although he was surprised, he stood quietly to the side and did not disturb him.

As he flipped through the cultivation manual, he kept reviewing the process of learning the basics in his mind.

I suddenly realized that this didn't make sense.

Upon further reflection, a sudden flash of insight struck me.

[This is the complete manual for the Molten Core Flame Burst Fist. Take it and learn it; consider it my reward for your mastery of the Martial Arts True Teachings.]

He thought to himself:
"Could it be that Professor Li is lying to me? Is this just an incomplete manuscript?"
Or is the other party also still researching it, and therefore unsure if it is complete?

Seeing Meng Chuan deep in thought, Lu Zhuxiao assumed that he had had another epiphany.

So he quietly left without disturbing them.

Meng Chuan immediately denied the second question.

A quick glance through my memories brought back the words Professor Li had said when he piqued my interest.

The other party finally said that this method was a genuine, high-level fire-attribute fist technique, not an incomplete version.

As a martial arts master, if his martial arts principles cannot be fathomed, is this method the complete text or a fragment?
Meng Chuan did not believe it.

The reason why this fragment contains the "true essence of martial arts" and who imprinted it is obvious at a glance.

During practice, he could feel that something was missing from some of the moves.

A martial arts master and founder of martial arts techniques, yet I can't sense it?

This doesn't make sense. Although his understanding of the Five Elements and the principles of fire-based martial arts have made great progress recently, he still can't compete with the fifth major limit.

"Perhaps...they want to test me?"

Just say it directly, why hide it?
Meng Chuan was no longer the naive and innocent person he used to be; after a little thought, he sorted things out.

In summary, Li Zhenyue's purpose was to test my talent, but he wouldn't say it outright; he definitely had ulterior motives. Luckily, I had the control panel, otherwise I would have fallen right into his trap.

When they practiced with great enthusiasm, they discovered problems and even thought they had made improvements to the original techniques, so they went to claim credit.

Little did they know, it was originally just a fragment!
"No, if I didn't have the control panel, I probably wouldn't be able to see the other person either."

Effort and performance are both essential.

After thinking it through, the next step
Meng Chuan simply tossed it aside and instead focused on cultivating the three-rate five-element characteristics.

Why bother practicing this incomplete version when there are countless complete versions available in the martial arts pavilion?

The basics are the essence of true skill, and the Yong'an Campus of the United University certainly has no shortage of them.

While it may not be said to have everything, it does have a few books on each of the five elements.

As a true disciple of the Martial Arts School, he could learn the techniques from the corresponding teachers without spending many credits, so he didn't need to be attached to this particular technique.

As he practiced his boxing, he continued to ponder:

"I wonder if that old Deng plotted against me during the [Five Thunderbolts] incident."

Lightning-type techniques are rare to begin with, and in the Yong'an campus, there isn't another original lightning technique at the intermediate-level true skill level.

Thinking of this, Meng Chuan felt a little reluctant to part with it.

He had high hopes for this method.

Whether used by the deity itself or activated by the Five Elements Heart Fire Thunder Regulation;

Whether it transforms into the "Ancient True Man" or utilizes the power of the Dao Heart, its power is terrifyingly immense.

"Let's try it out first after a while, then we'll know."

Three days later, Meng Chuan finished practicing and stood in front of the mirror admiring himself.

In the mirror, under the warm yellow light, he looked like a large block of tungsten steel.

The veins flowed and roamed along the meridians, making the muscles, which undulated like mountains, appear even more ferocious.

With a thought, his body surface began to shimmer with golden specks, driven by the Golden Venerable's breathing technique.

[Baoxiang Jinzun Gong: Beginner (3%) → (4%) Awaiting Breakthrough]

"This method is indeed difficult to master. Even with the blessing of the Flesh Flower [Flesh Wisdom], it's impossible to achieve even 1% proficiency in a day."

The flower-shaped mark on his chest was faintly visible as Meng Chuan carefully experienced his physical body.

"There haven't been any changes yet, because my physical foundation is already quite strong. I'm afraid there won't be any substantial effects until I reach a proficient level."

He had anticipated this; cultivating multiple hard skills is not about stacking sheets of paper higher and higher.

It requires accumulation; it's a process of quantitative change leading to qualitative change.

"Enough. Walking is meditation, sitting is meditation, speaking and silence, movement and stillness, all bring peace to the body."

This is a Buddhist verse that Meng Chuancai learned, which speaks of wisdom in daily practice.

There's no need to rush; every action is a form of spiritual practice.

At the same time, he also realized something while reviewing the materials:
The previously envisioned "true form of the Great Tathagata" atop the illusory body of the Lesser Tathagata.
It is impossible.

In Buddhism, the word "false" does not refer to true or false, but rather to "the temporary manifestation of causes and conditions coming together."

The term "small illusory body of the Tathagata" refers to a small portion of the physical body that the Tathagata manifests in the world, which is a "manifestation" based on people's imagination.

In other words, Meng Chuan guessed that it would be a certain amount of power added to oneself.

The extent of its power will only be known after it breaks through the limits.

In Buddhism, "false body" refers to a non-real entity.

If it is the true form of the Great Tathagata.
That's equivalent to being possessed or having one's body taken over.
"."

That's incredibly disrespectful!

Meng Chuan shook his head to stop thinking about it. He didn't believe in these things, but he respected them.

Regarding Buddhism, there are many different kinds of things, such as true body, Dharma body, false body, and incarnation.

Meng Chuan studied related topics a few days ago, and his head was about to explode.

Now he no longer gets bogged down in details; he just wants to be able to understand Buddhist practices, not to become a "Buddhist master."

However, he has recently been setting aside about half an hour each day.

While watching the news, learn about Buddhism.

I suddenly realized the profound meaning behind it and benefited greatly from it.

During lunchtime, Meng Chuan's phone vibrated, sending a task notification.

[The "Meng Chuan Team" is requested to assemble at the Operations Department of Yong An Police Station at 3 PM the day after receiving this text message.]

Please prepare the necessary equipment in advance. If you do not have armor but possess an "Armor Certificate," you can obtain temporary military armor from the Equipment Department.

Meng Chuan put away his phone and calmed himself down.

"We won't bring Tiger Soul; just prepare the Moonlit Bridge and the Ferocious Beast."

Those demonic leaders who had undergone multiple ascensions were naturally restrained by Inspector Long Jiu and other powerful officers from the police station.

Their task is to "assist".

Meng Chuan's idea was simple: to eliminate all demonic disciples below the first level through physical extermination.

Now, fully armed, it wouldn't be difficult for him to do this.
After the meal, Meng Chuan and the three Longhu brothers went to Chen Qiushui's office together.

For missions involving Grandmaster-level students, prior notification to the person in charge is required.

Inside the office.

After reviewing the three people's tasks, Chen Qiushui said frankly:

"This mission is quite difficult, involving the High Priest of the Summoning Temple who has undergone six ascensions."

Even if Inspector Lung Kau handles the situation, the three of you must do one thing: stay away from the battlefield where those two are.

"understand!"

The three of them said in unison.
