Martial Arts Across the Heavens: Becoming a Martial God Starting from the Big Boss in Tangshan

Ming Jin, also known as Gang Jin, refers to the strength that is both strong and clear.

It's about training the strength of your whole body so that when you throw a punch, the air explodes with tremendous power.

As the saying goes, "A single sound is worth a thousand pieces of gold," this is the realm of Ming Jin (明劲).

Hidden strength, also known as soft strength.

Building upon the foundation of Ming Jin (明劲), this involves further refining mental strength and physical attributes.

Adjusting the center of gravity of the spine and tailbone into place allows the muscles, bones, and outer membranes of the whole body to flow smoothly, generating hidden strength. This is what is known as "opening up the Ren and Du meridians".

The main meridians along the spine are the Ren and Du meridians. The vital energy generated by exercise in the body is transformed into hidden force and released through the pores.

Transform the force.

It is said to be able to penetrate the whole body and regulate the internal organs. The hidden power permeates the entire body, making it impossible to add even a feather or a fly.

"Of course, there are other classifications such as Dan Jin, Gang Jin, and Jian Shen Bu Hui, but those are all legends, at least I have never seen them."

Tang Long studied under several masters of Chinese martial arts, so he was quite knowledgeable about such matters and knew many experts.

But he had never even seen a master at the Dan Jin level, let alone those at higher levels.

However, he did not doubt the division made by his predecessors, but instead kept trying to explore and attempt to reproduce the martial arts.

It's a pity that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't find his direction.

Just when he thought he would never see the next level, he unexpectedly discovered Chen Wen!

Just by watching him make a move, you can learn the Golden Dragon Fist.

This talent is truly astonishing, which is why he values ​​Chen Wen so much.

After hearing the explanation, Chen Wen was also somewhat tempted.

With his own cheat code, who knows how far he can go?

He was also very curious about Tang Long's situation.

"Brother Long, what level have you reached now?"

Tang Long did not answer, but instead clenched his fist and swung it sharply.

Snapped!

A crisp sound rang out.

He simply threw a punch into the air, yet it produced an explosive sound!

"A single sound is worth a thousand pieces of gold!"

Chen Wen understood instantly, but was somewhat disappointed.

"Huh? Brother Long, you're so powerful, yet you're only at the Ming Jin level?"

He originally thought that although Brother Long couldn't possibly be at the Dan Jin level, he should at least be at the An Jin level, but he never expected that he was only at the Ming Jin level.

But it seems quite reasonable.

The current Brother Long has only just founded Jeet Kune Do and has not yet truly integrated his own martial arts philosophy.

If he has more time to reflect, he will definitely be able to make further progress.

Even if he had more time to further his studies in Jeet Kune Do, advancing to the levels of Hua Jin and Dan Jin would not have been a problem at all.

The problem is, time...

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar Brother Long in front of him, Chen Wen suddenly felt a strange sadness.

This is the world of movies; perhaps Brother Long can have enough time here.

However, even Ming Jin can be so powerful.

How skilled were the martial arts masters of that era?

And Chen Wen himself, who could clearly defeat more than a dozen thugs on his own, was still considered a nobody.

Wouldn't it be even worse to face guns and cannons?

Fortunately, they only attacked gangs, not warlords. Otherwise, if each of them had a submachine gun, even the most skilled among them would have been riddled with bullets.

Chen Wen felt a wave of fear wash over him.

He couldn't understand, was martial arts really that difficult?

Tang Long noticed that Chen Wen seemed a little down and explained:

"Levels of understanding are determined by people, and shouldn't be viewed so rigidly."

"For example, if you surround me with a gun, even if I'm incredibly skilled, I can't withstand it. But if I just stop you from getting your gun beforehand, wouldn't that solve the problem?"

"Besides, if you can hold a gun, so can I. As I just said, fighting is fighting, and training is training. We're doing this to improve our physical fitness and push our physical limits."

"If it really comes to a life-or-death battle, I'll use whatever weapons I can find, like knives, guns, and clubs. If I could, I'd blast you with missiles, not submachine guns!"

"But you don't need to think about that."

"Now, practice your martial arts!"

Accompanied by stern voices.

Tang Long's demeanor instantly changed, and he transformed back into that strict and demanding teacher.

The grueling training has begun again.

On the training field, sweat flew everywhere, and the sounds of fists and feet cutting through the air were endless.

Chen Wen was like a tireless machine, striving for perfection in every movement and giving his all in every exertion.

Tang Long provided careful guidance from the side, his eyes filled with satisfaction and a hint of barely perceptible amazement.

Chen Wen's talent, perseverance, and astonishing speed of understanding Jeet Kune Do's core concepts far exceeded his expectations.

This made him exceptionally dedicated to teaching, wishing he could impart all the knowledge he had acquired throughout his life.

The two practiced and shared their moves.

"Waist! Waist needs to follow! The force breaks at the waist!"

"That kick was too hasty. If the opponent had taken even half a step back, you would have been out of position... Good! That interception was interesting! The timing was perfect!"

While parrying and dodging Chen Wen's swift attacks, Tang Long accurately pointed out the subtle flaws in Chen Wen's exertion or transitions.

Under such high-intensity training.

System notifications kept ringing in Chen Wen's mind.

However, he was now focused on following Tang Long's instructions and had no energy to pay attention to these things, or even notice the system prompts.

After a short rest, the two leaned against the corner of the wall, catching their breath.

Chen Wen's gaze involuntarily swept over the busy workers, and he frowned slightly.

Everything that happened today made him feel uneasy, especially about Boss Han...

He was deliberately testing the guy, trying to alert him.

But an old fox is an old fox; not only did he not deny it, he even took the opportunity to place himself on a moral high ground.

Even if people discover any problems with him in the future, it has already been explained now.

Boss Han got involved in organized crime entirely for the sake of everyone.

At that time, people will not only not hate him, but will be even more grateful to him.

But is it really that simple?

Chen Wen glanced at Tang Long beside him; he trusted Brother Long.

To be honest, Brother Long is definitely world-class in martial arts, but it's hard to say about other aspects.

For example, he mistook the solicitation of streetwalkers for their enthusiasm and went with them directly, which earned him a cold shoulder from Sister Miao.

For example, their unique ways of relaxing before a big battle are quite hard to describe.

If he was also deceived by Boss Han.

Chen Wen fell into deep thought.

Over the next few days, he resumed his investigation inside the ice factory.

In the end, nothing was gained.

Ice is just ice; it's pure and transparent, without any suspicious powder or impurities.

The warehouse contained ordinary ice blocks, emitting a cold, chilly aura, and there was nothing unusual about them.

"Am I overthinking things? Have I been misled by the movie plot? Is Boss Han really a good person who is willing to face pressure to help his compatriots?"

Chen Wen really couldn't understand it, so he could only keep the matter to himself.

"Brother Wen, thank you."

Just as Chen Wen was completely baffled, he suddenly heard someone greet him from the side.

He quickly turned his head to look, only to find that the other person was somewhat unfamiliar.

"Who are you……"

The man didn't seem to care that Chen Wen didn't recognize him; he remained grateful.

"Brother Wen, I'm one of the people you and Brother Long saved a few days ago."

"I'm also from the mainland. I came to Southeast Asia hoping to make a fortune, but I almost got my kidney ripped out and my heart ripped out. If it weren't for you and Brother Long, I would be dead!"

"Of course, I also want to thank Boss Han for letting me work here."

"Our compatriots are truly the best!"

As he spoke, he wiped away tears from the corners of his eyes.

After all, anyone who has been through such a hellish place will cherish life immensely.

Seeing the other person's appearance, Chen Wen felt deeply moved.

He finally understood why Tang Long, with his exceptional skills, would work for Boss Han.

Tang Long wasn't after the reward money; he wanted to save lives.

He was also starting to have some concerns. What if Boss Han really had a problem? What would happen to the factory? How would the workers continue to be employed?

Perhaps I should speed things up; having my own territory would allow me to save and help others.

Those people he saved will be the best core members.

Thinking of this, Chen Wen patted the other person on the shoulder.

"Everyone's escaped now. Work hard from now on, and I'll help you make a fortune if the opportunity arises!"

"Really? Brother Wen! I'll remember your words!" The man's eyes lit up, and he excitedly continued to move the ice blocks.

I am full of expectations for the future.

Looking at the other person's appearance, Chen Wen felt deeply moved.

Our compatriots in this era have suffered many hardships, whether they are in their hometowns or have left their homes.

The difficulties and dangers he encountered far exceeded his imagination as a person from the future.

Fortunately, every day of the future is getting better and better, which is something to look forward to.

Chen Wen didn't think he had any great abilities.

But if given the opportunity, I will certainly lend a hand.

For example, right now.

Chen Wen quickly glanced around, considering who could form his initial team.

But suddenly, he frowned.

Many new people had joined the factory, and Chen Wen knew they were the same people he had saved before.

But strangely, many of the older workers have disappeared!

What's going on?

Their ice-making factory isn't some high-tech industry, so they don't have any "striver agreements" or "35-year-old layoffs."

Why are there new workers and the old workers gone?

Moreover, even if the factory did do that, those old workers would still have known each other for a while.

Why did you leave without saying a word?
