Chapter 156: Chapter 142 Innate Gang Qi, Deviation

Wu Li took a step forward, and his body reacted naturally.

Snap!

His buttocks clenched, and the muscles in his waist stretched so tight that his clothes bulged noticeably, like a startled python violently rushing to his back.

In an instant, Wu Li’s entire spine was also driven by the explosion in his buttocks, arching and surging, the large muscles on his back bulging, even stronger than when Gao Zheng had fully exerted his Eagle Spread Wings!

With that transfer of energy, Wu Li’s whole body was explosive, each muscle like a barrel of gunpowder, bursting instantly!

"Rotating the legs, the buttocks clench," this indicated that the Xingyi Fist Power had reached all over the body, as round and unified as one, having cultivated the large buttocks.

As the saying goes, "Lift from the gut, power reaching the extremities, rotate the legs, the buttocks meat intersects!"

After mastering Xingyi Fist, there was talk of the Dragon and Tiger Power, the human spine like a mighty dragon, the waist and hips as the tiger, when power is exerted, the two large buttocks muscles can touch each other, clenching, the anus lifting, the spine like a great dragon breaking out, surging and rising along the back.

This type of Kung Fu is known as "Tiger’s hip, Dragon Tail," and the power released is the Dragon and Tiger Power.

It’s actually a method to enhance power emission, better combining Ming Jin and Dark Force, and whether it is Ming Jin or Dark Force, using such a method to strike, the power will be stronger.

After Wu Li’s Xingyi Fist reached the Master Level, he could also release the Dragon and Tiger Power, but such full-out bursts required preparation in advance, seldom having the opportunity to use it during real combat.

That day, when he used the Tiger Form Splitting Fist to knock down Guo Dongyang, he utilized the Dragon and Tiger Power, but if asked to deliver a second strike immediately after, he couldn’t maintain the continuity.

However, after using the Grandmaster-level Experience Card, Wu Li could almost instinctually achieve the buttocks clenching and spine surging.

Therefore, the second characteristic of the Grandmaster Realm is, being able to "Tiger’s hip, Dragon Tail," and freely utilize the Dragon and Tiger Power.

Wu Li stepped forward, using the Dragon and Tiger Power, and struck with his palm.

His whole body’s muscles and bones, with his emission of power, tightened and relaxed naturally, resonating with a sound like muffled thunder from the sky.

Whoosh! The palm wind drove the air, actually causing the glass window ahead to vibrate noisily.

There was a fist’s distance between Wu Li’s palm and the window.

It was rumored that Sword Immortal Li Shuwen, while practicing indoors, could strike the air with his palm, five feet from the window, causing a sheet of paper to tremble.

Five feet is about one and a half meters, and Wu Li was now less than a foot from the window, but Li Shuwen caused a paper window to tremble, while Wu Li was vibrating glass; if it were a paper window, he was confident he could achieve it within five feet, implying he was now very close to the realm of those Grandmasters.

"Is this the Innate Gang Qi?" murmured Wu Li, his eyes filled with shock, excitement, and joy.

The Fist Scripture states: "When muscles and bones exert force, trembling without swaying indicates Innate; when joints shift incrementally, exploding without making sound indicates Gang Qi."

Previously, when Wu Li fully burst forth, muscles and bones would crash like a bowstring being pulled, but now as he went all out, his muscles and bones vibrated, the sound deep and subdued, completely different from before.

Influenced by his grandfather, Wu Li was well-versed in the Fist Scriptures, and this strike, with the joints’ Inch Force erupting, was exactly like the Innate Gang Qi described in the Fist Scriptures.

"Innate, where all energies mix into one. Gang, the Qian Gang at noon, the utmost Yang. Those who achieve this realm are like ancient Sword Immortals, casting Qi into Sword Pills, slaying from a hundred paces, unseen and formless. Upon reaching Perfection, one can even ascend by daylight, living as long as heaven and earth."

This is a term borrowed from the terminology of Alchemy Dao to describe the highest realm in martial arts from some ancient scriptures.

Actually, these ancient scriptures often exaggerate, claiming ’Innate Gang Qi’ and ’casting Qi into sword pills’ would allow one to kill from a hundred steps away, which are also exaggerations.

The truth is that martial artists who reached this realm could use any muscle and bone in their body to execute a punch, and the Inch Force produced by the explosion of muscle and bone was so strong that ordinary people could be injured by mere touch and could die by just being near; to ordinary people, these martial artists didn’t appear to move at all, they only leaned or squeezed or casually pointed, and they would knock someone down, seeming to use an invisible ’Gang Qi’ to hurt people, thus the concept of ’Innate Gang Qi’ arose.

Therefore, the third characteristic of the Grandmaster Realm is: Innate Gang Qi!

Wu Li calmed his emotions and continued to punch, wanting to see if there were other characteristics in the Grandmaster Realm.

The inner energy in the room was turbulent, with a rumbling sound resonating like muffled thunder.

However, the more Wu Li practiced his punches, the more tightly he furrowed his brows. He felt that something was wrong all over his body!

For some unknown reason, the more Wu Li punched, the more discomfort he felt in his body, which was very awkward. This was completely different from the smooth, natural feeling he previously experienced while practicing punches.

Whoosh! As Wu Li threw another punch, his face changed and he abruptly withdrew the punch.

Wu Li exhaled deeply. He had just felt a faint pain in his internal organs, so he immediately stopped practicing.

Internal Fist emphasizes health preservation; the more one practices, the more natural and comfortable it should feel. There should never be a situation where practicing causes one’s internal organs pain. There is only one explanation for this situation: he had practiced incorrectly!

The higher the realm, the more severe the consequences of practicing incorrectly. Therefore, Wu Li stopped immediately once he noticed something was wrong; he didn’t want to become deviated.

But Wu Li couldn’t understand why this was happening. After getting the system, everything he exchanged from it was fine, and he had even used a ’Master Level Experience Card’ to break through realms earlier. Why did using a ’Grandmaster Level Experience Card’ cause an issue this time?

While the concept of Fist Intent in his mind was still churning, Wu Li resisted the urge to continue punching and began to think carefully,

"The system’s ’Grandmaster Level Experience Card’ should be fine, after all, everything else I’ve exchanged previously had no issues, only the ’Grandmaster Level Experience Card’ is problematic, which doesn’t make sense. So, is there a problem with this Grandmaster level itself?"

"Could it be that the system’s limit is just the Master level, and it doesn’t know about higher realms, so using a ’Grandmaster Level Experience Card’ caused a problem?"

"But if the system is unaware of the realms above Master, why would it specifically label them, and above Grandmaster there is even ’Legendary,’ which can be exchanged for with Fan Value, isn’t this misleading people?"

Wu Li felt his thoughts were in disorder for a moment. He originally had doubts only about the ’Legendary Realm’ provided by the system, but he was quite sure of the Grandmaster Realm since there were predecessors for comparison, yet he didn’t expect the system to fail at the Grandmaster level.

Wu Li sat quietly in the room for ten minutes, waiting for the ’Grandmaster Level Experience Card’ to expire, then slowly opened his eyes.

Thinking it over, Wu Li resumed punching in the room.

This time, there was no longer the awkward feeling from before, his punches were smooth, and his body felt much more comfortable.

Why was this? Wu Li stopped his movements and pondered deeply.

If he couldn’t understand this issue, even if he had enough Fan Value later, he wouldn’t dare to upgrade to Grandmaster.

Moreover, even without relying on the system, if he couldn’t understand the way forward, Wu Li might always be stuck at the Master level.
