Chapter 322: 0219 Fourth Rank Divine Seed (4k for double monthly tickets)

Golden Crow soars, Jade Rabbit runs.

Time hurries by, another month has passed.

After the last mission of the Vajra Group, Lu Chenzhou and Gu Lingtong became friendly, and Lufang naturally invited Gu Lingtong into the Vajra Group.

New members joined the Cross Training Martial Arts.

Most delighted was Wang Gang, who, after enrolling at Galaxy Martial University, advanced swiftly in his cultivation. Now at Eighth Rank, Lu Chenzhou was reassured by the fact that Wang Gang was taken as a disciple by Gu Lingtong’s father, the Cross Training Master of the university [Gu Shantong].

Gu Shantong, titled Unbreakable Taoist, ranked 23 on the Earth List.

This man, originating from the Daoist path, mastered Wudang Hard Qigong. The Cross Training Martial Arts that Gu Lingtong demonstrated was learned from him. Wang Gang having him as a master was a convergence of good timing, favorable location, and human harmony, which Lu Chenzhou believed would aid him greatly on his martial path.

Nearly a year had passed since high school classmates enrolled, and the strongest among them was still Liu Huan, now a Ninth Rank expert. As the gap in strength with Lu Chenzhou widened, classmates naturally contacted him less—a common occurrence.

When Lu Chenzhou went to Class 2 to visit two elder martial sisters, Liu Huan often lamented how swiftly time passed. After one recent gathering, the former class president expressed his sentiment:

"If we meet on our paths ahead, a simple ’friend’ encompasses vast changes!"

Lu Chenzhou found this quite profound.

...

July 3rd.

In the wee hours.

By Stone Lake, Lu Chenzhou moved like the wind, his legs surrounded by a faint whirlwind, allowing him to move as if stepping on air, fast as lightning.

When he sped up enough, Lu Chenzhou suddenly bent his legs and leaped, carrying a whirlwind filled with swirling leaves. When he jumped three meters high and began to free-fall, Lu Chenzhou stepped on the whirlwind as if stepping on water, and the tension bounced him up!

Buzz!

With another leap, Lu Chenzhou forcefully rose another three meters, finally losing momentum at the height of a six-story building. He wanted to repeat the trick but found that without stepping on solid ground, the wind generated was insufficient for leveraging.

Crash!

Lu Chenzhou’s foot emitted a golden light as the innate power interacted with the ground, creating a rebound that allowed him to slightly jump and offset the impact from the fall.

"Wow, isn’t this a double jump?"

In many games, double jumps were common. Yet, in reality, unless one was a Martial Artist with exceptional movement technique, it was hard to achieve.

Walking on water is easy since the surface tension is strong, and stepping on tree branches is even simpler. But stepping on air for leverage is too difficult. Even for a Martial Arts Grandmaster, it is impossible to step on air over long distances; that feat usually requires the cultivation of a Great Grandmaster.

To completely defy planetary gravity, one must be a Martial Arts King.

At that stage, flying no longer relies on movement techniques but on powerful energy fields reversing the body’s magnetic field, floating like magnetic levitation, traversing the heavens and the earth.

After his excitement, Lu Chenzhou looked towards the Martial Arts Tree.

[Gale Force Tiger Body: Perfection (can be integrated)]

[Divine Seed·Gale Tiger (First Rank), stored in the Yemen Acupoint]

The strong wind and the solitary tiger journey!

Effect 1: Tiger Form first level...

Effect 2: Tiger Skill first level...

Effect 3: Wind Step, with the good wind using its strength to lift me to the blue clouds, allowing one air-borne leverage movement.]

"Interesting, this is impressive."

Lu Chenzhou marveled, recognizing it as a truly divine combat skill. Why is it a taboo in combat and martial arts to jump high or leap? It’s because trajectories in the air are predictable, making it easy for an expert to counter.

But with this special effect, things would be different. Imagine, in a fight, when leaping into the air, feinting a move to mislead the opponent to an anticipated position, then back-jumping mid-air to fall behind and strike!

Unpredictable.

"Second-rate martial arts can also produce decent extreme effects. Compared to previous ones like [Blazing] and [Thunderclap], this [Wind Step] is far more practical."

Considering Lu Chenzhou’s current combat experiences, those two effects seem merely flashy with negligible damage to Martial Artists—typical for late-stage effects.

[Integrate?]

"Integrate!"

Shortly after, the Martial Arts Tree began to undergo dramatic changes, and Lu Chenzhou gained insight, suddenly starting to practice his punches.

Starting with "Black Tiger Fist," he executed third-rate fist techniques, followed by second-rate ones, and finally culminating in "Tiger Spirit Divine Fist." His four years of martial arts insight since he began his training, and his complete understanding of Tiger Form, were all embodied in his fist techniques.

After completing the sequence, Lu Chenzhou’s eyes were clear, experiencing an epiphany much like when he broke through to become a Martial Artist half a year ago. His prowess in fist techniques became more rounded and mature, exuding the temperament of a true master!

The Martial Arts Tree trembled without stopping, rustling loudly.

Inside the Inner Scenery Land, winds were gusting and clouds swirling.

In Lu Chenzhou’s spiritual world, the sound of a tiger’s roar resonated continuously. In a trance, his spirit spanned across eons and returned to that familiar mountain forest.

On the clifftop, a black resting tiger arose, its glimmering tiger eyes observing Lu Chenzhou, stern on the outside yet kind inside like a venerable teacher.

"Roar!"

The mighty black tiger roared softly, watching Lu Chenzhou immersed in his world of fist techniques. It was the Heavenly Heart Mark, the essence of countless forebears’ Tiger Form Intent, thus it recognized that the descendant before it was rapidly evolving his understanding of fist theory. When he reached a critical point, Lu Chenzhou seemed blocked by an invisible barrier.
