Chapter 315: Chapter 314: The Way of the Fist is also the Law_1
“He actually self-taught cursed fists? No, should I say curse magic instead?” Even with their extensive knowledge, many senior brothers couldn’t help but be surprised.
The path of curses is related to causality. Both causality and time are universally recognized in the Cultivation World as the most difficult divine abilities to comprehend, learn and understand.
Unexpectedly, this Junior Brother Meng, at such a young age, self-taught and understood such a cruel curse magic skill.
“You’re actually asking if this is a fist technique or a magic skill, it’s clear you weren’t paying attention when Elder Sister was teaching!” A cultivator in the Divinity Transformation Stage looked disdainfully at a cultivator in Nascent Soul Stage who had cried out in surprise earlier.
“No discipline at all, how are you planning to advance to the Divinity Transformation Stage in the future?”
The Younger Sister in the Nascent Soul Stage hesitated. She was well-known in the outer world for her knowledge and was renowned and admired as a “talented girl”. But in the Seek Dao Sect, these characteristics are useless.
Who dares to call themselves knowledgeable in the Seek Dao Sect?
“Eldest Senior Sister has repeatedly stressed not to distinguish too clearly between fist techniques and magic skills. Fist techniques are ‘lee’, magic skills are ‘lee’. All these arts lead to the same end, if you want a clear distinction, how will you be able to comprehend all arts in the future?”
“It’s exactly because many people have this kind of misconception that they’ll end up mastering powerful magic skills, which are far more powerful than their opponents, but then, their opponents find opportunities to engage in close combat and they get defeated.”
Close combat is what practitioners whose focus is on magic skill fear the most. They dedicate a long time honing their magic skills and neglect their physical strength. Once they’re caught in close combat, they wouldn’t even get a chance to cast their magic skills, let alone ensure their safety.
The senior brother in Divinity Transformation Stage advised, “So the best state is to use fist techniques to execute magic skills. This way, whether it’s a long-distance fight or close combat, there are no cracks. Right?”
The junior sister in the Nascent Soul Stage nodded. Indeed, that’s the logic. Though she’s energetic, practicing both fists and magic skills without neglecting either, after hearing what the senior brother said, she felt she should really reflect on herself.
“Eldest Senior Sister also praised Lu Yang, saying that he has achieved this point and has shown signs of different paths leading to the same goal. He’s much better than you and me.”
“Although I don’t know to what extent Junior Brother Lu Yang has achieved, if Eldest Senior Sister praises him, he must have made some achievements in this aspect!”
Seniors lining up to challenge Lu Yang is one thing, recognizing Lu Yang’s talent is another.
…
Lu Yang, Tao Yaoye, and others were astounded seeing Meng Jingzhou reach enlightenment and comprehend the Sterility Fists technique.
Is there no justice in this fist technique?
The most shocked one is Qin Yanyan.
Before coming to the Seek Dao Sect, she was somewhat proud, thinking that she was only a little slower in cultivation progress than Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou. As long she worked harder, she could catch up.
She’s two months older than Li Haoran and has the same cultivation level as him. Li Haoran’s talent level can rank in the top ten among the younger generation, and she isn’t far off. She is fully qualified to become a disciple of the Five Great Immortal Sects.
It’s just that she has Su Yiren as her tutor, so there’s no need for her to enter the Five Great Immortal Sects.
She believed that even if she lagged behind top talents like Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou in the younger generation, the gap wouldn’t be too big. Just watching from the side, she should be able to learn something.
Now looking at this, it would be a miracle if she could learn this.
No wonder her ex-father, despite having the purest Fire Spirit Root, could only rank fifth in his generation.
It’s really hard to get into the top four.
Moreover, the top-ranked ones can make someone bald by using the Arhat Fist technique, and the second-ranked ones can make someone stay single for life using the Single Curse Fist technique. Are these two from the Seek Dao Sect or from the Suspension Temple?
Fairy Eternity, impressed by Meng Jingzhou’s fist technique, sighed, “So this is what they mean by ‘each new generation surpasses the last, leading trends for hundreds of years.'”
Lu Yang raised his eyebrows; this poem seems to be read like this, but he always felt that using it in this context might not be quite right?
“Does this fist technique have no limits?” Tao Yaoye was puzzled. Man Gu’s Ancestral Pill was within the reasonable range, but it didn’t keep up with the cultivation level of the ancestors. Could Meng Jingzhou’s fist technique ignore cultivation level?
Wouldn’t that make anyone who saw the fist technique run away?
Eldest Senior Sister watched Meng Jingzhou on the arena, who was quite smug for a while. She then withdrew her gaze, shook her head gently, and explained to everyone, “It’s not as exaggeratively powerful as you imagined.”
“Meng Jingzhou is at the Golden Core Stage, so his fist technique can only be used on cultivators at the Golden Core Stage or below. Furthermore, he has to be careful about backlash.”
“Backlash?”
“Yes, take Li Haoran as an example. Li Haoran’s fiancée is Su Yiren, who is a cultivator at the Unification Stage. So, Li Haoran’s marriage fate is tied to Su Yiren. Such a marital fate isn’t something that ordinary methods can sever.”
“If Meng Jingzhou wants to use the Single Curse Fist on Li Haoran, he’ll be backlashed because he isn’t as powerful as Li Haoran’s marital fate.”
“What will happen to Meng Jingzhou after he is backlashed?” Lu Yang was curious. Could it make Meng Jingzhou single as well?
If that’s the case, isn’t it the same whether there’s backlash or not?
Eldest Senior Sister calculated and said, “He might lose his causality with women for a while. Specifically, during this time, he won’t be able to interact with any women. He’ll avoid women due to various coincidences, or women will avoid him due to various coincidences.”
The Single Curse Fist seems to have major restrictions and risks of backlash. But think about it, who, like Li Haoran, has a fiancée in the Unification Stage at such a young age?
Li Haoran, who was listening by the side, was puzzled: “Isn’t the biggest backlash of Senior Brother Meng’s fist technique being chased after using it?”
Lu Yang: “…”
Thinking about it, Lu Yang agreed. Meng Jingzhou’s fist technique can’t kill people, so anyone hit by this fist technique would swear to pursue Meng Jingzhou until death.
“Just now, Senior Brother Meng said that his fist technique came with his Golden Core. But I’ve never heard of a Single Golden Elixir coming with this kind of fist technique, right?” Li Haoran was puzzled. He had looked through many notes on forming the golden core, including descriptions of the Single Body Golden Elixir, in order to form his golden core.
Lu Yang pointed out the flaw in Li Haoran’s thinking, “You got one thing wrong. Meng Jingzhou didn’t form a Single Golden Elixir, but two unprecedented Single Golden Elixirs.”
Li Haoran: “???”
Lu Yang continued, “If predecessors with Single Body Spirit Root didn’t realize this set of fist techniques, it shows that their singlehood is not as profound as Meng Jingzhou’s.”
“Lu Yang, you’re slandering me again! This is obviously a manifestation of my extraordinary understanding!” Meng Jingzhou, who had descended from the arena, glared at Lu Yang.
Lu Yang spread his hands as if he didn’t say anything before.
Man Gu slowly woke up and looked around blankly at the boisterous environment: “Did I lose?”
He didn’t have any memory after asking his ancestors for help.
Lu Yang replied sincerely, “Your ancestors were worried about losing their only descendant, so they conceded.”
“Huh?” Man Gu blinked, not understanding what had just happened.
Did Brother Meng have to use such a despicable move as monkey stealing peach to defeat him?
It wasn’t that serious.
“Lu Yang, come back with me.”
After leaving these words, the Elder Sister went straight back to Sky Gate Mountain.
The Seek Dao Sect disciples who were watching the battle dispersed. Some went back to practice, some went to Scripture Pavilion to read, some went on dates with junior sisters, each with their own duties.
Lu Yang jogged a little and managed to catch up with Elder Sister’s pace.
“Eldest Senior Sister, has Fairy’s kitchen been moved back?”
“Yes.”
In the Spiritual Space, Fairy Eternity’s eyes lit up.
