Chapter 1227 - 719: Riding the Elephant, Sinking the Celestial Abyss, Cataclysmic Flood!
Ten days ago, Meng Chuan was the first to break through the ordinary horizontal training method he obtained from Shaolin, the "Baoping Vajra Body."
[Acquired Limit-Breaking Trait: Physical Sense (Low Level)]
Effect One: Subtle Physical Sense, awakening a small amount of deep bodily strength, requiring no accumulation, no exertion, great strength manifests naturally in every gesture;
Effect Two: Enlightened Physical Sense, the body’s feedback to impact, exercise, and pain becomes more sensitive, slightly enhancing the talent for practicing hard skills targeting skin and flesh.
Back when Meng Chuan assessed his feelings after the limit break, he commented:
Both effects are practical, yet also useless...
With the first effect applied, there is indeed a feeling of muscles being "awakened."
But not much, specifically, it increases strength by just under a thousand pounds.
In the martial artist stage when he first started training, Meng Chuan would excitedly exclaim.
As of now...
One can only say it’s better than nothing, the power increased in a day’s practice of the "Pramatma Elephant Body" might even exceed the subtle physical sense’s effects...
There’s no way around it, this is the huge gap between ordinary cultivation techniques and divine techniques.
As for effect two, it’s actually quite simple; it merely amplifies the effect of practicing the iron body through feedback from the flesh.
But the amount of enhancement truly lives up to the word "slight," as Meng Chuan did not feel any significant changes...
Meng Chuan slightly closed his eyes, silently consolidating his Qi and regulating his breath.
His expression was calm, without any trace of disappointment.
Given that it’s an ordinary horizontal training, he was content with obtaining two effects from it.
The primary goal of breaking the limit of this method is to integrate many hard skills focused on strength in the future, attempting to self-create a divine skill in the path of strength.
The "Baoping Vajra Body" can be included as part of this, not entirely useless...
However, today, the limit break of the "Puxian Elephant Body" is the main focus.
Buzz——
Meng Chuan, having meditated for a long time, now clearly reflected the many organs and meridians within his body, even down to the finer details.
Every cell is distinctly visible under his concentrated introspection!
This has already surpassed the usual introspection perception means of a martial artist.
This is Meng Chuan’s evolutionary method for cellular perception, combined with his control over the physical body, enabling him to achieve such minute observational experience.
His movements, though swift, were particularly precise, stimulating acupoints with greater accuracy than ever under the vibration of Qi strength.
After a round of Qi regulation in the Shanzhong area, Meng Chuan nodded secretly to himself:
"With my current iron body talent and physical endowment, there should be no accidents in breaking the limit of the low-level true skill’s hard skills..."
Simply put, there’s no need for laborious perseverance, the last 2% can be broken through in a flash!
In rhythmic motions and vibrations, his muscles, bones, skin, and membranes were transmitting waves of "force" inward, reaching deep into the roots of cultivation.
Meng Chuan’s Qi and blood circulated round by round, until a slight redness rose in his skin and flesh. Standing on the Arhat stance, his posture moved with it, assuming various poses neither hurriedly nor slowly.
The "Puxian Elephant Body" consists of sixteen poses, representing the sixteen horizontal training grand circulations, far from being ordinary low-level true skills.
Elephant Foot, Elephant Breath, Elephant Spine, Elephant Body Suppression... even the final pose of Riding the Elephant to Verify Truth!
Each movement flowed with elegance, rich with the aesthetics of the Buddhist sect, the Perfection Level circulation poses were vividly displayed on Meng Chuan, more than suitable as a Shaolin horizontal training textbook.
During the movements, he heard the sound of crunching bones one after another, each sound quicker than the last.
During his steps, his skin and flesh inwardly indented and vibrated, subsequently relaying to his bones and major tendons, until it reached the marrow core. He alternated between standing and lying, constantly aligning his posture with the grand circulation’s movements, as standard as if it were an invisible great hammer in the void, endlessly forging.
The "Puxian Elephant Body" trains the body into a Vajra skeleton!
Every movement is cultivation, every action is meditation!
In terms of the Buddhist sect’s principles of martial arts, Meng Chuan is now indistinguishable from a Shaolin grandmaster, essentially a treasury of martial arts in himself, where the Buddhist sect’s methods occupy but a small corner.
Who knows how much time had passed, as Meng Chuan concluded his movements, his muscles and bones throughout his body emitted crisp cracking sounds, these sounds forming a line, reminiscent of distant elephant calls.
"Hrmph!!!"
The roar of the elephant traversed the vast land, coming through across time and space.
"Phew!"
Suddenly opening his eyes, Meng Chuan’s internal anomalies abruptly ceased.
He exhaled a long breath, as if expelling all the laborious grinding of innumerable joints with this breath.
The condensed shot arrow-like breath split the rock in front of him into pieces, even as this breath continued grinding the fragments, emitting a "hissing" sound akin to waves eroding the shoreline.
A new internal transformation also drove his breath to greater vitality!
Nowadays, the destructive power of his exhaled breath arrow would be difficult for an ordinary first major limit martial artist to withstand!
Under the dark red sky, Meng Chuan inhaled and exhaled.
The surrounding invisible cosmic energy gathered around him in a vortex, his eyes blazing like fire as he opened them.
Extremely terrifying power exploded like a blast beneath his skin and flesh. His already incredibly powerful strength once again soared to unimaginable heights.
Standing there naturally, he felt an invisible repulsion growing around him, as if heaven and earth were desperately resisting this exaggerated "elephant"-like physique.
Once in the past, after Meng Chuan made some progress in his mastery of the path, this swelling feeling had long disappeared...
It’s back...this familiar sensation...it’s back again!
The feeling of resenting the sky with no ring, hating the ground with no handle.
Need to vent, need to expend.
Once the thought arises, it is unstoppable!
Battle!
Battle Zhao Linyuan once more!
"Zhao Linyuan senior’s divine skill second form ’Soul Lock of the Cold Abyss,’ I have never been able to resist it until now.
