Xiao Chen, coming back to his senses, cleared his throat and said, "Everyone, I understand your doubts. Can human strength really reach such a level? Now, you have finally witnessed it."
It's not just the live broadcast; even the students from the Dragon Elephant Rock Stream were in shock for a long time after seeing this scene.
Li Qingling was even more terrified, realizing he was in the presence of such a terrifying figure!
Can Martial Path really reach such a degree?
"Grappling techniques, huh?"
After being rammed into the building, Lu Ren casually tossed aside a woman in business attire, saying in a buzzing voice.
Lei Zhao laughed, "The most essential combat technique of the Dragon Elephant Rock Stream Fist is grappling. Lu Ren, today you might just meet your match here! The Dragon Elephant Power triggers the earth dragon to turn over!"
Lu Ren chuckled, I'm not afraid of your grappling with my four arms.
He exerted his strength in reverse, firmly gripping Lei Zhao's hands with two of his arms, while the remaining two sought opportunities to strike in the tightest of spaces, aiming for maximum harm.
In this state of grappling, the pursuit was the greatest damage.
In the Ten Lands Great Accomplishment Golden Body Bodhisattva Path, there are also grappling techniques, combined with the three buffs of Spring and Autumn Overlapping, Giant Strength, Unyielding, and Overlord Body.
Lei Zhao regretted engaging in close-quarter combat with Lu Ren in an instant.
While they fought up close, just as the crowd reached the bottom of the building with excitement, the ceiling above the hall shattered suddenly, crashing down two tall figures.
Lu Ren, straddling Lei Zhao, combined the speed of the Phoenix Falcon Fist with the Phoenix Extreme Fist's power techniques, using all four arms to pummel Lei Zhao, leaving him powerless to fight back. Thɪs chapter is updated by n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net
Each punch landed as if shaking the whole building, causing Lei Zhao's body to break through the concrete and bricks, crashing into the steel bars, pushing him deep into the ground.
The hall's floor cracked, and shattered tiles flew like bullets, embedding and colliding in all directions.
Lei Zhao roared, "I surrender!"
Lu Ren ignored him, his fists crashing down, releasing murky white shockwaves; the terrifying power reached its peak at this moment.
Lei Zhao almost felt his bones about to shatter.
He shouted, "I've bled for my country, I've earned credit for the people! I've never oppressed ordinary people!"
Lu Ren sneered, the Buddhist script on his body glowing with a golden light.
With the force of four punches, Lei Zhao was completely knocked unconscious.
Lei Zhao couldn't die, much like he said, this person once fought bravely. Although his thoughts changed, seeing ordinary people as mere mortals, unable to maintain his true self, yet felt a celestial gap. His life form transformed, breaking limits and ascending after the Heart Eye opened, using spiritual vision to perceive the world from a perspective vastly different from ordinary people, seeing things others can't.
Seeing mountains not as mountains, seeing water not as water.
That's what it's about.
Thus, just making Lei Zhao unable to get out of bed for a year sufficed.
"Ding, you defeated a Bright Awakening Realm martial artist, your physique, and spirit gained significant skill levels."
"Ding, you defeated the Bright Awakening Realm martial artist Lei Zhao, your Phoenix Extreme Fist realm has improved; currently, it is at Slightly Accomplished."
No skill points gained?
Is it because he wasn't killed?
Lu Ren reviewed the system notifications that had just appeared.
After a while, Lu Ren slowly stood up, exhaling a breath of white air, which shot out like an arrow, shattering a decorative flower bed not far away.
He turned to look at the people standing by the hall entrance.
As his gaze swept past, the crowd collectively backed away, their faces full of fear.
He glanced at the broadcasting equipment on Xiao Chen's shoulder.
Xiao Chen sensibly turned off the broadcast.
Then, they saw Lu Ren's body rapidly change, reverting to a normal human appearance with bronze skin.
Xiao Chen clicked his tongue, "I understand why people have remained silent and enigmatic after you emerged. If you suddenly transformed on the street, you'd scare a lot of people."
Lu Ren looked down at his undamaged shorts, showing a hint of satisfaction. Fortunately, modern material technology was strong, allowing for the creation of remarkably elastic shorts that wouldn't pinch.
Lu Ren glanced at the clock on the hall wall.
"Let's go, that's it for today, we'll continue tomorrow."
Li Qingling took a look at Lei Zhao, who had already returned to normal, and left in haste.
Lei Zhao wasn't wearing the super-elastic underpants like Lu Ren.
On the way back to his dojo, which still lacked a nameplate, Lu Ren directly instructed Li Qingling to cook. The latter pouted and went off to work.
These ingredients were bought on the way back.
Xiao Chen sat opposite him, looked at Lu Ren, who was as tall as a mountain, and after a while, he nervously said, "Deputy Lu, should I massage your shoulders?"
Lu Ren chuckled, shaking his head, "That's enough, stop pretending."
Xiao Chen relaxed immediately, his expression excited, "Whoa, Lord Lu, do you know how many hearts you shook with this live broadcast? No one expected the top martial artists to be able to transform into a fighting Buddha. This kind of Ultraman summoning thing attracts everyone; the internet is already a storm.
You don't know how popular you are right now."
Lu Ren calmly sipped tea, slightly shaking his head, "These things will come to light sooner or later. Even now, in the Huaxia Martial Arts Conference, many martial arts experts exhibit strength beyond ordinary people."
Xiao Chen was speechless, "Yours was just too exaggerated."
He was filled with longing, "Bright Awakening!! I don't even know if I have hope of glimpsing it in my lifetime."
Lu Ren turned to look at the high-hanging moon outside the window.
"You'll have a chance, a great era is coming."
Not only is a great era coming, but he also has a premonition that the real world might undergo significant changes.
As it neared ten o'clock, Xiao Chen left, his mind full of thoughts. The Security Bureau hadn't inquired too much about Lu Ren's and Lei Zhao's battle.
In contrast, Ji Quanzhen called him, showing great concern in asking about the feeling of being in the Bright Awakening Realm as a systemic martial artist, expressing shock that Lu Ren could bring the Fifth Extremely Difficult to Conquer Land Bodhisattva Statue into reality. This Dharma Aspect entering reality surprised him greatly.
In conclusion, Ji Quanzhen straightforwardly said,
"Young man, are you sure you're on the right path?"
Lu Ren denied it, affirming that his path is undoubtedly a Heaven-Reaching Great Way, suggesting that Elder Ji's thinking is constrained because he's not young.
This is entirely because Ji Quanzhen preconceived notions led to such a situation.
Ji Quanzhen: "What step of Bright Awakening are you at now?"
"The Nine Steps of Bright Awakening, each has a different path, who's higher or lower, only a battle can determine."
The nine steps are the exploration of spiritual will on the path ahead, though they can still affect combat power, with spirit constantly rising, it can also directly feed back to the body.
