The Favored Son of Heaven

What was the training of the Head of Department of Martial Arts, Asura Fenghua Danyun?

This was one of the strange secrets of the Sacred Martial Hall. It was obvious that many people had been trained by the Head of Department of Martial Arts. However, no one had ever explained what kind of training they’d received after the training. Their strength had been boosted in a short period of time.

Even long after the training had ended, without the training from Asura Fenghua Danyun, the strength of the trainees continued to make phenomenal progress.

Qin Fen was very curious about how Yang Lie improved his strength so quickly in this short period of time.

Qin Fen stood in a room that resembled a ball and looked at the surroundings of the room. There were no weird training facilities nor normal training facilities.

Emptiness, it was just a special room that was huge and empty.

Since he entered this room, Qin Fen noticed that the complexion of Yang Lie had changed a little. He became cautious suddenly, like a lone wolf who was hunting in the jungle.

Alert, sharp, in a high state of combat preparation; this was Yang Lie when he entered this special room. His strength of the ten stars had been raised to its limit, whoever stood next to him would feel the chill that was released from his body. The Ancient Chinese Gods Divine Art of Yang Lie had reached the peak of its operation.

Shua!

The light in the room turned off completely in an instant. The bright hall had turned pitch dark.

This sphere-shaped room had no windows. When the door behind him closed, there was no place for light to enter.

Before the lights were turned off, Qin Fen had already closed his eyes.

The vision of a person under a well-lit condition would have difficulty adjusting when sudden darkness befalls them.

The room became silent as the room fell into darkness.

No one here was a martial artist without psychological qualities. Needless to say, even if there was a sound of rapid gunpowder explosion after the lights had been turned off, no one would feel nervous because of these unexpected things and be frenetic.

Qin Fen opened his eyes slowly. This was indeed a pitch dark room with no trace of light shining into it.

The atmosphere seemed to have become serious.

Qin Fen’s moved his eyes slowly. The atmosphere in the room became heavier, not because of the high-tech gravity environment modification equipment, but for other reasons: oxygen!

The oxygen in the room was decreasing rapidly! It was impossible for everyone to consume that much oxygen within such a short period of time. There was only one possibility: the air had suddenly become thin!

Qin Fen nodded his head gently. This room must have equipped with special equipment to consume large amounts of oxygen in the air to create a relatively oxygen-deficient environment.

“Hey?” Qin Fen suddenly noticed that the gravity in the room was changing. The gravitational forces did not increase, but instead…

In just a few seconds, this weird room had created a state of weightlessness, as if they were in a space shuttle.

Oxygen is getting thinner? Weightless state? Qin Fen turned his head and looked around. What was the purpose of doing this?

Su!

In the dark, an extremely sharp and rapid wind sounded suddenly in the room.

As a young martial artist of the actual combat sect, he knew that it was the sound of a martial artist moving forward at high speed.

Expert! Ambush! Qin Fen’s eyes lit up suddenly. The dark room had recovered a gleam of light in an instant. The young martial artists managed to see the ambusher who appeared suddenly with this gleam of light clearly.

Asura Fenghua Danyun was still so beautiful at this moment. However, her face and eyes were no longer pure and innocent, but full of thick battle intent.

Her beautiful white face and the thick battle intent would give people a sense of special beauty with one glimpse.

Qin Fen didn’t have time to admire the beauty of Asura. That sudden kick in the dark! The attack was quick and ruthless. The sound from the friction between clothes and the air could be heard. The kick added a bit of strangeness in the darkness, as if her whole leg was a snake that burst out suddenly from a hole.

Viper spray! This was a move that relied on both hands in the Snake Fist. Fenghua Danyun performed it with her leg, making it special.

A faint thought of gratitude rushed to Qin Fen’s mind. The bone fracture on his arm had not recovered fully. If he attacked Fenghua Danyun with his arm, it would definitely make the injury more severe and difficult to heal. Therefore, the opponent would replace the attack of a fist technique with a kick technique.

The Head of Department of Martial Arts was the real master amongst martial dao masters, maybe even close to the Grandmaster. The change of the fist technique to a kick technique was natural and attacked the front of Qin Fen immediately. It was also accompanied by the aura of death. This kick was really like a snake that had opened its mouth and was not merciful because of his injury.

Yang Lie stood at the distance and watched carefully. This was one of Asura’s various training: death training. As soon as one enters the actual combat situation, Fenghua Danyun would prepare for the bottom line of the opponent’s strength and attack without mercy to have the trainees be in the state of life and death.

This was not training, it was a real battle between life and death.

Pa! A whistling sound of a whip sounded in the air as Asura Fenghua Danyun attacked Qin Fen with a Soaring Snake Walks the Fog. She abandoned Qin Fen and appeared in front of Caesar as if she teleported while her shoulders shook lightly!

Thousand Buddha Palm! The splendid winning palm technique by The Martial Madman was used by Fenghua Danyun and it was in a completely different realm! Snake Fist, Tiger Claw, Deer Fist, Bear Paw, Monkey Play!

The air screeched due to it being torn by her palms and fists. It was like the variety of sounds made by a large number of animals in the mountains and they rushed out from the forest. Caesar only felt the winds of the wild. He remained on the spot and he was as calm as an emperor who faced thousands of troops and horses.

His footsteps were lifted suddenly and it stomped toward the ground underneath. Caesar’s figure swayed and his fists were like the two gates of the imperial palace.

The hands met in the middle from left and right. His ten fingers were opened like ghost claws and they scratched toward the shoulders and arms of Fenghua Danyun.

Closed Passes and Sealed Countries of Emperor Fist! This was an offensive-defensive move that was realized by Caesar after he read ancient history. Both hands moved in front of his chest which defended his door firmly. If he was able to grab the arm or the shoulder of the opponent, then the next move would be Opened Port!

By the time, this close and open! These two forces would split the tendons and bones to the limit through the twisting of body muscles!

An order from the ancient emperor: Closed Passes and Sealed Countries. That was the power gathered from the world to achieve so, what other power could stop this?

Opened Port was a power that even the emperor also could not stop in the torrent of history! Caesar had followed Qin Fen along the way and his understanding of martial dao had gradually become more profound. Coupled with Asura’s attack filled with the aura of death and the thrill of The Martial Madman’s Thousand Buddha Palm, it made him take a step further in martial dao. This move not only had the emperor’s style, but it also had a faint scent of history.

“Ah?”

Fenghua Danyun was surprised. Her slim waist twisted and she disappeared again in front of Caesar. A shadow of Saint’s hook slammed toward Solomon’s head.

Qin Fen’s eyebrows twitched repeatedly when he saw this scene. In the battle of weightlessness, it was normal that the true strength of the fists and feet were not exerted fully. It was a hundred times more difficult to control the physical movements. This Fenghua Danyun freely advanced and retreat naturally in this state. It seems that she was completely unaffected by this weightlessness.

The moment surprise flashed in Qin Fen’s mind, Fenghua Danyun had finished her ambush on the other young martial artists. She returned to Qin Fen with the move Zebra’s Tread.

At this moment, Qin Fen only realized the departure of Fenghua Danyun had used a power no stronger than an eleven-star class to attack everyone. After each strike, she attracted everyone to her side and a ring of young people was formed, surrounding Fenghua Danyun.

By the time Qin Fen realized it, the others had also realized this situation.

Entering the state of siege? No one had the slightest idea of stoping and being polite. Their respective finishing moves were endless. The air in the room was vibrating from the fierce battle of this fist. Their roars were like the warzone of a small street terrorist attack.

One second… ten seconds… thirty seconds… one minute… three minutes…

Time passed by quickly. Fenghua Danyun was surrounded but she was not at a disadvantage. Instead, she counterattacked frequently and dragged the people causing them to not being able to leave the battlefield for any adjustment and rest.

Five minutes… Caesar felt a hint of fatigue in his body and it became difficult to breathe.

Ten minutes…

The power of the fists of Caesar, Yang Lie and others had weakened significantly. Their speed and responses were not as great as they were initially.

Fifteen minutes passed, and only Qin Fen and Xue Tian were still fighting with Fenghua Danyun. The others stood still with their hands on their hips to catch their breaths with their mouths wide open.

After half an hour, Fenghua Danyun stopped her attack. Qin Fen and Xue Tian also began to pant heavily.

Amazing! Qin Fen looked Fenghua Danyun with admiration as the lights turned back on. Battling under the weightless state to train everyone’s adaptability to the environment and coordination of the body. The vicious attacks made everyone completely forget that this was training and had them treat it as a battle of life and death.

The most amazing thing was that the thin oxygen in the air. The fierce battle would have slowed down the flow of blood in martial artists to carry out a lot of oxygen transport. When the body lacks oxygen, it was easy to cause fatigue and it would result in the body’s ability to react and judge dropping dramatically.

It was not a simple physical training, but it was better than any so-called weight training.

“Any thoughts?” Fenghua Danyun stared at Qin Fen with great interest.

“Thoughts?” Qin Fen thought seriously and said, “Allocate the amount of oxygen transport reasonably to make the body more adaptive to the anaerobic battle.”

“That’s right.” Fenghua Danyun had a little more appreciation in her eyes. The white slender fingers snapped, “The benefits are not just limited to these. After a long period of training, the body will develop the ability to gradually store oxygen and will make the cell body stronger.”

Qin Fen listened and nodded repeatedly. Multiple compounded training was carried out in one session. Fenghua Danyun, the Head of Department of Martial Arts, had her ways.

It’s just…  there were doubts in Qin Fen’s eyes. If this was the only type of training she did, it definitely would not have improved Yang Lie’s strength rapidly in such a short period of time, especially the improvement of his true energy and internal art. The help from the content of this training could be said to be very minimal.

For martial artists, internal art was the basis for all extreme skills and it was also one of the important foundations for determining the outcome of a battle.

Qin Fen could repeatedly not fall into the disadvantageous position in the battle, because one of the key points was the quality of pure energy.

Internal art was something that gave all martial artists headaches.

An excellent internal art could make martial artists who were qualified practice faster than others to a certain extent. The power displayed would also be stronger.

However, the internal art must be cultivated and upgraded little by little. Even if it reached the fury phase of strength, it was impossible that the strength soared to a higher star-class level overnight. It only helped in the speed of absorbing the aura to develop its potential during this time to be faster, causing the strength of star-class to grow rapidly.

In about ten days, although the star-class strength of Yang Lie did not enter the eleven-star class, the growth rate was still very amazing.

Qin Fen knew that the growth of Caesar and others were due to the thrill of the new revised internal art and had rapid growth in a short period of time. However, from the looks of today, the true energy growth rate of Caesar and the others were obviously not as fast as back then.

How did Yang Lie do it? Qin Fen’s eyes stared at Asura full of doubts. This should be the strongest training method from this woman.

“What are you thinking ah?”

Asura Fenghua Danyun had adjusted the oxygen level of the room back to normal. The constant change in the amount of oxygen would aid the martial artists’ body to adapt to different environments.

“Thinking about the improvement of internal art ah?”

Qin Fen nodded lightly to Asura’s question. Xue Tian held his katana as a crutch to support himself on the ground and there was a light of interest in his eyes. The ears of Caesar and the others also perked up.

The rapid growth of internal art was very, very interesting to any martial artist.

Fenghua Danyun patted her hips and sat down on the ground with, “Why would martial artists have fury phase ah?”

A simple question puzzled every young martial artist who was present.

This question… not only the people in the room were unable to answer. Even if the entire Federation was asked, Qin Fen doubted anyone would be able to answer it.

What was a fury phase? How was the fury phase formed? How fury phase could be extended? How fury phase could be created?

These had become the subject of many experiment labs in the Federation. A large amount of funding had been poured into these martial dao research laboratories that researched martial dao in order to uncover this mystery.

However, no matter what kind of methods and advanced instruments the scientists had used, they still couldn’t find the difference between the body of martial artists who were in the fury phase and martial artists who are not in the fury phase.

It could be said that large amounts of funding were poured into this subject but no one had ever really gotten a result.

Today, Asura Fenghua Danyun raised such a question, how could everyone not be surprised?

What was the fury phase? Qin Fen once asked his master but the answer from his master made Qin Fen very depressed. The Atlantis people did not have a fury phase of strength growth.

Because of this reason, the master automatically did not need to research how the fury phase of strength was formed.

“Active.” Fenghua Danyun smiled and the emotion of self-confidence and pride emerged from her eyes, “I call it the active period. In a special period, the body of martial artists who are in the state of the special active period cannot be detected by instruments. During this time, the absorption of martial artists is like the aura of heaven and earth and the development of the body is far more advanced than at any other time. Therefore, the internal art will rise rapidly and the star-class strength will be able to raise again and again repeatedly.”

Active? Everyone’s eyebrows frowned. This argument had been raised by many scientists, but there was not a way to prove it.

A theory that could not be proven had no value.

“This kind of active period starts from the dantian region.” Fenghua Danyun’s expression had a hint of admiration, “The human body is really amazing. This active state is a natural existence. It is completely impossible to analyze with scientific instruments and also impossible to control them, to make a person active from an inactive state.”

Everyone nodded once again. This kind of thing had been said by countless scientists, otherwise, it would be impossible to have only a few divine beast level martial artists in the world.

If it could be controlled, the Federation would have already arrived at the state that divine beasts would be everywhere and people at the Grandmaster level would be as many as dogs.

“When entering this active state, the cultivator can train harder to absorb the aura quickly and develop his potential to enhance his strength under the active state.” Fenghua Danyun smiled and raised her right index finger, “However, is such cultivation correct? No! This is only the most primary state. All the martial artists of the Federation are only ever in this state.”

Primary state?

Fenghua Danyun smiled at the doubtful crowd, “Is the active state the peak? No! That’s just a natural ability! What if you use special techniques to stimulate the activity level to increase the activity level?”

“The growing speed of internal art would be faster.”

Everyone looked at each other and saw the same answer.

“This so-called activity level, many scientists wanted to use instruments to stimulate martial artists in order to help improve their activity level and demonstrate that the theory of activity is correct. Unfortunately, they failed.” Fenghua Danyun crossed her fingers and supported her beautiful chin, “In fact, this kind of activity level can’t be controlled by technology. In theory, the more effort the cultivator puts in, the higher the insight on martial dao the cultivator will have. It will increase its growth invisibly. The so-called martial dao geniuses, they are able to make this kind of activity stronger during the active period.”

Caesar and others turned their attention to Qin Fen, who was indistinctly the strongest among them. His understanding of the martial dao was indeed more advanced than a lot of people. That was why his growth rate of true energy was faster than the others. This was something that everyone could not deny.

“Then, can the activity level be that broad?” Fenghua Danyun talked to herself as she shook her head and laughed, “In fact, the activity level is not only that broad, it can also be specific. For example, if I change the activity level into numbers to measure, so it can be understood fully at a glance.”
