Chapter 423: Chapter 422 Three Great Martial Arts (Part 1)

However, as Mu Chen dialed, he immediately left the room, worrying that he might disturb Liu Yuxi.

"Why hasn’t this damn rogue broken through to the Mythical Realm yet?"

As Mu Chen left, Liu Yuxi suddenly opened her eyes, feeling puzzled and muttered to herself.

"Damn it, kid, it’s six in the morning, why are you calling me at this time?" Mu Chen stepped out onto the balcony, and from the phone came the old man’s cursing.

"Old man, I can’t be bothered with your nonsense. I’m really puzzled about something. I am at the peak of the Legendary Realm right now, and my body already has enough energy for a breakthrough, yet I can’t seem to break through. What does this mean?"

"What did you say? What realm?" the old voice on the phone thought it had misheard.

"Peak of the Legendary Realm."

"You think realms don’t exist or what! Peak of the Legendary Realm, you trying to fool a ghost?!"

"I’ve obtained some spiritual objects. Plus, there’s the reason of the Ice Spirit Body, and the Divine Dragon Technique, as you know."

"So it’s those things, no wonder," the old voice softened.

"Old man, those aren’t the main point, are they?"

"Alright, don’t worry. There are two reasons you can’t break through. One is because of the Divine Dragon Body; after killing the Killing God twice, the Divine Dragon Body suffered a huge loss and might be taking this opportunity to absorb energy and recover. The second reason is the lack of the right opportunity, or perhaps needing some kind of stimulus," the old man said earnestly.

"Old man, you’re just stating the obvious, I already know all this."

"You brat, if you know it all why come asking me?" the old man scolded.

"I asked you to tell me what I don’t know."

"There are only these two reasons. Besides, what’s the rush to break through? Thick accumulation leads to swift success," the old man said, then hung up.

"This old man can’t be spending the night at some widow’s place in the neighboring village, can he? Why do I hear roosters crowing?"

"Forget it, the old man is right. Why rush the breakthrough? Building a solid foundation and accumulating strength subtly is what makes the strongest." Saying this, Mu Chen didn’t go back to his room but started practicing martial arts outside the villa.

At this realm, Mu Chen could count on only three martial arts sets to aid him; the first was the Shattering Heart Palm, the second the Returning Spirit Needle, and the third the Divine Dragon Blade.

Shattering Heart Palm was something Mu Chen got from a strong practitioner, a twist of fate. As for Returning Spirit Needle and Divine Dragon Blade, one came with the Seventh Needle of Divine Protection he obtained, and the other was a supplementary martial art of the Divine Dragon Technique. All three were incomparably powerful.

"Three martial arts, I’ve only grasped a part of them. I should use this time to practice more." Mu Chen said. First, he started practicing Shattering Heart Palm.

Mu Chen had only reached the first level of Shattering Heart Palm, which required physical contact to harm an opponent. Next, he intended to practice the second level: Spatial Heart Shattering Palm. This level allowed him to harm others from a distance, without any contact. If he could successfully master the Spatial Heart Shattering Palm, killing unseen would be effortless, and no one would know.

"The second level, let the power spread around, form seals, ready to converge and explode at any moment..."

Thus, Mu Chen silently recited the mantra for the second level and began his practice.

"Tomorrow is the day of the great divine battle. I must master Spatial Heart Shattering, even if I can only gather a sliver of energy, it will be my trump card." Mu Chen continued his training.

As time flew, Mu Chen spent an hour to practice Spatial Heart Shattering, gaining some control over it, then spent another hour researching the Returning Spirit Needle.

Returning Spirit Needle wasn’t as simple as he anticipated. If practiced to perfection, not only could it send the silver needle to unimaginable speeds, but it would also allow him to control the needles with his willpower, killing unseen, equally terrifying.

"I can’t even control the silver needles freely for three seconds! It’s too difficult," Mu Chen muttered, sweating.

"Forget it, I need to practice it slowly over time, step by step! Next, I’ll practice the Divine Dragon Blade."

Mu Chen spoke, and two small blades appeared in his hands. He wasn’t practicing the second blade technique of destruction, but the third technique of the Divine Dragon Blade – piercing. Only by mastering this third technique could Mu Chen unleash power beyond the Mythical Realm; it was his final ace.

Piercing wasn’t as massively destructive as obliteration, sweeping away everything; it was more like numerous silver needles transformed into blade energy, penetrating and obliterating everything, utterly terrifying.

Mu Chen could practice with ease because, over these past six years, aside from battling, he was comprehending various martial arts. It was only because his realm didn’t allow it, that he couldn’t deploy them. Now, although it was a stretch for his realm, it wasn’t impossible to execute.

Following the practice method of piercing, waves of formidable Sword Energy surged out, turning into silver needles, and burst forth. A swimming pool lay opposite Mu Chen, and the fearsome silver needle Sword Energy went straight down into the water; even with the water’s formidable resistance, the needles easily pierced to the bottom, a truly terrifying sight.

"Piercing is extremely terrifying! Even a legendary figure encountering me would have to give me some leeway," Mu Chen remarked calmly.

"Young man, impressive martial arts, very impressive." At this moment, a person appeared with a blink and complimented Mu Chen.

The newcomer was an old man dressed in Tai Chi clothes, probably in his sixties, a bit thin but tall. What mattered most was the old man’s aura, which was incredibly powerful. If Mu Chen’s recently unleashed force was a small stream, then this old man felt like a mighty river.

"Elder, uninvited visits aren’t often welcome," Mu Chen said, his gaze shifting.

Mu Chen hadn’t expected this seemingly ordinary person, if not for deliberately emitting an aura, would turn out to be a powerhouse above the Venerable rank.

"I’ve been presumptuous, but it’s rare for me to see such a promising young man. You must be in your twenties, an extraordinary feat!" the old man remarked.

"Elder, get to the point if you have something to say!" Although powerful, Mu Chen wasn’t afraid.

"Alright, I’ll get straight to the point. How about you become my disciple? I’m spending my retirement here in Nanwan District; we have plenty of time."

"Elder, please forgive me, but I have my own teacher."

"Kid, I’m very strong, very frightening," the old man’s expression changed as he spoke.

"I know you surpass the Venerable level, but I must decline."

"Who is your teacher? Let him come and duel with me," the old man spoke earnestly.

"Elder, my teacher is a God," Mu Chen said seriously.

"A God?" The old man’s pupils shrank in surprise.

"No wonder you could train such a disciple. I understand now. However, young man, I’m quite interested in you. Would you mind sparring with me for a few rounds?"
