"Ah?"
Zhang Xuan is taken aback.
The speed at which he turned his body wasn't fast and he didn't exert much strength. How did Master Lu Chen end up flying?
Could it be that he was jumping for fun?
"Master..."
Zhang Xuan hurries over to help the other party up. He raises his hand behind him.
"I'm fine..."
Sou!
Before he can finish his words, Master Lu Chen feels his entire body lighten. He tumbles forward and crashes headfirst into another bookshelf. His face is filled with books.
"I..."
The master is on the verge of tears.
Are you toying with me? Do you need to use so much strength to help me up?
"Master..."
Seeing his state, Zhang Xuan is about to rush forward to help him up when Master Lu Chen struggles to his feet. "You... Don't come over, I can do it myself!"
"Er..."
Zhang Xuan can only stop. He blinks his eyes in bewilderment and looks at the elder before him doubtfully. He can't help but ask, "Master, are you jumping for fun?"
"Jumping for fun..." Master Lu Chen is on the verge of tears.
The heck, you are the one who is jumping for fun, your entire family is jumping for fun!
I'm a dignified master of calligraphy and painting, such a refined person. How bored must I be to jump around by myself for fun? Besides, even if I were to jump for fun, I wouldn't do it here! These are my collection of books, my treasures...
Master Lu Chen feels a stifling sensation in his chest and he finds it hard to breathe.
"What's wrong? Does your chest feel uncomfortable? "
Zhang Xuan walked up to him, intending to massage his back.
"No..."
Peng!
Just as his fist lands on the other party's back, before Master Lu Chen can finish his words, his eyes narrow. Sou! He leaps forward and crashes headfirst into the wall in front of the study. His face is covered in dust and a huge hole is left in the wall.
"Master..."
Seeing him dash out once more, Zhang Xuan scratches his head in confusion.
What is this master trying to do?
To jump backward and dash forward at the same time, is he suffering from epilepsy?
If he is really suffering from epilepsy, he can't just ignore him. He immediately rushes forward to help him up.
"Don't come over …"
Master Lu Chen wipes the blood from the corner of his mouth and retreats hurriedly. He looks at the young man before him as though he is looking at a monster and he is on the verge of tears.
I only felt suffocated. I wasn't seeking death. You hammered down … Ouch, my old arms, my old legs …
"Master, what's going on?"
Seeing him like this, Zhang Xuan could no longer hold back.
You were so calm before, but why are you jumping up and down now? What are you trying to do?
"What's going on?" Master Lu Chen looks at Zhang Xuan as though he is looking at a monster. He is on the verge of tears.
Don't you know what's going on?
I was afraid that your cultivation would go berserk, so I went over to warn you out of goodwill. Yet, the next moment, you turned around and sent me flying. After which, you ran over and threw me away. Furthermore, your final blow was even more vicious. If not for the fact that I still have some cultivation, I would have lost my life in that blow … Yet, you are asking me what happened?
Just as he was about to fly into a rage, he noticed the perplexed look on the young man's face. It didn't seem like he was putting on an act at all. A thought flashed through his mind, and a look of disbelief surfaced in his eyes. "You... Did you achieve a breakthrough earlier?"
"Yeah!"
Zhang Xuan nods his head.
Cultivating the Heaven's Path Golden Body should be considered as a breakthrough!
"But … Even if it is a breakthrough, it shouldn't be possible for one to improve so quickly …"
Master Lu Chen finally understands what is going on, but he still finds it hard to believe.
Some people use certain unique methods to increase their cultivation by leaps and bounds. However, their bodies are unable to adapt to the sudden increase in strength and they might lose control over it. What he sees as normal exertion of strength, in the eyes of others, looks like exertion of strength.
It is just like how you possess a strength of 100kg and using a tenth of your strength to lift a cup or something like that doesn't mean much. However, your strength suddenly increases to 10000 kg and you are still using a tenth of your strength to lift the cup. A strength of 1000kg is more than sufficient to shatter the cup!
There is a high possibility that Zhang Xuan is in such a situation. His strength has suddenly increased so much that even he doesn't know how much it has increased. Yet, he is still using the same actions as before. Naturally, he is unable to withstand it!
He has read about such situations in the books before. It takes a long period of time for one to adapt to such strength.
Initially, he thought that it was just a legend, but to think that … Such a thing really exists!
However, he can't believe that this fellow, who was just standing by the bookshelf and staring blankly into space for a moment, would suddenly wield such great strength?
Could it be that he coincidentally stumbled upon a certain book and had an epiphany, resulting in a breakthrough?
If that is the case, then he is really too unlucky!
"Follow me to the lounge!"
Puzzled, Master Lu Chen doesn't speak any further and leads the way.
It is simple to know whether this is the case or not. All he has to do is to find the Strength Measuring Rock Pillar and test it.
Since the young man is looking for a Fighter 6-dan cultivation technique, he must not have achieved a breakthrough. Without reaching Fighter 6-dan, the strongest Fighter 5-dan pinnacle would only possess 4 ding of strength!
If his strength exceeds this, it would mean that he has indeed improved by leaps and bounds.
Then, the situation previously makes sense.
… … …
In the lounge.
Huang Yu and Bai Xun have yet to leave. They are still seated in the room, looking in the direction of the study anxiously.
They are here on business, but Master Lu Chen brought them away after testing Zhang Xuan. They didn't even have a chance to speak, so naturally, they are unable to leave. They can only wait helplessly.
"Xiao Yu, just now … Master Zhang Xuan, has he really reached Fighter 5-dan pinnacle as well?"
At this moment, Bai Xun no longer views Zhang Xuan with hostility. Instead, there is a tinge of excitement.
Actually, he doesn't have much interest in painting. If not for his father forcing him, he wouldn't have come here!
To him, what he is interested in is his cultivation.
He only feels excited when he meets an expert.
He has always thought of himself as a genius. To be able to reach Fighter 5-dan pinnacle at the age of eighteen this year, it can be said that his cultivation speed is extremely fast. There aren't many in the entire capital who can match up to him! To think that this inconspicuous young man, who isn't much older than him, would also reach such a realm!
How can he not be excited?
"I don't know either. I've already told you that he only came to my shop to buy books … I don't know anything about him! However, since he is looking for Fighter 6-dan cultivation techniques, he should have reached Fighter 5-dan pinnacle! "
Huang Yu says.
As Zhang Xuan hasn't made a move yet, they aren't clear about his strength. However, since he is looking for 6-dan cultivation techniques, he should have reached Fighter 5-dan pinnacle.
Otherwise, it would be useless even if he were to look for such a high level cultivation technique!
"To be able to reach such a level at such an age, I wonder how strong his fighting prowess is. I will go and have a taste of it later …"
Bai Xun chuckles.
He is a martial arts fanatic. To be able to compete with someone of the same cultivation realm and age, he is already unable to hold himself back.
Da da da!
Just as the two of them are speaking, they see someone walking in. Looking at the person, the two of them are stunned.
Master Lu Chen, who was still incomparably elegant a moment ago, is currently covered in dirt and blood. He walks over pathetically.
