He really wasn't afraid of Gongsun Zhanglan. Although he was also a Spirit Focus expert who cultivated both inner and outer force, there was a difference in strength between those at the same level.
Although they were at the same level, he possessed three inner force skills, which was equivalent to a hundred years of cultivation for an ordinary person. If word of this got out, it would be shocking. No one would believe it at all.
Lu Sheng's other abilities aside, just by competing in inner force alone, he was already capable of exhausting someone to death.
Ever since his exchange with Li Shunxi, Lu Sheng had gained a deeper understanding of his own inner force skills.
Black Fury Skill was strong, but not as strong as he had imagined it to be. Rather, after being modified by the Modifier, it was too powerful. In an instant, he had a thick inner force that others would need decades to accumulate. Coupled with his reckless squandering of inner force, it would be strange if it wasn't powerful.
Moreover, he recalled that he had first cultivated Jade Crane Skill, and only started cultivating Black Fury Skill after the inner Qi of Jade Crane Skill had reached the level that ordinary people would take decades to accumulate. This way, when he truly used Black Fury Skill, he would have Jade Crane Skill as a backup.
With two inner force skills, Jade Crane Skill provided Black Fury Skill with an incomparably powerful Qi returning ability and inner force capacity. From the start, the power it unleashed was far beyond normal.
That was why it was so powerful.
Even a drop of water could pierce through stone, let alone an inner force like Black Fury Skill.
"Gongsun Zhanglan's Prime Mystic Palm is very powerful. Brother Lu, don't underestimate him." The old Sect Master was somewhat speechless. He felt that Lu Sheng was a little too arrogant.
"It's fine. What skill does Old Sect Master cultivate? I've often heard that Sect Master's name shakes the Northern Lands. Your cultivation is profound, and you're known as the Number One Expert of the Northern Lands. I wonder if you could give me some pointers? "
Lu Sheng suggested seriously.
He truly wanted to see who was stronger between himself and this Number One Expert of the Northern Lands. He had been fighting ghosts all this time, and the martial arts experts he had met were no match for him. He did not have a clear understanding of his own strength.
Therefore, he wanted to know what level of expert he, Lu Sheng, was in the martial arts world.
The old Sect Master smiled.
"I wouldn't dare to give pointers. This old man has only lived a few years longer than Brother Lu, and my skills are just that little bit deeper."
He slowly turned to face Lu Sheng.
"Since Brother Lu is obsessed with martial arts, then let's have a little exchange so that we don't get into a fight and hurt our friendship."
"Thank you, Sect Master, for fulfilling my wish!" He could finally clearly determine his own strength.
He and the old Sect Master stood several meters apart, facing each other.
"The so-called internal and external cultivation is the fusion of external strength and internal essence, energy, and spirit. "Concentration" is Divine energy. It's like the sky, boundless and boundless, as one. "
Old Sect Master Hong Mingzi smiled faintly. He bent his finger like a sword and jabbed it at Lu Sheng's chest at varying speeds.
Lu Sheng saw his finger clearly, but he had the misconception that he couldn't see it clearly and couldn't grasp it. He felt depressed and upset, nauseous and nauseous.
"Tiger's Roar!" Lu Sheng also used his palm as a saber and slashed out.
Under the strong explosion of the external force, the Internal Qi also surged and pushed the palm force forward. This caused Lu Sheng's palm to be as red as blood. As soon as it slashed out, it brought with it a faint gust of hot wind.
What a powerful inner force!
Hong Mingzi's expression did not change, but his heart was shaken to the core. Similarly, he quickly gathered his inner Qi, channeling ten percent of Ultimate Crimson Mantra's inner force. However, halfway through the move, he realized that he had still been too light.
Hong Mingzi hurriedly circulated 50% of his inner strength.
After more than eighty years of painstakingly cultivating his inner force, even half of it was still surging violently. His right hand carried the Quadruple Oscillation Force unique to Ultimate Crimson Mantra. With a precise finger, he tapped Lu Sheng's palm blade.
Bam!
Their palms, saber, and sword-fingers collided, producing the sound of heavy objects colliding.
Hong Mingzi's expression did not change, but his heart was in turmoil.
"Such a strong inner force is actually on par with my fifty percent success force?! This is unbelievable! "
He was using his sword-fingers, and the contact surface of his fingers was smaller than that of his palm blade. Although it was not to the extent of breaking through with a single point, with the same level of inner force, he would still have the upper hand.
Moreover, Ultimate Crimson Mantra was infinitely powerful, and had a significant advantage over ordinary mantras.
But even so, he actually …
Bam bam bam!!
The two of them collided several times. Lu Sheng retreated two steps, a blush flashing across his face. He felt that the strength surging out from his opponent's sword-fingers was not much different from his own. Furthermore, after the first burst, a second, and then a third burst of force surged towards him.
Caught off guard, he was struck consecutively, and actually injured some of his meridians.
"Sect Master's inner force is indeed strong! Your strength is strong. This junior is impressed! "This time, Lu Sheng's heart was truly shaken.
Among the ordinary people, the old Sect Master was the first person who could defeat him head-on. His strength was worthy of being called the number one swordsman in the Northern Lands. Even a head-on clash could force him to concede defeat.
After all, he was someone who cultivated three great inner force skills, and his total inner force definitely surpassed the old Sect Master's. Although he did not use his ultimate move, to be able to repel someone of his profound cultivation with his old body was indeed extraordinary.
"I'm old, I'm old …" Hong Mingzi's gaze was solemn as he looked at Lu Sheng in front of him. Now he finally understood why Lu Sheng was so highly regarded by Elder Wang. He even intended to send word to his eldest brother to come and take him as his disciple.
Nine-Directional Sword and Palm Wang Yuanshan … Heh heh heh, Hong Mingzi had not seen him for many years. He heard that he had made quite a name for himself in the Central Plains. Back then, the two of them were neck and neck. Who knew now …
"Brother Lu." Thinking of this, Hong Mingzi suddenly had another thought. "Your inner force is strong, and your inner force is extraordinary. You must have had a fortuitous encounter when you were young, and obtained a mystical item that increased your inner force?"
Lu Sheng was stunned, and then nodded hurriedly. "Sect Master is wise. I ate a red fruit when I was young, and since then, my inner Qi has increased day by day." He had been hesitating on how to explain the abnormal growth of his inner force. He did not expect the old Sect Master to ask about it, so he immediately found a cover.
"So that's how it is." Hong Mingzi was enlightened. "This is truly a great blessing. But although your inner force is strong, and not far from mine, your inner force heart skill is too weak …"
"Weak heart skill?" Lu Sheng looked at the old Sect Master's fingers after they had exchanged blows. There were no signs of being burned by the fire poison of Blood Fury Skill.
"There's no need to look. Your heart skill should be a fire poison inner force skill derived from poison skills. But this type of inner force skill focuses too much on poison, and lacks other effects. As for why this old man is not affected by the fire poison, it's because the Ultimate Crimson Mantra I cultivate is also a yang hard inner force skill. It has a total of seven levels, and this old man has already cultivated it to the sixth level. My inner force is like the flow of fire in a furnace, and I'm not afraid of fire poison.
"But the strange thing is, your inner force seems to be mixed with an aura that harmonizes Yin and Yang. It doesn't seem like a pure yang fire poison inner force skill," the old Sect Master said, then looked at Lu Sheng strangely.
Lu Sheng's heart shivered. This man was indeed the Number One Expert of the Northern Lands. He was so experienced that he could almost detect the other inner force skills in his body at a glance.
"To tell you the truth, Sect Master, the inner force skill I cultivate is mainly the Black Fury Skill I bought at an auction."
"Black Fury Skill?" The old Sect Master was stunned. "That body tempering inner force skill that has thirty-two levels?"
"Old Sect Master has heard of this skill?" Lu Sheng wanted to get some information on Black Fury Skill from the old Sect Master. This skill was too incomplete. If he could find a complete copy and cultivate it all the way to Level 32 in one go, who knew how powerful he would be.
He was only at Level Four now and already had such a strong inner force. If he could reach Level 32, the power would be unimaginable.
Hong Mingzi frowned deeply.
"Although the Black Fury Skill is said to have thirty-two levels, this mental cultivation method itself is just a theory. It's said that even the creator of this skill had only trained up to Level Six. The subsequent levels of the skill were all derived from his theory."
"Why did the creator only reach Level Six?" Lu Sheng asked curiously.
"Because at Level Six, he was attacked by fire poison and burned to death by the inner force skill," Hong Mingzi said calmly.
Lu Sheng froze for a moment.
So this Black Fury Skill was nothing more than a product deduced by a theorist? Just like the Heaven and Earth Great Shift in Jin Yong's wuxia novels? The later levels were all theoretical?
"So I suggest that you switch to another skill to focus on. I suspect that the person who released this skill harbors ill intentions and intends to experiment on others, "the old Sect Master said in a low voice.
"Do you know why the later parts of Black Fury Skill are incomplete? Actually, it's not that it's incomplete, but that no one could cultivate it and it was forcefully torn away. So the ones circulating in the market now are only Level Five, "he explained.
"Then wouldn't I have cultivated this inner force skill for nothing?" Lu Sheng was stunned.
"Not necessarily. It's easy to convert Black Fury Skill into a Yang-type inner force skill. As long as it doesn't clash with the meridians, "the old Sect Master said with a smile, stroking his beard.
"Old Sect Master means …?" Lu Sheng's heart skipped a beat.
"In Martial Proclamation Library, you can find the inner force skills you want. Apart from Ultimate Crimson Mantra, there are three other Yang-type skills you can choose from. You can try them out when the time comes. Of course, the free ones only have one level. If you want to get a higher level, you'll need to contribute enough to the sect, "Hong Mingzi said with a smile. "But Brother Lu, Little Brother's aptitude is extraordinary. This is too much of a waste of time. This old man has a way to bypass the sect rules and directly impart to you an extremely powerful Yang-type inner force skill. "
"Oh?" Lu Sheng was no fool. Naturally, he understood the old Sect Master's obvious hint. "Dare I ask what Sect Master is implying …?"
Hong Mingzi laughed heartily.
"This old man's Master, Mo Fei, is a great talent of his generation in the martial arts world. The Ultimate Crimson Mantra he imparted to me is extremely powerful and suitable for Little Brother Lu's cultivation change. It's much stronger than Black Fury Skill! If Little Brother Lu is willing, this old man is willing to accept you as my Junior Apprentice Brother on behalf of my Master! "
"Junior Apprentice Brother?!" Lu Sheng had thought that the Sect Master intended to accept him as a disciple. Little did he expect that the Sect Master would accept him on behalf of his Master.
Actually, Hong Mingzi had also considered whether to accept him as a disciple himself. But after sparring with Lu Sheng, he felt that the gap between their skills was not too big. Only then did he sigh in his heart. He knew that with his skills, it would be a stretch for him to be Lu Sheng's Master.
But looking at this fine jade of talent, he was worried that he would leave Crimson Whale Sect for other martial arts in the future.
If Lu Sheng could join Crimson Whale Sect because of martial arts, it was not impossible that he would leave because of stronger martial arts in the future.
Therefore, after much consideration, he came up with this move.
