Starting to Gain Experience from Push-Ups Chapter 988 - 494: Constitution Enhancement, Qi Field and Domain_2
It was not just the air disturbance caused by True Qi Emission, but more like a spiritual will intervening in the material world.
Although this "Qi Field" was still immature, extending only about three meters around him.
But Fang Cheng vaguely felt that this should be a necessary path to a higher realm of Martial Arts.
If this "Qi Field" were to be continuously enhanced and expanded, integrated with an indestructible Martial Arts Will.
And even combined with the projection of the Great Sun True Fire in the Inner World...
Does that mean that when the Qi Field is fully matured one day...
He could have a move akin to those S-Class power users’ proud "Domain"?
In this Qi Field Domain unique to him, where his words become law and he controls everything.
Everything could become a weapon, vegetation could turn into sharpness, airflows could form blades.
With a single thought, he could draw a prison on the ground, trapping enemies; a circulation of True Qi could instantly change the world, reshaping the environment.
Even if he was trapped in a desperate situation, he could reverse the universe with this Domain, achieving the miraculous feat of bodily resisting a nuclear explosion...
As his thoughts wandered, the light in Fang Cheng’s eyes grew increasingly intense.
This time practicing Tai Chi Boxing by Cuihai Lake, the gains were far beyond expectations.
Not only did his skills smoothly break through to the Master Level, but his Constitution Attribute was also enhanced.
More importantly, in the process, he realized the integration of "Intention" and "Qi", truly mastering the Magic Technique of True Qi Emission, and even began to explore the mysteries of Qi Field construction.
"So that’s how it is..."
A hint of enlightenment suddenly rose in Fang Cheng’s heart.
The path of Martial Arts is not merely about piling up experience values or stacking a variety of skills.
Boxing, palm technique, Qigong, Visualization, Running...
These seemingly independent skills are, in fact, complementary and integral.
Constitution is the foundation carrying everything, Qigong is the force linking the inner and outer worlds, martial arts is the means to counter and defeat opponents, and spirit is the commander overseeing the whole situation.
Perhaps, when all skills finally integrate and completely fuse together.
Only then can he be considered as truly reaching the summit of Martial Arts, touching upon that legendary realm of "bodily sanctification".
As Fang Cheng immersed himself in his comprehension, the sounds in the distant lakeside running track gradually became noisy.
The citizens who came for morning exercises were increasing, breaking the original tranquility and restoring a bit of the breath of daily life.
Fang Cheng looked up at the sky; the sun had fully risen, casting golden light over the emerald green lake.
"Time to head back."
He quickly withdrew his surrounding aura, allowing himself to relax completely.
The edge as sharp as a drawn sword disappeared instantly, reverting back to a neighborly youth in sportswear, seemingly harmless.
Next, Fang Cheng set off, running along the path he came to the halfway mountain’s vacation house.
..................
The two-story villa stood quietly in the shade of the trees.
Ivory walls were covered with green vines, leaves still dripping with morning dew.
Fang Cheng ran along the mountain road, stopping in front of the slightly open wrought iron gate.
He went straight through the courtyard, came to the villa door, took out a key, and gently opened the door.
Inside, it was silent, with only the faint hum of the central air conditioning at the outlet.
The spacious living room was empty, with only the morning light pouring through the floor-to-ceiling windows, casting shadows on the leather sofa.
Judging by the situation, Uncle and Pan Wendi, having played cards all night, were still sleeping soundly, unmoved by anything.
Though unclear whether Chu Qiao and Bai Ling had woken up yet.
Fang Cheng changed out of his muddy running shoes, making no sound, and headed straight to the kitchen.
After all the exercise, his stomach was empty, perfect for making something to eat and preparing breakfast for the others as well.
Chen Xu’an was meticulous and thoughtful; the kitchen’s refrigerator was fully packed, with fish, meat, rice, flour, fresh fruits, and vegetables, along with a good stock of convenient snacks and desserts.
Just as he passed the living room’s hallway corner, Fang Cheng’s steps slightly paused.
A low-pitched conversation clearly reached his ears.
It seemed to come from the kitchen.
Moreover, the ones speaking were Lin Chuqiao and Ye Zhiran, who had returned at some unknown time.
"Professor, is it really impossible to try? Since your Formless Barrier can obscure the heavenly mechanism, it should theoretically transfer causality too."
Lin Chuqiao’s voice carried an unusual urgency, with a hint of pleading.
"Chu Qiao, you’re playing with fire."
Ye Zhiran’s voice was filled with deep helplessness.
"The principle of the Formless Barrier is to disrupt other spiritual ability users’ perceptions, confuse causal lines, and mislead trackers into overlooking the target, not to truly alter causality."
"You want me to temporarily graft Fang Cheng’s causal line onto you, which is not just deceiving the opponent but drawing fire to oneself..."
"I’m confident!"
Lin Chuqiao interrupted decisively:
"As long as I guide the clues of the Ideal Land’s tracking to myself, Fang Cheng can disappear from his sight."
"As for myself, I can also ensure safety."
She feared Ye Zhiran would refuse again, so she quickly presented her reasoning:
"I count as half a member of the Pan Family; Pan Family blood also flows in my veins."
"If Ideal Land intends to continue operating in Xia Country, it can’t recklessly target noble family descendants, especially top gate valves like the Pan Family."
"Like when they dealt with the Chen Family this time, they only operated in the shadows; after exposure, they remained inactive, willing to settle matters peacefully, which is proof."
"Xiao Chu, this is still too risky."
Ye Zhiran’s voice remained hesitant, obviously in disagreement:
"That person’s style of action cannot be judged by common sense. Moreover, once this causality graft is exposed, the consequences are unimaginable..."
"Professor, I also have foreknowledge ability."
Lin Chuqiao further strengthened her argument, speaking with uncommon conviction:
"Regarding danger perception, I am more sensitive than Fang Cheng. If that person truly focuses his tracking on me, I can detect the anomaly at the first instance, discern good from bad, and prepare in advance."
"But Fang Cheng cannot; he’s in the open, and once targeted by that man, it’s a deadlock."
Outside the door, Fang Cheng stood in the shadows, his brow slightly furrowing.
This woman is truly foolish...
He internally criticized her reckless adventurousness.
Yet beneath this reproach, a warm current seemed to brush against the softest part of his heart.
The conversation in the study continued.
Lin Chuqiao paused, her voice slightly lowered, revealing a hint of fear:
"Actually... I had secretly predicted before."
"You predicted that person?!"
Ye Zhiran’s voice suddenly rose, startled:
"Haven’t I warned you not to probe into him rashly? Chu Qiao, what you did was too reckless!"
"No, I’m not that foolish."
Lin Chuqiao hurriedly explained:
"Professor, I know beings of that level shouldn’t be spied upon lightly; once sensed by the opponent, one’s location would be immediately exposed."
"I merely used Fang Cheng as a Meditation Target, purely predicting his future fortune."
"What did you see?"
"A vast... darkness."
Lin Chuqiao’s voice turned somewhat ethereal, as if she were once more plunged into that suffocating nightmare:
"It was dark and cold, endless, as if trapped in a bottomless Abyss, sensing no sign of life around."
"I couldn’t understand what that place was, only groping blindly in the darkness, searching for any clue that could guide me or any feature that allowed me to keep observing the target."
"Suddenly, I finally saw it, a point of light flickering in the extreme distant darkness."
"That scene seemed like the universe heading toward extinction, yet a solitary star continued to burn tenaciously."
"I wanted to approach, observe closely, but consistently couldn’t."
"Multiple attempts repeatedly thwarted by an unknown force, forcing the premonition to break."
