234: Diamond finger force, specifically designed to break the indestructible diamond! [Explosive Update]

Lu Jiuyuan looked up and saw that although Cheng Shifei was still in a sorry state under the impact of the waterfall, his legs were slightly bent, and his center of gravity seemed a tiny bit more stable than yesterday, no longer relying purely on brute force to resist.

"Hmm, guide your True Qi to spread throughout your body, especially focusing on the three yin and three yang meridians of your feet. Only by rooting yourself in the rock can you stand firm."

Lu Jiuyuan gave a calm pointer. At the same time, the wisp of True Qi, compressed to its extreme, in his hand hidden in his sleeve, subtly changed its flow, simulating the Qi mechanism changes of "rooting" and "standing firm."

He was not only teaching but also simultaneously verifying and optimizing his own understanding.

Cheng Shifei, hearing this, tried hard and indeed felt his footing become a bit steadier.

Time flowed by amidst the roaring sound of water. Cheng Shifei was swept down again and again as his strength gave out, and then, after being allowed a short rest by Lu Jiuyuan, he would leap back up again and again.

And Lu Jiuyuan, seemingly just standing there, was in fact constantly conducting micro-manipulation experiments with the Qi and blood and True Qi within his body.

His understanding of the method of internal condensation for the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill was deepening and becoming more refined at an astonishing speed.

By the afternoon, when Cheng Shifei once again collapsed by the pool, not even wanting to Move a finger, Lu Jiuyuan walked over to him.

"That's enough for today."

Cheng Shifei felt as if he had been granted a great pardon.

Lu Jiuyuan looked at him, then suddenly extended his right index finger. A faint golden light flickered slightly at his fingertip; it wasn't dazzling but carried an extremely condensed and indestructible meaning.

He casually poked a head-sized stone next to him.

There was no earth-shattering sound; the stone, as if a red-hot iron skewer had been inserted into cheese, silently developed a smooth, round hole. The edges didn't even have the slightest bit of stone dust.

Cheng Shifei's eyes went wide, and he gaped, "Uncle... Uncle... What... What kind of martial art is this?"

Lu Jiuyuan dispersed the golden light from his fingertip, his gaze sweeping over Cheng Shifei's chest, and said calmly, "This is a martial art I just created these past two days. It's indestructible, specifically designed to break hard Qi cultivation and body tempering. Indestructible!"

Cheng Shifei looked at the pierced stone and swallowed. "How come I feel like Uncle is warning me? He is warning me!"

He looked at Cheng Shifei: "Practicing 100 martial arts once is not as good as practicing one martial art 100 times.

You have the top martial arts of the eight major Schools of Jianghu tattooed on your body; these martial arts can all be called first-rate.

But you have to take the Dragon Guard Manor's Yellow Badge secret agent assessment in five days. There isn't enough time, so it's impossible for you to master everything.

Therefore, you can only choose one from boxing, grappling, and movement techniques, and practice them until you are proficient."

"Your Aptitude and Comprehension Ability for martial arts are extremely high. Others need to practice martial arts Moves for several years or even more than ten years, but you can perform them after just one look.

This is an advantage, but also a disadvantage. Being too smart makes one prone to slack off and become arrogant."

Cheng Shifei listened in a daze, subconsciously touching the dense tattoo patterns on his body.

He indeed felt that he learned everything quickly. He could almost imitate seventy to eighty percent of the Moves he had seen, but just as Lu Jiuyuan said, he was mediocre at everything. Besides the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, which could only be used five times, he didn't have any other truly presentable skills.

"Uncle, then... which three should I choose?" Cheng Shifei asked, uncharacteristically humble.

"For boxing, choose Shaolin's 'Great Vajra Fist.' The essence of this boxing technique lies in 'collapse, shake, thrust, and shock.' Its power is fierce and overbearing, matching the characteristics of the immense True Qi in your body. Moreover, its Moves are grand and open, perfectly suited for your unrestrained nature to display, breaking skill with force, advancing fearlessly."

"For grappling, choose Kunlun Sect's Tendon-Splitting Bone-Dislocating Hand. This martial art is exquisitely varied, specializing in seizing joints and locking vital points. It offers infinite adaptability in combat, can compensate for the flaws in your Move transitions, and allow you to gain a significant advantage in close-quarters combat."

"For movement techniques, choose Wudang's 'Cloud Ladder Ascent.' This movement technique allows you to Move and turn like a Dragon swimming in the clouds, emphasizing sustained breath and changes in footwork. When practiced to a high level, you can borrow force multiple times in mid-air to change direction, which is extremely useful whether for pursuit, escape, or evasion.

Your profound Internal Energy is perfectly suited to support this movement technique, which consumes a lot of True Qi."

He paused, looking at Cheng Shifei: "These three martial arts are not known for their strangeness or unpredictability, but rather for their straightforwardness, combining 'strength,' 'skill,' and 'change.'

If you can master these three in a short time and use them in conjunction, it will be enough to handle most situations."

Cheng Shifei felt that every word Lu Jiuyuan said hit the nail on the head, as if he understood his own messy martial arts better than himself. He quickly nodded:

"Okay! Everyone says listening to Uncle for a while is better than eating pork for ten years. I'll listen to Uncle!"

Three days passed in a flash. The two left the roaring valley and returned to the Number One Estate Under Heaven in the capital.

Several days of extreme tempering made Cheng Shifei feel as if he had shed a layer of skin, but his spirit and Qi were completely different from before.

Although he still occasionally revealed his unrestrained nature, there was a hint of calmness and focus deep in his eyes, and his Qi subtly became a few shades more profound in his movements and posture.

He no longer seemed like before, having a treasure mountain but not knowing how to use it. At least for the three chosen martial arts, he had a preliminary understanding and control.

Inside the Number One Estate Under Heaven, Princess Yunluo had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing Cheng Shifei, though slightly tired, full of vigor and spirit, with much of his previous impulsiveness gone, she couldn't help but beam with joy.

She then looked at Lu Jiuyuan: "Uncle, you've worked hard."

Lu Jiuyuan nodded slightly in response. His gaze swept over Cheng Shifei, and he said calmly, "Remember the feelings of these past few days. Martial arts Moves are dead; their ingenious application lies in the mind.

The fierceness of the Great Vajra Fist, the intricacy of the Tendon-Splitting Bone-Dislocating Hand, and the agility of the Cloud Ladder Ascent must be thoroughly integrated, not used mechanically."

"Got it, Uncle!"

Cheng Shifei patted his chest, full of confidence, "I feel full of energy now. That Yellow Badge secret agent assessment, it'll definitely be no problem!"

Seeing his appearance, Yunluo couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

Lu Jiuyuan saw the expressions of the two but said no more. He had already added a lot of pressure to Lord Protector; the rest was up to them.

He waved his hand, his tone returning to its usual flatness: "Alright, you two go back on your own.

Remember, don't disgrace me in the assessment two days from now."

He deliberately emphasized the words "my" slightly, causing Cheng Shifei to shiver and quickly promise: "Absolutely not! Uncle, rest assured!"

Yunluo also bowed gracefully: "Thank you for your guidance, Uncle. Yunluo and Cheng Shifei will take our leave now."

Lu Jiuyuan said nothing more, turned, and walked towards the deeper parts of the Manor, his figure quickly disappearing among the pavilions and terraces.
