Although he was forced to arm-wrestle with Du Ruo, Wu Jie had no intention of serious action. His strength has now reached an astonishing level, while Du Ruo is just nicknamed Tigress, and is not really strong enough to rival a tiger——
Even if she has the strength of a tiger, she is probably no match for Wu Jie.
So his plan was to pretend to compete with Du Ruo, and then lose naturally.
But when he held Du Ruo's hand, he couldn't help but be surprised.
Du Ruo's hands were strong and powerful, almost like iron pliers! When the two sides shook hands hard, the back of his hand was pinched by Du Ruo, causing slight pain!
"Strange! How did this tigress become so strong?"
Wu Jie's surprise was extraordinary. Du Ruo's strength was actually so great. But in the past when we got along, he had never noticed that the other party had such power!
But he didn't know that Du Ruo was actually more surprised than him.
Wu Jie is familiar with Du Ruo's details. How could Du Ruo not be familiar with Wu Jie's details? Although his sworn brother is clever and clever, strength has never been his strong point. Even after that period of hard training, he has only reached the level of
Just the level of an ordinary strong man.
In the past, her strength was much stronger than Wu Jie's. During this period of time, she has been practicing immortal magic so hard that her strength has increased many times. It should be said that she has far surpassed Wu Jie.
In fact, she was very careful at first, lest she might pinch Wu Jie's hand with excessive force.
But as soon as she clasped her hands, she knew that she had underestimated Wu Jie - the strength of this guy's hands was no worse than hers!
This is impossible!
Du Ruo was puzzled and put more strength on his hands.
Opposite Wu Jie, before he could figure out what was going on, a strong force suddenly came from Du Ruo's hand, pressing his arm hard against the table. While he was thinking, he subconsciously used his strength and pushed back.
The strength of these two people is so powerful. They both exerted their strength at the same time. Although they couldn't do anything to each other, the table under their elbows couldn't bear it. There was a "squeaking" sound first, and finally a solid wood tabletop cracked.
There were several large cracks, and then the "crackling" sounds continued one after another, and the four table legs broke together - in the blink of an eye, the table turned into a pile of broken wood.
Wu Jie and Du Ruo both reacted quickly. As soon as the table collapsed, they both stopped their strength and each pulled their hands back, so they did not fall. However, their eyes were not on the table, but looked at each other, both looking at each other.
Everyone saw a look of surprise in their eyes.
"Fourth brother, you have made great progress! Where did you learn this skill?" It was Du Ruo who spoke first, "It's only been a few months... You can't really succeed in seeking immortality, right?"
"Third sister, the same goes for you! My uncle can't teach you this magical power." Wu Jie asked, "Does it mean that you have been hiding your secrets for so many years?"
Du Ruo was dumbfounded, but then laughed out loud.
Before she could stop laughing, she had already sprinted past the pile of broken wood, raised her fist and hit him head on.
Wu Jie had already been on guard against her move. He raised his left hand to hold her fist, turned his body and was about to force him up from the side and knock her down with his shoulder.
But before he could turn around, Du Ruo had already hooked his lower leg with his kick, and at the same time grabbed his left hand and pulled hard, trying to throw him to the ground.
"If you don't have enough brute force, why don't you just throw it?" Wu Jie secretly laughed in his heart. He put a lot of force on his feet and collided head-on. The two people's legs collided firmly, making a dull sound like wood and stone colliding.
At the same time, his right hand turned into a fist and hit Du Ruo's left arm.
In the blink of an eye, the two people each staggered back several steps. The bluestone slab on the ground where they had just met was trampled to pieces. The two opposite footprints sunk in by almost four or five inches. From those two footprints to
Finally, each footprint gradually went from deep to shallow, clearly carved on the stone slab like an ax chisel.
By counting the footprints, we can see that in this fight, Wu Jie took four steps back and Du Ruo took five steps back.
"I...I actually lost?!"
Du Ruo stared at the footprints on the bluestone, his face full of disbelief, and even his eyes were a little dull.
"This is impossible!"
She roared, turned around and rushed out the door, roaring away like a mad bison, leaving only a pile of broken wood and many broken stone slabs on the ground.
Wu Jie stood there for a long time, then finally shook his head and sighed helplessly as he looked at the messy shop.
"Has this guy... changed his profession from Tigress to Typhoon?"
However, he was still a little worried after all. After tidying up the shop, he leaned on the counter and pretended to be asleep, and asked Jasmine.
"Master, there must be something wrong with your sworn sister!" Jasmine said categorically, "There is no martial arts in the world that can make a person leap from an ordinary martial artist level to the acquired peak in five months. This is not a mortal Kung Fu ability at all.
Something that can be done!”
"I think so too...will she also get immortality?"
"It's not like that. People who have obtained the fate of immortals often concentrate on cultivation and cultivate a vitality in their bodies, in order to achieve the state of returning to the innate state. This process is called foundation building... There has always been the only way to concentrate on retreat and practice in order to build the foundation.
I’ve heard of people wandering around and even making trouble with others when they’re building a foundation.”
"How long does it take to build a foundation?"
"This depends on each person's qualifications, the skills they practice, the resources they obtain, and some other factors. Like the Dragon Control Sect you mentioned before, it took more than thirty years of practice to become a Taoist. Although I don't know exactly what it is.
What realm, but it is probably not much higher than the foundation building. This must be to allow the disciples to fully change their physiques so that they can immediately form combat effectiveness after the foundation building. However, most sects will give priority to pursuing the realm, and the disciples will be faster than a month, and slower.
In half a year, the foundation construction will definitely be completed..."
"The gap is too big!"
"For those who are cultivating immortals, it doesn't matter whether it's ten years or a few months. Anyway, after the foundation is established, the lifespan reaches one hundred and fifty years or more. There is plenty of time to slowly pass by." Jasmine said and laughed again.
, "Master, when your cultivation reaches a certain level, you will understand that in the eyes of those who are successful in cultivation, it is really nothing to let young disciples spend ten or eight years polishing their mind and body. If you can use this method
If you give them the possibility of improving even a little bit further, it will be a huge profit!"
"In this case, why do most sects prioritize the pursuit of realm?" Wu Jie wondered, "Isn't it good to let the disciples spend a few years building a solid foundation?"
"Each sect has different techniques. For example, sects that place great emphasis on combat effectiveness in the foundation-building stage take the path of martial arts. Disciples must continue to take risks and fight in order to grow smoothly; but most sects are not like this.
Extreme... Even if a disciple in the foundation building stage can fight, at best he can sweep across the entry level, and will definitely lose when he encounters the Yuan Gang level. The gap in the big realm cannot be made up by small tricks."
"But I want to emphasize that fast speed does not necessarily mean better. If you lay a solid foundation in the front, you will make faster progress later; if you make rapid progress in the front, you will have to spend a lot of time and energy to consolidate your realm later. Those who practice very quickly
The techniques often have various hidden dangers, such as weak foundation, poor combat effectiveness, short lifespan, etc. If it is fast and has no hidden dangers, it probably consumes a large amount of resources, or has abnormal requirements for qualifications -
-In short, there is no shortcut to Taoism!"
What Jasmine said was quite simple. Wu Jie understood it immediately. He thought about it and asked about Du Ruo again.
"Can you tell what kind of technique she practices?"
"I didn't pay attention just now. Next time you fight her, I'll take a closer look." Jasmine said with some embarrassment, "But I can be sure that what she practiced was not the top technique of the various sects back then, and it was probably not even the same technique.
A more powerful technique."
"Why?"
"...If she really practiced those powerful skills, you would have been slapped away long ago."
Wu Jie was stunned.
After chatting for a while, Wu Jie ended his conversation with Jasmine and concentrated on wondering where Du Ruo learned the Immortal Cultivation Technique.
It is certain that the Du Ruo in the past definitely did not know the Xian family's Kung Fu, otherwise she would have been successful in practicing it long ago, and it would be impossible for her to become famous now.
So, when did she get the technique?
"Before I went out last time, she came to me privately and told me that she would come back within half a year and give me some benefits... She probably got the opportunity by then. But she must have just got the opportunity at that time, and it would take some time.
Only by practicing can you master it, so we agreed with me for half a year..."
"So, the time when she got the chance should have been shortly before I went out... Could it be that she got the favor of the Dragon Yu Sect's immortal master and taught her the Dragon Yu Sect's magic?"
Wu Jie perked up and thought along this line of thought, but soon he secretly shook his head.
It takes thirty years for the Yulong Sect's skills to establish a foundation, which means that its early progress must be very slow. Looking at Du Ruo's situation, it can be called rapid progress, which is obviously not the path of the Yulong Sect.
"Since it's not the Yulong Sect, then it can only be... Sanshan Taoist!"
Thinking of this, his expression became solemn.
Since he traveled to this world, he has actually not seen many immortals. Apart from Jasmine, his apprentice (pet) in the previous life, there are only people from the Yulong Sect and Sanshan Taoist priests.
As for everyone in the Yulong Sect, he only came into contact with two "young" disciples. According to Jasmine, these two people probably belong to the realm of Taoism - after a mortal has developed a breath of innate true energy, he must cultivate and strengthen the true energy at the same time.
Use the true energy to infiltrate the physical body and warm the soul. Before the true energy, the physical body and the soul are fully strengthened to the limit of the mortal body, they all belong to the realm of Taoism.
For ordinary people, those who have entered the Taoist realm are already among the gods. However, the two people from Yulong Sect obviously lack the self-consciousness of gods. They are gentle and neat in their work. Wu Jie thinks that they should be the so-called "people on the righteous path".
Compared to these two, the old Taoist priest Sanshan, who has always been mysterious and sneaky, is of course a member of the evil sect.
Some clues can be seen from the scene of the fight between the two sides. The three members of the Yulong Sect all used flying swords that emitted golden light, which looked majestic at first glance; while the Taoist priest Sanshan controlled the dark, deep and disturbing black mist.
, no matter how you look at it, he looks like a bad guy!
Is it really a good thing if Du Ruoyao has acquired Sanshan Taoist's technique?
