Chapter 431: Real Spear Technique

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After becoming the founder of the Five Animal Frolics in this world, Yan Liqiang felt great. He then chose another fist technique that had an outstanding reputation in his previous life and continued practicing. This fist technique was the Eight Extremities Fist technique.

Reality proved that there was no Eight Extremities Fist technique in this world. With Yan Liqiang’s current foundation in his cultivation, a Heavenly Bestowment came once again on the third day of cultivating the Eight Extremities Fist.

The Eight Extremities Fist technique was an incisive fist technique for close combat. The formidable power of this fist technique was many times stronger than the Tiger Roaring Consecutive Fist technique that Yan Liqiang previously cultivated. One of the reasons for cultivating the new martial technique was to raise his combat prowess, but a more important reason would be due to the reward and blessing of the Heavenly Bestowments brought on by the new martial art technique and heavenly resonance. Obtaining repeated Heavenly Bestowments was the fastest way to increase one’s strength.

Cultivating dart blowing technique had not only tremendously raised Yan Liqiang strength within a short time, but also made him understand something by the means of inference. Through the cultivation of dart blowing technique and receiving Heavenly Bestowments, Yan Liqiang was able to quickly transform himself from an amateur to an expert in using concealed weapons.

It was the same for cultivating the Five Animal Frolics technique. After obtaining the complete set of Heavenly Bestowments for the Five Animal Frolics, Yan Liqiang vaguely discovered that there was a strong connection between the Five Animal Frolics technique and the three stages that Martial Warriors needed to pass when establishing their foundations. Practicing the Five Animal Frolics seemed to be able to speed up the process of completing the Horse Stance, Stretching Tendon and Extending Bone, as well as Establishing Dantian stages.

The discovery shocked Yan Liqiang. For ordinary folks, the challenge in progressing into a Martial Warrior lay in the difficulty of passing these three stages. There were countless cultivators that were shut outside the door due to these three stages. The Horse Stance and Establishing Dantian stages were particularly difficult for many people. If the Five Animal Frolics technique would really help in passing these three stages, then its value in assisting the advancement as a Martial Warrior would be immeasurable.

Aside from the Five Animal Frolics technique, the Heavenly Bestowment of the Eight Extremities Fist technique also brought Yan Liqiang’s comprehension in fist techniques to a whole new level. He was now able to grasp the concept that he could never grasp before. With this new understanding, he was able to make a difference with even the most basic Tiger Roaring Consecutive Fist technique. The fist technique and spear shaking were both interconnected, and due to his deeper understanding of the fist technique, Yan Liqiang’s cultivation with the spear also improved.

The cultivation techniques complemented each other. As Yan Liqiang grew stronger from the effects he received from the continuous Heavenly Bestowments, his cultivation in spear shaking also became easier for him to grasp.

Over the past few days, Yan Liqiang clearly felt the difference when he shook the spear. He felt as though he had entered a strange realm. In that realm, the spear in his hand disappeared. Instead of holding the Dragon Spine Steel spear, he was holding a thought in his hands, and that thought was alive...

Yan Liqiang had a hunch that this was the ‘real spear technique’ that Li Hongtu had mentioned to him before, and he was about to master it!

Yan Liqiang did not stop after perfecting the Eight Extremities Fist technique. Instead, he continued by plunging into the middle of the pond and started shaking the spear at the bottom of the pond. The water of the pond barely stilled before the vibrations of Yan Liqiang’s spear stirred it up again. Circular ripples spawned in the middle of the pond and spread to all sides as though someone had dropped a huge rock into the pond. At the heart of the ripples, over thousands of water droplets rose and fell every second. It was a beautiful sight to behold...

After shaking for half an hour, the water droplets that were bouncing on the water surface stopped. Yan Liqiang resurfaced from the water to take a deep breath of fresh air before diving back down again. A few seconds later, water droplets were seen bouncing on the water surface again. Another half an hour later, the water droplets stopped and Yan Liqiang resurfaced again to take a deep breath before diving back into the water again...

After repeating this for about ten times, it was already late in the afternoon. Yan Liqiang was exhausted. He dragged himself out from the water and lay down on a giant rock by the pond. Basking in the sun, he looked at the white clouds in the sky while panting heavily.

After Yan Liqiang’s body had recovered slightly from exhaustion, he went to a stream nearby and took out the Solomon’s Seals and arrowroots that he had placed in the stream after finding them on a mountain a few days ago. After rinsing and chopping them with a knife, he started wolfing them down.

The melted snow water from the distant mountains formed the cold and clean stream. This stream had become Yan Liqiang’s natural refrigerator. Whenever he found anything such as wild fruits or Solomon’s Seals, he would put them in between the rock crevices in the stream. With this method, he could preserve those fruits for a few days without having them flushed away by the stream water.

Eating raw Solomon’s Seals caused Yan Liqiang’s mouth to feel slightly numb and at the same time, it also caused slight irritation to his throat. However, the numbness and irritation were nothing to Yan Liqiang. After he ate the Solomon’s Seal, he ate a few arrowroots and the inside of his mouth became sweet again. Once his body regained a bit of strength, Yan Liqiang wasted no time in cultivating the Muscle Tendon Changing and Marrow Cleansing to strengthen his body...

After two rounds of Muscle Tendon Changing and Marrow Cleansing, Yan Liqiang felt a gust of strong wind above his head. After hearing a loud bird cry, a golden, majestic-looking mythical bird with a wingspan of three meters descended from the sky. It circled around Yan Liqiang twice before dropping a strong bharal beside him, then soared into the sky again with another powerful gust of wind.

This bird was no ordinary bird; it was a Fiery-Eyed Golden Falcon. Yan Liqiang summoned the bird through the ‘toy capsule machine’ as his little companion and invisible bodyguard. After witnessing the Sacred Flame Priest’s skill in using birds on two occasions, Yan Liqiang was inspired and created one for himself too. As long as the Fiery-Eyed Golden Falcon was in the sky, it was as though he had placed a satellite and a drone up there. Nothing within a radius of several hundred li would be able to escape the Fiery-Eyed Golden Falcon’s eyes. If anyone were to approach this remote valley, the Fiery-Eyed Golden Falcon would alert Yan Liqiang.

For the next few days, Yan Liqiang fully immersed himself in his spear shaking training. Aside from sleeping and eating, he would either be shaking his spear underwater or resting at the edge of the pond to recover his stamina and strengthening his body through the Muscle Tendon Changing and Marrow Cleansing.

As Yan Liqiang cultivated, the ripples he generated in the pond grew bigger in size, and more water droplets were bouncing higher at the heart of the ripples.

Finally on an afternoon ten days later, Yan Liqiang once again went to the bottom of the pond for half an hour. The water droplets bouncing on the pond’s surface suddenly stopped, and the water ripples on the water surface also gradually died down. However, Yan Liqiang didn’t resurface to take a breath this time. Around ten minutes later, two whirlpools suddenly formed in the placid pond. One of the whirlpools was turning clockwise while the other was turning counterclockwise. Both whirlpools grew bigger and deeper as they slowly moved toward the center of the pond. Amidst the waves, the two whirlpools formed an image that resembled a pair of Yin Yang fish...

Boom... A column of water shot several tens of meters into the air. The image of the Yin Yang fish created by the two whirlpools were crushed by Yan Liqiang, who jumped up from the bottom of the pond with his Dragon Spine Steel spear like a violent dragon, and landed on a huge boulder by the pond.

Countless water droplets rolled down from Yan Liqiang’s body and hair. Yan Liqiang held the Dragon Spine Steel spear in his hand with his eyes closed and remained still as though he was meditating.

Yan Liqiang might be holding a spear in his hands at this very moment but to him, the spear was neither a spear nor a thought in his mind. Everything that existed may not have existed...

A light breeze blew against the long spear. At that moment, the subtle changes to the airflow and even the water evaporation that was too small to be observed by the naked eye were all in Yan Liqiang’s heart...

Yan Liqiang submerged the spearhead into the water. Countless ripples formed in the water. The string of bubbles gathered where the stream converged with the pond, and with the slight changes in the water temperature, everything became clear to him...

“That’s it. This is what the real spear technique is capable of...” Yan Liqiang opened his eyes that shined with unfathomable depth.

Right at that moment, Yan Liqiang sensed something, and he lifted his head to look at the sky. A small and hardly visible black dot was flying. Its flight path revealed boundless information to Yan Liqiang...

Someone was coming. Not just one, but about thirty people were thirty li away from the southeastern part of this valley. Wait... There were two groups of people. A few were running and a group was chasing them...
