Chapter 349: Chapter 139: Ranked Genius, Peak of Transformation, Dragon Gate Martial Trial
His gaze was calm and sharp, as if nothing in his surroundings mattered but the fusion of fist and force.
His fists whistled through the air, their passage marked by a dull sound of ripping air.
The resulting might was ferocious. A dense Transformation Strength, propelled by his Inner Strength, surged outward. It roiled and echoed throughout the stone room, humming faintly as it struck the gray stone walls.
The tyrannical power displayed during his training far surpassed that of an ordinary Huajin Martial Artist.
If any other disciples had been present to witness this, they would have been utterly shocked.
This power had already faintly surpassed the bounds of the Transformation Realm. Even an ordinary Martial Artist at the Peak of Transformation would find it impossible to block a full-force punch from Yang Jing. They would most likely be severely injured on the spot, their bones shattered.
Yang Jing practiced the Mountain-Shattering Fist over and over again.
His movements grew more fluid and polished, and the circulation of his Inner Strength became smoother.
Gradually, he could clearly feel the Inner Strength within him swelling, as if about to reach a critical point.
His gaze grew more focused and resolute. He gritted his teeth and continued to execute the Punching Techniques one by one, pouring all his might into every strike, striving to achieve complete mastery over his Inner Strength.
Then, in a single instant, Yang Jing felt a violent tremor run through his body as a tyrannical current of power erupted from within.
The Inner Strength that had been rushing through him instantly became perfectly smooth and clear, free of any obstruction. It flowed unimpeded through his meridians to every corner of his body. At the same time, his aura surged, growing heavier and more stable.
An irrepressible joy appeared on his face. He understood with sudden clarity. ’In this moment, my Mountain-Shattering Fist has reached the Peak of Transformation!’
Reaching the Peak of Transformation meant he was now qualified to apply for the Dragon Gate Martial Trial.
As long as he could pass the trial, he could shed his status as an outer sect disciple and officially enter the Inner Sect. Not only would his standing rise dramatically, but he would also gain access to more of the sect’s resources and support.
Yang Jing slowly retracted his fists and stood still, calming the roiling qi and blood within him. His eyes were filled with joy.
He had now trained his Mountain-Shattering Fist to the highest level he could. Without a corresponding advanced Cultivation Technique, he had reached a dead end. To advance further, his only path was to enter the Inner Sect and find a higher-level martial arts manual that suited him.
As he thought of it, a panel materialized before his eyes.
[Mountain Shattering Fist Perfection (2000/2000)]
[Thunderous Leg Perfection (1231/2000)]
[Indestructible True Skill Perfection (983/2000)]
Two months of relentless training and nearly thirty thousand taels of silver had finally brought his Mountain-Shattering Fist to the Realm of Perfection.
Yang Jing did a quick calculation. In the mere four months since he had joined the sect, he had already spent a total of fifty thousand taels of silver.
When he first arrived from Yuhe County, he had carried one hundred and forty thousand taels in silver notes. Now, only ninety thousand taels remained.
The results, however, were extremely significant.
Without the training resources of the Xuanzhen Sect, it would have taken him at least a year to cultivate his Mountain-Shattering Fist to the Perfection Realm. Now, he had shortened that time to just over three months.
And while he was bringing the Mountain-Shattering Fist to the Perfection Realm, his Thunderous Leg and Indestructible True Skill had also progressed immensely. If he had stayed in Yuhe County, these two martial arts might not even have broken through to the Transformation Realm by now.
Yang Jing took a deep breath, suppressing the rush of thoughts in his mind. He silently checked the time. The two hours he had rented the Training Room for were not yet up. An opportunity like this, rented for two hundred contribution points, was extremely rare and couldn’t be wasted.
After a brief rest to let his qi and blood settle, Yang Jing once again took his stance. He began practicing the Indestructible True Skill, slowly performing the Body Tempering techniques and feeling the perfect fusion of his physical body and Inner Strength.
About half an hour later, the two-hour time limit was up.
Yang Jing immediately stopped his practice and slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air. The tyrannical aura around him instantly receded, and he returned to his usual calm and reserved demeanor.
He straightened his green robes, then turned, pushed open the stone door, and strode out of the Training Room.
After leaving the Training Room, Yang Jing didn’t delay for a moment, heading straight for the summit of Lingxi Peak.
He had already made up his mind. Today, he would go to the Internal Affairs Hall on Lingxi Peak and formally apply for the Dragon Gate Martial Trial, striving to become an Inner Sect Disciple as soon as possible.
Within the Xuanzhen Sect, most disciples who reached the Peak of Transformation would spend some time consolidating their Cultivation and accumulating combat experience. Only after making thorough preparations would they apply for the Dragon Gate Martial Trial.
After all, the Dragon Gate Martial Trial was exceedingly difficult. Even with ample preparation, there was a high probability of failure. Some disciples even got injured during the trial, which could affect their future training.
Zhao Hongxiang, who had previously lived in the same courtyard, was one such example. After breaking through to the Peak of Transformation, he had prepared diligently for a long time before applying for the Dragon Gate Martial Trial, yet he still failed, getting stuck at the final stage.
But Yang Jing was different. He didn’t need any extra time for consolidation. His foundation was already incredibly solid.
When his Mountain-Shattering Fist reached the Peak of Transformation, his Inner Strength had already become smooth and stable. More importantly, all three of his martial arts had reached the Transformation Realm. His physical body was exceptionally tough, and his strength far surpassed that of other Martial Artists in the same realm.
He was completely confident in himself. With his current power, if he couldn’t pass the Dragon Gate Martial Trial in one go, then probably very few outer sect disciples in all Seven Veins of the Xuanzhen Sect could.
