Don't Mess with That Dragon

With an incredibly solid foundation, coupled with qi and blood attacks that aren’t inferior to the majority of First Grade martial artists, Li Weifeng’s overall combat power now is not afraid of even martial artists at the pinnacle of First Grade.

If we talk about the foundation, not just ordinary martial artists, even official martial artists can’t compare to the current Li Weifeng.

However, even so, he still isn’t satisfied.

First Grade martial artists are merely the lowest level among the Nine Grades of Martial Arts.

Right now, this level of power is still not enough!

"The only methods I have to counter enemies are the Basic Boxing Technique and Nine Stance Techniques; it’s still too simple. If I face an enemy with similarly strong foundations or a higher realm, my advantage will be significantly reduced."

Li Weifeng contemplated secretly in his heart.

He needs a new method, one that is a more powerful trump card than Basic Boxing Technique and Nine Stance Techniques.

That can only be official combat martial techniques.

Through the videos sent by Chen Yong, Li Weifeng also gained more understanding of the low-tier cultivation in this world.

Combat martial techniques are a way to utilize more powerful qi and blood power within oneself and are the primary lethal moves for martial artists against enemies.

However, combat martial techniques are not like basic boxing techniques, which are common goods that can be acquired at a small cost.

Even Li Weifeng’s biological father, being a Third Grade martial artist, did not leave behind any record of combat martial techniques.

It is conceivable that these things are supposed to be forbidden knowledge.

Li Weifeng did not bother Chen Yong again.

Because it’s apparent that the other party is not qualified to freely disseminate these things.

"The rarity of combat martial techniques apparently needs no further thought; I can only seek other ways to enhance my strength."

With the vision accumulated in the Martial Hero World over decades, Li Weifeng might eventually be able to create his own combat martial techniques.

However, he has not even achieved official martial artist status yet.

His understanding of the path of qi and blood in this world is also merely at the introductory stage.

Wanting to create combat martial techniques without having solidified the foundation is like floating duckweed on water and may not yield effective results.

"I need something open, local, that can be used in real combat in this world."

Within his bedroom, Li Weifeng pondered for a long time.

Suddenly, he thought of a possibility.

National Martial Arts!

"Since this world is similar to the one I lived in previously, perhaps National Martial Arts exist in this world too!"

Upon realizing this, he quickly opened his computer and searched online.

As he had expected, Tai Chi, Wing Chun, Baji, Choy Li Fut, Hongquan... various martial arts also have their heritage in this world!

Even like the previous life,

these national martial arts cultivation methods could be easily found in forums and online communities!

Moreover, in this world where Spiritual Qi revives and Daoist techniques manifest, the influence of National Martial Arts is greater than in the previous life.

Li Weifeng’s eyes twinkled, having already formed a plan in his heart.

Genuine combat martial techniques are hard to access, but these National Martial Arts don’t seem too difficult to acquire.

By combining these local National Martial Arts with qi and blood, it’s not impossible to deduce his own combat martial techniques.

"But, do National Martial Arts really work?"

Li Weifeng was also somewhat hesitant in his heart.

According to online information, there indeed exist powerful figures in some National Martial Arts sects, but National Martial Arts themselves seem to only have health-strengthening functions.

Perhaps when practiced to a high level, there might be other miraculous aspects, but to the general public, it seems to only add a little to combat power.

Perhaps, for this reason, the lineage of these National Martial Arts has not been banned by government agencies.

"Forget it, whether it’s useful or not, let’s try practicing them first."

Making up his mind, Li Weifeng downloaded two National Martial Arts lineages from the internet.

Tai Chi and Baji,

as the saying goes, "The civility of Tai Chi pacifies the world, the martial strength of Baji steadies the universe."

Whether this saying is correct or not, at least the philosophies of these two National Martial Arts align most with Li Weifeng’s Martial Arts heart.

Relying on his strong Spiritual Power, Li Weifeng memorized the cultivation methods of these two martial arts almost instantly.

Then, he closed his eyes and quickly deduced them in his mind.

...

The next morning.

In a deserted forest in the suburbs.

A figure was practicing martial arts among the woods.

His feet gripped the ground like wooden stakes fixed into the earth, moving with stability.

The basic Nine Stance Techniques had been practiced to an exceptional level, seamlessly integrating into his boxing techniques.

With strong, stable heels, force traveled to the waist and shot to the fingertips, with boxing techniques that were bold and vigorous, generating thunderous sounds when hitting the air.

Just by observing the momentum, one could feel the explosive power contained within!

Before long, his figure darted, his palm struck down like a tiger’s paw, crashing onto a massive boulder as tall as two people.

With a bang, the formidable power erupted, and the boulder instantly shattered into pieces like a pile of sand and stone crumbling.

"Baji Fist, National Martial Arts... I see..."

With a pressing of his hands and slowly withdrawing his force, Li Weifeng had an epiphany in his heart.

Baji Fist emphasizes using the head, shoulders, elbows, hands, tail, hips, knees, and feet, encompassing almost all body parts as weapons for combat, being the most vigorous of national martial arts boxing techniques.

However, even with such a forceful boxing technique, it can’t escape the essence of inner cultivation of National Martial Arts.

National Martial Arts, cultivate internally.

It emphasizes keeping qi and blood within the body, ultimately achieving an indestructible body.

However, a martial artist’s main combat method still relies on the attack of externally released qi and blood energy.

With this, although cultivating National Martial Arts does promote qi and blood cultivation to some extent,

its "internal cultivation" nature makes it difficult to unleash qi and blood as explosive as genuine combat martial techniques, making it a pure external force, hence weaker than real combat martial techniques.

Moreover, cultivating National Martial Arts requires talent.

An average person practicing National Martial Arts for years might only achieve a basic form, not understanding integration, and coupled with the essence of internal cultivation, can’t unleash the full potential of blood qi in combat.

Hence, National Martial Arts almost turn into an auxiliary cultivation method.

Unless a true genius emerges, it generally doesn’t add much to one’s combat power, perhaps that’s why the country hasn’t banned the dissemination of National Martial Arts.

"For others to train in National Martial Arts, even a genius would take three to five years to achieve the Power of Vajra Inverted Cone, but I am different..."

Relying on strong Spiritual Power, Li Weifeng could sense every cell, every blood vessel in his body with remarkable accuracy.

This allowed him to practice Baji Fist to the entry level and even minor achievement overnight.

Moreover, with modifications and adjustments, he could even unleash qi and blood energy attacks during battle, turning it into a genuine combat martial technique!

"With the minor achievement and ability to externalize qi and blood in Baji Fist, now I have some means of self-defense... Also, I must spend some time researching Tai Chi Boxing."

Feeling the power of National Martial Arts, Li Weifeng had already planned for the future.

At that moment, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Li Weifeng checked it,

It’s Uncle Chen!

Uncle Chen, have you arrived in the Magic Capital...

Recalling the assimilation three days ago, Li Weifeng was suddenly enlightened.

It’s time to enter the martial artist echelon of this world and step into the real and dangerous world.

With the modified Baji Fist as his backing, Li Weifeng didn’t hesitate at all and went straight back home.
