Combat Power (2)

Zang Wei stood behind Pang Yinlong. After scanning the crowd, he walked to Pang Yinlong’s side and said in a low voice, “Master, I saw just now that Lin Yan isn’t present.”

“Not present?”

Now it was Pang Yinlong and Pang Meng’s turn to look at each other. This is the best time to become famous, yet he’s actually not here?

Could it be that he did not plan to participate in the assessment in advance?

That’s not right. If it wasn’t for the sake of shocking the world, would he be crazy to eat so many Spirit Recovery Pills?

The two of them were puzzled. Pang Meng said in a low voice, “He must have been delayed by something.”

Pang Yinlong could only chuckle speechlessly. He waved his hand and said, “This assessment is over!”

With that, the few of them left together, leaving behind the disciples who were even more confused. They asked, “Who exactly is Lin Yan?”

——————————————-

For the next few days, Lin Yan did not go to the martial arts arena at night to practice martial arts.

Because Xiaozhi had been especially sleepy recently, and for some reason, she often had nightmares at night. She was covered in cold sweat and woke up in the middle of the night.

Lin Yan got a few prescriptions of calming soup. The effect was alright. He was worried, so he guarded Xiaozhi every night and only practiced martial arts carefully in the room.

This morning, Xiaozhi was still sound asleep.

In the room, Lin Yan calmed himself down and carefully smelted the results of the past month.

As carefully adjusted movements appeared, Lin Yan sometimes transformed into a roaring tiger in the wilderness, sometimes into an immortal deer that flew over the mountain stream, sometimes punched with his arms, and sometimes flapped his wings and flew high…

In the narrow room, the sound of fists whistling in the wind was controlled within a certain range. It was enough to show his control over the Five Animal Hands.

“Ha!”

With the last punch, Lin Yan felt as if his entire body was steaming. Countless heat currents surged from all over his body, and his body experienced an explosive steaming sensation. Then, his body greedily devoured it, turning it into nourishment to strengthen his muscles and bones.

After a full minute, the surging blood energy in his body slowly calmed down, and the redness of his skin gradually faded.

Clenching his fists, Lin Yan muttered, “I didn’t expect that after the true Five Forms fused, it could actually trigger such an astonishing effect…”

Didn’t they say that no matter how high the realm of the Five Animal Hands was, it wouldn’t affect the effect?

However, after his five forms fused into one, they complemented each other and stimulated the blood energy in his entire body again, strengthening the foundation of his muscles and bones!

Moreover, the effect was at least three to four times stronger than before!

At this level of strengthening, he would probably be able to withstand the circulation of blood energy before long even if he did not undergo a blood energy transformation, right?

If his blood energy transformed again, how strong would his muscles and bones be?

Could he be comparable to those aristocratic disciples that Eldest Senior Brother had mentioned?

After cultivating for so long, Lin Yan had a full understanding of the martial arts foundation.

The transformation of blood energy was equivalent to increasing the foundation of one’s bones and tendons by a level.

The stronger the foundation of the muscles and bones, the stronger the effect after the transformation.

Through medicinal baths, nourishment, and other methods, the foundation of the muscles and bones of the disciples of the aristocratic families was naturally stronger than that of ordinary people. The effects of the blood energy transformation naturally far exceeded that of ordinary people.

“The fusion of the Five Forms can strengthen the foundation of one’s muscles and bones for the second time. The effect is so shocking that it can be said to be a divine skill to build a solid foundation.

“However, Eldest Senior Brother said that the realm of the Five Animal Hands doesn’t affect the transformation of blood energy.

“It should be because it’s too difficult to achieve the fusion of the five forms, right?”

Other people did not have proficiency notifications, so they could not adjust their actions in detail to increase their proficiency.

After cultivating the Five Animal Hands to a certain extent, they could no longer improve. Their blood energy was naturally filled, and it could only boil and transform.

He was able to achieve the fusion of the Five Forms. Firstly, he had the

Poison Transformation

that could quickly recover his blood energy. Coupled with the protection of the 12 Spirit Recovery Pills and the proficiency notification that allowed him to constantly fine-tune it, he was able to reach this realm.

If it were anyone else, how many resources, time, and energy would they have to spend?

It was likely that many people, including Eldest Senior Brother, did not even know the realm of the Five Forms Fusion.

Lin Yan focused and opened the Golden Bodhi Scripture.

Skills: Devour (100%), Five Animal Hands (95%)

Just as he had expected last time, the proficiency of the Five Animal Hands increased by 10% in just four to five days.

This was not his first time coming into contact with the Five Animal Hands Technique. If it could increase by 10% on the basis of 85%, the difficulty would be more than ten times higher than from 0% to 10%.

Looking at the 95% figure, Lin Yan sighed slightly.

Just like when he had reached 55%, 95% was a new bottleneck!

He had already practiced the Five Animal Hands dozens of times, but his proficiency was like a snail, increasing extremely slowly.

Lin Yan had a vague feeling that this bottleneck would be extremely firm. 100% proficiency was considered perfection, and it would probably be extremely difficult to reach it in a short period of time.

“There’s only one month left. Can I really reach 100% proficiency?”

When he encountered a bottleneck, practicing diligently was not a solution.

“Brother…”

When Lin Yan heard Xiaozhi’s call, he quickly walked to her side.

“Xiaozhi, are you hungry? I’ll go get you some food now.”

For the past few days, Lin Yan did not send Xiaozhi to the Book House. He only stayed at home to let Xiaozhi rest. After taking care of her for a few days, Xiaozhi’s condition was obviously much better.

It was noon when he went out. Lin Yan went straight to the dining room.

“Lin Yan!”

As soon as he got his food, there was a burst of exclamation from the side.

“Lin Yan?”

“Lin Yan!”

“He’s Lin Yan?!”

Following that, voices calling Lin Yan’s name rose and fell. The originally noisy environment suddenly fell silent.

Lin Yan’s body tensed up slightly and his movements paused for a moment.

He turned around and saw that it was Yu Qian who had called his name.
