Ji Quanzhen posed a number of tough questions and finally mumbled the method of Immortal Skin and Jade Bone Divine Technique to Lu Ren.

This is an extremely high-level superior divine skill of the Taoist Sect, though a body-guarding technique for Qi Refiners, its body strengthening methods are indeed worth emulating.

Returning to the Martial Arts Dojo, Lu Ren earnestly flipped through the True Martial Emperor Body and Immortal Skin and Jade Bone True Skills.

Both have similarities with each other.

Like the Ten Lands Golden Body Bodhisattva Path, these two true skills also begin at the Bright Awakening Realm, initially utilizing spiritual will to nourish the flesh and manipulate the magnetic field for bodily enhancement.

The path of Borrowing False to True Cultivation starts from Bright Awakening, step by step awakening, finally determining the path.

Cultivation is endless.

It's not just empty talk.

The True Martial Emperor Body can enhance the Yang Attribute, having significant restraint against Yin-attributed demonic creatures; strictly speaking, the path it takes is quite similar to the Blood Qi Martial Path, strengthening one's own blood qi.

Blood qi like a True Dragon, all evils retreat at its presence.

Immortal Skin and Jade Bone can further strengthen muscles and forge an iron-like skeleton, enhancing his defensive abilities to a further degree.

After spending nearly a week, Lu Ren finally reached the entry level of these two true skills.

"Ding, you have gained great insight into Immortal Skin and Jade Bone, you have learned Immortal Skin and Jade Bone, current stage, Slightly Accomplished, Additional Attributes, Purification, Tough Bone, Strengthening Body."

"Ding, you have gained great insight into True Martial Emperor Body, you have learned True Martial Emperor Body, current stage, Slightly Accomplished, Additional Attributes, Blood Qi like a Furnace, True Martial Subduing Demon."

With a solid foundation, these two true skills automatically reached Slightly Accomplished once mastered.

The physique that hadn't progressed for a long time started advancing again, the blood becoming viscous, circulating around him as if a vast ocean.

The changes in his body made Lu Ren have to unlock the Ten Earth Knot, recovering his True Body in the large internal martial arts training field, a scene that startled Li Qingling who was diligently practicing punches nearby, especially seeing Lu Ren's shoulders slowly sprouting a pair of nearly fifteen-meter-long fleshy wings, followed by feathers transforming into extremely sharp light golden sharp feathers.

Her eyes nearly popped out.

"Teach-teach-teacher?!"

Lu Ren glanced at her, speaking in a low voice, "Keep practicing, I'm just relaxing my muscles and bones."

Thanks to the training hall being nearly 20 meters high, Lu Ren stood up straight, slowly moving his body.

This was his original height and physique.

Having not moved his body for a long time, the movements caused cracking sounds all over, finally calming Li Qingling down.

Looking at the bronze Buddha statue in front, even behind, with spiritual will unintentionally rising from Lu Ren, a round spiritual light emerged, emitting subtle flames.

"Teacher, is your current state any different from the Realm of Wishing Size and Freedom of the Dragon Elephant Rock Stream Fist Technique?"

"What difference? The difference is huge."

Lu Ren responded casually.

Kidding me, the Realm of Wishing Size and Freedom of Dragon Elephant Rock Stream Fist Technique temporarily inflates the body through bone stretching nurtured by secret medicine, resulting in extremely resilient bones with some elasticity.

But his current Fifth Difficult-to-Conquer Land Bodhisattva Dharma Aspect is his original true body.

If not for retracting the Yang into the belly, pulling out his thing would scare people to death.

Seeing Lu Ren didn't want to say more, as he leisurely drew punch frames, gently flapping his wings, actions gentle, even without air currents.

He looked like he was practicing Tai Chi.

Once the novelty passed, Li Qingling honestly started practicing punches, midway she was startled, shouting.

"Teacher, won't I also become like you later?!"

Lu Ren speechless: "Even if you want to change, you have no qualification, if you reach the Great Perfection Realm of Fist Technique in your life, it's already your father praying well for you."

Hearing Lu Ren's denial, Li Qingling finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Having mastered Immortal Skin and Jade Bone and True Martial Emperor Body advanced his body strengthening further; both Tier One, Sixth Tier physique and Spiritual Proficiency slowly increased until halting at ninety-nine percent.

Looks like another limit breaking is necessary.

Late into the night, further familiar with combat techniques involving wings, Lu Ren then activated the Ten Earth Knot, restoring human form again.

As Lu Ren pondered extending the Red Dragon Inner Core meridians, attempting to trigger the Red Dragon Inner Core with Mingyang Sect's Bright Sun True Technique, the national third Martial Arts Conference started as scheduled.

Every victory by Li Qingling was followed by her excitedly coming to Lu Ren's side to boast, and Lu Ren would kindly offer her favorite jumping rice noodles and instruct her where she went wrong in battle, ensuring no repeats.

Li Qingling, teary-eyed: "Weren't you not present?"

Lu Ren calmly said, "Live streaming platforms allow choice of match viewing, I specifically spent 15 bucks for membership just to watch you, if you don't advance to the final match, you'd better compensate that fifteen bucks."

Li Qingling felt a chill.

By April, after the preliminary selection of the National Martial Arts Conference, Li Qingling stood out.

The final battle surprised Lu Ren; her understanding of Phoenix Extreme Fist was deeper than Phoenix Falcon Fist.

The last punch actually displayed the domineering essence of Phoenix Extreme Fist.

Lu Ren rarely allowed Li Qingling to cook a table of dishes and opened two jars of wine.

After eating and drinking, Li Qingling was already under the table.

Lu Ren noticed this, hesitating for a moment, and eventually reached out to lift her onto the bed.

As spirit soared and gathered, channeling the Red Dragon Inner Core with Bright Sun True Technique, driving it and sharing an extremely subtle wisp of energy through his fingertips.

To Lu Ren, it was merely excess energy condensed after intense exercise and absorbed by the Red Dragon Inner Core.

But to Li Qingling, it was a huge fortune.

"Teacher, this counts as my repayment to you."

Lu Ren watched as a faint red glow lit at his fingertip and merged into Li Qingling's brow, slowly integrating into her body, permeating throughout.

He concentrated wholly on watching the changes within Li Qingling's body, calming only after confirming all developments were positive.

Damn.

If this hand ended catastrophically, his show would've been a huge blunder.

On the third day, Lu Ren and Li Qingling took a special plane to the Imperial Capital.

This would be the arena for the final showdown.

"Teacher, I feel I'm a genius!"

Li Qingling was brimming with spirit, continuously swinging her fists as she walked.

Lu Ren glanced at her: "What makes you think so?"

"I feel since the battle with Zhang Dong, my understanding of martial arts, the enhancement of physique and spirit has all grown immensely. I've checked, this is a rapid growth phase after practicing boxing that seeps into the bones."

Lu Ren: "Oh."

Li Qingling's excitement halted, muttering lowly though about something unknown.

Lu Ren paid no mind.

This time, he was merely participating as a judge; later, he might even encounter several Bright Awakening Martial Taoist Family members seated at the Imperial Capital, should conditions permit, Lu Ren would even enjoy crossing fists with them.

"Fellow Taoist Lu, I've long heard of your name, today's meeting is truly worthwhile."

The long-awaiting Zhao Jiyou, Taoist of Taoist Xuan Sect, approached with a loud laugh to greet.

Lu Ren seeing this dared not neglect, hurriedly returned the courtesy.

"Taoist Zhao, I've long heard of your name!"

Zhao Jiyou, sitting in the Imperial Capital as a Qi Cultivation and Enlightenment Cultivator, even within the Spirit Realm, he oversees a region, a person who could stabilize the nation's fortune.

He could be a State Preceptor.

This elder, though frail in frame, possessed extremely dazzling eyes, surveying Lu Ren in awe: "Hard to imagine you've approached the threshold of the second limit breaking within the Bright Awakening so young."

Lu Ren smiled: "Just lucky, not comparable to Taoist Zhao."

This one's style gave him a completely different impression; compared to Ji Quanzhen and Li Changming, the Zhao Jiyou before him truly possessed the aura of an Immortal Skin and Jade Bone.

This wasn't merely a temperament but an intention.

If placed in the Kunlun Exotic Realm, as Chen Xuzi said, this one is indeed a transformative individual, capable of moving mountains and cutting ridges.

Even in the real world, he could also perform some divine techniques and magic as a Divine Being.
