CHAPTER 284: CHAPTER 262: BEYOND PERFECTION! QI BLOOD LIMIT!

"In the imagery, my Metal attribute certainly doesn’t match up to the Fire attribute, but compared to before, it’s improved significantly, enough to stand against them.

I hope today I can use this Realm Breakthrough to catch a glimpse of the Five Elements World..."

As his thoughts spun, Meng Chuan’s hands never stopped moving.

The fist stance changed, although the gold light wasn’t as fierce as the flames, it shimmered faintly amidst the firelight.

His figure moved like lightning, his fist strength combined with high-frequency vibrations, layer upon layer of sharp Metal Qi seemed to tear through the cold night.

Snow turned to slush underfoot, then evaporated into mist. The Five Elements Fist approached the edge of breakthrough, the interaction of the elements was beginning to take shape.

Fist stance and Qi blood blended, as if ready to break through shackles at any moment, directly aiming at the imagery world.

Time flew by rapidly, unnoticed.

Meng Chuan’s body suddenly emitted a woven brilliance of red and gold, his intense Qi blood surged like lava beneath his skin.

Whenever the Five Elements transformed, the Qi from the elements would squirm and rearrange like living creatures, drawing ancient totems in the snowy night.

Whenever thirsty, he’d grab a handful of snow to swallow, tired, he persisted, continuing until he triggered the Rainbow Light Radiance Body.

Meng Chuan was immersed in the world of fist skills, capturing the breakthrough Qi.

Until dawn broke, a crisp sound echoed in his mind:

"Five Elements Qiankun Fist: Mastery (99%) → Perfection (1%)"

Meng Chuan gathered himself and stood firm, along with the Perfection of the Five Elements Fist’s progress, exaggerated Qi blood rushed out from the acupoints, sweeping through the body like a violent wave along his meridians.

Inside, the muffled thunder resonated continuously, the previously vacant seventh of the meridians was completely filled with newly born Qi blood.

Accompanied by the pores all over his body, a burst of intertwined five-color brilliance instantly vaporized the snow into a swirling sea of clouds within a ten-yard radius.

Meng Chuan was not satisfied with this, because he felt something vaguely within.

He wanted to continue throwing fists, to catch a glimpse of the Five Elements imagery world!

He punched and stretched his legs, each move seemed to be imbued with the spirit of a Divine Weapon, causing the air to emit buzzing sound explosions.

Once, twice, thrice... Meng Chuan kept contemplating the martial philosophy of the Five Elements Fist.

With the benefit of the breakthrough into Perfection, his understanding of the fist skill deepened significantly. If outsiders saw, they’d notice a unique charm to his movements, like an Immortal gathering mist amid the heavy snowfall.

In the next moment, the white light was no longer the only thing before Meng Chuan’s eyes.

His heart spirit seemed to return to the imagery world filled with "Five Elements particles".

He stepped forward, this time his vigorous figure was not obstructed.

Upon entering the first step into the Five Elements World, Meng Chuan’s figure instantly shattered!

This time it wasn’t the Five Elements World collapsing, but his own heart spirit.

Once more!

Meng Chuan continued throwing fists, the gold light in his hands growing stronger, his left hand wielded Lung Metal, the right hand Kidney Water, accompanied by a morning rooster’s crow, he once again stood before the Five Elements World.

This time, the scene before his eyes had somewhat transformed, Yellow and Blue interweaving against the sky-high Red flames!

Meng Chuan’s heart spirit steadied, twisting upward.

For a moment his foot landed firmly, and darkness blanketed his vision.

Not knowing how much time passed, upon opening his eyes again, Meng Chuan’s eyes froze.

This is a chaotic world dominated by Red, where other colors are interwoven.

Looking down at the ground, multiple colors layer upon layer, as if the earth was overturned into a palette, resembling the seven-colored Danxia landforms seen in past lives.

At this step, Meng Chuan already knew the key:

This is the spiritual manifestation of his Five Elements Fist, not brought about by the cultivation technique, it’s not Fist Shocking the Eight Desolates - Qin Xiang, and not even Five Elements Supreme - Li Zhenyue!

At this time, Meng Chuan is already standing on the same starting line as his predecessors.

This is the future, the unique fist spiritual world of Infinite Fist - Meng Chuan!

This vast and boundless world is precisely his definition of infinity.

He has resolved to journey from the Infinite Martial Arts Dojo to the future’s Infinite Fist.

This title, in the unseen realm... aligns with heaven’s will, Meng Chuan finds it appropriate.

In the next instant, his entire body exploded with fist stance, roaming freely in this boundless realm, chasing the sky and sea, rushing through the wind and waves.

He ran, he explored, until footsteps kissed every inch of land, causing a change in world!

Suddenly, the whole world twisted into complete chaos, heaven and earth, all directions, transformed into a five-colored flood pouring into Meng Chuan’s chest...

From his lungs emanated a vibrant golden sound, from his heart窍 erupted blazing firelight, from his kidneys surged profound netherwater, liverwood sprouted and grew green light, spleensoil formed into majestic mountains.

The five Qi converged inside Meng Chuan into a whirlpool, finally collapsing into a chaotic seed, silently awaiting to take root and sprout...

Upon opening his eyes again, Meng Chuan’s heart spirit was immensely shaken.

Such divinity, is this fist skill or divine power...

At this moment, regarding the memory of that realm, Meng Chuan had it clearly imprinted in his mind.

He searched his entire body, ultimately unable to find that seed.

He sensed something vaguely and concentrated it within the sea of consciousness.

Countless familiarity progression prompts had already filled the screen, Meng Chuan directly saw the last one, excitement permeated through him.

"Five Elements Qiankun Fist: Perfection (70%) Awaiting Limit Breaking"

"Limit Breaking Core Trait: Five Qi Chaoyuan (Tier 1 Core)"

Meng Chuan comprehended that he didn’t need to search for the Five Elements World’s seed.

Because it’s already here, quietly waiting for him to push for the final sprint towards Limit Breaking.

"Five Qi Chaoyuan!"

Reviewing his body, with the surge of proficiency bringing Qi blood soaring like a dam break, pouring out from within.

The meridians had already filled to the limit, yet the newly born Qi blood kept pouring in, unable to be accommodated, coalescing into strands of red mist surrounding him.

"This can’t be wasted..."

He could clearly feel that this pure Qi blood power was now feeding the earth, even the deadwood by the hot spring pool had faintly revived in this deep winter.

Meng Chuan felt urgency, heaven seemed to be freeloading off him, he hurriedly summoned his "beloved pet", Dragon Demon.

Dragon Demon crawled out, glancing around then tilting its head at him, a look of puzzlement.

"..."

Meng Chuan, overexcited, forgot that this guy couldn’t absorb Qi and blood.

His thoughts converged on the Primordial Spirit Thunder Planting Skill that created the "Thunder Seed," which was the main culprit for swallowing his master’s Qi and blood.

"After cultivation, besides greatly limiting, can I also voluntarily use the body’s excess Qi and blood to nourish it a bit..."

The meridians are limited and unable to sustain excess Qi and blood, so having a "digesting" little pet isn’t a bad idea.

"Better confirm it at the Qi and blood testing room, to avoid making a mistake."

If the Qi and blood reach the limit, Meng Chuan will need to start the first step of sprinting as a Martial Artist and learn the True Skill!

Stepping out of the courtyard, he suddenly felt his stomach churning, hungry as if he could eat a whole cow.

"Has Xu woken up yet? Let’s eat!"

Xu Qingfeng rubbed his sleepy eyes, and upon seeing Meng Chuan, all the hairs on his body stood on end.

"You... you became a Martial Artist?"

Standing beside Meng Chuan, he felt like he was facing a fist skill teacher.

Meng Chuan explained:

"Not yet, the Qi and blood should be just at the limit, haven’t learned the True Skill yet..."

"...Then you’re invincible, won’t you be even more monstrous after becoming a Martial Artist?"

After Xu Qingfeng spoke, his expression froze, and a mournful howl echoed to the sky.

Meng Chuan was puzzled, wondering if this guy had taken the wrong medicine.

Xu Qingfeng felt bitter inside, as last night the news of the Martial Extreme True Inheritance battle had just come out.

He made a bold move and went all-in.

He bet all the more than a hundred credits he had painstakingly accumulated on the Tiger King...

Those who don’t believe in their brothers will be bitten back by them in the end...

...

The energy-filled meals at United University kept Meng Chuan busy in the kitchen, and his hunger slowly disappeared.

After eating, seeing Xu Qingfeng looking like he’s about to die, he went alone to the Qi and blood testing room.

Minutes later, after finishing a set of Thunder Hand Techniques, Meng Chuan waited quietly for the machine to produce results.

Looking at the machine making a clattering sound, he felt an ominous premonition...

Once the sound came, he finally exhaled with relief.

"Qi and Blood Value 712.2, you have reached the Martial Artist level, please use special equipment for Martial Artists for future tests."

Meng Chuan speculated that since the current recorded Qi blood limit was 598 points, and he far exceeded this standard, he might have reached the Martial Artist threshold.

He knew that now is the Qi Blood Martial Arts Era, and Qi blood cultivation naturally runs through the entire Martial Arts journey.

Even the Seven-Limit Great Saints still need to cultivate Qi blood; however, the cultivation method of Martial Artists is vastly different from that of martial practitioners.

"Alright, I’ll let master help me check. If there’s no problem, I’ll start preparing for True Skill cultivation."

Time is tight, and with a chance to compete for the Martial Extreme True Inheritance, he naturally won’t miss it.

...

Meanwhile, inside Chen Cang’s Southern Netherworld Demon Nest.

The approaching New Year’s atmosphere has also extended here.

"Old Wang, our team’s schedule is out; we have time off on thirty and the first day, hahaha."

"Not easy, finally can go home to spend time with family."

On the ground, people were bustling, and footsteps delivering resources to the demon nest were frequent.

Deep underground, the lurking ancient Kirin wood is still... lurking within the demon nest.

If it wishes, it could instantly drain everyone on the surface, returning this level-three demon nest to silence.

Then, break through this laughable protection device and emerge completely in the human world, obliterating the entire city...

But it doesn’t act; it is a smart Celestial Demon.

If classified according to human standards, it belongs to the level-four Demon Nest Master.

It hasn’t reached the stage of being invincible, as human top Great Saints can still handle it.

Thus, after leaving its own demon nest devoid of sustenance, Kirin chose to continue dormant, waiting for the right moment...

As it was plotting, a human voice resonated deep within its True Spirit.

"Good day, revered god, may I ask when we will act? Our Divine Summoning Hall is ready to cooperate."

"We’ll discuss this later."

"...As you command."

No one knows which part of the underground world where Li Xiao is fuming with anger.

After breaking the link with Kirin, he slammed the magnificent altar into pieces.

He and Outer Heaven spent a fortune inviting them to Chen Cang, but after two to three months, there were no movements.

What was promised to him hasn’t been given, staying hidden underground without action, Li Xiao felt he had been taken advantage of.

"Let’s wait a bit more... enjoy New Year first."

Even someone as ruthless as him has a New Year sentiment.

...

The next day, Meng Chuan took leave from school, preparing to descend the mountain.

Upon hearing of his Qi and blood reaching the limit and starting True Skill cultivation, his classmates from the Grandmaster Class felt quite bitter.

Especially Chu Yanhu, who had already begun but was still sensing Qi.

"This kid might actually surpass me..."

In actual combat, he no longer hoped to defeat Meng Chuan.

The other’s Qi and blood seemed beyond human, able to hammer him to near-death just with sheer strength without using an energized fist stance.

However, in terms of realm, Chu Yanhu still held the lead.

At this moment, a sense of urgency surged within him.

"Sense Qi, sense Qi... where exactly is True Qi..."
