 At the same moment, the headquarters of the Martial Arts Association.

 The spacious and bright hall was crowded with people.

 The sound of rustling discussions could be heard from time to time.

“I didn’t expect that the president would enter the realm of heaven and humans so soon. He is worthy of being the president.”

“That’s natural, President, but he is the well-deserved number one person in our Jiangnan District Martial Arts Association.”

“Not only that, even if we count several other martial arts associations, our president is probably the best.”

“Absolutely, needless to say, our Jiangnan District Martial Arts Association must be the strongest among the several martial arts associations in the Yan Kingdom!!”

 The excitement of the crowd was beyond words.

Most of them actually don’t know that the President will choose to make a breakthrough today.

I was just attracted by the strange phenomena of heaven and earth above the base, and after some inquiring, I found out the reason.

So, they called their friends one by one, and soon, almost all the warriors in the headquarters rushed back from various places, waiting for the moment when the president came out of seclusion.

But just at this moment, a weak voice sounded.

“But I heard that the president of the Jiangbei District Martial Arts Association entered the realm of heaven and humanity last year, right?”

 The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became silent.

 Countless glances were directed at the person who just spoke.

 The latter was suddenly sweating profusely and said at a loss: "I, I didn't mean that, I just, just..."

He wanted to slap himself a few times, but he was talking too much at this time.

 “Huh, so what?”

 Someone sneered,

"That President Fan chose to break through when he was in the second level of the True Yuan Realm. Therefore, he only condensed the second-grade martial arts elixir. Last year, our President was also in the second level of the True Yuan Realm. If he chose to break through, It can also condense the second-grade martial arts true elixir, and there is even a small chance that it can condense the first-grade martial arts true elixir. However, our president, for the sake of stability, postponed it for a year and chose to break through after reaching the third level of the True Yuan Realm. That’s all.”

"is that so?"

Everyone was refreshed when they heard this.

 “That’s natural.”

The person who sneered continued: "If you don't believe it, you can search for relevant information on the Internet.

When President Fan broke through, the scale of the heaven and earth phenomena he caused was less than three miles, and the duration was only three minutes. The scale of the heaven and earth phenomena caused by President Fan was more than three times his, and the duration was only three minutes. It was close to a quarter of an hour. Isn't this enough to explain the gap between the two sides? "

As the words fell, the pride on everyone’s faces became even stronger.

Even if they are both warriors in the Heaven and Human Realm, there are still differences.

Even though the president has just made a breakthrough, his combat effectiveness is not necessarily weaker than that of President Fan.

If given enough time, the strength gap between the two will only get wider and wider.

“I don’t know what will happen to me when I get out of seclusion.”

"It should be about now, right? The vision in the sky is slowly disappearing."

"Just wait patiently. We have waited for it for so many years, and we will not miss this moment."

Soon, calm returned to the hall.

 In a certain secret room, a burly middle-aged man slowly opened his eyes.

 “Succeeded?”

 A warm voice sounded, giving people a feeling of spring breeze.

 The one who spoke was an old man, dressed like an ancient man.

Wearing gray cloth shoes and a simple robe, her long hair is gathered together and twisted into a bun on the top of her head.

His temples are grey, and his eyes are full of energy.

 “It is finished.”

The burly man's face showed a touch of joy, and then he prostrated on the ground and said respectfully: "Thank you, Mr. Wang, for protecting me."

 “Get up quickly.”

 Lao Wang smiled slightly and said: "This breakthrough is all your own fault. I didn't help you at all."

 “You’re welcome, Mr. Wang.”

The burly man stood up from the futon and said, "If it weren't for Mr. Wang's guidance, Shi Tao's breakthrough would not have been so smooth."

 From the Pulse Refining Realm to the True Yuan Realm, there are risks.

Zhen Qi is sharp and can easily pierce the meridians and even cut the internal organs. If one of them is not good, the life will be in danger.

 The breakthrough from the True Yuan Realm to the Heavenly Realm is even more dangerous.

 But his breakthrough this time was as natural as a matter of course.

 Lao Wang stroked his long beard and felt very satisfied.

Over the past thousand years, he has accepted many disciples.

 Shi Tao is just one of them.

In terms of understanding, Shi Tao is not the highest among them, but in terms of mind, he is indeed the best.

 Don't underestimate character. Understanding determines the lower limit of a warrior, but character can determine the upper limit of a warrior.

Many of the disciples he taught were defeated by their character.

“Now, since you have broken through to the realm of heaven and humans, it is time for me to teach you some of the supreme martial arts I know.”

Mr. Wang said: "Actually, with your qualifications, I can teach it to you when you are still in the True Essence Realm. However, I am worried that doing so will undermine the success of others, which is not good."

 “Don’t worry too much, Mr. Wang, Shi Tao understands your good intentions.”

Shi Tao said respectfully, his eyes burning.

 Supreme martial arts.

As the name suggests, mastering any one discipline is enough to become the supreme martial arts master in the world.

As for peerless martial arts, mastering any one discipline only means becoming a peerless master in the world.

 As for the martial arts of gods and demons…

 He did not dare to think too much.

 “As long as you understand.”

Mr. Wang nodded with a smile, paused for a moment, and said: "I have a total of five supreme martial arts in my hand, namely the Nine Transformations of Flying Stars, Xiaoyaoyou, Three-Point Return to Vitality, Xuanwu True Skill, and Sacred Heart Jue."

 When he heard the three words "Sacred Heart Jue", even Shi Tao's heart beat a little.

How many powerful men of the same era as this old man have fallen in the past thousand years, and many of them are still stronger than Mr. Wang, but they are still no match for the passage of time.

 But Wang Lao can still survive today, thanks to this Sacred Heart Art.

"pity."

Mr. Wang saw what he was thinking and sighed softly: "To practice the Sacred Heart Art, you must take phoenix blood. Otherwise, not only will you not be able to practice to the highest level, but you will also suffer from true energy backlash from time to time. So, what are you waiting for? When I get the phoenix blood, it won’t be too late for me to teach you.”

"yes."

 Shi Tao made a deep bow.

 The relationship between Wang Lao and him is not father and son, but better than father and son.

 This also made him have the same feelings for Ling Yu.

"Um."

Mr. Wang smiled, and then said: "Except for the Sacred Heart Art, which of the other four supreme martial arts do you want to practice first? Except for the missing parts of the Xuanwu True Kung Fu, the first three martial arts, my I have the complete version in my hands.”

Shi Tao frowned and thought deeply.

He has learned about all these martial arts.

 The first one, the Flying Star Nine Turns Technique, is an explosive method that can increase one's own strength several times in a short period of time. Whether it is used for fighting or escaping, it is the best choice.

 The second door, Xiaoyaoyou, is not only a physical and martial arts discipline, but can also cultivate the mind.

The third gate, three points of return to vitality, is a martial arts of fists and kicks, as well as a defensive martial arts, and it seems to be the most suitable for him at present.

 The fourth gate, Xuanwu Zhengong.

 He has longed for it for a long time.

This martial arts can be called the supreme martial arts with the highest limit. It can integrate various moves to use the ultimate move. Even if it is not as powerful as the martial arts of gods and demons, it is not much worse.

 But it is also the most difficult.

 Furthermore, Mr. Wang also said before that he does not have a complete version of the Xuanwu Zhengong in his hands.

 As a result, the difficulty of cultivation has increased several times.

 But it is not his character to retreat when faced with difficulties.

The road to martial arts is like sailing against the current. If you don’t advance, you will retreat. “Mr. Wang, I want to practice the Xuanwu True Skill first.”

Shi Tao's eyes lit up with fighting spirit.

"good."

 Lao Wang didn’t seem surprised by this.

 In other words, if Shi Tao didn't choose this way, he wouldn't be Shi Tao.

 The next moment, a stack of books appeared in his hand.

"These are the parts that I have collected. There are twelve Xuanwu True Skills, including Qinggong and Footwork. I have only collected seven. I'm afraid you have to find the rest yourself."

Shi Tao prostrated to the ground again, then stood up, bent down, and took it from the opponent's hand.

Each of these seven secret books is a masterpiece of martial arts, and it is a complete version that even the Awakened Association cannot produce.

 But Mr. Wang handed it over to him without reservation, and the affection involved was heavier than Mount Tai.

“After you take it back, take a good look at it. If you encounter something you don’t understand, you can come over at any time and ask me for advice. Although, I can’t teach you much.”

 A wry smile appeared on Mr. Wang's face.

Even the top experts of his time, no one dared to say that they had thoroughly studied this martial art, let alone him.

Shi Tao nodded solemnly and put these secret books into the space ring.

“By the way, take this book too and let’s practice together.”

 Lao Wang thought for a while and took out another secret book.

 “Getaway?”

Shi Tao had a look of surprise in his eyes.

"Um."

Mr. Wang nodded and said: "It is understandable to pursue stronger strength, but you must not forget your own practice. Otherwise, losing yourself on the road to martial arts will not be a good thing."

 After saying that, he sighed.

 Over the past few hundred years, many of the disciples he had accepted ended up like this.

"yes."

Shi Tao took it with respectful hands.

 “Okay, don’t look so serious.”

Mr. Wang smiled and said: "You have waited so long for this day's breakthrough. Now that you have succeeded, you should be happy."

Shi Tao smiled and shook his head.

 It is certainly gratifying to break through to the realm of heaven and humans.

 However, compared to the powerful ferocious beasts, this strength is still a bit unsatisfactory, isn't it?

He always has a bad premonition, as if something bad is about to come?

 “Don’t think so much.”

A flash of light flashed in Wang Lao's eyes, and he said: "There must be a road for cars to reach the mountain, and for boats to reach the bridge, it will be straight. Human race has experienced tens of thousands of years of hardships, and hasn't it continued to multiply to this day?"

 “That’s what Mr. Wang said.”

Shi Tao took a deep breath.

 According to what Mr. Wang said, the past few catastrophes of heaven and earth have become more dangerous each time.

For example, in ancient times, floods fell from the sky, and the human race suffered heavy casualties, leaving only one out of ten. In the end, a powerful man quarried stones to mend the sky, and the human race was able to thrive and thrive.

 Later, there was chaos among hundreds of kingdoms. Human races killed each other, blood flowed into rivers, and corpses were everywhere. The chaos lasted for thousands of years, and the number of people who survived was also less than one tenth.

 Later, demons and evil spirits spread everywhere, and the human race was almost forced into a desperate situation. Only a few cities were left to survive, and the wild areas were full of demons. In the end, under the leadership of a few strong men, the demon race was destroyed, and the human race once again turned the corner.

 These are all things that happened in the past. How similar are they to the current situation of Yan Kingdom?

 In the past eras, there were strong men of their respective eras who led the human race to survive.

That era...

 Shi Tao was full of fighting spirit.

 Why won’t there be a strong person who can lead the human race to survive?

 And these strong people, why can’t they be themselves?

 Seeing this, Mr. Wang nodded secretly.

This is what he admires most about Shi Tao.

 “I’m sorry, Mr. Wang, I was distracted just now.”

Shi Tao came back to his senses and apologized.

  “It doesn’t matter.”

 Lao Wang waved his hand and said: "By the way, I heard that the reason why you were able to make such a breakthrough this time was thanks to a little guy, right?"

"good."

Chen Fan's figure appeared in Shi Tao's mind and he said truthfully: "His name is Chen Fan. It was precisely because he provided the improved Zhenqi pill recipe that the number of high-grade Zhenqi pills refined increased dramatically. In the end, the plenary meeting It was my strength that allowed me to reach the threshold of breakthrough so quickly.”

 “So, he is an alchemy wizard?”

 Lao Wang’s eyes were slightly bright.

 In his time, there were many alchemy wizards.

 There is even a sect that is famous for its alchemy.

 Sometimes a precious elixir is refined, which can stir up troubles in all directions, and even he would be envious of it.

 “You can’t say that either.”

Shi Tao hesitated for a moment.

"oh?"

Mr. Wang became even more curious, "Does he have any other outstanding qualities?"

“Yes, Chen Fan is not only an alchemy wizard, but also a martial arts genius.”

Shi Tao smiled bitterly and said: "He is only seventeen or eighteen years old, and he is already a True Yuan realm warrior. Some people in the meeting have seen him kill several commander-level ferocious beasts alone with bows and arrows. Still, one hit will kill him." kill."

"There is such a person? Isn't he more powerful than the personal disciple you accepted?"

Even Mr. Wang was really surprised.

 “Yes, it is indeed better than Xiaoyu.”

Shi Tao sighed, his brows filled with sorrow.

“Why, is there something hidden in it?” Mr. Wang could see it at a glance.

"It's not a big deal, Mr. Wang doesn't need to worry about it." Shi Tao shook his head.

For Ling Yu's sake, it is not appropriate to publicize this kind of thing too much, especially in front of Mr. Wang, let alone to avoid affecting the former's image in the latter's mind.

He changed the subject and said, "Mr. Wang, to be honest with you, even I can't see through that boy Chen Fan."

Last time, he went to the Anshan City Martial Arts Association in person and met with Chen Fan, who was very indifferent.

 This made him doubt his own strength when he came back.

Although, this doubt was fleeting.

 After all, Chen Fan has entered the True Yuan Realm not long ago, and he is already in the third level of the True Yuan Realm. The gap is not small.

“You said that, which made me even more curious about this boy.”

Mr. Wang didn’t pursue the previous topic too much, and still smiled: “I wonder when that kid will come to the headquarters and let me meet him?”

 “There will come a day.”

Hearing this, Shi Tao couldn't laugh or cry.

From a certain point of view, he hoped that that day would come as late as possible, or even better, never happen.

 However, this is unrealistic.

Of course, now, he is already a warrior in the heaven and human realm. He can use the true energy in his body as a medium to borrow the power of heaven and earth. The power of each move is more than ten times that of before.

  Naturally, he will not worry about the future battle with Chen Fan.

 “Okay, then I’ll wait.”

 Lao Wang smiled and nodded.
