Chapter 329: Sparring
Chen Chuan immediately contacted Lu Fang. After the call was connected, he first asked about Lu Fang's current situation.
Lu Fang said that there was nothing unusual here. However, after Zhao Er woke up and learned that Zhao Qian was dead, he did not give up. Instead, he tried to attack again, but was knocked down by him again and completely controlled.
As for No. 13, she continued to stay in the house as usual, with no intention of going out. It seemed that she would not take any initiative unless someone gave her an order.
After Chen Chuan inquired, he said, "Brother Wu has found some information. Things may be different from what we previously thought." As he spoke, he passed some of his findings directly to Lu Fang. "Senior, please contact me after you have reviewed it."
After Lu Fang received it, he came to the desk. According to the schedule, today was the day to take medicine, so he took out a green pill and swallowed it, then went to the side to carry out his daily simple training.
Less than half an hour later, Lu Fang contacted him. After the connection was made, his voice was a little slow: "Junior, if we can't find any clues elsewhere, I think... she is very likely the senior's sister."
He expressed his speculation, "She might have been noticed by a senior executive at Lianwei Zhongyu, or perhaps she has some special value. Therefore, since she joined the company three years ago, her status has been higher than Zhao Qian's. It's also possible that Zhao Qian relied on her to get into Lianwei Zhongyu."
Chen Chuan said: "All kinds of situations are possible. We are just guessing now."
Lu Fang sighed, "Yeah, just a guess."
"Senior, do you want to continue investigating?" Chen Chuan asked again.
Lu Fang said, "When I first came to Central City, I just wanted to find and confirm the whereabouts of my senior's sister. If she is alive and not doing well, then I will try to rescue her from Zhao Qian. However, my decision cannot replace her thoughts, so I want to confirm how she is doing before making a decision.
If she needs help, I will try my best to help her. If she doesn’t need it, then I don’t think it’s necessary to bother her. I still think so now.”
Chen Chuan said calmly, "Although we now have a clue, things are more complicated. If her position in Lianwei Zhongyu Company is higher than Zhao Qian's, then we have almost no chance of contacting her. She may not even be in the central city of Jibei Road. With our current strength, it is impossible to investigate this matter thoroughly."
"yes……"
Lu Fang also felt powerless. The longer he stayed in the central city, the more he felt an invisible boundary. This boundary defined every person layer by layer. You could only move within this boundary. If you exceeded this boundary, you would be met with a ruthless attack.
When it was in Yangzhi City, it was a dam built by powerful families working together, but when it came to the central city, it was a wall blocked by countless more powerful forces, almost as if the end of the wall was visible.
He doesn't even have the identity of a citizen now, let alone contacting the company, he can't even get close to it. If Chen Chuan hadn't been willing to help, he wouldn't even be able to figure out what's happening in front of him.
Chen Chuan said, "Senior Lu, if you want to verify this and continue investigating, then perhaps there is only one way..." He paused and said, "Use the methods of us fighters."
Senior Lu was shocked.
He knew what Chen Chuan meant. It was for him to continue walking along the path he was on, a path that he could see and possibly break through boundaries.
With his talent, he actually had hope of moving up. After all, he had served as the vice president of the Fenxin Society. His talent was not the best in the academy, but he was outstanding and belonged to a very small number of people.
If he is compared with Wei Jun, Zhao Qian and others, what he lacks is only resources, but this is exactly what he lacks. From the two seniors who have been in the central city for a few years, you can see how difficult it is.
But he thought Chen Chuan was right. He had no ability. Even if he found his senior's sister, what would it matter? Without sufficient power, he was powerless to change anything.
He couldn't even help himself.
He said solemnly: "Junior, thank you for your reminder. I am a fighter. I will try to solve the problem using our fighter methods."
Chen Chuan said, "I'll get someone to take care of that later, Senior."
Lu Fang smiled and said, "No need. I can still handle this little thing. Junior, keep in touch. If there is anything you need me to do, please let me know."
Chen Chuan paused and said, "Okay."
After finishing the call with Lu Fang, he returned to the center of the training ground and continued his previous training.
He would pay attention to this matter, but not now. Now he needed to concentrate all his efforts on breaking through the third limit. Once he reached there, he would have crossed that boundary and would be able to see some things that he had not been able to see before.
It was not until noon that he ate a few nutritional pastes, washed up, and went out, going directly to the Haijing Field. This time he did not come out until ten o'clock in the evening. After leaving the interference area, he passed the day's medication feedback to Qingnang Yufang.
It was already past eleven o'clock when he returned to Xuangong Building. He did not waste any time and lit the incense burner. This time he put less incense, then took the main medicine and the auxiliary medicine together, and then silently guided the breathing method.
In the same trance, he woke up, but saw that it was already seven o'clock in the morning.
He felt as if his body was soaking in a hot spring. He was too lazy to get up, but his mind was very clear. The alienated tissues around him could feel full of vitality. This was because the body's nutrients and blood were concentrated in the alienated tissues.
But being calm is not enough. It is only one step. He still needs a strong opponent to help him achieve the fusion between body and spirit.
After sitting for a while, he got up, walked to the knife rack, picked up the Xuejun Knife and walked into the training room. Then he entered Wu Yi's platform and found Hong Fu's sparring service.
This service costs nine thousand per session, and the sparring time is three hours, which is equivalent to the simulated resources he currently has every day.
Although it is relatively expensive, it is worth it as long as the goal can be achieved. Moreover, active consciousnesses like Hongfu are unique to Wuyi Academy, and it is impossible to find such sparring services outside.
In fact, he still has one last entrance assessment, but firstly, the data reflected in the assessment is easy to leak to the outside world, and secondly, there is a difference between the assessment and sparring, so this option is ruled out.
When purchasing the service, he found that there was a privacy option at the back. After checking it, he could block anyone from querying the project content, but it would cost an additional thousand yuan.
He checked the box without hesitation. After knowing clearly that there were people in the school who might pay attention to him, he had to pay the money so that the other party would not be able to grasp his specific progress and situation.
After payment, Hong Fu's voice rang out: "Confirm that the student has purchased the sparring service. The duration of this sparring is three hours. The simulated scene has been selected and incorporated. Please confirm the sparring time."
Chen Chuan looked ahead and said, "Now is the time."
The next moment, with her red dress fluttering, Hong Fu seemed to walk out from nothingness, her bright eyes behind the veil fixed on him, and she held the goose-feather knife in her hand.
At the same time, the surrounding scene changed. The two people appeared on the shore of a large lake, with sparkling waves, blue sky and green lake, white clouds and red sun. There was soft mud and sand under their feet. The lake water kept surging onto the shore, seeming to wet the backs of their feet. There was a lake rock more than one person tall on the shore, with a few leisurely flying birds resting on it.
Chen Chuan took a breath, clasped his fists and saluted while holding the Xuejun Sword, "Please give me your guidance."
Hongfu picked up the knife and returned the salute.
Chen Chuan took a breath and released the restraints on the alienated organization, because he had used this method to compete with Hong Fu before, and Hong Fu's current level should be above that level.
So he let go as soon as he came up, the knife flashed out of the sheath, stepped forward, and swung the knife straight ahead
The red sleeves on the opposite side fluttered, and the goose-feather knife caused the red tassel on the end of the handle to float up. With just a light block of the knife, it collided with Xue Jun's knife. At the same time, an abnormal force rushed towards him.
This time it's not a test, but a sparring match. Hong Fu will not let him show his abilities to the fullest extent, but will suppress him in various ways instead.
Chen Chuan only took a few strikes before he felt a pressure he had never felt from any other opponent. This was because Hong Fu's footwork, moves, and strength were all flawless. Each strike was performed to the utmost of his ability, leaving him with no flaws or opportunities.
He knew that there was no such thing as physical exhaustion for Hongfu. Unless one could burst out more power in an instant or make good use of external factors, there was almost no possibility of winning in a simple contest of moves.
Moreover, if he is even slightly careless or makes an error in judgment, he is likely to be defeated within a few moves, which requires him to maintain high-intensity concentration from beginning to end.
But this kind of pressure is exactly what he needs.
He wanted to use Hong Fu to squeeze out his potential and let himself truly enjoy this battle, because he knew that every battle was a sculpting of himself, thus gradually achieving perfection in body and mind.
Three hours later, the sparring ended. Hongfu retreated into nothingness like the Tathagata, and the surrounding scene returned to its original state.
Chen Chuan stood in the middle of the field, silently feeling the mental and physical changes after this battle. He could feel that the vitality of the alienated organization was being guided out, and the control of consciousness over the body was gradually deepening.
In the process of reaching the third limit, the integration of breathing, body and spirit is required. The previous breathing methods, sitting meditation, and even taking medicine are all preliminary preparations and accumulations. After that, all of this will be released in the battle to make them more valuable.
In essence, it is to let yourself know which direction to go through the guidance of reality, give yourself more feedback, and then improve yourself.
But once or twice is obviously not enough, you have to keep pushing until you touch that layer of barrier.
