The next day.
Zheng Ya got up for his morning exercise and had just stepped out of the guesthouse when Xu Qi and Fu Qingyao followed closely behind, running off to an open space in the suburbs to practice martial arts.
Fu Qingyao and Xu Qi were practicing martial arts moves: Bajiquan, Baguazhang, and Babu Danchan Qinggong. They moved and flipped across the open ground, leaving afterimages as their fists and palms whistled through the air, creating thunderous sounds like tigers and leopards.
However, Zheng Ya was practicing supernatural moves.
At first glance, his fist and palm techniques seemed no different from those of Fu Qingyao and the other person, as if they were identical.
However, Zheng Ya's movements were slow.
Bajiquan and Baguazhang allowed him to express the essence of Tai Chi.
This made Fu Qingyao and Xu Qi notice the unusual situation in his martial arts performance after they finished practicing. They went over to observe and learn: "Mom, is he practicing Bajiquan and Baguazhang?"
"It is and it is not, or rather, it is similar in form but not in spirit."
"Could this be the difference between a martial arts master and an ordinary martial artist? The powerful Bajiquan is slower than Taijiquan?" Fu Qingyao commented in surprise, filling in the blanks in her mind.
However, Xu Qi shook her head and said, "Mom, you may have guessed the wrong way."
I feel like the head of the household's every move affects the surrounding air, as if the air in the entire world flows and explodes in response to his every action.
"Huh, it seems that's really the case. I thought it was just my imagination. How strange, what's going on?" Fu Qingyao and Xu Qi were puzzled, gradually immersing themselves in the atmosphere of Zheng Ya's martial arts demonstration and beginning to comprehend it.
In fact, Zheng Ya, after transforming into Jia Dongxu last night and beating up Jia Zhangshi and Yi Zhonghai, returned to the guesthouse to rest and realized the mystery of spatial transformation while sleeping.
After all, since Zheng Ya practiced the Thousand Faces Shrinking Technique, he has developed three kinds of superpowers, which have improved his entire body's cells, making them spatial and resilient.
To put it simply, every cell in the space has been activated by the spiritual energy of the space.
Cells possess spatial power, which gives them versatility and resilience.
The key is that Zheng Ya has lived three lifetimes and inherited the will to cultivate supernatural abilities and attain enlightenment. Under the pressure of powerful enemies waiting for him to return to the Qian Yuan Continent to die, he has no time to lose in developing supernatural spiritual arts.
Having three special abilities makes cultivation more difficult than for others.
Others possess a unique ability; at each major realm, one only needs to develop one unique spiritual technique to advance to the next realm.
Zheng Ya must develop three supernatural spiritual techniques in order to advance to the next level.
Therefore, transforming the Thousand Faces Shrinking Technique into the ability to change one's appearance in countless ways was the key to helping him develop spatial magic.
Because of the insights gained in his dream last night, Zheng Ya felt as if he had gained something, yet he was still confused and following his feelings when he practiced boxing. Unconsciously, he integrated the boxing and palm techniques into his body, forming the power of the integration of cells in his body. When he punched, his palms caused the outside air to tremble, which had a hidden meaning of the unity of man and nature.
It's equivalent to a semi-enlightened state.
A sudden enlightenment is a coveted opportunity for both martial arts practitioners and Taoist cultivators; it is something that can only be encountered by chance.
As Zheng Ya got into the swing of things, he felt like every cell in his body could follow the punches and palm strikes, unleashing all his power, though he was fighting very slowly.
At first glance, what's so special about this?
It's not that simple. You have to know that the human body has unlimited potential. Even a weak woman, without professional training, who may have the strength of 100 pounds in her arms, can only exert 35 pounds of force.
In the case of a martial artist, with the strength of a hundred pounds of arm, it is possible to generate the force of three to five hundred pounds.
The prerequisite is to exert the full power of the whole body.
The difference is too great.
Zheng Ya used all his strength in every move, and because he fought slowly, he did not display unparalleled destructive power.
On the contrary, Zheng Ya explored the ability to unleash the full power of his body through fist and palm techniques, which is an interpretation of how every cell can exert its ability and coordinate its combat.
In other words, Zheng Ya applied his ever-changing abilities to martial arts techniques!
Of course, the credit goes to the assistance of time and planning abilities, which shape and control the time, enabling the space to transform and take shape.
The transformation of space signifies endless changes.
This limits Zheng Ya's starting point for this spatial spiritual technique to an infinitely high level. He has not yet formed a spatial origin spiritual pattern and is currently comprehending and evolving through martial arts practice. He is just waiting for the moment of advancement to achieve the spatial illusion spiritual technique pattern.
Zheng Ya had spent over an hour demonstrating the entire set of martial arts moves. In his final move, a powerful strike resembling a mountain split, he leaped into the air, transforming into a human sword, headfirst and feet up, and unleashed a devastating slash: "Boom!"
With a single slash, he unleashed the power of space, cutting a gash more than three zhang long and three chi deep through the hillside forest.
Wherever it goes, it cuts through with a single stroke.
The blade splits trees when it meets them, crumbles rocks when it meets them, and wind and waves carve through earth when it meets it.
With a "whoosh, rustle," a spectacular sight appeared with a single slash.
The sound startled the three of them. Zheng Ya landed on the withered grass, raised his hand, and stared in disbelief at his pale, rosy palm. Xu Qi covered her mouth and exclaimed, "My God, how is this possible? A large patch of frost on the ground has evaporated..."
"The land turned to frost by the white dew, turning into barren land—is this the power of a martial arts master?" Fu Qingyao imagined again.
After regaining his senses, Zheng Ya was overjoyed. Sensing the changes in the supernatural space, he vaguely came to a conclusion: by trying all sorts of transformations, he could cause the space to materialize into spiritual runes.
It is ever-changing; at least ten thousand simulated variations are needed to form a complete model.
The changing forms encompass everything in the world.
Once you can transform your special ability into the form you want, you need to simulate the characteristics of that form. Whether you can successfully transform depends on the limitations of your strength and special ability.
Spatial abilities possess a wide range of characteristics.
This made Zheng Ya feel that the people in the courtyard were going to suffer. However, Zheng Ya had no psychological burden at all in his fight against the four enemies: Yi Zhonghai, Old Lady Long, Jia Zhangshi, and Jia Dongxu.
The enemy is a poisonous snake; who wants to be the foolish Mr. Dongguo?
When dealing with a hopeless enemy, Zheng Ya believed in one principle: use any means necessary, just get it over with.
What experiments should we do with them next?
Xu Qi noticed him grinning foolishly and walked closer to him, saying, "Honey, that was a brilliant move of yours!"
"Haha, so-so, third in the world, haha." Zheng Ya didn't know how to explain, so he laughed it off and led the two back to the guesthouse to wash up. Then he took Bao'er, who had gotten up and was looking for her mother, out for breakfast.
After Zheng Ya finished breakfast and rushed to the purchasing department of the steel rolling mill to report for duty and submit the purchasing tasks for the new day, he received a message from the purchasing agent, Xiao Liu: Li Deren has returned.
I heard that the temporary prison cells at the police station are full of prisoners, but people like Li Deren, who insist they were framed and have someone vouch for them, have all been released and sent home.
Even Hu Laiwang from the security department was released.
This made Zheng Ya very unhappy. Li Deren was corrupt, accepted bribes, and raped women. He was a complete scoundrel. Did he think he could just ignore it because he had someone behind him?
And then there's Hu Laiwang, who gave Zheng Ya a 100-point value for betrayal, and it kept increasing by 100 points. He was clearly an enemy, yet he was released just like that?
Zheng Ya felt somewhat displeased, but he also considered the possibility that this might be a long-term strategy by the old director to catch a big fish.
