Chapter 829: [(639)] The Three Realms of Martial Arts, Double Domain! (Seeking monthly tickets and subscriptions) Chapter 829: [(639)] The Three Realms of Martial Arts, Double Domain! (Seeking monthly tickets and subscriptions) “[Seek… Time-space Ability User… High dimensions… Ninth Rank is not the end, but the beginning…]”
Pei Jinye stared at this string of secret code.
Had it not been for Xing Tian’s timely reminder, this secret code would have been intercepted by the Knight Order by now.
However, he was curious.
Where exactly have his senior sister and the others gone to now…
“[Have they really gone to a high-dimensional world?]”
“[It’s a possibility.]” Xing Tian replied, “[According to handwriting comparison, this is indeed Lin Xiawei’s handwriting, and it was written in a state of panic.]”
On the maglev train.
This was the third time Pei Jinye had disguised himself since his return trip.
Dragon City was exceedingly strict in monitoring spatial fluctuations.
Thus, disguising himself was his most effective means of deception.
The train whistled through the tunnel.
Under the cover of night, it moved like a primitive beast.
No one noticed anything amiss about the middle-aged man who was leaning on his seat with his eyes closed, resting.
Yet, in reality, he was engaging in conversation by controlling his brain waves.
“[Assuming there really is a higher-dimensional space, my senior sister Lin Xiawei must have been able to leave the secret code only after triggering some condition… How do I communicate with them?]”
Xing Tian fell silent as well.
Pei Jinye felt powerless.
Even when clashing head-on with a Transcendent Ninth Rank powerhouse, he would not feel this sense of helplessness.
But when it comes to matters on such a higher level, he was no different from an ant.
This made Pei Jinye understand a lesson even more clearly.
He, was weak.
Really weak.
“Having gotten used to reigning supreme in Different World, I did get a bit carried away.”
“How could a mere Ninth Rank be my limit…”
“Since my senior sister and my step-master could be devoured by the spacetime rift, it means there is also a probability that I could be devoured… Is it really that difficult to survive there?”
Pei Jinye fell into deep thought.
“Enough of that, this time I have collected quite a few Extraordinary-Human Gene sequences, I hope the little guy can bring me…”
North Continent.
In the vicinity of Red Sand Star Island, formidable auras descended.
Fierce beasts scattered around, but they did not completely give way; instead, they retreated to a few dozen miles away and let out roars.
The whole nearby sea area was pitch-black.
Massive whirlpools appeared as though they could devour people.
“What have you done to upset them?” the newcomer asked in a deep voice.
The first batch of members who appeared around the sea area also felt helpless, “We were attacked by them before we even landed…”
“Something is fishy.” An elder beside them frowned and spoke.
Everyone looked at him.
The elder showed no panic and called out, “Huang Song.”
“Present.”
A burly man in his thirties stepped forward, with a tricolored parrot stuck on his shoulder.
“Go and talk to them, see if you can find out anything.”
“Yes.”
Huang Song took his leave.
“A Huang? A Beast Master?”
Hearing this, the elder nodded and said to a Ninth Rank colleague beside him, “Give Huang Song another ten years, and he’ll be capable of Opening Territory with the Power of the Domain. By then, my Knight Order will have the chance to cultivate a Ninth Rank fierce beast.”
“It seems that the bloodline of the Huang Family is indeed strong.”
Suddenly, a scream came from the distance.
The elder’s complexion changed, and he hurried over.
Huang Song’s left arm was dripping with blood, already hollowed out, and even the tricolored parrot that was on his arm was nowhere to be seen.
Looking into the distance, an ugly blue octopus was seen wrapping around something and eating.
Huang Song staggered back.
The elder embraced him in a hurry, his face turning pale.
“Not good, he’s been poisoned.”
“Damn beasts!”
Dawn was breaking.
Cao Yingjun had just opened his eyes when he saw Liu Limin sneaking back in. Rubbing his eyes, Cao Yingjun said, “You went out?”
“I went running on the field with Old Pei; now I feel refreshed,” Liu Limin said in a low voice.
Cao Yingjun was stunned, “What time is it now?”
“Five… sixteen,” Liu Limin glanced at his watch.
“Damn, you two beasts are really hardcore,” Cao Yingjun pulled the covers over himself and wailed.
But Liu Limin took a look at Zhong Taishu’s spot and curled his lip, “Hardcore my foot. When I went out with Old Pei just after four, Zhong Taishu had already gone to practice.”
Cao Yingjun suddenly wailed louder.
Soon.
As dawn approached.
Downstairs at Jingzhe Building, in the martial arts practice area.
“The essence of the Long Arm Fist Style is the word ‘arm.’ The basic moves seem like they are for cultivation, but in reality, they offer both offense and defense. You need to have strength, combined with movement technique, to gain a decent advantage in close combat.”
Teacher Gu was demonstrating in the martial arts area.
Pei Jinye was “unfortunately” selected as the demonstration partner.
Ji Yuyan watched him, unable to resist snickering, while Pei Jinye felt helpless.
“When you are practicing the Long Arm Fist Style, you must pay attention to adaptability; it has many variations… Come at me with a strike.”
Teacher Gu suddenly called out.
Pei Jinye nodded, controlled his speed, and threw a punch.
Although Teacher Gu was old, his movements were very swift. With a swing of his arm, he used his shoulder to block Pei Jinye’s arm. Immediately following, a punch stopped right before Pei Jinye’s eyes.
Teacher Gu executed all these moves in the blink of an eye and turned his head to ask, “Did everyone see that clearly?”
“I didn’t see it clearly,” someone shouted loudly.
Pei Jinye looked over.
It was Ji Wutian making a face.
He was the one who had just spoken.
“Teacher Gu, since Ji Wutian didn’t see clearly, why not let him experience it firsthand?”
Teacher Gu nodded.
“I… damn it.” Ji Wutian’s smile suddenly froze on his face.
He looked at Pei Jinye in disbelief.
Pei Jinye grinned at him, “I’m watching you.”
“I…”
Ji Wutian didn’t finish his sentence as he was pushed forward by Ji Yuyan.
“Damn.”
He glared at these two rascals.
Then he stepped forward.
Teacher Gu looked at him, “You didn’t understand just now, did you?”
Ji Wutian managed a sheepish smile.
Next, he fell straight to the ground…
“Now do you understand?”
“Understood, understood.”
“Now that you understand, try to strike at me…”
Ji Wutian looked over, unsure.
Teacher Gu puffed his beard and glared, “Strike already.”
Ji Wutian struck…
And was knocked down with a single punch.
He immediately surrendered, flat on the ground.
“So little ambition,” Teacher Gu said irritatedly before continuing to explain some power-release techniques of the Long Arm Fist Style.
“Teacher Gu, I heard that the Long Arm Fist Style, combined with some killer moves, is even more powerful. Will you teach us those later?”
Suddenly, a bold male student raised his hand and asked.
Teacher Gu looked over and snorted, “Killer moves? With the little Vitality you all have now, you’re not worried about throwing your backs out. First, make your tendons and bones solid. Judging from you lot, you don’t practice the Ancient Martial Dao in your daily lives, which is why you have so little Vitality…
Let me tell you, if you continue this way, you won’t even make it into the Extraordinary Seventh Rank. The weakest in the Extraordinary Seventh Rank is also a Lower Third Realm complete master.”
“Teacher Gu, it’s not that we don’t practice; it’s just that some seniors have said before that the path of Ancient Martial arts has no future and it can cause harm to the body,” a student couldn’t help but defend.
“Is that really how they worded it? If that’s true, then whoever told you that is either a bad person or a fool,” Teacher Gu said irritably.
The student who had just spoken turned red and dared not argue any further.
He really couldn’t remember clearly.
Teacher Gu wasn’t targeting him specifically and continued, “The path of Ancient Martial arts is divided into Nine Ranks, Upper, Middle, and Lower. The Lower Three Realms are Power Practice, Exfoliate, and Bone Forging. If you want to enter the higher ranks, it’s best to reach the level of Bone Forging.
Only when you reach this level will your Vitality be able to support you in Opening Territory…I should remind you that opening the Domain of an Extraordinary Seventh Rank is not so simple; if your Physical Body is not strong enough, not only will you fail to open the Domain, but you’ll also be harmed by the backlash, being stuck below the Extraordinary Sixth Rank for life. You’ll suffer when that time comes.”
The crowd inhaled sharply at his words.
“That bad?” a student couldn’t help but exclaim.
“Of course, us teachers hope you all become strong,” Teacher Gu hummed. “Although we need to tailor our instruction to each individual, these basic principles must still be told to you all. The Lower Three Realms are not difficult; what’s difficult is your attitude.
Martial arts and transcendence are different. Those of you who are not from the Body Technique System need to endure hardship to cultivate to this level. Some of you aren’t even at the level of Power Practice, your bodies are so fragile, I don’t even know what to say…
In the same rank, if you get into close combat, you’re as good as dead. You really shouldn’t disbelieve it. Dragon City martial arts university has begun to emphasize Ancient Martial arts in recent years because too many elite individuals focused on cultivating only their Transcendent abilities and ignored these life-saving skills, resulting in many tragic losses.”
The students’ expressions shifted again.
“These two years, I will plan to cultivate each of you to the Bone Forging Realm. If you still can’t reach the Bone Forging Realm after two years, there’s nothing I can do for you; it will simply mean you don’t have the potential to be strong, but I don’t think that should be the case. Being able to enter the Research Institute also shows to a certain degree that you’re capable, so you shouldn’t underestimate yourselves.”
“Teacher, like me, who has already entered the Middle Three Realm, do I still need to continue practicing these basic Techniques?”
Just then, someone spoke.
Many people looked up.
Liu Limin smirked at that person.
“Can this guy really not live without showing off?”
Cao Yingjun also curled his lip.
The speaker was Pang Fei, who had been beaten down by Pei Jinye during the baseline assessment.
Ji Wutian looked at Pei Jinye, his eyes teasing.
“Isn’t this the guy you beat up? Why don’t you say now, ‘A loser trying to talk big, what more is there to say?’ I feel like that line would be perfect for showing off.”
Pei Jinye couldn’t be bothered with him.
Teacher Gu looked at Pang Fei, who slightly lifted his head, enjoying the attention of the moment.
“Those of you who have some foundation will naturally have other courses, and I will be even stricter in assessing you.”
Pang Fei’s face changed slightly upon hearing this.
Teacher Gu’s gaze returned, speaking indifferently, “The Middle Three Realm is nothing to boast about; only those braves who have entered the Upper Three Realms can truly be called warriors.”
Most of the students didn’t understand the meaning of his words.
But Pei Jinye did.
Those who entered the Upper Three Realms never had a good end.
Yet some still step into the Upper Three Realms.
Because it is the pursuit.
It is the pursuit of the pinnacle of Martial Arts.
Pei Jinye was a little lost in thought.
Because he was a warrior of the Upper Three Realms!
A warrior who could sweep away all these students with a single punch!
One could see that Teacher Gu was a bit melancholic.
As if he had a story to tell.
No one dared to ask more until class ended. Watching Teacher Gu leave alone, Pei Jinye couldn’t help but feel a bit heavy in his heart.
“It seems that Teacher Gu is only at the second stage of the Middle Three Realm–Organ Refining.”
Ji Wutian murmured.
“Has he not yet reached the Upper Three Realms?” Liu Limin curiously asked.
Ji Wutian shook his head, “The Upper Three Realms aren’t so easily reached, even the last stage of the Middle Three Realm–the Dharma Body Realm–is not easy to break through. I know many strong Body Technique experts who can’t break into the Dharma Body Realm…

Let alone the Upper Three Realms, which are the stage for the absolute strongest in Martial Arts.”
Ji Wutian’s tone couldn’t help but betray a hint of longing.
“The Upper Three Realms… are they really that strong?” Liu Limin suddenly couldn’t resist asking.
Immediately, Ji Wutian and Cao Yingjun looked at him as if he were an idiot.
“Strong? If warriors of the same rank also cultivate in the Upper Realms of Martial Arts, ten of you wouldn’t be enough to hang with a single finger of theirs… I’m saying, these are the absolute strongest in Martial Arts. If they reach the Seventh Rank, that means a Double Domain!”
