WU DONG QIAN - KUN
Chapter 2: Punching Penetrate

In the early hours of the morning, stood a desolate mountain peak surrounded by a thick white mist that caused one's vision to become blurred.

“Huff~huft~”

Within the dense forest behind the mountain peak, a sudden and intense gasp sounded. Upon taking a closer look, in the open space within the forest, a small figure could be seen hanging from the thick and sturdy branches using both hands. This tiny body borrows the pulling force from its arms to move up and down repeatedly. As he made this move, his body formed some strange poses; the kind of poses that utilized all the muscles in the body, training them all together.

In addition, there was some heavy black iron weight hanging on his arms and ankles. Sweat dripped from his clothes and onto the metal ballast, causing them to be drenched as well.

Of course, this petite figure was Lin Dong. Unlike his friends, he did not enjoy the luxury of wealth and wealth due to his childhood circumstances, but his resolute father taught him that the most important thing for training was willpower and perseverance. These things were his only advantage compared to his peers who were blessed with a good amount of wealth.

Sweat dripping into his eyes caused a stinging pain that made Lin Dong clench his jaw in response. He could already feel the pain that came from extreme fatigue. At this point, most people will definitely choose to rest and rest. However, he remembered what his father had said: that only during this time, one could break through his limits. Therefore....he must endure!

He really can't let go!

For the Family Competition half a year later, he needed to train as if his life was at stake!

The sensations you receive as you approach your limits make you feel dizzy and nauseous. Despite this, Lin Dong gritted his teeth and held on. Suddenly, he felt a strange heat radiating from within his body, and immediately this feeling refreshed him and aroused his spirit.

That is the power of Red Ginseng!

A few days ago, the Red Ginseng rod was meant to be used to heal Lin Xiao's wounds. However, at Lin Xiao's insistence, it was finally sent to Lin Dong's body.

It had to be said that this kind of potion really gave a huge boost to a low level Tempered Body practitioner like Lin Dong. In just a few days of training, Lin Dong could clearly feel that his body had become at least twice as strong as before.

However, while Red Ginseng gave a great boost to Lin Dong's training, the potion's strength was limitless. After all, this Red Ginseng was only a tier 1 elixir. Therefore, after five days, the effects of elixir gradually begin to disappear.

However, as the elixir effect disappears, it does not completely disappear. This was because Lin Dong's body was only at the initial stage of the strengthening process, so it was unable to absorb all the medicinal effects of the elixir. Hence, some of the medicinal effects remained hidden in the deepest parts of his body. Only when Lin Dong's body was pushed to the extreme would it finally be squeezed out and eaten by his hungry body.

As the warmth of the medicinal effect slowly seeped into his body, Lin Dong felt as if he could hear the countless cells in his body rejoicing together as all his fatigue and pain were gradually replaced with a refreshing energy.

“Hei..”.

Lin Dong grabbed the tree trunk and violently threw his body, with a somersault, he flipped in the air and continued landing on the ground. He stretched his back as all the bones in his body suddenly let out an explosive sound. To please Lin Dong, he discovered that his body had indeed become much more formidable.

"Layer 3 Angry Body!"

Lin Dong gripped his little fist tightly as he savored the power flowing through his muscles, his tiny face turning into a smile of surprise and excitement. Due to the circumstances of his family, ever since he started training, he had little chance to use the elixir. Thus, he did not expect that just after a single use, the results turned out to be very good.

“Hmm, not bad ..”

As Lin Dong was busy celebrating his progress, a voice echoed from beside him. He hurriedly turned his head to see Lin Xiao standing under a large tree, wearing plain clothes. Furthermore, he could see a shadow of a smile appearing on Lin Xiao's normally resolute face.

"Dad."

Lin Dong excitedly declared as he looked at Lin Xiao who was standing beside the tree.

Lin Xiao nodded his head as he approached Lin Dong. Scanning his son's body, a rare smile finally appeared as he said: "Layer 3 Tempered Body, not bad."

"That's all thanks to Red Ginseng", Lin Dong chuckled while dipping and shaking his head.

“Red Ginseng is just a tier 1 elixir, even if others consume it, they still need at least a month or two to advance the Tempered Body from the 2nd Layer to the 3rd Layer. This is the result of your hard work and practice.” Lin Xiao gently sighed as he looked at Lin Dong who was standing in front of him. He naturally realized how hard Lin Dong pushed himself during this period of time. Several times, he would see his wife cry and even though he did not say anything, as Lin Dong's father, he still felt heartache.

He understood that the reason why Lin Dong trained nonstop was because he wanted to achieve good results in the upcoming annual Family Competition which was half a year away. This would restore some of his father's honor and reputation in the Lin Family.

Lin Dong grinned happily as he felt that all his hard work and effort after such a long time had finally paid off. He felt that he was pursuing the top students in the Lin Family.

“You can throw iron load now. Since you have mastered the Tempered Body 3rd Layer, you are now only qualified to practice martial arts. Let me give you a set of fist techniques. ” Lin Xiao said.

After hearing this news, Lin Dong's jet-black eyes instantly lit up. Although he had finally reached the Tempered Body 3rd Layer, he did not know any techniques, and when he fought with others, he could only rely on brute strength. Therefore, in his heart, he was eager to learn this martial art to increase his fighting potential. However, due to the temperament of his father's body, Lin Xiao had yet to teach him any martial arts. Now that his chance had finally arrived, he was naturally overjoyed.

for the top category and the rest belong to the middle category. What I'll teach you is a lower category, a level 1 boxing technique, referred to as "Penetrating Punch." Lin Xiao explained.

Lin Dong nodded his head, he did not feel annoyed even though he had only learned a low category, level 1 fist technique. He understood that you needed to take it step by step, and for most people, it was already a great opportunity to learn a level 1 martial arts skill. It is said that in the Lin Family, the supreme martial arts was only a level 4 martial arts skill and this was obtained by the grandfather of the Hidden Scripture Pavilion by chance when he was still a member of the inner circle of the Lin Clan.

“Although martial arts have different levels, the most important part lies in the user himself. In the hands of powerful users, even a level 1 martial arts skill could become a powerful and deadly force. Therefore, the stronger one's body, the stronger the attack of martial arts was.” Lin Xiao stretched out his palm and gestured to Lin Dong: "Come, use all your strength and your greatest speed to attack me."

Lin Dong blinked his eyes, as he threw away the weight of iron strapped to his wrist, before dashing forward to deliver a punch to Lin Xiao.

As he faced Lin Dong's full-strength punch, Lin Xiao simply stretched out his hand, and deftly slipped his palm on Lin Dong's arm. A crisp crackling sound then followed before Lin Dong jumped in pain. Gritting his teeth, he hurriedly rolled up his sleeves only to find that his entire arm had been flushed red.

“Penetrating Fist requires one to exert force while clinging tightly to his clothes. If I had exerted more strength or even used a trace of Yuan power, your entire arm including your bones would have been completely destroyed. Lin Xiao leisurely followed up: "To master the Penetrating Fist, you need to practice with your clothes. Since this martial art emphasizes on exerting force while clinging tightly to one's clothes, as you practice this skill, the clothes that stick to your body will produce sound as well. There are a total of 9 forms for this skill, also known as 9 echoes. This is because when you use each shape, a sharp sound will echo. And since each form was used consecutively and 9 echoes finally sounded, his strength could even be compared to a level 2 martial arts skill.

“You better take a good look and memorize the nine forms carefully!”

With a low shout, Lin Xiao stretched out his limbs and positioned his position, looking as strong as a tiger. And when he exerted his movements, it looked as agile as a monkey. A series of crisp crackling sounds continuously rang out from his clothes.

Lin Dong stared intently as Lin Xiao's fist danced, his mind only concentrated on the scene in front of him. Everything else was ignored, and all that was reflected in his eyes was this series of fist techniques!

Because he was teaching Lin Dong, Lin Xiao deliberately slowed down and repeated each movement several times. Finally he slowly stopped and turned to face Lin Dong, asking: "Have you memorized it?"

Lin Dong muttered to himself for a while before nodding his head, somewhat unsure.

"Oh? Why don't you show it to me? ”

Astonishment flashed across Lin Xiao's face, although he had slowed his speed slightly, these 9 forms of Penetration Fists were not very easy to learn. Moreover, this was Lin Dong's first contact with martial arts, could he really manage to memorize it so quickly?

As if he could feel Lin Xiao's astonishment, Lin Dong took two steps forward, and stretched both fists out before he did a series of shapes, albeit in a bad and slow way.

A hint of excitement appeared on Lin Xiao's face as he stood to one side and watched his son pass through all 9 forms of Penetration Fists. Although her appearance was very amateurish and carried little substance, her achievements were still impressive especially considering this was the first time she had been exposed to the Penetrating Fist. In addition, it also shows that he is a talented and talented learner. After learning this fact, Lin Xiao felt very excited when he realized that his son inherited the potential he had at that age.

“Daddy, why when I use Penetrating Fist, not even a single sound?” Lin Dong asked helplessly as he finished a set of forms in a poor and slow manner.

“You brat, if it is so easy to produce sound, then this series of movements will not live up to its name.” Lin Xiao reprimanded before continuing: “Remember that when you practice, feel your strength flow carefully. As long as you can make your clothes follow your strengths and not vice versa, then you will be considered successful in learning this series of movements. Come on, try a few more times. ”

Lin Dong's mouth shouted these words several times before he tried to turn theory into action as he drilled. Meanwhile, Lin Xiao stood beside him, while occasionally pointing out some mistakes or mistakes.

In the wasteland in the forest, a young boy continued to dance. Even as sweat soaked his body, it did not distract him in the slightest, as his tiny face remained extremely solemn.

The afternoon quickly passed as Lin Dong continued to train without rest, and his efforts were not in vain. Lin Dong gradually became more proficient in the 9 forms of Penetration Fist and although he was still unable to produce any sound, his attitude did not waver at all.

"Let today's training end here, you can continue your practice tomorrow." Lin Xiao suddenly said as he glanced at the sky before turning to look at Lin Dong who was sweating profusely. The amount of dedication and perseverance the latter had displayed in his training had caused even him to be somewhat moved. Soon after, he quietly sighed as he groaned the fact that his years of despair had forced his son to mature much faster than usual.

"En, Dad please come back to rest first, let me stay a little longer before returning home." Lin Dong replied, his fists did not stop as he concentrated on following Lin Xiao's instructions to feel the small movements and changes in strength flowing through his muscles.

In response, Lin Xiao could only shake his head helplessly. Lin Dong's improvement was very different, but to cause the sound with Penetration Fists was not easy, Lin Xiao had previously practiced for a whole week before finally succeeding.

Quickly telling Lin Dong that he was leaving, Lin Xiao turned around with his hands on his back. As he turned around, a smiling expression appeared on his face, the perceptive ability that Lin Dong displayed today made him very satisfied.

“This child is extraordinarily perceptive and has an unrelenting determination even surpassing me in my prime, this should not be too difficult for him...”.

“Pak!”

As this thought flashed through Lin Xiao's mind, a loud, clear, and sharp 'Pa' voice suddenly sounded from behind. Immediately, his face became stiff as he staggered forward. However, at this moment, a bright light shone in his eyes.

"It seems that it is not too difficult but rather an easy problem for him to solve ......"
