Chapter 18: As You Wish!

  The King of East Sea sat there stunned for a full half minute.

  Don't like it?

  "Are you saying that Qin Zheng didn't take a liking to her?" East Sea King asked again.

  "Not bad." A hint of a smile appeared on Mo Gong Zhu's pale face, thinking that she was also stimulated enough at the beginning, and seeing her father like this was quite interesting.

  "Donghai Wangdao said: 'Can you take out Jinliezhi and Donghai Dielangquan?'"

  Princess Mo nodded.

  This made the King of Donghai even more incredulous.

  "Could it be that his martial pulse can generate martial skills?" The Eastern Sea King pondered.

  "It's very likely." Mo Gongzhu also retracted her smile, "Qin Zheng's martial pulse, until now I haven't discovered it, it should be a hidden-type martial pulse, this makes it very likely to be an advanced-level martial pulse."

  The martial pulse is the most fundamental and mysterious part of a martial artist.

  Ordinary martial arts, just let one person step into the martial way.

  In the martial world, there are some special martial veins, such as the Tian Yan Wu Mai, which can evolve into a special bat wing. This is a unique martial skill that evolves with the practitioner's cultivation and transformation of their martial vein. These martial skills based on martial veins are collectively known as "Shen Tong" and have infinite potential, making it difficult to predict what the future holds.

  "No wonder your grandfather values him so much." Donghai Wang exclaimed in surprise, "It seems that we will have to reevaluate our opinion of him from now on."

  Princess Mo said: "Father King, if you want to keep our royal family safe, there is one thing that must be done."

  Donghai Wangdao said: "You speak."

  Princess Mo said seriously: "The entire royal palace must serve Qin Zheng, only then can we possibly escape this unprecedented great crisis!"

  Yu Lian Temple

  Many martial arts made Qin Zheng feel enlightened.

  After returning to the Jade Lotus Temple, he sat in the cultivation hall. Now, the outside world was bustling because of the Jade Lotus Temple. Perhaps at the next moment, countless people would rush in. It could be said that the entire world was in a state of noise, but Qin Zheng's heart was even more peaceful.

  He seemed to have forgotten everything, and was just immersed in his own world.

  The whole person is in an optimal state.

  The whole body relaxes, and the heart is calm.

  Martial arts like the Tiger's Fist Stance, rely heavily on intuition and can't be fully mastered through diligent practice alone. Watching the legendary East Sea Wave-Piled Fist, renowned for its awe-inspiring power across the Divine Martial Continent, only serves to further verify the extraordinary nature of the Tiger's Fist Stance, naturally causing Qin Zheng to become even more deeply engrossed in it.

  Intuition is something that can't be clearly stated or explained, it can't be touched or seen, it's just a feeling.

  To find the feeling, it can be found through various martial arts techniques.

  Martial arts creation itself is a kind of perception of various forces, and Donghai Chonglangquan is even more based on the tidal wave of heaven and earth.

  So the Qin government continued to experience it.

  Nowadays, the Tiger Fist he can exert is simply a superficial skill, although it has condensed many tiger styles and merged into one, but it still has a considerable distance from truly exerting the powerful Tiger Fist, because it is far from being able to be used at will.

  What is doing as one pleases?

  It's not about doing whatever you want, it's about being able to do what you want and show what you want, that's called doing as one pleases.

  True freedom is within, and that's Qin Zheng's current goal. Only when he truly achieves it will he have the opportunity to make a perfect move towards Dou Huai.

  Sitting like this, thinking about the Tossing Tiger stance.

  It wasn't long before Qin Zheng's body suddenly tensed up, his eyes snapped open, and he sprang to his feet from the ground. His right hand rose, and he threw a punch into the air.

  "Roar!"

  Fists move, tiger roars out.

  The air around him was filled with a dense rhythmic vibration, and his right hand seemed to transform into a majestic tiger-like claw.

  His left hand also swiftly struck downwards to the left.

  The tiger roars out.

  "The left hand is a tiger!"

  "Right hand is tiger!"

  "Even the feet are tiger!"

  Qin Zheng lifted his right foot and stepped on the ground.

  The foot moved, the tiger roared out, as if a tiger king had been sleeping inside the right foot and was suddenly awakened. With a heavy step on the ground, an invisible wave circle appeared on the surface, pressing down on the ground, causing it to sink slightly by more than 20 centimeters, leaving behind a footprint.

  The left foot steps out, with the same result.

  "The kneecap is a tiger!"

  Right leg lifted, knee cap facing the void and forcefully pushing forward.

  The air rolled violently, emitting a dense explosive sound, and gathered together was a tiger's roar.

  "Legs are also tiger!"

  The left leg swung freely into the air, and a tiger's roar shook the ears.

  Body leaned back a little more.

  "A tiger is behind!"

  He rushed forward with it.

  "The chest is a tiger!"

  He continued to fight like this, no longer limited to the simple punching power of his fists, but with both hands, arms, legs, back, chest, buttocks and head, every part of his body could launch a tiger-fighting stance.

  This is what it means to be truly carefree.

  Every part of the body is an attacking point and every part is a triggering point for the fierce tiger pose.

  Qin Zheng's fists came down one after another, the ground was full of potholes everywhere, his movements were as fierce as a tiger, his breathing was as fierce as a tiger, his eyes were as fierce as a tiger, it was as if the Tiger King had been reborn, laughing proudly in the mountains and forests. The more he fought, the more excited he became, the more he realized the true meaning of the Tihu stance, that is, the willpower and faith of the Tihu stance. No matter what, as long as there is faith, perseverance, one can succeed. This is the Tihu stance, which interprets the truth of martial arts.

  "Roar!"

  Taking a deep breath, the sound of wind and thunder exploded between his mouth and nose.

  Qin Zheng looked up and saw a boulder over 10 meters long and more than 5 meters high in front of him, with the three words "Cultivation Grounds" written on it. He strode forward, his footsteps echoing through the air as he moved. If he were to truly transform into a tiger king and suddenly pounce, his muscles would tense up like those of a mighty tiger in the desolate mountains, worshiped by all beasts, striking fiercely at the boulder.

  Boom!

  He was that unstoppable shockwave, directly shattering the boulder into pieces. As he fell to the ground, his breath dissipated, and the scattered rocks danced around him.

  "Hmm..."

  Qin Zheng let out a mouthful of turbid air, and his whole body felt extremely comfortable, without any fatigue, but instead was full of energy.

  He sat down cross-legged again.

  "The tiger's momentum has been freely unleashed as one wishes."

  "If you want to master the Tiger Fist, you need to observe the postures of ten thousand ferocious tigers; this cannot be rushed."

  "Let's cultivate the Divine Soldier Domain first."

  Cultivating the Divine Soldier Realm is said to be difficult, as difficult as ascending to heaven; it's said to be simple, as simple as breathing in air, everything depends on one's blood and energy.

  Therefore, with sufficient blood and energy, cultivating the Divine Soldier Domain will not be difficult, and it is possible for anyone to cultivate it easily. However, if you want to perfectly display the power of the Divine Soldier Domain, that's a different story.

  According to Yan Tingyu, in order to initially exert the wonders of the Divine Soldier Domain, one must first reach the Intent and Martial Realm. The Intent and Martial Realm can freely control the divine soldiers flowing through the blood vessels to various places, making every part transform into a divine soldier's sharp weapon.

  Now he is just at the level of Lì Wǔ Jìng, still far from Yì Wǔ Jìng, Qì Wǔ Jìng and Lüè Wǔ Jìng.

  But this does not mean that the Divine Armament Domain is currently just as simple as a mere fusion of armaments.

  "For now, it's difficult for the Divine Army Domain to exert its various methods."

  "But also can't give up at this point and wait until reaching the state of Intent and Martial Arts to find a way to display its subtleties."

  "First of all, I need to extend this shield."

  Qin Zheng raised his right hand, and the center of his palm became transparent. Inside, the Bloodline Shield floated up and down within his blood vessels, perfecting itself as it merged with the broken horn of the Magma Thunder Red Wind Beast. As it continued to merge with his blood energy, it slowly rose in power, but just how much stronger it would become depended on his bloodline.

  "Sip!"

  He took a deep breath.

  Heaven and earth essence gathered in the form of Douhu's posture, suddenly rushing into the palm of his right hand, just like the true yuan cultivated from the realm of Qi Wu, placed inside the Guardian Shield.

  Qin Zheng manipulated that strand of vital energy, following his own thoughts, directly colliding with the mechanism on the surface of the guardian shield.

  "Bang!"

  The Guardian Shield vibrates and shoots out a sharp curved blade.

  A finger touch.

  The shield of protection suddenly flew out and rotated an arc in mid-air before flipping back.

  Qin Zheng stared at the returning Guardian Shield, his eyes narrowing, his aura suddenly changing, like a tiger king, reaching out to grab the Guardian Shield.

  "Tiger's Might!"

  The shield of protection was thrown away.

  "Roar!"

  The tiger's roar shakes the sky.

  Look at the air around the Guardian Shield rolling up rapidly, and on top of it seems to gather a tiger king, that is the tiger king standing on the mountain peak laughing at the mountains and forests, colliding with the Guardian Shield.

  This is what Qin Zheng wants.

  The Divine Warrior Domain is temporarily unable to be unleashed, so it combines with the Fighting Tiger Stance to launch the Fighting Tiger Stance with a defensive shield.

  When the Guardian Shield returned again, he leaped up and stepped on the Guardian Shield, launching a series of Douhu Stances in mid-air.

  Bang!

  The result was just two punches, and the shield of protection fell to the ground, and Qin Zheng was also interrupted.

  "Come again!"

  Qin Zheng once again threw out his defensive shield and leaped forward to display his skills.

  It's like this, failure after failure, practice after practice, and the days pass quickly.

  More than 20 days have passed in the blink of an eye.

  Qin's skills have also become increasingly proficient, allowing him to stand on the flying Guardian Shield and attack while defending. His martial arts training has also made rapid progress, but he still hasn't touched the edge of achieving mastery in the realm of Force Wu.

  As the boundary is gradually improved, breaking through is no longer as simple as it used to be.

  This day was when Qin Zheng and Yan Tingyu had agreed to meet every month.

  Because Yan Tingyu was unwilling to enter the East Sea King's palace, he lived alone in a small courtyard in one corner of the imperial capital. They were both focused on their respective paths, one on martial arts and the other on alchemy, so they rarely had time to gather and discuss things. Therefore, they would set a specific date every month, of course, there was a previous appointment, mainly to verify Qin Zheng's bloodline.

  Qin Zheng first practiced for two hours before washing up, having a meal and leaving the palace.

  Out of the Wangfu, outside is bustling extraordinary.

  More than twenty days have passed and the imperial capital has gathered even more people.

  The charm of the Nine-Colored Lotus Sutra was too astonishing, and the number of warriors who came to the Imperial Capital also reached an astonishing level. At this time, it should be difficult for anyone to dare to disobey the orders of the top figures of the three major tribes: human, demon, and sea. Someone would secretly make a move against Qin Zheng, but Qin Zheng didn't care too much about it, he had his own ideas.

  As he turned a corner, Qin Zheng discovered that many people were secretly watching him, including those from the Donghai Wangfu and other forces. He pretended not to notice.

  Just wandering around on the streets like this.

  Occasionally strolling along the roadside shops.

  His mind was calculating how to get rid of these people and go to Yanyu's small courtyard.

  "Open it quickly, I'm freezing to death."

  "What kind of monster is this, it's going to be the death of me, it's so cold that the ground has frozen over."

  Cries and shouts came from the front of the street.

  People nearby were fleeing in a flurry, and many people were screaming. Some who had not practiced martial arts ran slower and were frozen to death.

  A two-meter-long wolf-like monster appeared in front of the street.

  The wolf's entire body was covered in light blue fur that moved with the wind, clean and without a single stray hair. Its two ears stood upright, its wolf eyes gleaming green, as it opened its bloody great mouth, exhaling icy air that froze the ground beneath it. On each of its four paws were three eagle-like claws, sharper than knives or swords, which could lightly scrape against rocks with ease, like a steel knife cutting through tofu.

  Ice Wolf!

  Qin Zhengyi's demonic beast, a relatively ferocious demonic beast, is not of a high rank, being only at the level of Force Martial Realm. However, it is extremely powerful and can reach the height of Force Martial Realm Great Completion. Moreover, it is fearless and will recklessly charge even when facing an opponent from the Energy Martial Realm.

  Look again at the back of the ice wolf, and a proud little hen is sitting on it.

  If it were someone else, Qin Zheng would definitely describe this cloud as a proud phoenix. But in his heart, he had already decided that this cloud was just a proud little hen with no ability at all, relying on her father's influence, just like Qin Yi.

  "Get out of my way, you'll get yourself killed or frozen to death, I won't be responsible!" Yun Duo shouted loudly.

  Qin Zheng knew as soon as he heard it that this cloud was definitely harboring a deep hatred towards him, and had come to take revenge after learning that he had left the East Sea King's palace.
