Chapter 84: Accepting a Disciple on Behalf of the Master

"I am untalented; at present, I am still at the first layer, half a step away from the second layer," Long Qihan laughed.

Although he said he was untalented, he didn't truly believe he was untalented.

Qin Jiang nodded slightly, his arm raised in the air, "Please."

"Please!"

Long Qihan said "please," and then attacked Qin Jiang directly, his five fingers grasping in the air; a transparent spherical space appeared at the location where Qin Jiang was.

On the periphery, Long Yuesheng's eyes tightened when he saw this scene; this kind of means of manipulating the air was exactly a power that all Secret Martial Artists would possess after absorbing Secret Martial Source Power.

Being able to manipulate the power of the heavens and earth to a certain extent, if it weren't for power of the same level, one wouldn't even be able to resist!

Qin Jiang's eyebrows twitched slightly, carrying a hint of a smile; he only felt as if he had fallen into a quagmire, and the power consumed to make any movement increased exponentially.

Clenching his fist slightly, his fingers seemed to pull the space, and with a casual wave, the spherical space was thrown away like a wrinkled piece of rag.

Worthy of being a Secret Martial Artist; it seemed he had to be slightly serious.

Opposite, Long Qihan's eyes tightened; he didn't expect Qin Jiang to break his "Palm Heaven and Earth" so easily; worthy of being the heaven-defying talent Third Uncle spoke of!

At the very least, before he became a Secret Martial Artist, he had no way to resist that move just now.

Just as he was filled with admiration, a hurricane suddenly attacked before his eyes; he saw a huge palm pressing toward his face!

Caught off guard, he directly took this palm with his face.

A joke, he was a dignified Secret Martial Artist, his physical body far exceeding that of a True Martial Artist; it was just a palm, watch me...

Slap, Boom—! After a crisp slap, there was a huge booming sound, and even the accumulated dust of years on the metal platform was lifted.

As the dust settled, a bright red five-finger palm print appeared in the center of Long Qihan's face; he stared blankly at his own hands, the burning pain on his face letting him know this was not an illusion.

On the other side, Qin Jiang also awkwardly put his hand behind his back.

He didn't expect Long Qihan to be unable to block even a palm with seventy percent of his strength in his ordinary state.

"Sixth Brother! Don't be careless! Brother Qin previously fought and killed a Weird Eye with his bare hands! If you don't use your full strength, you will definitely be defeated!" Long Yuesheng shouted from outside the field.

He knew Qin Jiang was very strong, but he didn't expect that it was just one move that could injure his Sixth Brother.

Long Qihan was shocked upon hearing this, looking at Qin Jiang in disbelief; a True Martial Artist fought and killed a Weird Eye? A Weird Eye comparable to a Secret Martial Artist?! Without further hesitation, he mobilized the Green Fire power in his body; green flames appeared around his body, and a semi-transparent Green Fire Copper Furnace with a diameter of about one meter floated above his head.

"Brother Qin, just now I was careless, be careful next!"

Having said that, his figure instantly disappeared, and the next moment he suddenly appeared before Qin Jiang's eyes, his speed so fast that even Qin Jiang didn't react in time.

However, his rich combat experience made him instinctively throw a punch.

Pitch-black flames wrapped around his fist, attacking Long Qihan's chin from bottom to top.

Long Qihan didn't show weakness, pressing his elbow down to block this strike; the huge counter-shock force made both of them tremble.

Bang bang bang! The two stood opposite each other, their arms attacking rapidly, fist shadows appearing around them, forming an airtight wall of air.

As the offensive intensified, the fist shadow air wall also gradually expanded, black and green flames splashing, leaving small burn marks on the metal platform.

Finally, after thousands of exchanges, the platform beneath their feet couldn't bear it, cracks appeared, and with a "bang," it exploded.

The two also took the opportunity to separate; Long Qihan hung in mid-air, his palm raised in the air, and the Green Fire Copper Furnace floating above his head suddenly solidified, like a real green copper furnace.

"Suppress the Sea!"

He shouted loudly, and the Green Fire Copper Furnace pressed toward Qin Jiang, compressing the surrounding air along with it, like a piece of the sky crashing down! Qin Jiang stood on the platform, no longer suppressing his power, directly entering the liberation state, his figure instantly rising, turning into a three-zhang giant.

Raising his arm and throwing a punch, his fist was wrapped in black flames, like hundred-refined meteorite iron.

Crack—! The black fist instantly pierced through the Green Fire Copper Furnace, and the green fire fell on his arm, being neutralized by the black fire in a breath. The savage force carried the fragments of the Green Fire Copper Furnace and smashed toward Long Qihan; Long Qihan struggled to resist, green fire surging around his body, but it was of no avail; just the moment of contact, he was smashed away.

Falling heavily to the ground, he stood up, his eyes filled with shock.

What the hell was that terrifying force just now?!

If it weren't for Qin Jiang holding back his strength at the last moment, he would probably be seriously injured by now, right?!

He looked up at Qin Jiang; that three-zhang-tall demon body was like an ancient giant, carrying an aura of wildness.

This was at least an expert comparable to a second-stage Secret Martial Artist!

But... a True Martial Artist, comparable to a second-stage Secret Martial Artist, how was this possible?! Even though he had been defeated with his own hands, he was unwilling to believe he was defeated by a True Martial Artist!

He would rather believe that Qin Jiang had practiced some special Secret Martial Art, and his true realm was no worse than his own!

Outside the field, Long Yuesheng looked at the demon shadow on the platform in a daze; this was Qin Jiang?!

What kind of True Martial Art did he practice? It was actually so terrifying?!

Beside him, Long Ye was also somewhat sluggish; back in Black Mountain City, he had never seen Qin Jiang's posture.

In his life, he had never seen any True Martial Artist who could have such a massive physical body! Even when he was at the Longevity Sect before, he hadn't seen it!

Long Daosheng, sitting on the rock, subconsciously picked up a piece of crispy meat and put it in his mouth to chew.

At his current realm, there were almost no secrets for a True Martial Artist in his eyes.

This was the Lin Family's Golden Image Technique, the Xu Family's Black Fiend Art, the Demon Refining Sect's Ten Demon Sabers?

Each one was a top-tier True Martial Art no worse than the Dragon Phase Tribulation!

Besides this, he actually saw traces of at least ten different True Martial Arts on Qin Jiang's body! And what shocked him the most was that Qin Jiang had perfectly integrated these True Martial Arts into one!

How high must one's martial arts attainments be to reach this step? His heart was shocked, not only because of Qin Jiang's strength, but also because he could actually understand this strength.

There was no trickery or flowery things; it was just displayed so straightforwardly before his eyes, a pure strength without any frills!

He could see all of this, but he could never reach this step! Even, he couldn't imagine how Qin Jiang had reached this step in the first place.

A genius, no! A monster! This was a heaven-defying monster!

He seemed to see the rise of a peerless hegemon!

Within twenty years, or even within ten years, the Copper Bell Sect, and even the Longevity Sect, and the entire Yuan Prefecture would respect Qin Jiang!

"Big Brother, Big Brother."

When he came back to his senses, Long Ye's palm was waving lightly before his eyes.

"Mm? What's wrong?" he asked.

Just after asking, he reacted and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

At this moment, he was incarnated as an old farmer comprehending the heavens and earth; the shock Qin Jiang brought him this time made his state of mind fluctuate, and at least three months of hard work were wasted.

Looking at Qin Jiang, at this time Qin Jiang had already returned to the size of an ordinary person; seeing his gaze cast over, he bowed slightly toward him.

Nodding with satisfaction, he got up from the rock and walked toward Qin Jiang.

As he stepped, a wisp of golden light appeared on his gray cloth clothes, gradually turning into a black-bottomed gold-patterned robe.

"Qin Jiang, are you willing to join the Copper Bell Sect? If you are willing, I will accept a disciple on behalf of the master, and from now on, you will be my Fourth Junior Brother."
