Chapter 442

Ancient martial arts leg technique!

A trace of astonishment appeared on Wang Yu's face.

This answer was somewhat beyond his expectations.

"Yes, our Li family's ancient martial arts are famous for leg techniques, and several types of leg skills have been passed down. The most famous is the Blood Shadow Leg, which follows a domineering and rigid path and can train the legs to be as hard as iron.

But there is another less famous 'Afterimage Step', which was originally just a basic technique for the Li family to train leg speed. It can make the figure move rapidly through several fixed footwork patterns, forming blurred afterimages during leaps and shifts to confuse opponents." Li Shiyi replied.

"'Afterimage Step'." Wang Yu muttered twice, revealing a thoughtful expression.

If we talk about techniques that can form afterimages, there are many among the various secret techniques in the Cultivation World, and even the Ape Roar move in the Four Beasts Technique can perform a somersault and produce a series of afterimages.

"However, the previous Afterimage Step could only be used to scare laymen and didn't have much effect in actual combat. But after I replaced my legs with semi-mechanical prosthetic limbs and studied it with several ancient martial arts masters, I have already turned the Afterimage Step into the 'Instant Body Step'.

This improved footwork, through a momentary speed increase of more than a hundred times, plus pauses at precise times and specific positions, can form a true false body in the eyes of ordinary people." Li Shiyi said with a trace of pride.

"That is to say, the figure of Brother Li seen in the lightning earlier was actually just a false body?" With Wang Yu's current knowledge, he naturally understood the meaning of Li Shiyi's words, and his eyes lit up slightly as he asked.

"Yes, because it is a false body, to outsiders, my movements seemed calm and unhurried, but in reality, the true body had already dodged to the side at an extremely fast speed and used the 'Instant Body Step' to condense a new false body. When those lightning bolts hit the original position, they naturally missed one by one, and none hit."

"The above movements seem to be completed at an extreme speed beyond the vision of ordinary people, and utilize the special blind spot of vision. It also requires countless training and exploration to reach my level, making it look as if I can predict the position of lightning attacks and calmly dodge them one by one." Li Shiyi said.

"Tsk tsk, this 'Instant Body Step' sounds very powerful, but it doesn't seem that easy to master. It wouldn't be that until now, only you, Brother Li, can do it, right?" Wang Yu asked after clicking his tongue in wonder.

"Hehe, Number One, you really guessed right. Without installing mechanical prosthetic limbs, relying solely on flesh and blood, it is indeed impossible to practice this footwork. Not to mention that even if the body can meet the standard, this footwork also requires the cooperation of the 'Super Pupil' ability; otherwise, after making an extreme speed move, I'm afraid I wouldn't even know where I would rush to." Li Shiyi admitted.

"Okay, I am very satisfied with Brother Li's answer. Now let's talk about the deal, shall we?

You and the two of them want to get something from me to extend life or restore longevity, right?" Wang Yu seemed very satisfied with Li Shiyi's answer and said with a solemn expression.

"Yes, although the three of us participated in the transformation surgery voluntarily at the beginning, we didn't expect the consequence of a greatly reduced lifespan. If it can be cured, it would naturally be the best."

"The superiors have also sought out the top doctors in the country to help us treat it, but they have no way to deal with this kind of lifespan loss that is close to natural consumption."

"On the contrary, because of our special status, we came into contact with some information about the Cultivation World. It mentioned that the cultivators in this world possess extremely long lifespans, and there are magical spells like those in myths and various spiritual medicines with incredible effects, among which things that can extend life were mentioned." Li Shiyi no longer hid anything and told everything one by one.

"So you want me to help you get related things from the Cultivation World?" Wang Yu replied after a slight contemplation.

"Yes, the medical level of countries like England is not much more advanced than our China, so we can only pin our hopes on the spells and spiritual medicines of the Cultivation World." Li Shiyi admitted.

"Although I don't know how much information you have come into contact with about the Cultivation World, there are a few points I must make clear to you first, and then you can decide whether to do this deal." Wang Yu saw this and said solemnly.

"Number One, please speak." Li Shiyi saw that Wang Yu was so cautious, and the smile on his face couldn't help but fade a little.

"First, in the Cultivation World, anything related to longevity, whether it is spells, secret techniques, or spiritual medicines, is a very rare item. It's just that the former is rarer, and if there is no spiritual energy, even having the cultivation method is useless." Wang Yu said first.

"I also know some information about spiritual energy. I heard that this is the biggest difference between the Cultivation World and our Blue Star." Li Shiyi nodded.

"Yes, so you shouldn't count on the spells and secret techniques of the Cultivation World. Even if I can find them for you, you won't be able to practice them." Wang Yu said.

"So, we can only rely on the spiritual medicines you mentioned." Li Shiyi muttered.

"According to your situation, what you actually need is either a spiritual medicine that can repair the original lifespan or a spiritual medicine that can directly extend longevity. Although the former is also very rare, I have some confidence in finding it. The latter is something that even high-level cultivators pursue and fight for, and it is very difficult to find." Wang Yu said calmly.

"Extending is rarer than repairing. I naturally understand this principle. We don't need to extend our lifespan additionally, as long as we can restore the original lost lifespan." Li Shiyi replied hurriedly after listening.

"But now there are two more problems. One is that my return through time this time was actually an accident, and I am not sure if I can return to the Cultivation World."

"Two is, even if I can return to the Cultivation World and can travel back again, I might not be able to bring things back directly. After all, I am only traveling with my consciousness, not my true body." Wang Yu explained slowly.

Li Shiyi's face turned pale after listening, as if he had been doused with a basin of cold water.

"However..." Wang Yu's voice paused, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face again.

"However what?" Li Shiyi asked hurriedly.

"However, there is a special profession in the Cultivation World called the Pill Master, who can refine various medicines into pills with amazing effects. Although the raw materials they use are mostly spiritual medicines containing spiritual energy, if we can bring the corresponding longevity pill formulas back to Blue Star, with our scientific technology, we might not be able to deduce other medicines with the same effect."

"Even if the pill formulas don't work, there is another type of medicine master among cultivators. They can also use ordinary medicines without spiritual energy to prepare some medicinal liquids and powders with magical effects, many of which also have strong healing abilities. Perhaps some of them can also treat the problem of lifespan loss. I can also think of ways for you in this regard."

Wang Yu said unhurriedly, while a list of medicine master formulas collected in the Cultivation World flashed through his mind. There were indeed many medicines that could be prepared using only ordinary raw materials, and many of them had amazing effects.

Of course, for him, who had trained his flesh in the Cultivation World to be invulnerable to swords and spears, water and fire, these medicines were naturally not worth mentioning, but for ordinary people on Blue Star, they still had significant effects.

As for whether there were really special medicines in these formulas that could repair longevity, he felt that the probability was actually quite high.

As for the mysterious talisman in his divine sense sea, which could store items and travel between the two worlds, he didn't consider telling Li Shiyi at all.

After all, if he could continue to travel back to the Cultivation World, this would become his greatest reliance for traveling between the two worlds.

"Pill formulas, medicine formulas! Okay, as long as there is a possibility of restoring our lifespan, we are willing to try. After all, with our current situation, the worst case is just maintaining the status quo." Li Shiyi replied with a wry smile after his face changed several times.

"Since Brother Li feels that this deal can really be done, then I want to talk about the reward." Wang Yu said with a smile upon hearing this.
