Martial Transcendence

In the middle of the sky.

An eagle was flying. Elder Yue, the sect master and Du Chan were sitting on it.

Elder Yue sat in a lotus position while closing his eyes. Sect master and Du Chan were simply chatting.

"Your attire is really good. Did you buy it from that famous shop...what was it named?" Sect master said.

Du Chan was wearing a full black jacket and it was very luxurious.

"Heavenly King's Customs" Du Chan said.

"Haha what a bold name" the sect master laughed.

Du Chan smiled. He told the owner of the shop that it sounded arrogant but he said:

"Of course it should be arrogant. We are the best clothes' sellers in the town and the surrounding villages" so he left it like that. The clothes shop was very famous for its luxury and weird dresses.

"Umm, it will take 3 hours to reach the king's place" the sect master said with a sign. And Du Chan was sitting silently. Seeing him silent, the sect master said:

"Du Chan...You have been living peacefully and cultivated for the past 6 years. But from now on, there will be no time to even cultivate. You will see how the world works so be prepared to face everything"

"Hmm, okay" Du Chan nodded sincerely

"You're going to meet the geniuses of this kingdom. There will be many sects and families present and everyone will bring their geniuses today to get the king's attention. And you're going to face them" the sect master said while smiling.

"Why do I need to face them?" Du Chan was confused as to why he needed to fight them.

Sect master gave a weird smile and said:

"How do you think they will grab the king's attention? They will have a small battle between themselves and show-off in front of the king"

"Ohh. Does the king approve of the fights during his birthday celebrations? Wouldn't that be too disruptive?" Du Chan asked.

"Hahaha. The king loves to fight and enjoys watching them more. So he will not say no even if you wanted a battle to the death" sect master said

"So I need to fight them and prove myself" Du Chan said.

"Yes, fight them as much as you want….wait you don't have any fighting experience right?" The Sect master said worriedly.

'Lol. I killed nine people in this world and I was one of the strongest Street Fighters in my country' Du Chan laughed inside of himself but his expression didn't change.

"Hmm, that's a problem, everyone at the feast have their martial skills. If you fight them, you may lose to even the first stage of Qi Condensation lads. It is because techniques are essential to properly use Qi. You may have good control over Qi but it won't help you in combat! You need a martial arts skill!" Elder Yue opened his eyes and said.

Du Chan was silent. He didn't know what to say. Sect master was silent too.

"I know some common techniques which you can learn and use them" Elder Yue said and stood up

"This is called *Iron fist* you can't use qi with this technique. It is only used with pure body strength" Elder Yue punched in the air with his right hand.

BOOM!

It was like he punched a wall but it was in mid-air.

"Here, the second one *Iron palm*. You can use it with both body strength and with Qi. But it takes some practice to use with qi" after he said that, he pushed his palm in the air to show Du Chan.

BOOM!

Again, it was like he struck a wall but it was in the air.

'Why is it like that? There is no wall or any solid object where he punched. Then where does the sound come from?' Du Chan thought.

"Punching in the air causes the muscles to release force which clashes with the air and forms the loud sound you heard" Elder Yue explained.

Du Chan nodded, henderstood now.

"Then practice it and we will reach the king's place in 3 hours. You have three hours of time to practice both of them" Elder Yue said.

"Okay"

Du Chan was excited to learn that. Punching in the air, that sounded cool!

He stood up and started practicing the *iron fist*. When he first tried it, it was the same as a normal punch. But when he thought about the muscle forces and focused all on the fist, he punched…

BOOM!

This was similar to that of Elder Yue, but the punch was definitely incomparable.

"Haha, you already discovered it" sect master laughed.

"Your comprehension speed really amazes me" Elder Yue said.

After trying the *Iron palm* for sometimes he mastered it in no time. They continued their journey while Du Chan practiced.

3 hours passed by very fast.

There was a huge and stunning palace and the sky on top of it was filled with many flying beasts. That was where the king lived and they came here to celebrate the king's 100th birthday and the princess' breakthrough to the Blood Condensation realm at only 18 years old.

Elder Yue, Sect master and Du Chan landed in front of the palace. When the surrounding people saw them, they bowed and moved aside from their path.

When they reached near the palace, a white bird landed and the temperature dropped with it. It became very cold and a lady came down from the top of that bird. That bird looked like a mixed breed of an owl and a sparrow. Its whole body was filled with white feathers like an owl's and its face was like that of a sparrow.

Du Chan looked at it weirdly as he had never seen any beast like that before. But when he looked at the lady who came down from the top of that it, he was shocked. She was extremely gorgeous. This was the first time he saw a beautiful lady, even though Gu Auntie was beautiful herself, she couldn't compare to her.

Elder Yue stopped walking and looked at her and smiled. He didn't even greeted her and continued on with his walk.

Du Chan was staring at her without even a wink. Sect master tapped on his head.

"Ouch" he cried. It was painful, so he came back to reality.

"She is the elder of Frozen Ice Valley and sister of the Ice Fairy. Don't look at her too much, if she notices, it may bring trouble on us" sect master said

"Okay..." Du Chan looked at her for the last time and followed them.

The Elder of Frozen Ice Valley saw the Elder Yue and the sect master walking even after seeing her so she got a little irritated. But she didn't care about them and looked at Du Chan. Her eyes lit up. A smile appeared on her ice-cold face which was covered with a white silk veil and started walking into the palace.

Du Chan and the sect master walked behind Elder Yue. Du Chan asked the sect master in the meantime:

"Sect master, what is Frozen Ice Valley? And Ice Fairy!"

Sect master looked at him and said:

"Frozen Ice Valley is a sect which is very powerful. It is also one of the strongest sects in Sky Dragon Continent. As for Ice Fairy...she is the sect leader of this sect.

She has publicly acknowledged Sky Dragon Continent's number one beauty and also her generation's unrivalled number one expert. She reached the Xiantian realm at the age of 30. She attracted the admiration and love of many famous figures in Sky Dragon Continent and other Continents and the lady we saw is her only sister."

Du Chan was surprised.

"And yeah. The Frozen Ice Valley doesn't take male disciples. They only accept females and have many strict rules. If you were to meet any disciples from that sect, be respectful. Even though they might not be as strong as the Extreme Martial sect but they have too many followers " the sect master added.

"Why don't they take male disciples?" Du Chan asked. He could understand why they had many followers.

"Because the cultivation technique isn't suitable for men to cultivate. I only heard this, no one knows why they don't have male disciples" sect master said.

"..." Du Chan was silent. Suddenly the temperature started to change this time it became too hot. And a bird….no that's….a fucking lion with wings… It was a very huge lion...its body skin was red and fire was burning in its mouth. Du Chan was totally stunned after seeing that beast. A guy jumped off it. He looked like a middle-aged man with a handsome face and was wearing a big sword on his back. When Elder Yue saw him, he nodded to him and that guy nodded back with a smile and nodded at both sect master and Elder of Frozen Ice Valley. He totally ignored Du Chan. And started walking to the palace.

"Sect master, who is he? Is he also from a powerful sect?" Du Chan asked.

"Yes, that sect is known for violence. They don't care about anything and their enemy vanishes without knowing. So no one wants those idiots as enemies. Their brains are filled with muscles and that sect name is the Ten thousand Sword sect. It is also a very powerful sect or you can say equal to Extreme Martial sect. Every person in that sect is strong " the sect master said with a very low voice. Even Du Chan who was beside him could barely hear.

After listening to the sect master, Du Chan nodded and asked:

"Why are the big figures coming for a birthday party?"

"Because of the king. He is well known in the whole Sky Dragon continent. He is very powerful and ruthless. Everyone calls him "Butcher King". He kills his enemies like ants and cares very much about his people. And he also has a Royal bloodline, which makes him superior to, so all sects so families respect him" sect master explained.

"Hmm okay I understand now" Du Chan said

Entering the huge palace, the door was big and luxurious. After entering the palace, they could see the big hall filled with round tables and chairs. There was a single throne in the last of the hall.

Elder Yue, sect master and Du Chan went straight to the front right corner of the table in the hall and sat there. Everyone started to enter. So many sects and families, came with their geniuses and took a table for themselves. The hall was filled with people.

Suddenly a loud announcement came from the entrance.

"THE KING IS COMING!"

Everyone stood up, even the Elders stood too.. A middle-aged person was walking from the entrance and there was pin-drop silence where only his footsteps were echoing through the whole hall….
