Super Invincible Battleship

Chapter 28: Chapter 22: God-Level Expert

Wang Yong said, “What I just demonstrated is the perfect control over one’s own body. Under my control, whichever muscle I want to move will move. The palm thunder that I just used exploits muscle tissue to create an absolutely airtight environment, and then the palms close together at an extremely fast speed, generating a huge sound to launch a sonic attack on the enemy.”

It was only then that Yan Fei understood the principle behind Wang Yong’s palm thunder attack.

Wang Yong continued, “When I used the palm thunder to attack that South Korean old man, if he had also been able to perfectly control his own body, then he could have controlled his ear muscles to droop and block his ears the moment I attacked. That way he would have been uninjured. So even though that old man seemed very strong, able to control his muscles to swell and deform in an instant, he actually has not even reached the Acquired Peak yet.”

Yan Fei suddenly felt enlightened, having never imagined that the human body could be utilized in such a way, nor that perfect control over it could result in such formidable combat power.

Wang Yong went on to say, “In the Acquired Realm, strength can vary greatly depending on the physical condition of each person. The strongest at the Acquired Peak and the weakest at the Acquired Peak can have a strength difference of at least twenty to thirty times. So you should not judge a person’s strength by the level of their realm, otherwise, you’ll suffer a great loss.”

Realizing that these words were Wang Yong’s instruction to him, Yan Fei nodded, indicating that he understood.

Wang Yong said, “After the Acquired Realm, comes the Innate Realm. The Innate Realm may sound mysterious, but it’s actually very simple. It’s about being able to call upon the entire body’s strength and focus it at one point to exert massive destructive power.”

Seeing that Yan Fei looked puzzled, Wang Yong pointed to the force tester next to him and said, “Hit it with all your strength.”

Yan Fei stepped forward, took a stance, his arm contracted, and then he threw a heavy punch at the force tester. There was a loud “bang,” and the force displayed on the tester was 1560 kilograms. Yan Fei’s body, enhanced fourfold, now possessed tremendous strength, even surpassing that of a super heavyweight boxing champion.

Wang Yong glanced at the number displayed on the force tester but showed no surprise. He asked, “Why did you assume a stance and even contract your arm when you tested just now?”

Yan Fei replied, “Assuming a stance is for coordinating the full strength of the body, and contracting the arm is for accumulating power.”

Wang Yong stepped forward, his fingertips lightly touching the force tester, and asked, “How much strength do you think I can generate if I attack like this?”

After thinking for a moment, Yan Fei answered, “Probably not much, maybe not even one-tenth of your strength.”

Wang Yong smiled and said, “Then watch closely.”

Yan Fei focused his attention and saw Wang Yong’s fingertips lightly touch the force tester. Then there was a loud “bang,” and the force tester was actually broken in two. The upper half flew off and hit the wall, shattering to pieces.

Yan Fei was greatly shocked. Wang Yong hadn’t assumed any stance or accumulated any power, yet with just a light touch, it produced such immense force. How could this be?

Wang Yong retracted his finger and said, “Do you think that my strength is so great that even one-tenth of it could produce such an effect?”

Yan Fei nodded repeatedly. Aside from this reason, he couldn’t explain what had just happened.

Wang Yong said, “What if I told you that the strike just now was with my full strength, would you believe it?”

Yan Fei said with confusion, “You only lightly touched it, how could that possibly be a full-force strike?”

Wang Yong explained, “This is the marvel of the Innate Realm. Once we have perfect control over our bodies, we start to connect internal strength into one stream, able to deliver a full-force strike under any circumstances. That is the Innate Realm. While you can also mobilize the strength of other parts of your body when you attack, you need to assume a proper stance to do so, and the strength you can summon is not much. To give you an example, in your last strike, you did not utilize the strength of your tongue and ears, but in my strike, I used all the strength I could, including that of my tongue and ears. So when you encounter a real Innate Expert in the future, you must be very careful. With just a light touch, they might possess the force of a thousand pounds.”

Only then did Yan Fei understand the distinction between the Innate and Acquired Realms. It’s about whether or not one can twist the body’s strength into a single force. If he truly encountered an Innate Expert, he would have to be especially careful, as a careless move could lead to a significant setback.

Wang Yong said, “The moment you start integrating the body’s strength, you’ve entered the Innate Realm. And as you progress with integrating that strength, you reach different levels of the Innate Realm. Once you can focus the entire body’s strength at one point, you have reached the peak of the Innate Realm.”

Yan Fei suddenly understood. When Wang Yong said that a light touch represented all his strength, it meant that Wang Yong had at least reached the peak of the Innate Realm. He then asked, “What comes after the Innate Realm?”

Wang Yong answered, “After the Innate Realm, comes the Divine Realm.”

Yan Fei said, “The Divine Realm! Just the name of this realm sounds incredibly awesome. Does it have any special features?”

Wang Yong sighed, “I’ve only heard about the Divine Realm from my master, I’ve never experienced it myself. Although I’ve reached the Innate Peak for quite some time, I am not in the Divine Realm, so I’m not clear on what abilities it entails.”

Yan Fei thought Wang Yong was so formidable that he would have already been in the Divine Realm; he hadn’t expected that Wang Yong had yet to reach that stage. Just how powerful could the Divine Realm be?

Wang Yong said, “Since ancient times, it has been said that those in the Divine Realm are unfathomable, even to gods and ghosts. Their use of the body is incredible. They are rumored to be able to harness the Mysterious Energy between Heaven and Earth, making every move powerful with an array of amazing abilities. That’s why some people refer to them as God-Level Experts.”

Yan Fei, imagining the formidable power of God-Level Experts, felt a longing and only after a while did he ask, “Are there many God-Level Experts in this world?”

Wang Yong shook his head, “The emergence of each God-Level Expert is through countless hardships and trials; they are extremely rare. In my lifetime, I have not even met one, so I can’t draw on their experiences to break through to the Divine Realm. I’m not even sure if God-Level Experts exist in this world.”

Yan Fei asked doubtfully, “Is it really so difficult for God-Level Experts to appear?”

Wang Yong sighed, “It’s truly difficult for God-Level Experts to emerge. Even throughout the entire history of humanity, they have been scarce. To my knowledge, only a few like Buddhism’s Sakyamuni and Taoism’s Zhang Sanfeng are truly God-Level Experts.”

Yan Fei was astounded, having not anticipated that God-Level Experts were so rare, with so few appearing throughout human history.

After Wang Yong finished explaining the Divine Realm to Yan Fei, he quickly thought of his own inability to find the opportunity for a breakthrough, and his mood became somewhat downcast. He waved his hand, “You go back first, I want some time alone.”

Seeing Wang Yong in low spirits, Yan Fei immediately took his leave. As he was about to step out of the training room, Wang Yong added, “Kung Fu itself has no distinction of high or low; what suits you is the best. The Kung Fu routines I’ve taught you are only the basics, enough for a starting point. Only by exploring and finding the Kung Fu that suits you can you possibly break through to the Divine Realm. This is also why I only teach you routines.”

Yan Fei nodded, acknowledging the lesson he had learned. With all that had happened today, he needed to go back and sort things out.

Unexpectedly, when Yan Fei arrived at the training center the next day, Wang Yong had disappeared without a trace, and even the person in charge of the fitness center had no idea where he had gone. This left Yan Fei with immense regret. He had just stepped into the halls of Kung Fu and was looking for a guide when Wang Yong vanished.

Yan Fei’s fellow students, who were excited about learning Wang Yong’s Kung Fu, also found themselves disappointed by his disappearance. Those who had witnessed the wonders of Kung Fu and wanted to switch from Taekwondo and karate were equally disappointed.

The fitness center had no choice but to refund the tuition fees paid by everyone and dissolve the Kung Fu training program.

Left without options, Yan Fei could only return home to practice on his own. With Wang Yong’s reminder, he practiced the taught routines even more diligently, hoping to find the Kung Fu that was right for him.

For the next ten days or so, all was calm, and nothing unexpected occurred.

Yan Fei continued practicing the Kung Fu routines. Meeting Wang Yong made him realize that aside from mortals, the world was full of extraordinary individuals. With his strength not even reaching the Acquired Peak, he could easily be instantly killed if he encountered a real Expert. Moreover, after consecutively killing two Experts from the Mysterious Organization and disrupting the promotion of Taekwondo, he knew he had become involved in the disputes of the Jianghu, whether he liked it or not. The stronger he became, the more hope he had for survival in the future.

Likewise, Yan Fei didn’t send the Drone out again. Since the Drone had appeared near Zhang Baocheng’s villa twice in a row, it had certainly attracted the attention of those with intentions. If exposed, the consequences would be unimaginable. Hence, the plan to upgrade the Drone was also put on hold by Yan Fei. His Drone’s current Merit points were a mere 2, a long way off from the 1000 needed for an upgrade.

Although Yan Fei was still living in the old house, he would be moving away in no more than a month when the area would be demolished. During this period, he saw the various dramas played out by his neighbors over relocation compensation; they would stop at nothing to get more money, staging one human comedy and tragedy after another.

Yan Fei didn’t mock them, but he felt sad. It was only because he was fortunate to have an inheritance from his parents that he had solved his financial problems early. Otherwise, he might not have been much better off than them.

It was only yesterday that I learned about the concept of book lists on Starting Point. I studied advertising methods on the internet and chose to place ads on Wolf’s book list first. Never did I expect to see Wolf himself come to appreciate my book this evening, making me feel incredibly honored. The only thing I can do is to create better works to thank everyone.

The past few chapters were mainly meant to introduce the background and showcase the worldview, and I didn’t expect some people to dislike it. However, from today onwards, the plot returns to the science fiction track, with the Drone making its dazzling entry and starting its ferocious upgrade, and the protagonist is about to begin his wondrous journey!
