Daily Evolution from Mastering Tai Chi-Chapter 65: Chopping Through Four Bricks at Once

Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Chopping Through Four Bricks at Once

One hour later.

Wang Ye, covered in bruises and bleeding marks from being hit by sticks and hammers,

stepped into a bathtub filled with dark red medicinal liquid.

Hiss!!

The wounds were instantly soaked by the stimulating medicinal liquid, bringing a pain akin to being torn apart.

Wang Ye endured the intense pain and soaked in the bathtub for about five minutes, slowly adapting to the stimulation, and began to enjoy the subtle tingling sensation all over his body.

This tingling sensation was a sign that his injuries were starting to heal.

The deeper the injuries spread, the better the effect of excessive recovery on his body would be.

Breaking first and then establishing, only then can one grow stronger.

The stronger the stimulation from this medicinal bath, the better the recovery effect, and the higher the skill level it could bring. If he didn’t feel any stinging when he first stepped into the bathtub, he would instead think he didn’t train hard enough earlier.

[You have taken a medicinal bath, the injured areas have been stimulated, increasing Golden Bell Shield skill level by 5.0%.]

Half an hour later.

Wang Ye walked out of the now-cool medicinal liquid.

He wiped off the remaining dark red liquid from his body with a towel.

Wang Ye clenched his fist and pounded his chest.

A noticeable rebound force fed back to his fist bones, making his arm feel a bit weak. It was like hitting a cushion with a hammer, where the expected impact force was dispersed by eighty to ninety percent.

Immediately, Wang Ye clenched his fist again and struck at the wall in front of him.

Thud!

A dull sound spread, white dust fell from the peak of his fist, Wang Ye exhaled and blew the white dust off his fist peak, but found that his skin was unscathed.

He used half his strength on this punch, you know.

In the past, striking this way would have at least broken his skin and drawn some blood, but now his skin only bore some white marks, showing how significantly his skin’s toughness had improved.

"Not bad, the increase in resilience also enhanced my offensive capability." Wang Ye nodded in satisfaction.

Enhancing defense power to a level where he could freely attack was also a means to enhance offensive power.

It’s like wearing a pair of finger tigers, allowing him to pound the opponent fearlessly.

This kind of Horizontal Training Skill to increase defense power, coupled with Wang Ye’s Tai Chi skill, can be said to be a perfect match.

Although Wang Ye currently has little actual combat experience. Just the foundation of these skills alone has given him enough sense of security. With these skills as a means of self-defense, he is confident in exerting extraordinary combat ability when facing formidable enemies.

After training in the two skills.

Wang Ye sat on the sofa and watched some videos for a while.

After an hour of spacing out, he stood up again, grabbed his Hidden Weapons Pouch, and headed out to the usual place at the abandoned building to train his Throwing Skill.

Wang Ye planned to attempt breaking bricks again today.

Although he was already capable of breaking bricks with his bare hands ten days ago, today he wanted to try breaking not just one brick, but two or even three bricks at once!

Wang Ye used the Rapid Step Skill, walked along the road for some time.

Casually picked up a few red bricks with some moss on them from the roadside and stuffed them into the Hidden Weapons Pouch.

Anyway, the Hidden Weapons Pouch was not initially filled with clean stuff.

Putting some dirty things like flowers, grass, broken stones, and soil wouldn’t be disgraceful either.

After arriving at the abandoned building, Wang Ye used his hearing to confirm that there was no one around.

Then he took out a red brick from the Hidden Weapons Pouch and placed it flat on the ground. There were no protrusions or depressions on this ground, almost like a flat concrete surface, offering no leverage.

Attempting to break a brick on such a flat surface couldn’t be achieved by brute force alone.

He needed a certain level of Martial Arts foundation to release Penetrating Force to barely smash it.

This Penetrating Force is similar to Inner Force, Inner Strength, relying on the technique of force emission that explodes from within. It sounds profound, but it is essentially focusing force to erupt at a point, imagining the fist turning into a needle to inflict greater damage.

"Let’s try the feel with one brick first."

Wang Ye shook his hand, gathered his strength for a moment, then suddenly exerted force with his right hand to smash down.

Boom!

The brick instantly shattered.

It was smashed apart like a block of tofu, without any suspense.

"Easy. Let’s add another one."

Wang Ye took out two more bricks from the pouch, placed them in front of him. He gathered his strength again, and then with a "bang", easily smashed them.

Looking at the shattered bricks in front of him, a hint of amazement appeared in his eyes.

The difficulty of smashing two bricks was slightly easier than he had imagined.

He thought that after smashing these two bricks, his metacarpal bones would feel a bit painful. But after rubbing the base of his palm, he found that only a slight tingling sensation occurred at the spot.

Logically, the thicker the stack of bricks, the harder it is to penetrate these layers with Penetrating Force. Using standard quality red bricks as the benchmark, breaking four bricks at once should be the limit of human performance.

"Let’s try four bricks directly."

Wang Ye steeled himself,

taking out all the remaining bricks from the Hidden Weapons Pouch and neatly stacking them in front of him.

The height of these four bricks stacked was about twenty centimeters,

almost taller than a vertically placed phone.

Looking at this stack of bricks in front of him, Wang Ye couldn’t help but feel a bit apprehensive, "If I really managed to break these four bricks at once, would that still make me human?"

Wang Ye took a few deep breaths on the spot, began intentionally gathering the Qi Sensitivity all over his body to the base of his right palm.

Immediately, his right palm felt as if it was filled with lead, all of a sudden becoming many times heavier, like a heavy iron hammer.

Meanwhile, the bones of his entire right arm became much softer, as if the dozens of centimeters long arm bones broke into hundreds or thousands of pieces, able to move as he wished.

Of course, these were just illusions in Wang Ye’s mind, but such directed illusions can often help the body to unleash more astounding potential.

Wang Ye’s eyes slightly condensed.

Raising his right hand gradually above his head.

Then suddenly chopped down.

The air was sliced with an obvious whooshing sound.

Crack!!!

A terrifying sharp sound exploded, the four bricks were incredibly split apart instantly, and toppled to both sides.

Wang Ye’s face lit up with joy. Before he could start celebrating, he noticed that his palm had been slightly abraded, though it didn’t bleed, there was some stinging sensation.

"Looks like four bricks is my limit for now."

After recording this statistic in his notes, Wang Ye stood up again, unzipped the Hidden Weapons Pouch, and prepared to train the Throwing Skill. He picked up the shattered bricks, broke them down further, and used them as flying rock pieces.

He trained the [Throwing] skill with these fragments for another hour.
