Qing Lin's long-suppressed childish heart suddenly surfaced at some point. Yes, what she was expecting was not the ultimate effect of Li Chonglou's Tai Chi, but after seeing Li Chonglou's extraordinary nature, she actually began to suspect that Li Chonglou was not from Blue Star.
"Perhaps he's an Ultraman from legend? Or a Kryptonian?"
Qing Lin's small mind was filled with bizarre imaginations at this moment. To her disappointment, after Li Chonglou finished the entire set of Tai Chi, no other abnormalities occurred...
Even the white smoke that had been emanating from him slowly dissipated, as if nothing had happened.
However, she didn't know that after Li Chonglou finished his stance, a warm feeling spread through his body, and the injuries he had just sustained seemed to have completely healed in this short period!
Not only that, but even the lingering weakness from his previous forced breakthrough of the curse power had improved considerably!
"When did this set of Tai Chi become so powerful?"
Let alone the souls within his soul bottle, even Li Chonglou himself was amazed. He had merely intended to use Tai Chi to alleviate his injuries, never expecting such an effect!
In that case, wouldn't I be able to fully recover from the previous weakness if I practiced it a couple more times?
At the thought of this, Li Chonglou could no longer contain his excitement and immediately raised his hand again, making a gesture.
However, the next second, his expression suddenly changed, and he immediately stopped.
"What's wrong, Xiao Li?"
"I can't use it anymore..."
Li Chonglou's face was full of surprise, and the people in the soul bottle didn't immediately understand what he meant.
"What do you mean you can't use it?"
"I wanted to perform the second round, but as soon as I used it, I felt pain from within, and I have an intuition that if I force myself to continue, I might suffer direct damage..."
This was very strange. After all, when he was in the arena, Li Chonglou could perform it continuously until his fatigue completely disappeared.
This set of Tai Chi was originally meant to restore physical strength, but now its nature seemed to have changed.
"Xiao Li, you can't have both the bear's paw and the fish. What you've achieved is already very good; at least it's better than simply recovering physical strength."
Elder An suddenly spoke, and his words were met with the approval of others. After all, achieving such good recovery effects by practicing one set was no less than any so-called elixirs.
As for simply restoring physical strength, they didn't think there would be many opportunities for him to continuously practice Tai Chi to recover his stamina, as the situations in the arena were exceptional.
When Li Chonglou heard this, he couldn't help but feel excited. Elder An and the others didn't know that, for Li Chonglou, healing injuries was far more useful than recovering stamina.
This was because the original purpose of "Mai Qian" was to become stronger with each battle, constantly replenishing physical strength during combat. This had created a conflict with Tai Chi. However, now that he knew the nature of Tai Chi had changed, the conflict instantly transformed into complementarity!
Li Chonglou couldn't help but grin, but he didn't forget to ask Elder An.
"Can I proceed with the soul fusion now?"
"There should be no major problem."
Hearing this, Li Chonglou's hanging heart finally settled completely.
Because he couldn't perform soul fusion, he had been anxious to find Yue Hai. Without that fellow around, he truly lacked a sense of security. But now it was different; the mindset of having confidence versus not having confidence was entirely different.
Li Chonglou stretched his body slightly and then walked deeper into the teaching building.
From beginning to end, he didn't notice Qing Lin around the corner. For some reason, Qing Lin didn't come out to stop Li Chonglou. Only after his figure disappeared from her sight again did she murmur.
"Why do I always feel like this Tai Chi is a bit strange? It's different from Grandpa's?"
Qing Lin thought about it and then left the teaching building. Following a small path to its end, Qing Lin found herself in front of an iron net nearly three meters high. Inside the wire mesh, there was clearly a residential area.
Qing Lin came to the iron net and first looked left and right. Seeing no one around, she then pushed off with her right foot, soaring over the iron net like a swallow, circling in the air, and landing as lightly as a butterfly.
If an ordinary person were present at this moment, they would definitely suspect they were seeing a ghost.
A nearly three-meter iron net, leaped over with a light jump. Even the world's high jump champions couldn't achieve this!
Yet, Qing Lin not only accomplished it but did so with ease and elegance, clearly possessing unfathomable strength.
After entering the residential area, Qing Lin seemed to return to her own territory, completely relaxing. She walked briskly in a certain direction.
In the courtyard of a villa, an elder with white hair was wearing a white Tai Chi robe, slowly performing his moves on the grass.
The elder's Tai Chi was steady amidst rapid movements and rapid amidst steadiness, a spectacle to behold. However, when he turned, he saw a face with a slight frown.
"Xiao Qing?"
Recognizing the person, the elder was first surprised, then a little displeased.
"What's with that expression, you brat? Do you think Grandpa's Tai Chi is not good?"
The "brat" he mentioned was naturally Qing Lin, who had just returned home. In fact, she rarely came home. Although she had grown up here since childhood, ever since her martial arts reached a certain level, she spent most of her time in the training room. Her appearance here at this hour was undoubtedly a surprise to the elder.
That's why his first reaction was surprise.
As for the displeasure, it was because the elder was most proud of his Tai Chi throughout his life. In his youth, he couldn't find a Tai Chi opponent anywhere in the country. Even now, the record holder for Tai Chi in the country was still him.
Although it was only in exhibition matches.
So, even though she was his beloved granddaughter, the elder couldn't help but feel displeased when he saw Qing Lin frowning.
Qing Lin didn't hold back and directly stated her doubts, "Grandpa, I feel like what you're doing is problematic."
These words infuriated the elder. After all, he had roamed the martial world for so many years, and while his internal energy and martial arts had been questioned by others, his Tai Chi had never been doubted!
It was considered flawless!
"Did you drink fake wine today, you brat? How dare you come and question Grandpa's Tai Chi?"
Qing Lin shook her head and said earnestly, "I'm serious, Grandpa. Your Tai Chi looks a bit awkward to me now, and it doesn't produce smoke."
"Smoke?"
