Under one person: I, Zhang Zhiwei, the arrogant Zhang.

Chapter 550: Confident Lü Ci, Senior Brother Zhang, Let Me Test You

Lu Ci's words made Lu Jin look very unhappy. He looked at the long gully on the ground with great solemnity. With Lu Ci's fist as the center, the shock wave left a mess wherever it passed, and even the surrounding land and vegetation were shattered.

This kind of punching power is beyond his reach now. Although the third level of Reverse Rebirth is powerful, it is more of a blessing to oneself, with minimal interference from the outside world. Even his master only possessed the ability to open and close his fists and penetrate a hundred meters after entering the third level.

He has only just reached the second level, and is still a long way from his master's realm. He dare not even think about such destructive power.

Can I stop it? Lu Jin asked himself.

Immediately, he recalled the scene in the Magic City when he was accidentally injured by Lu Ci and was nearly killed by one blow.

At that time, Lu Ci's move was still a half-finished product, but it was able to break through Ni Sheng's body protection and seriously injure him. Now, whether it is the speed of launching, or the accuracy and power, it has been greatly improved...

Although I have made great progress, one is a destruction of external objects, and the other is a blessing to oneself. How can the two be equated?

It can’t be stopped, it can’t be stopped at all, Lu Jin came to the conclusion.

But Lao Lu is a respectable man, and he has never been inferior to others in his life. How can he just admit it like that? If he admits it, will he be able to hold his head up high in the future?

Lu Jin's eyes narrowed, and he stiffened his neck and said:
"You dog hedgehog, why are you pretending? Why should I take it? I'm not a meat target. If you dare, why don't you fight me in close combat?"

Lu Ci grinned and smiled excitedly:

"I knew you wouldn't accept it, so let's fight in close combat. Come on, I won't use that move just now, let's fight for three hundred rounds!"

Zhang Zhiwei folded his hands and watched with interest.

In his opinion, judging from the melee combat alone, even if Lu Jin activated the Reverse Life, it would be difficult to defeat Lu Ci.

The higher the level of achievement, the higher the limit. Although Lu Ci has not systematically strengthened his muscles, bones and skin, he has comprehended the tiger and leopard thunder sounds, and the thunder sounds in his body have been generated to bless himself, which means he has stepped into the threshold of becoming a martial arts master.

In this case, the melee combat capability will be greatly enhanced. Although the defense ability still cannot catch up with the reverse state, it has the capital to fight against it.

After all, even if one is a martial arts master, apart from being good at horizontal training, who would bother to take the opponent's moves head-on!

"Hit me if you want. Am I afraid of you?"

At this critical juncture, Lu Jin cannot afford to be timid. The two of them get ready and the battle is about to break out.

In the past, Zhang Zhiwei would give each side a slap to pull the two sides apart.

But this time, he wanted to see the results of Lu Ci's enlightenment, so he did not stop him.

The two men fought each other. Lu Ci's muscles and bones vibrated, and when he raised his hands and feet, there were thunderous sounds. The air was ringing, and his whole body was filled with a suffocating and terrifying feeling.

Lu Jin has activated the Reverse Life Technique, his body wrapped in white light. He forcibly breaks through the strong wind surrounding Lu Ci, and when the opportunity arises, he rushes straight in and strikes Lu Ci's center with one palm.

In the past, facing such a direct attack from Lu Jin, Lu Ci would most likely dodge it and then regain the upper hand by relying on the strange and changeable power of Ruyi Jin.

But now, with an arrogant smile on his face, Lu Ci took a step forward, not retreating but advancing, raising his palm to meet the attack.

The two sides collided hard, and strong winds surged. Lu Ci's fists were packed with shocking force, and every time he attacked, he brought with him a force that shook all directions. Although it was only an attack on one point, it covered Lu Jin from all directions.

This made Lu Jin feel very constrained, because the air on all sides was vibrating, and every move he made would be rebounded by the air, as if he was being rejected by this world.

However, this influence was not strong for him who had started the reverse life and possessed the great power of dragon and tiger.

Lu Jin took a deep breath, and the Qi waves spread out like ripples with him as the center.

Then, he launched a torrential attack, using the reverse-life state to greatly enhance his body, and displayed the Tai Chi hard and round power taught by Zhang Zhiwei.

Lu Jin's attack instantly improved by several levels. Each punch had considerable penetrating power, just like a powerful arrow shot by an ancient archer who could draw a bow with a force of 100 stones.

The two men clashed fiercely, with loud collisions, just like two dragons, one white and one purple, fighting each other. After each collision, an aftermath like fireworks blooming would bloom in the air.

The two seemed to be evenly matched, but Zhang Zhiwei saw clearly that Lu Ci was using his own weakness to attack Lu Jin's strength, and after this fight, Lu Jin was already completely defeated.

Sure enough, not long after, the Qi that Lu Jin had raised stopped, and he immediately fell into a slump. The white light around him was touched by the purple shock wave from Lu Ci's fist, and was all shattered by it.

Lu Ci seized the opportunity and slapped Lu Jin on the chest. The purple energy wave knocked Lu Jin over and sent him flying.

Just as he was about to fall to the ground in a mess, Lu Jin suddenly turned around in the air, flew backwards like a nimble kite, and landed gracefully on a tree by the roadside, with his back to Lu Ci and Zhang Zhiwei.

"Hedgehog, your breakthrough isn't that great!"

Lu Jin said it calmly, but what no one saw was that a palm print deep enough to see the bone was left on his chest. The wound was bloody and surrounded by purple energy.

If an ordinary person suffered this kind of injury, he would probably be in critical condition. However, Lu Jin is now in a state of reverse rebirth and is not in danger of life. He only needs to practice mystical skills to remove the Qi left by Lu Ci in the wound, and then transform the Qi into flesh and blood to recover.

However, using Reverse Rebirth to recover from injuries consumes a lot of true Qi. Adding to the previous fight, there is not much Qi left in Lu Jin's body.

After he recovered from his injuries, he suddenly felt dizzy. Lu Jin thought to himself that something was wrong, and before he could move, everything went black.

"I say, Lao Lu, stop talking... talking..."

Before Lu Ci could utter the word "hard", he saw Lu Jin fall headfirst from the tree and lost consciousness.

Lu Ci: “…………”

Zhang Zhiwei: "…………"

"Lao Lu!"

"Lao Lu!"

The two of them hurried over and looked at the unconscious Lu Jin. Zhang Zhiwei said unhappily:
"Hedgehog, you really didn't hold back, you bastard!"

"How can that be possible, Senior Brother Zhang? We are equally matched. If I hold back, I will be the one who gets beaten away. Besides, I haven't used my ultimate move this time. Old Lu, wake up! Stop pretending to be dead!"

Lu Ci grabbed Lu Jin's shoulders with both hands and shook him hard. He and Lu Jin had fought more than a hundred matches, big and small, but this was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

"Stop shaking it. If you keep shaking it, even nothing will happen!"

Zhang Zhiwei gave Lu Ci a slap and told him to go aside. Then he flicked his finger and a stream of Qi shot out, connecting to Lu Jin's wrist and penetrating into his body.

Lu Ci's Ruyi Jin carries with it a change in the shock force. It doesn't seem to be a big problem, but it might injure the internal organs. It's better to check it out.

"How is it?" Lu Ci asked, covering his head and ignoring the pain.

"It's not a big problem, it's just over-consumption, the Qi has been exhausted. It will be fine after practicing for a while!" After checking and making sure that there was no problem, Zhang Zhiwei repaired some minor injuries in Lu Jin's body when he took back the Qi.

But Lu Jin still didn't wake up, which made Zhang Zhiwei wonder, his internal energy was exhausted, and he would be weak for a while at most, why was he still unconscious? Could it be that he fell undignifiedly before and was a little afraid to face it?
"Fuck, it turns out that everything is fine. Old Lu is such a hypocrite. He is pretending to be serious even though he is not good enough. He scared me!"

Lu Ci breathed a sigh of relief, but when he touched the big bump on his head, he was furious.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, so he hit Lu Jin on the forehead three times, all at the same spot, leaving three large bumps that overlapped one another.

Zhang Zhiwei's eyes twitched slightly when he saw this, and he thought that the culprit was Lu Ci.

These three big lumps appeared, and Lu Jin, who had been pretending to be unconscious for the sake of dignity, could no longer pretend. He held his head and screamed, twisting on the ground like a maggot in pain.

“Fuck fuck fuck, you bastard, you hedgehog, you are here to play tricks on me. I am not done with you. This time it’s because I didn’t have enough internal energy and was careless. Will you try again when I am fully empowered?!”

Lu Jin was quite unconvinced. If he had lost to someone else, he could have openly said that he was inferior to him, but he couldn't do that since he lost to Lu Ci!
Lu Ci looked at Lu Jin's miserable condition, and the pain on his head was gone. He smiled:

"No matter how you try, the result will be the same. You have to practice more. Once Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound is mastered, my strength is far beyond what it used to be. Not to mention you, even Senior Brother Zhang's junior brother, that big-eared guy, can't be my opponent!"

"So confident?" Zhang Zhiwei laughed.

Lu Ci held his head high and said, "Of course!"

Immediately, he looked at Zhang Zhiwei, eager to try:
"Brother Zhang, I didn't have enough fun with Old Lu just now, and he didn't let me use my special moves. How about... we try it together?"

He and Zhang Zhiwei had only had one serious sparring match, which was at the Lu family compound.

Later, he went to Mount Longhu and wanted to find Zhang Zhiwei to compete with him. Zhang Zhiwei did not take action himself, but casually allocated a group of heavenly soldiers to Tian Jinzhong, and defeated him easily. After that, he realized the gap and dared only ask for advice, not for guidance.

But now, when the Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound was completed, the changes of the Shock Force and the Collapse Force were integrated into the Ruyi Force. He was able to imitate natural disasters with the Ruyi Force. This gave him great confidence. The sky cleared, the rain stopped, and he felt that he was able to do it again.

"Just give it a try!" Zhang Zhiwei didn't want to refute his younger brother's interest, and rolled up his sleeves, "You go first!"

"Senior Brother Zhang, I just finished fighting with Lao Lu, and I need to recuperate!" Lu Ci said.

"Let you regulate your breathing!" Zhang Zhiwei nodded.

Lu Ci quickly meditated to recover.

Lu Jin also took the time to recover.

Zhang Zhiwei was not in a hurry either. He put down his rolled-up sleeves, closed his eyes and tempered his life.

After about an hour, Lu Ci opened his eyes, stood up and said, "Brother Zhang, I'm recovered. We can spar now!"

Zhang Zhiwei stood up, rolled up his sleeves slowly, and said as he rolled them up: "You take action!"

"Then I'm not welcome!"

A defiant smile appeared on Lu Ci's face and he instantly mobilized all his strength. Then a series of low thunders exploded from Lu Ci's body.

One of the sounds was particularly loud, like someone beating a drum. It was the sound of a beating heart.

The sound was so loud that it stood out among the thunder. Even Lu Jin, who was far away, could hear it clearly and couldn't help but wonder:

"The heart is beating so violently, how much blood supply does it have? The hedgehog has broken through the Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound, is the improvement so great?"

"There's no need to push yourself so hard, be careful or you might explode!" Zhang Zhiwei warned.

"With Senior Brother Zhang here, I'm not afraid of exploding!"

Lu Ci roared, and the power gathered in his hands, forming a purple qi ball. He punched out, thunder shook, and where the fist landed, the surrounding air trembled and tore white marks, forming spider-web-like cracks.

Immediately afterwards, cracks spread rapidly towards Zhang Zhiwei. It was the shock wave transformed from Ruyi Jin that was crushing him.

This move was so brutal and domineering that even Lu Jin, who was far away, felt the air shaking as if there was an earthquake. In a trance, it really gave people a feeling of a natural disaster.

But... Lu Jin looked at Zhang Zhiwei. If the hedgehog's move was a little bit like an earthquake, then Senior Brother Zhang was the embodiment of a natural disaster, a human-shaped natural disaster. What would the scene be like when the two collided?
Lu Jin put aside all distractions and looked at it intently, only to see that the crack had extended in front of Zhang Zhiwei.

Just as he was about to be submerged, the air around Zhang Zhiwei whistled and gathered into a circle, forming a Tai Chi, and he stood in the middle of the Tai Chi's yin and yang.

Lu Ci used the tiger and leopard thunder sound to add the shock force to the Ruyi force. It seemed bluffing, but in the final analysis it was still a kind of force.

Naturally, Zhang Zhiwei did not use the Golden Light Curse to bully his younger brother, so he used Tai Chi power, which also has the same force, to resolve it.

The two forces collided, but there was no earth-shattering collision. Instead, the surging cracks suddenly stopped, and then collapsed in an instant, silently.

From beginning to end, Zhang Zhiwei stood in the same place without even raising his eyelids, and the unique move that Lu Ci was proud of was thus dissolved.

This made Lu Jin, who was standing by, even feel that Lu Ci did not throw a punch, but the messy ground in front of Zhang Zhiwei told him clearly that everything was true.

"It's the hedgehog's Tai La..." Lu Jin thought of his previous personal experience and quickly changed his words: "No, it's Senior Brother Zhang who is too strong. He has simply brought Tai Chi power to a level that ordinary people can hardly imagine."

Faced with this situation, Lu Ci's eyes focused, and he took a step forward. The ground under his feet cracked inch by inch. He rushed in front of Zhang Zhiwei, waving his cracked purple fist and launched a fiery attack on Zhang Zhiwei.

But no matter how fiercely Lu Ci attacked, they were all neutralized by Zhang Zhiwei's Tai Chi power. It was like hitting cotton and could not touch his body at all.

Having tried his best but unable to hurt Zhang Zhiwei at all, Lu Ci is now feeling conflicted. While frustrated, he also feels that it is natural and that this is how his respected senior brother Zhang should behave.

He stopped attacking and panted heavily, "Brother Zhang, please don't be reluctant. Come, let me see your Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound. This is not the one you just practiced, but the real Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound!"

"Since you want it, I'll satisfy you!"

Zhang Zhiwei's tiger body shook, and a roar like a tiger roaring in the mountains came from inside his body. The sound was so loud that it shocked people for miles. At the same time, the bones in his body were also vibrating, making a thunderous sound.

If we compare Lü Ci's Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound with Zhang Zhiwei's, one is like beating a drum, while the other is like a real thunder explosion. The difference between the two is more than a hundred times.

As soon as the thunder sound came, Zhang Zhiwei didn't use any tricks and directly slapped Lu Ci in the face.

Lu Ci used all his strength and delivered the strongest attack of his life.

But before the two sides collided, the Qi energy in his fist was suppressed and exploded, and the white coat on his body was also blown apart by the pressure, turning into countless flying pieces of cloth, and he didn't have the strength to resist at all.

Lu Ci stared blankly at the slap in front of him. The palm lines on it were clearly visible. The slap came so fast that it seemed to block all his retreat routes.

He didn't even have the thought of resisting or dodging. In a trance, he saw his grandmother waving at him.
