Dragon's Origin

Wang Sheng couldn't help but be happy! If Wang Sheng were to learn on his own, following Master Lu's steps, even if Wang Sheng considered himself a carving genius, he wouldn't be able to shake off the title of craftsman for at least ten years. After ten years, he could talk about becoming a famous artist or a grandmaster, and as for a great grandmaster? He'd have to wait until he was over sixty.

With Master Lu's level of skill, coupled with Wang Sheng's knowledge from Earth, carving a Lao-Tzu statue that could attract everyone's attention wouldn't be too difficult.

Wang Sheng's attention was focused on Master Lu's hammer and chisel techniques, and soon he became as immersed as Lingxu Old Daoist and Master Lu.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but Wang Sheng finally woke up from his obsessed learning state. He opened his eyes and saw Master Lu and Lingxu Old Daoist. Looking again, the sky had already turned dark, and glancing at his watch, it was past midnight.

The old Daoist didn't know how long he had been waiting. As soon as he saw Wang Sheng wake up, he poured out all the things he had realized, as if he wanted to verify them with Wang Sheng.

In fact, Wang Sheng himself only had a superficial understanding of Tai Chi, and he wasn't very proficient in the real core techniques. He relied entirely on his own half-baked understanding and the deduction and optimization of the combat awareness little man to get to this point. This level could give Lingxu Old Daoist inspiration, but it wasn't enough to allow the old Daoist to fully comprehend it.

However, Lingxu Old Daoist had an advantage, which was his super high cultivation. Many things were completely unobstructed in his eyes. He was just trapped by his own thoughts, bound and disturbed. Wang Sheng's fighting style was like a thunderclap, making him suddenly enlightened. In just half a day, he had countless exciting insights.

The old Daoist couldn't wait to communicate with Wang Sheng to see if what he had realized was correct. Master Lu was the same, but Master Lu didn't have as deep an understanding as the old Daoist. He only understood the techniques of applying force, but it had the same effect as the old Daoist's understanding.

Wang Sheng also needed the old Daoist, this super master, to correct his Tai Chi. The three of them completely ignored the time and happily exchanged ideas and sparred on the spot.

When Wang Sheng felt that his understanding of Tai Chi had reached a new level, and even the combat awareness little man began to optimize Tai Chi more deeply, the three stopped. Looking at the time, more than two days had passed. During these two days, the three of them didn't feel tired or hungry at all. At most, when they were excited, Wang Sheng took out fine wine and the three drank a lot.

When the energy passed, even though the three of them had good cultivation, they couldn't help but feel tired after this concentrated brainstorming. The old Daoist didn't care about his previous habit of sending Wang Sheng back to the little teacher to rest, and actively invited the two to rest in the small Taoist temple.

After a solid sleep, Wang Sheng knew that his combat power had been improved again without fighting. The feeling in both his body and spirit was one of wanting to immediately fight a super strong opponent.

Fighting with a sixth-level master, referring to Master Lu's techniques, and discussing with Lingxu Old Daoist, Wang Sheng's Tai Chi realm had made a qualitative leap. Combining these, even against a fourth-level peak master like Dai Siye, Wang Sheng was confident in facing him.

Master Lu left early. He originally only planned to stay here for a day to guide his little apprentice before leaving. Because of Wang Sheng, he stayed for more than ten days and had to rush back to continue dealing with the affairs of the Linglong Pavilion.

Not only did Master Lu leave, but even Lingxu Old Daoist had such plans.

"Thanks to you," Lingxu Old Daoist said with a radiant face, clearly showing extreme mental pleasure: "I'm going to leave for a while."

Wang Sheng didn't ask where Lingxu Old Daoist was going, guessing that even if he asked, the old Daoist wouldn't say.

"Thanks to you this time, I was able to comprehend the essence of Tai Chi," the old Daoist didn't seem to intend to hide what he was going to do from Wang Sheng: "I plan to find a place to practice hard for a while, and come back to you after I understand it."

Finding a place to practice hard probably meant seclusion. Wang Sheng didn't find it strange, but Wang Sheng hoped even more that the old Daoist would repay his kindness for his enlightenment and tell him what he wanted to know.

"I can't tell you what you want to know yet," the old Daoist seemed to see through Wang Sheng's expectations at a glance, and told Wang Sheng directly without dodging: "But I promised you before that I would teach you how to practice lifting light objects as if they were heavy, and I can teach you now."

Cultivation method? Wang Sheng's eyes lit up instantly. To be honest, since Wang Sheng came to this world, he hadn't obtained any valuable cultivation methods from the beginning, and he had been practicing all the way up relying on his own understanding.

At the beginning, it was the Taiji Hunyuan Pile, the most basic pile stance. Later, practicing acupoint force was the most basic Heavenly King Fist. Even later, there was nothing else, only Wang Sheng forcibly splitting the Yuanshen to improve. It wasn't that Wang Sheng couldn't buy it, but there wasn't a suitable one.

After the old Daoist finished speaking, he greeted Wang Sheng and said that he would find some tools to guide him according to local conditions. This made Wang Sheng very curious and expectant. What kind of cultivation method would a super master tailor for him?

Half a day later, Lingxu Old Daoist returned to the small Taoist temple, carrying a rolled-up package. Wang Sheng curiously watched the old Daoist open it, and then saw a chisel that looked very good, and a pile of hammers.

Lingxu Old Daoist picked up the chisel and handed it to Wang Sheng. Wang Sheng didn't think it would be very special, but when he reached out to take it, the chisel was unexpectedly heavy, and he almost dropped it on the ground.

He hurriedly grabbed it with force, and only then did he prevent the chisel from falling. This chisel looked inconspicuous and was quite the right size, but the weight of the chisel alone was about a thousand catties. What kind of material had such a high density?

"This was made after I told you that I wanted to carve a Lao-Tzu statue," the old Daoist introduced the chisel: "It is made of Earth Deficient Gold, which is super hard and super tough, and can be used to carve Starry Sky Gold." Seeing that Wang Sheng was still weighing the chisel, he casually said: "There is a formation inside, I just activated it, which can increase the weight by a hundred times. You can use your spiritual power to activate it yourself in the future."

So that's how it is, Wang Sheng then understood how this weight came about. It turned out that it wasn't that the density of Earth Deficient Gold was high, but because of the formation.

"This hammer is also of the same quality," Lingxu Old Daoist handed over another hammer. Wang Sheng was prepared this time, and took it in advance with force, and sure enough, the weight was about the same.

"When carving, first use this set of tools," the old Daoist instructed: "When you can use a weight of two thousand catties as effectively as an ordinary hammer and chisel of less than ten catties, then change the hammer."
