"Is this Entering Spirit?" Chu Zhiyuan suddenly threw another punch.
In the next moment, a soft light appeared, quickly condensing into a fist of light, instantly appearing in front of Li Yuzhen, ten zhang away.

Li Yuzhen swung her sword.
The tip of the sword, condensed with a red glow, struck the fist of light.
Instantly, a gale howled.
Li Yuzhen's white robe fluttered, her temples swaying, as if she wanted to ride the wind away.
A punch was thrown, ignoring distance, instantly striking the opponent.
Li Yuzhen's cultivation realm was the Transformation God Realm, her reaction and speed far surpassing his current Transformation Qi Realm, and coupled with possessing Entering Spirit level martial arts, she was able to block it.
Chu Zhiyuan threw several punches, causing Li Yuzhen to constantly draw her sword.
Super-sense was illuminating both sides.
He was watching his own fist technique, analyzing and illuminating his own fist technique, while also watching Li Yuzhen's sword technique.
The power in the void rapidly condensed towards his fist, then transformed into a light, and then instantly shot out.
This light seemed unaffected by air resistance, instantly traversing space, arriving at Li Yuzhen's location.
And the red glow at the tip of Li Yuzhen's sword was also extremely strange. The power of the Great Bright Fist would collapse upon touching it, as if accurately striking the structural center of the Great Bright Fist.
It was like a house, collapsing the center of gravity, easily breaking the structure of the house. If it were purely power against power, it wouldn't be so easy to defeat the power of the Great Bright Fist.
But this point of red glow was not a head-on collision, but a subtle disintegration of the extremely pure power of the Great Bright Fist, which could be described as ingenious.
He retracted his fist and stood upright, his eyes burning, his face radiant, a smile on his lips.
He was also extremely excited and surprised to have comprehended the Entering Spirit level Great Bright Fist.
He didn't expect that once he comprehended it, he would step into the Entering Spirit level so easily. Li Yuzhen also stood with her sword, calm and indifferent.
Chu Zhiyuan stepped forward to her, looking her up and down, especially the long sword on her slender waist.
The long sword was simple and unadorned, filled with the vicissitudes of time, obviously of great origin.
"Good sword technique," Chu Zhiyuan said, "What is this sword technique?"
"Crimson Cloud Sword Art," Li Yuzhen said.
"Never heard of it, the sword technique of Crimson Cloud Peak?"
"... Yes," Li Yuzhen said.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "What level is this Crimson Cloud Sword Art?"
"Transformation Spirit Realm."
"No wonder," Chu Zhiyuan nodded, "If your Crimson Cloud Sword Art hadn't been trained to the Entering Spirit level, could it have blocked my Great Bright Fist?"
"It couldn't have blocked it," Li Yuzhen said.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Can the realm of martial arts suppress the realm of cultivation?"
"Cultivation enhances oneself, while martial arts draw upon the great power of heaven and earth to strengthen oneself. Entering Spirit level martial arts, and moreover, a first-grade Entering Spirit level martial art, can naturally suppress the cultivation of the Transformation God Realm—of course, the premise is that the person with the Transformation God Realm cultivation has not trained in Entering Spirit level martial arts."
"First-grade..."
"Does the驸马爷 not know that martial arts are divided into nine grades?"
"I haven't paid much attention to it. Anyway, I only need to practice the Great Bright Fist."
"The Great Bright Fist is a first-grade martial art, rare in the world. Martial arts are divided into nine grades. The first six grades can all suppress the cultivation realm through the martial art realm, while the last three grades do not have this effect. In fact, among the last three grades, there are only four realms in the Eight Realms, while the middle three grades have six realms, and only the upper three grades have eight realms."
Chu Zhiyuan suddenly understood.
He really didn't know these basic knowledge, which was why he didn't enter the Diwu Academy.
"Normally speaking, it is difficult for a Transformation Qi Realm cultivator to comprehend the Godlike level of martial arts, but it is not difficult to comprehend the Intent level. It is not difficult for a Transformation Intent Realm cultivator to comprehend the Godlike level… Therefore, using the realm of martial skills to suppress the cultivation realm is just a beautiful fantasy that is difficult to achieve in reality."
"So, am I a martial arts genius who has done what others cannot do?"
"… Yes, 驸马爷 is indeed a genius, rarely seen in the world."
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Hearing these words from your mouth makes me especially happy."
Li Yuzhen was silent.
Chu Zhiyuan turned and left the alley, found a restaurant, and drank wine while watching the performance.
The Seventh Prince, Chu Lieyu, quickly appeared.
He was wearing a dark green brocade robe, accompanied by two restrained middle-aged guards, waving a white jade folding fan, in the style of a rich young master.
Chu Zhiyuan got up and clasped his fist.
The two sat down at the table, laughing and talking, drinking wine, eating some fruits, and chatting casually.
On the rooftop of the central courtyard of the restaurant, a group of women were dancing gracefully, wearing soft and loose robes. As they undulated, spun, and leaped, their exquisite figures were faintly visible, creating a strong urge to tear open their clothes and see the scenery inside.
Chu Zhiyuan's eyes were calm, holding a silver cup, quietly watching these dancers.
Super-sense discovered that the dancers' steps were miraculous, vaguely emitting a strange power, spreading out, causing people's minds to fluctuate.
Is this still a branch of the Heavenly Demon Clan's cultivation method?
Chu Lieyu put down his wine cup and said with a smile, "Ninth Brother, do you know why Big Brother, Second Brother, and Third Brother are all red-eyed and determined to enter the Jade Scene Grotto Heaven?"
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.
Chu Lieyu glanced left and right, and suddenly changed to using sound transmission: "I have found out that it is because the Heavenly Human Summit of the Jade Scene Grotto Heaven will reappear this time."
Chu Zhiyuan looked at him in confusion.
He really didn't know what the Heavenly Human Summit was.
Chu Lieyu turned his head and glanced around: "This is a secret among secrets. I will tell you tomorrow when we go to the Great Bright Peak."
Although Chu Zhiyuan was curious, he didn't ask any more questions.
The two watched the performance for a while, and although the Seventh Prince admired these graceful dancing women, he didn't take action, just watched.
The two returned when they had had their fill of entertainment.
When Chu Zhiyuan returned to the Prince's Mansion, Youlan and Xiaozhu were already waiting in the courtyard. After serving him to wash up, he sat on the couch to practice his cultivation.
Martial skills are important, but the realm of cultivation is the foundation, the fundamental way to extend one's lifespan.
At noon the next day, Chu Zhiyuan saw Chu Honglin coming.
He didn't hide anything and directly used the Great Bright Fist, shocking Chu Honglin.
He looked at Chu Zhiyuan in confusion.
After a moment, he suddenly turned and left, drifting away like a white cloud, but with extraordinary speed.
After a while, he floated back again, appearing in front of Chu Zhiyuan, with a jade scepter in his hand.
The jade scepter was half an arm long, carved with strange patterns, as if they were faintly flowing.
The jade was mutton-fat white jade, emitting a soft, lustrous glow, as warm and moist as soaked in spring water.
Chu Zhiyuan was curious, wondering what he was going to do with this. Could it be a gift for himself?
A reward for his extraordinary comprehension, training the Great Bright Fist to the Entering Spirit level?
Unexpectedly, Chu Honglin suddenly waved the jade scepter and gently tapped him on the forehead.
Chu Zhiyuan was caught off guard. The distance was too close to dodge in time.
As soon as the jade scepter touched his forehead, his eyes blurred, as if the world suddenly began to shake violently, and his body lost control.
He hurriedly used super-sense to replace his own senses, and his figure regained its balance after kneeling down.
"Fifteenth Uncle, what is this…?" He steadied himself and looked at Chu Honglin in confusion.
Chu Honglin looked at the jade scepter, then looked at Chu Zhiyuan, and smiled, "Not bad, not bad!"
Chu Zhiyuan said in confusion, "Fifteenth Uncle, what is this?"
"Evil-Repelling Scepter," Chu Honglin said with a smile, "His Majesty's treasure, specially designed to restrain the souls of the Heavenly Demons and the demon race."
Chu Zhiyuan immediately understood his meaning and said unhappily, "Fifteenth Uncle suspects that I have been possessed?!"
Chu Honglin said, "We must be cautious, after all, your change is too great."
