Immortality Martial Arts: I Started with the Five Animals Health Fist

“Gaaaw!”

The Black Feathered Giant Eagle let out a piercing screech, spread its wings wide, stirring up a hurricane, and surged towards the sky!

On the eagle’s back, Luo Long shook his head and sighed, “This Hong Zhenxiang is also a rare talent; it’s a pity… he made such a choice, content with the ordinary.”

“Hmph… Life is but a mere hundred years, without seizing the path to progress, they are just mediocrities, fools! Failing to leave their mark in this world, just coming here in vain! How foolish!”

Eunuch Xu, however, coldly huffed, expressing disdain for Hong Zhenxiang’s choice. With a life so short, of only a hundred or two hundred years, not striving to achieve something great—having the chance and giving it up—shows a lack of ambition. Such a person is just a commonplace talent found everywhere!

…

After Eunuch Xu and Luo Long had left, Su Changkong sat on a chair, shaking his head, “The path I want to take, the things I pursue… they are different from theirs…”

Su Changkong had no regrets about his choice; he would rather find a way to restore his meridians than have his fate controlled by others!

“Mr. Su, what was that all about? It seemed like Eunuch Xu and his company weren’t too pleased when they left.”

“It was nothing much, just some questions being asked. Prefecture Lord Pei, I will go rest now,” Su Changkong didn’t elaborate on what had just happened, or else Pei Yang might also find it unbelievable that Su Changkong refused to join the Flame Dragon Guard.

Escorted by Di Hen, Su Changkong left the State Governor Mansion discreetly and returned to Ivy Manor.

The arrival of Eunuch Xu and Luo Long was a minor episode, and it also marked the complete disappearance of ‘Hong Zhenxiang.’ Pei Yang publicly claimed that Hong Zhenxiang had gone back to his rural hometown to recover from his injuries, and wouldn’t be taking up the lead post for the time being.

But everyone in Dafeng State City would remember that name!

“Work hard on my cultivation, and elevate the Five Animal Frolics to the 10th realm!”

Back at Ivy Manor, Su Changkong resumed his peaceful days, practicing the Five Animal Frolics daily and occasionally taking walks around the manor.

Su Changkong’s recovery was going exceptionally well; he gradually managed to move like a normal person, although he still couldn’t run or engage in strenuous exercise, at least he didn’t get breathless after just a few steps.

And the greatest progress of all was in Su Changkong’s Five Animal Frolics!

Five Animal Frolics (9th realm Unparalleled in the World 35%), Five Animal Frolics (9th realm Unparalleled in the World 36%)…

After Su Changkong had grasped the essence of the Intention Demon Form Skill and incorporated it into his practice of the Five Animal Frolics, cultivating with his intention, his Five Animal Frolics improved daily, and reaching the 10th realm was just a matter of time.

“Shoo, shoo, shoo!”

In front of Su Changkong, the figures condensed from his thoughts became more and more solid, even visible to the naked eye, practicing the Five Animal Frolics before him, each punch and each movement creating a sound as they split the air!

This was simply inconceivable, hard to believe that this was attainable for a set of Health-preserving Fist!

Following this path, Su Changkong moved forward, daily materializing his intentions to practice the Five Animal Frolics, all of which reflected on his body, as the mind could affect the physical form!

“Once the Five Animal Frolics break through to the 10th realm, I will leave Dafeng State City and go out to find a way to restore my meridians,” Su Changkong quietly determined.

No one wants to be a cripple, and Su Changkong was no different, but he understood that one must eat one bite at a time, do things step by step; there was no need to rush.

Summer gave way to autumn, adding a hint of chill to the air, which grew increasingly intense until it became winter’s cold.

The days were full, with a sense of fulfilment, and they always went by fast. It had been half a year since Su Changkong’s last experience with the setting sun’s blood battle, and with another year gone by, he was now 22 years old.

In wintertime, fine snowflakes fell from the sky, and Su Changkong sat cross-legged under a large tree that had shed its leaves and turned yellow; yet around him, a miraculous scene unfolded.

“Roar!”

Although Su Changkong was sitting motionless, the air in front of him faintly revealed the phantom of a giant tiger, roaring up to the heavens. Despite not emitting any actual sounds, the roar seemed to carry a wave of force that turned falling snowflakes into powder.

Not only that, Su Changkong focused his thoughts and infused his ‘essence’ into the phantom of the giant tiger, a technique he had mastered upon reaching the 8th realm of the Guiding Technique in combat with Chikhatu.

With this technique, he propelled his archery into the 9th realm.

Nature’s spiritual energy had to be refined by the Heavenly Pulse before it could be absorbed into the body to strengthen oneself. Without a Heavenly Pulse, Su Changkong didn’t absorb it into his body but instead merged it with his martial arts skills as a form of attack, which was also incredibly profound!

Having briefly stepped into the Innate Realm before, Su Changkong had not come away empty-handed, having condensed the Human Flower corresponding to human ‘essence.’ This enabled him to use his own essence to accomplish feats others couldn’t.

“Huff!”

Under the massive influence of guiding spiritual energy, the phantom of the giant tiger, with Su Changkong’s thought as its vessel and his essence as the catalyst, seemed to create a vortex that drew nature’s spiritual energy towards it.

The originally ethereal giant tiger now appeared substantial, its body and head clearly defined, its brownish-yellow fur wavering in the wind, fierce and intimidating, over ten feet long and looking very much alive, exuding an aura of tiger might!

“Roar!”

The phantom of the giant tiger roared towards the snow-covered ground in front of it.

“Boom!”

The sound wave spread, the snowflakes flew, spiritual energy swept through, and the thick layer of snow in front of it was blasted apart, revealing a deep ravine!
