Chapter 4: Improved Tongbeiquan

Under normal circumstances, Tongbeiquan is only a first-grade martial art, and after it is fully developed, it only has nine rings. This is common knowledge known to everyone who has embarked on the practice.

As for the nine superpositions of the sound, which is comparable to the second-grade martial arts, it is just a flattery. If you are a veteran who has been working hard for many years, you will know that the general skills and secrets that say "comparable to something" are just empty promises.

Perhaps in the hands of martial arts creators, these things will become a reality, but that is not something that ordinary practitioners can think about.

However, if someone could improve Tongbeiquan with his martial arts attainments, then he would be able to break through the limits of this level of martial arts.

With the memory of the previous life, Mu Zi knew that the Tongbei Fist improved by Zushi had the tenth ring. When all ten rings were released at the same time, the power was among the top among the second-grade martial arts.

Since she knew that nine rings was not the limit, Mu Zi would naturally continue to pursue. After all, she was not without capital.

Do it as soon as you think of it. Mu Zi swayed his body and practiced it over and over again.

"Raise your elbows a little higher here."

"The kicking speed here is too fast. Too much is as bad as too little."

"It's not enough. You need to mobilize the strength of your entire body."

While practicing, Mu Zi felt the power flowing in her body. She made minor adjustments bit by bit, and her movements became more and more perfect.

Before he knew it, another hour had passed and the sky had completely darkened, but Mu Zi had no intention of resting.

She took a deep breath and swung her fists again. If someone had watched the whole process, they would have noticed that Mu Zi's movements this time were very different from before.

"Pap-pap-pap-pap."

After nine shots, without any surprise, he was beaten out.

At this time, Mu Zi had already closed his eyes, and his mind was more focused than ever before. He felt the feeling in his mind, mobilized the strength of his whole body, and felt the strange feeling of the strength shuttling between the muscles and bones in his body.

While feeling it, Mu Zi's body swayed slightly along with the force. Even her delicate skin under her clothes was covered with a layer of light white waves.

All the muscles in his body seemed to be mobilized, pushing out layers of strength, and finally quickly condensing on Mu Zi's arms.

"Snapped!"

When the layers of power surged to his fist, Mu Zi's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and an extremely subtle crisp sound quietly came out from his body.

This voice is not loud, but it is full of vigorous power!
The tenth shot was successfully fired.

Mu Zi opened her eyes, but there was no joy in her expression. On the contrary, there was a strong sense of doubt in her lively eyes.

"Why? It feels weird."

It stands to reason that when a first-grade martial art breaks through its limits and becomes more powerful, it must be close to perfection, and even if it is not a complete masterpiece, it will at least be comfortable when performed.

But Mu Zi did not feel the slightest bit of joy. Although she had fired ten genuine rounds with even greater power, she felt that there was a sense of disharmony everywhere.

Something must be wrong. There is no proof, just a hunch.

However, for someone like her who possesses a high level of understanding, her intuition often does not lie.

"What went wrong?"

Suddenly, Mu Zi adjusted his body and performed the Tongbei Fist once again.

"Pap-pap-pap-pap."

This time there were only nine shots.

Although the number of sounds was not as large as before, there was an indescribable sense of rhythm in her dancing. It felt as if the boxing at this time was tailor-made for her.

"Which of these two ideas is right and which is wrong?" Mu Zi was a little confused.

After thinking for a while, Mu Zi stopped thinking.

It wasn't that she figured it out, but that she was hungry.

She had been studying martial arts for the entire afternoon, jumping up and down, and her stomach was already empty.

However, it seemed a bit unwilling to stop like this. However, this was not a problem for a reincarnationist.

With the corner of his mouth raised, Mu Zi seemed eager to try.

"Reincarnation Seal, let me see your limits!"

Concentrating his mind and gathering it at the center of his brows, the mysterious symbol reappeared. At the same time, the lively expression on Mu Zi's face gradually faded, replaced by a chilling indifference.

At this moment, those eyes were no longer lively, but looked like gods in the sky, looking down at all living beings. There seemed to be a light of wisdom flowing in them, as if nothing in the world could escape the insight of those eyes. "I see."

With a bright light in his eyes, Mu Zi once again took up his stance and performed a set of Tongbei Quan, the fluency of the movements surpassing any previous one.

"Clap clap clap"

Strangely, there were only eight shots this time.

Although there were only eight sounds, Mu Zi could feel that the power was stronger than the nine sounds he had used before.

A mark appeared on his forehead, wisdom shone in his eyes, and Mu Zi continued to deduce.

"clap clap"

Seven shots. This time there were only seven shots, but the power was strengthened a little bit.

Five rings, four rings, three rings
As the noise becomes less and less, the time taken for each Tongbeiquan is shortened, while the power is increasing.

Finally, after a stick of incense, it seemed as if I had finally broken through some kind of limit.

"Snapped!"

An unusually crisp sound was heard.

Nine sounds, at this moment, added up to one. One sound is better than nine!
Although the idea behind this was different from the improvement of the stone talisman, its power would surely not be inferior to the tenth round of the Tongbei Fist.

More importantly, with the help of the improved Tongbei Fist of the Samsara Seal, you can move as you like without having to go through the tedious ten-shot stacking. It is faster to perform and has more advantages in the fight. In the time it takes you to throw one punch, I have already thrown several punches.

After the reincarnation seal dissipated, Mu Zi stayed in place, experiencing the feeling just now.

Soon after, she came back to her senses and a satisfied smile appeared on her face. In an instant, it was like the ice and snow melting, and the night sky around her was dyed with happy colors.

"I see!"

I understand, I understand everything!
He who learns from others lives, he who imitates others dies.

Mu Zi reflected. She chose the wrong direction at the beginning because she was influenced by the original novel. In the original novel, Lin Dong practiced the Tongbei Fist with ten rings, so she subconsciously thought in that direction.

However, Mu Zi overlooked that everyone is different. Just because others can get by doesn't mean you can. Only what suits you is the best.

Perhaps in the original work, the martial arts demonstrated by the stone talisman light and shadow were all tailor-made for Lin Dong.

"I am obsessed."

After clearing away the fog and breaking through the obstacles to knowledge and understanding, Mu Zi's thoughts were now extremely clear.

She is who she is, and she has her own path to walk. If she just walks the path that Lin Dong walked in the original novel again, it would be too boring.

She has a high level of understanding, and it is easy for her to learn and improve martial arts. She has an open mind, and her experience in her previous life allows her not to be limited by this world.

With a little help from the Samsara Seal, she is able to embark on a path of martial arts that is unprecedented in history.

Perhaps it was because her state of mind had undergone a transformation, and at this moment Mu Zi's temperament had changed a little.

Although Mu Zi was very confident before, her aura was too impetuous and unreal. At this moment, Mu Zi's aura was restrained. On the surface, she looked like an ordinary girl next door, smart and lively.

But in the depths that are not easy to detect, there is a unique spirit hidden. It is a burning fighting spirit and unfathomable potential like the sea. If it is released one day, it will surely shock everyone.

At this time, accompanied by the sound of footsteps, people came talking and laughing.

The courtyard gate opened and Mu Yun and Mu Lingsha walked in.

"Sister, uncle!" the girl said in surprise.

"Xiao Zi, are you still practicing so late?" Mu Yun had a warm smile on his face, and the worry in his eyes gradually disappeared. He was very worried about Mu Zi's condition in the past few days, and now he was relieved to see that the girl was fine.

"Uncle, martial arts is too difficult. I will study it more."

"You have a very good attitude, much better than I did at the beginning. But you also have to take care of your health and combine work and rest."

Mu Yun was very pleased. It seemed that Mu Zi had endured the hardships of cultivation and would surely achieve something in the future. The spirits of his brother and sister-in-law could rest in peace.

However, he did not notice that Mu Lingsha's eyes became a little strange at this moment.

"Martial arts are difficult to practice? I don't believe your ghost!"

　The Ten-ring Tongbei Fist is said to be as good as the third-grade martial arts in the original book, but it does not have the expressiveness of the third-grade martial arts. I have slightly modified it, I hope you don't mind.
