Xu Qing stood still while Guard Ma ran around him, constantly striking with his Iron Sand Palm. Dozens of palms hit Xu Qing’s body, but Xu Qing did not dodge even one. As a result, Guard Ma shouted, "No more." He looked at his own palms, which were significantly swollen compared to usual, several sizes larger. He didn’t know how much medicated wine he would have to use to reduce the swelling. Guard Wang beside him also exclaimed in admiration, "Gongming, what kind of kung fu is this?" Xu Qing defeating Guard Ma, even with the joint efforts of his martial brothers, was hardly surprising. But what happened before their eyes was even more astonishing; Xu Qing stood still and took dozens of Iron Sand Palm strikes from Guard Ma without any damage and even inflicted injury upon Guard Ma. Moreover, Guard Ma had also consumed some of the Spiritual Fox’s flesh and blood, which, combined with his cultivation of the Bull Demon Strong Fist, significantly increased his strength and had already reached the middle layer of the Bright Strength level. He couldn’t believe that Xu Qing had managed to master defensive techniques like the Golden Bell Shield and Iron Cloth Shirt to a level of Great Success in such a short time. If it wasn’t for mastering a high-level hard Qigong to Great Success, the scene before their eyes would be just as hard to explain. Xu Qing smiled and said, "Actually, it’s just the Bull Demon Skin Movement skill." "Impossible, absolutely impossible," Guard Ma shook his head. They also knew the secrets of the Bull Demon Strong Fist, how could just the Bull Demon Skin Movement alone withstand his Iron Sand Palm. Xu Qing smiled without answering and walked over to a wooden dummy, sinking his waist and dropping his elbow, and forcefully slapped the wooden dummy. Guards Wang and Ma approached to take a look. Logically, with Xu Qing’s strength, with such a forceful slap, not only wooden dummies but even iron dummies should be twisted and even broken. But the wooden dummy didn’t budge an inch; not even a palm print was left. Guard Wang furrowed his brow, suddenly had an idea, and poked the spot where Xu Qing slapped with his finger. Although he did not specifically cultivate something like the Great Vajra Finger, this poke still possessed the power of common Iron Finger Skill.

Who would have thought that with this poke, he felt no resistance at all, as if poking into a block of tofu. Naturally, this was not the result of his finger strength. Guard Wang withdrew his finger. Beside him, Guard Ma exclaimed in shock. They saw the powdered wood chips flowing out like sand from the hole poked by Guard Wang, scattering all over the ground. Guard Wang revealed an expression of disbelief, "This is Dark Strength." Xu Qing nodded. Guard Wang was incredibly shocked, a thought surfacing in his mind, "Xu Gongming has mastered Dark Strength before turning fifteen, might I see the birth of a Martial Saint in my lifetime?" With Xu Qing’s current age mastering Dark Strength, there was a very high possibility that he could become a Martial Saint in the future. Even if not, advancing his Martial Arts to the Refining Internal level and cultivating his Dark Strength throughout his body to the Hua Realm level would also naturally follow. Such a personage, even if not holding an official position, can establish a school and teach a multitude of disciples, leaving their name in the annals of Martial Arts history. Xu Qing had also verified one of his speculations during his exchange with Guard Ma just now. Dark Strength involves the deep-level control of the entire body’s muscles and tendons. In addition, Xu Qing’s Divine Soul strength is not something ordinary Dark Strength masters can match. Having cultivated to Dark Strength, he has already elevated his control over muscles and tendons, coupled with the control of Divine Soul. In a state of Absolute Focus, he could completely anticipate Guard Ma’s angle of attack, and act faster than his opponent, deploying the Bull Demon Skin Movement at the exact spot about to be attacked, concentrating Qi-Blood, and mobilizing the strength of muscles and tendons to make the skin and inner parts incredibly hard within a localized area, greatly increasing the ability to withstand blows. He could even counterattack using the power of the muscles when being struck by the opponent. If it were other Dark Strength masters, even if they could mobilize Qi-Blood and muscles, they wouldn’t have Xu Qing’s precise control. Naturally, they couldn’t utilize the same effect in actual combat as Xu Qing did. Moreover, when Xu Qing goes out, having the Black Fox Robe to block the first layer of attacks as a buffer and this Bull Demon Skin Movement technique at hand, his personal defensive capability has, of course, increased significantly. However, this technique’s biggest flaw compared to hard Qigong like the Iron Cloth Shirt is that it’s not effective against group attacks. In a group attack situation where the enemy could strike from anywhere, it’s impossible to focus specifically. Especially when trapped amidst an army of swords and spears, avoidance is impossible. Guards Wang and Ma, also hailing from the Great Zen Temple, one of the orthodox Martial Arts sects, knew how Xu Qing was able to use Bull Demon Skin Movement to withstand Guard Ma’s Iron Sand Palm attacks after mastering Dark Strength. Knowing is one thing, learning is another! Just as Guard Ma knew that the Vajra Palm was much stronger than his Iron Sand Palm, his Qi-Blood and physical constitution were not enough to support him to cultivate such superior Buddhist Martial Arts. "Very good, very good. In another year or half, I’m afraid we brothers will not even qualify to test moves with you," Guard Wang laughed heartily. Guard Ma said with a smile, "When the time comes, let’s wait for Commander Zuo." After his enlightenment that day, Households Commander Zuo took leave and went back to the Martial Arts Academy at Laoshan Shangqing Palace for seclusion. It has to be said, having backing really makes a difference. To take leave whenever one wishes. It’s undeniable, due to the Emperor’s reverence for the Dao, lineages like Laoshan Shangqing Palace have a substantial voice in the court, and many from the Laoshan lineage occupy important positions in the Embroidered Guard and Inner Factory. This makes the brothers of Guard Wang green with envy. In terms of heritage, the Great Zen Temple is stronger than Laoshan Shangqing Palace, but unfortunately, it hasn’t encountered an Emperor like Tathagata, and even among the court’s powerful elites, there is no spokesman from the Great Zen Temple. Guard Wang had a thought: the old emperor was advancing in years, yet Xu Gongming was only under fifteen years old. Historically, new emperors, to vent their frustrations from when they were Crown Princes, would subconsciously clear away the old emperor’s old ties.
