His voice was so loud that the two groups of people nearby turned to look.
Chen Fan was also taken aback.
"Ahem, it’s nothing, it’s nothing. You all continue."
Zhang Ren felt a little embarrassed and greeted them, then stared intently at Chen Fan: "Can you really unleash the Power of Qi and Blood? No, how did you know about this?"
In his memory, it had never been mentioned because the time wasn’t right yet.
"It’s this."
Chen Fan didn’t plan to hide it and took out a thin booklet.
"Meteor Arrow Technique?"
Zhang Ren read the name aloud and took it with a puzzled expression.
Opening the cover, as Chen Fan expected, Zhang Ren’s brows immediately furrowed.
He read at an extremely fast pace, almost scanning ten lines at a glance, and within a few seconds, he had flipped to the last page.
"Is this a fragment?"
The next moment, he looked at Chen Fan.
"Yes."
Chen Fan nodded and recounted what had happened on his way back.
Zhang Ren’s eyes widened; he never expected that such a thrilling event had occurred on the way back, but fortunately, Chen Fan remained calm and ultimately turned danger into safety.
"Uncle Zhang, let’s not tell the others in the village about this for now," Chen Fan said in a low voice.
"Alright."
Zhang Ren agreed, then looked at the thin booklet in his hand and murmured to himself: "This Meteor Arrow Technique should be a genuine archery martial art, but it’s missing too much content. However, it’s understandable that ten pounds of rice wouldn’t be enough to exchange for a complete martial arts secret manual."
Chen Fan nodded repeatedly, agreeing with him.
"By the way,"
Zhang Ren turned his head, "You must have learned about unleashing the Power of Qi and Blood from this, right?"
"Yes."
Chen Fan hesitated, wondering if he should share his previous feelings.
Zhang Ren’s voice continued, "Unleashing the Power of Qi and Blood is something that only happens at the Muscle Refining Realm."
"Only at the Muscle Refining Realm?"
Chen Fan’s eyes widened.
"Yes."
Zhang Ren glanced at Chen Guodong and the others standing in their posture stance and said, "Martial artists in the Body Tempering Realm still have relatively thin qi and blood. Only when they reach the Muscle Refining Realm, where the qi and blood are abundant, can they unleash the Power of Qi and Blood."
"What effect would that have?"
Chen Fan couldn’t help but ask.
"Naturally, it means greater power and speed. For instance, with bare hands, unleashing the Power of Qi and Blood would make punches faster and more destructive. If holding a spear or knife, the swinging speed would be faster, and the force would be heavier. If using a bow,"
His voice paused, and he looked at Chen Fan, "You should be able to draw a heavier bow, and the shooting speed would be faster."
Chen Fan nodded, understanding in his heart. No wonder he didn’t have to exert much effort to draw the bow earlier; so that’s how it is.
Thinking about it, the Power of Qi and Blood is somewhat akin to the superpower of that guy Gu Ze. The Martial Arts path indeed holds great potential.
"Of course, it doesn’t mean that one must reach the Muscle Refining Realm to unleash the Power of Qi and Blood."
Zhang Ren added: "Some exceptionally talented individuals can do it at the Body Tempering Third Layer. However, if their qi and blood aren’t thick enough, frequently unleashing it can be more harmful than beneficial."
As he spoke, he glanced at Chen Fan intentionally, seeing that he didn’t understand, Zhang Ren felt relieved. It seems he was overthinking. After all, it’s improbable for someone at the Body Tempering First Layer to use the Power of Qi and Blood, even in a passive situation.
