Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System

Chapter 533: Chapter 199: Flying Petals and Leaves, Transcendent Methods

「An hour later.」

At eleven in the morning, in a small grove.

”I can’t take it anymore, I can’t handle it, Master, slow down, I’m about to.... Ah!”

A woman’s voice, delicate as a warbling oriole, emerged from the depths of the small grove. It sounded both breathless and tearful, enchanting and moving. Merely listening to it was enough to evoke a sense of pity.

SMACK SMACK—

”No, hold on, this time we will definitely get it out!”

Crisp striking sounds, followed by a man’s voice, rang out. The woman’s voice grew increasingly high-pitched, until a moment later, it culminated in a scream.

THUD—

HAH—HAH—

The sound of something heavy hitting the ground was followed by heavy panting.

Chen Rourou knelt on the ground, her clothes disheveled, her gaze blurred, and her hair stuck to her forehead, drenched in sweat. Zhang Beixing now stood before her.

Seeing Chen Rourou’s state, he frowned. ”What’s the matter? You can’t handle it? Weren’t you the one insisting on learning the Lightness Technique?”

”But I didn’t realize it would be this difficult,” Chen Rourou panted, her voice thick with grievance as she complained pitifully, her face full of resentment. ”It actually requires Postnatal Five Qi.”

Just moments ago, Zhang Beixing had called her over for martial arts training. Curious about how Zhang Beixing performed his Lightness Technique, she had pestered him, requesting to learn it. Zhang Beixing, thoroughly annoyed by her insistence, had nodded in agreement. And so, the scene from moments ago had unfolded.

The most basic requirement for using the Lightness Technique was employing the Postnatal Five Qi. But given Chen Rourou’s current condition, it was clear she lacked this. Therefore, Zhang Beixing could only rely on his own experience. Using the most rudimentary yet feasible method, he stimulated the Qi and Blood and acupoints in her body, aiming to make her internal energy resonate and thereby attempt to generate the Postnatal Five Qi.

As for the result... it was an obvious failure.

This wasn’t just because Chen Rourou herself couldn’t bear it, but more so because Zhang Beixing discovered that this method—using resonance to make the internal organs produce Postnatal Five Qi—only worked for him. The reason for this was that the enhancements Zhang Beixing had obtained through the System were simply too comprehensive—so comprehensive, in fact, that they even included his internal organs. Thus, Zhang Beixing’s organs could withstand the power of resonance and nurture the Postnatal Five Qi. But what he could withstand, others could not!

This was also why, despite his prolonged efforts, he had come up empty-handed.

”Alright, take a rest. I’m going to continue training with hidden weapons,” retracting his stance and exhaling, Zhang Beixing said to Chen Rourou. ”Although I didn’t manage to help you generate the Postnatal Five Qi this time, the resonance I induced just now has forced out some impurities from your body. Remember to take a bath when you get back; there’ll be a pleasant surprise.”

Hearing his words, Chen Rourou obediently nodded. She sat quietly to one side, hugging her knees with her small chin resting on them, still gasping for breath as she watched Zhang Beixing train without blinking.

Ever since he received the suggestion of *Qi Control*, Zhang Beixing had been diligently researching related matters. According to his research during this period, ordinary people who wanted to train with hidden weapons mostly started by practicing with heavy objects like stones. Only when they could throw stones with the precision and force of bullets, hitting whatever they aimed at, would they advance to lighter objects, such as playing cards or Flying Needles.

For instance, many Streamers on Douyin were experts at throwing cards and Flying Needles, performing feats like slicing cucumbers with cards or piercing wooden boards with needles. However, their techniques were too mundane. Not only did they lack killing power, but they also didn’t exhibit any special qualities; they were merely the result of practice making perfect.

In fact, many masters in the martial arts world were far more adept. After all, there were martial arts schools specializing in weapons and hidden weapons, and their skill level was naturally higher. Give them a stone, and the destructive power they could unleash was considerable. But that was the extent of it.

Naturally, this wasn’t what Zhang Beixing was aiming for. In various fictional novels, the highest realm of hidden weapon mastery was the ’Picking Flower and Flying Leaf,’ which existed only in theory. Upon reaching this realm, almost anything in the world could be used as a hidden weapon. Even an inconspicuous leaf by the roadside could be used to kill!

But these were, after all, fictional concepts, existing only in literary works. In reality, the idea of a human making a leaf lethal with sheer force was highly contrary to scientific principles and common sense. Yet, it was precisely this that Zhang Beixing desired.

Although Zhang Beixing had now reached the Hidden Essence realm, possessing a Mental Attribute as high as 180 and prodigious talent, he had little prior experience with hidden weapons, as he hadn’t focused much on this skill before. He decided to start with the basics to get a feel for it. Once he got the hang of it, he would start practicing more difficult techniques.

And so, he turned and, from the bag he always carried, took out the hidden weapon box gifted to him by Huo Honghao. Opening it, he retrieved an exquisitely crafted, incredibly small flying dagger.

Pinching the handle of the flying dagger, he felt its considerable weight.

”Go!” Zhang Beixing suddenly uttered.

The flying dagger in his hand shot out.

SWOOSH— THUNK!

The sound of something cutting through the air was heard as the flying dagger launched by Zhang Beixing embedded itself firmly in a tree trunk. Seeing this, Zhang Beixing raised an eyebrow, clearly not expecting it to be so simple. So, he threw a few more.

THUNK THUNK THUNK—

Without fail, every flying dagger landed precisely where he aimed.

”Heh, pretty simple, huh.” Seeing this, Zhang Beixing gave a slight smile.
