Chapter 71 — Breath of Earth! Lu Sheng is back!

Peng!

Peng!

Pa!

On the training ground, several boys with baseball bats surrounded Cao Yong and attacked him continuously.

The hard baseball bats smashed into Cao Yong’s body, but they made a muffled sound as if they were hitting a rock.

Cao Yong’s skin was a strange gray colour. When the wooden bats hit his skin, they were immediately bounced off.

“Again!”

Cao Yong’s face was full of anger. He could only passively take the hits and couldn’t fight back. There was a fire in his chest that could explode at any time.

“Cao Yong, take a break. Our hands are almost numb …” A boy with a baseball bat said with a bitter smile.

Cao Yong paused for a moment and nodded. “Okay, then we’ll practice later.”

Although these people were in awe of his talent and strength and were willing to gather around him, they were still martial arts geniuses. A top figure in the city could not really be his henchmen and be wantonly ordered around by him.

He had to take care of their emotions.

Seeing Cao Yong nod, the boys let out a sigh of relief and sat down to rest.

Just as they were chatting idly, a person rushed in from outside as if his life depended on it.

“Cao … Cao Yong, something … something big happened!” The person was out of breath. To be able to make an official martial artist run like this, it must be something very urgent.

“Something big? What can happen in the training camp?” Cao Yong replied indifferently. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something. He stood up abruptly and said, “Meng Jinhe broke the record? Or Xia Lin?”

The person patted his chest and calmed his breathing. He shook his head and said, “It’s not Meng Jinhe or Xia Lin …”

“Then who is it?”

“It’s Lu Sheng! That Lu Sheng from Baihe City!”

The person finally calmed his breathing and finished speaking in one breath. “Lu Sheng entered the 4x Gravity Training Room. He … Ai, I don’t know. Anyway, he’s about to break your record. Let’s go have a look!”

“Lu Sheng?!” Cao Yong’s expression froze. This was a name he never thought of. “Let’s go take a look.”

Cao Yong thought for a moment, grabbed his clothes on the ground and strode out of the training room.

…

“I’ve almost become familiar with 4x gravity …” Lu Sheng stopped what he was doing, his face calm. The Gravity Training Room was more interesting than he had imagined.

In other words, it was very suitable for his current state. After a month of hard work, Lu Sheng, who had improved in all aspects, needed an environment like this that could constantly provide him with pressure to settle down.

“2x gravity doesn’t affect me at all. I just feel a little more burden on my body. It’s like the air has become thicker, and it takes more effort to do the same action as usual. With four times the gravity, this feeling becomes even more pronounced. In the beginning, even breathing was a little difficult. But it’s just discomfort. When you get used to it, it’s all the same.”

As Lu Sheng thought about it, he picked up the remote control on the ground and pressed the “+” button.

The gravity increased again!

Five times the gravity!

Lu Sheng felt a sudden pressure on him.

Lu Sheng felt his body sink down, as if he had suddenly fallen into a swamp, and his movements became increasingly difficult.

“This pressure should be sufficient …” Lu Sheng’s eyes lit up and he took a deep breath. “Now, it’s time to test out my new gains.”

“Switch to Earth Breathing!” In an instant, Lu Sheng’s breathing changed.

It was a change that couldn’t be described in detail. Lu Sheng’s chest began to move up and down in a strange rhythm, and his body began to move in a strange way. His feet were tightly gripping the ground.

Through the thick floor mats, it was as if there was an invisible force flowing through the ground and into his body.

This was one of Lu Sheng’s gains from this month of hard work.

One of the special breathing techniques he had learned from the advanced chapter of Natural Breathing Technique.

Earth Breathing Technique!

Although Lu Sheng was still far from being able to comprehend the corresponding Earth inner energy (inner strength), what he was able to grasp now was enough to bring about a significant boost to his strength.

Like now.

Hiss~

Outside the training room, the crowd of onlookers all sucked in a breath of cold air when they saw this. At this time, the small room was already crowded with people. At the same time, there were people rushing in from the eight entrances of the training room.

Among them was Cao Yong who had just arrived.

“How is it? Has Lu Sheng come out? How long has he been in the 4x gravity room?” Cao Yong asked as soon as he arrived.

Before the person he asked could answer, he heard the crowd at the glass window erupt into fierce exclamations.

“Holy shit, 5x gravity!”

“Lu Sheng increased the gravity to five times!”

“Oh my god, if I went in, I would probably be crushed to death!”

“Crazy!”

Five times gravity?!

Cao Yong was stunned for a moment when he heard these discussions, then he quickly rushed over and pushed the crowd aside with a sullen face.

“Motherfucker, push your father …” A boy who was grabbed by the shoulder by Cao Yong turned his head angrily, only to see Cao Yong’s scarily sullen face.

He was stunned.

“Cao Yong?”

Cao Yong was here.

The news quickly spread among the crowd.

The people in front of the glass turned their heads and looked at Cao Yong with a strange look.

“This is going to be a good show …” Someone whispered secretly.

Cao Yong pretended that he didn’t hear this and looked straight into the room.

Inside the room, a tall young man was standing in the middle of the room, his body swaying slightly to a special rhythm. His breathing was steady, and his handsome face was calm.

At first glance, Cao Yong’s pupils shrank.

He could still stand up?!

Cao Yong turned his head and looked at the small screen next to him in disbelief.

The crowd opened up a path for him. Someone joked, “Cao Yong, don’t look, it’s really five times, the screen isn’t broken!”

“Haha …” Soft laughter could be heard from the crowd …

Cao Yong glared at that person, then turned to look at the training room. He was shocked and in disbelief.

Five times the gravity! It was really five times gravity.

How did Lu Sheng do it under this kind of pressure?

He, Cao Yong, had a mysterious and powerful martial artist teacher who taught him online every night. He had so many points that he couldn’t spend them all. He soaked in the Gravity Training Room every day and gained ten times more than others. His vitality (BQV) had also improved by leaps and bounds …

With so many unique conditions, he only dared to try 4x gravity a week ago.

It took him a week to achieve the result of three minutes in 4x gravity. Yet he couldn’t move around like Lu Sheng. He couldn’t move at all.

Under 4x gravity, it was difficult for him to even blink, let alone stand and move around like Lu Sheng.

How did he do it?!

Didn’t he just come out of seclusion in the dormitory today?!

Cao Yong pressed his hands on the one-way glass window, staring into the room. His expression was ferocious and exaggerated, even a little funny.

At this moment, no one could laugh.

Everyone’s attention was on Lu Sheng in the room. Their expressions were complicated and indescribable.

“Lu Sheng is back …” Suddenly, someone in the crowd said softly.

There were many people who heard this, and their expressions all fell silent.

Yes.

Lu Sheng was back.

The Lu Sheng who shocked and oppressed everyone when he entered the camp, the Lu Sheng who was like a demon king …

Now, he was back.

“Earth Breathing can reduce about ten percent of the pressure under five times gravity …” Lu Sheng came up with a figure in his heart.

It was already a very impressive effect. After all, among the few breathing techniques that he had comprehended, his achievements in the Earth Breathing Technique was the lowest.

It was also not the direction that he focussed on.

“The concept of “Natural Breathing Technique” is very obvious. It is the unity of man and nature, allowing the practitioner to unleash one hundred percent or even one hundred and twenty percent of their combat power in any environment …”

The power of a Level 11 technique could only be understood after one had truly practised and experienced it.

That kind of level and structure was not something that ordinary techniques could compare to.

“5x gravity is almost suitable for my current cultivation under normal conditions. Under five times the gravity, I should be able to do the movements of the Stellar Body Refining Technique. If the gravity is increased any higher, it will be difficult …”

However, Lu Sheng knew that this was under normal conditions. The Stellar Body Refining Technique could not be casually exposed to outsiders.

Therefore … He had to seek pressure.

More pressure.

Pressure that could push him to his limits!

In that case … He would continue to increase the gravity.

With a calm expression, Lu Sheng picked up the remote control and gently pressed a button.
