The first stance, the second stance, the third stance, the fourth stance of the Forest of Ten Thousand Transformations!
Boom! Boom boom! Boom boom boom! Boom boom boom boom! Flowing like clouds and water, all in one breath—only four punches, yet bringing the power of ten! This martial technique was truly extraordinary!
"Whew..." Wei Zhao drew a deep breath. This martial technique was indeed no ordinary article. Though it looked like only four punches, it drained no ordinary amount of stamina. After practicing it just twice, Wei Zhao's stamina showed signs of exhaustion; he was drenched in sweat and could not summon the strength to go on!
Of course, unleashing a martial technique also consumed stamina, but this sort of consumption differed from the true qi spent in pill refining: it could be replenished simply by resting, rather than being the pure expenditure of energy that pill refining was.
With Wei Zhao's physique, unleashing the Forest of Ten Thousand Transformations twice had left him utterly spent. An ordinary person, he feared, could manage it only once. Then again, an expert at the peak of the early Earth Rank who could unleash even two stances was already quite good; without a third and fourth stance, there would not be such terrifying consumption of stamina either.
"Boss, how are you?" Seeing Wei Zhao's face a little pale, Han Xiaohu hastily asked.
"Nothing—just a little tired." Wei Zhao waved a hand. This kind of stamina depletion could be replenished with a short while in the jade pendant's space.
"That's a relief..." Han Xiaohu let out a breath. What he feared most was something happening to Wei Zhao—if something happened to Wei Zhao, what would become of tomorrow's Hidden World Families Summit?
"Let me rest a bit!" Wei Zhao said no more, sitting down on the stone bench in the courtyard and closing his eyes to enter the jade pendant's space, where he began to recover his stamina.
Han Tianba, watching from afar, waited until Wei Zhao sat down to rest before cautiously making his way over.
"Grandfather!" Han Xiaohu, who had been sitting on the stone bench keeping Wei Zhao company as he rested, hastily rose to greet him when he saw Han Tianba arrive.
"Xiaopo, Mr. Lin..." Han Tianba glanced cautiously at Wei Zhao and asked.
"Boss is tired and resting a while," Han Xiaohu said.
"Good, then!" Han Tianba nodded, his heart set at ease. "Just now, the martial technique Mr. Lin unleashed—was it... was it that Forest of Ten Thousand Transformations?"
"It should be. Boss has been studying that martial technique all along..." Han Xiaohu nodded and said.
"How formidable! If you too could master this martial technique, Xiaopo, and cultivate it without cease, then even if not invincible under heaven, you could at least stand in a very high place! This martial technique is truly out of the ordinary—as expected, the most domineering offensive martial technique in the ancient ruins!" Han Tianba sighed. "And it seems my comprehension is limited, for I misread the meaning of this technique. Its first stance is one punch, its second stance two punches... and so on. The tenth stance—what power would that be? Even if it could not slay experts of the same rank in a single blow, it would still let one stand undefeated!"
