Stop it, Taoist, Your Fight almost Ruins the DAO!-Chapter 554 - 363: The First Collision, Breaking the Limit Battle, Yue Qingping’s Three Swords of Heaven, Earth, and Man!
Eastern Continent still shuttled through space at times, while at others, it pressed ahead against the wind and waves, and thus another day passed.
Beneath the deck, within the ’dock’ space folded out by formations, Yi Chen sat cross-legged, savoring the martial arts scripture that Ying Si had taught him.
"Dominant Fist of Heaven and Earth", Emperor Qin’s martial prowess is truly remarkable, With this in mind, even the Millennium Emperor’s martial talent is still above Zuo Qianfu!"
Yi Chen’s expression was solemn as he filled the scripture with dense annotations.
To think that Emperor Qin had extrapolated the Dominant Fist of Heaven and Earth into twelve realms, and based on Yi Chen’s calculations, the final move, Supreme Unmatched, could even combat those in the Qi Refinement Realm.
Of course, this was theoretical, and if anyone were to diligently practice this method step by step, from Yi Chen’s professional view, they would falter at the tenth level.
All this was because Ying Si’s foundation was far too strong; what was a mere ditch for him was a chasm for others.
"However, Emperor Qin, after all, did not possess earth-shattering wisdom. It still depends on poor Daoist to fill the gaps for him, and I have already deduced the true essence of this method to the thirteenth realm, capable of slaying those in the Qi Refinement Realm."
Yi Chen let out a long breath of turbid air and set down the vermillion brush in his hand.
With his current martial arts cultivation and profound understanding of the body and spirit, he had surprisingly paved the way through the difficulties of practicing the Dominant Fist of Heaven and Earth.
Looking through the keyhole, Yi Chen also understood Ying Si’s intentions.
This strategically brilliant Millennium Emperor also harbored the same idea as him, setting sights on the martial path.
If Great Qin could really promote this widely, selecting and fostering the most promising, it’s feared that the foundation of Great Qin would become even more formidable.
During this contemplation, a golden flame suddenly burst forth, instantly incinerating the final version of "Dominant Fist of Heaven and Earth" that Yi Chen had refined.
How could something like this be shown to Emperor Qin?
He must be given a beggarly version, and it must be the newest of beggarly versions.
Quickly, Yi Chen took up his brush and crafted a simplified version of Dominant Fist of Heaven and Earth. Though it lowered the skill ceiling, the difficulty of the practice plummeted.

A true man must act in accordance with the times. Since Emperor Qin was keen on promoting martial arts, Yi Chengzi didn’t mind lending a hand.
This was the strategy of borrowing eggs to hatch chickens.
Let the Emperor hype up the scene first; when the time comes, wouldn’t all the groundwork laid be for Yi Chengzi’s benefit?
Once the Emperor gets the market going, Yi Chengzi could simply go public via a reverse merger, a simply perfect plan.
The more Yi Chen thought about it, the more he felt the plan was ingenious, and he became even more cautious in refining the beggarly version of Dominant Fist of Heaven and Earth.
Too high wouldn’t work, too low was even worse; he must grasp that middle ground just right. He’d iteratively refine five versions first to facilitate discussions with Emperor Qin; otherwise, how could he let Emperor Qin see his efforts?
As Yi Chen gradually increased his strength and his capital became sufficient, he could then slowly release subsequent versions.
Of course, every version had to be carefully considered according to his abilities; to be a half step ahead is genius, but to be two or three steps ahead is dangerous.
The struggle of Daoist succession has always been accompanied by bloodshed and cruelty, so Yi Chen was extremely cautious, iterating as if on thin ice.
On the fifth day.
"Hehehe, the five versions are finally finished."
Yi Chen set down the vermillion brush and immediately headed towards the location of the Millennium Emperor.
A short time later.
"Hidden Dragon Taoist is brilliant! In merely five days, he managed to refine the Dominant Fist of Heaven and Earth to such an extent, it’s truly astonishing!"
"From this, it seems the Taoist has also grasped my thoughts and intentions."
The gaze of the Millennium Emperor suddenly became intense as he exclaimed in admiration.
Yi Chen: "...If it weren’t for considering too many aspects beyond the cultivation technique, a single day would have been sufficient for this poor Daoist."
Of course, he couldn’t voice his inner thoughts. Yi Chen immediately bowed in salute and said:
"Poor Daoist has indeed guessed a part of it. With your majesty’s grand vision and strategy, you naturally wouldn’t spend time on such meaningless tasks."
As he spoke, Yi Chen’s voice paused slightly, and he uttered two terms.
"Martial path, Qin Mo!"
To move Ying Si to propel such a significant matter, it couldn’t be just about creating a batch of warriors comparable to those in the Qi Cultivation Stage.
With martial arts combined with Qin Mo, one could achieve an effect greater than the sum of their parts.
The martial path is fraught with peril, yet when compared with spiritual cultivation, it’s remarkably fast, using up top-tier talent. Moreover, those strong individuals who measure up to cultivators through the martial path are even more adept at competing with others.
If combined with the magic-breaking weapons developed by Qin Mo, Great Qin would gain yet another powerful new force.
By this method, Great Qin could hollow out the foundation of any force from the bottom to the middle.
Plus, Ying Si’s actions made Yi Chen speculate there was another layer to consider.
That is, compared to the established system of cultivators, the burgeoning martial system was like the gap between a primitive man and a fully armed super-soldier.
However, what Ying Si could never anticipate was that among these primitives was an anomaly like Yi Chen, who had mastered a ’trivial’ controlled nuclear fusion technology, actively scaling the Shen Hong Pure Yang technological reaction chamber,
And the version of Dominant Fist of Heaven and Earth he led had moved the ’primitives’ from the Stone Age into the Bronze Age.
The comprehensive gap led to dependence, with Emperor Qin-led martial path becoming a powerful blade in his hands, working for him.
Acknowledging this point, Yi Chen couldn’t help feeling a bit helpless.
He and Ying Si had unintentionally converged to a degree... Only, Ying Si was reaping the crop more excessively, treating martial cultivators purely as consumables.
Both were clever people, hinting at a limit. With Yi Chen equating the martial path and Qin Mo, it was already enough.
Ying Si looked at the majestic Daoist standing before him and couldn’t help but burst into laughter as he clapped his hands:
