Chapter 17 A New Beginning in Martial Arts
Bai Mo, who stayed in the hotel until the Linghe River turned into the Lingxi River, began to pack his luggage and prepare to return home.
"When I came here, it was still a world of normal people, but now when I leave, tens of millions of people with abilities have emerged." Bai Mo sighed while standing at the Hawaii Airport.
"Hey, Brother Bai Mo, why is it you again?" He heard a familiar voice calling him from behind.
Looking back, he found that it was the little sister he met at the beach a month ago.
"Good afternoon. Are you going back to China today too? What a coincidence. Where is your grandpa?"
"Grandpa, he's behind me." The little girl pointed behind her.
"By the way, I've been chatting for so long and I don't know your name?"
"My name is Hua Qing, brother Bai Mo, please remember it~"
"Okay, okay, you must remember it." Bai Mo took advantage of the situation and wanted to touch his head, but found that the little girl Hua Qing had already run towards her grandfather.
Less than half a minute later, Hua Qing pulled her grandfather Hua Taishan over.
As soon as Bai Mo said hello to the old man, she couldn't wait to say: "Grandpa has achieved a lot in Hawaii this time. He gained the ability to have a copper skin and iron bones in the Linghe River. He can run faster and has stronger strength." He’s also much older and even has fewer gray hairs.”
"After exercising hard a few days ago and getting familiar with the situation, grandpa remembered you and wanted to fight you again when he has time."
Xiao Huaqing revealed Hua Taishan's plans and trump cards outspokenly, making both of them feel embarrassed for a moment.
Hua Taishan smiled and patted his little granddaughter's head gently: "I told you to talk nonsense, there is nothing serious about it."
"Bai Mo, although this girl is a bit blunt, she also said what I meant. Let's find a time to discuss it formally."
"This time in the Linghe River, I feel that my body is at least twenty years younger. I will not suffer any loss in strength and stamina if I fight you. And with such a 'golden bell', I know you should also have a lot of strength." Let’s share the harvest together after returning to China.”
After fighting with Bai Mo on the beach, Huataishan no longer regarded Bai Mo as a junior. In this martial arts idiot's view, only those whose martial prowess is not lower than his own are worthy of being treated as peers.
Bai Mo once again felt a little helpless towards this martial arts idiot. Call him annoying, but he was completely unworthy, and he was straightforward and forthright in his treatment of others. Call him like it, he had always been quiet and calm, but he also felt that he was not compatible with an old man who was looking for fights all day long. It didn’t work out, so I could only laugh it off.
"Mr. Hua, you don't need to praise me like this. I will definitely visit you after I return home." Bai Mo planned to sneak in first.
"Then it's settled. I'll be waiting for you at any time after you return to China."
"Flight TH-1528 is about to start boarding. Passengers please bring your luggage, prepare your boarding pass, and go to gate C-11 to check in..." the staff's voice sounded at the airport , just changed the topic of the conversation between the two.
"Bai Mo, what's your position?" Hua Taishan, who has always been familiar with others, asked next.
"Seat D, row 28."
"It seems that we are quite destined. I am in the E position of row 28, and Hua Qing is in the F position of the 28th row." Hua Taishan continued to find something to say.
After checking in, Bai Mo, who was sitting in his seat, suddenly thought of a topic that both he and Hua Taishan were definitely interested in - ability.
"Hua Lao, can you show me your new abilities?" Bai Mo asked Hua Taishan, who was sitting next to him.
"Are you starting to collect information for future discussions so soon?" Hua Taishan replied with a smile.
"I don't mean that. It's just that I am also very interested in this new thing called ability and want to know more about it."
"Watch it!" After saying that, Hua Taishan began to use his ability to turn half of his arm and the outer skin of his palm into golden yellow.
Bai Mo unfolded his mind and scanned Huataishan from head to toe when he released his ability, paying special attention to the changes in Huataishan's arms before and after he activated his ability.
After showing off his ability, Hua Taishan looked at Bai Mo, and suddenly felt as if his routine had been completely seen, and replied: "Brother Bai, you are hiding it well. I feel that your ability is quite extraordinary."
"My ability is to observe the flow of special power in the body after other people's abilities are activated. It is a completely auxiliary ability, so I want to observe more about other ability users." Bai Mo continued to hide.
"Probably more...but I haven't fully demonstrated the limit of my ability. Now I can metalize the skin of both arms. It's normal for Bai Xiaobao to hide one hand." Hua Taishan thought to himself. . But he didn't expect that Bai Mo not only hid a hand, but also didn't even reveal the tip of the iceberg.
Bai Mo used his spiritual mind to feel the changes before and after the activation of Huatai Mountain's ability. In his perception, Huatai Mountain's skin structure was completely different from Bai Mo's own energy-absorbing skin structure.
After many evolutions, his energy-absorbing skin has become completely designed to absorb spiritual energy, and its internal structure has become fluffy, specifically designed to conduct spiritual energy and absorb free energy.
The outer skin is quite soft, and even after the previous spiritual tide training, its toughness is not higher than that of cowhide.
Huataishan's skin has evolved a very strong structure before activating his ability. After activating his ability, his skin quickly charges up, becoming somewhat similar to the charged armor in the novel.
"Hua Lao's ability is quite suitable for you. He is a master of martial arts, and he is best at using melee attacks. Now that he has the ability of such a copper-skinned and iron-boned person, his offensive and defensive abilities will be greatly increased."
"And I believe that as long as you practice more, you can achieve your mind's desire, and your skin will harden at the moment of attack or defense, which will greatly improve your ability to fight continuously."
"Brother Bai, your idea makes sense. I didn't expect you to come up with such a good solution in such a short time. I was still worried that the time to use my ability was too short, and the use of my ability would consume the energy in my body, and I would be exhausted if I used it too much."
"Does this count as helping the enemy?" Bai Mo joked with Hua Taishan.
"Xiao Mo, you are really talented in this area. You are born to practice martial arts. Speaking of helping the enemy, why don't you come directly to our National Martial Arts Association and I will teach you the national martial arts killing method myself." Hua Taishan figured out the problem of the continuity of ability use with the help of Bai Mo, and seemed very happy. He chatted with Bai Mo more cordially.
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Hua. I will come to learn from you if I have the chance." Bai Mo continued to laugh.
Hua Taishan is also an old hand, and he can hear Bai Mo's perfunctory tone: "Forget it, young people have their own ideas, and there is no point in forcing them."
Bai Mo began to round up the words: "By the way, Mr. Hua, I think that martial arts such as national arts should be able to have new and great developments now that aura has appeared. After all, aura has brought about earth-shaking changes in people's physical fitness."
"For example, it was impossible to imagine that human skin could really be comparable to steel before, but you have done it now."
"As far as I understand, martial arts are ultimately based on a strong physique, and now the upper limit of human physique seems to have been broken by aura. Can martial arts achieve the effect of defeating hot weapons through better body training methods?"
After mentioning that the martial arts that he had been obsessed with for a lifetime finally had great hope, Hua Taishan also began to immerse himself in the imagination of recreating the glory of martial arts, and his eyes burst into endless fighting spirit.
"I will study this with a few old men in the association after I go back. Here, as a martial artist, I formally invite you to join our research group. I believe that we will be able to carry forward the national martial arts and reach the point where it can compete with hot weapons, no, it can surpass all hot weapons!" Hua Taishan changed his previous joking attitude and stretched out his hand with a serious face. "Is this 'old man talking about the youth's passion'?" However, Bai Mo, who often imagined himself as the protagonist in the novel who could fight against the world with martial arts, also believed in the power of martial arts in his bones. Bai Mo did not hesitate and shook the hand that Hua Taishan stretched out. "Okay!" "Happy cooperation!"
