Just as Ethan Chen was about to inquire about the current changes in the Sacred Tree, a sudden flash of light emanated from Noah Ji’s branches above.
The light flickered and vanished in an instant, causing Ethan Chen to pause in his tracks.
Before he could react, a new string of memories surged into his mind.
Ethan Chen carefully contemplated these new memories, his eyes growing increasingly bright.
“This… this is a Normal-Grade top-tier combat skill!”
Ethan exclaimed in astonishment, his face beaming with joy!
No wonder he was so excited. According to the elders of the clan, during the clan’s heyday, such combat skills were plentiful, with even more powerful ones available.
But that was only during the clan’s golden age; he had only heard of them, never seen them.
Now, the clan had fallen into decline. Not to mention top-tier Normal-Grade combat skills, the clan didn’t even possess ordinary Normal-Grade skills, let alone top-tier ones.
It was clear how far the Chen Clan had fallen.
So, the combat skill he received in his mind filled him with ecstatic joy.
With this combat skill, the clan’s strength would undoubtedly rise to a new level. Especially for Blood Condensation Realm Warriors, having a combat skill would be like adding wings to a tiger, making their strength incomparable.
Originally, he had intended to ask about the current state of the Sacred Tree, but now it seemed unnecessary.
The Sacred Tree was in excellent condition!
After a round of worship, Ethan Chen hurriedly left the Ancestral Hall. He needed to record this combat skill immediately and pass it on to the clan’s warriors to enhance the clan’s strength.
Since the Sacred Tree had imparted this combat skill to him, it must have had this intention.
Indeed, Noah Ji had this very intention; otherwise, he wouldn’t have chosen to pass on the technique to Ethan Chen.
Grand Ancestor Long Fist: Normal-Grade top-tier combat skill (can be passed on once)
As Noah Ji looked at the remaining times he could pass on the skill, he pondered who should receive the final one.
Although Ethan Chen had already grasped the Grand Ancestor Long Fist and could transcribe it for other clan members to learn, Noah Ji’s method of passing on techniques was somewhat different.
Combat skills are not mastered overnight; they require personal understanding and practice to fully integrate and unleash their full power.
This process is not short. Those with talent might grasp the basics in a few days, while those without might take months.
For higher-grade combat skills, the time required is even longer.
Noah Ji’s method of passing on techniques essentially skipped the initial learning step, directly infusing the preliminary knowledge into the recipient’s mind, allowing them to grasp it quickly.
However, to master the combat skill more deeply, personal effort and continuous practice in real combat were still necessary.
Even so, it could save some warriors in the clan a lot of time.
Unfortunately, Noah Ji could only pass on a combat skill three times.
After some deep thought, Noah Ji decided not to use the final pass just yet. He wanted to see if there were other talented individuals in the clan to choose from.
…
“Grand Ancestor Long Fist?”
In his room, Oliver Chen closed his eyes to sense the newly acquired knowledge in his mind.
The sudden influx of memories had almost caused him to fall off the wall.
But after some sensing, Oliver Chen suddenly opened his eyes, a bright gleam flashing in his calm gaze.
A combat skill!
A Normal-Grade top-tier combat skill!
He had long wanted to see what a combat skill looked like, and he hadn’t expected to gain such a reward from visiting the Ancestral Hall today.
Oliver Chen knew very well where the combat skill in his mind came from. Other than the Sacred Tree, who else had such power?
Oliver Chen silently practiced the techniques of the Grand Ancestor Long Fist, and as he did, the Qi and blood in his body began to flow along his meridians.
Soon, the Qi and blood gathered in his palms along special meridians.
But he couldn’t release this Qi and blood.
In the next moment, Oliver Chen transformed his palm into a fist, and the Qi and blood exploded outward with his punch.
“Boom!”
A powerful force of Qi and blood shot out, accompanied by a loud explosion.
The door to his room shattered into splinters.
“What happened?”
“What’s going on?”
“It seems to have come from Oliver’s room. Let’s go check it out!”
The loud noise quickly attracted many patrolling clan members.
“It’s nothing, I accidentally broke the door while practicing.”
Oliver explained.
The clan members who arrived breathed a sigh of relief. With the clan war only a few days away, they were still on edge, fearing an attack on the clan.
Seeing the damage caused by Oliver’s punch, several clan members exclaimed:
“What level of strength does Oliver have?”
“He’s incredibly strong. When will I reach Oliver’s level?”
…
After some exclamations, the group quickly repaired the damaged door and resumed their patrol.
After they left, Oliver Chen silently looked at his fists, a hint of amazement in his eyes.
That punch had only used half of his Qi and blood, yet it had the power that usually required seventy percent.
The extra twenty percent was the enhancement brought by the combat skill.
If he could fully utilize the Grand Ancestor Long Fist with all his Qi and blood, he would be much stronger than before.
He could feel that his combat skill was just at the beginner level. The Qi and blood dispersed too much in that punch, causing the door to be destroyed.
If he could concentrate all the Qi and blood into a single point without any waste, he would truly have mastered the Grand Ancestor Long Fist.
Moreover, in actual combat, the Grand Ancestor Long Fist had many more variations.
Thinking about these details, Oliver’s eyes grew even brighter.
So this is a combat skill? It’s even stronger than he imagined!
But then Oliver frowned. Such a combat skill shouldn’t belong to him alone; it should belong to the entire clan. If all the clan’s warriors learned the Grand Ancestor Long Fist, their strength would greatly increase.
Considering that the Clan Chief was already resting, Oliver decided to report it first thing in the morning.
Having learned the combat skill, Oliver didn’t plan to sleep. Instead, he continued to silently practice the combat skill within his body, striving to master it as soon as possible.
In the Ancestral Hall, Noah Ji’s consciousness had already spread out. Oliver’s residence was not far from the hall.
Although the roots hadn’t spread to his room, Noah Ji could sense what had just happened.
Noah Ji had fully comprehended the combat skill after learning it, but seeing the punch Oliver had just thrown, he was quite satisfied.
Even though Oliver had learned the combat skill through Noah Ji’s passing on technique, it was clear from that punch that Oliver had talent in this area.
Given time, this child would surely become the pride of the clan.
It seemed that in addition to developing the clan, Noah Ji needed to focus on nurturing certain individuals.
