Lin Beichen discovered that the duplicate he created did not seem to know how to draw the Tai Chi Diagram, which meant that the so-called duplicate could only mimic the same moves but could not capture their essence at all.
It might be fine for ordinary moves, but once it involved something that required understanding, the duplicate couldn’t handle it. With this thought, Lin Beichen already had a strategy to defeat the opponent.
Boom! Bang!
In just a breath’s time, Lin Beichen collided with the duplicate. However, this time it wasn’t an even match; the so-called duplicate was directly knocked flying by Lin Beichen.
The duplicate flew back, crashing into three trees before finally stopping. Seeing this, Lin Beichen knew his idea was correct!
"I want to use this move. Let’s see how you will respond to it."
A playful smile appeared on Lin Beichen’s face. He was sliding his hands continuously, then quickly formed seals. As he completed the final action, Lin Beichen suddenly shouted the words "Human King!"

It turned out that during his leisure time on Dragon Tiger Mountain, Lin Beichen would read the valuable texts within the Daoist Sect, which recorded the sealing techniques of various famous "seals." Because he favored the words "Human King," Lin Beichen internalized the enlightenment of the Human King Seal.
In the Daoist Sect, the seals allowed one’s power to conform to certain rules of the Dao to enhance one’s strength. However, in the modern world, no matter how powerful the seals once were, they had merely become hand gestures.
But Lin Beichen didn’t think like that. In his view, cultivators still existed. He believed that cultivators were also a form of immortal practitioners, only taking a different path.
Therefore, he borrowed some understandings from the Daoist Sect to broaden his own path of cultivation. After all, such paths could now only be found through scattered clues within the ancient texts of the Daoist Sect!
At this moment, Lin Beichen, who had formed the Human King Seal, imbued the seal with the power of the Point Element. The duplicate, who had just stood up, mimicked Lin Beichen’s hand movements but did not form the seal in the process.
"This move will end your life right here!"
Through this battle, Lin Beichen gained further enlightenment concerning the Daoist Sect. Now, in his eyes, the so-called duplicate no longer posed any challenge to him.
The only fate awaiting this duplicate was... vanishing!
"Human King Seal!"
Lin Beichen shouted, once again channeling the power of the Gold Element to enhance the strength of his body to the extreme!
It was said that the Human King Seal was a seal left by the Human King during ancient times. Although in the era called the End of the Dharma Era the seal could no longer display its true might, in Jiang Chen’s hands, it could still exhibit some power, albeit just a fraction.
This clash made no extraneous noise—only the sound of a body hitting the ground. The chest of the duplicate, struck by the Human King Seal, bore an ancient mark.
Lin Beichen didn’t know what this ancient mark represented, but he forcibly imprinted it in his mind. As the battle concluded, a cross-legged Lin Bei finally opened his eyes.
This movement also eased the hearts of Song Xiangdong and others who had been watching Lin Beichen.
"That little rascal!"
Song Xiangdong finally smiled. Seeing Lin Beichen drenched in sweat, although he had no idea what Lin had just experienced, he was certain it must have been quite a trial.
"I bet you, once this kid comes back, testing his strength will show significant improvement."
Fu Daoyi’s lips curled into a faint smile. He saw the slightly excited look on Lin Beichen’s face.
Through their recent interactions, Fu Daoyi could tell that Lin Beichen was generally a calm person. Although he wouldn’t stay expressionless in the face of a mountain collapsing before him, he at least remained unfazed, not easily pleased or sad.
But now, he showed such an expression, full of proud excitement, which made Fu Daoyi firmly believe that Lin Beichen must have made considerable gains this time!
"You don’t need to say it; I know."
Song Xiangdong glared at Fu Daoyi. Actually, he had noticed what Fu Daoyi observed as well. He just didn’t expect Fu Daoyi to speak up first.
"I still maintain this: Lin Beichen is one of our Dragon Tiger Mountain people."
Watching the serious expression on Song Xiangdong’s face as he spoke, Fu Daoyi recalled the first time Song Xiangdong had spoken to him like this.
But after thinking it over, Fu Daoyi understood why Song Xiangdong was so insistent.
After all, Lin Beichen was extraordinarily important. Song Xiangdong wanted to replicate multiple Lin Beichens.
Even if it couldn’t be a perfect replication, even achieving one percent would significantly enhance the Dragon Country’s military and overall national power.
An atomic bomb, even at one percent or one-thousandth its power, wasn’t something an ordinary handgun or machine gun could compare to. When the quality difference is vast, quantity becomes inconsequential.
But once Lin Beichen entered the Daoist Sect or Dragon Tiger Mountain, it would be much harder for Song Xiangdong to have Lin do anything. Moreover, Dragon Tiger Mountain itself wasn’t monolithic, which is why many people sought connections with the security bureau.
