If their first meeting with Sun Chan Hall had been a "rebirth" that cured his ailments and set him on the path of the Martial Dao...
...then this time, Sun Chan Hall had truly, genuinely saved his life.
In fact, it was only now, when he put himself in the other’s shoes, that he could truly appreciate the weight of Sun Chan Hall’s kindness back then.
To his impoverished self back then, ten thousand Imperial Coins had been an unimaginably vast sum.
But now, as a Fifth-level Martial Artist, ten thousand Imperial Coins were truly nothing to him.
He knew full well that for a being of Sun Chan Hall’s level, ten thousand coins probably couldn’t even buy a single screw from his power armor.
That so-called "guidance fee" was basically the same as charging nothing at all.
Perhaps it had just been a small test Sun Chan Hall had casually set up to filter for the "sincere of heart."
"It’s nothing."
Sun Chan Hall waved his hand, signaling that there was no need for such formalities.
He turned and walked back to the dilapidated "Extreme Martial Arts Hall" sign, gazing at it quietly.
He reached out and gently lifted the sign, which was covered in cracks and bullet holes, from the rubble. Then, he carefully hung it back upon the collapsed doorframe.
Immediately after, he extended his right hand.
His palm began to form a series of strange movements that looked incredibly ancient and profound.
And as he performed these actions, Qin Feng clearly saw the dilapidated sign begin to change before his very eyes!
The free-floating Greenskin biomass energy in the surrounding air;
The scattered, high-quality metal materials in the ruins;
Even the intangible, most fundamental Spiritual Particles between heaven and earth...
All matter and energy, as if drawn by an invisible hand, began to converge endlessly toward the sign!
The cracks on the sign rapidly healed.
The bullet holes were swiftly filled with new material.
The faded characters began to glow, bright and dazzling once more.
It grew newer and stronger, as if reversing time and the laws of physics!
Qin Feng stared blankly, watching Sun Chan Hall’s hand movements, which seemed slow but were suffused with an infinite, Dao-like rhythm.
In that instant, it was as if a bolt of lightning had struck his mind!
Because every action, every gesture Sun Chan Hall was making, perfectly matched the profound diagrams recorded in the General Outline of the *Ten-Complete Hand*—one of the ultimate techniques of the Ultramarines Chapter that he had never been able to grasp!
In that moment, it was as if the world had gone silent for Qin Feng.
The constant roar of explosions from the world-ending battle that had just occurred; the bloody earth beneath his feet, made of Greenskin corpses and building debris; even his own broken body, exhausted to its absolute limit...
All of it completely vanished from his perception.
In his eyes, in his heart, in his very soul, all that remained was Sun Chan Hall’s right hand, dancing slowly, filled with an infinite, rhythmic grace.
The hand did not move quickly.
But every turn, every pinch, every extension seemed to contain the most fundamental universal truths of "creation" and "restoration."
When he brought his five fingers together in a gentle wipe, Qin Feng could almost see countless shattered molecules being rearranged and reassembled by an invisible hand.
When he flipped his wrist and grasped at the air, Qin Feng could almost feel the free-floating, fundamental Spiritual Particles of the world being forcibly given form, coalescing into new matter.
’This is the *Ten-Complete Hand*!’
’This is the supreme "Nourishing Technique," personally taught by the Black Hole Level Powerhouse Zhou Xiong and hailed as a strategic treasure of the Empire!’
It was no longer the cold, incomprehensible diagrams and text in Qin Feng’s mind.
In Sun Chan Hall’s hands, it became a living, breathing Nourishing Technique filled with supreme power. Everything became crystal clear!
Qin Feng was utterly captivated by Master Sun’s movements.
He fell into a state of profound enlightenment, completely mesmerized and unable to pull himself away.
He forgot the time, the place, and even himself.
His spirit resonated with Sun Chan Hall’s movements in a profound way.
In his mind, the once-obscure principles and incantations of the *Ten-Complete Hand* seemed to be injected with life, beginning to flow and operate automatically and with perfect clarity.
Sun Chan Hall’s casting also began to gradually change.
At first, the target of his "Ten-Complete Hand" was still the dilapidated sign.
But upon noticing that Qin Feng had entered a state of enlightenment, a gratified smile appeared on Sun Chan Hall’s honest face.
His casting hand slowly moved away from the sign.
Then, it began to treat Qin Feng’s body as its new "target."
He didn’t directly touch Qin Feng’s body.
Instead, in a "hand-in-hand" manner of teaching, he began to guide the energy of the *Ten-Complete Hand* that was already circulating on its own within Qin Feng’s body.
His every move was like a perfect and precise demonstration for Qin Feng’s benefit.
