BXBX NOVEL Chapter 69 69: Endless Chained Fingers
After spending the whole night training Yoze and Jewel decided they would go home to rest before coming later that day.
Eating a good meal from his father and taking a long nap, Yoze and Jewel returned to the training ground and went back to training in the evening.
When they arrived Jewel returned to training her Jade Armor body cultivation she remembered why she stopped training it. She had reached a roadblock trying to break through to the next level and become a second-rate Martial artist with inner vigor.
But her love-and-hate relationship with the art was reinvigorated after sensing that she had once again begun to make progress with this torture training. She felt that she could break through to the next few weeks if everything went well.
However, she felt that her progress was unbelievably slow when compared to Yoze who was training right next to her. Hearing constant sonic booms made her wonder if she would lose her hearing one day due to this.
Not only that, Jewel had to bear the growing pressure coming out of Yoze\'s body. Only during periods when Yoze\'s pressure disappeared would she be able to breathe a sigh of relief.
This became a daily occurrence for Jewel as a week passed by. She had been feeling her body becoming tenser as if there was an unknown energy trying to come out. It was a vague feeling but Jewel knew that within the coming weeks, she would break through at last.
Meanwhile, Yoze was standing still as constant sounds of sonic booms began to overlap each other. His skin was redder than a ruby and the intense heat coming from his body warped the air. Yoze was punching so fast that Jewel couldn\'t see his attacks.
[Twin Fists (Level 4: 190%)
For the past week, Yoze had been putting his main focus on breaking through Twin Fists but found out that it was much harder to break the limits of such a simple technique as Twin Fists. There were fewer concepts that Yoze could expand and shift his focus to.
Twin Fists were one of the most common and simple martial arts techniques that people could acquire. It focused on creating a combo chain of attacks to overwhelm and overpower their opponents. Due to that it only relied on making the user send out more punches. The more punches that one could send the less likely your opponent would be able to survive.
At its peak Twin Fists was a good technique for second-rate martial artists and could form a chain of up to 70 koi fists. But for Yoze that wasn\'t enough and he broke this simple technique\'s limits and could form a chain of hundreds of koi fists.
However, even then when Yoze met strong enemies he rarely used Twin Fists in its regular form and utilized Twin Blood Fists to fight. Because when in a battle there wasn\'t going to be an opportunity to unleash hundreds of punches. He either defeated his enemies using the increased lethality that Twin Blood Fists brought to the table or won because he was just much stronger than his enemies.
After reaching Twin Fists peak once more Yoze had thought long and hard about whether he should start looking for stronger offensive techniques. But he shelved that idea because he felt Twin Fists\' flaw could be resolved if he broke its limits again.
It had been a week and Yoze was able to push Twin Fists much further and increased his combo chain number much higher however he hadn\'t sensed a change in the essence of the technique until now.
Yoze stopped his using Twin Fists as he knew that his progress had finally stalled. He needed to change something with Twin Fists to be qualified to push it further and reach the next level.
Seeing that stalled and couldn\'t make any more progress Yoze was about to try and use his test Blood Fist to help him forcefully break through but he suddenly noticed that Jewel was practicing her fist technique in her corner.
Her fist technique was much more deadly compared to Twin Fists. From his observations, her technique aimed to concentrate her power into one attack that pierced through her enemy\'s weak points.
As Yoze watched Jewel train his mind raced as he remembered when he reached level 4 of his Big Golem body cultivation method he was able to concentrate his inner vigor anywhere in his body.
"Both Big Golem and Jewel\'s fist techniques take the concept of concentrating force into a small area to increase their user\'s power. What if I start doing the same with Twin Fists?" Feeling that he had a stroke of inspiration Yoze returned to his training to attempt to transform Twin Fists.
[Twin Fists (Level 4: 191%)
A few hours passed by before Yoze was able to transform his punches into chops while also carrying the same force but even greater power. Yoze knew that he was heading in the right direction and continued to train even after sunset.
Due to that night having a new moon, Yoze would have been training in the darkness if it wasn\'t for the lanterns that Jewel lit up. But Yoze was too focused on improving Twin Fists.
[Twin Fists (Level 4: 199%)
Progress with Twin Fists was much slower compared to Mindless Legs but Yoze was able to now concentrate the power of his Twin Fists into just his fingers.
Whether it was Bull Fist, Bear Fist, or even Koi Fists could be done with a finger while not becoming weaker on the contrary they were even more powerful compared to their regular counterparts.
"Boom!"
[Twin Fists (Level 5: 1%)
With a single flick of his finger, Yoze caused a sonic boom that would have been able to pierce right through any of Blood Master\'s Blood Armor.
"I finally can use Twin Fists on strong enemies without having to always rely on Twin Blood Fists and strain my body."
