Chapter 212: Tian Gang Method: Returning Wind and Fire
Cao Jie patted Qin Ming's palm, smiled and said, "I didn't mean to show off my power to you, but I have recently cultivated a magical power and have made some progress, so I passively suppressed your soul. Brother Qin Ming, are you okay?"

When everyone heard this, they pricked up their ears and asked happily, "What kind of magical power did you master, brother, to subdue the Thunderbolt with just one hand?"

In the past two years, although "Thunderfire" Qin Ming has never captured any mountain stronghold, his strength has been recognized by everyone in Liangshan.

In order to resist Qin Ming's offensive, Cao Jie arranged two generals, Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi, to be stationed at Erlong Mountain. They served as a mobile team to support Taohua Mountain and Qingfeng Mountain.

Although Pei Xuan, Yang Lin, Li Zhong, and Zhou Tong were weak in combat, they had the advantage of the terrain and the defensive fortifications designed by Wang Lun.

Enough to protect yourself.

What's more, there is Hua Rong, the commander of the camp, who is secretly supporting him.

Only with such layers of defense could they resist Qin Ming's attack and make him return empty-handed time and time again.

The only two people who could confront him head-on on the battlefield were Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi.

Now Cao Jie can subdue Thunderbolt Fire with just one magical power. What a terrifying power!
Liu Tang had always been a personal guard following Cao Jie, so he knew something about it, but he didn't say anything.

How can I reveal Cao Jie's true strength?

Although the others knew that Cao Jie had cultivated the three elements of Jing, Qi and Shen, they had not expected that in such a short period of time, the young man who was once famous in Shandong for his righteousness and medical skills had grown to such a powerful level.

Facing everyone's hopeful gazes, Cao Jie no longer concealed the truth and said with a smile, "Years ago, at Dulonggang, I entered the sixth-grade Sun Travel Realm, and I made a breakthrough in the magical power of Returning Wind and Returning Fire."

Cao Jie said it easily. In fact, the small success of this magical power was not due to the improvement of realm, but the upgrade of [Demon Star]'s talent.

Disrupt the will of heaven and turn the world upside down.

He succeeded in breaking through by robbing the experience package that Lady of the West passed to Song Jiang across the world.

If he didn't have the talent of a demon star, it would be difficult for him to achieve anything even if he was given another ten years.

The only one who was injured was Song Gongming. It was a pity that he, the true spokesperson of the Queen Mother of the West in the underworld, had fallen to become Cao Jie's private tutor.

Cao Jie will not give up until he has taken all of his divine books and Taoist magic.

"Sixth-grade Sun Tour Realm?"

Lu Zhishen was speechless and said, "Brother just started practicing the Soul Formation last year. It's only been a year, but he has surpassed me."

Qin Ming turned his head and looked at Master Lu, feeling bitter.

I thought I knew this "Vajra Master" well enough, but I didn't expect that he was also a master who practiced in the three realms.

"It was a coincidence that I was able to break through, and the method I practiced is far inferior to Zhishen's! Your angry Vajra method has extraordinary combat power. Only Wu Song's Mingwang inheritance can compete with it."

"I can't suppress Brother Qin Ming with just one hand. Brother, what magical power do you have this time?"

One of the Thirty-Six Tiangang Methods is Return Wind and Return Fire, which allows the blowing wind to flow back and shrink the burning flames.

Thunderbolt is naturally fire.

Natural nemesis Qin Ming!

"hiss!"

After hearing Cao Jie's explanation, Qin Ming took a deep breath. This feeling of being controlled by others was not pleasant at all, so he clasped his fists and said:
"Brother, your magical power is really powerful. I, Qin Ming, have an unwelcome request."

"We are all brothers, just say whatever you want to say."

"I want to truly experience my brother's magical powers."

Qin Ming is a martial artist and knows how to overcome fear.

Face the things that fear your soul over time and many times, and you will eventually overcome them.

"Oh!" Cao Jie was also itching to try his hand. In the past, when he experimented with this magical power, he just used some ordinary flames. Now that Qin Ming, the Thunderbolt, took the initiative to come and practice with him, he was naturally very happy.

"Brother Qin Ming, you make your move first."

"Then I am offended!"

Everyone made way for a large area. Boom!
Qin Ming circulated the Qi in his Dantian, and his special true Qi flowed through his eight extraordinary meridians. In an instant, blazing flames burst out from his whole body, and he turned into a fire man made entirely of flames.

Of course, that is not real fire, but the manifestation of the soul composed of Qi.

"What a Thunderbolt!"

"We are either ferocious beasts like tigers and leopards, or ancient warriors, but Qin Ming is actually a flame soul. It's rare in the world!"

"If Brother Qin Ming had taken the path of conceiving a god, with such a life soul, practicing the magical power of fire would be unimaginable. What a pity! Brother Qin Ming is practicing refining essence and nourishing qi."

Refining essence and nourishing qi are inseparable, while conceiving spirit depends on talent.

Qin Ming, a rough guy, obviously has no talent in this area.

"elder brother!"

The Thunderbolt Fire, who had transformed into a fireman, said in a muffled voice: "Be careful of my Thunderbolt Fire. Once the true Qi explodes, it has the power of high temperature burning."

Cao Jie smiled nonchalantly and said, "Brother Qin Ming, go ahead and use your skills. I'll also try to return the wind and fire."

"excuse me!"

Qin Ming took a deep breath, with strong wind whistling around him. This breath seemed to suck in all the air, all the breath of his whole life. His entire chest swelled up strangely in an instant!
In an instant, the flames on Qin Ming's body instantly formed a force that soared into the sky.

It tumbled and roared, and even formed an enormous fire giant that was ten feet tall.

As we all know, anything to do with "fire" usually means violence and ferocity. Pilihuo exerts his soul's true energy at all costs, and in just a few seconds, the raging fire spreads across the prairie.

He threw a ball of true Qi onto the rocks on the side.

As the dazzling fireball landed on the ground, there was a loud "bang" and the entire ground was shaking violently.

Looking at its power, it is no weaker than the explosive power of nitroglycerin.

Not only that, the exploding flames and true energy flew everywhere, shining red light, and it was still burning after landing, with no sign of going out for a while.

The only flaw is that the pre-casting time is too long, making it difficult to use in life-and-death battles on the battlefield.

In a life-and-death battle, at a critical moment, using true Qi is not as effective as hitting the head with a mace.

People follow the earth, the earth follows the sky, the heaven follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature.

Mana power comes from having a method first, then having power. When the Tiangang method is mastered, the method will be in your heart for a lifetime, and you can use the spiritual power in your body to connect the heaven and the earth, and you will have supernatural powers and great power.

Returning the wind and returning the fire is almost performed instinctively.

This is exactly the reason why Cao Jie suppressed Qin Ming without actively activating it.

The heroes saw that the burning true Qi was constantly extinguished as Cao Jie approached.

Qin Ming bowed again and threw a ball of hot Qi towards Cao Jie.

But before it could get close, the flame was like being thrown into water, annihilated and dissipated, as if it was wiped out.

"hiss!"

Qin Ming took a deep breath, suppressed the trembling of his soul, and watched Cao Jie approach within ten feet of him.

"Let's go back!"

Cao Jie stretched out his hand, took two steps forward, and brought Qin Ming within the range of his magical powers.

In an instant, the thunder fire on Qin Ming's body was visibly dissipating, and his true energy retreated back into his dantian, and his soul trembled as it returned to his body.

A feeling of powerlessness instantly spread throughout my body.

Qin Ming felt hopeless!

He knew that he would be exploited by Cao's brother for the rest of his life.
