Chapter 155: Power of the Grandmaster_1
Actually, Transformation, referred to as "Hua", is simply an upgrade of Inner Strength, its power is still being emitted from the inside, but the key lies in the word "Hua" ("Transform")!
"Hua" conveys the idea of transformation.
The masters of Inner Strength possess tremendous power when exerting it, yet they are not always able to control it fully. However, Transformation Grandmasters have honed their Inner Strength to perfection, with every move carrying the force of Qian Jun and displaying infinite variations.
At the level of Transformation Grandmasters, there is often no need to stick rigidly to specific moves, and every palm strike or punch carries possible transformations.
Furthermore, Transformation Grandmasters have keen senses, able to perceive external objects and forces in relation to their bodies. It means that even if a Transformation Grandmaster is blind, they can still react to someone else’s punch by leveraging this perceptual ability.
One could say that Transformation Grandmasters have just got a whiff of the threshold of a cultivator’s Divine Sense.
But it’s just the threshold, far away from that very door, and compared to an Inner Strength Master, a Transformation Grandmaster has a more acutely perceptive sense and greatly enhanced reaction speed.
Also, once one becomes a Transformation Grandmaster in martial arts, one’s lifespan will greatly lengthened.
For the masters of Inner Strength, their bodies will start to gradually weaken past the age of sixty if they do not break through to the Grandmaster realm, and their Inner Strength will gradually decline, becoming weaker and weaker.
In contrast, even when the Transformation Grandmasters reach the age of seventy, they are still just as vigorous, and they don’t start to decline until they are eighty. If there isn’t any hidden injury, living past a hundred is not a problem.
Ren Qianzhong, although also in his sixties, still maintains his strength unabated, possessing tremendous power.
