Atlas of Heaven and Man.

Chapter 624 Communication
As the others approached, Chen Chuan saw that this Tarru was only slightly shorter than himself, and the rhythm of his steps was very uniform. Combined with the skills he had occasionally displayed just now, it could be seen that this person was quite powerful.

Tarrou asked, "Sir, were you introduced by Mr. Zhuan?" Her voice was high and full of emotion, and it was obvious that she was a straightforward and cheerful person.

Chen Chuan said: "Yes, my name is Chen Chuan, hello Ms. Taru."

Tarrou laughed and said, "Just call me 'Tarrou'." She said, "Mr. Chen came here on the recommendation of Mr. Zhuan to enter the Rift for training, right?"

Chen Chuan nodded and said, "Not bad."

Tarrou said seriously, "Mr. Chen, I need to say this first. It is very dangerous to enter the rift, so I must first confirm that you have the strength to enter there."

The old man explained, "Mr. Chen, it's not that we don't trust you. Before, we didn't stop anyone from coming to the rift to practice. But something happened during the time of the last Tarru.

A fellow member of the sect came here secretly and claimed that he was recommended by an introducer. At that time, we believed him out of trust in our fellow members of the sect. However, due to his lack of strength, an accident occurred. Later, we heard that he even left the sect, and those who introduced him also retired.

The consequences of this incident were very serious, and old Tarrou felt very guilty about it, so he made this rule in the future. "

"I understand," Chen Chuan said. He looked at Tarrou. "Shall we start now?"

Tarrou was straightforward and had no habit of procrastinating. She said yes immediately, picked up the can of coconut milk beside her, drank a few sips, wiped her mouth, and walked to the open space on the side.

After standing there, she tied her clothes tighter, then took a stance and tried to stretch her hands back and forth. Afterimages were left between her fingers and palms, and several crisp explosions were heard in the air.

She would not be careless when dealing with someone recommended by a fighter and would take it very seriously.

Chen Chuan put the Xuejun Knife aside, walked out of the corridor of the thatched hut, and after reaching the open space, he moved around a bit.

This Tarru is quite powerful, but he could see just now that although he has practiced spiritual cultivation, he has not yet cultivated to the level of mind strength. In this case, there is actually no suspense in this battle.

But this is actually quite remarkable.

You have to know that in the central city, even with sufficient resources, many strong players at this age have not yet embarked on the path of spiritual practice. This person lives on an island, where communication and resource acquisition are not easy. It seems that he has relied mostly on his own talents to get to this point.

It was obvious that the two of them were going to compete. Although the children and young people dispersed, they did not go far. At this moment, they were all excitedly surrounding them, looking forward to the fight between the two.

But it was very subtle. Although everyone present was emotionally inclined towards Taru and hoped that she would win, at this time they inexplicably felt that Chen Chuan was the one who would win. This awkward feeling made them very uncomfortable.

On the contrary, Taru was not affected at all. After Chen Chuan came up, she performed the single-flow pavilion etiquette to the latter, and then got into a stance. As soon as she got into the stance, she entered a state of extreme concentration.

Chen Chuan clasped his hands together, then assumed a free-hand fighting stance.

The two sides confronted each other for a moment, then Tarrou shouted, and his figure flashed. He instantly crossed a distance of more than 20 meters, came in front of Chen Chuan, and kicked him.

The kick was swift, decisive and powerful.

Chen Chuan raised his hand to block it accurately. He immediately felt a force coming at him, but soon after, another force followed from behind.

Double power?

Generally, double strength is only used at critical moments, because the use of too many techniques will slow down one's attack rhythm, which is almost inevitable. It is usually only used when the opportunity arises, and it is rare to use it right at the beginning.

However, he immediately discovered that this force was not that simple. After this force entered the body, the alienated tissues in the body produced a slight sense of stagnation.

He immediately understood that this force was not intended to be lethal, but to attack the alienated organization. If the alienated organization did not function smoothly, then any movement and force technique would be awkward.

The first force should be used to establish a connection between the two alienated organizations, rather than to attack the opponent. Then the second force will cause a certain resonance between the two alienated organizations, thus putting the opponent into a passive position.

This is a very clever force, but it is not entirely based on skill. One can feel that the power in Tarrou's palm is strong. If such power is trained into mental strength, people who are unaware of the details may be suppressed from the beginning. If they can't think of a countermeasure, there will be almost no chance of fighting.

He is now exploring his own mental strength, which has also given him some inspiration.

Tarrou kicked again at this time. The characteristic of Danliukan's combat is that once started, it will not stop, but this kick was still blocked, and Chen Chuan did not feel the slightest delay.

She realized that such an attack was ineffective, but she was not discouraged. Instead, she shouted loudly, turned around, and slashed with her arm, which increased her strength by several points. She decisively used the secret method and entered a state of explosion. Chen Chuan nodded secretly. This decision was correct. Many people still insisted on the same way in the next attack after being frustrated in their own offensive methods. One reason was path dependence, and the other was that their self-confidence did not allow them to give up so easily.

But what you don’t know is that for an experienced fighter, if your offensive rhythm and skills are almost the same as last time, it is almost impossible to achieve better results than last time. There must be something different, and improving speed and strength is undoubtedly the best way.

Tarrou did this very well; most people wouldn't be so decisive.

At this time, the edge of the knife was chopping towards Chen Chuan's left forehead. Although the speed and strength increased, it was still slow in his eyes, so he raised it lightly to block it.

Due to the sudden increase in strength, the control of strength could not maintain perfect coordination, and the clothes on Tarrou's arm burst open, revealing a muscular wheat-colored arm.

This time, when the attack failed, she did not continue, but stopped, revealing an expression of great admiration. She stepped back a few steps and saluted Chen Chuan.

"Mr. Chen, your fighting skills are far superior to mine. There is no doubt that you can enter the rift to practice."

Chen Chuan clasped his fists and returned the greeting. In fact, he could have continued because at least the winner had not been decided yet. As the heir of a government official, and in front of many disciples of the government official, he would at least consider the other party's face as a guest.

But he is obviously a person with a very simple and straightforward way of thinking. One is one, two is two, and he does not have any extra thoughts. So it is normal for him to retreat when he feels he cannot win.

The old man came up and said, "Mr. Chen, you have come from a long way. Do you need to rest before going to the rift?"

Chen Chuanshuo said, "That's not necessary. I've been resting on Rowan Island for two days. Now I just hope to start practicing as soon as possible."

Tarrou said readily: "Okay, Mr. Chen, please follow me."

The old man bowed and said, "Tarrou, I will take care of this place while you are gone."

Chen Chuan first went to retrieve the Xuejun Sword, nodded to the old man, and followed Taru.

After walking out of the open space, the trees in front of them became sparse. The two walked along a long and narrow passage and came to the edge of a sea cliff. Below them were rolling waves that constantly hit the cliff.

Tarrou stood at the edge, letting the sea breeze ruffle her hair. She said, "If you jump down from here, you can reach the rift. However, the rift has become a little unstable in recent days, and there are signs of expansion. This situation has not been seen for a long time. I have never encountered it before, and my teacher has not told me about it, so be careful when you go in."

"Is it unstable..."

Chen Chuan seemed to have thought of something, and asked, "Can I ask when this started?"

"It's all very clear," said Tarrou. "It all started at the end of the year before last."

Chen Chuan nodded slightly. This time period was very close to the time when the crack appeared in the World Ring. So the change in the crack might have been affected by that.

However, for his practice, this is not necessarily a bad thing. It means that his spirit can be directly connected to the other side of the world, just like when the sky gate was opened.

Tarrou said, "The instability of the rift will also affect the surrounding seas. In the past two years, many fighters and trained people have appeared outside our island and Rowan Island. They are active around the sea. Perhaps they have discovered something unusual and are instructed by the forces behind them to look for the existence of the rift. After all, our Danliu Pavilion has been here since the old days, and everyone knows that we had the rift in the past."

Chen Chuan recalled the tremors in the sea water when he came here, and those people who were looking for the ring on the sea. Perhaps they were not looking for any ring, but were using this excuse to find out the real reason.

Tarrou said, "I'm not really worried about these people. The location of the rift is very hidden. No matter how hard they try, they won't be able to find it. Even if they come to the island, I can deal with them. I'm more worried about An Yao Hall."

"An Yao Pavilion?"

Chen Chuan's eyes moved slightly, and he asked, "Is it An Yao Hall, one of the three bloodline inheritances in the foreign land?"

Tarru said: "Yes, Danliu-kan and Anyao-kan were originally taught by the same master. Anyao-kan originated from Hongfa Master's second disciple He Miyue, and our Danliu-kan originated from the eldest disciple Zhuantuo.

The two of them each inherited a part of Master Hongfa's secret teachings, but the secret teachings between the two halls can complement each other, and each covets the other's inheritance. In a battle more than a hundred years ago, the last fist master of our Danliu Hall died at the hands of the sword master of Anyao Hall, and has never recovered since then."
