Dark room.
It was very dark. There was obviously a lamp on the table and the room was not big, but it was still dark.
This is a weird room.
At this moment, four people appeared in the room, one was a masked man in black clothes, and the other three were Wang Cheng, Yang Si and the old man.
Wang Cheng cupped his fists towards the masked man in black and said, "Thank you, Miss, for saving me!"
"Did you recognize him?" the masked man sighed.
She took off her mask, revealing her beautiful face. The beauty mark on Liu Ye's eyebrows was none other than Xu Ya.
Wang Cheng smiled and said nothing. Naturally, he would not say that he had a clairvoyant eye. The black cloth on your face was no different than if you were not wearing it. Otherwise, a disaster of blood and fire would be inevitable.
Xu Ya looked at Wang Cheng and said, "Thank you for your help. My father is much better now."
She remembered something again, took out a black cloth package from her sleeve and handed it to Wang Cheng, saying, "Here's this for you!"
Wang Cheng took the package and heard her say again: "You stay here and don't wander around. The officers and soldiers in this place won't be able to find it for a while."
After explaining this, she swayed and disappeared into the room.
"Hey! Wait!"
Wang Cheng wanted to stop Xu Ya and ask her why she happened to appear outside the prison and rescue him. He had a lot of questions waiting to be answered.
Unfortunately, he is gone.
Wang Cheng looked down at the black cloth package in his hand again, and opened it out of curiosity, revealing an ancient book with a cowhide cover and the words "Golden Body Secret" written on it.
The old man came over to take a look and said: "It's this skill! Boy, that little girl is very interested. You have just entered the Qi and Blood Realm, and this skill is just right for you. There is no other skill that can compare to it. It will make your muscles and bones more perfect!"
"The realm of muscles and bones is perfect? Isn't there only Dacheng?" Yang Si interjected from the side.
"You little bald donkey knows nothing!" The old man slapped Yang Si on the head and said: "Ordinary martial artists only know great achievements. If they only pursue great achievements in each realm, then he will never be able to pursue the highest realm of martial arts!"
Wang Cheng knew that the old man in front of him was not simple, so he said: "I haven't asked my senior for his name yet!"
The old man's eyes flickered, and after a moment, he said three words in a complicated tone: "Zhang Xiaosheng."
"It's you!" Yang Si screamed, with a sound that could pierce a person's eardrum.
Wang Cheng stared at him and said, "You must be sick!"
"You... you don't know? This is... this is..." Yang Si grabbed Wang Cheng's wrist and couldn't finish his excited words.
Wang Cheng took Yang Si's hand away and said, "Speak slowly!"
Yang Si said with admiration on his face: "Zhang Xiaosheng, a man with an iron sword who has defeated invincible opponents all over the world. He is nicknamed "Zhang Wudi" and is known as the person who will definitely be crowned king within forty years. He is a living legend!"
He said, "He didn't start practicing martial arts until he was fourteen. He became a warrior at sixteen, a martial artist at nineteen, a grandmaster at twenty-five, and a grand master at twenty-eight. From then on, he has no rival among his peers. Three He mysteriously disappeared when he was twelve years old..."
Speaking of this, he suddenly looked at the old man and asked suspiciously: "Are you really Zhang Xiaosheng? Although Zhang Xiaosheng has disappeared for almost twenty years, he is at most fifty years old, not as old as you?"
"I didn't expect anyone to remember a disabled person like me!" The old man smiled mockingly.
Yang Si looked the old man up and down, still doubting: "Zhang Xiaosheng is said to be able to become a strong King of Martial Arts at the age of forty, so you don't look like that?"
"Stop saying a few words!"
Wang Cheng slapped Yang Si on the head. Although he had never heard of the name "Zhang Xiaosheng", he estimated that the old man in front of him must be. There must be some unknown things in this.
Zhang Xiaosheng looked into the void, shook his head and sighed: "How can there be any invincibility in this world? No matter how strong you are, you can't defeat the human heart!"
"Senior, please continue talking about the martial arts realm!" Wang Cheng humbly asked for advice. He currently has a weak foundation in martial arts. It would be great if he could have a great master to guide him.
Yang Si also asked for advice humbly. Zhang Xiaosheng looked at his "dog-licking" look and slapped him on the head, saying: "Hurry up and help me sit down!"
As soon as he came up, he was in a high position and said: "There are three realms in martial arts. The lower realm is to refine and transform qi. The martial arts disciples, warriors and martial arts masters known to the world are all in this realm."
"Martial disciples, third-rate warriors, this realm trains the muscles, bones and skin, and everyone can get started. The sound of tiger and leopard thunder is for the muscles and bones to be small, and the muscles and bones to sing together is for the great achievements, so this realm is called the muscles and bones realm. It is the martial arts It is the realm of foundation building, so the world also calls warriors in this realm martial disciples.”
"The sinews, bones and skin are integrated, which should be the state of perfect sinews and bones, right?" Wang Cheng remembered what he had just glanced at when he turned over the "Golden Body Art".
"good!"
Zhang Xiaosheng nodded and continued: "Ordinary warriors start to pursue the next level when they reach the great achievement of muscles and bones, but in fact they fall behind. Only when the muscles, bones and skin are integrated and the foundation of the most powerful martial arts is built, can they have the opportunity to pursue the highest level of martial arts!"
"Hmph! Many warriors don't value the realm of muscles and bones. This is their shallow understanding. Each realm of warriors was discovered by predecessors after thousands or even tens of thousands of years. Naturally, it has its own profound meaning."
Zhang Xiaosheng specially reminded Wang Cheng: "Your boy has just become a warrior, so it is not too late to practice the "Golden Body Art" now. In fact, the muscles, bones and skin are integrated, and he already has the strength of an ordinary warrior."
Wang Cheng nodded, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and nine years of compulsory education is not for nothing.
"What about me? I have reached the realm of muscles and bones!" Yang Si pointed at himself.
"You?" Zhang Xiaosheng sneered: "The essence is not strong, the energy and blood are weak, and if you are addicted to women, you will never be able to improve in this life! You should give up this idea as soon as possible and look for opportunities to enter the next realm!"
Yang Si almost choked to death at these words. Just now, he heard him say that his muscles and bones were perfect and he was pursuing the highest realm of martial arts. When it came to him, he decided to give up this idea as soon as possible. He pointed at Wang Cheng and said angrily: "Why can he?"
Zhang Xiaosheng said: "Just because of his years of life and death training! Just because of his excellent bones! Just because of his extraordinary understanding!"
"Bah! You said that he has been practicing life and death for many years, and I believe it, but why do you say that he has excellent bones and extraordinary understanding?" Yang Si made a disgusted look.
"Snapped!"
Yang Si received another slap on the head, but it was from Wang Cheng. Wang Cheng said: "What? Why can't I have excellent bones and extraordinary understanding?"
Zhang Xiaosheng saw the fire clearly and said: "What a pity! You started too late, otherwise your current strength will definitely not be worse than that little girl just now!"
He then said to Yang Si: "Don't be discouraged, little bald donkey. With me training you, there is still great hope to become a grandmaster in the future!"
Yang Si was overjoyed when he heard this, climbed up the pole, knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Disciple, pay homage to the master!"
"Forget it, I'll accept you as my registered disciple!" Zhang Xiaosheng waved his hand and looked at Wang Cheng, but Wang Cheng seemed as if he hadn't heard anything.
He didn't know what the other party meant, but he already had a master. Even if he wanted to become a disciple, he should at least inform the master, but his master had been taken away by Ninghou's people.
Zhang Xiaosheng did not press for it and continued: "Warriors, second-rate warriors, this realm trains Qi and blood, so it is called the Qi-blood realm. When the Qi and blood are full, you are the entry level, and your strength exceeds three thousand kilograms."
Yang Si was surprised at this time and said: "Strengthening over three thousand kilograms is just the entry level? Isn't it Dacheng?"
Wang Cheng was also puzzled. The strength of three thousand kilograms was beyond his knowledge. I wonder if Li Cunxiao and Xiang Yu in history could do it. Is it possible that there are still people with more than ten thousand kilograms of strength?
Zhang Xiaosheng nodded and said: "Yes, a warrior with a strength of more than three thousand kilograms can reach the next level. In fact, a warrior with a strength of less than three thousand kilograms can reach the next level. Have you heard that there are people who are born with all eight meridians?"
Wang Cheng and Yang Si looked at each other and shook their heads.
Zhang Xiaosheng explained: "This is a natural martial artist! Some people practice all their lives but cannot reach the realm of martial arts, and some are born with it! There are also people who are born with a body that is different from ordinary people. They don't need to practice, and they can be strong as adults. They are born warrior!"
Yang Si opened his mouth, and it took him a long time to speak: "Then it's a waste of practice! He's so powerful since he was born, and he is destined to be the strongest in the world in the future!"
Zhang Xiaosheng shook his head and said: "Qualification is important, but hard work is more important. There are always people with better qualifications than you, but hard work is endless, you little bald donkey, don't sacrifice your strengths to chase the inferiors!"
He continued: "The Qi and Blood Realm is a very special realm. Some warriors don't even practice this realm and feel it is useless. The human heart is like this. When you can't do it, you will find ways to deny it. It's best for everyone to do it. negative!"
"Old man, have you done it?" Yang Si asked casually.
Zhang Xiaosheng nodded and said: "With a small amount of Qi and blood, the strength exceeds six thousand catties, the Qi and blood are like smoke; with a large amount of Qi and blood, the strength exceeds nine thousand catties, the Qi and blood are like a rainbow; with perfect Qi and blood, the strength exceeds ten thousand catties, the Qi and blood are like smoke. Dragon. Some of the most powerful generals in the army have strength of more than three thousand kilograms, so this realm is also called the warrior realm!"
"If a warrior's strength reaches 3,000 kilograms and he wants to make a breakthrough, he must either have extraordinary talents or practice some ancient methods, so that his strength can make another breakthrough. Therefore, these warriors are also called ancient warriors!"
Yang Si was surprised when he heard this and said: "I understand. No wonder some martial arts masters cannot defeat those fierce generals in the army. Those fierce generals must be ancient warriors who have practiced ancient methods!"
Wang Cheng thought that the Xuanwei Zhu Wei who was shot by him jumped more than ten meters, and he must be an ancient warrior!
His eyes lit up and he thought to himself: "So, "Fuhu Fist" is also an ancient technique!"
Zhang Xiaosheng continued: "Martial master, a first-class martial artist, can be called a master. A martial artist practices Zhou Zhenqi from the outside to the inside. The Ren and Du meridians are connected, which is the entry point; the eight meridians are connected, and the Zhenqi moves through the small Zhoutian, which is the beginning. It is a small achievement; then through the twelve main meridians, the true energy circulates in the great circumference, which is a great achievement; the true energy is endless, it is a perfection. This state is called the state of the circumference. It can be a teacher of others, so it is also called a martial artist!"
"This is the lower realm. There is also the middle realm. What about the upper realm?" Wang Cheng asked.
Zhang Xiaosheng said: "The middle realm is about refining qi and becoming a god. At this level, every time a warrior improves to a small realm, all kinds of miraculous things will appear."
"This should be the realm of Grand Master, right?" Yang Si said.
Zhang Xiaosheng did not answer and continued to explain: "Wuzong, a top master, practices true energy at this level. When the sea of qi and true energy accumulate to a certain level, it will turn into true energy. All the true energy will turn into true energy, which is the beginning; Condensing the true essence, with attached attributes, is a small achievement; when the true essence is accumulated to a certain level, it will form Yuan Dan, which is a great achievement; after undergoing the four refinements of the earth, water, fire, wind and elixir, the body will not rot, and the diamond will not be broken, which is perfection. Realm, this realm is called Yuan Dan Realm. Those who establish this realm can start a sect, so they are also called Wuzong. Those who have achieved the Yuan Dan Realm are great masters in the secular world!"
"So, old man, you are more powerful than the Grand Master?" Yang Si's eyes shone.
"Hmph! Grand masters are nothing! Even if they haven't experienced the elixir tribulation, even ten grand masters are no match for me!" Zhang Xiaosheng was quite disdainful, but soon looked lonely.
So what if I experienced a calamity? He is as strong as him, and now he has become a useless person!
"What about above the Yuan Dan realm?" Wang Cheng asked.
Zhang Xiaosheng said: "Beyond the Yuan Dan realm, there are peerless masters, one among ten thousand. What is practiced in this realm is the true meaning of martial arts. The true meaning of martial arts is tempered by the elixir fire. When the true meaning enters the body, it is the entrance; when the true meaning leaves the body, the human being The unity of soldiers is a small achievement; the transformation of true meaning into form is a great achievement. The condensation of true meaning is perfection. This state is called the true one state, also called the true meaning state. Anyone who is strong in this state can dominate a state or a place , the king among men, so he is called King Wu!"
"I know! I know! The Sword King of Western Shu and the Gun King of Dongzhou, these two are the only two powerful Martial Kings in the world!" Yang Si said excitedly.
"Snapped!"
Zhang Xiaosheng slapped Yang Si on the head and said: "You little bald donkey knows nothing! The world is so big and there are so many talented people, don't you know? Although King Wu's strong men are rare, I, the Great Zhou Dynasty, are definitely more than that. Two people! Zheng and Lu in the north, and Xia in the northwest, do you think there are no such countries?"
Seeing that Yang Si was silent, he continued: "Beyond the True First Realm is the Wanxiang Realm. How to practice in this realm, I don't know. However, I am the invincible strongman from five hundred years ago, Zhou Huang. In this realm. A strong person in this realm can be called the emperor and respected in the world, so he is called the Martial Emperor, which is what the world calls the supreme king of martial arts!"
Wang Cheng, the invincible strongman in the Great Zhou Dynasty, has heard about it. Zhou Huang was born more than 400 years ago. He is a son of the clan. He is a genius and is the only powerful Martial Emperor in the Great Zhou Dynasty in the past 500 years. Because of his existence, the Great Zhou Dynasty Unified the surrounding countries and ended the feudal system.
More than three hundred years later, the Great Zhou Dynasty did not escape the law of history. It prospered and then declined. The Zhou Dynasty, which had been comfortable for a long time, began to decay. By the time of King Jian, the grandfather of Zhou Zhaowu, the Great Zhou Dynasty was divided into two kingdoms, with Zheng and Lu in the north. , there is Linhu Kingdom in the northeast, Xia Kingdom in the northwest, Gaoshan Kingdom in the southwest, and Baiyue Kingdom in the south.
After Zhou Zhaowu's father, King Ling, came to the throne, he devoted himself to restoring the unification of the world. His "Supreme Plan" was designed with reference to Zhou Huang. The countries did not want to be unified again, so fifteen years ago he launched the Five Kingdoms to attack Zhou.
Zhang Xiaosheng said: "Further up is the upper realm of martial arts, where gods are refining and returning to the void. How to practice in this realm, the world has no way of knowing. It is expected that the legendary Martial Saints and Martial Gods should be the strong ones in this realm. Their traces have long been seen. It can’t be traced, maybe it will ascend to immortality and become immortal, which is also unknown!”
"Can you still become an immortal?" Wang Cheng was shocked. Who in the world doesn't yearn for being immortal and living as long as heaven and earth?
Neither the best in the world nor the supreme martial arts arouse Wang Cheng's interest. He doesn't care about these false names. He only cares about whether he can return to his original world in this life. His parents are getting older and older, and he is the only son in the family. If they are How cruel it would be to not have their only son with them in their later years!
"Senior, are there really immortals?" Wang Cheng asked again.
"There should be!" Zhang Xiaosheng was not sure. Immortals were only in legends and no one had ever seen them.
Just when Wang Cheng was disappointed, he heard him say again: "It's the little girl who just saved you. She has some connection with the immortal!"
"Is she a descendant of an immortal?" Wang Cheng asked quickly.
Zhang Xiaosheng shook his head and said with a smile: "The sword technique she used to save you earlier was Wulianguan's "Immortal Sword" - "Immortal Guiding the Way". It is said that Wulianguan's ability to establish a sect is related to the immortal!"
Wang Cheng's eyes are getting brighter and brighter. If he can cultivate and become an immortal, it is not impossible to return to the original world.
Later, Wang Cheng asked some questions about spiritual practice, and Zhang Xiaosheng answered them one by one.
This night's conversation benefited Wang Cheng a lot. It opened the door to martial arts for him, pointed out the direction of practice, and clarified the path ahead.
