When practicing hard martial arts outside, you usually only need to be able to endure the pain and still have money to buy medicine, and you can basically succeed in practicing.
Even if you can't stand the pain and someone forces you to practice, as long as you use medicinal baths and ointments, you may not be unable to practice.
But practicing hard kung fu internally requires extremely strong willpower to achieve success.
In the midst of great pain, one must remain relatively awake to control one's internal forces and prevent one's internal forces from getting out of control. This is definitely not something that everyone can do.
In particular, this kind of pain increases gradually. When training skin, training meat, training bones, training muscles... The skin training may be fine at the beginning, but when it comes to muscle training, 90% of the world's pain will be lost. The warrior brushed it off.
The bone training that comes later will be even more terrifying. The pain that penetrates the bones will become a real adjective. The person who can stay awake under this kind of pain and control the internal force to practice must have a perverted level of willpower!
Of course, if you want to practice cultivation by reducing internal force output, reducing pain, etc., that is indeed a method, but the cultivation effect is...
It is quite rare for you to become a second-rate warrior in your lifetime.
In the world of martial arts, one or two can be seen from time to time who can become first-class masters through external hard skills training, but who can become first-rate masters through internal hard skills training. Currently, the only one who is famous in the world is the Evil Vajra Kung Fu.
This shows how difficult it is to practice hard skills internally.
This is still one of the difficulties.
For martial artists who practice hard skills internally, there is another big problem - internal strength.
That's right.
It’s inner strength!
The biggest difference between internal martial arts practitioners and external martial arts practitioners is that internal martial arts practitioners must use internal strength.
This characteristic that uniquely belongs to internal martial arts practitioners has also become a limitation on it.
Internal martial arts practitioners need to use internal strength to practice. Naturally, the more internal strength, the better the effect. However, often people who practice hard martial arts are not talented in internal martial arts...
If you are not talented in internal skills, you will naturally not have much internal strength. If you don’t have much internal strength, the effect of practicing hard skills will naturally not be good.
This is a dead end.
at the same time.
There is another problem that causes the poor results of hard kung fu training, and that is the efficiency of internal force transfer to the whole body.
By just opening up the Dantian, you can also circulate your internal energy throughout your body, but it's just about the efficiency...
If the Twelve Meridians are highways, the internal force can be compared to a car.
Then after opening up the Twelve Meridians, this 'car' can pass through these twelve highways and run to all parts of the body at extremely fast speeds and with extremely low losses.
Without clearing the twelve rules, this car would be equivalent to running wildly on a completely undeveloped land. Things like speed and loss are easy to understand without even thinking about it.
If they don't want to be held back in this regard, internal martial arts practitioners must at least open up one meridian in each limb so that internal energy can flow throughout the body quickly and with low loss.
Therefore, the second-rate internal martial arts practitioners you see in the martial arts world are often third-rate internal martial arts practitioners. A first-rate internal martial arts practitioner such as Evil Vajra Caoquan is himself a second-rate internal martial arts practitioner.
When hard internal training relies so much on internal strength, if he does not have enough internal strength to support him, it will be difficult for him to reach the level of a first-class internal martial artist.
After watching the difficult internal training of hard skills, Xu Yi only had one thought in his mind.
"It seems like practicing hard kung fu here is very suitable for me?"
Willpower?
Are you talking about this with someone who can practice the "Evil Sword Manual"?
Internal strength?
He is a first-class martial artist who has mastered ten serious principles. Is it difficult for him to practice first-class hard skills?
If that doesn't work, he can still take drugs!
Just take Shiquan Dabu Pill as a blue pill. Isn’t it possible to get as much internal energy as you need?
The more Xu Yi thought about it, the more he felt in his heart.
"Practice and see!"
Originally, he was not planning to practice now. Compared with internal strength, external power is called another path for warriors, and even a more difficult path. He felt that his practice for one or two days would basically not achieve any results. .
It is better to wait until you are free in the future and then practice specifically.
But when he finished reading "Bronze Statue Kung Fu" and deeply felt the difficulty of practicing this external skill, he suddenly found that he seemed to be able to practice it very easily?
"Enable twenty-four times the normal state!"
"Practice the "Bronze Statue Skill"!"
The first level of the "Bronze Statue Skill" is to open up the Dantian. Xu Yi's Dantian has already been opened, so he naturally skipped this level and went directly to the second level.
The second to fifth levels are all about skin training.
The training process is also quite simple and straightforward, which is to use internal force to polish and temper the skin of the whole body.
Each tempering is a level one, and completing four temperings is equivalent to completing the skin training.
The same goes for future meat training, bone training, etc.
There are not so many complicated things in the practice of external skills. To put it simply, it only takes one word, practice it and you are done!
Of course, when you really want to practice, you must not be too reckless.
"The first level of physical training is skin training."
"If you want to practice skin training, especially internal hard skills, the first thing you need to do is to know the tolerable strength of the skin membrane!"
This is the most basic and fundamental thing.
Only by determining the tolerable strength of your skin can you use the corresponding internal force to temper and achieve the best training effect.
Otherwise, if you practice indiscriminately, you will use less internal energy and fail to achieve good cultivation results. If you use too much internal energy... you'd better pray that you don't use so much internal energy.
Generally speaking, the strength of the skin membranes on each person's body is different, such as the skin on the feet, scalp, etc. The strength of these skin membranes is relatively high, while the skin on other parts of the body is relatively lower.
Xu Yi quickly circulated his internal energy throughout his body, and quickly found out the strength of the membranes in various places, and then turned it into various data and recorded it in the memory palace.
Finally, I found that the difference in strength between these skins was quite obvious.
If the weakest skin is defined as 1, then the strongest skin is 4, a full four times difference!
(PS: The thickness of human skin is 0.5-4.0 mm, a difference of eight times. I personally feel that the difference is a bit too big, so I adjusted it slightly. Just think that skin thickness and skin strength are not the same concept.)
"It's not a big problem."
Xu Yi thought to himself.
It doesn't matter if the skin strength is too high in the early stage. After one or two tempers, the gap between them will quickly shrink. Even by the fourth time, these gaps will be completely smoothed out, and the skin strength of the whole body will tend to be the same. numerical value.
This is mainly because for the internal strength tempering, the original strength of human skin is too weak, and it is completely insufficient to compare with the tempered skin.
"Start practicing!"
Xu Yi began the formal training process.
He has nine years of internal strength. Although he is still far behind other first-class martial artists, compared to other internal martial arts practitioners, this internal strength is already quite good.
Usually, internal martial arts practitioners start their training bit by bit. For example, for skin tempering, they first select a small section of skin - usually a small amount of skin the size of a fingernail.
Expand and expand little by little.
Xu Yi was like this at the beginning, choosing a section of skin on his left little finger for practice.
"Well, it hurts a little bit!"
In a mysterious space.
Xu Yi came to his own conclusion through the perception in the sea of consciousness.
Then he realized that this kind of pain was not difficult at all for him who was in twenty-four times the normal state.
“Start expanding!”
Starting from a section of the little finger, it expands to the entire little finger, then the five fingers, and then the entire palm.
This kind of pain is superimposed. At this point, ninety-nine percent of warriors have begun to be unable to bear it.
But for Xu Yi, who had turned on the 24 times normal state, this was still just a very easy thing.
"Keep expanding!"
The scope of skin tempering was further expanded, and in a short time, the entire forearm was included.
"Keep going!"
An entire arm is wrapped in it.
"Keep going!"
Except for the head, half of the upper body was wrapped in it.
At this point, Xu Yi finally stopped.
It's not because he can't bear it anymore in this state, but because his internal strength is no longer enough - his nine years of internal strength can only temper so much skin at the same time.
"Fine!"
Xu Yi did not continue to force it.
Just like that, I started my first skin tempering.
Because he is very aware of the strength of his own skin, his tempering can always achieve the best tempering effect.
Even because the strength of his skin has increased during his tempering process, he has a memory palace to record data, and he can quickly adjust it so that it can always reach the best tempering state.
In this state, Xu Yi's tempering effect is naturally not comparable to that of other warriors. Other warriors usually need more than ten hours to complete the first tempering, but Xu Yi only took less than half an hour in the end. The first tempering was completed.
"The comprehensive film strength has increased from about 2.0 to 6.0, and the maximum film strength has reached 7.5."
Xu Yi nodded with satisfaction.
He was quite satisfied with the effect of the first tempering. Although the current strength of the membrane is still relatively average, and it is estimated that it cannot even defend against a knife, it has generally increased three times compared to the beginning. .
"Even my strength has improved. Without any internal strength, I can punch dozens of kilograms of force with just one punch!"
Xu Yi was quite satisfied with all aspects of this tempering effect.
"It's just that this internal energy is consumed a bit. In less than half an hour, all my nine years of internal energy have been consumed!"
But this was not a big problem, he just swallowed five Shiquan Dabu Pills.
After taking a short rest and replenishing some of his internal strength.
"continue!"
This time he was tempering the skin on the right half of his body.
Also less than half an hour.
"Tempering completed!"
It has to be said that for Xu Yi, this kind of simple and direct physical training is too easy.
Just turning on the 24 times normal state can suppress all the pain. Coupled with the assistance of memory skills and timely adjustment of the tempering effect, it is simply the most perfect physical training!
There is nothing wrong with it except that it consumes a little more internal energy.
What's more important is that Xu Yi actually found some unexpected 'gains' this time.
"Painful memories!"
In the sea of consciousness.
Under the martial arts tree.
Xu Yi looked at the black painful memory in his hand, feeling a little weird in his heart.
This black ball of painful memory starlight was no less than the desire memory starlight he obtained after practicing the "Evil Sword Manual" for an hour.
After Xu Yi absorbed it, he actually gained a year and a half of spiritual energy.
"This is really an unexpected harvest!"
He really didn't expect that practicing external martial arts for an hour would actually bring him spiritual energy harvest, and it would also bring him so much spiritual energy.
In the same amount of time, he would not be able to bring in as much spiritual energy by practicing the "Xiexie Sword Manual" now.
"So, does this mean that I have opened up another method and path for myself to increase my spiritual energy?"
Xu Yi was speechless.
Not long ago, he was still worried about what he would do if he used the "Evil-Resisting Sword Manual" with high intensity, causing him to no longer be able to obtain spiritual energy in the future. Unexpectedly, just today, he found another one that was no less powerful than the "Evil-Resisting Sword". "Spectrum" method of obtaining spiritual energy.
"However, this method is still different from the "Evil-Resisting Sword Manual", and it is obvious that this method is far less sustainable than the "Evil-Resisting Sword Manual".
Why do you say that?
Because he couldn't complete the "Evil Sword Manual".
But he can practice the "Bronze Statue Skill".
If he fails to master the "Evil Sword Manual", he can keep practicing until his soul is completely adapted to these desires and will no longer have the slightest fluctuation.
"Bronze Statue Kung Fu" is different, it can be practiced successfully.
Once his cultivation is successful, it will no longer bring him spiritual energy gain.
He can't deliberately fail in cultivation just for the sake of these spiritual energies, right?
"There's no point in doing that."
Xu Yi shook his head.
Compared with several more spiritual realizations, what he wants most now is a strong body.
"Keep practicing!"
Swallowed five Shiquan Dabu Pills again.
The training area this time is the lower limbs, well, all the lower limbs as you think.
Speaking of which, there is one thing that must be mentioned.
Generally speaking, whether it is external training or internal training, there is no such thing as a 'cover door'.
At least there is no such thing in the "Bronze Statue Skill" that Xu Yi obtained.
A large part of the reason why there are such things as "covering doors" in the world is because - they are afraid of pain!
Why do many people who practice hard martial arts have their key parts become what they call the cover?
Because they don’t dare to practice in that place!
Think about it, when people practice "Iron Cloth Shirt", they have people use bamboo sticks or even iron sticks to beat them severely on all parts of their bodies. How many men dare to try their key parts to see if it can work? Can you bear it?
This is true for external training, and the same is true for internal training.
There are really not many people who dare to use their inner strength to practice their own skills.
Of course, Xu Yi is definitely not included among these people.
Isn't it the key part?
Do it!
