"According to this book, Flowing Cloud Palm means flowing clouds and flowing water. The palm technique is as gushing as water, and as misty and unpredictable as clouds and mist. It is an excellent palm technique."

Under the red light of firewood, Lu Yuan flipped through the summary of the secret book in his hand and read the above content: "This set of palm techniques has a total of eighty-one moves, covering defense, strong attack, sneak attack, and palm power application techniques.

It can be said to be all-encompassing and inclusive.

And in addition to these moves, the palm method also comes with a set of mental exercises that can train the six meridians in the human body, namely the three yin meridians of the hand and the three yang meridians of the hand.

According to what is recorded in the book, the inner strength and mental methods are divided into three levels. The first level is to practice the Taiyin Lung Meridian of the Hand and the Large Intestine Meridian of the Hand Yangming.

After practicing these two meridians, you can generate internal strength, and combined with the palm skills, your strength will be enough to rank among the third-rate in the world.

The second level is to practice the Jueyin Pericardium Meridian of the Hand and the Triple Burner Meridian of the Hand Shaoyang. After practicing these two meridians, your strength will reach the peak of the third-rate world.

If you put it outside, you can be considered a martial arts expert.

The third level involves practicing the Shaoyin Heart Meridian of the Hand and the Small Intestine Meridian of the Hand Taiyang. After practicing these two meridians, the three yin meridians of the hand and the three yang meridians of the hand can be connected.

At that time, the internal energy in the body will flow like a stream and flow through the hands without any obstruction, and the internal energy will be achieved. Put it in the world of martial arts, it would be a second-rate master.

As for the second-rate masters, in some small sects and small sects in some places, they can be ranked as the leader of the gang. "

After flipping through the entire book, Lu Yuan closed the book and felt a little disappointed.

Although Liuyun Palm looks pretty good, it not only has superb palm skills, but also comes with internal strength that matches the palm skills, which is quite powerful.

But even so, it cannot hide the limitation that this palm technique can only practice six serious scriptures.

There are twelve regular meridians and eight extraordinary meridians in the human body, which Lu Yuan naturally knew.

He has also read countless martial arts novels and TV series, and he also knows that the real superior internal skills and mental methods are those that can master the twelve main meridians and the eight extraordinary meridians.

But now, the internal skills and mental techniques in his Flowing Cloud Palm can only be practiced in six of the formal scriptures, not even the twelve.

"So this Flowing Cloud Palm is exactly as he described. It's just a second-rate palm technique, and it can only be practiced up to the second-rate level."

Lu Yuan came to the conclusion and was speechless: "As expected, just like the name, this technique is really not that good."

well!

With a slight sigh and a little disappointment, Lu Yuan put away the book and opened the pot.

The rabbit meat and rice inside have been cooked for so long and are already cooked.

Meals without much seasoning will naturally not taste very good.

Fortunately, he has become accustomed to this kind of life, and his need for food has been reduced to the point where he only needs to fill his stomach.

After finishing the dinner, with a hint of reluctance, I started cleaning the tableware on the stove.

That’s what makes cooking and finishing meals so annoying.

Compared to handling the ingredients and cleaning the kitchen utensils and chopsticks himself, Lu Yuan prefers to eat ready-made meals prepared by others.

Unfortunately, given the current conditions, he can only do these things by himself.

"Maybe I should think about it, find someone to marry, and ask a wife to come back and help me cook?"

While washing the basin, Lu Yuan rubbed his hands and couldn't help but daydream in his mind.

After more than half a year of being single, my body is now that of a vigorous teenager. It is completely false to say that I have no physical needs.

"No, no, it can't be like this."

This thought only occurred for a while, but was quickly cut off because he thought of something.

According to the logic of martial arts novels, some magical secrets have requirements for practitioners to maintain a body of pure yang and pure yin. If they are not virgins, they cannot practice at all.

Although I don’t know if this is the case in this world, but for the sake of caution, I still want to be a little virgin before I can achieve great success.

"Anyway, my lifespan is infinite, so I can spend hundreds of years practicing my magic skills first and become invincible in the world.

After the security problem is solved, there will still be thousands or thousands of endless years. Then you can find the chivalrous witches, rich ladies, and royal goddesses in the martial arts world, and try them all.

By then, I will open a big harem..."

Thinking of those wonderful scenes, people couldn't help but laugh.



The night was already dark, and Lu Yuan did not go to bed as usual today. Instead, he lit the oil lamp he made with animal fat, continued to take out the secret book of Liuyun Palm, and started reading at night.

Although the outline of this exercise has been read by him, he still has no specific details on how to practice it, precautions when practicing, techniques for exerting force in various moves, various prescriptions to prepare it, and some notes on the exercise. Waiting for questions, but still not thoroughly researched.

Although the entire book of Liuyunzhang only has more than 20,000 words and more than a hundred exercise diagrams, the content is extremely rich.

Take the palm moves as an example. There are a total of eighty-one moves. Each move is accompanied by a diagram of the exercise, plus more than a hundred words of explanations.

In just over a hundred words, it is necessary to explain clearly how to practice the moves, what precautions should be taken when using them, what techniques are used to exert force, how to coordinate internal force and palm techniques, and other details.

His words are concise, and it is not an exaggeration to say something small and meaningful.

For Lu Yuan, this meant that he had to delve into the meaning of these classical Chinese texts, summarize feasible solutions, and then slowly experiment on his own.

There can't be any carelessness in this.

After all, it involves the meridians of the human body, and if something goes wrong in it, it may damage the body.

And for him who is already immortal, even if there is only a slight possibility of endangering his life, that is unacceptable.

Safety is not absolute, it is absolutely unsafe.

"So it's better to spend half a year first to study how to practice the first move and the first meridian, make sure there are no problems, and then start practicing."

Lu Yuan looked at the book in front of him. The classical Chinese text without punctuation marks was extremely difficult to read. If he didn't have a certain foundation, he might not be able to understand it.

However, after watching it for a while, he had some experience with the first move of Liuyun Palm, the Fu Shui style, and he roughly understood how to practice it.

However, this understanding is still not certain enough, the exploration is not mature enough, and it has some flaws.

If it were an ordinary person, such as the dead Ma Jiqing, who knew the specific training method, he would definitely get started without any hesitation.

After all, their life is short and they seize the day. You can only strive for great achievements in martial arts in your limited lifespan, and then enjoy wealth.

But Lu Yuan's own life is precious and he does not have the limitation of longevity. Of course, he must be cautious about these martial arts that affect the body.

That's it.

He would never dare to practice the Fu Shui pose without studying it thousands of times and understanding it more profoundly than the founder and eliminating hidden dangers.

Everything is for longevity and for one's own life.



Winter passes and spring comes.

In the blink of an eye, the hot summer and cold autumn have passed, and Lantau Island has been covered with a layer of white snow.

Outside the cave in the mountain, a clear stream flows slowly, and the surrounding snow melts under the sunlight and merges into the stream from the gravel gully beside the stream.

Hoo ho ho.

The strong wind pierced the air, bringing out a slightly harsh sound.

Lu Yuan's figure jumped on the boulders and trees, waving his palms up and down, like a phantom, disappearing without a trace, and his whereabouts were hard to find.

After a while, the palm shadows all over the sky disappeared, and he punched out fiercely, hitting a tree with a bang.

The big tree trembled violently, and countless snow fell from the sky with its leaves.

He withdrew his power and stopped, but the bark of the tree trunk hit by the palm had been shattered, and a palm mark was clearly visible.

"It still doesn't work. Even if I have perfected the Fushui Pose, with my current palm strength, I still can't penetrate the tree even one inch and leave my handprint on the tree trunk."

Looking at the traces he left in front of him, Lu Yuan let out a long breath, his eyes were calm, and he already had a calculation in his heart: "Sure enough, in the end, you still need to practice your mental skills and develop your inner strength."

As he spoke, his consciousness gathered in his mind.

[Name: Lu Yuan]

[Talent: Immortality]

【Age: 17】

[Realm: The day after tomorrow (not entering the stream)]

[Martial arts: Flowing Cloud Palm (not yet started)]

[Skills: Hunting Trap (Dacheng) Simple Sword Skills (Perfect) Simple Archery (Perfect)]

Looking down, he focused on the interface of Martial Arts Liuyun Palm, and instantly there were many sub-interfaces below.

[Palm Technique: Fu Shui Pose (Perfect)]

[Heart Method: Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian (not yet started)]

Some time ago, after he had thoroughly studied how to use the first serious method, this new method interface suddenly appeared on the attribute interface.

Lu Yuan guessed that his understanding of Taiyin Lung Meridian was enough, so although he hadn't started to practice the internal skills and mental methods, it was still displayed on the martial arts interface.

This can be regarded as a golden finger for myself, a moderate harvest from exploration.

But for this known information, he just glanced at it and skipped it, and his eyes returned to the realm level.

After practicing martial arts for so long, Lu Yuan gradually understood the various levels of martial arts.

Based on the information currently known and the various martial arts novels he had read in his previous life, he speculated that the realm of martial arts in this life should be divided into two major levels.

The first is the acquired realm, which mainly practices various meridians, such as the twelve regular meridians and the eight extraordinary meridians.

As these meridians are slowly cultivated, the warrior's internal strength increases, and his realm gradually improves.

The specific realm division should include third-rate, second-rate, first-rate and other small realms.

However, in these small realms, he didn't know how many meridians needed to be refined to meet the requirements.

It can only be verified later.

The second realm should be innate.

However, he had seen many descriptions of the innate realm in martial arts novels, but he had never really come into contact with it in this life.

The level of Flowing Cloud Palm is too low and does not involve innate content at all.

Even this realm was only speculated by Lu Yuan himself. No one knows whether it is true or not.

"Forget it, why are you thinking so much? After I master Flowing Cloud Palm and have the power to protect myself, I can slowly explore the world."

With his consciousness withdrawn from countless thoughts, Lu Yuan shook his head and walked to the creek. After washing his face, he went to a large bluestone nearby and started working.

At this time, there was a small stove on the bluestone, with a strong fire inside, and a teapot boiling on it. Under the heat of the fire, a burst of tea fragrance wafted out.

Wrapping the handle with cotton cloth, Lu Yuan poured himself a cup of hot tea and took a pleasant sip. The coldness disappeared immediately.

He took the cleaned and skewered rabbit meat from the bluestone next to him, put it on the stove and started smoking it.

Although martial arts training is important, enjoying life is also very important.

Lu Yuan has a long life. Although he is still a novice immortal, he has begun to adapt to planning his own immortal life.

In the long road of life, in order to prevent myself from having any mental problems caused by the endless life span, I will self-destruct.

Some necessary hobbies are a good diversion.

The same is true for martial arts, the same is true for life, and the same is true for cooking.

After more than a year of practice, Lu Yuan's barbecue skills have become extremely good, especially after he found several spices from the mountains and solved the embarrassing dilemma of having only salt for seasoning.

The rabbit meat that had been eaten countless times was quickly processed with his superb skills.

The golden color is pleasing to the eye, and the dripping grease drips on the stove, emitting bursts of strong fragrance, which makes people move their index fingers as soon as they smell it.

He picked up the grilled meat skewers, brought it to his mouth, blew on it, and took a bite.

As expected, the slightly higher temperature caused the mouth to open slightly, and the tongue continued to push the meat to dissipate the heat. But for the sake of deliciousness, I just refused to spit it out.

Enjoying the pleasure of paying for food, Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, smiled happily, but slowly thought in his heart: "I already fully understand the route of the Taiyin Lung Meridian of the Hand, and I can guarantee that it will not happen." What’s the problem? Now it’s almost time to officially practice the mind method.”

I have only been practicing moves, and no matter how good I am, I will never be good at it.

He has been practicing martial arts for more than half a year, but his level is still not good enough, which is really ugly.

No matter what, you must develop your internal strength first.

Even if you only practice one meridian, even if you develop internal skills, you still won't be able to get into the flow.

But is it the same if you have internal strength and don't have internal strength?

"Just to practice internal strength, we need to prepare new prescriptions, so we have to buy new medicinal materials." Thinking of this, Lu Yuan got a headache.

A few days ago, he spent more than two taels of silver to buy a batch of medicinal materials to assist in practicing palm skills.

As for practicing Fu Shui Pose, it took more than half a year, more than eight months, to purchase a batch of medicinal materials basically every month, which cost almost twenty taels of silver.

In the past year, Lu Yuan had also earned some money through hunting. But the total amount is only eight taels, less than half of consumption, and the excess expenditure can only be subsidized by savings.

Nowadays, his savings have been reduced to less than fifteen taels of silver after constant consumption.

"The medicinal materials needed to practice internal strength are more expensive than the medicinal materials used to practice moves. According to the current market price, a month's supply of medicinal materials for practicing will cost five taels of silver. My savings can only last three months at most."

It is said that a long illness makes a good doctor.

Although Lu Yuan has not been ill for a long time, he often needs to buy medicine because of his martial arts training. Gradually, I became very familiar with various pharmacology and drug prices.

In addition, I had paid attention to it before, and now I knew the approximate cost just by doing a calculation.
