He Mingxiu was playing with the bamboo flute in his hand while giving Yang Jin basic sword skills.
"Junior brother, it seems to me that you no longer have any major problems in mastering basic swordsmanship.
All that's left is to spend a lot of time and energy practicing hard, day after day.
Only by turning all the basic swordsmanship learned into physical instincts can one use it as one wishes.
Then get rid of the bad and keep the good, and bring out the new with the old.
Then this basic swordsmanship can be regarded as the real entrance into the palace and the door to the entrance swordsmanship.
There are clouds in swordsmanship, the sword has the heart and mind, the mind has the heartbeat, the sword comes first with the mind, and the body moves with the sword, that's it!
Now, although your basic swordsmanship is very standard, you can still use your strength to draw the sword.
But it is still a little too immature, and the transition between footwork and sword styles is not mature enough.
However, even so, junior brother, your progress is still somewhat beyond my expectations.
It seems that, with the talent of a junior fellow apprentice, it is a loss to the sect if he fails to join the sect! "
"Senior brother praises me too much. The reason why junior brother can learn basic swordsmanship so quickly is thanks to his careful guidance.
Without the vigorous training of my senior brother, I am afraid that my progress in swordsmanship would not be so fast!
By the way, senior brother, I would like to ask you for advice regarding the cultivation of internal strength.
Senior Liang said that you have great attainments in self-refinement and foundation building, and I would like to know something about this aspect of cultivation. "
After Yang Jin drank the water, he did not continue practicing his sword.
Instead, he asked He Mingxiu, who was holding a bamboo flute and looking intoxicated, about self-refining and foundation-building cultivation.
When He Mingxiu heard that Yang Jin was asking this question, he stopped wandering and put away his bamboo flute.
He said to Yang Jin with a somewhat solemn expression: "Junior brother, the cultivation of internal energy is the most important foundation.
And this self-training and foundation building is to cultivate the internal strength and build a condensed physical foundation.
As the saying goes, this tall building rises from the ground.
Therefore, self-refinement and foundation building can be said to be the most important thing in the internal cultivation of martial arts practitioners!
In general martial arts, the foundation-building methods are divided into static exercises and dynamic exercises, which emphasize both internal and external cultivation.
The so-called practice is to practice one breath internally and the muscles, bones and skin externally.
You must not be opportunistic or take crooked paths. You can only achieve something by taking one step at a time and going steadily.
If you only seek speed for a while and don't pay attention to the foundation, you may make rapid progress in the beginning.
But when you reach a certain level of cultivation, there will be many hidden dangers and serious consequences.
Therefore, when you are refining yourself and building your foundation, and when you are coagulating your blood and tempering your body, you must be steady and steady, and you must not be impetuous and greedy for more and faster! "
After He Mingxiu solemnly warned Yang Jin, he continued: "Junior brother, you should remember that I once told you that martial arts practitioners in the world are divided into nine and eighteen levels.
The so-called ninth level and eighteenth level actually refers to the level of internal strength cultivation.
But the beginning of this inner strength practice starts with making a fuss about the body's qi and blood.
Therefore, the first priority in internal strength training is Qi and blood, which can be divided into two types: static strength and dynamic strength.
The so-called Jing Gong is to sit cross-legged and meditate, breathe in and out, sense the breath, adjust the breath and exercise, and remove the waste and retain the essence.
As for Qigong, it involves standing in a stance to practice boxing, sword practice, regulating breath and energy, strengthening qi and blood, beating the body, tempering the physical body, skin, tendons, bones, and marrow, advancing layer by layer.
In the final analysis, the most fundamental aspect of internal strength training in martial arts is the eight words "refining energy and transforming it into energy, and using falsehood to cultivate truth."
The human body originally only had qi and blood, without any internal energy of true qi.
It's just that the predecessors and sages have summarized through countless experiments and created some unique skills that can cultivate the inner strength and true energy.
The most fundamental aspects of these exercises are the same.
That is, through internal and external cultivation at the beginning, contemplating and contemplating day after day, imagining that there is an internal force and true energy running in the body, which is the method of internal strength cultivation.
Over time, a fake, imaginary seed of true energy will sprout in the human body.
The method of cultivating through false cultivation is to use this imaginary seed of inner energy of true energy to refine the energy with the help of the essence of energy and blood.
Condensing a ray of true internal energy and energy from it, and then using this first ray of internal energy and true energy to cultivate and strengthen it, this is the purpose of practicing Jing Gong.
The more sufficient Qi and blood the human body has, the more essence of Qi and blood there will be. Daily practice of meditation, contemplation, breathing and exhalation will generate stronger internal energy of Qi.
Therefore, this dynamic practice is to strengthen qi and blood, stabilize the foundation, and provide more qi and blood essence for the practice of internal strength.
Of course, different martial arts techniques and different people consume different amounts of energy and blood essence to practice internal energy, and the internal energy and energy produced are also different.
This is the importance of those magical skills and personal qualifications.
Therefore, in the final analysis, the cultivation of internal strength is to refine the essence and transform it into energy, and to use the false to cultivate the true.
For example, the reason why Lu Xinglie, the "blood-clad soul hunter" that Uncle Liang and the others were chasing, liked to coagulate human blood and make elixirs was to make up for the lack of Qi and blood in his body.
Therefore, junior brother, your top priority now is to refine yourself and build your foundation, coagulate blood and temper your body, and increase the thickness of Qi and blood in your body as soon as possible.
Especially if you have been begging for food in your early years and have not been able to eat enough all day long, resulting in a lack of energy and blood.
Therefore, what is most needed at the moment is to recuperate and practice Qigong.
This is also the reason why I only taught you basic swordsmanship and didn't tell you more about internal strength.
Currently, practicing basic swordsmanship is the most appropriate way to help you strengthen your energy and blood.
As for meditating, regulating breath and exhaling, don’t rush for a while..."
…”
Next, He Mingxiu explained a lot of basic knowledge about internal strength training to Yang Jin.
Whether it is using exercises to cultivate Qi and blood, or doing static exercises to breathe out the inner breath, or even moving energy from standing positions to regulating breath and exercises, all aspects are introduced in an extremely comprehensive and detailed manner.
"Junior brother, it's getting late, I will tell you this much tonight.
You have to go learn martial arts from Master Linghui tomorrow, so go to bed early! "
He Mingxiu spoke for nearly an hour, and he stopped only when his mouth and throat became parched.
"Okay, senior brother, then you should go back to your room and rest!"
Yang Jin returned to the room, finished a simple wash, and then lay on the bed and savored the knowledge about internal strength cultivation that He Mingxiu had just told him.
“I didn’t expect that inner strength cultivation in this world is like this!
No wonder Senior Liang asked me to put in a lot of effort in cultivating the realm of self-refining and foundation-building, especially blood coagulation and body tempering!
It turns out that the cultivation of qi and blood is so important, so it’s no wonder that the entry requirements for the "Shaoyang Divine Art" require that the qi and blood be condensed to the seventh level! "
Recalling some of the things Liang Yunxiao told him this afternoon, Yang Jin thought about it carefully.
I feel that what He Mingxiu said about internal strength cultivation is extremely reasonable.
Now Yang Jin will no longer believe in those bizarre fabricated things in martial arts novels from his previous life.
Just by sitting cross-legged and meditating, can you grasp your inner breath and generate a sense of Qi?
Is it possible to develop internal energy by sitting in seclusion for ten days and a half?
Don't be kidding, he, Yang, has personally seen the huge destructive power of the martial arts masters in this world.
The internal energy that can be cultivated by just sitting in retreat for ten days and a half?
Compared with the huge power generated by the internal energy, sitting and breathing simply does not comply with the law of conservation of energy.
On the contrary, what He Mingxiu taught was more in line with the scientific knowledge Yang Jin knew in his previous life.
After savoring it carefully, Yang Jin gathered her thoughts and stopped thinking wildly. It was important to sleep now.
"I want to be the most handsome man in the world of martial arts. I can't do it without good work and rest habits."
The next morning, Yang Jin woke up and felt something was wrong.
First of all, he woke up about half an hour later this morning than yesterday, and he was still a little dizzy after waking up.
This made Yang Jin feel that something was wrong. He had a regular schedule these days, going to bed early and getting up early every day, and his biological clock was also very accurate.
He wouldn't get up late for no reason, and besides the smell of gunpowder smoke left after he set off the fireworks yesterday, there seemed to be some other smell in the house.
After he made the fireworks last night, in order to test whether the fireworks were successful, he lit gunpowder in the house.
There is some smoke smell left in the house, which is normal.
But this was the first time he smelled another strange smell.
Ever since he traveled to this young body, Yang Jin felt that his five senses were much stronger than those of his previous life.
Not only in terms of the five senses, but also in other places.
For example, strength, agility, neurological reactions, and brain thinking have all increased to varying degrees, as if they have developed and evolved again.
Although the strange smell in the room was very light, Yang Jin could still smell it.
After Yang Jin got dressed and got out of bed, she walked to the door and squatted down, reaching out and checking it carefully.
Then he walked to the window and did the same thing.
"It seems that someone did come into the room last night! I just don't know if it was him?"
After checking the doors and windows, Yang Jin was sure that someone had indeed entered his room last night.
It turns out that Yang Jin would put a few hairs and a small leaf in the cracks of the door and window every day before going to bed.
He learned this method from movies and TV shows in his previous life, and the purpose was naturally to prevent people from entering the room.
He had carefully checked the door and window just now. Some of the hair and leaves caught in the cracks of the door and window were missing, and some fell to the ground.
"This proves that my suspicions are correct, and my nose is not wrong either!
After I fell asleep last night, someone did sneak into my room.
And the strange fragrance that I smelled should be the so-called incense in the world. "
Confirming that someone had sneaked in, Yang Jin immediately checked the cloth bag where he kept his manuscript papers and the things on his desk.
The things in the cloth bag and the things on the desk are all there.
But Yang Jin carefully discovered that these things had been carefully turned over and carefully put back to their original places.
Moreover, the paper manuscript of the "Three Rings and Moon Sword Technique" that he copied in Chinese Pinyin is missing one page!
"Junior brother, it's fine that you're fine.
At your age, it's time to sleep. When I was my junior brother's age, I couldn't get up every day, so my senior brothers would force me to get up to practice.
Okay, junior brother, since you're up, go and eat quickly, don't keep Master Linghui waiting. "
"Okay, senior brother!"
