Martial arts, a secret method of combat, are not the same as spiritual skills.
There are levels of spiritual skills, and with each small level of improvement, the power and effect will be significantly enhanced after activation.
How strong it is is only related to the level of cultivation, and has nothing to do with the user's own cultivation level.
In other words, if the same spiritual skill is used at the same level by a monk at the first level of the Qi Realm, it will have the same power and effect as when used by a monk at the late stage of the Golden Core Realm.
The only difference is that the spiritual power storage of a first-level monk in the Qi Refining Realm is only enough for him to use it once or twice in a short period of time, while a monk in the Golden Core Realm can use it hundreds or thousands of times as he wishes.
Martial skills are exactly the opposite of spiritual skills.
It has no layers. How powerful and effective it is after being activated depends entirely on the user's own strength and the user's proficiency in using this martial skill.
The higher the user's level of cultivation and the higher the proficiency in martial arts, the stronger the power and effect will be after activation.
If the user's cultivation level and familiarity with martial arts can break through a certain dividing line, there is still the possibility of a qualitative change in martial arts.
For example, the Mud Boxing Technique that Sikong Yueling got for Jiang Fan is said to have undergone a qualitative change. Even if Jiang Fan's opponent is not close, Jiang Fan can still use the waving of his limbs to activate Qi in the air to control the opponent's movements. Achieve the purpose of sticking to the opponent remotely.
It is even said that there is a powerful person in the realm of enlightenment who has understood the way of spinning the void through this set of boxing techniques. Even the task of picking up the stars and the moon can be done easily.
All in all, spiritual skills can guarantee the lower limit of a monk's combat power, while martial arts can increase the upper limit of a monk's combat power.
As for magical powers, that is on another level and cannot be compared.
Now Jiang Fan, except that he has not been able to practice the corresponding skills for the time being, is almost the same as an orthodox Xuanzong monk in other aspects.
In the beginning, Sikong Yueling wanted to find a suitable book for Jiang Fan.
But she spent a long time choosing among the Sutra Pavilions in Lingxin Valley, but she couldn't find anything that caught her eye.
This is not to say that the techniques here are all rubbish.
The several valley-suppressing techniques in Lingxin Valley are pretty good.
But with her current status, she does not have the permission to read it.
Unless she can ascend to the position of Valley Master.
As for the remaining ones, although they are not as good as the Valley-Suppressing Technique of Lingxin Valley, they cannot be said to be inferior.
If it spreads, it will be enough to make most monks fight for their lives.
However, Sikong Yueling really looked down upon these techniques.
She felt that these skills were not worthy of Jiang Fan.
You can't blame her for having too high a vision.
Because the Bingxin Jue she practiced was one of the top techniques in the Tianlan world.
Even the few valley-suppressing techniques in Lingxin Valley are far from comparable.
Once upon a time, it was difficult to find water in the sea.
In comparison, other techniques indeed seem a bit inferior.
In fact, a person from an immortal sect like Lingxin Valley shouldn't have the top skill in Tianlan Realm like Bingxin Jue.
However, the nature of Bing Xin Jue is too special.
Although the level is very high, it is a bad technique.
Basically, all the fairy sects of Tianlan Realm, large and small, are included.
The reason for this is because the physique required to run this kind of technique is too special.
Only the innate water spirit body can fit perfectly.
For a monk who is not an innate water spirit body, cultivation is extremely difficult. Even if the cultivation is successful, it will not be able to function.
If it is forced to run, it will have no effect other than lowering its original combat effectiveness.
The innate water spirit body is an extremely rare spiritual constitution. Generally speaking, it would take decades or even hundreds of years for such a case to appear in the entire Tianlan world.
The senior monks who had perfected this technique, in order to prevent the technique from being lost due to the harsh prerequisites for practice, made countless copies of it and spread them all over the streets.
As Lingxin Valley, which governs the southern region of the eastern region of Tianlan Continent, will naturally not be lacking.
However, in the eyes of the past valley masters of Lingxin Valley, this Bingxin Jue is just a useless technique that is not as good as ordinary techniques.
It's a pity to throw away tasteless food.
In the end, I simply threw it into the pile of ordinary exercises, so that all disciples of Lingxin Valley can read it.
This is also the reason why Sikong Yueling was able to learn such high-level techniques when he first entered the sect.
Jiang Fan, on the other hand, did not have such good luck.
Sikong Yueling went back and forth to pick and choose, but he couldn't get the ones he liked, and he couldn't get the ones he could get.
In the end, she simply put the practice aside for the time being.
After Jiang Fan learned from his senior sister that there was currently no suitable technique for him, he felt a little disappointed.
But his mentality was excellent and he quickly adjusted.
After all, this kind of thing will accompany you throughout your life.
It has the most direct connection with his subsequent growth and combat power.
Therefore, Ning Quemuchao!
Now, I will first learn the spiritual skills and martial arts that my senior sister selected for me.
Therefore, in the next few days, Jiang Fan focused his training on the cultivation of spiritual skills and martial arts.
Spiritual skills are quite easy to learn, you just need to remember how their spiritual power works.
But martial arts is much more difficult.
If you want to learn it, first of all, you have to write down every body movement just like learning ordinary martial arts routines.
Subsequently, you need to integrate these body movements and use them skillfully.
It's not until you naturally let the spiritual power in your body move along with these movements when you move your hands and feet that you can get your first glimpse of martial arts.
If you want to achieve this step with a pure mortal body, you have to start training and polishing your muscles and bones from a young age, which takes a year and a half.
But Jiang Fan was already considered a monk at this time.
Ever since he was able to borrow the spiritual power of the fox demon girl, those spiritual powers have been flowing through the meridians in his body day and night, silently nourishing and transforming his body.
Now, although his physical quality is not as good as that of orthodox monks, it is still far superior to that of ordinary mortals.
Therefore, it only took half a month to successfully reach this point.
The spiritual skill Heavy Water Chain and the martial skill Mud Fist have been learned. If you want to improve their power, you can only persevere and slowly hone your skills with water.
At this stage, Jiang Fan once again adjusted his training time allocation.
The ratio of time he invested in the four different cultivation methods of familiarizing himself with spiritual power, practicing flying skills, practicing spiritual skills, and practicing martial arts was: one to one to two to two.
Since he was already a monk at this time, sleeping was not necessary.
Therefore, in addition to taking an hour out of his day to eat and rest, he basically spent the remaining eleven and a half hours on cultivation.
