The day after he broke through the eighth level of body training, Lin Yansheng approached Qingyu.
"Oh, have you broken through? The progress is good."
After hearing that Lin Yansheng had broken through to the eighth level of body training, Qingyu smiled and nodded, but there was not much surprise on his face. It was obvious that Lin Yansheng's advance was within his expectation.
But this "expected" was only Qingyu's "expected."
You must know that the fifth level after physical training, because it belongs to a deeper level of physical training, is much more difficult to break through than the first five levels. The seventh to eighth levels, if Zhang Junxi were to come, if there were no With the support of the Zhang family's massive resources, it would take only half a year.
But Lin Shengxuan only took about half a month.
If this speed were revealed, it would be enough to scare the entire Tiannan County warriors!
"Well, as I have deepened my control over the ability to absorb spirit beads in the past half month, my cultivation speed has increased a bit."
There was also no sign of complacency on Lin Yansheng's face. After all, his body had already been refined by the Lingzhu, and all the bottlenecks in the physical training realm had been cleared. In addition, the Lingzhu's training auxiliary function and his own Given his talent, it is actually reasonable for him to be able to break through so quickly.
This can be seen from Qingyu's calm reaction.
"Master, you told me before that as soon as I reach the eighth level of body training, you will teach me the Soul Step. What about us now?" Lin Yansheng quickly got to the point and cautiously made a request to Qingyu.
Judging from his cautious look, he was afraid that the latter would break his promise. After all, Lin Yansheng could clearly see Qingyu's hesitation that day.
Upon hearing this request, Qingyu did not answer immediately. He just narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Lin Yansheng without any waves, without giving a reply for a long time.
No!
Looking at Qingyu like this, Lin Yansheng's heart skipped a beat. Looking at this attitude, could the master really want to go back on his word?
In the past half month, although he has been mainly cultivating his vitality, he will also take time to look at the cultivation method of the "Soul Step". The complexity of this "Soul Step" is indeed well-deserved.
Different from the body-building and tendon-changing technique, which can be said to be simple and straightforward, the soul-stepping martial arts technique reveals mystery and obscurity in every word. When he observed his martial arts techniques and mental methods in the past two days, it was almost like It's like reading a book from heaven.
And it was also because this method was so mysterious that Lin Shengsheng himself didn't know where to start practicing it.
To put it simply, this thing is too difficult and he can't practice it by himself...
So if Qingyu really goes back on her word and doesn't plan to teach him anymore, and if he has to figure it out alone... it might be very difficult.
"Giggle, don't worry, silly boy, your master will never break his promise. He has found the venue in the past two days."
Seeing Lin Yansheng's stiff expression, Ye Chunyu showed a hint of teasing on her face and smiled sweetly.
"Hmph, brat."
A smile finally appeared on Qingyu's jade-like face. He held Ye Chunyu's voluptuous body with one hand, rested his head on the two round balls on her chest, and waved his other hand gently. :
"Let's go, start now!"
The two of them went straight out of Xiaoyue City, and Qingyu led Lin Shengsheng to a clearing in the forest.
The open space is circular, only seven or eight feet in diameter. It is surrounded by tall trees, with patches of green hanging down, blocking out the biting cold wind.
"Well...that's it. I've been looking for it for several days, but there are few people here and there's plenty of room for action."
In the open space, Qingyu looked at the surrounding environment, nodded with satisfaction, and smiled at Lin Shenxin.
Lin Yansheng was also looking at this place curiously. Out of caution, he had not left the inn in Xiaoyue City for half a month, let alone left the city. When he came here, he suddenly felt like seeing the light of day again. .
It's just that although this place is well concealed...it can be used for body training...isn't it too small?
Lin Yansheng looked at the open space with some doubts in his heart. With a diameter of six to seven feet, that's only about twenty meters. Let alone a warrior, it would only take three or four breaths for a mortal with a slightly better physique to rush over.
"Shen Sheng, what do you think is the most important thing in practicing body and martial arts?"
Seemingly sensing Lin Yansheng's doubts, Qingyu asked with a smile.
"Is it...speed?"
After thinking briefly, Lin Yansheng said with some uncertainty.
It is said that the only martial art in the world is fast. If you want to display the most exquisite body skills, speed is a must.
"That's right. Speed is indeed a very important factor in body skills, but... body skills and martial arts are not necessarily faster."
"Shenfa Shenfa mainly depends on the word "fa", which is the method of controlling speed."
"In addition, speed is not just the speed at which you move."
Qingyu said this and took a deep breath: "Watch it!"
Just when Lin Yansheng was still thinking carefully about Qingyu's words, Qingyu moved.
A wave of vitality like a breeze blew past Qingyu. At that moment, as his footsteps changed, Qingyu's figure began to become blurry. He seemed to be standing in a different time and space. , there is only a vague afterimage left in this world.
Step after step, Qingyu's body began to twist in that fast and slow movement, ethereal and intangible.
His speed was not so fast that Lin Yansheng could not see clearly. On the contrary, Lin Yansheng could see the trajectory of every movement he made, but when these movements were connected together, he could not keep up with Qingyu's footsteps. .
Every one of his movements clearly fell on Lin Shengyan's eye mask, but they were like illusions in the wind, dissipating before anyone could recall them.
Gradually, Lin Yansheng suddenly felt dizzy. He seemed to be lost in Qingyu's steps!
"How about it?"
But just when Lin Yansheng was feeling dizzy, Qingyu stopped, gently pinched Lin Yansheng's earlobe, and asked with a smile.
Qingyu's voice was gentle, and it seemed to contain a strange magic power, which directly brought Lin Xian's consciousness back.
Lin Yansheng, who finally turned around, didn't know what to say. He looked at Qingyu blankly. Qingyu's magical steps just now really shocked him.
Is this the Soul Step?
"Actually, martial arts skills are not as broad as you think, and you can travel thousands of miles in the blink of an eye."
Qingyu looked at Lin Yansheng's reaction, chuckled, and began to popularize knowledge for Lin Yansheng.
"On the contrary, some martial arts techniques do not actually pursue extreme speed, but mainly pursue skills, such as this Soul Step."
"This type of martial arts may not seem to have the momentum of opening and closing, but it can move thousands of times in a small space. There are countless techniques in it. It is really endlessly changing. In terms of subtlety, it is not as good as those of those quick movements. Not even the slightest bit weaker!"
Lin Yansheng was dumbfounded as he heard what Qingyu said were areas he had never touched before.
But I have to admit that what Qingyu said does make sense.
Taking the soul-stepping step as an example, according to the martial arts information obtained by Lin Dereng, the soul-stepping step is divided into three realms: mysterious step, self-control, and delusion of the mind.
Among these three realms, the first level is just basic steps, the second level is about controlling the subtleties of oneself, and the third level is considered to be a master of cultivation.
According to the information recorded in his mind, if you practice this soul-stepping step to the second level, you can become like a ghost, ethereal and invisible, and no one can see it. Although it can only move within a few inches, even if it is attacked by thousands of blades, it will be difficult to move. its body.
As for the third level, you can use footwork to confuse the opponent and make the opponent gradually lose space. It also represents the meaning of "stepping on the soul." Of course, this level is something that Lin Shengsheng will not have to think about in the short term.
But that's enough, think about it, if this kind of footwork is used in a fight, the feeling of being close but unable to attack will definitely drive the opponent crazy!
"Hey...hehe!"
As if thinking of that scene, Lin Yansheng felt extremely happy. If he could master this soul-stepping step, he would still be afraid of Zhang Junxi!
When the time comes, I will just treat him like a monkey!
Thinking of this, the corners of Lin Yansheng's lips began to curl up involuntarily.
"What? Have you thought about it?"
Lin Yansheng's smile made Qingyu confused, but he still asked.
"Ah...ah! I understand, Master, please do it a few more times and let's continue practicing."
Lin Yansheng said impatiently, while opening his eyes wide to watch Qingyu's next move carefully.
"practice?"
Qingyu rolled his eyes: "Didn't I just walk it once? Don't you know the footwork? You can walk it yourself and let me see."
ha?
Take a walk... by yourself?
Hearing Qingyu's words, Lin Yansheng's eyes suddenly became even bigger.
Just now he felt that this soul-stepping step was mysterious and unparalleled, but it would be strange to say that he really saw something useful!
If Qingyu hadn't told him in advance that he was demonstrating the Soul Stepping Footwork, he might even have thought he was dazzled.
Although Qingyu's movements just now were not very fast... But it was like listening to his teacher's lecture when he was in private school. He could understand every word, but if they were connected...
That's really disturbing.
However, Qingyu ignored the increasingly exciting expression on Lin Yansheng's face, folded his hands on his chest, and looked at him quietly.
"Oh... okay."
However, Lin Yansheng also knew that Qingyu wanted to experience the feeling of the soul-stepping step for himself, so after complaining secretly, he began to compare the soul-stepping step in his mind with some of the steps he had just memorized. The actions were compared.
After pondering for a few breaths, Lin Yansheng gritted his teeth, then took steps forward, reluctantly demonstrating the soul-stepping movement in the open space. Of course, his movement was seriously out of shape, and there was no sense of illusion at all.
"Master..."
After finishing a set of steps, Lin Shengsheng looked at Qingyu with some anxiety. This time, he didn't need Qingyu to say anything, he knew that his walking would be ugly.
However, Qingyu didn't laugh at anything this time. He looked at Lin Shengsheng carefully for a while and said lightly: "It's not bad. After all, it's my first time to leave, so I barely did a good job."
Lin Yansheng didn't know what to say with this comment. Qingyu's words were too routine, or in other words, he was obviously trying to save face for himself.
However, this step is really difficult.
