In Lu Chen's view, he was at the ninth level of the third level of martial arts in the world, and he was at least the peak of the fifth level. In terms of actual combat power, even the masters of the fourth level who unleashed their true energy were not afraid of him - the true energy thing sounds bluffing. But even the most lethal sword energy is not as powerful as a real knife cutting on the body.
The third level and ninth level of Tianxia Martial Arts, the lower level is for strength training, the middle level is for Qi training, and the upper level is for spiritual training!
Lower-level strength training is divided into three levels: ninth-level training for dead strength, eighth-level training for vitality, and seventh-level training for overall strength.
Doing farm work, lifting heavy objects, or practicing the same movement over and over again, this kind of training will produce ultimate strength.
The muscles trained in this way are quite stiff and can only exert full force in certain specific postures. They cannot exert enough force when changing postures. Sometimes unbalanced muscles will slow down the body's reaction speed.
No matter how powerful this person is, he can only bluff amateurs, but he can't stand up to the real masters.
However, with this strength, you can still fight for your place.
For example, shield-bearers, sword-hands, strong archers, etc. all need such strong men.
They don't need to dodge flexibly. As long as they practice one movement to perfection, they can display their extraordinary power, and their lethality will be extremely shocking when coordinated with the military formation.
Originally, Lu Wu and his five maids were considered to be at this level, and this level was also called the realm of strong men.
An eighth-level person can train his body's strength to the point where he can freely control it, which can be said to be the warrior state - all competitions in the military use real people, and at least those who have reached the eighth-level warrior state can participate. Otherwise, they will not be able to hold back, and they will use their swords during the competition. It would be embarrassing if Paoze was killed;
At the seventh level, one must train one's strength until it can be circulated smoothly, and the whole body can exert force without any dead spots. Only then can it be called the state of a warrior.
Only when you reach the realm of warriors can you wear heavy armor, hold long weapons, and charge into battle on horseback. Otherwise, if you hold a long weapon and cannot move it flexibly, then it will be a waste to go up.
Those who can be called brave generals have at least reached the realm of warriors in their martial arts training - and they often also cultivate internal energy.
Ranks 7, 8 and 9 were originally military titles, but were later used in martial arts.
Most of the so-called masters in the martial arts world are actually at the seventh or eighth level. Only masters who are famous for their bows can gain a foothold in the martial arts world at the ninth rank. Therefore, the bow is also known as the number one weapon among the eighteen.
In terms of strength alone, these people may not be as good as the ninth-grade warriors, and their role in the military formation cannot exceed that of the ninth-grade warriors. However, if they fight alone, they are much stronger than the ninth-grade warriors.
For low-level strength training, you can still practice it with all your strength; for mid-level Qi training, you can't rely on those wild methods without inheritance.
The middle level is also divided into three grades.
The sixth level of Qi refining is also called the realm of true power.
In the realm of true power, you only develop a small amount of inner energy, like a trickle, which cannot be seen by others except yourself. It can only be transported within the body to nourish and moisturize the body.
When this step of kung fu is practiced to a high level, the internal friction of the body can be reduced as if it has been smeared with oil, and the movement and exertion of force can be smooth and smooth. The reason why it is called the realm of true power means that only at this step can one hundred percent of the whole body's strength be exerted. .
The fifth level of Qi refining is called the realm of true strength.
In the realm of true strength, the inner energy is already quite strong, and the body can be blessed through different operation methods, and can display various incredible abilities.
For example, he can jump three feet, fly over walls, strike like lightning, strike like a god, etc.
Masters in the realm of true strength can already display many abilities that exceed the limits of the human body. However, at this point, the internal energy still plays a supporting role and cannot be directly released to injure people.
In Lu Chen's view, the fifth and sixth grade martial arts masters are just that. They are risking their lives with real swords and guns, but there are a group of masters in Songjing who rely on their mouths to refine their Qi. That's nonsense - it's just casual in the army. Select some warriors, put on battle armor, and be sure to kill these 'intermediate masters' until they don't even recognize their motherfuckers.
But it happens that this group of "masters" can occupy high positions in the name of their personal martial arts skills - if they need to fight, there are people below who have to sacrifice their lives, and these people will not take action.
When you reach the fourth level of true energy, the extremely powerful inner energy can be released from the outside of the body and hurt people from a distance - masters at this level rarely rely on bragging, because they really want to show their ability to release true energy. Only then did everyone admit it.
The top masters in the realm of true energy can use skills such as the Hundred-step Divine Fist/Splitting Palm/Sword Energy, etc., and the power of full-strength shots is amazing. They can also attach the true energy to foreign objects - flying flowers and picking leaves can hurt people. This is this state. representative.
However, the true energy is purified from the inner energy, and even the first-class masters cannot use it continuously. Therefore, fourth-level masters can fight in the arena, but if they fall into the battle formation of thousands of troops, they may not be as good as the seventh-level warriors. No matter how strong the military strategists and warriors in this realm are - they will probably die faster.
What everyone usually calls a top-notch master refers to around the fourth level.
As for the upper level third level, it is already in the innate realm. The third level can sense the heaven and earth, the second level heaven and man are one, and the first level internal scenery can be externalized!
Lu Chen didn't know much about the specific situation of the third level. Although the Lu family had sects for generations, there were no ones who could really practice it beyond the innate level.
As for the top and most powerful people in the world who are above the third level and ninth level - Lu Chen said that just listen. These top people in the world are like phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. They don't exist in Wu State. Chu State seems to have a martial arts master and a Xuanmen Taoist priests, but I didn't hear any movement from them.
Martial arts master, military strategist and Taoist priest!
It is now the only road leading to the third level and the ninth level.
The master of martial arts is a first-class master. After the inner scene is transformed externally, the inner family's true energy combines with the vitality of heaven and earth to turn into innate Gang Qi. When the Qi is developed, it becomes a thunder cloth and the Qi becomes a gang, which is indestructible and nothing can break it. Before the innate Qi is exhausted, the martial arts master is invulnerable to water and fire, and no one can stop him.
The fighting generals of the military have refined their weapons into their bodies, and they hate the heavens and the earth without any ring. Their whole body is like fine steel, their endurance is endless, their fighting spirit is heavy and bursting, and equipped with heavy armor, large horses and long soldiers, they are simply living human chariots, capable of breaking through. It is easy to kill generals.
The Xuanmen Taoist priests are mysterious and unpredictable. They refine a breath of true energy into something ethereal, somewhere between existence and non-being, and turn it into an innate energy. The subtlety is difficult to describe, but most of these people are not good at fighting.
Taoist priests and Taoist priests are not the same concept. Although they are somewhat similar, they are more like evolved versions of Taoist priests.
Most of the real Taoist Taoist priests live in seclusion in the mountains and are not stained by the world of mortals. Ninety-nine percent of those who appear in the world of mortals under the guise of Taoist Taoist priests are liars.
And the very few true Taoist priests who have joined the world are also good at observing the wind to determine fortune, praying for rain and attracting wind - occasionally there are some who are famous for refining aphrodisiacs.
Logically speaking, such a person who has nothing to do with the world should not be rated as a peak powerhouse above the third level and ninth level.
But in this world, there was once a Taoist priest who was forced by a certain martial arts master to refine some kind of elixir.
The cornered Xuanmen Taoist priest spat out white light in anger and killed the martial arts master in front of everyone - only then did the world know that among the Xuanmen magic, there is also a method of practicing sword training into the body. technique.
In particular, this amazing swordsmanship that can kill martial arts masters is actually just a heretic method among Xuanmen Taoist priests to protect oneself and overcome disasters, and is not taken seriously by Xuanmen people.
