64. Sparring
Without saying anything all the way, Xu Mengyao shyly followed Ling Long and obediently returned home.
With a light cough, Ling Long took the lead in breaking the silence: "Now that I have learned to absorb qi, is it necessary to practice martial arts next?"
As soon as she heard about the exercises, Xu Mengyao cheered up, glanced at Ling Long, and said angrily: "Although Naqi is just an entry, it is not so easy to master...... Now you just understand the principle of its movement, and you have to make the Qi Absorption Method completely your daily breathing method, and this is the only way to really master it!"
"Fit into the everyday?"
"That's right, that is to say, in addition to your deliberate use of qi, on weekdays, whether you eat, talk, walk, or use your abilities, you must run the method of qi absorption at the same time, and over time, you will subconsciously replace normal breathing with qi when you sleep, as long as you do this level, you will be considered a practitioner. ”
Ling Long was listening to Xu Mengyao's explanation while also observing her breathing pattern, and sure enough, she had completely changed her normal breathing to the qi absorption method.
"Of course, this is not something that can be done overnight, it takes a long time...... But you're less than five days away from the game, so all you need to do is successfully use the Qi Absorption method during the fight. ”
Nodding, Ling Long adjusted his breathing rate, trying his best to use the qi absorption method to breathe during his actions, but seemingly simple things were extremely difficult to do, and if he didn't pay attention to the state of qi absorption that he had managed to maintain, it would be interrupted by distraction.
Xu Mengyao went back to the house to change into her practice clothes, and her action made Ling Long feel a big headache - is this the rhythm of pumping me again?
By the time Xu Mengyao had changed her clothes, Ling Long felt that she seemed to be slowly getting used to doing some simple body movements and gestures in a state of qi absorption, as long as she was not distracted by other things, she could maintain her state of qi absorption.
Speaking of which, the breathing method of the ancient martial arts of the Xu family is indeed worthy of its reputation, Ling Long, a half-hanger who has just started learning, feels that his mental power has been significantly improved after successfully performing it, especially when he is completely focused on doing one thing, that state is like opening the door to a new world, both vague and clear, and it seems that everything has begun to become more thorough in his eyes.
"Good, that's what we're going to learn tonight...... Integrate the Qi Absorption Method into battle. ”
Xu Mengyao arranged classes for Ling Long like a female teacher.
Realizing the benefits that the Qi Absorption Method brought to the body, Ling Long was in high spirits and prepared with all his hands: "How to fuse?"
"Of course it's going to be a real battle!" Xu Mengyao laughed evilly, "But unlike the afternoon practice, this time I will use the Yin and Yang Escape ......"
Ling Long opened his mouth wide: "You want to use your ability to fight me?"
"Don't say it, I seem to be bullying you!" Xu Mengyao patted Ling Long on the shoulder, "The root of Yin Yang Dun is a realm that you enter after integrating qi, breath holding, and martial arts, and practice with me, you may be able to realize something new between offense and defense." ”
Although Xu Mengyao was reasonable no matter what she said, Ling Long just felt that something seemed wrong, but after thinking about it, she couldn't figure it out, so she could only reluctantly agree in the end.
"Look at it. Xu Mengyao took a deep breath and posed the starting style of the Xu family's ancient martial arts.
Carefully observing Xu Mengyao's every move, Ling Long's eyes changed slightly, he couldn't feel it before, but now after practicing the method of absorbing qi, he found that when Xu Mengyao entered the Yin and Yang Retreat, his breath was getting smaller and smaller, and in the end, Ling Long couldn't even feel any breath up and down Xu Mengyao's Zhou Shen.
After completely entering the state of yin and yang, Xu Mengyao's eyes were extremely ethereal, not the concentrated appearance that Ling Long imagined, on the contrary, at this time, she was as quiet as a flower, a pine, and a wall, and had completely entered the realm of selfless ancient martial arts.
Seeing Xu Mengyao's state at the moment, Ling Long said secretly: "No wonder the Qi Acceptance Method is the introductory foundation of Yin and Yang Escape...... The breath guides the body, the body changes the breath, then the breath changes the state, and finally the state ascends to the realm ......"
"From breathing to realm, all exercises and martial arts complement each other, and thousands of changes are interlocking...... The secret technique of the ancient martial arts family really deserves its reputation!" Ling Long couldn't help but praise him, and he was also envious that Xu Mengyao could get such a powerful ability.
With her eyes flowing, Xu Mengyao stuck in front of Ling Long with a single step: "Make a move......
In fact, Xu Mengyao also took this opportunity to hone her skills, training Ling Long while also improving her own strength. The scene of the previous battle with Wu You is still vivid, and it is even more difficult for her to maintain the state of yin and yang escape throughout the battle.
It's not nonsense, Ling Long raised his fist and struck, and at the same time, he also kept in mind what Xu Mengyao said, and tried to maintain a state of acceptance while fighting.
"Pay attention to the rhythm of your breathing, and ...... slower" Xu Mengyao easily dodged Ling Long's heavy punch and opened her mouth to remind at the same time.
Originally, Xu Mengyao's Yin Yang Escape required users to concentrate 100% and improve their fighting spirit, but at this time, she needed to keep opening her mouth to point at Ling Long, and her realm state had already dropped by seventy-seven-eighty-eight.
But even so, Xu Mengyao's strength in hand-to-hand combat is still not comparable to Ling Long's, no matter how he punches, Xu Mengyao can easily dodge, and even take the time to reach out to correct Ling Long's offensive posture.
Ling Long threw punches several times without reservation, he knew that Xu Mengyao's melee strength was above him, and he had already experienced it personally when he was in X City before. But now that he is fighting face-to-face, he realizes that his hand-to-hand combat strength with this girl is simply very different, and he is not at the same level at all!
"Don't breathe chaotically!" Xu Mengyao blocked Ling Long's punch that hit her in the face, "Don't panic in your heart, you have to be steady all the time." ”
After several hours of repeated practice, Ling Long finally found a little trick, although he was not yet proficient, but at the same time he could successfully make the qi absorption method no longer break the gear, which was already a qualitative change for him.
After changing out of her practice clothes, Xu Mengyao was also drenched in sweat: "I want to fetch water and take a bath, and you can ponder it yourself." ”
Helped Xu Mengyao boil a few pots of boiling water, and Ling Long felt sore as she lay on the sofa.
Yin and Yang Escape belongs to the secret art of the Xu family, and he as an outsider can't learn the essence of it anyway, but this Qi Absorption Method is very subtle, which can make the user's attention highly concentrated while fighting, and can also save unnecessary physical exertion......
Ling Long thought, maybe he could really follow Xu Mengyao to learn the exercises in the ancient martial arts in the future, although he couldn't reach the supreme realm of selflessness like Yin Yang Dun, but for himself who was thin and had not been systematically trained, this was undoubtedly the best melee fighting move.
"It seems that I really have to pay some tuition fees when I have time......" After thinking about it, Ling Long felt that it was indeed a bit inauthentic to learn the martial arts of other people's people all the time......
