Chapter II

More than a month later.

The boulder gate, the backyard, the dormitory area of the outer disciples.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" ......

A handsome boy of twelve or thirteen years old was constantly punching fiercely around a huge cowhide sandbag more than one person high, and his fists were heavy and heavy, shaking the huge sandbag.

Sweat continued to spill from the boy's forehead and cheeks, soaking the clothes on his chest and back, and he looked as if he had been waterlogged.

“979,980,981…… 999…… 1000!" At the last blow, the boy let out a low roar from his mouth, charged his strength, rushed forward, and punched out, knocking the huge sandbag three or four meters away.

He sighed, picked up the towel on the shelf, and wiped the sweat from his body indiscriminately, showing a little joy on the young man's face.

"Finally broke through to the Tongli realm," Li Mingyu said secretly in his heart.

That's right, this teenager is Li Mingyu, who has been in the business for more than a month.

It only took seven or eight days after the entry, and Li Mingyu and the other teenagers practiced the moves of the introductory stone crushing boxing method extremely proficiently. When the disciples dismantle each other's moves, after encountering an attack, they will no longer instinctively close their eyes and dodge and retreat like ordinary people, but subconsciously use the moves in the boulder circle to counterattack.

At this time, the head of the Fu sect, that is, the swarthy man who had lectured the teenagers before, began to let the teenagers work in pairs and beat each other's bodies with wooden sticks tied with cotton cloth. This is also to exercise the ability of these disciples to resist blows, after all, people who practice martial arts will inevitably be hit with one punch or two kicks when fighting with others, if they are hit by so many blows because of insufficient resistance to blows, they will lose the power to fight back because of severe pain, and then they can only be slaughtered by others.

In addition, the most important thing is strength training, Li Mingyu and other teenagers, from the first day of entry, have to hit sandbags 300 times a day, ten days later increased to 600 times, a month later increased to 1,000 times.

In the words of the swarthy man, that is, the head of the Fu sect, the level of forging the body is just the first small realm of the three levels of martial arts entry, which can be said to be the foundation of the foundation of the martial arts road, and there is no need for such tricks at all. No matter how good the subtle moves are, you rookies can't use them, and whoever really fights has more strength and harder fists, and whoever reacts faster and resists blows stronger, will be able to have more advantages and gain the upper hand in the fight, and it will be easier to win.

"I know you hairy boys, don't always fantasize about anything, such as getting a book of magic secrets, practicing for a few years and then going out of the mountains to be invincible in the world, don't dream! When your physical fitness is not up to it, and you can't even control your own strength and blood, no matter how many magic cheats you have, it's just a piece of waste paper, and it's not even as good as ordinary breathing methods. ”

At this time, according to each person's physical fitness, the strength limit that can be achieved through systematic training is also different.

For example, Li Mingyu and these teenagers, because they are not yet adults, their physical fitness is quite different from ordinary people, about 100-200 forces, and adults are about 200-300 forces, of course, those who are gifted and can even reach 400-500 forces are very few.

Li Mingyu reached the limit of his strength more than ten days ago, and his punching power was around 160-180 force, and this kind of physical fitness should be able to rank in the middle of their group of teenagers.

And after forging the body, the martial artist can start to try to control his own power, that is, the second small realm of the three levels of martial arts entry, the Tongli realm.

According to Fu Jiaotou's explanation, before the Tongli Realm, the Forging Body Realm and ordinary people's use of their own strength was very superficial, and there was a huge waste, for example, the body contained ten percent of the power, while ordinary people could only exert one or two percent, or even lower.

As long as a martial artist enters the Tongli Realm, he can control three to four percent of the power contained in his body, and when he reaches the Tongli Realm, he can even emit eight to ninety percent of the power contained in his body. Really do a punch has a thousand powers, about 1000 punches out, even a huge buffalo can be killed with one punch, ordinary people are injured when touched, and they die next to each other.

"Fu Jiaotou described the Tongli realm very profoundly, in fact, it is just training his own power skills, the queen mother once said that all the power emitted by the body comes from muscles. Ordinary people who have not been trained can only mobilize one or two percent of their muscles when they exert force, while athletes who have undergone scientific training can mobilize seventy or eighty percent of the muscles of the whole body.

Although I don't understand the specific meaning of science and athletes, this statement is obviously much more superficial than the so-called control of the source of power contained in the body. As long as you train, the more muscles you mobilize when you exert force, the more power you emit. ”

Lee Ming-woo gave it a try.

Sure enough, after less than a month, he successfully mastered the technique of mobilizing more muscles to exert force, and touched the doorway of the Tongli realm.

However, this technique has a process of thinking and accumulating strength, and if you want to be able to punch 300-400 forces as Fu Jiaotou said, you still need to spend a period of time and practice repeatedly, and then you can really enter the Tongli realm.

However, at this time, he was qualified to go to the head of the Fu sect to learn deeper content, such as exercises that were stronger than the Gravel Fist and the breathing method that he mentioned many times in his mouth.

"Little Liu, I'm still practicing gravel boxing, I'm about to start eating, let's go to the cafeteria! If it's late, everything delicious will be robbed, and then I can only gnaw on coarse steamed buns." ”

At this time, a slightly chubby young man who was also wearing the clothes of a gray outer disciple like Li Mingyu hurriedly ran over and said.

This young man's name is Zhou Fugui, and his family runs a restaurant in Pingyang Mansion, because he is a little fat, everyone calls him Zhou Fat. Because the two were assigned to a group by the head of the Fu sect and often practiced against each other, Zhou Pang also became one of the few teenagers among these teenagers who had a good relationship with Li Mingyu.

Zhou Pang ran to the canteen and found that there were already three or four teenagers sitting there waiting for the meal to start.

"There are people who are more active in eating than me Zhou Fugui! It's all your fault Xiaoliu, if I hadn't delayed me, I would definitely be the first to come to the canteen," Zhou Pang said with some resentment, pulling Li Mingyu to sit down on the side.

For Zhou Fat's positive spirit of fighting for the first place again, after getting along for many days, Li Mingyu has long been surprised, and he didn't pay attention to him, silently recalling the feeling when he hit the punch in the Kone realm before.

At this time, the kitchen master, who wore a white coat and hat, began to move the prepared meal outside.

Braised pork, spicy tofu, roasted beans, boiled eggs, multigrain steamed buns.

Among them, hard dishes such as braised pork, spicy tofu, and roasted beans are all moved out in barrels, pots of boiled eggs, and large steamed buns with grains are packed in large baskets.

"Great, I'm eating braised pork again today!" Seeing a large bucket of braised pork being brought out, Zhou Fat's eyes immediately looked straight at it, and he couldn't move it.

"Zhou Fat, don't you say that when you were at home, didn't you just eat meat every day, why have you eaten for so many years, and you haven't eaten enough!" said a swarthy and tall young man.

Juvenile Chai, because the person in life is tall and big, everyone has called him Chai Dazhuang since he was a child, just like Li Mingyu Xiaoliu, everyone doesn't remember the big name, and he is also one of the friends who get along well with Li Mingyu.

"Chai Dazhuang, what do you know, you stupid, how can you eat enough meat, just like water, can you not drink it for a day?" Chen Pang said disdainfully, looking like you don't even understand this simple truth.

Hearing the metaphor of Chen Pang's image, Li Mingyu, Chai Da and other teenagers around him were amused.

Due to the physical strength consumed by practicing martial arts every day, although Li Mingyu and his teenagers are not very old, the amount of food is not small.

Li Mingyu himself ate half a big bowl, almost seven or eight taels (half a catty) of braised pork, three taels of multigrain steamed buns in one go, two boiled eggs, and a large bowl of beef and sheep bones and more than ten herbs to nourish qi and blood and strengthen muscles and bones.

These teenagers are growing their bodies, and they have to exercise hard every day to practice martial arts, without a lot of meat and medicinal materials, and where is the nutrition for them to transform into strength, qi and blood through exercise, in the final analysis, when practicing martial arts, especially when they have such a big foundation, it is a process of refining and refining qi.

Meat, medicinal herbs and other nutrients are fundamental, not to mention that if you want to practice martial arts well, the greater the amount of exercise, the greater the damage to the body, and even the body will get worse and worse, and even practice vomiting blood to train the body down.

How else can it be said that the poor are rich in martial arts, the poor have no money, and if they want to study, they can go to audit, borrow books, copy books, as for martial arts, you are poor and can't even afford to eat, where do you have the money to buy meat and medicinal materials to take care and exercise!

Therefore, only those who have heard of the champions of the poor family have heard of which cold family can produce military generals.

Li Mingyu and they have meat, eggs, and medicinal herbs to eat the way to eat, different landlords and rich families can't afford to eat, and it costs tens of thousands of taels of silver to feed these teenagers for a month.

Therefore, the Jushi Gate stipulates that if these outer disciples who have just started out, if they can't break through to the Tongli realm within three months to half a year, they can only be sent home by leaving the gang. People who do not work hard and are not qualified are not qualified to accept the support of gangs that spend a lot of resources.

After dinner, Li Mingyu did not wash up and go back to the room to rest like other teenagers, but left the dormitory area and walked through the courtyard to a courtyard in the southeast corner of the boulder gate

Walking into the small courtyard, I saw a stout man with bare arms and only a pair of black practice pants, practicing a set of powerful boxing techniques with fists and feet. Seeing Li Mingyu come in, he didn't care, but continued to practice seriously with punches and kicks, until he almost had a cup of tea, and the swarthy man slowly exhaled and called it a day.

"You came to me so soon, how did you break through to the Kone Realm!" the swarthy man said casually while wiping the sweat on his body with a towel.

"It's all thanks to the teachings of the sect leader, and the disciple has finally broken through to the Tongli realm today," Li Mingyu bowed and said calmly.

As an elder, the head of the Fu sect can behave in a non-formal manner and be arrogant, but they can't be reckless and rude when they are disciples.

"You can break through to the Tongli realm in more than a month, and you can rank in the top five in your batch of addresses, which can be regarded as having some qualifications for martial arts", he nodded reluctantly, which can be regarded as a compliment to Li Mingyu.

However, what made Li Mingyu pay attention was that the head of the Fu sect said that his breakthrough speed could be ranked in the top five among this batch of beginner disciples, which was a bit unexpected by Li Mingyu, and he felt that he could at least mix in the top three.

It seems that the qualifications of their group of teenagers are stronger than he expected, you must know that he can break through the Tongli Realm so quickly, but he has used a tricky method. It seems that his qualifications are far worse than those real martial arts geniuses, and he can't get carried away because of this trivial achievement now.

Seeing Li Mingyu's calm attitude, the head of the Fu sect nodded with satisfaction.

He said, "Use all your strength, punch me, and let me see how good you are at your current level."

"Okay, please advise the head of the Fu sect!"

Li Mingyu was also not polite, opened the stance, charged punches, and thought that he had played all his strength.

But he didn't expect to be grasped by the head of the Fu Sect, and he didn't say anything about causing any damage to others, and he didn't even blush.

"En's strength is average, but his understanding is not bad, this punch has almost hit forty percent of the strength in his body, and it is good to be able to have this level as soon as he enters the Tongli realm!"

Seeing that Li Mingyu was a little discouraged, as if he expected what he was thinking, Fu Jiaotou explained with a faint smile, "Don't feel that your strength is smaller than that of your peers, you feel lost, you are talented, and your strength is outstanding, but it is just to take advantage of others when fighting with others in the small three levels of forging and kone."

The small three levels are only the introductory stage of martial arts, and the children of the family and the famous factions will not waste time in this basic stage, only by mastering the strength and qi and blood of the body as soon as possible, and feeling the sense of qi, can it be regarded as a real introduction to martial arts.

In our Jushi Gate, only when the outer disciples perceive the inner qi can they be regarded as the backbone of the inner gate, and they are qualified to enter the inner gate and practice more advanced exercises.

What's the use of having a lot of strength, compared with ordinary people, it even seems to take advantage of it when fighting with people in the forging realm, but when it comes to the strength and qi and blood realm, because the strength is too great, it is more difficult to control one's own strength and qi and blood, and it seems to take advantage of some advantages, but in fact, it is not worth it. ”

Seeing that Li Mingyu showed a slightly thoughtful expression, the head of the Fu sect nodded with satisfaction.

"I see that your qualifications are not bad, if you are willing to endure hardships, there is still hope within three years, and you can feel the sense of qi and enter the inner door. Otherwise, they can only leave the general rudder like those ordinary outer disciples, and be arranged to work in the rudder of the following counties, or even in the shop, which seems to be a bit powerful, but in fact it is just a thug and an outcast......

seemed to think of his own experience, the head of the Fu sect complained a lot, and then realized that he was a little speechless, and he shouldn't talk too much with a newcomer like Li Mingyu, so he changed the topic again.

"Okay, now that you have broken through the Kone Realm, you can be regarded as passing the assessment, and you have truly become an outer disciple of my Jushi Gate, and you are qualified to practice the "Qi Harvesting Breathing Method", now I will tell you about the methods and tricks ......of breathing method cultivation."

……

A few days later

In a simple wooden house, Li Mingyu had no intention of facing the sky, sitting cross-legged on the bed, his eyes slightly closed, and he breathed regularly, but only a few minutes later, the rhythm of his breath was broken, and he couldn't help but show a look of disappointment, so he had to stop cultivating.

"Failed again......"

Li Mingyu sighed and muttered.

But he quickly picked himself up again, took a piece of paper from his bosom, and studied it carefully.

The thick piece of hard paper, which was bigger than a palm, was densely packed with unfamiliar words the size of a fly's head. The strokes are crooked and similar to the seal characters of the Tang world.

This is the writing of this world, Li Mingyu's memory is that his predecessor only studied in a private school in the village for a few years, and he did not learn this kind of writing. It is said that at that time, the three kingdoms of the East China Sea Qi, Fujian and Lan were still one country, called Zhan, and the powerful Zhan was only one of the subject countries of Great Xia.

After studying the contents of the paper leaf for a while, Li Mingyu stopped and fell into deep thought.

The hundreds of words on this piece of paper are all the content of "Qi Harvesting and Breathing Method", because Xia Wenjian is deep and obscure, Li Mingyu also spent several days asking the head of the Fu sect for advice, and finally relied on rote memorization to barely memorize it.

However, although the content of this "Qi Harvesting and Breathing Method" is not much, it seems to be simple and really cultivated, but it is found to be extremely difficult.

The first step is to enter the country, and this first step takes half an hour to control the chaotic thoughts in your mind, and barely make your mind empty. After entering the country, I repeatedly visualize the moment when the red sun rises, and at the same time, with an extremely complex method of breathing, absorb the purple qi of the red sun rising that I imagined in my mind.

In this way, one mind and two uses, visualizing, exhaling, contemplating and relieving, the body and mind are one, and the concentration is concentrated, so that a coherent and orderly rhythm is formed. As soon as there is the slightest distraction and the coherent rhythm is broken, it is necessary to meditate again and start again.

In the past two days, Li Mingyu has tried more than a dozen times, and the longest one only lasted for about half an hour (about seven or eight minutes), and his mind was extremely tired and he couldn't hold on.

"If you want to persist until more than a quarter of an hour every time and reach the entry level, as the head of Fu Jiaotou said, in addition to having a strong mental will, you need to practice continuously for a long time, at least a month or even three months.

As for cultivating to the end of the year, every time I practice, I can persist for more than an hour, one year, two years...... Even the three years they have been practicing in this outer gate may not be enough.

Practicing the breathing method for a long time, in addition to regulating the qi, blood and qi, and repairing the body injuries caused by the cultivation of stone crushing fist and hard skills, more importantly, it can strengthen the qi of the five organs, making it easier for the martial artist to feel the existence of qi, and there is a greater chance of catching the ethereal trace of qi.

However, if you want to feel the sense of qi, according to what the head of the Fu sect said, in addition to the most basic to achieve the perfection of the qi and blood realm, it is more important that the breathing method should be able to persist for at least one hour or more, and it is best to have the assistance of pills, even if the probability of breaking through to the qi sense realm is only five to sixty percent.

However, the Qi Sense Realm or something, it is still too early for Li Mingyu, he has just entered the Tongli Realm now, and he is not afraid that the breathing method is too difficult or something, he still has time to take his time.

……

In the blink of an eye, more than two months have passed.

A few days ago, these new outer disciples went through an assessment, and almost half of them were sent home because they couldn't break through the Tongli realm within three months and couldn't meet the standard of staying in the Giant Stone Gate.

At this time, there were only twenty-three teenagers left at the outer gate, and although the number was smaller, everyone's sense of urgency was stronger. After all, three years later, there is an even more important assessment, whether to stay in the inner sect to practice the real secret method, or to be sent out to be an ordinary service disciple, there is a world of difference between the two, especially if the teenagers do not pay attention to it.

Besides, even if these teenagers are not sensible, will the parents and families behind them still not understand, without seeing the urging of the family, even Chen Fat, who is the most careless in martial arts, began to become diligent, unlike before when he only focused on eating.

……

Martial arts arena.

"Bang" "Bang...... There was a dull sound of blows

Grow a little taller, well...... Chen Xiaopang, who had gained a lot of weight, brandished a purple shirt long stick that was taller than him and the thickness of a baby's wrist, and kept whipping Li Mingyu's chest, back, legs and arms and other non-lethal parts.

"456,457......" The purple shirt wood was long and heavy, and after a few strong whips, Chen Xiaopang was already tired and sweaty, and he was out of breath.

On the other hand, Li Mingyu, although his body was drawn with a piece of blue and a piece of purple, and even some places were high and swollen due to congestion, he still straightened his chest and stomach, gritted his teeth with breath in his mouth, and let the sweat mixed with blood scatter on the ground drop by drop.

"500, it's finally over, I'm almost dead, the first time I found out that beating people is so tired!" Zhou Xiaopang threw the long stick to the side, sat on the ground with his buttocks, and gasped.

Li Mingyu was also almost at the limit at this time, after dispersing the hard qigong, his whole body seemed to be scattered, and the injured part was even more painful, although he wanted to lie on the ground and rest regardless of it. However, he gritted his teeth and persevered, picked up a small jar from the shelf next to him, took out the brown ointment with herbal fragrance inside, grinned at the pain, and applied the ointment to the affected area little by little.

After the body is boiled, if there is no secret medicine to nourish and repair the body, the cultivation will not only be half the effort, but it will only damage the body for a long time.

After entering the Kone Realm, outer disciples like them, in addition to the Stone Breaker Fist, can also choose another secret book to cultivate. Li Mingyu thought about it again and again, but chose to cultivate, the most painful and slowest stone armor skill, an outer door body protection hard skill!
