There is a wise saying in the cultivation world, called "Baitong is not as good as one fine", which means that it is better to know a hundred than to specialize in one. This is the same as being greedy and chewing too much, it is a taboo in cultivation, and it often appears in low-level martial artists, and it has little impact at the beginning, but the more advanced the cultivation, the more it suffers, and the combat power cannot be exerted, but it is also weakened.

Qi An fell into such a predicament, he either abandoned what he had learned and specialized in a martial art, or he could only absorb the strengths of a hundred schools of thought, forcibly integrate them, and create a martial art suitable for himself.

The former is that others have walked out of a road, and you only need to follow this road to reach the destination, while the latter is that there are thousands of roads in front of you, and how to choose is all up to you, but once you go wrong, you will lose your way, be trapped in an area, and you can't get around.

Undoubtedly, the latter is countless times more difficult than the former.

It is very difficult to learn from the strengths of hundreds of schools, but it is actually difficult to do it, and it is even more difficult to integrate them.

Each kind of martial arts carries the concept of the creator, and it is difficult to achieve consistency in the thoughts and cognitions between people, and there are often even completely contradictory situations, such as the two are recognized as quite clever martial arts, one is to say "the world's martial arts, only fast is not broken", and the other is to say "the last to come, to fight fast with slow", so who should be listened to?

There are so many arguments that contradict each other, just like refining the body and refining qi, they are also two completely different cultivation systems, refining qi cultivation is faster, and refining body seems to be stronger, no point of view is completely wrong, and conversely, it can be said that no point of view is absolutely correct.

A large number of contradictory theories are flooded, the so-called absorption of the strengths of a hundred schools of thought is a joke for the vast majority of people, and the integration is even more difficult, take the two sets of fast and slow martial arts just now as an example, one set of strengths is fast, the other set of strengths is slow, completely opposite, how should you learn from the strengths? should it be fast or slow? how to harmoniously coexist between fast and slow? how to deal with the relationship between the two?

Of course, this just shows that it is very difficult, not impossible, and there are still a lot of people who have done it, but all of them are heroes among people, and they are unparalleled in wisdom and bravery. Although the path chosen by Qi An is difficult, once it succeeds, it is definitely not a thing in the pool, and it is definitely the strongest of the strong in the same realm, but this road is too bumpy and very easy for people to walk.

However, Qi An had watched the battles of various masters in the ring competition of the Backing Mountain Branch, and had the personal practice of fighting with Zhao Hu, and then learned valuable experience from Qin Xiang's clever sword moves, and so on, which finally prompted him to take a small half step forward on this road.

At this time, the tricks used by Qi An had completely departed from the seventeen melee martial arts that he was originally familiar with, and combined with the characteristics of Qinxiang's swordsmanship, he formed a seemingly weird, but quite practical fighting technique, which was almost up to the level of skill possessed by the masters of the prefecture-level list.

The reason why the masters of the prefecture-level list are far stronger than the ordinary peak martial arts sects and can cross the border to fight is because their skill cultivation is very high, which is much higher than the ordinary peak martial arts sect, and even higher than most of the early stage cultivators of the condensation realm. The reason why Bu Feng and them were able to break through the Heaven-level Life and Death Alley with the realm of the peak Martial Sect was that even Qi An before the breakthrough could not do it, and Gongsun Riyue's skill cultivation was even more terrifying, and he broke through the Heaven-level Life and Death Alley with the realm of the Martial Sect, this is the real genius.

People often say the term "genius", mostly referring to those who have outstanding talent in a certain area and have achieved achievements that ordinary people can't achieve. As far as the cultivation realm is concerned, there are two kinds of geniuses, one is called a cultivation genius, as the name suggests, that is, the cultivation speed is very fast, much faster than ordinary people, and the time taken to reach the same cultivation realm is shorter;

If you want to know whether a person is a cultivation genius, it depends on whether his cultivation speed is fast or not, and to determine whether a person is a combat genius, it depends on whether his skill realm is high, and the higher the skill realm, the stronger the combat effectiveness can be exerted, far surpassing his peers, even against the seniors who are in the higher cultivation realm, they can also fight beyond the ranks.

Once Qi An made up for the shortcomings in his moves, he no longer had any weaknesses in his body, and slowly reversed the situation, and even gradually gained the upper hand with his terrifying defensive power, which made Qin Xiang more and more frightened, and even the idea of regaining the iron medal was extinguished.

And after a long time of running away and a series of tricks, Qin Xiang's true qi has been consumed too much, and he is in danger of being depleted. Although the Qi Condensation Realm cultivators can recover their true qi in battle, they are basically unable to make ends meet, although they are far more durable than the peak martial arts, but they can't help but consume them uninterruptedly, no matter how much Qin Xiang wants to regain the iron medal, he has no choice but to take Qi An at all, so he plans to withdraw his sword and retreat, and the matter of the iron medal can only be planned later.

Qin Xiang wants to go, but Qi An doesn't let him, since he has made a breakthrough in his body, Qi An's speed has been faster than Qin Xiang, and now he has made progress in his trick skills, plus the attack and defense are all above Qin Xiang, the initiative is completely in Qi An's hands, if he doesn't let Qin Xiang leave, Qin Xiang will have no way to get out at all, and can only accompany him to continue to move.

Qin Xiang saw that she couldn't get rid of Qi An, and shouted anxiously: "Hey, are you finished?

Qi An still held on tightly, and replied, "That's not true, I just want to fight with you." ”

To tell the truth, Qi An can't be regarded as a soft-hearted person, but in the face of such a delicate girl, he really can't be murderous, not to mention that although Qin Xiang is on the wanted list, he is not guilty of death, and he is not the kind of person who is extremely vicious and extremely evil, so Qi An just regards Qin Xiang as a whetstone.

Qin Xiang also vaguely felt that Qi An had no murderous intentions, but she couldn't figure out what the other party was going to do, seeing that the real qi was not good, the speed of the soft sword in her hand began to slow down, and the strength gradually declined, Qin Xiang's fierce silver teeth bitten, no longer resisted, and shouted angrily: "If you want to kill, kill it! I won't let you go if I am a ghost!"

Qi An never expected that the other party would suddenly give up resistance, he was turning his palm into a claw at this time, and took it to the opponent's left shoulder, although he immediately accepted it, but he was still a little slower, and ripped off Qin Xiang's entire sleeve with a tear, revealing a white jade arm like a lotus root, fortunately, Qi An had already unloaded his strength in time, although he tore the sleeve, he did not scratch Qin Xiang's arm, but only scratched a few red marks on his skin with his fingertips.

Qin Xiang looked at the finger marks on her arm and said angrily: "Come on, kill me, what kind of ability is it to bully a weak woman?"

From an objective point of view, Qin Xiang, who has the early stage cultivation of the Qi Condensation Realm, can definitely not be said to be a weak woman, but compared with Qi An, it is indeed slightly weaker, and it is barely true, so Qi An embarrassedly threw away a section of the sleeve in his hand, and said embarrassedly: "I won't really kill you, I just want to fight with you." ”

Qin Xiang wrinkled her nose and snorted, looked up at the sky, ignored him, and looked like she was going to kill him, which immediately made Qi An a little embarrassed, and he didn't know what to do, so he sighed for a long time and said, "Okay! If you don't want to fight, don't fight, you can go!"

With that, Qi An turned and left. But the iron card is on him, how could Qin Xiang let him go? He also followed behind Qi An from a distance, where Qi An went, she went, and the ultimate goal was to find a chance to regain the iron card.

Of course, Qi An knew that Qin Xiang was following behind, but he didn't care, he walked back and forth along the way he came, and his body was not very fast, and Qin Xiang was able to keep up.

But as he walked, Qi An found that he was lost.

At this time, it was late at night, there was still a period of time before dawn, it was dark all around, it was difficult to see the direction clearly, Qi An walked by mistake, and he didn't know what the hell he went, he couldn't even see the moonlight, but there was a gloomy and biting cold wind blowing, whirring, which made Qi An feel a little cold.

Qi An turned to the rear and shouted, "Miss Qinxiang, what is this place? Do you know the road?"

Qin Xiang was not far behind him, she had been following Qi An, her attention was all on Qi An, and she didn't pay attention to the specific direction, at this time she heard Qi An's shout, so she turned her head and looked around, and found that this place was quite unfamiliar, and she had never been there.

However, as soon as she began to pay attention to the environment, Kotoka immediately noticed that something was wrong, this place was surrounded by mountains, it was obviously a valley, and the wind was very loud, the temperature was extremely low, and one of her exposed arms began to frost.

These characteristics suddenly reminded Koyaka of a dangerous place, and her heart chuckled, and her face immediately became ugly.

At this time, I heard Qi An muttering in front of me: "The wind in this ghost place is so strong, it makes people's bodies cold." ”

Qin Xiang didn't care about anything else, hurriedly rushed over, threw Qi An to the ground, covered Qi An's mouth with her little hand with a bare face, and shouted in a low voice anxiously: "Shut up!

Qi An closed his mouth quite obediently, and only looked at Qin Xiang with puzzled eyes.

Qin Xiang immediately felt that the posture of the two was a little ambiguous, sat up with a blushing face, and explained in a low voice: "This is the Black Wind Valley, it is a very dangerous place, there are many ferocious Black Wind Wolves, your shouting voice will attract them, and we will be dead then!"

Qi An blinked: "Black Wind Wolf, is it powerful?"

Qin Xiang nodded fiercely: "The Black Wind Wolf is not an ordinary wolf, it is a wise beast demon, each of them has the strength of a cultivator who is not weaker than the early stage of the Qi Condensation Realm, and it is usually a large group, just the two of us can't resist it at all, and if we run into it, it will be a dead end!"
