Chapter 21: Magnetic Meteorite
After Qi An came to the library pavilion, he didn't look at the cultivation exercises again, but went to several bookshelves marked with "martial arts classics".
Qi An understood a long time ago that if a warrior or a monk wanted to have strong combat power, he had to cultivate both inside and outside.
Nei refers to one's basic qualities, including strength, speed, dexterity, stamina, true qi strength, and so on, which can be improved through the practice of exercises.
In addition, it refers to a variety of fighting methods, including moves, responses, body methods, skills, etc., which requires the ability to strengthen this aspect by consulting martial arts classics and diligent practice of martial arts moves.
When Qi An was wandering the world, he liked to watch the martial artists do their tricks, steal from them, learn from others' methods, and integrate them to make up for his own shortcomings. So far, Qi An's martial arts moves are quite complex and changeable, but this has also caused a flaw, that is, there are no particularly powerful killing moves, and there are no weapons that are particularly good at, and he knows a little bit about everything, but he is not proficient in everything.
As a martial idiot, Qi An will definitely not let go of any martial arts classics in the library pavilion, even if he doesn't cultivate, he must read it again, draw nutrients from it, and evolve his own tricks.
In the past, Qi An also had a lore sword finger that was born from the Seven Absolute Sword Techniques, and he also shattered Li Liuxian's heart with this move, but after this move was used, the original little true qi in the dantian was completely emptied, and it could not be recovered, and he needed to re-cultivate, but now that Qi An has turned to the first system of refining the body, he has lost this means.
According to Qi An's habit, he still sorted out and summarized first, and the number of martial arts classics was obviously much more than that of practicing exercises, and it took Qi An three days to go through all the martial arts classics roughly.
There are a total of 425 kinds of martial arts classics in the entire library pavilion, which are roughly divided into four categories. The first category is the use of melee weapons, such as knives, swords, marks, sticks, axes, hammers, etc., which also include some soft weapons; the third category is long-range weapons, such as throwing hidden weapons such as throwing knives, and the most commonly used bows; the fourth category is body and footwork, which are slightly different, the body is more focused on speed, and footwork is more focused on dexterity.
These martial arts classics are deep and shallow, and with Qi An's experience, they cannot be determined for the time being, and it is very difficult to choose. However, Qi An doesn't know much about long-range weapons, and he doesn't have a special preference for melee weapons, and if it weren't for the sake of enhancing lethality, he would rather use punches and kicks. Therefore, Qi An immediately decided to abandon the second and third types of classics that explain the use of weapons, and focus on those martial arts moves that use fingers, palms, fists, claws, and legs to fight. After all, Qi An planned to master the cultivation of body exercises, which were extremely suitable for using a strong body as a weapon, but did not rely much on external objects.
As for the body and footwork, it must not be less, but it can't be greedy, just practice one.
Qi An took a fancy to two sets, one is called "Treading the Moon and Chasing the Stars", and the other is called "Upside Down Lost Steps", pondering and comparing, and finally chose "Treading the Moon and Chasing the Stars", which attaches more importance to speed.
After choosing the exercises and martial arts classics, Qi An began to plan a detailed practice plan, and the first focus must be on the "King Kong is not bad" exercises, after all, the exercises are the foundation of cultivation, and they are also related to the key to whether he can successfully transform.
When Qi An memorized the entire "King Kong is Not Bad" from beginning to end, and made sure that he did not miss a word, he returned to his residence to concentrate on meditation.
"King Kong is not bad" is the same as the other two body refining exercises, they must reach the realm of the innate martial arts before they can start cultivating, and Qi An's previous practice of the Seven Absolute Sword Techniques to build the foundation of the heart is very different, King Kong is not bad after the introduction of qi into the body, there is no step of qi sinking into the dantian, but the vitality in the meridians is constantly circulated, and finally dispersed into the five internal organs and limbs, until it is completely absorbed by the body, in this process, the physique will continue to be comprehensively strengthened, accumulated over time, and eventually produce qualitative changes.
This process is like using oneself as an iron embryo, constantly refining and sublimating until the whole body is forged like stainless steel, and then it can be practiced into the first weight of "King Kong is not bad": the iron body.
After practicing like this for a few days, suddenly the three senior brothers who lived in the same small courtyard came to visit together, and when Qi An heard the intention, he realized that it was Ji Zhengyue who proposed to try the three training treasures of the Magnetic Meteorite Platform, the Chaotic Arrow Field and the Alley of Life and Death, after all, these three places have a limit on the number of times they can be used, and it is almost the end of the month, if you don't go, I'm afraid you will waste the opportunity to give it away for nothing.
So the four of them chatted while marching in the direction of the magnetic platform.
The magnetic meteorite platform is located in the east of the backing mountain branch, it is a flat circular platform, covering an area of less than half an acre, the whole body is made of pure black hard meteorite, surrounded by a fence across half a zhang to enclose it, only leaving an entrance and exit on the west side, a school administrator in a black robe is sitting on the wooden chair next to the entrance, looking at Qi An and his party with a smile.
When the four of them got closer, the steward saw that they were all fresh faces, so he stood up, hugged his fists and said, "Four, but you want to use the magnetic meteorite?"
The four of them saluted at the same time, and Ji Zhengyue replied, "Exactly." ”
The steward took out a book, dipped it in ink with a brush, and asked, "Please also show your identity card so that you can make a record below." ”
The four of them showed their identity cards in turn, and after the steward wrote them down one by one, he pointed to the entrance behind him and said: "You can enter from here, each person can stay for a maximum of ten hours, and if it is less than an hour, it will be calculated as one hour, if it is overtime, you will need to pay a fee, and the remaining time can be reserved for the next time." ”
Subsequently, the steward reminded everyone a few words, which probably meant that the more the magnetic meteorite platform went to the center, the greater the oppressive force would be, and we must do what we can, step by step, otherwise we are likely to be injured.
As early as outside the fence, Qi An noticed that there were already five people on the stage, all sitting cross-legged with their eyes closed, and they were almost all at the very edge of the platform, sitting at the innermost one, only a little deeper, only one step away from the edge.
Ji Zhengyue's personality is the most jumpy, when the first one jumped onto the stage, his toes touched the ground, his complexion changed instantly, and he was unsteady on his feet, and he actually knelt on the ground, looking very embarrassed.
The five people who were cultivating cross-legged on the stage opened their eyes and looked over when they heard the sound, and saw Ji Zhengyue's embarrassed appearance almost lying on the ground on all fours, and some people couldn't help laughing, which made Ji Zhengyue extremely embarrassed, and his face was as swollen as a sweet potato.
Xiang Fang hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"
He didn't believe that the dignified Innate Martial Sect actually fell into a dog eating with one jump, there must be something wrong, so he couldn't help but ask out loud.
Ji Zhengyue came back to her senses and immediately replied: "Be careful! There is a lot of pressure on this stage, I almost can't stand up straight, you must pay attention!"
As soon as the words fell, Qu Han also came to the stage, but he didn't make a leap like Ji Zhengyue, but just raised his legs and stepped on the stage steadily. An extremely obvious downward pressure fell on him in an instant, as if a boulder weighing hundreds of catties was suddenly pressed on the top of his head, and he couldn't breathe. Fortunately, the Innate Martial Sect can breathe with the acupuncture points all over the body, and there is absolutely no breathlessness, but the feeling in the heart is very similar, so it is just a metaphor.
Although Qu Han's face was expressionless, his face was even paler than usual and had betrayed him, obviously the situation was not too easy, but it was much better than Ji Zhengyue's embarrassed appearance, at least he could sit down with his knees crossed.
Xiang Fang was the third to set foot on the magnetic platform, and among the four, he was the oldest, and it was likely that he also had the deepest cultivation. I saw that after he stood firmly, he paused slightly, slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, took another half step forward, bent down and stretched out his hand to pull up Ji Zhengyue, who was lying on the ground, and then sat down cross-legged on the spot, and the look on his face was obviously not very relaxed.
In fact, for the various data of the magnetic meteorite platform, the Qianqing University has long planned that the unified magnetic meteorite platform is perfectly circular and has a diameter of ten zhang. According to the system of weights and measures of the Great Qian, five feet is a step, two steps are one zhang, and from the edge to the center is exactly ten steps away from an adult man.
It should be noted here that one foot lift is one kick, and two foot lifts are one step, that is, two footprints one before and one behind, so one step is the sum of the distance obtained by each of the left and right legs stepping forward once.
At the edge of the magnetic meteorite, the oppressive force is only about five hundred catties, and every time you take half a step, the oppressive force will increase by five hundred catties, and in the very center, the oppressive force will reach a terrifying ten thousand catties of huge force, which is not at all something that the Innate Martial Sect can bear.
Ji Zhengyue didn't know the depth, and flew up directly from the side of the stage, and the position where she landed was already slightly deeper, about 2,000 catties in the pressure range, and she couldn't get up directly on the ground, so she was so embarrassed, and it was already good luck if she wasn't injured. And Xiang Fang took half a step forward, to the pressure position of 1,000 catties, and bent his waist forward, just enough to reach out and pull Ji Zhengyue up, but at this time, he was almost at his limit, and he had no strength to advance.
Ji Zhengyue was pulled by Xiang Fang, and even crawled back to the edge, sitting cross-legged beside Qu Han with palpitations, and was about to say something, but Qu Han didn't look at him, stood up by himself, stretched out his feet and poked forward half a step, but his face changed, and he took back the soles of his feet that had been poked out, and still sat down in place.
The three of them sat on the stage separately, separated by a little distance from each other, Ji Zhengyue and Qu Han could only be on the edge, about 500 catties of pressure position, Xiang Fang was much stronger, and he could withstand the pressure of 1,000 catties, and among the five people who had been on the stage before, one was even more powerful than Xiang Fang, he was under the pressure of 1,500 catties.
