At this time, in addition to the core cultivation techniques of "Xiao Zhou Tianjue", the number of martial arts he mastered had far exceeded that of ordinary martial artists, just various types of sword techniques and swordsmanship, each of which had reached double digits, and other martial arts such as stick techniques, marksmanship techniques, fist techniques, palm techniques, body techniques, and leg techniques, each of which had at least seven or eight of the same, and this was not counting those same martial arts of the same name that had been fused, otherwise the number would have to be at least several times more.

After stacking so many martial arts of the same type, Jiang Yan found that when he was sticking and installing new similar software, as long as the level of the target software was not too much beyond the software level he had mastered so far, then the spirit value and time spent on sticking and installing it were getting less and less.

And his understanding of these martial arts seems to be getting deeper and deeper, and there are faint signs of being able to exert themselves when they are used.

"Perhaps, if I continue to expand the software library of martial arts, I will be able to advance the realm of these martial arts to the realm of transcending the 'peak' and reaching the realm of 'consummation' that countless martial arts practitioners dream of?"

Jiang Yan came up with this conjecture in his heart.

Most of the internal strength and mental methods themselves have graded layers corresponding to the realm of cultivation, and the martial arts moves also have their own realm divisions, representing the degree of mastery and comprehension of this martial art by the martial artist.

Entry, small success, big success, and pinnacle, these are the four common realm divisions of martial arts themselves.

The entry-level means that the martial artist has learned this set of martial arts correctly, memorized and can perform it completely, and Xiaocheng means that he has been able to skillfully apply this set of martial arts to actual combat, and will not be constrained by the rigid moves on the martial arts record.

When they reach the realm of Dacheng, for this set of martial arts, the practitioner has been able to exert close to complete power, and can send and receive freely, every move and style can come easily, and the artistic conception contained in the martial arts also has their own understanding;

Further up, it is the 'consummation' realm that martial arts practitioners dream of, and those who can cultivate martial arts to this realm mean that he has surpassed the original founder of the martial art, and has truly turned the martial art into his own, and when he performs it, it is as easy and natural as instinct, and he can have the full force of those martial artists who use the peak realm martial arts of the same level with one move.

At this time, even if the original grade of this martial art that has been cultivated to the realm of perfection is very low, when it is unleashed, it can compete with those higher-grade martial arts and exert the power beyond the grade.

But the consummation of martial arts is not something that can be easily achieved.

Entry, Xiaocheng and Dacheng, these three stages, as long as you successfully step into the threshold, and then continue to work hard and practice diligently, basically any martial artist can achieve it.

However, the pinnacle realm requires a certain degree of martial arts comprehension in order to successfully comprehend the martial arts mysteries contained in martial arts, which has certain qualification requirements for the martial artists themselves.

And the higher state of perfection, it really has to be a brilliant genius to achieve it. This requires not only understanding, but also a certain amount of chance.

And like the exercises, martial arts also have adaptability for different people.

Needless to say, those exclusive martial arts that must be combined with specific exercises to exert their full power need not be mentioned, even if they are general-purpose martial arts, they also need to be related to the practitioner.

For example, a person with a fiery and courageous personality is suitable for cultivating the kind of martial arts with a wide open and closed style and an indomitable attitude, but if he is allowed to cultivate a martial art with a strange and erratic style, it will be half the effort, the progress will be slow, and the final achievement will be limited.

But Jiang Yan didn't need to care about the suitability of any martial arts, anyway, he just needed to copy the achievements of others, and he didn't need to spend energy to practice those martial arts.

Jiang Yan's current situation, he has copied a lot of martial arts through his abilities, and he has also copied the results of the original master's cultivation on the martial arts, which is equivalent to borrowing the power of countless martial artists to build the cornerstone of his martial arts path, and every brick and stone in the road is cast by absorbing the painstaking efforts of countless martial artists.

With the accumulation of time and the increase of masonry, this road will only become more and more stable and wide, and gradually form a road to heaven belonging to Jiang Yan.

......

By the time Jiang Yan followed the trails all the way and found the Cangxing Cluster camp stationed somewhere in the middle of the Black Wood Forest, the sun had already coincided with the western skyline.

The six members of the Cangxing Mercenary Regiment found a camping location not far from the water, they put their luggage on the shore and a bonfire had been lit, and the head of the group, Qi Yi, was leading the four brothers to deal with the strange beast black wolf together, doing the work of peeling off the fur, disemboweling and cleaning the internal organs.

In addition to the flesh and blood that can be used for martial arts cultivation, the fur and minions of the black wolf beasts are all materials that can be sold for money, and if they are brought back to the town, there will always be merchants willing to pay for them.

But it's a pity that Jiang Yan can't look down on these things, or rather, their value is not enough for Jiang Yan to sacrifice his burden to carry them deliberately.

He had hunted alone in the Black Wood Forest so many times, and this was not the first time he had encountered such a situation, but unfortunately he had no good way to solve this problem, after all, his experience on this trip was still mainly to improve his cultivation, and he couldn't waste his time on transporting these additional materials that could only be sold for money.

Whenever this happens, Jiang Yan can't help but look forward to having a common must-have artifact for the protagonist in the novel - space storage props!

It's a pity that although that kind of thing has been mentioned in the miscellaneous legends he has read, it is impossible to have it with Jiang Yan's current conditions, and even he is not sure if the entire Luo family has this kind of storage props, even if there is, it must be in the hands of the Luo family elders and family heads at the level of big people.

It's a pity that what he crossed was not the cultivation world and the immortal world where monks were running all over the ground and immortal laws were flying all over the sky, otherwise this kind of trouble should be much less.

Now that there is no such condition, Jiang Yan has to give up these small profits.

In the Cangxing Mercenary Group, the third child with an injured arm did not participate in Qi Yi's busyness, but sat quietly on the shore, and at the same time watched the four roads to be on guard. Although this is no longer the depths of the Black Wood Forest, it is difficult to guarantee that there will not be any eye-opening beasts and low-grade beasts running over to disturb it.

Therefore, the third child was the first to discover Jiang Yan's arrival.

"Ha, Jiang Yan, welcome back. The third child raised his intact right hand and greeted him with a smile: "It's getting dark, and the head of the regiment was worried about whether you would get lost in the woods." ”

The ground had been moved seven or eight and a half meters high clean bluestone in advance, and Jiang Yan sat down next to the third child at will.

"Didn't you make a campfire, and you can easily find it by following the traces of your departure and the direction of the cooking smoke. ”

Jiang Yan pointed to the burning firewood beside him, and then looked at his left arm wrapped in gauze that was sandwiched by the wooden board: "Speaking of which, doesn't your injury matter?"

"It's fine. He gestured to raise his left shoulder, and a nonchalant smile appeared on his face: "I've done temporary treatment, just find a special doctor when I return to the city." Anyway, I use a one-handed sword, so this little injury doesn't have much effect on my movements. ”

Qi Yi and the others dealt with the flesh and blood of the black wolf at this time, and after returning to the shore to greet Jiang Yan one after another, everyone was busy setting up the pot and chatting while cooking the wolf meat.

During the chat, Jiang Yan also learned the names of the other members of the Cangxing Mercenary Group in turn. The eldest Qi Yi, who cultivated to the sixfold limit of the day after tomorrow, was the oldest among them, although he looked like he was in his twenties, he was actually only two years older than Jiang Yan, and the course of action in the group was basically decided by him.

The second brother Cheng He, who has a silent and calm personality, has practiced external skills and alchemy, and is good at steady and steady defensive play; the third Xu Fei, who has a jumping personality and is good at light skills, is good at using fast swords; the fourth Gan Yuan, who is good at using a machete, is brave and fearless in battle; the fifth Huang Jia and the sixth Huang Ji, the two are brothers, one is good at shield sword and the other is good at archery, during the mission in the regiment, they are usually responsible for logistics preparations, by the way, the craftsmanship of the two brothers is also the best among the six, and the main force of this wolf meat is the two of them.
