Chapter 4 Exercises and Swordsmanship
(I took care of the children, I am sorry for the delay)
"There are still eighteen days to go, and it is time to go to the Sword Martial Tower. ”
Carrying a salute sword and wearing an off-white sword robe, Chen Zongtang went to the Sword Martial Tower.
In fact, the Sword Martial Arts Building, like the Qiyao Martial Academy, was created in imitation of the Four Great Universities.
The Sword Martial Arts Building of the True Sword Academy Palace has five floors, and from the outside, it looks like a thick sword standing on the ground, standing still in the wind and rain.
Under the vicissitudes of time, it exudes a kind of sharp edge that belongs to the sword, permeating the surroundings, and when you walk here, you can't help but be solemn and put away all the playful mentality.
Taking a deep breath, Chen Zong retracted his gaze, took another step, and stepped into the Sword Martial Tower.
The manager of the Sword Martial Mansion is also an official disciple of the True Sword Academy, just like He Tielin.
"This senior brother, my name is Chen Zong, and I am a new official disciple, and I have come here to select exercises and swordsmanship. Chen Zong said to the senior brother who managed the Sword Martial Tower.
"On the third floor, tell me your name when you've chosen. This senior brother was reading a book, and when he heard Chen Zong's words, he said without raising his head, and his tone was cold, which was in stark contrast to He Tielin's enthusiasm.
Chen Zong didn't have any special feelings, there were thousands of kinds of people, all kinds of people.
The first floor of the Jianwu Building is very large, there are more than 20 large bookshelves, each bookshelf is full of books, and it is estimated that there are thousands of books at a glance, all of which are miscellaneous books.
The second layer is human-level exercises and martial arts, and there are many of them, roughly estimated to be more than a thousand.
The third layer is the prefecture-level lower-grade exercises and the prefecture-level lower-grade martial arts.
As for the fourth layer, it is the middle grade of the prefecture, and the fifth layer is the upper grade of the prefecture.
There are often very few top-grade martial arts, and Chen Zong estimates that there are also true sword schools in the palace, but like the Qiyao Martial Academy, only certain conditions are qualified to cultivate, or in other words, the model of the Qiyao Martial Academy is to imitate the Four Great Palaces.
It doesn't matter so much, Chen Zong can only choose a prefecture-level lower-grade martial arts and a prefecture-level lower-grade martial arts for free, if you want to choose a more advanced martial arts, you must exchange it with Sword Xun.
It was not easy to obtain the Sword Honor, and Chen Zong didn't even have it at all now.
Stepping into the third floor, there were only a few people.
The formal disciples of the last session, each of them have practiced martial arts, and the martial arts of the third layer are no longer attractive to them, and the target is the fourth or even the fifth layer, and the new formal disciples have basically been selected in the previous ten days.
Chen Zong walked to the classification of exercises first and swept roughly, and there were sixty-seven exercises at the prefecture level.
Name and bio.
Soft cloud strength: There are two levels, and the internal strength practiced by this exercise is gentle and ethereal, silent.
Flowing water strength: There are two levels, and the internal strength practiced by this exercise is like flowing water endlessly.
......
Zhengyuan Jin: There are two levels, and the internal strength practiced by this exercise method is strong and vigorous, which is better than other prefecture-level lower-grade exercises to practice fifty percent of the internal strength.
Jing Yuan Jin: There are two levels, and the internal strength practiced by this exercise method is very pure, and it is better than the internal strength practiced by other prefecture-level lower grade exercises.
Chen Zong looked at it very carefully.
The effect of the internal strength cultivated by different exercises is different, and this is even more obvious than the human-level exercises of the Qi and Blood Realm.
In the human-level exercises at the level of the Qi and Blood Realm, the power of qi and blood that is cultivated, although there is a difference, is actually not so obvious, such as the Chen family's Fierce Tiger Gong, which pays attention to qi and blood like a tiger, is more of an internal, and the external embodiment is not obvious, such as Chen Zong's cultivation of the True Sword Heavenly Skill, excluding the increase in the power of swordsmanship, the qi and blood that he pays attention to are like a sword, and he only makes himself a little more sharp.
However, the ground-level exercises are different, and the internal strength cultivated is really different.
In many cases, what kind of internal strength exercises are practiced will determine what kind of martial arts a martial artist cultivates.
For example, there is a martial artist who has cultivated Rouyun Jin, which is biased towards gentleness, and the internal strength he cultivates is also called Rouyun Internal Strength, which is not suitable for those fierce martial arts, otherwise not only will he not be able to fully exert his power, but he will drag his feet and damage himself if he doesn't do well.
In the same way, a martial artist who cultivates strong internal strength is not suitable for cultivating those small martial arts.
After reading all the names and introductions of more than sixty exercises, Chen Zong did not choose in a hurry, sharpened the knife and did not cut wood, and first looked at the martial arts before making plans.
At the level of the practice strength realm, human-level martial arts can no longer give full play to their own strength, after all, human-level martial arts are promoted by the power of qi and blood, but the practice of strength realm is majoring in internal strength, which are two different powers, and there is no doubt that internal strength will be much stronger, this point, Chen Zong, who has just refined a wisp of primitive internal strength, has a deep understanding.
You must know that that wisp of primordial internal strength, but the essence of the combination of the power of a body and the power of pure yang qi and blood, can it not be strong.
The number of prefecture-level martial arts is more than the exercises, among which the swordsmanship is the mainstay, there are hundreds of them, and there are also a few fist techniques, palm methods, leg methods, fingering methods, in addition to body methods and footwork.
"What martial arts should I choose?" staring at the many martial arts, Chen Zong thought.
Now, the Skylight Cloud Shadow Sword and the Lightning Thunder Killing Sword still have a very strong lethality, and it is not a problem to deal with the Lian Jin Realm, after all, the strength of his physique is strong, and the pure yang qi and blood are amazing, and the Shining Thunder Killing Sword that is used to explode is also amazingly powerful, but it is estimated that it is very difficult to deal with the second turn of the Lian Jin Realm.
After some things, and also came from the edge of life and death, Chen Zong understood the cruelty of the path of martial artists, his enemies were not only martial artists of the same level, those who cultivated to be higher than himself and stronger than himself could also become his enemies.
Not to mention anything else, a single black demon gate is like a dark cloud pressing down.
It's not right to stand still, you have to look forward.
"Let's choose a swordsmanship first. Soon, Chen Zong made a decision, blindly dodging and passively being beaten, it was not his preference, and offense was the first choice.
There are hundreds of swordsmanship.
Xuanguang swordsmanship: There are seven moves, the sword comes out with Xuanguang, which can interfere with the line of sight, the first move and the fifth move are basic sword moves, and after all the exercises are completed, you can practice the next two moves.
Angry Wind Sword Technique: There are a total of eight strokes, the sword is like an angry wind roaring, heavy momentum, the first move to the sixth move is the basic sword move, after all the practice, you can practice the last two moves.
......
Judging from the introduction, there is a clear difference between the ground-level swordsmanship and the human-level swordsmanship.
Chen Zong read all the hundreds of prefecture-level low-grade swordsmanship, these swordsmanship, each with its own characteristics, some pay attention to the interference of light and shadow on the line of sight, some pay attention to the momentum of deterrence, some pay attention to soft and continuous, some pay attention to silent, some pay attention to tricky and ruthless, some pay attention to the force to suppress people, some pay attention to the supremacy of skill and so on.
"Any swordsmanship is suitable for me to practice. Chen Zong secretly said that his foundation in swordsmanship is very solid, which is closely related to the perennial cultivation of the basic eighteen styles and the four keys of hard practice of swordsmanship, but there must be a choice.
"The three-in-one martial arts realm of the heart, eye and hand can make my sword faster, and my own sword speed is also faster than that of a martial artist of the same level. ”
"The best sword technique for me is either a sword technique that focuses on strength, combined with superior sword speed, to achieve equal emphasis on power and speed, so that the power can be maximized. ”
"Either that, it's a swordsmanship that focuses on lethality, and under the speed of the sword, it hits the target faster and causes damage. ”
Power and lethality seem to be the same thing, but if you distinguish them carefully, they are two different things.
"Either it's a sword technique that focuses on speed, and the sword speed is further increased to the extreme. ”
This is the best option for you right now.
Martial artists, it is best to master a few more martial arts, that means more means, more flexible battles, and less easy to be restrained, but time and energy are limited, and in the current situation, Chen Zong can only choose one.
"Sharp swordplay, this is a sword technique that focuses on lethality. ”
"Sanyue swordsmanship, this is a swordsmanship that focuses on strength. ”
"Wind interception sword, this is a sword technique that focuses on speed. ”
"How to choose?"
"Take advantage of it to the extreme, it's you, Wind Interception Swordsmanship. ”
Making a decision, Chen Zong turned around and walked towards the exercise bookshelf, now he had to choose the exercise.
The choice of swordsmanship is good, and the choice of exercises is also roughly numerous, and finally Chen Zong chose Zhengyuan Jin, his original internal strength is based on a strong physique and pure yang qi and blood, which is essentially much purer than the internal strength of ordinary martial artists, and the cultivation of Jingyuan Jin can purify internal strength, but there is a limit.
Of course, this is Chen Zong's own speculation, and it is estimated that it is not far from ten.
In a short period of time, there is only one chance to choose the exercises, and if you guess correctly, Jing Yuanjin will not be of any help.
When he returned to the second layer, Chen Zong casually walked around and took a look, and he actually saw the third layer of the Lone Star Sword Technique, called the Lone Star Heavenly Evil, which looked like the introduction and was the ultimate in human-level swordsmanship.
It's just that it's no longer suitable for itself.
"Zhengyuan Jin and Wind Interception Sword Technique, you wait first. The senior brother who managed the Sword Martial Building put down the book, said lightly, got up and walked inside.
In less than a minute, the other party had two more hand-copied books in his hand, one was gray and white, and the cover was written with three vigorous and powerful characters - Zhengyuan Jin, which gave Chen Zong a sense of majesty, and one was light cyan, with the wind interception sword technique written on it, and the strokes were narrow and long, very smooth, implying a sharp edge.
"The manuscript must not be transmitted or damaged, and must be returned in its entirety within one month, otherwise it will be punished according to the severity of the circumstances, and the punishment will be expelled from the school palace in the worst case. The indifferent tone spoke fluently, and it is estimated that he has said it many times.
Chen Zong nodded and put away the two books, turned around and left, his steps were fast, and he couldn't wait to go back to practice and strive to master as much as possible before the arrival of the New Star Competition.
The first thing to cultivate is the positive yuan strength, and only by refining more internal strength can we better cultivate the wind interception sword technique, otherwise it will be an empty shelf and will not be able to exert its due power.
The subtlety of the earth-level exercises is different from the human-level exercises, but it does not prevent Chen Zong from attaining enlightenment, and after half a day, Chen Zong basically initially mastered the mystery of Zhengyuan Jin, and the rest was slowly comprehended and mastered in the cultivation.
On the second floor of the small building, Chen Zong did it cross-legged, his hands interlocked and rested on his lower abdomen, holding his chest and back, imagining that his body was like a tree like a mountain, his spiritual will was highly concentrated, and he eliminated all distracting thoughts.
