Chapter 41: The Heart of the Strong
If you want to cultivate the sword style, you must lay the foundation and reach the subtle realm of the art realm, which is the threshold that every sword cultivator must cross.
Jiang Li knew very well in his heart that the sword style was easy to achieve, the sword realm was difficult to cultivate, and if he wanted to practice the sword, he must have great perseverance, and it was difficult to persist without enough desire in his heart.
In ancient times, Gai Nie, who was known as the Chinese Sword Saint, reached the peak of the sword path. It is said that he can destroy cities, move mountains, cut rivers, subdue demons, suppress demons, and overturn the sea with a single sword...... Endless legends have been left on the land of China.
Although it is an ancient legend, it does not lack a trace of credibility, because it is a post-civilization era, and there is a deep fault line between it and the ancient period.
"Now the dragon veins between heaven and earth are recovering, the aura is recovering, the famous rivers and mountains are returning to the ancients, and the yin qi may also be recovering! But all living beings are beginning to evolve, and many monsters are turning on their spiritual intelligence.
This is obvious to all modern people, and I wonder why the legend of the sword saint Gai Nie has no credibility? In such a mysterious period, it is better to believe that it exists than to believe that it does not exist. Jiang Li said secretly in his heart.
"Now that I have this mysterious pitch-black iron sword, and I have obtained the ancient martial arts secret book - "Five Songs of the Remnant Sun Sword Technique". Maybe this is the will of God, since it is the will of God, why don't I obey it!"
Everyone has an extraordinary dream in their hearts, and Jiang Li is no exception!
He came to his senses, and the sense of existential urgency forced him to become stronger.
Now it is obviously impossible for Jiang Li to go to the famous mountains and rivers to find strange flowers and exotic fruits to evolve.
A black wolf king under the Beiling Mountain almost killed Jiang Li, not to mention the creatures that were evolving in the deep mountains at this time.
And Jiang Li didn't believe that before the change of this heaven and earth, there were no creatures that had already opened up their minds in that unsearchable corner! Those were the most terrifying.
The spiritual wisdom has been opened before the mutation of this heaven and earth, so what kind of terrifying realm will it evolve into after the mutation of this heaven and earth. Whether it will rule over the Terrans in the future, or even destroy the Terrans, is unknown.
At the same time, Jiang Li knew very well that several creatures recorded in the yellowed notebook he picked up must have already been psychic.
What is their current state? Are they hibernating? or are they evolving?
Although he didn't know who the owner of this yellowed notebook was, Jiang Li definitely believed that its owner was definitely not a simple person.
Because the last few pages of the notebook also prophesied some shocking things.
One of the things is the revival of the dragon veins in this heaven and earth, which leads to the revival of the aura!
Now this matter has been thoroughly verified~~
"I must become stronger! My future destiny is in my own hands!" Jiang Li doesn't want to become a powerless lamb to be slaughtered in the future.
And Jiang Li still has a huge question in his heart - what kind of world is the world behind the Bronze Giant Gate, and why the leader who entered the Bronze Giant Gate that day is exactly the same as himself.
Jiang Li wanted to solve the mystery. But it's all built on getting stronger. If you are a weak person, then it is completely impossible to get in touch with things at that level, how can you solve the mystery!
Jiang Li retracted his thoughts, and he was now completely sure of his path.
The first step to becoming stronger - the only way to practice swords!
Only when you succeed in sword training can you go deep into the famous mountains to get more opportunities.
At the same time, Jiang Li also knows very well that sword training is not something that can be completed overnight, and it needs to start from the basics. I'm afraid that it will take a long time for me to enter the subtle realm from the basics.
Fortunately, Jiang Li has experienced the first transformation on Longmen Mountain, and his life physique, strength, speed, perception, and agility are several times that of ordinary people.
In this way, laying the foundation of kendo can also get twice the result with half the effort, at least it can save ordinary people a few years of time to practice swords.
After determining his own path, Jiang Li said he would do it.
Practicing swords requires basic skills, and although Jiang Li has enough strength now, his strength is not stable enough, and it is not the best time to practice swords.
Sword training must be steady.
From this day on, Jiang Li set a training method for himself, and he walked for an hour every hour until the strength in his body was stable enough.
And it was also on this day that the fat man also stayed at Jiang Li's house with a dead face. In order to appease his wounded heart, it is actually to eat and drink.
Jiang Li didn't care as much as the fat man, what he loves now, just do it. Jiang Li thought that the fat man had demolished his house, and he suddenly had a toothache......
Open your feet outward, the same width as your shoulders, squat slightly, start to move forward on your toes, shift your center of gravity downward, gradually squat deep, open your feet to reach your feet until the triangle is wide, your hands change from encircled to flat, and your palms move down. At that time, Jiang Li groped for the essence of Zamabu in the grove of Qingshan Town.
The things in the ordinary often contain the most true things, a flower and a world, a grass and a thousand autumns. Whether it is the grass, trees, stone insects, or the sky of the sky, the final trajectory of everything is back to basics.
This Zama step seems to be extremely ordinary, but it is the foundation of everything, only with a solid foundation, can you go further in the way of the sword, so high and far away will be nothing sooner or later.
Zamabu is the condensation and accumulation of the strength of the whole body of the sword practitioner, it is not possible to have empty power, and it is also necessary to control and use the power sufficiently, and how to use it now has to be slowly experienced by yourself.
Only by sending and receiving one's own strength as one's heart, exerting one's strength to the extreme, and making the movements of the arms and legs flexible, sending and receiving as one's heart, can the effect of sword practice be the best.
No matter what kind of sword style it is, it is inseparable from these twelve movements, and only by carving these twelve movements into the bones can kendo be regarded as initially reaching the foundation.
Basic offensive moves, point, slash, split, stab, sweep, tease.
Basic defensive actions, collapse, rack, interception, twist, dial, turn.
These twelve basic movements lead to three basic combinations. Integrating these three combinations into the bones is the foundation of kendo that is truly laid.
Primary combination 1: lunge straight stab, knee lift flat chop, lunge down split, turn back flat collapse, front point with sword, rest step down split.
Primary combination 2: knee lift and lower interception, knee lift lower point, parallel step straight stab, left amputation wrist stab, lunge up, leap up pick, rest step down split, servant step down press.
Primary combination three: right wrist amputation, knee straight stab, lunge flat split, progressive left split, back split, back split, back split, lunge flat wipe, hanging sword straight stab, lunge left tease, virtual step sword.
Jiang Li knew very well that he wanted to integrate these twelve actions into his bones.
There is only one word practice, and only by practicing these basic movements to thousands of times, so that these basic movements can be truly sent and received like the heart, not moving like a mountain, and moving like thunder, can the foundation of kendo be preliminarily laid.
And there is no shortcut, this is the only way, impetuous and ambitious will fail sooner or later.
The foundation is like the foundation of a house, and the more solid the foundation, the more likely it is to build a high-rise building.
At this time, Jiang Li's eyes faintly flashed with a resolute gaze.
