For a martial artist, aside from the fact that he doesn't know anything about martial arts when he gets started, the first stage that needs to be experienced is the hegemonic level.

The so-called hegemony, to be specific, is actually to constantly temper the flesh * body and improve the skills of the human body.

For example, muscle strength, reaction speed, bone strength, ability to resist blows, and so on......

Normally, a martial artist will choose an internal breath method to cultivate, when you can successfully mobilize the internal breath in the dantian through this internal breath method, and then use the internal breath to strengthen the flesh * body, it means that you have officially entered the door of martial arts, and you can be regarded as a beginner-level hegemon-level martial artist.

The previous Chu Nan was at this stage.

And if you want to continue to improve at the level of the primary hegemonic body, you can only continue to insist on cultivating the inner breath mental method, and continue to use the internal breath to continue to strengthen and refine the flesh * body.

When the physical body is tempered to a certain extent, the internal breath is also strong to a certain extent, and it can reach the level where the internal breath can run the whole body at will, and can be released with the heart, which means that it has officially entered the internal breath level from the hegemonic level.

Although Chu Nan is now able to rely on his powerful data ability to calculate all the changes in his moves in advance, run the Nine Turns of the Heart Method in advance to mobilize the internal breath, and then make the internal breath just match the Hong's long fist, and attach the internal breath to the fist in battle, but strictly speaking, he is still not a real internal breath-level martial artist.

The reason is very simple, he still can't run the internal breath to any part of his body at will, he can only mobilize it according to the internal breath trajectory of the Nine Turns of Heart Method cultivation, and cooperate with the Hong's long fist to increase his power.

And if he is a real internal breath-level martial artist, he doesn't need to be so troublesome at all, as long as he wants to mobilize internal breath in battle, he can use it at any time.

The fundamental reason for this difference is still the huge gap in the degree of flesh refining between him as a hegemon-level martial artist and an internal body level martial artist.

The question that Chu Nan is considering now is where is the gap between the so-called "flesh * body refining" and what is the specific embodiment?

If we talk about muscle strength, then Chu Nan is undoubtedly very far from the internal breath-level martial artist who has passed the hegemonic body stage and has preliminarily completed the physical body foundation tempering, and even there is a significant gap between him and a fifth-order hegemon-level martial artist like Luo Li.

For example, Luo Li can easily reach three or four hundred kilograms with a punch at will, while Chu Nan must use his powerful data ability to mobilize every muscle in his body and cooperate perfectly before his simple punch power can exceed four hundred kilograms.

But this is obviously not enough to cause the most critical gap between Chu Nan and the internal breath-level martial artists, and the key lies in the gap between the two sides in the use of internal breath.

In the battle with Sahana in the afternoon, if Chu Nan could contain internal breath in every punch, then even if Saha had a special and highly defensive internal breath technique like Black Rock Turtle Breath, it would be impossible to eat Chu Nan so many punches without damage.

But Chu Nan obviously couldn't do this.

First of all, his internal breath is far from enough to support him in every punch.

Although he had broken through to the third level of the Nine Turns Heart Method, and his internal breath had been greatly enhanced, Chu Nan's current internal breath strength was at best the level of a low-level hegemon-level martial artist.

With the special nature of the Nine Turns of Mind Method, he could mobilize a powerful internal breath that was even enough to compete with the powerhouses of the low-level internal breath level.

But it's okay to do this once, it's okay to do it twice, and even according to his experiments, it's okay to do it more than ten times, but if in the afternoon battle with Saha, all the hundreds of punches are attached to the internal breath, it is simply impossible.

Therefore, in the afternoon battle, except for the first two punches and the use of internal breath at the next few critical moments, Chu Nan simply relied on his physical strength to compete with Saha the rest of the time.

Secondly, Chu Nan couldn't successfully mobilize his internal breath in every punch.

The reason why he was able to successfully mobilize the internal breath assistance when he was practicing Hong's Changquan was because Hong's Changquan was indeed a very good boxing technique, and each punch could successfully mobilize the muscles and meridians of the whole body, so that he could use the Nine Turns of Heart Method to integrate into the internal breath.

However, if he can't use Hong's long fist, it will be difficult for the Nine Turns of the Heart Method to cooperate properly, and the internal breath cannot be integrated, so naturally he will not be able to mobilize the internal breath.

He hadn't paid much attention to this when he was practicing before, but today's fight with Saha made him pay attention to this problem.

The pressure brought by the Inner Breath level martial artist is too huge, even if he has a strong data ability to support it, it is impossible to guarantee that he can be in a state where he can perfectly play the Hong Clan's Long Fist every time, and there is no guarantee that every punch contains internal breath, so the threat to the internal breath level martial artist is bound to be much smaller.

If Chu Nan didn't know much about this issue before, then after learning from that unknown senior and being pointed out by him the difference between the internal breath cultivation method and the internal breath operation exercise, he now has a certain understanding.

In the final analysis, he lacked an internal breath operation technique that could be coordinated with the Nine Turns of the Heart Method, and his own internal breath was not strong enough, so of course it was impossible to casually mobilize the internal breath in battle.

If he can do it, he will be an internal breath-level martial artist.

"But what about that kick in the afternoon?"

Chu Nan's mind flashed to the last end of the battle with Sahana in the afternoon.

That last moment was a trap he had carefully devoted, and he had just tried to hit Saha with a kick, perhaps to find Saha's biggest weakness in the Black Rock.

But he didn't expect a kick out, and the internal breath that had just been transferred to the horse punch that hit Sahadantian's vital point just flowed into his left leg along the trajectory of the Nine Turns of the Heart Method, and flowed into the toes, resulting in an internal breath that brought out the internal breath, and the force of the kick was as high as 793.712866 kilograms, directly kicking Saha.

This made Chu Nan have doubts in his heart.

What kind of thing is the internal breath operation exercise that the unknown senior said?

If the internal breath operation exercise is the exercise of mobilizing the internal breath, then he cooperates with Hong's long fist to operate the Nine Turns of the Heart Method, can't it be regarded as an internal breath operation exercise?

The most important thing is that the last kick has nothing to do with Hong's long fist, but he can follow the situation at the time, and run the internal breath to the foot and bring out the internal breath.

Such...... It should be a way to control the operation of internal information, right?

And in the final analysis, when you practice the Nine Transformations of the Mind Method, isn't it just controlling the process of internal breath running in the body?

"So it's not unusual to say that the so-called internal breath operation exercise is just to change the trajectory of the internal breath operation? In that case, why can't I create my own? ”

Chu Nan glanced at the probe that was busy on his body, and then at the complex pile of instruments in the logistics rehabilitation center around him, no longer hesitated, and jumped up directly.

"Warning, student Chu Nan, your muscle activity stimulation is only 78% complete, please lie down and continue to receive treatment."

"No need." Chu Nan waved his hand. "Light brain, I ask you to check my physical condition at any time, and if I am in danger, treat me immediately."

"Okay." The female voice representing the main control of the light brain paused, and actually responded.

Chu Nan smiled slightly, and once again confirmed that the main control light brain of this data rehabilitation center really has extraordinary intelligence, far from being comparable to the old computer produced by the Earth Federation and other light brains.

After carefully recalling the situation when he raised that kick in the afternoon, Chu Nan first sat on a horse and punched out, and his internal breath flowed.

Sensing that the internal breath was withdrawn from the fist, turned back, and turned to his left leg, Chu Nan immediately kicked out.

"Poof—"

A mouthful of blood spurted out, Chu Nan's body went limp, and he fell crooked on the diagnosis and treatment bed next to him.

The two mechanical arms poked out of nowhere, lifted Chu Nan to the bed and lay down, and then several probes had been attached to Chu Nan's skin, and a needle was quietly inserted into the blood vessels and meridians of Chu Nan's upper arm at the same time.

It didn't take long for Chu Nan's face to fully recover.

He jumped off the bed again and kicked it out again.
