Volume 1 The Way of Catechumen Chapter 12 The Integration of Law and Martial Arts, the Way of Killing

"That's not right!" The heroic voice echoed in the martial arts training ground, shaking the weeping willows by the lake in the distance.

The burly man with red hair was like fire and shouted at Wu Xie who was smashed by an axe with a huge voice that was very suitable for that figure: "Don't use up your mana!" It must be contained in the weapon and the body! Remember! Contains! ”

Wu Xie responded, turned over and stood up, and the mana that had been scattered was running again, condensed, and rushed forward.

After a few moves, he was sent flying again.

This time he was extremely heavy, and he only felt that the bones in his body seemed to be falling apart, and he couldn't get up from the ground for half a day.

But the eldest grandson, Uncle Ancestor, nodded and smiled.

"Well done, this time you used your mana to protect your body before you were hit by me. What's more, instead of foolishly using mana as a shield like those laymen, you only keep mana in your body - you see, it's much more effective! ”

"That blow I just hit could have knocked you unconscious. But as a result, you were only knocked away, did not pass out, and still retained the power to cast spells to fight back...... Although it may seem similar at first glance, many times, victory and defeat are the line between life and death! ”

"Disciple understands! Thank you for your advice! ”

"It's good to understand, rest for half an hour, and then continue practicing!" The eldest grandson turned around and walked towards the stone table, "Although you have comprehended this truth, you are not yet proficient. The next thing to do is to practice repeatedly, until this method of fighting becomes instinct, and you can directly fight according to this method without thinking, and then you can truly step into the door of 'integration of law and martial arts'! ”

"Yes!"

…… Many things are just a few words to say, but it takes countless sweat to actually do them.

At the beginning, he gradually became familiar with the feeling of grasping the unity of law and martial arts in battle through sparring with the eldest grandson's uncle and ancestor. As he was able to maintain this state often, the eldest grandson and uncle made a further request, letting him sit in the middle of the martial arts training ground, and dozens of magic weapons around him continued to send out spell bombardments, but he could not always maintain the state of combining magic and martial arts, but only launched it the moment he was hit.

This kind of training is extremely hard, Wu Xie doesn't know how many times Lu Dao has been beaten and can't move, if it weren't for the elixir treatment, I'm afraid that even the soul would be scattered!

But the results of the training are also remarkable, from ignorance to occasional use to habitation, and finally to complete success. Wu Xie only took a total of almost a month to practice this kung fu of combining law and martial arts, and reached the so-called "entry" of the eldest grandson's uncle.

There is no need to exercise, and there is no need to think, but at the moment of battle, the mana is immediately condensed in the body, and it cannot be seen from the outside of the body, but in fact, the skin and flesh have been strengthened to a very amazing point - Wu Xie went to the Heavenly Book World to use the blank body made by Jasmine to experiment, in this case, he was even able to connect the invisible sword with his bare hands, but he only suffered a shallow external injury.

Although the invisible sword is not known for its sharpness, it is also a magic weapon flying sword, and it is as easy as a finger to destroy gold and jade. In other words, in this state of integration of law and force, almost his entire person has become a magic weapon, with terrifying power.

However, the reason why the eldest grandson is so famous is not by this means, but by a higher level of application.

"You have to condense all your mana in the weapons in your hands, and you can't leak it at all." A large pile of all kinds of messy weapons were thrown in front of Wu Jie, "Start practicing, when you can do this, you will understand the true power of my unique kung fu!" ”

This time, it took Wu Xie almost half a year to practice this step.

In half a year, the weapons destroyed due to mistakes were piled up into a mountain, adding a small attraction to the Valley of the Shadows.

And when he finally succeeded in condensing all his mana into a short knife, and then swung the short knife to cut off the stone bars created by the spell cast by the eldest grandson's uncle, he really understood the horror of this kung fu.

That stone bar couldn't cut a single scratch after cutting it with an invisible sword for a long time, but at this moment, he just used an ordinary short knife to cut it with a casual knife!

Although this knife exhausted all the mana condensed in the short knife, there was almost no resistance felt when the knife went down.

When the stone bar was cut in two, he held the short knife that was no longer full of mana and was still ordinary, and stood there stunned for a long time.

"Got it? Defense is actually just incidental, and the real horror of the combination of law and force lies in its invincible attack power! The eldest grandson said proudly, "There is a skill in the Imperial Sword Technique called Condensing Sword into a Needle, which can condense the power of a sword in one point. And my combination of law and martial arts is to condense the mana of my whole body on the weapon, just for one blow. ”

"Except for those really hard things, most of the various defensive techniques in the world use mana to achieve the strengthening effect. And this kind of extra defensive power is useless in front of the weapon of the combination of law and martial arts-when you cut it up, what you cut is not a stone bar that is so strong that even a true spirit magic weapon can cut it continuously, but a pile of powder in the shape of a stone bar. ”

Wu Xie pondered for a moment, and quickly understood what he meant, and his mouth grew in surprise, not knowing how to sigh.

"I was a scorpion, but now I am a human being. The human body is so fragile compared to the body of a demon beast, so I wondered how to solve this problem. Uncle Changsun poured two cups of tea, handed him one, and then recalled while drinking tea, "At first, I thought of using mana to strengthen the body, and it does have a certain effect, but then I suddenly understood that no matter how strong it is, it is useless, because the gap between each other's foundations is too large, and the gap will not narrow when each other can be strengthened with mana." ”

Wu Xie nodded, indicating that he understood.

So I thought differently. Regardless of whether the physical body can be strengthened to the same extent, as long as the other party is hacked to death, it will be fine! The eldest grandson's uncle raised his eyebrows as red as fire, "No matter how strong its physical body is, can it still be stronger than a divine weapon?" ”

So I became a blacksmith and began to figure out how to make more powerful weapons. As a result, it took many years to realize that no matter how good a weapon I crafted, it was not as good as strengthening ordinary mortal iron with mana. In other words, even if I create a divine weapon, it is actually meaningless, the key is just mana confrontation. ”

Wu Xie nodded in response: "That's right, for us monks, all supernatural means must depend on the realm of perception in the final analysis. ”

"But that's not right!" There was a dangerous glint in his eyes under the red eyebrows, "If a child is armed with a sharp blade, he can stab a sturdy adult to death, why is it that when he reaches the world realm of our monks, everything has the power of view?" ”

"I was in retreat for almost 100 years and eventually created this practice. Condense one's own mana into the weapon, so that the weapon can obtain a higher realm and mana, beyond its original level. He smiled slightly, looking very proud, "In the face of this exercise, the protection of mana has lost its meaning, is it hard or fragile?" Sharp or soft? It's all about the texture of the product! ”

Wu Xie couldn't help but exclaim: "In this way, if you have a sharp weapon in your hand, wouldn't any enemy be able to cut it in two?" ”

"Well, that's right. can shoot with a knife, and all its mana is exhausted, just like a person going to an empty building. If you can't kill the enemy, you will die. Although talking about the shortcomings of the exercises, the eldest grandson's face did not have the slightest look of frustration and regret, but was full of wild fighting spirit, "So in the future, you must always have the intention of killing, and you will kill the opponent with one sword, and you must not have the slightest hesitation and tolerance!" ”

Wu Xie was shocked, although it was a soul body, he felt that there was a cold sweat flowing down his back.

"To be honest, I don't really hope you'll ever use this knife in the future. But the road to immortality is rugged and bumpy, and it is also very possible to fight with others, so you must have the determination of 'either kill or be killed'. Just like this earth-shattering blow of the combination of law and force, if you can't kill the opponent, you will temporarily lose your strength and become unable to even resist. The eldest grandson said lightly, "We cultivators should be indifferent and tolerant, but this exercise of mine is diametrically opposed to this way, and it is a true way of killing. If you can't have the intention of killing, then forget about it, so as not to suffer from it. ”

Wu Xie was silent for a while, and asked, "Before the disciple, Senior Uncle Li Xiaoyao also learned this set of exercises, right?" ”

"Yes."

"Did you tell him these things in the first place?"

"That's it."

How did he answer?"

The eldest grandson, Uncle Ancestor, seemed to remember something unhappy, and said angrily: "This kid said, 'Even if I lose my strength after making a move, there is still a senior brother, don't worry'." ”

Wu Jie's tightly locked brows suddenly stretched, and he couldn't help laughing.

Uncle Li Xiaoyao's answer was a bit opportunistic, but his thinking was completely correct.

They don't always fight alone, and many times, they are surrounded by fellow disciples. These brothers and sisters are trustworthy, so why do you have to force yourself into an almost evil path?

"Well, I'll admit that kid has a point." "But you have to remember that if you don't have a reliable companion by your side, then you can't use this kung fu lightly. And - if you're not going to kill your opponent, don't use it! ”

"Without the protection of mana, no matter how powerful the master is, he is actually very vulnerable, and a knife may kill them. So you must be clear about this! ”

"The disciple understands that in ordinary martial arts competitions, even if you want to lose, you can't use such a dangerous trick."

"That's right! There is only one purpose for this kung fu, which is to kill! Unless you're ready to kill, it's only going to get you in trouble, so don't mess around! Remember, remember! ”

Looking at the stern and concerned eyes of the eldest grandson, Wu Xie took a deep breath and lowered his head.

"The teachings of the master and uncle are engraved in the hearts of the disciples!"
