Chapter 57: The Five Elements in One (II)
Although Li Yichen was ready to combine the five true qi in his body into one according to the principle of the five elements of mutual growth, in fact, even he himself was not completely sure, after all, from the first day of cultivation in this Tianyun Continent, all the martial artists in the Tianyun Continent from the first day of their cultivation, whether it was emphasized in the first line of the first page of the "Five Elements Foundation", which is known as the Holy Book of Enlightenment, or what the Enlightenment Master repeatedly admonished, was only the Five Elements of Mutual Restraint.
If there are two or more True Qi running in the body, you must be careful not to use these two different True Qi at the same time, otherwise once the Five Elements are generated, you will be killed, or you will go mad, your meridians will be completely broken, and your martial arts will be lost.
And for thousands of years, countless battles have also verified the correctness of the five elements.
If the cultivation of the two is comparable, but the five elements true qi attributes of the two are mutually restrictive, the side that is defeated will be restrained everywhere in the process of fighting, and will eventually lose.
Therefore, for thousands of years, whether you are a genius of the two or three true qi systems, almost all of them have kept in mind the principle of the five elements of mutual restraint, and they dare not cross the thunder pool half a step when the true qi is running.
Even if there are a few geniuses who want to take another shortcut and take the usual path, the final outcome is due to the reason of the five elements, and finally disappear and fall on the road of innovation.
Therefore, for the Five Elements Xiangke, this is the common sense that all martial artists in the Tianyun Continent must master, but if you ask anyone a question about the five elements of each other, he will ask you in surprise, how is this possible?
The integration of the five elements is also the first time for Li Yichen that the big girl got on the sedan chair - although he tried to transform the gold system true qi into the water system true qi in the competition with Zhao Gaoyi, and also achieved good results.
But Li Yichen also had no clue about the transformation of other true qi and how to integrate them, after all, how did these five elements coexist? How did these five elements come together? That is, in all the history of this Tianyun Continent, no one had ever succeeded, and even in the legends of ancient times, no one had ever heard of it, and all of this had to be explored by Li Yichen himself, because there was no ancient precedent to follow at all.
"It's not too early, in order not to delay everyone's time, let's have a trick to win or lose, if you take my move, then this game is considered to be your win. ”
Li Yichen, who was retreating backwards, did not wait for his footsteps to stand firm, so he hurriedly said to Ye Yun.
Although Li Yichen has confidence in the unity of the five elements, after all, he has never done it like this before, not to mention that it takes time to figure out the principle of the five elements one by one, that is, it takes a certain amount of time to run the true qi, and it will take a certain amount of time to combine the five true qi into one.
If Ye Yun came over to continue to fight with him at the same time as his luck, he would be defeated by him without even having a chance to perform the Five Elements in One, so Li Yichen just stepped back, and the first thing he did was to open his mouth to make an appointment with Ye Yun, hoping to delay the time for the other party to make a move with him, so as to give himself enough time and luck.
"Don't say one move, it's ten moves, just rely on you Li Yichen and don't want to bargain for the slightest advantage on me. Why don't you let me see what kind of surprise you can bring me?"
Although in the round of attack that Li Yichen carried out just now, Ye Yun waited for work and attacked with defense, and did not let Li Yichen take advantage of the slightest, but in the whole process, Li Yichen also behaved like a loach and did not slip his hands, and all the sword moves were sticky and left, without giving himself the slightest chance to fight back. So much so that the anger that he raised when Li Yichen was bandaged just now could not break out, and he let Li Yichen escape several times when he was about to miss and seriously injure the other party.
Now Li Yichen opened his mouth to make an appointment, saying that he wanted to decide the winner with one move, which was simply Li Yichen sending the opportunity to Ye Yun.
"It was a great opportunity to vent my anger. When you wait for the next hand, you must be very careful to miss Li Yichen and knock him away. ”
After hearing Li Yichen say that he wanted to win or lose in one move, Ye Yun suddenly felt a burst of secret joy in his heart, so he pretended to give the other party a chance to give him plenty of time to perform.
After hearing Ye Yun agree to his gambling contract, Li Yichen breathed a sigh of relief. Now that you've created your chances, you have to perform well and try for the final victory.
After slowly exhaling a mouthful of turbid breath in his body, Li Yichen threw the long sword in his hand to the edge of the ring, and then hugged the circle with both hands, breathed down the dantian, and tried to communicate with the little black card where the dantian was.
After seeing Li Yichen throw the long sword, Ye Yun's heart was happy again.
Although the sword has no eyes, if Li Yichen is really ruthless, those teachers of the academy will definitely be dissatisfied with him, and even give himself a certain punishment. And if you use fists and kicks to fight, even if you beat Li Yichen seriously and lie in bed for a few months, I believe that the academy will not say anything, after all, the scene is not so bloody.
Thinking of this, Ye Yun pretended to be proud and threw the long sword in his hand far away and said:
"Since you don't use weapons, then I won't take advantage of you, so let's see the level of our fists and feet!"
"Hey, why did Li Yichen give up his weapon? Could it be that his kung fu with his fists and feet is even more powerful?"
"I don't think it's possible, everyone has seen the competition in the past few days, and the boxing method that Li Yichen knows is just a set of "Taiyi Five Elements Boxing Method". This set of boxing techniques is nothing more than an intermediate boxing technique. How can this boxing technique be compared to the status boxing method that Ye Yun learned?"
"Or is it that Li Yichen has newly learned the boxing technique of status and is ready to show it for competition?"
"It's even more impossible, as the saying goes, the fist never leaves the hand. Every set of boxing techniques must be tempered and practiced continuously before they can master its essence, and this Li Yichen has only been able to break through to the status for a few days, ten days or half a month? In such a short period of time, I don't think it is possible for him to completely master a new set of boxing techniques. ”
When he heard someone next to him say that Li Yichen abandoned his sword and used his fists to compete because his fist and foot kung fu was more powerful than his swordsmanship, a slightly older student with thick eyebrows and big eyes next to him expressed a different opinion.
"And the academy stipulates that if you want to learn new kung fu, you must meet the requirements of your own cultivation to meet the requirements of gong cultivation, if Li Yichen wants to learn the boxing method of status, it must be after he breaks through to the cultivation of status. In the short time since Li Yichen broke through to his status, I don't think it is possible for him to completely master a new set of boxing techniques.
Since you can't fully master the new boxing technique, it's better to use it than to use it well. And the martial arts of the human position cannot compete with the martial arts of the status at all, I think there are other reasons for Li Yichen to abandon the sword. ”
After a pause, the slightly older student added.
"Maybe Li Yichen's family has an ancestral status boxing technique, and he has been learning it since he was a child, and he will show it and prepare for a blockbuster. ”
"This is also impossible, everyone knows why the power of status martial arts is far greater than that of human position martial arts, it is because the line of the true qi of this status martial arts is very different from the line of human position martial arts. If you practice the martial arts of status when you are cultivating in the human position, because some acupuncture points in the human body have not yet been opened, the true qi will inevitably be blocked when it runs to these acupuncture points. As Li Yichen's elder, how could he allow him to cultivate status martial arts before he broke through to his status?"
"Maybe Li Yichen is ready to use a set of people's "Taiyi Five Elements Boxing Method" to fight with Ye Yun? You must know that Li Yichen only relied on a set of intermediate "Spring Rain Sword Technique" with "Liangyi Weibu" to defeat many veteran status masters in the academy. Otherwise, they are geniuses. ”
"Although Li Yichen can defeat other veteran masters, but in the face of Ye Yun, I feel hanging. ”
If Li Yichen's abandonment of the sword was a surprise to Ye Yun, but for the audience under the ring, it was surprising and incredible, the big guys were speculating and guessing Li Yichen's intentions.
In fact, the act of abandoning the sword is also a helpless move for Li Yichen, the so-called integration of the five elements is based on the principle of the five elements of mutual growth, endlessly, and the five kinds of true qi in the body are combined into one true qi to be displayed. But what kind of true qi can these five true qi be combined into one kind in the end, Li Yichen has no bottom in his heart.
Since I don't know what type of true qi will be formed in the end, I can't be sure if this true qi will have a power bonus effect on the "Spring Rain Sword Technique" of the water system or will reduce the power of this set of swordsmanship, as for casting other swordsmanship, Li Yichen will not be able to do it at all, after all, he has learned to master this swordsmanship, so in the face of this unknown, it is better to simply abandon the sword and not use it.
In addition, Li Yichen and Ye Yun agreed on a move to win or lose, so they must solve the other party within one move, and at least let the other party temporarily lose the ability to continue fighting. In order to achieve this goal, combined with the practice of the integration of the five elements, Li Yichen is ready to come to a force to reduce ten meetings, but the sword is light and agile, so it is completely unsuitable for the next hard battle, since this is the case, it is better to simply not use the long sword in his hand, and directly use his fists and feet to solve the problem.
Although there is no way to know the origin of the mysterious black card entrenched in the dantian, Li Yichen knows that he has changed from a completely uncultivated waste material to today's gorgeous turn in the ring that can stand in the final of the academy competition, and the biggest credit comes from this mysterious black card.
Since there is no cultivation method of the five elements in this world, and the slightly more advanced exercises, Li Yichen will only have a water-based "Spring Rain Sword Technique" exercise line, so when Li Yichen tried to communicate with the black card in the dantian, he was running the most basic martial arts mental method in the Tianyun Continent - the golden mental method in the "Five Elements Foundation".
Li Yichen took a light breath, and then put this breath into the lungs along the trachea, the lung qi cleared and fell, the qi sank into the dantian, the large intestine was lowered, and the appetite was also followed.
Lung Qi is gold, and gold gives birth to water.
After entering the dantian on the first day of the lung qi operation, Li Yichen hurriedly turned the line where the true qi ran into the line of the water system exercises in the "Five Elements Foundation". The true qi slowly runs to the Yongquan acupoint, the Ran Valley, and the Taixi, along the Zushao Yin and Kidney Meridians, and finally to the Yufu acupoint for a week.
After the luck route of the water system exercises ran the true qi in the body for a week, Li Yichen did not change the running route of the true qi to the luck routes of the other five elements, but continued to run the true qi in the body according to the water system exercises.
This is because Li Yichen has only tried Jin Shengshui, and he has not tested the five elements behind the symbiosis, so he doesn't know what other exercises to convert to for a while.
One week, two weeks, the true qi has been running in the body.
At the same time as the true qi was running, Li Yichen's mind was also running at a high speed.
"We have experimented with gold and water, and according to the principle of the five elements, water should be fire, which means that water can neither produce gold nor fire, excluding gold and fire, then water can only be wood or earth. ”
"Since the five elements are mutually refuting, fighting, and balancing, does this mean that the five elements are mutually prosperous, which means generating and cultivating?"
While exercising, Li Yichen kept asking himself.
"Since the five elements are mutually reinforcing, then the growth of wood needs water to nourish and grow, is this aquatic wood? ”
Without the experience of his predecessors as a guide, Li Yichen could only try slowly, and after comparison, he believed that water should be wood.
After thinking about it, Li Yichen immediately put this into action.
Li Yichen introduced the true qi of the water system into the dantian, and then carefully guided the true qi to the Dadun acupoint with the wooden exercises, along the inner side of the dorsum of the foot, through the middle sealing acupoint, and ascended through the Sanyin Jiao, the true qi slowly ran upward, to the lower abdomen, sandwiched on both sides of the stomach, belonging to the liver, the gallbladder, up through the diaphragm, distributed in the flank ribs, along the throat, up into the nasopharynx, connecting the eye system, and reaching the top of the forehead to meet with the Du Mai.
The true qi in his body ran along the Yin and Liver meridians of the foot for a week, and Li Yichen felt that the dizziness in his brain caused by the massive blood loss had been greatly relieved.
The liver mainly stores blood, and the true qi runs along the foot syncope yin and liver meridians to replenish the blood stored in the liver to the brain.
After successfully transforming the water system true qi in his body into wood system true qi, after having this good start, Li Yichen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, so it seems that his inference is correct, among the five elements, gold and wood, wood and earth, earth and water, water and fire, and fire and gold, all of which refute each other, fight each other, and check and balance. All things between heaven and earth are opposed to each other, there is death and life, there is yin and yang, and the five elements corresponding to the five elements must be mutually prosperous, gold gives birth to water, water gives birth to wood, drilling wood and making fire, and then it should be wood to make fire.
On the fire, when the energy is released, life also comes to an end, only a pile of ashes remains, and life is reduced to a handful of loess, which is the fire earth.
The soil is neutral, it is the turning point of upward, extroverted, and expanded to the extreme, and contains the power of fame, as well as downward, slaughtering, and convergence, so it is "native gold".
After grasping the basic law of the five elements, everything left becomes extremely simple, water is the source of life, wood is the essence of life, wood is fire, fire is the beginning of civilization, fire burns wood for soil, the earth is the foundation of life, the earth hides qi, and the nine heavens on the qi turn into rain, and everything forms an orderly cycle.
The so-called symbiosis is to conform to the development of nature, and mutual restraint is to violate the laws of nature, which is also to conform to the birth and reverse restraint.
One week, two weeks, three weeks, four weeks, five kinds of true qi in Li Yichen's body turned into four, four became three, and finally only one kind of true qi circulated in the body, and this true qi would become gold true qi for a while, a water true qi would become a water true qi, and a wood true qi would be transformed back and forth among the five elements.
True Qi was running in Li Yichen's body, and his whole person's momentum became stronger and stronger. At this time, Li Yichen's cultivation was improving at a speed that could be seen clearly with the naked eye, and in the blink of an eye, he was promoted by the cultivation of the first and middle stages of the status to the second and middle stages, and became the cultivation of the middle stage of the second level.
I felt that my cultivation was rising step by step, and it was not until the middle of the second level of my status that I slowly stopped. But at this time, Li Yichen always felt that something was still a little wrong, and he felt that something was missing. He knew that although he was now a second-level mid-stage cultivator, this move was still not powerful enough, it was just able to cause Ye Yun a little trouble, and he couldn't defeat the other party, which might be what he felt was a little wrong.
"By the way, this trick is just the birth of the five elements, not the unity of the five elements. Although the five true qi in the body were transformed into one true qi, it did not cause a qualitative change, and this true qi was still one of the five elements true qi. ”
In his mind, with a flash of inspiration, Li Yichen suddenly discovered the problem.
"Then how can the five elements be one, and what kind of true qi will this be after the five elements are one?"
Once one problem is discovered, others follow.
"Tao gives birth to one, life to two, two to three, three to all things, all things are a process from less to more, from simple to complex, so since it is to unite the five elements, is it to return to the original?"
"Returning to the primordial, that is to return to chaos, so how can we return these five elements of true qi to chaos?"
One subversive question after another appeared in Li Yichen's mind, and it was fortunate that he had still received basic education in the first year of the academy for so many years, and he had not learned the cultivation of other systems, otherwise these problems that were completely contrary to the current martial arts system might have made him collapse.
"On the fire, when the energy is exhausted, life also comes to an end, only a pile of ashes remains, life returns to a handful of loess, when the life of fire comes to an end, his form is transformed into another form.
Then, if we break the balance of the true qi of the five elements, completely annihilate them, and then fuse them together, will it be the unity of the five elements? ”
When this thought came to Li Yichen's mind, he himself felt crazy about this idea.
Li Yichen is worthy of being a master of the arts, and it can also be said that in order to win this victory, he has completely let go, and as soon as he thought of the word "break and then stand", he immediately put it into action.
