Chapter 42: Exercise (Thanks to Fisher's Slow Fisherman's Alliance Leader!) )
It's no wonder that he is.
After all, slowing down your breathing rate and calming your body isn't much different from sleeping...... In other words, the so-called pre-positioning of the guidance technique is actually a kind of controllable deep sleep, which can quickly restore physical strength and channel the energy that is already latent in the body.
And when one can grasp this dream-like tranquility, in this tranquility, can still control the body, grasp the rhythm of breathing, and add fuel to the furnace of one's body, can it be regarded as a true masterpiece.
"It's going fast."
When he noticed that Ian was really asleep and slept soundly, Hilliard was not only not annoyed, but comforted and caressed: "Only when the heart is quiet can you fall asleep in an instant...... Children's minds are chaotic and their thoughts are flying, how can they say that they will sleep? ”
"Being able to say sleep means that you can initially master your body, and then learn to guide and grasp the rhythm of breathing, but it is just a matter of course."
Children's minds are pure, but in fact they are just ignorant, their thoughts are so chaotic that sometimes they don't know what they want to do, their self-concept is actually very thin, and they can't even perceive the fear of danger and death, which is why children can't pay attention to the carriage on the street, and even deliberately suddenly burst out of the roadside.
Therefore, the practice of serious sublimation can generally be started after the end of puberty, the mind is stable, and there is no interference from hormones.
Only when the big family has a good enough lineage and enough human teachers to guide the cultivation process, can the cultivation time be advanced.
Hilliard recalls his past when he began his ascension at the age of fourteen and learned the art of channeling in ten days, impressing his mentor, father, and everyone in his family.
And now, eight-year-old Ian may be able to master it in less than a week.
However, Hilliard felt that there was also a reason for Ian's awakening of psionic powers.
Most psionics practice channeling techniques, and most of them get twice the result with half the effort, after all, their power comes from the mind, and the same is true of channeling, which is a skill of the same origin.
But even so, Ian's talent is at least comparable to his...... Maybe it's a little worse in terms of physical fitness, but he didn't awaken his spiritual energy at the age of eight, and rounding it up, it's really not too much.
"It's light."
Hilliard picked up the sleeping Ian and sent him back into the house, where she could feel the difference between the children of the Southern Settlement and the children of the Imperial Capital, who weighed at least five-thirds the weight of the former.
He couldn't help but sigh: "There are still children in the empire who are starving, and there are still people in the empire who don't have enough to eat. ”
"Our business ......"
Hilliard shook his head, then shut up.
He laid Ian on the bed, gently covered the blanket, and the old knight walked out of the house and disappeared into the night.
A dreamless night.
When Ian woke up, he felt refreshed and refreshed.
"The brain was cool...... I feel like even the psionic energy is running a lot more comfortably! ”
The boy couldn't help but smack his tongue in surprise, he had slept better than ever before, and it could even be said that he could even remember the most comfortable time.
Activating the Foresight Horizon and looking around, the speed at which the fog changes is indeed a little faster than before.
Try to recall last night.
Even though he was asleep, Ian still felt a warm stream of heat gushing out of his heart, circulating back and forth throughout his body, as if soaking every cell, bone, tendon, and internal organ...... The head seems to be soaked in comfortable warm water, but there is no suffocation at all, and it is extremely relaxed and comfortable.
Unfortunately, the feeling didn't last long before he woke up.
And when I woke up, it was already the next morning.
"Deep sleep."
Perceiving the difference between subjective and objective time, Ian pondered, "This technique is just getting started, and it can make people sleep well...... Not to mention that it can accelerate the condensation of essentia, this alone is worth my serious study. ”
A good night's sleep sounds simple, but in fact, how many people can't ask for it?
But obviously, this sleep also comes at a price. As soon as Ian got up to uncover the blanket, he felt a wave of hunger, as if he hadn't eaten for two days, and his chest was pressed against his back.
It seems that the breathing rhythm of the guided surgery, as well as the deep sleep state afterwards, will consume a lot of nutrients while warming the body.
At this moment, he smelled the smell of fish soup coming from the hall.
"Awake? Go out and exercise, it's still too hot. ”
He got up and came to the hall, just in time to see Hilliard come up with a pot of fish soup that had been stewed, he looked at Ian, who had just woken up, and then he said, "The porridge is also cooked, and you will bring some fish soup to feed your brother, he will not let me feed it." ”
“…… Good! ”
Ian could already smell the rich aroma, and the gurgling in his belly was even louder, but he gritted his teeth and agreed, and turned his head out the door, ready to do a few stretches.
Hilliard followed out the door, he originally wanted to see how Ian would exercise himself, and then open his mouth to instruct some correct warm-up and exercise movements, and develop the other party's exercise habit little by little.
But he was surprised to find that Ian's warm-up and workouts were quite orderly.
Although it is not used as a precursor to various fighting skills, and the training intensity is not enough, it is completely sufficient in terms of stretching the body and invigorating the muscles and bones.
"There is always humanity and wisdom. The true Chosen One does not need to be taught by others, and he can develop his own martial arts and inheritance ......"
He couldn't help muttering in his heart, feeling very emotional: "I didn't believe it, after all, even I couldn't do it, but I didn't expect that I could really meet one." ”
If Ian could hear Hilliard's emotion, he would definitely laugh in his heart.
Although genetic modification has become the norm on Earth, biological machines also need to be maintained and operated from time to time to keep them intact, especially if they work in a weightless environment in space, and they must keep exercising so as not to get space sickness.
This set of aerobics is indeed simple, but it also covers the most important parts of the body, and it is the most advanced exercise method.
Since Ian already has his own workout method, Hilliard is not in a hurry in this regard.
At this moment, he is observing Ian's exercise habits, noting down the gaps in this workout method, preparing to complete it, and then derive a follow-up exercise plan based on it.
"Let's go back to dinner."
Twenty minutes later, Hilliard called a halt.
By the time Ian, who was panting slightly, returned to the hall, the old knight had already served a large bowl of fish soup, which was the leftover ingredients from last night, and there was no waste of it.
Ian looked at it curiously, and found that there were still patches of verdant wild vegetables in the bowl, which should have been picked by Hilliard from the forest last night, and had a strange fragrance and astringency, just enough to relieve the tiredness and refresh the mind.
Apparently, Hilliard's cooking skills were quite good, and Ian didn't seem to gobble up anything, but he quickly settled the bowl of fish soup in front of him.
"It's been stewed for a long time, hasn't it? And these wild herbs......"
After eating, he put down the bowl and fork with satisfaction, and Ian raised his head and looked at Hilliard suspiciously: "Teacher, you didn't sleep?" ”
"I don't need to sleep. Sleeping all the time. ”
Hilliard tapped his sideburns with his index finger: "My brain is half asleep, half awake, and the second energy level can do it." ”
Not paying attention to Ian's thoughtful expression, he asked, "How's the progress of the Source Seed?" ”
"There's already a little bit of context."
Ian nodded, already understanding the structure of the virtual source species.
At the end of the day, it's not complicated, it's even a bit like a simplified turbine engine, except that it's the blood, or the 'essentia detritus' contained in the blood, that runs it.
When a person eats food, part of the energy contained in the food will become essentia debris and disperse into the bloodstream of the whole body.
When the heart itself beats, it plays a role in pushing the blood, and the source species will be absorbed along the blood into the heart's essentia debris, compressed into high-density and high-pressure real essentia, stored, and waiting for the release when needed, enhance physical strength, or condense and sublimate the organs.
Because of this, breath guidance can encourage the source of the 'turbocharged engine' to speed up.
And the turbine engine that really runs is not an existence where there is no end to the inhalation and no end to the exhalation?
Although Ian has completely dissected the structure of the source species, as long as the essentia has accumulated more or less the same, he can begin to turn the virtual source species into a real source species.
But he didn't plan to be too shocking, he didn't have to race the fastest, but he wanted to continue to sense, familiarize, and make sure that he could be perfect before condensing.
After all, cultivation is the same as overhauling the spaceship, and it is not rushed.
"If you don't understand something, you can come and ask me, and when you plan to try it, tell me a day in advance, and I will help you observe it when you condense."
Hilliard didn't think that the source seed could stump Ian, he nodded, patted Ian's shoulder, and encouraged: "Exercise in the morning, practice the channeling technique in the evening, and the rest of the time you are free to decide, I trust your self-control." ”
"As for the potion, don't worry, that's the last step."
"Well, I understand."
Ian knows very well that everything is in a hurry.
Although after awakening the spiritual energy, his body seems to be much more powerful, but in essence, it is only the spiritual energy that stimulates the potential of the body, which is a slow overdraft.
His body was quite weak, and he was still the body of an eight-year-old child who had been abused for a long time and rarely fed.
After condensing the Source Seed, he needs to exercise for a period of time to improve his physical fitness, so that he can gradually bear the load of the channeling technique and the drastic changes that the potion will have on his body in the future.
After breakfast, Ian continued to work out at home, while Hilliard went out disguised as Orsna.
In the eyes of outsiders, 'Ausena' is indeed quite 'injured', but he is originally disabled, doing port paperwork, and a little injury on his body does not prevent him from writing.
What's more, the physical fitness of the Terra people is unbelievably good, and what Ian thinks is a serious injury, for the locals, it may be a little more serious than having their fingernails lifted.
- Stabbed twice? Isn't it good to put some saliva on it?
No joke. Ian suspects that the Terra's bodily fluids really have the ability to disinfect.
At this moment, at home, Ian is trying to master his psionic 'foresight'.
After many attempts and verifications, two hours later, he had a deeper understanding of the 'Foresight'.
