Chapter 289: Sword and Qi
Qin Gang was frightened back by Huang Yuefeng's father and son, and when he was about to escape, he was stopped by the fifth line.
The fifth line is the same swordsman as Qin Gang, and the swordsmanship and martial arts of the two of them are not much different, and it can even be said that they are indistinguishable. However, when the fifth line fought with Crazy Laughing Moon Song before, he fell into the root of the disease, and there were several strands of five elements true qi with completely different properties left in his body. Although he had to be guided by the Fifth Element before, and initially found a way to control and cultivate the Five Elements True Qi, during this time, he actually didn't have much time to cultivate these Five True Qi well.
This Five Elements True Qi was originally a major disaster and disease that the Heavenly Walker Sword Laughing Moon Song inadvertently left him behind, but in the afternoon of the Fifth Element, I also saw from the Laughing Moon Song's water, fire and invisible sword moves that these Five Elements True Qi really has a way to cultivate, and if it is practiced to the extreme, it may be a peerless internal skill. It's just that the fifth line and the Laughing Moon Song are both swordsmen, although the Laughing Moon Song ranks first, and the fame and prestige are far above the fifth line, but out of the self-esteem and arrogance of a swordsman, he can't pull down his head to ask the Laughing Moon Song.
In other words, the Five Elements True Qi in the Fifth Element's body is still not fully integrated with his own True Qi, and the True Qi in his body is still impure.
Therefore, the fifth line was competing with Qin Gang at this time, and naturally he didn't see anything wrong with him. That's mainly because these two great kendo masters have made moves, and of course they are all sword moves, and they haven't used their own internal strength too much to compete hard, and the hard disease of the fifth line has not been affected.
All the sword gates have had disputes about the number of sword gates. Some people believe that sword training should first practice qi, and then use qi to resist the sword, in order to achieve the realm of qi and sword unity, this is the qi sect. Others believe that learning swords should naturally be based on sword practice, and should not put the cart before the horse, first abandon the sword to practice qi, practice sword practice, supreme exquisite sword moves are the foundation of their pursuit, and the true qi internal strength is just an auxiliary skill they use to supplement sword moves, this large group of sword martial artists, it is called the sword sect.
The Qi Sect and the Sword Sect were originally both swordsmen, but because of the different cultivation methods, there were great differences, and they were even a little incompatible.
Among the rivers and lakes, the two largest sword schools are Huashan and Qingcheng, Huashan is known as the first sword school in the world, and the founder of the Qingcheng faction is named Dugu Mengning, who is respected as the sword god by later generations. His status in the rivers and lakes established the status of the Qingcheng faction in the rivers and lakes for hundreds of years to come, and the Qingcheng faction was also destined to have an indispensable and important position in the Sword Gate.
Someone wants to ask, some of these swordsmen want to practice swords, and some want to refine qi, so why not double cultivation of sword qi?
The method of dual cultivation of sword qi is actually not impossible, but to put it bluntly, these are two completely different martial arts paths, and it is an extremely difficult thing to master both methods in hand, and it is impossible for those who are not wise and brave and wise to do it.
In the world, in the tens of thousands of years of rivers and lakes, only a few people have mastered this method of dual cultivation of sword qi.
The ancestor of the Qingcheng faction, the sword god Dugu Mengning is one of them.
His water-breaking sword qi and melancholy sword technique back then happened to be the result of the perfect combination of sword qi dual cultivation. But even so, he left all these important achievements to the disciples of the Qingcheng faction, but the disciples of Qingcheng in later generations still had few disciples to practice. In this dynasty, the Qingcheng faction finally produced two masters, one is Gongsun Chu, the master of Yu Qian, the former head of Qingcheng, and the other is Gongsun Chu's master Changkong Zhenren.
The Qingcheng faction has always pursued the dual cultivation of sword qi for its purpose, but no one has been able to achieve it for many years, and when it was passed on to the real people of the sky, it finally made a new breakthrough. Changkong Zhenren combined the sword qi dual cultivation essentials left by the Qingcheng patriarchs to re-combine the sword and qi perfectly, which led to another important achievement of the sword qi dual cultivation - the red ruthless swordsmanship, and the Qingcheng faction was also able to regain its prestige. However, his disciples are not angry, and no one can inherit the Falling Red Ruthless Sword. This made Changkong very disappointed, he thought that his life's achievement, the Falling Red Ruthless Sword, would be the same as the Water Breaking Sword Qi and the Melancholy Sword, and there would be no successor. Fortunately, not long after his death, his apprentice grandson, Sun Chu, miraculously penetrated the essentials of Luohong's ruthless swordsmanship from some clues he left behind, and finally continued it.
Therefore, the Qingcheng faction is a master of sword qi dual cultivation, and after hundreds of years of history, the three of them have truly reached the perfect realm of sword qi dual cultivation. However, because the Dugu Patriarch left behind the magic method of dual cultivation of sword qi, the descendants of the Qingcheng faction took this as their purpose and vowed to achieve the state of dual cultivation of sword qi. Even if they can't practice the dual cultivation of sword qi, no one will fight each other because of the difference between sword and qi.
But the Huashan faction is different, the Huashan faction is known as the first sword faction in the world, and among the other sword factions, only the Qingcheng faction can compete with it in some short periods of time. More often, among the sword factions, the Huashan faction is still the dominant family.
The Huashan faction is known as the first sword faction in the world, and the battle of sword qi in this sword sect is naturally particularly strong in the Huashan faction. And their ancestor did not leave any sword qi dual cultivation of the wonderful sect, which directly led to the Huashan sect disciples being divided into two factions, the Sword Sect and the Qi Sect. The disciples of the two factions not only recognized their cultivation methods extremely much, but at the same time, they both looked at each other extremely unpleasantly, and it could even be said that they were incompatible.
Since the creation of the Huashan faction, the descendants of the Sword Sect and the Qi Sect have fought countless times, and the power of the Huashan faction has also changed hands several times. There was even a time when the masters of the Sword Sect were almost wiped out by the Qi Sect, but the Qi Sect was never able to let the Huashan Sect carry forward, and finally the Sword Sect made a comeback, made a comeback, and regained the power of the sect. Although the power of the Huashan faction to take charge of the sect has been turned over and over, the battle between the sword and qi of the Sword Gate is still inconclusive.
Not to mention the Sword Sect, just the lone swordsman in the rivers and lakes, just like the Huashan faction, has the distinction between the Sword Sect and the Qi Sect.
Take the top ten swordsmen on the swordsman list as an example, their paths are very different.
The Tianxing Sword Laughing Moon Song and the Slow Sword God Hu Daiwei are the two most important representatives of the Qi Sect; And the fifth line of the sword shadow and the skeleton sword Qin Gang are important figures in the Sword Sect. Although the fame and martial arts of the first two are much greater and stronger than the latter two, this does not mean that the Qi Sect must be superior to the Sword Sect.
The fifth line and Qin Gang are both masters of the Sword Sect, so the sword naturally has very low requirements for internal strength. Therefore, the two of them made moves, and naturally they were mainly compared with swords, and they were inferior to internal force.
The fifth line was originally a master of the Sword Sect, but the big man of the Qi Sect laughed wildly and gave the Five Elements True Qi by mistake.
Fists and feet, grappling, and weapons belong to the outer martial arts, and then to the inner family, and then the five doors are integrated, which is the method of continuous and gradual practice. Therefore, it will take a long time for the fifth line to be promoted from a weapon master to an internal master, and it is still two to say whether it can be successful.
