237. Wear an iron mask, climb an iron pillar, and ripple breathing

In the previous life, many people degraded the old man as a fool.

It was also easy for Dudley to clean up his remnants and the first two Horcruxes

But he's the most dangerous in the world (albeit a little worse).

Dudley had fought Voldemort possessed by Quirrell, and he was really not weak at all.

If it was in its heyday, it really deserved the title of Dark Lord.

At the height of his power, no one in the entire wizarding world could disobey him head-on.

Almost all of them fled.

Even the greatest White Wizard, Dumbledore, avoided it.

If Dumbledore was really Voldemort's nemesis, as the outside world boasted, he would have killed Voldemort long ago.

He wasn't Dumbledore, he didn't pin his hopes on an ethereal prophecy, he trusted himself more.

Dudley didn't stop at Squib and soon returned to Hogwarts, where Dumbledore had not yet returned.

For the next period of time, Dudley temporarily suspended other aspects of research and began to specialize in Ripple Qigong.

He had a hunch that his ripple qigong was about to break through again

Dudley finally reached the stage of development, and his body began to grow wildly.

Ripple Qigong will also break through so quickly.

In the early morning, the sky had just opened a crack, and a faint light shone on the earth, and five of the six members of the discipline group had already begun to exercise as usual.

In between workouts, they occasionally cast their gaze toward a position.

"Brother D's training is getting more and more perverted."

"This starts in the middle of the night."

As he trotted, Malfoy whispered.

"If I wore that, I would have died."

Ron, who was on his side, decisively mocked: "Remove what should be, you will definitely die." ”

"Looks like you don't know how to do it, why don't you try it later?"

Draco taunted back mercilessly.

If Ron usually would have retorted, but this time when he heard Draco's words, Ron rarely didn't answer.

Because that's really going to die.

"Harry, are you sure Brother D is okay?" Neville asked in a whisper.

Even with his size, he couldn't breathe even if he wore it.

"Brother D never does things that he is not sure of."

Harry had faith in Dudley.

In his heart, there was nothing Dudley couldn't do.

Hermione, who was running at the front, was silent, but from time to time she looked at her, betraying her mood at this time.

Dudley, the protagonist of the conversation, is wearing a huge iron mask on his face at this time, and he is seen climbing a huge iron pillar little by little, and most importantly, the iron pillar is coated with oil, making the whole pillar extremely slippery.

Normal people can't even hold it, let alone climbing.

Not only the iron pillar, but also the iron mask was a simple iron mask, which was not only ugly but also very heavy.

The iron mask on Dudley's face is used to train breathing, and the most important and crucial part of Ripple Qigong is the correct breathing, which is the so-called breathing method, and physical exercise is secondary.

If you can't use the correct breathing technique, it will have a suffocating effect.

And the iron pillar coated with oil is also for exercising ripple qigong, but that exercise is the use of qigong.

Breathing and exercising are indispensable.

This is the next stage of exercise after continuing to use Ripple Qigong and treading water.

Dudley never gave up on training, and he never slackened for a day, because he knew that his body was better at melee combat than at learning spells.

He has practiced Bajiquan, Taizu Changquan, Hung Boxing, Wing Chun, and Volleyball Boxing.

It's just that more of the focus is on ripple qigong.

Whew

Dudley, who was climbing the iron pillar, began to gradually thicken his breathing as he slipped again and again.

Iron masks not only carry weight, but also make it difficult to breathe.

In addition, climbing the iron pillar is a very physical work.

Sweat is like rain, and the clothes on my body have long been soaked with sweat.

Fortunately, his physical strength and endurance can no longer be measured by 'ordinary people'.

Every slip boosts his fighting spirit.

The more you climb, the braver you climb.

The palm covered with golden sparks rested lightly on the oil-coated iron pillar, and with a slight force on the arm, the body was driven into the air, followed by the other palm, and the same way

The palms the size of the pampas fan, as if they had suction cups, were clinging to the iron pillar.

Climb towards the top of the iron pillar.

When the Ripple Qigong is cultivated to a high and profound realm, it can easily achieve the level of 'fighting cattle across the mountain', and can destroy the ground under his feet without harming him in the slightest.

This is what Dudley is doing now, but the difficulty of 'climbing the iron pillar through the oil' is a little higher than that of 'fighting cattle across the mountain'.

Don't look at the extent that Dudley is only LV2, in fact, it is quite profound, and ordinary people can touch the edge of LV2 even if it is a ripple qigong achievement.

A slap in the face.

Climb the iron pillar full of oil.

Eventually, as Harry and the others were about to finish their training, Dudley made it to the top of the pillar.

"It worked." Dudley took off the iron mask, wiped his face, and slapped a bead of sweat out.

But he was not satisfied with this, just stood on the top of the iron pillar and wore an iron mask and took a few deep breaths, and soon slid down from the top of the pillar again, and began to climb again from the base of the pillar.

Just because you succeed once doesn't mean you can succeed the next.

Dudley wants to make it to the top every time.

The presence of the mask constantly corrects Dudley's wrong breathing, and the climbing of the oil and iron pillar not only gives Dudley physical exercise, but also allows him to constantly improve his use.

With the growth of physical fitness, the growth rate of his ripple qigong is also rapid, and the use of ripple qigong has reached a higher level.

Finally, after a week of practice, no matter how many times I was able to climb to the top of the iron pillar perfectly.

On the day of completion, the Ripple Qigong was also upgraded from the original LV2 level to LV3.

The next training item of Ripple Qigong has also been planned early, that is, a one-finger handstand.

Listening to a one-finger handstand is not a rare project, Dudley was able to do it before entering Hogwarts, in fact, it is not an ordinary one-finger handstand, not on the ground but on the tip of a knife.

The difficulty skyrockets

However, instead of actually looking for a knife and running over to a one-finger handstand, Dudley chose an object similar to the tip of a knife as the training target - the tip of the roof of Hogwarts Castle.

This is not much less difficult than the real tip of a knife, and the danger factor is higher.

Once a mistake falls from such a high place, it is not just as simple as injury, the little wizards passing below may be smashed into meatloaf.

So he didn't choose a handstand at the beginning.

Instead, try to stand at the top of the castle house with your toes.

Wait until you are thoroughly used to it before doing a one-finger handstand.

My book friends should know that the author of Demon Slayer is actually a fan of the author of JOJO, right?

The breathing method of Demon Slayer is a reference to JOJO's ripple qigong.
