It was almost dusk, and the gates of Beiyue City were slowly closing, and the curfew time was not far away.

Su Yi was wandering around, while deducing the details of Xinyue Mountain and his party in his heart, thinking about it, what he lacked was strength.

Before I knew it, I walked to the Golden Lion Regiment, and the wooden stake frame that was originally erected had been dismantled, and a few guys were cleaning up the remaining odds.

Su Yi recognized the guy, so he asked, "Brother Lin, what are you doing here?"

"Ouch, it's Xiao Su. Seeing that it was Su Yi, Brother Lin said with a smile, "It's been a long time, the things have been packed up, and the brothers are ready to withdraw." ”

"Withdraw, where to withdraw?" Su Yi didn't know about their rules, so he asked.

"Where there is work, go there. Brother Yang said with a smile.

It is only during the New Year's festival that the people watch the lion dance, and when the days are lighter, the original master of the lion dance has to find something else to make a living.

Su Yi thought of the Li Bochong who had taught him the grace of his profession, and asked, "Is Master Li here?"

Brother Yang tilted his head, pointed to a mansion, and said, "It's inside." ”

Su Yi's heart moved, but he didn't go in, and left in a hurry. When I went and returned, I had two more jars of soju and a few roast chickens and ducks in my hands.

"I'll just tell you why you disappeared all of a sudden, it turned out that you went to buy delicious food for your brothers. Seeing Su Yi walking into the courtyard, Brother Yang laughed and said, about to grab the wine in Su Yi's hand.

Su Yi slapped his hand away and scolded with a smile: "Go farther, this is for Master Li." ”

However, more and more people gathered, and Su Yi only kept a jar of soju and a roast chicken, and shook his head helplessly. Fortunately, he already prepared one for the guys of the Golden Lion Regiment.

Li Bochong, who had been sitting firmly in the middle hall without moving, also put down the dry smoke in his hand, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Master Li, the juniors have come to see you. Su Yi smiled.

"I'm afraid I'm here to say goodbye. Li Bochong quipped. He naturally knew that Su Yi couldn't keep following the Golden Lion Regiment to make a living, and he was afraid that this farewell would be indefinite.

Su Yi's heart inexplicably swelled with sadness, and he reluctantly smiled: "There is no banquet in the world." ”

Li Bochong laughed and said: "Fortunately, you still remember to come to see the old man, and you didn't leave any regrets in the old man's heart." ”

He has the heart to accept Su Yi as a disciple, but he is quite self-aware, and he can't afford to teach Su Yi, so he can only regret it in his heart.

"One day is a teacher and a father for life, and the younger generations dare not forget the master's kindness to the younger generation. The juniors have some doubts in their hearts, and they want to ask the master to answer them for the juniors. Su Yi said sincerely.

"Okay, talk as you eat. Li Bochong opened the soju, poured two bowls, drank one bowl by himself, and pushed the other bowl in front of Su Yi.

Su Yi had never drunk wine, he didn't know the strength of the wine, and he also learned from Li Bochong to drink it all, and he was immediately choked and coughed. The chest cavity and abdomen were like a fire, and I was dizzy and dizzy, and it took me half a day to recover.

Li Bochong picked up the wine jar, knocked on it, and said, "The one you bought is Piaoxiangju's 'Bu Dule', but it is the most expensive and strongest wine in the entire Beiyue City. ”

Seeing that Li Bochong recognized the origin of this jar of wine at will, Su Yi admired it in his heart. Naturally, he doesn't know which wine is better and which is strong, and he only knows how to choose the most expensive one to show his heart.

"Wine is expensive, but it's not for everyone. Just like the guys of our Golden Lion Troupe, their favorite drink is 'burning knives', which is cheap, fragrant when it enters the throat, and has enough stamina. Drink is the mood. Another example is you, who never drink a drop of wine, and that is only suitable for drinking boiled water. Of course, you can buy the most expensive wine to honor the master, and the master is very happy and happy. This altar is not alone, and it tastes better than any wine I have ever drunk before. ”

Su Yi filled the two empty bowls again, only to hear Li Bochong continue: "So, this martial arts is like drinking wine, and learning martial arts is like picking wine." Clever exercises are not suitable for everyone to practice, and three-year-old children can learn the 'Five Birds Opera' at most. It is as high and deep as the 'Nine Thunder Fist', and no one dares to touch it if it is not cultivated in the Fuhu Realm. Speaking of cultivation, the master dares to dry this bowl of 'not alone' in one bite, and his face will not change, but you will be choked with snot. This is called step-by-step, and when the cultivation is high, the steps can naturally be buried larger. When the cultivation is low, you should slow down and not be in a hurry. ”

Su Yi tried to take a sip of wine, and finally no longer showed the same embarrassment as before, but the liquor passed through his throat, leaving a burning sensation.

"The junior originally planned to ask the master for advice on how to improve my cultivation to the Divine Skill Realm in a short period of time, but I didn't expect the master to answer me first. ”

Li Bochong said with emotion: "On the way of cultivation, how can there be a shortcut. If you want to improve your cultivation quickly, you can only spend a lot of time and find ways to walk faster on your own path. ”

"The younger generation has been taught. "After Li Bochong's point, Su Yi has some understanding of the path of cultivation, instead of thinking about ascending to the sky in one step and cultivating to fly in.

"Can you tell the master why you are in a hurry to improve your cultivation?" Li Bochong asked.

"There are some things that the juniors need to do urgently, and they have to find ways to improve their strength. Su Yi replied.

Li Bochong shook his head and said, "You have walked into a misunderstanding. A high level of cultivation does not mean that the strength is high. The Fuhu Realm may not be able to defeat the Dragon Descending Realm, and the purpose of cultivation of even more monks is not martial arts. Cultivation and strength complement each other, the improvement of cultivation can make you exert higher strength, and the improvement of strength can also provide you with the ability to impact a higher realm. So the master has to ask if you urgently need to improve your cultivation, or is it your strength?"

"To improve your cultivation, you need to practice qi, and you need to keep practicing qi. To improve your strength, you need to hone in battle, you need to be proficient in the use of martial arts moves, you need to be familiar with it, and you can even touch the bypass. ”

Su Yi thought for a long time, and then said: "The juniors must not only improve their cultivation, but also improve their strength. ”

In order to refine the Red Phoenix Source God, he had to improve his cultivation. In order to save his life, he had to improve his strength.

Li Bochong suddenly asked: "These are all quite basic things, hasn't anyone taught you?"

Su Yi was stunned for a moment and replied, "The junior has been practicing with the master for a short time, so he has to leave the master and run away alone. These things, maybe the master has not had time to teach them to the younger generation. ”

Li Bochong's question, Su Yi really didn't know how to answer. Guiyangzi only hastily mentioned the Three Realms of Breaking the Law in the book of "Juanbai One Sword", which was indeed because of the suddenness of the incident. As for Bihe, she is not a good teacher herself. As for other reasons, it is inconvenient to talk about identity and demonic spirit.

"In that case, the master will teach you a lesson. Li Bochong took a big sip of wine, spit out a mouthful of wine, and then continued, "In fact, the improvement of cultivation, in the final analysis, is to practice qi and cultivate 'qi mansion'. All living beings in the world, but all those who cultivate, there is nothing more than this. 'Qifu' is just a general term, just like the qi of people who cultivate immortals and cultivators is called 'Lingtai', the qi of spirits and monsters is called 'Neidan', and the qi of people who practice internal kung fu is called 'dantian', and people who practice external kung fu are more special, it can be said that the whole body is regarded as qi and strength is qi. As for those who practice demonic skills, find another way, and you don't practice demonic skills, don't mention it. ”

Su Yixin said: "In addition to foreign kung fu, I have all four of what Master Li said. Doesn't it mean that there is a 'Lingtai', a 'Dantian', and an 'Inner Dan' in my body at the same time?

Li Bochong naturally didn't know what Su Yi was thinking in his heart, and continued: "The improvement of the realm is nothing more than cultivating the dantian to become stronger and stronger, and condensing the internal force to become more and more vigorous. The Upper Three Realms of the Proficiency Realm and the Middle Three Realms of the Dengtang Realm is a watershed, and reaching the Dengtang Realm means that the internal force is strong enough to perform stunts and be able to release the internal force. Only by entering the realm of ascending can you barely be called a master. Because whether the internal force can be released externally can play a key role in actual combat. As for reaching the Divine Skill Realm you just mentioned, you need your internal strength to support you to perform many stunts. Now you can understand why the master wants to separate cultivation from strength?"

"Does it mean that no matter how high the cultivation is, no matter how strong the internal strength is, it is difficult to have the strength to defeat opponents in the same realm without stunts. And even if you have a stunt in your hand, if you don't have enough cultivation, you can't exert the power of the stunt?" asked Su Yi tentatively.

Li Bochong nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's pretty much what it means." In fact, whether it is cultivating internal strength, or cultivating immortals and demons, the realm can be divided by this standard. It's just that cultivating immortals pays attention to spiritual root enlightenment, and cultivating demons pays attention to absorbing the essence of heaven, earth, sun and moon, if it is not for extraordinary talent, it will take a lot of time to improve cultivation. Unlike those who cultivate internal strength, they can accumulate and improve steadily. In the same realm, the power that erupts from immortal cultivators and demon cultivators is much stronger than the internal force, but the realm of those who cultivate internal strength improves much faster. ”

"How fast can it be?" Su Yi couldn't help but ask.

Li Bochong laughed and said: "If you want to hurry, you can't reach it." But there is no way, in addition to swallowing the elixir, cultivating the profound internal strength and mental method can also make your cultivation improve rapidly. It's just that it depends on understanding. The so-called advanced exercises, just like this bowl of 'not solitary pleasure', I let you drink it in one gulp, and you will definitely have to spit it out. But if you can understand the way to drink the bowl now, the wine will enter your stomach. Got it?"

Su Yi slapped his thigh and said, "The junior knows! If the junior can fully comprehend the internal strength and mental method in the Knowing Realm, then the cultivation will improve by leaps and bounds, right?"

"That's right. Li Bochong smiled and nodded.
