Half a year has passed, and autumn has gone to winter. The cold wind howls on the punishment peak of Danxia Mountain, the grass and trees are withered and yellow, only a small number of dwarf pines are still standing, and the verdant pine needles are swaying in the cold wind. At this time, the peak of the Punishment Peak had been covered with a thick layer of frost.

Lu Ping was wearing a thin single coat, and on the top of this mountain with a large temperature difference between day and night, the two single clothes that Lu Ping brought when he went up the mountain were always replaced and worn on his body. With the increase of internal strength, the thinness of the clothes no longer seems to have an effect on Lu Ping. I saw him carrying a boulder on one shoulder, running fast on the top of the mountain. It was a whole hour before Lu Ping stopped.

Putting down the stone on his shoulder, Lu Ping raised his head and exhaled to the sky. Then he sank into the dantian, clenched his hand into a fist, and punched forward. Lu Ping's punches are slow and fast. But every punch has a clear punch. Each punch is different. Sometimes, a punch is struck, causing the air to vibrate repeatedly. Sometimes, a punch is thrown without causing the slightest change•••••• but it is much more difficult to carry a big rock on your shoulder. But in the boxing that lasted less than an hour, Lu Ping was already sweating profusely and soaking wet.

Accompanying Lu Ping's punch was the flow of true qi in his body. The dantian true qi was divided into strands and dispersed around the body, and finally converged on Lu Ping's fist and sent outward. While Lu Ping was exercising his fists, he felt the changes in the true qi in his body. He was looking for the most suitable punch path, the easiest way to run True Qi. With the consumption of Lu Ping's true qi, while Lu Ping was recovering on the side, a large amount of heaven and earth spiritual qi also entered Lu Ping's body, increasing the supply in his body.

More than an hour passed, and Lu Ping finally gave up. Withdraw your fists and sit on the spot. Then he used the Ben Lei Mind Method and meditated intently. That trace of heaven and earth aura constantly replenished the true qi consumed in Lu Ping's body. True Qi is generated on the surface of the body and flows into the dantian along the meridians, and with the influx of true qi, the Luping dantian slowly overflows.

The gaseous true qi slowly rotated in the Luping dantian, and with the flow of time, the speed of the rotation of the dantian true qi gradually slowed down, and after the dantian was densely covered with gaseous true qi, the rotation of the true qi in the dantian almost stopped. But at this time, a large amount of true qi was still being generated at the meridians, converging towards the Luping Dantian. The true qi in the dantian was still pouring in, and for a long time, the true qi in the dantian no longer rotated, but the internal density was slowly increasing and slowly condensing.

Lu Ping concentrated all his consciousness in his body, feeling the changes in the true qi in the dantian at any time. Luck meditates on weekdays, and often after the true qi in the dantian reaches a certain amount, it is difficult to inject the true qi into it. The amount of this true qi stored in the dantian can only be increased by constantly compressing the true qi. At this time, Lu Ping concentrated on introducing the true qi transformed by the aura of heaven and earth into the dantian in his body.

The gaseous true qi that was constantly injected into the dantian was compressed sharply, and in a sudden moment. A drop of fiery red liquid was produced in that gaseous true qi. As soon as the fiery red liquid was generated, it moved to the center of the dantian. As the true qi was continuously injected, the fiery red liquid condensed drop by drop. Drop by drop, it moved towards the center of the dantian and converged into a liquid whole. In the beginning, the fiery red liquid is produced more slowly. With the formation of the liquid state as a whole, Lu Ping's speed of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth suddenly accelerated, and the speed of true qi production in his body also increased significantly. For a while, the fiery red liquid in the dantian in Lu Ping's body continued to generate, and drops of fiery red liquid gathered towards the center of the dantian like flying sparks.

With the production of the first drop of fiery red liquid, Lu Ping's consciousness also suddenly moved. The sea of consciousness suddenly became much wider, and many mysterious things in the heavens and the earth suddenly entered consciousness. Lu Ping felt this wonderful change, and he clearly felt that every meridian in his body was slowly expanding as if it was suddenly infused with vitality. A large amount of heaven and earth aura around his body rushed towards him, turning into true qi at the meridians, converging towards the dantian in his body. And it is the dantian that feels the most changes. The fiery liquid as a whole was slowly growing, exuding infinite power.

While feeling everything, Lu Ping continued to operate the true qi in his body according to the Ben Lei Heart Method. When the liquid state in the dantian reaches a certain level, the liquid begins to flow along the meridians. After the fiery red liquid flowed, many impurities in the meridians were squeezed out of the body, and the meridians gradually became wider and tougher. With the passage of time, the fiery red liquid ran along the meridians for a great week, and the meridians of Lu Ping's whole body were refined.

When the sun went down, Lu Ping opened his eyes. At this time, when I felt the surroundings again, everything became much clearer than before, and the world seemed to be washed by clear water in Lu Ping's senses. Lu calmly experienced, and for a moment immersed in it as if he was fascinated.

After a long time, Lu Ping raised his right fist and slowly, at a forty-five degree angle, he struck forward and upward. At the same time, Lu Ping read softly in his mouth: "•••••• fist, the air moves, it explodes, the sky can collapse, and the earth can crack ••••••." With Lu Ping's words, wherever the fist went, several rays of fiery red qi leaked out of Lu Ping's fist and into the air. The continuous impact went into the air, and the sound of explosions in the air was 'boom, boom'. And the shock wave shot out in the direction of the fist for a range of more than ten meters. The right fist is knocked down, and the left fist is raised again. Lu Ping's slow, rhythmic movements were repeated. Shock waves were constantly rising in the air, and the sound of roaring was endless. From a distance, the air fluctuations brought by the shock wave resemble cracks in the air. These cracks began in Lu Ping's fist and expanded to a dozen meters long and ended.

Dozens of punches were thrown, and Lu Ping finally felt that the supply of fiery red liquid in his body was not enough. Putting down his fist, Lu Ping couldn't suppress the joy in his heart: "The eighth fist, the Collapse of the Sky Fist." Fiery red liquid. Haha, the realm of convergence. Lu Ping couldn't help but talk to himself. For more than half a year, penance. Lu Ping's harvest is really not small.

The two realms of cultivation are gathering and knotting. The sign of the two realms is the change in the form of true qi in the body. The realm of convergence is when the energy in the body changes from gaseous true qi to liquid energy. At this time, the form of energy is visible liquid energy, and the liquid energy flowing in the meridians is more powerful when used. The most obvious change is that once you reach the realm of converging currents, when you use your true qi to penetrate out of your body, you will see the appearance of colored energy true qi.

At this time, Lu Ping's fist hit the fiery red true qi. The color of the true qi is determined by the cultivator's practice, and the most basic attributes are metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, which correspond to the colors of the earth's true qi as gold, green, blue, red, and yellow. Of course, the attributes of cultivators' cultivation methods are uncertain, and some of them have multiple attributes, and the color of the true qi cultivated by such methods is also more complicated. There are even people who practice a variety of mental methods, and the mixing of several attributes of mental methods can produce many kinds of colors. The Danxia Mind Method cultivated by Lu Ping is a pure wood attribute Mind Method, while the Ben Thunder Heart Method is a Fire Attribute Mind Method. In the process of Lu Ping's cultivation, he had actually regarded the Ben Lei Mental Method as the main mental method of cultivation, while the Danxia Mental Method was in an auxiliary position. This results in the production of a fiery red fluid in his body.

At the same time that Lu Ping reached the realm of gathering streams, his Danxia Mind Method was also cultivated to the sixth layer. Lu Ping was busy cultivating his body and the Thunder Mind Method every day, but he didn't care much about this Danxia Heart Method. Lonely Crane Sword Technique and Yang Yuan Boxing, Lu Ping only spends a small amount of time practicing every day. After all, compared to these two sets of kung fu and the Benlei boxing method, the power is too far behind. Lu Ping didn't do much to cultivate.

On this day, it was already the sixteenth day of the eighth month from Lu Ping to the Punishment Peak. Lu Ping was carrying a boulder to cultivate his body as usual. At this time, a Daoist who was about forty years old came to the peak of Punishment Peak. This person is none other than Lu Ping's master Jiang Yu. Since bringing Lu Ping to Punishment Peak, Jiang Yu has come to see his ninth apprentice for the second time. The first time was just to teach Lu Ping the Danxia Heart Method, the Lonely Crane Sword Technique and the Yang Yuan Fist. And this time, Jiang Yu couldn't help but shake his head slightly as he looked at Lu Ping carrying the boulder from afar.

When Jiang Yu reached the top of the mountain, Lu Ping had already sensed that someone was coming. So, carrying the boulder and running towards Jiang Yu. Before getting close, seeing that it was his master, Lu Ping put down the hundred-pound boulder and kowtowed to Jiang Yuyi: "The master is here, and the disciple Lu Ping will see you." ”

Jiang Yu nodded slightly: "Lu Ping, the master taught you the heart method, and also taught you the sword technique and fist technique." Why don't you hurry up and practice. But he was carrying stones and practicing brute force. This is not compatible with my Danxia Mental Method. DID YOU KNOW. ”

Lu Ping was stunned when he heard this: "Hehe, master, the disciple thinks that people who practice martial arts." Qi training is important, but physical training is also indispensable. This daily practice of carrying stones has made the disciples gain a lot!"

Jiang Yu was unhappy when he heard this: "Strong words and reasoning, I Danxia heart method, pay attention to quietness and softness." The knack of swordsmanship and boxing is also more in clever words. You realize it like this, but it's the opposite. Lu Ping, show the master the lonely swordsmanship you practiced. ”

Lu Ping didn't make much excuse when he heard this, and said in response: "Yes, the disciple will call the master to show it." ”

Lu Ping took out a wooden sword. Hit the lonely eagle sword technique with one move. Lonely Crane swordsmanship, a total of twenty-four moves. The swordsmanship is light and arrogant, and every move and style is endlessly varied, which contains many clever hidden moves. The whole swordsmanship has a sense of being out of the world. Lu Ping didn't study this set of swordsmanship deeply enough, and just practiced according to the sword moves every day, without much comprehension. After this demonstration, although there are sword moves, they are a little sluggish, but each sword is full of strength and has a certain amount of power.

Jiang Yu couldn't help but shake his head vigorously when he watched Lu Ping's demonstration, and when Lu Ping finished fighting, Jiang Yu said: "It's not right at all, I can't think of it when I have more strength." After speaking, Jiang Yu pulled out the sword in his hand and went through the twenty-four moves of the Lone Crane Sword Technique. But under Jiang Yu's hands, the bronze sword was like a wild goose, dancing in the air, sometimes low, sometimes flying high, constantly changing in the air. The sword moves are not only beautiful, but also contain a sense of arrogance.

Lu Ping carefully watched the changes in the sword moves, and sighed in his heart for a while. It's just that for this lonely swordsmanship, Lu Ping only practiced alone on weekdays, and never thought that it would have such a sword intent, and there was no one to guide him, but he was just familiar with the moves after practicing for most of the year. At this time, when I saw Jiang Yu coming, I knew a lot about this lonely swordsmanship in my heart.

Jiang Yu finished his swordsmanship and didn't wait for Lu Ping to react. Then he said: "Lu Ping, your entry time is relatively short, and this cultivation journey must go in the right direction, so as to have twice the result with half the effort." The master is busy with sect affairs on weekdays, so he won't give you too much guidance, and everything depends on your own diligent cultivation. Now your senior brother Guan Xue and your fourth senior brother Xu Jiagu have both entered the realm of convergence. If you get down this punishment peak, ask them more for advice! The master went up the mountain this time to inform you of something. The ranking tournament for my Danxia Sect disciples will be held in two months. At that time, all six generations of disciples of my sect will be eligible to participate in the competition. You are no exception. When the time comes, I will ask Chen Xun to inform you to come down the mountain. I have many disciples in Yangyuan Sect, and the master also hopes that you can achieve good results in the competition and not embarrass the master. The master is here this time, and he will teach you another set of swordsmanship. I hope you will practice diligently. After speaking, Jiang Yu raised the sword in his hand again.

"This set of swordsmanship is called the 'Hengduan Sword Technique', and it is a swordsmanship unique to my Punishment Peak. This sword technique is based on Danxia's heart method, which requires ruthlessness and might, and the sword movement needs to be infused with strength. Move your sword in the way you just demonstrated the Lonely Crane Sword Technique, which is the most appropriate ••••••." Jiang Yu explained while demonstrating the moves. Lu Ping carefully memorized the moves and formulas.

After Jiang Yu finished speaking, he didn't care whether Lu Ping understood it all and remembered it. Instead, he took out a booklet and threw it to Lu Ping, and said: "The swordsmanship has been explained to you, if you don't understand or remember, understand this sword book yourself! The master was busy with affairs, so he went down the mountain." As soon as he turned around after speaking, this Jiang Yu went down the mountain.

Lu Ping took the sword book and watched Jiang Yu leave. Thinking back to Jiang Yu's demonstration of the 'Heng Duan Sword Technique', he couldn't help but pull out the wooden sword and wave it. I have to say that this 'Heng Duan Sword Technique' is indeed more suitable for Lu Ping's cultivation. After only a few times of practice, Lu Ping's 'Heng Duan Sword Technique' seemed to look the same.

Jiang Yunai is in charge of the rewards and punishments of the entire Yangyuan Sect disciples, and there are many affairs on weekdays. The teaching of several of his disciples took less time. This is especially true for Lu Ping. Lu Ping joined the Punishment Peak, and was punished and lived alone at the Punishment Peak. More than half a year has passed, and this Jiang Yu has been alone with Lu Ping twice. Regarding Lu Ping's cultivation, although Jiang Yu knew that Lu Ping had relied on himself to complete the cultivation of the first three layers of Danxia Mind Method in more than two years, he had shown extraordinary talent. But he would never have imagined that in just over half a year, Lu Ping would reach the realm of convergence flow. Jiang Yu cultivated all his life, reached the realm of gathering currents at the age of 30, and after more than ten years of cultivation, he cultivated to the seventh layer of the Danxia Heart Method. How could he have thought that his apprentice had cultivated to the Gathering Stream Realm in less than four years.

It is still a daily penance, and Lu Ping's cultivation has not changed too much because of Jiang Yu's guidance. It's just that Lu Ping spends more time practicing swords every day. As for the practice of the ninth fist of Ben Thunder Fist and Storm Thunder Fist, Lu Ping still regarded it as his main kung fu practice.
