Chapter 190: The Origin of Martial Arts
"Isn't the purpose of martial arts in the world to 'win'? If Collapse Fist can win against the opponent, then Collapse Fist is a good martial art. ”
Huo Changmen said, "Long Jun, do you understand what I said? What I want to teach you today is to break the view of the portal, put away your arrogance and contempt for other martial arts, be humble and embrace all rivers!"
Ji Longjun's expression was awe-inspiring, and he couldn't help but sit more neatly.
Huo Changmen said these truths, neither the vast immortal nor Huang Dunyi had ever said it.
They can be said to be famous, in addition to praising a very small number of top sects, they naturally look down on other unpopular sects of martial arts, and act as righteous people of famous sects.
Ji Longjun didn't feel that there was anything wrong with the Vast Immortal Elder and Huang Dunyi's teaching, nor did he feel that there was any flaw in their character and morality, but listening to Huo Changmen's words, Ji Longjun clearly felt that what Huo Changmen said was more clear and closer to the essence of martial arts.
"Long Jun, I didn't say these words because I didn't have the opportunity to go to these sects to learn martial arts, so I didn't have any sour grapes in my heart. On the contrary, the Huo family has always paid attention to collecting and buying all kinds of martial arts classics on the rivers and lakes, some of which you know, such as "Lost in the Nine Heavens", "Tiangang Thirty-six Road Axe Method", and even the opportunity created by my father thirty years ago, the Five Elements Immortal Method of Bairimen learned by my generation, etc., these are the world's first-class martial arts. ”
"In addition, the Huo family also has a collection of thousands of other martial arts, the Huo family's collection has reached the point where it is difficult to read through, my Xinggu boy can teach according to his aptitude, according to their respective strengths and preferences to learn different martial arts, this is also the root of the Iron Hat City's strong force but still not our Ginkgo Valley opponent. ”
Ji Longjun was secretly frightened: "Thousands of martial arts classics, what a terrifying number of collections! The Huo family has really attached great importance to accumulation and inheritance throughout the ages, if it weren't for the fact that they were in the extreme south of the Qishan Realm, if they were in the middle of the realm, such as Qicheng, or in the main road of communication with other realms, such as Fengyun City, the strength of the Huo family would probably be several times stronger than now!"
Huo Changmen continued: "From these classics, I have summarized some common laws of martial arts in the world. Maybe you've heard it, maybe you haven't heard it, Longjun, let's communicate today. Understanding the true meaning of martial arts from the source will be unimaginably helpful to cultivation!"
Ji Longjun swallowed his saliva: "Brother Huo, understand the true meaning of martial arts from the source......?" No one has ever taught me this, and I ...... Never thought of this layer. ”
Huo Changmen chuckled lightly and said, "Long Jun, if you weren't well-read, you would naturally not have summed up the so-called 'source' of martial arts. Normal people practice martial arts, either starting from boxing, muscles and bones, or starting from meridians and internal strength, or the two are staggered and synchronized. Then I want to ask you, Long Jun, why do you want to practice muscles and bones, and what exactly is 'internal strength'?"
Ji Longjun was stunned: "Brother Huo, this ...... I didn't think about it, I can't say it. ”
"According to my induction, all martial arts in the world can actually be divided into two categories: 'practice muscles and bones on the outside, and practice one breath on the inside'. Whether it is fist technique, leg technique, or swordsmanship, knife technique, hidden weapons, etc., it is all about practicing muscles and bones. The cultivation of muscles and bones is to make oneself strong, and the other is to exercise the proficiency of moves, and pursue the realm of 'rising with your heart and being spontaneous'. ”
Ji Longjun thought about it and couldn't help it
nodded. Huo Changmen continued:
"The so-called internal practice of one breath actually includes all internal strength, mental methods, exercises, qigong, magic methods, and so on. Even the rumored big devils hundreds of years ago, the magic skills they practiced were also for the sake of practicing one breath in the final analysis. ”
Huo Changmen opened his mouth, and a pale air flow shot straight out, and the air flow shot more than two feet away before gradually dispersing and disappearing.
"That's gas. ”
Huo Changmen said, "Qi is an indescribable, but elusive invisible thing. Qi comes from heaven and earth, enters the body from the nose and mouth, and evolves into a part of the human body through the body. ”
This evolutionary process is the root of the different schools of martial arts. Inner Kung Fu has evolved this qi into internal force, which can strengthen the bones and enhance the power of the fists and feet; Taoist Kung Fu has evolved this qi into Wuji True Qi, which can perceive and even manipulate the elements of the five elements; Buddhism's profound internal strength has evolved this qi into Gang Qi, which has the miraculous effect of protecting the body, and so on. ”
Huo Changmen saw that Ji Longjun was listening very seriously, like a sponge desperately absorbing water, absorbing his explanation, and couldn't help but feel relieved and nodded.
Ji Longjun was thinking in his head: "From this point of view, those so-called demon people and the 'demon skills' they are cultivating are actually just cultivation methods and internal force evolution that are very different from the orthodox sects. Whether they are demons or not, whether they want to eradicate them or not, I'm afraid it depends on whether they do evil or not, and whether they harm others or not, right?"
"This is the origin and evolution of qi. 'Qi' is a thing that does not distinguish between dignity and inferiority, everyone breathes between heaven and earth by two nostrils and one mouth, and it is difficult to say which is superior or inferior. However, the difference between the high and low levels of martial arts is distinguished from the way this qi operates, for example, the so-called famous schools often have extremely clever qigong practices, which are also practiced for a year, and the high-level exercises can cultivate stronger internal force, while slightly worse exercises can only cultivate weaker internal force. ”
For example, when two people are fighting, one of them can learn the method of luck freely, while the other person is not smooth, then the winner is decided, and the superiority can be learned. ”
Ji Longjun's heart moved, his family's ancestral book of "One Qi and Two Streams" was a very clever luck exercise.
When you are free, you can cultivate from multiple meridians at the same time, and when you are fighting, you can run two different meridians at the same time to accumulate internal force and achieve a steady stream of effects, which can be described as miraculous.
Huo Changmen continued: "Long Jun, what I just said sounds simple, but in fact, the martial arts in the world are huge, and they can be said to be very different after thousands of years of development, and the wisdom and creation of the predecessors are really breathtaking. ”
"Those extremely powerful martial arts are naturally extraordinary, but those slightly more mediocre martial arts also have their own unique value, and they can't all be discarded. I think you should be able to understand this, after all, an ordinary collapse fist has played an extraordinary realm in your hands. ”
"Long Jun, this month, I will use the experience I have summed up from countless martial arts to teach you to practice the 'Five Elements Alchemy Control Technique', you have to learn to integrate and learn to see everything in the world with the eyes of discovering beauty, which will be of great help to you in the future, and even achieve higher martial arts. ”
Ji Longjun said solemnly: "Brother Huo, I have written it down! I will definitely not have a trace of contempt for any sect martial arts, and I will learn from the advantages of integrating all martial arts like you in the future to improve my skills!"
Huo Changmen nodded first, and then shook his head: "Longjun, it's great that you have this awareness, but remember not to do it deliberately." It's just because what I've learned is too complicated that the Five Elements Immortal Method hasn't broken through to a higher realm for a long time. ”
"You remember: before you become a grandmaster-level master, you must first practice 'specialization', then 'Bo', first 'deep', and then 'wide', and remember not to look at the mountain high. Long Jun, you only need to practice the two kung fu of the Demon Flow Mansion Body Method and the Five Elements Immortal Method of the White Sun Gate, even if the world is big, you can break through!"
Ji Longjun's face was grim, as if he had been told something by Huo Changmen.
In addition to what Huo Changmen said, in fact, he also cultivated other extremely advanced martial arts, but each of them was not profound enough, and each of them was half a bottle of vinegar.
On the contrary, in the past month, he and Huo Changmen and others have been concentrating on practicing the Demon Flow Body Method, so that he has a deeper understanding and a more thorough grasp of the Body Method.
"Brother Huo, what you said is very right. Ji Longjun said silently.
"Hehe, Longjun, after all that, we haven't talked about it yet. Okay, now I'll tell you what's going on with 'Wuji True Qi' and what's going on with Taoist immortal arts. ”
Huo Changmen said with a smile, "Maybe the immortal chief who taught you Taoism also talked about it with you, or maybe he didn't talk about it." After all, the more you talk about the origin things, the easier it is to make people dizzy, and it is not as easy as simple and crude direct cultivation. Since you've only been studying with that person for two years, and you haven't had time to go to Bairimen, there must be a lot of things that aren't very clear, so I'll talk about it again. ”
Ji Longjun said: "Brother Huo, you just have to talk about it, I think what you said has a deep truth, and even a lot of it I have to savor to understand it thoroughly." To learn martial arts, you have to learn it clearly, and what you said is very useful to me!"
"That's good, hehe. Huo Changmen nodded, smiled heartily, and continued to speak:
"Long Jun, if you want to talk about the origin of the immortal arts, you can't help but say the 'Theory of Yin and Yang Five Elements'. But the 'Theory of the Five Elements of Yin and Yang' is too high and unfathomable, and it can't be explained clearly in a short time. I'll say it in a simple vernacular, if you can understand, I won't explain too much if you don't understand, so that the more you listen, the more confused you become. ”
"Hehe, I'll try my best to figure it out, Brother Huo, you just have to talk about it. Ji Longjun said with a smile.
"People generally believe that animals and plants are alive, but metals, earth, rocks, and flowing water are inanimate. Longjun, you know this, right?"
Huo Changmen said, Ji Longjun was stunned for a moment and nodded.
"But in terms of our Five Elements Immortal Law, everything in the world is alive, but the form of life is different. For example, this golden knife. ”
Huo Changmen made a big move, and a golden knife flew into his hand with a "whoosh".
"Before it was born, it was a vein of metal buried deep in a mine, like a follicle in a woman's ovaries, and like a peach pit wrapped in peach flesh and knotted in a tree. ”
Huo Changmen preached solemnly, "One day, this vein was explored, the ore was excavated, and it was transported to the smelter, which is equivalent to the completion of fertilization of the follicle, and the peach ripe and fell to the ground. ”
"When the gold in the ore is smelted and turned into gold bars and gold bricks, it is like a child developing in its mother's womb and a peach pit absorbing water and air in the soil. ”
