Chapter 8: Shadowless
A few days passed, and Zhou Qing did not return to Zhou's house, but lived in the mountains where his father used to practice martial arts.
Although this thatched hut is small, it is much more reassuring than living in the backyard of the Zhou Mansion.
Xue Baisheng stood on top of the wooden stake, practicing the martial arts he had obtained from Zhou Qing alone.
In just a few days, Zhou Qing had already taught all the martial arts in his memory to Xue Baisheng. Xue Baisheng naturally fulfilled his promise and gave Zhou Qing the martial arts handed down by his family without reservation.
"It's strange, the moves this kid passed on to me don't look fake. However, no matter how much I cultivated, it was difficult for the true qi in my body to drive according to my thoughts, and even between my muscles and bones, there were bursts of soreness.
Isn't it, that kid Zhou Qing still has reservations about me?"
Xue Baisheng thought for a while, and then walked towards Zhou Qing, who was practicing martial arts behind him.
"My Xue family has no shadow, not only because of the ingenuity of the body, but also because of the control of power.
If you kid continue to practice like this, you can't master it thoroughly. If it weren't for the internal support, I'm afraid your body would have something wrong sooner or later. ”
When Zhou Qing heard this, he immediately stopped.
"Then how should I cultivate?"
Xue Baisheng saw that Zhou Qing was asking for something, so he immediately returned to his cold appearance.
"I think I can be regarded as a first-class master in the entire Tianping County, and when I cultivated this shadowless technique, it took me no less than eight years to achieve a slight success.
Now, 14 years have passed, and I have finally mastered sixty percent.
With such qualifications, if you want to quickly have the foundation to master the Shadowless Technique, you have to suffer a little more. ”
"Say, I'm not afraid of hardship!"
Zhou Qing said with a firm gaze.
"I can hone you, but there are too many places in the martial arts you passed on to me that are elusive. These various moves seem to be no problem, but if they are cultivated, they make people feel full of loopholes.
Tell me how you've been practicing over the years. ”
"This ......"
Zhou Qing had a more puzzled look on his face, he actually cultivated according to his father and grandfather, and he didn't hide it from Xue Baisheng.
"I've already told you all the methods of my cultivation. It's just that from the time I started practicing, I felt very uncomfortable in my body, and I remember one day, my grandfather said that he wouldn't let me continue to cultivate, so he clicked on my acupoints.
Since that time, I have been secretly cultivating, and I no longer feel so painful. Over time, I got used to it.
Practicing according to this set of martial arts, although it didn't make me much progress in martial arts, it also made me physically much stronger than my peers. ”
Xue Baisheng held his chin with his hand, after all, he was also an old Jianghu, whether Zhou Qing was lying or not, Xue Baisheng could tell at a glance.
"Could it be that Zhou Kun's martial arts are too mysterious, even with my qualifications, it is difficult to master it in a very short time?"
Xue Baisheng lowered his head and thought for a moment, and then said to Zhou Qing again.
"Come with me. ”
Zhou Qing nodded, and then followed Xue Baisheng towards the depths of the mountains. They walked along a river, over two hills, and although they did not see anything in front of them, they could already hear the sound of the rushing water, and behind the hill there must have been a small waterfall.
"This is it......"
Xue Baisheng paced down with his hands in his hands, and fell to the ground as lightly as a feather among the steep rocks
"The water underneath the waterfall is fast, the rocks are extremely slippery, and there is the impact of the river from the upper reaches. Even for those who have achieved light achievements, it is extremely difficult to walk under the waterfall calmly.
I want you, within five days, to be able to stand under the waterfall and not be swept away by the current.
Within 10 days, you can walk through this 15-zhang wide waterfall without any deviation.
If you comprehend the Shadowless Trick fast enough, you may be able to walk back and forth under the waterfall in less than ten breaths in less than a month.
Look at it, I'll show you a show first!"
Xue Baisheng flicked his sleeves lightly, tiptoed a little, and suddenly turned into a silver light that swept quickly in front of Zhou Qing's eyes, and the wind moved with people!
I saw the water splashing on the stones under the waterfall, and Xue Baisheng's clothes did not touch a drop of water, so he wore it to the other end of the waterfall.
In the process, he only took less than three breaths!
"Here, you can try it with the Shadowless Technique. Remember, there is no trace of qi, there is no shadow, there is no shadow, there is no form, there is no strength, there is no boundless......"
Xue Baisheng shouted at Zhou Qing, Zhou Qing's heart was pounding, looking at the turbulent river, he was still a little afraid.
But recalling the expressions of Zhou Hong's father and son that day, he immediately felt that this fear was nothing.
"Shadowless and formless, gathering energy and dispersing strength, the universe is boundless!"
Zhou Qing closed his eyes and silently recited the mantra in his heart, he gradually mobilized the internal force in his body, and then the essence suddenly emerged.
Bang!
Zhou Qing jumped out in an instant, and his foot hit the rock under the waterfall. The rock was slippery, and Zhou Qing almost slipped down. But fortunately, Zhou Qing transferred the so-called "qi" in his body to his toes, and the force of the impact of his toes spread out, his body was a lot more stable.
"Hmm!"
When Xue Baisheng saw this scene, his expression began to become a lot more serious.
However, this only lasted less than half a breath, and as the water kept hitting Zhou Qing's body, Zhou Qing's body immediately began to shake again.
Thump!
A dark shadow fell from the waterhole, and Xue Baisheng laughed.
"It seems that I still really think highly of you, and you still can't learn martial arts.
Stinky boy, your Zhou family is not small. Especially the Zong family also has a certain amount of power in the court, and they don't want to leave any leverage for others if they don't kill you.
I advise you to leave this Taiping County honestly. With your current ability, you can actually find a place to survive on your own. ”
Zhou Qing swam up from the river in embarrassment, shook his wet hair, and then walked back to his previous position.
"If I go elsewhere, will the Zhou family let me go? They haven't gotten my grandfather's secrets, so sooner or later they will still come to me!"
Zhou Qing clenched his fists, and with a brush, he rushed forward again.
However, the result was not difficult to predict, and the sound of falling water was heard again, Xue Baisheng shook his head, and decided to return to the hut and concentrate on studying the martial arts that Zhou Kun left to Zhou Qing.
"But Nian Zhou Kun is one of the strongest people in the entire Tianyun Kingdom, how did he get to his grandson, and his martial arts talent is so poor?"
Xue Baisheng continued to walk forward, taking three, four, and five steps......
Suddenly, he stopped abruptly.
Because he had passed nearly seven or eight steps, he didn't hear the sound of falling water behind him.
When he turned around, he actually saw Zhou Qing cautiously walking to the position between the waterfalls!
Zhou Qing's expression still looked a little nervous, and the water washed over his body, making him shake his legs from time to time.
But in the end, Zhou Qing stabilized himself. He slowly took up his steps, and his breathing gradually became more regular.
Xue Baisheng's eyes widened, he couldn't have imagined that Zhou Qing would not be swept away by the current in such a short period of time.
It's at least a few days faster than him to start cultivating this process!
"This kid must have learned to use internal force, otherwise he would definitely not be able to be so stable!"
After staying for a while, Xue Baisheng still left the vicinity of the waterfall. The master leads the way in, and the cultivation depends on the individual. He just came for Zhou Qing's martial arts, and he didn't have much mind to guide Zhou Qing's cultivation. And Xue Baisheng also knew that Zhou Qing had long been hostile to him this time, and he knew that he was just peeking at Zhou Qing's secrets.
Zhou Qing, who had completely precipitated, seemed to have entered a wonderful realm, and every time he breathed, he could feel every inch of skin and muscles in his body moving with it.
This is a person who learns martial arts, and he will enter a state where only when he begins to initially grasp the true meaning of martial arts, can he appreciate the subtleties that martial arts bring to himself.
When Zhou Qing was still cultivating, the Zhou family had already exploded.
Master Zhou sat in the lobby with a cold face, Zhou Tong lowered his head, limped, and walked in from outside the lobby with a slightly heavy look.
"It is said that Zhou Hong is not bad in Yuntianmen, but there are many senior brothers who value him very much. ”
Master Zhou picked up the teacup and drank a sip of hot tea slowly.
"It's not for your blessing, big brother, that you deceived Zhou Qing's Yuntian Order, which gave me Zhou Hong a chance to get ahead. ”
Zhou Tong immediately replied in a low voice.
"This is natural, that thing is really violent on Zhou Qing, since your father and son have asked for something, I naturally want to give you some help. ”
Master Zhou smiled slightly, then beckoned to Zhou Tong and motioned for Zhou Tong to sit down.
"It's still the eldest brother who is considerate and knows that my leg is not good yet. ”
Zhou Tong saw Master Zhou's smile and gestures, and the heavy color on his face immediately subsided.
Crash!
Master Zhou suddenly rioted, and threw the teacup on the ground with one hand, and half a cup of hot tea broke with the cup, and there were water stains everywhere that splashed.
"Did I make you sit down? I told you to kneel!"
Master Zhou's face was full of anger, and when the subordinates guarding the door saw this, they knew that they should not stay here, so they immediately hurriedly retreated.
"Big brother, I'm ...... I was wrong, I also thought that by digging the tomb of the third master, I could find the secret, but who knew that Zhou Qing's kid would be able to get up after being so seriously injured. ”
Zhou Tong immediately knelt on the ground, his face full of fear.
At this time, Master Zhou seemed to have become another person, he picked up the fruit plate on the table with one hand, and then walked towards Zhou Tong.
"Wrong, the secret left by the third master is the basis for my Zhou family to get out of Taiping County in the future. You are wrong, but you will ruin the hope of our entire Zhou family!
If I don't let you remember it for a long time today, I think you will always verbally know that you are wrong!"
Bang!
Master Zhou stepped on Zhou Tong's body, and pinched the wood-grain fruit plate with both hands and beat Zhou Tong violently.
And Zhou Yi, who was hiding behind the lobby, was now watching this scene, and the corners of his mouth raised a slight arc.
