"What? Traditional hard skills have been eliminated by modern secret martial arts......

After school in the afternoon, Lei Meng came to the martial arts base for the first time, and after applying to the senior brother Song Changyi to select hard skills, he got this unexpected answer.

"Actually, your future theoretical textbooks will specifically talk about this ......" Song Changyi patiently explained, "The decline and innovation of hard skills is also an important section on the specific differences between secret martial arts and ancient martial arts......

No matter what the discipline, practice is always one beat slower than theory, or even several beats slower, and martial arts is no exception.

After the first few days of martial arts literacy, the new round of apprentices' theoretical classes changed from once a day to once a day, and from time to time once in the future, they will also become one-on-one teaching according to their individual cultivation process and direction.

For the new round of apprentices, the first one to come to ask for advice was Raymond, Song Changyi was actually mentally prepared, and after glancing at the slender glass scratches on the back of Raymond's hand, he even guessed the causes and consequences of his hard work.

"Generally, most of the ancient martial arts are practiced from day after day to resist blows, so as to increase the density and strength of some cells in the skin, muscles, bones and other tissues, and occasionally apply some special drugs on the body surface to repair body damage, enhance keratinization on the body surface, and can resist the attack of the blade to a certain extent......"

"But modern biology shows that human skin cells are renewed every month or so...... That is to say, no matter how hard you work in your anti-strike training and how gratifying the results are, your body's metabolism will automatically help you to disperse your work once every month until you die. ”

"In this way, the harder you practice, the more severe the damage to the skin, the faster the corresponding skin metabolism, and the shorter the cycle of this dispersal work!"

"On the other hand, once you stop training, the accumulated resistance will quickly fade away within a month or two as the skin cells metabolize. ”

"Even if they continue to practice hard every day, most of the hard-working ancient martial artists, when their essence is exhausted after the age of forty, they will inevitably regress in their skills, be riddled with injuries and diseases, and rarely live a long life. ”

A thoughtful look flashed in Raymond's eyes, knowing that the senior brother did mean that the martial arts hall did have some secrets of ancient martial arts hard skills, and they also had certain effects after cultivation, but he did not encourage himself to waste a lot of time on this kind of foolish and suicidal hard skills.

"It shouldn't be that all ancient martial arts are so superficial, right?"

"Superficial?" Song Changyi smiled, "That's a very appropriate word...... Yes, there is indeed no lack of clever hard skills in ancient martial arts, but all of them are superior exercises that are both internal and external. ”

"In other words, the most brilliant ancient martial arts hard gong is actually a kind of qigong, both internal and external cultivation and emphasis on hard defense qigong, among which the best are the boy King Kong of the Golden Seal Temple, the Henglian Taibao of the Imperial Guard Banzhi, and the pure yang true body of the Hongyang Sect ......"

"Of course, the most famous is the undefeated golden body of the Jin family, where the number one master in the Eastern Continent is located, which has been rampant in the martial arts for hundreds of years without encountering a single defeat, which can be called an insurmountable peak in the body refining world!"

Lei Meng's eyes moved, and he noticed that a trace of strangeness inadvertently flashed on Song Changyi's face when he mentioned the "Undefeated Golden Body", but he couldn't guess the meaning behind this strangeness because of his limited knowledge.

I saw Song Changyi continue to say lightly: "However, no matter what kind of mastery is above, in fact, it is based on qigong to control hard skills, and the body refining methods of modern secret martial arts are also based on this.

"Understood!" Raymond smiled bitterly, "I'd better concentrate on cultivating Chiyang True Qi first......

Unexpectedly, Song Changyi's tone changed: "No, no, no...... The hall master specially explained that as long as you want to learn, you can obtain any basic exercises of this sect, which is a special favor that you Ling Rui has never obtained!"

Raymond couldn't help but be moved, and the thought in his mind turned sharply, he only got into trouble last night and asked the martial arts hall to wipe his ass, and today not only was he not warned, but he was given a special favor...... Well, "deliberately"?

I see!

Lei Meng's expression was solemn: "The kindness of the hall owner, the disciple will keep it in mind, and he will work hard in the future, strive to do his best for the martial arts hall as soon as possible, and live up to the expectations and cultivation of the hall owner!"

"You, you ......" Song Changyi couldn't cry or laugh, "I don't know, I thought you had rolled around in the bureaucracy of the Eastern Continent, full of officialdom!"

Raymond vowed: "Please wait and see, senior brother, I will do what I say!"

Song Changyi patted him on the shoulder and changed the topic: "Your situation, I roughly understand, [Python Bull Strength] can almost meet your needs!"

"Just like the [Red Yang True Qi] and the [Red Shadow Heart Method], [Python Bull Strength] is the basic part of the high-level body refining technique [Python Bull Dragon Elephant Gong] of this sect. ”

"Your third senior brother Andrew's practice is the [Python Bull Dragon Elephant Skill], if you talk about frontal combat power, except for the master and his old man, no one in this sect dares to say that he can win against your third senior brother......"

"What is still rare is that [Python Bull Strength] and [Chiyang True Qi] are in the same vein, and there is no conflict before the official transition to [Python Bull Dragon Elephant Gong]......"

Raymond's expression was happy, the third senior brother Andrew's tower-like body was obvious to all, and Xiong Xu, who was one size smaller, was also muscular, maybe his image was rougher, but at least he wouldn't give a few pieces of glass to his arms when he killed the enemy.

"I have increased your authority on the Blood Mirror, in addition to the [Python Bull Strength] exercises, there are also some information on fist and foot kung fu...... However, as a senior brother, I need to remind you, don't put the cart before the horse!" Song Changyi finally admonished meaningfully.

"Got it......"

Raymond replied ambiguously, turning to the usual mahogany hall.

There are several rooms next door to the same hall, which are considered to be the common teaching rooms for apprentices, and only the outer disciples who have reached the C level can have a small fine house of their own, and so on.

In front of the hall, Raymond met Feng Yinyu and Sylvia, who were about to leave, and was immediately pleasantly surprised: "Sylvia has also mastered the sense of qi and has begun to practice follow-up exercises?"

"Yes, thanks to your careful explanation last night...... Sylvia pretended to be reserved, for some unspeakable reasons, she didn't want to stay with Raymond for the time being, and immediately said: "You just came out of school to hurry up and cultivate, it's really hard enough! Then we won't delay you...... See you tomorrow!"

"See you tomorrow!" Raymond smiled goodbye, squinting at Sylvia's back, and walked into the hall with his dimples blooming.

When she was separated from Sylvia last night, her breathing and pace were obviously still some distance from her budding sense of anger, how could she master her sense of qi in a day and a half?

And, now she breathes, seems to ...... It still seems to be a little vague and scattered, far less than the full and stocky state I was in before, not like a normal breakthrough!

Sure enough, behind her back......

Raymond shook his head slightly, shook off his distracting thoughts, looked at the ancient mirror with blood flames on the glass wall, and recalled the childish idea of subconsciously taking this blood mirror as a symbol of the cult when he saw it on the first day, and couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.

In fact, the Blood Mirror is the intelligent system of this base, maintaining the normal operation of the entire base, and storing most of the secrets and materials of the martial arts hall.

"Blood Mirror, call up the [Python Bull Strength] exercise and related materials......"

As soon as the words fell, the light and shadow changed, and the images and words of the exercises were projected out one by one, allowing them to be flipped through.

An enlarged illustration of the skin, meridians, muscles, bones, and even bone marrow of one of the arms immediately attracted Raymond's full attention.

"It turns out that ...... [Python Bull Strength] is the basic kung fu that focuses on the muscles and strength of the arms!"

"At first glance, [Python Bull Strength] is much more simple and atmospheric than the Chiyang Nine Styles of the weird and evil sect, and it is very suitable for simple-minded, hard-working people to cultivate, but the subtleties are also cumbersome and complicated...... Typical easy to learn, hard to master!"

"As usual, True Qi and secret medicine stimulate the muscles and skin of both arms in various ways, and work together inside and outside to transform the cell density, distribution structure, and force mode of muscle bundles, as well as the automatic accumulation of the stratum corneum of the skin...... It is really fundamentally much more clever than the fool-style anti-strike training of Guwu hard skills!"

......

It wasn't until more than ten o'clock in the evening that Raymond reluctantly left the martial arts hall and hurried home.

As soon as he stepped into the house, he was pulled back to the room by Sister Yan's ears and pressed against the bed, "What happened to your injury yesterday, and the bullet hole in your arm?"

"Meow woo......" Annabelle came up to grind with Raymond's sideburns very blindly, and slapped Sister Yan far away.

Raymond had already prepared, and he had no fear at the moment: "That bullet hole was misfired when I was practicing in the martial arts hall, but I just scratched a little skin on my left arm, don't believe it! As for the other blood stains on his clothes, they are not mine, they are the by-products of the hero's rescue of beauty...... Anyway, I didn't suffer a loss in the fight!"

Unfinished words in my heart - if I still dare to call a loss if I shed this little blood, those two who were brutally killed by touching their heads will not be able to jump out of the incinerator and reason with me?

"Really......" Sister Yan's voice dragged on, and she rolled up his two sleeves and turned over and over to check it, except for the bullet hole on his left arm, he did not see any other injuries, but he still believed it.

"Really!" Raymond looked honest, and secretly rejoiced in his heart: Fortunately, I was enjoying a quick cure in the martial arts medical area, and I deliberately left a bullet hole that was not cured, and of course nine falsehoods and one truth are more true than true!
