Zhou Tian, the emperor of the Xurui Dynasty, also paid attention to this matter, and specially sent Zhou to the imperial study to understand the situation.

Zhou Chi, the head of the Imperial Martial Academy, hesitated when he saw the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that with the strength that Shi Dewa is currently showing, it is terrifying, and the young talents of our Xurui Dynasty are unmatched......

Emperor Zhou Tian said: "The four princes Zhou Huan can't do it?"

Zhou Chi said: "Your Majesty! The four princes are geniuses that have not been met in a century, of course, it is another matter, the force of the four princes and Shi Dewa are in the middle of each other...... The minister is worried about this Shi Dewa......"

Emperor Zhou Tian said: "Are you worried that Shi Dewa will become a climate in the future, and it will be difficult for my Xurui Dynasty to subdue him?"

Zhou Chi hurriedly said: "Weichen doesn't dare! My Xurui Dynasty dominates the world and is omnipotent!"

Emperor Zhou Tian said: "Yes! A mere Shidewa is like an ant to my Xurui Dynasty, but what you reminded is also reasonable. Shi Dewa's martial arts talent is extremely rare, if he gets the true inheritance of the top martial arts of my Xurui Dynasty, he is indeed expected to become the top martial artist of my Xurui Dynasty in the future. If it can be used by me, it will be a great help for my Xurui Dynasty to dominate the entire continent. Wing Brother, you can accept Shi Dewa as an apprentice! In addition to our Zhou family's Thirty-six Path Soul Breaking Spear, the ultimate exercise of internal strength, the Dafa of Pulse Strengthening and Strengthening Muscles, and the secret method of light gong, you can teach him the rest of the exercises. Huan'er's martial arts are also taught by you for the time being, and I have laid a good foundation for him. ”

After Zhou Chi retreated, Feng Yi, one of the seven military commanders of the Xurui Dynasty, walked out of another room in the imperial study.

Emperor Zhou Tian looked at Feng Yi, the king of Nanling, who was frowning, and said, "Brother Yi, what do you think of Shi Dewa?"

Nanling King Feng Yi's brows tightened a little and said, "Brother Zhou, why does Shi Dewa make me feel uneasy?"

Before the establishment of the Xurui Dynasty, several major forces in the Central Plains had been fighting for hegemony for many years, and when the Zhou family forces had the upper hand and had a situation of unifying the Central Plains, the Zhou family's most relied on ally forces suddenly rebelled and united all the hostile forces to eliminate the Zhou family's forces. At that time, although the Zhou family had the strength to break through the encirclement, it would also suffer heavy losses, and the hope of chasing the Central Plains again would become very slim.

At that time, the Feng family had more than 300,000 mercenaries, and they had long been entrenched in the edge of the southern jungle mountains, and they were a powerful force that the Central Plains forces of previous dynasties did not want to provoke. The Zhou family took a risk and sent people to contact the Feng family's forces, and the Feng family's forces, who had not been involved in the Central Plains for a long time, actually aided the Zhou family, and finally the Zhou family's forces unified the Central Plains and established the Xurui Dynasty. When the dynasty was established, the Zhou family had made concessions to the dynasty, but the Feng family categorically refused, and since then, the Zhou family and the Feng family have formed a friendship of life and death.

The founding emperor of the Xurui Dynasty divided more than ten counties adjacent to the Feng family into permanent territories to the Feng family, and issued a special decree: the Xurui Dynasty never had a knife to kill the Feng family, and the hereditary Nanling King of the Feng family could not go up to the king or see the ministers. The emperor also built a Nanling palace for the Feng family in the capital, which was larger than all the royal princes' mansions.

Since the establishment of the Xurui Dynasty, the only one who dares to call the emperor a brother and brother in person is the hereditary king of Nanling - the king of Nanling does not do the courtesy of the monarch and the courtiers is the rule set by the founding emperor, and Zhou Tian does not dare to break it.

Emperor Zhou Tian saw that King Nanling was still suspicious of Shi Dewa, so he asked: "Brother Yi, do you think that this mere Shi Dewa can still make waves?"

"Shi Dewa is very talented, his father's Dewa family where the Great Magician is located and the Party family where the Great Ballad Master is located have led the clan to endure on Yong'an Island for hundreds of years, these are the dragons among the people, Brother Zhou can't be taken lightly!" Feng Yiwei, the king of Nanling, sighed and said.

Emperor Zhou Tian said: "That is natural, but now that our dynasty has shown a trend of decay, the iron cavalry of the Prairie King is our greatest threat." There are also the millions of mercenaries of the Mansio Empire rising in the west of our continent, and it is said that they have a terrifying ace army known as the Iron Cavalry of the Steel Fortress. Armed to the teeth, heavy steel armor that could not be broken, this is what worries me day and night. ”

Nanling King Feng Yi's tightly knit brows relaxed, and he said with a hint of excitement: "Brother Zhou! I brought you great news from the forging camp this time, and before I could say anything, Zhou Chi came in. ”

Emperor Zhou Tian stood up and said with some emotion: "Ah——, there is a result! For two months, I have been looking forward to your news all day and night! ”

Feng Yi, the king of Nanling, said: "A year and a half ago, my nephew Feng Ta unexpectedly got the Cangqi Divine Sword from Yong'an Island, which easily cut through the best iron armor of our dynasty, I was not convinced, and showed my treasure knife that cut gold and jade, but my knife was cut out of a small hole - my knife was fed with the blood of countless warriors, and was once named the first knife of the Xurui Dynasty by Brother Zhou! After that, I took 10,000 taels of gold to Yong'an Island, but I couldn't exchange it for a Cangqi Divine Knife. After coming back, in order to make good friends with Yong'an Island, Brother Zhou took Shi Dewa to the Imperial Martial Arts Academy to practice, and sure enough, Yong'an Island gave the dynasty a Cangqi Divine Sword, or the Emperor's Shengming! This time, I took Shi Dewa to offer the Cangqi Divine Knife by secret order, and went to the forging camp to find the great forging master Zhang Leng to crack the secret of the knife. The sharpness of the sword on a small island was superior to that of the first treasure sword on the mainland, which was famous for its force, and the secret turned out to be that there was a new metal component in this knife that had not been seen in our dynasty or even in the entire continent. Zhang Leng added the new metal separated from the knife into our alloy steel according to the proportion of the original knife, and then forged a knife according to our casting process. The new knife forged by Zhang Leng slashed against the Cangqi Divine Knife given to me by Brother Zhou, and as a result, the Cangqi Divine Knife was cut out of a small gap, which shows that the forging technology level of the knife on Yongan Island and the hardness of the alloy steel outside the new metal are not as good as our Xurui Dynasty, and all the secrets are only in that new metal. ”

Emperor Zhou Tian stood up, his eyes shining, and said loudly: "As long as we can get more of this new metal from Yong'an Island, we can arm a special forces that are invincible and indestructible." The Iron Cavalry of the Prairie King and the Iron Cavalry of the Steel Fortress of the Mansio Empire! How to be afraid! My Xurui Dynasty will surely regain its former majesty and dominate the entire continent!"

......

Zhou Chi returned to the martial arts academy from the palace and officially accepted Shi Dewa as a personal disciple, and began to teach Shi Dewa the superior martial arts of the Zhou family.

In Zhou Tian's exclusive martial arts room, Shi Dewa was playing a set of the Zhou family's most powerful Tiger Killing Fist.

The four princes Zhou Huan and Zhou Chi, who were watching from the side, couldn't stop nodding their heads in praise.

In just two months, there are almost no flaws in connecting the many moves of this difficult superior fist technique, coupled with Shi Dewa's natural domineering strength, the power of Shi Dewa's set of Tiger Killing Fist will make him fearful even in the face of a famous martial artist whose force value has reached Wuzun.

Zhou Chi saw Shi Dewa accept the move, and couldn't help but cheer: "Okay——! Shi Dewa!"

The fourth prince, Zhou Huan, took Shi Dewa's hand and said, "A few years ago, I learned this set of Tiger Killing Fist, but I am not as powerful as you now!"

Shi Dewa hurriedly withdrew his hand and saluted to the fourth prince Zhou Huan and said: "The fourth prince really praised me too much, the fourth prince's ability to use force, how can I compare!"

Zhou Chi grinned and said, "You two are both martial arts wizards, and I will teach you to practice internal skills from today." The martial arts students of our martial arts academy can only learn foreign skills and mounted archery kung fu in the martial arts academy, which are the subjects for taking the military attaché examination in the future. Internal strength is divided into self-cultivation and internal strength of force two kinds, the former kind of internal strength does not need the foundation regardless of age can be practiced at any time, but it does not have the effect of fighting with others, and the practice of force qigong needs to have more than ten years of external strength foundation, after practice, can instantly mobilize the essence of the whole body, internal and external integration of a sharp point, with super round power. Although you have practiced external skills for about ten years, your ability is enough to reach the level of ordinary people who have practiced external skills for nearly 20 years, and it is time to practice internal skills. The basis of internal strength is to change the inherent chest breathing method to abdominal breathing, that is, to take the "lower dantian" as the origin of breathing, and the root of practicing internal strength is to train the mind. ”

A few days later, Shi Dewa and the Fourth Prince Zhou Huan practiced the dantian qi according to the method of Professor Zhou Chi, who was in charge of the Imperial Martial Academy.

Zhou Chi, the head of the Imperial Martial Academy, said: "Ordinary people need to go through a month or more of mental training in the mind of the mind to guard the dantian before they can have a sense of stability in the mind, and you can practice it in a few days. To cultivate the sense of qi is to find a water source, to form an internal force river on the land of the body, but to dig the rocks and dig the thick soil, let the water flow in drop by drop, gather the water droplets to form a stream, and then form a big river, which will take years, ten years, or twenty years. ”

Zhou Chi, the head of the Imperial Martial Academy, in the following time, began to teach the four princes Zhou Huan and Shi Dewa to enhance their sense of qi, while teaching them the exercises to nourish vitality.

When the time for nourishing vitality has arrived, the internal qi will naturally be filled, and the next step will be the stage of practicing qi and practicing qi.

Nourish qi without leaving nature, and practice qi without leaving life. If you want to cultivate qi and cultivate life, you must not move your mind, one thought will give birth to ten thousand fires, and ten thousand fate will be quiet. The reason why monks are quick to do gong is that before practicing qigong, they first practice kung fu with a calm mind like water.

The exercises for practicing qi are not quite the same in different sects, and the internal exercises of the Zhou family are the best of the superior exercises.

Zhou Chi first taught Shi Dewa and the Four Princes Zhou Huan to recognize the meridian routes of qi and blood walking, and then taught them the method of transporting dantian qi to walk on different routes: Qi starts from the lower dantian, and finally returns to the lower dantian......

In the process of practicing qi, the mind is the most difficult to control, so without the teaching of the master, the martial artist cannot cultivate the internal strength of the martial arts, otherwise the separation of the mind and the qi will get out of control, and it will go mad and cause evil consequences.

Shi Dewa and the Fourth Prince Zhou Huan were trained by Zhou Chi, a great expert in internal strength, and in less than half a year, Shi Dewa and the Fourth Prince Zhou Huan were able to stably move around their bodies.

Zhou Chi, the head of the Imperial Martial Academy, said to the two at this time: "Your internal strength is still in the initial stage, and your internal strength is like external strength, and you need to practice it for decades and day out to continue to refine or maintain a certain state. What you have to practice next is to integrate the internal and external strength, and finally achieve the effect of integrating the mind and energy. ”

After Zhou Chi finished speaking, he walked to the plum blossom stake in the room, squatted down and raised his hand to hit a wooden stake with the thickness of the bottom of the bottle, this half-meter-high hard wooden stake was beaten to the side, and it did not break or fall to the ground. Zhou Chi came to another identical stake, took a deep breath, and struck the stake with his palm, which broke off and slid out a few meters on the ground.

Zhou Chi turned around and said: "I used the power of external strength to hit in the first palm, and in the second palm, I used the fusion power of internal and external strength that I have practiced for more than 20 years to strike. This is the real effect of the fusion of will, qi and power into one, and the fusion of internal and external strength. ”

The fourth prince, Zhou Huan, said excitedly: "Uncle, when will I be able to practice this kind of powerful round power penetrating power?"

Zhou Chi said: "Your current external power is still a few years away, and the internal strength is a few years away, and there is still time for fusion, the better the fusion, the faster the work." ”
