Chapter 7: Divine Skills (2)
Time passed quietly, and when Nineteen opened his eyes again, the window was already white. Pen~Fun~ Pavilion www.biquge.info had been practicing all night! Nineteen stretched his waist, and was pleasantly surprised to find that the tiredness and soreness had long disappeared, and the sense of strength filled his body again. Nineteen did not alarm the eunuchs and palace maids who served him, put on light armor, pushed open the window, and quietly dodged away.
The great forest had not yet awakened, and everything seemed peaceful and silent. The dew drenched Nineteen's feet, and the morning breeze gently brushed his cheeks, and the refreshing coolness lifted Nineteen's spirits. Under a tall camphor tree, nineteen pairs of knees bent slightly, calmed their minds, recited the mantra silently, and began to practice qi by standing on the pile. Practicing Qi in the early morning was more intense than at night, and the huge breath of life in the forest also continued to nourish Nineteen's body with the vitality, making his qi and blood more vigorous. Two hours passed quickly, the morning light was faintly shining on the edge of the sky, life in the forest began to wake up, everything was lively again, and it was a new day.
Nineteen opened his eyes, his body still motionless, quietly waiting for the arrival of the sniper. After a while, the figure of a sniper appeared in the distance, he did not show off his ghostly figure today, but did not hurry, shook three times, and walked over very leisurely. However, when he saw the nineteen standing in the distance waiting for him, he was not only surprised, but his small eyes showed a glint of joy, and there was rarely a trace of admiration on his face. He shouted from afar:
"Good boy, come before me! Yes, yes!"
After speaking, he puffed up his mouth and whistled gently, and the whistle was very penetrating, echoing far away in the forest. After a long time, Xiao Jin, who heard the whistle, poked his head out of the bushes, and then jumped out alive, and instead of running to the sniper, he jumped into Nineteen's arms affectionately, scratching his ears and cheeks, and screaming with a "squeak".
The sniper man coughed lightly, his face returned to seriousness, and said to Nineteen and Xiaojin:
"This training should normally be practiced for six hours a day, but considering that Nineteen has not yet adapted to it, let's continue to practice for four hours today!"
Nineteen shook his head and said calmly: "Uncle Shi, train at a normal training speed, just practice for six hours today, I can stand it." ”
Sniper looked at Nineteen in surprise, but finally didn't ask anything, just nodded lightly and said:
"Okay, let's get started. ”
Nineteen ran towards the forest again, this time feeling particularly confident, and his body seemed to be much lighter than yesterday. And he already has a way to deal with Xiao Jin. When Xiao Jin appeared in front of Nineteen again, Nineteen changed his previous panicked and dodging posture, and at the moment when Xiao Jin pounced, he suddenly rose into the air, and his right palm slashed at Xiao Jin at the same time. Xiao Jin was hit by a sudden force, and because he was defenseless, he suddenly turned over and fell into the grass in the distance. Nineteen laughed, flashed, and ran away again.
Xiao Jin sat up, stunned for a moment, and finally figured out what was going on. Jumped up and went to catch up with Nineteen again. This time, Xiao Jinxue was obedient, and after catching up with the nineteenth, he saw the nineteenth old trick repeated, so he dodged like lightning and missed the empty palm. However, this pause made Nineteen run away again. So, one man and one monkey dodged, moving and jumping in the forest, until Nineteen was exhausted, and was caught by Xiao Jin. And it took half an hour.
However, Nineteen sadly found that his internal strength had been exhausted, not only could he not use his empty palm, but his running speed had also slowed down significantly with the strength of his body alone. So, after starting all over again, the time it took for Kim to catch him became shorter and shorter, and it didn't take half an hour to catch him for the last time.
Two hours later, Nineteen lay down in the grass again, panting and looking at Xiao Jin who was standing on the side with a sense of discouragement. However, the firm belief of "not giving up" still made Nineteen struggle again, and continued to repeat the process of being ravaged and tortured again and again. And the amazing thing is that Nineteen, who is obviously no longer energetic, can always be stimulated again and again, so that the training has never stopped.
When it was time for lunch, the sniper called out to them. He didn't let Nineteen go back to the palace to eat, but took out a large piece of cooked beef, cut it into several pieces with a knife, and served it as Nineteen's lunch. After lunch, I rested for an hour and began the torture training again.
By the time the six-hour training was finally over, Nineteen was as soft as a puddle of mud. Xiao Jin rested with him for a whole hour before he got up and walked back to Biyou Palace. Concubine Xi saw the embarrassed nineteen and didn't complain anymore. Since Ziyan went back to the Zhao balcony to see the queen, and the other palace maids were not familiar with Nineteen, Concubine Xi personally helped Nineteen to the bath room and carefully wiped Nineteen's body, which made Nineteen's heart warm. Nineteen is actually willing to get along with Concubine Xi, Concubine Xi is naturally beautiful, beautiful as a flower, although Nineteen is still a child, but who doesn't like beautiful girls? What's more, Concubine Xi is close and kind to him, and she doesn't have the frame of a concubine at all, and she never puts on the majesty of her stepmother. Like a friend, and like a sister, Nineteen once again has a sense of family affection. It's just that the identity of the stepmother makes Nineteen feel uncomfortable. But as time went on, this discomfort became less and less.
After showering and changing clothes, sleeping again, and having a full dinner, night came again. With last night's experience, Nineteen didn't waste a little time, sat cross-legged, and began to refine qi and meditate.
Time passed day after day. Nineteen has begun to adapt to the extreme training of each day. He no longer uses the empty palm to deal with Xiao Jin, but saves his internal strength and physical strength as much as possible, and fights wits and courage with Xiao Jin in the big forest. As Nineteen's physical fitness improved rapidly, Nineteen's condition got better and better, and it became more and more difficult for Jin to capture Nineteen.
Three months have passed in an instant, and the Nineteen Refining Qi has taken the lead in making a breakthrough, as long as there is a little internal force, the body will have a protective Qi of the body. Originally, Nineteen only felt that the internal force had suddenly increased greatly, and they didn't know that they had broken through. Until he fought with Xiao Jin, in a hurry, he used a little internal force, and Gang Qi formed, knocking Xiao Jin to the ground at once. Xiao Jin quit, because Nineteen couldn't help but have no control power, Xiao Jin was beaten! Seeing Xiao Jin pouting and running out, the sniper was taken aback, and hurriedly checked Nineteen's body, although he didn't know the method of chaotic qi refining, but he still knew Gang Qi. Being able to protect the body with qi is already a very high level in terms of internal cultivation. Sniper Gong is ecstatic in his heart, what people say about planting beans and getting beans, planting melons and getting melons, and he planting beans not only gets beans but also gets melons!
With the support of strong internal force, even if he doesn't need to protect himself, it will be difficult for Xiao Jin to catch nineteen in an hour. Therefore, the first phase of training is over.
Nineteen looked at the sniper with a slight expression, and said loudly, "Can I learn the Soaring Cloud Phantom now?"
The smile on the sniper's face became more and more intense, and he said to Nineteen with a smile:
"It's coming, it's coming. In this case, you can get a heavy armor and try again, and if you can pass the level, you can move on to the next step of learning. ”
Heavy armor? That's more than twice as heavy as light armor. Can you still take a step forward with it on? He hated the sniper's smile more and more now, and when he smiled, he must have come up with a bad idea to torture people.
Nineteen returned to Biyou Palace with a dejected face. Concubine Xi saw his unhappy look and hurriedly asked why. Nineteen talked about the insidious, vicious, and impersonal snipe of the sniper in an indignant tone, deliberately making things difficult, and said that in the end, Nineteen sat on the bed as if he was deflated, and was silent. Concubine Xi listened to Nineteen's venting with a smile all the time, and then said softly: "The sniper entered the palace just to teach you magic skills, you said that he deliberately made things difficult for you, I don't believe it, you have been holding on for so long, you can't give up no matter what." You are a child with strong perseverance, and I have never seen a child of your age endure so much hardship. I'm sure you'll make it through. ”
Nineteen didn't know that the sniper was still good for him in the end, but he was tired and irritable, and he couldn't get angry. Under the persuasion of Concubine Xi, the anger in her belly gradually disappeared. Since I came back early today, after resting for a while, I heard that Concubine Xi was going to catch crickets, and my childlike heart rose, so I followed them to the back of the rockery to look for crickets.
The next day, Nineteen found a pair of small heavy armor to wear on his body, and went to the forest early to wait for the sniper.
After the sniper came, he did not call the little golden monkey as usual, but said to Nineteen:
"You already have a gang qi to protect yourself, and Xiao Jin can no longer be your sparring partner. Therefore, the old man will personally spar. Rest assured, the old man has always been tolerant of his juniors. I won't embarrass you. Under the old man, as long as you survive a moment without being caught, you will pass the test!"
Nineteen's face suddenly fell. Just kidding! Let the sniper catch himself? Will it take a moment? Even if you don't wear armor, you can catch yourself in the blink of an eye. Is this old man addicted to torture? Or is there something wrong with his head?
Seeing that Nineteen's face was getting more and more ugly, the sniper laughed twice, patted Nineteen's shoulder again, and said: "Little baby, don't worry, the old man only uses one success, and he still lets you run first, and after ten breaths, the old man will chase you again." ”
1. Success? Nineteen doesn't know how deep the sniper's skill is, but if he can fight a tie with the master, his skill must be unfathomable, and his success is also very strong. However, based on past experience, although this old man is not very reliable, he will not give himself an impossible task. Opportunities have to be fought for, and I must persevere through this hurdle.
So, the old and the young played the game of hide and seek again. Although he wore armor twice as heavy, Nineteen's agility was still far greater than before due to the greatly increased strength. But despite this, the success of the sniper is not trivial, and he still catches Nineteen quickly again and again.
The days of cultivation were very fulfilling, but they also passed quickly, and another three months passed in a flash. Today's nineteen is no longer what it used to be. Running like a flyer in heavy armor, moving and dodging as fast as lightning, climbing and jumping like an ape. And the gang qi on his body is getting stronger and stronger, and it is difficult for him to succeed in sniping. Therefore, the sniper man was added to the second success, and finally stabilized the situation. It wasn't until one day that Sniper felt that Nineteen's physical fitness was enough to complete the following cultivation, so he finally ended this half-year-long hunt game.
At this time, the big forest of Chu Palace was already a fallen tree, and the cold current in the north swept through Jingshui and hit the land of Jingchu, and Yingdu was full of winter chill. But Sniper Gong and Nineteen are cultivating hotly, and they don't feel the cold at all. Sniper Gong began to officially teach the core content of the Soaring Cloud Phantom Divine Skill, namely the Cloud Riding Step and the Phantom Step.
The so-called cloud step, as the name suggests, is to change the body in the air, and even when a person is about to fall from exhaustion in the air, he can take off again with his strength. The so-called phantom step is about speed, fast to the extreme, like a dream.
The key to learning the two types of footwork is to have two important foundations. One is that the body can be as light as catkins and act as fast as lightning. After half a year of tempering, the nineteenth has reached the standard. The second is that the internal force must reach the level of external release, and this point has already been reached in the first place. Actually, there is another important foundation, which Sniper did not mention. That is, to luck the internal force to the soles of the feet, especially in the air, to have the ability to quickly luck the internal force of the dantian to the soles of the feet, and to be able to run from the soles of the feet to the whole body, so as to realize the method of riding the clouds. This is the most difficult place for ordinary martial arts practitioners to cultivate, and it is difficult to achieve results without ten years of skill. For Nineteen, however, there is little to no practice. Because he was born with a chaotic body, he could have been angry at the heel. From the soles of the feet to the whole body, it is as simple and easy as an ordinary Qi practitioner from the dantian luck to the whole body, and there is no hindrance. This is also the reason why Sniper Gong believes that Nineteen is the most suitable for cultivating divine footwork.
Although the techniques of footwork, luck meridian routes, formulas, etc. are complicated, they are not difficult. It only took ten days, and Nineteen had already memorized it. It took another twenty days of repeated sparring for Sniper, and Nineteen finally mastered the basic skills of Tengyun Phantom Footwork. The rest is to practice continuously for a long time, and gradually improve the level of footwork as your own skills improve.
Now, the relationship between Sniper Gong and Nineteen has undergone significant changes. Sniper Gong is more and more fond of Nineteen, and he has completely regarded Nineteen as his descendant disciple. And Nineteen has long lost his resentment towards Sniper, and has become more and more respectful of Sniper, and his strange appearance has become a sign of cuteness. Every day, as long as I see the sniper, I feel very fulfilling, and once I can't see it, I will feel empty.
On this day, the sniper suddenly said solemnly to Nineteen:
"Nineteen, your basic skills are already very solid now, and you can already practice on your own. Uncle Shi is going to go on a long trip, and I want to go back to Nanshan in the city to see your master, and tell him about your cultivation situation, so that he can rest assured. Second, I want to go back to the barbarians, there will be great changes in the clan in the near future, and I must hurry there as soon as possible, hoping to avoid regrets. As for what's going on, Uncle Shi will tell you slowly in the future. I heard that the palace is going to open a palace school in the near future, you have to participate in the study seriously, I heard that there is a famous teacher who teaches in person, and the opportunity should not be missed. In addition, you must keep two things in mind. First, the cultivation of divine skills should not be sluggish for a day, and the cultivation should not be less than two hours a day, and it is best to reach four hours. When Uncle Shi returns to the palace next spring, he will begin to teach you the magic technique of shapeshifting. The second is that the identity of the uncle must not be told to others, this matter is very important, you must remember!"
After hearing this, Nineteen's eyes were full of reluctance, but he still nodded obediently and said, "Uncle Shi, don't worry, I have remembered everything you have told." When you see Master, say hello to me. In addition, you must go back to the palace in the spring, don't lose your trust!"
The sniper also showed a rare reluctance and pity, gently touched Nineteen's head, opened his mouth, and finally didn't say anything, and then, resolutely turned around, faced the cold winter wind, and gradually moved away......
