Circling slowly.

In the blink of an eye, nearly one month has passed.

At the middle peak of Lingxuan Peak, there is a slightly open place between the bamboo forests.

"Mountains are as immovable as they are majestic. This heaviness is not limited to your body, your posture and moves. All your thoughts also need to be united and immobile. To achieve the unity of intention and strength, Only then can you understand this way.”

Chen Mu was wearing green clothes and was instructing a young girl who was practicing spear training.

Dressed in the clothes of an inner disciple, the girl is full of energy and blood. Although she has a slender figure and fair skin, her legs and arms seem to contain great power. Every move of the spear she wields is powerful and heavy, capable of opening monuments. Cracked stone.

It's just that the power erupted from these moves basically comes from the strength of her body, and there is no spear posture. It is obvious that she has already entered the Yijin realm, but she doesn't even have a spear posture. Never mastered it.

The girl is Jin Linger.

As an innate divine body, she was discovered by Chen Mu in Bijun and introduced into the Qixuan Sect's inner sect's female disciples. Her talent in body tempering can be said to be unique. Less than two years after joining the sect, she has already entered the Yijin realm. And grinding the skin and training the flesh is the limit.

But in comparison, her understanding of skills is lacking. She has been practicing spear training for nearly two years, but she still has not mastered any spear posture, let alone the artistic conception, which seems very far away from her.

Buzz!

The next moment, Jin Ling'er was seen holding the handle of the gun with both hands, and slashed it down with all his strength. The burst of force made the wind roar, and finally the gun hit the mountain rock, smashing the extremely solid rock. Traces of cracks and spread in a circle.

But even in this last move, he still didn't use his spear.

A few beads of sweat appeared on the girl's forehead, and her chest rose and fell slightly. After taking a breath, she looked at Chen Mu with some shame and said, "This disciple is stupid and cannot grasp the feeling you mentioned."

Chen Mu looked calm and said: "Manpower is sometimes poor. Your talent in body tempering is excellent, better than mine back then. It's okay to be slow in artistic conception and understanding. Sometimes understanding can't decide everything. Whether there is guidance from experts, whether there are resources to assist, whether there is a sudden inspiration... these can all determine the level of spiritual practice."

"As long as you don't fall too far behind your peers in terms of artistic conception, then you won't be weak at the same level."

Said.

Chen Mu took a step forward and stretched out his hand towards Jin Ling'er.

Jin Ling'er was slightly startled at first, then quickly realized and respectfully handed over the spear in her hand. Chen Mu shook his right hand slightly, flashing an afterimage. When he took it back, he had already held her spear. Got it in hand.

then,

He lifted the spear with his right hand and casually waved the same move as Jin Ling'er did before.

At the level of a martial arts master, there is no difference between the eighteen kinds of weapons. All moves point directly to the essence, and they are just methods of power movement. However, Chen Mu did not use it to a high level, he only used it in comparison with Jin Ling'er. There is no difference in strength, but the difference is that the spear power of this 'mountain-penetrating spear technique' is displayed, and strength and power are combined.

The realm is so advanced that even Jin Ling'er can't understand it now. The spear power closest to her is the thing suitable for her to comprehend. Although Chen Mu only used the same power as hers, he superimposed the spear power, and the last one When the gun fell and landed on the rock, it no longer smashed the rock into pieces, but concentrated all the power on one point, causing only the central fist-sized part of the rock to crack and explode, while the surrounding But it didn't break into any cracks.

"Amazing."

Jin Ling'er has been practicing this gun technique for two years, and she can naturally tell that Chen Mu has exactly the same moves as her, and has exactly the same power, but the power they exert is different. There is something in Chen Mu's eyes when she looks at her. Very respectful.

Now she is not the novice who knew nothing when she just left Bijun. She knows that Chen Mu, the benefactor and the current master of Lingxuan Peak, is recognized as the most talented person in contemporary martial arts in the eleven states of Hanbei Dao. figure.

"I don't know when I will be able to practice like this."

Jin Ling'er looked at the fist-sized hole that Chen Mu had smashed into the rock, and she couldn't help but speak in fascination.

Chen Mu tossed the spear gently and returned it to her, saying: "Practice hard, and it will be a matter of time for you to master the spear. Your understanding is not high, and it is only compared to your body tempering talent." Said, your understanding actually exceeds that of most people."

This was not a pretense of praise for Jin Ling'er.

It seems that she has not yet mastered the spear technique, but you must know that it has been less than two years since she entered the Qixuan Sect to practice the spear technique, and she has fully mastered this spear technique, and she is only one step away from the spear technique. .

Like in his former Yucheng, many people practiced a sword technique for three to five years, but they might not be able to achieve great success.

As he said before, innate understanding is only part of it. Opportunities, resources, teachers... are all important parts of martial arts practice. In the past, his understanding was not much higher than Jin Ling'er, but with the system panel This opportunity revealed his potential, leaving him far behind all his peers.

"Disciple must live up to expectations."

Jin Ling'er took the spear handed back by Chen Mu, took a deep breath and responded. At the same time, she recalled Chen Mu's previous moves over and over again in her mind, trying to understand the subtlety of the spear's power.

When Chen Mu saw Jin Ling'er holding the gun and beginning to carefully understand the marksmanship he had pointed out before, Chen Mu nodded slightly, then turned his gaze to the other side and said to another girl not far away who was much smaller than Jin Ling'er:

"Xiao Hong, come here."

The little girl not far away, who looked younger than Jin Ling'er, had been standing respectfully and quietly watching. Until Chen Mu called her, she immediately came over and saluted Chen Mu: "Master Peak Master. "

Although Chen Mu asked her and Jin Ling'er to call them senior brothers earlier, now Chen Mu is the elder of Qixuan Sect and the new peak master of Lingxuan Peak. The entire Lingxuan Peak except Chu Jingshu and others are in the same division as Chen Mu. Except for the sect's guardian deacon, everyone else must treat Chen Mu with the courtesy of a junior and a disciple.

Actually.

As the master of Lingxuan Peak, Chen Mu is the nominal master of all the disciples of Lingxuan Peak.

However, generally speaking, the elder peak masters of the Qixuan Sect often don't care much about the outer and inner disciples. Only the most outstanding among them, after being accepted by them as 'true successors', can be regarded as truly worshiping the gate wall and regarded as Official disciple.

Only true disciples are qualified to call Chen Mu ‘Master’, and everyone else must respectfully call him Peak Master.

Chen Mu has not accepted a disciple now, but after nearly a month, after finally completing the practice in the Qiankun field, he still had nothing to do, so he patrolled the Lingxuan Peak and brought together Zhao Xiaohong and Jin Ling, who were old friends with him. Bring your son up and give him some pointers.

"Come, let me see your swordsmanship."

Chen Mu nodded slightly at Zhao Xiaohong.

Unlike Jin Ling'er, Zhao Xiaohong is just the opposite. Her talent in body tempering is not outstanding. Now that she has been in the sect for nearly a year, she has barely reached the level of skin grinding and has not yet entered the realm of flesh training.

But his understanding is outstanding. As far as he knows, he seems to have mastered sword skills within a year.

"yes."

Zhao Xiaohong responded respectfully, then with a clang, he unsheathed his sword and swung it with a three-foot-long green blade. The sword light spread like silver pear blossoms dancing wildly. Although the strength was far inferior to Jin Ling'er, his skills had indeed reached the level of sword power. level.

Chen Mu couldn't help but sigh at this state of affairs.

Although Sword Movement is just the beginning for him now, and the upper level is the threshold of artistic conception, and then there are the second and third steps... But after practicing Sword Movement in just one year, this talent is indeed outstanding. .

You must know that with his ability, it took him nearly a year to master the first sword style, and he had some ability to protect himself in Yu County. Zhao Xiaohong had never been exposed to martial arts before, purely relying on his own understanding. The sword becomes strong in years.

soon.

After Zhao Xiaohong finished one set of sword skills, she swung out a second set of sword skills. This one was not yet fully practiced. She had obviously just mastered it, and there was still some distance between her and her sword skills. However, this was enough to show her high level of understanding.

After Chen Mu looked at the two sword techniques, he thought for a moment and said: "In terms of skills, you are uniquely gifted in understanding and talent. Before you master the artistic conception, you basically don't need the guidance of others. As for body tempering... your understanding of techniques, It can actually be of some help in tempering the body, you probably haven’t practiced the physical boxing technique yet.”

"Um."

Zhao Xiaohong responded respectfully: "The protector asked me to practice the first few realms of body tempering to the limit. I am currently practicing the second level of skin grinding, and I have not tried to practice flesh for the time being."

Chen Mu nodded slightly at her and said: "The advice of the protector is correct. Your talent is inferior to that of Jin Ling'er. If you try to enter the country and climb up early, it will be extremely difficult to make up for the foundation later. At least in the two realms of skin grinding and meat training, you have to practice to the limit as much as possible. You can also pursue one or two of Yijin. If it takes too much time to enter the realm, consider giving up."

Jin Ling'er has a special physique and is born with divine power. She can practice as much as she wants by grinding skin and flesh. I don't think it takes much effort to change tendons. Only the jade bone realm will be a little difficult for her. But with her qualifications, when the time comes, Most of Lingxuan Peak's power-transmitting protectors would be on the side to protect her and let her try to temper the jade bones, so there was basically no need to worry about the body tempering practice.

Zhao Xiaohong is different. Body tempering practice is her weakness. If she wants to reach the level of Jin Ling'er, she needs to practice hard and have sufficient resources. As an inner disciple, she has the same resource supply. Adequate.

"Disciples must obey the teachings."

Zhao Xiaohong listened to Chen Mu's words and responded obediently.

Chen Mu looked at her carefully, and then said to her: "Come here."

Zhao Xiaohong immediately stepped forward.

"Don't move."

Chen Mu came closer and gave her an order. Then he suddenly raised his hand, and his fingers were like afterimages, which were invisible in an instant, and passed around her in a circle.

Zhao Xiaohong only felt that for an instant, her whole body, from her forehead and eyebrows to her ankles and feet, every joint, acupuncture and meridians seemed to be touched by a finger at the same time. Of course, she knew that this could not be at the same time, but Chen Mu The movement was so fast that she couldn't react to it in her consciousness. It felt like she was being touched by a thousand fingers in an instant.

"Um……"

Zhao Xiaohong snorted involuntarily, and suddenly there was almost no part of her body that was not feeling sore and numb. Her whole body immediately lost strength and could not keep standing, so she fell softly to the side.

But before she fell down, she felt like she was falling into a ball of invisible soft cotton. When she opened her eyes, she couldn't see anything physical around her. She was only lightly placed on the ground by this invisible energy.

And after doing all this.

Chen Mu did not look at her again. Instead, he showed a thoughtful look and just stood there, holding his chin with one hand. It was not until Zhao Xiaohong felt that the soreness all over her body had recovered a lot and she reluctantly stood up again that Chen Mu Finally he turned his gaze back to her and said to her:

"I tried the meridians and bones on your body and prepared a set of boxing techniques for you to hone your body, energy and blood. Come and practice with me and let me see the effect."

For example, Chen Mu once practiced the Mang Niu Meat Training Technique, Tiger Demon Bone Forging Fist, etc. They are basically the most universal boxing techniques. They are applicable to any martial artist with any physical constitution. For Zhao Xiaohong, the applicability is at least as high as Eighty-nine percent, but if you want to achieve a 100% effect, you can only tailor a boxing technique based on her physical development and every part of her skin, flesh and bones.

It is actually not easy to do this. Even a person with five internal organs and six internal organs cannot easily create a specific and exclusive body-building boxing technique based on a person's bones and body. Only Chen Mu's skills are at the pinnacle, and the heaven and earth wheel are the best. When you have reached the seventh level of Yin training, your understanding of the human body is also extremely meticulous, and you can figure out an appropriate boxing technique in a short period of time.

certainly.

He was not sure whether it was completely right, and Zhao Xiaohong needed to try it himself to find out.

Hearing Chen Mu's words, Zhao Xiaohong couldn't help but blink her eyes... An exclusive body-building boxing technique tailor-made for her?

She had heard of this kind of thing, but it seemed that only those masters with superb martial arts could do it, and they obviously would not waste such energy on ordinary disciples. She was not Chen Mu's true disciple, so she could get Chen Mu's This kind of cultivation will inevitably cause some ripples in my heart, and I will quietly strengthen my belief.

Regardless of whether she could become Chen Mu's disciple in the future, she could not slack off or let Chen Mu down.

Chen Mu didn't know what the little girl was thinking. He had finally mastered the seventh level of the Wheel Seal of Heaven and Earth. After reaching the pinnacle of the master level in terms of skills, he was tempted to try his hand at creation, but he did not accept Zhao Xiaohong. The idea of ​​​​being a true disciple, but if Zhao Xiaohong and Jin Ling'er can meet the standards of true disciples in the future, then it will be okay to accept them as disciples.

Although he didn't really want to take over the position of Lingxuan Peak Master, he still took over it from Qin Mengjun. He couldn't give up immediately, and he still had to take care of it a little bit.

"This boxing technique has four movements in total. From the starting posture to the final posture, you can practice with me one by one."

Chen Mu spoke to Zhao Xiaohong, and then he performed a standing posture. It seemed ordinary, but there was some mystery in it: "The bones in your legs are slightly weak, so practice this posture." Well, it will make up for the shortcomings of your legs. Remember that your body is like catkins floating in the wind, and your heart is like duckweed flowing in the water."

Say it.

Chen Mu then signaled Zhao Xiaohong to try.

After Zhao Xiaohong responded respectfully, she imitated Chen Mu's movements and posed. After all, she was very perceptive. After Chen Mu corrected his posture twice, she made completely correct movements. In less than a quarter of an hour, Gradually, it began to move closer to the direction of "the body is like catkins floating in the wind", touching on the core essence of this pose.

Chen Mu couldn't help but nodded slightly when he saw this. If it were Jin Ling'er, just practicing this posture would take a lot of effort. It would take even longer to understand the essence and practice according to it, and Zhao Xiaohong He is much more calm, and although his understanding is still far behind him, compared to ordinary people, he is indeed extremely smart.

soon.

Chen Mu taught all the subsequent three movements, and then watched Zhao Xiaohong practice them one by one. After careful consideration, he made some detailed modifications, additions or omissions. In the end, it only took half a day to complete. He compiled a five-step body-building method that is unique to Zhao Xiaohong, which can support her practice until she reaches the bone-forging realm.

Zhao Xiaohong had a direction and practiced over and over again, while Jin Ling'er on the other side was also waving a spear, and over and over again understood the teachings and guidance of Chen Mu's previous drills, and the marksmanship slightly touched the potential area. Although I have never been able to catch that glimmer of inspiration, it seems that it won't take long.

Chen Mu stood in front with his hands behind his hands, watching the two people making progress, and nodded slightly with a gentle expression.

And just when he was about to turn around and leave.

suddenly.

A gentle and familiar voice sounded from his ears.

"Chen Mu, come to Houya."

Hearing this voice, Chen Mu finally moved slightly and looked up towards the top of Lingxuan Peak.

Are you finally back?

This voice was all too familiar to him. It was his master Qin Mengjun. After the Bingzhou War, he sent the Black Turtle's body back to Qixuan Sect. Qin Mengjun had been away for two months and his whereabouts had never been found.

After being trapped in Qixuan Sect for more than ten years, he finally recovered and entered the realm of blood exchange. Chen Mu naturally understood Qin Mengjun very well. If it were him, it would be normal for him to travel for a year, but now it has only been two months.

Just these two ordinary months were another sublimation for him.

The seventh layer of the Heaven and Earth Wheel Seal.

The realm of heaven and earth!

Chen Mu relaxed his fists, then took one step towards the back cliff of Lingxuan Peak.

Nowadays, he is not very concerned about whether Qin Mengjun has found a body tempering prescription that uses Xuangui's blood as the main medicine. He just wants to compete with Qin Mengjun again to see how far his current strength has reached.

Step, step, step,

Chen Mu walked along the mountain path, quietly crossing dozens of feet with every step he took. Soon he arrived at the top of the peak alone. After bypassing the main hall at the top of the peak, he walked towards the back cliff of Lingxuan Peak.

When he came to the back cliff, he saw Qin Mengjun's figure already appeared there under the ancient tree on the back cliff and beside the rocks. He was still dressed in plain clothes, but his skin was as white as glass and not stained at all. dust.

This scene,

Chen Mu suddenly felt emotional in his heart.

He couldn't help but think of many years ago, when he first entered the Qixuan Sect's mountain gate and worshiped as a disciple of Lingxuan Peak.

At that time, Qin Mengjun also stood there like this, but Qin Mengjun's realm at that time was so profound that it was difficult for him to even look up. He only felt that standing there, he seemed to be connected to the heaven and the earth, and he was part of the entire sky.

now.

Qin Mengjun was still standing there, but the feeling he gave him was completely different, different in every sense.

The first is the Qi. Qin Mengjun's Qi many years ago seemed to be connected and blended with the sky. She stood there as if there was nothing and could not sense her existence. So now she is her own Qi. The machine spread into the void, and it seemed to be everywhere in the perception, as if she was standing everywhere under the sky.

When it comes to realm, there is no doubt that Qin Mengjun, who has entered the new era now, is more advanced than before. He has reached the ultimate level of martial arts, and his Qiantian martial arts has truly reached its peak.

But in terms of the gap between him and Qin Mengjun, it has narrowed many times compared to the past.

Even now, the vast and majestic feeling of the intersection of qi and heaven and earth does not have the unreachable oppression for him back then. He can even feel that the distance between him and her is very close. .

"Disciple pays homage to Master."

Chen Mu stepped forward and bowed lightly to Qin Mengjun.

Qin Mengjun looked gentle and waved his hand to stop Chen Mu without waiting. Then he took out a page of yellow paper from somewhere and tossed it gently. The thin yellow paper flew towards Chen Mu and landed in front of him.

Chen Mu reached out and took the yellow paper. At a glance, he saw that there was a very complicated prescription on it. The complexity was the first time he had seen it. There were dozens of different types of medicinal powders, and they were so detailed that when should they be used? What kind of medicinal powder is added, whether it is roasted with slow fire or calcined with strong fire, the main medicine required is Xuangui's hard work.

"This is the prescription for Guiling Powder. You have some hard work of the Black Turtle there, which should be able to help you temper your martial body. The ordinary demon blood of the Black Turtle can also be used, but the effect is not as good. But now that you have just completed your martial body, it should still be effective. ……Um?"

Qin Mengjun said to Chen Mu, then suddenly paused slightly and looked at Chen Mu in surprise.

Because the distance was close enough, and Chen Mu didn't try too hard to restrain all his energy in front of her, after carefully examining it, she felt that the energy in Chen Mu's body seemed to be stronger than when he was hunting the black turtle before. , and a little thicker.

Normally, when you reach the master level, tempering your martial body is a long-term job. Even with the help of a large number of resources, it should still take many months of hard work. However, Chen Mu seems to have improved in just two months.

"Your kung fu seems to have improved again?"

Qin Mengjun looked Chen Mu up and down and asked quietly.

"Yeah, a little bit of success."

Chen Mu was still looking at the prescription in his hand until he had written down all the contents on the prescription. Then he put it in his sleeve, looked at Qin Mengjun, then saluted seriously and said: "Master, thank you for your hard work. Disciple, please enter the mountain gate." , I have been practicing martial arts all the way up to now. I have been supported and cultivated by my master, and I have finally achieved some success. I am here to express my gratitude to my master."
