Hunting Immortals and Demons

There are a total of eighteen styles of Iron Fist, which are actually not difficult. Lu Yan basically mastered them in two days.

The difficult thing is that the eighteen moves must be combined with the corresponding breathing methods and practiced repeatedly until the qi and blood of the twelve main meridians are sensed and the qi and blood are successfully transported as the moves are performed.

After Lu Qingshan taught him for three days, he saw that Lu Yan had basically mastered it and could practice it on his own, so he continued to hunt in the mountains.

Lu Qingshan said that once he gets started in martial arts, his appetite will increase greatly, and he should reserve more food for Lu Yan.

Lu Yan originally planned to go hunting in the mountains with Lu Qingshan, but now that he was new to martial arts, he could only focus all his energy on martial arts, and the hunting could only be postponed.

Hoo ho ho.

In the bamboo forest, Lu Yan's figure was moving around and swinging his fists one after another, which was quite interesting to watch.

In the beginning, every time he made a move, he had to think about how to perform the next move, but after several days of hard practice, the moves gradually became coherent.

Every time a punch is struck, the Taoist scriptures in his mind will shine.

As for the archery clone, it practiced when it still had energy and stopped when it had no energy. It had nothing to do with Iron Wire Fist.

Lu Yan speculated that once the Iron Wire Fist is introduced, he should be able to condense an Iron Wire Fist clone.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Lu Yan has been practicing Iron Wire Fist for twenty days, and he still hasn't gotten started.

On this day, Lu Qingshan came back very late, and did not return until it was completely dark.

As soon as he entered the door, Lu Yan smelled the smell of blood and saw the bloody wound on Lu Qingshan's shoulder.

"Master, you are injured. Is it serious? Did you encounter a large beast?"

Wang Cui asked eagerly, a little panicked and worried.

"Fuck, it's okay, what do you think this is?"

Lu Qingshan smiled and opened the large bundle of dry firewood, revealing a roe deer.

This roe deer weighs forty kilograms, which is as much as ten hares.

"Dad, have you gone into the mountains?"

Lu Yan said.

There are generally few large wild beasts on the outskirts of Woniu Mountain, but deep in the mountains, large wild beasts often appear, which is very dangerous for ordinary people.

"Well, Yan'er, once you start practicing martial arts, you will be able to transport Qi and blood to temper your body, and you will also need to accumulate Qi and blood. By then, your appetite will increase greatly, and you will need a lot of meat to practice. Dad wants to reserve more meat for you."

"Don't worry, I have more than ten years of hunting experience, and everything will be fine."

Lu Qingshan pretended to be relaxed.

"father"

Lu Yan clenched his fists and his nose felt sore.

He knew in his heart that Lu Qingshan said it was easy, but the process must be dangerous, and it could be seen from the wound.

"Dad, don't take risks in the future. I would rather practice slower than put you in danger. If something happens to you, what will mom and I do?"

Lu Yandao, the love is sincere and there is no falsehood at all.

Now, he truly regards Lu Qingshan and Wang Cui as his closest relatives.

"Yes, head of the family, Yan'er is right. If something happens to you, Yan'er and I will not be able to survive." Wang Cui also followed.

"Okay, I promise you, I won't take risks if I'm not completely sure in the future. Damn it, clean up the roe deer and marinate it with fennel powder."

Lu Qingshan said.

Fennel pepper is a wild seasoning with a spicy and salty taste. Dried and ground into powder and marinated in meat, it can keep the meat from rotting for several months.

I had no money to buy salt, so I had to use fennel pepper instead.

"Dad, let me help you take care of your wound."

"Well, Yan'er, if you want to tell dad if you want to learn Iron Wire Fist, then ask your mother to prepare more meat for you."

Tonight, Wang Cui cut three kilograms of roe deer meat and stewed it in a large pot. The aroma was intoxicating, and Lu Yan ate two kilograms.

Two kilograms of roe deer meat improved the progress of archery a lot.

In the past twenty days, my archery skills have steadily improved, and are close to reaching the peak, much better than before.

"It's coming soon. In a few days, I can get started with Iron Fist, and I should also be able to reach the pinnacle of archery."

Lu Yan was full of expectations.

In the blink of an eye, three days flew by.

Sure enough, archery was the first to reach its peak.

In the bamboo forest, Lu Yan kept pumping his fists, his whole body was steaming with heat, his skin was slightly red, and the qi and blood in the twelve meridians in his body were gurgling.

After a while, Lu Yan stopped his work and stared intently in his mind.

On the Taoist book, another humanoid pattern emerged, and then separated from the Taoist book and turned into another 'Lu Yan'.

There are still words above the head: clone, iron fist, first glimpse of the door (1%)

"Sure enough, my guess is correct. When you get started with Iron Wire Fist, you will also form a clone."

Lu Yan was very curious and looked at the Iron Fist clone carefully.

The iron wire fist clone is very similar to the archery clone. It has no clothes and its body is transparent. The muscles, meridians, bones and even internal organs inside are clearly visible.

But there are differences.

At this time, the Iron Thread Fist clone was practicing without any distractions, constantly performing the Eighteen Styles of the Iron Thread Fist. When he punched, he could clearly see red blood flowing through the twelve main meridians in his body.

But soon, the Iron Fist clone stopped and remained motionless.

Lu Yan's stomach also growled.

It was approaching evening at this time, so Lu Yan simply called it a day and returned, just as Lu Qingshan also returned from hunting.

"Dad, I've just started to learn the iron fist technique."

Lu Yan said.

"Getting started? Okay, not bad."

Lu Qingshan looked happy and praised.

Although he was praising him, Lu Qingshan was actually a little disappointed in his heart.

Based on Lu Yan's talent in archery, he thought Lu Yan could get started earlier.

An ordinary person who practices third-rate martial arts can get started in about one month.

He used it for 24 days, and Lu Yan used it for 23 days. They were slightly better than him, but they could only be regarded as average.

It was far from the martial arts prodigy he had imagined.

But there was no turning back. Since Lu Yan was allowed to embark on the path of martial arts, he couldn't give up halfway.

"Once you get started, you must start to accumulate energy and blood. I will ask your mother to cook more meat for you every day."

Lu Qingshan said.

That night, Wang Cui cooked two kilograms of meat and gave it all to Lu Yan.

Lu Yan did not refuse. As long as he was promoted, their family would not be short of food and their life would get better and better.

After eating two kilograms of meat, the Iron Wire Fist clone began to practice without any distractions.

Lu Yan shifted his focus to the Iron Fist, and the archery clone stopped, no longer absorbing energy for training.

The effect of clone cultivation is not comparable to that of ordinary people. When people practice cultivation, there will always be distracting thoughts and distractions. However, when practicing clone cultivation, there are no distracting thoughts at all. You can let go of everything and focus on cultivation wholeheartedly.

When the Iron Wire Fist clone stopped, it was already dawn, and the progress increased by 20 points, reaching the first glimpse (21%).

Lu Yan calculated that for the same pound of meat, the iron wire fist clone would take about the same amount of time to practice as the archery clone, but the progress would be very different.

For the first time, the ordinary archery clone with two kilograms of meat can increase the progress by 60%, while the Iron Fist clone can only increase the progress by 20%.

Sure enough, martial arts is martial arts, and is not comparable to ordinary archery. There is a huge difference in the energy consumed at the same level.

For breakfast, there is still meat, about a pound.

Lu Qingshan told Wang Cui that from now on he would prepare meat for Lu Yan in the morning, noon and evening, about a pound for each meal.

After breakfast, Lu Yan immediately went to the bamboo forest to practice boxing.

Huhu

Lu Yan punched, and the sound of his fist punching through the air could be vaguely heard. The energy and blood in the twelve main meridians began to circulate, increasing at an extremely slow rate.

Three hours later, Lu Yan stopped practicing boxing.

"The progress of Iron Wire Fist only increased by 5% and then stopped."

Lu Yanning thought, according to yesterday's rules, wouldn't one pound of meat increase the food intake by 10%?

He quickly understood the key.

When he practices boxing, he carries Qi and blood, and when he accumulates Qi and blood, he also needs energy.

He ate the meat and split it into two parts. One half was absorbed by the Taoist scriptures to provide the clone with training, and the other half was absorbed by the body to provide nutrients to the body and enhance Qi and blood.

Energy is halved, and progress is naturally halved.

"It's not enough. There's not enough meat at all."

Lu Yan sighed.

But for the time being, there is no better way. Only by waiting for the strength to improve and going hunting in the mountains with Lu Qingshan can we obtain more meat.

As the saying goes, sharpening the knife will not waste time chopping firewood.

Lu Yan finished his work and went home.

In the past few days, the faces of the villagers in Kaoshan Village have been filled with joy.

Because it is the harvest season for potatoes. During this period, the weather is sunny and rainy, and the weather is very good. All the potatoes grow plump, which is considered a good harvest.

After paying the taxes, every family will have plenty left over. With this batch of potatoes, it will not be difficult to survive this winter.

Once winter is over, start planting other crops and form a virtuous cycle, and things will get better.

Everyone's heart is full of hope.

"People in this era really don't want much. Being able to have enough to eat is happiness."

Lu Yan sighed.

Four and a half days later.

"Finally achieved a little success."

Lu Yan was delighted.

For four and a half days, eating three kilograms of meat per day can increase the progress by about 15%. Adding some other foods can also increase the progress by 2%, and the progress can be increased by about 17% in one day.

Of course, you can also improve your progress by practicing boxing on your own, but it is very slow and far from the progress of your clone.

The Iron Wire Fist has reached a small level of success, opening up the eighteen branches of the arms and palms and connecting them with the twelve main meridians. When practicing the boxing, the speed of accumulating qi and blood is indeed accelerated a lot.

And the qi and blood spread into the palms of the arms along with the branch veins, which can temper the arms and palms and enhance the strength of the arms and palms.

In fact, when practicing boxing, other parts of the body can also get the penetration of Qi and blood and be tempered, but the extent is much slower than that of the arms and palms.

Once the Iron Wire Fist is in operation, faint black lines will appear on both fists, just like iron wires. This is where the name Iron Wire Fist comes from.

The Iron Wire Fist clone has also changed, and the 18 branches of the arms and palms can be clearly seen, with Qi and blood flowing, corresponding to the real body.

However, after the Iron Thread Fist has entered the minor stage, the clone and the real body practice boxing together. One pound of meat can only increase the progress by 2.5%, and the progress of the Iron Thread Fist begins to slow down.

In the blink of an eye, another month and a half has passed.

The Iron Fist clone is extremely proficient (1%).

Originally, according to the previous progress, it would only take a little over a month to reach perfection in Iron Fist.

But because the meat he had previously stored was used up, even if Lu Qingshan went hunting early in the morning and late at night, he would not be able to harvest every day. Lu Yan's daily meat intake was reduced from three kilograms to one and a half kilograms, so it only took him a month and a half. , reached perfection.

But this is still worth ten years of hard training for ordinary people.

Lu Yan also figured out the general rule. Every time martial arts improves to a level, the progress of improvement will be halved with the same amount of meat.

"Dad, I want to go hunting in the mountains with you."

Lu Yan spoke.

His boxing skills are progressing at a rapid pace, and his energy and blood accumulation are naturally not slow at all. His height has grown even more. Lu Yan is now 1.7 meters tall.

You must know that when he first traveled through time, he was less than 1.6 meters tall.

His strength is beyond that of ordinary strong men, and coupled with his superb iron fist, his combat prowess is already impressive. It's time to go hunting in the mountains.

This is normal. Ordinary people have been practicing boxing for several months, but their boxing skills are still just scratching the surface.

The first glimpse of the portal didn't even open the branch veins. It could only carry the qi and blood of the twelve main veins. The speed of qi and blood accumulation was as slow as a snail. How could he compare with Lu Yan?

Perfection has opened up 72 branches.
