Chapter 797: The Sun Rises in the East, the Emperor’s Sword
During the special period of the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, the country was in turmoil and precarious, and a large number of brilliant martial artists emerged, dividing martial arts into the relatively distinct Ming Jin, An Jin, and Hua Jin.
There are very few people who can reach a higher level, whether in the Republic of China period or up to now.
At the beginning, warriors borrowed the Taoist concept of "Golden Elixir" and called the state of holding the elixir and sitting on the hips above the level of transforming energy the Golden Elixir, which is now the Dandao.
After achieving the Dao of Dan, how can one go further and reach the realm of "breaking through the void and being able to see the gods"? How should one practice after breaking through the void? The experience of those predecessors can no longer provide any reference, because they have never really taken that step, or even if they have taken it, they are not very clear.
Ever since breaking through the void, Lu Cheng has been consolidating himself step by step, but he does not have a clear method of cultivation.
The last realization only allowed Lu Cheng to systematically organize his own practice method. Based on the Huangting Neijing Sutra, he created a practice method of Dandao.
This time, Lu Cheng secluded himself for more than half a month, and suddenly realized a method of cultivation based on the Taoist "Nine-Character Mantra".
Tang Zichen's breakthrough in alchemy was achieved by relying on the "Eight-Section Brocade of Internal Strength".
However, Lu Cheng's "Nine-Character Mantra Secret Method" is even better than the "Eight-Section Brocade of Inner Strength". Every word and every pronunciation has a unique magical effect.
The "Lin" character technique can integrate the body and the spirit. Through special pronunciation, it can vibrate the whole body, condense the spirit, and make the body and the spirit reach a high degree of unity.
The "Bing" technique can stimulate the body's potential and mobilize every bit of energy in the body.
The "Dou" technique can connect the inside and outside of the body and make the inner and outer universe harmonious and unified.
The "zhe" character technique can mobilize the energy in the body and merge it with the external trend of heaven and earth to achieve "harmony between man and nature".
By analogy, each character can be used to assist in training, and can also be used in combat.
For example, the "Formation" technique can provide insight into the space around you and detect any slight movement. When the enemy is about to attack you, the air fluctuations caused by the slight muscle tremor will reveal his next move.
As soon as the enemy's thoughts arise, before he makes any moves, they have already been discovered. You can completely strike first and attack the enemy first, forcing him to change his moves or defend.
This concept is somewhat similar to the "Nine Swords of Dugu" in martial arts novels. It can completely achieve offense instead of defense. If you attack the enemy, you must rescue him, so there is no need for defense.
After completing his insights, Lu Cheng couldn't wait to start organizing his gains. He was busy for most of the day before he finished organizing his insights.
Afterwards, Lu Cheng shared it with Tang Zichen as soon as possible.
Tang Zichen had just broken through the void and was in need of a method to practice. After obtaining the "Nine-Character Mantra Secret Method", he immediately began to practice.
At the same time, Lu Cheng had an unexpected gain from this realization. He combined his hypnosis skills with the "Jie" character formula to create a killer move that was unique to him.
Hypnosis skills have the effect of shocking people's hearts, making them relax their vigilance and mental relaxation. The "Jie" formula also happens to have the ability to see into the secrets of people's hearts.
With the combination of the two, Lu Cheng can use his special pronunciation to instantly shock his opponent's mind and make him dazed for a moment.
When masters fight, the battle often happens in a matter of seconds.
It only takes a moment of distraction for the opponent to determine the winner, life or death.
Moreover, this move combined with the "zhe" character technique, was carried out with the power of heaven and earth. Even if the opponent's spirit was slightly stronger than Lu Cheng's, as long as it was not too strong, he would inevitably lose his mind in the face of such a sudden attack.
The nine-character mantra is like nine different buffs. If used skillfully in battle, it can have unexpected effects.
After having this realization, Lu Cheng was able to draw inferences from one instance to another and had different ideas about his other skills.
Calligraphy, painting, and musical instruments can all be practiced and incorporated into combat.
Human feelings are like knives, worldly wisdom is like fists, and the principles of boxing are everywhere in the way we behave and deal with people in life.
As his mind turned, Lu Cheng's thoughts flowed like a spring. All the details of the past thousands of years came to his mind, and then he continued to melt them and transformed them into boxing, spearmanship, and swordsmanship.
Getting up and going to the study, Lu Cheng picked up his brush to paint, and he painted freely on the rice paper with a majestic and majestic aura.
Soon, a picture appeared on the paper. It was the bank of a big river, with the setting sun, rocks piercing the sky, waves crashing against the shore, and thousands of piles of snow rolling up.
After finishing the calligraphy and painting, Lu Cheng picked up the pen and wrote: "The great river flows eastward, the waves wash away all the heroes of the ages..."
After finishing the first half of the poem, when he came to the part “The mountains and rivers are picturesque, and there are so many heroes at the moment”, Lu Cheng suddenly stopped writing and muttered to himself, “The mountains and rivers are picturesque, the mountains and rivers are picturesque”.
Afterwards, Lu Cheng came to the training room, took out a single sword, found Tang Zichen, and asked someone to call Baliming. Then he stood in the yard, using the sword as a pen and painting in the air, as if he was painting a picture of a vast landscape.
At first, Tang Zichen and Baliming didn't see anything, but when Lu Cheng uttered "Lin Bing Dou Zhe", he completely merged with the surrounding world. The knife in his hand seemed to have really turned into a big brush in their eyes, splashing ink in the void, painting a vast landscape.
When the painting was finished, Lu Cheng suddenly slashed with a knife, and the two seemed to see a red sun leaping out, illuminating the mountains and rivers, with extreme brilliance and grandeur.
At this moment, Baliming's eyes flashed: "What a good sword! I'm afraid no one in the world can stop this sword. This is an emperor's sword, it has the power to command the world."
Not only Baliming, Tang Zichen was also staring at the stunningly beautiful sword, and at Lu Cheng who was standing there.
At this moment, in the eyes of the two, Lu Cheng was an emperor who was high above everyone else, a founding emperor who unified the country and conquered all directions. He swung his sword with unparalleled momentum over the vast territory.
At this moment, even though Baliming's fist intention was "The Emperor's Star is floating, the whole world is rebelling", he could not generate any desire to resist, and it seemed that he just wanted to be a submissive citizen peacefully.
As Lu Cheng put away the momentum of the knife, Baliming stood there in a daze, speechless for a long time, as if he was in self-doubt.
However, Baliming was Baliming after all. After standing still for a long time, he finally broke free from the sword. His spirit became more vigorous, and a blazing fire was burning in his eyes: "Even in the prosperous times, we must rise up! Kings, princes, generals, and ministers, are you a bit different!"
Seeing Baliming like this, Lu Cheng nodded: "Your spirit has made further progress, and you should be not far from breaking through the void."
Balimin nodded heavily: "I feel like what I'm lacking right now is a real life-and-death battle."
"Perhaps, you will have a chance soon."
If you encounter a bottleneck in boxing and cannot make further progress, then challenge a stronger opponent, listen to his strength, and perhaps you will find your own way.
As the game says, when you have accumulated enough experience, you can level up directly by simply killing a powerful enemy of your level.
Of course, if you can't kill him, then he will die.
In the path of martial arts, if one does not have the spirit of living in the face of death, it will be difficult to reach the highest level in one's lifetime.
In today's world, Lu Cheng, GOD, and Tang Zichen should be firmly in the top three positions.
Baliming is definitely one of the top five masters. It is impossible for Lu Cheng and Tang Zichen to fight a life-and-death battle with Baliming, so they will definitely hold back when they attack.
In other words, if Baliming wants to challenge someone of a higher level, he can only challenge GOD.
Judging from the time, the assassination team organized by GOD should be ready soon.
It's time to go out again...
