The years when I explored the fairyland.

Chapter 6: Martial Arts and Mysticism
Actually, to be honest, Chu Zhou knew almost nothing about the game "Xianyu". He was just tired of playing other games and wanted to change his taste.

Then, I clicked on the game page, randomly found one, downloaded it, and started playing without even starting the 'registration' process.

It's a little sloppy and a little inexplicable, but this is the fact!!!
So, let alone a deep understanding, he couldn't even figure out the most basic game background and mission mode.

The only thing I know is that this game may be a fairy-tale and cultivation game.

After all, I was looking for it in this area at the time, and when I look at the name again, it has that flavor.

But now?

Chu Zhou really regretted it. He didn't know how to use his golden finger, which made him feel very miserable.

However, he still made an attempt and probed his consciousness into the jade token, hoping to find something?
Or, it would be fine to enter the dream of yesterday again!

However, he did not enter the dream. The jade token seemed to have a faint fluctuation that prevented his investigation. Only a piece of information flowed out from it and reflected in Chu Zhou's heart.

[Main Mission 1: Founding a new sect!!!]

[Task Description: Found a sect, gain recognition from at least one city, and have a certain influence.]

[Task Reward: 18 hours of lessons, you can enter the Reception Hall again and learn the basic chapter of "Spirit Son Theory".]

[Mission penalty: deprivation of game qualification! ]

……

At this moment, Chu Zhou was confused. He sat cross-legged on the cushion, his body stiff, and he didn't react for a long time.

"Main quest, they actually gave me a main quest?"

"This time travel has really been turned into a game?"

After a long pause, Chu Zhou finally reacted. At some point in his previous life, he had also read quite a few novels.

Therefore, although the main quest that jumped out made him feel a little uncomfortable, he could still accept this setting.

Then, without considering whether it is reasonable, we analyze the useful information word by word.

First of all, last night’s dream was real!
The power from the game "Xianyu" allowed him to see a scene that looked like heaven.

So, since the power of games can radiate into reality, we can consider whether the knowledge learned in dreams and the performance of the white-haired immortal can be used in reality?
Secondly, it is very interesting to look at the 'mission rewards'.

It is obvious that you cannot go to the Reception Hall whenever you want. You have to complete a mission before you can go there.

The so-called eighteen lessons are probably what happened last night, eighteen times again.

It’s the “Spirit Theory”, I wonder what it is?
Judging from the name, it doesn't sound like a method of cultivation or a secret technique. Instead, it seems like some unique academic theory!

As for mission failure, being disqualified from playing the game...

Chu Zhou was a little confused, mainly because he didn't know what the standard for the so-called "mission failure" was?
There is no specific time limit for this task. If it takes him thirty or forty years to complete it, I wonder if it will count?
Also, depriving the game qualification means simply uninstalling the game, and the cheat code is gone?

Or is his life gone too?
It doesn't seem to be explained clearly.

And to be honest, the task itself is quite vague.

'Establishing a school of thought', this requirement is quite clear, and Chu Zhou has an inherent advantage.

Xuanzhen Temple can be regarded as a sect. After the death of Taoist Xuanzhen, he became the most legitimate and legal successor.

There was no other way. There were only three disciples in total, and two little Taoist boys aged twelve or thirteen. Apart from him, who was considered an adult, no one else was qualified.

However, the second half, "recognition by a city has a certain influence" is difficult to define.

The main thing is that these terms are not rigorous.

When it comes to Chu Zhou, there is no specific measurement. How do you know when the task is completed?

However, after thinking for a long time and having a lot of confusion, Chu Zhou was still able to prioritize things.

He put all the "doubts" aside and looked at the part that could be used now, and how to solve his dilemma?

The available content is quite limited...

After changing his posture again and finding a more comfortable state, Chu Zhou finally looked at the old books and animal skins in front of him.

After looking around for a while and hesitating a little, he still picked up the old book.

When he opened the book again, Chu Zhou's knowledge did not increase much, but the content of "The Angry Dragon Turning the River" was no longer obscure, but became easy to understand.

No, it is not just as simple as being easy to understand, but a more accurate statement is that it is full of mistakes and omissions!
That’s right, it’s full of mistakes and omissions!
From the perspective of this world, this middle-grade martial art is quite impressive. Not only is it comprehensive, but it also has the secret method of strengthening the internal organs. It is an excellent choice to open the door to martial arts.

But from the perspective of the White-haired Immortal, this martial art is just so-so, and even the path it takes is biased.

As for Chu Zhou’s own opinion?
He has a shitty opinion!
No matter who it is, he is a layman and doesn't even have much knowledge of the basics, so how can he evaluate it?

After a little thought, Chu Zhou looked at the dark sky outside the window and made a decision.

He stood up without hesitation and went to his master's room through the side door.

He walked quickly and took out a bucket of lamp oil when he passed a side room.

After entering the room and walking down the stairs into the underground secret room, he first added a lot of lamp oil to the lamps on the wall, and then lit the oil lamp on the desk.

When the secret room was bright again, he was already standing in front of the bookshelf. Here, there were five layers of mahogany bookshelves attached to the wall, filled with various books.

Because they are all laid flat, you have to pick them up one by one and open them to see the specific contents.

Fortunately, there are clear markings on the bookshelf, and the "medical skills" section occupies the largest area, more than half of the bookshelf, all of which are various medical books and various materials left by Taoist Xuanzhen.

Then there are the "Miscellaneous Books" and "Martial Arts" sections, which take up a small half, and these are what Chu Zhou is looking for.

He still put on the deerskin gloves and took the few martial arts books. However, after flipping through them briefly, he couldn't help shaking his head.

The martial arts techniques here are really of inferior quality, such as "Eagle Claw Hand", "Great Strength Kung Fu", "Flying on the Grass", "Mandarin Duck Legs" and other ordinary stuff. There are not many that can combine "breathing method", "stance training" and other complete training methods.

The only low-grade martial art, "Iron Sand Palm", is still missing the most important supporting prescription.

Without this prescription, the brutal training method of "Iron Sand Palm" would eventually ruin oneself.

After a quick look, Chu Zhou already had an idea in his mind. The only purpose of placing these martial arts secret books here was to highlight the power of "The Angry Dragon Flipping the River Hand".

However, after browsing the "Miscellaneous Books" for a long time, Chu Zhou gained a lot.

Especially in a travelogue written by a martial arts master, he saw many descriptions about skills, realms, breakthroughs and powers, which gave him a better understanding of the martial arts in this world.

In fact, this world also emphasizes "training muscles, bones and skin externally, and training breath internally".
The only difference is that it is not divided into 'external' and 'internal', but from the outside to the inside, first temper the body, and when it is strong to a certain degree, then take the path of internal Qi circulation through the meridians.

A true martial arts master is naturally very powerful, with the strength to destroy rivers and break mountains. It is not an exaggeration to praise him as a "land immortal".

But they were the top group, legendary figures.

Most martial arts masters are strong enough to withstand several thousand pounds of force. They can wear three layers of heavy armor, hold spears in hand, charge into the battlefield, kill their enemies in sevens and sevens, behead generals and seize flags.

Besides martial arts, there are also secret techniques.

Esoteric techniques, also known as unusual techniques, are a supplement to martial arts. They are often unsystematic and each has its own characteristics.

If you practice it well and use it well, it will have all kinds of magical effects.

The travel notes recorded several kinds of strange skills, which were what the author saw and heard during his travels, including the ability to fold paper and turn it into a butterfly, gracefully dance, and have the ability to bewitch people.

With the art of summoning the wind, one can call upon a gust of wind. Combined with the method of lightening the body and lifting it up, one can go two or three miles away at an extremely fast speed.

There is also the technique of raising Gu, which can be carefully cultivated, turned into insect eggs, and planted in the heart, which can then control the life and death of a person.

That’s right, the “Ghost Technique” left by Taoist Xuanzhen is one of these secret techniques.

However, the reason why the secret technique is called "secret" is because it is hidden and cannot be revealed to outsiders.

Moreover, because there is no system, each has its own method of practice, and what they need and use are also different.

The most important thing is that most of the secret arts require some kind of sacrifice. After a long time, they will either harm your body and mind, or cause a loss of energy and blood, which will affect your lifespan. If you are not careful, you will become a short-lived ghost.

Taoist Xuanzhen is a typical example in this regard!

I raised a ghost and gained a lot from it, but I spent the rest of my life trying to deal with its side effects.

After finishing a travelogue, Chu Zhou flipped through other miscellaneous books, almost selectively reading some of the key contents.

Gradually, the martial arts and secret arts of this world took shape in his mind.

At this time, he took out the old books and animal skins, spread them on the table, took out paper and pen, closed his eyes slightly to concentrate, and opened his eyes again.

He still opened "The Angry Dragon Turns the River" first, but this time, when Chu Zhou read it again, the thoughts in his mind had turned into three little men.

The first villain uses the perspective of this world to understand the secrets of this technique.

The second villain looks at the shortcomings of this technique from the perspective of the white-haired immortal.

As for the third villain, that is Chu Zhou himself, he will judge the pros and cons and right and wrong. If possible, it would be best if he could propose some ways to improve it.

This time, after studying it again, Chu Zhou really noticed the difference.

According to the martial arts of this world, at the beginning of practice, one must strengthen the Qi and blood, and condense the strength. Once this is passed, one will use the Qi and blood and the strength to temper the four levels of the human body: tendons, flesh, skin, and bones.

Because Qi, blood and strength all circulate inside the body and have their own circulation system, so martial arts must start with "training the tendons".

There is a saying that goes, "If the tendons grow an inch, the strength will increase by ten points, and the life span will increase by ten years." This is what it means to benefit from "training the tendons."

As for advanced martial arts, it is a combination of training methods and standing meditation, supplemented by powerful medicine, which can stretch the body's major tendons.

Later, after you have successfully trained your tendons, you can continue to train your flesh, skin, and bones!

Only if you pass these four levels, you will be considered a master in martial arts and a master in a place like Baisha City. It will be more than enough to pass the examination to become a "martial arts scholar".

If one is sharp in killing, skilled in archery and horse riding, and well versed in battle tactics, it is possible for him to pass the examination and become a "military candidate".

According to the rules of this world, anyone who has reached this point has already escaped from the bottom of society and is free from the worries of taxation and corvee labor.

As for what comes later, there are naturally other realms such as training the internal organs, opening up the meridians, washing the marrow and exchanging blood, but that is really not a level that ordinary warriors can reach.

However, in the eyes of the White-haired Immortal, all of the above can be described in four words - all fallacies!
　It is tentatively planned to update twice a day, around 6pm!
