Chapter 10 The true meaning
At this point, Qin Linhui revealed a firm smile that showed "I expected this".

"You were so absorbed in your punches yesterday, I think you must have felt the warmth of the embryonic form of the Qi and blood power nourishing your body?"

Hearing this, Yue Hanzhang nodded repeatedly.

And Qin Linhui continued to ask.

"So what about now? Can you still feel the presence of those warm currents?"

A whole night had passed, and the warmth accumulated from yesterday's martial arts practice had long since disappeared. Facing Qin Linhui's question, Yue Hanzhang shook his head.

"That's it. The reason why that warm current no longer exists is that part of it has transformed into the power to nourish your body and has been reintegrated into your body in the form of tempering your Qi and blood."

"But a large part of it actually disappears during your sleep, as your mind drifts into dreams, your breathing drives you, and the heat from your body dissipates."

"That's why the first step in martial arts training is to wrap your whole strength with comprehensive meaning after you have mastered the complete fist and palm techniques as a whole."

"Only in this way can the energy of qi and blood be prevented from leaking out, and can it be accumulated while being condensed. This is the essence of martial arts improvement!"

"After all, you are a person who has embarked on the path of cultivation. You can't just look at your feet, you also have to keep an eye on the road ahead."

"Martial arts is the beginning of cultivation, but it is not the whole of cultivation. It is the most solid foundation of the extraordinary path. But precisely because it is to carry the extraordinary path, the power of qi and blood is your first priority in practicing martial arts!"

"Without this, everything is just a castle in the air. No matter how well you practice martial arts, can you be a martial artist for the rest of your life?"

Qin Linhui's words made Yue Hanzhang fall into a long silence, and his mind was shaken.

Yue Hanzhang suddenly realized that the mechanical brain he possessed was not omnipotent at the moment.

What its magic has achieved is to consolidate the road under your feet to the extreme, but to truly see the road ahead, you still need the rich accumulation of the Taoist Alliance, the pioneers, and the guidance of your teachers.

Yue Hanzhang even had a feeling of fear as he had almost made a mistake.

“So we need to change our mindset. We should not break down the Nine Palaces Primordial Palm into separate palms to practice. We should view it as a complete whole!”

"Some changes, when applied to a single palm, may be in line with the essence of your own form and spirit, but when this palm is applied to the whole fist technique, it conflicts with some of the other palms in terms of changes."

"The path of martial arts is very profound. It is difficult to achieve the ultimate in harmony between form and spirit. There is always a better harmony than harmony. What we should pursue in practice is not such an illusory extreme, but the perfect harmony between the whole."

“So, when you enter the martial arts, you must first master the comprehensiveness of boxing techniques, and then, based on this comprehensiveness, pursue appropriate changes in form and spirit.”

Having said that, Qin Linhui paused suddenly, and then he looked at Yue Hanzhang deeply.

"Of course, with your current talent and ability, I will simply give you a deeper explanation of the path of martial arts cultivation, so that you don't have to ask me to correct you every few days because your progress is too rapid."

"I'm not afraid of trouble, but I'm afraid that one day I won't have time to say a few words and you'll go astray."

"Putting the changes in boxing techniques to the back as much as possible is actually related to the follow-up of martial arts training."

"You know that there are nine levels of martial arts practice. The level of concentration is just the amount of energy and blood that is accumulated."

"But if you want to carry the extraordinary path, it is far from enough to just accumulate the energy and blood. You need to condense the meaning of various boxing techniques and martial arts at the peak of the ninth level of the martial arts path and transform them into the will of martial arts!"

"From the perspective of a longer-term extraordinary cultivation path, this martial arts will is the prototype and seed of the Tao. Only with it can one determine what Tao is suitable for one's own body and spirit." "So what is being refined in the comprehensive cauldron condensed by the fist frame is not only the power of Qi and blood, but also the integration of various martial arts!"

"And the integration of these various martial arts is actually closely related to the changes in the basic boxing stance that became the cauldron. The meanings of these martial arts were originally integrated through the changes in the boxing stance itself, becoming a whole."

"Speaking of which, Yue Hanzhang, do you think the Nine Palaces Primordial Palm is useful in fighting?"

Hearing Qin Linhui's question, Yue Hanzhang really thought about it for a while and finally shook his head.

“I don’t think it’s useful.”

Qin Linhui grinned.

"That's right, it's not useful. Seventeen or eighteen years old is the age when people tend to get carried away easily. They don't care about the strength of their blows. I teach you palm techniques to train your martial arts, not to let you kill people with your blows."

"The Nine Palace Step is very comprehensive, but it is also because it is too comprehensive that a beginner cannot catch up with anyone unless they fight in close combat. And this straight palm strike focuses on the skill of exerting force. Unless you are not stupid enough to approach it, it is difficult to hit anyone easily."

"But martial arts training cannot just be about practicing hard. Martial arts, martial arts. If you can't fight with others, what kind of martial arts is it?"

"Without the surging killing intent and the strong will of the mind, what kind of extraordinary Taoism can the refined martial arts will carry?"

“Once you have mastered the boxing stance, once you are able to use the power of Qi and blood to steadily control your mind and the murderous intent in your boxing, once you have integrated all kinds of martial arts…”

"I can take several steps at once, and with one foot I can step on someone's feet, hook their heels, or hit their knees..."

"This palm strike can be varied. If you reach down, it will grab the crotch and grab the crotch. If you reach up, it will hit the abdomen. If you hit the kidneys from the side, it will hit the throat, lift the chin, poke the eyes, and hit the top of the head..."

"He leaps like a tiger, stomps the ground like an elephant, and beats his fists like a mad ape..."

"These are all tactics that can hurt or even kill people!"

"The prerequisite is to control the murderous intent in the boxing with comprehensive Qi and blood power and mind. Only when you control the murderous intent in the boxing, and not let the murderous intent control your mind, can you refine the true meaning of martial arts after passing the ninth level!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Linhui suddenly took a step forward!
The previous moment, Qin Linhui and Yue Hanzhang were standing in the middle of the martial arts training room, but when he took a step, he was standing at the edge of the martial arts training room like a gust of wind.

Swish-!
It is said that boxing is spiritual. At this moment, Qin Linhui stepped forward and threw out a palm. In Yue Hanzhang's eyes, this punch was not only the unity of Qin Linhui's form and spirit, but the murderous intent in the boxing had also penetrated into his own mind!

It was no longer a matter of whether it looked like or not. At this moment, Yue Hanzhang really felt that he was hallucinating. He saw the bear shaking its body and then slapping the top of his head from top to bottom.

"Can you hit me with this palm?!"

Well, finally, Teacher Qin got to show off again.

Yue Hanzhang nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, teacher, that's great!"

As soon as he finished speaking, before Qin Linhui and Yue Hanzhang could say anything else, the doorbell of the martial arts training room suddenly rang.
