Chapter 32: Refining Seven Stars with the Will Furnace

"Senior, this is not taught in school..."

The brief silence did not allow Yue Hanzhang to think too much, so he simply told the truth.

And when Yue Hanzhang finished speaking, the woman at the entrance of the alley laughed sneerfully in a very decisive and cold voice.

"Pedant! Conservative! Obtuse!"

The crazy woman's voice was full of disdain.

But to Yue Hanzhang, he felt that the woman's sneer was not directed at the school, but a sharp criticism of Qin Linhui.

Moreover, her voice was filled with an inexplicable sense of satisfaction, as if she had suddenly discovered some of her own advantages.

Perhaps the change in mood was too obvious and drastic.

The woman paused for a moment, and when she spoke again, she returned to her initial coldness.

The emotions that erupted in the few sentences just now were more like an illusion brought about by a person's evil temperament.

"The soul-shaking madness that you have been nurturing in your heart has not yet grown stronger and is only the embryonic form of your mind.

I watched your boxing stance, and I could see many details from your boxing stance that combines form and spirit.

You are just recalling a certain memory or experience, recalling the physical and mental state at that moment in the memory, right or not? "

This is the secret of Yue Hanzhang’s ability to warm up the Qi and blood.

So he nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes."

"Then, someone must have told you that your use of skills may very well become a transitional method between the unity of body and spirit and the will of martial arts, right?
The body and the spirit become one, and using the Nine Palaces as a furnace, one can refine all kinds of martial arts and develop the will of martial arts.

Among them, the boxing spirit inherent in various martial arts is the various precious medicines and spiritual materials in the furnace of qi and blood.

Since the metaphor is used as refining an elixir in a furnace, the concentration of the martial arts will also requires attention to the "ruler, ministers, assistants and messengers".

These martial arts and boxing ideas are not the main thing, they are just condiments. The real main thing is the mind and will that has been tempered in the process of practicing martial arts.

After all, people cannot become slaves to boxing or prisoners of martial arts, but must control everything with their own spirit!
And this breath of soul-shaking madness that you have cultivated is the prototype of your martial arts mindset, and is the already amazing 'cultivation base'."

Only after hearing this did Yue Hanzhang for the first time hear the profound insights and sharp points in this man's crazy talk.

“This is where the interesting thing about spiritual practice lies. Some of the confused actions you took when you were ignorant in the past will determine the level of your life achievements long after.

Sometimes, a decision itself is better than thousands of days of hard work. Some decisions and missed opportunities cannot be made up for even if you work hard for the rest of your life.

The development of the breath in your heart determines the state of your mind; the state of your mind determines the specific state of your martial arts will; and different martial arts wills mean what kind of path of cultivation you will embark on when you make your final leap!
Everything you have in the future depends on this moment. Your choice will affect your entire body.

As your practice deepens, your breath will change sooner or later. So how will the pictures in your memory continue to change?

Did you crystallize the image of Xiao Hei during the process of being shocked? You will often be with Xiao Hei, observing the charm of the shadow tiger and leopard. If you want to take this path, almost no one has more advantages than you.

If you can refine this form into your boxing skills, and in your subsequent martial arts practice, refine more forms of beasts and blend them into one, then your martial arts will will be wild and overbearing, and your strength will be unparalleled!"

When hearing this, what came to Yue Hanzhang's mind was Qin Linhui's figure walking with the strength of a bear.

Everything becomes intuitive and concrete because of this.

This is not a superficial metaphor, but Yue Hanzhang really saw the charm of the bear in him.

Perhaps this is the choice of martial arts will that the woman in front of me is talking about.

“But there is another way, which is for you to abandon the form of the monster that you can observe up close, and instead continue to dig deeper into the soul-shaking emotions in your memory.

Abandon all tangible concepts! Further refine the strong and extreme emotions and refine them into a certain artistic conception!
From now on, use this state of mind to penetrate your mind, absorb all kinds of boxing intentions, and become the will of martial arts! "

When he heard this again, Yue Hanzhang couldn't help but look at the woman in front of him.

Perhaps she is the being who embodies such a martial arts will.

Yue Hanzhang also went a step further and gained a deeper and clearer understanding of these two different martial arts wills.

This way of practicing and distinguishing the will of martial arts is very similar to the distinction between form and intention in the understanding of traditional martial arts boxing in previous lives.

One focuses on the external way of exerting force, while the other focuses on the internal pursuit of artistic conception.

"These two different martial arts wills naturally mean that they will continue to follow different paths of extraordinary Taoism in the future. It is precisely because of this that the two largest schools in the field of extraordinary Taoism have been formed. In the field of martial arts, there is no difference between the two. The school that emphasizes the form of monsters even has more advantages in punching and kicking.

But people should look at the long term. Do you want to be a warrior all your life?

The purpose of practicing martial arts is to carry the path of extraordinary Taoism. Do you think it is easier for a barbarian who refines his qi and blood into his mind to master Taoism? Or is it easier for a person who sharpens his mind to a high level to master Taoism?"

For a moment, Yue Hanzhang did not answer, but he could hear the simple truth hidden in the woman's words, and he knew that she already had a plan.

You should take a long-term view and choose the path that will bring you the best future achievements!
Martial arts itself is not the goal, but a channel to a higher level.

This was the first time that Yue Hanzhang had such a concept deeply imprinted in his mind.

As if she had seen Yue Hanzhang's intention, the woman's voice once again brought out some proud emotional fluctuations.

"Humph! If I were your teacher, the moment I saw this breath in your heart, I would point out the two paths in front of you and explain clearly the advantages and disadvantages of each.

The Taoist Alliance claims to educate all living beings, but it is secretive about such key points and tricks. It claims that it wants to let students express their nature and make natural choices. In fact, it is just because once the Tao has advantages and disadvantages, who would be willing to practice the bad one instead of the good one?
But there are many things in this world that have to be done by "barbarians", which is why there is such a natural excuse. How come the skills that you have worked so hard to acquire are incompatible with your destiny?

Pedantic! Conservative! Obtuse! "

I can feel it. This is the truth, but the woman in front of me is really taking the opportunity to throw dirty water on Qin Linhui.

Yue Hanzhang would not listen to one side of the story, but he was not stupid enough to explain anything to the person in front of him.

Not getting the response she wanted, the woman paused, seeming to be a little bored.

"Forget it. Since you will be seeing Xiao Hei frequently in the future, it is better to make this clear to you first, so as not to hinder your future.

Now that I have talked about things far away, I will talk to you about things near.

Once you have practiced a set of boxing forms, your foundation will be solid. The Nine Palaces are the basis of this martial art, and the twenty-seven changes are just beautiful patterns on the heavy cauldron.

If you can circulate Qi throughout your body with just a breath, then training your Qi and blood in the future will only be a matter of time and effort. If you can perform the complete nine palms, do you still need to spend much brainpower on the remaining eighteen variations?
So from this moment on, you can focus your energy on subsequent practice, and you can start trying to learn other boxing techniques as well.

I don't want you to refine it in the 'furnace' right now, but it would save time if you prepare the precious medicinal materials while the fire is burning, right?
Fight for the first place in martial arts and practice! It's not about a moment, but about every step!

Sometimes, speed is the biggest advantage in the world!

As for what martial arts to learn, it is best to just separate the "Nine Palaces Mixed Origin Palm" into its parts.

In terms of footwork, it is nothing more than close and far. For the close one, it is how to keep your feet rooted while turning and jerking; for the far one, it is how to lift your body to chase or retreat.

Therefore, it is best to learn one of each of these two types of body-movement martial arts first.

In terms of palm techniques and fist techniques, slapping, hitting the throat, lifting the chin and poking the eyes, no matter what moves you use, it is nothing more than using three places: the fingertips, the palm, and the base of the palm.

The most flexible fingertips are the snake-shaped palms; the heaviest palms are the bear-shaped palms; the most ferocious palm bases are the tiger-shaped palms.

Furthermore, I will add a complete set of boxing techniques and complete elbow techniques. You must know that before a person throws out a palm, it is a fist! After the palm is thrown out, when it is retracted, it is an elbow!
Punches are soft, palms are hard, and elbows are deadly!
This is the principle of 'Refine Seven Stars in the Furnace'. First, refine these seven martial arts, and then the framework of monarch, ministers, assistants and messengers will be set up. No matter how many martial arts and boxing techniques you practice later to supplement them, they are all within the framework. No matter how things change, they remain essentially the same!
Do you understand what I am saying?"

Suddenly it became clear! Suddenly it became clear!
At this moment, Yue Hanzhang finally stepped out of the teaching scope that the Taoist Alliance had deliberately concealed, and the future of martial arts practice became clear to him.

"Understood!"

"Now that you understand, you have to practice! Don't make me feel that it's all in vain for a person like me to be personally instructed by you.

If you can understand and comprehend the truth behind it, you will know that I am teaching you and not harming you.

So, next time we meet, I want to see that you have put in some effort.

If not, I'll break your legs!"

Well, just when I felt a little grateful, I heard such a threatening remark.

But perhaps because he was already familiar with this person's speaking style, Yue Hanzhang did not feel any negative emotions in his heart.

"I know, but... I am being rude, but I still don't know how to address you as a senior."

Hearing this, the voice of the person hidden in the mist suddenly became as ethereal and distant as the moonlight in the sky.

"With your current achievements, you are not worthy of hearing my name, but if you must ask for a title, you can call me - Madam Wei."
