With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 450 Martial Arts Theory and Techniques Breaking Limits Spirit Breath Fist Luo Tian Grand Ceremony!

Standing atop the peak, one can enjoy a panoramic view of the surrounding mountains.

The Fulong Mountain beneath our feet is also known as "Sai Wudang".

It is because although the mountain is small, its main peak is extremely high, surpassing the main peak of Wudang Mountain, hence the name.

Meng Chuan's gaze swept across the vast land below the mountain.

There was an inexplicable feeling that lingered around me.

His brow was slightly furrowed, and his mind was highly focused.

This feeling is not an epiphany, but it is even better than an epiphany!
It was as if the heavens and earth were silent, quietly conveying their emotions through the mountain breeze, as if urging him to practice his boxing.

Meng Chuan no longer hesitated.

He had a premonition that the Five Elements Spiritual Breath Fist would break through its limits today.

The five elements of the fist technique change in turn in the hands, radiating brilliance.

The five elements' energy changes unpredictably and flows endlessly throughout the body.

As his understanding of martial principles and martial will deepened, his comprehension of fist techniques became more profound.

They will no longer create a situation similar to "setting fire to the mountain".
Meng Chuan's previous understanding of boxing stance was that there was no regret in throwing a punch.

Throw every punch with all your might, unleashing the full potential of your momentum.

Now, he has advanced to the realm of "Understanding the Intent of Fist".

Previously, his understanding of martial arts principles was not high enough, and his overall understanding of boxing techniques was inadequate.

In terms of the primary and secondary relationship, it's like the martial arts technique is high above, while one can only try to control it from below.

Now, with the spiritual energy foundation of the bluestone, it is undergoing a transformation into the foundation of the black iron.

There is a tendency for mental strength and fist techniques to become an integrated whole.

With better control, boxing gradually ceases to be an external tool to be manipulated, but rather transforms into an extended physical instinct.

The five elements—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—are circulated and generated.

Combining the power of martial arts, the five elements' spiritual energy spontaneously rotates even before the fist moves.

Before the sharp, tangible energy of metal could be fully unleashed, the vitality of wood would sprout and emerge from the fingertips.

The water, with its combination of gentle and strong force, enveloped the wrist bone, while the fire had already surged up the spine to the shoulder blade;
Before the earth could even settle, Meng Chuan summoned thunder and fire, the two energies intertwining into a net beneath his feet.

Beyond the generating cycle of the five elements, this kind of "mutual restraint" is also a more advanced form of "martial arts wisdom".

Faced with a conflict of attributes, most people would choose to avoid it, but Meng Chuan chose to face the challenge head-on.

What is the purpose?

Try to utilize the principle of mutual restraint to achieve the state of "not being attached to form and leaving no trace" when practicing the Five Elements Fist.

This is the follow-up route of the Five Elements Fist that I previously comprehended on the Cliff of Contemplation in Mount Hua.

It draws upon the immense power of heaven and earth, yet leaves no trace of human intervention.

Borrowing from the inspiration of nature, yet leaving no trace.

This is a more advanced principle of Xingyi martial arts, which he is slowly trying to master.

Time passed, and Meng Chuan played the game again and again.

An improved mental foundation seems to also enhance one's endurance in boxing.

The meridians continuously supply qi and blood, so I don't feel tired at all, and I rarely need to regulate my breathing.

After an unknown amount of time, the vast earth vein energy of Fulong Mountain began to tremble with the rhythm of breathing.

The fist technique is seamless, and the mountain wind spontaneously avoids it as the fist moves in and out.

The Five Elements Spiritual Breath Fist is a method of integration and synthesis created from the basic boxing of the Five Elements ancient martial arts.

Even ordinary first-class boxing techniques are no less difficult to master than some low-level true martial arts techniques.

The Xingyi School of martial arts emphasizes the harmony between form and rhythm.

Form refers to the external posture when practicing boxing.

This includes posture, moves, body shape, and footwork.

Rhythm refers to the energy, spirit, and the unity of fist and foot movements when a martial artist practices boxing.

This is manifested in the rhythm of breathing frequency, strength, internal energy, martial arts stance, and so on.

And the martial spirit emanating from within the fist.

The combination of the two represents the sublimation of Xingyi School fighting techniques.

Fighting techniques are the application of boxing skills in actual combat.

Just knowing how to perform the moves isn't enough; you need to be able to fight and kill the Heavenly Demon!
Meng Chuan kept moving, using the Spirit Breath Fist to freely express his understanding and insights into fighting techniques.

After being improved by the [Long Sky Technique], his physique is becoming more and more like the most perfect posture when performing martial arts.

The Qi of the five elements circulates and rotates from the five internal organs. With the first punch, the "counteracting" force of the second punch comes out naturally with the intention, without the need for complicated thinking.

His thoughts guided the entire set of boxing techniques.

Lock onto the target, assess the situation, and then drive your body to generate power and regulate your Qi.

This is the principle of "using intention to guide qi and using qi to generate power".

The sun was tilted slightly.

Meng Chuan practiced his boxing in this way, and time flew by without him noticing.

While improving his proficiency in the Liver Spirit Breathing Fist, he was also studying the true essence left behind by He Zu of Mount Hua.

It can even improve one's fighting skills, which can be described as "three ways to eat one fish".

Putting aside the level of difficulty, just the mental effort required to do this is immense.

He cannot do it if his spiritual foundation is not yet strengthened.

Meng Chuan was quite moved, no wonder his master was able to create so many powerful boxing techniques when he was a martial arts master.

This is inextricably linked to his "innate divine perfection".

Even my master's vital energy is somewhat depleted; what kind of splendor would a flawless Buddhist monk possess?
Meng Chuan was envious; he hadn't expected such a big change to occur before even advancing to the Xuan Tie Foundation.

His yearning for the Immortal Tear Gold and the Buddhist Heart Sutra mantra rose to a new level. Gathering these thoughts, and as he settled into his stance, this fist technique quietly broke its limits.

As for the transformation of the Five Elements Martial Principles into something formless and without leaving a trace, as well as the sublimation of fighting techniques, one still needs to practice diligently in the future.

Today we've only mastered the practice methods; it's impossible to become a master overnight.

At the same time, before he could even look at the panel, a sudden change occurred in his body.

As the meridians pulsate, the five colors of light—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—emerge from the body.

Bones resonated like metal and stone, while flesh and blood flowed like water.

Every pore on his body was exhaling and exhaling the five-colored spiritual energy from the outside world. In an instant, the five energies merged, and his body became as clear as crystal.

Meng Chuan possessed the first Limit Breaking Body-type trait, and thought to himself:

"It seems that the characteristic of the Dharma Body type is a kind of transformation of the entire body."

The commotion and the renovations were a bit excessive; we'll have to avoid people in the future.

As the transformation of his body was completed, the radiance gradually came under control and began to converge.

The whole process was somewhat similar to the scene when an ordinary person awakens their special qualities.

Everyone knows that he already possesses the "innate body of divine physical training" trait.

If someone witnesses this again, it will be really hard to explain.
After experiencing it for a while, Meng Chuan sat cross-legged and looked at the panel:
【Trait: Five Elements Body (Intermediate)】

Effect 1: Harmony with the Five Elements; the body is transformed by a large amount of spiritual energy from the five elements, creating a "natural" Five Elements Fist genius. When practicing ordinary Five Elements Fist, comprehension is greatly enhanced; when practicing the true Five Elements Fist, comprehension is further enhanced.
Function 2: Mana Flow Connection, True Skill Five Elements Fist Break Limit, can increase the maximum mana value (spiritual power) in the body, up to 5 times;
Function 3: When the Five Elements Dharma Body, Metal Edge Dharma Body, Wood Evolution Dharma Body, Fire Blaze Dharma Body, Water Ripple Dharma Body and Earth Mountain Dharma Body are gathered, the Five Elements Dharma Wheel is condensed (to be activated).

"The Five Elements Dharma Body is indeed very powerful. Just the first function alone can greatly enhance one's comprehension."

Not to mention the two effects below, which seem to be even stronger.

Secondly, it overturned people's understanding of spiritual power.

As we all know, neither rare natural treasures nor Buddhist scriptures can directly increase the amount of spiritual power.

If one wishes to improve, one must undergo rigorous training, much like in martial arts, to become a "god."

However, this effect of the Five Elements Dharma Body shattered the conventional understanding of the world, including that of Meng Chuan.

This is the power of special qualities: turning the rotten into the miraculous, making the impossible possible.

As for the last point, it's similar to the set effects that you gradually unlock when you're grinding for the Domokkō trait.

The effects of the black membrane [earth vein energy] are self-evident, and this [Five Elements Dharma Wheel] is probably no less impressive.

No, it should be stronger.

All six traits need to be activated simultaneously, making the "Five Elements Set" far more difficult to collect than the "Domo Set."
However, he has now obtained the Five Elements Body, and the [Fire Blaze Body] is on the path to breaking the limit of the Molten Core Flame Burst Fist.

With the acquisition of the [Five Elements Affinity] effect, the liver's efficiency can be further improved.

Breaking the limits of this fist technique is not far off.

Therefore, we can now barely consider ourselves to have completed one-third of the "Five Elements Set".
Two-thirds are still missing; where are the four elements of metal, wood, water, and earth hidden?

Meng Chuan had already made some speculations about this.

That is, to follow the path that Professor Li took at the main campus of the National Southwest Associated University.

Using the Xiangwang Five Elements Fist, we can create the remaining four True Skill Fists.

Whether a prediction is correct or not still needs to be tested through practice.

It's too late tonight, it's almost dark.

The demonic path might be watching him secretly; he needs to get to Danjiangkou City as soon as possible.

Meng Chuan stopped thinking about it and got up to leave.

The next step will be the real start of the Wudang journey.

Hard skills are the core qualities; I hope everything will go as planned.
Meanwhile, inside a main hall in Wudang Mountain, there is a plaque that reads "Wandao Zongtan" (Ten Thousand Paths Altar).

Chen Tuan, the principal of Wudang Mountain's top-tier martial arts academy, stood with his hands behind his back, surrounded by three elderly Taoist priests dressed in the same dark blue short robes.

In terms of sheer aura, these individuals were not much inferior to Chen Tuan; in fact, they were all martial arts kings!

They are the top-ranking leaders of various sects on Mount Wudang.

There are Zhang Jingshi, the leader of the Songxi School; Zhang Ziyu, the leader of the Sanfeng School; and Cheng Miaochang, the leader of the Taiyi School.

There is also Chen Tuan, the Heavenly King of the Zhenwu School, who is also known as the leader of Wudang.

The Wudang School, as it is commonly known, is actually a collective term for various martial arts schools on Mount Wudang.

Songxi, Sanfeng, Taiyi, Zhenwu, and other schools are all branches of this school.

Only by gathering together and believing in Zhenwu can one be considered the [Wudang Sect].

Therefore, the Wudang Sect does not have a so-called leader.

Chen Tuan became the principal simply because of the establishment of the Special Martial Arts University.

In addition, his high moral character and prestige earned him the title of "Sect Leader".

However, Wudang does have a "General of All Paths," which is a title from the ancient martial arts era.

This refers to the overall leader and chief of Wudang Mountain. Outsiders also refer to him as the sect's patriarch or supreme elder.
Now, he is the pinnacle of martial arts in the Great Chu martial arts world, with the title of [True Martial Great Sage Xu Daoxian].

Chen Tuan's heart stirred slightly, and together with the others, he bowed to the grand master's chair at the head of the table:

"Welcome back to the mountain, Master Dao!"

There was no one on the chair, but a hearty, deep voice came from inside:

"I have returned to the mountain today because I have important matters to discuss with the sect leaders."

"Please speak, Master Dao."

"You should all know the news that came from Zhou Sheng in the Taihang Mountains."

Meanwhile, Zhang Sheng and I just talked about how the Dragon Tiger Righteous Sect intends to hold the "Luo Tian Grand Ritual" in the Taihang Mountains to suppress evil spirits.

Maoshan Shangqing, Gezao Lingbao, Magu Beidi and other Taoist sects responded one after another.

What do you all think?

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other, their faces showing thoughtful expressions.
