With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 456 Effortless Tai Chi Thirteen Shows Off His Skills to Uncle-Master Zhao!
After experiencing it for the past few days, Meng Chuan punched Daoist Zhao Huanzhen, kicked the old Wudang Daoist, and was invincible among the two limitless opponents.

His reputation has spread far and wide; everyone knows that a ruthless person has come to Wudang Mountain.

But every day, people still "disagree" and come to him to challenge him to a duel.

"The Taoist priest is too attached to appearances."

Meng Chuan was quite moved, truly feeling that this place was quite nice, with a martial arts atmosphere even stronger than that of the United University.

After practicing boxing every day, I would then spar in real combat.

Not only has my boxing proficiency increased dramatically, but I've also been able to digest the fighting techniques I've learned while practicing, which is really great.
Gradually, Meng Chuan became more and more accustomed to Wudang, and even found the hard stone bed comfortable.

Most importantly, before you take action now.

He also learned to chant "May the Heavenly Venerable bestow boundless blessings" to give himself a mystical boost, then rolled up his sleeves and got to work.
In the blink of an eye, ten days have passed.

The practice of boxing techniques and core methods never stopped, and Meng Chuan's blood and qi became increasingly powerful, steadily progressing towards eight thousand points.

Perhaps it's related to the environment of Wudang Mountain, but after practicing boxing day and night, his understanding of the Five Elements Martial Arts has reached a level where he is no longer attached to form or leave any trace, and is now only a thin layer of paper separating him from reality.

At the same time, he didn't miss his physical training sessions on the mountain.

Three days ago, Wei Tuo carried the mountain and mastered the skill, achieving the state of "lifting heavy objects with ease".

In this way, his arms were once again given a tremendous force.

Rolling up Uncle Zhao's thousand-pound scroll, I can make four or five in one go, which is barely usable.

The heavy object suspended by Uncle Zhao's thousand-pound scroll was forged from [magic iron].

Meng Chuan remembered this material, and if he wanted to forge a True Martial Artifact in the future, he would use this Demon Nest Iron Ore as the main material.

The saying "one force can overcome ten techniques" is not just empty talk.

To acquire an extremely heavy Zhenwu weapon would allow one to better utilize their strength advantage.

On this day, the sun was setting in the evening.

Meng Chuan was practicing his boxing in the courtyard, trying to trigger the dawn and dusk enlightenment, while Wang Ye was also practicing martial arts nearby.

The trigger failed. While he was adjusting his breathing, he noticed that the other person was still the same as before, practicing Tai Chi.

Before practicing their boxing, these Wudang Taoist priests would first warm up with a set of the "Thirteen Forms of Tai Chi".

For them, this style of boxing is unique to the Wudang people, known as the "Guoyiquan" (National Righteousness Boxing).

During a break from meditating, Meng Chuan sat cross-legged on a blue stone in the courtyard.

While practicing his Qi Observation Technique, he also observed Daoist Wang Ye practicing his boxing.

He's watched it several times in the past few days; just by watching it, he's almost learned the style of boxing.
Starting stance, ball-holding stance, single-push stance
It contains the internal organs' energy regulation pathways, and externally it involves the five-step transition of Yin and Yang.

After Wang Ye finished his thirteen sets of movements and was about to wrap up, he suddenly saw Meng Chuan start moving as well, and he was extremely surprised:
"Holy crap, when did Lao Meng learn Tai Chi?"

Meng Chuan leaped down from the bluestone, his Taoist robe billowing in the wind.

After standing still, he suddenly pressed a breath into his dantian, then stirred up a gust of wind and leaped up, his momentum as if he were grasping the clouds of the heavens.

This is Meng Chuan's understanding of the first set of "starting posture" movements in the Thirteen Forms of Tai Chi.

Imagine you're practicing "Cannon Fist," using it as the "opening cannon" to strike first and seize the initiative!
The next movement involves holding the ball, lowering the shoulders and elbows, which slows down the motion.

If one move fails to achieve its intended effect, one should withdraw and adopt a defensive posture, while maintaining a well-organized offense and defense.

As the energy flows, the left palm probes out in a "single push" stance, while the right palm slowly pushes forward as if pushing away clouds and waves.

A large swath of air, propelled by this palm strike, wailed and roared, drifting far into the distance.

Seeing this, Wang Ye couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement. As expected of the "Mountain-Moving Warrior," his strength was truly immense!

Although Meng Chuan's punches and kicks were a bit clumsy, the noise he made was truly terrifying.

If that palm strike had landed on me, I would have been utterly destroyed.
"Mountain-Moving Warrior" is the new nickname given to Meng Chuanqi by the members of the Wudang Seeking the Dao group.

It alludes to his immense strength, making him seem like a powerful guardian under a celestial being, tasked with capturing people and moving magical treasures.

However, Meng Chuan did not like this title; for people of the Daoist sect, it was an honor.

But personally, he doesn't believe in these things, nor does he like being someone else's subordinate.

Coming to his senses, he continued to mentally rehearse the steps of the thirteen forms of Tai Chi.

The "cloud hand gesture" is initiated by the waist and hips, with the arms circling as if spreading clouds and rain.

With a wild horse parting its mane and spreading its arms, as if parting a territory and galloping away, the power is fully penetrated to the fingertips and bursts forth.

After completing the thirteen forms, gather your energy and return to your origin when finishing the posture.

It felt as if the "Kidney Dan" in my body had been activated, with a low buzzing sound emanating from my lower dantian. After standing still, it felt as if my entire body was open up, and I felt completely comfortable.

No wonder Wudang people always practice a basic Tai Chi routine before training in martial arts.

It can indeed "harmonize internal energy and loosen muscles and bones," making it easier to practice boxing later.

Ignoring the surprise of Daoist Wang Ye beside him, he heard a notification sound coming from the panel.

Upon closer inspection, this third-rate boxing technique had been successfully incorporated into the manual.
[Tai Chi Thirteen Forms: Proficient (80%), awaiting further improvement]

[Limit Breaking Trait: Harmony (Beginner)]

Not only did they successfully get started, but they even reached a level of proficiency close to mastery in just one go.

This is the most basic Tai Chi, although Meng Chuan had never learned any Tai Chi boxing techniques.

However, Xingyi Quan and Bajiquan are inseparable, and his Five Elements Fist and Bajiquan have very high martial arts principles.

In addition, given the superior physical attributes of the individual, this is how it should be.

Although there is no time for the time being, I will switch to studying other styles of boxing.

However, the quality of "being tactful" did interest Meng Chuan.

"Could harmony enhance the coordination between different boxing styles, thus facilitating a better integration of various boxing techniques?"

Incorporating the essence of Tai Chi:
"Based on the principle of mutual generation of Yin and Yang, the doctrine of the mean is hidden in the balance of strength and gentleness, and the transformation between emptiness and fullness."

Taking both factors into account, Meng Chuan felt that this guess was quite likely.

"The Spirit Breath Fist has already broken its limit, and the other two Five Elements Complete Techniques are also about to break their limits."

Before attempting to fully integrate with the Five Elements Fist, it's a good time to test the limits of [Harmony] first. Although the Earth-Bearing Four Symbols Fist and the Mutual Generation and Restraint Silk-Entangling Hand are second-rate fist techniques, their difficulty in cultivation is no less than that of some first-rate ones.

This is also one of the reasons why these two methods, which encompass all five elements, are considered "unpopular" Five Elements Fist techniques.

Meng Chuan glanced at the proficiency level on the panel and estimated that it would take about another month before he could break through to the limit.

After regaining his senses, he practiced for another hour without stopping, mastering the Thirteen Forms of Tai Chi.

Wang Ye was so engrossed in watching that he even forgot to practice his boxing.

I've been admiring Lao Meng's completely different style from his usual powerful and explosive boxing moves.

The more he looked, the more he couldn't help but sigh:
"Not only is his physical talent developed, but his physique and comprehension are also genuine. I'm so envious."

During his practice, Meng Chuan's posture became increasingly similar to the principles of Tai Chi.

Emphasis should be placed on guiding the flow of Qi (vital energy), rather than simply relying on brute force to throw bricks.

The power brought by breaking through the barrier of Wei Tuo carrying the mountain was also completely digested through practicing Tai Chi.

We played for another hour or so, and the game went better and better.

Meng Chuan stopped when he saw that the proficiency level had reached mastery (30%).

I recently added this method to my daily routine. If I practice diligently, breaking through the limit will only take about ten days.

That day and night.

Wang Ye was a big mouth, and he told his master about Meng Chuanxi's "astoundingly beautiful" Tai Chi posture.

At Zhao Shousui's home.

Seeing Meng Chuan fight to the side, Zhao Shousui was also very surprised.

Meng Chuan's Tai Chi movements were better than some of the young Taoist priests from Wudang. He must have just learned it.

This kid is incredibly skilled; it's like he's got a cheat code.
"Are there really martial arts geniuses in the world?"

Zhao Shousui looked thoughtful, then beckoned to Meng Chuandao:
"Sit down, take a break and have some water before you start. It will help improve your blood circulation."

As a loyal follower of Luo Guanyun's pigeons, Uncle Zhao naturally also enjoys drinking.

Two Taoist priests and a strongman sat at a stone table under the moonlight.
Wang Ye poured the wine, explaining with a smile:

"Lao Meng, this is our Wudang's unique Kung Fu Wine, which is brewed with ginseng, lingzhi and other medicinal herbs."

Long-term consumption can strengthen the body. In the ancient martial arts era, even the emperor would have to go up the mountain to beg us for a drink.

Meng Lishi and the two men raised their cups and smacked their lips, saying:

"Not bad, this is good wine."

After taking a bite, it felt like a small heater had been placed in my stomach, and the heat spread to every part of my body.

Who says Taoist priests don't enjoy life?
Wang Ye laughed:

"It's a pity you can't carry them, otherwise I would have sent you a dozen or twenty jars, so you can drink them slowly when you get back."

Upon hearing this, Meng Chuan perked up.

Of course, we have to take the good wine back and share it with the group of "drunkards" on Mount Li.
"Okay, get it ready for me first, I'll use my storage token to take it."

"No, you have a storage artifact?!"

"It was a gift from my master, and it will be mailed over soon."

"Okay, I'll fill it up for you."

A treasure for storage, something so many people dream of.

Upon hearing that Meng Chuan was a gift from his master, Wang Ye couldn't help but glance at Zhao Shousui.
"Ahem, by the way, Meng Chuan, how is your master doing lately?"

Upon noticing his apprentice's gaze, Zhao Shousui quickly changed the subject.
"pretty good."

"Sigh, with Lao Luo's talent, he should have reached the Grandmaster realm even earlier than me."

"It's all because of his family's inherited thunder magic that he's been dragged down, and so are you; your future won't be easy either."

Zhao Shousui shook his head, as if sighing.

After saying this, the three of them drank their wine in one gulp.

Meng Chuan put down his wine bowl, smiled, and said nothing.

The problem with "Thunder Magic" can be solved by myself.

It is my duty to pave the way for my master.

In other words, if Master were to collect all the chapters on the Dao Heart Seed Demon, he could be said to have turned misfortune into blessing.

After downing two jars, neither of them could shake off the effects of the alcohol or get into a drunken frenzy.

Zhao Shousui was also getting excited and wanted to give Meng Chuan some pointers on his hard skills.

Meng Chuan immediately stood up to demonstrate.

After all, Uncle Zhao, whose title is "Mountain-Moving Taoist," is also a master who is proficient in external martial arts techniques.

With a slight jolt, all the powerful skills and rare auras that could only be displayed when one had practiced them to a high level flowed and manifested on his body.

Red, green, purple, gold, black, and other colors of light pollution spread all over the body.

In the darkness, Meng Chuan was completely enveloped in a large sphere of light, making him impossible to discern as a human.
"Wow."

Upon seeing this, Wang Ye's wine bowl immediately fell to the ground and shattered.

He was stunned. Was this even human?

No wonder Lao Meng's special trait is called the "Hard Body Training," it's truly amazing.
Zhao Shousui, standing to the side, also looked at Meng Chuan with a face full of shock.

With so many hard skills practiced to this level, how can you manage to keep up with all that work?
Meng Chuan regulated his Qi in his chest and began practicing.

Zhao Shousui, who was giving pointers from the side, felt his scalp tingle as he watched Meng Chuan practicing his hard skills.

"My goodness! You've mastered three Buddhist martial arts techniques at the true level in one go?"
