Bearing the blue sky

Chapter 106 Practicing Martial Arts! Understanding the Heart of Martial Arts!

The forests surrounding the valley were ravaged by all sorts of wild beasts and monsters.

The most intelligent beings on this land are demons, followed by humans.

As for ghosts, spirits, monsters, and gods, they are extremely rare.

Of course, Zhu Ge didn't train with demonic beasts for all his martial arts practice.

To develop a certain level of control, one can practice with a mouse or a rabbit.

Therefore, Zhu Ge sometimes used a stick and sometimes his hands, fully experiencing the python's strangulation technique.

Fortunately, with the Five Animal Frolics as a foundation, Zhu Ge was able to figure out some things.

imitate!

Play the role!

Knowing the art of role-playing, Zhu Ge began to learn how to play the snake.

His hands gradually became soft under the influence of blood and qi.

Too much rigidity leads to breakage.

What Zhu Ge is currently exploring is his understanding of the principle of combining strength and gentleness.

The more methods they have, the harder they are to control!

"Tiger type!"

"The 36-Road Giant Swing!"

"Tea Swordplay!"

Zhu Ge and Liu Jianjian walked around the valley, killing any monsters they encountered.

They slaughtered seven or eight spirit-level demonic beasts along the way, which can be considered a very fruitful harvest.

Moreover, the situation of increasingly more monsters became even more serious in the following days.

Monsters roam everywhere!

Perhaps due to the large number of dead people and monsters, Hua Liusha also devoured a spirit-realm pig demon and a transformation-realm cat demon.

changed!

While Zhuge was fighting against the Fungus God, Jianshan Village was generally peaceful, except that Jianshan Village was invaded by the Fungus God.

At that time, Zhu Ge had considered killing Tiger God, but Tiger God and Mr. Insect were, in a sense, factors that stabilized the area around Jianshan Village.

But now?

Zhuge Valley is actually located in a very remote area, sparsely populated and with few resources.

But now there are endless monsters to kill.

"!!!"

After killing the eighth demon beast, Zhu Ge looked at the moon in the sky and wiped away his sweat.

"Master, do you want to rest for a bit?" Liu Jianjian was exhausted, like a dead dog. "I can't fight anymore."

Zhu Ge didn't teach anything else, but instead taught the Five Animal Frolics.

Humans can learn the Five Animal Frolics, and so can hedgehogs.

Moreover, Liu Jianjian transforms into human form, so there isn't much of a hurdle in learning from her.

However, Liu Jianjian really didn't like those kinds of martial arts techniques that involved large, sweeping movements; she preferred things like "Lighting Incense" and "Tea Swordplay."

There is also the deer and crane play in the Five Animal Frolics.

Zhu Ge didn't force Liu Jianjian, but let her choose what she liked and what suited her.

Although Liu Jianjian is still far from becoming a martial artist and developing blood energy after this trip,

But at least he has some fighting ability now.

Unfortunately, the existence of a cultivation method suitable for practicing the "Great Sun Glazed Body" is extremely rare and hard to come by.

Liu Jianjian is currently unable to separate her soul from her body, and the Great Sun Glass Body requires cultivation when there is no "qi" in the body.

Therefore, Liu Jianjian can only follow the path of refining blood and qi, and cannot refine her body.

Fortunately, Liu Jianjian originally possessed the physical attributes of a demon.

It's just that after practicing martial arts, he hasn't yet reached the point of successfully refining his blood qi.

This is something that can't be rushed.

We still need to strike a balance between tension and relaxation.

"Let's rest." Thinking of this, Zhu Ge sat down as well: "Let's rest for a bit. If we get hungry, we can go back and make a fire to roast some meat."

It's more dangerous to barbecue outside the valley; it's better inside the valley.

"Okay!" Liu Jianjian plopped down. "I'm exhausted, so exhausted!"

"Haha, someone like you wouldn't be able to get married in our Jianshan Village." Zhu Ge laughed: "Back then, Hua Liusha was very capable."

"Oh?" Liu Jianjian suddenly perked up her ears upon hearing this, leaned closer to Zhu Ge, and asked with a face full of curiosity, "Master, do you mean that Sister Liusha was particularly capable before?"

"You're such a gossip—" Zhu Ge shook her head with a smile: "Hua Liusha used to be able to plant rice seedlings all day long! He could also plow, weed, and control pests on more than ten acres of land!"

"Can it stay in place for that long?"

Liu Jianjian exclaimed with admiration, "Sister Liusha is amazing! Her stamina is incredible!"

"Although what you said doesn't seem quite right, it makes sense," Zhu Ge said with a smile.

Farmers' children don't have so many complicated stories.

Whether you're male or female, as long as you're able, you have to get out of bed and work!

Get to work!

Farmers!

This is the cornerstone of human agricultural civilization!

"Oh, right, the farmers—"

Zhu Ge pondered the word, and suddenly thought of a way to hone his martial arts skills.

Let's do farm work!

There are even many other jobs you can do!

"No rush. I'll study the Way of the Beasts first, then go back and study the Way of Man."

Thinking of this, Zhu Ge also thought of the faint trace of literary energy within her body.

His literary talent might also contribute to his exploration of the human condition.

"You weak insect, submit to me and become my pet!"

While I was resting, a loud laugh suddenly came from not far away.

Zhu Ge looked over and saw a huge, bamboo-like creature rapidly paddling towards them.

Stick insect!

Moreover, it's a second-stage transformed demon beast!

This stick insect was originally not very noticeable, but it seems to have transformed into something more conspicuous after metamorphosis.

This stick insect is covered with colorful spots, and it looks like it has some kind of poison.

"Stick insects? Perfect!"

Zhu Ge stood up and looked at Liu Jianjian beside her: "You watch out, I'll handle these stick insects!"

After saying that, Zhu Ge leaped up with the silver staff in hand.

"The 36-Road Giant Swing!"

The silver rod in his hand whistled as it slammed into the stick insect, like a giant spinning top.

"state!!!!"

The silver stick collided with one of the stick insect's legs, producing a muffled thud.

Zhu Ge's body was thrown into the sky, and the stick insect crashed into several large trees before coming to a stop.

"Such strength?!" Green blood flowed from the stick insect's narrow mouthparts. "Are you a human genius?!"

"Bang—"

Before Zhu Ge even landed, she used the tree as leverage to push off and returned to the stick insect's side.

"Catch the baton!"

He didn't reply, he just kept hitting the stick.

Because he had just discovered that the stick insect's six legs and body had a metallic sheen.

Those strangely colored spots are not from plant sap, but rather from the fact that this stick insect seems to have absorbed various metals during its metamorphosis!

An excellent sparring partner!

Zhu Ge needed to familiarize himself with the silver staff and martial arts.

Most of what they encountered were monsters, whose attack methods were too limited.

For example, the previously transformed python only had one skill: constriction and strangulation.

Most monsters do not use weapons!

Now, this stick insect is a monster with six "long sticks".

Moreover, these six "long sticks" are actually the hands and feet of this stick insect.

In other words, stick insects use these six "long sticks" with true ease!

"Swift Fist!"

"Vajra Palm!"

"Crane type!"

Zhu Ge wielded the stick with incredible speed and precision.

He displayed all sorts of martial arts techniques, sometimes like a swift gliding through the rain, sometimes like a crane raising its head and spreading its wings, and sometimes like a waiter pouring tea for a guest.

He even tried to rotate the end of the silver rod in a small area, causing the tip of the rod to rotate as well, creating a strange vibration, in order to achieve the strangulation technique of the giant python he had seen earlier.

"You, you, you human—Great hero, spare my life!"
