Reborn Tianlong: I practice martial arts for immortality

Two hours later, Jiang Weichen walked out of the kitchen carrying the last dish, placed it on the table, and said with a smile, "It's time to eat."

Making this kind of medicinal food is the most troublesome. It needs to be simmered over low heat to allow the medicinal essence of the herbs to be fully integrated into the food.

Jiang Weichen sat down and said to Xiaolian, "Xiaolian, sit down and eat too."

Now that Xiaolian has started practicing martial arts, it wouldn't be a bad idea for her to eat some tonic food.

I hadn't planned to keep her around, but she hadn't done anything wrong.

He also needed someone to run errands and pass messages, and Chunhua also needed someone to talk to, so he kept her.

After saying that, Jiang Weichen picked up the dishes and started eating.

Chunhua no longer needs to be taken care of, and has gradually become her own home.

Jiang Weichen's chopsticks were like afterimages, sweeping away everything in his path.

Often Chunhua and Xiaolian had only picked up one piece of food with their chopsticks when Jiang Weichen had already picked up five or six pieces.

He has practiced Five Animal Exercises and Eight Section Brocade for many years, and his internal organs have long been strengthened.

Now all the meridians in the body are connected, qi and blood flow smoothly, further strengthening the body.

Therefore, many foods do not need to be chewed slowly and can be eaten whole.

After eating half full, he immediately began to practice the Wanhua Guiyuan method. His stomach rose and fell, and his digestive system accelerated.

The essence of grains in food is converted into vital energy through the digestive system.

Jiang Weichen did not use his internal energy to absorb it, but let it dissipate in his body.

He had just forcibly refined the essence of his body when he broke through, and now he needed to replenish it.

In less than half an hour, the table was empty of food.

Nine-tenths of it went into Jiang Weichen's stomach, but when he stood up, there was no sign of his stomach bulging.

Chunhua and Xiaolian were both a little surprised, but that was just surprise. They felt that anything that happened to the eldest brother/leader was very reasonable.

Chunhua asked, "Brother, if I learn these techniques, will it speed up the accumulation of internal energy and shorten the time it takes to open up the meridians?"

"Of course, but this technique requires the coordination of the internal organs. Currently, the safest method is to use Qi and blood to stimulate it. I will teach you once you have mastered Qi and blood."

When Chunhua heard this, her joyful expression suddenly collapsed. She couldn't even integrate her strength, so how could she mobilize her qi and blood?

The circulation of Qi and blood is not like internal Qi. It can be mobilized as long as you find the Qi sensation, calm your mind and guide your thoughts.

The circulation of qi and blood is the body's instinct and has its own route.

If you want to mobilize Qi and blood to circulate according to your wishes, you need to change its own route.

Just like a heavy object in the air will fall, if you want to make it rise, you have to push it with great force.

To change the route of qi and blood flow, a strong mind is needed to guide it.

Jiang Weichen also concentrated his mind, meditated, and practiced visualization for a long time before he was able to control his qi and blood after his mental strength was improved.

Chapter 154: Great Improvement in Qinggong

The next day, Jiang Weichen was moving around on Yunwu Mountain, sometimes up and sometimes down.

The connection of the Ren and Du meridians not only connects heaven and earth, allowing spiritual energy to enter the body, but also allows internal force to be released out of the body.

After all the meridians are unblocked, some toxins and impurities in the body are discharged from the body, and the whole body becomes many times lighter.

Jiang Weichen now uses the Stepping Void Step and combines it with the release of his internal energy to rise and fall above the treetops in the mountains.

He could jump three feet in one step when going down the mountain, and ten feet in one step when going up the mountain.

One zhang is more than three meters, and when going down the mountain, one step is ten meters.

Although he had practiced the Stepping Void Step very well before, it was all on flat ground, and it was still easy for him to fall between the treetops.

He had tried it before when he was at Qingyun Mountain, but his body wasn't light enough and his internal strength wasn't strong enough, so he broke the treetop with one foot and fell straight down.

But now, when you step on it, it bends slightly and you can use the force to rise up.

Even if it is broken, the internal force can be released downward to act as a buffer.

But because of wearing shoes, the release of internal energy was somewhat affected.

Jiang Weichen thought to himself, is this the reason why some people don’t wear shoes?

However, once the internal force is converted into true qi, the impact will be smaller.

Jiang Weichen stepped on the top of a tree, then used the force to rise up, drew an arc in the air, and landed on the eaves three meters away. With another rise and fall, he quickly headed towards the top of the mountain.

Qiu Zhenghao and Qiu Ruhua, who heard the noise in the courtyard, looked up and saw Jiang Weichen who had already left the roof.

"Sure enough, he has made a breakthrough. I thought he only opened up the Ren meridian, but I didn't expect that both the Ren and Du meridians were opened up. This cultivation speed is a bit too fast." Qiu Zhenghao sighed.

Qiu Ruohua said in a complicated tone: "I wonder how long he will be able to complete the card the day after tomorrow?"

He broke through to the acquired perfection when he was over 30 years old, and it had been stuck for more than ten years. Now he was in his fifties, but he still hadn't found the sense of Qi.

Unable to break through his innate strength, he could only continuously purify his internal energy, widen his meridians, expand his dantian, etc.

The combat power has been improving, but if it cannot break through the innate level, there will be a limit after all.

Now he can easily deal with practitioners who have just broken through to the acquired perfection.

However, after sparring with Senior Brother Yu who had made a breakthrough, he was still unable to deal with Xiantian, and was stuck, neither going any further nor making any progress.

Qiu Zhenghao attacked, "Ruohua, a true genius won't be stuck in his realm in the early stages.

Just like Qiao Feng of the Beggars' Sect, who's now slaying enemies all over the border? Who can rival him? And he's only twenty-one years old.

Another example is Murong Fu from the Murong family by the Taihu Lake. He is now seventeen years old and constantly challenges nearby masters. He has become famous in the surrounding area.

Several masters of the same era as me have been defeated by him."

"Dad, do you think Murong Fu will come and challenge you?"

Qiu Zhenghao's expression froze. He was no match for Murong Fu. If he was beaten again, he might die on the spot.

Every time he recovers from an injury, his body's foundation is consumed. Although the martial arts he practices are not overbearing, they are not health-preserving ones either. It is too late to change his practice now.

“If he comes, you can tell him that I’m injured and recovering.

Besides, the news that I was defeated by the leader is no longer a secret. A proud man like him would naturally challenge a strong opponent."

"Then the leader shouldn't be a match, right?" Qiu Ruhua asked.

He had never seen the fight between his father and Jiang Weichen, but both his father and Senior Brother Yu were seriously injured.

Although Senior Brother Yu applied the muscle-growing powder on his arm, some flesh and blood grew and stuck together, covering the bones.

But the flesh and blood grew back, but the meridians did not regenerate.

The left hand can be used for daily life relying on the strength of muscles and bones, but the circulation of true energy is blocked, which is useless for a warrior.

Fortunately, he has broken through the innate realm and can continue to refine his spiritual energy to improve it, but it is not as pure as those with intact bodies.

If the true qi is not pure, it will affect subsequent breakthroughs, but Brother Yu’s talent will stop at the innate level.

If it is the acquired realm, the meridians will be blocked and circulation will not be possible, so the internal force cannot be purified, and the martial arts path will be cut off.

Qiu Zhenghao replied uncertainly, "I have never fought with Murong Fu, so I don't know his specific realm.

However, Jiang Weichen has now completed the tenth level of acquired cultivation, and his Ren and Du meridians are connected. His strength will see a big increase in the near future.

He should be able to fight against a strong man who has just entered the middle stage of Xiantian."

Qiu Ruohua was stunned. "Dad, didn't he defeat you half a year ago? Isn't he already at the mid-stage Xiantian stage?"

"I have made no progress since I broke through to the middle stage of Xiantian cultivation. In addition, my physical strength and blood are not as good as before, so my strength has declined instead of improved.

Therefore, my combat power is just higher than that of an average early stage innate warrior, and it will decline in the future.

So half a year ago, Jiang Weichen should have had the combat power of an early Xiantian, but he couldn't deal with a middle-stage warrior in his prime."

Qiu Zhenghao had nothing to hide from his son, so he blurted it out.

Qiu Ruohua said enviously, "I don't know how he cultivated to be able to fight at higher realms."

"If you're interested, you can switch to practicing the advanced version of the Autumn Water Technique. That technique is very comprehensive, with every meridian widened and tempered to the extreme, including the Dantian, so that your internal strength is strong.

Moreover, Jiang Weichen also practiced the external skill of horizontal training. In the previous fight, I used Yaozu's sword to hit him several times.

But the wound wasn't as big as expected. I feel the skin and muscles have a strong defense, perhaps even reaching a level that is difficult to injure with ordinary weapons."

"Generally, horizontal external skills are trained on the skin membrane, but he even trained the muscles. So the level of his horizontal external skills should be quite high, at least the kind that allows for dual cultivation of internal and external skills."

"The most famous horizontal training external skills are all in Shaolin. Where did he get the inheritance?"

“Who knows? He has only been practicing for four or five years. He has only been to the Giant Whale Gang since he came to Yangcheng. The Giant Whale Gang doesn’t have any high-level inheritance.

However, it is said that he is related to Qiao Feng, who was once a disciple of Shaolin.

"Dad, since Qiao Feng became a disciple of Shaolin, why did he join the Beggars' Sect?"

The father and son chatted intermittently.

…………

Beijing!

Imperial City Division!

"Sir, this is the intelligence on the martial arts world over the past six months. Please review it."

On the desk was a middle-aged man with a square face, wearing a brown official robe and a mustache. He was Huangfu Song, the head of the Imperial City Department.

Huangfu Song did not take the information from his men, but said, "Just read it!"

"Yes, sir!" The subordinate bowed respectfully, took out the information and began to read:

"On March 17th, a squad of 100 Liao troops looted the border. On their way back, they were intercepted by Qiao Feng of the Beggars' Sect and the entire squad was annihilated."

"On May 29th, at the border between the Song Dynasty and Western Xia, Qiao Feng led the Beggars' Sect in a sniper attack on a master from the First-Rank Hall of Western Xia. Both sides suffered casualties."

"On July 25th, the four evil masters of Xixia's Yipintang killed countless Beggar Gang disciples at the Dali branch in revenge.

On the seventh day of August, Qiao Feng fought alone with Duan Yanqing, the leader of the four evil men. Duan Yanqing was defeated, but Qiao Feng held back and Duan Yanqing was not injured.

On August 21st, Qiao Feng returned to the Beggars' Sect headquarters. Rumors soon spread within the Beggars' Sect that Wang Jiantong might pass the throne to Qiao Feng.
