Chapter 81: Internal Strength and External Health
Chapter 81: Internal Strength and External Health
"One dan is stronger than another dan!"
After taking a blood-enhancing pill, Li Yuan felt the heat in his abdomen suddenly spread throughout his body. His originally lukewarm blood began to surge like chicken blood.
The movement of internal energy suddenly became many times faster.
Call ~
Li Yuan raised the hammer and moved, feeling the violent circulation of qi and blood. Later, it seemed that he could even hear the sound of blood flowing.
Before, this was a sign that only occurred when the Qi and blood broke through!
"The medicinal power alone may not be stronger than the top-grade Yuan-boosting Pill, but it is too 'specific' for the disease!"
As he pushed the soldiers forward, Li Yuan felt relaxed all over.
As the internal energy moved around, he could feel a tingling sensation, as if his bones, muscles and tendons were trembling and growing slightly.
During this process, the internal strength seemed to increase slightly.
Qi and blood circulate, internal strength wanders, Qi and blood are consumed, nourishing the body, and internal strength grows stronger… This process repeats itself until the effect of the medicine is exhausted.
"call!"
Li Yuan exhaled a long breath, and sweat rose from his whole body. It seemed as if all the pores in his body were dilated and he was breathing in big gulps.
"The medicinal power is exhausted, and the blood and qi are instantly weakened. This blood-enhancing pill is equivalent to half a month of normal natural growth. It's really effective!"
After taking just one pill, Li Yuan felt as if he saw white silver flying away from him.
Having experienced this kind of growth, and the slow pace of growth without medication, how could he possibly endure it?
"However, you can't take too many pills. Too much intense blood and energy transfer is somewhat harmful to the body. Well, it's best to take one pill every seven days... How long do you have to build up your strength?"
Stretching his muscles, Li Yuan was thinking in his mind.
When the White Ape Hammer Technique reaches the level of internal strength, there is no more room for improvement, while the Bingdao Fighting Killing Hammer lacks a core part. The speed of progress is not a big deal, the key is how to practice it afterwards?
He did know that after internal strength comes body tempering.
But, are there any tricks to tempering the body? How to temper the body to achieve the best effect? How to control the speed? What is the best auxiliary elixir? When will it be considered a breakthrough?
He didn’t know anything…
"I can only slowly build up my internal strength."
Li Yuan never dwells on troubles for too long. After a while, he was too lazy to think about them. He yawned and went back to sleep.
Wake up on time when it is dawn.
He continued to stand in the meditation posture, washed up, and fed the little mouse. After that, he closed the door, went to the roadside to find a place to eat breakfast, and then went to the forging shop.
Without Yu Zhen's threat, Li Yuan returned to his normal life, and even felt that his efficiency in practicing martial arts had increased a lot.
"Comfortable!"
After eating and drinking, Li Yuan wiped his mouth and went to work.
But as soon as he entered the forge, he was a little surprised. The blacksmiths, who had been lazy since returning from Fajiu Mountain, had arrived early.
"Good morning, brothers."
Li Yuan noticed that the atmosphere was a bit weird, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He said hello and prepared to start firing, continuing yesterday's process.
"Li, good morning, sir!"
A blacksmith forced a smile, which was a little stiff and awkward.
"Hey?"
Li Yuan then remembered that Zhang Ben had asked him to take charge of the forging room yesterday. Seeing the unnatural behavior of the blacksmiths, he suddenly felt a little amused:
"Something happened in the shop, and the master wants to take charge of the business. He asked me to serve the brothers. What does it have to do with the manager?"
There are thirty people in the forging room, all of whom have more seniority than him, and Li Yuan doesn't want to use chicken feathers as a token of authority.
"Is that so?"
After Li Yuan said this, some people believed it, while others were skeptical.
But he did not explain further and just continued to forge iron as usual. Gradually, all the blacksmith assistants relaxed a little, but the subsequent communication was still somewhat unnatural.
"The blessing of the Great Craftsman's Hammer has indeed had a great impact on the progress of forging..."
Skilled in forging iron and quenching, Li Yuan felt the changes in the control.
Controlling the Wind Tiger Pestle and the Jade Bronze Hammer made his strength soar, but without the Master Craftsman's Hammer, his progress in forging skills was greatly reduced.
"Therefore, the most correct way to use the Weapon Control Scroll is to fully understand its effects and make use of them for your own benefit!"
Li Yuan became more certain of his thoughts.
At this moment, the Master Craftsman's Hammer was no longer under his control, but the forging skills he had mastered were real, and not completely lost after the change of control.
Zhang Ben did not come to the forge that morning. Only the external affairs manager came and informed them of the weapons that needed to be forged in the next few days. He also took note of the iron materials needed by Li Yuan and purchased them later.
Li Yuan was very familiar with these procedures, and the smooth handover surprised even the foreign affairs manager.
"Junior Brother Li!"
At lunch time, Li Yuan was drinking a nourishing soup when Yue Yunjin, who had not been seen for a day, came over with Zhao Xiaoming's arm, his face flushed.
Glancing at Wu Ming, who was following behind the two men with a dark face, Li Yuan stood up:
"Brother Yue, is there something good going on?"
"Haha, kind of."
Yue Yunjin was in a good mood after taking a look at Zhao Xiaoming, whose face was full of rosy clouds:
"Miss Lu sent someone to inform us that Miss Fang has returned to the city and is ready to meet us!"
"Oh?"
Li Yuan's mind moved: "When are we going?"
"Now!"
Yue Yunjin was obviously ready, but it was not so easy for Li Yuan to leave now, so he had to go back to the forging room first, and after making arrangements, he hurried over.
……
Inner city, outside Lu Mansion.
"So many people?" Li Yuan was also shocked when he saw the huge crowd outside Lu's mansion. How could the party suddenly become so big?
He glanced around casually. In addition to the young ladies and young masters from the inner city, the apprentices from the outer city were also there. He even saw Niu Gui in the crowd.
And Wang Gong, who lost his father one day.
"Brother Yue, why is there such a big scene today?"
Li Yuan found Yue Yunjin, who also looked confused and obviously had no idea what was going on.
Zhao Xiaoming looked a little unnatural, but still held Yue Yunjin's arm.
Li Yuan glanced over and saw Wang Gong, who was not far away, clenching his fists, his face flushed, and looking like he was about to kill someone, while Wu Ming was watching coldly.
Oh my god, a love triangle!
Li Yuan sighed in his heart and didn't care much about other people's private affairs. After taking a look around, he looked towards the gate of Lu Mansion.
"Soldier's Way Fighting Hammer!"
On the steps, Fang Yunxiu glanced at everyone in front of the door, half believing and half doubting.
The Bingdao Fighting and Killing Hammer is the first of the five inner sect's secrets, and it is also the most difficult to learn and master. She really doesn't believe that anyone can get started with just the fragments she got from Nian Jiu.
The way of war is fighting and killing. Fighting and killing are skills, and war is the "way".
It's so incomplete, what kind of talent does it take to learn and get started?
"Aunt, why did you call so many people?"
Lu Bailing also looked confused.
"Next March, the gates of our Divine Weapon Valley will be open. All the people under the jurisdiction of Zhelong Mansion who have outstanding talents and excellent physiques can enter!"
Fang Yunxiu used all her strength to speak, making sure everyone present could hear:
"I am Fang Yunxiu, an inner sect disciple of the Divine Weapon Valley and the deputy envoy of Xunying..."
Full of energy!
Li Yuan standing at the back could hear it very clearly and was very curious about this pronunciation technique.
Qin Xiong was born with a loud voice, this is obviously a skill, if it is a skill, then you can learn it...
Divine Weapon Valley!
Many people present had seen Fang Yunxiu, but when they heard the name of "Divine Weapon Valley", they couldn't help but be shocked.
"Ms. Fang, we heard that the Divine Weapon Valley places great emphasis on root bones. Can't we join the Divine Weapon Valley if we don't have good root bones?"
Someone in the crowd asked loudly.
"Of course!"
Fang Yunxiu frowned slightly and replied immediately:
"Those with excellent talents but weak bones can also join our Divine Weapon Valley!"
"May I ask Fairy Fang what is the best talent?"
Someone asked again.
The crowd was already quite agitated, and many were even jumping for joy.
"Anyone under the age of thirty-five, even if their aptitude is low, can join our Divine Weapon Valley as long as they can perfect any martial art!"
"Perfection!"
The crowd, which was restless before, suddenly became quiet after hearing these words.
Before internal strength, only those with a strong foundation, even those with weak bones, can accumulate qi and blood to great success, it’s just a matter of speed.
But martial arts is not about blood and energy. The improvement of skills requires constant practice and cannot be achieved by external things.
If you want to master a martial art, it will take three to five years for a person with a good aptitude, and eight to nine years for a person with a poor aptitude. As for perfection...
"Lady Fang, if we can practice martial arts to perfection, how could we be of such low caliber?"
The man from before started making noise again.
But this time Fang Yunxiu did not answer. Lu Bailing frowned slightly, and someone had already dragged her away.
"Any martial arts, whether it's swords, guns, clubs, fists or feet, as long as you have perfected it, no matter how poor your foundation is, you will have the opportunity to join my Divine Weapon Valley!"
Fang Yunxiu glanced at everyone:
"Under 20 years old, with a medium to low physique, and great martial arts skills, that's fine too!"
This time, the crowd did not make a commotion, and many people had already dispersed. Only a few people had shining eyes, but they obviously met the requirements.
Li Yuan took a look and saw that they were disciples from the three major martial arts schools in the inner city. One of them was Liang A Shui's junior brother. He had an above-average physique and was quite talented. He had mastered the Six Directions and achieved great martial arts a few years ago.
"Is it okay even if you have mastered martial arts?"
Li Yuan felt relieved. If he had to perfect his martial arts, he would not go up at all.
He has been practicing martial arts for less than a year at most. If he displays his perfect hammer skills, it would be too conspicuous.
As for the great success, although it is also astonishingly fast, it is still within the category of genius.
He heard that in the past 200 years, the Weapon Forging Shop had produced a talented warrior who had mastered martial arts in just over a year...
"Well, it shouldn't be too eye-catching..."
Li Yuan had an idea in his mind, but he didn't rush up. Instead, he carefully watched the two martial arts disciples who were demonstrating their martial arts.
The two men, one used a knife and the other used a palm. Each move was very methodical. It was obvious that they had mastered it for a long time. Their blood and energy were very vigorous, and they had good talents and physiques.
"It's Shen Shangying and Miao Zhen!"
Yue Yunjin looked solemn as he recognized the two apprentices.
Compared with these two people, he is inferior in all aspects except for his slightly better physique. If it weren't for Fang Yunxiu's guidance, he might not be able to comprehend the Six Combinations now...
"Not among these people?"
In front of the door, Shen Shangying and Miao Zhen were fighting fiercely, but Fang Yunxiu was a little absent-minded. She was a little disappointed when the two men left, and then someone came forward with a bow:
"Li Yuan, the forger, is good at using the White Ape Cloak Hammer!"
