NOVEL FROG Chapter 3 5 Years Ivy (page 12)
The moonlight shone through the window of Qisha. Lying on the bed, Zang saw that all his roommates had fallen asleep, so he quietly got out of bed and left the dormitory.
After leaving the dormitory building, he ran into a forest by a familiar path. He looked around and sat down when he saw no one was around.
Zang put his five hearts in the sky and began to recall the training method of "Diao Chan Jin".
Different from Taoist Qi training, "Diao Chan Jin" is a martial arts technique for practicing Qi, and it is an internal martial art.
Although the core gist of Taoist Qi training and Neijiaquan are both "Jing Qi Shen", their practice processes are completely different.
The core essence of Taoist Qi training lies in transcendence and ascension. The physical body is just a treasure raft to cross the sea of suffering. No matter what true Qi, golden elixir, Gang Qi, or even the indestructible Vajra, jade bones and golden muscles that appear in the process, they are just by-products. It's all about the minutiae, only flying up in the daytime and becoming an immortal immediately is the right path and the right fruit.
Only people who don't know what they are doing will pursue these products. This is called "ghost-watching ghosts" in Taoism. People who are truly spiritual practitioners will not show off their magical powers, but will just be ordinary and return to nature.
The internal martial arts of martial artists abandons these illusory pursuits and only pursues the actual strong physique or strength, or the visible and tangible attack power. The practice also goes from internal and external kung fu to the combination of hardness and softness, so that it can be mastered and even Unintentionally, there is the true meaning. The advanced state of awakening before the autumn wind moves, is already close to Taoism. If you can further "break the void and see the immortality of gods" and use great wisdom to discover the true meaning of life, you have entered Taoism through martial arts.
Martial arts practitioners focus on training their body and strength. It is divided into three levels of strength: Ming Jin, Dark Jin, and Hua Jin, as well as the steps of bone, tendon, and marrow self-cultivation.
And "Diao Chan Jin" is a method of self-cultivation that was hidden in Wudang Mountain in the previous life.
He also practiced to the Yijin level and was able to escape death many times.
And now Zang is about to start practicing "Fishing Toad Strength" for the first time. Since enrolling in school for more than a year, he has secretly practiced Zhuang Kung Fu, and with his soul power reaching level ten, he can try it out.
Moreover, Zang knows that the strength of physical fitness is related to the number of years of absorbing the soul ring. However, he was too young before and practicing Zhuang Kung Fu would affect his physical development too much, so he did not practice it.
During the day, the master told Zang a piece of news. He knew that a plant soul beast had strong vitality, but its age was slightly older. It was a five-hundred-year-old ivy.
Ivy is famous for its well-developed roots and vitality. As long as all its roots are not dug out, even if it is cut off, the vines will grow back from the roots. Although it has no offensive power, it relies on this vitality. Survived. This is what the master accidentally learned when he traveled across the mainland.
And this is exactly in line with Zang's requirements. Exuberant life may make the dead tree root martial spirit "dead wood spring again", and developed roots can also enhance the extensibility of the dead tree root martial spirit.
The five-hundred-year-old ivy has exceeded the absorption period of the first soul ring. The master also asked Zang many times and confirmed Zang's determination before deciding to take Zang to hunt for this soul ring.
They agreed to meet in a month. During this period, the master had to find a helper to hunt the five-hundred-year-old ivy. After all, this plant spirit beast was in the Sunset Forest!
"Practice theory without practicing strength, practice body without practicing moves..."
After Zang recalled the essence of "Diao Chan Jin", he took a deep breath and started breathing regularly.
Gradually, a frog croaked from Zang's body.
"Gu~gu~gu~gu~"
Along with the frog's croaking, Zang's belly and cheeks suddenly swelled, like a frog courting a mate in the spring field.
This dull frog-like cry seems to contain vigorous vitality.
Fortunately, the woods where Zang practiced were far enough away from the dormitory building, the realm of Zang was not deep, and the frogs' croaking was not loud. Even if a professor came out at night, he would only think it was an ordinary bullfrog.
In this way, Zang practiced "Diao Chan Jin" for two hours every night for a month.
................................................
"Zang, the master is looking for you and asks you to go to his office to find him."
Zang, who was munching on his meal, was tapped on the shoulder, and his roommate called him.
Hearing what his roommate said, Zang hurriedly took a few bites of the rice in the basin, wiped his lips and left in a hurry.
"Oh, this is at least enough food for ten people. Tsk, tsk." The roommate beside him couldn't help complaining as he put aside the basin where he hid his food.
Zang Xiao ran to the door of the master's office, knocked on the door, and pushed the door open after receiving permission.
What you see is still the decadent master Yu Xiaogang, but there is also a burly man standing next to him, not very tall, but really strong.
"This is the help I invited. After all, the ivy plant is outside the Sunset Forest. It's a bit dangerous for you and me to go in. Just call him Mr. Zhao."
Yu Xiaogang made an introduction to Zang.
Zang knew that this person should be the "Fudo Ming King" Zhao Wuji, so he also bent down and bowed, and respectfully shouted "Hello, Mr. Zhao".
There is no way, people under the eaves have to lower their heads. This five-hundred-year-old Ivy has a rare opportunity, so Zangya can only keep his head down and be a human being.
"Just hide it. What you are absorbing this time is five hundred years old ivy. You have to think carefully. Although it may bring evolution to your martial spirit, it may also cause you to explode and die." Zhao Wuji Still reminded.
"Junior understands, but I am an orphan to begin with and have nothing to worry about. For me, even if I have cultivated the dead tree root martial soul to the soul king level, it is difficult to use it to fight. I might as well risk my life to pursue that glimmer of hope."
Zang stared at Zhao Wuji with his eyes and said sonorously and forcefully.
What's more, this month's practice of "Diao Chan Jin" has greatly strengthened Zang's physical body. Of course, his appetite has also been strengthened. It is not an exaggeration to eat ten of them.
"Haha, good boy, if you like me, if you can survive, I can make the decision for you to come to our Shrek Academy." Zhao Wuji laughed loudly and patted Zang's shoulder hard.
Yu Xiaogang stared at Zang with an inexplicable expression, as if he had seen his former self.
"I don't know if I had the courage of this kid back then."
He asked himself.
………………
Three days later, the three came to Sunset Forest.
"Let's go."
Yu Xiaogang led the way, Zang walked beside them, and Zhao Wuji walked behind them.
The three of them walked for a while, and Yu Xiaogang stopped, turned to Zhao Wuji and said, "The ivy is right in front of you, but there is a five-thousand-year-old earth-violent bear guarding it. Wait for it to come to fruition. It’s up to you, Wuji.”
"no problem!"
Zhao Wuji summoned his martial spirit, his body size increased dramatically, and the seven martial spirits on his body moved forward calmly.
After a while, Zhao Wuji shouted: "Come over here!"
Yu Xiaogang and Zang ran over and saw Zhao Wuji sitting on the violent earth bear, while the violent earth bear covered its head and shivered.
"Hey, I know you understand me, go dig up that ivy."
Zhao Wuji clenched his fists, stood up and threatened fiercely.
Hearing this, the violent earth bear quickly glanced at Zhao Wuji secretly, then glanced at Yu Xiaogang and Zang, stood up in a hurry, and began to dig out the ivy beside its cave with its claws.
