In addition to continuing to supervise our body adjustment training, Liang Yue will also carry out breath adjustment training with us simultaneously.

In fact, Pang Dahai and I have learned simple breath adjustment before. It was taught to us by the third uncle. He let us use this simple breath adjustment when we are extremely tired, sleepy, or unable to sleep. way to adjust your body.This kind of situation is very common when we are breaking haunted houses everywhere. The simple breath adjustment can play some role at the beginning, but as we become more proficient in doing it, the effect is not so obvious.

This time, Chu Liuyan told us to forget the simple method of breath adjustment we learned before and start from scratch.This time he is going to help us practice breathing adjustment systematically, in preparation for the practice of inner strength.

Chu Liuyan first called the three of us together and began to tell us some basic theories about breath adjustment.

Chapter 956 Little Zhou Tian

Chu Liuyan said: "I told you that the highest state of practicing internal strength is body awareness. It means that the body itself knows the movement of qi. That will be a state of doing whatever one wants. Now all our practice is towards such a goal. As for what kind of realm we can finally reach, none of us can be sure at present. Our current practice is actually a process of adjusting the circulation of Qi and blood. In our human body, the circulation of Qi and blood has rules to follow. It has a certain sequence and time. For example, which internal organ will the Qi and blood flow to at midnight, and which organ will it flow to at noon... Then there are twelve hours in a day, 24 hours. In this After the twelve hours are over, the qi and blood will run around the whole body exactly once, which is called a cycle. This cycle exists in everyone's body and does not need to be practiced, it is called the innate great cycle."

After Pang Dahai heard this, he hurriedly said: "I know Zhou Tian. I read that these two words are often mentioned in the martial arts novels, and there is something like Xiao Zhou Tian."

Chu Liuyan nodded: "That's right, I'm going to talk about the little Zhoutian soon. The innate big anniversary is something that people are born to keep running as long as they are alive. The purpose of our practice of inner strength is to control the inner strength to move quickly in the body. Running, try to complete the running that should have been completed in one day in an hour or less. This kind of running needs to be practiced the day after tomorrow, so it is called the day after tomorrow. The method of breath adjustment that your third uncle taught you before, It is the use of this theory. You think, it took a whole day for Qi and blood to go around the body. You use an hour to let the Qi and blood go around, so it will quickly It replenished the body's energy and relieved the fatigue of the body. It's just that you didn't adjust your breathing force enough before, so you couldn't achieve the desired effect at all."

We nodded frequently when we heard it. Before, we only knew to learn according to what the third uncle taught, but we didn't know why.This is the real understanding of its essence and truth.

Chu Liuyan went on to say: "There are two kinds of Houtian Zhoutian, one is the big Zhoutian, and the other is the small Zhoutian. The little Zhoutian is what the fat man said just now, and it controls Qi and blood to only go around Ren Du's second channel. , the speed is fast but the gong is slow. The big cycle refers to the control of qi and blood around all the meridians of the body, the gong is fast but the speed is slow. Moreover, it is difficult to achieve this level of internal strength cultivation. Only those who practice "knowledge of the body" Only then can we do it. At least for now, Dongbin and I can’t do it. What you need to practice now is to be able to achieve Xiao Zhoutian.”

Fat Dahai showed joy, and said: "Master, Xiao Zhoutian just let his qi and blood go around Ren Du's second vein. It turns out that people really have Ren Du's second vein. I thought it was all fabricated in martial arts novels. "

Chu Liuyan nodded: "Martial arts novels are also well-founded. Of course, people have two channels of Ren and Du, which start from the Baihui point on the top of the head and go down to the Huiyin point on the crotch. The central line on the front of the body is the Ren channel, and the central line on the back of the body is the Du channel. I will mark the two channels of Ren and Du, as well as the important acupoints and organs around the two channels. You practice breathing adjustment every day. This is a long-term process, and you must not be greedy. The so-called haste makes waste. Of course , the progress of body adjustment cannot be slowed down, this Liang Yue must follow."

"Don't worry, uncle." Liang Yue said, patting her chest.

I glanced at Liang Yue: "When did my uncle become your uncle?"

Liang Yue pursed her lips: "I learned internal skills from the uncle, but the uncle doesn't accept female apprentices, so I have no choice but to call him the uncle. Why are you only allowed to call me, not me?"

Chu Liuyan smiled and said: "You can call it whatever you want. I don't stick to the name, you just need to learn it with your heart. Starting tomorrow, we will practice breath adjustment. But this breath adjustment practice is a long-term behavior, and there will be another half a month. In time, I believe you will be able to master the method of practice. At that time, you won’t have to come here every day to do it.”

Regarding the practice of internal strength, we all understand that it is definitely a protracted process.Cultivators like Chu Liuyan and my third uncle, even Ouyang or other top Taoist masters, are still practicing, not to mention our club players who have only been in the field for a few days.

Perhaps seeing that our emotions were not too high, Chu Liuyan was afraid that we would give up halfway, and said: "It will take time to achieve great success. But if you practice this way for a month, I can show you small success."

Pang Dahai was very interested and asked, "Master, what level can Xiaocheng achieve?"

Chu Liuyan waved his hand: "I'll keep it a secret for now, and you will know it by then. However, this month, you must practice strictly according to the method I taught you. First of all, you should not eat too much oil or meat. It is best to quit Meat. And sleep up to four hours at night, it depends on the situation. The rest of the time outside of sleep should be adjusted according to the method of breathing, and strive to be able to walk a small week."

For a month in a row, I can only sleep for a maximum of four hours at night, and I rely on my own breathing to adjust my body.This is definitely a test for us.Hearing what Chu Liuyan said was easy, we actually had no idea.

This time, in order to ensure the quality of our training, Chu Liuyan simply refused to let us go back to the hotel, and let us stay in the practice room at night, and adjust our breath according to the formulas he said about the heart and the movement of qi and blood.He was really sleepy, so he could only lie down on the cushion and squint for a while, the time was controlled by Liang Yue.Of course she will practice with us this time, and we can also supervise her.

This is why Chu Liuyan asked us to stay together.

At the beginning, I felt that it was difficult for me to do it.Because I have tried it before, breath adjustment can indeed improve my energy, but it is still impossible to use breath adjustment to completely replace sleep.

But this time we completely abandoned the previous method of breath adjustment. Chu Liuyan said that the previous method was a quick method taught by our third uncle.This time he started with the basics and made us feel completely different.

I was skeptical at the beginning, but on the first night when I followed the new breathing method to channel the qi and blood in my body, I suddenly had a completely different feeling from before.

This feeling is hard to describe. If I had to find a word to describe it, it would be "comfortable".

Muscles are comfortable, viscera are comfortable, breathing is comfortable... everything seems so logical.As if my body should have this reaction.

In this case, I quickly entered a state of ecstasy.Soon, where am I...what am I doing...such questions are also eliminated in my mind.It was as if the mind had been emptied, and the body seemed to be suspended...

Chapter 957 Cultivation Bottleneck

Driven by me, the blood in my body flows along Ren Du's two veins.

I enjoyed this process very much, and when the process was about to end, I felt unsatisfied.

After the process was over, I put my blood back into myself, and then slowly opened my eyes.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Pang Haihai and Liang Yue squatting in front of me, staring at me with tired faces and red eyes, as if they were observing an alien creature.

Shocked, I asked in surprise, "You two don't practice breathing adjustment, what are you doing looking at me? What's on my face?"

I subconsciously touched my face.

Liang Yue asked, "What were you doing just now?"

I was taken aback: "What were you doing just now? I'm adjusting my breath, what else can I do?"

Pang Dahai asked: "Boss, how do you feel now? Are you sleepy?"

I blinked my eyes and felt it. At this time, not only did I not feel sleepy, but I felt refreshed and refreshed.I think it should be related to the state I was in just now.

I shook my head: "Not sleepy, why do you ask this..."

Pang Dahai was very surprised, and asked: "Is it true? Are we learning a set of mental methods? Why can't Liang Yue and I do it? After doing it again, you are still sleepy. It's because your face was flushed just now. Your complexion is a bit strange, I'm still afraid that you may be insane?"

"Why is it so easy to get mad? Do you think you are a martial arts master? How long have I been in that state just now?" I asked with a wry smile.

Liang Yue said, "It's been almost three hours."

"Three hours? Uncle Master seems to say that you can take a small week in an hour." I shook my head.

"You can do it. Just now you seemed to be in meditation. You didn't feel that we were by your side. No matter how hard Fatty and I tried, we couldn't enter this state. It seems that the master is right. It really depends on talent. Your talent must be better than me and Fatty, I don’t care about you, I’ll try again, Fatty don’t be lazy, keep practicing.” Liang Yue regretted that she didn’t reach that state.

"Okay." Fatty replied, and sat back to adjust his breath.

I don't really understand why this happens, but I just feel that it has something to do with taking Huolingsaliva in my body.They always say that that thing is a good thing that is once in a thousand years, but I didn't see it.If this is really a good thing, if I take it, it must have some effect.

I didn't sleep that night either. I watched Liang Yue and Pang Dahai try to adjust their breathing time and time again, but they never reached my level.

The next morning, we reported the situation to Chu Liuyan.Fat Dahai asked: "Master, is it because Liang Yue and I practiced wrongly?"

Chu Liuyan smiled and said: "It's the other way around. The situation between you and Liang Yue is normal. Li Yang's situation is special, and it has something to do with his body. I think it has something to do with the fact that he has taken the precious Huolingsaliva from the Huolingwang. Huo Lingsaliva, which is rare in thousands of years, has the effect of improving blood quality. And internal energy is mainly based on the flow of qi and blood, so it is not surprising that Li Yang has the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort. However, Li Yang still needs to work hard, three Walking for hours and days a week has not achieved the best results. Don't lose heart, both of you, just take it step by step."

It turned out that it was really related to the fact that I had taken Huolingsaliva. It seems that the benefits brought to me by the King of Fire Beavers are still continuing.

After hearing this, Pang Dahai and Liang Yue nodded their heads frequently, knowing that they were on the right path was enough.

Next, the three of us stayed in Chu Liuyan's Wushan Hall for a full month.

During this month, I almost slept no more than two hours a day, and the time it took me to go through the energy and blood for a small week after entering meditation was also shortened from more than three hours to two and a half hours.

But if you want to shorten it further from two and a half hours, you can't do it.Chu Liuyan said that this is a bottleneck in my body.If you want to surpass the past, you can only do it after your body reaches a certain stage.

He said that when I can complete a small Sunday in an hour, my internal energy will reach a very high level.

And Liang Yue and Pang Dahai also improved a lot compared to the first day.In a week, they were already able to drive Qi and blood to travel in the body.In half a month, I reduced the time spent walking around the Little Zhou from five hours to three and a half hours.

And they also reached their bottleneck in three and a half hours.

In the half month after that, Pang Dahai and Liang Yue only shortened the time by about 10 minutes, and the progress can be said to be very slow.

Chu Liuyan explained that this is a normal phenomenon. Generally speaking, it is very difficult to shorten even one minute after adjusting the breath.At the stage of him and third uncle, if we can shorten the time to run Xiao Zhoutian by 1 minute, then the cultivation of internal strength will be greatly improved.When it is reflected in Taoism, Taoism will also improve for a long time.

But after we have practiced internal strength for a month, the most obvious change is actually the body.The flexibility of the body has improved by leaps and bounds.After fully stretching the ligaments of the body, when continuing to stretch, the pain has been greatly relieved.And we really felt the benefits brought to us by body stretching.

With sufficient breath adjustment, we no longer feel heavy in the body in the morning, but full of energy, and the body seems to contain unlimited potential.

Soon the one-month deadline came, and Chu Liuyan saw that we could practice internal strength alone, so he told us that we don't need to be in Wushan Hall every day for the time being.But after returning home, you must work diligently and practice internal strength frequently.

This is good news for us. After all, apart from cultivating internal strength, staying in Wushantang every day is a bit too boring.

Pang Dahai suddenly asked: "Master, do you think the three of us have achieved some success after this month's hard work?"

Chu Liuyan smiled and nodded: "I know what you want to say, this small success is still a big success, and there is no written standard. How about this, let you verify it, whether it is a small success or not, you have the final say."

With that said, Chu Liuyan took out a candle again, lit it and placed it on the counter.

Pang Dahai and I have seen it before, that day Chu Liuyan knocked out the flame of the candle with a single palm.At that time he was five steps away from the candle.

It was that moment that shocked us, and Fatty and I made up our minds to practice internal strength.

Seeing this scene, Pang Dahai said, "Master, do you want us to hit this candle with our palms too? This is not bad, just to test it."

Chu Liuyan smiled: "Then you try it. Adjust your breath, circulate your qi and blood, go through Ren Du's second channel, and start from the dantian, exerting strength instantly."

Chapter 958 Report Performance

"Look, master. I'll come first." Pang Dahai nodded, walked up and stood where Chu Liuyan was standing at that time, took a deep breath and was about to prepare.

Chu Liuyan stepped forward and grabbed the fat man by the neck, pulled the candle some distance away, and said, "You're welcome, you don't know how much you weigh? It would be nice if you could knock out the candle in two steps." .Try it here."

At the position designated by Chu Liuyan, if he extended his palm, the palm would be two steps away from the candle.To be honest, although this location is much closer than Chu Liuyan's day, but even here, being able to extinguish the candle is something we never dared to think about before.

Therefore, whether the fat man can succeed directly represents our training level for this month.Liang Yue and I also stared at Pang Dahai nervously.

Pang Dahai was full of confidence. He started from the preparation work and brewed for 2 minutes.This is also the place where we and Chu Liuyan are quite different. At that time, Chu Liuyan looked unprepared, and the light went out when he shot.

After a long time of luck, the fat man suddenly gave a loud shout, and slapped his right palm flat, hitting the flame of the candle.

The few of us immediately turned our attention to the candles on the counter.

I saw that the candle flame flickered suddenly, only flickered, but did not go out.

"Huh..." Liang Yue and I let out the breath we had been holding back all this time. We were very disappointed by the result.

"Master, this..." Fatty may be too confident, and he is obviously not satisfied with the result.

Chu Liuyan waved his hand: "You can't use palms, use fists instead. If you don't specialize in palms, fists are easier to gather force than palms. Your procedure just now is completely correct. Listen to me and try using fists."

Fat Dahai nodded, and repeated the procedure just now.

After another 2 minutes of preparation, when Pang Haihai stopped drinking, he punched out.

The palm-for-fist change really worked, and the candle flame went out with a puff.

"It's gone, it's gone, master, did you see that the candle is gone..." Pang Dahai was overjoyed by this result and cheered happily.

"Calm down, don't make a fuss, can you have something to do?" Chu Liuyan yelled at the fat man, and then said to Liang Yue: "Liang Yue, come and try."

Liang Yue responded and also came to Pang Haihai's place.

Chu Liuyan relit the candle.

Liang Yue also prepared for about 2 minutes, and suddenly let out a coquettish shout and punched out.However, the candle flame only flickered violently, but did not go out.

Liang Yue was taken aback, and said, "Master, what's going on? I'll try again..."

Chu Liuyan waved his hand: "Liang Yue, the practice of internal force is more about mobilizing the pure yang force in the body. So there must be differences in the effects of exercises between men and women. It is already very good that you can achieve this effect Yes. With your original skills and internal strength, your fighting level can be improved by at least [-]%."

"Oh." Although Liang Yue was a little unwilling, but because of the differences between men and women, it couldn't be changed, so she had to give up.

Chu Liuyan looked at me and said, "Li Yang, it's up to you."

I nodded, and the fat man successfully extinguished the candle, which gave me a lot of confidence.

I walked over, trying to follow the fat man's routine.As a result, Chu Liuyan directly pulled me three steps away, and said, "Use your palm."

"Ah? Uncle, can this work?"

"Try." Chu Liuyan only said two words.

I stood three steps away, thought about the mental method, and secretly mobilized the qi and blood in my body according to the method of regulating breath.I can feel a weak air flow in my body.But this feeling is very weak, and it seems to be fleeting.

When the indistinct air flow reached my right arm, I suddenly let out a cry, and with an explosive impact, I struck my right palm towards the candle three steps away.

The process of my luck was very smooth, without any obstacles in the middle, so the slap was almost done in one go.

"puff!"

The flame seemed to be sprayed directly on it in one breath, and it didn't even shake, and suddenly went out.

This came out crispy.From a performance level, it is also very exciting.I didn't expect this effect myself.

"Wow... that's amazing..." Liang Yue took the lead in applauding and cheering.

Chu Liuyan was not overly surprised by the result, but he could tell that he was overjoyed.He nodded and said: "Okay, this is the end of the report performance. You three should do what you want. Don't forget, practicing inner strength is a long-term behavior, and you can't slack off at any time. To put it bluntly, as long as If you don’t die, don’t stop. Your internal strength will also improve day by day.”

We worked hard for more than a month, and finally achieved something. We were in a good mood, so we bid farewell to Chu Liuyan and left Wushan Hall.

The three of us had just left the house when I suddenly remembered something and asked Liang Yue to drive the fat man away in his own car.I myself turned around and returned to Wushan Hall.

When Chu Liuyan saw me coming back, she was not too surprised, but just said lightly: "Why are you back again?"

I laughed and said: "I almost forgot, uncle, I want to ask about the ancient talisman. I remember when you just came back, we talked about the ancient talisman, and then we have been practicing internal strength, and I forgot about the ancient talisman. Didn’t you say that after we improve our cultivation, we can control higher-level runes? Then with my current cultivation, can I draw that ancient talisman?”

Chu Liuyan shook his head: "You've only practiced for a few days. Even though your cultivation base has improved faster than Fatty and the others, you still have a long way to go if you want to control the ancient talisman."

I was a little disappointed when I heard that, although I got the ancient talisman, third uncle and Chu Liuyan also said that it was my great fortune.Because not everyone can get this ancient talisman.According to what they said, it seems that having the ancient rune means having the supreme mana.

But I have never used it, only the last time my third uncle asked me to try painting, it was still such a bad result.

According to what Chu Liuyan said, I am still far from being able to control the ancient talisman. Isn't it because I have been unable to use it all this time.Since I can't use it, what difference does it make if I get the ancient rune or not.

Seeing my expression, Chu Liuyan smiled and said, "Are you a little disappointed?"
