Luo Yuan put his knife back into the scabbard and looked up at him with a smile. "Do you want to learn martial arts?"
Luo Yuan's current strength was almost the same as a light green mutated beast. Even if he did not intend to, ordinary people would feel pressured standing in front of him, let alone a child like Huo Dong and the others.
Beads of sweat rolled down Deng Chao's forehead. In just a few seconds, he felt like he had been drenched in water. He tried his best to smile, but his face was stiff and his mind was blank. He swallowed hard and said in a trembling voice, "Yes, yes, I want to be your disciple!"
"I can't hear you. Speak louder!" Luo Yuan shook his head.
"I … I want to be your disciple!" Deng Chao stammered as he took a few steps back in shock.
"I still can't hear you!" Luo Yuan smiled.
Wang Xiaguang looked at Deng Chao's pitiful face and felt sorry for him. She reminded him, "You're stuttering. How can you practice martial arts if you don't have the courage?"
Deng Chao quickly shouted, "I want to be your disciple! I want to be stronger! I want to live!"
"I want to be your disciple too!" Zhong Chuqiang, who was introverted, stood up and said loudly.
Chen Jiayi was also eager to try, but before she could muster up the courage to stand up, Luo Yuan said, "You don't have to be my disciple. If you want to learn, learn as much as you can. During this time, everyone should practice your knife skills. I will also take some time to teach you. "
Judging from the abnormal temperature today, animals and plants would evolve faster and faster in the future, and the situation would become more and more dangerous. If they did not have the ability to protect themselves, most of the people here would not be able to live long. Although practicing swordsmanship would not produce immediate results, they would at least have some ability to protect themselves.
Huo Dong's face was filled with excitement and joy. Ever since they had left Hedong City, they had been homeless and had very little free time. Boss Luo Dong had not taught them knife skills. Even though he would practice his knife skills whenever he had time, the results were not great. He did not expect Boss Luo Dong to take the initiative to teach him.
Everyone looked excited too. Huang Jiahui suggested, "Since everyone has nothing to do, why don't we start now?"
"That's a good idea!" Luo Yuan said. He had the same thought. He continued, "Many people know that a well-trained person with the same physical fitness can easily defeat two to five ordinary people. Their reflexes, attacking power, and even their instincts are far better than ordinary people.
If they work hard, they can achieve this level after three months to a year of intense training.
But this is only the most basic ability. The characteristic of this level is to use the muscles of the body to exert the most power. Huo Dong, take off your shirt. You can demonstrate. Just a casual cut will do! "Luo Yuan said.
Huo Dong stood up excitedly and took off his heavy, armor-like shirt. His beer belly and fat had long since disappeared, revealing his impressive muscles. He took a deep breath and waited for his heart to completely calm down. Only then did he pull out his saber and quickly slashed at the air. The air let out a soft 'chi' sound, and with a flash of light, he put the saber back into its scabbard.
"Pfft!" Lin Xiaoji could not help but chuckle. The way he sheathed his sword was exactly the same as Luo Yuan. However, if Luo Yuan's movements were smooth and pleasing to the eye, Huo Dong's movements were clumsy and unbearable.
Lin Xiaoji laughed, and immediately, the others also laughed. Only a few soldiers still had confused looks on their faces.
That laughter was too ear-piercing, causing Huo Dong's old face to flush slightly. He hated Lin Xiaoji in his heart.
"Alright!" Luo Yuan stood up and took off his bulletproof vest as he walked. He then took off his shirt, revealing his upper body. His skin was as smooth as jade. As his arms moved, his muscles would appear and disappear, rolling like mercury. It had a strong sense of beauty and a huge visual impact.
Zhao Yali and the other women secretly spat. Their faces were flushed, but their eyes were secretly sizing him up from time to time. Even the men were attracted by his streamlined muscles.
Luo Yuan walked up to Huo Dong and said, "Everyone, watch carefully. This time I'll use my sword. The first time, I'll be very slow. The second time, I'll use Huo Dong's physical fitness to do it again."
He stood with one foot in front of the other, his posture very casual. Then he pulled out his Zhanmadao, held it with both hands, and slowly swung it. Although it was the same movement, Luo Yuan looked very pleasing to the eye. His movements were smooth and elegant, dazzling everyone. Along with his movements, the muscles on his back started to roll up and down. The muscles on his back were moving in the same way! "
"Huo Dong, you try it too. Everyone, take a closer look at the difference between our muscle movements," Luo Yuan said.
Huo Dong seemed to have understood something. He nodded and mimicked Luo Yuan's movements, slowly swinging his sword again.
Luo Yuan stuck the sword into the ground and asked everyone, "What do you see?"
"His muscles are very thick, but yours are very thin!" Wang Shishi said with a blushing face.
Luo Yuan was speechless. He did not want to ask the women, so he turned to Lin Xiaoji and said, "You tell us."
"His muscles are very stiff when he moves. Only his back muscles and a very small part of his psoas are moving. His movements are not smooth, but Boss Luo's entire back is involved in the movement." Although Lin Xiaoji's EQ was not very reliable, he still had a good eye for things.
Luo Yuan nodded and said, "That's only half of it. This time, I'm not only using my waist and back, but also my legs and buttocks. Almost all the muscles in my body are involved. First, the force comes from the ground, grabbing the ground with the toes of my right foot, bending my left knee, thighs, buttocks, waist, and finally every finger bone. The muscles are involved in every part of the body, and finally, they are connected into one force. This is the first stage of the sword technique that I'm talking about. It's to maximize the strength of the body. "
He pulled out the sword from the ground and repeated the slow motion again. Then, he closed his eyes slightly and adjusted his strength and agility to around 12 points. The next moment, he quickly slashed out with his sword. There was a soft tearing sound in the air, as if a rag had been torn apart. Everyone could only see a silver-white afterimage, and then the sword was already in its sheath.
"This is the effect of Huo Dong's physical fitness," Luo Yuan said calmly.
Everyone's faces were filled with astonishment. The soldiers were also shocked, and their faces were filled with disbelief. The speed of the sword was much faster than when Huo Dong had demonstrated it. It was more than twice as fast. With such strength, he could even kill a blue level mutated beast easily. He could even challenge a dark blue level beast.
After the initial shock, they became excited. Everyone looked excited and couldn't wait to start practicing immediately.
Luo Yuan asked everyone to calm down and continued, "This is only the first stage of the sword technique. Many people are surprised that my sword can emit light. Some people even asked me if I practiced inner strength."
Commander Xia became serious. He had been wanting to ask about this for a long time and he had even reported it to the General Staff. If it was not for the fact that he had to return to the Reconstruction Area soon, the military would have sent someone to ask about it. After all, this matter was too important to the Reconstruction Area and even to the entire human race. If there really was a legendary skill or inner force, the human race would undoubtedly be in a better situation.
"The answer is no. The light is the sign of entering the second stage of the sword technique. There's a saying in the Taoist book called the integration of essence, qi, and spirit. From what I understand, the essence is the body, the qi is the blood, and the spirit is the will. When the three of them come together, the light will appear," Luo Yuan said.
Luo Yuan's face turned serious as he waved his saber. A layer of intense, misty radiance appeared on the saber's body, flowing on the body of the saber like water.
Everyone held their breath, as if they were afraid that they would blow the light away. Luo Yuan laughed and dispersed the light, "This is mainly related to whether the will can be condensed. In layman's terms, whether the mind is focused enough.
Everyone has distracting thoughts. Buddha said that in a snap of the fingers, a person can have 900 thoughts. This means that there are countless thoughts in a person's mind at any time. How to overcome so many thoughts is very important. In my experience, sitting and meditating every day has a certain effect.
Another is self-hypnosis. When people are most focused, it is when they are facing extreme danger. At that time, they will not have any distracting thoughts, and their will is focused. Using imaginary enemies to hypnotize people is very helpful in condensing their will. Of course, if you experience danger yourself, the effect will be better.
In many novels, the main characters would challenge themselves or put themselves in dangerous situations to improve their strength. It is the same principle! The key is whether they have the courage to be fearless of death. Besides, there is no absolute boundary between the first and second stage. They can be done at the same time. As for the third stage, I will not talk about it. I am still exploring it. "
