Mo Wen nodded slightly, neither warm nor cold.
Wang Yuan smiled indifferently, not caring whether Mo Wen's name was Mo Wen or asking him not to ask. They started to tidy up their beds. The military had prepared their daily necessities, so they only brought some underwear and personal necessities.
The military district of the 19th Army Group was not small. From noon to afternoon, Mo Wen walked around the military district for the whole afternoon. Other than some forbidden areas, he was only familiar with the general area.
The military district was built in the mountains. The valley that was similar to a basin was not small, and the construction of the military district had already extended into the mountains. It was basically impossible to walk around the entire military district without a few days.
However, although the military district was big, the range of activities of the students was small.
After having dinner in the canteen, those who were used to sleeping late went to bed early, as they had to wake up at five in the morning the next day for training. The strictness of their training was no less than that of the new recruits. If they did not rest well at night, they would have a hard time the next day.
The next day, Mo Wen woke up early at four o 'clock. To be exact, he woke up at three o' clock. He meditated on his bed and practiced for an hour before getting up to wash up.
He walked out of the dormitory. Although the sun rose early in the summer, it was still dark at four o 'clock. The military was quiet, with the occasional barking of a dog.
Other than the people standing guard and patrolling outside, there were very few figures of other people.
Mo Wen walked alone to a patch of grass in the military field and started his morning exercise.
For practitioners, the body was the foundation of everything. The beginning of practice was the training of the body. The body was like a treasure. Only by excavating it bit by bit could the infinite potential be unearthed.
Mo Wen had once seen a passage in an ancient book: The way of practice starts from the body and starts from the heart. Refining the body into essence, refining the essence into Qi, refining the Qi into spirit, refining the spirit to return to emptiness, refining the emptiness to merge with the way, merging with the way to create the law, and the law to create all things.
Although Mo Wen did not really understand, he knew that the first realm of practice mentioned in the book was refining the body into essence. This realm emphasized training the body, storing the essence Qi, Vital Qi, and Vital Qi. Then, it was refining the essence into Qi. When the essence, Qi, and spirit reached the peak, it would become Inner Qi.
According to the ancient book, this was the foundation of all practice. However, the inner Qi cultivators in that world contradicted this. They usually cultivated inner Qi from the very beginning and pursued a strong cultivation of inner Qi. From there, they could release their inner Qi and form Gang, which was a profound realm where they could behead someone from ten meters away or even a hundred meters away.
Many top-notch experts in the martial arts world, who could be called the Mount Tai and the Big Dipper, did not pay attention to the cultivation of their bodies. They often only cultivated their Inner Qi, which could split mountains and split rocks, kill people without leaving a trace, and even used Qi to control their bodies and fly in the air. They thought that Inner Qi was the foundation of cultivation.
Mo Wen came from a martial arts aristocratic family, so he had originally thought that it would be the case. However, after reading a large number of ancient classics, he realized that everything was not so. He discovered a very strange problem. Many top martial arts masters did not live long. Their lifespans were often very short. Their lifespans were even shorter than those of ordinary people who had never practiced martial arts.
However, some people who were not martial artists and only practiced some external martial arts to keep the body healthy could often live a long life.
In the beginning, he thought that martial artists liked to fight with others when they roamed the world, so they left many hidden injuries in their bodies. But later on, he realized that was not the case. After a large number of experiments and verification, Mo Wen found out that the root of everything was that martial artists neglected the cultivation of their bodies. Instead, they pursued the cultivation of Inner Qi too much, which harmed their bodies and destroyed their foundations.
Ever since he knew that martial arts people had fallen into the wrong path of cultivation, Mo Wen began to study some ancient classics and flipped through some ancient historical sects' inheritance. In the end, he discovered that the ancient people's cultivation all started from the body. They tempered it bit by bit and nurtured the essence. Only when they were full of energy would they start to cultivate their Inner Qi, and not from the beginning.
It was said that in ancient times, the cultivators could fly in the sky and burrow into the ground. They could overturn rivers and seas, compete with heaven and earth for longevity, and compete with the sun and moon for glory.
Although those were just legends, Mo Wen gradually believed them.
Later on, Mo Wen began to focus on the cultivation of his body. He repeated the process of refining essence into Qi. After a long time, he realized that the Inner Qi in his body had some slight changes, and his cultivation had unknowingly made a qualitative leap.
According to the ancient classics, this kind of Inner Qi was called Genuine Qi. Although the two seemed similar to ordinary Inner Qi, in reality, they were very different.
It was because he had cultivated Genuine Qi that his cultivation had greatly increased. Later on, Mo Wen often went to the wilderness and swamps, which were dangerous areas filled with ferocious beasts.
Mo Wen took a deep breath and began to practice a set of punches on the drill ground. The punches were strong and powerful. They were big and wide, but there was softness in the hardness, and it contained endless changes.
This punches was called Dragon Tiger Fist. It was a profound Inner Sect punching technique. Mo Wen had accidentally found it when he was traveling around the world.
This Dragon Tiger Fist had a profound concept. It looked simple, but it was difficult to master. Mo Wen had practiced for three years before he could barely master it.
With the Dragon Tiger Fist, Mo Wen was able to complete the process of refining essence into Qi and cultivate pure Genuine Qi.
The Dragon Tiger Fist had two punches: Tiger Roar and Dragon Roar. Between the punches, there was a faint sound of tiger roar and dragon roar.
The Dragon Tiger Fist was not a so-called martial arts move. It was a method of refining the body. It was particular about the accumulation of essence, blood, and vital Qi. It concentrated the essence of the whole body and transformed it into the fierce power of dragon and tiger. With a flip of the hand, the power was as heavy as a mountain. Although it was not a martial arts move, it could be combined with any move. It was ever-changing and terrifying.
Since Mo Wen had started practicing again, he naturally did not intend to take the wrong path. From the beginning, he focused on practicing his body and accumulating essence. He was not anxious for quick results.
Mo Wen had practiced the Dragon Tiger Fist to a small success in his previous life. Now that he was using it again, it was full of charm and had the taste of a vigorous dragon and a leaping tiger. Although the essence in his body was insufficient and there was no Genuine Qi, it faintly contained an imposing aura.
Refining the body to transform essence again, the process of practicing was naturally twice the result with half the effort. However, the process of refining the body to transform essence was not easy. If there was no opportunity, it might not even be completed in eight to ten years.
In his previous life, Mo Wen only had the cultivation of refining essence into Qi. Moreover, he did not have a deep understanding of this realm. As for refining qi into spirit, refining spirit into emptiness, and refining emptiness into the way, those were all illusory and legendary realms.
An hour passed unknowingly. Suddenly, a whistle sounded on the drill ground. Mo Wen knew that it was the reveille.
Indeed, after a while, a large number of soldiers came out of the dormitory and rushed into the drill ground to gather. It was time for the morning drill.
Other than those soldiers who had enlisted, there were of course university students who had come for the military training. Mo Wen's class had good discipline. Very soon, they appeared at the assembly point of the Third Company on the drill ground. Some people from the other classes also rushed over one after another.
However, the efficiency of the first drill was obviously not very high. It dragged on. Starting from the whistle, it took them 20 minutes to complete the assembly.
Naturally, Mo Wen was the first person to appear on the drill ground. When he arrived, the instructor named Zhang Lizheng was already standing on the drill ground like a pillar.
"From tomorrow onwards, after the reveille, all members of the class who are not able to assemble within 10 minutes will be punished to run five kilometers with heavy weights."
Instructor Zhang Lizheng glanced at the students who were hurriedly assembling and said in a steady and powerful tone. He was obviously not satisfied with the assembly time of 20 minutes. However, as it was the first day of military training, he did not start the punishment today.
