"Backlash?" Geezer Shi was unusually serious. He chewed on the word and asked, "Let me ask you something. Do you want to be a martial artist or a cultivator in the future? Once you enter the high-ranked Dan stage, you can't regret it. "
Lou Cheng grew up watching professional martial arts competitions and was influenced by them day and night. He had a dream and a pure and passionate love. He answered without hesitation,
"Of course I want to be a martial artist!"
More importantly, the inheritance of the cultivators had been cut off. Relying on the records left behind to practice was twice the effort and half the effort. On the contrary, on the road of martial arts, there were teachers to guide you, lovers to consult, and so on. There were tons of relevant materials and companions to learn from and discuss with!
"Very good." Geezer Shi praised and said, "Then you must always remember that martial arts is the main thing and cultivation is the secondary thing. Stones from other mountains can be used to improve jade, but it doesn't mean that it can be the jade you want. On the road of cultivation, the most taboo is to be indecisive, unwilling to make a choice, and unable to distinguish between priorities. Okay, tell me how you use it to digest it."
Lou Cheng said carefully, "It can help me recover from fatigue. I use this to constantly squeeze myself and improve my physical strength …"
Before he could finish, Geezer Shi said unhappily,
"Sure enough! Back then, this old man was out of breath because of you! "
Without waiting for Lou Cheng's explanation, he sighed and said, "Not bad. You know how to purposefully use the adventure to improve your own ability instead of relying purely on the adventure. With such a temperament and willpower, I didn't take you as my disciple in vain. Hey, continue!"
Didn't you interrupt me? Lou Cheng complained in his heart. After thinking about what he had just said, he said, "It can also help me enter meditation and let me quickly conceal spirit and qi. After half a year of hard practice, I can enter meditation skillfully without it. I'm even close to the level of Dacheng, but I still can't achieve Inward Vision …"
Geezer Shi nodded slightly to confirm but didn't interrupt.
"In addition to these two points, when I use it to the limit, its balance will be broken and a little power will leak out. After the backlash, it will merge into my body and create a supernatural ability." Lou Cheng said honestly, "The first time it backfired, I almost died in Yanling."
"It's a bit like the physical invulnerability stage …" Geezer Shi said thoughtfully, "Longhu Immortal emphasizes the balance of ice and fire. The backlash of awakening the supernatural ability should be similar to the first time. With your current physical condition, you can try it.
. "Lou Cheng said weakly," I've tried it … it's similar to the backlash of awakening the supernatural ability of flame … "
The corner of Geezer Shi's mouth twitched. He was both annoyed and amused at the same time. "Brat, you've grown up! In philosophical terms, your subjective initiative is really strong! "
"Master, you also know philosophy?" Lou Cheng evaded the main point and dwelling on the trivial.
. "........
"Do you think I'm illiterate? En, since you've already awakened the Frost Special Ability, I'll be able to teach you a few things after your arm recovers. As for the second round of awakening, don't be anxious. Wait until your fleshly body's blood and Qi reaches the peak of the Body Refinement Realm, and you'll be able to release and retract it freely before you attempt it. At that time, remember to look for me. With me watching over you, no matter how bad it is, I'll be able to protect your little life! Tsk. Young people nowadays are so stupid and bold! "..
.. Lou Cheng felt guilty and didn't dare to respond.
"For the time being, you should digest it at your own pace. Let me think about how to extract the essence and discard the impurities, and integrate the things of cultivation into martial arts." Geezer Shi laughed self-deprecatingly. "I have to be thick-skinned and ask for some research materials."
"Research materials?" Lou Cheng asked curiously.
Geezer Shi said with a faint smile, "Do you think Longhu Immortal was the only cultivator in ancient times? The related heritage was discovered one after another. That's why we can be sure that this path leads to the same destination as martial arts. But we can't break free from the shackles. Because we live in the mountains all year round, the heritage is inevitably cut off. "
"The military has collected a lot of relics and has a deeper understanding of cultivation. They have also specially selected a group of volunteers to walk this path for observation. Hehe, if the things on paper are not put into practice, they are just empty talk."
Speaking of this, he sighed. "But the military's information won't be of much use to you. You want to walk the path of martial arts that incorporates part of the characteristics of cultivation, but it doesn't coincide with their current direction. You still have to see what my old friend can learn from the relics of Longhu Immortal. Don't be too anxious. Focus on training your body to the peak first."
"Yes, Master." Lou Cheng answered sincerely. It would be a great gain for him if his master could watch over him the next time he squeezed Jindan.
Geezer Shi nodded and resumed his playful look. "Well, that's it. Go do what you need to do."
Lou Cheng was about to turn back to the locker room when he couldn't help but ask,
"Master, are you really not curious about this?"
Geezer Shi smiled and said, "Do you want to hear the truth or the lie?"
"What's the truth? What's the lie? "Lou Cheng asked with the mentality of getting to the bottom of the matter.
"The lie is that I've been in physical invulnerability for many years and my path has long been established. The things of cultivation can only be used as a reference or a temporary use. It can't directly promote my improvement. So even though I've cooperated with the military for many years, I still haven't paid much attention to their research on cultivation." Geezer Shi chuckled and said, "As for the truth, I'm old and can't take it anymore. Even if combining cultivation with other things can help me advance further, I don't dare to try it rashly. Isn't it better to have an old friend to lead the way and a lively lab rat like you to experience it? What you can get, I have plenty of channels to get. "
"That's true …" Hearing the truth, Lou Cheng was completely relieved and relaxed.
Geezer Shi took out a small flagon and took a sip. Humming a Chinese opera, he turned around and left leisurely.
Watching his master leave, Lou Cheng's mood was like the surface of a lake that calmed down after violent ups and downs. There were ripples in the calm and tranquility.
He suddenly sighed and felt an inexplicable sense of loss.
To him, the Jindan was the basis for rapid improvement in martial arts. It was the biggest and most unknown trump card and the secret that he was most unwilling to let others know. It made him appear unique and full of confidence.
When his master knew about its existence, he understood that similar things left behind by cultivators were rare but not only did they exist. He seemed to have lost that unique feeling and was no longer full of confidence, so it was inevitable that he felt lost.
But from another perspective, the Jindan itself contained too many dangers and uncertainties. With his master, a physical invulnerability Mighty One, watching over him, he would be much safer. What made him truly unique and confident was not the Jindan, but the tenacity, perseverance, temperament, confidence, and fighting talent that had been "awakened" by the Jindan.
They were his biggest reliance on his martial arts path!
After understanding this, Lou Cheng returned to normal and felt relaxed. It was as if he had removed a burden that had been hidden in his heart for a long time. He had removed the worry that he would lose his life due to the instability of the Jindan at any time.
He took a step forward, still calm and confident, and walked to the door of the locker room.
…
Geezer Shi left the martial arts arena and walked towards the teacher's dormitory. Suddenly, he made a sound and patted his head.
"Look at my memory. I forgot to ask the brat what he got."
"Forget it. If it's not a natal weapon, then it's an external cultivation elixir …"
…
When Lou Cheng entered the locker room, Yan Zheke had just come out of the shower. Her black hair was tied up with a black rubber band, looking fresh and attractive. Li Mao was walking back and forth excitedly, looking for someone to talk to. The sweat on his face had not disappeared. Obviously, he had not taken a shower yet. The others were busy with their own things.
Seeing Lou Cheng come in, Li Mao hurriedly shouted,
"Cheng, and everyone, it's my treat tonight. Let's go to the school restaurant to celebrate!"
He wanted to express his gratitude and happiness.
Yan Zheke took out the ointment from the cabinet and jokingly said, "Senior brother Li Mao, are you ignoring me and senior brother Sun Jian? We are also the protagonists today. If you want to treat, all three of us should treat! "
Sun Jian also echoed, "That's right. Li Mao, do you want to steal the credit? I'm the last fighter standing in the arena. I'm the leading fighter. How can I let you treat yourself? "
Lou Cheng and the others understood that they did not want Li Mao, who was from an ordinary family, to spend too much money, so they followed suit. Li Mao was moved and embarrassed, but finally he agreed.
"Let me help you rub the bruise?" Lou Cheng walked to Yan Zheke and took the ointment with a smile.
Yan Zheke pursed her lips and looked at him with a smile. She snorted and said,
"Then I'll try your skills!"
After that, she turned around and sat on the edge of the bench. She unbuttoned her cuffs and rolled up her sleeves, revealing a part of her snow-white skin. Perhaps because of her delicate skin, the few bruises and red swollen bruises looked terrible.
Lou Cheng picked up her wrist and applied the ointment on the red and swollen part of her fist. He rubbed it very carefully.
"Not bad …" Yan Zheke bit her lower lip with her white teeth and looked at the whirlpool on top of Lou Cheng's head. She smiled shyly.
"Of course. I rub it for myself every day after training. My proficiency is already full." Lou Cheng answered humorously, feeling relaxed and happy.
Yan Zheke saw Sun Jian, Lin Hua and the others leave one by one. Li Mao also entered the shower room to take a shower. She called in a low voice,
"Cheng …"
"Yes?" Lou Cheng raised his head and looked at the girl. He saw that her eyes were as gentle as water.
"Thank you …" Yan Zheke turned her head and looked to the side, whispering.
She did not thank him now, but before.
Lou Cheng smiled and said,
"Do we still need to say thank you between us?"
This was the answer that Yan Zheke pretended to be innocent before. Now that he used it, it immediately made the girl laugh and pout coquettishly. Lou Cheng looked at her and felt that he was "unique" again …
In this world, the only boy that Yan Zheke likes is me …
