(Everyone, I need all kinds of support for my new book.)
The Four Keys of Forging: Light, Heavy, Fast, and Slow.
After listening to Chen Wuhou's explanation, Chen Zong grasped the basics.
"That's all. The rest depends on your own practice." Chen Wuhou said, "When you're almost done, you can start a fire and forge ordinary iron blocks."
After that, Chen Wuhou turned around and left. He had his own task. As for whether Chen Zong could grasp it or not, it had nothing to do with him.
"Thank you, brother." Chen Zong said politely and began to think. To put it bluntly, the Four Keys of Forging was nothing more than mastering the application of power through the control of the body. Of course, it was easy to say, but difficult to do.
The human body was very mysterious. It was made up of countless tiny structures. It was almost impossible to completely master one's own body.
Chen Chuyun taught Chen Zong the Eighteen Basic Movements and the Three-word Formula of Speed, Accuracy, and Steadiness. In essence, it was also to train the control of the body and the mastery of one's own power.
After being transformed by the mysterious sword point and going through conscious training, Chen Zong was very good at controlling his own power.
He first simulated it in his mind, then picked up the hammer and tried.
The hammer was very heavy, weighing at least 25 kilograms. However, it was nothing for Chen Zong, who had the strength of 500 kilograms. But the difficulty of wielding this kind of hammer was that it was difficult to wield it for a long time without sufficient endurance.
On the first day, Chen Zong did not start a fire. Instead, he repeatedly pondered over the Four Keys of Forging. He analyzed it bit by bit and used his own way to understand and master it.
Then he left and went to the dining hall to have a meal. After that, he went to a corner of the martial arts field to practice swordsmanship.
The seven movements of the first level of the Diffraction Swordsmanship were performed in succession. The power of Qi and blood surged as if it was going to split into two. As he slashed with his sword, two streaks of sword light left clear traces in the air.
He practiced in reverse.
As he practiced, Chen Zong could not help but think of the Four Keys of Forging.
Especially after he had consecutively cultivated the three sword techniques to the Minute Subtlety stage, Chen Zong gradually developed his own understanding of martial arts cultivation.
"No matter what kind of martial arts practice, no matter how it is practiced, the foundation lies in the control and application of power.
"It's the same for swordsmanship, and it's the same for forging."
As he pondered, Chen Zong's eyes lit up, and the mysterious sword tip in the space between his eyebrows trembled slightly. He felt that he was gaining insights one after another, but his body didn't stop. He was still practicing the seven movements of the first level of the Diffraction Swordsmanship.
Over and over again!
Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind. The dark clouds parted to reveal the bright moon. Chen Zong paused and withdrew his sword. Then, his body trembled slightly. In an instant, he seemed to have made seven different changes. His Qi and blood changed and surged. He thrust out his sword, which turned into two sword lights that pierced through the air.
"I see."
"The guided cultivation allows one's body to familiarize itself with the way the Vitality Force operates. When one reaches the peak, one only needs to control the Vitality Force with one's mind and instantly connect the seven transformations according to the guided cultivation method."
To put it bluntly, the difference between before and after initiation was that the former used the body's movements to guide the flow of Qi and Blood while the latter used the mind to guide the flow of Qi and Blood.
Without a doubt, his will was like a bolt of lightning that flashed by. Naturally, his guidance of Qi and blood would be much faster.
So far, it was the fourth day of practicing the Diffraction Swordsmanship, and the first level had been initiated.
On the way back to his house, Chen Zong was still thinking about the essence of the swordsmanship.
"Chen Zong, I've already initiated the first level of the Multiple Mountains Fist Art. Come and fight with me." Chen Guzhan came up to him and blocked his way. Chen Fenghua also came with him.
"I've also initiated the first level of the Water Splitting Blade Art. I'd like to have a try with you." Chen Fenghua smiled.
These two guys were still holding a grudge against Chen Zong. When they hadn't initiated the first level of the Inferior Human Rank Martial Art, they didn't have the confidence to defeat Chen Zong, so they didn't challenge him. Now that they had initiated the first level of the Inferior Human Rank Martial Art, Chen Zong was definitely no match for them.
"Let's go." Without saying anything, Chen Zong turned around and walked towards the nearest ring. He was itching to try the first level of the Diffraction Swordsmanship.
"Chen Zong, let me tell you, after becoming a Martial Artist, the strength of one arm is more than 1,500 pounds. When I use the first level of the Multiple Mountains Fist Art, I can smash a rockery into pieces with one punch." Chen Guzhan said proudly. He twirled his fist and said, "If you're scared, you can still give up now."
"In the past, you were also stronger than me. Didn't you still lose?" Chen Zong laughed.
"Don't tell me you've also initiated the first level of the Diffraction Swordsmanship." Chen Fenghua joked.
"You'll know soon enough." Chen Zong answered with a smile, which made Chen Guzhan and Chen Fenghua's hearts skip a beat. They had a bad feeling. Immediately, they encouraged themselves.
It was impossible to reach the first level of the Diffraction Swordsmanship in only four days. As far as they knew, the fastest time for a disciple of the Clan Hall to practice the first level of the Inferior Human Rank Martial Art was fifteen days.
After giving themselves a boost of courage, the two of them walked more firmly.
"I'll go first." Chen Guzhan jumped into the ring, followed by Chen Zong. Chen Fenghua stood below the ring and watched.
"I'll test your current strength first. Take my fist." It was unknown when Chen Guzhan had put on a pair of black boxing gloves on his fists. The surface of his fists was embedded with iron plates. His strong body rushed out, and his fist shattered the air, bringing along an astonishing wind pressure as it blasted towards Chen Zong.
The strength of 1,500 pounds suddenly broke out. It was very terrifying.
The sword light was dazzling. It broke through the air and almost touched Chen Guzhan's arm. It was aimed at his shoulder, forcing Chen Guzhan to withdraw his fist and dodge.
Then, there was no "then".
Chen Zong suppressed Chen Guzhan with his sword, forcing him to retreat and dodge constantly. He could not find a chance to fight back.
"Stop, stop, stop!" Chen Guzhan shouted helplessly.
He thought that since he became a martial artist a few months earlier than Chen Zong, he should be more powerful than him. He did not expect that he would be at a disadvantage as soon as he started fighting. It was too unreasonable.
Chen Guzhan did not know that Chen Zong had practiced three sword techniques to the Imperceptible Realm. His control of his own strength and the rhythm of the battle had reached a new height. Unless Chen Guzhan had a similar breakthrough, or completely suppressed Chen Zong in terms of absolute strength, he would not be a match for him.
"Next, I'm going to perform the Multiple Mountains Fist Technique. It's very powerful. You have to be careful." Chen Guzhan said seriously. He gathered his strength and concentrated. His Qi and blood surged as he punched.
"Mountain Crush!"
With a loud roar, the fist that Chen Zong sent out seemed to rapidly grow larger in front of his eyes. It was as if a mountain had descended from the sky and ruthlessly smashed down. That kind of pressure made it difficult for Chen Zong to move.
From Chen Fenghua's point of view, Chen Guzhan punched at Chen Zong. The shadow around his fist was like a mountain, expanding to one meter in size.
"Light-splitting Shadow!"
With a low roar, Chen Zong's body swayed slightly. His fine iron sword broke through the air and turned into two dazzling sword lights.
The sword lights were shattered. Chen Guzhan's mountain fist shadow dissipated. Only his fist was still punching at Chen Zong. The fine iron sword shook like a long whip and hit Chen Guzhan's fist hard, making a sound of metal clashing.
The sword light flashed continuously. The sword hit the back of Chen Guzhan's hand, wrist, and arm again and again, causing him great pain.
"Stop, stop, stop. I admit defeat." Chen Guzhan desperately retracted his arm, but found that Chen Zong's sword seemed to be everywhere. He could only shout again.
"You've practiced the first level of Light-splitting Sword Technique to the Beginner level?" Chen Guzhan asked in shock while rubbing his arm.
"Just the Beginner level." Chen Zong answered honestly.
"Haha, I have something to do. I'll leave first." Chen Fenghua's handsome face twitched slightly. He let out a dry laugh and turned to leave quickly.
Four days!
In just four days, he had practiced the first level of Low-class Mortal Realm Sword Technique to the Beginner level. This kind of monster, whoever wanted to fight with him, he didn't want to be tortured.
It was obvious that Chen Fenghua was traumatized by his repeated defeats when he was still a Martial Disciple.
"I'll fight with you when I get a pair of arm guards." Chen Guzhan also jumped down from the ring and ran away.
Chen Zong was speechless. He shook his head and smiled. He put his sword back into the scabbard and also jumped down from the ring and walked towards his room.
"When practicing Foundation Building Martial Arts, weapons usually have more advantages. But for Mortal Realm Martial Arts, as long as they are of the same level, they all have their own advantages."
"When operating the Qi and blood, the body's strength will be enhanced. For example, the fourth level of the Qi and blood realm will increase by about a thousand pounds. But it's not absolute. Some people can better control their strength and can reach a thousand pounds or even more. But some people can't and can only increase it by seven hundred pounds or eight hundred pounds."
"The Qi and blood operation of Low-class Martial Arts is different from the operation of Martial Arts. The focus is on the instantaneous burst, which is a kind of consumption. Martial Arts cultivate and strengthen the Qi and blood, aiming to be continuous and stable. Therefore, the power released by Low-class Martial Arts is more powerful. It's normal for it to be a few times more powerful."
"Therefore, the power of Low-class Martial Arts is equal to the power released by the body's own strength and the unique way of Qi and blood operation."
"Chen Guzhan's arm has a strength of one thousand five hundred pounds. The increase of Qi and blood is equivalent to one thousand pounds. The instantaneous burst of the first level of Multiple Mountains Fist Technique at the Beginner level can increase it by at least ten percent. The total amount can reach two thousand six hundred pounds. This is the theoretical upper limit."
"My arm strength is one thousand pounds. The first level of Diffraction Sword Technique can also increase my Qi and blood strength by ten percent, which is two thousand one hundred pounds. I'm not as good as Chen Guzhan."
Just now, when the Diffraction Shadow Sword collided with Chen Guzhan's Mountain Crush, the two sword lights were directly shattered. Chen Guzhan still had strength left. This was proof.
But Chen Zong felt that even if his strength was not as good as his opponent's, there was still room for improvement.
"The Diffraction Shadow Sword Technique at the Beginner level has two sword lights on the left and right. It's equivalent to attacking two different parts of the target at the same time. It can also attack two targets at the same time. But if they are stacked together and only attack one target, will the power be stronger?"
