In order to get the ancient book, half of Li Shan's body was already in the passage. At this time, Li Shan gritted his teeth and quickly rushed into the passage which was only half the height of a person. The iron door immediately closed. From the time he rushed into the iron door to the time it closed, it didn't even take half a second. Obviously … Li Shan had practiced this move many times.
"Whew, whew."
Hiding in a small secret room which was only two or three square meters, Li Shan was slightly relieved.
"Fortunately, I have prepared. I believe that he won't kill me. Humph. "Li Shan sneered.
Li Shan had already considered what he should do if someone wanted to kill him. This small secret room stored many things such as bank cards to attract the assassin and then he could escape.
No matter what, Li Shan only believed in himself.
Also because of this almost watertight preparation, Li Shan has not fallen for more than 20 years.
"Hum ~ ~" Suddenly, the wide, five centimeter thick iron door suddenly flew towards him.
The five centimeter thick iron door could not be broken even by bullets. Even if Teng Qing Shan wanted to rely on brute force to break through this steel door, he would probably have to gather his strength and use the fiercest 'Tiger Cannon Fist'. However, he didn't need to do that, because … … breaking the latch was very easy.
A figure suddenly rushed in.
"Brother, you …" Li Shan wanted to say something.
"Puff." A very slight sound was heard. A bloody hole appeared on his temple.
Li Shan's eyes were wide open, motionless. His eyes were filled with unwillingness.
Teng Qingshan didn't look at him, turned around and quietly left.
*****
In the living room of Teng Qingshan's rented house.
"I don't know what this' Millennium Chronicle 'is about. This Liu Yan is indeed a great master in the period of the Republic of China. I know this." Teng Qingshan was curious. As he practiced the Internal Martial Arts, naturally, Teng Qingshan also knew some famous figures in history.
Liu Yan, nicknamed 'Willow Monkey God', was a rare great master of the Monkey Fist School. In those days, his status was equal to 'Tiger-Head Junior Guardian' Sun Lutang.
Since it was written by Liu Yan, Teng Qingshan naturally had the motivation to read it.
Opening this' Millennium Chronicle ', the words inside were all traditional characters. Because many ancient books were written in traditional characters, Teng Qingshan was taught by 'Teng Bolei'. Teng Bolei also lived abroad and knew traditional characters, so he naturally taught Teng Qingshan to write traditional characters. Reading this book of traditional characters, Teng Qingshan had no difficulty.
"I didn't know that this book of traditional characters", Teng Qingshan.
Teng Qing Shan quickly flipped through the book, because this "Millennium Chronicle" talked about some things in the history of the Thief Sect. Teng Qing Shan stopped after reading about one-third of the book. Because the title of this chapter turned out to be – The Millennium Evolution of the Martial Arts World.
"According to the historical records of the Stealing Sect and the Martial Arts World Chronicle I discovered, I found that from ancient times to the present, there are fewer and fewer people who can reach the Grandmaster Realm, and it is getting more and more difficult."
Reading this sentence, Teng Qingshan could not help but secretly nod.
"Also, the history of Internal Martial Arts, although all the major sects claim to have a thousand years, in fact, the longest history of Internal Martial Arts, 'Tai Chi', was also created by Zhang Sanfeng of Wudang in the Ming Dynasty, less than a thousand years ago. In the history of Huaxia, Internal Martial Arts only appeared in the last thousand years. What about the thousands of years before that? "
Reading this, Teng Qingshan could not help but sympathize.
Xia, Shang, Zhou, Spring and Autumn Warring States, Qin and Han, Three Kingdoms, Jin, Northern and Southern Dynasties, Sui and Tang …
In these dynasties, did people rely on brute force to fight?
Teng Qingshan did not believe it.
For example, those fierce generals in the Sui and Tang Dynasties could easily swing a stone lion weighing a thousand pounds with their hands. Waving a stone lion and lifting it were two different concepts. For example, an ordinary person could lift a hundred pounds of rice, but holding a ten pounds dumbbell in one hand and waving it casually, he would not feel comfortable.
To wave a stone lion weighing a thousand pounds, one must at least have the strength to lift ten thousand pounds.
Even the current Teng Qingshan had to use all of his strength to wave that kind of stone lion, and it was also impossible for him to fight for a long time.
During the Three Kingdoms Period, some fierce generals could rely on their own strength to rush into the midst of thousands of troops and kill people. This was simply incredible, a person's strength was limited, how could he ignore thousands of troops and horses?
"Yes, this is the history of Internal Martial Arts in the last thousand years, then what about the thousands of years before that?" Teng Qingshan was also puzzled, and continued to read.
"I have spent more than ten years to collect information, and finally, I have a clear inference in my heart."
"My inference is – since the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth has been sharply decreasing!"
Seeing this, Teng Qingshan could not help but feel very puzzled.
"According to a lot of information I have found, in the Spring and Autumn Period, Warring States Period, Qin and Han Period, there was no such thing as Internal Martial Arts. At that time, the experts absorbed the essence of heaven and earth, which is the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, and refined the Essence into Qi, causing their bodies to produce inner strength. As they practiced, the inner strength became stronger and stronger, opening up one meridian after another until they reached the culmination of the Postliminary Realm. "
"The inner strength experts who reached the culmination of the Postliminary Realm have surging inner strength and are extremely powerful."
"When the mysterious Niwan Palace is opened in the mind, they begin to refine the Qi into Spirit. This person's' Spirit 'can fuse with the inner strength and be tempered in the Dantian, gradually transforming into the Innate True Origin and becoming a powerful Innate Expert."
"The Innate Experts continuously refine their True Origin, and the True Origin is continuously tempered in the Dantian. The first stage is the Emptiness Core Realm, and when the True Origin condenses into a solid body, it is the second stage, the Solid Core Realm. After the Solid Core is tempered many times, it can reach the third stage, the Golden Core Realm. The Golden Core Innate Experts are the pinnacle experts! They have unimaginable strength. According to the ancient legends, those who could charge into thousands of troops and fight against tens of thousands of troops alone were all Innate Experts. "
When Teng Qingshan saw this, he felt that it was inconceivable!
How is this possible?
Postliminary? Innate?
This person's' Spirit 'and' inner strength 'can actually be combined into' Innate True Origin '.
The Innate Realm is actually divided into three stages, the Emptiness Core, the Solid Core, and the Golden Core?
"In ancient times, the so-called 'Golden Core Realm' referred to this. When one steps into the Golden Core Realm, that is when one truly reaches the peak."
Teng Qingshan nodded his head slightly.
This was probably the only explanation. Otherwise, some famous people in history, such as' Yue Nu 'and' Xiang Yu ', would not be able to explain why they were so powerful. Moreover, there were many records that called the ancient practitioners of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors as' Qi Practitioners'.
It was probably because they refined the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth.
Teng Qingshan continued reading.
"However, from the Sui and Tang Dynasties onwards, the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth began to decrease sharply.
"Therefore, the heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties should be the last batch of Super Experts. For example, Li Yuanba, Qin Qiong, and the others, only when they reach the Innate Realm can they wield a thousand-pound object and not feel tired. "The records in the book also resonated with Teng Qingshan.
He was already at the limit of the human world. With a stone lion in each of his hands, he could wield heavy objects and fight for a long period of time. Teng Qingshan asked himself if he could do it.
"And according to some of the records of the various sects, after the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the number of experts decreased. Later on, not even a single Innate Expert appeared. By the time the Song Dynasty began, even absorbing the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth and refining it into inner strength was almost impossible. "
Teng Qingshan sighed inwardly.
First, no one reached the Innate Realm. Later on, no one could cultivate at all.
"The fewer experts there are, the weaker the Song Dynasty is. Since absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to cultivate inner strength is not an option, then why not? The people of the Song Dynasty will naturally think of a way to take another path. "
Teng Qingshan nodded slightly.
"In ancient times, training physical strength was only done by unimportant people. That was because it was almost impossible to rely on physical training to produce inner strength. 'From the outside to the inside' was simply too difficult. "
"However, since it was impossible to simply absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to produce inner strength. Because of this, generations of peerless geniuses devoted themselves to it. As time passed, there were gradually people who could rely on a series of methods such as stance to produce inner strength. For example, the general of the Song Dynasty, Yue Fei, was a general who could produce inner strength. "
"However, during the Song Dynasty, the Internal Martial Arts was only in its embryonic form. Only a few geniuses could produce inner strength. As for opening all the meridians in the body and reaching the Grandmaster Realm, it was impossible. "
"After the short Yuan Dynasty and the early Ming Dynasty, Wu Dang Sect's Zhang SanFeng should be the first Grandmaster to cultivate the Internal Martial Arts to the peak. He opened all the meridians, muscles, skin, tendons, and bones. From this period onwards, the Internal Martial Arts system was finally perfected. Later on, Tai Chi, Xing Yi Martial Arts, Ba Gua Fist … many types of martial arts also appeared one by one. "
Teng Qingshan watched from beginning to end and couldn't help but sigh.
He could only sigh — —
The ability of humans to adapt to the environment was indeed very strong.
In ancient times, the Reiki of Heaven and Earth was abundant. People learned how to absorb the Reiki of Heaven and Earth to produce inner strength and even Innate True Origin.
However, when the Reiki of Heaven and Earth decreased sharply, what should humans do?
After hundreds of years of exploration, it was unknown how many talented people had wasted their youth to gradually create the Internal Martial Art!
In the modern era, the cultivation system of the Internal Martial Arts was already very perfect. Even the Godly Tiger Form Technique, Black Tortoise Boulder Energy, and Ichthyosaur Transformation, which were magical secret techniques that only Grandmasters could cultivate.
In the Spring and Autumn Period, Warring States Period, and Qin and Han Period, could the people of that time imagine that one could cultivate from the outside to the inside to this stage?
"Actually, the cultivation process is the process of 'Refining Essence into Qi' and 'Refining Qi into Spirit'. In ancient times, the 'Essence' of 'Refining Essence into Qi' referred to the essence of Heaven and Earth and the Reiki of Heaven and Earth. But now, the 'Essence' refers to the human body's blood essence! "
Liu Yan described in the book, "After all, it can't be absorbed from the outside. It can only be absorbed from the human body's blood essence. Therefore, most of the experts who cultivate the Internal Martial Arts are very big eaters. It's normal for them to eat half a roasted lamb in one meal because they need to refine a large amount of blood essence. Naturally, they need to eat more. "
Teng Qingshan nodded to himself.
Indeed, he himself was a big eater.
To cultivate the Internal Martial Arts, the first requirement was to have a strong body and sufficient blood essence. When the blood essence reached a certain level, it could be gradually refined into inner strength.
