Myths Begin From Boys' Gong

When Meng Zhao showed these two skills, he was full of sincerity. Even though Chen Xiaotao was an extremely picky person, he couldn't say anything.

She sighed, took out a blue-covered book from her bosom, stroked it carefully for a while, and said,
"These two martial arts are enough to exchange for the martial arts left by Brother Xian. This is the internal martial arts, Shenyun Gong, and the accompanying secret medicine, Lingyun Pills."

As he spoke, he handed the thing in his hand to Meng Zhao.

San Gouzi’s eyes almost popped out of his head, but he didn’t dare to do anything. He just stared at Meng Zhao eagerly.

Meng Zhao was also somewhat excited and happy. With this martial art, he would be able to gain a deeper understanding of the secrets of the Tianyuan Kingdom's martial arts. Combined with his own supreme celestial being from his previous life, and even his realization that was close to the level of gods and demons, it would be enough to make himself one of the strongest people in this world.

He didn't have time to go through all those red tapes. He took the so-called secret record of Shenyun Gong in his hand and started reading it.

According to what Zhou Zhihan told him, the practice of internal martial arts is the only way to unlock the human body's martial arts potential, activate the human body's spiritual storage, and cultivate inhuman martial arts.

In the practice of martial arts, there is no so-called realm, only stages.

The foundation of martial arts, fetal movement, great achievement and perfection are the four stages of martial arts practice. They are a reference for one's own practice, rather than the realm of martial arts.

At this moment, combining what Zhou Zhihan said with the essence of the Shenyun Gong in his hand, Meng Zhao suddenly had a general understanding of the martial arts of the Tianyuan Kingdom.

There are many martial arts in China, including the ways of blood, totems, horizontal training, and so on.

Tianyuan martial arts, because it lacks the vital energy of heaven and earth, and spiritual energy, can only take the path of tapping into the potential of the human body and unlocking the hidden power of the human body.

The core essence is that the human body is a great treasure, containing countless potentials waiting to be developed and strengthened.

The secret records of martial arts and the secret medicine of martial arts are equivalent to the method of development and the key to development.

In essence, it is equivalent to that everyone has extraordinary powers and abilities, but they are blocked and difficult to use.

Warriors are a group of people who break the shackles and release all the extraordinary potential of human beings.

Shenyun Gong contains many essentials of martial arts.

The first is the technique of visualization. The purpose of this technique is to comprehend the core essence of this skill, which is equivalent to establishing a center and theme, and everything should revolve around it.

The visualization image of Chanyun Gong is clouds. The “Chan” does not mean ginseng, but the “Chan” that means enlightenment.

By comprehending the clouds, he tried to control and master the power of clouds.

Visualization alone is, of course, not enough, so it must be combined with dynamic boxing skills, static standing meditation, and the power of secret medicine.

The three combined into one continuously stimulate the mysterious power within the medicine to strengthen one's physical body, qi and blood.

Of course, this alone is not enough to rely on, and it cannot create a distance between warriors and ordinary people.

Therefore, the art of visualization is also needed to gradually absorb the divine will and form of the clouds between heaven and earth, so that the human body can derive extraordinary abilities.

For example, one can exercise Qigong to activate the Shenyun Power cultivated in the body and create a strange scene of clouds and mist, which is an ability that truly surpasses that of ordinary mortals.

Even though Meng Zhao was a scholar, he still found it difficult to understand why such wonderful changes and reactions occurred.

The art of visualization should be the most important one, but without the skills of movement and stillness and the secret medicine, it would definitely be a castle in the air.

Just like a chemical reaction, when several different substances are combined together, a wonderful reaction occurs and a completely new substance is produced.

The same is true for Tianyuan martial arts.

Visualization, dynamic exercises, static exercises, and secret medicine, the four combined together become the true meaning of Tianyuan martial arts.

Moreover, Meng Zhao did not fully understand the reason behind this.

Different visualization techniques, different dynamic exercises, static exercises, and different secret medicines will produce different extraordinary abilities.

Could it be that this is simply the law of this world?

Unless you can truly understand the way of heaven in this world, it will be difficult to comprehend the mysteries contained therein!

After Meng Zhao read it, he praised it.

"True teaching can be conveyed in one sentence, false teaching can be conveyed in ten thousand books. This is the mystery of martial arts. It is truly magical!"

According to the Shenyun Gong, once you generate the Shenyun power, you can use the Shenyun power to perform the Zheyun Hand. When the two are combined, they can achieve the effect of one plus one being greater than two.

The Zheyun Hand was originally just a low- to medium-level martial art, and now that the two are combined, it can be considered a treasure among the best.

Meng Zhao also found it magical. The Tianyuan martial arts was quite mysterious. He really didn't know what achievements the number one person in history had made.

In addition, it is about the superposition and transformation of visualization, dynamic exercises, static exercises, and secret medicine.

Meng Zhao felt that anyone who could create an internal martial art was either a natural genius or had a lot of adventures. Ordinary people could only follow the advice of their predecessors and find it difficult to break away from it.

Chen Xiaotao nodded.

"I have been practicing this martial art for more than two years. I have gone through the foundation and fetal movement stages. Unfortunately, my aptitude is insufficient. Although I am still in the fetal movement stage, my progress is minimal. It is difficult for me to cultivate the Shenyun Power. I have even stopped taking medicine to practice the martial art!"

Meng Zhao asked Chen Xiaotao about the feeling of practicing the Chanyun Power, and he found it quite rewarding.

"Then I wonder if Sister Xiao Tao has Lingyun Pills in her hand right now?"

Don’t underestimate this small Lingyun Pill, it contains more than 30 medicinal ingredients. Although most of them are common herbs and the cost is not high, there are several main ingredients that are very precious.

The snow cloud flower that is said to be only visible on the top of Tianshan Mountain, the core of the brocade cloud tree that is only usable after ten years, and so on.

It's really not something that ordinary people can afford.

In Xiaohan Village, even though Wu Laodao practiced extremely inferior internal martial arts in the army, the secret medicine he took was relatively cheap, and ordinary medicine was still not enough to cover his expenses.

It can be seen that this secret medicine is extremely important and is an indispensable part of the martial arts of the Tianyuan Kingdom.

Chen Xiaotao nodded.

"There are twelve more. According to the secret records, one pill can last for a month. The medicinal power of this pill is long-lasting and lasts a very long time.

However, it is also based on personal constitution and endowment. I take this pill, and one pill can last me nearly two months, which shows that my endowment is indeed not good."

Meng Zhao smiled. According to his understanding of Shenyun Gong, the purpose of laying the foundation is to stimulate the potential of the human body and lay a cloud seed that falls into the Dantian.

This Dantian, which is equivalent to the land that nurtures seeds, is very critical.

When the cloud seed begins to move, that is, when the warrior reaches the stage of fetal movement, a special power will be generated, which is the cloud power.

This power is the foundation for transcending the mundane and practicing extraordinary martial arts.

It can also be called internal force, true energy, fighting spirit, chakra, etc. Anyway, although the core is different, the situation is similar and close. Chen Xiaotao has obviously cultivated to the fetal movement level, and the cloud seed has been planted in the dantian, but it has not been able to generate the cloud force. There are only two possibilities.

Firstly, she was indeed a piece of rotten wood. It was difficult for her to cultivate the Shenyun Power to perfection, and the Shenyun Power was even more out of reach.

But Meng Zhao felt that since Chen Xiaotao was able to learn martial arts without any guidance, she must have a certain talent for this martial art.

The second is that she was not practicing correctly. Either she did not fully comprehend something in the middle, or she saw no hope of cultivating the Chanyun Power and stopped taking the medicine, which made it difficult to accumulate energy. There were other reasons.

Meng Zhaodao,
"I want to practice this Shenyun Kung now, and I hope Sister Xiaotao can sell these twelve Lingyun Pills to me."

Chen Xiaotao is not a stingy person.

"I don't mind selling it to you, but I hope you can help me figure out what's wrong with my practice."

Meng Zhao nodded,
"This is as it should be. Sister Xiao Tao, don't worry. I personally think that it's not that you can't cultivate to Shenyun Jin, but something went wrong in the process. Maybe you didn't continue to take the medicine, which caused the accumulation and transformation to be interrupted halfway, or there was a mistake in your understanding of some cultivation. This is why a slight mistake can lead to a huge mistake."

Chen Xiaotao seemed to be prepared and took out a small porcelain vase with blue and white patterns from her sleeve.
"Inside this is the Lingyun Pill that I refined. The medicinal properties are deeply hidden and have not been lost."

Meng Zhao was eager to try it out, so he asked Chen Xiaotao to prepare a quiet room for him and then went to practice.

The martial arts of this world were much more mysterious than he had imagined. What Zhou Zhihan had told him before was only the tip of the iceberg.

He was no longer completely confident that he could create the most powerful martial arts skill in this world by relying on his previous life's foundation. He could only think about it more.

The three dogs who were left behind were in trouble and looked at Chen Xiaotao, feeling guilty.

Chen Xiaotao seemed very calm and said,
"Don't worry, I won't blame you. Li Zheng seems to have many secrets. He got the Shenyun Gong from me, so he should be very confident that he can master it. As long as you follow him closely, your future will be limitless."

Chen Xiaotao saw this very clearly.

Regardless of other things, just relying on those two martial arts, Soft Cloud Sword Technique and Spirit Snake Hand, is enough for Li Zheng to make a career. Moreover, now that he has acquired the Canyun Skill, it has made up for his last shortcoming.

Especially today, Li Zheng brought San Gouzi with him, and it was obvious that he wanted to give him a share of the pie. In the future, I'm afraid that these three dogs will also have a share of the Chanyun Gong.

Since he is a potential stock, Chen Xiaotao doesn't want to make the relationship between the two too awkward.

Chen Xian did leave some legacy, but after all, he was dead and had been dead for several years.

People like San Gouzi who can appreciate his kindness are ultimately a minority among the minority.

People cannot ask for repayment for a favor, otherwise the favor will be exhausted.

San Gouzi said with some shame,

"Sister Xiao Tao, I, I, I really have no choice. We really need this martial art right now. We have never thought of harming you. To return Brother Chen Xian's child, I, I..."

From the way he spoke, it is clear that no matter how he tried to whitewash himself with words, San Gouzi still felt guilty.

After all, what are their difficulties?
No one forced them to do so, and nothing important happened.

It's simply unwillingness and ambition that's at work.

"Okay, you don't have to be like this. If you really appreciate how good Brother Xian was to you, then in the future, if you have the chance, just help my son. That will be enough.

Also, only you two can know about Brother Xian and me. Otherwise, I won’t be able to stay in Xuezhu Village and Xiaohan Village any longer!"

Chen Xiaotao had no choice.

Even if she learned some martial arts, it doesn't mean that she can do whatever she wants.

For example, the etiquette and customary rules in the village cannot be broken.

She wanted to raise her son, so staying in Xuezhu Village was the best option.

There are a lot of industries here, and she has enough money and material things to ensure that her son will have something to rely on for his future practice, instead of having a penny to make a hero fall.

If we leave here, we will lose the steady output. Even if we have gold and silver for a short period of time, it will be difficult to pass it on to our family.

San Gouzi quickly expressed his opinion.

"Don't worry, Sister Xiaotao. I treat Chen Xian as my eldest brother, and his son is my nephew. If I have the ability, I will definitely not ignore him!"

The two of them exchanged pleasantries and their relationship became closer. Some of the previous dirty tricks disappeared after both sides made deliberate efforts in communication.

Meng Zhao was in the room prepared by Chen Xiaotao, quietly pondering the key points of the Chanyun Gong.

In fact, some words in this martial arts secret record are quite straightforward and simple, and it is because of this that Chen Xiaotao was able to practice step by step.

It is not known whether it was originally like this, or whether Chen Xian translated it into vernacular and sent it to his wife and children in order to facilitate their practice.

He had some opinions on these, because the most initial version of a martial art represented the most profound and original mystery, and was also the highest achievement.

Later generations made far-fetched interpretations and annotations to it, but in fact, they added their own understanding of this martial art, and it has lost its most original and fundamental mystery.

If later generations practice this annotated version, they will deviate a lot from the original version of martial arts, and of course it will be difficult for them to comprehend the highest achievement.

For this point, you can refer to the Sunflower Manual.

The most original version, of course, is the one from the Shaolin Temple in Putian. Later, Yue Su and Cai Zifeng memorized them separately, so there must be some missing parts in it, so it became an incomplete version.

What Lin Yuantu tricked out of the two people was a fragment, to which he added his own insights and understandings, which could be considered a fragment within a fragment.

It's not necessarily weaker in power than the incomplete version of the Sunflower Manual, but it's definitely far from the original version.

Therefore, Meng Zhao would rather practice the original version of the Chanyun Gong, but unfortunately, he can't do that now.

However, it doesn't matter. He is not an ordinary warrior. Even if he practices step by step, he will probably gain something from it.

When he had figured it out, Meng Zhao took out a Lingyun Pill and swallowed it.

The next moment, he started standing in the room by himself.

This kind of standing meditation is also the essence of Chanyun Gong, and is called Liuyun Standing Meditation.

Clouds gather and disperse at random, floating here and there. If you capture their essence, they become flowing clouds.

As soon as he mastered the standing meditation, Meng Zhao suddenly felt a surge of heat in his body, which flowed through his meridians and followed the Liuyun Posture, forming a misty cloud that rose up and spread throughout his body. He felt as if he was floating in the air and ascending to heaven!
This heat was not without reason. It was the special medicinal power that was slowly emitted from the Lingyun Pill, combined with the qi and blood from the standing meditation.

The whole process was extremely smooth and fluid, almost completed in one go, without any stagnation or stiffness. (End of this chapter)
