Cosmic Demon

Chapter 23: Body is like a feather, life is like a weed

Seven limits of the physical body?
This was the first time Qin Shi heard this word.

He thought about it carefully, and Lao Liang started to stretch his muscles and back, and then taught him the eight sections and nine joints, how to capture the qi, and other training steps.

Eh, it seems they all match!

"What are the seven limits of the physical body, Mr. Liang? The textbooks of Xinyi Middle School about the profession of "martial artist" never mentioned it."

Qin Shi showed curiosity at the right time.

He is now like a talented athlete picked from thousands of miles away, and has been noticed by the former coach of the city team.

Naturally, you have the confidence and qualifications to bargain!
"Qin Shi, can you tell me how long Dongxia has existed?"

Lao Liang suddenly raised a common sense question that anyone could answer as long as they had not missed out on the nine-year compulsory education.

"It has been nine hundred thousand years since the name of 'Dongxia' was established and the ancestral star was unified. During this period, it has experienced several major upheavals and changes, making the ancient feudal system a thing of the past and sweeping the rent-seeking aristocracy into the garbage heap.

Incompetent emperors have been hanged, and ambitious rebels have been executed. If we put aside the vast ancient history that cannot be contained in a library, and only discuss the current "Dongxia Republic".

So, it is very young, only nine thousand years old, and still an immature 'child'."

Qin Shi’s response was quite perfect and was the standard answer in the history question set.

Lao Liang nodded:
"I have only been to school for a few years, so I know nothing about these things. The reason I asked you is because the specific origins of the seven limits of the physical body involve some mysteries in past history.

The first generation of Dongxia's Martial God was named 'Yan Haishan'. He was recognized as the founder of traditional martial arts and the founder of the martial arts path.

But few people know that he is also the first human to fully open the seven limits of the physical body and step into the legendary level. "

hiss!
Qin Shi couldn't help but take a breath.

Is it so powerful?
Is it related to the first generation of Martial God?

He showed his shock and horror in a timely manner, providing sufficient emotional value to encourage Lao Liang to continue speaking.

“Yan Haishan himself has said more than once that he only discovered the ‘Seven Limits of the Flesh’, not that he created them. As for the specific details, they have not been circulated to the public.

Later, the Old Martial Age flourished and reached its peak, and gradually a saying emerged: the ancestors of Dongxia were born with strong bones and long lifespans, almost like gods.

But as time went by and the times changed, the once noble and respected blood of the True Dragon became diluted, and the extraordinary talent faded and disappeared, gradually becoming weak. "

Lao Liang spoke this mysterious story, which sounded like a piece of nonsense written on the street, quite seriously, with a hint of longing in his eyes.

“Let’s not discuss the truth of this statement. Anyway, many masters of traditional martial arts with amazing talents firmly believe that the seven limits of the physical body are a shackle that binds the mortal body.

As long as the restrictions are broken through through secret methods, the original blood of the Dongxia ancestors can be extracted and transformed into the mythical holy Buddha! "

After all this fuss, it turns out that the old martial arts school believes in superstition and reverting to one's ancestors?

Do you think the older something is, the more powerful it is? Wouldn't that mean everyone would go digging for remains of civilization?

No wonder it was replaced by Xinwu.

Qin Shi suddenly realized.

It is impossible for the Education Commission to ask schools to organize students to carry shovels and hoes and search for tombs all over the world for dungeons.

The style of painting is weird just thinking about it!
From this perspective, the old weapons are destined to be buried in the corner of history.

The rise of new weapons, their promotion and popularization among the entire population is an unstoppable trend.

"You are an excellent student who has received new martial arts education. I understand what you think. But there must be a reason for the existence of the old martial arts. The old martial arts are indeed outdated, but it was once glorious and gave birth to several half-step martial god-level lives.

Furthermore, the new drug is not without its shortcomings. At present, drug use is rampant, supplements are rampant, and there is a lack of supervision. It is an indisputable fact that large pharmaceutical companies are taking advantage of this to make profits. "

Lao Liang sighed:

"I don't force you to become a supporter of Jiuwu, I just hope you can try this path. Those expensive training halls and powerful energy liquids are unaffordable for any student in Jiuchang Street. Jiuwu is the only viable option."

Qin Shi did not make a hasty decision. He thought for a long time and asked slowly:
"Teacher Liang, what do we need to do to break the old martial arts limit?"

"Hone yourself, accumulate experience, fight hard and have a little luck."

Lao Liang held up four fingers. "You have a talent for polishing yourself, a good physique, and are strong enough. You also have an excellent talent for fighting, which is particularly rare.

As for background and luck, I will find a way to solve the former. If I can keep two of the four, I am a genius!"

Qin Shi grinned and asked casually:
"If all four are present, what is it called?"

Lao Liang uttered two words lightly, firmly:
"Tianjiao!"

I wonder if I can get the title of "Genius" and really impress Lao Liang by unlocking achievements through the monument?

Qin Shi's eyes lit up and he was filled with longing.

"I advise you to stop dreaming. Background is something that is determined from birth. Among the first generation of ten heroes, the Stone Buddha He Lanchan was praised as the most talented, while the Great Demon King Qi Wuxiang had the highest achievement.

Why didn't He Lanchan do what Qi Wuxiang did? The reason was simple. The former grew up in the most remote garbage area in Yazhou. Before the age of twelve, he had to worry about having enough food.

The latter is the direct grandson of the Qi family in Haizhou and has never been hungry in his life.

On my tenth birthday, I received a rare twin precious tree as a gift. It is a rare item from outside the region that can nourish vitality and prolong life. "

Lao Liang seemed to admire the Stone Buddha He Lanchan very much and regarded him as an idol. Every time he finished praising him, he would also put down Qi Wuxiang:
“If the two people’s situations were reversed, whether there would still be a Qi Tianwang who won four championships is hard to say.

But there is no doubt that Dongxia will definitely produce a He Wushen who will dominate his contemporaries!

Unless the "Qin" in your name refers to the "Qin" of Qin Shuai from Dongxia.

Otherwise, it would be more practical to do more good deeds on weekdays and accumulate some positive luck for yourself."

There are nine marshals in total in the Dongxia Republic. Marshal Qin sits on the third and looks at the second. He is like a white jade pillar supporting the sky, a purple gold beam spanning the sea, and holding up half of the Milky Way.

Even if you go back hundreds of generations, you may not be able to get close to them.

Qin Shi curled his lips, indifferent to Lao Liang's cold water:

"Let's get back to the point, Mr. Liang. You said before that old martial arts are harmful to the body and shorten one's life, and are prone to accumulating chronic illnesses and leaving behind a root of disease.

If I follow you on this path of breaking the limits of my physical body, I will die young and not live past the age of 28, right? I am the only male in the Qin family, and I have to rely on me to carry on the family line."

Lao Liang smiled:
“Of the first ten heroes who followed the old martial arts path, there are quite a few who are still alive today, but most of them are unwilling to show up in public.

Even many top martial artists have turned to practicing new martial arts in the hope of making further progress. The new and the old are not contradictory, but rather coexist with each other.

As for what I said before about the harm to the body and the loss of life... don't you think about why the shackles of the physical body are called "the end of time"? "

Qin Shi pondered the deep meaning behind Lao Liang's words and asked tentatively:
"Breaking the limit can extend life?"

Lao Liang nodded gently:

“The first generation of Martial God Yan Haishan has already proven that breaking the limit and knocking on the body barrier can achieve a substantial increase in vitality, rejuvenating people and bringing spring back to life.

As long as you can break the shackles, all the potential consumed by the body will be replenished at that moment."

It feels like a gamble of life, an all-in effort!
It turns out that everyone in the old martial arts school is a big shot?

Others spend money developing vitality, but they just risk their lives?
No wonder the Dongxia Education Commission and the Martial Arts Association want reforms!

Qin Shi's face twitched, but he no longer hesitated:
"Master Liang, please teach me!"

Traditional martial arts emphasize the inheritance between master and apprentice, which is sometimes more important than that between father and son.

When you call someone a master, you call someone an apprentice, and from then on the two become inseparable, passing on the torch.

When Qin Shi finally agreed, Lao Liang hesitated:
"Aren't you afraid that you will not be able to break the deadline, waste your years and life, and never recover from it?"

Qin Shi shook his head. He stood on the stands. Below were long, hard steps made of cement. The morning breeze blew across the empty playground, pressing down the withered weeds.

"Teacher Liang, I heard that you are from the Leiyun Electronics Factory and studied at the No. 5 Middle School? Then you should understand that there is a universally recognized principle in Jiuchang Street.

The path we take is never chosen by ourselves. Just like Brother Yuan and Brother Cheng, aren’t they afraid that if they join a gang, they will be hacked to death one day, or be put in jail for the boss?

In this land under our feet, life is never valuable, but opportunities are valuable! Opportunities must be fought for by oneself; life must also be changed by one's own hands! "
