Ke Xue: He mastered the steel-cutting divine skill at the start.

However, Yoko Okino, who knew how to get along with people, naturally stepped forward and invited Kogoro, which made Kogoro very happy.

The curtain has finally come to a true close.

Chapter 140 Breathing Through the Pores and the Marrow Cleansing Method

In the blink of an eye, life returned to normal. In fact, school had started some time ago, but Miyazaki Yu did not go to school.

The Sword Master Trial is of paramount importance to him right now, and he cannot afford to be negligent or careless in the slightest. Therefore, Miyazaki Yu simply took a break from school for a period of time to strive to improve his skills to the next level.

Shinichi Kudo was frustrated to be assigned to first grade, which made him extremely depressed, but there was nothing he could do about it.

He had no choice but to obediently go to class, and was forcibly dragged into the so-called Junior Detective League by a few elementary school students, namely Ayumi Yoshida, Genta Kojima, and Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya.

After learning all this, Miyazaki Yu couldn't help but laugh. It was so funny that the famous detective was being forced by a few elementary school students. With the addition of this group of teenagers, Conan's life was sure to be much more colorful.

What pleased him most was that after the Yoko Okino incident ended, he took the opportunity to remind Ran, subtly reminding her that although Conan was a child, he was still a boy and should be more careful in his daily life.

If it's inconvenient, you can leave Conan at his home.

This made the girl blush. How could this guy say such things to her? Was he jealous? Jealous of even a child? This guy is really something!

However, Ran realized that Miyazaki Yu was right. Although Conan was young, he was still a boy, so it was right to be careful. Kids these days are very mature, unlike when she was a child and didn't understand anything.

However, Ran's gaze towards Miyazaki Yu changed somewhat, taking on a scrutinizing quality.

This is the change in a woman's mindset. In fact, whether it is a man or a woman, possessiveness is a part of love. Emotions are always intertwined. Xiaolan's subtle changes are the changes in her feelings for Miyazaki Yu.

This made Miyazaki Yu very happy, knowing that with his tireless efforts, Ran would also begin to soften.

With Conan's appearance, the frequency of cases will increase, so what he needs to do now is to improve his strength and status as much as possible, and becoming a swordsman is imperative.

In the hall, Miyazaki Yu sat quietly cross-legged, his famous sword, Hengyun Duan, resting on his lap, his mind blank.

As his Qi and blood have increased, his internal vision has reached a higher level, and it is now much clearer. Many organs that were previously invisible can now be clearly seen in outline.

He appears to be still, but in reality, all the muscles in his body are trembling at a very low frequency—this is the result of his efforts over the past few days!

He discovered a problem when he used a medicinal bath to wash his body: the combined stimulation of the medicinal bath and internal vision could cause the blood and qi to move in a regular manner.

So he deliberately trained himself to produce this change even without the stimulation of medicinal baths, so that his body could be exercised at any time. Although the effect was not as good as soaking directly in precious medicinal herbs, the advantage was that there were no side effects.

Believe it or not, he actually made it through!

If you think about it carefully, you'll understand. The so-called martial arts in reality are actually techniques that use various movements to coordinate and train the body.

There's a saying that goes, "Practicing martial arts without cultivating internal strength is a waste of time in old age." This means that if you only practice the moves but don't develop real internal strength, you won't be able to hone your body and make the power of key movements come naturally, and thus the power of the moves won't be fully realized.

Just like many martial arts require stance training or horse stance, that's exactly the case.

When a person is practicing Zhan Zhuang (standing meditation), their entire body is exercised. Their lower body, namely their two legs, becomes as stable as a mountain, and their upper body becomes full of strength.

For example, like Zhao Jian, who fought against Huo Yuanjia in the Li version of Huo Yuanjia, what he was most proud of was his horse stance skills developed over more than ten years.

You can train until you're firmly rooted and as stable as a mountain. If you're about to lose a fight, immediately switch back to a horse stance, stabilize your base, and give yourself another chance to exert force.

He used a combination of internal visualization and medicinal baths to stimulate his body, along with thousands of trials, to find the most suitable route for stimulating his Qi and blood.

Once the most suitable exercise method for oneself is found, efficiency will naturally improve rapidly.

This is the true way to learn. It requires finding the method that best suits you. You can put in 100% effort in the process of finding the method, and once you find the method, your efficiency will improve dramatically.

In reality, many people's learning methods are actually wrong. They are lazy when looking for strategic direction, but they are diligent at the tactical level. They seem to work very hard, but in fact, they are using tedious and inefficient methods.

It might even have the opposite effect, wasting a lot of your energy without achieving any real progress.

Now, Miyazaki Yu has not only found the right direction and the right path, but he is also putting in a lot of hard work. What's most infuriating is that he even has a cheat code!

In this way, it would be impossible for him not to become powerful.

Moreover, his method is impossible for others to replicate. Even if others can use internal vision, they still cannot do it, because what supports him in completing this method is not only internal vision, but also the memory palace, which gives him extraordinary memory.

He used mental calculation to mentally calculate various methods for transporting qi and blood, and used his abnormal memory to record them one by one.

Even if someone else could see inside their body, finding these methods would be extremely difficult, almost impossible.

Any form of self-cultivation and learning is actually a process similar to climbing a mountain. Only by finding a rhythm and a method that suits you, and by persevering on that path, can you go further.

At this moment, his skin was a dark red beneath, and every inch of his skin was contracting and changing in various ways under constant stimulation, like earthworms.

Just like Miyazaki Hayao himself, he turned into thousands of tiny people, each of them lifting weights and undergoing special training.

In his internal vision, the three layers of skin tissue—epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue—gradually became clearer and more distinct.

Normally, it would take a long time to exercise and fully activate the body before the pores could close. But now, under his control, they began to open and close.

Just like tiny mouths, the dirt hidden in the pores is gradually being expelled from them.

Miyazaki Yu calls this process 'taking a bath,' and it must be the most thorough way to take a bath in the world. All the dirt accumulated in the hair follicles cannot be washed out by ordinary scrubbing, but at this time it is directly expelled through the pores.

Furthermore, Miyazaki Yu discovered that by freely controlling the opening and closing of his pores, he could even directly absorb oxygen from the air. In other words, he could now hold his breath underwater for a long time without suffocating, just like a fish.

Even during battle, he can use his skin to aid breathing and increase his stamina in combat.

After exercising for an hour, his body was covered with a layer of sticky oil, which was subcutaneous fat and impurities.

When I went to take a shower, I saw my figure in the mirror and couldn't help but feel satisfied.

This body is now incredibly powerful. The muscles are not exaggerated, but they are all clearly defined, making it clear at a glance that this body must possess extraordinary strength.

Moreover, it's the kind of muscle that girls like the most—soft lines, yet not very aggressive, unlike those explosive muscles that would look disgusting.

"I'll name this technique I found the Marrow Cleansing Method. It cleanses the body anytime, anywhere, and the body is constantly changing. Yesterday, I cut my skin with a razor blade and found that my skin is very tough. As soon as it is injured by external force, it will immediately tighten up."

Even a knife can't pierce it; this is probably superior to even the most powerful protective shields like the Golden Bell or Iron Shirt.

Thinking of the Golden Bell Cover and Iron Shirt, he suddenly had another good idea.

Chapter 141 The Idea of ​​Golden Bell Cover and Iron Shirt

"The so-called 'Golden Bell Cover Iron Shirt' is actually a training method that uses striking techniques to continuously train the body and greatly increase its resistance to impact."

It's basically a process of constant destruction and then restoration!

Miyazaki Yu's mind raced. Through the Marrow Cleansing Technique, he could feel his skin's defenses greatly increased, and he could also see the changes through internal vision.

Above the dermis layer beneath the skin, there is an additional fascia-like substance!

These things are actually a layer of muscle fibers that extend from the muscles deeper inside the body.

By using the marrow cleansing method to refine my body, I stimulated changes on the surface of my body. Muscle fibers penetrated deep into the subcutaneous fat layer, forming a network with fat cells!

This principle is similar to a watermelon growing under the pressure of a stone. In order to avoid being flattened, the watermelon will continuously grow various fibers inside, constantly increasing its hardness.

When you finally cut it open, you can feel that although it is a watermelon, it is almost a fruit made of fibers with almost no flesh. It doesn't taste good at all, but it is really hard. Even with a sharp knife, it is difficult to cut it easily.

At this time, the muscle and fat network that gradually forms as you train your body can also produce a similar effect!

"In other words, whether it's the Golden Bell Cover or the Iron Shirt, at its core, it's all about the cycle of striking and recovering, which slowly builds a layer of muscle fibers under the skin to enhance defense. My Marrow Cleansing Method unintentionally aligns with the essence of this type of martial art!"

However, it is obvious that the flaws in this type of technique are also quite obvious.

For example, many people feel sluggish and slow after training, lacking agility.

It cannot improve the agility and speed of the body and limbs. Even ordinary people can dodge punches and kicks that they think are fast. There are also some parts that cannot be trained, such as the groin.

Having learned a great deal about medicine, Miyazaki Hayao was now able to analyze the reasons behind these consequences.

It's actually just like that flattened watermelon. The dense fibers inside greatly reduce the sensitivity of the nerves. Although it's very durable, it's practically just a punching bag and can't exert much power.

However, this is the training method for ordinary people. They train through drugs and physical training, and they cannot avoid the damage that drugs and physical attacks cause to the neural networks on the surface of the body!

"They can't do it, but with my current ability to control all my muscles, I can perfectly avoid this as long as I proceed step by step!"

Now that you've thought of it, let's take action immediately.

He began searching through the books he had found and quickly discovered several prescriptions for training in Iron Shirt and Golden Bell techniques. Having become quite familiar with pharmacology, he immediately reduced the dosages after reading them and replaced the original herbs with several new ones, while also adding a few more herbs.

These common prescriptions are clearly not true secret formulas, but rather simplified versions of the most basic ones. While using these prescriptions may have some effect, the side effects will inevitably be significant.

He had previously bought a lot of medicinal herbs to prepare for the medicinal bath, but now he didn't even need to buy any more; he simply gathered the dosage for one dose from his existing stock.

"Xiaoyu, are you going to take a bath with medicinal herbs again?"

Miyazawa Mie, who was tidying up the kitchen, saw Miyazaki Yu come upstairs excitedly after taking a bath and bring out a lot of medicinal herbs, so she couldn't help but ask.

She knew that Miyazaki Yu often used many medicinal herbs for bathing, and she also handled many of the herbal residues. However, Miyazaki Yu did not take medicinal baths frequently; on the contrary, she was very restrained.

Today shouldn't be a day for medicinal baths, right?

Miyazaki Yu smiled and said, "I just thought of a new way to exercise, so I wanted to try it out. Aunt Mie helped me clean these herbs. I chopped them up with a small cleaver, then crushed them with the millstone I used before, then boiled them in a big pot, and then poured them into my heated bathtub."

The young woman nodded and got to work.

She knew that Miyazaki Yu lived alone and didn't actually have much to take care of. Asking her to take care of his daily life was actually to help her and provide her with a stable job.

Moreover, the other party even allowed their daughter, Rena, to move in with them, for which she was extremely grateful.

Therefore, she also regarded Miyazaki Yu as family, so she would not ask too many questions about what he did.

"Okay, I'll do it right away, Xiaoyu, please wait a moment."

Miyazaki Yu did not leave, but instead started processing the medicinal herbs with Miyazawa Mie. He had taught Miyazawa Mie the technique, so he was even more skilled. Before long, he put the herbs in a pressure cooker and heated them.

"Xiaoyu, I know you're very smart, but medicinal herbs are still medicinal herbs. You have to be careful. I've heard that many medicines have some side effects."

Miyazaki Yu smiled slightly: "No problem. I have adjusted the amount of herbs accordingly. It looks like a big pot of herbs, but the amount of the few herbs that are actually effective is very small. Not to mention me, even if it is used on Rena, there will be no problem."

If you say that, Miyazawa Mie can rest assured.

"Speaking of Rena, I have to thank you. If it weren't for your help, Rena wouldn't have been able to transfer to Teitan Elementary School. Rena is very happy at the new school. She has made many new friends, and the gloom in her heart has lessened a lot."

As she spoke, the eyes of this unfortunate woman shone with hope, shining brightly.

“Aunt Meihui, I’ve said it before: although we are not related by blood, in my heart, you and Rena are both my family. There’s no need to be so polite with me.”

Miyazawa Mie smiled, feeling a warmth in her heart.

"I heard from Reina that you'll be participating in some kind of swordsman trial soon, right? It seems quite dangerous, and I'm a little worried."

Miyazaki Yu shook her head and said, "There is indeed a bit of risk, but there's nothing we can do about it. If you want to join the Sword Masters Association and become a member, this is an inevitable trial. I was afraid you would worry, so I deliberately didn't say anything. Who would have thought that this little girl would still say it out loud."

Miyazawa Mie laughed and said, "You little rascal, you're going to keep this from me? I will fully support whatever you decide. Aunt Mie can't do anything else, but I will do my best to support your decision because I believe in you and believe that whatever you decide is the right one."

After entering the medicinal bath, a strong 'burning sensation' came over me. Upon closer inspection, it seemed that this was not a burning sensation, but rather the warm medicinal power taking effect.
