Chapter 837: Thirteen Styles of Martial Saint

|There is loss in every link of information storage, transcription and restoration.

Just like when you watch an old movie, various white noise points and black lines appear frequently and sometimes disappear, seriously interfering with the viewing experience.

The same is true of the image that Zhou You restored from the Mu clan tripod. Although it is blurry, the amount of information it contains is very important.

The most valuable of these are the scenes where the first generation Martial Saint appears. Although they account for less than 10% of the total, every frame cannot be missed.

The writings and boxing skills he taught were collected by Zhou You, who compared them with the words on the clan tripod and unearthed a great treasure.

"Introduction to boxing skills: Thirteen styles of martial saint."

The first generation of Martial Saint taught the ancient tribal boxing skills, which were not copied mechanically, but were tailored to the local people's physical fitness, eating habits, and even hunting movement patterns.

There are thirteen moves in total, including long-distance running, wading, leaping, attacking, forming formations, defending and so on.

The thirteen styles reflect the difficult survival situation of the human race during that period of history. These boxing skills are genes engraved deep in the bones.

Although it is called the Thirteen Forms of the Martial Saint, it is actually not profound at all and is very easy to learn.

Cultivation is not difficult. As long as you persevere and practice day by day in hunting and survival, there will be unlimited possibilities for improvement and there will be no bottleneck.

This boxing skill is the enlightenment boxing method of human martial arts civilization. It is more of a concept than a skill.

To educate the human race, implement the concept of martial arts, and combine the practice of boxing and martial arts with survival.

The first generation of Martial Saint practiced martial arts himself and traveled all over the world on foot, finally spreading the seeds of boxing and martial arts to every corner.

There are no profound concepts or artistic conceptions in every move. There is only a clear goal: to survive!
Zhou You further realized the greatness of the first generation of Martial Saint from this boxing skill.

But since when did boxing, a skill for survival, become a means of killing for humans to harm each other?

Zhou You stood on the ruins of the Mu family's old house and thought about this question seriously.

The clan tripod was lifted off the ground by 108 strong men. In order to transport it to the street, countless doors were demolished and countless walls were broken through along the way.

Finally, the clan tripod was handed over to the Heavenly Sacrifice Palace and became the property of the feudal lord.

What was left was a feast for the Lian family and the Western Branch of the Zhou family.

Well, the Lian family will get the biggest share. After all, they have dispatched two masters this time and attach unprecedented importance to this matter.

Zhou You had no objection to this. He believed that he had gained more, as Neng De had been taught boxing and martial arts in person by the first generation Martial Saint.

The following days would be a long battle to divide up the Mu family's assets.

It would take several years to completely sort out the Mu family's assets, especially since the number of in-laws and branches that were destroyed was countless, including shops, fields, mines, medicinal gardens, and so on.

I heard that in many sects, disciples of the Mu family suffered accidents one after another, either dying suddenly or going missing.

To exterminate an entire family is not just a literal meaning. In reality, it means to kill everyone without leaving a single one alive.

Even some of the illegitimate children of the Mu family members suffered misfortunes one after another, being killed by robbers or dying of illness.

All the men from Zhou Clan's Western Sect had been sent out, leaving only the personal guards by his side to protect him!
Originally, Zhou You should have traveled in a high-profile manner at this time to enjoy the credit of destroying the Mu family, but he behaved extremely low-key.

He refused the opportunity to show his face, and entrusted matters such as handing over the clan tripod and reporting to the Eight Gentlemen to Lian Feihong, saying that he was seriously injured and needed to rest at home.

In fact, he was just enjoying his leisure time at home and playing with his son.

……

"Son, these skills that Dad wants you to have are incredible. Study hard, this is a rare opportunity!"

Zhou Pan nodded seriously, his face tense. He was wearing a tight waist suit and he walked and punched in a methodical manner.

The introductory boxing skills, Thirteen Forms of the Martial Saint, are not restricted to routines and are essentially thirteen sets of boxing formulas that are applied and evolved according to actual conditions, adapting to local conditions and responding flexibly.

It is most suitable for laying the foundation for my son!
Zhou Pan punched and kicked, and the Qi and blood in his body flowed along with it, causing his boxing and martial arts movements to correct themselves, accumulating bit by bit.

His little face turned red, and he suddenly punched out, smashing the wooden man opposite into pieces.

Just relying on this skill, Zhou Pan, at the age of three, had already achieved great power of qi and blood.

"Dad, how do you think I fight?"

"That's right, go down and have some candy!"

Watching his son leave happily, Zhou You fell into deep thought and started gesturing with his hands.

The Thirteen Forms of the Martial Saint are indeed an introductory set of boxing skills. For someone at his level, it is too late to learn them.

In fact, countless boxing skills in later generations basically have the shadow of the Thirteen Styles of the Martial Saint, such as light body skills, hard golden body skills, weapon skills, hiding skills, etc.

Times have changed, nothing remains constant, and martial arts have also changed with the times.

The only remaining value of the Thirteen Forms of the Martial Saint today, apart from archaeological purposes, is to lay the foundation for children.

However, for Zhou You, there is a deeper meaning.

This is the work of the first generation of Martial Saint, from which we can infer the first Martial Saint's boxing and martial arts philosophy, as well as his spirit of creation.

Zhou You practiced the Thirteen Moves of the Martial Saint himself, and his progress improved by leaps and bounds like a rocket.

“武圣十三式 1v1→1v2，经验值+10。”

“武圣十三式 1v2→1v3，经验值+20。”

"Thirteen Styles of the Martial Saint 1v3 → 1v4, experience points..."

"Thirteen Forms of the Martial Saint 1v4→1v5..."

"...".

“武圣十三式 1v99→1v100，经验值+99000。”

Unconsciously, this enlightenment boxing skill broke through to level Iv100, and there has been no bottleneck, as if there is no end in sight.

Apart from bringing an increase in experience points, the increase in Qi, blood, and essence is negligible. The so-called enhanced experience is nothing more than lighting up the body movements, boxing skills, weapons, and other moves that Zhou You once mastered.

Those are skills that I have already mastered. Going through the Thirteen Moves of the Martial Saint again is just to consolidate my existing state...right?

It was not until his Iv100 level was reached that Zhou You discovered the subtle changes he had overlooked.

He glanced at the experience value balance on the panel, "Experience value: 1185402."

This time, we destroyed the Mu family, killed powerful enemies such as Mu Lingshe, successfully completed one trial project after another, and gained a huge amount of experience points.

In this case, don't waste it, upgrade it a little bit at a time and see where the limit of the Thirteen Styles of Martial Saint lies.
“经验值-100000，武圣十三式 1∨100→1∨101。”

“经验值-101000，武圣十三式 1∨101→1∨102”

"..."

Just when he upgraded to Iv123, Zhou You suddenly had an idea in his mind, and the Thirteen Styles of Weapon Strike inspired him.

He took out the Baiyun Spear and shook it with all his strength. The black light disappeared and white lightning burst out. The tip of the spear was as big as a needle tip and everything in the space was destroyed.

The Baiyun Spear, which had originally remained in the conceptual stage, finally thrust out a mature shot, and its power increased tenfold.

If Zhou You fights with Mu Lingshe again, he won’t even need his personal guards to surround him, as one bullet will pierce his chest!

So that's how it is. The greatest value of the Thirteen Postures of the Martial Saint is to sort out the boxing and martial arts system, to eliminate the dross and retain the essence, and to achieve a catalytic effect of going further.
