With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 197 Xiang Wang Zhenwu, Expanding Meridians (3k)

“Ahhh~”

Zheng Zhenzhen was panting heavily as she reached out and smoothed out her wrinkled collar, her once neat bun now a mess of loose hair.

On the artificial hill.

The two large cats thought it was an extra meal, so they crouched down and quietly approached her from behind.

Zheng Zhenzhen turned her head and sensed that the two were about to ambush her. She leaped in front of Erhu and knocked them both unconscious with a single punch.

How could an ordinary tiger bully a warrior of the Eight Gates? Even if he is weak, he has the strength to sustain him with his vital energy. With a casual wave of his hand, he can exert a force of over a thousand pounds.

Then, she stepped on the heads of the two idiots and leaped out of the tiger enclosure, shouting at Meng Chuan.

"I'm angry! Buy me dinner!"

Zheng Zhenzhen pretended to be reproachful.

"I have to go now, I'll see next time."

After saying this, Meng turned and left.

Master Luo just got off work. It would be wonderful to have dinner with my master before practicing martial arts.

Most importantly, he doesn't have time to treat anyone tonight; he needs to consult Master Luo about stance training.

This concerns one's own comprehension-related qualities, which are more important than anything else.

Zheng Zhenzhen watched Meng Chuan leave, speechless.

"Meng Chuan, are you angry?"

She felt frustrated, as if she had messed up.

A gentle evening breeze blew by, ruffling her disheveled hair.

Remembering that Meng Chuan had just supported her waist, she suddenly felt her ears burning.

Her heart was pounding, and she turned and rushed into the tiger enclosure.

He stretched out his claws and roughly rubbed the heads of the two big cats to calm himself down.

Feeling the plush texture in my hands is just like the softness that stirs within me.

That night, at Luo Guanyun's home.

As Meng Chuan finished his stance training, Luo Guanyun nodded and said:

"The energy in my body surges and circulates like the ebb and flow of the tide. When I stand still, my breathing is long and deep, as if I am in sync with the heavens and earth."

"Chuan'er, your human form has indeed reached perfection."

Meng Chuan asked:

"Master, what if I want to improve further?"

He didn't directly mention the limit-breaking, so as not to make a common-sense mistake.

Because stance training differs from techniques like fist fighting and body movements, there are no explicitly defined levels of proficiency.

Luo Guanyun knew that Meng Chuan's "old problem" had resurfaced.

However, this is not a bad thing. Knowing not only what to do, but also why to do it is a valuable spirit of inquiry.

He thought for a moment and slowly said:

"The known limit of a martial artist's Qi and blood is 598 points. So why can most people only condense their Qi and blood to a little over 500 points through boxing?"

It's not that it's inherently different; it's related to the body's meridians' capacity to carry qi and blood.

While both represent the state of perfection and the diagrams for stance training are similar, individual human bodies differ.

Some minor habits during Zhan Zhuang (standing meditation) may affect the effectiveness of your meridian expansion.

However, there is a small chance that it can make your meridian strength slightly higher than that of ordinary people, but that's all.

The diagrams of stance training are correct, but the best posture is the one that suits you. I don't encourage you to try to find another one; it's better to spend your time practicing boxing.

A little more or less Qi and blood doesn't matter much; becoming a martial artist as soon as possible is the most important thing.

After reaching a higher level, the improvements brought by the [Transformed Acupoints] are far greater than those from practicing stance training.

"I understand, Master."

After receiving guidance from Master Luo, Meng Chuan now knew how to break through the limitations of stance training.

I'll practice boxing with my master first, and then try to verify it when I get back.

The time spent practicing boxing passed quickly, and the teacher's wife brought over some fruit so that the two of them could rest for a while.

"Your health is recovering well. When will Chuan'er be able to join the martial arts family?"

Ren Ping asked curiously.

Meng Chuan picked up a piece of cantaloupe with a fork and smiled:

"This is all thanks to my master's wife's healing power. I'll try to make progress within the next year."

"That will be soon, only a year later than Luo Meng was back then."

Luo Meng is her daughter and her pride.

Luo Guanyun paused for a moment, then said:
"Luo Meng has been practicing martial arts since she was a child. Even though she later abandoned her stance training and switched to imitation training, she still had the foundation that her father laid for her. I don't know how many good things he fed her when she was a child."
Although Chuan'er started a bit late, her potential is no less than Luo Meng's. She should make her master proud and surpass her in the future!

"Okay, I'll try my best."

Meng Chuan nodded and focused on the fruit in his bowl.

"My apprentice is indeed of one mind with me," Luo Guanyun said with a smile.
"Your trait is stronger than Luo Meng's [ethereal] quality. The only thing you lack, to be honest, is that your innate talent is a bit lacking."

Didn't your master buy you some precious medicine to improve your physical constitution before?
The national treasury has better, non-saleable goods that never enter the market.

Practice your boxing skills diligently, and when the time comes, cross the Taihang Mountains, reach the top of Shanghai, and extract the prize money from the national treasury.

"As for Zhenwu, your master will take care of it for you, ensuring you can enjoy it before you even reach the level of a martial arts master."

He had previously sold his ancestral Golden Linglong to buy a Life-Extending Pill, and now Luo Guanyun has no Zhenwu in his possession.

But he doesn't plan to buy it for himself first; he intends to save up more money so he can buy it for his apprentice in one go.

How can a top-tier martial artist be worthy of his disciple's talent? He'll probably be eliminated soon.

"Thank you, Master Luo!"

"Thanks my ass. By the way, do you have enough money to practice martial arts right now?"

Luo Guanyun clapped his hands and laughed, then asked about his apprentice's funding.

He knew Meng Chuan had won a two million yuan prize, but the kid's martial arts training was both complicated and expensive. Just practicing the Five Elements Universe Fist alone required ten thousand yuan a day, and his hard skills were an even bigger expense. Two million yuan might not be enough to cover it all.

"That's enough, Teacher Luo. Principal Yang also transferred one million to me yesterday, saying it was a reward for promotion."

Luo Guanyun nodded and said:

"That's good. Just let Master know if you need anything else."

Ren Ping listened from the side without offering any opinion.

Although she wasn't particularly close to Meng Chuan, she was keenly aware of her husband's potential as his apprentice.

No matter how much she puts in, she will reap even greater rewards in the future; Ren Ping has quite a broad vision.

Meng Chuan nodded with a smile. Master Luo would ask him every now and then if he had enough money, but even if he didn't, he was too embarrassed to ask for more.

There are a few true masters who can prepare genuine martial arts for their disciples.

Even the house he lives in was bought by Master Luo. His master has given him so much that it is difficult to repay him.

Only by breaking the limits of lightning techniques can its drawbacks be eliminated, just as it was said when I first became an apprentice.

[To further develop and popularize the Thunder Technique of the Primordial Spirit Seed.]

After Meng Chuan left, Luo Guanyun and his wife went back to their room to get things done.

An hour later, Luo Guanyun sat on the edge of the bed smoking.

Ren Ping hugged her husband from behind and said with a smile:

"This Domo exercise is indeed effective; it has made me much stronger."

Luo Guanyun nodded awkwardly, but then heard Ren Ping whisper again:

“I heard from Luo Meng recently that she also wants to change to a new True Martial Sword, because her current one is not keeping up with her strength.”

Luo Guanyun's face instantly fell, and he took a deep breath and said calmly:
"Earn it yourself, I don't care."

Pillow talk was useless to him; his daughter was just too cunning.

"It's just a small loan, a few tens of millions, and your martial arts school is so big now."

"No money."

Ren Ping was helpless; there was nothing she could do if her husband refused to pay.

She then inquired out of curiosity:
"So what kind of martial arts are you planning to buy for Xiao Meng? I heard from others that a batch of ancient martial arts that were previously circulated overseas will return to China at the end of the year. See if there are any that my son can use?"

Luo Guanyun stubbed out his cigarette and nodded, saying:

"I've also heard that some of them are genuine weapons from the former dynasty's palace that were lost due to war before the founding of the Great Chu, including the fist blade used by King Xiang during his lifetime."

It just so happens that Chuan'er is cultivating Qin Tianwang's [Five Elements Universe], and I want to see if I can master it.

King Xiang is none other than Qin Xiang, the "Fist Shakes the Eight Desolations." During his lifetime, he served the old imperial court and was the last martial arts king of the ancient martial arts era.

Qin Xiang held a high position during his lifetime, reviewed countless military campaigns, and had a great passion for collecting weapons.

However, his collection is mostly made up of Zhenwu gauntlets, and the title says it all: "Fist Shakes the Eight Desolations."

A small portion of the weapons he used are treasured in the homes of his descendants.

However, most of them were lost overseas with the fall of the previous dynasty.

The whereabouts of the "Kanglong Divine Fist," which King Xiang used at his peak, remain unknown to this day.

Finally, Ren Ping rolled her eyes at her husband and said helplessly:

"You're so generous."

"I'm willing. Chuan'er is almost like my own son to me, which is much better than raising an ungrateful child."

Ren Ping couldn't refute it; when Luo Meng was young, Luo Guanyun had spent at least tens of millions to cultivate her.

"Go to sleep. Tomorrow it's my turn to guard the entrance to the Demon Nest."

As long as Li Xiao does not show his face, Yong'an City will continue to implement the "Grandmaster Rotation Guarding Demon Nest System" to the end.

"Okay, go to sleep."

at the same time.

After returning home, Meng Chuan began to attempt to break through the limits of stance training.

Modern martial arts based on Qi and blood are highly developed. Researchers have experimentally proven that the Qi and blood capacity limit of a martial artist's meridians is 600 points.

After receiving guidance from Master Luo, he understood how he could break through his limitations.

"Breaking this 600-point limit, isn't that what's called breaking the limit?"

Meng Chuan began to try as Master Luo had just instructed.

He stood on the meditation cushion, constantly adjusting his stance.

Maintaining proper breathing through the mouth and nose, Meng Chuan tentatively assumed a horse stance with a bow-like posture.

As soon as he got into position and took a breath, before he could even find his strength, Meng Chuan felt uncomfortable all over.

He immediately straightened up and found that the posture was not suitable for him.

There was still some time before 12 o'clock.

Meng Chuan continued to try various other postures, such as the hanging support posture, the pressing down posture, the lifting and embracing posture, and so on.

even.

He finally turned his body upside down on the prayer mat, which is the inverted position.

Seeing that it was getting late, Meng Chuan stopped fussing and prepared to go to sleep.

He had previously read online that experts had summarized various postures that help to further expand the meridians after achieving perfection.

But since everyone's body is different, he still needs to continue searching and trying.

Once others find a suitable posture, they can only cultivate their Qi and Blood to a maximum of 600 points.

But he is different; he can expand his meridians beyond this limit.

This is thanks to the special trait gained from breaking the limits of the Cannon Fist – [Heavy Strike].

"Slightly exceeding the limitations of the human body."

The heavy blow had already rendered him inhuman; others' meridians could only be expanded to accommodate a maximum of 600 points.

But Meng Chuan is different; he can expand even further.
"As long as you train your meridians to a level exceeding 600 points through stance training, that's fine."
It's actually not difficult. Just find the right posture and practice standing meditation for a while.
