With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 199 Three Flowers Gather at the Top, Flight Takes Off (3k)

He wasn't an expert in water-related matters; he could only explain a little bit about it because of his status as the second-largest being.

Meng Chuan's attack fully demonstrated the advantages of the water element, and there was nothing more he could teach him.

What puzzled Lu Zhuxiao even more was...

Meng Chuan is proficient in fire element, but water element has always been something he's not very good at. How come he made such great progress after just one enlightenment?
Could it be that he is a genius in the Water element of the Five Elements, but has gone astray in the Fire element?
No, he quickly denied it.

Meng Chuan's fiery fighting style makes it impossible for him not to be a fire-elemental prodigy.
This kid's comprehension is truly astonishing; he gains great insights with just a single moment of enlightenment.

This is also a kind of talent. Some people have sudden enlightenment, but it is fleeting. After they understand a key point, the feeling disappears.

But someone like Meng Chuan, who grasped the essence in just one moment of enlightenment.

He's a fucking genius!
Therefore, his gaze toward Meng Chuan grew increasingly fervent, as if the top lecturer was already within his grasp.

Then, Lu Zhuxiao said affectionately:

"Your metal element needs to improve as well; that's my specialty."

"it is good"

Teacher Lu's gaze was a bit intimidating, so Meng Chuan snapped back to his senses and started practicing his metal fist technique.

Besides the Five Elements Armor-Piercing Heart-Piercing Fist, Lu Zhuxiao had also taught him a second-rate metal fist technique a few days ago.

Its name is 【Kongtong Long Fist】.

This is one of the unique martial arts techniques of the ancient martial arts sect, the Kongtong Sect, which Lu Zhuxiao obtained by chance.

Before the current martial arts masters, Meng Chuan no longer needs to practice standing meditation, and has more time to practice boxing.

I sleep six hours a day, minus four hours for diaper changes, meals, and rest.

He spends fourteen hours a day practicing boxing.

The Five Elements Fist is too mentally taxing; now he can only practice for four or five hours a day at most.

We can't spend the remaining nine hours practicing Thunderclap Scattered Hands, can we?
That's too much, and with long hours of repetitive practice, the efficiency of improving proficiency after fatigue is not high.

Fortunately, the boxing style recommended by Teacher Lu was quite unique, so Meng Chuan started learning it and practiced it occasionally in his spare time.

"Come on, let's see how well you've practiced the boxing technique I taught you before."

Lu Zhuxiao said in a deep voice.

"it is good."

As soon as he finished speaking, Meng Chuan swung his right arm like an axe, slamming it heavily onto the top of the silicon gold pile.

Immediately afterwards, with an indomitable spirit.

His left arm, shaped like a spear, thrust forward with fierce and swift movements, producing a crisp and clear force.

This is the unique technique of the Kongtong Long Fist. Meng Chuan only practiced it a few times with Lu Zhuxiao before he mastered it.

As its name suggests, this technique specializes in the long fist style.

Imagine arms as long weapons like axes, halberds, spears, and forks, and use the human body as a forging hammer.

At the same time, it utilizes the unique power-generating techniques of the Kongtong School, making it even sharper, more powerful, fierce yet swift.

"Not bad, after a few more days of practice, you'll probably be proficient. Your slashing is good, but you still need to intensify your thrusting practice."

Remember what I said: use the long fist stance to evolve the principle of metal piercing, with the fist tip concealing a golden glint, and when making a move, the arms are like two retractable spears!
Your talent for boxing is even greater than your physical talent; you should focus more on your boxing skills in the future.

Lu Zhuxiao nodded in approval while offering words of comfort.

This kid has become obsessed with practicing hard skills. In order to teach him according to his aptitude, he asked Meng Chuandu what kind of hard skills he practiced so that he could adjust his training plan accordingly.

As a result, Meng Chuan talked for a full half minute, and Lu Zhuxiao couldn't even count how many doors he opened.
Meng Chuan remained silent. Brother Gang said he had high physical talent, and Master Lu said he had good comprehension of boxing techniques.
"I'm rather greedy; I can master both fist techniques and hard skills, and not neglect either."

To be a well-rounded warrior, you can't have any weaknesses.

Lu Zhuxiao glanced at his watch; it was almost time for class.

"Meng Chuan, you can practice on your own first. If you don't understand anything about Xingyi Metal, feel free to call me anytime."

"Okay, thank you, Professor Lu."

Meng Chuan was also quite curious. Teacher Lu had been nice to him before, but not to this extent.

What's going on lately?

He suspected that Lu Zhuxiao's current situation was similar to that of Teacher Chen Tie at Ping An Middle School, who had been entrusted with an important task by Principal Zong.

That's all, it's just Yang the clerk's job.
Meng Chuan focused wholeheartedly on continuing to practice boxing. Since he had already started practicing the Kongtong Long Fist, he would practice it until he had ten points of proficiency!
Time passes slowly.

Meng Chuan's boxing partners changed again and again, but he remained proudly standing by.

Nothing more than this: the most crucial thing for a man is stamina!
After the proficiency level was checked one last time, today's task was completed.

[Kongtong Long Fist: Beginner (50%) → (60%) Awaiting Breakthrough]

[Limit Breaking Trait: Arrowhead Crusher (Beginner)]

With the improvement of the Five Elements Universe Fist and his own martial arts principles, this second-rate fist technique was not difficult for Meng Chuan to learn, and his proficiency increased rapidly.

I practiced for more than three hours this afternoon and increased my proficiency by 10%.

If he's willing to give it his all, he can break through to mastery tomorrow.

However, it's not very useful. At present, the focus of practicing boxing should still be on two top-notch boxing styles in order to increase more qi and blood.

He plans to work hard to develop a wave of qualities once he reaches the level of a martial artist.

With his abilities, he could practice to his heart's content in one go, and find a dozen or so second- or third-rate martial arts manuals to work through together!

With his current level of understanding, Meng Chuan had vaguely figured out something.

The pattern regarding what traits can be gained after breaking through the limits of boxing techniques.

The boxing styles he encountered were mostly divided into three types.

Traditional martial arts techniques, improved versions of traditional martial arts techniques, and modern innovative martial arts techniques.

Each of these three categories has its own advantages.

The first type of breakthrough is more difficult than other fist techniques of the same level, but the traits gained after breaking through the limit are likely to be better.

Because I am the only one who has improved it from scratch. Improving ancient martial arts techniques is the next best thing, and finally, modern innovative martial arts techniques are the last.

Modern boxing techniques are relatively simpler, but their ability to break limits is generally weaker than that of other boxing techniques at the same level.

But that's not necessarily true, because we also need to consider the artistic conception and artistic realm of the martial art.

For example, his current main practice is the Five Elements Universe Fist.

Although it is an improved version of ancient martial arts, it holds a special status.

The so-called core characteristic of "Five Qi Returning to the Origin" transcends the normal classification.

Only after obtaining it can one know its true purpose.

Even with his martial arts level of understanding, he still couldn't grasp these things; he could only say that he had a vague sense of them.

During a break from practicing boxing recently, Meng Chuan wanted to find another "core trait".

As the saying goes, "When the three flowers gather at the top of the head, one returns to the root; when the five elements converge, one achieves complete understanding."

However, he first ruled out the possibility of "Three Flowers Gathering at the Top".
Because the Five Qi Gathering at the Origin refers to the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys, the five qi converge at the "Origin," which is the fundamental location of the human body.

One can sense these five types of qi through the method of absorbing qi.

By accumulating Qi, one can move closer to the state of Five Qi Returning to the Origin.

However, the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top is different; he is far from reaching that level.

In the very beginning, he had even dreamed of it.

Could the limit-breaking characteristic of the Qi-Nourishing Armor Technique, "Flower of Flesh," be related to the so-called Three Flowers?

However, after being brutally beaten by reality, the "Three Flowers" that the Great Chu generally acknowledges still refer to the Taoist concepts of "essence, energy, and spirit."

The cultivation of essence, energy, and spirit is a skill that martial artists must learn later in life. If he can master the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top, he will instantly become a grandmaster.
Therefore, Meng Chuan gave up on finding the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top in boxing techniques.

When a martial artist advances to a higher level, they can seek true skills or even ultimate techniques.

However, special traits are not a limit-breaking reward unique to boxing techniques; there are also treasures hidden in movement techniques and hard skills.

However, it's unlikely that the movement technique contains core characteristics. For skill-based techniques, it's already difficult to have characteristics, so it's best not to force it.

Meng Chuan felt that hard skills should include this.

Although his theory of external physical training was unorthodox, with Gang Ge's occasional guidance and his consistent attendance at the online courses of [Thick Earth Dragon King Chen Yu], he was able to improve.

Meng Chuan felt that the principles behind it were no simpler than those of boxing.

At the same time, hard skills involve mysterious acupoints, and their upper limit is far higher than that of physical techniques.

This is not unfounded. Both the Great Chu and the Western Regions Tantric sects possess hard skills of the highest level, comparable to divine martial arts.

However, looking at the whole world, no country, whether in the East or the West, has this level of movement technique, not even a true skill level movement technique.

Therefore, Meng Chuan embarked on a path to find the "core qualities" within hard skills.

He asked Gang Ge last week to get some top-notch martial arts skills, which should arrive this week.

Then we'll search through them and see if we can find the true divine skill we need!

have a break.

As he watched the sun set, he quickly began practicing the Five Elements Universe Fist.

The weather was sunny today, and the sun shone for a full forty minutes. He tried calling seven or eight times, but still couldn't get the "Dawn and Dusk Enlightenment" buff.

"No problem, let's continue tomorrow!"

The next day.

Meng Chuan got up early and started working.

My uncle and aunt were still sleeping. After a quick wash, I took out half a pound of solidified medicinal paste from the refrigerator.

Regardless of its coldness and grotesqueness, Meng Chuan, with his robust constitution, had no need to worry and swallowed it in no time.

Before the sun rises, I first sit cross-legged on the meditation cushion to practice the "Dragon Meditation".

"call"

After concentrating on practicing the technique, Meng Chuan felt that the shield in his mind, which was originally shaped like a swimming dragon, had become even thicker.

He continued his breathing practice according to the mantra, and his brain emitted a long "buzz!"

Immediately afterwards, an indescribable feeling of exhilaration erupted in my mind, like a volcanic eruption, with wave after wave crashing over me.

Like something inside his skull, Meng Chuan felt so good that his eyes narrowed into slits.

Since the moment [Heavy Strike] broke its limit, Meng Chuan has rarely experienced this feeling.

"Exciting, awesome!"

Then I looked at the panel.

[Secret Technique]

【Dragon Meditation: Level 1 (100%)】

Long Zuochan was also an indispensable contributor to his journey.

The fierce roar of the dragon demon, the whispering of the mountain statues, and other mental attacks all rely on this secret technique for defense.

At this moment, Meng Chuan was practicing Dragon Meditation, circulating his breath through his mouth and nose.

He could feel the mental shield in his mind, just like a tightly sealed city wall, firmly protecting his brain.

Now that the first layer is complete, the effect will surely be even better.

It's much better than the little cart in Dave's backyard!

The moment of reflection ended, and the entire process took less than ten seconds.

Experienced guys know that if you can maintain that exhilarating feeling of a flight taking off for even five seconds, you're practically a monster.

If you can enjoy pleasure for almost ten seconds, then you are a top-tier prodigy in this field!
With his mind completely silent, Meng Chuan entered a state of saintly bliss.

"Damn it, I finally mastered the first level!"
