With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 275 The Great Confucian Scholar Debates the Classics, the Earthly Fiend Body!
Meng Chuan awkwardly explained:

"Master, please use your senses to take another look."

After concentrating, Luo Guanyun's face contorted in pain.

He sensed the destructive will of thunder within it.

"This is... Thunder Magic?"

"Um"

Upon hearing Meng Chuan's admission, Luo Guanyun was stunned once again.

"Why is your lightning magic energy black?"

Something's not right. He even wanted to break through the True Qi Seal and summon his Thunder Seed to take a look.

Meng Chuan explained the process of sensing Qi, emphasizing the pair of golden eyes in the sky.

And after I came out, I was tainted by this dark true energy.

"."

Luo Guanyun found himself speechless, despite being a martial arts master.

My apprentice is truly extraordinary.
After Luo Guanyun entered the fourth major limit, he increasingly sensed that there were invisible threads pulling him between heaven and earth.

That is the thread of cause and effect.

At this moment, he was looking directly at his personal disciple.

Various secrets that should not have appeared in the body of a martial arts master.

At this moment, however, it was like a spider web, wrapped around Meng Chuan's body.

In the depths of his being, he seemed to hear the turning of the gears of fate.
"Heaven is about to bestow a great responsibility upon this person."

Luo Guanyun had only one thought in his mind.

Seeing his apprentice looking at him waiting for a response, he remained silent for a moment before saying:

"Black True Qi. Use it sparingly if you can. Although I cannot reveal this technique right now because of the Thunder Seed."

But those who are observant know what color my previous Thunderous True Qi was. You can use the Five Elements True Qi as cover, and use the Thunder Technique as a trump card to activate it.

His family's thunder technique was not a secret among the top experts in the Great Chu, and most people said that this technique was both righteous and evil.

Luo Guanyun was worried that some people might have ulterior motives because he was Jin Lei and Meng Chuan was Hei Lei.

He can protect someone for a while, but not forever.

Moreover, there are quite a few martial arts masters stronger than him. If he were to use force, what would he do?

"Later, learn some real martial arts techniques to provide cover, but be careful about attribute clashes. Try to learn those that don't conflict with the lightning element, such as the Water Element Fist."

"It's not time for you to actively suppress the lightning seed yet."

"clear."

But Meng Chuan remembered that his "Five Elements Returning to the Origin" trait had the effect of mutual generation of the five elements.

It can currently avoid attribute conflicts at low-level True Skill and below.

Since I'm not practicing some profound water-based martial art, thunder magic won't affect my liver trait.

But he didn't tell his master about this in detail. Meng Chuan planned to keep the matter of the control panel a secret forever.

As for what his master said about concealing his Black Thunder True Qi, Meng Chuan had already made corresponding plans.

They will definitely keep it as a trump card and not easily reveal it to others.

Putting everything else aside, if the Demonic Seed in the Dao Heart is to be fully restored in the future, the Demonic Power will need to be integrated into it.

He doesn't know what changes will occur then, but it's clear it won't turn from black to white; instead, it will continue down a dark path.
If he were to reveal that he was practicing demonic arts, then things would be disastrous.
Only by becoming a "righteous and powerful being" with a certain voice in this world can one truly succeed.

Only then can one openly and generously reveal oneself to the world.

At that time, Meng Chuan will no longer need to worry. What about the black true energy? What about the fusion with demonic arts?

"At that time, great scholars will naturally come to debate the classics for me."

But before that, cultivating the Dao and planting demonic seeds in one's heart is definitely not a problem.

Without the stimulation of willpower, the dark true energy cannot emerge from the spring of consciousness.

The seed of lightning is hidden deep within the primordial spirit; one must concentrate one's senses to the utmost.

Only when someone acts like Master Luo did they realize their own "abnormality".

If someone does this, he will naturally be able to sense it.

This is a completely new era of Qi and Blood Martial Arts, not the old one. There are no more old martial arts monsters laughing strangely and kidnapping people for human research.

Only those who follow the demonic path have a slight chance of doing such a thing.

However, the other party will then realize that it was actually "one of their own".
However, if this method is revealed in a fight, one must kill the person to silence them!
Luo Guanyun's words interrupted Meng Chuan's thoughts.

"Alright, that's all for the Thunder Technique. As for how to cultivate it, Ancestor Luo Fang has already taught you, so I won't go into details again. Tomorrow, I'll guide you through a full cycle of its circulation to familiarize yourself with it. After that, you can practice on your own."

Today, I'll mainly teach you advanced stance training. Before we begin, I'll talk to you again about some divine and secret techniques.

Meng Chuan's eyes lit up. Could it be that he could cultivate now?
Luo Guanyun pondered for a moment and said:

"It's the same principle as when you were practicing top-notch boxing techniques. You need to have a certain foundation in your body before you can even begin to learn."

Divine skills and ultimate techniques not only require a certain level of Qi and blood, but also impose great limitations on one's physical constitution and comprehension.

Usually, only those who excel in both can advance to the second or third limit of cultivation.

"With your martial arts aptitude, to be honest, your master should wait until you become a martial arts grandmaster before you start training."

Meng Chuan nodded slightly awkwardly. Anyone who could reach the level of cultivating divine skills was a true genius.

He himself is still a bit lacking in experience, but he has great potential.

As one's innate talent improves and comprehension is enhanced through special abilities, it's not impossible that one might one day be able to cultivate divine skills and ultimate techniques ahead of time.

"However, Chuan'er, I don't quite understand your aptitude for external martial arts. Perhaps you can actually start practicing hard martial arts ahead of time."

Do you remember the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill? You were on pretty good terms with that young Shaolin monk Jueming, always hanging out together.

This technique is a supreme martial art of Shaolin. As a rising star among the younger generation, Jueming will surely want to practice it in the future. You can get it from him.”

Luo Guanyun didn't finish his sentence, but Meng Chuan understood his meaning. It was like how Grandmaster Zhao Shousui had obtained many excellent martial arts techniques from his master.
That's what connections are all about!
Meng Chuan felt that his master was right and that he should cultivate a relationship with Jue Ming from time to time.

"However, there's no need to rush this matter; we should proceed gradually."

Besides approaching Jueming, he could also seek help from Senior Zhao Yingchun to mediate.

Senior Zhao had always held great expectations for his ability to improve this method, which began with the improvement of Guoyiquan.

If I ask, the other party will most likely agree.

However, his current focus is still on finding the core characteristics of external physical training from the Taoist hard skills.

Moreover, the Dragon Elephant Prajna is the culmination of Buddhist teachings, and one cannot cultivate it without a solid foundation, so there is no need to rush.

"Alright, now follow me and practice the standing meditation method. I'll demonstrate and you can learn from me."

"clear."

An hour later, Meng Chuan looked at the panel and smiled knowingly.

[Standing Posture Exercise]

[Taiyi Three Talents Stake: Earth Stake (1%) Awaiting Limit Break]

[Limit-Breaking Trait: Earthly Fiend Body (Intermediate)]

The reason he was able to get started so smoothly was entirely due to his strong meridians and the solid foundation laid by the Limit Breaking Stance.

Upon seeing the Limit Breaker trait, Meng Chuan had a look of sudden realization.

The [Earthly Fiend Body] is a precious trait known in the Great Chu that some people possess it.

Meng Chuan had seen its effects online, saying that it could draw upon the earth's evil energy to temper one's muscles and bones.

It not only aids in physical training and cultivation, but also enhances one's physical constitution.

"Hearing the Dao morning and evening strengthens my enlightenment, while the Earthly Fiend Body strengthens my physical constitution."

As expected of Xingyi Zhuang Gong, which is passed down from the same lineage, Meng Chuan became increasingly curious about what kind of qualities the [Heavenly Zhuang] could bring.

He speculated that it was likely different from sudden enlightenment, a stable "improvement in comprehension".

Among the top experts of the Great Chu, there is a saying that goes like this.

[Innate talent ensures a minimum standard, while comprehension increases the maximum standard.]

Meng Chuan understood the meaning of this sentence: as long as one's innate talent is extraordinary enough, one can also cultivate to the level of a martial arts master by following the steps and learning from the wisdom of predecessors.

But things might change later on. If a martial arts master wants to continue to improve, relying solely on the skills of their predecessors is far from enough.

Only through breakthroughs and innovations, or by mastering divine skills and unique techniques, can one advance further.

Those who lack comprehension at this stage will find it difficult to create their own techniques or comprehend divine skills, leading to stagnation.

Thinking of this, Meng Chuan dared not underestimate anyone in the world.

Those peerless experts who could cultivate to the level of Martial Arts King or even Great Sage without "hanging" must have been incredibly powerful and extraordinary.

Coming to his senses, Meng Chuan listened as his master continued:

"The Earth Stance Chapter has three levels. When the third level is perfected, one reaches the limit of the third major limit."

After breaking through to the Martial Arts Grandmaster level, one will then begin practicing the Heavenly Stance.

"Understood, thank you, Master."

Meng Chuan understood; on his panel, the three layers of ground stakes were integrated together.

Achieving a proficiency level of over 30% is sufficient to complete the full extension of the meridians to the six orifices.

"It's just as tough as standing on a stake; the path of martial arts is nothing but a damn path of standing on a stake."

I won't be guiding you through the thunder magic practice today. It's already six o'clock. After dinner, make sure you complete today's standing meditation practice. Come to my house tomorrow morning.

"it is good."

Meng Chuan nodded in agreement.

After having dinner in the martial arts school's cafeteria, the two returned to the martial arts room.

Luo Guanyun stood next to Meng Chuan with his hands behind his back and pointed:

"Settle into the ground, activate the meridians in your heart, and practice according to the path of the earth stake diagram."

"clear."

Meng Chuan lowered his waist and sat on the horse, his feet rooted to the ground as if they were planted there.

Following the method taught by the master, I circulated my Qi and blood to promote the flow of Qi through the meridians, extending it towards the six orifices.

Luo Guanyun supported his waist with his hands and tightened his grip, chanting:
"His body felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, as steady as a rock, and as solid as a mountain."

As time went by, Meng Chuan's movements became more and more standard, and through the stimulation of qi and blood, he could feel the meridians moving.

Although the amplitude is very small, there are obvious changes under endoscopic visualization.

Like a lotus bud just beginning to emerge, the meridian points towards the Baihui acupoint with a pointed tip.

Although it hadn't yet reached the acupoints, Meng Chuan could already feel that his meridians were no longer so swollen.

"Now we can store even more qi and blood."

Luo Guanyun happened to offer a suggestion:

"After practicing the Earth Stance, the amount of energy stored in the meridians varies from person to person."

Some people have strong meridians that can hold more qi and blood, while others develop slowly due to congenital limitations.

You don't need to worry about that. As far as I know, you should be the [thickest] man in the Great Chu.”

Being able to store over 700 points of Qi and Blood at the Martial Artist stage is quite extraordinary.
"Once the acupoints are connected, each acupoint can store 600 points of Qi and Blood, for a total of 3,600 points across the six acupoints. This amount should be fixed for each person."

Luo Guanyun dared not make any definitive statements; this kid's meridians were already so robust, his acupoints might be "a size larger" than others'.
Meng Chuan nodded in agreement, saying that his master was right.

He estimated that his acupoints were the same as those of ordinary people, since he could not break through the limits.

But his meridians are a different story. Thanks to the breakthrough in the human stance, his meridians have become much thicker.

At that time, the ground piles will exceed the limit again.
