Starting from Tianlong, Wudu Tianxia

Although she had expected it, Grandma still couldn't help but secretly praise it.

"Sit down and focus your energy, gradually reciting the mantra to your senior sister, once forward and once backward."

"Yes, Senior Sister."

Gao Yuan immediately sat down on the futon, silently circulating the Northern Darkness True Qi, while simultaneously opening his mouth to recite the incantation.

At first, he had no trouble with mindfulness, but when he combined the two and recited them backwards, he felt a backflow of qi as if it was hitting his throat, and his qi circulation was slightly sluggish.

Fortunately, Gao Yuan had the jade pendant on him. In less than a breath, the icy aura he received once again allowed him to guard his mind, leaving his mind empty of all distractions.

Grandma saw him pause slightly, his pretty eyebrows furrowing, just about to give him some pointers.

But then he saw that in less than a breath, he continued to speak, and the surprise in his eyes flashed by, then turned into undisguised joy.

good boy.

The Master's insight remains as sharp as ever.

After Gao Yuan finished reciting, his grandmother continued to teach him how to apply it.

Gao Yuan raised his palm as instructed and attacked Grandma with the Heavenly Plum Blossom Fist. Grandma stood still and responded with the Heavenly Plum Blossom Fist in return.

Grandma's palms flew like butterflies, pressing down at will. She used the Six Paths of Heavenly Mountain Plum Blossom, which intertwined countless afterimages in front of her, making it impossible to predict the trajectory of her movements.

Between feints and real attacks, if the opponent is confused by the feint, they will be immediately caught by a major acupoint.

Gao Yuan was taken aback. He took a half-step to the side and stepped down with the "Zhongfu" stance, spinning like a top.

The strangeness of this move lies in its flexibility and adaptability, which allowed it to narrowly avoid Grandma's first move.

But before he could catch his breath, his grandmother lightly patted him with her left palm, the wind from which was chilling.

Gao Yuan felt a sharp pain in his Chize acupoint, followed by a numbness in his Yangguan acupoint. He immediately lost his balance and knelt on one knee.

When I looked up again, I saw that my grandmother's right palm was held upright, gathering strength without releasing it.

Her palm was less than a foot from his nose, almost touching it.

Gao Yuan felt a chill run down his spine. In a life-or-death duel, he only needed to release a little palm force to be killed with a single blow.

Two moves!

In just two moves, if it weren't for the cleverness in the first move, coupled with the Lingbo Weibu footwork, he probably wouldn't have been able to withstand even one of them.

Grandma is indeed terrifying.

"Foolish! The way to break the plum blossom isn't by force, but by 'drawing,' 'changing,' and 'appearing.' Look at this fragrance."

As she turned her palm to retract her stance, the wisps of white fragrance emanating from the bronze cauldron, a foot away, circled around with the force of her palm and slowly gathered behind the boy.

Plucking plum blossoms is not a move, but rather a subtle invitation; it transforms like a plum blossom, embracing the snow with grace...

Grandma said he was stupid, but she couldn't hide her smile.

Logically speaking, those who are not naturally gifted in learning her methods will waste countless hours on reciting mantras and circulating their qi.

Those with average talent may be able to imitate cats and tigers, but they will lack coordination in the movement of their limbs and their movements will be sluggish.

Those with exceptional talent can probably imitate three or four parts of the Tianshan Plum Blossom performance.

With continued guidance and time, one can gradually achieve a refined and polished appearance.

Gao Yuan recited the formula fluently in less than two quarters of an hour on his first attempt, and his movements were completely smooth, which was already a top-notch skill.

They're not much worse than those heartless 'petty thieves'.

of course.

Grandma was unaware that the young man had learned the Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique) in a single day through virtual deduction in the Langhuan Paradise.

Otherwise, they would never have given the assessment that it was "not much weaker".

Such extraordinary talent rivals that of his master, Xiaoyaozi.

Just as she was about to continue giving Gao Yuan guidance, she suddenly noticed a strange phenomenon.

She saw that after hearing what he said, Gao Yuan sat cross-legged on the ground, palms facing up, on his lap, and then closed his eyes.

What are you doing, you brat?

Could it be enlightenment?

When a martial artist learns a particular move, experiences external phenomena, receives spiritual feedback, and begins to activate their mind, this is described as meditation, which is enlightenment.

Once you grasp the essence of a move, the bottleneck will break through on its own, and your martial arts training speed will far surpass that of ordinary people.

Conversely, it has little effect.

She started learning martial arts at the age of six and is now eighty-six. Over the past eighty years, she has had occasional moments of enlightenment, but not many.

In the martial arts world, there are three opportunities that can lead to enlightenment.

First, it was the accumulation of quantitative changes, culminating in a qualitative leap after countless hours of hard work and setbacks.

Secondly, it is about breaking free from attachments, eliminating obsessions, and attaining a state of non-attachment to see the "essence" of martial arts.

Third, external things can influence one's mindset; one may occasionally see something that inspires them.

In short, most people either don't practice enough, think too much, or lack an opportunity, so those who can achieve enlightenment are extremely rare.

Grandma would never believe that Gao Yuan was deliberately showing off; she knew the boy's character well.

But it's hard to believe that a young man could be enlightened just by watching it once and hearing a single sentence.

Grandma frowned slightly, but did not disturb her.

suddenly......

Gao Yuan, sitting on the futon, opened his eyes.

Under his grandmother's expectant gaze, the boy's demeanor suddenly changed!

He interlocked his thumb and ring finger, and spread the remaining three fingers diagonally, just like his grandmother had demonstrated before. His fingertips seemed to be covered with frost, and he seemed to be gently breaking off a plum branch.

However, his movements were slightly different. The starting stance of Tianshan Zhemei was a feint, with a gentle breeze whistling through his palms, carrying a hint of warmth and fluidity.

Grandma noticed it at a glance.

Gao Yuanbei's True Qi possesses both strength and gentleness, but he just failed to transmit the Tianshan Plum Blossom Energy Circulation Method to the "refined" level.

At this moment, he extended his palm and channeled his energy, carrying with him a trace of his understanding of "breaking the plum blossom" with his own hands.

As he shifted his stance, it perfectly captured the carefree spirit of plucking plum blossoms, his movements like those of a lively young man enjoying a spring outing, tenderly admiring and plucking plum blossoms.

The grandmother, who was watching from the side, was secretly alarmed!

The next move, "Snowflakes Falling on the Branches," was used even more smoothly by Gao Yuan.

Because he had already gained experience in the linkage between body movement and moves during the previous virtual simulation of Lingbo Weibu, he was now adept at using the linkage between palm and foot, with the foot assisting the palm.

However, when the next "horizontal and oblique plum blossom" was played, it lacked the unpredictability of Grandma's words, but gained a sense of composure and weight.

The combination of the two creates a unique charm that "uses strength to complement gentleness, achieving a balance of strength and gentleness."

Grandma had an incredibly sharp eye; she could see right through people's moves.

It was as if the cold wind was blowing through the plum grove, dispelling the awkwardness that lingered between Gao Yuan's fingers and palms.

The true meaning of the three words "attract, change, and contain" hidden within is revealed!

"Yes...yes...the air caresses the plum grove, the clouds and mist merge into one!"

"Yes, the plum blossoms, frosty and sharp, are ready to burst forth; they bend down, gather their sleeves, and flick the snow-covered tips!"

"This is the core artistic conception of the plum blossoms of Tianshan!"

The moves are easy to learn, but the artistic conception is rare!

Tianshan Plum Blossom is one of the unique skills of the Xiaoyao School. My grandmother has been immersed in it for decades, and she naturally understands its artistic conception very well.

But it should be noted that...

Different people have different postures when "Zhemei" (a type of plum blossom divination), all because their internal strength, personality, experience, and even aesthetic sense are different.

The gentle and refined are like "a scholar picking plum blossoms," with a subtle and graceful strength.

The agile are like "bluebirds carrying branches," changing moves swiftly.

The composed are like a hermit caressing plum blossoms, finding strength in stillness.

Different people use it, and the results are completely different.

The most taboo thing for disciples in Tianshan Zhemei is that their movements and postures become more and more like their master's as they learn from him.

This is a rigid imitation of a tiger.

But as long as the final destination conforms to "nature," there is no fixed method, yet all methods lead to the same end, and the source and flow are unified.

If Gao Yuan had any shortcomings at this point, it would undoubtedly be his lack of knowledge about martial arts.

The moves they make are relatively unchanging.

Grandma stood with her hands behind her back, astonished by the boy's understanding, her heart surging like a raging storm.

She stared at the handsome and dashing young man before her, a subtle thought stirring within her.

In Grandma's heart, the ethereal figure of her master seemed to perfectly match the figure of this young boy.

This left her slightly stunned.
