Died of old age, and you tell me this is a life simulation?

As a member of the Qi Sect, we attach particular importance to this point.

Not to mention that martial arts flourished under Daqian's rule, and the distinction between internal and external became even more obvious.

Originally, for most of the internal skills in the world, it would take at least several decades to cultivate to a profound level and accumulate deep internal strength. The advantages of internal skills would become more obvious as time goes by, but they would be slightly inferior in the early stages. External skills would be more significant, which was the origin of the sword energy dispute.

However, ever since the spread of the [Small Zhoutian Gong] created by His Majesty, martial artists throughout Daqian have been able to delve into the secrets of this unique and miraculous skill. Even more astonishing is that this unique and miraculous skill is extremely concise, yet all-encompassing. Its ability to accumulate internal energy far surpasses 99% of all internal energy methods in the world. Thus, profound internal energy that once might have taken decades to accumulate can now be achieved in less than 10% or 20%, and it is even more miraculous and purer! Furthermore, Daqian possesses the cultivation elixir developed by Empress Dong, making the cultivation of internal energy as if divinely assisted. Naturally, cultivating such profound internal energy has become much easier.

The drawback of slow internal energy cultivation no longer exists. In Yue Lingshan's opinion, if this had happened in the past, there would probably be no so-called sword energy battle.

Because the Qi Zong lineage is absolutely victorious in all aspects.

That is, internal strength is greater than external strength.

Having talent in internal skills is naturally more advantageous than having talent in external skills.

Sister Yi An's talent and understanding are really enviable...

"Lingshan, how is it? Is it very bad?" Li Yian stopped practicing, with a rare look of embarrassment on his face.

After all, she is not proficient in something, and she rarely shows off things she is not proficient in, but this is a request for advice, which is unavoidable.

Yue Lingshan regained her composure and shook her head, saying, "Not really, Sister Yi An. Although your swordsmanship hasn't quite reached its essence, it does have some charm. With a few minor improvements, you should be able to improve quickly."

As he said that, he walked up to Li Yian and told him about all the inappropriate things.

While teaching, let them continue to practice and correct any deficiencies.

But soon... the teacher fell silent again.

Yue Lingshan stared at Li Yian with a somewhat numb expression: "Sister Yian, tell me honestly, have you really only been practicing this sword technique for a few months?"

Li Yian was confused: "Of course, what's the problem?"

"This is a big problem!" Yue Lingshan said angrily, "How come you can do it as soon as I teach you? As soon as I teach you, you can do it! You have such a good talent for martial arts. After a few months, you must have mastered it to perfection! How could you be like that just now?"

"This..." Li Yian hesitated for a moment and said, "Earlier in the academy, my martial arts teacher only taught me internal skills, saying that I should focus on practicing them first and not worry about external skills."

Yue Lingshan was stunned. "So you haven't learned any external skills at all? Then how did you learn this sword technique?"

"There are quite a few people in the academy who can practice swordsmanship. I've learned a little bit from watching them."

Yue Lingshan: “…”

good good!

This is such a superficial method, right?

(ps: Asking for custom orders, full orders, flowers, evaluations, monthly tickets, comments, and support~)

Chapter 576: Imparting Instructions! Breaking the Inheritance Monopoly! Meeting the Queen!

In addition to being amazed and envious, Yue Lingshan also wanted to explore the depth of his talent and see how far he could go. So she taught Li Yian all the sword techniques, boxing techniques, palm techniques, and light skills that she had learned.

The result was that in just half a month, not only was she drained of her energy, but the family martial arts of Shui Sheng and Qi Fang were also drained away. Li Yian learned them all and quickly mastered them.

Yue Lingshan was so shocked that she was numb, but she was also completely convinced. She sighed and said, "Sister Yi An, no wonder your martial arts teacher only taught you the methods of internal strength. With your talent and understanding, there is really no need to get involved in these external martial arts in the early stages of martial arts training. As long as you practice internal strength well and have a deep internal force, you will get twice the result with half the effort in everything you practice!"

This is actually the reason why Li Yian can easily master and quickly master external skills.

Natural talent and understanding are one aspect, but her deep, continuous and endless inner strength is also a great help.

For normal people practicing martial arts, it is not so easy to master the external martial arts. Although the external martial arts have the framework of external skills, the core of the martial arts actually involves a lot of exquisite internal strength and power.

It doesn't mean that you can learn the essence of something by just practicing some moves and doing the external techniques.

All great external skills have both internal and external subtleties, from the outside in! And then from the inside out! Only by practicing internally and refining externally can one gradually reach a profound state!

Simply put, if a person who is not familiar with martial arts wants to practice external skills, he must first learn the external skills. After mastering the external form, he can then focus on the inner core. Internal strength can be gradually derived from external training. After learning the methods of internal strength and power, this external skill can be truly regarded as mastered.

But at this point, it is still too early to say that it has reached a profound level. It still requires practice day and night, perseverance, and many years before it can be achieved.

However, there is one thing that needs attention here. The internal strength that ordinary people have just developed is shallow, and if they want to master martial arts, they need to practice more. So even if they practice diligently, how many times can they really practice in a day?

If you use it a little bit, practice a few moves, or use the core skills, your internal energy will be exhausted immediately. In this way, the speed of improvement will inevitably be limited and hindered.

On the other hand, once the internal strength is deep and endless, practicing it will be as easy as if you were assisted by a god!

Why is it said that profound internal energy can achieve twice the result with half the effort in cultivating external energy? This is one of the reasons!

Normal internal skills cultivated to a deep level will have such an effect, not to mention that the [Small Zhoutian Gong] is a martial arts classic that contains both internal and external knowledge, encompasses everything, and forms a system!

Li Yian has mastered the subtleties of it and has already gained a profound understanding of the martial arts. With the foundation laid, when it comes to external skills, it is natural that he can use them easily!

Yue Lingshan pondered secretly in her heart and was also greatly inspired.

There is no need to get involved too much in the external training methods. Only by specializing in the internal skills can you go further!

certainly.......

This method is not actually available to everyone.

How could a normal person have the talent and understanding like Li Yian, who could thoroughly comprehend the subtleties of the martial arts of [Small Zhoutian Gong] in such a short period of time?

For someone with ordinary talent, it would take at least ten years to reach her level. For such a long time, it is impossible to completely give up practicing external skills, right?

Like soldiers in the army, fighting in bloody battles on the battlefield, they must be proficient in external training methods. It is impossible to wait until the internal skills are cultivated before getting involved.

This is putting the cart before the horse.

But it's okay for a little girl like her.

Normally, there is no need for fighting or killing. Now that we have entered the backyard of the imperial palace, external training methods are of little use, so we can focus on internal training.

Yue Lingshan was amazed, and so were Shui Sheng and the others.

They were already impressed by his knowledge and talent, but now that he had such profound attainments in martial arts, it was truly incredible! Their admiration and respect for him grew even greater!

He is both civil and military, and has amazing talent!

Such a stunning beauty, in this world...

There is such a perfect person!

Qi Fang looked at Li Yian with stars in her eyes and whispered, "Sister Yian, you are so amazing~"

Shui Sheng also sighed: "What are you talking about asking for advice now? We should ask you, sister."

Ling Shuanghua tucked her hair, her eyes also shining: "Yi An is so talented, I can only say that I am inferior to him."

Li Yi'an put away his sword and imitated the martial arts etiquette he had learned from Yue Lingshan and Shui Sheng. He bowed slightly and said with a gentle smile, "Thank you for your praise. It's all thanks to everyone's teaching and guidance."

Everyone shook their heads secretly.

With such talent, even without their martial arts teaching, he would not be any worse if he just followed the steps.

Firstly, this [Small Zhoutian Gong] contains both internal and external knowledge, and can evolve into various martial arts. It's okay if you don't need to learn external martial arts. Secondly, the martial arts they teach are not secret. Most of them are learned in the academy, so it's not difficult to acquire them. As for some of their own family martial arts...

To be honest, in the past, it might not have been easy to teach casually. Matters involving inheritance were not something they could decide, so naturally, it was impossible to pass it on to others...

However, since the establishment of the school system in Daqian, not only the monopoly of upper-class knowledge has been broken, but the monopoly of martial arts inheritance has also been torn to pieces. There is not much point in each school and sect still holding on to its own inheritance and continuing to cherish it.

Because within the academy, what is casually taught is a supreme and exquisite learning, more exquisite than most martial arts in the world! Ninety percent of it is incomparable. Coupled with the overwhelming dominance of the [Small Zhoutian Gong], even those powerful sects with strong cultural heritage, such as Wudang and Shaolin, the Taishan Beidou of the Jianghu martial arts world, can hardly be compared with it.

While they possess no shortage of unique skills and are certainly not inferior in refinement, how many are qualified to practice supreme martial arts like the Yi Jin Jing and Xi Sui Jing? How many have the means to dabble in them? And how many can truly master them to a profound degree?

They are all rare!

And it is not just a rare sight in modern times, but one that can only be counted on one hand throughout the history of Shaolin.

Although the requirements for Wudang's [Pure Yang Wuji Gong] are not so harsh, it still requires long-term practice to reach perfection.

Compared to the conciseness and exquisiteness of the Small Zhou Tian Gong, which is accessible to everyone, it is a far cry from the others! It's hard to compare!

In this way, there is actually nothing that cannot be passed on to others in their sect's 0.6 inheritance and family inheritance.

But this part of martial arts is not as good as what is taught in school.

So it cannot be said to be precious.

And the guidance...

In fact, it’s hard to say. Yue Lingshan and the others didn’t feel that they were giving instructions at all. They just explained things carefully and in detail, and Li Yian basically understood it after one lesson. He learned it once.

Now...it's them who have to ask Li Yian for advice.

Can't help but feel a sense of emotion.

However, everyone soon stopped thinking about these things. After staying in Chuxiu Pavilion for a month and learning the etiquette and rules, the women were able to meet the Queen.

(ps: Asking for custom orders, full orders, flowers, evaluations, monthly tickets, comments, and support~)

Chapter 577: Your Majesty is the [Sun] that illuminates the world! Your Majesty is the [Moon] that nourishes all things!

After bathing, changing clothes and putting on makeup, the women met the two empresses of Daqian for the first time with a nervous mood. They paid their respects with great ceremony in Kunning Palace and responded respectfully.

The whole process did not involve any complicated etiquette. It was just a simple greeting, questioning, and rewarding, and it ended quickly.

After returning to Chuxiu Pavilion, all the women seemed a little dazed.

To be chosen here, they are all considered the best women in the world, and many of them are stunningly beautiful! They think they are not inferior to others!

However... after seeing the Queen Mother East and the Queen Mother West from afar, they were all shocked and stunned speechless.

Because of this, you will gradually become disgusting.

Li Yian also deeply agrees with this.

I secretly sighed that there is always someone better than you.

However, although she was amazed and shocked by the grace, beauty and celestial charm of the two ladies, she did not find it surprising.

Rather, this is what is reasonable!

The people of Daqian revere His Majesty the Emperor as a god, and regard the two queens, the East and the West, as celestial beings and goddesses!

If the emperor is the [Tai14] that illuminates the world, then the two empresses are the corresponding [Taiyin] that nourishes all things.

The sun and the moon move across the sky, eternal and immortal!

Yue Lingshan, Shui Sheng and others were also shocked and moved.

But everyone looked at each other, but no one said anything.

The Queen Mother is supreme and noble, and it is already the limit for them to sigh in their hearts, so how can they discuss it in private?

Therefore, they all kept silent tacitly.

Qi Fang didn't quite understand this, but since no one was talking about it, she was a bit timid and cowardly, so naturally she wouldn't take the initiative to say anything.

After this audience, all the ladies in Chuxiu Pavilion were moved.

I wonder what will greet them next?

It was a rare opportunity for Fang Han to have some free time today, so he did not go to the Yangxin Palace. Instead, he stayed with Cheng Lingsu. After a period of intimacy, he was still silently tender to her.

"Brother Fang, Rong'er and I summoned the concubines in Chuxiu Pavilion some time ago. It seems that... all of them are top-notch girls. You should make some arrangements when you have time." Cheng Lingsu spoke softly, breathing in the fragrance slightly, her eyes slightly hazy.

Fang Han hummed, stroking the delicate and soft texture carefully without saying much.

Cheng Lingsu recovered a little, and seeing that he was silent, she said angrily, "It's already like this, are you still afraid that I'll be jealous?"

As she spoke, she whispered to him which of the beautiful girls she had seen that day had left a deep impression on her.

With Cheng Lingsu's current level of cultivation, she can directly remember the names, appearances, characteristics, life experiences and all the information of the people she meets. She can be said to have a photographic memory. It's just a matter of whether it is impressive or not.

Those who left a deep impression on her at that scene were all outstanding.

"That Li Shishi was also a pitiful person. She lost her parents at a young age and was later adopted by Zhen'anfang in Bianjing City and raised in seclusion. She was trained to be a courtesan, and was taught everything from music, chess, calligraphy, painting, singing and dancing. Later, when our Daqian Dynasty was established and these places were abolished, she was able to escape from her difficulties and regain her freedom. Because she was still young, she was arranged to study in a school. The officials at that time applied for many subsidies for her. She was also smart and clever. Her grades in the school were very good, except for her lack of martial arts. She was given special training. This time, the little girl took the initiative to apply for the list, hehe~"

Cheng Lingsu chuckled softly, "From what I see, she seems to be ready to pledge her love to you. Brother Fang, she's very pretty, with both a beautiful face and a beautiful figure."

Fang Han had a subtle expression. In fact, he knew a little about the name of Li Shishi without Cheng Lingsu telling him.

After all, he is one of the "historical celebrities".

It also needs the blessing of some famous works.

It is impossible to say that a girl like this is not beautiful.

As for how someone with such a background could be selected to enter the palace, in fact, I have to explain a few things. When selecting concubines, Daqian really did not care about their background.
