Chapter 3 Xu Yan who practices hard

"After the horse step is done, adjust your breathing, calm down, focus on your Dantian, and sense your own energy and blood..."

Xu Yan took a horse stance, and under Li Xuan's guidance, he adjusted his breathing and sensed where the energy and blood were.

Li Xuan pointed and said: "The way to practice as a teacher lies in the word 'enlightenment', in the word 'meaning', not in form. You have to calm down, forget about things and me, and comprehend it carefully." , to find the 'meaning' in it..."

Anyway, it's just making it up, and there are no moves to teach, so you can't teach Xu Yan radio gymnastics, right? It’s so out of character.

So I could only let Xu Yan take a horse stance and sense the energy and blood by himself.

As for not being able to sense it, that's a matter of qualifications.

It's not a question of the techniques taught by my master.

"Whether you can sense qi and blood depends entirely on your understanding and whether you can get a glimpse of the 'intention' in it. Once you sense qi and blood, try to mobilize the qi and blood, temper the skin membranes all over your body, and enter the skin refining stage..."

Li Xuan taught Xu Yan how to practice seriously.

"This is the foundation of martial arts. The so-called master leads you to practice on an individual basis. You should practice well, comprehend well, rest when you are tired, combine work with rest, and don't rush it."

"The more impatient you are, the harder it is to sense your energy and blood, do you understand?"

Xu Yan said respectfully: "Yes, Master, I understand!"

"Well, practice hard!"

Li Xuan left with his hands behind his back and happily received Xu Yan's apprenticeship ceremony.

"Nine-leaf Yuanzhi is a precious medicine, stew it and try it to see the effect!"

Li Xuan thought like this, took out a knife, carefully cut off a piece of Nine-leaf Yuanzhi, went to the chicken coop to catch a chicken and killed it, then lit a fire and put the Nine-leaf Yuanzhi into the stew together.

"This apprentice is cultivating here. It is necessary to take care of the food. He has given such a generous gift. It would be a bit too evil to not take care of the food."

Li Xuan muttered in his heart.

On the way to lighting the fire for cooking, I took a look at Xu Yan. He was still walking, but he was swaying and he could no longer hold on.

After a while, Xu Yan couldn't hold on anymore and started to rest.

This is his third break.

"I can fool you for a while, I'm not trying to lie to you, you brought it to your door yourself."

Li Xuan shook his head and ignored him. He wouldn't be found out for a while.

Moreover, the appearance of Xu Yan gave Li Xuan an opportunity to leave the small village and perhaps pass through the Evil Forest safely.

He had already thought of an escape route. Once he left the small village, he would go to the Kingdom of Wu to settle down.

Being far away from Qi State and Donghe County, even if Xu Yan found out that he had been cheated, he would not be able to use his identity and background to target him!

…

Xu Yan strode forward again, feeling the energy and blood calmly.

"Qi and blood exist in the body and circulate throughout the body. How to sense and mobilize it? Master said that the emphasis on understanding and meaning is not in the form..."

Xu Yan continued to feel the qi and blood, but except for the soreness in his legs due to the zamabu, he did not feel the so-called qi and blood at all.

"Don't be discouraged. It only takes so long. Persistence will definitely pay off!"

Xu Yan encouraged himself in his heart, his eyes were firm, and he continued to walk to sense the energy and blood.

The chicken soup is ready.

Li Xuan took a look and saw that Xu Yan continued to pace, so he didn't bother and started eating by himself.

"Nine-leaf Yuanzhi is a rare treasure in the world. After taking it, you won't get sick from all kinds of diseases, your hair will turn black but not white, and your life will be extended for twenty years... I don't know if I'm exaggerating!"

After Li Xuan had eaten, he didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but he just felt much more energetic and his whole person seemed to have become much more relaxed.

"There's still a little left, give it to Xu Yan."

After muttering something, he stood up and came to Xu Yan.

"How's it going?"

Xu Yan put away his horse and said slightly frustrated: "Master, I haven't sensed the blood yet."

"It doesn't matter. The key to martial arts is persistence and determination!"

Li Xuan comforted.

I felt funny in my heart: "You must not be able to sense qi and blood. I just made it up. If you can sense qi and blood, wouldn't you be a monster?"

"You still have a year. Now you are hungry and go eat."

When Xu Yan heard this, he suddenly felt hungry and said gratefully: "Thank you so much, Master!"

"This is chicken soup stewed with Jiuye Yuanzhi. Eat it. It is a good nourishing medicinal diet."

"Yes, Master!"

Xu Yan was moved in his heart. Jiuye Yuanzhi was his apprenticeship ceremony, but the master made soup for him to drink. The master didn't care about the apprenticeship ceremony at all. If it was as the master said, he was destined to come here!

While eating rice and drinking chicken soup, Xu Yan asked: "Master, how long does it usually take to sense qi and blood and get started with cultivation."

"Well, it varies from person to person."

"Master, how long did it take for the fastest beginner?

How long did it take to get started?

Li Xuan rolled his eyes in his heart. According to the cultivation method he made up, he would never get started in his life.

"If I set the entry standard too low and he hasn't achieved anything through cultivation, will there be doubts? The standard for genius must be set higher."

Li Xuan thought so in his heart, so he said: "The ancient geniuses completed the skin refining in five days, the bone refining in ten days, and the internal organs refining in fifteen days. Then, the muscles and bones thundered, the qi and blood were like gang, and they successfully started."

"A month before or after."

Xu Yan's eyes widened and he was shocked.

Can skin refining be completed in five days?

Getting started in one month?

Is this the genius in Master’s eyes?

"Can I complete the skin refining in five days? I may not even be able to sense the energy and blood today. I should not be able to complete the skin refining in five days. Am I not qualified enough?"

Xu Yan suddenly became nervous.

Li Xuan had been paying attention to Xu Yan's expression. It was good to feel nervous, so he said: "Of course, this is the genius of ancient times, one among ten thousand. You don't need to be impatient. As long as you can get started in one year, in the eyes of a teacher, , it’s considered qualified.”

"It turns out that in Master's eyes, one year of entry can only be regarded as qualified!"

Xu Yan's eyes were firm and he said solemnly: "Master, don't worry, this disciple will definitely get started within a year, and I will definitely live up to your hard work!"

Li Xuan patted him on the shoulder, with a look of relief on his face, and said: "You have this awareness, it is worthy of being a master and making an exception to accept you as a disciple!"

Xu Yan was immediately moved.

At the same time, the sense of urgency in my heart became stronger. I quickly finished my meal, stood up and said, "Master, I'm going to practice!"

"I have to work hard to practice, and I must not let down Master's painstaking efforts!"

Xu Yan was determined in his heart, walked away quickly, and continued to sense the energy and blood.

"This stupid boy!"

Li Xuan shook his head and sighed. He didn't want to lie.

But now, there is no turning back.

From the moment he accepted the apprenticeship ceremony and taught Xu Yan some stupid exercises, Li Xuan knew that he could no longer turn back and could only go to the dark side.

it's getting dark.

Before Li Xuan went to bed, he went out and took a look. Xu Yan continued to practice in Zha Mabu, which was really hard.

I couldn't bear it, for fear of exhausting myself, so I said: "Cultivation requires a balance between work and rest. If it affects yourself, it will damage your foundation. When you need to rest, you should rest!"

"Master, I know!"

Xu Yan said respectfully.

Li Xuan shook his head, closed the door, and went back to his room to sleep.
