Chapter 14 Master Teacher Gu Feixue
Chapter 14 Master Teacher Gu Feixue
Gu Feixue on the other side thought he was about to run away, but she didn't expect him to actually continue to comprehend.
She couldn't help but laugh.
. . .
Xu Tianyi closed his eyes and focused intently on comprehending the meaning.
Now that he had rested, his thoughts began to wander.
I've read many cultivation novels, and they all say that if you have spiritual roots, you can see the spiritual energy of various colors around you and then pour it into your body.
The original owner of this body must have been talented to have reached the third rank of martial artist.
So he began to daydream for half an hour.
The result was obvious: nothing could be seen, let alone any points of light.
Helpless, he looked at the jade pendant in his mind.
Suddenly, a brilliant idea struck me.
"Didn't I already have a cheat code? Why do I need to figure it out myself?"
He was delighted and immediately tried to extract some internal energy from the jade pendant.
But clearly, no matter what he did, he couldn't do it.
He immediately figured out the key point.
This jade pendant gives you inner strength; it means that if you do righteous things, it will transform you.
So, I have actually skipped the first step; what I have come to understand is righteousness.
Now that I have fully understood it, the second step is to address the issue of meridian pathways!
Thinking of this, he immediately began to examine the meridian pathways of the Ice Heart Technique.
He discovered that the path of the Ice Heart Manual was extremely complex and cumbersome.
He forcefully guided the internal energy within his body to begin advancing in accordance with the direction of the Ice Heart Technique.
But he stopped very quickly.
This is because the meridians are blocked, or rather, many of the meridians in one's body are simply nonexistent.
The navigation told him to turn right here, but there was nothing on the right and no road at all.
Therefore, this is the real problem that prevents him from cultivating the Ice Heart Technique.
Left with no other choice, he stopped and looked at it again.
I discovered that there were notes on the next page.
"Everyone has only nine main meridians that are the same, while the other branches are different."
Just like in a forest, every tree branch is different.
Therefore, they need to be roughly the same to be able to cultivate; if the differences are too great, cultivation will be impossible.
Truly powerful martial arts techniques are all developed by genius martial artists through continuous modification based on their own experiences.
In other words, each grandmaster has their own unique and relatively suitable cultivation method.
Upon seeing this sentence, Xu Tianyi finally understood.
All grandmasters build upon the foundations laid by their predecessors, modifying their techniques to better suit their own needs.
This Ice Heart Manual has been revised by Gu Feixue for over thirty years and is now perfectly suited to her. Gu Qinghan is her daughter, and their meridians are naturally similar.
Gu Qinghan is also revising the Ice Heart Technique to make it more suitable for her.
So what I need to do now is find the meridian pathways that suit me.
Simply put, just like rune points in a game, you can use other people's runes, but you still need to allocate them according to your own preferences to make them work smoothly.
Xu Tianyi immediately abandoned the numerous minor branches of the Ice Heart Technique and cut off all the detours.
We started walking directly on the main road.
He immediately noticed the difference: even after cutting off many impassable paths, the refined internal energy was stronger than the previous techniques.
This gave him more confidence.
But many questions still arose that he didn't understand, so he began to write them down in preparation for asking them the next day.
The pathways of these meridians are just like those of a water conservancy project.
Why build a dam here? Why divert the flow? Why open up new routes to divert the flow? What are the underlying principles? These questions require guidance from a master.
Gu Feixue is a Grandmaster. Although her cultivation level is not high because she is healing Gu Qinghan, her theoretical knowledge is very solid.
After all, she had been in the Moon Wheel for over a decade, and during that time she spent her free time researching these things.
Thinking of this, Xu Tianyi stopped cultivating.
He immediately took out his martial arts techniques and began to study them.
What interested him most was the Flying Shadow of Ice.
This move is extremely fast, sending the person flying out at high speed and freezing any enemies passing by.
It's also very useful for escaping.
He looked at it and the basic principle was to draw upon the internal energy to accelerate the jet and freeze the surrounding enemies.
Of course, there are also specific meridians and specific driving sensations.
The meridians circulate, releasing energy in accordance with your own senses.
It's very subtle and delicate.
Xu Tianyi tried it and felt like his body was about to explode, because he couldn't navigate many of the meridian pathways, so he obviously couldn't learn this move.
But he also understood the underlying principle.
It's similar to martial arts; simply put, it involves using movements in conjunction with body shape and power generation.
The difference is that martial arts use the body to generate power, while this martial art uses internal energy in conjunction with the body to generate power, relying more on internal energy.
However, the combination of the two is also very important.
Unable to use his ultimate move for the time being, Xu Tianyi began to study sword energy.
Frost Sword
This is the sword qi martial art of "Ice Heart Manual".
It still follows a specific meridian pathway, drawing true qi from the dantian to the arm, injecting it into the sword, and then flicking it out.
This also requires specific weapons; only a suitable weapon can unleash a more powerful sword aura.
For example, Gu Qinghan's Cold Fragrance, Gu Feixue's Ice Soul, Ning Wushuang's Flowery Brocade, and Ning Hongye's Candle Shadow.
The sword in his hand, similar to the Heaven-Slaying Sword, also had the effect of coordinating with internal energy; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to unleash sword energy.
But the effect will definitely be mediocre.
Even thinking outside the box, certain armor, robes, and other items might also enhance the protective power of one's true energy.
Only when a martial artist reaches the Grand Martial Master realm will they possess true qi to protect their body.
Unlike internal energy protection, which has a similar defensive power to leather armor, true qi protection is different. It reduces damage, isolates dust, and blocks arrows.
In short, having armor makes all the difference.
Xu Tianyi calmed down and began to study diligently.
Gu Feixue's martial arts skills are roughly these: body protection, sword energy, area freezing, ultimate moves, and ranged techniques such as ice spikes, ice balls, and ice cones.
After reading it, he was deeply moved.
I have a clear understanding of the path I want to take.
It will take some time to research and develop a suitable training method and martial arts technique for myself.
To achieve this goal, one must study more intermediate and advanced martial arts techniques and skills, learn from their strengths and make up for one's weaknesses, so as to form one's own unique fighting style.
Before we knew it, it was already dawn.
Xu Tianyi regained consciousness, washed up, and waited for Gu Feixue to come out.
Shortly afterward, Gu Feixue and Gu Qinghan also woke up.
After the three sat down together again, Xu Tianyi began to inquire about the operating principles of various meridians and cultivation techniques.
His memory became exceptionally clear because of the time travel and the existence of the jade pendant.
Every question I noted down hit the nail on the head.
Gu Feixue was stunned by his numerous questions.
There were some problems she hadn't even considered.
However, she had a thorough understanding of the Ice Heart Technique, so she was able to answer most of Xu Tianyi's questions.
Gu Qinghan, who was standing next to him, looked at him with even greater respect.
The morning passed by quietly.
Gu Feixue had originally planned to leave today, but he delayed her, and she didn't leave this afternoon.
However, she was very pleased with Xu Tianyi's talent and took the initiative to start guiding him in the afternoon.
Gu Qinghan also began to act as a sparring partner.
The three of them got along exceptionally well.
At first, Gu Feixue was worried that Xu Tianyi would seduce her daughter.
But after spending time together, she no longer had that idea, because although Xu Tianyi and Gu Qinghan often communicated, it was all about martial arts.
In particular, Xu Tianyi was very studious and had no distracting thoughts.
Their relationship was more like that of colleagues or fellow students, calm and harmonious.
Two days have passed, and Gu Feixue has essentially accepted him as her disciple.
Everyone likes a studious high achiever.
But by the morning of the third day, Gu Feixue had already had her luggage packed and was ready to continue her journey.
The destination was Linxi County.
This is Gu Feixue's idea.
On one hand, she wanted to verify whether the Qian family was truly evil and whether Xu Tianyi was really lying.
On the other hand, Gu Qinghan and Xu Tianyi should also go to the Qian family to eliminate evil and gain experience.
The main reason is that my daughter has little combat experience, and I want Xu Tianyi to mentor her.
Soon, the convoy set off.
Along the way, Xu Tianyi continued to make the most of his time, studying martial arts techniques and skills, while frequently asking questions and exchanging ideas with Gu Qinghan.
Two days later, we will arrive in Linxi County.
At this moment, the ambush prepared by Xu An, the eldest son of the Xu family, also revealed its true colors.
