Chapter 3 3, Marrow Cleansing and Meridian Cutting! The First "Internet User" from Another World! As soon as the precious nectar entered his mouth, it turned into a stream of icy air, rushing from his mouth to his forehead, giving Ouyang Feng a chill all over his body. Immediately afterwards, the icy air flow rushed down from the top of his head, and in the blink of an eye it swept over his entire body, making Ouyang Feng feel cold all over and covered with goose bumps. Afterwards, the coldness turned into dry heat, which rolled up from the Yongquan point on the sole of the foot, making Ouyang Feng's whole body hot. His skin turned red, and he sweated like a pulp. Steam even came out of his head. When the hot air rushed to the top of the head, it instantly turned cold and reversed again, rushing down from the top of the head... This cycle repeated itself nine times, and Ouyang Feng finally understood what the "Nine Heavens of Ice and Fire" meant. After nine cycles, the coldness and heat disappeared, and Ouyang Feng suddenly felt relaxed all over. Every pore in his body exuded an indescribable comfort. But this feeling of comfort and ease was secondary. What really made Ouyang Feng happy was the changes in his own body. "My meridians have widened by more than 10% and become stronger than before. The amount of internal energy flowing through them and the speed of their operation have also increased by more than 10%... My muscles and bones seem to have become stronger as well? My strength seems to have increased a bit..." While practicing his skills and feeling the changes in his meridians, he also performed various stretching movements and felt the changes in the strength of his muscles and bones. Although this drop of precious nectar only improved his meridians, tendons and bones by more than 10%, you have to know that he is one of the top martial arts geniuses in the world and his starting point is too high.
With his starting point, it would be extremely difficult to improve his talent by even a little. If it were someone with average looks, this drop of precious nectar might double his talent. Even if the effect on Ouyang Feng is only an improvement of more than 10%, this improvement is precious and huge - the amount of internal force and the speed of operation have increased by more than 10%, which not only means that the efficiency of his internal practice and accumulation of power has increased by at least 10%, but also means that the "output power" of his internal force has increased. In the future, the power of each move and each style will increase by more than 10% compared to before. This only takes into account the output of internal force, and does not include the physical output that increases after "strengthening muscles and bones and increasing strength." "This time, Yijinxisui will bring me an all-round improvement in both training and actual combat!" After feeling it carefully for a while, Ouyang Feng was delighted: "One drop of precious nectar has increased my cultivation efficiency by 10%. This is only the first time. It will happen again every year. If the same effect can be achieved every time..." In the art of fighting, it should be “young and strong are better at fighting”, but in the world of internal strength and true energy, it is “the older you get, the more powerful you become”. If young people do not have such adventures as Guo Jing eating the precious snake, Yang Guo eating the snake gall, and Duan Yu and Xu Zhu gaining power for free by cheating, then even a genius of the Five Supremes level can only accumulate power slowly. The speed of accumulating power and the purity of internal strength can certainly crush other warriors in a vertical comparison. One year of practice is equivalent to three to five years of others. However, when compared horizontally with talented warriors of the same level, the difference in power still depends on time. It was for this reason that Wang Chongyang was able to defeat all the other heroes during the first Huashan Sword Contest - he was more than ten to twenty years older than the other four great masters. This age was enough for Guo Jing to grow into one of the Five Great Masters and for Yang Guo to grow into the one-armed warrior Jinlun! So under normal circumstances, no matter how much Ouyang Feng practiced, even if he drew all the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, or even the Nine Yin Manual, it would be difficult for him to defeat Wang Chongyang. Their talents are similar, and Wang Chongyang also has "Xiantian Kung" and has accumulated more than ten or twenty years of experience. How can Ouyang Feng catch up with Wang Chongyang? But now it's different. With the precious nectar, he could practice Yi Jin Qing Shi once a year to strengthen his muscles and bones, increase his training efficiency, and comprehensively improve his combat capabilities. In this way, within ten years, the gap in skill between him and Wang Chongyang of more than ten or twenty years would be completely eliminated. Ouyang Feng decided to set a small goal first: "In the future, when the world discusses the five supreme masters, I will be the best!" After drawing martial arts and experiencing the precious nectar, the next step is to try the "Tiantian Spirit Seed" that comes with it. “Tongtian Spirit Seed!” Ouyang Feng recited silently in his heart, and in his sea of consciousness, the Tongtian Baojian shone brightly. On the mirror surface, a strange "seed" floated up, which was crystal clear, shaped like a gem, and faintly emitting a colorful halo. Ouyang Feng's thought moved him and he activated the Tongtian Spirit Seed.
The strange seed that looked like a gem did not appear in reality. It just flashed briefly in the mirror and then disappeared without a trace. But Ouyang Feng felt that an illusory "sacred tree" seemed to appear before his eyes. The sacred tree was rooted in the chaos, with endless roots and huge branches and leaves. Each of its leaves was a complete world. At this time, a tiny glimmer of light flew out from a "leaf", breaking through the chaotic airflow between the leaves, avoiding the predation of some strange beings in the chaos, passing through the gap between the leaves that seemed very short but was actually very long, and finally sank into another "leaf". The illusion before my eyes ended. Ouyang Feng thought about it silently for a while, and was deeply shocked: "One leaf, one world... the cosmic sacred tree? With so many worlds, which one will Tongtian Spirit Seed find?" With curiosity and expectation, Ouyang Feng waited quietly for half an hour, but received no news. “As soon as the Tongtian Spirit Seed is discovered, it will immediately start communicating with the Tongtian Treasure Mirror…Is there no news now because the Tongtian Spirit Seed that just entered that world has not been discovered yet?” After pondering for a while, Ouyang Feng no longer waited in vain and began to ponder "The arrogant dragon will regret". He carefully comprehended the mental method, and observed from various angles the postures and movements of the blurry figure in the mirror when he performed the palm method. When he felt it was about right, he took a stance and began to practice Kang Long You Hui. The Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms is not known for its exquisite moves and variety. On the contrary, each move of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms is simple and concise without any frills, and the essence is all in the use of strength. Ouyang Feng was a martial arts genius, and he had just completed a "Yi Jin Xi Sui" and mastered the most important mental skills of "Kang Long You Hui". With his natural talent, it was natural for him to practice the simple moves of "Kang Long You Hui" without any effort. After practicing for less than half an hour, he had already mastered the move "The Dragon's Regrets". …… The moonlight is like frost and the white clothes are like snow. The thirteen-year-old boy looked focused, drawing arcs with his left hand and pushing with his right hand over and over again. His palm movements are sometimes fast, sometimes slow. When fast, they are like thunder and lightning, and when slow, they are like heavy grinding and crushing. He has gradually grasped the essence of the changes in palm power and practiced the true meaning of "The arrogant dragon will regret". call…… He practiced until the moon was at its highest point in the sky. Then Ouyang Feng exhaled a breath of foul air, stood up, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said to himself: "I have mastered the initial stage of the move, "Kang Long You Hui". However, the key to this move is the word 'regret'. Although the Dragon Subduing Palm is the most masculine and powerful palm technique, as the saying goes, strength cannot last long. For this move, "Kang Long You Hui", you cannot just do a strong and powerful 'Kang Long'. You must use 70% of your strength and leave 30% of your strength, so that the stamina is endless. The subtlety of this move still requires long-term practice and careful understanding..." Although he had initially mastered the "Arrogant Dragon's Regrets" and felt confident that he could use it in actual combat, how could a mediocre move like the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms become the ultimate skill of the Five Supreme Masters, and how could it become the sect's unique skill of the Beggars' Sect, the largest sect in the world? It is because the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms has extremely profound potential and can be continuously improved and its power continuously increased. "At least you have to practice to the level of Qiao Feng, who can strike from a distance, adding up the power of one palm after another, and finally releasing several layers of power at the same time. Only then can you be considered to have mastered 'The Dragon's Regret'... The palm power must also be both hard and soft, and can be released and received at will, making light things heavy and heavy things light..." With Ouyang Feng's understanding, he was able to figure out the true essence of this move "The Dragon's Regrets". But understanding is one thing, but if you want to actually put it into practice, you still need long-term and unremitting hard work and practice. No matter how talented one is in martial arts, one still needs to work hard to strengthen his muscles and bones and accumulate internal strength. After all, kung fu is acquired through practice, not thinking. After practicing martial arts for a while, Ouyang Feng looked up at the bright moon in the sky and suddenly smiled: "It's getting late. If I continue to practice, the night watchman will report me to my father tomorrow morning. I'm afraid he will kill me again... Well, the way of civil and martial arts is to alternate between tension and relaxation. It's time to take a rest." Just as he was about to go to the well to fetch water for a shower, the Tongtian Treasure Mirror in his sea of consciousness suddenly shone brightly, and then a sweet and innocent girl's voice rang out from the mirror:
"Hey, what is this place? Why am I here suddenly?" Ouyang Feng was shocked and looked at the mirror. (End of this chapter)
