Chapter 84: Martial Arts Development and the Second Island Landing Test
After Yang Jin finished the medicinal meal, he handed the empty bowl to Su Rou, stood up, held a long sword, and started gesticulating slowly in the courtyard.
What he was practicing was the "Thirteen Basic Sword Techniques" that he had created recently.
In the past, at this time every day, he would have to practice the "Three Treasures Arhat Boxing" to harden his body and coagulate his blood before washing and resting.
Because after taking medicated food, practicing "Three Treasures Arhat Boxing" has the best effect on blood coagulation and body tempering.
But today, because Dong Cheng was by his side, it was difficult for him to use the "Three Treasures Arhat Fist" to temper his body and coagulate his blood.
I had no choice but to practice swordsmanship on the surface, but actually practiced the unique internal cultivation method of "Three Treasures Arhat Boxing" internally, combined with the sword postures to secretly breathe and exhale, use energy and breath control, and temper the body and coagulate the blood.
"Three Treasures Arhat Boxing" uses Qi to guide the form, and the inside and outside are integrated. The outside posture is not the most important.
The most important thing is the unique breathing, breathing and regulating methods contained in the boxing method. This is the supreme method that can strengthen the original foundation and temper the body and coagulate blood.
Yang Jin was not very proficient at the beginning because of the double-purpose method of using swordsmanship and the unique method of breathing and regulating Qi in "Three Treasures Arhat Fist".
Therefore, every time this move is performed, it becomes stumbling, extremely slow, and every move is like that of an old man.
In order to prevent Dong Cheng from seeing the flaw, he wanted to divert Dong Cheng's attention with some questions.
So while he was practicing, he asked: "Brother, you just mentioned the first reason for the rapid development of martial arts in the past four hundred years.
It is because the martial arts conference held every sixty years due to the invitation to the Sun Moon Qiankun Island in the South China Sea has promoted the exchanges and exchanges among martial arts people, discussed each other's progress, and accelerated the development of martial arts.
The emergence of the "Heavenly List" and "Earthly List" has greatly stimulated the determination of people in the martial arts community to practice martial arts desperately.
These are the direct reasons for the rapid development of martial arts, so what are the other two reasons?"
"As for the second reason, it has to do with the first martial arts conference!"
When Dong Cheng heard Yang Jin ask this question, he stopped staring at Yang Jin's sword skills and found a stone bench to sit down.
"Why do you say that?
It was because after the first martial arts conference was held, a group of masters in the arena, under the leadership of various sects, worked together to destroy the Great Zhou Dynasty.
It can be regarded as a complete change in the power structure in the world.
From then on, the four kingdoms of Eastern Qi, Northern Wei, Southern Liang, and Western Shu stood side by side, and the world was divided into two!"
Yang Jin felt a little strange: "How can the world be divided into two parts?
How can the four countries divide the world into two parts? Is it an alliance between the four countries?"
"You don't know this!
Although the world is divided into four countries, these four countries are indeed in the same camp.
The so-called two-part world means that the major forces in the martial arts formed the Tianxia Alliance and the Four Kingdoms Court to jointly control the world.
Although people in the martial arts world love fame and fortune, most of them are careless people. Few of them have the talent to manage the world, and the major forces are extremely loosely distributed.
Therefore, although the Tianxia Alliance is strong, it does not have the ability or intention to control the power of the world.
In particular, the top leaders of the Tianxia Alliance have always been held by "masters of the Heavenly Ranking" in the righteous path of martial arts.
These masters on the Heavenly Ranking list, with their martial arts skills and divine abilities, naturally do not take the greatest power in the world seriously.
Some of them are obsessed with martial arts, busy studying martial arts and pondering the development of martial arts all day long, and have no intention of participating in secular rights.
Some people also like to travel around the world, be proud of the rivers and lakes, wander around the world, and the dragon never ends.
Therefore, the power to govern the people of the world is still held by the imperial courts of the four countries.
However, the Four Kingdoms are in charge of people's livelihood and well-being, but they have little involvement in the affairs of the martial arts world.
Most of the affairs in the arena are resolved by the various factions under the leadership of the Tianxia Alliance.
Even violent yamen like the Shenhuamen were under the dual management of the Eastern Qi court and the Tianxia League.
The rivers and lakes, the government and the opposition, and the people do not interfere with each other, and the world suddenly becomes so stable and peaceful.
At this point, there has been no major war in the world for more than 400 years. During this period, the country is peaceful and the people are prosperous. It can be said to be a rare prosperous era in history.
Because although the world is divided into two parts, the martial arts world is still very powerful, so the status of those who practice martial arts is extremely high in this world.
The world has been at peace for a long time, the people are prosperous, the population has increased significantly, resources and food are sufficient, and the practice of martial arts among the people has become more and more popular, so more and more people practice martial arts.
With more people practicing martial arts, the probability of becoming a master will naturally increase greatly.
So many people practice martial arts and study the art of martial arts day and night.
All kinds of fantastic ideas and unconstrained ideas are constantly emerging, which lays a solid foundation for the rapid development of martial arts.
As for the third reason!
I think among the three reasons, this reason is the most important.
That is, every year, invitations will be sent out asking people to go to the island to learn about the Sun Moon Universe Island in the South China Sea where the monument was created.
This creation monument on the Sun Moon Universe Island in the South China Sea is worthy of being the most amazing object in the universe and a treasure of creation.
The ancient martial arts methods engraved on the stele are extremely profound, profound and mysterious.
Over the years, not only some people have learned from it many peerless martial arts skills that shocked the world.
There are also people who have learned from it all kinds of strange knowledge about medicine, formations, creation, music, calligraphy, craftsmanship, weapon refining, farming, alchemy, mechanisms, etc.
In the past four hundred years, many senior masters have understood many peerless magical skills and various unparalleled skills from the martial arts illustrations on the stone monuments.
There are as many as twenty martial arts secret arts that reach the third level, and many of them have even become the secret arts of some top sects.
There are more than 30 classics on medicine, formations, creation, craftsmanship, weapon refining, farming, alchemy, mechanisms, etc. that have been comprehended.
Each of these magical skills that can be understood from the creation stone tablets is a unique magical skill that is rare in the world.
Such many magical skills have naturally greatly enriched the martial arts heritage of various sects in the martial arts world, and also laid a solid foundation for improving the highest level of martial arts."
Hearing that the artificial stone monument on Sun Moon Qiankun Island in the South China Sea was so miraculous, Yang Jin, who was practicing his sword, couldn't help but his eyes lit up and he couldn't help but stop what he was doing.
He hurriedly asked Dong Cheng: "Brother, I heard you say that the stone monuments on Sun Moon Qiankun Island in the South China Sea are so magical.
Moreover, people from the martial arts community are invited to the island every sixty years to learn about the created stone monuments.
Then, do you know when the last time you went to the island was?"
After all, the practice of swordsmanship is different from walking and writing. Yang Jin is practicing the sword while using the newly developed dual-purpose method, and is still a little unskilled in combining it with the Three Jewels Arhat Fist.
In particular, running the unique breathing method of "Three Treasures Arhat Boxing", which hardens the body and coagulates the blood, consumes a lot of energy.
Moreover, since it was the first time to use the sword technique in conjunction with the internal cultivation method of Sanbao Luohan Quan, it was difficult to do two things at the same time at first.
In the end, Yang Jin was helpless and knew that he might be a little greedy for success.
Being greedy for more and seeking speed is a bit of a waste of time.
So he changed the way he practiced swordsmanship. He just used one of the thirteen basic swordsmanship moves, the "stabbing sword move", and combined it with the internal cultivation method of Sanbao Arhat Fist. Sure enough, the effect was different.
After practicing slowly for dozens of times, Yang Jin felt a little exhausted.
At this time, I also wanted to take a break while talking to Dong Cheng.
Dong Chengdao: "The latest time should be eight years later.
Because it has been fifty-two years since the last martial arts competition."
"Then how can we board the Sun Moon Universe Island in the South China Sea and understand the creation monuments on the island?"
Yang Jin is very interested in this, after all, he has in his hand a copy of "Shaoyang Magic" which was obtained by senior masters who understood the stone monuments created on Sun Moon Qiankun Island in the South China Sea.
I heard that eight years later, the Sun Moon Qiankun Island in the South China Sea will invite people to the island again to learn about the creation monuments on the island.
Yang Jin feels that he is lucky, after all, he still has eight years to increase his strength.
Moreover, the trip to Sun Moon Qiankun Island in the South China Sea eight years later was just right for his age.
Neither will you miss the opportunity because the time is too far away from the present, nor will you be unable to go because your own strength is too low.
Thinking of this, Yang Jin couldn't help but feel a little excited and stared at Dong Cheng.
I just want to know how he can board the Sun Moon Qiankun Island in the South China Sea after eight years and go to the island to understand the creation stone monument.
Dong Chengdao: "Brother, we have to go to Sun Moon Qiankun Island in the South China Sea to understand the creation monuments on the island. They are still the same as those two times more than 400 years ago.
You must have an invitation issued by Sun Moon Qiankun Island in the South China Sea.
No one will be allowed to go to the island without an invitation.
Especially after the first martial arts conference, this has been the case for more than four hundred years.
At that time, people in the world thought that the second anonymous invitation sent by Sun Moon Qiankun Island in the South China Sea was just a scam.
However, there are also people, especially those who hold invitations in their hands, who are still lucky.
With the idea of giving it a try, most of them gathered on the coast of the South China Sea in February of the next year and waited for the arrival of the spring equinox at the designated place on the Sun, Moon, and Universe Island in the South China Sea.
"Unexpectedly, on the day of the Spring Equinox, people actually came to the Sun Moon Universe Island in the South China Sea.
And it’s exactly what the eight people who visited the island said more than 40 years ago.
Visitors to the Sun Moon Qiankun Island in the South China Sea conducted a life and death test on all those who came with invitations before entering the island. Those who did not pass the test were never allowed to enter the island!
At that time, everyone participated in the test of entering the island, but the situation was extremely tragic, even extremely cruel!
Just as those who landed on the island for the first time and returned alive said, five to six hundred people participated in the test of going to the island.
However, only a few people passed by, less than thirty people.
The remaining people who failed the test of life and death all died on the spot, without exception, and the cause of death was unknown.
Even after a year, not many people can finally walk out of the Sun Moon Qiankun Island in the South China Sea alive.
Only one more than the number of people who came back from the island for the first time, only nine people.
