The accumulation of internal energy and true energy comes from two aspects. On the one hand, it is the transformation of nutrients inside the human body, and on the other hand, it uses the Baihui point on the top of the head to absorb the natural vitality of heaven and earth.
The more superior the technique, the higher the absorption and transformation efficiency in both aspects.
The deeper the cultivation level, the higher the requirements for the quality and quantity of the vitality of heaven and earth.
This is also the fundamental reason why Xu Yin's martial arts reached a bottleneck after he turned forty in his previous life and was unable to make any significant progress.
Innate Kung Fu is the most superior Kung Fu method, and the internal power accumulation efficiency is certainly not bad. According to normal meditation practice, after one or two years, Xu Yin's internal power will be able to penetrate at least two strange meridians.
However, time waits for no one. Since the energy naturally absorbed from heaven and earth is limited, Xu Yin can only enhance his internal strength by transforming his own nutrition.
Therefore, he eats meat and fish almost every day, and is never short of various supplements such as wild ginseng and cordyceps.
After eating and digesting for a while, he immediately began to practice extremely painful external skills, which were always pushing the limits of his physical fitness.
If it weren't for the innate power, which can repair hidden injuries and self-regulate, ordinary people would have become sick all over the body due to excessive loss of qi and blood.
This is Xu Yin's advantage over Yang Guo. Yang Guo's foundation is still the inner strength and mental method of the Ancient Tomb School, while Xu Yin's is the purest Taoist mental method of the Quanzhen Sect.
Therefore, in the past five months, Xu Yin has practiced so hard, and the results have been remarkable, which is equivalent to the results of two years of daily meditation.
And there was an unexpected surprise. While his internal skills were improved, his external skills also became unusually powerful. Without relying on internal strength, he was able to dance the hundred-pound pole at his feet purely by relying on the strength of his arm muscles.
Huge iron sword.
In other words, even if he does not use internal strength and only relies on external skills, he can become a near-first-class master in the world.
Although the depth of his current internal strength is not as good as that of Zuo Lengchan, Ren Wo Xing, who has been at the level of internal strength for more than 40 years, is only slightly weaker than them.
Xu Yin had penetrated two of the strange sutras, and he speculated that Zuo Lengchan and others had only penetrated four at most.
In the whole world, there should be no one who has completely opened up the eight extraordinary meridians. There is an upper limit to the vitality of heaven and earth in this world!
It is not enough to support a warrior's cultivation to the point where he can fully penetrate the eight extraordinary meridians.
Therefore, even if Shaolin Fang Zheng learns magical skills such as the Yi Jin Jing, the level of his internal skills is limited, not much better than Ren Wo Xing, and cannot form a crushing force.
Xu Yin was thinking about some of his experience in practicing internal energy, but the disciple Liang Fa who was delivering food next to him said: "Senior Brother, Junior Sister Zhu who went down the mountain to buy food... has never returned to the sect."
Xu Yin put down his chopsticks, "Have you sent someone to look for it?"
"Junior Brother Zhang and Junior Brother Lu went out yesterday and haven't come back yet..."
Xu Yin turned to look at Liang Fa and said, "The troublemaker is here. Don't leave the sect. Let me go this time."
"But the leader said that it is probably an ambush from the Songshan Sect, and he will discuss it with you in the afternoon."
"Well, I will discuss it with Master. But...when did the Guanzhong Wulin want to listen to the Central Plains Wulin?"
After Xu Yin finished teaching his disciples, he quickly climbed over the long sky plank road and came to the main peak to see Feng Buping who was practicing Zixia Gong.
"You want to go down the mountain to find the missing disciple?"
"Our Huashan faction has only a small number of people. Everyone is important and cannot be abandoned easily."
"I know this, so I plan to go down the mountain with you."
"That's not necessary. I just want to take a few disciples with me to practice without bothering Master.
With the disciple's new understanding of the heavy sword technique, even if there is an ambush from the Songshan Sect, it will not be a problem."
Feng Buping hesitated for a moment and finally nodded in agreement.
Xu Yin made preparations before going down the mountain, but he did not bring the huge sword weighing a hundred kilograms.
Although he used this sword to practice on daily basis, he could not guarantee that he could control it freely in actual combat.
Therefore, the heavy sword used in actual combat is more than half lighter than the giant sword, only more than forty pounds. It is not cast from crude steel, but forged by himself from hundred-refined pattern steel.
This practical heavy sword is five feet long. When it is erected, the hilt can reach Xu Yin's chest. The spine of the sword is two fingers thick and the blade is five fingers wide.
Xu Yin wrapped the sword with thick black cloth and tied it behind his back. The water-proof sword was still hanging on his waist. Then he called Liang Fa, Lin Pingzhi and Gao Genming to set off down the mountain together.
The three of them looked at the sword on Xu Yin's back and were secretly speechless, thinking about what it would be like to use such a big sword to hit someone.
The four of them came to the country market where Huashan sent his disciples down the mountain to buy goods.
This place is usually only open on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, and there are very few people on weekdays.
The Huashan sect is all in retreat, but more than 20 people always have normal food and drink expenses. They go down to the mountain every two months for large purchases, and they have made agreements in advance with many farmers at the foot of Huashan.
So I came here to ask for relevant information from those farmers.
"The heroes of the Huashan Sect are not unwilling to tell you, but they actually have nothing to tell you.
Zhu Nuxia came here to do some shopping. The men in our village carried all the items into the car and followed her to Huashan.
I thought there were no other problems, but I didn't expect that there was no trace of him again. The village sent people to look for him and reported it to the official. They only knew that there was a fight at the Sancha intersection ten miles away, but what?
None left...
So many young men have been lost in the village, and the mother-in-law cries and the baby screams all day long. We also want to know which gangster family did it, but how can we ordinary people dare to provoke you, the heroes of the world..."
Xu Yin put down two ingots of silver, about a hundred taels, on the table at the village chief's house.
"I probably know what's going on. I want to ask again, after I, Junior Sister Zhu, and Qing Zhuang from your village disappeared together, two more disciples from our Huashan Mountain came to ask for relevant information. Has the village chief seen them?"
"It must be Daxia Zhang and Daxia Lu. They are as polite as you. The old man also told them what he just said. Didn't they go back to Huashan?
If this is the case, then it is best for the heroes not to leave today until the people in our village find the official messenger, who will then go back with you to avoid being punished."
Xu Yin smiled and said, "We probably know what this matter is about. Thanks to my father-in-law for his kindness, I will help distribute the money to the families in the village who have lost their young. We, the Huashan sect, are really ashamed for causing everyone."
As the group left the village, Lin Pingzhi asked: "Senior Brother, is the information so simple? If we go out like this, it can be said that we will be ambushed."
Xu Yin smiled and said: "Of course, if they don't ambush, how can we find them? But there may be a lot of people coming, so you guys should try to stay as close to me as possible."
Several people left the village and naturally came to the market. It was not the first or fifteenth day of the lunar month, so the market was not open. There were not many houses on both sides that were basically vacant, and some damaged tables and chairs were overturned on the roadside.
The footprints of four people walking on the unrepaired soil were printed on the ground, stretching for a long distance.
Xu Yin suddenly stopped and said, "Did you find anything wrong?"
The three of them were stunned. Liang Fa was smarter and looked at the dilapidated thatched wooden houses on both sides of the road, and then looked at the ground.
"The ground here seems to be cleaner than when we came here..."
"Junior Brother Liang has good eyesight, so you must learn from experience. This will help you live longer when you travel around the world.
Why is the floor so clean? It has been cleaned by someone, but it is not the first or fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year and there is no business. Why is it so clean?"
"What are you covering up?!" Lin Pingzhi asked.
Suddenly, the wind blew up dust, and sand danced all over the sky. Everyone subconsciously squinted their eyes to avoid the dust and sand.
suddenly!
Countless powerful arrows and hidden weapons, accompanied by sand and dust, were shot at the four people from the windows and door openings of those rooms, almost in all directions, without any blind spots!
