After the two women showed humility to each other, they changed the topic.
Yuan Xiaolou said curiously: "Husband, didn't you say you came to practice in seclusion?
But when we came in earlier, we saw that you had been running, and you had been running for twelve hours, and you were exhausted. It was so worrying, what are you doing?"
Ye Xiaochuan said: "It's nothing, I'm just exercising. My cultivation has reached a bottleneck and I can't improve it in a short time, so I plan to practice some physical fitness."
"Body training?"
Both girls seemed a little surprised.
Qin's girlfriend said: "Zongci, do you want to be a fellow Xianwu practitioner?"
Ye Xiaochuan looked at her in surprise.
He never told Qin Guichen that he wanted to practice martial arts, but Qin Guichen guessed it in an instant.
Ye Xiaochuan said: "You have this idea, dear friend, it seems that you have some understanding of martial arts?"
Qin's girlfriend said: "It's not even close to understanding. There are a group of madmen in the heaven. They are very keen on cultivating the body and pursuing the path to Taoism through the body.
There are many of these people, but very few have truly reached the Mahayana realm in martial arts.
However, once they break through their physical limits, their combat power is extraordinary."
Yuan Xiaolou said: "A few years ago, I also heard my grandfather talk about entering Taoism through martial arts. Grandpa said that the training methods of martial arts have been lost long ago, and only some superficial knowledge has been passed down, forming today's worldly martial arts world.
More than 600 years ago, Si Nanbo, the leader of the Beggar Clan, broke through the limits of the physical body and could fly physically, which was equivalent to the combat power of the peak human out-of-body realm.
But after Si Nanbo reached this level, he was accepted as a disciple by the then master of the Huashan Broken Sword Sect, and from then on he turned to the path of immortal swordsmanship.
Grandpa said it was a pity for Uncle Si Nan. If he could continue to study martial arts, he might be able to reach the level of a martial arts master named Huang Lu from the Holy Fire Sect in the past."
Ye Xiaochuan became interested and asked Yuan Xiaolou to explain in detail whether the old storyteller had said anything about martial arts.
Yuan Xiaolou pondered: "About the martial arts lineage, my grandpa told me three or four years ago. Grandpa said that martial arts training is not a step back from the times, on the contrary, it is in line with the times.
When the heaven and earth first opened, the human world had just split from the Hongmeng state, so the human world was filled with rich and terrifying chaotic energy.
Therefore, in ancient times, almost all cultivators in the human world practiced Hunyuan Qi.
The Hunyuan Qi is extremely domineering and has strong combat power. After cultivating it to a high level, it can turn its hands into clouds and rain. All of them have the power of gods. That is why we now call this group of cultivators ancient gods and demons.
Later, as time passed and millions of years passed, the chaotic energy in the world gradually became thinner.
However, human beings' desire to pursue power has not weakened, so when the chaotic energy was thin, the ancestors of mankind began to find another way and turned to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
It was at that time that the ancient human classic book of heaven was born.
Nowadays, cultivators in the human world have been cultivating the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for millions of years, and the spiritual energy of the human world has been almost absorbed. Now each sect has large spiritual gathering arrays, which absorb all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the place where they are.
The mountains and rivers where the sect is located can provide the spiritual energy needed by the disciples.
Grandpa said that within hundreds of thousands of years, the aura of the human world would be gradually absorbed by cultivators like the energy of chaos.
But humans will never give up the pursuit of immortality and powerful power just because their spiritual energy is exhausted.
At that time, there will definitely be a brand new cultivation method that will replace the spiritual energy cultivation method.
Grandpa said that the martial arts lineage is very likely to succeed the immortal way and become the main body of human cultivation in the future.
Martial arts practitioners do not practice spiritual energy, but true energy.
This true energy does not come from nature, but from human beings themselves, just like the true fire of Samadhi.
At that time, I remembered that my grandfather also said that before the method of cultivating immortals appeared, the ancient human ancestors practiced martial arts, practiced physical fitness, and strengthened themselves to compete with the harsh weather and wild beasts and monsters in the ancient world.
It was only later that the Immortal Way appeared, and the Martial Arts was abandoned by humans.
I remember clearly what my grandfather said at that time. He said that the end of the martial arts is the immortal path, and the end of the immortal path is the martial arts. This is a cycle of reincarnation.
Husband, you plan to practice martial arts, which is a good thing. If you are really a fellow practitioner of immortal martial arts, you may be able to achieve something else."
Ye Xiaochuan nodded slightly.
The lady Qin next to her was speechless.
She finally saw that Yuan Xiaolou only knew that martial arts was very powerful, but he didn't understand how difficult it was to practice martial arts.
There are a large number of people practicing martial arts in the heaven, and the pain and torture they endure is unimaginable to ordinary people.
Qin Guichen naturally believed that with Ye Xiaochuan's mind, he could persevere.
However, the longer he persisted, the more pain Ye Xiaochuan endured.
Qin Guichen just wants Ye Xiaochuan to be safe and happy. If Ye Xiaochuan gets a knife on her body, it will hurt more than a cut on her body.
However, many years of getting along with Ye Xiaochuan made Qin Guichen understand that once Ye Xiaochuan has made a decision, he will not change it easily. Even if he persuades him, Ye Xiaochuan will not listen.
After talking about martial arts, Ye Xiaochuan began to issue orders to expel guests.
It's really hard to issue this expulsion order, so we have to find a new way to do it.
When he first came in, he saw that the wooden houses next door had also been cleared, and Ye Xiaochuan knew that Qin Guichen and Yuan Xiaolou planned to live here permanently.
The two of them came in today and had no intention of going back.
So, Ye Xiaochuan started rambling.
He said: "My dear friend, how has Changfeng been doing since I came in? Have you followed Master Xu to listen to the lectures?"
Qin's girlfriend said: "Since you taught him the mental formula the day before yesterday, he obviously has no interest in reading. In the past two days, he only listened to Master Xu for a while, and then went to the stone room to meditate and practice."
Ye Xiaochuan frowned, with a serious look on his face, and stood up and said: "This is what I am most worried about. Changfeng is still young, and his main purpose now is to learn how to be a human being, not to practice.
My dear friend, you and Xiaolou should go out quickly and watch Changfeng all the time. Don’t let him waste his time on cultivation."
Yuan Xiaolou said: "Husband, my girlfriend, sister, and I have no plans to go out.
We plan to take care of you here for a few months. Anyway, the timeline here is different from that of the human world. A few months have passed here, but only a few have passed outside. Changfeng shouldn't worry about it."
Ye Xiaochuan said seriously: "Changfeng is now at the most critical moment in his life. Let alone a few days, we cannot slack off on him even for a quarter of an hour. You guys should go out and help me look after him."
Yuan Xiaolou looked suspicious.
I always feel like something is wrong.
Qin Guichen and Ye Xiaochuan have lived together for a long time, and they already understand what Ye Xiaochuan means.
He didn't want to leave the two of them here, not because he was hiding from them, but because he didn't want them to see the miserable state of his martial arts practice.
Qin Guichen sighed in his heart, turned to Xiaolou and said: "Sister Xiaolou, Zongci is right, let's pack up and go back."
