The magic of "The Secret of Immortality" exceeded Meng Xiuyuan's expectation.
Let’s not mention the supreme state of the “Broken King Kong” that Shi Long said is too profound for the moment. Just talking about the immediate improvement that this magical skill brings to Meng Xiuyuan is real.
After completing the first picture and taking the path of strengthening the lungs with the innate Gengjin Qi, Meng Xiuyuan worked hard and then began to practice the subsequent four humanoid images.
Sure enough, just like the first picture, running the "Secret of Immortality" naturally attracted the four innate essences of wood, water, fire, and earth between heaven and earth, which strengthened Meng Xiuyuan's liver, kidneys, and heart in a targeted manner.
, the four important internal organs of the spleen.
Although it also strengthens the body, the path taken by this "Secret of Immortality" is quite different from the "Physical Strengthening Technique" summarized by Meng Xiuyuan in the past.
Directly taking the essence of heaven and earth to strengthen the five internal organs of the human body, the secrets of the skills are really profound, which not only helps Meng Xiuyuan's physical body to further strengthen, but also benefits Meng Xiuyuan a lot from the theoretical level of body training.
"So, Mr. Meng, you have perfected the first five pictures.
Then why don't you start practicing the sixth and seventh pictures as soon as possible?
Didn't you say that the last two paintings are the key to "Secret of Immortality"?"
In the quiet room, Shi Long looked at Meng Xiuyuan and asked eagerly.
More than two months have passed since the last accident. During this period, Meng Xiuyuan has been living in Shilong's hut, concentrating on studying the remaining contents of "The Secret of Immortality".
As the master, Shi Long not only tried his best to provide Meng Xiuyuan with convenience in life, but also asked with concern about Meng Xiuyuan's practice every day.
Every time Meng Xiuyuan made some progress in "The Secret of Immortality", Mr. Shi was actually happier than himself.
Meng Xiuyuan was grateful for this, but also found it quite interesting.
"Mr. Shi, you have been seeking enlightenment for many years, so you probably know better than me.
I really can't be impatient about this practice.
The same goes for you. After all, you have to take your time so that you can wait for the opportunity..."
Meng Xiuyuan reached out and poured a cup of tea for Shi Long and said to him seriously.
Ever since Meng Xiuyuan completed the first picture of the "Secret of Immortality" two months ago, he has not hidden any secrets and has been helping Shi Long, hoping that he can also practice this skill.
Unfortunately, the "Secret of Immortality" is so profound and profound that it has transcended the scope of ordinary martial arts.
Even though Meng Xiuyuan had told Shi Long all his experience and understanding, it was still difficult to help him get started.
There are three difficulties in practicing "The Art of Immortality". First, its special nature will conflict with your own original martial arts; second, the human body is not adaptable to the infusion of heaven and earth essence when you first practice, and it is easy to mistake it for being possessed and do not dare to continue practicing.
The third is that practitioners need to adjust to the wonderful state of "forgetting both things and myself, and keeping the mind between reality and reality".
Among them, the first two items were reminded by Meng Xiuyuan, and Shi Long was able to overcome them, but the third point, even Meng Xiuyuan himself could barely achieve by activating the "enlightenment state" at that time.
For Shilong, who is not extremely talented in understanding, he really needs to maintain a good state for a long time and wait for a lucky coincidence in his soul before he can learn this skill.
No, Shi Long didn't care after hearing the sound and just smiled slightly.
"I understand, Mr. Meng.
It has been nearly three years since I obtained this magical book, but I have still not succeeded. Before that, I thought that there was no hope of me being able to practice this skill in this life, so I was very upset.
But your appearance gave me confidence.
Since someone can practice it successfully, it means that this "Secret of Immortality" is not a scam, and I still have hope.
Every time I hear about your progress in cultivation, Master, my heart becomes calmer..."
After saying this, Shi Long paused for a moment, glanced at the "Secret of Immortality" placed on the table between the two of them, and continued with a little emotion: "So please tell me, Mr. Meng, what is your plan?"
.
Why don't you rush to practice the next two pictures after you finish the first five pictures?
If I have the opportunity to cultivate to this point in the future, I might as well learn from a genius like you."
Meng Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then suddenly understood why Mr. Shi was so concerned about his cultivation progress.
But seeing that the other party said this, he couldn't avoid it anymore, so he had to answer directly:
"Mr. Shi, don't be surprised. The reason why I didn't say anything just now is actually because I am still thinking about it myself.
After practicing the first five paintings, although I have indeed filled up the energy of the five internal organs, I can continue to practice the next two paintings.
But I always feel that I owe something in between, making my practice unsatisfactory..."
"Ow something?"
Shi Long was very surprised when he heard this. He couldn't figure out why Meng Xiuyuan was still hesitating because there was no content in the fifth and sixth pictures.
Meng Xiuyuan nodded and slowly explained to Shi Long:
"Well, I have a vague feeling that the previous five pictures do not exist in isolation.
The five elements rotate and create and inhibit each other, and the same is true for the five internal organs.
Therefore, recently I have been trying to see if I can run the exercise routes in these five pictures at the same time so that they are related to each other..."
Shi Long was stunned when he heard this. He first looked at Meng Xiuyuan deeply, then sighed and said:
"No wonder Mr. Meng has mastered this magical skill, but I have always had difficulty getting started.
With this mentality of striving for excellence alone, I am not as good as you, young master."
Meng Xiuyuan smiled and shook his head when he heard this, and said modestly:
"Mr. Shi is overly complimentary. This is just my unfounded conjecture. I don't know whether it is correct.
And I tried for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out and it was difficult to succeed.
If Mr. Shi reaches my level in cultivation, he may not necessarily learn from me."
Speaking of this, Meng Xiuyuan hesitated for a moment, and finally said to Shi Long:
"Mr. Ruoshi will definitely try this when the time comes. My experience is that it is best to adjust the five elements of Qi in the body so that the five Qi and the five internal organs can reach a balanced state as much as possible.
This is what I have been doing recently, but the five internal organs of the human body are not actively functioning at all times. To make them completely balanced, it requires a lot of patience and a little luck."

Shilong's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he sighed at Meng Xiuyuan's sincerity in telling everything he knew, and solemnly raised his hand to Meng Xiuyuan, and immediately took "Longevity"
Jue" turned around and walked out of the door, no longer disturbing Meng Xiuyuan's practice.
…
In the next few days, Shi Long never came to disturb Meng Xiuyuan's practice. Occasionally, Meng Xiuyuan even took the initiative to find him when something happened, but he was nowhere to be seen in the house, and he didn't know what he was doing when he went out.
Out of respect for personal privacy, Meng Xiuyuan did not ask for the reason.
Until noon that day, Shi Long knocked on the door and interrupted Meng Xiuyuan's practice:
"Mr. Meng, I'm sorry to disturb you.
But there are some things I want to tell you..."
Meng Xiuyuan was very surprised when he heard the sound. Hearing Shi Long's solemn voice, it was obvious that there was something important. He quickly collected his thoughts and gathered his strength, waved his sleeves and opened the door, inviting Shi Long in.
"If you need anything, Mr. Shi, just tell me."
Shi Long walked in slowly without saying much. He first took out a silk book from his arms and handed it to Meng Xiuyuan, and then said:
"Mr. Meng, take this thing and leave quickly."
Meng Xiuyuan suddenly heard that Shi Long had issued an order to expel guests, and felt a little strange. He subconsciously opened the silk book and saw that it was a rubbing of "The Secret of Immortality". It was printed very finely and was almost the same as the original.
"Mr. Shi, what's going on?
What trouble have you encountered?"
When Meng Xiu saw this situation, he subconsciously felt that something was wrong and immediately asked Shi Long.
Shi Long shook his head when he heard the sound and said in a low voice:
"There's no trouble now, but trouble will come eventually..."
Meng Xiuyuan frowned slightly and asked aloud:
"Mr. Shi, what you mean is that you got the news and someone is going to embarrass you?"
Shi Long shook his head when he heard the sound and explained to Meng Xiuyuan:
"No, but you can guess it.
After all, since Mr. Meng, you can receive the news of "The Secret of Immortality" and find me, it means that the news has been leaked, and others will be able to find it sooner or later.
This magical skill is the supreme method of Taoism, and it is coveted by many people in the world.
In the past hundreds of years, every time this magical power appeared in the world, it would cause a bloody storm, and countless people would die because of it.
Mr. Meng has a broad mind. Even if he defeated me, he only wanted to study this kung fu with me. This is really admirable.
But next time someone else comes, I’m afraid it will be difficult for someone to be as kind as the young master..."
At this point, Shi Long paused for a moment, first looked at Meng Xiuyuan, bowed deeply, and then said apologetically:
"Mr. Meng, to tell you the truth, I have actually thought of this a long time ago.
The reason why I haven't mentioned it to you is because before this, I always had some small thoughts in my heart.
I feel that if you stay with me to study the "Secret of Immortality", then when a powerful enemy comes, it will be much safer for the two of us to deal with it together than on my own.
I'm sorry, Mr. Meng. You treat me sincerely, but I have always been plotting against you."
When Meng Xiuyuan heard Shi Long's words, he didn't blame him. After all, it is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Such careful thoughts are not considered intentional frame-ups.
However, Meng Xiuyuan was still a little curious and couldn't help but ask:
"Since Mr. Shi had this intention, why did he suddenly change his mind today?"
Shi Long smiled bitterly and sighed towards Meng Xiuyuan:
"It's not that I changed my mind today. It was because a few days ago when I heard Mr. Meng talking to me about the specific details of practicing the "Secret of Immortality", I was touched by your attitude of telling me everything.
I can feel that Young Master, you were really thinking about me at that time and wanted me to practice as smoothly as possible in the future.
But in my heart, I am still plotting against you.
Comparing the two, it is really shameful...
Perhaps this is the reason why a layman like me cannot practice the "Secret of Immortality"."
When Meng Xiuyuan heard this, he lowered his head and looked at the finely rubbed copy of "The Secret of Immortality" in his hand, pondered for a moment, and then asked Shi Long:
"Mr. Shi, have you been busy printing this copy for me these days?"
Shi Long shook his head and said to Meng Xiuyuan:
"It's one of them. The other thing is to disband my 'Shilong Dojo'.
Over the years, I have accepted many disciples in my dojo, but I have not taught them many real skills. This is my dereliction of duty.
Now, seeing that a powerful enemy is about to attack, I still don't know whether I can resist it.
It would be completely unreasonable to let these disciples follow me and suffer innocent disasters..."
When Meng Xiuyuan heard this, his heart moved, and he secretly thought that Shi Long's character was really not bad, and he immediately asked with concern:
"Mr. Shi, have you thought about where to hide?"
Unexpectedly, Shi Long still shook his head and whispered to Meng Xiuyuan:
"The possession of the "Secret of Immortality" has been exposed, and I don't want to give up this sacred book.
Then it would be useless to hide all over the world.
It is better to stay here in Yangzhou City and wait for a full-scale battle with the incoming enemy.
Ever since I got this "Secret of Immortality", I have been keeping my head and tail hidden and living in seclusion, fearing that the news would leak out. As time went by, I became suffocated in my heart.
This battle, maybe I can clear my mind between life and death, and it will help me step into the threshold of "The Secret of Immortality"..."
Meng Xiuyuan chuckled when he heard this, and immediately pushed the silk book in his hand back to Shi Long, and then took the original copy of "The Secret of Immortality" in his hand.
"Mr. Meng, what are you doing?"
Seeing this, Shi Long couldn't figure out Meng Xiuyuan's intention for a moment. He didn't think that with Meng Xiuyuan's character, he would take away his original copy of "The Secret of Immortality".
"There are many strange things about this sacred book, and the copy may not be able to capture its essence. Otherwise, there would not be only such an original copy handed down for thousands of years.
I haven't mastered Kung Fu yet, so I have to read the original text to avoid going astray.
Since Mr. Shi wants to stay, I will accompany you for a while..."
Meng Xiu looked away, smiled slightly, and said calmly.
Shi Long heard the sound and looked at Meng Xiuyuan with disbelief in his heart, and was speechless for a moment.
…
In this way, life in the hut went on as usual.
The sense of urgency of the powerful enemy's attack was shattered by Meng Xiuyuan's words. Compared with before, Shi Long's cultivation state was much better.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The only difference is that the Shilong Dojo was disbanded, and there are no more disciples who regularly deliver daily necessities to the two of them.
Shi Long originally wanted to hire someone to help with errands, but he couldn't find anyone who knew the details, so he simply gave up in order to avoid trouble.
Meng Xiuyuan and Shi Long took turns going to Yangzhou City to buy some groceries every few days.
On this day, it was Meng Xiuyuan's turn, and he went out early in the morning.
It was a troubled time, but the city of Yangzhou was still prosperous, and the market was crowded with people, almost shoulder to shoulder.
Meng Xiuyuan finished the shopping quickly and was about to turn around and go back home to continue practicing. Unexpectedly, he suddenly heard a cry from the crowd:
"Help! Someone come quickly, help me!!"
Hearing the sound, Meng Xiuyuan jumped up quickly and flew up from the crowd. Only then did he see that it was an old man with snow-white hair and a skinny body sitting on the ground looking up to the sky and mourning.
His wailing naturally attracted the attention of the people around him, but unlike Meng Xiuyuan who flew towards him, all the onlookers around him subconsciously stayed away from him.
When Meng Xiuyuan fell, a large space was already vacant around the old man.
"Old man, what's wrong with you?!"
Meng Xiuyuan stretched out his hand to help the old man up, and subconsciously used his true energy to move around his body, but no injuries were seen, which made him feel a little strange.
When the old man saw Meng Xiuyuan falling from the sky, he was surprised and felt as if he had found a savior. He immediately hugged his arm, and then continued to cry heartbreakingly:
"Hero! Master! You must save me!
My wallet was stolen, and it contains all my savings!!"
Meng Xiuyuan was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that the old man was crying so hard because he lost his money bag.
He was about to open his mouth to comfort him, but suddenly he heard a whisper coming from a distant corner. Although the voice was soft, it still couldn't escape Meng Xiuyuan's ears.
"Hey, Master Zhong, I think this old man is quite pitiful. How about we return the money bag to him..."
I'm sorry that this chapter is half an hour late, which has affected many friends who are waiting for the update.
I was really stuck in Kawen today and couldn't hold it in anymore. I felt like I was dying.
The state is very poor, and I am not very satisfied with what I wrote.
For the rest of the content, I’m going to take a day off to adjust and sort out the plot.
