Chapter 186 You Are Too Old to Get a Promotion!
On the arena .
“Senior, watch out . ”
Elder Yi put out a move . His hands combined with hardness as well as softness, which had the style of Tai Chi but without the charm of Tai Chi .
“Hmm?”
Fang Qiu lit up his eyes .
He thought in his heart . “This kind of move is not Tai Chi but it’s similar to Tai Chi . It’s both offensive and defensive . And it’s advanced than the kung fu that other people used . ”
Apparently, Fang Qiu was interested in the kung fu of Elder Yi .
Different from Fang Qiu, Elder Yi was extremely cautious .
His eyes were fixed on Fang Qiu .
He moved his feet .
They were flexible like wind and sharp like blades .
“Swish . ”
Almost in an instant, as Elder Yi moved his feet, his body rushed to Fang Qiu instantly like a sword out of a scabbard .
Seeing this, Fang Qiu was more pleased inwardly .
He touched the ground with his tiptoes . At the same time when Elder Yi rushed in front of him, he soared with his arms spread .
“Ho!”
Seeing Fang Qiu had escaped his attacks, Elder Yi suddenly stopped his feet . While shouting, he heavily stamped his foot on the ground . When the bluestone floor was cracked, his body rose high into midair . With a move of the black dragon out of the sea, he fiercely attacked toward Fang Qiu .
“What a strong momentum!”
Fang Qiu smiled slightly .
Then he fixed his eyes and suddenly spun his body .
With his head and feet upside down, he punched Elder Yi who was rushing to him .
“Bang!”
There came a collision with a bang .
It could be seen that .
In the collision with Fang Qiu, the body of Elder Yi who stood like a giant was oppressed by Fang Qiu . He fell down at extremely fast speed, heavily hitting on the arena .
“Crack crack…”
Under the huge impact, Elder Yi landed on his feet, quickly pointing the toes and clenching the buttocks . The arena, which had been trampled with many cracks, shook with a loud crash .
Starting from Elder Yi’s feet, the crack rapidly spread around .
Taking a closer look .
Under Elder Yi’s feet, two cobweb crack areas with a circumference of one meter suddenly appeared .
“What strong force!”
Elder Yi was surprised .
While completely discharging the impact from the fist of Fang Qiu, he immediately stepped out .
Fang Qiu’s tiptoe touched the arena .
Before landing, he actually sped out in midair and caught up with Elder Yi immediately .
His hands, like dragons, waved a lot of phantoms .
When Elder Yi was frightened, he couldn’t retreat . He moved his hands and exerted all his strength, fighting with Fang Qiu .
“Clap clap clap…”
The fierce crash was continuous .
Under the arena .
All the people were staring at Fang Qiu and Elder Yi . They were totally immersed in the wonderful duel so much that they were afraid to miss a second .
But on the arena .
The collision became more and more intense .
After several moves, Fang Qiu finally landed on his feet, wrestling with Elder Yi on the arena .
Without any doubt .
Fang Qiu was taking the opportunity to learn the moves of kung fu from Elder Yi, so he slowed down his offense and gradually became defensive .
Elder Yi seemed to have found this .
Seeing that Fang Qiu didn’t attack him but defended him, he immediately burst out all the strength that couldn’t be exerted when Fang Qiu suppressed him just now .
“Ho . ”
As Elder Yi fiercely attacked Fang Qiu, he shook his right arm, surged internal Qi, and directly slapped Fang Qiu’s belly ruthlessly .
No one expected that .
Fang Qiu stretched out his right hand, grasping the purlicue of Elder Yi directly and then pressing down .
“Pah!”
A crack was spread .
Under Fang Qiu’s suppress, Elder Yi’s palm heavily hit on the ground, directly creating a hole with the head size on the bluish stone of the ground . The bluestone around was also cracked up instantly .
“Your internal Qi is not weak . ”
Fang Qiu smiled slightly and retreated back as he stretched out his hands, letting Elder Yi attack him again .
Just after that .
Cracks of stones were spread .
Every attack of Elder Yi was almost easily dodged by Fang Qiu .
But Elder Yi couldn’t easily dodge Fang Qiu’s attacks . If it was not Fang Qiu who transferred the attack at the critical moment, Elder Yi maybe had already been beaten to spit blood .
On the arena, it was a mess .
It was full of holes .
Under the arena .
Everyone was shocked .
Although they knew that after entering the Martial Superior Realm, the strength would increase a lot, no one expected that an expert at the first-class Martial Superior Level could actually smash the bluish stone instantly .
Smashing a stone with a palm was a really terrifying thing .
“Is this the power of the first-class Martial Superior Level?”
“So terrifying!”
“Elder Yi can crack the bluish stone easily, but compared with Senior John Doe, Elder Yi is worth much than him . ”
“Yes, what Elder Yi can do is just cracking the bluish stone, but every time when Senior John Doe stretched out his hands, he almost could smash the bluish stone . This is just the power of the first-class Martial Superior Level . I’m really wondering what if Senior John Doe exert all his strength . ”
“I can’t imagine that!”
“If Senior John Doe exerts all his strength, the arena will have been broken into pieces . ”
“I’m damned . I actually suspected Senior John Doe wasn’t an expert . With his current combat strength, he also can punch me into pieces . I’m damned . ”
“That can be called a combat!”
Under the shocking discussion of the audience under the arena .
The fight between Fang Qiu and Elder Yi had been close to an end .
All of a sudden .
“Senior, I’m sorry!”
Elder Yi took a step backward with his hands circled around his body . A very strong Qi power suddenly surged from his body, like the wind in the desert which scattered the stones on the ground .
“Hmm?”
Fang Qiu narrowed his eyes slightly .
He kept close eyes on Elder Yi’s movements .
The next moment .
When Elder Yi reached out his hands, Fang Qiu actually moved his body and copied the movement of Elder Yi completely, flying toward Elder Yi fast .
“Bang!”
There was a loud bang .
On the arena, under the impact of internal Qi from the two of them, a large amount of smoke dust rose from the cracks in the ground .
In the smoke dust .
A figure was moving backwards .
Taking a closer look .
This person was obviously Elder Yi .
When they looked at the other side .
Fang Qiu was standing in place, motionless .
Under that arena .
“So Amazing!”
“Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!
“I did not come to this comparing-notes assembly in vain . Those so-called comparing-notes are not comparable with this one at all!”
“Yes . What a horrible skill . What great power . What a thrilling fight!”
“Senior John Doe deserves to be a senior!”
“It’s so enjoyable . If there is such a competition every day, I’d rather stay here all the time . ”
The shock in everyone’s eyes hadn’t gone . They all could not help exclaiming .
After all .
They were basically martial arts practitioners . This could be regarded as the first time they saw the battle of the Martial Superior Level . This kind of battle had been beyond their imagination, so their shock was reasonable .
On the arena .
“It’s the first time in my life to see your learning ability . ”
Having known that he had lost, Elder Yi did not feel uncomfortable at all . Instead, he praised Fang Qiu as he clenched a fist to Fang Qiu .
Although Elder Yi was praising him .
Fang Qiu knew that Elder Yi was ridiculing him for learning moves from Elder Yi furtively .
“I’m flattered . ”
Fang Qiu threw his fist in return .
“Since I have stolen your moves, what can you do to me?”
“Besides, the reason why I came here is to learn some moves furtively . ”
“I’m wondering after this competition, have you seen any problem of me?”
Speaking of the competition, Elder Yi suddenly became serious and said, “Why do I always stop at the first-class Martial Superior Level? Why can’t I always get a promotion?”
Under the sparkling eyes of everyone, Fang Qiu said one sentence that none of them had ever thought of .
“You’re too old to get a promotion . ”
“Too old?”
All the people under the arena and Elder Yi were dumbfounded .
“Is age also a threshold for kung fu cultivation?”
They all knew that, but they didn’t pay too much attention subconsciously . After all, most of the martial arts practitioner started cultivation from a young age . Who would think of the old age?
However .
As Fang Qiu reminded them, they all paid attention to the influence of age slightly .
“Senior, please explain in detail . ”
Elder Yi said at once .
“As people get older, their physical function will gradually decline . But it’s not a big deal for martial arts practitioners . After all, as long as they keep cultivating, their physical function will be maintained at a certain extent, which will not affect their cultivation excessively . ”
Said Fang Qiu . Then he added . “But it is a little different to you . ”
Elder Yi didn’t understand .
“Why am I just different?”
“When you were young, you must have fooled around a lot, which damaged your health a lot . Therefore, it is difficult to promote and break through now . ”
Said Fang Qiu .
At the sound of this .
Elder Yi immediately became embarrassed .
“You are right . When I was young, I was a little bit like that . ”
With a flush on Elder Yi’s face, he said with embarrassment . Then he hurriedly asked, “Senior, I’m wondering whether you have any method to help me pass this barrier?”
“This…”
Fang Qiu hesitated for a moment and then said . “I have a method, but I’ve never tried it . I don’t know if it works . ”
“It’s enough to have a method . ”
Elder Yi was overjoyed . He clenched his fist and saluted to Fang Qiu hurriedly, saying . “Senior, please give your advice . ”
“This is a Taoist way of keeping healthy and fit, not cultivation . ”
Fang Qiu said . “This method has a great effect on the sick, the aged and leaky bodies . It’s also called the life continuous method . ”
Elder Yi listened carefully .
The people under the arena also didn’t dare to interrupt him .
They held their breath attentively and listened to what method could let a person recover .
“This method emphasizes visualization . ”
“You have to visualize that there is sunlight or moonlight on the top of your head . You control it by Qi and it will go inside from the Baihui acupoint on the top center of your head, shining brightly in the brain center . Then it will go into the vertebra along the back of the brain and go down slowly . Wherever it goes, use your eyes and consciousness to connect with this light to cooperate with the operation . ”
“The light travels through the spine to the perineum, up to the lower belly . Then it splits in the lower belly, going to the left and right leg bones at the same time from the hip bone . ”
“After that, it goes to the shin bone and down to the arch of the foot . ”
“Then the light will go up from the arch of the foot alongside the shin bone, knee, leg bone . It will pass the perineum and combine in the lower belly . Then it will go up alongside the ren meridian, the navel, heart socket, larynx, philtrum, and eyebrow, going back to the Baihui acupoint on the top center of your head . Follow the circulation and visualize for more than nine times . ”
“After that, you will definitely be vigorous and your mind will be clear . ”
Speaking of this .
Fang Qiu paused for a while and looked at all of them, saying . “About the so-called using energy to tonify brain in Taoism, people all think the most important energy of life is in the lower belly . In fact, it is between the front and the back of the brain, which is called ‘diencephalon’ . ”
“If the middle-aged people practice this method, they can be full of Yang Qi in six or seven days with the power enriched . ” “If elder people practice this method, it will take longer time . So do sick people . ”
“Besides, you still need to pay some attention when practicing it . ”
Looking at Elder Yi, Fang Qiu said . “This method could stick to individual consciousness easily . After you have some foundation of the practice, the physical changes may lead to some mental state . ”
“At that time, if your mind changes as the realm and if you think at random or being a smart-ass, it will be easy to get into a wrong way . ”
“Watch out to dissolve the desires attached . ”
“If you are not feeling well, you may be practicing incorrectly, so you should stop practicing immediately . ”
“Pay attention to a daylong stream of mini meals during the practicing period . It’s better to eat vegetables . ”
“Sick people should not practice this method . They could only practice after recovery . ”
