Ancient Strengthening Techniques
Starmoon Hall, Stone Monument Style Beast Form Fist
” Elder Fei said that/that there is a big contradiction in the Heavenly Palace? ” Qing Shui asked, feeling it was unbelievable.
” In fact, there is always a big contradiction in any sect. The larger the sect, the greater the contradiction. While the nine halls of the Heavenly Palace would appear to be united to an external party, but the internal competition was fierce as well. However, this is perfectly normal, and only when there is competition will there be development. ” Fei Wuji chuckled, but said nothing about the crux of the matter.
Qing Shui knew that/it didn't need to investigate any further. Walking along a stone staircase similar to ” Misty Hall’s ”, they headed, and a purple hall slightly smaller than Lingxiao Treasure Hall appeared gracefully before Qing Shui.
The three words ’Starmoon Hall’ inscribed on the signboard were written by the same person who wrote the four big words of burning gold for Lingxiao Treasure Hall. The paths around him were filled with black-colored stone pillars that would bring two people to cuddle around them.
Qing Shui saw that/it was the color of everyone's clothes was not the same, but all of them were Starmoon Robes. When they saw Fei Wuji, they would come closer, and those closer would greet and call him Elder Fei!
There was a large field near Starmoon Hall, where people gathered to conduct their training. It was also where they would study, discuss, and conduct sparring sessions for their martial arts.
There were many arenas laid out in the square, and although they were not very large, there were many of them. Qing Shui saw that/it had people who had spars in each, surrounded by many people cheering the participants on. It was crowded with noise and excitement.
” Elder Fei, erm, Martial Uncle, are they fighting? ” Qing Shui asked, looking towards the arena and towards the people in the square who were practicing.
’That's true, but this is just a regular debate. The Heavenly Palace emphasized combat experience, so their training was to continue fighting and competing. ” Elder Fei laughed and smiled.
Qing Shui thought about it, and felt that/that although this method was not new, not many sects would use it. That was because continuing to fight would result in a large number of injuries and deaths. The price to pay for an amazing experience.
Fighting as a daily job is important. In his previous life, Qing Shui already knew that/it even after learning martial arts for three years, one might not be able to defeat a gangster who had been fighting on the streets for three years.
It was this extremely precious battle experience, especially the battle with life and death that allowed one to experience great improvements and even allowed one to break through their limits, reach new limits, and be reborn.
” Martial Uncle, are all the Heavenly Palace disciples training like this? ” When Qing Shui was in Lingxiao Treasure Hall, he had seen for himself that/it had many arenas laid out, but he did not pay much attention to the situation.
’’ Mmm, basically, yes. However, those with greater talent like Elders and Palace Lord direct disciples would use this method less often. ’’ Fei Wuji said as he continued walking.
Qing Shui was not stupid but knew the reason. For example, a 1st class Xiantian, or a 2, 3, 4. no matter how much battle experience one had, he would not be able to defeat a Martial King cultivator. And another thing they fear is ‘’kakasan’.
There were rows of buildings not far from the grounds, and most of them were two-storied. Many Starmoon Hall disciples would enter and exit. It was the place where the disciples of the Heavenly Palace lived.
Under Fei Wuji's lead, Qing Shui was taken to the registrar to complete his registration. He was now officially a disciple of the Heavenly Palace, and allocated five sets of clothes, one weapon, and one key!
’’ Qing Shui, the key number is where you live. The place to practice will be in the square. For two hours every morning and two hours in the afternoon, there would be elders to teach martial arts. Oh, and if you are interested in the martial arts of the stone monument behind the mountain, you can go see. How much you can understand depends on yourself. ’’ Fei Wuji said indifferently.
’’ Mmm, Martial Uncle, you can do your job, I will check it myself! ’
’’ Mmm, come to Martial Pamantfour for dinner tonight! ’’ Fei Wuji grinned and said.
” Mmm, I'll leave early. ” Qing Shui smiled, knowing that/it was this because he had already made lunch before.
Qing Shui looked at the key label. What it says is block 1000, floor 2, room 100!
Qing Shui picked up the keys, clothes, and weapons that did not look bad as he left. The weapon was not comparable to the one he had forged. This sword was a representation of his identity, symbolizing one's status as a disciple of the Heavenly Palace. Of course, if one could become a Protector, the weapons to be allocated would be quite good, and even the clothes would be made from the best quality Ice Silk!
Qing Shui headed towards the row of buildings that all had two floors. Qing Shui saw that/it figures were marking the building. Each row is one block, and he's headed for the deepest area.
This is a very large residential area. The place where the disciples of Starmoon Hall rested. Qing Shui did a rough estimation that/that if there were 1 person for each room, with there being two floors, each block would hold 200 people!
That meant that/it Starmoon Hall would at least have 200,000 disciples. And this was just a normal number of disciples. With nine halls in the Heavenly Palace, it meant that/it had at least 1 million Xiantian experts …
After all, there was an immeasurable population in this world. A city alone would have tens or hundreds of millions of people, and each country had 81 cities, each continent had 81 countries. It was already difficult to calculate how many people were on each continent. Since the numbers are too many and too difficult to count, it is best to leave them alone.
Each row of buildings is at least 10 meters tall, and 1000 rows will be 10,000 meters tall. It was fortunate that when Qing Shui seemed to be walking leisurely, his speed was quite fast. It only took fifteen minutes to travel 10,000 meters.
Different terrain height. Qing Shui saw building ” 1000 ”. All the buildings here were all independent, so Qing Shui directly searched for the 100 rooms, which were inside.
While it was 2 floors high, there was an independent staircase to the 2nd floor. The buildings here are all made of mountain rocks. Heavenly Palace Mountain is filled with spiritual energy, and even such ‘ Heavenly Palace’ rocks ‘ are good materials for construction.
Stepping onto the 2nd floor, Qing Shui opened the door to find out that/it was a very spacious place and enough for the whole family. Qing Shui recalled seeing some women who did not look like Heavenly Palace disciples on the way here. Some of these hold children in their arms or, hold their hands and go for a walk. They were actually family members of the disciples. However, the Heavenly Palace encouraged male disciples to marry female disciples. Not only was genetics good, but the children they were born with would also have a strong sense of ownership towards the Heavenly Palace.
He walked into the living room which covered 100 square meters. There are three bedrooms, two kitchens, two toilets and a balcony! Qing Shui looked and saw that/it was all new furniture and fixtures.
After taking a casual look, Qing Shui finished. Misty Hall was the only one in the nine halls with only women. There were men and women in the other 8 halls, and the female disciple of Lingxiao Treasure Hall was even more than the male disciple, the most powerful of them all was a woman as well. Even the other hall disciples would address him as the Elders Martial Sister, and his status in the Heavenly Palace was second only to the Elders. It was because he was also a Heavenly Palace Protector, and a direct disciple of the Lingxiao Treasure Hall Palace straight away!
Qing Shui recalled Fei Wuji's earlier words that/it had a stone monument martial art behind the mountain. Since Fei Wuji had said it, the martial arts there would definitely be beneficial. Therefore, Qing Shui planned to use the rest of his time to inspect the place.
The back of the mountain was not too far away. Qing Shui followed a very wide path, and managed to find it after asking two people for directions. It was an area that looked like a stone quarry.
A large monument stands there, at a height of 5 meters and a width of 3 meters. There were about 1000 people around. As if there was always someone there. In every stone monument, there were some people, some left, some headed, some with joy, some with disappointment, some holding hope.
Qing Shui didn't expect that there would be many people. How could such an open martial art be a high quality one?
Qing Shui knew that/that ordinary disciple would not be able to learn the Heavenly Thunder and Divine Protection because the Heavenly Palace arranged that/it was it was inaccessible to disciples who were below the Martial King level. Qing Shui felt that/it Heavenly Palace was trying to hide good things, only passing through such martial arts to direct the disciples and important members of each hall.
Qing Shui walked to a small street made of pebbles and stones. Each of these paths will pass through a stone monument, connecting like a giant spider web.
When Qing Shui saw the first picture, he was shocked. It's a deer. On the stone monument, there was a huge deer running and jumping! The detailed writing gave a very grand feeling. Qing Shui felt that his/her carving skills were the same as the painting skills of the person doing the beauty portraits. They both reached the peak of perfection. It was too bad that/it was not a single word carved on the stone monument.
When Qing Shui, who had reached the stage of great perfection, first saw him, he immediately felt the true essence behind this engraving. Their four limbs are agile and the rhythm runs harmoniously, and even the flow of vital energy and blood as well as posture.
At that moment, Qing Shui noticed that/it was the Cantering Deer that he was facing his slow development was suddenly brought to a higher altitude. He had long sensed that/that stage of great perfection was the end, and to Qing Shui it was as if he had just opened a new door.
His Qi from the Ancient Strengthening Technique circulated automatically, and was now circulating according to the Deer Cantering technique in his Dantian. Gradually, Qing Shui followed the style on the stone monument and practiced. It was a feeling, to mimic an expression. Qing Shui knew that/it Beast Form Fist like that required one to roughly imitate the form and the most important stage was to imitate the spirit.
To imitate the spirit, it must first imitate its form. Only after comprehending the shape of the Fist Beast Form would one be able to gradually be led into his spirit, such as reaching the stage of true essence.
Qing Shui sensed that/it Deer Cantering had entered a mystical stage. It was a very strange feeling, like a strong man was looking at a young boy. Qing Shui knew that/it was an increase, an increase in its limit.
At that moment, Qing Shui knew that his/her speed had increased by another 20. He had no idea what was after the great stage of perfection. The ultimate stage of perfection?
Qing Shui then continued on to the second picture. It's still a deer. It's a jumping deer, a deer that's on a cliff. It gave the feeling that/it was not jumping off a cliff to die but trying to jump past it.
A momentary burst of energy explosion from the moment the deer jumped was clearly presented on the image. Qing Shui was overjoyed. With the Nine Beasts Mimicry Technique, and with this Cantering Deer that had surpassed the stage of great perfection, he now realized that/it had all fallen into place, he said, and he was taken to a higher altitude.
’’Only deer pictures? What martial art is this? Learn to run like a deer? Learn to jump like a deer? ” A young man who saw the shape of a moose muttered.
When Qing Shui saw that shocked and disparaging expression, he really wanted to say, that's right, the idea is to have you learn to run like a deer, jump like a deer!
