Ancient Strengthening Techniques
Heavenly Thunder Slash, Strong Power One at the Peak of Martial Kings
It was only today that/it Qing Shui discovered that his/her Qi circulation techniques could be very violent, similar to violent storms. If it was only himself, it would be difficult to understand this.
Even if one were to lay their hands on the Heavenly Thunder Slash manual, without someone to provide guidance, it would be very easy for practitioners to injure his meridian channels. This was a Qi circulation technique, and it could be used with direct combat or with weapons, but the prerequisites for a Heavenly Thunderbolt practitioner were extremely high.
Understanding!
This is something very important. If one's comprehension level was extremely weak, he would be doomed to not cross paths with a high-level martial technique. Even if they were to lay their hands on them, if one's comprehension was too weak, even if they had to go through ten years of hard training, it would be too weak, it would not be comparable to a one day one training with a high level of understanding. . This is the importance of understanding!
Just by the criteria of understanding alone, it would cut eight to ninety percent of people. Those who had a high cultivation level or were known as geniuses were those who had a high level of comprehension.
Preservation!
This is a condition as important as understanding. With preservation, there is nothing that cannot be done. This saying shows the importance of perseverance. Even an absolute genius would not be able to accomplish anything without perseverance. Perseverance is to set a target, and remain persistent while working towards it, facing obstacles and difficulties with courage.
Perseverance is the hardest!
Understanding and perseverance, as well as being born with profit, and adding it to the hard work in life is important for a practitioner. Qing Shui had neither talent nor perseverance. If he did, there would be no way for him to reach the Clear Realm with his Basic Sword Technique.
The Heavenly Thunder Slash Spell was not too long. Instead, it was very short. However, it's hard to understand. Time passes gradually during efforts, questions, explanations, demonstrations and circulation. After the circulation period, he would seek guidance from Cang Wuya.
The sun was gradually moving westward, and that was when Qing Shui was able to circulate it slightly, but he had yet to reach the level of Qi explosion.
Canghai Mingyue and Huoyun Liu-Li had also understood a little, especially Huoyun Liu-Li, who was very happy when she started to get her point. It was probably because Qing Shui and Canghai Mingyue had studied it, and now she had learned it as well.
By the time they finished one more round of Heavenly Thunder training, Cang Wuya had already finished cooking, and the three of them left after dinner with him.
On the way back, Qing Shui felt extremely agitated!
It felt as if he had discovered that/it was a girl who was secretly in love with him, a sweet and beautiful feeling.
” I have finally learned Heavenly Thunder! ” Qing Shui thinks for himself happily.
Qing Shui recalled how surprised he was on the day he first saw Canghai use the Heavenly Thunder Thunder, and from then on, he yearned for the day when he could learn it as well. Having a thirty percent increase for his attacks was still quite frightening.
Today finally came. When he reached his room, Qing Shui directly entered the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal!
The Heavenly Thunder Cliff!
Back then, Qing Shui seemed like he had only picked up a little skill, but in the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal, he had not tried to hide anything. Instead, he increased his aura. A series of hoarse roaring sounds came ringing from the bones in his body.
He started to gradually circulate the Heavenly Thunderclap, and then gradually incorporated it into his Taichi. That was because the slow speed at the beginning was very compatible with Taichi.
Single Whip!
Incorporated with the Heavenly Thunder Slash, Taichi's Single Whip became strange, but Qing Shui didn't stop. He continued to perform the Taichi Single Whip under the circulation of the Heavenly Thunder Slash.
One day passed!
Between the two, Qing Shui had also practiced the Ancient Strengthening Technique several times, but still remained on the verge of breaking through the 97th cycle, and was at the stage of accumulating experience.
The beginner stage is actually the most crucial, just like the foundation of a building. The reason why Qing Shui practiced the [[Basic Sword Technique]] as he did was because it was the foundation of sword arts.
For each martial technique, Qing Shui would place additional emphasis on the beginner stage, doing his best to learn it fully. Like how it was now for the Heavenly Thunderbolt, from the beginner stage to the familiar one, Qing Shui had put in a lot of effort and patience.
This time in the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal, in addition to spending some time on alchemy, and tempering the Soulshake bells, he spent quite a bit of time on his sword technique and the Thousand Hammer Technique.
For the rest of the time, Qing Shui had spent time cultivating the Heavenly Thunder Slash. This time, Qing Shui once again showed his inhuman perseverance, spending half a month completely on it.
The effect is still quite astonishing. However, Qing Shui discovered the difficulty of the Heavenly Thunder Thunder. It was because after half a month and a half, Qing Shui barely managed to reach the familiar stage.
After reaching the familiar stage, Qing Shui once again inserted the Heavenly Thunder Thunder into his Taichi, although he could not create an explosion of Qi, but he could not create a burst of Qi, nor did it possess powers similar to the two dragons that Canghai had once displayed.
Today after breakfast, he was still heading towards Cang Wuya's place. Qing Shui had practiced the Heavenly Thunder Thunder in the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal, gaining more familiarity with it the more he trained. However, he had also encountered more problems and wanted to seek guidance from Cang Wuya.
Time passed by very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, two days had passed. Qing Shui trained at Cang Wuya on that day, and would return to the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal to undergo a difficult training at night.
Two days of time in the actual world was around a month in the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal. During this time, Qing Shui finally cultivated the Heavenly Thunder Thunder to the familiar stage.
Now when he inserted the Heavenly Thunder Slash into his Taichi, it no longer looked strange. Instead, it produced a great wave of force from its originally gentle rhythm.
The power of Hidden Waves!
’’ Qing Shui, this is too much of a blow. To think that/that in less than three days, you have reached such a level of familiarity, ” Huoyun Liu-Li said flirtatiously and pouted on her lips.
Canghai Mingyue also looked at Qing Shui calmly. After all, Qing Shui's way seemed too outrageous, but he was still very happy. Against his own feelings, he also felt a little anxious.
Ever since he agreed to the Grandmaster's ambiguous condition, he felt closer to Qing Shui. While they were close before, there were more among them now.
Over the past two days, Cang Wuya had seen Qing Shui's terrifying progress and was even stunned for a moment. This was the existence of the demon and the most talented person he had seen for the past three hundred years.
It was a pity that/that she did not know that/that Qing Shui had the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal. If he knew, no one would know if he would think the same. It was a pity that/it was Cang Wuya just thinking about this in his heart, and Qing Shui could only subconsciously accept the compliment.
At night!
Within the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal, the Qi of the Ancient Strengthening Technique was fully focused on circulating the Ancient Strengthening Technique, one cycle after another. Qing Shui could feel the strong power of the Ancient Qi Strengthening Technique in his meridians.
That dense feeling was like a milling plant, or even better, pushing a mountain. It was extremely dense and unobstructed.After ninety-six cycles, he successfully entered the 97th cycle.
Pa!
The loud voice was like a heavenly melody to Qing Shui.
Qing Shui was very satisfied with that moment of progress. For a knight, there was nothing happier than when it came to progress in his abilities.
Now, Qing Shui felt that his/her strength was around four hundred thousand jin. The strength from reaching the stage of great perfection for Tiger Form and the stage of great success for his Bear Shape seemed to be quite a lot, but it was not too much. The rise from the Small Revitalizing Pellet was also quite good.
Qing Shui thought that/that if he could break through to reach the peak of the 99th cycle, his strength would probably be at least five hundred thousand jin. If he were to add on the set of battle armor he forged, with a thirty percent increase from the Heavenly Thunder Slash in attack, and then complete the Heaven Shaking Hammer to obtain a twenty percent increase in strength …
It would be a power that was close to eight hundred thousand jin!
Qing Shui was surprised by his own conclusion. Normally, a grade-1 Martial King would have strength ranging from three hundred thousand jin. What was it like to have the power of eight hundred thousand jin …
When a practitioner increases by one level, his strength will become one fold stronger. Take the Martial King for example. Starting from grade 1, a grade-1 Martial King practitioner would have the strength of three hundred and fifty thousand jin, a grade-2 Martial King would have seven hundred thousand jin of strength, he said, a Martial King of 3rd class would have one million and fifty thousand jin of strength, a Cla.s.s 4 Martial King would have one million four hundred thousand jin of strength … and a Cla.s.s 10 Martial King would have three million five hundred thousand jin of strength …
The strength of a tier 10 Martial King realm would remain a basic strength only. If there were precious medicinal pills or equipment added, considering that someone at that level was likely to be equipped with good weapons and armor that and had also taken quite a number of medicinal pills, it was likely that someone at that level would be well equipped with good weapons and armor, that person's strength would be extremely humiliating.
Back when they found the blind old man who was a 7th class Martial King, just a brush nearly cost him his life. And that was when his physique had been forged by the Ancient Strengthening Technique became quite powerful.
That power is too terrifying. The power he had in mind was in a condition when not many precious medicinal pills had been taken. Qing Shui remembered that/it was no Martial Saint in the Greencloud Continent, but there were many of them who were at the peak of the Martial King level. Qing Shui guessed that/it each of them would have an increase in their strength by one fold or more.
Their strength reached at least seven million jin …
What are seven million jin like? Qing Shui was in a daze. Perhaps a small mountain would be flattened with just a punch. That power is too terrifying. It was the prowess of someone at the peak of the Martial King level.
At that moment, Qing Shui thought more about the prowess of the medicinal pills, armor and weapons. To lay their hands on divine weapons, people would struggle until they broke their heads, or even went bankrupt.
In the world of the nine continents, strength was everything.
Alchemy, Ancient Forging Art .. Qing Shui realized that/that he was too compassionate. If he managed to concoct the Great Revitalizing Pellet and the Beauty Pellet, these two types of medicinal pills would be able to increase Qing Shui's strength by fifty percent.
Too bad it was something so close but so far. That gloomy feeling made one feel extremely helpless!
Suddenly, he saw that/it was the Golden Soul Ointment he had been concocting for several days already piling up. He bottled it in a porcelain bottle, and realized that/it was actually about a thousand jin from the Golden Sore Ointment.
The next day, Qing Shui gave them gifts for Cang Wuya, Fei Wuji, Canghai Mingyue and Huoyun Liu-Li each with about fifty jin. This remedy is very effective for external wounds, and is very mysterious. It was targeted for external injuries!
Qing Shui gave some to the two women, and asked them to keep some for themselves, but they could give the rest to others to get help!
In fact, even prominent clans and families would need such a medicine as there would be members who were injured endlessly every day.
The next day, Fei Wuji approached Qing Shui and asked, ” Qing Shui, do you still have this much? How many do you have? Starmoon Hall can buy everything from you. ’
’’ Martial Uncle, I don't have many of them, and only have around fifty jin each month, but they are quite expensive. They need a small amount of thousand-year-old medicinal herbs, and this has been my accumulated inventory for several years now, ’’ Qing Shui replied and smiled. The Heavenly Palace was the main sect, and Starmoon Hall should have quite a number of medicinal herbs.
” How about this: You list all the medicinal herbs you need, and whenever you are free, you can give us some. As for the payment, you can decide. What do you think? ” Fei Wuji offer and have a small laugh.
’’ I will not require any payment, but I will still provide fifty jin each month in return for the experience I have accumulated for alchemy, ’’ Qing Shui replied, not a little blushing.
After insisting a few times, Fei Wuji let Qing Shui have his way. Qing Shui wrote the names of some medicinal herbs and even listed some of them as necessary for the Five Dragon Pellets and the Great Revitalizing Pellet.
Even if they didn't have it, Qing Shui would be able to come up with some excuses. After all, the impression he gave them was quite demonic. What with mysterious fruit, seasoning …
Qing Shui did not write the Fruit of Beauty because Old Master Cang also knew about it. After all, the old man was still considered an alchemist. Qing Shui now knew that/it Old Master was just a half-baked alchemist and only tried it out of interest.
’’ Qing Shui, I still have two recipes here, and I also have medicinal herbs. Too bad this old man has not been able to assemble it successfully. This recipe is considered quite good, so I'll let you have it! ’
