Chapter 56 Barrier between Heaven and Man
"Come on, try its weight. Be careful because it's quite heavy." Hong Shisan held the iron ball in one hand and handed it to his disciple.

"..."

Su Chen stretched out his right hand to catch the iron ball. The muscles in his arm suddenly bulged under the heavy pressure, and he had to use seven or eight points of strength to hold it.

He thought, it weighed at least fifty kilograms!
"This is the smallest model." Seeing the disciple's reaction, Hong Shisan said with a smile:

"There's a big ball filled with lead and mercury waiting for you behind. That thing is several times heavier than this one."

As he spoke, he took the shot put back from Su Chen's hand, then flicked his wrist and turned his fingers to the right, causing the iron ball to "buzz" in circles in his palm.

"We use it to shock the bone marrow and also use it to understand the Taoist elixir-forming technique."

Hong Shisan then used his arm strength to bounce the iron ball into the air, then held it with the index finger of his right hand and continued to rotate.

"If the Taoist inner alchemy technique is integrated into the boxing technique, the blood is exchanged and the marrow is washed, and impurities are discharged from the whole body, the purest "blood essence" remaining can create a long-lived true body."

Then, Hong Shisan flicked his hand and the iron ball continued to jump. When it fell, he caught the iron ball firmly with his chest.

Then shake your shoulders, sway your body, and let the iron ball travel along your chest, shoulders, and all the way down to your crotch. At this time, you catch it with your toes, then jump high into the air, and catch the iron ball with your back.

The iron ball seemed to be stuck to Hong Shisan's body, moving around him with the movements of his body, making thunderous sounds all the way.

If Su Chen had not touched an iron ball before, he would almost think that the opponent was playing with a hollow leather ball.

Hong Shisan said with a steady breath while rotating the iron ball on his body:

"The so-called practice of martial arts without practicing kung fu will lead to nothing in the end."

"Practing martial arts is to learn killing skills, and practicing martial arts is to preserve one's life."

"In the Yanfeng cultural circle, when it comes to dual cultivation of life and life, Taoist inner alchemy is at the forefront. Therefore, when most martial artists reach the limit of the human body, they must combine their kung fu with Taoist alchemy."

“Integrate internal and external affairs, penetrate the heavens and the earth, and break the barriers between heaven and man.”

"Our Xuanjia Wuxiang Sect is no exception."

"This mercury-filled iron ball imitates the true meaning of Taoist golden elixir."

Having said this, he took a deep breath, threw the iron ball into the air with all his strength, and then caught it steadily with one hand.

"Domestic martial artists first change the muscles and bones, cut the meridians and open the meridians, then exchange blood and cleanse the marrow, reborn, and finally reach the peak of the human body's ultimate strength."

"This is the opportunity to break the barrier between heaven and man and become transcendent."

"But I don't know how many amazing and talented masters are stuck at this step."

"My master's skills have been stagnant for more than twenty years, and I have never made any progress."

"In order to break through the barrier between heaven and man, most martial artists must complete the final step by realizing the true meaning of the Golden Elixir and pursuing the Golden Elixir Avenue."

"Only the best can fully understand the true meaning of the golden elixir. The power is connected internally and externally. Blood is refined like mercury, marrow is refined like frost. Bone marrow produces blood endlessly, and blood is like lead and mercury."

"Let the essence, energy and spirit be indistinguishable from each other, round and bright, turning from false to true, achieving the body of heaven and man."

After hearing what the other party said, Su Chen asked in surprise:
"In other words, forming pills is just a way to break the barrier between heaven and man. Are there other ways to break the barrier between heaven and man?"

"Yes." Hong Shisan first agreed with his conjecture, and then explained:

"As far as I know, among the knight combat skills in foreign martial arts circles, there is a profound and profound art of deification, which can also break the barrier between heaven and man and achieve a long-lived true body."

"That's it." Su Chen suddenly realized, and then felt that it should be like this.

The world is so big and there are so many martial arts. There should not be only one avenue to the sky. It is the norm for a hundred flowers to bloom and a hundred schools of thought to contend.

"How does this knight's combat skill compare to our kung fu?" he asked curiously.

"Similar but not the same." Hong Shisan raised his head and said in thought: "In terms of moves, they are all about charging into battle. In this regard, the two sides are very similar. But because of the different cores, even if the same move is used with knight combat skills, It just looks different from our style.”

"Can we learn the art of deification?" Su Chen asked again.

"Of course we can't learn." Hong Shisan shook his head decisively:

"The art of deification is the core of knight's combat skills. The core of our sect is Taoist Qi training."

After saying this, he immediately put the iron ball into Su Chen's hand and stopped rambling:

"Breaking the barrier between heaven and man is not something you need to consider yet. You must first practice the tiger, leopard and thunder sound!"

With the help of Hong Shisan, he moved the iron ball in the same manner. Once he made a mistake in his movements, the former would immediately take action to ensure that the iron ball would not hurt anyone.

In the process, the boy rotated the iron ball over and over again, using the power of light and darkness to let the rolling thunder sound travel throughout his body.

Every 10 minutes, Hong Shisan would let him rest to prevent Su Chen from overdrafting and damaging his roots.

Even so, after practicing for two hours, he was still so exhausted that his bones and muscles were numb, and in the end he was almost dragged out by Hong Shisan.

The fifty kilogram thing was condensed to the size of a football. If Su Chen didn't have the black hammer armor to protect his body, he would have seen stars after just two presses on his chest.

……

After complete collapse, Su Chen collapsed in the lounge like mud, almost unable to move.

Hong Shisan fed him glucose and replenished electrolytes. He rested for more than half an hour before he finally recovered.

In a short period of time, Su Chen gave up the idea of ​​practicing secretly.

If Hong Shisan hadn't been watching from the side, he would have been knocked over several times by the iron ball. He couldn't waste his power like this.

At least you have to be so proficient that you won't be hurt by the iron ball, then there is no point in practicing secretly by yourself.

From that day on, Su Chen had another homework. In addition to daily boxing and stance training, he also had to go to the secret room to learn dribbling from Hong Shisan.

In this way, seven or eight hours a day will be spent on martial arts training.

The rest of the time he would either read e-books or go to the library to read paper books to increase his knowledge in order to unlock the next mask.

Such days were so fulfilling that Su Chen felt that time flew by, and a month passed like this.

What broke the calm was the news on the stone tablet in Jiuyou General Temple.

……

General Jiuyou's stone monument has been standing there for a long time. Su Chen would go and look at it from time to time, mostly for trivial matters.

Weird things happen from time to time, but at first glance it's not weird.

Until that day, when Su Chen mingled with pilgrims to visit General Jiuyou, he saw petition messages from several parents on the stone tablet.

They said their child drowned inexplicably.

The child was obviously very well-behaved and had never played in the river before, yet he drowned inexplicably in the school.

Calling the police can't find out why.

I hope General Jiuyou can help them find the murderer and give the child justice.

Seeing these messages, Su Chen immediately became interested. This kind of thing that cannot be solved by secular power seems to be caused by something weird.
