Pushing martial arts horizontally: starting from depriving the mantis shrimp of its talent

Chapter 24 Shortcuts
"Blood refining is the process of increasing the quality of Qi and blood."

"Practice of Gravel Fist is to strengthen your arms and push them beyond their limits. Then the stronger arms will secrete higher quality of Qi and blood, which can subtly improve other parts of the body. Point by point, the whole body will be fully strengthened." Take it to the next level.”

For the main part, the strength of other parts of the body will lag behind by one level.

In other words, when the strength of the arms reaches stone skin and the other parts of the body reach cowhide, a qualitative change will occur, and the total volume and strength of Qi and blood will increase sharply in a short period of time.

At that time, when the body and Qi and blood have all reached the first level of blood refining, you will be a true first level blood refining warrior, also called a first blood warrior.

"In other words, if you train one part alone, the improvement of other parts depends on a little bit of high-quality Qi and blood, which can be improved through water grinding."

"Such a speed is definitely very slow, but if other parts of the body learn another martial art and turn passive into active, the time can be greatly shortened."

"So, my black hand also meets the requirements."

Chen Cheng thought of himself.

And he found that he still had a big advantage.

"The power of the black hand is twice that of an ordinary arm. In terms of strength, the black hand is comparable to the gravel fist and stone skin realm, which is the first blood level."

"It stands to reason that the strength and quality of Qi and blood produced by black hands are higher than those of both arms."

Chen Cheng's heart moved, and the black hand under his right armpit stretched out.

Normally, he keeps his black hands away and only stretches them out when practicing martial arts and making sneak attacks.

This leads to the fact that Black Hand is in a dormant state most of the time, so it is naturally impossible to produce Qi and blood.

Chen Cheng punched the stone once, and after moving his body, the black hand began to absorb the nutrients transported in the blood, and wisps of crimson blood were produced from the black hand.

Chen Cheng collected the qi and blood produced by the black hand and found that the power of this qi and blood could be transported 1.5 times that of ordinary qi and blood.

"If master hadn't told me about blood refining, I would have wasted Black Hand's ability."

Chen Cheng transferred the first-level energy and blood to his arms, and struck the Iron Man again. With the use of the Three Flowers and Five Insects Cream, he could clearly feel that the already rapid improvement of the Gravel Fist had increased by another level.

It's like a car with a welded steering wheel and a dead pedal. It fills up with gasoline and keeps racing.

"So fast! This improvement speed is at least three times that of using Sanhua Wu Chong Cream alone!"

Chen Cheng didn't stop for a moment. After practicing, he applied Sanhua Wu Chong ointment on his arms and waited for recovery time before letting Black Hand practice.

His plan is simple. Black Hand was created because of the Mantis Shrimp Talisman. No one is more suitable for practicing gravel fist than Black Hand.

Now Black Hand is only at the Jin level, and his strength is comparable to first blood. If Black Hand's martial arts level is raised to first blood, then his energy and blood will be comparable to second blood.

He can then greatly shorten the time by using the energy and blood generated by the black hand and the gravel fist to lift his arms.

Instead of using the high-quality energy and blood produced by the black hands to slowly increase the strength of other parts of the body, it would be better to use all of it to enhance the arms.

When the time comes, both arms and black hands will produce more high-quality Qi and blood, and the body's strength will increase faster.

Having found a shortcut to improve his martial arts progress, Chen Chengcheng rarely goes to the boxing gym anymore. He only occasionally goes back to get Sanhua Wu Chong Ointment, Zhuangjin Powder and Black Stripe Tai Sui Pork.

He spent most of his time practicing the gravel fist, and occasionally took Zhuangjin Powder and practiced the Thunder Breaking Style.

The Thunder Breaking Style is just the ultimate move of the Stone Fist, not a separate martial art, so it only has three levels.

After Chen Cheng used Zhuangjin Powder and practiced the orthodox Thunder Breaking Style, he had a more systematic way of accumulating energy, and the intensity of energy accumulation reached six times.

The limit of the first level of Thunder Breaking Style is six times.

Second floor, nine times!
Three layers, twelve times!
Each level of the Thunder Breaking Style matches the level of the Stone Fist. Only by entering the level of strength can you practice the first level, the second level of first blood, and the third level of second blood.If the level is not enough, the strength of the muscles is limited, and forcing a greater force to explode will only lead to muscle tears.

Chen Cheng tried to let Black Hand practice, but the effect was almost useless. Black Hand's power-charging muscles were already in the most perfect form in theory. The power-charging multiples had been locked, and the total amount of power-charging was now only related to muscle strength.

Because of various bonuses, while Chen Cheng's Gravel Fist has made rapid progress, the demand for Sanhua Wu Chong Ointment has also increased.

With one more black hand, he would need half as much Sanhua Wu Chong paste.

As a direct disciple, although his training needs are all covered by the boxing gym, they are still limited.

After entering the energy, the strength of the arms increases, and the recovery effect of Sanhua Wu Chong ointment is also stronger. You can practice it once a day, which is [-] times a month.

As a direct descendant, these thirty doses of Three Flowers and Five Insects Ointment are free. If you want to get more, you have to spend the same money as the inner disciples.

This is also to prevent direct disciples from reselling.

Chen Cheng can get 100 taels from the Huang family and 100 taels from his direct disciples every month, for a total of 200 taels of silver.

He only took out 75 taels and bought fifteen copies for black hand training.

Because his recovery speed is very fast, after a portion of Sanhua Wu Chong ointment is consumed, there is still a lot of time left in the day.

In the absence of three flowers and five insects, he could only spend his time on other martial arts.

Compared to the Stone Fist, which requires more muscle training, the Breaking Claw, which only trains ten fingers, progresses faster.

With the addition of the talent of "Being at ease with the situation", the absorption efficiency of metal by his fingers has greatly increased, and his ten fingers are getting darker day by day, like coal diggers.

"It will be fine if you practice to the second level."

Chen Cheng comforted himself. When the Breaking Claw was on the first level, his fingers would gradually turn black as it continued to absorb metal, but this situation would improve after breaking through the second level.

Chen Cheng was overjoyed to see the bonus of [Being at peace with the situation] talent to martial arts training.

"This is the correct way to use the talent. The second heart before was completely because I didn't understand the mechanism of how the talent works, so it happened unexpectedly."

Fifteen days later, Chen Cheng stood in front of an iron pot on the fire, stretched out his hand and inserted his dark fingers into the hot metal sand.

As the fingers rub against the hot metal sand, the skin on the fingers is constantly wearing and absorbing metal elements, making them appear darker and shiny, like metal.

"It's about to break through!"

Feeling the fingers that were particularly active today, Chen Cheng thought to himself.

Apart from being extremely painful to practice, this Blade Breaking Claw can be practiced at an extremely fast speed due to the ten fingers being practiced individually, which is a side sect in martial arts.

hum!
Suddenly, under the constant friction, Chen Cheng felt as if his entire fingers were on fire, and he began to frantically absorb the surrounding metal elements.

The cells of the ten fingers turn the absorbed metal elements into nutrients for growth and division, producing new cells that are harder and stronger.

Kaka!

As the hot metal elements were absorbed, Chen Cheng could clearly feel that the density of his fingers was getting higher and heavier.

The suction force becomes smaller and smaller, and the hot fingers gradually cool down as the amount of metal elements inhaled decreases.

Looking at the pure black fingers shining with metallic light, Chen Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.

When the temperature drops, these colors will disappear and return to normal flesh color, but the change occurs suddenly.
