Chapter 68: Huang Shang on the Dao, the Three Treasures of Essence, Qi and Spirit (Please Read Later)

Inside the armory, Zhou Yi casually flipped through the martial arts secrets books on the shelf. Three days might seem like a long time, but in fact, facing these tens of thousands of secrets books, it was still a little short.

What he lacks now is not the skills, but the knowledge and accomplishment of martial arts.

Therefore, when he came to the armory this time, he had only two purposes at first. One was to enrich his martial arts skills, and the other was to see if there were any magical skills in this secret library that had never been passed down, which could serve as an aid to his practice.

But now, he has another purpose.

Huang Shang!

Through Huang Shang's introduction and the strength he showed himself, Zhou Yi felt that this person was much stronger than Zhuge Zhengwo!
But through questioning, it was found that Huang Shang did not practice martial arts, he was just watching.

The miraculous power he displayed was not a means of martial arts, but a means of spiritual cultivation.

Doesn’t it feel outrageous?

Zhou Yi said that it was indeed a bit outrageous. Why would such a good martial arts world be intruded by the means of spiritual practice?

But then I thought, the fucking Eternal Spring Skill has come out!

The method of longevity, rejuvenation, and the method of cultivating the soul and the spirit do not seem too outrageous...

The martial arts he was flipping through at the moment were martial arts that had never been circulated outside.

"Three Robbery Hands"

This martial art is similar to external martial arts like Iron Sand Palm, but it is completely different, the Three Tribulations Hand.

For the first level of fire calamity, one must purify the palm with bright fire, and use medicinal materials to repair the enemy from the outside to the inside. A wisp of fire energy is purified into the palm. The palm power is extremely hot. Although it cannot melt gold or stone, with one palm strike, the fire poison will instantly burn the enemy's internal organs from the inside out.

The second level of ice calamity, with the thousand-year-old ice palm, harmonized with the fire power in the body, slowly integrating a trace of cold power into the body, and then releasing the two powers of cold and fire, the two levels of ice and fire, tearing the flesh and blood, killing in an instant.

The third level has myriad poisons as its root, and it purifies myriad poisons and allows them to enter the body, with cold and fire poisons being the main ones. When one waves his hand, myriad poisons will follow, and the wind from his palm can melt human flesh and blood.

This martial art is a secret scroll of the Tang Clan in the early Tang Dynasty. If it were put into today's martial arts world, it would at least be comparable to the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.

But in this secret library, only first-class...

There are hundreds of secret books like this...

Only at this moment did Zhou Yi truly realize why the imperial court was so dismissive of people from the martial arts world.

If one really wants to train masters, with the right resources and skills, there will definitely be no shortage of talent. The so-called world of martial arts can be conquered in just 20 years!
For the entire morning, Zhou Yi was immersed in the secret book. Although he flipped through it quickly, what he wanted at the moment was not to practice, but to understand the core of it. How was each martial art created and what was the core?
This is what he needs to think about. Therefore, Zhou Yi is surrounded by a large number of artistic conceptions at all times, which are changing every moment.

Suddenly, a eunuch's voice came from outside the armory: "Master Zhou, lunch is here."

Just like that, Zhou Yifang opened his eyes, and it seemed that there were countless little people performing martial arts constantly, and finally one of them disappeared.

He put down the secret book, opened his arms, and stretched out his body.

All of a sudden, his muscles and bones began to crackle, and he exhaled a breath of depressed air, feeling much more relaxed.

Walking out of the armory, in the separate dining room nearby, seven or eight elderly people were eating. They did not talk while eating or sleeping. Apart from the sound of chopsticks picking up food, the other chewing sounds were very faint.

Zhou Yi saw Huang Shang and came up to her with food.

"Mr. Huang."

Huang Shang smiled and said, "Sit down. After watching for the whole morning, do you have any insights?"

"There are some, but it's so foggy that I can't see any light."

"Ha, interesting. Eat first, and then chat with me after you finish eating. How about that?"

"I can't ask for it."

The meal time went by very quickly. Zhou Yi ate with big mouthfuls, while Huang Shang and the other old men chewed slowly. Looking at Zhou Yi, they felt like a reckless man...

I can only say that this literati is really good at pretending!

Of course, eating like this does help with absorption, but it just looks uncomfortable...

A quarter of an hour after Zhou Yi finished his meal, Huang Shang put down his bowl and chopsticks, picked up a cup of tea to rinse his mouth, then stood up and walked out of the kitchen.

Outside, beside the stone table, the eunuch brought a pot of tea. Huang Shang looked at Zhou Yi and said with a smile, "You can talk about it."

Zhou Yi nodded: "Then I'll bother you, Mr. Huang. I read about ten martial arts books this morning."

"I can actually understand the purpose of martial arts and the so-called methods of practice. The only doubt is that although I understand and can practice, I always feel that there is a barrier between them." "I hope you can solve my doubts."

Upon hearing this, Huang Shang stroked his beard, and there was actually some admiration in his eyes for what Zhou Yi said.

"Master Zhou can think of this and speak frankly. In my opinion, 99% of the warriors in the world are not as good as Master Zhou!"

"It's fine to practice martial arts, Taoism, or Buddhism."

“There are always three things that can’t be separated from you.”

“Spirit!”

"Eighty percent of the martial arts in the arsenal are from decades, centuries, or even hundreds of years ago."

"I wonder if Lord Zhou has discovered the difference between the martial arts of the Song Dynasty, the martial arts of the Tang Dynasty, the martial arts of the Sui Dynasty, and the martial arts of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms?"

Hearing this, Zhou Yi frowned. He really hadn't paid attention to this aspect, but when he thought about it carefully.

There is a huge difference indeed!

"According to what Mr. Huang said, there are indeed differences. From the perspective of martial arts, it is indeed becoming more prosperous and more complex. For the same series of martial arts, the power described is much more complex in the Song Dynasty than in the Tang Dynasty."

"It gets more complicated as you go up, but the power doesn't really differ that much. However, based on my current strength, the power of Song Dynasty martial arts far exceeds that of Tang Dynasty martial arts."

"Ha ha……"

Huang Shang chuckled, took a sip of tea, and looked at Zhou Yi with more admiration in his eyes.

"Yes, your understanding is extraordinary."

"The reason why martial arts is becoming more and more prosperous and complex is due to two reasons."

"First, the changes in the development of the human body."

"Second, the changes in heaven and earth."

"I will first talk about the changes in heaven and earth."

Huang Shang said jokingly, "Lord Zhou, do you think the ancient rumors about the Qigong masters of the pre-Qin period and the three immortals of the Eastern Han Dynasty are true?"

Zhou Yi was stunned, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came to his mind and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

"What Mr. Huang means is that with the changes in the world, the spiritual energy has declined. Therefore, although the martial arts have the same power, the spiritual energy of the world is different, which makes the martial arts more complicated?"

"Not bad!"

"The so-called spiritual power of heaven and earth, according to my understanding, heaven and earth may also have a lifespan. As the Taoists say, the endless universe, heaven and earth, and all things have reincarnation changes."

"The world we live in is the same. Cultivation, whether it is Taoism, Buddhism or martial arts, is actually stealing the spiritual power of heaven and earth."

"Hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years ago, humans struggled with nature, struggled with heaven and earth, and understood the truth, so they could practice..."

"The decline of spiritual power has led to the decline of Taoism and Buddhism, and the prosperity of martial arts. However, it has further declined, and the power of martial arts has become weaker and weaker. How could the ancient sages not discover such a problem?"

"Therefore, the development of the human body has become more and more sophisticated, with the meridians, tendons, bones, etc. being developed bit by bit. You have also seen that in the past martial arts practice, there were not so many meridian changes. Now there are eight extraordinary meridians, twelve main meridians, thirty-six side meridians, etc., with countless changes."

"In fact, it is the development of the human body's essence and energy, which can better absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth."

“This is essence.”

"As for Qi, the human body has Qi, the heaven and earth have Qi, and all things have Qi. Do you remember the Five Qis Returning to the Origin Gong that I mentioned?"

"Use the five internal energies to control the five external energies, and manifest the spirit and clarity."

“The human body is like a small universe, with spirits sitting in the acupoints, comparable to the universe. But if the Niwan is not opened, the spirits will be without a master, and if external evil invades, it will only take a moment for the spirit to go astray and become possessed.”

"The Qingyang Fu is a method of cultivating the spirit. It is also a method left over from the Qingyang Palace in the Eastern Han Dynasty."

“The three treasures of essence, energy and spirit are the great medicine of the human body, responding to the changes of the three talents of heaven, earth and man.”

"..."

Zhou Yi closed his eyes and listened quietly to what Huang Shang said. The doubts he had in the armory were also solved bit by bit. Although his cultivation had not improved, he was really grateful to Huang Shang at this moment!

This old man doesn't just have some stuff, he has a lot of stuff!
