Chapter 12 The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea

“I finally got started with the Xingyi Breathing Method. It took me more than a month to practice it, and it was really not easy.

I don’t know what level other practitioners of Xingyi Quan Sutra in Daxia have reached.

With my current state, what level do I belong to?" Xia Ming was a little curious.

Just like after getting started with cooking skills, it has become one of the best in Lin'an City, attracting a large number of dignitaries to taste it.

Xingyi breathing method, which is also at the entry level, is not easy to understand.

After getting started with Xingyiquan, Xia Ming started exercising again and felt completely different.

Every move, punch and kick, between stretching and contracting, is like a dragon or snake swimming, and there is an inexplicable air current flowing through the body.

Xia Ming knew that this was the "qi", or "jin", that he had developed after learning Xingyi Quan.

Qi is like Gong, opening up the eight meridians; strength is like a hammer, forging the internal organs.

According to the division of the martial arts world, Xingyiquan belongs to the internal martial arts, which can both exercise the body and refine the Qi.

In Neijiaquan, there is a saying that the muscles, bones and skin are trained externally and one breath is practiced internally.

It is an all-round way to enhance physical fitness, reshape life, and prolong life.

After exercising for a long day, Xia Ming looked at the data panel and saw that the experience value behind the Xingyi Breathing Method had changed.

[Exercise: Xingyi Breathing Method (Introduction 2/1000)]

"Similar to my cooking skills, improving the experience value of Xingyi Breathing also requires my unremitting exercise."

Xia Ming frowned slightly, cooking is very simple and can be done in a few minutes.

However, it takes about half an hour to operate the Xingyi Breathing Method for one week.

"Cooking skills are just that. The Xingyi Breathing Method is related to my long-term goal, and I must practice it diligently.

And every day's work, from morning to night, will take up a lot of time.

Making money and practicing martial arts cannot be abandoned."

Xia Ming thought for a moment and felt that he still needed to put more effort into accumulating bioenergy.

As long as there is a large amount of biological energy, you can quickly increase experience and increase various physical attributes.

"I now eat a large amount of food every day, fully exercise my digestion and absorption, and can accumulate 5 points of bioenergy. In a short period of time, it is no longer possible to improve again.

Unless there is a brand new food source. It seems that is the only one."

Xia Ming thought of the "Chen's Ancient Health Prescription" purchased from Zhenhu Service Area.

Although the original version is not very effective, with his understanding of the nature of food, he can completely improve it himself.

"That's an idea."

For example, Xia Ming has studied the "Linglong Bazhen Soup" recorded in Chen's ancient prescription. The combination of ingredients and the preparation of medicinal ingredients have many shortcomings, and some even inhibit the medicinal properties.

"In addition to Chen's ancient health-preserving prescriptions, it is better to collect some other ancient prescriptions and even traditional Chinese medicine health-preserving techniques, and learn from them. You may have unexpected surprises."

It was late at night, and Xia Ming was very tired. After eating some late-night snacks, he washed up and quickly fell asleep.

The next day, the sun rises.

Xia Ming was already at his usual place, exercising, practicing Xingyiquan, and circulating his inner energy for a long time.

The Qi comes out of the Dantian, travels around the Dantian, and appears flexibly. It travels through the body's two meridians, the eight extraordinary meridians, the five internal organs, and the four poles of the human body. After traveling around in a circle, it returns to the Dantian.

A puff of turbid air, about an inch long and as straight as a sharp edge, spurted out from Xia Ming's mouth.

After practicing the Xingyi Breathing Method for a week, my clothes were soaked with sweat. It was much more strenuous than ordinary exercise.

"Young man, you have great skills. Are you practicing Xingyi Quan?"

At some point, an old man in Taoist robes with lightning-like features came to Xia Ming's side.

Xia Ming glanced sideways and saw that the man was probably over sixty years old, but he was very healthy.

"you are?"

The old man in Taoist robes smiled and said: "I see that you have been training here for more than half a month, and you persist every day. I thought you just had some talent in martial arts.

Today, it seems that the old man made a mistake. In one day, you have become very good at martial arts."

Xia Ming's expression was stern, like a cold light on his back. He had forgotten this flaw, and he didn't expect someone to see it.

Seeing Xia Ming's expression, Fang Daosheng showed a kind smile and explained: "Little friend, the old man has no ill intentions. I also know something about Xingyi Quan, so I came out to meet him."

Xia Ming temporarily put down his guard, clasped his hands into fists, and said, "I wonder if you are old, do you have any advice?"

"It's not about giving advice, it's just about communicating and learning from each other. Let me introduce myself, my name is Fang Daosheng, and I am now the president of the Lin'an City Martial Arts Exchange Association."

Xia Ming turned his head slightly and introduced himself as well.

"President Fang, my name is Xia Ming."

"Little friend Xia Ming is young, but has extraordinary talents. He has practiced Xingyiquan to this level. The old man has itchy hands, can you help me?"

Fang Daosheng's deep eyes revealed a desire to compete.

Although Xia Ming was eager to give it a try in his heart, he refused without hesitation on the outside.

The other party is quite young. If anything goes wrong between fists and feet, he will be held responsible.

"President Fang, I'm sorry!"

Fang Daosheng looked a little disappointed when he saw Xia Ming's firm refusal.

Martial arts must compete. Although the opponent is very powerful, but he doesn't even have the courage to compete with him, how can he achieve success in martial arts.

"Little friend Xia Ming, if you want to exchange martial arts in the future, you can come to Lin'an Martial Arts Association to find me. This is my business card."

Xia Ming took the gilded business card and nodded gently.

"If I have a chance, I will go!"

…

The chance encounter with Fang Daosheng was just a small episode.

After accepting the business card, Xia Ming didn't care and came to the hotel kitchen.

"God of Cooking, why are you here so early today?" Ye Qing asked curiously.

In the past, Xia Ming would arrive in the kitchen around ten o'clock in the morning, but now it's only eight o'clock in the morning.

"I want to try something new." Xia Ming smiled.

Ye Qing's eyes lit up after hearing this, showing a cunning look, "You want to research new dishes, that would be great."

Xia Ming nodded and began to collect some raw materials and prepare a health soup based on the memory in his mind.

This is, these days, he has been studying "Chen's Ancient Health Prescription" and searching some other tonic soups from the Internet. Based on the characteristics of the materials, he has newly developed a large tonic soup.

"The snapping turtle is full of vitality and can be used as the main medicine, using the five internal organs as a guide. There are also eight treasures such as sparrow and earth dragon, plus ginseng, cinnamon, chuanxiong, dried rehmannia root, poria, atractylodes, licorice, astragalus, white peony and other auxiliary ingredients.

material……

The five elements are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other, and are supplemented by extreme yin and extreme yang, so that yin and yang are mutually reinforcing and the five elements flow, which is a great medicine for health."

Various raw materials, medicinal materials, and auxiliary materials were prepared in Xia Ming's hands through various preparation methods such as frying, steaming, boiling, and stir-frying. After an hour of cooking, they were finally released.

As soon as it came out of the oven, Ye Qing on the side saw it, his eyes were in disbelief, he felt a little fantasy, and shouted that it was impossible.

"God of Cooking, am I dazzled? I saw turtles, rabbits, sparrows, snakes, chickens, geese, etc. swimming in the sea."

Xia Ming did not answer, but stared at the newly developed Dabu Decoction with excitement in his eyes.

"The soup is rich in color, green in color and fragrant, like a vast ocean. Eight treasures appear from it and float on the sea of ​​soup. This great medicine may be called the "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea"."
