Lu Ling's style has always been heroic and valiant. It is difficult to simply regard her as a weak woman.
Yang Ji had long been accustomed to this. There were only two guards from the City Lord's Mansion, and they couldn't help but frown slightly when they saw Lu Ling and Yang Ji "holding arms".
"Well, here you go."
Lu Ling suddenly remembered something, took out a wooden box from his arms and handed it over:
"The martial arts examination is a major event for the imperial court, and the entire Pingchuan City is busy. In addition, my father and others seemed to have caught wind of something, so the rewards for the liberal arts examination have not been distributed. I happened to be free, so I took advantage of this opportunity to get it.
coming."
Yang Ji opened the box with a click, and a bright red, ruby-like pill lay quietly at the bottom of the box, emitting bright light.
Seeing this pill, the room suddenly became a little quiet. The two accompanying guards swallowed their saliva unconsciously, with envious expressions on their faces.
There is only one pill, but even two civil servants who are not familiar with martial arts can feel the majestic blood energy contained in the pill, flowing like waves.
Looking at this pill, Yang Ji was surprised. This did not seem to be the "Iron Bone Pill" awarded in the liberal arts examination. The "Iron Bone Pill" definitely did not have such a high grade.
"This is a blood energy pill, which is made by extracting blood essence from the bodies of more than a dozen extremely dangerous beasts in the martial arts realm. It can greatly increase the blood energy of a warrior. It is extremely precious. Even the treasury of the city lord's palace does not have many of them.
.”
Lu Ling's voice came from her ears. She had a special status and knew all kinds of pills and the inside story:
"The liberal arts examination was supposed to reward Iron Bone Pills. This pill belonged to a former student of the historian in the capital. Knowing that the historian wanted to accept a disciple, he specially funded it privately to fulfill his teachings. The historian's
The student has a special status, and even the imperial court cannot refuse it, and it does not violate the rules. - Look under the box, there is an iron bone pill."
"Blood Qi Pills" must be taken at the martial arts level. This kind of reward should not appear in the "liberal arts examination". However, it is understandable that Shi Shi's former royal student personally helped.
Moreover, although the elegant "literary students" cannot take it, it is still possible to replace them all with "Iron Bone Pills" after selling them.
Yang Ji opened the bottom of the box, and sure enough, there was another layer with a gray-white pill, but the grade was obviously much different from the "Blood Qi Pill".
“This time it’s really a mistake!”
Yang Ji looked at the second pill on the bottom and was filled with emotion. He was a little reluctant to take the literary exam, but he also hoped it would help him take the martial arts exam.
I didn't expect that the reward this time would be so generous.
A warrior's blood energy needs to be cultivated step by step. Anything that can actively increase the thickness of a warrior's blood energy is definitely not an ordinary pill.
Moreover, the ferocious beasts that can be rated as dangerous must be at least the second level of martial arts. With my current strength, it is still very dangerous to encounter these ferocious beasts one on one.
"You two, please thank the historian for me when you go back."
Yang Ji turned around and said to the two civil servants.
After all, this time was also thanks to the historian. If the historian had not retired from old age and returned to his hometown, and had to choose disciples in Pingchuan County, there would not be such a generous reward.
"Blood Qi Pills" are no small matter and extremely precious, but to the nobles and royal family in the hinterland of the imperial city, they are obviously nothing.
"You're welcome! We'll go back and resume our duties right now."
The two civil servants cupped their hands and responded quickly. The reward was handed over to Yang Ji. Lu Ling, the untouchable eldest lady, also arrived to wait on him, and the two of them immediately left.
"You guys should go out too. Is there anyone else in Pingchuan City who can threaten me?"
When Lu Ling saw the two leaving, his heart suddenly moved. He also looked back at the two guards, waved his hands and said.
"This... Miss, the city lord has ordered us, no matter where the Miss goes, we must follow her."
The two guards looked confused.
Since Lu Ling was in danger last time in Jin'an City and almost died in the mountains, the Lord of Pingchuan City has stepped up his protection of Lu Ling. These soldiers from the military were sent for this reason, not to protect Lu Ling.
The guard's strength is not as powerful as Lu Ling's.
These guards were sent to follow her to restrict Lu Ling's movements. As long as she is not as impulsive as before, there will naturally be no danger.
"Okay, okay. You go and guard outside first."
Lu Ling waved his hand, knowing that his father was paying attention.
The two guards did not persist and exited the room.
"Well, it's much more comfortable this way."
Lu Ling stretched her hands and feet, then sat down at the table, poured herself a glass of water, and said casually:
"Yang Ji, please be careful about that blood energy pill. Don't swallow it yet. Wait until you reach the second level of martial arts before taking it."
"Oh why?"
Yang Ji raised his eyebrows and said in surprise.
Lu Ling stopped, looked at Yang Ji up and down, and then said with a smile:
"If I'm not mistaken, you should be at the peak of the first level of martial arts now. It's a pity that you are chaotic and ignorant. You don't know how to refine the internal organs at all, so you have been stuck in the past. Blood Qi Pills are used to increase blood Qi.
Yes, your situation is like a cup filled with water, no matter how much water is poured into it, it will be a waste."
"Refining the internal organs!"
Yang Ji was greatly moved when he heard this. Lu Ling's realm was indeed much higher than him. He could tell at a glance not only his realm and cultivation level, but also prescribed the right medicine for him, and his questions were also to the point.
Although Yang Ji knew that there was something wrong with his training method, he still didn't know what was wrong. Lu Ling pointed out his problem with just two words.
"Is the second level of the martial arts realm actually the refining of internal organs? I'm trying to figure it out on my own and have no experience at all. Lu Ling, can you tell me what the martial arts realm is like?"
Yang Ji took advantage of this opportunity to finally ask the doubts he had long had in his heart.
He has no shortage of strength and talent, but he only lacks a guide. Although Lu Ling is about the same age as him, not much older, he has much more experience and knowledge than him.
"Hey, I really don't know what the elders of your Yang family did to not even tell you this kind of thing."
Lu Ling shook her head and laughed. In more than half a year, she was able to find out some things based on her identity, but she was an outsider after all, so she couldn't go into details.
Yang Ji didn't explain, he just listened attentively.
"You also know about the breathing realm. As for the martial arts realm, it is divided into ten realms. In the first realm, when you practice boxing, you have to practice until your blood is full and you can break monuments and crack rocks. This is the realm you have reached now.
.”
Lu Ling stretched out a fist, made a gesture, and continued:
"The second level of martial arts is to refine the internal organs. At this time, the essence is infused, and the blood is like pulp. When ordinary people bleed, it is light, like water, so we say blood water, blood water..., but the strong people of the second level of martial arts,
It's not water anymore, but plasma. It flows out, just like ink, full of essence. What you have to do now is to pour the blood and essence back in and start refining the internal organs. Only by strengthening the internal organs can you continue to move forward.
It’s a matter of gradual progress.”
Yang Ji nodded. What Lu Ling was talking about was neither martial arts nor martial arts, but some common sense about martial arts. But it was this common sense that made Yang Ji listen very seriously.
He had been immersed in the martial arts realm for a long time, and the only thing he missed was a final kick. At this time, listening to Lu Ling's instructions, his mind became clear and clear.
"As for the third level of martial arts, it is called 'little transfer'. This is the essence of martial arts. The first and second levels of martial arts are just the preparation. Only when you reach this step can you be considered to have entered the palace and achieved 'small success' in your skills."
"This step involves the method of transporting qi and blood, which must be done with sutras. You should pay attention to it in the future."
Lu Ling said.
"Sutra paintings?"
Yang Ji was surprised. This was the first time he came into contact with this concept.
"Um."
Lu Ling nodded, completely teaching Yang Ji as a disciple, telling him everything he knew:
"Sutra paintings are things that record the essence of martial arts. One painting shows the extremes of heaven and earth, and another painting shows the secrets of martial arts. The unity of fist and mind you practiced before was modeled after the scripture paintings. The real martial arts
, can only be understood, cannot be expressed in words, this is the sutra and painting. Without a strong understanding, you will never become a truly strong person. This is the difference between the martial arts realm and the breathing realm. Effort is no longer the first determining factor.
.”
"Nowadays, many families have created many secret books, martial arts texts, insights, and true scriptures based on the classics and paintings... These are all not classics and paintings, but defective and inferior products. They are for ordinary people who are not talented enough.
People who practice these crooked things will never be able to become truly strong!"
Lu Ling changed from being casual and spoke in a very serious tone:
"Yang Ji, you have reached the realm of martial arts now. Please be careful in the future. If you don't have to, don't practice those martial arts scriptures, secret borrowings and the like easily. Such things are just other people's opinions. If you imitate others' practice, you are just following others' mistakes.
Going astray consumes one’s spirituality and imprisons one’s thinking.”
Yang Ji nodded, thoughtfully. He has not reached this level yet, and does not have as deep a feeling as Lu Ling, but what Lu Ling said was based on experience, so Yang Ji also remembered it all with heart.
"When you reach the peak of the third level of martial arts, you will reach the state of 'blood energy is like a dragon'. The blood energy in the body rushes out of the body, condenses and does not disperse, and is extremely powerful. The blood vessels vibrate like a river."
Lu Ling checked the indexes one by one, and each one was familiar with the treasures:
"The fourth level of martial arts is the furnace of blood. When you reach this point, all the blood in your body gathers and turns into a small and exquisite "furnace of blood" in the body. From then on, the blood erupts, and you can exert incredible power if you think about it unexpectedly. And
The roar of blood energy can absorb enough essence and blood energy from the void, mountains, forests, wood and rocks."
"The fifth level of martial arts, Little Zhoutian. A martial artist at this level has opened the aperture, and from then on the body circulates around the world, and the blood becomes lead. The body of a strong man at this level is as heavy as a mountain. Even if he stands there and does not perform any martial arts, he will be eighty-eight.
Even a big man can’t lift it.”
"I once heard a legend that there was a flood in a place that was about to break through the embankment, endangering dozens of villages below. At the critical moment, a strong man from Xiao Zhoutian stood on the embankment, and the embankment immediately stopped.
It doesn't move, it's like it's weighed down by a mountain, no matter how strong the wind or waves are, it can't break it down!"
"A strong man at the sixth level of martial arts is called a general. He has yin and yang fire in his body, and yin and yang in his blood. His strength is even more incredible."
"A strong man at the seventh level of martial arts is called a Martial Sect. He has a 'Blood Essence Copper Furnace' in his body, and his blood turns into sand. When he sprays a mouthful of blood, what comes out is not sand, but iron sand. Basically, people at this level are so strong.
They are invulnerable, unless it is a magic weapon, it will be difficult to pierce their skin."
"Moreover, Wuzong's blood is an excellent weapon and elixir training material."
"The eighth level Martial Sect, the ninth level Martial Lord, the tenth level Martial Saint!... There is no need to talk about these. Because I don't know much about it. I only know that it is not their magical powers that we can imagine. It is said that there are more than Martial Saints.
Higher realms, similar to gods, are even more beyond our reach."
Lu Ling said. Pingchuan County is just a small border area. It is amazing that Lu Ling can know these things because of her family background.
This remark made Yang Ji fascinated. Even Lu Ling was aroused in his thoughts. He was in a trance and the room suddenly became quieter. After all, which young man doesn't yearn for powerful power and the wonderful world outside?
