Chapter 782 Grand Master
As long as a person is alive and breathing, the muscles, bones, and even every cell in the body are consuming energy. The source of energy is naturally the sugar in food and various nutrients.
But now Lu Cheng can minimize the body's consumption to the greatest extent, even down to the smallest tissues of the human body.
On the surface, this seems like just a skill for starving people.
But in fact, being able to control the human body to this extent means that Lu Cheng can burst out all the energy in his body at any time and gather it into a terrifying attack. His physical strength, endurance, and self-healing ability can be said to be inhuman.
Moreover, during his retreat, Lu Cheng did not just fast without eating or drinking, but also studied in depth the martial arts books of various schools that he had obtained from Baliming.
Whether it is Shaolin, Wudang, Bagua, Xingyi, or Tai Chi, these schools have some secrets that are not passed on, which contain the exploration of the pinnacle of martial arts and the pursuit and conjecture of the transformation of the essence of life by predecessors of all generations.
Of course, there are inevitably some errors and omissions in these classics. After all, few of the predecessors who wrote and compiled the classics could truly reach Lu Cheng's current level, let alone have more than a thousand years of experience and knowledge reserves like Lu Cheng.
During the seven days, although Lu Cheng's physical body maintained the minimum standard of consumption, his mind was extremely active. He even had a feeling of his soul leaving his body and exploring the mysteries of the universe.
Lu Cheng was particularly touched when he read some Taoist books on alchemy. The principles contained in Baopuzi, written by alchemy masters like Ge Hong, were similar to those of Baodan Zuoku.
Lu Cheng guessed that Ge Hong might be a master who had not yet reached the Baodan realm, or his spiritual realm had reached an extremely high level, otherwise he would never have been able to write such a classic.
The Taoist "Classic of Purity and Tranquility" also explains some principles of achieving harmony between man and nature and one-to-one correspondence between the inner and outer universes through meditation and introspection, which is exactly the same as the principle of "harmony between man and nature".
The more Lu Cheng studied these things, the more he was amazed at the wisdom of the ancients.
Chinese philosophy seems to have gone a long way on the road to immortality. Although we don't know whether it will be successful in the end, some of the conjectures are indeed very feasible.
When Lu Cheng finished his retreat and walked out, his whole spirit seemed to have reached a state of transcendence.
Afterwards, Lu Cheng immediately asked people to prepare paper, pen, and recording and video equipment. He picked up the pen and began to write a scripture on the paper. It was the first chapter of the Neijing Sutra in the Taoist "Huangting Sutra", the Shangqing Chapter.
"Before the Supreme Purple Cloud Emperor, there is the Jade Morning Lord of the Supreme Dao. He composes seven-character poems in his leisure time, and transforms into five forms and myriad gods..."
Lu Cheng was writing and reciting at the same time, but the language he read out was not standard Mandarin, but a relatively unique accent.
Huang Yuqing and Xie Li, who were helping with audio and video recording, were hearing this kind of accent for the first time. It was obviously a very strange accent that they had never heard before, but the two of them were fascinated by it unconsciously. In the process of listening, the tendons, bones, qi and blood in their bodies could not help but vibrate slightly. It was surprisingly similar to the feeling when they practiced Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound at other times, except that the effect of the practice was more gentle, and there was a sense of Taoist uprightness and peace.
After Lu Cheng silently recited the thirty-six chapters of the Huangting Neijing Jing in one breath, his blood seemed to boil. On the special parchment in front of him, the words written in a dragon-like and phoenix-like style seemed to come alive, containing Lu Cheng's most profound understanding of martial arts.
If the Shaolin Zen Master Qiuyue's Annotations on the Yijinjing Authentic Edition greatly reduced the difficulty of marrow refining, like reducing it from a doctoral student to a graduate student, then Lu Cheng's special edition of the Huangting Sutra, which is accompanied by audio, video and text, has further reduced the difficulty, directly achieving the leap from a doctoral student to a high school student.
Even if a person who has never practiced martial arts can recite the "Huangting Sutra" accurately according to Lu Cheng's pronunciation and frequency, it can also play a certain role in exercising the internal organs, blood and marrow, and achieve the effect of strengthening the body.
Being able to explain the secrets of marrow refining so clearly and concisely shows that Lu Cheng's mastery of cultivation has reached a truly meticulous level.
At this time, Lu Cheng, with just this copy of the "Huangting Sutra", could create a super sect that could surpass Shaolin and Wudang, and become a figure beyond the legendary Bodhidharma and Zhang Sanfeng.
After finishing the arrangement, Lu Cheng looked at Xie Li and Huang Yuqing and said, "Gather Li Lengdan and the other three. Put down all your work and study the video carefully. Read the Huangting Sutra according to the frequency and rhythm of my reading. If you can finish reading it in one breath and the effect of your practice exceeds that of Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound, you may be able to make further progress in martial arts."
"Yes!"
"Remember, don't spread it outside."
In fact, Lu Cheng still left some tricks in the "Huangting Sutra" that he just recited. If outsiders got this video and recited the Huangting Sutra according to Lu Cheng's rhythm, it would at most serve as a physical exercise, but it would not be of much help in refining the marrow. Moreover, if recited too much, it would cause excessive exercise and damage to the body.
If combined with special medicine made from blood orchid, the effect can be enhanced to a level comparable to that of "Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound".
If the practitioner has enough talent, this method of practice can be even better than Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound.
More importantly, after this period of preparation and practice, Lu Cheng's own physique and spirit also achieved a new breakthrough:
Lu Cheng:
Constitution: 45
Spirit: 44
Lu Cheng had just finished his retreat and sorted out his gains. When he walked outside, he saw Baliming discussing and communicating with several people, including Chen Aiyang from Singapore, and local people Bai Quanyi, Ye Hong and others.
Seeing Lu Cheng appear, Baliming immediately stopped sparring with Chen Aiyang. He just looked at Lu Cheng, and then all his strength burst out. He rushed towards Lu Cheng like a cannonball. When he got close, he had already used all his skills. His body was roaring like a tiger, and his fists were like a big sun, smashing towards Lu Cheng.
Chen Aiyang, who was standing by, couldn't help but exclaimed: "Tiger Roaring Golden Bell Cover!"
When the Golden Bell Cover is cultivated to the highest level, when it is used, the whole body is accompanied by the sound of tiger roar, with amazing defense power and also extremely strong lethality. Combined with Shaolin's Vajra Wheel Fist, it moves like a mountain collapse and the earth splits.
However, this time Lu Cheng did not use any hard skills to receive the attack. He just drew a circle with his hands and used the simplest force-relieving and counter-shock move in Tai Chi to easily resolve Baliming's move that was like a landslide and directly counter-shocked him out.
Baliming felt that his previous move was like hitting cotton, but the cotton instantly turned into a spring and returned all the force he had exerted.
After taking seven or eight steps backwards and leaving seven or eight half-foot deep pits on the ground, Balimin finally steadied himself and said in surprise, "You seem to have gotten stronger again!"
