Chapter 186 - You Are Too Old to Get a Promotion! (2/2)
Elder Yi took a step backward with his hands circled around his body. A very strong Qi power suddenly surged from his body, like the wind in the desert which scattered the stones on the ground.
”Hmm?”
Fang Qiu narrowed his eyes slightly.
He kept close eyes on Elder Yi's movements.
The next moment.
When Elder Yi reached out his hands, Fang Qiu actually moved his body and copied the movement of Elder Yi completely, flying toward Elder Yi fast.
”Bang!”
There was a loud bang.
On the arena, under the impact of internal Qi from the two of them, a large amount of smoke dust rose from the cracks in the ground.
In the smoke dust.
A figure was moving backwards.
Taking a closer look.
This person was obviously Elder Yi.
When they looked at the other side.
Fang Qiu was standing in place, motionless.
Under that arena.
”So Amazing!”
”Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!
”I did not come to this comparing-notes assembly in vain. Those so-called comparing-notes are not comparable with this one at all!”
”Yes. What a horrible skill. What great power. What a thrilling fight!”
”Senior John Doe deserves to be a senior!”
”It's so enjoyable. If there is such a competition every day, I'd rather stay here all the time.”
The shock in everyone's eyes hadn't gone. They all could not help exclaiming.
After all.
They were basically martial arts practitioners. This could be regarded as the first time they saw the battle of the Martial Superior Level. This kind of battle had been beyond their imagination, so their shock was reasonable.
On the arena.
”It's the first time in my life to see your learning ability.”
Having known that he had lost, Elder Yi did not feel uncomfortable at all. Instead, he praised Fang Qiu as he clenched a fist to Fang Qiu.
Although Elder Yi was praising him.
Fang Qiu knew that Elder Yi was ridiculing him for learning moves from Elder Yi furtively.
”I'm flattered.”
Fang Qiu threw his fist in return.
”Since I have stolen your moves, what can you do to me?”
”Besides, the reason why I came here is to learn some moves furtively.”
”I'm wondering after this competition, have you seen any problem of me?”
Speaking of the competition, Elder Yi suddenly became serious and said, ”Why do I always stop at the first-class Martial Superior Level? Why can't I always get a promotion?”
Under the sparkling eyes of everyone, Fang Qiu said one sentence that none of them had ever thought of.
”You're too old to get a promotion.”
”Too old?”
All the people under the arena and Elder Yi were dumbfounded.
”Is age also a threshold for kung fu cultivation?”
They all knew that, but they didn't pay too much attention subconsciously. After all, most of the martial arts practitioner started cultivation from a young age. Who would think of the old age?
However.
As Fang Qiu reminded them, they all paid attention to the influence of age slightly.
”Senior, please explain in detail.”
Elder Yi said at once.
”As people get older, their physical function will gradually decline. But it's not a big deal for martial arts practitioners. After all, as long as they keep cultivating, their physical function will be maintained at a certain extent, which will not affect their cultivation excessively.”
Said Fang Qiu. Then he added. ”But it is a little different to you.”
Elder Yi didn't understand.
”Why am I just different?”
”When you were young, you must have fooled around a lot, which damaged your health a lot. Therefore, it is difficult to promote and break through now.”
Said Fang Qiu.
At the sound of this.
Elder Yi immediately became embarrassed.
”You are right. When I was young, I was a little bit like that.”
With a flush on Elder Yi's face, he said with embarrassment. Then he hurriedly asked, ”Senior, I'm wondering whether you have any method to help me pass this barrier?”
”This...”
Fang Qiu hesitated for a moment and then said. ”I have a method, but I've never tried it. I don't know if it works.”
”It's enough to have a method.”
Elder Yi was overjoyed. He clenched his fist and saluted to Fang Qiu hurriedly, saying. ”Senior, please give your advice.”
”This is a Taoist way of keeping healthy and fit, not cultivation.”
Fang Qiu said. ”This method has a great effect on the sick, the aged and leaky bodies. It's also called the life continuous method.”
Elder Yi listened carefully.
The people under the arena also didn't dare to interrupt him.
They held their breath attentively and listened to what method could let a person recover.
”This method emphasizes visualization.”
”You have to visualize that there is sunlight or moonlight on the top of your head. You control it by Qi and it will go inside from the Baihui acupoint on the top center of your head, shining brightly in the brain center. Then it will go into the vertebra along the back of the brain and go down slowly. Wherever it goes, use your eyes and consciousness to connect with this light to cooperate with the operation.”
”The light travels through the spine to the perineum, up to the lower belly. Then it splits in the lower belly, going to the left and right leg bones at the same time from the hip bone.”
”After that, it goes to the shin bone and down to the arch of the foot.”
”Then the light will go up from the arch of the foot alongside the shin bone, knee, leg bone. It will pass the perineum and combine in the lower belly. Then it will go up alongside the ren meridian, the navel, heart socket, larynx, philtrum, and eyebrow, going back to the Baihui acupoint on the top center of your head. Follow the circulation and visualize for more than nine times.”
”After that, you will definitely be vigorous and your mind will be clear.”
Speaking of this.
Fang Qiu paused for a while and looked at all of them, saying. ”About the so-called using energy to tonify brain in Taoism, people all think the most important energy of life is in the lower belly. In fact, it is between the front and the back of the brain, which is called 'diencephalon'.”
”If the middle-aged people practice this method, they can be full of Yang Qi in six or seven days with the power enriched.” ”If elder people practice this method, it will take longer time. So do sick people.”
”Besides, you still need to pay some attention when practicing it.”
Looking at Elder Yi, Fang Qiu said. ”This method could stick to individual consciousness easily. After you have some foundation of the practice, the physical changes may lead to some mental state.”
”At that time, if your mind changes as the realm and if you think at random or being a smart-ass, it will be easy to get into a wrong way.”
”Watch out to dissolve the desires attached.”
”If you are not feeling well, you may be practicing incorrectly, so you should stop practicing immediately.”
”Pay attention to a daylong stream of mini meals during the practicing period. It's better to eat vegetables.”
”Sick people should not practice this method. They could only practice after recovery.”
