... destroyed!
The superb punch that I had painstakingly created actually had such dangerous side effects!
Qin Fen raised his slightly trembling arm. Arms and legs were the second life of a martial artist. If the meridians of his arm were damaged, it would have a detrimental effect on his future development, it might even lead to disability.
How could this happen? Qin Fen clenched his fists hard. Even after applying such a tremendous force, he could not feel the slightest bit of damage in the meridians.
"At your age, this punch is already perfect." Master patted Qin Fen's shoulder."Don't forget, the original intention of creating the Eighteen Dragon Gathering the Winds and Clouds was not to use it against martial artists of the same level!"
Stupefied, Qin Fen nodded. When he was carrying out the mission, who could guarantee that his opponents would be of the same level or of lower star-class?
"Your original intention was leapfrog challenge, wasn't it?" Master raised his head, looking at the screen on which the video was being replayed, again and again."In fact, you don't need to be discouraged. As I said, this punch is already quite perfect for your age. The only thing you haven't considered is that, while your punch and true energy can challenge martial artists above your level, can your meridians also have the ability to challenge beyond your level?"
"I had thought about it, " Qin Fen answered with a serious look on his face."I had tested it several times carefully, but this kind of damage was too minuscule. And with my current perception, I was unable to notice such subtle damage to the meridians."
Master nodded, satisfied. The basic quality a martial artist needed to truly grow up and reach the final peak was also the most fundamental quality, and that was to own up to their mistakes rather than come up with an excuse to cover up the mistakes.
"There is nothing wrong with Eighteen Dragon Gathering the Winds and Clouds, including the damage caused to your meridians." A slight smile was hung on Master's lips."Kid, judging by the growth of your strength, even if I didn't tell you about the damaged caused by Eighteen Dragon Gathering the Winds and Clouds to your meridians, I can guarantee that you would have been able to detect it before your meridians started to get seriously damaged. And you should have been able to come up with the correction thereafter. I pointed it out in advance so that you would take fewer detours."
Qin Fen, with a bitter smile, lightly nodded. Today, Master talked about too many things that he had never thought before. His self-confidence had suffered a huge blow.
"Kid, you don't need to be discouraged." Master looked at the screen."I am not trying to comfort you. I don't know what you have gone through to have an unswerving determination that is beyond normal people. Will is the most valuable thing for a martial artist, even more important than so-called talent. Your heart will make it difficult for you to go astray on the road of martial dao. And coupled with your talent, you would have naturally discovered the problem of Eighteen Dragon Gathering the Winds and Clouds in the future."
Master snapped his finger as Qin Fen punching the Eighteen Dragon Gathering the Winds and Clouds reappeared on the screen. However, it did not cause any damage to his meridians this time.
It was the perfect punch!
Staring at the screen, Qin Fen slowly furrowed his brow."Master, there was not a single change in the circulation or intensity of true energy in that punch, then, how... ?"
"As I have said before, the Eighteen Dragon Gathering the Winds and Clouds itself doesn't have any problem. The real problem is in you, it's your meridians that aren't strong enough." Master rubbed his chin."When you were growing up, the nutrition you got was only enough for normal people. Compared to the true martial artists, your nutrition was insufficient, which lead to your weak meridians. Although your physique has been slowly improving through better nutrients these days, at the end of the day, your congenital inadequacy had not made a full recovery."
Congenital inadequacy? Qin Fen raised his hand, touching his heart. Had brother not suddenly left without any reason, perhaps the congenital inadequacy due to the shortage of nutrients would not have appeared. But then again, I would not have had been able to practice this persevering will from living alone.
Congenital inadequacy or persevering will, which is more important? Qin Fen stared at his own image on the screen in a trance. For a moment, he was unable to answer his own question.
"Kid, if you have time, do more of these true energy oscillations." Master pointed at the screen in the sky as another video of strengthening of Qin Fen's body through repeated fundamental oscillations of true energy."Not only can these oscillations heal you, they can also strengthen your body and soul. Only, the effects of these oscillations are a bit worse than the advanced level. However, they are sufficient to repair your weak meridians. Furthermore, they also have the effect of strengthening your meridians."
Qin Fen's face slowly regained a gratified smile as he felt like he was finally seeing the light in the darkness. It turned out that Master went in a roundabout manner and even spoke of Eighteen Dragon Gathering the Winds and Clouds, all because he was afraid that I would practice true energy oscillations a few times.
"As for the other oscillations of true energy, you will have to make efforts to approach them as soon as possible." Master placed his hand on Qin Fen's shoulder."I will let you experience that feeling first hand..."
Humm...
Suddenly, the true energy inside Qin Fen's body started oscillating in an uncontrolled manner. It was the most basic oscillation but this oscillation gave off a more delicate and smooth feeling than the previous few. Immediately after, the true energy oscillations in Qin Fen's body suddenly sped up for a while before slowing down for another.
Qin Fen felt like several world-renowned masseurs were giving him a top-level massage at the same time. He could not help but open his mouth and let out a groan of extreme satisfaction. At this moment, it seemed that the injuries in his body were healing quickly.
"Next, several main meridians will oscillate at different frequencies, " just as Master's voice fell into Qin Fen's ears, Qin Fen felt as if all of his bones had gone limp. It was an effect that top-level masseurs couldn't even achieve. He could really feel the injuries of his internal organs getting better.
So mystical! If the true energy oscillation of different frequencies is like this, then, what about different oscillations of all the meridians? Qin Fen's eyes lit up at the thought of this. All of Qin Fen pores opened up from too much comfort as the true energy in all of his meridians oscillated at different frequencies at the same time.
Internal organs, blood, muscles, bones!
In the blink of an eye, Qin Fen clearly felt a kind of comfort that could not be described with words alone! As if it was the ascension from the mythical legends.
So comfortable! It was so refreshing that all eighteen thousand pores in his body opened up, expelling all the ailment in his body outside.
As soon as Master lifted his palm, Qin Fen's pores closed up once more, as the refreshing feeling quickly receded from his body.
"Do you remember what you just felt?" Master looked at Qin Fen, smiling."I will only let you experience it this once, therefore, don't pretend that you don't remember."
Embarrassed, Qin Fen scratched his head. That feeling was truly refreshing, so refreshing that he could hardly refuse to experience it again. If he could experience the full-scale oscillations once more, fifty percent of his injuries might even heal.
"Carefully recall it." Master gave a kind smile."Don't blame me for not helping you heal your injuries. Healing these injuries is indeed as easy as lifting a finger for me, but it would not be good for you. Getting injured is not necessarily a bad thing. Of course, it might be bad as well, but that depends on how you do it. Any good thing can become bad, and any bad thing can also become good."
Qin Fen nodded for the umpteenth time today. Indeed he might recover quickly if someone else helped him heal the injuries, but his life would be lacking the process of conquering the injuries and the valuable experience of conquering the wounds as well as the improvement of his body.
The path of martial dao would be incomplete without any bumps on the road. And how could an incomplete path of martial dao lead anyone to the peak? How would he ever be able to face the Earth Martial God, Song Wendong?
"Kid, although the injuries limit your strength temporarily, they give you the opportunity to have better control and avoid the impact of collisions with your opponent in the battle that would affect the healing of your bones." Master looked at Qin Fen with appreciation."You have to remember that you have the firmest heart. If I help you too many times, it might speed up your recovery, but it will also give you a sense of dependence, which in turn would shake your most valuable perseverance."
"I understand." Qin Fen nodded once more."The true energy oscillations just now had helped me a lot already. It's enough, it's already enough."
A smiling look of appreciation appeared in Master's eyes."Right! Kid, apart from the true energy oscillations, try to use the Rejuvenation Art if you have the time. It's a very good art. Those who can create healing arts are geniuses of heavens. Unfortunately, you have only learned half of this art."
"Half?" Suddenly, Qin Fen's eyes lit up."Master, you mean to say that the true Rejuvenation Art should oscillate all of the true energy when circulating it!? The person who taught me it only taught me these because I didn't understand true energy oscillations!?"
"Smart!" Master raised his thumb."Apart from your perseverance, you also have a head that infers other things from one fact. With these two things, you will definitely become someone big in the future."
Qin Fen smiled. It must not be that Song Jia didn't pass it to me intentionally. Maybe Song Jia herself didn't know that the Rejuvenation Art still has a deeper application method: true energy oscillation .
Using the true energy oscillations without a strong control over true energy would only be harmful; there would be no benefits whatsoever. As a martial arts grandmaster, Earth Martial God Song Wendong clearly knew the stakes.
"Unfortunately..." A slightly mournful look appeared on Master's face."Unfortunately, I was not born in the same era as the one who created the Rejuvenation Art, or else we would have exchange pointers with each other. It would have been very wonderful for sure."
"Exchange pointers with Qilin!?" Qin Fen scratched his head."Master, you may have seen him. Song Wendong's strength..."
"Kid, " Master waved his hand, interrupting Qin Fen."He might not be as good as me, but his strength is absolutely not as what you might have heard. In this world, everything you have seen with your own eyes has the possibility of being false. Only when you have experienced it first hand can you comment about it."
"Thank you for your teaching, Master." Qin Fen bowed to Master like a disciple."Master wants to teach me that those who can make you look up will naturally not be any worse."
Master's figure began to blur, which happened every time he was about to disappear.
Qin Fen arched his waist and bowed to Master, bidding farewell. Meanwhile, Master's last words before his departure rang in his ears, "Okay, since you have been injured, then, advance forth with injuries! These injuries will give you another chance to make a qualitative leap. It will depend on whether or not you can take it.".
