Chapter 25: Mind Power Through

  Indestructible Primordial Spirit

  Wang Lishou left, as a martial artist, although due to age reasons, he is about to enter the physical function decline period, but as long as it's not the last moment, he can't give up. So, Wang Lishou still insists on the most basic martial arts practice every day.

  Lu Buqi couldn't wait to try out this trick, he was eager to see if it would work. He believed that as long as he recited the incantation, all his meridians would respond enthusiastically.

  Nianli is not a kind of power, but a state, where there is no one and no self, only this one thought. It is the most critical point in the practice of Li Qi, and the fundamental reason why different practices have different forms of Nianli manifestation.

  Like the Bear King's Great Power, it requires human willpower. Before searching for Luo Mai and controlling it, one must fully enter a state similar to that of the Bear King's thickness and overbearingness. This is somewhat like self-hypnosis through imagination, so that the entire body, to some extent, will gradually become stable and powerful.

  In fact, Lu Buqi is not unfamiliar with the concept of "nianli" (mental power), whether it's Wu Xing Fang Sheng Quan, Xingyiquan, Taiji or Baduanjin. A true master of internal martial arts will have a state of mental power that can penetrate through during their practice.

  To enter the "Bear King" state of mind, Lu Buqi was undoubtedly more skilled, he just stood up with a bear-like stance, and his whole body not only mentally but also physically transformed into a bear.

  Then Lu Buqi followed the three yin meridians and three yang meridians of the hand to feel the six collateral meridians attached to these six regular meridians! If Wang Lishou knew about Lu Buqi's current state, he would be shocked, because he had not taught Lu Buqi these six collaterals related to the arm, but only four.

  Yes, the four luo vessels are: Hand Taiyin Luo Vessel, Hand Shaoyin Luo Vessel, Hand Taiyang Luo Vessel and Hand Shaoyang Luo Vessel. These were taught by Wang Lishu to Lu Budie. In addition, there are five other luo vessels in the whole body: Foot Taiyin Luo Vessel, Foot Shaoyin Luo Vessel, Foot Taiyang Luo Vessel, Foot Shaoyang Luo Vessel and Spleen's Great Luo Vessel.

  There are a total of nine meridians, which is also the similarity between all the power training methods. The difference lies in the ability to use multiple meridians simultaneously. For example, the so-called "Nine Layers of Courage" refers to the simultaneous activation of the nine meridians, which is similar to the whole-body force of internal martial arts.

  Lu Buqi is looking for the six meridians because in his past life, the medical civilization of Huaxia was advanced and found that there were not nine human body meridians, but fifteen!

  In addition to the nine taught by Wang Leshou, there are also Hand Jueyin Luo Mai, Hand Yangming Luo Mai, Foot Jueyin Luo Mai, Foot Yangming Luo Mai, Ren Mai Luo and Du Mai Luo, totaling fifteen.

  If it weren't for Lu Bu's temporary test of the power of his force, he would probably go to feel the fifteen collaterals all over his body at the same time. This is not some kind of high-flying fantasy, but a kind of confidence that a martial artist has in his own physical awareness.

  But just as Lu Buqi was sensing the pulse, Xi Tu slipped into his room: "Buqi, I just saw Master Wang leave, he said that tomorrow he will test your ability to sense the pulse, I think I'm also a veteran, let me see if I can help you in any way."

  "Alright, Old Master can share your insights with me." Being interrupted wasn't exactly a pleasant thing, but Lu Buqi didn't show any expression, after all, Xi Tu was being kind.

  Xi Tu smiled and said: "I'm not talented enough, what's there to gain insight or not? It's just a superficial feeling. If it's useful to you, that's good."

  Lu Buqi smiled lightly: "Old Huotou, when did you become so humble?"

  "It's necessary, Sixth Master can't even be proud in front of you, how dare I, an old man, put on airs in front of you!" Xi Tu responded with a pretentious tone, then began to discuss his insights about the Force Formula with Lu Buqi.

  It has to be said that Xi Tu's understanding of Li Ke is not very good, at least compared to Wang Lishou, it is much worse. Moreover, his wording and tone are somewhat pale and lacking, and the feeling expressed is quite different from his own feelings. This may be why there are many experiences that can only be understood but cannot be explained in words.

  But Lu Buqi was still very happy, because from Xi Tu's performance, he indeed regarded Lu Buqi as his own more and more. Lu Buqi liked this feeling, which was not available in the dark organization of the previous life.

  After Xi Tu left, Lu Buqi re-entered the state of Nian Li Gan Wu...

  The next day, just after dawn, Lu Buqi and Wang Lishou arrived at the East Entrance under Xi Tu's escort. Since this was a transmission of the crucial skills, it couldn't be seen by other Zé slaves from too close a distance, lest they learn by stealth. Therefore, the Zé slaves from the Northwest House, including Lu Kang and Hui Niang, could only gaze from afar.

  Wang Lishou also didn't know from where, found several irregular wooden boards and sticks, selected one about half an inch thick and a foot long: "Nangong, are you ready?"

  Lu Buji lightly pinched the tip of his nose: "If you don't make good preparations for a whole night, the wooden board in your hand will probably greet my forehead."

  Haha, Wang Lishou nodded and said: "That's right, with your fighting skills, this test is just a drizzle. Come on, try to use your mental power to drive the energy of the Hand Taiyang Meridian to attack this wooden board!"

  He nodded slightly, and just as Wang Lishou had erected the wooden board, he didn't have any warm-up process at all, and suddenly a straight punch shot out towards the board.

  His fists moved like thunder, his fist strength surged like a cloud, and in the moment when Wang Lishou's eyes lit up, Lu Buqi's tightly clenched fist brought standard half-rotating force to crash onto the wooden board.

  "Crack!" With a crisp sound, the wooden board split into four pieces. Two of them were still clutched in Wang Lishou's hand, while the other two flew out and fell to the ground three zhang away.

  "Ah..." The gleam in Wang Lishou's eyes turned into incredulity: "Buqi, are you certain that today is the first time you've used the Force Formula?"

  Lu Buqi pinched his nose again: "Uh... I'm really sorry, last night I couldn't help myself and practiced for half the night."

  Wang Leshou was taken aback, and then burst out laughing: "Not to mention, you are absolutely the most talented person I've ever seen in terms of cultivation techniques. In just one night, not only do you not need to accumulate intent, but your punches are also swift and decisive. And earlier, when you threw that punch... tsk tsk, if I'm not mistaken, you must have mobilized the power of at least four meridians related to the hands!"

  Xi Tu's eyes sparkled beside him: "Master Wang, are you saying that he has already reached the fourth stage of Bravery now?"

  "It's not over yet!" Wang Lishou's expression was very colorful, and he picked up a wooden stick from the side that was more than an inch thick: "Nangong, come again. I didn't notice your waist and leg strength just now..."

  Lu Bu's mouth slightly curled up, not pretending, this time his body made a slight forward thrust, his left fist made a basic swing, like a giant hammer rising, fiercely crashing onto the wooden stick.

  The wooden stick snapped again, and Wang Lishou suddenly threw the two broken pieces of wood in his hand: "Buqi, tell me, how many strands of Luo Mai's power can you use at the same time? Just now, I found that your hands, legs, and waist, your entire body has a complete surge of courage... But you, you can't possibly reach the ninth level of courage in just one day, can you?"

  "If by your world's standards, I shouldn't say it's ninefold, but rather thirteenfold!" Lu Buqi didn't say this out loud, he just nodded: "If it's the standard that Master Wang mentioned, then I can indeed use the power of nine meridians at the same time."

  "This...!" Wang Lishou's facial muscles twitched as he exclaimed: "It's also too damn crazy!"

  Xī tú's expression was extremely vivid, and he couldn't help but think of the previous day when Lù Bù Qì had told him about his awkward feeling. He suddenly felt a cold sweat break out on his forehead. At the same time, shock, disbelief, and other astonished emotions filled Xī tú's small heart. It was known that back then, he had spent over 20 years of hard work to cultivate his bravery to the eighth level, but no matter what, he couldn't reach the final step of unblocking the meridians.

  However, Lu Buqi mastered the use of bravery in just one day and reached the highest stage of the Bravery Realm. Even if you count the half-month time it took for Lu Buqi to recover from his injuries as a form of self-consolation, Lu Buqi still managed to go from zero to ninefold bravery in just half a month, which is an unprecedented achievement.
