Chapter 15 Cultivation
Favourite little darlings, please support Xiao Long more, just been bombed by Ju Hua, the new book ranking dropped from eighth to ninth, waaah, so painful!
Zhang Cheng sat on the bed, staring at the empty room. If it weren't for the book titled "Baicao Jing" left by Dan Chenzi in his hand, as well as the two genuine internal skills in his mind, and his own body that had already been cured, he would have thought that everything that had happened during this period was just a dream.
"I really didn't expect to survive like this again. Alright, since I won't die, then I must do something earth-shattering and make the gods cry. Otherwise, it would be too ungrateful for heaven's arrangement." Zhang Cheng added another sentence, saying: "Heavenly Father, from today on, you are my adoptive father, I love you..."
After saying "I love you", Zhang Cheng felt his head spinning and then fell into a daze...
He had received the baptism of two powerful techniques, and with Dan Chenzi's rescue, he had endured such a long period of suffering. Even if Zhang Cheng's soul strength was extraordinary, it had reached its limit, so he fainted.
It wasn't until the next day at noon that Zhang Cheng slowly came to, but after he woke up, he felt his head was extremely heavy, as if he had gotten drunk the night before, and it was all fuzzy, with a faint pain.
She rubbed her eyes, sat up, and her palm happened to touch that "Hundred Herb Classic". Zhang Cheng picked it up with his hand and flipped through a few pages, only to feel a splitting headache.
Then Zhang Cheng put it aside, sat cross-legged, clasped his hands in front of his chest, and formed the first seal of the Mijiao Daxinyin - the Mingwang Yin.
At the same time, imagine a Buddha image in your mind, and with both hands slowly making the following pair of hand gestures to slowly take shape.
After a while, Zhang Chengcai slowly opened his eyes, releasing his hands and exhaling a mouthful of stale air, along with the fatigue from yesterday.
At this moment, he feels extremely comfortable. The dizziness in his brain has disappeared without a trace, and his body no longer feels stuffy and heavy as before. This feeling is really great.
Moreover, he could also vaguely feel that his stagnant "Mi Zong Da Shou Yin" had also made some progress at this time, although not much, but it gave Zhang Cheng a glimmer of hope.
At the same time, after experiencing this period of verification, he finally understood that his "Mahamudra" was the supreme secret for cultivating the soul.
Moreover, he also vaguely felt that the might of this technique seemed to be more than that, and there should be some other abilities, only temporarily not yet excavated.
Shaking his head, he threw out the miscellaneous thoughts in his mind. Since he couldn't think of it, then he wouldn't think about it anymore.
Zhang Cheng felt his brand new body once again, the shadow of death was swept away, and his whole body and mind relaxed with it. He took a deep breath, and suddenly, he felt that the air in this world seemed to have become fresher along with the recovery of his body.
Then he got out of bed, quickly put on his clothes, ran to the martial arts arena and ran a dozen laps. Although he was somewhat tired, he didn't feel short of breath at all.
"This is the life I wanted." Without the burden of his body, Zhang Cheng was finally completely liberated.
In the following days, Zhang Cheng almost exercised his body every day, while practicing the "Xuanmen Tuna Art" left to him by Dan Chenzi.
With the detailed annotations of Dan Dust, plus his understanding of the acupoints and meridians from his past life, he was able to start practicing extremely quickly. Almost as soon as that night, he had already produced internal energy.
In the past, Zhang Fang also taught Zhang Cheng a period of time their family's Tu Na Gong Fa, but due to Zhang Cheng's physical condition, they had no choice but to give up in the end.
However, with Zhang Cheng's intelligence and his almost unforgettable skills, he also had some vague understanding of cultivation.
The Zhang family's Tu Na Gong method is achieved by adjusting breathing, stimulating the potential within the body, thereby producing internal energy.
This is very important because in order to cultivate high-level martial arts, one must feel the existence of Qi, which is also known as the sensation of Qi.
Generally speaking, even for a talented person with exceptional abilities, it takes a long period of accumulation to perceive the existence of "qi".
Let's take Zhang Hu for example, he started practicing Qigong at the age of six, but it wasn't until he was eight that he felt the Qi sensation and entered the realm of a warrior, which took him two whole years.
But even so, it's still a pretty fast speed. Even Zhang Jia's first-rate talent, Zhang Cheng's older brother Zhang Long, took a whole year and a half to produce his air sense.
There are still some people who can't even produce a sound in their entire lives, and finally, they can only give up on martial arts and live an ordinary life.
From this, we can imagine the importance and difficulty of this step.
But he himself only spent one night, and it's probably unbelievable to say that no one would believe him, thinking he was bragging, after all, this speed is really a bit too incredible.
However, he was able to produce a rough guess as to why he could feel the energy so quickly. First of all, the "Xuānmén Tǔnà Jì" (Mysterious Gate Breathing Technique) is more advanced than ordinary breathing exercises, making it easier for practitioners to feel the energy.
Secondly, his soul is stronger than that of ordinary people, so he feels more keenly and can perceive changes that ordinary people cannot.
Thanks to Dan Chenzi's previous help in washing his marrow and cutting his bones, the impurities in his body had almost all been eliminated, and his tendons and veins had become even more spacious.
So, due to all these reasons, he made rapid progress. Excited at the same time, Zhang Cheng was also very grateful for everything Dan Chenzi had done for him.
After these few days of cultivation, Zhang Cheng's first feeling was that his strength was greater than before. In the past, he could only walk around the martial arts arena for one circle and would be panting heavily. Now, he can run around the martial arts arena for ten circles without even breaking a sweat.
However, in order to prevent others from prying, he still pretended to be weak and frail. After all, in the Zhang family, Shaoyang City, and even the Xia country, there were many people who envied him.
When you're down on your luck, they might not give you a second glance, but if you suddenly turn your fortunes around, they'll definitely take notice.
By then, his situation will also become extremely tense, and he will be in danger of losing his life at any time.
However, even if he pretended that nothing had changed much from before, he was still discovered. Of course, it wasn't someone else who discovered him, but rather Zhang Cheng's father, Zhang Fang, and his sister, Zhang Xin.
Of course, if it weren't for Zhang Xin taking care of him and also because Zhang Fang used to input true energy into him once a month, they probably wouldn't have noticed the change in Zhang Cheng.
Finally, under Zhang Fang's repeated questioning, Zhang Cheng had no choice but to tell Zhang Fang about Dan Chenzi's affairs and also handed over the "Dan Tian Tu Na Gong" to him.
He heard that his son not only recovered physically, but also gained the favor of the immortal master and obtained a more advanced qigong method than the original Zhang family's tuina method, which made him even more excited.
But under Zhang Cheng's request, he kept this matter secret to prevent any accidents. Even if it was the "Dan Tian Tu Na Gong", Zhang Fang decided not to make it public to the family for the time being and only secretly passed it on to Zhang Xin.
