Chapter 318 The Realm
According to Qin Feng, the Iron Arm Fist he practices originated from the Shaolin Beidou Magic Kung Fu. After being improved by his ancestors, it became the Iron Arm Fist today. The boxing technique is fierce and based on a strong physique, training both arms and legs.
Like an iron whip, if you practice to a certain extent, you can break stones and gold with your bare hands.
I had heard Zhou Tong explain some foreign martial arts before, and I also learned a little about it from Xiao Nizi's letter, but after listening to Qin Feng's explanation, Lu Shanmin had a deeper understanding of foreign martial arts or Chinese martial arts.
Since ancient times, China has been a country of martial arts. Even though many martial arts have been lost today, Chinese martial arts are still famous all over the world.
Those street performers can crush rocks on their chests and thrust iron spears into their throats. Qin Feng said that those people only practice the lowest level of horizontal kung fu or the lowest level of hard qigong.
A true master, after practicing to the extreme, can fly over cliffs and walls, break rocks and cut gold with his bare hands, and can even withstand ordinary pistol bullets. These are not myths. He said that his ancestors were so strong that musket bullets could not penetrate them at all.
his body.
According to Qin Feng, according to the saying passed down from their ancestors, from low to high, the foreign boxing can be divided into three realms: exchanging force, moving mountains, and golden body.
In the power exchange stage, martial arts practitioners must gradually eliminate all the clumsy strength in their bodies and replace it with fierce strength through repeated practice of various basic exercises.
Moving Mountains, as the name suggests, has the power to move mountains. It can train the muscle density of the whole body to the extreme, can burst out extremely terrifying power, and has superior self-defense. Golden bell shields and iron cloth shirts are included in this category. This realm can be achieved step by step.
Divided into early, middle and late stages, the body's muscle density gradually increases.
External boxing is easy to master quickly, but problems will arise if you go back to the middle stage of moving mountains. Blindly pursuing strong strength can easily cause damage to the body, and it will definitely be difficult to enter a higher realm. Laozi said:'
A strong soldier will be destroyed, a strong tree will be destroyed. This is the truth. Many masters of external boxing are sick and disabled in old age. This is why the life span of masters of external boxing is much shorter than that of masters of internal boxing.
As for the Golden Body Realm, it is the highest realm of foreign boxing and is also a legendary realm. Qin Feng said that he has never heard of anyone who can reach this realm. His ancestors only reached the peak of the Mountain Moving Realm.
He has not broken through the last level. If he has, he can only be sure that the founder of Waijiaquan, Patriarch Bodhidharma, has reached this level.
Qin Feng said that foreign boxing is easy to achieve quickly. In fact, it only targets the realm before the middle stage of moving mountains. After the middle stage of moving mountains, it is difficult to make even an inch of progress. Because the human body has its limits, and it needs to be broken layer by layer.
The limit is harder than reaching the sky.
As for the changes in strength that can occur when reaching the golden body state, Qin Feng is not sure. He just heard from the old seniors in the village that the strength will be greater, the various parts of the body will be more harmonious, and the strength will be endless. According to
They speculated that reaching the late stage of the Golden Body Realm should be able to repair the hidden dangers left by the body in the Moving Mountain Realm, because the closer the external boxing master is to the peak of the Moving Mountain Realm, the greater the hidden dangers of the body.
They were all ill and died before the age of sixty. However, Patriarch Bodhidharma, as the founder of Waijiaquan, lived for more than 150 years. It can be seen that after entering the Golden Body Realm, he can repair the damage left on the body after the middle stage of Moving Mountain Realm.
Hidden danger.
Lu Shanmin also asked some questions about internal boxing, but Qin Feng didn't know very clearly. Although his ancestor was a hall leader of the Tiandihui, he was also the only practitioner of external boxing. Most of the Tiandihui were
A practitioner of Neijiaquan.
His ancestors must have known a lot about internal martial arts, but after all, after two or three hundred years, only a few words had been passed down to his generation.
According to Qin Feng, Neijiaquan is also divided into three major realms, exchanging Qi, changing marrow, and transforming Qi.
The ventilation stage is similar to that of Xiaoyi in Waijiaquan. It also requires repeated practice of various basic skills and martial arts. The difference is that it requires breathing in and out to replace the turbid air in the body with the fresh air in nature.
In the early stage of the Yi Marrow Realm, one needs to gradually develop the true energy in the Dantian and then use the true energy to create the internal energy. In the middle and later stages, the internal energy is trained to the point of being soft and smooth.
As for what the Qi Transformation Realm is about, I don’t know at all. It is also a legendary realm. Inner boxing generally worships Zhang Sanfeng as its ancestor. I guess only he knows what it is about.
As for the advantages and disadvantages of external boxing and internal boxing, for thousands of years, there has never been a conclusion.
But the difference between them is everyone’s consensus. The first two realms of external boxing are easier and faster to reach than inner boxing. If the practitioner is talented and willing to endure hardship, it is not a big problem to reach the early stage of moving mountains within ten years.
, of course, the premise is that this person is obsessed with practicing martial arts and ignores common things.
Therefore, since ancient times, most of the generals and soldiers in the army have practiced Waijiaquan, which is easy to master and very practical. If two people practice Waijiaquan and Neijiaquan respectively, within ten years, Waijiaquan can completely defeat them.
Suppress the person who practices Neijiaquan.
The shortcomings of Waijiaquan are also very obvious. After reaching the middle stage of Moving Mountain Realm, it will begin to backfire on the body. After the age of forty or fifty, the hidden dangers of the body will gradually appear, and it will be difficult to reach the level of the legendary golden sword throughout life.
This is also the reason why ancient military commanders, especially those who are good at martial arts, rarely have long lifespans.
On the other hand, the progress of each stage of internal martial arts is very slow. Although there is still only one person in ten thousand who can reach the realm of Qi transformation, it is still much easier than the external martial arts to reach the golden body realm. Mainly because of the internal martial arts.
Boxing is not only harmless to the body, but also prolongs life. In ancient times, there were many internal boxing masters who lived to be over a hundred years old, so those who practiced internal boxing also had more time to climb to the extreme level.
According to Qin Feng, there is another obvious advantage and disadvantage between the external boxing moving mountain state and all the states before the internal boxing Yimui state. At the same level, the external boxing practitioners can completely defeat the internal boxing.
Practitioners, some external boxing masters can even leapfrog and defeat an internal boxing master.
The practice time is long, the actual effect is slow, and the inner qi boxing has very high requirements on talent. Many people practice their whole life but still cannot develop the inner qi and are stuck in the breath exchange stage.
Talented, right? Many internal boxing masters who have reached the middle stage of Yisui Realm are already in their forties or fifties, and they still cannot beat the external boxing masters who are only around thirty years old in the middle stage of Banshan Realm. Therefore, since ancient times, many in the army have
There are few shadows of internal martial arts, and more of them only exist in secular families.
In modern times, due to the emergence of thermal weapons, not many people in the military or martial arts are willing to spend a lot of time practicing martial arts to the extreme.
External boxing cannot reach the golden body state, and internal boxing cannot reach the Qi transformation state. A bullet can make the brain blossom.
Therefore, in modern times, many methods of external boxing and internal boxing have been lost, especially internal boxing. Many people have simply believed that internal boxing is just a boxing method for health and has no actual combat ability.
Therefore, according to Qin Feng's estimation, most people who practice martial arts in this era are stuck in the realm of exchanging force with external boxing and the realm of exchanging breath with internal boxing.
In Waijiaquan, one can be regarded as a master if he reaches the early stage of moving mountains. In the middle stage of moving mountains, he is already rare and can be regarded as a top master.
As for the internal boxing, most of the internal boxing has been lost now. What is even more sad is that not many people can calm down and practice it every day for decades, and they have been reduced to the point where in the eyes of the public it is just a boxing method for self-cultivation. It is estimated that they can practice
Even if you have inner energy, you are a master, but there are probably not many people who can reach the middle stage of Yi Marrow Realm.
But Lu Shanmin didn't think so. He knew that there was one person who might have reached that point, and that was Hai Dongqing. He would never forget the punch she punched that night, the punch that left him unable to fight back.
According to Qin Feng, his talent is a rare occurrence in Qinjia Village in a hundred years. He broke through the Banshan Realm three years ago and is now very close to the middle stage of the Banshan Realm. However, the closer the Waijia Quan is to the middle stage of the Banshan Realm, the faster it will be.
The advantage will become increasingly weakened. If you want to make a breakthrough later, it may not be easier than the internal boxing club.
According to Qin Feng, Lu Shanmin evaluated himself and found that he should be in the early stage of the inner boxing realm of Yiming, and physically he should have broken through the early stage of the outer boxing moving mountain realm. It was just because he had not practiced suitable boxing techniques.
It is impossible to exert the strength of this realm.
Originally, Lu Shanmin wanted to follow Qin Feng and learn his Iron Arm Fist, but when he saw Qin Feng hesitating, he realized that traditional martial arts emphasizes inheritance and cannot be passed on to others without the consent of the elders in the family.
However, Qin Feng explained to Lu Shanmin the practice method of Iron Arm Fist. Iron Arm Fist emphasizes that the hands and feet are like iron whips, and the body is like a mountain to support. He has practiced leaning on stakes since he was a child, first leaning on wooden stakes, and when his body is strong enough, that is,
To break through the mountain-moving realm, I started to rely on iron stakes, using all parts of my body to hit the bucket-sized stakes made of pure iron.
Lu Shanmin shook his head after hearing this. No wonder Qin Feng's strength and resistance to beatings were much stronger than him. He was beaten with a white wax stick, and he was beaten with iron stakes after driving wooden stakes. His whole body was as hard as iron. No wonder
So powerful. Now his body is close to the middle stage of Mountain Moving Realm. Once he breaks through, I don't know how abnormal he will be.
Lu Shanmin did not force Qin Feng to teach him Iron Arm Fist, but gradually began to think about how to incorporate elbow strikes and knee strikes into Sanda. Otherwise, according to the inertial thinking of Sanda before, if he met a master in a real fight, he would be at a disadvantage.
.
After the battle and chat with Qin Feng, Lu Shanmin's understanding of martial arts was much deeper than before. He also had a clearer understanding of the knowledge of external boxing and internal boxing.
Now, he really wanted to write a letter and ask Xiao Nizi whether his inner energy was forced into his limbs by Lao Huang's dumplings. He also wanted to ask how to solve this problem.
Let Xiao Nizi teach you some real internal boxing techniques.
