However, with the nutritious energy liquid and a month of physical training, Xiao Wangchao grew rapidly and was already 1.5 meters tall at the age of six.
He is expected to reach 1.7 meters tall by the age of seven, far exceeding his peers.
As his physique grew, his bone structure rapidly solidified, allowing him to practice martial arts and deadly moves. Li Dao also began to teach him knowledge related to martial arts.
Things like traditional Chinese medicine, martial arts theory, and lists of martial arts masters are all required courses for martial arts masters.
Learning Traditional Chinese Medicine can help you better understand the human body and deliver the most effective blow.
Learning the theory of boxing makes it easier to know the techniques of boxers, thus achieving the effect of training before a battle.
As for the list of boxers, learning about the deeds of various famous boxers can give us some insight into their spirit at that time.
The Long March begins with a single step!
Chapter 97 A Flawed Theory! (Please vote with monthly tickets!)
There was a small grove of trees in the backyard, where two figures, one large and one small, were standing.
"Little Wang Chao, the snake is entwined, while the dragon, being superior, is flexible, unpredictable, and ever-changing. Although the cat is flexible and unpredictable, the tiger, being superior, is fierce and domineering..." Li Dao explained as he watched Little Wang Chao practice his boxing.
Dragon Tiger Fist originated from some concepts of Dragon Tiger Tai Chi Chuan and Dragon Tiger Body Refining Exercise, and was created by Li Dao by combining his own interpretation of Yin and Yang principles with his understanding of dragon and tiger.
However, since it was intended for Xiao Wangchao to build a foundation for his training, the martial arts techniques were not very advanced and were relatively easy to understand.
Xiao Wang is exceptionally quick-witted and perceptive, which makes understanding things much easier for him. If it were someone else, probably no one would have that kind of talent.
"Dragon Tiger Fist." As Xiao Wangchao practiced the Dragon Tiger Fist, he pondered the meaning behind his master's words and suddenly felt a sense of mystery. His fist techniques gradually became more agile and tricky, yet also powerful and fierce.
Li Dao watched from the sidelines and, seeing that Xiao Wangchao's boxing technique had changed, stopped explaining the essentials of the technique.
You can learn boxing techniques, but you can't just copy them blindly. The essence I just described is just his own understanding of boxing.
There are countless styles of boxing, and it's not about being the strongest; it varies from person to person.
Xiao Wang possesses a touch of spirituality in his exceptional comprehension; a brief explanation is sufficient, but further understanding will depend on his own efforts.
Li Dao turned and left the grove, returning to the villa.
"You're back?" Angel Yan sat on the soft sofa, her fingers fiddling with something, probably adjusting some dark dimension data or communicating with someone.
"Hmm, the Heavenly King hasn't come out yet?" Li Dao nodded, then asked.
The villa has three floors: the first floor is the living room, the second floor is the bedroom, and the third floor is He Xi's research room.
Since He Xi said she had an inspiration half a month ago, she has gone into her private research room on the third floor and hasn't come out yet.
"No, I guess he's working on some technological genes. By the way, you seem quite concerned about the Celestial King. When will you start showing some concern for me too?" Angel Yan waved her hand to close the dark database, a smile playing on her lips as she looked at Li Dao.
"You're perfectly fine, why would you need my concern?" Li Dao chuckled.
"I really need your care to soothe my mind and body," Angel Yan said with a glint in her eyes and a mischievous smile on her lips.
Li Dao remained silent and did not answer.
Because he didn't know how to answer. Should he say, "Come to my room tonight and I'll take good care of you?"? He'd probably be met with a flaming sword at his neck.
However, after spending a month together, their relationship has become ambiguous yet not quite ambiguous. Li Dao doesn't know how to take the initiative, and Angel Yan is also a Yun Si Ji.
Forget it, let's just leave it at that. It's better to let things develop naturally than to force things on someone, right?
Of course, He Xi's little slut is a different story.
Li Dao went upstairs to his room, took off his shoes, and sat cross-legged on the bed.
"After a month of exploration and refinement, my physical body is strong enough and my theory is becoming more and more perfect, but I still feel that there is a deviation in the path."
"Although I did not die in the fantasy world, the path I choose determines the extent of my future achievements. If my theory is wrong, it will be a great loss."
"The failure of the Triple Rebirth technique lies in its low theoretical feasibility. It has entered a dead end. Without extraordinary talents, it is basically hopeless to open up a new path."
Li Dao pondered and calculated in his heart.
This feeling is not good. If the theory is wrong, then the feasibility of the road is very low, and this is a matter of life and death.
Similarly, it also relates to the upper limit of future paths. Creating a self-made system is so troublesome. Determining the cause and effect can easily lead to deviations that could result in no way forward.
No matter how exceptionally gifted he is, he cannot succeed.
Because this path itself is wrong!
"It seems I need to continue trying, or perhaps deny the results of the past month and re-examine my own path..." Li Dao made his decision and his consciousness directly entered the fantasy world.
Since he sensed the strangeness of the theory, it proved that there were errors in the subsequent theories themselves. Moreover, since it involved fundamental issues, he could not afford to ignore it.
A fantasy world.
Li Dao appeared in the courtyard of the Taoist temple, familiar yet strange. Every flower and blade of grass, the stone table and stone stools, and the peach trees planted in the courtyard were now full of bright and juicy peaches.
"Since it is about assembling the Three Elixir, then what are the Three Elixir?" Li Dao chose to re-examine his own path, wanting to re-understand it from the very beginning.
"In ancient times, there were cultivators who refined their breath and stored it in a elixir, cleansing their internal organs and abstaining from grains. Like immortals, they consumed breath and attained enlightenment, able to go without food for three meals a day without feeling hungry..."
"The human body is divided into three dantians: the upper dantian is the residence of the spirit, the middle dantian is the residence of the qi, and the lower dantian is the residence of the essence. Essence transforms into qi, and qi transforms into spirit... forming the three dantians, forming the three dantians..."
As Li Dao pondered the knowledge related to the memory palace, he gradually gained new insights and found a new path, his eyes shining brighter and brighter.
Until Li Dao's eyes shone as brightly as day, and his voice rang out from near to far: "So that's how it is, so that's how it is... The theory is wrong, my theory is wrong."
"The Three Elixir is not just about gathering the dantian; it also requires using the extraordinary meridians and acupoints of the human body as a blueprint to gather the complete hub of the human body and form an impenetrable network within the body."
"So it's not that my physical body is weak, but that although my spirit and qi are strong, my essence is as vigorous as yang, which directly leads to a complete imbalance of essence, qi and spirit, and the conditions are not sufficient to form the three elixir."
Li Dao examined his internal body and found that, as he had suspected, his blood essence surged like a river, and although there was qi within it, it was not strong enough due to its fluctuating nature.
Although the mind can control the body and most cells, it cannot achieve complete understanding or perfect insight.
"However, I can sense that my essence has reached its current limit, while my spirit and qi still have much room for improvement. Once the three reach theoretical perfection, I should be able to form the three elixirs," Li Dao guessed.
This theory is now almost perfectly aligned with the path of constructing the Three Elixir, and the subsequent transformation of Qi into the Three Pure Ones may also be realized within this conjecture.
Using the meridians as bridges and acupoints as granaries, energy is supplied to the three dantians for strengthening. At the same time, the three dantians purify this energy and then feed back to strengthen the meridians and acupoints, forming a mutually reinforcing situation.
This is the initial step in the process of small cycles building up into a large cycle system.
Li Dao's eyes shone brightly as he pondered and his mind raced like a carp leaping over the dragon gate. Only when this new theory became self-consistent with his initial conjecture did he gradually fall silent and cease his deductions.
In conclusion, this theory aligns well with the original concept.
"Then the next step is to try it out, first raise your spirit and energy to their maximum."
After saying that, Li Dao suddenly felt his mind was incredibly clear, and he could perfectly control all the cells in his body, even being able to see the structure of each cell internally.
At the same time, he felt a cool sensation in his chest, and a mysterious energy filled his entire middle dantian, making him feel light and ethereal, like a mortal ascending to immortality.
"Very good, begin the process of forming the three elixir!" Li Dao felt a sense of perfection welling up within him, knowing that his essence, energy, and spirit had reached their limit.
So he immediately began to guide the upper, middle and lower dantian, trying to build a bridge between the three in the middle, so that essence, energy and spirit could be integrated into qi.
"boom!!"
However, when the bridge, which existed in the void, was erected, before Li Dao could even show a smile, the next second, his entire body exploded into a bloody mist, filling the courtyard of the Taoist temple.
He failed!
"Although my essence, energy, and spirit are perfectly balanced, it is probably because the upper, middle, and lower dantian are directly connected that they cannot form a commonality, which ultimately leads to the disorder of essence, energy, and spirit and the destruction of the physical body."
Li Dao was revived and, based on his previous sensations, directly deduced the test results.
"Again."
"boom!!"
"..."
Chapter 98 Longevity Through Qi Consumption! (Please vote with monthly tickets!)
After countless attempts, when Li Dao woke up from his fantasy world, he felt a little dazed, and at the same time, the incomparable clarity in his mind and the mysterious energy in his chest disappeared.
This feeling is like a celestial being who was once high above the clouds suddenly becoming a mortal who has fallen to the mortal world, causing one's emotions to fluctuate and leaving one feeling lost and melancholy.
Even someone as content as Li Dao felt this way upon waking, but his mind returned to normal in the blink of an eye.
“Fantasy worlds can serve as a cheat code for exploring different paths, but one must never become addicted to them. Otherwise, no matter how perfect and flawless one’s Dao heart is, it will turn back due to fluctuations in one’s state of mind,” Li Dao thought to himself.
The state of mind is the realm of the soul. To borrow the words of the Star River Emperor, if one does not reach a state of constant tranquility, excessive fluctuations in the state of mind will cause feelings of joy and sorrow, and ultimately lead to a regression in the realm of the soul.
Even those who have attained great samadhi but have not yet entered into constant samadhi are still subject to the same principle!
He didn't know how long he had slept, but when he woke up, it was already bright outside the window. However, Li Dao knew that it was noon the next day.
I slept from noon yesterday until noon today, a full day.
Li Dao withdrew his gaze, put on his shoes, and went downstairs.
There was no one in the living room, but some noises came from the backyard, including Xiao Wangchao's panting, which meant he was probably boxing.
Li Dao didn't disturb them, and left the villa directly, passing through the bustling streets, and unknowingly arrived at the beach.
The coastline has railings, below which lies a golden sandy beach where men, women, children, and children are playing—it's the perfect season for swimming in the hot weather.
However, it is now September, autumn has arrived, and although the heat is still there, there is a touch of autumn coolness.
Li Dao gazed at the boundless blue sea, watching the tides rise and fall, the waves crashing against the rocks. His eyes suddenly lit up, and his thoughts surged like a raging tide.
Countless pieces of knowledge flowed through his heart like a gentle stream, stirring his soul. Each character and word flashed by and then fell silent, captivating him completely.
"The ocean is like the lungs and heart of a person. The ebb and flow of the tides wash away the filth. It feeds on air and lives as long as a god. Those who feed on air are divine and live long..."
Li Dao's inspiration burst forth, and knowledge, like a burning spark, gradually coalesced into a thin book.
The book cover is engraved with elegant, flowing characters—"The Book of Qi"!
The opening statement reads: "Those who nourish qi will live as long as gods!"
Li Dao's eyes returned to normal, and he roughly considered the Qi-Eating Chapter as a cultivation method for cultivating Qi.
Although the cultivation progress is slow, it can cleanse impurities like the ocean, allowing one to cultivate the energy of nature, nourish the body and mind, and refine one's spirit.
Li Dao glanced at the waves again, then turned and left.
Li Dao returned along the same route he had come from, without practicing the Qi-absorbing technique.
The city's pollution is too heavy, making it unsuitable for cultivation. Even if one does cultivate, the results will be less effective and it will easily pollute one's own purity.
