Chapter 18: Heartless Sword Technique
"My disciple, you have been able to perfect the sword-piercing punch, which shows that you have a very high level of understanding in the way of the sword. I have a technique here called the Heartless Sword Technique, which combines the inner strength and swordsmanship. It can be used as a follow-up technique for you after you enter the rank. This Heartless Sword Technique is not inferior to the main technique of the Seven Peaks lineage. Its characteristic is that it emphasizes understanding and neglects physique. It is difficult for those with poor understanding to get started."

The old man Zhou Buping entered the wooden house, took out a thin secret booklet and threw it to Li Qian.

The cover of the secret booklet is yellowed, and you can tell at a glance that it is quite old.

He gently let go of the cover.

The essence of Wuxin Sword Technique is to put your feelings into the sword.

The following content was obscure and difficult to understand. It seemed mysterious and full of various terms. Li Qian was completely confused.

Seeing Li Qian's puzzled expression, Zhou Buping immediately said, "Take it back first and think about it carefully. If you have any questions, come back here and ask me."

"Yes, Master."

Li Qian nodded quickly and said.

Then he left the valley and returned to the bell tower.

No one expected that after all these trips, he had become a formal disciple of the Divine Sword Sect and even became its apprentice.

After returning to the bell tower, Li Qian completed his daily bell-ringing and did not practice sword stabbing and punching. Instead, he studied the Wuxin Sword Technique.

With the inner strength skills, there is no need to practice sword, jabs and punches.

Even if you practice the sword jab to perfection, it can't change the fact that it's a basic boxing technique.

After watching for a long time, Li Qian was deeply moved. This Wuxin Sword Technique was difficult to understand, let alone practice.

In the end, he had no choice but to practice sword jabs a few times to calm down.

In the evening, after the bell rang for the last time, Li Qian went down the mountain and headed straight for the valley.

"coming."

Zhou Buping was still lying in front of the wooden door.

As he said that, he threw a brand new wooden sign to Li Qian.

"This is the official disciple ID card that your master has prepared for you. It also functions as a contribution card. If you have any contribution points, go to the Inner Gate Internal Affairs Hall to transfer them."

Zhou Buping said.

Li Qian was holding a wooden sign. It was not exactly the same as the one held by the stall owner in the black market, but there was not much difference at all.

"How much did you understand about the Wuxin Sword Technique?"

Zhou Buping asked again.

"Master, I can only understand about 10% or 20% of it."

Li Qian said with a look of shame.

"This is normal. You were born as a chores disciple and have never practiced internal skills. You don't understand many of the terms and specific secret words in internal skills."

Zhou Buping was not surprised.

Then, he began to explain the professional knowledge of internal power to Li Qian.

This is the benefit of having a master.

Can teach step by step.

If Li Qian were left to figure it out on his own, not only would it be time-consuming and laborious, but there was also the possibility that problems would arise during his practice.

The practice of internal energy is not any different from simple boxing practice. The slightest mistake may lead to loss of control of internal energy and even possession of the body.

With Zhou Buping's explanation, Li Qian gained a deep understanding of the Wuxin Sword Technique.

When leaving, Zhou Buping threw him another cloth bag.

Inside were the monthly salary and supplies for the direct disciples, a bottle of Qi and Blood Pills, a bottle of Soul-Nourishing Pills, and a pound of exotic beast jerky.

In addition, Zhou Buping also gave Li Qian a sword.

"Whether it's the Qi and Blood Pill or the Soul-Nourishing Pill, it's best to take one pill every two days, taking them in turns. Only when you have a breakthrough, can you take more."

Zhou Buping said.

The treatment of formal disciples is very different from that of disciples who are taught directly by a master.

What was distributed were Qi and Blood Pills, but their effects could not be compared with Qi and Blood Dan.

Not to mention elixirs like the Yunshen Pill that can restore the spirit, which formal disciples do not have.

As for the meat jerky of exotic beasts, formal disciples are only allowed two taels per month.

Two bottles of medicinal pills and a pound of exotic beast jerky, most of which must have been subsidized by the master.

This is something that formal disciples do not have.

"Thank you, Master."

Li Qian said quickly. After returning to the bell tower, Li Qian began to prepare for the entry of Wuxin Sword Technique.

He repeatedly pondered the contents of the internal energy method until he had no doubts. Then he sat cross-legged and began to mobilize his internal energy according to the contents of the method.

When practicing sword and jab, the internal energy is operated passively.

The internal skills, on the other hand, are about actively circulating the internal energy.

At the beginning, Li Qian was unable to concentrate, which made it difficult to accurately control his internal energy, and his internal energy always ran wild.

So he mobilized the sacrificial bell, and it rang continuously.

In an instant, he felt his spirit lifted, and the internal energy that was originally difficult to control accurately seemed to become gentle and obedient, and under his control, it began to flow along specific meridians.

After one big circulation, the internal energy returns to the Dantian Qi sea.

call!
He let out a long breath and looked surprised.

The internal skills are just different.

It can be seen just from the increase in internal energy.

Suddenly, he had an idea and summoned the system interface to check the latest information.

Host: Li Qian.

Cultivation: Acquired (first level 58/100).

Sacrificial vessel: Chen Bell (Treasure 802/1000).

Martial arts: sword, stab and fist (perfect), Wuxin sword technique (entry level).

"A big cycle actually adds one step to the progress?"

Li Qian looked surprised.

When I was practicing sword jabs before, it would take two days to make one progress.

However, practicing the Wuxin Sword Technique consumes a lot of energy, blood, and spirit. After just completing one big circulation, he felt a sense of energy loss and mental fatigue.

No wonder the practice of internal energy requires the cooperation of elixirs.

Now that he had gotten started, he didn't continue practicing.

the next morning.

Li Qian rang the Chen bell.

After the bell rang, he felt comfortable all over and the internal energy in his body became extremely active.

He immediately sat cross-legged and began to practice the Wuxin Sword Technique.

After completing a big cycle, Li Qian felt relaxed all over, refreshed, without any feeling of tiredness at all.

"The first bell ring of the day has the best effect. The invisible energy contained in the bell can greatly replenish qi, blood and spirit."

Li Qian opened his eyes and smiled.

Therefore, his daily practice is most effective after the first bell rings.

The effect of ringing the bell a few times later will be much worse.

As for not striking the bell, but directly driving the Chen Bell and creating the bell sound in the mind, the effect is the worst.

Moreover, the farther away from the Chen Bell, the worse the sound produced will be.

Li Qian did not practice anymore.

Because the effect of the first bell has worn off.

He should wait until the bell rings at the hour of Chen to practice, as the effect will be better.

In this way, at the end of the day, Li Qian practiced five times and completed five big cycles, which improved his first level of acquired cultivation by five points.

Originally, it would take two days to make some progress in practicing sword and jab.

But now, by practicing the Wuxin Sword Technique, I can make five points of progress a day, and my efficiency has increased tenfold.

Although it was related to the fact that he took a Qi and Blood Pill, it also showed that his internal strength was so strong that it was far beyond the reach of basic boxing techniques like sword and piercing.

As for the Soul-Enhancing Pill, Li Qian found that it was not necessary to use it for the time being.

The sound of the Chen bell can eliminate the mental fatigue caused by spiritual practice.

It was a pity that his energy and blood could not keep up. He was confident that he could practice the Wuxin Sword Technique a few more times.

He felt sad in his heart. If Yi Chong hadn't come to threaten him, he would have never planned to become a formal disciple. How could he have such a good thing now?
