Martial Arts Crossover: That night, Huang Rong descended from the sky.

Chapter 158: Innate Formless Sword Qi

Li Qiushui sat in the armchair, her eyes lifeless, like a salted fish that had lost its dreams.

Wang Yuyan kept her company, talking to her and occasionally pouring tea and water. This young lady had never done such a thing before and seemed clumsy.

Perhaps because of her relationship with her mother and father, she was much closer to this maternal grandmother than to her father, Duan Zhengchun, and her "brother," Duan Yu.

Seeing Li Ping approach, Li Qiushui didn't even blink, and simply said, "You've come to laugh at this old woman?"

This was the first time Li Qiushui had ever referred to herself as an old woman.

Li Ping smiled and said, "Sister Li, you're so young and beautiful, how could you be old?"

Finally, Li Qiushui smiled and said, "You smooth-talking brat, I wonder how many pretty girls will fall for your tricks in the future."

"You don't come here unless you have a reason. Just say what you need."

Li Ping voiced his question: "Why can't one recover their internal energy after it's been absorbed by the Northern Darkness Divine Art? Why can Duan Yu absorb other people's internal energy and still have an inexhaustible supply of true energy without any cultivation?"

"That doesn't make any sense."

Li Qiushui looked at Li Ping with a half-smile: "Where did you get your internal energy from?"

Li Ping said, "Meditation, visualization, breathing exercises, guiding the flow of qi and blood, and then, then it comes..."

Li Qiushui laughed so hard she almost choked, pointing at Li Ping and saying, "Your theoretical knowledge is a complete mess, how did you even develop this martial arts skill?"

Li Ping was not ashamed at all: "I just need to practice. Rong'er is enough to teach me."

Li Qiushui said irritably, "You're just here to annoy me, aren't you?"

Then, with a hint of envy in his voice, he said, "Huang Rong is truly lucky to have met someone like you who believes in her wholeheartedly."

How many men are willing to say to others that their entire success comes from their woman?

Li Ping smiled and said, "Meeting Rong'er is the greatest blessing I've ever had in my life."

Li Qiushui said, "Your Rong'er isn't even in here, this is so cheesy! Simply put, where does your internal energy come from?"

"Fine, I'll just tell you the answer directly, and put it in simpler terms."

"Essence, Qi, Spirit, and Man are the Three Treasures."

"The three are inherently closely connected: essence can transform into qi, qi can generate essence, essence and qi can transform into spirit, and spirit governs essence and qi."

"Semen is divided into innate essence and acquired essence."

"Among them, the innate essence, inherited from the parents, is the original essence that one is born with. It is the origin of life and the most primitive life force, which can also be called the primordial essence."

"The essence acquired after birth comes from the food we eat, which is used to nourish our bodies and replenish the essence innately."

"The so-called 'qi' refers not only to the air you breathe, but also to the things that drive our bodies to function."

"Through visualization and breathing exercises, we absorb the essence acquired after birth and strengthen our 'qi,' thus forming internal strength, also known as true qi."

"When the Northern Darkness Divine Art absorbs the true energy of others, it also absorbs their innate essence, that is, their primordial essence..."

"If one's innate essence is severely depleted and damaged, one will naturally be unable to cultivate true qi."

"Hehe, once you reach the Innate Realm, you can directly refine Innate Essence, so it will become increasingly difficult to have children after reaching the Innate Realm. You'd better hurry up..."

"The Northern Darkness Divine Art stores Qi in the chest and directs primordial essence to the five internal organs and the entire body, which will eventually be absorbed by the body and return to oneself."

"Although Duan Yu doesn't actively practice Qi cultivation, he subconsciously circulates Qi after practicing the Beiming Divine Art. His Yuan Jing is strong, so Qi cultivation is naturally easy for him. Moreover, Yu Yan said that he often uses the Lingbo Weibu, which is actually a form of Qi cultivation."

"The Northern Darkness Divine Art is inherently a profound mental cultivation method, and it wasn't originally created specifically to absorb other people's internal energy. Never mind, let's not talk about that."

"Anyway, absorbing too much other primordial essence won't do you any good. Don't understand the method of transforming qi, but prefer fantasy novels? Click to enter your exclusive library! The conflict between different types of true qi is even more painful. Otherwise, wouldn't your sister have been invincible long ago after absorbing the essence of hundreds or thousands of people?"

"Duan Yu's inability to master the Qi Transformation Technique to avoid this conflict only shows that the Six Meridians Divine Sword has some merit!"

"The key to all of this lies in developing the wonderful uses of the Tanzhong acupoint."

"The Tanzhong acupoint is the meeting point of Qi in the human body, and it is the key point where the Qi of the whole body gathers."

"The human body has three dantian: upper, middle, and lower. The cultivation of the upper dantian is almost lost. Zhang Sanfeng's revival of upper dantian cultivation is quite remarkable. As for the cultivation of the middle dantian, apart from my Xiaoyao Sect, very few people have even scratched the surface..."

"Today, I will impart it all to you."

After hearing Li Qiushui's story, Li Ping left in high spirits.

Li Qiushui said, "Look how good this guy is at charming girls. If you fall for him, you're in for trouble."

Wang Yuyan blushed: "I didn't..."

Li Qiushui said, "Then he must like you, otherwise why would he spare my life on the stage and treat me with such courtesy?"

Wang Yuyan was in utter confusion. Could it be that Master Li really likes me? This... this...

Recalling Li Ping's heroic figure on the ring and the help he had given her, she felt her heart pounding wildly...

Wang Yuyan's voice was so soft it was almost inaudible: "I only like my cousin..."

Li Qiushui laughed loudly: "Is that the cousin you mentioned who just wanders around the martial arts world all day, dreaming of restoring the Great Yan Dynasty?"

"A complete clown, is this how the world is fought?"

……

"Everyone, I just went to see Senior Li Qiushui and asked her some questions about the Northern Darkness Divine Art..."

He then recounted what he had heard, only to be met with amused looks from the crowd.

You don't even know such basic things, yet you want to present them to us like they're a treasure?

However, the Xiaoyao School's development of the Tanzhong acupoint is indeed unique!

At this moment, Yaoyue said, "You can't practice the Northern Darkness Divine Art, and neither can we, but the Free and Unfettered Sect does have some unique insights into the development of the Dantian in the Tanzhong acupoint..."

"However, Rong'er just developed a new sword technique with us. Would you like to take a look?"

Li Ping got excited as soon as he heard this. He said, "You're talking to me about theories and stuff, but I'm still confused. When it comes to fighting, even Yaoyue might not have as much experience as me."

After all, Yaoyue was invincible from the moment she debuted, and there were very few people in the martial arts world who dared to fight her.

Li Ping said, "Come on..."

When Yaoyue pressed her thumb, Li Ping thought it was the Six Meridians Divine Sword, but unexpectedly a sword beam was generated and rushed towards him.

Li Ping focused intently, his five fingers pulsating with power, ready to grab the sword light. He wanted to see just how strong this sword light was, since he hadn't even been able to block it with his sword when facing Zhuo Bufan.

Yaoyue cursed, "This guy is really too reckless. Is Zhuo Bufan's sword aura the same as mine?"

But she also knew that this was Li Ping's idea to give it a try, so she held back a bit.

The sword light and the claw force intertwined, shattering Li Ping's claw force and causing his palm to ache as if it were being torn apart.

But the next moment, Yaoyue's sword energy suddenly disappeared.

Li Ping was momentarily stunned, and the sword energy passed right past his waist.

Huang Rong laughed and said, "Combining the Six Meridians Divine Sword with the sword light to make the Six Meridians Divine Sword tangible and substantial is extremely difficult, and it cannot be done now."

"However, utilizing the same characteristics as the Six Meridians Divine Sword to transform sword energy into both tangible and intangible forms is not that difficult!"

Li Ping shook his hand and laughed, "Indeed impressive! The transformation between tangible and intangible is also a kind of change between reality and illusion. How about we call this sword technique 'Innate Formless Sword Qi'?"

Soon, darkness fell, and Li Ping, having made arrangements with his guests, began the banquet…
