Half an hour later.
Lin Jiangnian was still sitting at the table, but his gaze gradually became hotter and his breathing became a little faster.
This Xuan Yang Heart Technique is indeed worthy of being ranked among the top-notch hearts in the martial arts world as described by the woman in red.
It really is... extremely powerful!
Just by looking at the introduction and the internal skills, you can already see that it is extraordinary.
Lin Jiangnian had also read and memorized many internal skills in Ruyi Tower, but they were all very different from the Xuanyang Skill in front of him.
The biggest feature of Xuan Yang Heart Method is its masculinity and domineering nature, which is worthy of its name.
Xuan Yang, mysterious and masculine!
The Xuan Yang Heart Method is divided into five levels. The changes between each level are different, and the gaps are huge, just like a complete transformation.
Compared to other internal skills that require great mastery before they can be effective, one can be called a master if he can reach the first level of the Xuan Yang Skill!
With a force as strong as a thousand pounds, he could split rocks with the palm of his hand!
If one could achieve the highest realm of the Xuan Yang Heart Method, their internal energy would become nearly inexhaustible, endless, profound, and long-lasting, practically invincible...
This is the true horror of Xuan Yang's Heart Method!
When masters fight, what they often compete for is endurance...whoever lasts longer will be invincible.
For a man, persistence is more important!
Lin Jiangnian's eyes were bright. He didn't aspire to reach the highest realm or become invincible. Just reaching the first level was more than enough for him to protect himself.
Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian couldn't wait to practice the mental method in front of him.
Just do it!
He slowly memorized the formula of the mental method in front of him, closed his eyes and recalled it. Then Lin Jiangnian stood up and went to the bed, sitting cross-legged in meditation, and began to breathe in and out according to the instructions of the mental method.
Lin Jiangnian had never been exposed to martial arts techniques. If it were someone else, if they didn't have the comprehension, they would probably not know where to start even if they had the techniques in hand.
However, the handwritten copy of the Xuanyang Heart Method in Lin Jiangnian's hand did provide a detailed and clear introduction to the Heart Method's mnemonics. Therefore, even if Lin Jiangnian knew nothing about it, he could still follow the instructions step by step.
As Lin Jiangnian followed the guidance of the mental method and slowly inhaled and exhaled, his body seemed to begin to change slightly.
Half an hour later.
As Lin Jiangnian continued to repeat the mantra, he felt a faint burning sensation in his lower abdomen. At the same time, a small amount of "qi" seemed to surge through his body.
The energy was very unstable and seemed like it would dissipate at any moment.
But when Lin Jiangnian tried to control this energy to slowly flow throughout his body, the originally tiny breath of "energy" seemed to have grown slightly stronger?
Feeling this change, Lin Jiangnian was overjoyed.
It really works!
Thinking of this, he continued to try to control the "qi" in his body, flowing through his tendons and veins.
From the initial unfamiliarity, which caused the Qi to dissipate time and time again, to gradually becoming more proficient... the original small "Qi" was also gradually growing stronger...
…
Dawn broke, and the morning sun slowly streamed into the room.
On the bed, Lin Jiangnian opened his eyes and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
There seemed to be a faint flash of bright light between his eyebrows.
After a sleepless night, Lin Jiangnian's spirits didn't seem to be weakened at all. He even felt a lot more relaxed. It was as if he had taken some kind of nerve-stimulating drug, and he felt refreshed.
Lin Jiangnian looked down at his palms, clenched his fists, and could clearly feel that he had more strength.
Is this the benefit brought by Xuanyang Heart Method?
Lin Jiangnian carefully experienced and felt all of this...
Last night he tried to practice the Xuan Yang Heart Method, and he practiced it for the entire night.
It wasn't until dawn that Lin Jiangnian finally managed to control that small amount of energy. However, that energy was too weak and had no effect.
However, Lin Jiangnian was not discouraged. After all, it was his first attempt, so as long as it worked, it would be good.
but……
Is this considered entry level now?
Did I practice it correctly?
Lin Jiangnian didn't dare to be careless. If he practiced martial arts incorrectly, it could lead to obsession. Therefore, he planned to find an opportunity to ask Zhiyuan for advice.
Glancing at the sky outside, which was gradually getting brighter, Lin Jiangnian stood up, opened the door and walked out.
"Your Highness?"
Outside the door, the maids who were originally preparing to serve His Highness were all stunned when they saw that His Highness had gotten up so early today.
Lin Jiangnian waved his hand and said, "Go prepare some food for this prince."
"yes."
Although he hadn't slept all night, Lin Jiangnian didn't feel tired at all. The faint burning sensation in his lower abdomen seemed to have not faded away, and his whole body was in a state of excitement.
After breakfast, Lin Jiangnian originally planned to look for Zhiyuan, but he didn’t expect Zhiyuan to come to him on her own initiative.
"You've come just in time."
Lin Jiangnian didn't waste any more words with her and just waved at her.
Zhiyuan walked closer to Lin Jiangnian: "Your Highness?"
"sit."
Lin Jiangnian pointed to the seat next to him.
The kite didn't move, and lowered its eyes.
"What are you standing there for? Come and sit down. This prince has something important to tell you!"
Lin Jiangnian urged.
Zhiyuan was silent for a moment, and after hesitating, he slowly sat down at the table beside him.
Lin Jiangnian dismissed the servants around him, and soon the two of them were left alone.
Zhiyuan glanced around casually, and there seemed to be a hint of...warning in his eyes?
However, Lin Jiangnian did not notice this. After dispersing the servants, he mentioned that when he was practicing Xuanyang Heart Method last night, he told Zhiyuan about the changes in his body.
"Am I practicing correctly?"
"Are there any sequelae?"
"Nothing's going to go wrong, is it?"
Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, then she realized why His Highness was looking for her.
She listened quietly to Lin Jiangnian's description. When she heard His Highness mention that he had already mastered the "Chi" in his body, even the usually calm Zhiyuan was a little surprised at this moment, and there seemed to be a bit of shock in her beautiful eyes.
"Your Highness, are you able to control the 'qi' in your body?" Zhiyuan couldn't help but confirm it again.
“That’s right!”
Lin Jiangnian nodded, and said with a hint of regret: "It's a pity that the energy is too weak. I feel it is useless for the time being. It's too useless..."
Zhiyuan didn't say anything, but there was a hint of deep shock in her beautiful eyes.
Nothing useful?
Too useless?
She took a few deep breaths and gradually calmed down.
Lin Jiangnian noticed the change in her expression and asked with a hint of confusion, "What's wrong?"
Zhiyuan was silent for a moment. "Your Highness, do you know how long it takes for an ordinary person to master the 'Qi'?"
Lin Jiangnian guessed: "Three or four days? Or seven or eight days?"
Zhiyuan looked at him deeply, then said calmly: "At least a few months, at most several years!"
Hearing this, Lin Jiangnian was stunned.
So long?
Is this...too different from what he imagined?
"Martial arts can be divided into internal and external aspects. The external aspect is training the muscles and bones, while the internal aspect is training the breath. This breath is precisely the most important aspect... For an ordinary person who can master that 'breath' within a month, it is already considered a good talent. Most people will probably need several months to fully master it, even a prince..."
As if thinking of something, Zhiyuan glanced at him again, then slowly said: "Even the prince took three days to master that 'qi', Your Highness only took one night..."
In just one night, he was able to skillfully control that 'energy'?
Even though she knew that His Highness had inherited the prince's martial arts talent, such an amazing talent still made her a little shocked and surprised.
Lin Jiangnian was also stunned. He looked into Zhiyuan's beautiful eyes that were full of shock and surprise. As their eyes met, Lin Jiangnian blinked and realized something.
"If you put it that way..."
"Could it be that this prince is a martial arts genius that only appears once in a century?"
Zhiyuan lowered her eyes, gradually suppressing the astonishment in her heart, and nodded slightly: "If Your Highness can truly devote himself to martial arts training, your future achievements will surely be limitless."
"How powerful can it be?" Lin Jiangnian asked.
Zhiyuan was silent for a moment, then looked up at him and said, "Your Highness, do you still remember the Princess?"
The eldest princess?
Lin Jiangnian naturally remembered it.
The eldest princess of the Daning Dynasty and the fiancée of the Crown Prince of Lin.
How could I not remember?
"What happened to her?"
"She is the number one expert in swordsmanship and the most talented young person in the world today!"
Zhiyuan seemed to be thinking of something, and her eyes narrowed slightly: "She entered the second-grade Tianxuan realm at the age of less than eighteen. No one in the world can match her!"
Having said that, Zhiyuan glanced at Lin Jiangnian again. After a moment, she spoke again, "Back then, she only spent one night..."
“…”
I was supposed to write five chapters today, but I've only written three so far. Five chapters is really hard to write... I still owe two chapters, I'll try to finish them tomorrow!
