Chapter 010 Introduction to the Eight Immortals Posture!
Practicing the Eight Immortals Posture on a table is much more difficult than on flat ground.
If you are not careful, you will miss your step on the table and fall down.
In order to avoid this from happening, Chen Jue went to take down the sofa cushions in the living room.
The sofa in the old house is a large seven-seater fabric set. The cushions alone can be removed to make twelve of them. They are placed in a circle around the table, leaving no empty space.
"Now I'm not afraid of falling!"
Chen Jue felt that he was a really smart guy who knew how to adapt to local conditions. It seemed that the intelligence attribute of 1.22 was not to be ignored.
His IQ was 22% higher than that of a standard adult human , which not only allowed him to get into university, but also allowed him to learn the boxing, meditation and standing meditation techniques extremely smoothly without any setbacks.
If put in a martial arts novel, this is probably what is called outstanding understanding and extraordinary talent!
However, if you want to reach the level of extraordinary understanding and extraordinary talent, you may have to add some points to the intelligence attribute.
“Wait until my physical fitness reaches 2 points, which is twice that of a normal adult, and then I’ll consider improving my intelligence attribute.” Chen Jue planned this and began practicing the Eight Immortals Posture.
The reason why this Eight Immortals Post is named Eight Immortals is because it refers to the legendary scene of "Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each showing their magical powers".
To gain a foothold on the narrow, bumpy deck of a fishing boat and use force to perform boat punches on the enemy, isn't that just like the Eight Immortals, crossing the sea and walking on the waves as if they were walking on flat ground?
The idea is profound and the pole training is difficult to practice. After practicing on this solid wood square table, Chen Jue felt that his spirit was tense all the time, for fear that he would accidentally step on air and fall.
Compared to practicing on flat ground, it’s a world of difference!
However, after practicing this time, he still discovered the uniqueness of the Eight Immortals Posture .
In addition to the ability to build up strength and improve agility like other standing exercises, the constant sense of mental tension also greatly enhances Chen Jue's dynamic visual ability.
Originally, when he was practicing boxing on the table, he could only vaguely see the environment around his feet, but after practicing for two hours, Chen Jue could see the scene around his feet very clearly!
In addition, the heat rising from the body and the sweat produced were much more than when practicing boat boxing before.
I'm afraid this is also because the mind is always tense, causing the muscles throughout the body to react and increasing physical energy consumption.
"I really did the right thing! My strength and agility increased by 0.02 each, and my physique also increased by 0.01."
"The free attribute points have also increased to 0.08!"
Chen Jue jumped off the table, sweating all over, and began to ponder the truth of spiritual practice: "If you practice boxing without practicing martial arts, it will all be for nothing when you get old."
The so-called skill is not some internal Qigong skill, but the standing skill that is complementary to boxing practice!
According to the comments of those big names on forums, no matter whether it is external or internal martial arts, as long as it has a complete inheritance, it will basically be equipped with standing meditation exercises.
Although the purposes of each school's standing meditation are different, most of them have evolved around the theory of "strengthening the body, building up energy, and stabilizing the lower body."
In addition, some standing postures can also train people's physical reaction, visual capture ability, etc. For example, the Eight Immortals Standing Posture that Chen Jue practiced completely expanded the above characteristics.
After two hours of practice, all of his attributes increased dramatically, which was much more efficient than simply practicing boat fist.
Name: Chen Jue
Age: 27
Strength: 0.89
Agility: 0.81
Intelligence: 1.22
Constitution: 1.26
Skills: [Ship Fist Lv1 (47/200)] [Twelve Forms of Yi Jin Jing Lv0 (4/100)] [Eight Immortals Posture Lv0 (19/100)]
Allocable free attribute points: 0.08
After a day of practice, Chen Jue accumulated a lot of attributes.
Glancing at the time, it was already past 5pm, so Chen Jue took a shower and started cooking to replenish his nutrition.
After finishing his meal and filling his stomach, Chen Jue took a walk to the reservoir behind the mountain again.
This time, Chen Jue did not go to the embankment to practice, but followed the stairs beside the embankment all the way to the water's edge.
There is a metal gate control on the stairs, which is used to open and close the flood discharge valve at the bottom of the reservoir. It is painted red on the outside and is very conspicuous even at night.
However, Chen Jue was not coming for the gate controller. Instead, he took a step and jumped onto a small boat docked on the shore.
This boat is probably used by reservoir managers to clean up garbage on the water surface and has been docked on the shore.
Chen Jue had noticed this when he went to the dam to practice martial arts several times before.
However, at that time, Chen Jue had not yet mastered the Eight Immortals Posture, so he did not dare to go on the boat to practice easily.
Now that I have successfully learned the Eight Immortals Posture today, I naturally want to experience the true environment in which the Boat Fist is performed.
It is better to experience it yourself once than to say it a thousand times.
As soon as he stepped onto the boat, Chen Jue felt his feet shaking.
The hull was under pressure and began to shake in the water.
I tried a few boat punches and stood in the Eight Immortals Stance for a while, and a feeling of enlightenment that "it is indeed the case" came to my mind.
Practicing martial arts on this small boat is much more difficult than practicing on the solid wooden table at home!
If you make any move or exert any strength, the boat will sway violently. You dare not move drastically to dodge or exert all your strength, for fear of falling off the boat by accident.
"You still don't have enough strength in standing still!"
“Although I have learned some basic boxing skills, my lower body skills are not solid yet and I dare not exert force easily.” Chen Jue felt as if he was put in a layer of shackles.
Although I really want to practice on this small boat and continue to improve my attributes, the environmental conditions do not allow it.
After much thought, Chen Jue could only focus on those free attribute points.
"In that case... Eight Immortals Pillar, upgrade it for me!"
I just practiced on the boat for a while, and my proficiency in the Eight Immortals Posture has increased to (20/100).
0.01 free attribute points can increase skill proficiency by 10 points.
Therefore, all the free attribute points that were originally intended to be used on physical fitness were added by Chen Jue to the Eight Immortals Post in one go.
The proficiency of the Eight Immortals Post broke through 100 points in one go, and the level rose to Lv1!
An unfamiliar muscle memory instantly flooded into Chen Jue's whole body. The Eight Immortals Posture, which was originally a little obscure and unfamiliar, and even a little not-so-standard, was actually mastered by Chen Jue in just a few seconds!
You know, if other people practice this Eight Immortals Posture, those with average qualifications will need at least three months to get started, and those with stronger comprehension talents will need at least a month to get started with diligent practice.
But what about Chen Jue?
It only took a few hours from learning the Eight Immortals Posture to actually getting started!
This is the effect brought by this attribute panel in his body!
It is equivalent to letting the training that originally required step-by-step practice be turned on, like taking a shortcut, and you can get started in the blink of an eye.
After learning the Eight Immortals Posture, Chen Jue suddenly felt that his lower body was much more stable. Even when he was performing the boat punch on a small boat, it became more powerful.
Although it's still not as smooth as walking on flat ground, at least it allows him to stand firmly on the boat without fear of falling into the water.
In addition, the effect of building up strength and improving body skills while standing still is much stronger than before.
After practicing the Eight Immortals Posture for a few rounds on the boat, my strength and agility increased a little.
“Haha! That feels so good!”
The visible strengthening was so overwhelming that Chen Jue couldn't help but shout out!
