Chapter 258: Guide the Qi to make it close, pull the body to make it soft
"Just as I guessed, this lightning is not ordinary natural lightning, but special electrical energy that is integrated with true Qi!" When Chen Jue grabbed the two lightning whips with his hands, he instantly figured out the principle of the lightning attack in his mind.
It should be similar to the characteristics of Gangqi and Jianqi, which are extraordinary energies extended from the true qi.
He crushed the two lightning whips with his hands, and the jumping lightning and the golden flames in Chen Jue's palm dissipated in the air by themselves, and finally turned into wisps of green smoke and dissipated.
The green Kuiniu let out a muffled roar upon seeing this, and the lightning outside its body spread and activated again. It moved one foot, and blue lightning visible to the naked eye spread on its only hoof. It stomped its foot hard on the ground, and a huge cracked pit was trampled out on the land by the river. Its entire body slammed towards Chen Jue like a giant thunder god!
With the blessing of the extraordinary lightning, Kuiniu's truck-like body seemed to have accelerated to sixth gear, and it was almost about to explode the dashboard.
Upon seeing this, Chen Jue also pounced forward, with the internal energy of his body stimulated. He seemed to have turned into a ball of red-gold fireball and collided with the Kuiniu!
"boom!!!"
The two energies, one blue and one red, collided violently at the riverside, making a startling noise, like a large-yield aerial bomb exploding. The two-color energy shock wave that swayed from the center of the explosion set off an unparalleled energy force, dispersing the dense fog within a hundred meters around it.
Yun Xiaomei, who was hiding far away, felt a strong light piercing her eyes, and the wind wave blew her back several meters.
When he came to his senses and the strong light dissipated, he saw Chen Jue at the center of the explosion holding down the head of the Kuiniu with one hand, pressing half of its body into the exploded pit on the ground.
"If a cow doesn't want to drink water, why force it to drink?" When Yun Xiaomei saw this scene, this adjective suddenly flashed through her mind.
Chen Jue felt the struggling force coming from the Kuiniu and roughly deduced that the opponent's strength attribute should be around 7 points, only slightly weaker than Bai Ze's strength.
Bai Ze was more than twice the size of the Kui Niu! Coupled with the blessing of the extraordinary lightning, the power of the Kui Niu was greatly enhanced.
However, Chen Jue also had martial arts energy in his body, and he had also practiced the [Golden Body Skill] and benefited from several horizontal training states. His physique was as strong as if it was made of super alloy steel. He directly used his brute force to suppress the Kuiniu to the ground, preventing it from struggling and going crazy.
"Moo!"
The lightning and thunder stimulated by Kuiniu continuously turned into long whips and lashed at Chen Jue, but they were all blocked by the internal energy rising from Chen Jue's body.
The applied high-voltage current was unable to break through the combat suit outside Chen Jue's body, and a trace of panic flashed across Kuiniu's eyes.
"Behave yourself!" Chen Jue grabbed the thick cowhide on the head of Kuiniu and used his own tremendous strength to press the Kuiniu to the ground. No matter how it struggled, it could not break free.
Then, a palm slapped heavily on the bull's head with a bang, making the Kui Niu dizzy. Its violently shaking body trembled and instantly lay down motionless. The arc of lightning jumping on its back also dimmed and stopped instantly.
When Yun Xiaomei saw that the irritable Kuiniu had become docile, she approached cautiously, squatted down and looked into the eyes of the slightly calmer Kuiniu, and then they started to communicate with each other.
"Brother Chen Jue, let it go! It promised not to attack us again."
"It said that their tribe has a habit of surrendering to powerful opponents and giving up part of their territory to the other side." Yun Xiaomei stood up and explained.
"He still needs a beating before he behaves. He is really stubborn." Upon hearing this, Chen Jue retracted his strength and loosened the cowhide in his hand.
"Moo!" The Kuiniu, who was pressed to the ground and unable to move, felt the huge force on his head disappear, and he growled at Yun Xiaomei with gratitude. Then he crawled beside Chen Jue in awe, and licked Chen Jue's combat uniform with .
The barbs and bumps on the ox's tongue caused a bright spark on the metal layer of the combat uniform, which made Chen Jue's eyelids twitch.
"No wonder the leather armor of these Kuiniu is so strong. In addition to the stimulation of these extraordinary lightning, I guess licking with the tongue more often can also have the effect of polishing the leather membrane." Chen Jue thought to himself when he saw this.
Observing the obedient Kuiniu carefully from a close distance, Chen Jue discovered that there were a large area of extremely fine ridges on the opponent's leather armor. Looking closely at those ridges, they looked like the protrusions of the positive pole of a battery, with weak electric arcs jumping on them. They should be extraordinary organs evolved from the stratum corneum of the skin.
Just like the electric eel's muscle power generation, it relies on the series effect to gather a lot of small amounts to generate high voltage current.
In addition, Chen Jue also observed that although this Kuiniu only had one leg, its body muscles were extremely developed, otherwise it would not have been able to unleash such terrifying power as before.
Stimulating muscles with electric current can indeed stimulate muscle contraction and achieve the effect of rapid muscle growth, and some people have done it on Earth. However, the side effects are great, which can damage the human biological system and make the body lose the perception of fatigue. Most people die of heart failure.
It's like practicing some evil martial arts, which makes you progress quickly but also has serious side effects.
However, this Kuiniu didn't seem to have this side effect. Putting his hand on the Kuiniu's belly, Chen Jue felt the other's beating strong heart with his enhanced perception.
In addition, the breathing method of this Kuiniu is also extremely unique.
It was seen that its breathing could last for more than a full minute, and the airflow from its mouth and nose would stir up the fog that had re-gathered around it. Its powerful lungs and stomach made its chest and belly bulge slightly, and its abdomen hit the ground between the bulges, making a muffled sound like a bell or drum.
The vibrations caused by Kuiniu's breathing are like rolling thunder, penetrating into its body inside and out, creating a unique effect of cleansing the marrow and refining the internal organs.
In addition, the mooing sound made by the Kuiniu can also strengthen the brain, and it is stronger and more powerful than the mooing sound made by cattle on Earth.
"The training of essence, qi and spirit is integrated into the physiological activities of the body structure, which is equivalent to being in spiritual practice every moment."
"Its roar is like thunder, its body emits real thunder, and even its breathing is accompanied by thunder sounds! This Kui Niu is truly blessed by nature, no wonder it is called an ancient mythical beast in the Classic of Mountains and Seas."
"It is indeed true that he has reached the divine level! He has entered the realm of transcendence!"
As Chen Jue observed the details of the Kui Niu, his mind was filled with thoughts. He felt that only such a unique body structure could support the Kui Niu's huge body that was more than ten meters long.
Sitting cross-legged next to the Kuiniu, Chen Jue closed his eyes and used the senses enhanced by the [Five Senses and Six Perceptions] to construct the image of the Kuiniu in his mind.
Then Chen Jue controlled his breathing and gradually made his breathing frequency consistent with that of the Kuiniu beside him.
You should know that one breath of this Kuiniu lasts for one minute, which is 20 times lower than the breathing rate of a normal human. This 20-fold decrease is equivalent to a change in the frequency of oxygen supply to the lungs.
At first, Chen Jue felt a little uncomfortable, but soon he discovered through [inner vision] that the flow of qi and blood in his body began to accelerate.
Due to the change in breathing rate, the amount of oxygen, nutrients, and metabolic waste delivered increases, the blood becomes as heavy as lead and mercury, and the heart beats and lungs expand more powerfully than before.
In addition, Chen Jue's long and deep mouth and nose breathing method also increased the intake of true Qi, stimulating changes in the respiratory and blood supply organs.
As he practiced, Chen Jue felt like he had turned into a Kuiniu!
The weak electric current rotating within the cells begins to converge on the surface of muscles and skin, with a tendency to form a specific high-voltage current.
It was not until a "ding" sound flashed through his mind and a new skill, [Kui Niu Guiding Technique], appeared that Chen Jue stopped his momentum of practice.
"He actually created a completely new martial art?" Chen Jue was also a little surprised.
Daoyin is a practice created by early ancient Qigong practitioners who observed the bodies of animals. This type of Daoyin technique is often practiced in conjunction with specific breathing and postures and is not restricted to standing meditation. For example, the Five Animal Exercises created by Hua Tuo is a type of Daoyin technique.
Chen Jue believes that the reason why the boxing and martial arts created by later generations are different from the guiding techniques of the Qin and Han dynasties and began to introduce standing meditation to build up energy is because the true Qi in the heaven and earth is decreasing year by year and the meteorites falling to the earth are consumed.
In addition, there have been figures like Liu Bowen in every dynasty who have come out to cut off the dragon veins, which is why the practice of guiding techniques has gradually faded from the stage of history.
The era when boxing, martial arts and national arts were popular was just after the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Before the Ming Dynasty, there were many Taoist masters, such as Lu Zu and Chongyang Zhenren, who were all the results of their practice in the Tang and Song Dynasties, and also due to the reduction of the true qi in the earth's environment.
But he didn't expect that this time when he brought Yun Xiaomei out to look for exotic beasts and communicate, he actually created the [Kui Niu Guiding Technique] by himself. This can be regarded as an unexpected surprise for Chen Jue in his cultivation.
"Little sister! The ox shape was not originally included in the 12 forms of Xingyiquan. It was later generations who deliberately added the lion shape, elephant shape, and ox shape to make up the 15 forms of Xingyiquan."
"Since you are following the path of learning from nature and observing the cultivation of all beasts, you must also learn to innovate. It would be best for you to learn the breathing method of Kuiniu and the essence of the one-legged standing posture. It will be helpful for your cultivation." After pondering for a moment, Chen Jue put away his excitement about creating achievements and reminded the elf-like girl beside him.
With the idea of teaching people how to fish, Chen Jue did not directly teach her his newly learned [Kui Niu Guiding Technique], as that would make Yun Xiaomei dependent and mentally lazy. It's like a student who gets used to copying homework and won't continue to study and think, which is harmful to her practice.
"Got it, Brother Chen Jue!"
"The change in your aura just now was the same as that of this silly cow. You must have understood its true meaning, right?" Yun Xiaomei smiled and narrowed her eyes slightly when she heard that. Seeing Chen Jue nodded in response, she also curiously communicated with the Kui Niu again and entered into a state of imitation and learning.
