Thinking of this, Fang Han no longer delayed, stood up and walked towards the familiar secluded woodland behind Zi Courtyard.
In the days that followed, Fang Han's life became very regular.
Practice <Wind-Following Art> every morning to strengthen Internal Qi.
Exercise <Wind Splitting Sword Technique> in the morning and improve Sword Art.
In the afternoon, I devoted all my energy to the practice of <Startling Swan Step>.
Sixteen times Footwork Talent Amplification, his understanding of this footwork is increasing day by day.
Some details that were obscure and difficult to understand in the past and required repeated pondering are now often suddenly revealed with a flash of inspiration.
The body shape and footwork become more and more smooth and free, the changes of direction and turns are like flowing water, and the speed is steadily increasing.
He was completely immersed in this wonderful feeling of continuous breakthrough and improvement, without any distractions.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten days passed.
That afternoon, the scorching sun set in the west, Forest Clearing the light and shadow were mottled.
"Swish swish--"
Fang Han has a figure like the wind, moving rapidly around the field, practicing <Startling Swan Step>.
His figure quickly turned into blurry afterimages. His footsteps made no sound, as if a dragonfly was touching the water. Every movement carried a unique rhythm.
Internal Qi surges naturally in the body, perfectly matching the footwork.
At a certain moment, when he performed an extremely difficult step with continuous changes of direction, Internal Qi seemed to have some strange resonance in his dantian.
Internal Qi perfuses the meridians of both feet in an unprecedented way, and the airflow under the feet suddenly becomes extremely sensitive.
It seems as if you are not stepping on the ground, but on the veins of the wind!
"Whoosh--!"
His speed suddenly surged, leaving a faint afterimage that lingered on the spot, but his body had already appeared three feet away.
It was not a simple straight-line acceleration, but an almost perfect "Z"-shaped retracement in a very small range!
What's even more strange is that around the trajectory of his body, the air makes a slight whine, and an invisible airflow wraps around his feet, pushing his speed to the extreme.
It is the footwork that incorporates the characteristics of "Wind Momentum"!
Fang Han's figure suddenly paused, maintaining a mysterious posture, quietly experiencing the realization just now.
The airflow around his body slowly calmed down, but his eyes burst out with an uncontrollable light of joy.
"<Startling Swan Step>, Perfection Realm!"
He slowly pulled back, feeling the unprecedented lightness and strength of his feet, as well as the intimate connection between them and the surrounding airflow.
The symbol of low-grade martial arts Perfection Realm is the understanding of "power".
Sword Technique has Sword Intent, and the footwork also has movement.
Now, he has successfully integrated "Wind Momentum" into <Startling Swan Step>.
"Although they are both Wind Momentum, they are different!"
With his mind moving slightly, Fang Han carefully understood the "Wind Momentum" in the footwork, and compared it with the "Wind Momentum" in Sword Technique that he had already mastered.
Although the two have the same origin, both originate from the perception of "wind", their emphasis is completely different.
"Wind Momentum" among Sword Technique focuses more on condensation, tearing and penetration. It pursues the ultimate destructive power and attack speed. The wind on the blade turns into an indestructible sharp blade.
The "Wind Momentum" footwork is extremely pure, focusing entirely on speed, lightness and change.
The wind under your feet turns into an invisible force that propels your body shape, reduces resistance, and improves the efficiency of your movements.
One is the main attack, the other is the main movement, and the uses are completely different.
He also tried to see if he could directly apply the understanding of "Wind Momentum" in footwork to Sword Technique, or vice versa.
But he soon discovered that this didn't work.
"Shi" does not exist independently, but is closely integrated with specific martial arts techniques, which is the sublimation of its spiritual connotation.
The "momentum" of Sword Technique comes from the coordination of sword moves and Internal Qi, and the "momentum" of footwork comes from the change of steps and the flow of Internal Qi.
The two operating methods, Internal Qi routes, and power-generating techniques are completely different, and the "momentum" they create naturally has their own unique attributes.
If you want to forcibly strip out the "power" of footwork and integrate it into Sword Technique, you simply can't do it.
Even if it can be done, Sword Technique will probably no longer be the original Sword Technique. Its Internal Qi operation and body shape will inevitably undergo fundamental changes, which is equivalent to creating a new and unknown Sword Technique.
Its difficulty is far beyond that of training an existing Sword Technique to the Perfection Realm.
When there is no martial arts to practice in the future, he can develop in this area, but he is still in the beginning stage, so there is no need.
"The road must be walked step by step, and the meal must be eaten one bite at a time."
Fang Han Concentrate your mind and suppress those unrealistic reveries.
Being able to practice <Startling Swan Step> to the Perfection Realm and master the "Wind Momentum" in footwork is already a huge gain.
At this moment, he felt that his speed and flexibility of Body Movement were at least several times higher than those of Greater Accomplishment!
This is definitely a huge improvement in actual combat capabilities.
"It's time to go to the Library Pavilion and redeem a Medium Grade footwork."
Fang Han looked towards the mountainside in the direction of the Library Pavilion, his eyes full of expectation.
Perfection Realm level <Startling Swan Step> has reached the limit of low-grade footwork. If you want to continue to improve, you must change to a higher-level technique.
While Library Pavilion was not closed yet, he rushed to the Library Pavilion.
The afterglow of the setting sun coated Azure Profound Mountain with a layer of warm gold. Fang Han stepped onto the mountainside with steady steps, and once again came to the magnificent seven-story ancient pagoda - Library Pavilion.
The body of the tower is dark green, making it look even more primitive and ancient in the twilight.
He straightened his cyan disciple uniform, stepped in, and stepped straight onto the wooden stairs leading to the third floor.
Behind the counter on the third floor, there was still the middle-aged Deacon with a serious face. When he saw a disciple arriving, he raised his eyelids slightly and pointed at the two heavy abstracts placed side by side on the table.
Fang Han nodded slightly in greeting, took the dark blue-covered book "Azure Profound Martial Treasury·Medium Grade Martial Arts and Kung Fu Summary", and went straight to find the wind attribute footwork classification.
Startling Swan Step is a wind-attribute footwork. If you continue to practice wind-attribute footwork, you will undoubtedly get twice the result with half the effort.
His eyes glanced at a style of footwork and its introduction.
<Willow Catkin Following Wind Step>, focusing on changes and concealment.
<Swift Lightning Streamer Step>, pursues the ultimate linear speed.
<Nine-Turn Returning Wind Step>, good at moving around in a small area.
Each of these wind attribute Medium Grade footwork has its own advantages and disadvantages, and the required contribution value is mostly between 100 and 150 points.
He looked at it carefully and kept weighing it in his mind.
In the end, his eyes rested on the introduction of a technique called <Wind Shadow Step>.
"<Wind Shadow Step>, meaning that the wind passes without leaving a trace, and the shadow moves with the shape. Characteristics: extreme speed, strange changes."
"To practice this method, you need to have some understanding of Wind Momentum. The operation of Internal Qi requires lightness and speed. When you practice it to a high place, your body shape is like the wind and shadow, which is difficult to catch."
"Advantages: Linear speed and dexterity in direction changes are combined, which is particularly advantageous in complex environments."
"Disadvantages: Cultivation is extremely difficult, and the requirements for Internal Qi control and Body Movement comprehension are extremely demanding. It is difficult to learn and even harder to master."
"Evaluation: A Medium Grade footwork that requires a lot of Footwork Talent!"
"Required contribution value: one hundred and twenty."
Fang Han's eyes flashed, this is it!
The characteristics of this <Wind Shadow Step> are almost tailor-made for him. It has both speed and dexterity, which is exactly what he needs now.
As for the extremely high difficulty of cultivation... the corner of his mouth curled up with a faint arc.
With sixteen times Footwork Talent to rely on and a solid foundation laid by the Perfection Realm<Startling Swan Step>, what does he have to fear?
The more difficult it is to practice, the more amazing its power will be once you master it.
"Master Deacon, this disciple would like to redeem <Wind Shadow Step>."
Fang Han Close the abstract and submit Identity Jade Token.
Middle-aged Deacon raised his eyes and looked at Fang Han, with a trace of almost imperceptible surprise flashing in his eyes.
He has an impression of Fang Han.
This boy, last time he chose <Wind Splitting Sword Technique>, which was difficult to practice, and this time he chose <Wind Shadow Step>, which was equally difficult to practice, and he was very particular about picking hard bones to chew on.
Without saying a word, he took the jade token, scratched it on the black inkstone-like object, handed it back to Fang Han, stood up and entered the rear library.
After a while, he returned and handed Fang Han a Dark Cyan booklet with special material and cold and flexible tentacles.
On the cover are three ancient seal scripts with silver hooks and an elegant feel - <Wind Shadow Step>.
After receiving the routine stern warning, Fang Han solemnly took the booklet, carefully put it in his arms, turned around and went downstairs.
When we walked out of the Library Pavilion, it was almost dusk.
Feeling of hunger in his stomach, he did not return to his residence immediately, but instead went to the canteen.
The cafeteria was crowded, and Fang Han found a corner to have a quiet meal, while his mind began to reflect on the general outline of <Wind Shadow Step>.
There were vague glances around him, either curious or inquiring, but he seemed unaware as his mind had already turned to the next practice.
Return to Room C-7, insert the door bolt, Fang Han light the oil lamp, and under the dim light, eagerly take out the <Wind Shadow Step> cheat book.
He took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and then slowly opened the pages of the album.
"The wind has no fixed direction, and the shadow has no constant shape."
The beginning of the secret book is still a general outline, explaining the core essence of this exercise, emphasizing the use of body and wind, turning reality into emptiness, and pursuing the ultimate state of freely switching between movement and stillness.
Fang Han Hold your breath and read it word by word, sentence by sentence. The deeper you go, the more shocked and surprised you are.
This step not only pays attention to the external movement trajectory, but also emphasizes the integration of Internal Qi with body and mind, and the surrounding environment, pursuing a natural and smooth feeling like "Celestial Person unity", which is extremely subtle and profound.
He continued to read, followed by a twelve-step basic footwork chart and a detailed Internal Qi operation route. Each step was equipped with graphic annotations and luck tips, which was far more complicated than <Startling Swan Step>.
Fang Han watched very slowly, sometimes closing his eyes and meditating, simulating the movement and footwork of Internal Qi in his mind.
It wasn't until late at night, when the oil lamp was filled with oil, that he read through the entire secret book several times to ensure that every detail was imprinted in the depths of his mind.
Closing the book, although his eyes were a little tired, they were more eager to try.
The next morning, when the sky was slightly bright, Fang Han woke up.
He practiced cross-legged practice<Wind-Following Art>. After finishing the practice, he felt refreshed and full of Internal Qi.
After simply washing up and going to the cafeteria to have breakfast, he went straight to the familiar Forest Clearing behind Zi Courtyard.
The morning sun shines through the gaps between the branches and leaves, casting dappled light spots.
Instead of practicing Sword Technique as usual, he started practicing <Wind Shadow Step>. He needed to use <Wind Shadow Step>Beginner stage as soon as possible.
