"Yaoyao~~"
It was as if the sound of a clear spring trickled through Li Ming’s heart, as warm and pure yang true energy flowed into his body. The injuries in his ridians and internal organs that had sustained damage began to improve in the blink of an eye.
The true energy from Green Pine, Li Ming’s discipline, did not clash with this new energy at all. This indicated that the newcor’s true energy was of the sa kind as his—full of vitality and mild—belonging to the righteous path of true energy.
Moreover, it signified that the other party had such a profound grasp over their true energy that they could effortlessly heal his wounds without his own true energy perceiving any danger.
Healing others is an extrely energy-consuming task for martial artists, and it is not sothing one would do lightly for soone outside of close family and friends due to the expenditure of true energy.
Besides, depleting one’s energy is a minor issue. The real difficulty is having to extend one’s true energy outside the body and transfer it into soone else’s.
This task alone may seem inconspicuous, but in practice, one will find that out of the ten parts of internal strength sent out, less than one part is actually effective once it enters another’s body.
Given that only about one-tenth of the internal strength is effective, an enormous amount of true energy is needed to have any healing effect.
Therefore, unless specific physicians can utilize their Everlasting True Energy to produce substantial results with minimal input, using silver needles at special acupoints to achieve exceptional effects, most martial artists below the second-rate realm wouldn’t dare attempt to heal others.
The fact that this captain of the Black Guards was so decisively using his own true energy to heal him instantly made Li Ming realize—the Emperor was anxious to see him.
"Your true energy is robust and features both mildness and vitality, but explosive moves, once used, can cause extensive strain on your ridians. I observe that your martial discipline has nearly reached its peak. Perhaps you should seek a martial art that’s full of vitality and power for further cultivation."
As the injury to his ridians was healed, Li Ming opened his eyes just in ti to hear the voice of the Black Guard Controller. He turned and saw a gentle smile on the other’s face; there was no sign of flushed skin, breathlessness, or even a trace of sweat.
Grandmaster!
In an instant, Li Ming ascertained the cultivation level of this individual. Only a Grandmaster could so effortlessly heal a first-rate expert like him and have the insight to assess his martial skills.
To think that even a Controller was a Grandmaster.
In this world, the realms for martial artists were as follows: non-notable, third-rate, second-rate, first-rate, and Grandmaster (Innate).
Plus, one special realm that was not considered a formal level: beyond first-rate.
A robust young man would start by lifting stone locks, carrying water, swinging large hamrs, and pulling strong bows to temper his physical strength and cultivate his body’s constitution. By jumping out of pits to enhance his leaping ability and training in dodging to improve his reaction skills, as well as learning to execute combat moves smoothly in battle with plenty of practical experience, he would qualify as an ordinary, non-notable warrior.
For lifting stone locks, one would begin with heavy wooden locks before gradually progressing to stone locks. A martial artist who could hold his own in Jianghu would need to be able to lift at least two hundred catties of stone lock.
Carrying water was training ant to enhance endurance and the integration of waist and horse stance, fortifying leg strength. Over ti, this could greatly boost the strength and stamina of one’s back, hips, and legs, providing the stamina needed for prolonged combat.
Swinging a large hamr was about enhancing the power behind one’s strikes. Starting with wooden hamrs and progressing to stone, then iron, before finally practicing with one’s preferred weapon.
In the process, one would naturally exert all their physical strength, which, when accustod to the exercise, would allow for the wielding of weapons like iron swords with great force, enabling maximum output power.
Pulling a strong bow served to train the muscles and strength of the arms, enabling a person to better exert their physical strength against enemies.
For pit jumping, one would start with a twenty-centiter shallow pit, repeatedly jumping out until it deepened, continuing until one could leap out of a pit taller than oneself, a sign of mastery.
With the endurance trained from carrying water, scaling a three to five-ter wall with a running start would be feasible.
Training involved passing through a wooden fra corridor rigged with various obstacles tied to ropes. Ensuring they kept swinging, one would sharpen reflexes and coordination by traversing without being hit by any of the objects.
Lastly, there were the combat moves against enemies: starting with routines, moving on to application, and eventually integrating moves into real combat. With a strong base in various training thods and becoming proficient in executing techniques, an experienced martial artist could take on ten ordinary people without issue.
In a favorable environnt, like complex urban rooftops or alleyways, no number of foes would be enough to overwhelm him until exhaustion set in, at which point he could simply scale a wall and flee.
These training thods would produce non-notable warriors of Jianghu who lacked inner strength but were already formidable compared to ordinary people.
Beyond that, there were those who, after decades of unwavering practice, had inherited a rudintary martial skill, developed inner strength, and could integrate said strength into combat to greatly enhance their fighting capability.
