Chapter 17: Cultivation of Qi Gathering

The cultivation of the Qi Gathering stage was essentially the same as the cultivation of the Pranayama stage. It was just that the cultivation of the Qi Gathering stage was controlled by the practitioner’s subconscious.

Therefore, the cultivation experience that he had accumulated previously was still useful.

Whenever Lu Heng cultivated his internal energy, he had always maintained a very serious attitude. Every time, he would carefully sense the changes taking place inside his body.

In addition, his learning ability had not been bad to begin with. Now that his comprehension ability had improved, he could properly understand the essence of the cultivation technique manual.

Therefore, it was overly dangerous for him to experiment like this on his own.

Without further hesitation, Lu Heng took a deep breath and absorbed a large amount of qi into his lungs according to the mantra of the internal strength technique.

The next step was the most crucial step.

Using his mind, he guided the qi gathered in his lungs to temper the muscles of his left arm.

Instinctively, Lu Heng looked at his left arm.

He would not be able to see the movement of qi, which was taking place inside his body, from the exterior. In addition, he was wearing rather thick clothes.

Regardless, Lu Heng felt that it was more reassuring to look at his arm like this.

‘According to the cultivation technique manual, I should feel a slight swelling…’

Lu Heng carefully felt the sensations transmitted from his left arm.

‘Eh? It seems to have been… successful?’

Lu Heng was delighted. He quickly closed his eyes and completely focused his mind onto his body.

In an instant, he could clearly feel the swelling sensation on the biceps of his left arm. This meant that the muscle fibers were being nourished and tempered by the flow of qi.

‘It’s successful, it has to be successful!’

Lu Heng opened his eyes. His face was full of excitement.

The success of his first attempt gave him great confidence.

Although he had just undergone the safest, easiest, and most basic muscle tempering, the fact thathe was able to succeed in one attempt meant that his comprehension ability was sufficient.

Moreover, given the success of his first attempt, the success rate of his subsequent attempts would greatly increase.

‘If this works, I will start by tempering all the muscles in my body. When I have enough experience with the process, I will guide the flow of qi to temper my bones and nourish my internal organs.’

This was also the process that most people who cultivated this internal strength technique would go through. They would first temper the muscles and fascia, then temper the bones, then temper their nerves, internal organs, and so on.

This was the safest way and the one with the least probability of failure.

‘Again!’

After calming himself down, Lu Heng continued to guide the flow of qi around his muscle tissues.

Time passed quickly.

During this time, Lu Heng also stopped to inspect the farm a few times to ensure that the crops in the field were not eaten by the insects that appeared at night.

Whenever he paused his work, he would immediately focus on cultivating the Qi Induces Internal Strength technique.

He continued to cultivate this way until morning.

‘In another two or three days, I should be able to master it.’

As he watched the rising sun in the east, Lu Heng was in a good mood.

In one night, he had tempered about 80% of the muscles in his body. During that time, he had encountered no major problems. This meant that he had roughly grasped the correct method of using qi to temper the muscles.

After another day or two of careful training, he could try to temper the remaining muscle tissues.

These muscle tissues were generally located at the vital parts of his body, so he had to be very careful while tempering them. As such, Lu Heng was not in a hurry to try it.

At this time, a figure walked over from a distance.

Lu Heng took a glance and saw that it was Uncle Wang, who had come to replace him for the day shift.

“Little Heng, you’re not sleeping during the night shift, are you? Why do you look so energetic?”

When Uncle Wang arrived in front of Lu Heng, he immediately felt that something was amiss.

Lu Heng smiled and said, “Uncle Wang, you must be joking. How would I dare to sleep here? What if a monster appears?”

Uncle Wang thought for a moment and nodded slightly. “That’s true.”

After saying that, he still looked at Lu Heng suspiciously. He could not shake the feeling that Lu Heng’s complexion was abnormally good.

Lu Heng did not explain anything to him. After all, this kind of thing could not be talked about carelessly.

Everyone who worked here would go to the dojo to practice martial arts, and everyone knew the dojo’s rules.

If Uncle Wang found out that he was already trying to reach the second stage, he would have tried to give Lu Heng some advice.

Advice was still acceptable. However, if word of this got out and reached Instructor Wu’s ears, he would be in trouble.

Instructor Wu would definitely come after him.

“Uncle Wang, I’m leaving now,” Lu Heng said goodbye.

“Okay.”

Uncle Wang nodded and watched Lu Heng leave.

Lu Heng jogged all the way and soon arrived at the rail car station.

After getting on the rail car, he thought to himself, “I didn’t expect the effect of the Qi Gathering technique to be so good. It’s much better than resting”

After using the Qi Gathering technique, not only was his body full of energy, but he also felt refreshed.

It appeared that the descriptions inside the cultivation technique manual were true. Actively guiding the qi to temper the body would allow the body to absorb more energy.

When that happened, the body would naturally be full of energy.

The rail car started to move slowly. Not long after, it reached the station outside the inner city gate of Jiangnan City.

After getting off the rail car, Lu Heng rushed all the way back home.

Along the way, he carefully sensed the changes in his body. He wanted to understand how much his muscles had strengthened after a night of Qi Gathering cultivation.

By the time he arrived at home, he had a rough estimate.

His conclusion was that a night of Qi Gathering cultivation was equivalent to five or six days of Pranayama cultivation.

No wonder those talented geniuses improved so quickly. It turned out that it was not only because of their good physiques and their bodies’ high adaptability to qi, but also because they had started internal strength training early.

‘After my meal, I’ll head to the dojo to continue practicing my saber technique.’

Lu Heng was full of energy and did not feel sleepy at all. He just wanted to practice his saber technique as soon as possible.

8.00am, at Dojo No.9.

When Lu Heng rushed over to the dojo, he discovered that He Bing had arrived as early as yesterday.

This made Lu Heng a little puzzled. Why did He Bing practice martial arts so diligently?

One had to know that He Bing was from the pharmaceutical factory. He would likely never have the chance to come into contact with monsters, so there was really no need for him to practice martial arts for self-protection.

Normally, a person like him would only practice martial arts as a way to maintain their health. Normal people would never work so hard.

Lu Heng had never paid attention to He Bing before, so he was not aware of his personality. Now that He Bing and himself had become fellow disciples, he realized that He Bing was not quite the same as other ordinary people.

“Senior Brother He, you’re here so early again today.”

Lu Heng went up to greet him.

He Bing held the saber in his hand tightly. While continuing to practice his saber technique, he said, “My home is relatively close to the dojo. It’s very just a short walk away.”

Clang!

He Bing performed a horizontal slash and then slowly put down the saber. He said, “Come. Let’s see you practice the saber draw. I want to see the results of your practice yesterday.”

“Okay.”

Lu Heng walked over to a place not far away from He Bing. He stretched out his body and got himself ready.

As soon as he had entered the dojo earlier, he had gone over to get the saber first. He had then brought the saber with him to the training hall.

Seeing that Lu Heng was standing motionless, He Bing slowly put the saber in his hand back into its sheath. Just as he was about to completely sheathe it, Lu Heng suddenly swung his saber at an extremely fast speed.

“Huh?”

He Bing was stunned. He had not expected this performance from Lu Heng.

Perhaps it was better to say that he was not mentally prepared for Lu Heng’s saber technique to have improved so quickly.

“Damn, you brat. It’s only been a day, and I already can’t teach you anything more,” He Bing said with a speechless expression.

He realized that he could not see any flaws in Lu Heng’s saber draw move.

This also meant that Lu Heng’s grasp of this move was no weaker than his.

It had only been a day. How was this brat’s comprehension ability so high?

“Senior Brother He. Actually, I’ve practiced the subsequent moves as well. Why don’t I demonstrate them once, and you can help me see if there are any flaws that I need to improve on?” Lu Heng inquired.
