Chapter 121: Innate Breathing Technique
In the first second after Zhang Chi opened his eyes, he didn't look at Axe King. He was still confused!
Inside his dantian, there was a green spherical object surrounded by a thin mist.
The mist revolved around the green sphere and occasionally expanded.
This thing, not to mention Gu Youyou, even Zhang Chi, who had read many novels as a transmigrator, was a bit confused.
Could this be considered a Gold Core?
Or is it a star in the body that will eventually become a black hole...
Gu Youyou also didn't understand, but she was greatly shocked.
After entering a meditative state, she finally understood what was going on.
Previously, Zhang Chi's dantian was just a cyclone, and she couldn't figure it out and had no thoughts.
But now, watching the small sphere breathe in spiritual energy, she finally understood.
This is the Innate Breathing Technique!
The so-called Innate Breathing Technique is a breathing technique that all living beings once possessed, but only during the embryonic stage.
For example, when a baby is in the mother's body, with its seven orifices not yet open, it relies on the umbilical cord to connect to the mother and obtain nutrients. When it leaves the mother's body and comes into the world, it naturally loses this ability.
All living beings follow this rule.
Therefore, the cultivation world regards this breathing technique as the Innate Breathing Technique and considers it the closest breathing technique to the Heavenly Dao.
Other breathing techniques are considered acquired breathing techniques.
There are countless paths to cultivation, but they all boil down to breathing and refining the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into one's own True Qi through the five viscera and six bowels.
The meridians and acupoints traversed by various techniques are different, with different efficiency and attributes, but ultimately they all converge into the Qi Sea through these acupoints and viscera.
Through long-term cultivation, this Qi inevitably comes into contact with the Qi of the five viscera and six bowels, causing wear and tear on the meridians and acupoints of the five viscera and six bowels.
It may not seem to have much impact, but it is ultimately not perfect.
The Innate Breathing Technique, on the other hand, bypasses the method of transferring the Qi of the five viscera and six bowels through the meridians and acupoints, directly breathing into the dantian Qi Sea, and then refining this spiritual energy into True Qi.
There is no middleman to profit from the price difference, and these scattered spiritual energies will continue to nourish the body. This is why the Innate Breathing Technique is highly regarded by cultivators.
Zhang Chi had been using acquired breathing techniques before, but as he practiced, he unexpectedly returned to the Innate.
Just two words: unbelievable!
"You must have some secret on you."
Gu Youyou was dumbfounded.
Although Zhang Chi was confused, he wasn't too shocked.
Isn't it just something special? Maybe his dantian turned green?
This color is not auspicious, he'll change it to gold next time.
In any case, Zhang Chi had successfully passed the Foundation Building, the novice level for cultivators.
He now felt full of strength and wanted to find someone to fight.
It's like upgrading equipment in a game, who wouldn't want to PvP?
Just as he opened his eyes, he saw Zi Mian guarding him alone, and two fierce knife auras formed a gust of wind rushing towards him.
Just as he wanted to find someone to fight, someone came to him.
"Second Brother, let me handle this fight."
Now it was Gu Youyou's turn. Zhang Chi decided to discuss with Gu Youyou and take turns.
Gu Youyou rarely saw Zhang Chi so full of fighting spirit, so she naturally wouldn't refuse.
"You do need some experience. Go ahead, she shouldn't be your match."
Gu Youyou calmly stepped back, and Zhang Chi took her place.
Zhang Chi glanced at Zi Mian, who was particularly obedient by his side, and smiled as he patted her head.
He didn't say much, but this smile was enough for Zi Mian to imagine.
He was indeed testing me just now?
Zi Mian's knife was already against Zhang Chi's chest, just one step away from piercing through.
But at the critical moment, she became somewhat fearful.
What if this is Zhang Chi's test?
She has tricked Zhang Chi several times before. How could Zhang Chi suddenly cultivate in such a dangerous place?
Maybe he was pretending from the beginning!
Thinking of this, Zi Mian hesitated to take action again.
After a few twists and turns, Zhang Chi woke up, and she missed the opportunity.
But now, looking at Zhang Chi's smile, she felt that she had made the right decision.
If she were to strike, she would definitely encounter Zhang Chi's defensive measures, and then she would be in danger!
While Zi Mian was secretly relieved, the Ghost-Faced Axe King looked confused.
No casualties? What's going on?
Or has he already recovered from his injuries?
The Ghost-Faced Axe King realized that something was not right, but Zhang Chi had already made a move.
"Taking advantage of someone's weakness and bullying my junior sister, I want to see how capable you are!"
When Zhang Chi is being sneaky, he doesn't speak, but in a direct confrontation, it's no fun without sarcasm.
"Then let's fight!"
The Ghost-Faced Axe King showed no fear, swinging her dual axes, ready to attack Zhang Chi.
Her voice really surprised Zhang Chi.
There was a sense of absurdity in a burly man speaking with a cute girl's voice.
"Speak properly, don't strain your voice."
Zhang Chi pointed his sword at the Ghost-Faced Axe King, looking disdainful.
Zhang Chi doesn't mind being ugly; his face is natural. But it's too much for her to strain her voice like that.
The Ghost-Faced Axe King felt deeply humiliated.
"This is how I normally speak!"
She still had a cute girl's accent, swinging her axe like a tank, charging towards Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi was indeed afraid, but with his junior sister watching, he couldn't lose face as the Sword Sect's senior brother.
"Breaking Waves Style!"
Zhang Chi's choice was completely different from Chen Runyu's. Faced with the fierce Axe King, Chen Runyu chose to avoid her attacks and use softness to overcome strength, restraining and pulling.
Zhang Chi's choice was a direct confrontation.
Your axe is impressive, but my sword is not weak either!
The axe dances like the wind, and the wind can also break.
In a battle between masters, one move can determine victory or defeat.
Zhang Chi struck with his sword, shattering the Axe King's dual axes, while his own sword was torn into pieces by the whirlwind.
It wasn't a great sword to begin with, but this sixth senior brother had True Qi infused in it. This move was a true Breaking Waves Style.
The Axe King didn't have True Qi, so this was a martial technique executed purely with physical strength and skill, resulting in a draw against Zhang Chi's Breaking Waves Style.
Who is this formidable person?
Both their weapons were damaged, but the Axe King showed no intention of retreating, swinging her fists and charging forward. She certainly wasn't without tactics; the faint yellow light in her hands indicated that she was using spell fragments.
Zhang Chi also wanted to test the power of the Foundation Building Stage, so he concentrated his strength and threw a punch.
Both of them took a few steps back after their fists collided.
The Axe King was filled with astonishment. How could this person withstand her punch without a scratch?
Zhang Chi was also shocked. How could this person withstand my punch without a scratch, even without True Qi?
"She's a master!"
Both of them made their judgments about each other at the same time, their eyes filled with a strong fighting spirit.
"What should we do, Second Brother? I've already shown off, but if I can't defeat her in three moves, it would be embarrassing!"
He thought that after breaking through to the Foundation Building Stage, he would become much stronger and be able to rampage around.
But now, he couldn't even defeat the first enemy who came looking for trouble. It was really embarrassing.
Gu Youyou didn't mock Zhang Chi. Instead, she said seriously, "It's normal for you to not be able to defeat her. She has the aura of the Ghost Clan..."
