Chapter 007: The Beautiful Master

After a few breaths, having completed the entire set of punches, Liao Yaqi settled her energy in the dantian and adjusted her internal breath, saying

Lu Yao maintained a side-lying posture, attempting for a long time without success. Unbeknownst to him, the night had grown deep.

However, with numerous worries weighing on Lu Yao's mind, and the imminent threat of life and death looming before him, how could he possibly relax his spirit completely

At the same time, the "sleep skill" allowed Lu Yao's vital energy and blood to flow exceptionally smoothly, combined with the efficacy of the Ten Complete Nourishing Soup, which provided excellent nourishment to his body and internal organs

This is the essence of martial arts; without it, one cannot mend the hidden injuries sustained from training and combat

In the next second, the young girl moved like lightning, executing a set of martial arts that combined both softness and strength

Lu Yao sat upright and attentively listened to the teachings of the Master Sister.

He is very worried that practicing martial arts is his only hope, and if he fails, he will not be able to live much longer, but the more he thinks this way, the harder it becomes for him to concentrate

Lu Yao quickly changed to a different position, facing the girl directly, and could even feel the sweet fragrance of the other party.

Lu Yao stared blankly, for the first time in his life lying next to a beautiful girl... That enchanting figure seemed to still be before him

The apprenticeship of Lu Yao is not like those disciples in martial arts schools who pay an annual fee of 100 copper coins

The girl exudes an exceptionally pleasant fragrance, natural and pure, bringing a sense of comfort and allowing one to temporarily forget their troubles

Lu Yao nodded repeatedly, feeling that it was quite wonderful to lie together and chat with the girl.

Deep sleep is referred to as golden sleep, and its benefits for the brain surpass those of anything else

Lu Yao was somewhat at a loss, but he soon understood.

He also performed three grand bows towards the ranking and proclaimed loudly: "Disciple Lu Yao, wishes to be accepted into the Liao Family Fist! I will diligently practice and listen to the teachings!"

Lu Yao thought: "This Liao Qigong is the father of the two sisters, who, for some unknown reason, passed away at a young age"

Father, today Liao Ya will take disciples on your behalf! This will ensure the continuation of our sect's legacy and the orderly transmission of teachings. We pray for your spirit in heaven to bless us.

In the training hall's meditation room, three individuals stand solemnly.

What I just demonstrated was the practice of Liao Family Fist, and what I will teach you next is the 'Nourishing Method'

Lu Yao nodded slightly, just about to subtly inquire why this prominent figure passed away at a young age, when Liao Ya continued to speak

Lu Yao awkwardly shifted back a little

Liao Yachen said: "What are you doing lying behind me? Come to the front!"

The mind is gathered, the heart lake is calm without a ripple, the spirit is completely settled, and "concentration" is achieved successfully

Liao Ya said solemnly: "I will first perform a set of Liao family boxing, you may watch."

Sleeping meditation is not difficult; the movements are quite simple, and it can be easily learned with a relaxed approach. The challenge lies in "concentration"! Even in the initial stage, practitioners need to completely relax their minds and achieve the state of—concentrated sleep

Liao Qi made a sound of "cut" and walked away slowly.

The young woman gently instructed: "This is the art of sleep. Next, I will teach you 'spiritual refinement.' Only when these two are combined can one achieve a complete method of 'nurturing.' Come, lie down beside me and assume the same posture."

In a side-lying position, gravity causes the clothing to cling closely to the body, revealing the beautiful and enchanting curves in full view

Liao Ya then said

It is only seen on the ranking that it is inscribed "In memory of the esteemed spirit of Master Qigong of the Xian Yan Liao family"

My father... followed Lord Lin to Humen to destroy opium and died under the cannons of the foreigners. Therefore, I must say a harsh word upfront—our family must avoid any association with opium; otherwise, I will certainly cleanse the family. Do you understand!

Living... is truly wonderful. At this moment, he suddenly felt an unprecedented desire to survive

This is the "Four No's"; I hope you will take care of yourself.

Next, the two individuals spent half a day to finally complete the teaching of the introductory nurturing method

Liao Qi happily said while holding Lu Yao's arm: "Ha, I have a junior apprentice now! Call me 'senior sister' and let me hear it~"

This night was the most restful one for Lu Yao since he fell ill, and his entire body received the best recuperation

There is still so much beauty in life waiting for me to experience, how can I just die like this

Liao Ya's face turned slightly red, and unexpectedly, she lay down on the ground! With a serious expression, she said: "I will first teach you 'sleep technique', pay close attention to my movements."

Refining the spirit is a practice specifically aimed at honing the mind, possessing various incredible effects. The first three realms are: 1. Concentration, 2. Meditation, 3. Sitting in oblivion. The first realm, 'Concentration', refers to the stabilization of the mind, free from distracting thoughts

Moreover, the girl's movements were extraordinarily swift, resembling teleportation, leaving Lu Yao dazzled and his heart stirred, filled with envy.

I do not wish to die, not only because of revenge or unwillingness, but because... living is truly wonderful

Liao Ya's face turned even redder: "Don't get so close, keep your distance!"

Lu Yao immediately lay down beside the girl.

Lu Yao officially entered the stage, and it was time to impart martial arts skills

When the spirit is not exuberant, one perceives the essence of all things in the world; when the heart is not greedy, one can discern right from wrong and the shades of truth; when talent is not ostentatious, one is unafraid of slander or praise; when desires are not insatiable, one is not bound by the allure of fame and wealth

Um! Liao Yaqing cleared her throat and said seriously: "Junior brother, since you have joined the sect, there are some things I must tell you in advance"

Having spoken, he arrived at the venue, assuming a stance as firm as a pine tree, with his fists placed at his waist, his spirit as resolute as a pine growing on a steep cliff.

In the past, I would wake up in pain after only two or three hours of sleep. Even taking large amounts of painkillers or receiving morphine injections was far less effective than using a combination of sleep techniques and focused meditation

So it turns out to be the descendants of heroes! Lu Yao stood up in respect, nodding vigorously: "I understand now! I also have a deep-seated hatred for such trash!"

Liao Ya stated: "The Liao family martial arts have a long-standing heritage, with techniques that directly target the innate. My late father was a grand master at the blood exchange level, just one step away from becoming an 'innate master'"

The posture of lying face to face is quite awkward, and Liao Ya left behind a remark, "Take your time to understand it yourself," before running away, her face flushed and disappearing from sight

The young woman extended her right hand, placing the space between her thumb and index finger below her earlobe; her other hand formed a pinching gesture, resting on her hip, while her legs were stretched straight.

Liao Qi was instantly overjoyed

but to truly join the "Liao Family Fist" school, becoming an inner disciple and establishing a close connection with the sect

This is no trivial matter! Therefore, even though the Liao family of Quan has dwindled in numbers, leaving only the two sisters, they still arranged a brief yet formal ceremony

Liao Ya bowed three times to a ranking and offered a stick of incense

Then, Liao Ya raised her head and puffed out her chest, shouting in a delicate voice: "From today onwards, you are a disciple of the Liao family martial arts! We have no strict rules to bind you, only one ancient saying:

Lu Yao discovered that Liao Ya's hips were wider than her shoulders, making her a true gem! Unfortunately, he currently lacks worldly desires, which is a pity.

Liao Ya's expression relaxed, and she was extremely satisfied with this junior brother

I want to completely cure cancer, and then marry my senior sister! Being able to marry such an excellent wife, both physically and mentally, would make this life worthwhile!

Liao Ya does not have such frivolous thoughts, and continues to teach: "When practicing the sleeping technique, if one can concentrate simultaneously, then the method of nurturing can be considered as having entered the threshold."

Lu Yao bowed respectfully and said: "I humbly accept the teachings, Master!"

Lu Yao suddenly had an epiphany and expressed his "great aspirations"; it felt as if a stone had dropped from his heart, and his restless spirit gradually calmed down

A cultivation method, at its core, is not merely a technique for killing, but rather the 'practice' of refining the body and the 'nurturing' of the soul.

... ...

He maintained a side-lying position conducive to sleep and gradually fell asleep. Without a trace of distracting thoughts, he entered a state of deep sleep

... ...

This quiet room has always been used by Liao Ya, filled with her presence

As the gentle breeze rises, the form and intent follow suit. The movements of the fists and feet may appear to be understated, steady, and slow, yet in reality, they possess great force and weight.

Her mind was in disarray, tangled in a hundred thoughts. Lu Yao could not help but take a deep breath, and the fragrance of a young girl instantly filled his nostrils

Thus, Li Cheng and Lu Yao officially became the junior disciples of the two sisters. The way the two women looked at him carried a touch more warmth.

Then, she thought of something and said to her sister: "You go practice your boxing yourself"

Even if she did not exert her full strength, her punches effortlessly shattered the air, producing a series of explosive sounds! The force she unleashed was like a fierce wind, making it difficult for people to keep their eyes open.

Lu Yao smiled and clasped his fists in salute: "Greetings, Senior Sister ~"

This is merely an introduction to the methods of cultivation
