Chapter 010: Introduction to the Eight Immortals Posture
The intention is profound, and the practice of the post is difficult. After starting to practice on this solid wooden square table, Chen Jue felt that his mind was constantly tense, fearing that a moment of carelessness would lead him to fall.
Practicing the Eight Immortals Posture on a table is significantly more challenging than on flat ground
With just a casual movement or exertion of strength, the hull would sway violently, making it impossible to maneuver or dodge significantly, or to exert full force, for fear that a moment's carelessness would result in falling overboard
In addition, the effect of the standing posture practice on enhancing physical skills has also improved significantly compared to before
Thus, the originally intended free attribute points for physical constitution were all allocated by Chen Jue to the Eight Immortals Post in one go
A day's practice allowed Chen Jue to accumulate a considerable amount of attributes
To understand, if others wish to practice this Eight Immortals Posture, those with ordinary aptitude will require at least 3 months to get started, while those with stronger comprehension and talent, with diligent practice, will need at least a month or so to begin.
However, Chen Jue did not come for the gate controller; instead, he pushed off with his foot and leaped onto a small boat docked at the shore
Although it is not yet possible to truly walk on solid ground, at the very least it allows him to stand firm on the ship, no longer fearing that he will fall into the water
However, through this practice, he still discovered the uniqueness of the Eight Immortals Posture
From learning these Eight Immortals Stances to truly mastering them, it surprisingly took only a few short hours
It is akin to enabling a time cheat for a practice that originally required a step-by-step approach, allowing one to take a shortcut and, in the blink of an eye, directly enter the realm of mastery
Haha! So refreshing!
As a result of practicing for 2 hours, all of his attributes experienced a significant increase, which is much more efficient compared to merely practicing the basic punches.
After attempting a few moves of the boat boxing and standing in the Eight Immortals Post, a sense of realization, as if to say "indeed it is so," surged in my heart
The hull has been subjected to force and begins to sway in the water
Indeed, the training has paid off! Strength and agility have each increased by 0.02, and constitution has also risen by 0.01
The free attribute points have also increased to 0.08
This time, Chen Jue did not practice on the dam again, but instead followed the steps beside the dam all the way to the water's edge
Although I have a strong desire to practice my skills on this small boat and continue to enhance my attributes, the environmental conditions do not permit it
To stand firm on the narrow and bumpy deck of a fishing boat, exerting force to strike the enemy with a ship's punch, is it not akin to the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, treading on waves as if walking on level ground
The kind of visible enhancement is truly astonishing, to the point that Chen Jue couldn't help but exclaim out loud
Compared to practicing on flat ground, it is simply worlds apart
This boat is likely used by reservoir management personnel for cleaning up debris on the water surface and has been docked at the shore.
After much contemplation, Chen Jue could only focus his attention on those free attribute points
Strength: 0.89
In the realm of martial arts novels, this is likely what is referred to as exceptional insight and extraordinary talent
The Eight Immortals Posture is named after the legend of "The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, Each Showing Their Own Powers"
However, to achieve an extraordinary level of insight and exceptional talent, it is likely necessary to enhance one's intellectual attributes as well
A freedom attribute point of 0.01 can enhance skill proficiency by 10 points
However, at that time, Chen Jue had not yet mastered the Eight Immortals Posture and did not dare to easily board the boat for practice
As soon as Chen Jue stepped onto the small boat, he felt a slight wobble beneath his feet
This so-called skill is not about qigong or internal strength, but rather the stance training that accompanies martial arts practice
Having glanced at the time, it was already past 5 PM. Chen Jue then took a shower and began preparing a meal to replenish his nutrients
The foundation work is still inadequate
During the previous few training sessions on the dam, Chen Jue had already taken notice of it
Originally, while practicing boxing at the table, one could only vaguely see the environment around the feet. However, after practicing for two hours, Chen Jue was able to see the scene near his feet very clearly
A surge of unfamiliar muscle memory instantly flooded Chen Jue's entire body, and what had initially felt somewhat obscure and awkward, even a bit unrefined in the Eight Immortals Posture, was surprisingly mastered by Chen Jue in just a few seconds
Since today I have successfully learned the Eight Immortals Posture, it is only natural to experience the true environment in which this boat boxing is practiced
In that case ... ... Eight Immortals Post, grant me an enhancement
I just practiced on the small boat for a while, and my proficiency in the Eight Immortals Posture has increased to (20 / 100)
Agility: 0.81
According to the statements of those experts in the forums, whether it is external martial arts or internal martial arts, as long as there is a complete lineage, it will generally include the practice of stance training
This is the effect brought about by this attribute panel within him
Skills Mastered: 【Ship Fist Lv1 (47 / 200)】【Yijinjing Twelve Forms Lv0 (4 / 100)】【Eight Immortals Posture Lv0 (19 / 100)】
Intelligence: 1.22
Name: Chen Jue
I want to practice on this small boat, and the difficulty is considerably greater than that of practicing on the solid wooden square table at home
Now, there is no fear of falling down
With an IQ 1 point higher than the standard adult, and having achieved a 22% increase in his studies, he not only gained admission to university but also learned various martial arts, meditation techniques, and stances with remarkable ease, without any hindrance whatsoever
Chen Jue considers himself to be quite a clever and resourceful individual, adept at adapting to circumstances, and his intelligence attribute of 1.22 certainly suggests that he is not one to be underestimated
Chen Jue was drenched in sweat as he jumped down from the square table, pondering once again the profound truth of the saying, "Without practicing the fundamentals, one will end up with nothing in old age"
But what about Chen Jue
Constitution: 1.26
Saying it a thousand times and explaining it ten thousand times is not as good as experiencing it personally once
A slight misstep may lead to stepping into empty space on the table, resulting in a fall
There is a metal gate on this staircase that controls the opening and closing of the flood discharge valve at the bottom of the reservoir. It is painted red on the outside, making it highly conspicuous even at night
The proficiency of the Eight Immortals Post has suddenly surpassed 100 points, and the level has subsequently risen to Lv1!
In addition, the heat rising from the body and the sweat produced have increased significantly compared to when practicing the boat boxing before
In addition, certain stances can also enhance a person's reflexes, visual acuity, and other abilities. For instance, the Eight Immortals Stance practiced by Chen Jue fully encompasses the aforementioned characteristics.
Practiced the Eight Immortals Posture on a small boat for a few rounds, resulting in a slight increase in strength and agility
After finishing the meal and satisfying his hunger, Chen Jue once again took a walk up to the reservoir on the back mountain
In addition to possessing the ability to exert force and enhance agility like other training methods, the constant sense of mental tension has also significantly improved Chen Jue's dynamic visual acuity
The sofa in the old house is a large seven-seater made of fabric, with as many as twelve cushions that can be removed, arranged around the table without leaving a single empty corner.
In order to prevent such an incident from occurring, Chen Jue specifically went to remove the cushions from the living room sofa
Although the intentions of various schools of practice differ, they largely evolve around the theory of "strengthening the body, cultivating internal energy, and stabilizing the lower body"
Although he has begun to learn the martial arts, his foundation in the lower body is still not solid, and he does not dare to exert force easily. Chen Jue only feels as if he has been shackled by a layer of constraints
Age: 27
It is feared that this is also due to the constant mental tension, which causes the entire body's muscles to react, thereby increasing physical exertion.
"Wait until the physique is raised to 2 points, allowing it to reach twice that of a normal adult, then I will consider enhancing the intelligence attribute," Chen Jue planned as he began practicing the Eight Immortals Posture.
Assignable free attribute points: 0.08
After mastering the Eight Immortals Stance, Chen felt that his lower body had become significantly more stable, and even when performing the Boat Fist on a small boat, he began to exude a vigorous energy.
