Chapter 23

"Great!"Huang Rong readily agreed.

She took down a copy of the Pure Yuan Method, carefully opened it, and page by page showed it to Brother Ning Chuan to "read."

Brother Ning Chuan focused all his attention, deeply imprinting every character on the pages and every diagram of meridian circulation into his mind.

As he flipped through one Internal Energy Cultivation Method after another, countless insights regarding Internal Energy cultivation surged into his heart like a tide.

【You are observing the Pure Yuan Method... You have understood the basic principles of refining essence into Qi...】

【You are learning the Changchun Heart Method... You have comprehended the method of transporting Internal Energy through the Great Circulation...】

【You are studying the Fragment of the Jade Method... You have gained a preliminary understanding of meridians and acupoints...】

"So, the path of Internal Energy in this world begins with the Postnatal Ninth Grade. The Ninth Grade is the lowest, and the First Grade is the highest. In this stage, one primarily refines the body's essence and Qi through specific breathing and inhalation techniques, as well as visualization and spirit preservation, transforming them into one's own Internal Energy and storing it in the dantian."

"The Postnatal Realm mainly involves the body's twelve regular meridians and eight extraordinary meridians. Martial artists must constantly open these meridians, allowing Internal Energy to flow smoothly within the body, thereby nourishing the flesh and enhancing strength."

"Cultivating Internal Energy requires refining essence into Qi, drawing upon the essence of grains, vegetables, and meat to transform it into the source of one's own Internal Energy."

"My snake body has a meridian structure completely different from that of humans. If I wish to cultivate Internal Energy, I must create a safe and effective energy circulation route based on the physiological structure of a snake body."

Brother Ning Chuan's mind was filled with myriad thoughts, and he already had a rough idea of how to cultivate Internal Energy.

What he needed to do now was to integrate these scattered pieces of knowledge and create a Cultivation Method truly suited to himself.

Time flew; in the blink of an eye, ten days had passed.

During these ten days, Brother Ning Chuan had virtually "read" every book in the Martial Arts Tower related to Internal Energy cultivation.

Huang Rong accompanied him every day, turning pages and resolving his doubts.

In the past, she found those dry martial arts theories extremely boring, but now, accompanying Brother Ning Chuan to watch them, she found herself, for some reason, thoroughly engrossed.

Even when explaining some basic martial arts common sense to Brother Ning Chuan, her own understanding of Taohuadao martial arts seemed to improve slightly without her even noticing.

On this day, Brother Ning Chuan remained coiled within the Martial Arts Tower, eyes closed and spirit focused, as countless fragments of knowledge regarding Internal Energy cultivation collided and merged rapidly in his mind.

He seemed to see streams of simulated energy flowing and trying out paths within his vast snake body's meridians.

Failure, adjustment, try again...

Finally, at a certain moment, a brilliant flash of spiritual light, like lightning, cut through the mist in his mind!

【You have observed dozens of Internal Energy Cultivation Methods such as the Pure Yuan Method, the Changchun Heart Method, and the Fragment of the Mingxin Method...】

【You have deeply understood the mysteries of refining essence into Qi, Great Circulation transport, and meridian operation...】

【You combined the unique meridian structure and life characteristics of your snake body...】

【You used the bloodline source of the Black Water Mystic Snake as a guide...】

【You have created an Internal Energy Cultivation Method unique to snakes—the Black Water Mystic Snake Method!】
