Chapter 6: Chapter 6: Practicing the Cold Wind and Chilly Art
Safeng thought of the secret book that he had read and memorized word for word and then destroyed. He thought how wonderful it would be if he could practice.
Suddenly, a light bulb went off in his mind. He thought that the reason he didn't succeed in practicing in the original world was because this world was already in the Dharma Ending Period, and people had seriously damaged the ecology, so there was no heaven and earth energy to absorb.
But this world is different.
This world has so much water, the environment is also very good, and even sea kings can grow so big.
It can be imagined that this world has a lot of heaven and earth energy.
Safeng was very excited when he thought of this. He quickly sat down cross-legged and began to recall the Cold Wind and Leng Lie Determination Method.
Although he had always kept this set of mental methods firmly in mind, he still recalled it several times before practicing to make sure there would be no mistakes.
Then he slowly began to practice the mental method and began to absorb the vitality of the world from the outside world and transform it into his own true energy.
Because he had tried to practice the Cold Wind and Cold Art when he was on Earth, he knew how to practice it at the beginning, and he didn't have to worry about any problems.
Originally, he was thinking: If this method doesn't work here, then I can only eat the devil fruit, but when Safeng practiced the method to absorb the vitality of heaven and earth, the vitality of heaven and earth in the outside world seemed to be attracted by something and rushed to drill into his body.
Safeng was shocked. He didn't expect that the vitality of the world outside was so abundant.
But now was not the time to be surprised and sigh.
He quickly gathered his mind and used all his strength to practice the Cold Wind and Cold Art, transforming the absorbed vitality of the world into his own true qi to circulate through his meridians. Soon, the first wisp of true qi appeared in Safeng's meridians.
Then Safeng practiced the mental method over and over again to increase the content of true qi.
However, when he had the tenth wisp of true qi, Safeng thought: Although the amount of true qi is important, the quality of true qi is even more important.
Although he now has more true qi, these 10 strands of true qi feel very loose, as if they would disperse if touched by someone.
Haven't you seen in the ancient martial arts novels that if you just increase the amount of true qi without paying attention to the quality, you will either go astray or get stuck at a bottleneck and be unable to move forward?
Thinking of this problem, Safeng could not be careless, so he carefully polished the true qi while circulating it.
Because the weather energy from the outside world was still drilling into his body, he was able to polish the 10 strands of true qi into 1 strand of true qi through repeated circulation of the mental method when he had just cultivated 10 strands of true qi, and this strand of true qi was extremely tough.
Safeng sensed it and felt that the toughness of this strand of true qi was enough to match the toughness of the previous 20 strands of true qi.
Looking at this strand of true qi running through the meridians, Safeng felt very excited, but at this moment, he suddenly felt dizzy, so he quickly stopped practicing, but just as he opened his eyes, he found that his eyes were black and then fainted.
I don't know how long it took…
" Safeng, are you awake? How do you feel?"
"Is there anything wrong with your body?"
"Why did you faint?"
When Safeng just opened his eyes, he saw a mass of human heads in front of him. He was shocked at first because he only saw heads but not bodies when he opened his eyes. He thought he was in hell.
When Safeng saw who was around him clearly, he couldn't help but smile. He felt really happy because the people around Safeng's bed were all members of the Whitebeard Pirates, and when he opened his eyes just now, all the questions he heard were from their mouths.
Seeing so many people caring and loving him when he fainted and listening to the caring questions from the mouths of these lovely men surrounding him, Safeng couldn't help but tremble in his heart; his nose felt sore, and tears flowed from his eyes, but he still had a happy smile on his face.
Let the lonely previous life pass; having you in this life is enough. I will definitely protect the family affection that I have gained after two lifetimes and will never let you die easily!
At this moment, Safeng truly let go of his past self and truly integrated into this family called the Whitebeard Pirates.
" Safeng, what's wrong? Are you okay? Why are you crying for no reason? What do you mean by 'Who bullied you? Tell me and I'll help you beat him up.' Hey, who of you bullied Xiao Safeng? Stand up honestly."
When Thatch saw Safeng suddenly crying, he panicked and didn't know what to say. He looked around and said, Nonsense!
"Brother Thatch, it's okay; it's none of anyone's business. I just feel so lucky to meet you guys!"
Safeng explained hurriedly. He didn't want to implicate everyone and get scolded by Thatch because of his own little thing.
"So that's how it is, you silly boy, hahahaha, we are a family!" Thatch suddenly realized.
Afterwards, when everyone saw that Safeng was fine, they went out together and left him some space to rest. Before leaving,
Thatch told Safeng not to think too much and to have a good rest. Although it sounded a bit nagging, Safeng felt that this was a family, and it felt good to be cared for.
After thinking happily for a while, Safeng came back to his senses. He fainted because of practicing the Cold Wind and Cold Art. So how was the practice of the Cold Wind and Cold Art after he fainted? Was it successful or failed?
With a nervous mood, Safeng tried to practice the Cold Wind and Cold Art. The Qi flowed through the meridians more smoothly than he expected. The cold wind Qi obtained by practicing the Cold Wind and Cold Art was running quickly through the meridians.
Safeng could feel that although his Qi was not much, there were only two strands, but it was obvious that these two strands of Qi were purer and stronger than the dozens of strands of Qi he had practiced before.
He hadn't tried the power, but it should be greater than this time. Because he had just practiced and couldn't reach the level of inner vision, but feeling the Qi running through the meridians, Safeng laughed, "Hahahaha, I succeeded!!!"
He knew that he finally had the power, although this power was still small and insignificant, but this power was the starting point and cornerstone for him to protect his loved ones in the future. With it, protecting the loved ones in his heart was no longer an unattainable dream.
"Dad, everyone, although I can't stop the big event from happening in the future, I will definitely try my best to protect my dream!"
Safeng said to himself silently in his heart.
After saying that, Safeng calmed his mind and consolidated the first level of the Cold Wind and Leng Lie Jue.
Although he only had a little bit of true energy, as the old saying goes, "Practice in the coldest days of winter and the hottest days of summer."
You must persevere in practicing martial arts; otherwise, there will be no progress. It is good enough if you don't regress.
What's more, he has just broken through the first level. If he doesn't consolidate it in time, there is a possibility that even the realm he just broke through will be reduced to the original state. Such a result is definitely not what he wants.
So Safeng immediately got into the state and worked hard to consolidate his cultivation, but he didn't dare to practice.
He thought about the reasons why he fainted: first, because his current body was only that of a 4- or 5-year-old and his physical strength was not good enough; second, because he had just started practicing and couldn't control the flow of true qi very well, he spent a lot of energy; and also, he had just cultivated true qi, and he had spent a lot of energy to condense it, which was why he fainted as soon as he relaxed his mind.
So now he could only consolidate his cultivation and familiarize himself with the flow of true qi but didn't dare to practice!
