Chapter 18: Self-cultivation and Qi training (This chapter is free)

Liu Qing walked around Wei Nan and stared at Wu Qun and the other seven people coldly.

The seven people were all disguised themselves, but under Liu Qing's cold and playful gaze, no one dared to act rashly. Everyone looked at Wei Nan who fell behind Liu Qing without freedom. Listening to his "hissing" bloody sound, the fighting spirit of the seven people was constantly passing away, and fear became more and more prevailing.

Liu Qing said coldly: "It seems that you are the same as him, and you also want to see my strength."

The seven people put away their postures in an orderly manner and stood upright and well-behavedly.

A faint smile appeared on Liu Qing's face, and the seven people looked at the smile in panic, even more at a loss.

Liu Qing suddenly said, "You have heard of the saying 'A bottle is not satisfied, half a bottle is swaying'?"

The seven people nodded one after another, and one even said flatteringly: "I understand, we are the half bottle, we will..."

Liu Qing interrupted him and said, "I'm wrong."

This man was speechless and looked frightened. He couldn't help but look at the body that was still emitting blood on the ground. His legs were weak and he was actually spread on the ground.

Liu Qing said lightly: "You are not even half a bottle, at most you can only count as half a cup."

Everyone nodded and agreed: "Half cup, half cup..."

Liu Qing continued: "Go back and study hard! If you want to pretend, go to the crowd of ordinary people. Don't go too far and no one will care about you. If you want to do what you are like now, practice for another ten or eight years."

Everyone nodded again, and slowly moved towards the exit of the rooftop. Seeing that Liu Qing had no reaction at all, they immediately started running wildly.

Liu Qing suddenly said, "Wait."

After a shout, the seven people had already stopped in unison. Liu Qing said: "What happened tonight..."

Immediately someone respectfully answered: "We know what to do."

Liu Qing smiled indifferently and said, "You guys go!"

In a blink of an eye, the people on the rooftop had already left, leaving only Liu Qing and a corpse.

Liu Qing suddenly said, "Are you still there?"

Ye Fan's figure slowly emerged from the exit, with surprise, uneasy, confused, and a variety of expressions gathered together.

Liu Qing smiled and said, "Those people can't even feel you when they run past you. It's true that there is a gap."

If it were normal, Ye Fan would inevitably be proud, but he really didn't have the intention at this time. He looked at Wei Nan who had spoken to him a few minutes ago, but now he was already a corpse. His voice was trembling, "Is he really dead?"

Liu Qing did not answer and smiled, "You look very nervous."

Ye Fan said nothing.

Liu Qing said: "It seems that this is the first time you have seen a murder."

Ye Fan still said nothing. This was indeed his first time. Although he had thought that he would face these things one day if he was carrying "star killing techniques". But when he really saw them, he had only one word to describe the feeling in his heart: up and down.

Liu Qing said: "You are just watching. When I first started, I was already killing someone with my own hands."

After calming down for a moment, Ye Fan asked, "How many people have you killed?"

Liu Qing said calmly: "I haven't counted it. If I remember these, I will go crazy one day."

Ye Fan asked: "Who are you?"

Liu Qing laughed: "Do you think killing someone will have any origin? You are so young. People like us are so ordinary to kill and hurt people. Just say that the seven people just now were indeed very scared, but they are not afraid of corpses like you. They are afraid that they have also become corpses. Do you understand?"

Ye Fan nodded silently. But he still had questions: "However, there is still a reason to kill people, right? You killed Wei Nan and let the other seven people go. Is there no reason?"

Liu Qing smiled and said, "Of course there is a reason, but I have no reason to tell you. As for those seven people, they won't understand much more than you, but the ridiculous thing is that they think they understand very much."

Ye Fan shrugged.

Liu Qing looked at Wei Nan on the ground and said, "But I can tell you that killing him is definitely not a boring conflict like the one between you and Zhou Yun. This is completely a matter in our world."

"What's happening in our world?" Ye Fan was puzzled.

Liu Qing looked at him and said, "Yes, our world, including you and me. If you had listened to me, everything would be restrained. Although you are very capable, you might not have entered this world, but now it seems that it is a bit late." As he said, Liu Qing pointed to Wei Nan and said, "See, this is the trouble you caused by yourself."

Ye Fan asked: "You killed him to help me relieve the trouble?"

Liu Qing smiled and said, "Although I reminded you, I didn't think about taking care of you meticulously. It has nothing to do with you if I killed him."

Ye Fan said: "Then I will tell you too! You said I didn't listen to you. In fact, it was not that I didn't believe you, but that I really didn't know how to restrain myself, or that I didn't pay attention for a while."

Liu Qing smiled and said, "I understand."

"you understand?"

Liu Qing said: "Of course, all new people are the reason when they are unintentional to enter this world. However, most of them are the latter, and they are not careful for a moment; while you are the former, and you don't know how to restrain yourself."

Ye Fan was helpless.

Liu Qing sighed and said, "You are so tender that you are so young. Your body and breath are already outstanding, but I can see that you have no skills in using breath, or even no idea."

Ye Fan was stunned and asked quickly: "You are right, can you give me some advice?"

Liu Qing said: "Do you understand what 'skill' is?"

Ye Fan said without hesitation: "Cultivate yourself and train your qi!"

Liu Qing said: "What does it have to do with self-cultivation and qi training?"

Ye Fan was speechless, and Liu Qing smiled and said, "In fact, it is very simple. Practicing Qi is to use your own strength more; cultivating yourself is to carry more Qi. And the two are serving each other. If the body is strong and the breath is insufficient, then the power cannot be exerted most effectively; and if the breath is too strong and the body cannot carry it, it is even more dangerous. To put it simply, it is like being obsessed with the fire in martial arts novels!"

Ye Fan nodded. These things were something he had never heard of before. He was very surprised. These things sounded like quite basic knowledge. Why didn’t his father tell him?

Liu Qing continued: "The auras cultivated by different techniques are different. I use numbers to give a simple example: a body of the same quality may bear the amount of your breath as 1, while a body of my breath as 2. A normal understanding may be that the greater the power, the stronger the body will bear the body, but the fact is not the case. There are many factors that determine this point. It is precisely because there are many subtle differences between breaths, so different techniques will have different moves."

Liu Qing nodded. He heard Ye Ping say something similar, but it was not as detailed as Liu Qing.

Liu Qing continued: "If you use your art to activate my art moves, at the least you can't activate it or it's not powerful; in serious cases, hey, then you can be said to be obsessed with it. So, if you ask me to give me guidance, I can only teach you some methods to exercise your body. I don't think you need it. Your physical fitness seems to be stronger than mine. It can be seen that your art physical exercise is more effective than mine. In terms of higher-level breath operation, it is impossible to provide detailed guidance if it is not the same breath."

Ye Fan snatched: "So, you said so much nonsense, just telling me that you can't give me some advice."

Liu Qing shook his head and said, "It's not that I can't, it's that no one can. I'm saying so much to advise you to completely dispel this idea. If you really want someone to give me some advice, you can only be someone who practices exactly the same technique as you. In addition, even if you seem to have a similar technique, as long as there is a little subtle difference, the consequences after amplification are unimaginable."

Ye Fan was completely speechless. In fact, what Liu Qing said was that Ye Ping had mentioned to him, but he did not start from theory and connect it to reality like him.

Liu Qing suddenly smiled and said, "So, you can only experience it yourself. I hope you can see a day when you have made a breakthrough, and now you can leave."

"And you?"

Liu Qing said lightly: "I have to deal with the corpse, I don't think this is what you are willing to see."

Ye Fan looked at Wei Nan in a pool of blood on the ground and suddenly asked, "What did they say to gather together to challenge powerful opponents? Are there many such people among the people who practice skills?"

"Maybe there is such a person, but he is definitely not for this." Liu Qing pointed to Wei Nan underground and said, "Those people will not know his true purpose."

Ye Fan asked: "What is he for?"

Liu Qing said: "I know it doesn't mean I want to tell you!"

Ye Fan didn't say anything else, but Liu Qing said instead: "You won't tell anyone what you saw today, right?"

Ye Fan asked: "What would happen if you said it?"

Liu Qing said lightly: "Then you will know after you tell me. I advise you to be the same as them, just pretend that you didn't see it!"

Ye Fan said nothing, and Liu Qing suddenly laughed and said, "Or just treat me as a friend and help me."

Ye Fan smiled faintly and said, "Okay!" Finally turned around and left.

Ye Fan's heart was not as calm as he appeared. After entering university, too many things happened that he had not expected. He thought that this would have passed the past four years as before. The results were very different. The most important point was that more people like him began to get closer and closer to his life. He finally realized that his thirteen years of cultivation of "star killing" had only laid the foundation, and higher-level cultivation seemed to have just begun.
