"The most important thing about martial arts is the foundation. Without a solid foundation, everything that follows will just be an attic in the sky!" What appeared in Zhao Kui's mind was the idea that his master had constantly instilled into him since he was young.
After a moment of faint sadness, Zhao Kui's eyes regained its clarity. He mounted his horse on the rock while he himself moved a distance away from the waterfall, causing his entire body to be under the impact of the waterfall. Zhao Kui even stretched out his arms and spread his arms.
"Boom boom boom!"
As the waterfall roared, the torrent of water continuously crashed into Zhao Kui's head, shoulders, arms and thighs. It was as if a thousand jin weight had landed on Zhao Kui's body, causing his legs to tremble slightly under such immense force. The muscles on his arms near his shoulders ached, and his hands involuntarily drooped downwards. Zhao Kui tightly shut his eyes, not allowing the flowing water to enter his eyes. In his mind, he discarded everything as he felt the power of nature.
"Hold on!" Zhao Kui clenched his teeth as he spoke to himself. He endured the stabbing pain and the burning sensation in his muscles as his teeth grew increasingly intense. He desperately lifted his hands up and tried to stabilize his legs; this was a battle of perseverance and laziness. As long as there was a trace of laziness in his mind, Zhao Kui might be struck down by the water current!
"Whooosh."
Zhao Kui was constantly gasping for breath, and from time to time, a large amount of water would fall into his mouth. After persisting for a quarter of an hour, Zhao Kui's legs trembled extremely violently.
"This is bad!"
After Zhao Kui shouted, he fell down. When his legs were shaking, he was unable to stabilize his body and was struck by the waterfall until he fell head first into a pool of water at the bottom of the cliff.
"Pfft!"
Zhao Kui emerged from the water and spat out a mouthful of water. He shook his head helplessly as he looked at the waterfall that was still flowing down.
"This kind of training is not just about having strong willpower! In order to significantly improve your endurance, you need to train your endurance to a certain realm, otherwise, if you are on a rock, although you can grit your teeth and persevere, but if you are slightly distracted by the tiredness, you will be directly struck down by the waterfall! " This was Zhao Kui's way of summing it up. By doing so, he would be able to gain a lot of experience and find out his shortcomings.
"Alright!" Again! " Zhao Kui's heart surged with pride. He then proceeded to the top of the rock and began his training.
"BOOM!"
After persisting for another quarter of an hour, Zhao Kui was still forced to fall into the lake.
"I don't believe it!" Again! " A sense of stubbornness rose in Zhao Kui's heart. He was extremely dissatisfied with his own performance.
"BOOM!"
"BOOM!"
"BOOM!"
….
After an unknown amount of time, Zhao Kui practiced over and over again, and over again. From holding on for fifteen minutes at the beginning to being able to hold on for a quarter of an hour later, Zhao Kui finally felt a little satisfied with his harvest. After crazily tormenting himself, Zhao Kui's legs were even floating as he walked, and his arms were almost unable to lift up.
"Finally, it can be considered pretty good. It's too tiring!" Zhao Kui was lying on the grass, not wanting to move at all. Looking at the dark blue sky, he had an urge to sleep.
"No!" There was still a long way to go! "Continue!" Just as his eyelids were about to close, Zhao Kui suddenly opened his eyes. He could not let himself relax, and his sleepiness also disappeared along with his thoughts.
After a round of hard training, Zhao Kui could barely muster up any strength. This training had made it easier for him to stand on the bare rocks and become more proficient in controlling the water flow of the waterfall.
"Your training has produced great results. Your muscles are like steel. Only after going through thousands of tempering can your muscles become extremely tough. Every single muscle will become like steel wire, full of strength and strength!" "This is only the beginning of the training, I am still far from it!" Zhao Kui looked at the waterfall that was roaring non-stop, "You are the first step in my training!"
"Hu!"
After Zhao Kui had practiced his inner force for a while, his muscles, tendons, and bones all received nourishment and the sense of exhaustion gradually disappeared. Zhao Kui clenched his fists and felt the muscles protruding from his body.
"Hehe!" Come and train me to your heart's content! " A hint of madness flashed across Zhao Kui's eyes. He then leaped up the cliff and landed the rock skillfully. He then received the hammer strike of the falling waterfall.
"Comfortable!" "Haha!" Zhao Kui felt the water flowing down his body, washing away the burning heat that came from his tensed muscles. His whole body felt extremely comfortable, every pore seemed to be breathing the freshness of the water flowing through.
The sun had already set in the west, while the moon was gradually setting in the east. The moonlight sprinkled on top of Zhao Kui Jian's thin body, casting a beautiful layer of yellow-white light on it, causing the water in the waterfall to gradually turn cold. Zhao Kui was still being washed away by the water's current, causing Zhao Kui to tremble slightly, and only then did he realize that it was getting late!
"So cold! This is where the waterfall practice will end today. After Zhao Kui was done thinking, he decided to follow the directions and leaped down.
Zhao Kui circulated his inner force, and the water on his body gradually turned into white steam. After a while, Zhao Kui's body was completely dry. He felt an indescribably warm and comfortable feeling.
After replenishing his energy, Zhao Kui threw down the bones left over from his meal and sat on the grass, propping up his chin as he tried to recall something.
"Today's harvest is great, I'm still far from it. If it was a normal horse stance, I would have been able to stand for several hours without a problem, but under these kinds of conditions, I can at most last for half an hour. I need to continue training!" Zhao Kui was not satisfied with his own progress. The goal that he was pursuing was very high. He had to put in a lot of effort in order to achieve that goal!
"My muscles' willfulness and endurance is still far from being enough!" Zhao Kui's eyes sparkled as he looked at a huge rock in the distance. The rock was as tall as Zhao Kui's chest and perfectly round, giving off the impression that it had been specially polished.
"You!" After Zhao Kui circled around the rock, he nodded his head in satisfaction. This rock must be around four thousand jin. Its weight was suitable for Zhao Kui to train with.
"Hah!"
Zhao Kui shouted and lifted the stone up. The bugs that were living under the stone began to scatter in all directions. The homes that they relied on to survive were destroyed and they were frightened. They began to search for the next place to live.
"I'm sorry!" After cleaning the rocks, Zhao Kui's legs separated from his body and sank down, making a right angle between his calves and thighs. He then lifted the rock above his head, his hands constantly moving slowly, the direction of the boulder also slowly changing.
The muscles on Zhao Kui's upper body were constantly being exercised as Zhao Kui moved. Meanwhile, his legs were constantly taking eight steps, the muscles on his legs were also constantly contracting and releasing. Very soon, the muscles on his entire body started to heat up.
Zhao Kui was able to grit his teeth and endure the pain. He was no longer as exhausted as he had been when he was inside the waterfall. He was no longer able to use his tenacious willpower.
The most important part of this training was not only Zhao Kui's muscle toughness, but also his willpower. During the day, Zhao Kui was mainly training his muscles toughness, which was followed by a strengthening of his willpower.
"Whooosh."
White steam was continuously ejected from Zhao Kui's nose and mouth. He was now like an old cow at work, exhausted to the point that all the bones in his body seemed to be on the verge of breaking apart.
He once again requested for support!
