Chapter 52 of "I Can See Through Everything" unveils: “Training methods and combat techniques?” Lu Qing was surprised.“Yes,” the old doctor replied. “Training methods, also... Continue the story!

“Training methods and combat techniques?” Lu Qing was surprised.“Yes,” the old doctor replied. “Training methods, also known as nourishing methods, as the name implies, are techniques for nurturing the body, tempering the flesh, and enhancing one's physical strength.” “The Health Nourishing Boxing I taught you is actually a form of training method, a boxing technique I created myself to train the body.” “As for combat techniques...” The old doctor paused to organize his thoughts before continuing. “Martial artists who cultivate the way of martial arts have vigorous Qi and blood, and are usually energetic and competitive. It is inevitable to have a strong desire to win.” “Therefore, in the long history of conflict, martial artists have gradually developed many highly aggressive techniques, which are combat techniques.” “Combat techniques are also known as killing techniques. These martial arts do not aim to nurture the body or temper the flesh, but focus on how to unleash the greatest destructive power and lethality in the shortest time with the least cost to defeat the opponent.” S~ᴇaʀᴄh the n0vᴇl(ꜰ)ire.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality. “Thus, in terms of lethality, combat techniques are much stronger than training methods.” “Nourishing methods and killing methods...” Lu Qing pondered these two terms carefully. Just from these two names, he could feel the turbulence on the path of martial arts, a cruel road that might demand life-and-death decisions at any moment. “Master, you said Health Nourishing Boxing is a training method. What about our lineage's combat techniques?” Lu Qing couldn't help but ask. “Our lineage doesn't have combat techniques.” The old doctor's next words left Lu Qing stunned. “Don't make such a face,” the old doctor said with a smile, “Master is not good at fighting. It's not surprising that I didn't create any powerful combat techniques.” Lu Qing then remembered that his master was a physician, a very kind-hearted physician who did not like to fight. A lack of competitive spirit might be why he didn't create any powerful combat techniques. “However, even though Master is not good at fighting, I do have a few decent combat techniques in my possession. Would you like to learn them?” “Hmm?” Lu Qing was stunned again. “Master, didn't you just say our lineage doesn't have outstanding combat techniques?” “Our lineage indeed doesn't have outstanding combat techniques,” the old doctor replied. “Your grandmaster, who was my master, was just an ordinary itinerant physician who knew some basic self-defense techniques.” “Later, when I was young, I had some fortuitous encounters, which allowed me to create the Health Nourishing Boxing.” “So, I wasn't lying when I said our lineage doesn't have outstanding combat techniques.” “Then what did you mean just now, Master?” “The combat techniques I possess are mostly acquired during my travels. Some were given to me as medical fees by certain chivalrous individuals I treated, some I bought in markets in large cities, and others I found while collecting herbs in the mountains.” With a few simple words, the old doctor hinted at his extraordinary experiences, which Lu Qing could discern. But... “Master, can combat techniques be bought?” Lu Qing found it somewhat incredible. In his impression, martial arts manuals should be the most cherished possessions of martial artists. Who would sell them? “Haha, this world is vast and full of wonders. When you have the chance to venture out, you'll realize that not only are there people who sell martial arts manuals, but some even carve out their lifelong learning and make it public for everyone to learn,” the old doctor laughed. “Who is so generous?” Lu Qing asked in astonishment. “That was a great martial artist admired by all martial artists under the heavens.” The old doctor seemed lost in thought, showing a longing expression and fell silent. After a long while, he came back to his senses, “Alright, let's not talk about that.” “Lu Qing, although as physicians, our duty is to cure and save people.” “But sometimes, when you travel outside, you will inevitably encounter unforeseen events, so you must have some self-defense skills.” “Health Nourishing Boxing is good for dealing with ordinary people, but if you face martial artists who also cultivate martial arts, it is not enough.” Lu Qing nodded. Health Nourishing Boxing can be used to deal with enemies, but against those who can unleash powerful lethal combat techniques, it is evidently at a disadvantage. “You have now stepped into the Qi and Blood Realm and become a true martial artist, so it is time to choose a combat technique to cultivate.” “Master, what kind of combat techniques can I learn?” Lu Qing asked with some anticipation. “Although I have many combat techniques here, most are quite ordinary, suitable only for the Qi and Blood Realm. The truly exquisite ones, there are only three. Wait a moment.” Saying this, the old doctor walked into the house and soon came out with three books. “These three martial arts, one is a staff technique, one is a blade technique, and the other is a sword technique. Each one is a martial art for the Bone and Muscle Realm. Which one do you want to learn?” Lu Qing's eyes roamed over the three manuals. He did not foolishly say he wanted to learn all of them. Although he possessed supernatural abilities, he understood the principle of not being greedy. He was now just a small Qi and Blood Realm martial artist, focusing on cultivating one martial art was the best choice. After some contemplation, Lu Qing finally said, “I choose the blade technique.” “Are you sure? Once you choose, it may affect your future martial path,” the old doctor said solemnly. “Disciple has thought it through. I choose the blade technique,” Lu Qing replied firmly. He was not very interested in staff techniques, and his interest in sword techniques was average. Instead, the blade technique intrigued him. After all, the blade was quite domineering, which suited his taste. “Since you have decided, then take this manual.” The old doctor handed one of the manuals to Lu Qing. Lu Qing took the manual and opened the first page, his brows raised: “Four Directions Blade?” “Yes, this blade technique is called Four Directions Blade. I found this manual by chance in a mountain cave while collecting herbs.” “In the cave, there was a skeleton, already turned into bones. In front of the skeleton, there was an oiled paper package, containing this Four Directions Blade manual.” “After burying the skeleton, I took the manual.” Lu Qing was amazed. He realized that his master seemed to have a lot of fortuitous encounters. When he was young, he could discover unknown martial arts that led to the creation of Health Nourishing Boxing. Even while collecting herbs, he could find martial arts manuals. This kind of luck was indeed incredible. “Lu Qing, this Four Directions Blade technique, I have only read it, but not practiced it. Since you chose this blade technique, I can only give you some training suggestions but cannot teach you hand-to-hand.” “So how far you can master it depends on yourself.” “Disciple understands,” Lu Qing nodded. “Although the Four Directions Blade technique is intricate, if practiced deeply, even a Bone and Muscle Realm martial artist would find it hard to withstand its power. But with your martial aptitude, mastering it should not be difficult.” The old doctor's confidence in Lu Qing made him somewhat embarrassed. If it weren't for his supernatural abilities, he might indeed disappoint his master.
