The Complete Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms
Looking at Li Zhichang's expectant gaze, Hong Qigong thought to himself that he could help Li Zhichang conceal his identity and form a good relationship with him. He was already old and there were not many years left. It would be good for Beggar's Sect if he could form a good relationship with Li Zhichang. After all, he was basically the third generation sect leader of Quan Zhen Sect.
"Kid, since you want to see it, I'll demonstrate it for you. After all, Quan Zhen Sect has a good relationship with Beggar's Sect. If Beggar's Sect has any difficulties in the future, you have to help a few times.
"I'm not qualified to be the leader of Beggar's Sect. I still help the disciples handle those matters. I have to cover it up three times. No matter how much you learn, you're not allowed to spread it. Of course, you can use it yourself.”
Hong Qigong said,
After all, Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms was not a dog beating stick, and the rules were not that strict.
" Really? Thank you, Senior. Don't worry. As long as I encounter Beggar's Sect's matters, I will definitely take action. I will definitely not ignore it," Li Zhichang promised.
" Alright, I'll demonstrate it to you first." Hong Qigong's aura changed after he finished speaking. He struck out the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms one palm after another.
Li Zhichang looked at the palm technique. Quan Zhen Sect's palm technique was not even 10% comparable to it. If it clashed head-on with Hong Qigong's 'Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms', how could he survive?
It was indestructible. Although the moves were limited, each move was extremely powerful.
"Kid, look carefully. This move is very difficult. The proud dragon has regrets. It's one thing to see the move clearly, but if you don't understand the meaning, you'll never be able to learn it.
This move was called 'The Proud Dragon Regrets.' The essence of this palm technique was not the word 'Proud' but the word 'regret'. If one only wanted to be fast and fierce, anyone would be able to use it as long as they had a few hundred pounds of brute force.
'The proud dragon has regrets, and it can't last long.' Therefore, there must be a limit to what he can do. Ten percent of the force was used, but twenty percent remained in his body.
The day you understand the taste of regret, you will have learned 30% of this move. It was like an aged wine, it was not spicy on the mouth, but the aftertaste was incomparably mellow. That was because of the word 'regret'. Whatever happens in the world, once it reaches the peak, it will decline. My Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms is based on the principles of the Book of Changes. The Book of Changes emphasized on the fact that 'extreme prosperity comes from misfortune, and extreme adversity comes from peace'.
The logic of 'the proud dragon has regrets' was to retreat before reaching the peak. This was a martial art that could win without losing. His martial arts were invincible. Wasn't that amazing enough? Even if we are really going to lose, it doesn't matter. The aftereffects we left behind are still very deep.””
Hong Qigong said,
Li Zhichang nodded thoughtfully. Hong Qigong did not care if Li Zhichang understood or not and continued,
"The principle behind Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms is very profound. Back then, when my teacher taught me, I thought that the stronger the palm strike, the better. I used all my strength and slapped my teacher heavily a few times.'The essence of this palm technique is exactly the opposite of the theory of the bull hitting the wall.
Even if you had a few thousand pounds or ten thousand pounds of strength, there would be a time when you would use it all. If the enemy was an expert, he would suddenly counterattack the moment you used up all your strength. You would have already used up all your ten thousand pounds of strength, and there would not even be a few taels of silver left. He would only need to use three pounds of strength to defeat your ten thousand pounds of strength.
'The Arrogant Dragon Regrets was the foundation of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. As long as one understood this move, the remaining seventeen moves would not be difficult.‘Kang 'meant extremely mighty, extremely divine, extremely high, and extremely powerful. A divine dragon flew high into the sky, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws. It was extremely powerful, but at this moment, its power had reached its peak. From then on, it could only retreat and not advance.
The word 'regret' was to know that after strength comes weakness. When a large ship was sailing smoothly, it was very easy for it to hit rocks and capsize. One had to leave some leeway when doing things.”
"I understand. Your explanation is very detailed. It's ten times better than my fourth master, Qiu Chuji, and about the same as Martial Uncle Ma Yu."
The next move was " Flying Dragon in the Sky. This move jumps into the air and attacks from high above. Its power is extremely great..."
"Divine Dragon Wags Tail…"
"When Hong-chien was on land, he waded across a great river, came out of nowhere, shocked a hundred li, treaded on frost and ice, or jumped into the abyss, two dragons took water, a fish jumped into the abyss, saw a dragon in the field, rode six dragons at a time, dense clouds do not rain, damage is a blessing, a dragon fights in the wild, a hidden dragon is not used, a sheep touches the barbarians..."
After the eighteen palm strikes,
Li Zhichang quickly memorized. His memory was better than others by dozens of times. When he was three years old, Ma Yu asked him to memorize 3,000 words of the Innate Skills. In less than four hours, he had memorized it perfectly.
Now that he was seventeen, his spiritual power was much stronger than when he was three years old. He used this side and remembered it deeply in his mind.
"Kid, how much do you remember? This is the first time. I'll say it three times.”Hong Qigong said,
Li Zhichang said respectfully," Yes, I've memorized a lot, especially these moves. I want to deepen my memory. How about this? I'll practice Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, and you can give me some pointers!”
Hong Qigong said in surprise," Kid, you can play it after watching it once. That's fine too. Play it once and let me see!”
"Alright, I won't accept it.”Li Zhichang used his lightness skill to fly straight up to Sanchang, then used his qi to clap. "Flying Dragon in the Sky!" This move was perfect. After all, compared to other palm techniques, this move was simpler.
Hong Qigong was extremely shocked." Good, good kid. Did you learn the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms long ago? How did you learn it so quickly..."
"Senior, don't be anxious. There's still more. Divine Dragon Wags Tail!”
"It's beneficial to cross the river."
"Shocking a hundred miles!"
"See the dragon in the field!"
"Fish leaping into the abyss!"
……
"The Mighty Dragon Regrets!"
Although there were many flaws in the 18 moves, it was already something that Hong Qigong had practiced for more than ten years.
Hong Qigong exclaimed in amazement," Kid, I really suspect that you've learned the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms long ago. Otherwise, how could you have learned it so quickly? It was simply shocking and unbelievable!”
" Senior, don't be like this. This is really the first time I've learned this divine skill. After all, without senior's knowledge of these techniques and some special methods of luck, I wouldn't have been able to learn it so quickly," Li Zhichang said.
This time, he had learned the complete Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, so he was very excited. He had made a killing.
Hong Qigong felt that he was at a disadvantage. He thought,'If I demonstrate the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms three times, you will at most learn the surface of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. I didn't expect that I would miscalculate. I didn't need to demonstrate it three times or two times. In just one time, I learned all of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. I've suffered a huge loss.'
"Kid, this is your opportunity. I've already told you not to use martial arts to harm people in the Beggar's Sect. Of course, it's basically impossible to use martial arts to harm people.”Hong Qigong said.
