379: Chapter 379 Spirit Rhinoceros Spear Technique

If the first form, "Spirit Snake Tracking," is a "thrust," then the second form, "Butterflies Dancing in the Wind," is a "block."

Master Yang's body rotated lightly to the right, his feet stepping alternately like fluttering butterflies, driving his arms to swing the spear shaft.

The three-pointed double-edged spear used the butt of the spear as an axis, drawing circles rapidly, with the twin blades flashing cold light, just like butterfly wings flapping; it looked defensive but hid murderous intent.

"To practice this second form, focus on polishing the footwork and the rhythm of the arm circles. You can practice the footwork rhythm separately first, and once proficient, integrate the arm movements, repeating the cycle until the whole set is smooth and natural."

Master Yang continued to demonstrate for him.

The subsequent moves were Flying Swallow Sweeping the Clouds, Willow Branches Following the Wind, Cunning Rabbit's Three Changes, Shooting Star Chasing the Moon, Dragonfly Skimming the Water, and Clear Breeze Crossing the Bridge.

Master Yang dismantled and explained the moves one by one, then performed the entire set again completely.

Lin Chuyan watched, dazzled. Watching each move individually felt fierce, but seeing the whole set now, he realized... it was worthy of being an Acting routine that could win awards in competitions. It was beautiful, truly beautiful!

"How about it? Do you want to try?" Master Yang, whose age was showing, panted slightly as he asked.

"Come on!" Lin Chuyan didn't say he wouldn't practice just because he had a system; he honestly started practicing under Master Yang's guidance.

Master Yang nodded inwardly: It's not easy for a celebrity of such high status to be willing to endure such hardship. However, was Master Huang exaggerating too much? A martial arts prodigy? That's going too far... Old Huang, oh Old Huang, you can't just blindly praise someone just because they are a "top-tier celebrity," right?

An hour passed.

"Let's stop here for tonight. Since it's your first time practicing, you must know that too much is as bad as too little."

"Alright." Lin Chuyan agreed, then added a question, "Master Yang, does this spear technique you taught have a name?"

"Lingxi Spear Technique."

Lin Chuyan praised the name: "What a good name! 'Ling' points out the agility of this spear technique, while 'Xi' gives a sense of power and weight."

"Hah! It's just taken from the 'Lingxi' in the starting form 'Lingxi Gazing at the Moon,' don't overthink it."

"...Understood."

"Well, find me tomorrow night after you finish filming, shall we meet here again?"

"Okay, if there happen to be many night scenes or something comes up, I'll have my assistant contact you."

Master Yang nodded: "Alright, I'm off."

Lin Chuyan indeed needed to go back early.

In fact, he didn't feel very tired; his physical fitness was quite good now.

Whether it was his daily sword practice, boxing, or the training from his girlfriend, this level of exertion was nothing to him.

However, he needed to save his energy for his efforts in the dream.

[Immersive Deep Learning Card enabled: Target content "Lingxi Spear Technique", starting]

"Here it is, it's here again."

The person standing in front of him had changed from Master Huang to Master Yang, and the weapon in his hand had changed from a sword to a three-pointed double-edged spear.

Lin Chuyan took a step forward, and sure enough, he had possessed the body again.

Once, twice, three times. Every movement was standard.

As Lin Chuyan practiced, he felt the different force points of each move.

The key point of "Spirit Snake Tracking" lies in the "thrust"; "Butterflies Dancing in the Wind" lies in the "block"; "Flying Swallow Sweeping the Clouds" is the "lift."

"Willow Branches Following the Wind" sounds very gentle, but in reality, it is a chopping action like a saber.

With his legs slightly bent and his center of gravity lowered, Lin Chuyan felt something: the so-called Willow Branches Following the Wind is not about swaying gently with the wind, but refers to its great resilience. Combined with the posture of vertical chopping followed by horizontal chopping, the whole process flows like clouds and water, not appearing clumsy at all.

"Cunning Rabbit's Three Changes" is the same, it is also a "flick" in saber technique. First, thrust the spear forward swiftly to the left front, then immediately step back with the right foot, while turning the body to the right, changing the direction of the spear tip, and quickly flicking up from the lower right side to attack the opponent's abdomen, ribs, and other soft parts.

The left hand pushes the spear shaft forward violently, while the right hand pulls it skillfully, causing the spear tip to change direction again, thrusting directly at the opponent's throat, as agile and changeable as a cunning rabbit, catching the opponent off guard.

When it comes to the sixth form, "Shooting Star Chasing the Moon," it changes back to the "poke" in spear technique.

The so-called "Shooting Star Chasing the Moon" naturally requires a wide space. First, use the powerful momentum generated by running to thrust the spear tip forward violently! The attack target is locked on the opponent's lower limbs, forcing the opponent's footsteps to become chaotic and unbalanced.

Then suddenly raise the spear shaft, and the spear tip precisely picks towards the opponent's face. The attack rhythm is crisp and compact, giving the opponent no chance to catch their breath.

This move looks simple, but in reality, it is quite difficult to hold a three-pointed double-edged spear while sprinting a short distance, performing a thrust, and then changing the move.

Sprinting, thrusting, and raising to pick—this is a coherent combination. Only after repeated practice can one unify and coordinate the running posture and the spear-holding action.

The seventh form, "Dragonfly Skimming the Water," has similar difficulties to the third form, "Flying Swallow Sweeping the Clouds," as both incorporate jumping actions.

The last form is called "Clear Breeze Crossing the Bridge," which is actually the most difficult and the coolest looking—this move practices spinning the spear.

First, turn the body lightly, as if a clear breeze is blowing by. Then, the feet touch the ground lightly like a dragonfly skimming water, taking several steps to the front, holding the spear shaft with one hand, and the three-pointed double-edged spear draws several arcs by the side of the body, as if swaying with the wind.

Immediately after, take a big step forward with the left foot, the right foot follows quickly, and at the same time, both hands lift the spear shaft high above the head, as if building an invisible bridge.

One would think people walk on the bridge, but unexpectedly, it passes under the bridge.

One hour, two hours... Every movement was very standard, and having practiced countless times without feeling tired, Lin Chuyan's understanding of the three-pointed double-edged spear gradually deepened.

In terms of the characteristics of the "spear," moves like "Spirit Snake Tracking" and "Shooting Star Chasing the Moon" can use the length advantage of the spear shaft to achieve long-distance thrusts, hitting the opponent's vital points directly; this is consistent with the combat method of traditional long spears using the spear tip for piercing, exerting the advantage of spear-type weapons in attack distance.

From the perspective of the "saber," the head of the three-pointed double-edged spear has three points and two blades, so the twin blades must be utilized; moves like "Willow Branches Following the Wind" and "Cunning Rabbit's Three Changes" can perform chopping and flicking actions like a saber, possessing the slashing function of saber-type weapons.

This kind of integrated weapon can use the spear tip to complete precise and sharp piercing, and use the blades to perform forceful chopping, making it unique among cold weapons, and its combat power is not to be underestimated.

In summary, it is truly worthy of being favored by Erlang Shen and becoming the divine weapon in his hands.

And with this set of agile and sharp spear technique, Lin Chuyan can be said to be like a tiger with wings.

At the very least, completing the subsequent fight scenes will be no problem at all, and the final effect will definitely amaze everyone.

If he was originally just an empty shell, with the form but not the spirit, then after mastering the Lingxi Spear Technique, he truly possessed some of the charm of the Second Lord.

Lin "Martial Arts Prodigy" Chuyan is about to go online again.
