Chapter 225 Self-created Divine Ability (1)

After dealing with some trivial matters, Eric finally returned to the quiet room in the Living Buddha's bedroom to continue studying those martial arts and divine abilities!After reading all the parchment scrolls, Eric did not find a way to directly resurrect his mother, Eric Olivia. However, he also learned from those classics that such divine abilities did exist at one point but disappeared due to reasons similar to Xiarongbu Living Buddha's.

Since there isn't, then I'll create one myself!

That was Eric's idea. Although he knew that a divine ability, especially one with great power, could not be created casually! Those divine abilities from the past, which wise men at the Living Buddha level took decades or even generations to develop! Even though Eric was confident in his intelligence in this regard, he didn't dare to say that his one day of thinking could compare to the year-long efforts of those equally outstanding individuals!

However, if he didn't try, he would never be content! After all, this kind of re

All muscles work together to form an organic whole, determining a person's balance, movement energy, mobility, explosive power...

Only by understanding these can one avoid going astray in creating divine abilities or martial arts!

Of course, to create a divine ability, merely understanding human musculoskeletal anatomy is not enough, as the top martial arts are mostly internal styles, relying on acupoints and meridians!

As for human acupoints, there are about 52 single acupoints, 300 double acupoints, and 50 extraordinary acupoints outside the meridians, totaling 720 acupoints.

There are 108 vital acupoints, with 72 acupoints generally not lethal when struck, while the remaining 36 are lethal acupoints, commonly known as fatal points.

Each of the 720 acupoints has its own use, and even one acupoint can produce different effects depending on the intensity of the stimulation.

Not to mention, just understanding the 720 acupoints is not an easy task. Each acupoint could fill thick volumes of relevant information, and these are just a small part of the study of acupoints!

It is said that when the Jin Dynasty conquered the Northern Song Dynasty, they obtained a pair of bronze human models with acupoints from the imperial palace.

These bronze models, which were ingeniously crafted, had even more acupoints depicted on them than expected.

To verify the authenticity of the acupoint bronze models and the effects of those unknown acupoints, the Jin Dynasty invited countless medical experts and martial arts masters to conduct research.

However, it took three or four generations nearly a hundred years to fully understand this small pair of acupoint bronze models, until the Jin Dynasty was eventually swallowed by the Mongols! This shows how complex and difficult acupoints are to understand!

Eric originally planned to have the people from the Medicine King Sect send over some acupoint diagrams because he thought that a millennium-old medical family like the Medicine King Sect must have far superior research on acupoints than others.

But unexpectedly, he found records of the Jin Dynasty's research on acupoint bronze models in the Sakya's library. It seemed to have been bestowed by Kublai Khan to Khubilai, and it was much more detailed than the Medicine King Sect's acupoint diagrams! Naturally, Eric accepted it with a smile and briefly glanced at it.

In addition to acupoints, Eric also noticed meridians.

Meridians originated from traditional Chinese medicine. In traditional Chinese medicine, the human body is a microcosm of nature, and nature is the macrocosm. The earth has rivers, lakes, and seas.

The smooth flow of water on the earth's surface ensures environmental stability. The human body should also have channels for the circulation of qi and blood, which are called meridians in Chinese medicine. The vertical ones are called meridians, and the horizontal ones are called collaterals.

The smooth flow of meridians in the human body also ensures good health. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, there are twelve regular meridians used for acupuncture, plus the Governing Vessel and the Conception Vessel, totaling 14 sections, responsible for circulating blood and qi, nourishing Yin and Yang, managing a hundred diseases, and determining life and death.

Don't think that there are only 14 meridians, seeming to be few.

In fact, collaterals are just the main lines. In terms of complexity, meridians are only above acupoints.

Where there is an acupoint, there must be a meridian, but where there is a meridian, there may not necessarily be an acupoint.

Most of the ends of the meridians are deeply hidden in the body, with only about ten or twenty percent close to the surface.

In addition to acupoints and meridians, there are more complex studies such as tendons, lymphatic system, pituitary gland, glands... Their complexity is millions of times more precise than any mechanical system!

The complexity of these studies made Eric, who had once roamed the ever-changing magical world, feel extremely overwhelmed! Originally, he planned to spend a few days studying these aspects of knowledge and then create a martial art in the most effortless, safest, and most effective way possible!

However, he now had a clear understanding that a few days would only be enough to skim through these knowledge! To "study" this, even with Eric's photographic memory and deductive mind, it would probably take more than ten years to see results!

From then on, Eric temporarily abandoned his research plans and decided to draw on the research results of his predecessors! That is—The Muscle Tendon Change Classic!
