Jin Yong's top ten martial arts masters: one dog, one immortal, two demons, three monks, and three paths

author:History Book Lingxuan Pavilion

10, Oriental Undefeated (Sunflower Demon, one of the two demons)

In the battle of Blackwood Cliff, Dongfang was undefeated and single-handedly single-handedly picking up the four masters of Linghu Chong, Let Me Go, Xiang Wentian and Shangguan Yun. An embroidery needle, flying like a dragon in his hand, forced the four top masters to retreat step by step. The undefeated martial arts of the East are indeed unfathomable and breathtaking.

But it is rumored in the rivers and lakes that if the East is undefeated and holds a sword, seven or eight will not be its enemies, which is an exaggeration. In the original book, Dongfang Undefeated himself also admitted frankly that he had done his best in the face of these masters. Although the undefeated martial arts of the East are high, they also have their limits.

The essence of the Sunflower Treasure Book lies in swordsmanship, but when martial arts are cultivated to the realm, the difference between weapons is minimal. Dongfang Undefeated chose to use needles just because it was more suitable for himself. If he wields a sword, his combat power may reach a hundred; empty-handed, ninety-eight; And with a needle, ninety-nine. Subtle differences, negligible.

9. Wine Fighting Monk (one of the three monks)

Fighting Monk, a legendary figure with a mysterious background, spanned the three major fields of Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism in his life, and each identity condensed his views on life and martial arts. The unexpected wine fight with Wang Chongyang pushed his reputation to a new height.

Under the sunset, the fighting monk and Wang Chongyang raised their glasses to drink. Wang Chongyang, this martial arts giant, has perfected his internal and external skills. However, the strength of the fighting monk is unfathomable. With the passing of several rounds of wine, Wang Chongyang gradually felt overwhelmed by the strength of the wine, and the fighting monk still looked as usual. When Wang Chongyang finally put down the wine glass, the wine monk just smiled slightly, as if he had already understood the ending.

In the case of drinking to half-drunk, the fighting monk took a few glances at the "Nine Yin True Scripture", and he could see the shortcomings and drawbacks in it, so he wrote down the "Jiuyang Divine Skill". This kind of martial arts realm is far better than Wang Chongyang.

8, Huang Shang (one of the three ways)

Huang Shang, a civil official under Song Huizong, actually realized when he was sorting out the Taoist classics, and comprehended a set of martial arts skills on his own. At the behest of Huizong, he set foot in martial arts and fought against Mingjiao. Although he beheaded several Dharma kings and Dharma protectors, he was jointly pursued by Mingjiao and various factions in the rivers and lakes, and had to hide in the deep mountains and forests.

After forty years of painstaking cultivation, Huang Shang finally created a broad and profound martial arts secret book. This sutra records the opponent's moves and mental techniques, and also incorporates his own martial arts comprehension. This secret book, which was named "Nine Yin True Scripture", caused an uproar as soon as it came out, and the heroes were in dispute, and they did not hesitate to fight bloodily to win this scripture.

The mystery of the Nine Yin True Scripture lies in its integration of Taoist thought and various martial arts moves, both profound internal strength and mental method, and contains rich martial arts, forming an all-encompassing martial arts book, which is distinctly different from martial arts such as toad gong and dragon descending eighteen palms.

7, Zhang Sanfeng (one of the three ways)

When Zhang Sanfeng was young, he swept away the evil spirits, and all the demon masters couldn't raise their heads, and was known as the "Jiazi Demon Sweeper". In the sky, Zhang Sanfeng is 100 years old, and his swordsmanship has reached the realm. The wooden sword in his hand, although it is not as sharp as an iron sword, contains endless mysteries. The wooden sword seems to be the condensation of Zhang Sanfeng's century-old cultivation, and every time it dances, it tells the true meaning of swordsmanship.

Back then, Yang Guo held a heavy sword of Xuantie, crisscrossing the rivers and lakes, which belonged to his "heavy sword realm". Then, Yang Guo's swordsmanship improved, and gradually abandoned the shackles of the heavy sword, and moved towards the "Wooden Sword Realm". However, even though Yang Guo later switched to the Gloomy Ecstasy Palm, when facing a master like the Golden Wheel Dharma King, he still missed the sword he had never carried. It can be seen that although Yang Guo is strong, he has not yet touched the mystery of the "swordless realm".

And Zhang Sanfeng's wooden sword is already approaching the threshold of "no sword realm". It is not only the pinnacle of swordsmanship, but also the realm of the unity of the soul and the way of the sword. Zhang Sanfeng's sword is no longer a sword, but the perception and pursuit of his century-old life.

6. Sweeping monk (one of the three monks)

Readers of "Tianlong Babu" may be familiar with the sentence "one monk, two hanging, three old and four unique", in which "one monk" naturally refers to the hidden sweeping monk.

In the battle of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, the sweeping monk instantly quelled a bloody dispute with his shocking martial arts. The sweeping monk gently raised an invisible wall of qi, and Xiao Feng and Murong Fu's stunts dissipated invisibly in front of this wall. Then, with a slight palm, the sweeping monk made masters like Murong Bo and Xiao Yuanshan fall like fallen leaves. Then, the sweeping monk woke the two up like a miracle.

The internal force of the sweeping monk seems to be like a mountain into the sea, unfathomable. Just like Zhang Sanfeng's pure yang Wuji skill, or Dugu's unspecified peerless internal strength, the sweeping monk must also have his own unique secrets. His light palm seemed to be weak, but it actually contained earth-shattering power, and even Xiao Feng's eighteen dragon descending palms failed to shake him in the slightest.

5, Dugu seeks defeat (sword demon, one of the two demons)

In the deep sword mound, Dugu Qiu Qiu left behind not only four legendary swords, but also the fivefold artistic conception of his life's swordsmanship. The Qingyu Sword, which was the sharpness and edge of his youth, represents the years of competing with the heroes.

Although the crape myrtle soft sword is no longer there, its former agility and changes are just like his extreme pursuit of moves before the age of thirty. The Xuantie heavy sword symbolizes his transformation of simplifying the complex and making internal force king, and the indomitable momentum is fully displayed.

And the wooden sword reveals his superb control of internal force, and everything can be the realm of the sword. However, the highest realm is no sword, and the martial arts that have no tricks to win is the ultimate understanding of his swordsmanship.

This fivefold sword realm is like an evolutionary history of martial arts, from sharp to strong, and then to invisible, every step is a deeper comprehension of martial arts. Yang Guo got this meaning, and based on this, he deduced the peerless martial arts of the ecstasy palm.

4, Shi Potian (a dog)

Brother Dog, Shi Potian, has several peerless martial arts. Yan Yan Gong, Arhat Demon Subduing Divine Skill, Taixuan Jing makes its strength extraordinary.

I don't need to say much about how strong Brother Dog is, let's see how Mr. Jin Yong described it in the original book of "Chivalrous Journey".

The swordsmanship of the second sentence alone "Wu Hook Frost Xueming" has a total of twenty or thirty swords, Shi Potian has cultivated to fourteen swords and found that the internal force is urgent, and the "Baishou Taixuan Sutra" is the martial arts of the last stone room, which can string hundreds of acupoints throughout the body into an internal breath, and the internal breath is surging and surging like a big river. After all the training, the right hand holds the empty sword, and although there is no sword in the hand, the sword moves come out in a steady stream. Swordsmanship, palm technique, internal strength, and light skill are all combined into one, and it has long been impossible to distinguish whether it is a palm or a sword. Do whatever you want, you don't have to think about it, you don't need to memorize the tricks, and the thousands of moves on the stone wall naturally pass from the heart to the siblings. Moreover, the stronger Shi Potian's strength is, the stronger the enemy's attack, the stronger the counterattack.

3, A Qing (one immortal)

Ah Qing, the land sword immortal in Jin Yong's martial arts. In the story of "Yue Nu Sword", Ah Qing met a white ape while herding sheep. Ah Qing used a bamboo stick to confront the bamboo branch of the white ape, and unintentionally realized a set of exquisite swordsmanship.

Fan Li, who met A Qing on the street and easily subdued the swordsman of Wu State, was deeply amazed by her swordsmanship. Although Ah Qing is not good at teaching martial arts, her shadow of swordsmanship is enough to make the swordsmen of the Yue Kingdom realize new martial arts, so as to help the Yue Kingdom win the battle of Wu and Yue.

In the interaction with Fan Li, feelings quietly took root in A Qing's heart. When the Yue Kingdom captured the palace of Wu State, Ah Qing entered the palace alone with a bamboo stick, and the weapons of the soldiers were like paper paste in front of her, and her figure shuttled quickly in the palace, like a gust of wind, unpredictable, and achieved two thousand armor with one sword. And the confrontation between her and Xi Shi left a good story of "Xizi holds his heart", which may be the traces of the sword qi.

2. Bodhidharma Patriarch (one of the three monks)

Create Shaolin 72 stunts, martial arts.

At the top of Songshan Mountain, Bodhidharma Patriarch faced the wall for 18 years, and finally realized a set of secrets that combined swordsmanship and internal strength, called "Bodhidharma One Hundred and Eight Styles". This swordsmanship, hidden deep in the "Dharma Yijin Sutra", is rumored to contain not only exquisite swordsmanship, but also palm techniques and swords and other martial arts, each move and style can be derived from endless changes.

This set of swordsmanship, with static braking and energy in qi, has great benefits for the cultivation of internal strength. The ingenuity of its body and footwork is also unattainable by other swordsmanship. However, it has always been the hand of Buddhism, and compassion runs through it, and it only needs to subdue the enemy without seeking to harm people's lives.

1, Xiaoyaozi (one of the three ways)

In the ancient Northern Song Dynasty, there was a master known as Xiaoyaozi, who had three disciples under his disciples: Tianshan Tongmao, Wuyazi, and Li Qiushui. Legend has it that he passed on the mantle to Muyazi and gifted him the precious Ring of Seven Treasures. There are different theories about the origin of the Xiaoyao School, one says that it came from the Vulture Palace in the depths of the Tianshan Mountains, and the other is related to a mysterious valley in Yunnan.

The mysterious valley, formerly known as the Immortal Changchun Valley, has a long life for the valley people, and the centenarians are still as young as youth. Legend has it that there was a strange book in the valley that recorded the art of immortality, which was later taken away by Xiaoyaozi, leaving only a fountain of youth. This matter is engraved on the stone: "The divine book has gone with the masters, and only the Changchun Spring is left in the valley."

In the world of "Dragon Babu", Xiaoyaozi and sweeping monks are listed as extraordinary masters, one is hidden in Taoism, and the other is hidden in Buddhism. In the book, the figure of the sweeping monk appears frequently, and the Xiaoyaozi is dream-like and evokes reverie. Jin Yong's brushwork of combining fiction and reality depicts the images of two unfathomable masters, which is endlessly evocative.
