In most of Jin Yong's martial arts novels, he expounds on the importance of internal skills. Indeed, internal gong, as a kind of martial arts, is the root of walking the rivers and lakes and being proud of the crowd. Only by practicing internal skills to the realm of reaching the pinnacle of perfection can we stand out in this chaotic world.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="2" > the importance of internal power</h1>
Guo Jing in the archery era was originally a martial artist, and learned to descend the Eighteen Palms of the Dragon with the help of Huang Rong, but for Wu Jie and Qiu Qianling, Guo Jing, who did not have the blessing of internal strength, was still a second-rate master.
By chance, Guo Jing obtained a complete set of the Nine Yin True Scriptures. After mastering the meaning of the Nine Yin True Scriptures, Guo Jing's internal skills made a qualitative leap. From then on, Guo Jing's Eighteen Palms of descending dragons had 13 strands of staying power, and even Ouyang Feng, who was practicing the Nine Yin True Scriptures in reverse, suffered a big loss, and after the palm was neutralized, he could only hide in the Iron Gun Temple to heal his wounds.
Yang Guo in the era of the divine carving was the same, although the external skills and light skills of the Tomb Sect were known for their lightness and swiftness, but suffering from the lack of thick internal strength as a foundation, Yang Guo, who was the head of the hundred families, had also been wandering among the second-rate masters.
It wasn't until Yang Guo met the eagle brother in the valley, who under the guidance of the eagle brother took snake bile and practiced the sword in the flash flood, that he realized the XuanTie sword method that was not working.
Thanks to the fact that the internal skills had reached the realm where they could not be practiced, Yang Guo had the opportunity to create his own martial arts by the seaside: he was overwhelmed. The Eclipsed Soul Palm is also a fierce palm technique, which requires the caster to have an endless stream of internal strength.
Coincidentally, as the protagonist of "Yitian Slaughtering Dragon", Zhang Wujie, he also benefits from having a thick internal strength. When he picked up the Nine Yang True Scriptures in the Kunlun Wonderland, after several years of hard practice, his internal skills reached the realm of Zhen Gu Shuo, which was the earth-shattering feat of moving Qiankun to the seventh layer in a single incense time!

However, in the era of archery, there was a master who was so out of place, he was one of the five best Eastern Evil Yellow Medicine Masters. Zhou Botong once told Guo Jing that in order to compete for the Nine Yin True Scriptures, many masters fought for seven consecutive days and seven nights at the top of Mount Hua. In the end, Wang Chongyang won the title of the first in the world with the "Tiantian Gong" and won the title of the first in the world.
Looking at the Western Poison Ouyang Feng, he made a toad skill known for his bravery and enterprising, and he also needed a strong internal force as the foundation to be able to exert its effect, otherwise how to fight continuously for seven days and seven nights?
The same is true of the Seven Dukes of Beiqi Hong, his Descending Dragon Eighteen Palms are extremely "blue-consuming", if there is no powerful internal skill as an auxiliary, his Descending Dragon Eighteen Palms can only be like the end of the strong crossbow.
This is especially true of the Yiyang finger of the Southern Emperor Duan Zhixing, and Jin Yong wrote in the original text: The use of a yang finger is extremely draining, and the continuous use of small is a total loss of strength, and the large is life-threatening. After practicing to Dacheng, it can hurt people in the air and be extremely powerful.
Among the five masters, only Huang Yaoshi used qiaojin, and his martial arts path was also based on "softness". Although Huang Yaoshi was a sect of his own, and the martial arts he knew were also profound and profound, compared with the other four absolutes, Huang Yaoshi's internal strength was slightly inferior, and what did he rely on to stand on the top of Mount Hua and fight with the other four masters for seven days and seven nights?
What is even more interesting is that whether it is the old five or the new five, Huang Yaoshi is also the only one who does not learn the Nine Yin True Scriptures. Without the blessing of the Nine Yin True Scriptures, Huang Yaoshi's internal strength must be to sail against the current and retreat if he does not advance, how can he still sit on an equal footing with Zhou Botong, Yang Guo, Guo Jing, and Master Yilan?
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="17" > third, Zhang Wuji, who knows the true meaning of martial arts</h1>
In fact, Jin Yong once used a sentence from Zhang Wuji in "The Book of the Dragon Slaughtering in the Heavens" to reveal the answer to this question.
It turned out that after Zhang Wuji had studied the full set of the Nine Yang True Classics, he quickly practiced the Qiankun Great Shift to the top level. At this point, the young Zhang Wujie had become a martial arts "little master", and he only needed to look at the opponent's moves to know whether the person's internal strength was deep or shallow, and whether the moves were clever or clumsy.
By chance, Zhang Wuji saw Zhao Min practicing under the guidance of the Second Elder Xuan Di from a distance. Looking at Zhao Min's moves and actions, Zhang Wuji pointed out the drawbacks to the point - Zhang Wujie said: "Zhao Minxian is insufficient in internal strength, and he knows that it is difficult to achieve quickly, so he wants to learn the strengths of the moves of the various sects and become a generation of masters; he thinks that this road can also be feasible, and when the tricks are practiced to the extreme, they can make up for the lack of skill." ”
It can be seen that in the martial arts world set by Jin Yong, people who are not strong in internal skills also have the opportunity to become first-class masters, that is, to practice their moves to the extreme, and they can make up for their shortcomings in internal skills by virtue of the ingenuity of their moves.
Like Zhao Min, although Huang Yaoshi's internal skills were relatively weak compared to the other four masters, Huang Yaoshi was proficient in a variety of martial arts, whether it was the Orchid FlickIng Hand, the Whirlwind Leaf Sweeping Leg, or the Magic Finger and the Jade Sword Technique, he had practiced the moves to the realm of divinity.
Therefore, when Huang Yaoshi was fighting with a master with strong internal skills, he could make good use of the subtle mysteries of the tricks and finally occupy a place in the jianghu.
Guys, what do you think?
