"Would you like to start cultivating now?"

Staring at the prompt in his vision, Lu Qing chose yes this time.

In the next moment, a torrent of information surged into his mind.

Various insights about the Health Nourishing Boxing emerged in his heart like a divine revelation.

Combining the previous guidance from his master at the Halfway House, Lu Qing instinctively began to practice the Health Nourishing Boxing.

First move, second move, third move...

This set of Health Nourishing Boxing seemed to have no specific names for each move, so Lu Qing could only refer to them in sequence.

He practiced slowly and somewhat awkwardly. After completing the ninth move, just as he was about to perform the tenth, his body felt a sharp ache.

Although he knew the key points of the tenth move in his mind, his body found it extremely difficult to execute.

Remembering his master's advice, Lu Qing realized that the moves beyond the ninth were beyond his current physical capabilities.

Forcing himself to practice could potentially harm his body.

He immediately stopped attempting the tenth move and started over from the first.

Thus, Lu Qing repeatedly practiced the Health Nourishing Boxing from the first to the ninth move.

Following the insights in his mind, his movements gradually became more fluid.

If someone had been watching, they would have noticed.

During his first attempt, Lu Qing's movements were stiff, his stances wobbly, and his forms crooked.

By the second attempt, his movements became noticeably smoother and his forms more precise.

By the third attempt, he was starting to show some proficiency, no longer appearing clumsy.

Fourth attempt...

Fifth attempt...

With each repetition, Lu Qing made visible progress.

By the ninth attempt, his movements were exceptionally fluid, his transitions natural, and his forms precise, giving a pleasing visual effect.

It seemed as if he had immersed himself in this set of fist techniques for a long time.

After completing the ninth attempt, Lu Qing instinctively stopped, gradually closing his stance.

Once finished, he exhaled a warm breath.

He felt his breath smooth, his spirit calm, his whole body warm and comfortable.

Filled with joy, Lu Qing realized that he had grasped some of the essentials of the first nine moves of the Health Nourishing Boxing.

If he continued to practice diligently, it wouldn’t be long before he could step into the realm of Qi and Blood as his master had mentioned.

Simultaneously, Lu Qing also began to understand the nature of his ability to simulate cultivation methods.

In essence, after the ability simulates a cultivation method, it doesn’t allow him to master it directly.

Instead, it presents the key points and insights of the cultivation method in his mind as guidance.

This enables him to understand the method more quickly.

However, to truly master it, to internalize it, he still needs to train diligently himself.

Just like now, his mind was filled with insights into the Health Nourishing Boxing.

But he still needed to practice repeatedly to digest these insights and strengthen himself.

"Gurgle..."

Lu Qing's stomach growled.

Feeling the hunger in his belly, he knew that the recent training had consumed a lot of his energy.

Recalling his master's advice, he returned to the house and retrieved a piece of cured meat made a few days ago.

He also caught a two to three-pound fish from the kitchen barrel that he had caught the day before.

Then he picked some wild vegetables from the yard.

The vegetables he had planted were just starting to sprout, so he had to eat wild vegetables for now.

With the ingredients ready, Lu Qing started cooking.

First, he washed the pot and steamed the rice. Once the rice was almost done, he began to cook the dishes.

Not long after, a dish of stir-fried wild vegetables with cured meat and a steamed fish were ready.

Just as he placed the dishes on the table, Xiao Yan came out of her room, rubbing her eyes.

"Xiao Yan, you're awake. Are you hungry? I was just about to call you."

The little one touched her belly and earnestly replied, "I think I'm hungry."

"If you're hungry, come and eat," Lu Qing said with a smile.

Children are truly fascinating. She had just had snacks at the master's place before her nap.

But soon after waking up, she was already hungry again.

After a bowl of rice, Lu Qing felt significantly less hungry and let out a long sigh.

Except for the first two days after waking up, it had been a long time since he felt this hungry.

It was evident how much energy his training had consumed earlier.

Lu Qing ate several bowls of rice and finished all the dishes without leaving any leftovers.

After the meal, he reclined on a lounge chair, digesting his food while pondering over the day's events.

A lot had happened today, and he needed to organize his thoughts.

Firstly, there was the change in his status.

He had finally become the disciple of the old doctor. With this identity, he had a foothold in this foreign world.

He was no longer like a rootless duckweed, unsure of his future path.

Secondly, there was the information about martial artists that his master had mentioned.

The martial artists in this world were even more powerful than Lu Qing had imagined.

Based on his master's description of the different levels of Postnatal martial artists, Lu Qing could feel that these martial artists possessed extraordinary strength and resilience.

Not to mention the higher-level Precelestial martial artists.

From his master's words, it seemed that Precelestial martial artists could even suppress the fortune of a nation.

The martial path could indeed cultivate individuals to such a powerful extent. It was impossible for Lu Qing not to yearn for it.

Therefore, he decided to focus primarily on martial arts cultivation and supplement it with medical studies in the coming days.

Since he had the ability, balancing both would not be difficult for him.

Given his decision to practice martial arts, he needed to consider other matters as well.

After the meal, Lu Qing estimated that as he gradually mastered the Health Nourishing Boxing and formally entered the Qi and Blood realm, his appetite would increase significantly.

In that case, the daily nutritional intake for his diet would need to be ensured.

As the saying goes, "A scholar needs wealth to support his study of martial arts." Maintaining the daily consumption needed for martial arts training would likely be costly.

He wondered how long the silver from selling the Red Moon Carp would last.

Lu Qing decided to try his luck again at the strange fish fishing spot in a few days.

If he was lucky enough to catch one or two more strange fish, he wouldn't have to worry about finances for a while.

After pondering these matters, Lu Qing remembered the issue concerning his original parents.

Based on what Old Zhang had said, it was clear that there was more to the death of his original parents.

However, Lu Qing did not plan to investigate this matter for the time being.

Unless he made significant achievements in martial arts in the future and became strong enough, he might seek the truth for Xiao Yan's sake.

For now, he decided to live his life peacefully.

After thinking for a while in the lounge chair, Lu Qing felt he had digested his food enough.

Then he took out the book his master had given him before he left the mountain.
