Daily Evolution from Mastering Tai Chi-Chapter 111: The Connection Between Light Body Technique and Flying

Chapter 111: Chapter 111: The Connection Between Light Body Technique and Flying

Wang Ye was certain that after training in the [Light Body Technique], his body indeed became much lighter.

However, this actually had only a negligible impact on his maximum running speed.

Because when humans run at maximum speed, the thrust provided by the thigh muscles is extremely overwhelming, thereby requiring a certain level of body weight and inertia to provide enough downforce to prepare for the upcoming acceleration. Being too light, on the contrary, brings adverse effects.

It’s like a racing car; when the horsepower is strong enough, it instead needs sufficient body weight and the downforce airflow from the rear wing to increase tire friction.

Some even lay a sticky adhesive layer on straight-line acceleration tracks to increase tire grip, preventing the car from flipping due to excessive speed increase causing it to lift from the ground.

Therefore, this so-called "lightness", in most cases, can only enhance his flexibility and maneuverability but doesn’t improve his maximum achievements in various track and field events.

Thinking of this.

Wang Ye looked at the rugged and winding path before him and decided to test his current evading abilities.

He suddenly accelerated and sprinted, weaving through the gaps between countless tree trunks, his movements incredibly light and full of speed, as if he had turned into an afterimage, leaping and soaring between the branches. Truly a feeling of "Flying Swallow’s Curtain-Piercing Technique" as described in the light body technique introduction.

If before, a car traveling at a hundred miles per hour raced towards him, he would be unprepared and knocked flying. But now, facing a vehicle at the same speed, he could manage to narrowly evade it using the "Light Body Technique".

Immediately after.

Wang Ye arrived at the rock wall, preparing to test his "Wall-Climbing and Roof-Jumping" skill again.

Using the inertia of the run-up, he suddenly stepped onto the wall, then employed the "Qi Lifting and Light Body" technique, controlling his entire magnetic field to converge at the Baihui Acupoint, and suddenly his body felt as light as if it had shed several dozen pounds, bounding effortlessly over ten steps on the rock wall.

It wasn’t until he reached eight or nine meters that Wang Ye finally couldn’t hold on any longer and began to fall.

He quickly did a backflip, landing on the ground.

Bam!

A cloud of dust exploded.

The intense impact made his knees tingle with numbness.

Wang Ye sat on the ground, rubbing his patella, and looked up at the rock wall, estimating the distance somewhat.

"About two to three meters higher than before practicing the light body technique, the improvement is indeed evident."

After testing these things.

Wang Ye took off his clothes and with a "splash" jumped into the lake, spending two hours training the [Throwing] skill using the steel nails and screw caps he carried with him.

It wasn’t until the sky was completely dark that he climbed ashore and roasted the fifteen fish he had caught to eat.

During the process of grilling the fish, his [Cooking] serendipitously leveled up to lv3.

Wang Ye felt that his mind was filled with countless cooking skills and recipes, even mixed with some basic knowledge of nutrition. Simultaneously, his requirements for the color, aroma, and taste of food also became much more picky.

He could clearly recall the taste of every dish from the restaurant he ate at for lunch. The food he thought was quite good at the time now seemed extremely crude and tasteless to him.

"My cooking skills should be at the level of a street-side restaurant chef now..." Wang Ye muttered to himself, "Although still not comparable to top chefs at a national banquet, I have at least surpassed those professional graduates from culinary schools."

Unfortunately, he doesn’t have a proper kitchen to experiment with his culinary skills right now. He could only taste his improvement in cooking through the campfire-cooked fish.

After finishing the grilled fish, Wang Ye tidied up his belongings a bit.

Then he went straight down the mountain, riding a shared bicycle back into the city.

On his way back, an idea suddenly struck him, and he spent over a hundred yuan in a mall to buy a bathroom scale.

After purchasing the scale, Wang Ye stuffed it into his satchel and continued cycling back to the hotel.

He went to the desk, installed four batteries in the back of the scale, and placed it on the floor. Preparing to test whether [Light Body Technique] truly could reduce his weight.

Wang Ye first stood barefoot on the scale, testing his weight without using Qi Lifting and Light Body.

The numbers on the scale flickered for a moment before settling at —

98.35kg

Because the density of his muscles and bones had been continuously increasing during this period, his weight was approaching two hundred pounds. However, fortunately, as his weight increased, his muscle strength also gradually rose, so his agility did not diminish but instead became more impressive than before.

Wang Ye jotted down this data in his notebook.

Then he stood on the scale again, ready to test his weight in the "Qi Lifting and Light Body" state.

He gradually mobilized his entire inner Qi——which is the magnetic field, converging thread by thread at the Baihui Acupoint. A slight sense of lightness suddenly filled his body. This is because the strong magnetic field movement affected the real-world matter, causing his body to generate a floating effect.

And the number on the scale also settled at —

95.98kg

"About... five pounds lighter!"

Wang Ye immediately showed a cheerful expression.

"It seems that the light body technique does indeed produce an effect similar to countering gravity, but the effect is not that significant."

Wang Ye understood that the reason this [Light Body Technique] could produce such a noticeable effect is that his own magnetic field concentration was many times higher than that of an ordinary person, and he had specifically trained many days of telekinesis techniques, so his magnetic field power was absolutely unparalleled. For an average person, even trying their best wouldn’t allow their weight to reduce by even half a pound.

He sat down heavily on the soft bed, beginning to ponder the uses of this light body technique.

So far, the main use of this light body technique was to slightly enhance his agility during parkour.

But if, as his skill and body magnetic field concentration continue to rise, could this [Light Body Technique] possibly evolve into a skill similar to [Flying]?

Although now he could only barely make his body five pounds lighter.

But, what if this effect were multiplied by a hundred times?

Wouldn’t he then be able to completely ignore the force of gravity?

Perhaps, he could race through the skies as fast as the "Superman" characters in superhero movies.

Thinking of this.

A deep sense of anticipation emerged in Wang Ye’s eyes.

Standing in front of the hotel balcony, he practiced Tai Chi and Golden Bell Shield for three hours.

Then he soaked in a medicinal bath, recovering from the injuries on his body.

By around midnight, Wang Ye finally went to bed and fell into a deep sleep.
