    Default Passing on Inner Power

    In DGSD, XZ, with virtually no skills of his own, had 3 experts pass on their inner power to him. So such a thing is possible.

    So theoretically, XZ or DY at their death beds, should be able to pass on all their accumulated inner power to a designated heir. This heir would presumably receive the inner power of 3 Elders plus any that XZ might have accumulated in his lifetime. And that heir on his death bed would be able to pass on the power of 3 Elders, XZ, and his own to the next heir.

    Would there be any logical limit to how much inner power could be obtained in this fashion given enough generations?

    It seems that passing on inner power (e.g. to heal) was possible for most people but its not permanent. i.e. Xiao Feng passed his power to Ah Zhu to help her injury but Ah Zhu did not gain a permanent inner power increase. Yi Deng healed HR but she did not get a power boost from it.

    When WYZ passed his power to Xu Zhu, he used his Bei Ming (not explicitly stated but its just assumed) Shen Gong to transfer it.

    What XZ got from TSTL and LQS was a freak accident. They might not have been able to pass the power to him under normal circumstances.

    DY learned only a fragment of Bei Ming Shen Gong so its not clear if he has the ability to transfer his power permanently.

    I guess there should be some limit to inner power before the person blows up, gets glowing red eyes or dies from fire deviation.

    The internal energy was directed to the injured parts or organ and used to heal them. That's why the they did not gain permanent internal energy increase.

    I think it's possible for anyone to pass their internal energy, if they know the right way. Maybe the passer have to open the circulation(internal energy circulation??) of his & the acceptor and then pass the energy throughout the circulation of the acceptor.

    Don't think its so easy. Power mad people like RWX, TSTL , DCQ etc etc would be forcing their disciples to pay a tax of say 20% per year in energy to them if it was possible without elite skills like Bei Ming.

    To be more specific, the healer send energy into the internal energy circulation or injured parts of the circulatory system not to any organ.

    Physical injuries to the internal body or organ, can not be healed by energy. It is treated with medicine or usually the person die.

    An injured person would have lost control of their internal energy, and the energies are just moving randomly. So a healer would try to use his own energy regulated those energies back to normal. Or the injured person is low in energy, so the healer would give him some energy to support his life, until he was strong enough to regenerate his own.

    Another possible injury is the injured, had his or her internal energy pathway suppressed or blocked. So the healer in this case would tries to open them. Another example is Yi Deng healing Huang Rong.



    For the transferring of energy, I think before most people died, their energy is already depleted. If they still have a lot energy, IMO, they wouldn't die.

    Does anyone know how long the power transfer from WYZ to XZ took? The main problem I have with this scenario is that the 100 years (whatever figure it was) of inner power needs a vessel capable of supporting it. I presume that the transfer process would need to deal with this issue.

    I can't think how this is addressed for someone like DY who practiced BMSG where the basic premise was to empty the "qi ocean" (or something like that) so that the "higher potential" inner power flowed to "ground".

    Maybe some qigong practioners can comment on "real life" theories? Is the dantien an infinite vessel or is it something that must be refined so that it's capacity is increased the more you practice qigong?

    Um, this really cliche plot device used to justify the "power up" of previously weak characters really shouldn'be abused any more than it has been.

    transfering power doesn't increase your power just like that. there are some rules. firstly, you can only transfer your pure energy which is accumalated by years of practise. transfering it will weaken you. when cheng kun helped ZWJ break through his vital blood points, he had to pass some of his energy which was scarificed to wuji. but wuji's power did not increase as much. he gained only part of what was transfered. cheng kun would have to practise his inner power for a few months at least to recover what he had scarificed. when ZSF and the wwudang hero's used their pure energy to remove the xuan ming energy from wuji, the energy the sent was nullified. not absorded. but when miejiu hit wuji with her 9yang gong, he absorbed it fully because his inner power circilation matched the energy she used and it flowed into the right channnels.
    when passing energy, to benefit from it, the energy must be sent into the proper channels or the energy would waste itself after some (breathe)circilations. most times the energy is used to break to the vital points and clear blockages so inner power can flow more easily. then the beneficary can continue to cultivate his own power more easily and faster. when duan yu absorbed the inner power from the exponents, the energy was trapped in his vital flows because there were blockages in his channels and accuipoints that he did not have enough pure energy of his own to clear. afer learning 6MDS, he cleared his accupoints and sent the energy to the proper channels. after that he could absorb energy more easily and cultivate it. ah zhu didn't gain increased power from XF because the energy he passed went to keeping her vital organs working. he didn't direct any to her 'channels'. XuZhu absorbed TSTL and LQS's energy because he had the technique to practise their energy and because he was in the middle, the power was trapped in him and he had no choice but to send it into his energy channels or die.
