1. They are the most powerful over time
2. All other techniques are built on these as a foundation
3. Some techniques out there will not work until these are mastered
The Techniques:
Ki Punch: You will need to really be able to easily make a ki ball in one hand for this technique (not just imagine it but feel it). Make a ki ball in one hand. You can simply make it a normal ki ball or give it fire or electric properties (ice doesn't work well). Once you can feel the ball strike out at the target but don't close your hand into a fist until impact (this is important!). You do this to help send the ki into your target. Upon impact tightly clench your fist and imagine the Ki ball exploding on/inside the target. Remember good punching technique and punch through the target not at the target. Giving out a good yell really helps.
Ki Kick: This is much different from the ki punch because you don't make a ki ball. Instead you build up ki energy in your legs (yes both at the same time, to give you powerful balance and a powerful kick). Feel the energy extend into your legs and begin to vibrate at a high level. Kick through your target, and upon impact feel the ki explode into it. Again a good yell really helps.
Ki Shield: Place your right palm over your clenched left fist (reverse this if you are left handed). Imagine Ki coming up from your hara into your arm and out your hand. The Ki (best to imagine it as blue of the shield) the goes on to cover your left arm, shoulder, down your torso, down both legs, across your chest and back, up your neck to your head, and finally down your right shoulder and arm, to your right hand until finally blue ki covers your entire body. Imagine it becoming like a hard shell. This ki shield will protect from harmful attacking ki energy and psychic attack. It won't do much for physical attacks (that is what physical training is for).
Power Up : This technique is used to give you extra strength for a limited period of time. First you need to pick a saying that gets you reall fired up. Mystery Shadow liked to use "Stand tall and Shake the Heavens", but what ever works to get your adrenaline pumping is good ("I am the one, I am the power, this is the time, this is the hour" works well also). Use this saying as a mantra and repeat it over and over as you do the powerup it will assist in power accumulation.
As you inhale draw your stomach (lower abdomen) inward and extend it outward as you exhale. Imagine the Ki in your hara turning into flame and extending outward through your whole body. Once you can feel this warm quickly vibrating energy all over begin the mantra. As you begin the mantra imagine red Ki coming up from the earth around your feet and covering your entire body (maintain the fire ki sensation internally). Once the ki has covered your body tense all your muscles really hard for a moment and let out a strong Yell (Kiai - spirit yell). You should feel much stonger. This technique will not improve your ability to do a ki blast, in fact, it will hinder your ki blast ability. This technique improves overall physical strength not energy manipulation. The ki blast has its own power up methods.
Ki Blast: Yes the fabled and ultimately the most powerful technique ever devised. The problem is how most sites give info on the ki blast. Most sites only devote a paragraph to the subject (at best). The reality is most don't spend the time on the other training methods associated with the technique. The ki blast has its own specific power up, requires a lot of prior mental preperations, and has a specific method of Kiai, all along with the actual energetic manipulation of the blast. It is more complicated, but it is vastly more powerful then the other techniques. This is a combination of the original Mystery Shadow method and my own method (it is a bit more complicated then the original, but when mastered it is much stronger).
First you need to know how to do the powerup, shout, and energetic manipulations for the technique, but to get it to work you'll need to spend time doing the mental preperations.
The Technique: Mentally say to yourself your power mantra a few times, as you take a few deep breaths (inhale-abdomen out, exhale-abdomen in) with your tongue to the roof of your mouth. Feel the Ki inside you become electrically charged and feel ki outside your electrically charged as well, but try to stay calm - you can't blast when overly excited. Get into a fighting stance (boxing or martial art stance). For now cup and chamber your hands just like Goku and Ryu do for their blasts (this visualization really helps to bring up power and is the easiest way to do the blast), later you can try other methods like one handed blasting or finger blasts. Make a ki ball in your hands you can give the ball an electric charge or turn in into a flame ball if you'd like.....Go to Next Page
