Literal meaninglight skill

Qinggong[1] (Ching-kung) is a technique in Chinese martial arts.

Its use has been exaggerated in wuxia fiction, where martial artists have the ability to move swiftly and lightly at superhuman speed, perform gravity-defying moves such as gliding on water surfaces, scaling high walls, and mounting trees.[citation needed]

In some wuxia and martial arts films containing elements of wire fu, qinggong stunts are simulated by the actor or stuntman suspending himself from wires.[citation needed]

In traditional Baguazhang training, qinggong is involved. The practitioner runs up a plank supported against a wall. The gradient of the plank is increased gradually over time as his training progresses.[2]
