Chapter 18 Candlelight

"The teachers and assistants who come out from the academy to find qualified children all practice the art of telepathy. With this Zhiyuyin cultivation disk, they can roughly sense the direction of those with spiritual vein talents.

Of course, this method is rough, but the more accurate method is to use this gray candle."

Cheng Juxiu placed the gray candle in the center of the compass and said casually: "There are five kinds of cultivation methods mainly taught in the academy, namely Fu, Shu, Nian, Sword, and Body.

The so-called "talisman and magic are twins, sword and thought are one."

The talisman is an alchemy talisman, which gathers the aura of heaven and earth and condenses it into an iron painted silver hook. Once the talisman is completed, ghosts and gods will be shocked.

The magic is a thousand kinds of magic, which can patrol the clouds and drive away the rain, split the sea and collapse the mountains.

Nian is the thought, and one can control spiritual energy at will with the thought.

The sword is the way of swordsmanship. The hall is filled with flowers and three thousand guests are drunk, and the frost freezes fourteen states with one sword."

"Any of these four methods of cultivation can lead to the great road, and it requires a lifetime of study and hard training. Only the greedy and stupid, or the real geniuses, will practice both.

For example, the current head of the academy, who is also the most powerful practitioner in the Yu Kingdom, has practiced both talismans and swordsmanship."

Pu Liuxuan added: "Of course, the realm of the mountain leader is beyond the understanding of ordinary people and even many practitioners. Generally speaking, even geniuses have to choose two relatively close paths if they want to practice at the same time.

For example, talismans and techniques, talismans and thoughts, and thoughts and swords."

Li Ang subconsciously asked: "What about the body?"

"body..."

Pu Liuxuan and Cheng Juxiu looked at each other and suddenly burst into laughter, "Hahahahaha!"

The two laughed for a while, and the laughter became more comfortable. Pu Liuxuan coughed slightly and stopped, "Ti... you will find out when you go to the academy.

Although there is no distinction between high and low in the way of spiritual practice.

However, the method of body training is so different from that of Talisman Sword Reading that it is difficult to compare and measure them.

This is not to say that body training is not as good as Talisman Sword Reading.

What is lost in the east is gained in the mulberry tree.

Real masters of martial arts, such as the three generals of the Yu State, the commander of the Zhenfu Division, and the enshrinements in the palace, can also overcome all changes with one punch."

"What is lost in the east is gained in the mulberry tree..."

Li Ang immediately reacted, "In other words, only those who are not talented in Talisman and Sword Reading should practice the way of body training."

"I didn't say that. You just thought of it yourself. Don't mention it to anyone when you get to Chang'an."

Pu Liuxuan waved his hand slightly awkwardly, "In short, as long as you have the talent for spiritual veins, everything will be easy.

Juxiu."

"Um."

Cheng Juxiu responded, stretched out his hand and rubbed the candle wick. The candle burned slowly, and an orange-red flame rose like a bean sprout.

Pu Liuxuan raised his chin and said, "Reach out your hand and hold the middle end of the candle with your thumb and index finger, and put the other three fingers together. The index finger is in front and the thumb is behind."

"oh."

Li Ang took a breath and reached out to hold the candle. He felt cold to the touch, as if he were touching a piece of solid ice.

"Zhiyu Yinxiu Pan is a test method that monks have used for thousands of years. Based on the color, shape, size, change of the candle flame, and the compass direction where the flame points, through tedious and complicated calculation methods, the number of spiritual veins can be inferred.

diameter, and the suitable spiritual path.”

Pu Liuxuan licked his beard and said calmly: "Even if you have ten spiritual veins, you are relatively talented. Fourteen spiritual veins can only be found in one person among tens of millions of people. And sixteen or seventeen spiritual veins may not be able to do it in the world for decades."

Come out with one.

Since historical records, the person with the most natural spiritual veins was the headmaster of the Haotian Dao Sect in the late Sui Dynasty two hundred years ago, who had twenty.

As for the more ancient mythological period, it cannot be considered true without physical evidence and historical references.

In addition, the number of spiritual veins is not the decisive factor in practice.

What's more important is understanding and opportunity.

Spiritual veins are equivalent to rivers. Twenty rivers can transport water, and ten rivers can also transport water. However, at the beginning of practice, those with more spiritual veins can avoid detours.

Don't think too much, concentrate and be calm."

"oh."

Li Ang slowly exhaled a breath, expelling nervous and distracting thoughts from his mind.

Under the gaze of the three people, the orange flame at the top of the gray candle slowly expanded at an extremely slow speed.

“Those with few spiritual veins will have a weak candle flame; those with many spiritual veins will have a strong candle flame.

Those with deep spiritual veins will have thin candle flames, and those with shallow spiritual veins will have thick candle flames.

If there is a spiritual vein in the brain, the candle flame will be golden.

If the spiritual vein is in the hand, the candle flame will be blue.

In addition, candlelight will also show crosses, triangles, pentagrams and other phenomena based on the direction, shape, and circuit of the spiritual veins.

For example, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty used Zhiyu Yinxiupan for the first time when he was ten years old, and the candlelight showed a complicated and gorgeous image of a candle dragon, so much so that the emperor was so pleased that he was crowned prince..."

Cheng Juxiu's explanation voice became weaker and weaker, and the expression on his face became more and more exciting.

I saw the candle in Li Ang's hand slowly split, split into two, then into four, until it was divided into twenty-four extremely slender leaves, spread out above the Zhiyu Yin repair plate.

what is this?

Lotus? Orchid? Peony?

It can't be a big octopus, right?

Li Ang didn't know why and didn't dare to move his hand away.

Fortunately, the gray candle was very flame-resistant, no candle oil melted, and it still felt as cold as ever.

Cheng Juxiu frowned and said, "It looks like a twenty-four-petal lotus, but the leaves are too thin."

Pu Liuxuan also frowned and added: "There is also something wrong with the shape. The upright twenty-four-petal lotus should point to the '姤', 'ding', 'Xun', 'Gu', and litigation of Zhiyu Yin Xiupan respectively."

Just wait for the word...

Try using the Tiangang method to calculate?"

"Hmm. One is Jiuchang, who lives in it to escape from. The two is Yuchang, who turns into vegetation and all things. The three Maochang, turns into all things in the mountains..."

Cheng Juxiu closed his eyes, the five fingers of his left hand bounced and collided rapidly, and he muttered words, as if he was talking about some complicated and obscure calculation rules.

Time passed bit by bit, and after a long time, he opened his eyes and said slowly: "Shitiao."

Li Ang raised his eyebrows slightly, "Huh?"

"You can let go of the gray candle. Calculated, it should be seven."

Cheng Juxiu nodded and said seriously: "Although one of them appears to be weak, it is true that all seven are true. It may be caused by excessive sadness recently and a troubled mind."

"Qijo?"

Pu Liuxuan's frown slowly relaxed, and he nodded: "That's enough."

"Well, I have passed the academy's admission standards."

Cheng Juxiu smiled, extinguished the gray candle with a wave of his hand, and said: "Junior brother, don't be discouraged, the teacher and I only have about ten spiritual veins.

As long as you have passed the state of feeling Qi and hiding in the body,

The cultivation of the seven spiritual meridians is not much slower than others.

Now it’s different from the ancient practice before.”

"Ah, I'm fine. It's just that I thought the twenty-four-petal lotus was the twenty-four spiritual veins, and I was shocked. Emotions are not divided according to their shapes."

Li Ang said with some embarrassment: "By the way, senior brother, what is the hiding place of Gan Qi?"
