Chapter 38 Withered
After the sound, Li Ruan, who was sitting opposite Xu Changsheng, also stiffened. The originally rippling spiritual sea turned into a pool of stagnant water. No matter how he moved it, there was no response at all. Then he felt it and found that his body was still there, which made him feel relieved.
.
Xu Changsheng also noticed something unusual about Li Ruan. Li Ruan shook his head slightly to indicate that it was okay, and then said: "Xiao Changsheng, what I am going to say next is matters related to cultivation. You must remember it well."
Xu Changsheng nodded seriously.
After thinking for a while, Li Ruan said: "There are two types of cultivation. One is the common cultivation, which is to perceive the heaven and earth and observe the principles of the great road. The cultivation is mainly divided into three schools: Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism. There are also some others, but they are all small sects.
, such as ghost cultivation, magic, witchcraft, etc.”
"The other is physical cultivation. Physical cultivation was the largest sect in ancient times. However, with the rise of Taoism later, because 90% of the physical cultivation at the same level were no match for Taoism, physical cultivation gradually declined. Physical cultivation and Taoism
Without interfering with each other, you can practice both Taoism and physical fitness, but most people will not take this path. Because Taoism cultivates the soul, and body cultivation cultivates the body. The stronger the body, the greater the ability to bind the soul.
"
"Nowadays, most physical practitioners are military strategists who gather among hundreds of schools of thought. Military strategists are also the largest family after Confucianism. The only top force of military strategists is Tiance Mansion in Yunxin Continent. In Tiance Mansion
Ninety percent of it is dedicated to physical training, and it is also known as a holy land for physical training."
"In this case, why do so many people choose to practice body training?" Xu Changsheng was a little confused.
Li Ruan smiled and explained: "Because most of the physical practitioners are people who have no talent for cultivation but do not want to be ordinary, so they choose the path of physical training."
Then he said seriously: "Physical cultivation is not only inferior to Tao cultivation in terms of strength, but the process of refining the body is extremely difficult. If Tao cultivation can still rely on talent and luck, but physical cultivation can only be done through hard work and constant torture of the body.
Let the body continue to become stronger, so everyone who has achieved success in body refining is a martial arts madman."
"So physical training is mostly practiced in the battlefield. Tens of thousands of armies are fighting on the battlefield, which is very suitable for people who practice physical training. So the strongest physical training is in Tiance Mansion, but the force with the most physical training belongs to us in the south.
The Nanming Dynasty of the Ming Continent.”
"Then there is no advantage in physical training?" Xu Changsheng couldn't help but wonder after hearing what Li Ruan said.
Li Ruan thought for a while, "If there is a must, it is that the physical cultivator has thick skin and big fists. Once the Tao cultivator is approached by the physical cultivator, he will most likely be beaten violently. But if there is a real duel between the physical cultivator and the Tao cultivator
, 90% of the physical practitioners died on the way to attack the Taoist cultivators, and the remaining 10% would be difficult to kill the Taoist cultivators even if they were close, because each Taoist cultivator knew some defensive spells and wore a talisman.
A. So out of the 10% who got close, 90% died on the way to attack.”
After listening, Xu Changsheng finally understood that physical cultivation had no chance of winning against Tao cultivation.
But there is an idea in my heart, what if the speed of this physical training is fast enough and the fist is big enough? Will the outcome be reversed?
Li Ruan didn't know what Xu Changsheng was thinking, so he continued: "But some people can train their bodies while practicing Taoism, and can grasp the balance between the two very well. This type of people are often better than those of the same realm.
Both Xiu and Taoist cultivators are powerful, but they are also extremely dangerous, because once they fail to grasp this balance when breaking through, whether the body is stronger than the soul or the soul is stronger than the body, most of them will die directly, and even if it fails, the muscles and veins will be severed.
, reduced to useless people, so this type of people are also called: gamblers. A group of gamblers who trade their lives for strength!"
Li Ruan smiled and rubbed Xu Changsheng's head with his hand, and said: "Uncle Li
My uncle is such a gambler, and he is also a leader among gamblers."
Xu Changsheng was stunned.
However, Li Ruan became serious and continued: "Actually, what I told you before was just normal. What is really strong is what I am going to tell you next."
Xu Changsheng also became serious and waited patiently for Li Ruan's next words.
"The truly strongest person in the world of cultivation is the sword cultivator, who is completely unreasonable and strong. No matter whether you can master all kinds of methods in cultivation, or you can be invulnerable in physical cultivation, sword cultivators should break them with one sword. Moreover, the sword
Once a cultivator condenses his own flying sword, he can kill enemies thousands of miles away without making a sound. Therefore, among the millions of monks in the world, sword cultivators are undoubtedly the most lethal. Whether in ancient times or today, sword cultivators are the most powerful.
The undisputed number one, just like the old man with a sword we saw before."
After hearing this, Xu Changsheng's heart was filled with huge waves. He even clenched his fists unconsciously. It turns out that this is the so-called sword cultivation! But then he thought of something, "Sister, what do I think of the monks who came in this time?"
There seem to be very few people wearing swords inside?"
Li Ruan rolled his eyes at him, "Do you think you are a good swordsman? People who are talented in practicing swordsmanship are rare. And..."
Li Ruan's voice also became depressed, and he slowly said: "And the sword cultivator has the biggest flaw, and that is the collapse of the sword path."
"Collapse? Why did the sword path collapse?" Xu Changsheng was even more confused.
Li Ruan stared at Xu Changsheng and said: "It is said that in ancient times, the entire world was owned by sword cultivators. Any place that a flying sword could reach belonged to sword cultivators. Moreover, sword cultivators were surprisingly united, and they were often
The other monks were killed so much that they didn't dare to go down the mountain, but no matter how defiant the sword cultivators were, they would eventually arouse everyone's anger."
Speaking of this, Li Ruan couldn't help but sigh, "The monks from the three thousand avenues except the swordsmanship gathered together to attack the swordsmanship. Since then, the swordsmanship collapsed, and the sword cultivators of the 13th, 34th and 2nd realms have been defeated. Also.
Since then, sword cultivators have no longer reached the peak or second level of sword cultivation. No matter how amazing a sword cultivator’s strength is, he can only cultivate to the eighth level and return to his true form. After returning to his true form, he will not be able to make any progress."
"So now any monk with any ambition will not choose the way of swordsmanship. The way of swordsmanship has also changed from the strongest path among the three thousand avenues to a dead end road. But even if it is a dead end road, it is still undisputed before returning to the truth.
first."
For some reason, Xu Changsheng felt a little disappointed, as it turned out that the sword cultivator still had such a past.
But then I thought about it, these are too far away from me, my soul is still hurt, let alone cultivation, whether I can die in peace is a question.
"Sister, is there a Kung Fu that can not only refine the body but also protect the soul?" Xu Changsheng remembered what Chief Ran said and couldn't help but ask.
It would be better if Li Ruan also had this skill, and he wouldn't have to exchange for that spear. As for the favor he owed Li Ruan, Xu Changsheng no longer thought about it. Along the way, he still owed Li Ruan a lot.
?
Moreover, since he has recognized her as his sister, he should just treat her as a real sister.
Li Ruan was shocked, "Where did you hear about this physical technique?"
Xu Changsheng had no intention of telling Li Ruan that matter now, so he used the excuse that Tang and Song Dynasties had told him. Li Ruan did not doubt him, and then explained: "There is such a physical skill called "Withering", which is
It was created by a body-refining saint who had already passed away. But not long after it was circulated, all the printed copies were recalled by that saint. Since then, there has been no similar physical technique in the world."
In this way, Li Ruan definitely doesn't have this physical technique in his hands. If he did, he would have taken it out long ago, so he wouldn't have kept silent about it.
Then the two of them chatted about other things.
Xu Changsheng finally knew how the monks were classified into different levels.
Cultivators are divided into the lower three realms, the middle three realms, the upper three realms and the only fairyland.
The lower three realms include the first five levels of Qi training, and then the realm of transformation from the mortal world to the realm of entering the profound realm.
The three middle realms are divided into Danxin realm, Lingtai realm and Dividing spirit realm.
The upper three realms are the realm of divine control, the realm of returning to true nature and the realm of overcoming tribulation.
Finally, there is the only fairyland - the Ascension Realm.
Body refining is divided into ten levels, which correspond one-to-one with the ten levels of a cultivator. It's just that the names are slightly different. For example, the first level of body refining is the copper skin realm, the second level is the golden tendon realm, and the third level is the blood exchange realm.
Only then did Xu Changsheng learn that the ability of cultivators to suddenly conjure things was due to something called Xumi mustard, which contained space, ranging in size from big to small. It was said that the big one could hold an entire town, and the small one could hold it. But cubic.
Moreover, Xumi mustard seeds come in different forms, including jade pendants, rings, pens, copper coins, etc. There are even some people who can directly refine their own natal magic weapon into Xumi mustard seeds.
In addition, the coins used by cultivators are also different. The coins they use are collectively called Xianjia coins. There are three types of Xianjia coins. The smallest is called white water money, followed by green clam money, and the red leaf coin with the highest face value. A green clam. Money can be exchanged for hundreds of white water coins, and one red leaf coin can be exchanged for hundreds of green clam coins.
As for the exchange between immortal coins and mortal coins, one white water coin can be exchanged for a hundred taels of gold, but it still has a price but no market.
After saying that, the two went up to the roof. Two figures, one big and one small, lay side by side on the roof tiles, watching the sunset. From a distance, it seemed that there were two more towering peaks.
Xu Changsheng suddenly asked: "Sister, do you have someone you like?"
The plump woman grabbed Xu Changsheng's little head and said with a smile: "Why, are you still concerned about my sister's lifelong events?"
Xu Changsheng blushed with embarrassment and didn't know how to answer the question.
Then the woman looked at the green mountains in the distance and said softly: "Guess."
The gentle evening breeze blows through the willows on the shore, and the hardest thing to guess is the girl's heart.
…
In the Sun Mansion on Fulu Street, there is also a woman in white leaning on the railing and looking at the setting sun in the distance, her mind is calm and there is no disturbance at all.
At the pavilion not far behind her, Jiang Qiyun, who had changed into a long red dress, was sitting on a swing, swaying slightly as if she was twenty-eight years old. I am afraid no one would think that this was the blood cloud that could stop a child from crying at night in Cangluo Continent.
Bai Yi also came down from the pavilion, walked to the woman in red skirt and asked: "Aunt Yun, have you ever liked someone?"
Jiang Qiyun looked up at the sky, exposed her snow-white neck, and said in a long voice: "To ask this question, you might as well ask the saint when the demon tribe will attack Liangjie Mountain."
Suddenly something occurred to him, and he quickly held the swing rope with a look of shock on his face, "Ling'er, do you have someone you like?"
Jiang Ling shook his head.
Then he nodded again.
Is it so common to like someone? It seems that sometimes it is really common, like a dark evening and a moderate snowfall.
Life is often unpredictable. For example, Yan Beichen would chase Yu Yanliu all over the street because he took one more look at Miao He's long legs.
Miao He, who was behind him, didn't even look at the two of them. He carried a giant sword and went to a private house where he was staying.
…
When Xu Changsheng returned to Weichen Lane, he was a little surprised to find that Mrs. He's house still didn't open the door, but he still went back to the house.
