Volume 1: On Tianheng Mountain Chapter 14: The Difficulty of Choice
As the life and death game between the Mo brothers came to an end, the rest of the game was surprisingly unspectacular.
When Lin Ruo met his third-generation disciple, he would admit defeat with one strike of his sword.
Hu Yue met a little fat man from Miyun Banner. The little fat man was not very flexible. He was bombarded with zhenqi bombs for two full minutes. His back was blown up and he fainted.
After the first round of competition, several people gathered in the backyard of the kitchen again, and the hearty laughter of Hu Yue and Lao Lu could be heard from a distance.
"Lao Lu, your skills are really good. Please teach me how to do it!"
Hu Yue thought about what Lao Lu did after the Mo brothers' competition. This girl was really carefree. She asked any questions directly and didn't shy away from anything.
"Hey, you can't teach it. You haven't even mastered the seven-star formation yet. If you have a chance, you can teach it in the future."
"Then you can't cheat. If you don't teach me in the future, I won't be able to forgive you!"
Listening to the little girl's blunt words, Lao Lu also drank a glass of wine happily. At this time, Yang Ming brought out today's dishes from the kitchen. Hu Yue and Lao Lu were chatting happily, while Lin Ruo was quiet next to him.
He was flipping through a book. When he saw Yang Ming serving food, he closed the book and looked over.
Yang Ming made full use of the specialties sent from Miyun Banner in today's dishes, including evergreen cabbage braised tube bones, date paste and taro balls, hot and sour potato shreds, and a large piece of white glutinous rice and red date cake.
"Today's dish is mainly soup."
"I see everyone is working so hard, so let's make some soup to replenish our health."
Yang Ming sat on the stone bench and stared at Lao Lu.
"Lao Lu, tell me the truth, what level of anger has you reached?"
"Is this important?"
"Of course it's important. I was thinking about it when I was cooking. Your ability to change places with your hands is not something ordinary people can do."
Lao Lu picked up a tube bone with chopsticks and took a sip of the soup and bone marrow. It was so delicious that he smacked his lips.
"Don't tell me! You finish speaking first and then eat!"
Hu Yue was also full of curiosity and couldn't wait to know how powerful this little uncle with eccentric behavior was.
"you guess?"
Lu Cheng smiled and did not answer the question directly. Lin Ruo, who was silently cutting the cake with a knife, said:
"Uncle Master, I'm afraid he is already a strong man in the realm of transformation into gods."
After Lin Ruo finished speaking, Yang Ming's hand holding the vegetables froze, Hu Yue opened her mouth wide, and Lu Cheng's tongue was burned by the bone marrow, so he hurriedly put the cool taro ball soup into his mouth.
"What? How can someone as frustrated as my uncle, Master, be a strong person in the realm of transformation into gods?"
Hu Yue's exclamation made Lao Lu lose his temper for a moment. What does frustration mean? Although he, Lu Cheng, is not a handsome young man, he has good facial features and is still energetic. Why did he become frustrated in this little girl's mouth?
"Can you speak?"
Lu Cheng flicked Hu Yue's head, causing Hu Yue to scratch for a long time in pain.
"Senior Sister, don't be kidding me. How can someone like Lao Lu be a powerful person in the God Transformation Realm?"
Yang Ming also expressed his disbelief. Can a strong person in the realm of gods be as shameless and shameless as Lao Lu? Shouldn't that be the feeling of floating in the world, becoming an immortal and ascending to immortality?
"You kid, you actually look down on your master!" Lao Lu picked up the bone that he had chewed clean and threw it at Yang Ming. As soon as Yang Ming dodged, the bone was thrown directly into the bushes nearby.
"Ahem, let me officially inform you that the person in front of you is the youngest powerful person in the God Transformation Realm in the Cloud Empire, the second level God Transformation Realm, Master Lu Cheng."
Second level of god transformation?
Yang Ming's little head was filled with big question marks.
"Senior sister, what is the second level of divine transformation?"
Hu Yue didn't know what the second level of transformation was. Lu Cheng looked at Yang Ming and Hu Yue, two illiterate people who didn't know how to learn and didn't like to read, and suddenly felt like they were playing the piano to others.
"There are four realms of cultivation: spiritual enlightenment, awakening, concentration, and spiritual transformation. Spiritual enlightenment and foundation building, awakening and cultivating the five elements, concentration on the third step to climb the ladder to heaven, and spiritual transformation on the eighth step to look at the dome."
After Lin Ruo finished speaking, Lao Lu poured out a cup and explained in detail the differences between these realms.
Qi Ling is the stage where people who are still in the Hongmeng state are comprehending the mystery of Qi just after it appears. At this stage, Qi is tangible but intangible. It can be sensed but cannot be fully utilized. Therefore, the Qi Ling stage is a period of accumulation of Qi.
amount, so that the stage can be better utilized.
The difference between people's true qi can be clearly seen in the spiritual enlightenment stage. Practitioners should focus on one skill during the spiritual enlightenment stage, and use it to determine the appropriate way of running their true qi to warm and nourish them.
Infuriating energy to accumulate in quantity.
In terms of the accumulation of this amount, external objects can be used to help, that is, spiritual treasures that match the shape of one's own true energy can speed up the accumulation of true energy.
For example, Hu Yue's zhenqi fits perfectly with Tianganlu's Qigong rules, which makes her practice more effective with half the effort, so her zhenqi accumulates very quickly.
Lin Ruo's zhenqi did not perfectly match Tianqianlu's guidance, but she could still practice zhenqi according to Tianqianlu's guidance, but it would take a little longer to complete the accumulation.
And Yang Ming's true energy is pure pure Yang true energy. It is difficult to find spiritual treasures from the outside world that can help this kind of true energy. Moreover, due to the particularity of pure Yang true energy, it requires specific
Kung Fu to assist cultivation. Therefore, there is no spiritual treasure and no special Kung Fu, so the accumulation is very slow.
When the Qi in the enlightenment stage reaches a certain amount, a qualitative change will occur. The Qi no longer stays in the formless stage, but becomes the stage of transformation and solidification, which is the so-called awakening stage.
.
Generally speaking, since the stage of Qi spiritual awakening is very short, the shortest is only a few months, and the longest is two or three years, so after the Qi spiritual awakening, people need to determine their own life through the form of Qi.
The direction of practice.
There are four directions of practice: body training, god cultivation, weapon control, and soul training. Some people specialize in one, in order to pursue the ultimate, and some practice in various ways, seeking the unpredictable. However, no matter how they practice, there is a chance that they can pass the awakening stage.
Use Qi to find your own Five Elements attributes.
The division of qi, yin, yang, and five elements is to achieve true classification and expertise in the awakening stage.
If you ask a person whose Qi and the Five Elements belong to fire to practice feminine water spells, it will be surprising if he can practice well. So at this stage, it is a matter of determining the direction of the Five Elements in his Qi cultivation.
Hu Yue's five elements, metal is partial to fire, so she will be more proficient in practicing metal and fire spells. Moreover, her five-element attributes, which are mainly metal and partial to fire, can give her five-element spells unique power.
Gold and fire are mutually restrained. True gold is refined by fire, and true gold is not afraid of fire. The explosive and destructive power of the true energy of gold and fire is very powerful. Therefore, little girl Hu Yue's true energy bomb has a strong
explosive force.
Lin Ruo's true energy is quite aura of clouds and clouds. It belongs to wood but is biased toward water. Water produces wood and wood retains water. This mutual dominance determines that Lin Ruo's true energy is restrained and tolerant.
This is why Lao Lu asked Lin Ruo to only focus on collecting the light, rather than sharpness, when he understood the sword's intention.
Your sword power is already as sharp as a drop of water cutting through a stone. If the sword power is still like this, where should you put the wood element in your true energy? This is called against common sense.
After talking about Lin Ruo and Hu Yue, we have to talk about Yang Ming.
"Tell me? Okay, okay."
As soon as Yang Ming heard that he was here, he hurriedly finished chewing the tube bone and listened carefully with his ears raised.
Yang Ming's true energy is pure yang true energy, and his five-element constitution is Zhengjin Zhenghuo. What does that mean? It means that other people's five elements are in the same direction and have two phases. When they are in harmony, they are introverted, and when they are in conflict, they are extroverted. Yang Ming's
totally different.
Positive metal and normal fire do not create each other, nor do they contradict each other. The positive metal position excludes the other four elements, and the positive fire position also excludes the other four elements. But if they are mutually exclusive individually, this is no longer mutual conflict, it is completely repulsive.
Just like Lao Wang and Lao Wang's daughter-in-law fight every day, but they can still get on with their lives, and it doesn't prevent them from getting better and better. This is called mutual restraint.
The five elements of rejection are equivalent to Lao Wang getting married today and divorcing his wife as soon as he saw her. How can he live like this?
Therefore, with a constitution that is pure gold and pure fire, during the spiritual enlightenment stage, he gave up all thoughts on practicing the Five Elements Techniques and concentrated on awakening the true energy.
"Then I, who is Zhengjin Zhenghuo, can't practice magic anymore? How much loss will I have to suffer?"
Yang Ming scratched his head, and Lao Lu calmly took a bite of the cut cake. The jujube fragrant rice was sweet and tasted excellent.
Is it possible that a person with a Zhengjin Zhenghuo constitution cannot practice the Five Elements Technique? That is not necessarily the case. Although Lao Wang divorced his wife as soon as he met her when he got married, he turned around and thought that something was wrong.
, how can you just say break up?
However, his wife was unwilling again. She just let me go, and now she keeps me here. How could it be such a cheap thing to separate the family?
Therefore, Lao Wang and his wife lived in the same house, and they were safe and sound. They were still in the same home, but they did not meet each other and did not affect each other.
"So what do you mean? Let me live apart?"
Yang Ming's question left the three of them speechless, and Lao Lu slapped Yang Ming on the forehead.
"Excuse me, I mean you have to practice two pure Five Elements techniques at the same time, and the level of the two techniques must be balanced, otherwise, you will..."
Lao Lu picked up a stick bone and squeezed it hard. The stick bone broke into two halves.
"Will he explode and die?"
"That's not the case. It's just that there won't be any progress. It's almost like not practicing."
"Then what do you mean by this action?"
"I eat bone marrow!"
Lao Lu hurriedly picked out a piece of bone marrow from the broken bone of the rod with chopsticks. This action made Yang Ming want to use his shoe to stamp his face.
To put it bluntly, most of the Five Elements physiques are mutually reinforcing and incompatible, and there are very few who even have the Five Elements upright. It is even harder to find someone like Yang Ming, who has a dual upright Five Elements physique.
If you think about it this way, this Yang Ming is really not an ordinary person.
After awakening the true energy, as you gradually gain a deeper understanding of the true energy, and after completing the perfect mastery of the true energy, you will have some kind of spiritual enlightenment. This kind of spiritual enlightenment and breakthrough is the sign of entering the state of concentration.
Some people enter the realm of concentration very quickly, but some people find it difficult to gain that kind of enlightenment throughout their lives. To put it bluntly, on the road of cultivation, the realm of concentration is a watershed and a boundary marker that separates ordinary people from cultivators.
At the third level of concentration, the emphasis is on the understanding of mind and spirit. The five elements techniques at this stage are already at your fingertips, but what is more important is the understanding of one's own true energy and the understanding of "Tao".
The first level of concentration is to inquire about the Three Purities, the second level of concentration is to realize the Three Elements, and the third level of concentration is to seek the way of heaven.
In the state of concentration
At the first level, the practitioner will subtly cultivate one of the three purity of essence, qi, and spirit. At this time, he will truly enter the stage of specializing in the art. Cultivating essence is to realize the purity, have no distractions, and understand the art.
The essence of Dharma or weapon control is the path followed by those who control weapons and those who cultivate the spirit.
Cultivation of qi means to abandon distracting thoughts, keep the precepts in mind, and train the body. The three kinds of meat and five disgusting things will cause the person's spiritual energy to leak out. To ask for the essence of body training, one needs to understand what is capable and what is impossible?
Cultivation of the spirit is the Tripitaka of the Gods, tempering the soul, which is transcending the material and entering the ethereal realm. People who forge the soul are rare in ancient times, but every person who forges the soul must have great achievements, either leaving a name in history, or being infamy for thousands of years.
After completing the latent cultivation of the Three Purities Dharma and understanding one's own Tao, one enters the second stage of realizing the Three Patterns.
Those who understand the Heavenly Pattern are those who stand above all things, have the demeanor of a king, can control the world, take Heaven as the way, and make unremitting progress.
Those who understand the earth's pattern are generous and tolerant of all things, study with concentration, and do not care about the future. They can care about the world, can be contented, and are infinitely selfless.
Those who have realized their personality regard themselves as the way, and regard themselves as the universe and all things. They do not fight or rob, and are content with the way. They do not care about the rise and fall of kingdoms, or success or failure. They pursue their true self and are content with themselves.
"Uncle, you must have realized your personality."
Hu Yue listened very carefully, but she could see Lu Cheng's practice.
"That's not right, Lao Lu, if you say so, then people in the Concentration Realm are all good people, and there will be no bad people. Look at the group of old people in Luxian Palace, they are not as noble as you said."
"I haven't finished speaking yet. Why are you so anxious?"
Lu Chengyou slapped Yang Ming, and Yang Ming thought to himself that he had offended someone and would be beaten even if he asked questions.
According to the theory of three grids, there is positive and negative, just like there are yin and yang in all things.
The inverse of the three grids is chaos, and the extreme inverse, which is the opposite of the positive, is the traitorous ministers and traitors, causing harm to the vicissitudes of life.
If the king realizes the Three Elements, if it is extremely upright, the world will be peaceful and prosperous; if it is extremely unfaithful, the people will be in dire straits.
When a minister understands the Three Patterns, if he is extremely righteous, it means the country is peaceful and the people are safe; if he is extremely rebellious, it is a sign of disobedience.
When ordinary people realize the Three Elements, if they are extremely righteous, they are actively pursuing their pursuits; if they are extremely contrary, they are doing many evil things.
The Three Grids are similar to the Five Elements, both have biases, and extremely positive and extremely negative states are rarely seen.
Those who concentrate their minds will begin to comprehend the "Tao" after the three purity and three elements are gathered together. Tao generates yin and yang, yin and yang transform into two rituals, two rituals divide into four images, and four images generate Bagua.
The Four Symbols and Eight Trigrams are all in the Five Elements, and they can all be reflected in the Five Elements.
Among the four images, the East Blue Dragon Division is creating and reviving, the West White Tiger Division is killing and destroying, the South Suzaku Division is chaotic and chaotic, and the North Xuanwu Division is depressed and silent.
The four images are used to connect the five elements. The five elements are in the state of creation when they are in harmony with each other, the state of silence when they are in opposition to each other, the state of chaos when they are in harmony with each other, and the state of destruction when they are in opposition. They correspond to the four images respectively.
The Bagua is easier to understand, it is eight different elements, Qian Kun Li, Zhen Xun Gen Dui, corresponding to light, darkness, water and fire, wind, thunder, mountains and rivers.
The Three Purities, Three Grids and Four Images derive from the Thirty-six Heavenly Ways, and the Three Purities, Three Grids and Bagua derive from the Seventy-two Heavenly Daos. These 808 Heavenly Daos are the steps leading to the transformation of gods from concentration to heaven.
"It's too complicated. We have just reached the realm of divine transformation. What is the eighth level of divine transformation?"
"The eighth level of transformation into a god is easy to say and difficult to say."
Lao Lu was already full, so he took out a white handkerchief and wiped his mouth, shaking the remaining wine.
For the eighth level of transformation, there are only even numbers, but no odd numbers. That is to say, there are only second, fourth, sixth, and eighth levels, but there are no ones like 1, 3, 5, or 7.
Unlike the Concentrated Spirit Realm, which requires a lot of understanding, the Divine Transformation Realm only requires the understanding of three major laws.
Elements, space and time, cause and effect.
"After you understand all the three laws, you can do whatever you want on the dome. Currently, the only eight-level masters I know of are Zongheng and Heng."
"It sounds easy to say it. But at this stage, I realized that half a step is the difference between the sky and the sea."
Lao Lu's explanation was very vivid and vivid. After such a long time, he finally had what a master should look like.
"Okay, okay, that's it for today's night."
After Lao Lu had eaten and drank enough, he left the backyard carelessly with his hands behind his back. Lin Ruo and Hu Yue helped Yang Ming put it away for a while before going back to prepare for a rest. Yang Ming had been sitting under the big willow tree and thinking about something.
Nothing more than my own life experience and what Lao Lu said.
Zhengjin Zhenghuo, his physique is so special, it can't be as simple as accidental, and he also has this pure Yang Qi, what is his life experience like?
His parents, his elders, his memory.
All his memories stopped at the age of eight, when he met Master Shangqing on a rainy road.
Even what happened that morning, he couldn't remember clearly.
Yang Ming's head was about to explode thinking about it. He now had too many questions to ask. Lao Lu said that if he won the world competition, he could meet the concubine and find out his life experience.
"Two more years."
Yang Ming murmured, the cold wind blew through the bare branches of the big willow tree, bringing the unique cold water vapor of Tianheng Mountain in November. The water vapor hit his face, as cold as needles. Yang Ming wiped his face,
Chapter completed!
