Chapter 5 The difficulty of cultivating the Tao is now known.
When Jiang Yao saw Deng Jiu's familiar technique and recalled all the mysteries of his master Jiang Lao, he couldn't help but feel a chill running down his spine.
Master Jiang Lao's identity has always been a cloud. Master is an invisible rich man, extremely low-key, but never enjoys money.
They are two junior brothers who are said to be the master's direct disciples. They have been with the master for many years, but they have never been able to see through the master.
Could it be that Master passed from this world?
Like yourself, a time traveler?
Jiang Yao couldn't help but think of the last time his master summoned him and Li Luo. He didn't think there was anything strange about what the old man said at the time, but now that he thinks about it, he seems to have a profound meaning.
The master said: "Jiang Yao is going to the Kunlun Mountains in the west, and Li Luo is going to the Jianghua Island in the east. You can wander around in the mountains and try your luck. Don't come back without my instructions. Just stay out of the limelight."
He also said: "If you go east and west, maybe you will reach the same destination by different roads."
Jiang Yao's understanding at that time was that the so-called "one east and the other west" meant going to jail.
Now that I think about it, it seems to mean something else.
The more Jiang Yao thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, and a shadow of uneasiness rose in his heart.
Haha, I really think too much.
"Yaoer, what are you thinking about?" Deng Jiu frowned when he saw that Jiang Yao was a little distracted.
Jiang Yao suddenly came back to his senses, "My son saw that Dad's gestures were so beautiful, he couldn't help but get distracted."
Really good-looking?
When the four martial arts masters heard this, they couldn't help but sneered in their hearts.
Humph, Fannu is Fannu.
While sneering, the four of them were a little worried. Isn't this kid completely ignorant? If so, cultivation would be in trouble.
For cultivation, physical qualifications alone are not enough, you also need to have enlightenment.
Deng Jiu patiently said warmly: "Yao'er, look carefully at this trick." Yan Zhi slowly pressed his hands and once again demonstrated the seemingly simple but actually mysterious set of tricks.
Jiang's mother asked with concern: "Yao'er, do you understand? That's it." After that, she also demonstrated it once.
Deng Jiu encouraged: "Don't be anxious, take your time. Think back to the movements just now and learn them yourself." Although he said this, his heart was also in doubt.
Master is most afraid of disciples who have qualifications and lack of understanding.
Jiang Cai and Mei Mei were also a little anxious. They were very concerned about Jiang Yao, and were afraid that Jiang Yao had poor understanding and would not be able to appreciate the subtle meaning of "Yun Shui Jue".
Jiang Yao thought about it for a moment, and also raised his hands to the sky, gradually facing each other, and then pressed and pulled several times in succession. He didn't know how well he learned, and looked up at Deng Jiu with some anxiety, "Dad..."
What?!
Deng Jiu and the other four looked at each other, speechless.
The moves this kid learned are simply...
He actually learned nine gestures correctly the first time!
Nine gestures are correct, this understanding... is a bit scary.
The four of them were a little stunned. They didn't expect that this kid had such a good understanding!
Even Meimei felt a little complicated at this time.
Jiang Yao, it’s really a pity. I underestimated him.
Yunshui Jue is the most basic and commonly used method in cultivation. It is simple to say, but it has forty-nine gestures. These forty-nine gestures are very similar, and most people cannot tell the difference.
The average person just follows the gourd and draws the scoop, and can learn two or three gestures correctly at the first time. And it becomes more difficult as you go to the later stages. It will take an average person several months to do all the 49 gestures correctly.
The Yunshui Jue is a technique that guides Qi into the body from the outside to the inside. If you cannot learn this set of gestures, your practice will be in vain. No matter how strong the energy around you is, you will not be able to use it.
But Jiang Yao learned nine moves correctly on his first try. If it wasn't a coincidence, it was because of his extraordinary understanding.
Deng Jiu's eyes were a little bright, "Okay! You learned well! You learned nine of the forty-nine movements correctly! Yao'er, look at it again!"
Deng Jiu demonstrated again, "Come again!"
"Yes!" Jiang Yao knew that her performance was very good, and she became more confident. She learned even better this time and actually got twelve gestures correct.
"Hahaha!" Deng Jiu laughed happily and patted Jiang Yao's shoulder fiercely, "Yaoer actually has such a good understanding. He is indeed my son, Deng Jiu!"
Can he be unhappy?
With Jiang Yao's extraordinary understanding, it is almost certain that he will become a martial arts cultivator within one year. Then, the plan will be completed smoothly.
Jiang's mother was also very happy, "Yao'er, mother is so happy that you have such a good understanding."
Jiang Cai's beautiful eyes were shining, "Xiao Yao, with your understanding, you can learn the Yunshui Art in less than a month. But don't underestimate the Yunshui Art. Even if you don't practice, you can use the Yunshui Art regularly.
It can strengthen the body.”
Mei Mei looked at Jiang Yao with both gratification and joy, "Yes, Yao Lang. The Yun Shui Jue looks simple, but it's not that easy. The forty-nine movements are similar, and those with poor understanding may not learn it in half a year."
I didn’t expect Yaolang’s understanding to be so good.”
What? Is my understanding so good? Jiang Yao himself was a little surprised.
He didn't know whether his understanding was good or not. But he knew very well that the reason why he was able to learn so many moves correctly the first time was probably because he had seen his master use them several times.
At this time, Jiang Yao saw that Mei Mei's joy came from the bottom of his heart, without any pretense, and his opinion of her couldn't help but wavered. Could it be that he had misunderstood her?
"Dad, what is the use of this Yunshui Jue?" Jiang Yao asked.
"That's a good question." Deng Jiu smiled happily and heartily, "To practice martial arts, you need yin and yang. Vitality is yin, and spiritual energy is yang. When yin and yang are in harmony, true energy can be achieved."
"Vital energy is the essence of heaven, earth and the universe. Only by using the cultivation method of breathing and exhaling can we absorb the vitality between heaven and earth, nourish the meridians of Zifu, and give birth to the sea of qi and spiritual platform."
"And spiritual energy is the essence of the spiritual jade elixir. The function of spiritual energy is to improve your cultivation and increase your true energy. If you only have spiritual energy, your cultivation will be slow. If you only have spiritual energy, your Tao foundation will be unstable."
"As for the method of absorbing vitality, the Yunshui Jue is the foundation. Only by learning the Yunshui Jue can you practice the martial arts mind method, and only then can you absorb the vitality into the body and sense the location of the mysterious veins and spiritual points."
"Only when you feel the mysterious veins and spiritual acupoints can you absorb the spiritual energy in the spiritual jade, open up the nine profound veins, and open the nine spiritual acupoints. Only then can you transcend the world and enter the Tao, and achieve martial arts."
Mother Jiang nodded and said, "Your father is right. The Yun Shui Jue is the first step, and then you can proceed step by step. Without mastering the forty-nine gestures of the Yun Shui Jue, everything that follows will be out of the question."
Jiang Yao said confidently: "Father, mother, don't worry. I will master this Yun Shui Jue as soon as possible."
Jiang Caidao: "Brother Yao, don't be too anxious. Haste makes waste. When I was a kid, I learned the Yunshui Jue from my father in Deng clan. I studied it for three months. My understanding is pretty good.
Already."
Mei Mei also nodded and smiled sweetly: "Yao Lang, I also studied for three months back then. The first time, I only did five movements correctly. Your sister and I are still very knowledgeable."
"These forty-nine movements are actually very mysterious, but they look simple. The more you go on, the more difficult they become. However, I believe you can learn them faster than me, so just take your time."
Jiang Yao chuckled, showing the look of an honest person who was suddenly praised. He looked at Meimei calmly and found that she seemed to really think about him sincerely.
"Dad, is there any difference in the strength of this martial arts?" Jiang Yao asked.
Although Deng Jiu didn't want to answer these boring questions, he still explained very kindly and patiently: "The martial arts of Shenzhou are divided into seven realms. Each major realm is divided into the early stage, the middle stage, the late stage, and the four small stages of perfection.
, a total of four, seventy-eight and twenty-eight small realms.”
"The one with the highest realm has the power to move mountains and fill the sea, and the ability to cross the void; the one with the lowest realm has the power of the ten images and the ability to chase the wind. Yao'er, don't understand too much about the differences between martial arts realms. Such a big thing
So what if you know about magical powers? They are too far away from you and beyond your reach. Instead, you will be impatient and eager for success."
"What dad wants is for you to focus on the lowest first realm: the warrior realm. Don't worry about the other realms."
"Yes. I listen to dad." Jiang Yao didn't ask about the names of the other six realms. He felt that what his dad said made sense.
However, he was also a little surprised. In Taoism, nine is the major number, and four, nine, and thirty-six are also the number of Tiangang. Since martial arts is Tao, why does it only have seven major realms and twenty-eight minor realms? It shouldn't be three of the nine major realms.
Sixteen small realms?
Deng Jiu was very satisfied with Jiang Yao's reaction, "The reason why the lowest realm is called the warrior realm is because most of the military sergeants of large and small martial lords are in this realm, so it is called the warrior realm. This is
The name of the Divine Continent. As for other continents that are too far away, their names are different, but their strength is similar."
"When a mortal cultivates to transcendence and enters the Tao, he or she enters the realm of a warrior, with a life span of three hundred years. Every time he crosses a small realm, his life span increases by one hundred years. Every time he crosses a major realm, his life span increases by three hundred years. When he cultivates to the level of a warrior, his life span starts at six hundred years.
Yangshou."
The consummation of a warrior is six hundred years of life, which is amazing! Jiang Yao's desire to practice martial arts is in full swing, and her heart is full of expectations.
As for whether his cultivation would be exposed and his enemies would find him, he didn't care anymore.
Anyway, it's better than surviving as a serf.
Jiang Yao asked: "What are the cultivation levels of father and mother? Where are sister and Meimei?"
Deng Jiu said with some pride: "My father is a martial master, a level higher than a warrior, and so is your mother. Your sister and Meimei are both warriors."
He is indeed something to be proud of. In fact, although he pretends to be Jiang Yao's biological father, he is actually less than fifty years old. Fifty years old is still a young man for a martial arts master.
That's right, martial arts cultivators under a hundred years old are all young people.
Including Wei Rong, who pretends to be Jiang's mother, is less than fifty, but she is still a real big girl in martial arts.
It is indeed remarkable that someone who has cultivated to the second level of martial arts at such a young age is truly remarkable.
Jiang Cai and Mei Mei are actually about the same age. They are both in their early twenties. They are just little girls in martial arts. However, they have already reached the level of warrior perfection.
In fact, for the four people who are direct descendants of the second-class martial clan and have important missions, their qualifications and understanding are very good.
"Yao'er, dad will demonstrate the Yunshui Jue to you again. Every time, you will make new discoveries, do you understand? Remember, you must concentrate and calm your mind, and move your eyes at will, so that you can observe the details and understand the essence."
"yes."
For the next half day, Deng Jiu took the trouble to demonstrate the Yunshui Jue over and over again. Even Jiang Mu, Jiang Cai, and Meimei also demonstrated it many times. This moved Jiang Yao very much.
It took more than two hours for Jiang Yao to learn eighteen gestures correctly.
Sure enough, the further you go, the harder it is to learn a new gesture. Different gestures have only subtle differences, either in the shape of the fingers, the extent of the palm's extension, the direction of a certain finger, or the pause time of the gesture.
Or the height of lifting, or the amplitude of swing...
It's actually really not easy.
The gestures that can be learned correctly at the beginning are the most differentiated. As you go later, the differences in gestures become smaller, until they are so small that it is difficult to distinguish them.
Or, even if you can distinguish subtle differences, your hands can't make the difference.
To be able to distinguish subtle differences and make corresponding gestures at the same time, you need to feel the heart and hand.
When the Yunshui Jue is used correctly, a chain of forty-nine gestures can create an aura of aura and draw out the surrounding vitality.
Jiang Yao practiced over and over again, feeling both happy and surprised.
Originally, he thought that the so-called cultivation meant learning some mysterious mental method, meditating and breathing out, and holding cultivation resources in his hand...for example, pieces of spiritual stones, piles of spiritual stones, and pills that could be swallowed for free...
Who would have known that by practicing gestures like this from the beginning, I would be able to achieve my goal.
According to what his father said, it would take him at least a month to master the Yunshui Jue gestures alone.
The difficulty of cultivating the Tao is only now known.
