The previous chapter should have been Xu Fu, but there was a clerical error and it was revised at the time.
If you don't understand, just ask. Wang Xuan looked suspicious and temporarily interrupted Lao Chen.
"Old Chen, you are wrong. Could it be that you learned Bodhisattva Boxing from a ghost monk and want to switch to Buddhism? Why do you have the title of an ancient Buddha in your realm?"
Lao Chen shook his head and said: "The water in Buddhism is too deep, and I'm really afraid of abandoning the body at every turn. It's okay to learn their physical technique Bodhisattva Boxing, but if you ask me to switch to their fundamental method, I don't dare. I'm afraid
In the future, I can’t help but burn myself into a relic.”
Aoki was dumbfounded, feeling that his master was still very cautious.
After Lao Chen explained, he glanced at Wang Xuan and said: "When it comes to burning lamps, you actually have such an association. You can't do this. You should read more books related to the old art path to enrich your knowledge."
Wang Xuan wants to punch his old colleague. Is this a serious look at him?
Old Chen spoke earnestly and advised him to read more Taoist canons and browse books in the field of old arts when he had nothing to do, which would be beneficial to him.
Wang Xuan couldn't bear it. He had no choice. Now he couldn't beat Lao Chen. He not only had to be silent, but also listened humbly to what he said about the division of realms applicable to ancient and modern times.
Lao Chen explained: "Burning a lamp is a lamp of the heart. The light of the spirit illuminates the eternal night sky, allowing us to see the dim road ahead and recognize the direction."
Wang Xuan thought about it for a while and said: "Let me start from the beginning, what is the state of the fog? Have I reached this level?"
Lao Chen was surprised and said: "Didn't I say it last time? If we divide it by the ranks of Go, I have just become a professional chess player, but you are still polishing it with amateur chess players."
At this moment, not only Wang Xuan felt looked down upon, but Qingmu also felt like he was being attacked indiscriminately.
"Mist refers to a person who has just become a true practitioner. When he looks inward, he can see some conditions in his body, as if there is a hazy mist shrouding him." Lao Chen explained.
He noticed that the two people looked at each other unkindly and said: "Do you want me to classify 'amateur chess players'? Then I will simply say a few words, below the grandmaster, grandmaster, grand master, if you break through again, you will be a 'professional chess player'.
That is, a true practitioner in the field of old arts."
At this time, even Aoki wanted to hit his master! Those words were not very hurtful, but extremely insulting.
The Grandmaster has actually become a transitional unit, and the unification that has not been achieved is called under the Grandmaster. If this spread to the outside world, everyone would probably want to beat Lao Chen to death!
"Okay, go ahead and talk!" Wang Xuan didn't want to listen to his advice. He had to work hard to improve himself in the future so that he could give Lao Chen a good beating.
Lao Chen nodded and said: "I am in the fog stage now. When I first look at myself, my body is dark and I can't see the surrounding scenery."
Wang Xuan lamented that Lao Chen has now truly stepped into the mysterious realm of the old arts. This is a qualitative change, and he has begun to come into contact with the terrifying and powerful supernatural!
"Remember, the fog is not a false suggestion, but the scene I have actually seen. These are all words of experience. If you suddenly step into this level, don't be afraid, don't hesitate, you can see a little light in the fog, directly
Just keep pursuing it."
The so-called light refers to the spiritual realm.
Lao Chen smiled and said: "In the past, I triggered the touch state many times. Although it was a pity that I was not able to enter the interior location, my spirit changed qualitatively and finally formed the spiritual realm. For me, it is necessary to consolidate it and gain a little calmness and accumulation.
If you have time, you can light the lamp directly!”
The second level of the old art field, burning lamps, requires a deep enough accumulation of spiritual energy to be successful. However, it does not really ignite the spirit, but tempers the spiritual field and condenses it, and finally hangs like a lamp in the originally dark immortality.
Under the night sky, illuminate your own path and point out the way forward.
"Are these the real scenes you see when you look inside yourself?" Wang Xuan asked.
Lao Chen nodded, and then spoke of the third level, saying: "Although I have not yet entered the Lantern Realm, I can vaguely perceive the road behind it. Combined with the secret scenes of old techniques recorded in Daozang and pre-Qin bamboo slips,
I already understand what is going on at the third level, which is the 'life soil'. Do not underestimate or ignore this area, it is related to your future. Both the pre-Qin alchemists and the Taoists attach great importance to this area, which can nourish your life.
It is the place where vitality begins.”
He himself has not yet reached the level of life and earth, so he can only talk about it in general terms based on the records in the book, but cannot demonstrate the process of reaching it in detail.
"The fourth level is collecting herbs." Lao Chen quickly said the next level.
"Medicine collection, after entering this field, do you need to use medicinal herbs to practice?" Wang Xuan asked.
As a result, Wang Jiaozu was "beaten" again!
Lao Chen glanced at him and said: "When you were at work, I saw you secretly looking at Tao Zang every day. Where did you go? Didn't you see the term "herb collection"? This is a process that Taoists attach great importance to.
."
"Old Chen, you spy on me every day!"
Old Chen spoke righteously and said: "As a leader, I saw that you were not doing your job properly at work. I was tolerant enough without calling your name and deducting your salary. How could you slander the old leader like this?"
Wang Xuan was speechless and wanted to say, isn't that just a nursing home?
"Collecting medicine refers to picking the precious medicine in one's own body to achieve one's own success. When setting foot in this field, you must control the temperature of medicine gathering and be careful not to be careless. I will give you two books later and study them carefully. This kind of thing
It has always been kept secret, and has always been passed down orally from master to disciple, and the secrets are rarely recorded on paper."
What Lao Chen said is true. The secret of collecting herbs is extremely rare, extremely rare and valuable.
"Of course, you are practicing the root method on the bamboo slips of the pre-Qin Dynasty. Your foundation is solid enough. It doesn't matter if you don't have a secret. I will give you a little reference."
Wang Xuan nodded and continued to ask for advice.
Lao Chen said: "That's almost it. Let's talk about these four levels first. To keep a low profile, one needs to move forward step by step."
"You are not sure about the road ahead, are you?" Wang Xuan was suspicious.
Lao Chen nodded calmly and said: "The levels I mentioned are universal to all roads, and there are no problems or hidden dangers. I will be a little worried later."
He further added, saying: "After completing these four realms, whether you want to turn medicine into a golden elixir, follow the early Taoist path of emptiness and tranquility, or continue the splendid path of the pre-Qin alchemists,
It’s all no problem, you can continue!”
Lao Chen put his hands behind his back and looked calm. In a sense, the path he summarized from ancient books was indeed very safe.
From ancient times to the present, no matter what path people take, they cannot avoid these four levels.
"I don't know if it's a coincidence. I checked a lot of ancient books and found clues. I found that these four realms apply to all roads in ancient and modern times. They may also be vaguely related to those secret roads."
Lao Chen whispered and told a very surprising discovery. These were not things recorded directly on the paper, but what he detected from some code words.
"I won't talk about the level of fog. The burning lamp is the heart lamp lighting the way forward, which may have something to do with 'pathfinding'. As for the life and earth, it is said that the first person among the pre-Qin alchemists to enter the interior location was probably
It is triggered after setting foot on the soil of life. As for the field of medicine collection, if you can get the benefits of heavenly medicine in the future, it will be even more terrifying and powerful."
Wang Xuan was surprised and Qingmu was also in a daze. Lao Chen actually discovered these things from those classics. These realms are indeed very particular.
"However, ordinary people should not think about it. Even geniuses probably don't have to expect too much. Only extremely special or abnormal people may occasionally achieve something." After saying that, Lao Chen glanced at Wang Xuan. After all, Wang Jiaozu
It's a bit special, now you can enter the interior locations on your own.
Wang Xuan felt like he had been scolded, and he glared at Old Chen.
They chatted for a long time about this.
In the end, Lao Chen said with bright eyes: "As for the road ahead, we need you and me to practice it and have the courage to explore. The most brilliant era of the old skills has not yet come, waiting for you and me to rise!"
This time Aoki didn't despise his master in his heart. He suddenly felt that Lao Chen really had some ideas.
Wang Xuan pondered deeply and felt something in his heart, and said: "The old technique is not the same!"
"That's right, new techniques are not new!" Lao Chen nodded in response.
"How do you say it?" Wang Xuanhuo raised his head. He had never understood the new techniques in deep space and had not been fully exposed to them.
Lao Chen sneered and said: "The new technique is a big trap, and some people will be trapped sooner or later until their bones and scum are left!"
Then he turned to look at Aoki and said: "You can learn new techniques, but you can't completely fall into it. You need to confirm the learning with the old techniques."
Aoki was surprised. In the past, Lao Chen supported him in taking the new path of martial arts, but now his attitude has actually changed.
"I used to think that your old art path was coming to an end, so I asked you to try a new art path. But now you have Wang Jiaozu by your side. If you find an opportunity to go to the interior location once or twice, you can probably pave the way.
Your path. Besides, there is going to be Chen Randeng next to you soon. It doesn’t matter if you don’t go the new way, you can just learn from it!” Old Chen was quite confident.
Wang Xuan and Qingmu both looked at him, wanting to hear his further explanation.
As expected, Lao Chen had something to say. He sighed softly: "I also recently experienced what happened at the interior location, and I was instantly frightened. Comparing the two, I feel that the new technique will not be that simple!"
Then he asked: "Do you know where the new technique comes from?"
Wang Xuan said: "Didn't it mean that super matter was discovered in a mysterious place, and finally a new technique was developed by them?"
"How can they research that kind of thing? They are so good at beautifying themselves. The real situation is that they are all dug out of the soil!"
Lao Chen became extremely serious and said: "Don't you have any doubts? There are many types of new techniques, and they are very similar to the methods that people who have successfully practiced the old techniques in ancient times can manifest. As a result, those in the field of new techniques started with these
Something that is almost like a magic spell is really unusual. Of course, the power of the two is not the same."
Wang Xuan nodded, the new technique was indeed a bit strange.
Lao Chen said: "New techniques are not new, they are all dug out of the soil. I don't know how many years ago they were buried. Maybe even more amazing things will be dug up in the future. But I feel more and more,
This may be a big hole. I have some doubts. This is probably a benefit that someone deliberately left behind, waiting for latecomers to get in touch and explore in depth.”
Wang Xuan was surprised and said: "This method sounds a bit sophisticated and familiar. Why do I feel that it is similar to the trap left by the Yucheng people in the interior?"
Old Chen nodded solemnly and said: "I also experienced the interior location incident, and vaguely felt that the techniques were similar, so I became a little uneasy and suspicious."
"I think the ancients were too deceitful and should be beaten up. When found, they should be buried and burned!" Wang Xuan blurted out.
Soon, he glanced at the jade box containing the blackened bones not far away, and quickly added: "Only the sword fairy who does not cheat future generations, is kind-hearted, and is extremely beautiful is worthy of respect and is destined to live in the world forever!"
"So, those people in the new art field will cause terrible trouble in the end!" Lao Chen sighed.
Wang Xuan was a little confused and said: "Could it be said that immortals entered the starry sky earlier than modern people with super battleships?"
In addition, he thought about the fact that the female alchemist wanted to keep him in the old land for three years. Did she discover something after entering deep space?
