After a few days of rest, walking around, and adjusting his mentality, Liu Qiao began to retreat.
In the quiet room, there is an extra round-belly incense burner. From several holes, wisps of green smoke float out, and sandalwood incense fills the room.
Liu Qiaofu sat on a futon, calmed his mind, and chanted the mantra of Yuxu's general outline of Qi refining.
Gradually, from chanting to chanting silently, the various thoughts in my mind gradually subsided.
Qi practitioners do not eat grains, do not know hunger or thirst, and can sit for long periods of time.
I don’t know how long it’s been like this…
Liu Qiao was still sitting on the futon, motionless. A thin layer of dust had accumulated on his robe.
All the thoughts in my mind gradually stopped, without thoughts or thoughts, as if I was sleeping.
This is: Heart like purple gray
His face was haggard and he seemed to be a little out of shape, his beard and hair were disheveled and dry, like a thousand-year-old corpse.
This is: to describe decay.
The Taoist Scriptures say: [The shape is like a gnarled tree. The heart is as purple as gray, the spiritual consciousness is guarded within, the will is not scattered, and the mind is lost in concentration]
Humans have three souls and seven souls, but they are not all in the body, in heaven, on earth, or wandering.
One soul is in the sky (heaven), and one soul is in the underworld (earth). Only one soul is always in the body.
This scattered soul will reveal its own information and be easily harmed by evil magic. After being seduced by others, it will be cursed.
Those with great supernatural powers want to know what words and actions people have not yet refined. It is like looking at the lines on the palm of a hand.
Therefore, the first step is to keep your mind clear of distracting thoughts, speak quietly, and recall the three souls into your body.
The Taoist Scripture says, "Don't let it leak out, it's hidden in the body. You teach me to preach and make yourself prosperous." Of course, this sentence also refers to Yuanyang not leaking out.
Liu Qiao was in the darkness, and he recalled his three souls, which condensed into one thing, scattering immeasurable light, and gradually refined from falsehood to reality.
I don’t know how long it took, but this little light finally stabilized in a stable state, no matter how wind blew or rained, it never wavered or scattered, just like a grain of real gold.
In the quiet room, Liu Qiao's breathing seemed to be there but not at all, and his body was like a deceased person.
Suddenly, a ray of light rose from the fontanelle, vaguely showing a face, hands and feet.
The light wandered around, circled around the room, and then flew back to the body.
Liu Qiao opened his eyes. Although his body was withered after sitting for a long time, his energy was not damaged. He could recover after a few days of cultivation.
"The Yin Shen has begun to take shape, but it has not yet been refined. It is still a piece of adobe and cannot withstand the wind and rain." A slightly hoarse voice came from his mouth.
Liu Qiao was stunned and surprised. He quickly counted and found that two years had passed.
No wonder his body is withered and decayed, as if he can no longer speak.
I don’t know how those qi-refining practitioners who have been sitting in seclusion for decades can ensure that their blood and qi are flowing smoothly and their bodies are invincible.
Slowly move your body, knead and massage your legs and feet, stand up, and slowly walk in the quiet room to stretch your muscles and bones.
There are two types of Yuan Shen, one is called Yin Shen and the other is called Yang Shen. The two are very different.
Yinshen are no different from ghosts, except they can travel during the day.
The Yang God is like the sun and moon, and can sense the universe, so it is a world of difference.
It's the difference between sand and gold.
Therefore, it is gratifying to refine the yin spirit, but there is still a long way to go before the primordial spirit can be completely perfected and the pure yang spirit can be refined.
"Although it is only preliminary practice, it can reverse catastrophes, and it can be considered as an opportunity for trial and error, and it also has some special powers." Liu Qiao was quite happy in his heart.
When he closed his eyes, it was completely dark, but he could vaguely sense where the door was and the extinguished incense burner was two steps away from him.
You don't see it with your eyes, you feel it. This feeling is very magical.
For example, if you want to know if there is anyone outside the door, if you think deeply, you will have a sixth sense that tells you that there is no one outside the door.
Liu Qiao had seen cultivation in his previous life and knew that there was something called "spiritual consciousness" in it. It was like a scanner. It seemed to have an extra eye when observing within a radius of several miles.
The ability of Yin Shen sounds somewhat similar to that of divine consciousness. In fact, the two are not the same. They are simply as different as clouds and mud.
Compared with the rough spiritual exploration in Chinese, Yin Shen cannot see anything clearly, nor can it replace eyes.
It's a kind of secret feeling, like what women call the sixth sense.
You will know victory or defeat by smelling the wind, you will know the weapons by smelling the breath, and you will know the cicada before the autumn wind moves.
This kind of feeling is very mysterious and cannot be described in words.
To put it bluntly, it's like Spider-Man's spider sense, which can predict many things in advance.
The primordial spirit becomes pure Yang and can know in advance, so they are chess players. It is possible to throw something casually, but it will be hundreds of years later.
Many of their layouts are completely incomprehensible to those who have no prior knowledge.
Just like mayflies, no matter how powerful their supernatural powers are, they can only live and die under their "time tactics".
The Yin Shen is also the Yuan Shen. It can be regarded as the prototype state of the Yuan Shen. It can only be slightly predicted. It cannot be compared with the pure Yang Yuan Shen in the Dacheng state, which can sense the universe.
"No wonder many old monsters who have been practicing for thousands of years sometimes feel stupid when doing things, as if they are actively heading towards death!"
"It should be that there is a higher level of power that reverses yin and yang and deceives or changes their prediction."
While Liu Qiao was familiar with the mysteries of Yin Shen, he was deep in thought.
But even if you know, what can you do?
It is estimated that many masters who were tricked to death, such as Bai Hong's father-in-law, also know this truth.
The key point is that the sixth sense, this mysterious induction, actually affects the behavior of the Qi Refiner at all times.
It is also very accurate and will not make mistakes.
Because even if the power can reverse yin and yang, the soul is an extension of the self-consciousness.
It won't hurt you, it will just give you the best choices like a computer machine.
People who have cultivated the soul may also know that it will be fine if they cannot go out in seclusion.
But the feeling in his heart kept warning him, and the secret of heaven was reminding him that although he could avoid it for a while by closing the cave tightly, he could not avoid it for the rest of his life.
Misfortunes will only accumulate. If you die early or die late, you will have to die. If you die early, you may be able to reverse the calamity or by chance, but if you die late, you will really die.
It's better to go out on your own initiative to deal with the disaster first, or maybe have a glimmer of hope.
And then...and then nothing more.
"That's what the True Lord Daode meant when he said that the sky is hanging down like an elephant..." Liu Qiao sighed.
It means just follow your feelings and move forward, and you won’t go wrong.
However, True Lord Daode told him in advance, did he predict that he would become a soul now?
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As soon as Liu Qiao came up with this idea, his spiritual sense told him that this guess was correct.
He shook his head to get rid of these complicated thoughts, and said happily: "I have been practicing for more than ten years, and today I have begun to break away from the world. Some things can be understood with just a few calculations."
Before becoming a primordial spirit, they are still just ephemera and ants, and have nothing to do with the divine passage method.
After cultivating the Yuanshen, even if it is just a low-level Yin Shen, at least you can know a little bit about many things and the layout of the almighty.
At least, you will know why you died.
This can be regarded as transcending the vulgar and ascending to the true, from being a heretic to a side sect.
"Don't be anxious about the follow-up Yin Shen practice. Get out of seclusion first and practice Taoism."
The condensation of Yin Shen is only the beginning. Only after the subsequent steps such as coming out of the shell and wandering in the mind can it be considered a real success.
It is easy to emerge from the shell, but the Yin Shen is too fragile when it is born. It is cut by the wind like a knife and hit by the rain like a hammer.
You must undergo training before you can travel to all directions.
First go through the night and then wander around in the morning and evening. This is called water refining.
After the water refining, the Yin Shen becomes more stable and goes out again at noon. This is called fire refining.
After being tempered by water and fire, until you can travel during the day without fear of wind and thunder, and become unpredictable, then the Yin Shen has truly been cultivated.
As for Yang Shen, it has nothing to do with these at all, and it is not something Liu Qiao can guess at his level.
…
Time flies, the years pass by, and before I know it, another two years have passed, and it is already the twenty-first year of Emperor Xin.
In the past few years, Master Liu Qiao and his disciples hid in Jinshi Mountain and never went out again.
Either collecting herbs in the mountains, playing chess with master and apprentice, or practicing magic.
I don’t feel lonely at all. Every day is fulfilling and I am making progress every day.
Chang Long's spiritual practice is different from that of other people. Although he has practiced Taoism for nearly a thousand years, he has never been able to cultivate into a Yin Shen.
Liu Qiao pointed out the key points many times, but he only had a slight understanding, but if he really wants to practice Yin Shen, he still needs time to accumulate.
His martial arts skills became more and more unpredictable. At the beginning, he gave way to Liu Qiao, but the two of them could still fight hundreds of moves.
Later, without him giving in, he could only fight for more than ten moves before knocking off the sword in Liu Qiao's hand.
With continuous actual combat, Liu Qiao himself is extremely talented and talented, and his martial arts skills are naturally improving.
But Chang Long's martial arts has never improved faster than Chang Long. Now, Chang Long is proficient in every weapon of Class 18.
Even with a soft bamboo stick as thick as a thumb, Liu Qiao couldn't break through his flimsy bamboo stick even with heavy weapons like his double mace.
Moreover, Chang Long did not fight back the whole time, but only passively resisted. This shows that his martial arts skills were so high that Liu Qiao could not match them for a long time.
Not only was Liu Qiao not jealous of his apprentice's progress in martial arts, but he was even more pleased with it.
Qi refiners have a long lifespan and basically never die of old age. What is the purpose of teaching disciples?
Isn't it just for the sake of being better than the old and better than the old?
The master does not need to be better than the apprentice. It is best for each apprentice to have something he is good at and be better than himself.
Of course, Liu Qiao's talent in martial arts is not as good as that of Chang Long, but he can still be considered above average.
The most important thing is the talent in spiritual practice and Taoist magic.
Just two years have passed, and the Yin Shen has been refined through water and fire. He can travel hundreds of miles during the day and be out of the body for seven days.
Moreover, it is still tempered by water and fire, and the whole process is not assisted by any cinnabar or elixir.
According to what Huangjiao Daxian said, for ordinary people, it takes more than ten years for the Yin Shen to be fully formed and to be refined through water and fire.
You also have to practice the method of subduing fire to refine sand, use spiritual pills to nourish your energy, and immortal dew to nourish your soul to avoid damage and slow progress.
Therefore, Liu Qiao's talent in practicing magic is evident.
In addition, the Five Elements Escape Technique has also made great progress, although it has not yet reached the stage of cultivating magical powers and escaping with just a thought.
Liu Qiao once thought that there are several levels of Five Elements Taoism.
At the first level, when you first get a glimpse of the method, you can only say that it can be used, but sometimes it doesn't work well, it is not stable, or when you are frightened or panicked, you make the wrong move and cannot perform it.
At the second level, those who are proficient in their studies are already very skilled. They can escape with just a splash of sand. They will not be affected by their mentality or external dangers, and they can use it like an arm.
The third level, which has been thoroughly practiced, although it requires kneading and twisting incantations, and still requires mana, can barely escape by borrowing objects. There is no need for complicated incantations, kneading, or sprinkling sand or water.
The fourth level is to refine magical powers and generate five-element talismans in the soul. They can be cast with just a thought. No magic power is needed. Things can go away when they touch them. Water, fire and the five elements cannot harm the body.
The original Liu Qiao was at the second level, a proficient stage, and could perform it skillfully.
Now after two years of practice, I have become more and more familiar with it. Just practicing the escape technique has wasted more than ten years of mana.
Finally, a few days ago, I reached the third level. I could recite the mantra silently in my mind and make a secret to escape without having to sprinkle sand or water.
There is only one step away from mastering the Five Escapes magical powers.
However, Five Elements Taoism is a Taoism that becomes more difficult the more you practice it, and is easy to learn but difficult to master. It is broad and profound, although it is only a little short of it, but it is like a chasm in the sky.
Countless masters have been stuck in the third stage for thousands or thousands of years and have never been able to develop magical powers.
Even though Liu Qiao was so talented, he had no confidence that he would be able to develop magical powers in a short period of time.
On this day, in the courtyard of the Haze View, the fairy trees shone brightly and shed endless mist.
"Hey...ha!" Chang Long Chifu danced with two hundred-refined hammers weighing dozens of kilograms each, his arms seemed to be carrying feathers, and he jumped as fast as flying.
Liu Qiao was wearing an apricot Taoist robe, with big sleeves fluttering, and his bun was tied up with a green scarf. He stood aside and watched, nodding in praise from time to time, with a faint smile.
Xianfeng Daogu is like an expert in the gods, oh no! He is a person among the gods.
After cultivating the soul, one can be regarded as a true immortal.
After a while, Chang Long stopped practicing, gathered his hands together, weighing two hundred kilograms, and pulled out a pair of hundred-forged hammers as big as a bucket. He had been dancing for half an hour without even a drop of sweat on his body.
It is obvious that his martial arts skills are unfathomable, his divine power has never been exhausted, and his energy is abundant.
When Liu Qiao saw him stop, he stroked his beard and said with a smile: "What, you still don't want to take advantage of me?"
Chang Long shook his head and said: "It's not that I don't take advantage of it. I'm equally proficient in dozens of instruments. The key is that they are too light, and it seems like I don't exert any effort when dancing."
Liu Qiao heard this and said helplessly: "This is a magic weapon. Although it is ordinary iron, it has been tempered with Samadhi fire by a poor Taoist, but you still think it is too light. If you make it bigger, you won't be able to hold it back?"
However, Chang Long's martial arts skills increased and his strength became longer and longer. It wasn't that he couldn't hold heavy weapons before, but he couldn't dance for long without breaking out in sweat.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Now he has been dancing for several days and nights, and he does not feel tired. Naturally, he feels that the steel gun in his hand is too light.
Liu Qiao happened to be studying alchemy, so he asked him to get some iron materials and gave him nine turns in the furnace to make a handy weapon.
First, there is an iron spear, which weighs thirty kilograms and is slightly thicker than a goose egg. It can pierce rocks without breaking the blade.
But Chang Long felt that it was too light, so he went back to the furnace and tried again.
After doing this several times, he finally made a Overlord Spear, which weighed a hundred kilograms but was thicker than the mouth of a bowl. When Chang Long used it, he not only felt it was light, but also felt uncomfortable.
After all, the hand is only so big, but the gun is too thick to hold.
Then we can only change the shape of the weapon, and then in the past few months, Liu Qiao burned it in a furnace, and Chang Long hammered the shape himself.
Double whip, single whip, four-edged mace, pagoda mace, Yanling sword, single sword, double sword, heavy spine sword.
The weapons became heavier and heavier, but Chang Long still felt that they were too light and did not take advantage of them.
Today's double hammers are the largest and heaviest weapons that Chang Long can hold in his hands, considering the size of his hand.
Chang Long smiled bitterly and said: "It's not that the master's skills are not good, it's that the material is not good. I took advantage of it, but it was too light. I didn't dare to let go..."
"Whether it's a gold spirit or a mortal iron, it's just like that at best, unless..." Liu Qiao said, twisting his beard.
"Unless what?" Chang Long's eyes lit up.
Liu Qiao turned around and muttered: "Unless it is the Ruyi Divine Weapon, which weighs tens of thousands of kilograms and can be reduced to the size of a hand."
"Yes!" Chang Long said with fascination.
"But the Ruyi Divine Weapon is rare in the first place, and it cannot be cultivated without the Immortal Furnace. As a teacher, there is nothing I can do..." Liu Qiao thought for a while, and finally shook his head helplessly.
During the time when I was helping Chang Long burn weapons, he was originally going to study alchemy.
For this reason, Liu Qiao did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to dissect the Taiyi Dan for study and comparison. He had no choice but to do this without the Danding inheritance.
In the end, hundreds of furnaces were scrapped and only a few furnaces of herbal balls were used to treat bruises and sprains.
However, although the alchemy was not successful, the skill of alchemy improved rapidly through the experience of helping Chang Long to calcine weapons.
Nowadays, ordinary iron can be used to make iron essence or various fairy weapons.
But he still couldn't satisfy Chang Long, but he threw his sword into the furnace and exercised it, and it became even more magical.
Seeing that Chang Long was a little frustrated, Liu Qiao comforted him and said: "Let's just use it for now. Besides, although you are a dragon and have the strength of nine oxen, can you still dance weapons weighing tens of thousands of kilograms?"
Not everyone can compare to Sun Dasheng. Brother Monkey's awesomeness has never been about changes and soaring clouds, but about martial arts.
A golden hoop weighing tens of thousands of kilograms can be wielded like an arm, no matter what gods and monsters you are, it will hurt you if you rub it, and you will die if you touch it.
After all, under the influence of force, a weapon weighing tens of thousands of kilograms can produce dozens of times the effect at any time.
Even if an ordinary person takes a bamboo pole weighing half a kilogram and swings it out with all his strength, a hundred or ten kilograms of force will fall down in an instant.
What's more, it's an artifact like the Golden Cudgel that weighs tens of thousands of kilograms. It's scary to think about it.
"That's all we have to do. Although it's a little lighter, it's better than nothing." Chang Long said.
Liu Qiao sighed: "If I can find a lot of fairy iron, cold iron, metal essence and other materials in the future, I can try to make a wish-fulfilling magic weapon for you."
"But now, it's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice..."
After Liu Qiao finished speaking, he was about to walk back with his hands behind his back when he suddenly had a sudden impulse.
People who practice Buddhism will not be invaded by the eight evils, will not get sick, and their thoughts and movements will all be felt by the soul, and whatever happens is related to them.
Then he quickly stopped and counted with his fingers.
Seeing the cautious look on Master's face, Chang Long hurriedly came up and said, "Master, is there someone plotting against you or trying to kill us?"
Liu Qiao stopped calculating, shook his head and said: "No...but the time has come..."
"Timing...what timing?"
Seeing Chang Long's puzzled face, Liu Qiao smiled meaningfully and said: "The destined person is in trouble on our territory. I have been taken care of by the Qingxu lineage, so I must go there."
Then he said to the confused Chang Long: "You are waiting at home for a long time. Without my order, you are not allowed to go down the mountain even half a step."
After saying this, he immediately entered Langhuan Pavilion, took out his sword, swung his body, turned into a rainbow, and headed north.

Introduction:
In a strange and inexplicable world, the world is upside down, and the eyes are the sun and the moon. The demon calls the divine dove to occupy the magpie's nest, and steals the divine power in the name of the god. Li Mumin, a disciple of Maoshan, traveled through time to ask for divine magic to rectify the chaos and trace the source.
I am also a god when I conquer the heavens on behalf of the gods. If the gods abandon all sentient beings, they can take their place.
