"Actually, the main purpose of cultivating Taoism is to pursue immortality! The main reliance is the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, this is it!"
A ball of gray air appeared in Tianci's hand, and then it shrank to form a small water ball that circulated on his fingertips.
"This is what you mainly studied before. It's in the right direction, but it's just a little slow!
What exactly is this spiritual energy? Have you studied it? How is it different from oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, etc.?
Of course, there is no need to focus our research on this. There are 361 Taoist sects and more than 3,000 techniques. In theory, different paths lead to the same goal."
Tianci poured the spiritual liquid from his fingertips into a small jade bottle and took out three spiritual fruits:
"You have all eaten this spiritual fruit just now. What are the ingredients here? Why can it extend life and be absorbed by the body? Why is it so delicious? You can study it!"
Divide the spiritual fruit into three jade vases and take out two wooden beads from the cloth bag. Previously, Tianci cut the eight-sided dragon subduing wood into a shadow-carrying scabbard, and the remaining parts were carved into eleven rosary beads and a
Big wooden ball (Jianlong Mugen). Looking at the two wooden beads spinning on his fingertips, Tianci continued:
"For example, this is a rosary made of eight-sided dragon-subduing wood. This thing has the effect of exorcising evil spirits and suppressing ghosts. Why can it exorcise evil spirits and suppress ghosts? You can study it carefully."
After saying that, he put the two beads into another jade bottle and took out a few yellow talismans:
"There are also these talisman papers. A simple piece of yellow paper, mixed with cinnabar, and then drawing these symbols according to fixed rules will become Tao talismans with specific functions. This one can kill ghosts, and this one can
Dingfeng, this one can ward off fire, this one can fix demons, these can also be studied and studied."
Put down the talisman in your hand:
"More than ten years ago, I once saw a person from the General Administration of Religion using a pistol engraved with runes. One shot could directly seriously injure ghosts! This can be the direction of your future research."
After a noisy discussion, Mu Yi slowly stood up, glanced at Tianci, and announced to everyone:
"After discussions between Chairman Wang and I, we decided that the group will set three research directions in the future, namely the application of utensils, Taoist spells, and spiritual elixirs. Of course, many times the three are the same, but each of the three groups has its own unique
Their respective specializations. Okay, then you can discuss it freely and choose the research direction according to your own wishes."
This was the first time Tianci had said so many words since he left the Lotus World. Looking at the admiring people below, his heart suddenly surged with overwhelming pride.
After the Taki Group was officially reorganized, Tianci, Mu Yi and other key members of the Taki Group first visited the city and county governments, and then visited the State Administration of Religion. Although the Taki Group is currently the most popular and powerful group, Tianci always firmly believes that
, regardless of human, material, or financial resources, there are some things that a company is not capable of.
The government and relevant departments are unavoidable. Instead of waiting passively, it is better to take the initiative. In particular, the General Administration of Religion has recruited a large number of capable people and strangers a long time ago, and these are precious research objects.
For the arrival of Tianci and others, the General Administration gave the highest level of reception. After several days of hard negotiations, the General Administration of Religion finally agreed in principle to merge some research groups under the General Administration into the Taki Group and reorganize the Taki Group.
According to the final decision: Tianci holds 20% of the shares, Muyi holds 30% of the shares, the General Administration and the local government jointly hold 40% of the shares, and the remaining 10% goes to the company's employees.
After being separated from Mu Yi and others, Tianci came to Baiyun Temple again.
Master Jingyong was receiving friends. When he heard that Tianci had arrived, he also invited them in.
"I've met my senior brother!"
Tianci was the first to salute. Master Jingyong looked at Tianci and said with great joy:
"Congratulations to my junior brother for successfully condensing the golden elixir."
"Thank you, senior brother. I am lucky enough to get the elixir. I have many questions and I want to ask senior brother for advice."
Master Jingyong nodded, turned to the yellow-robed old Taoist next to him and introduced:
"This is Pindao's old friend, Taoist Master Yang Weiwei; this is Pindao's junior fellow apprentice Shunyong, whose common name is Tianci."
Tianci hurriedly saluted:
"Tianci has met the Taoist priest!"
The old Taoist Huangpao quickly returned the gift:
"My fellow Taoist, I am very happy to be married to Jin Dan at such a young age."
After greeting each other, Tianci was not polite and directly asked various questions about cultivation. Then the three of them started to communicate. They said it was communication, but in fact it was Master Jingyong and Yang Weiwei, two old Jindan monks, who were answering various questions from Tianci.
kind of question.
After an unknown amount of time, the three finally stopped communicating. Tianci stood up and saluted solemnly:
"Thank you, senior brother, and thank you, Taoist Master Yang, for answering my questions."
The two of them nodded slightly, accepting the God-given thanks.
Taoist priest Yang Weiwei stroked his beard and looked at Tianci with a smile. He seemed to be very satisfied with this young disciple.
Master Jingyong thought for a moment and said to Tianci:
"Fellow Taoist Yang is here to invite fellow Taoist Pindao to explore Death Valley. Pindao is planning to practice in seclusion. Now that I have formed an elixir, would you like to follow Brother Yang?"
God-given salute:
"Thank you, senior brother, it's an honor for me.
Just now, I asked Taoist Master Yang to clarify my doubts. If you can find my place if it is useful, I will just send you."
Taoist priest Yang Weiwei returned the greeting and said:
"Thank you, little friend! Pindao has also invited Qingcheng Yamada Channel Master and Baima Temple Zen Master Xinyuan, and I and four other people will go with us."
"Yes, I will follow the Taoist Master's arrangements."
For the current Tianci, it is a good opportunity to be with the Jindan monks, and they can ask for advice and practice at any time.
As for adventurous exploration and so on, with so many powerful monks around, there will never be any danger.
"Okay, in the middle of next month, we will meet at the entrance of Kunlun Mountain and Death Valley."
"Okay, it's a deal! Then I won't disturb the communication between the two of you. Senior brother, Taoist Yang, take your leave!"
In the Sanyuan Jizhen Cave, the naked Tianci sat on the bamboo platform.
Perhaps the spiritual energy here is too dense. Every time he enters the cave, Tianci cannot help but take off his clothes and get naked to have close contact with the dense spiritual energy.
Recalling what Master Jingyong said before, Yang Weiwei, and reorganizing the information in his mind, Tianci gained a deeper understanding of cultivation:
What is the purpose of practice?
There is no doubt about it: eternal life.
The way of heaven exists forever!
To live forever is to go against nature.
After countless predecessors and sages studied, studied, and summarized the way of heaven, the Taoist practice of 361 disciplines and more than 3,000 techniques was finally formed.
There is no superiority or inferiority in the Dharma, and the great roads are interlinked.
The golden elixir method, respected by the sages of the past generations as the only correct way to practice Taoism, is the fastest method that is most suitable for mortals to practice immortality after countless years and practice by countless predecessors.
According to the summary of the predecessors and sages, the golden elixir path can be divided into the 'cultivation period' and the 'immortal cultivation period'.
The cultivation period is divided into four realms: refining Qi, refining Qi to transform into spirit, refining spirit to return to emptiness, and refining emptiness to combine with Tao. It can also be subdivided into: refining qi stage, foundation building stage, golden elixir stage, Nascent Soul stage, and transforming into spirit.
period, the period of integration, the period of transcending tribulation.
After the tribulation period, one becomes an immortal.
At the later stage of the transformation stage, you can leave the human world and ascend to the heavenly world;
Only after you overcome the tribulation and become an immortal can you live forever.
According to what the two said:
The essence of the golden elixir is the way of cultivating the soul.
The four stages of cultivation, namely Golden elixir, Nascent Soul, Transformation, and Integration, are all about the "three souls" of the human body.
The human body has ‘three souls and seven souls’:
Three souls: Fei Guang (Heaven Soul), Shuang Ling (Earth Soul), and You Jing (Human Soul);
The seven souls are: lying arrow, corpse dog, smelly lungs, swallowing thieves, removing filth, non-poison, sparrow yin.
The way of golden elixir cultivates the ‘three souls’:
Fetal light: It controls the life of the human body, governs Yang, and is the link between the human body and heaven and earth. When the fetal light exists, life is alive, and when the fetal light disappears, the person dies. It is taken from Taihe, and returns to Taihe after death.
Shuangling: governs Yin, controls the good and evil of the human body, blessings and merits, corresponds to the fetal light, and returns to the ghost house after death.
Ghost spirit: The essence of the seven souls gathers together and is called the ghost spirit. It controls people's thoughts and wisdom, carries the hopes of the clan and parents, and dissipates in the place of death and around the tomb after death.
During the Qi refining period, you can feel the spiritual energy of heaven and earth;
In the foundation building stage and the golden elixir stage, what is cultivated is the golden elixir of the lower dantian—fetal light;
In the Nascent Soul stage, what is cultivated is the Nascent Soul of the middle Dantian - Shuangling;
In the stage of transformation, what is cultivated is the Yuan Shen of the Upper Dantian - Youjing;
The integration stage is to fuse the Yuanshen of the upper Dantian, the Yuanying of the middle Dantian, and the golden elixir of the lower Dantian into one. When the integration period is completed, the three souls merge into one, and the unified soul can abandon the physical body and turn to the ghost path.
, enter the underworld and the ghost house; the soul can also go through the tribulation alone, that is, it is the Yang God; it can also bring the body with it to go through the tribulation. After undergoing the punishment of heaven and refining the body, the body can be free from heaven and earth, and it is called an 'immortal'.
As for how to practice after becoming an immortal, there is no way of knowing.
Now that the God-given golden elixir has been successfully condensed, when the cultivation of the golden elixir reaches the Great Perfection, the cultivation of the ‘Heavenly Soul·Embryonic Light’ will be completed;
After that, you can cultivate the space in the middle Dantian, condense the refreshing spirit into Yuanying, strengthen the Yuanying, and balance it with the yin and yang of the Jindan in the lower Dantian.
The Golden Elixir (Heaven Soul) governs Yang, Yuanying (Earth Soul) governs Yin, and Yin and Yang work together, so you can open up the upper Dantian to condense the "human soul" and further harmonize the Yin and Yang in the body.
After the experience and doubts of his senior brothers Jingyong Zhenren and Yang Weiwei, Tianci gained a new understanding of the method of condensing the golden elixir. Based on the two people's summary and teaching methods, combined with the three-yuan Jiuzhen Cave Heavenly Treasure Land, Tianci estimated that at least
In fifty years, or at most a hundred years, the golden elixir can be condensed nine times to perfection.
Time was not waiting for me, Tianci began to calm down his mind, look inwards with his spiritual consciousness, and continued to condense the golden elixir.
