Seizing the silk book from the strange woman, Xu Dao immediately fled out of the valley.
He used his magical power and ran wildly wrapped in a silk book and a dozen or so earthworms.
He also gave the order to fight to the death for the rest of the earthworms. Even if the strange woman wanted to save the lives of one or two earthworms, they would all self-destruct to prevent the woman from taking advantage of her.
Xu Dao escaped from the trough, made several circles on the road, and pretended to get into a cave, where he stayed for most of an hour.
After confirming that the woman had been shaken off by him, Xu Daofang took the silk book and flew back to the cave.
A dozen or so earthworms returned to the cave, and Xu Dao's Yin spirit immediately jumped out of the earthworm's body, landed on his body, and settled on the spiritual platform.
His eyes opened suddenly, with joy in them.
Xu Dao stretched out his hand to take the silk book held by the fox, waved it away, lowered his head and looked at the silk book.
This book is light yellow in color, soft to the touch, and is between sizes. There is only one page.
One side of the painting has palm skills routines and a figure with a glaring thunderous face. There are patterns like thunder patterns all over the figure, twisting and twisting like snakes and insects.
Xu Dao looked directly at the past, and suddenly felt his eyes stinging, as if he had the energy to escape from the pattern, making it difficult for him to open his eyes.
Seeing this situation, Xu Dao was not surprised but overjoyed. He quickly stretched out his hand to press the figure picture and turned over to read the text on the back of the silk book.
After reading it roughly, Xu Dao suddenly had a look of enlightenment in his eyes.
If it is what the strange man said, this is a physical training method called "Yin Lei Method of Tanzhong Palm". It can refine Qi and boil Qi and blood. It is a physical training palm method.
The path followed by this palm technique is not the path of immortality, but the path of martial arts.
When Xu Dao sought a breakthrough to the realm of Qi refining, he faced four choices.
The first is to practice breathing magic and plant talismans in the soul, which can make the true energy continue to grow and break through to refine the energy; the second is to refine the heavenly materials and earthly treasures in the soul, which can also condense the true energy and stabilize the soul.
Enter the realm of Qi refining;
Both of these are orthodox immortal ways, and they are indistinguishable from each other. What they practice is the soul, not the physical body. They only try to use various means to make the Yin God continue to shed Yin and transform into Yang, until they become Yang God and live forever.
The third type is to place the Yin God on external objects, refine the natal magic weapon, and use the weapon to protect the soul.
This path used to be called weapon cultivation, but now it is called "sword cultivation", and it is the path of sword immortals.
As for the fourth type, it is not cultivating the Yin spirit but cultivating the physical body, and a breath of true energy enters the body.
This path used to be called physical cultivation, and it was subordinate to the immortal path just like weapon cultivation. Now it is its own path, and is called "martial arts" in the world.
Generally speaking, from the time of the Immortal Qin Qi Master to today, there are three paths to immortality in the world: the Immortal Way, the Sword Immortal Way, and the Martial Way.
The former cultivates the soul, the middle cultivates objects, and the latter cultivates the body.
Among them, the immortal way is the most important, it is easier to live forever, and its methods are weird and diverse, with infinite power, overwhelming the world; the sword immortal and martial arts are second, but they are also impressive, and those who have achieved great success can also obtain immortality.
Before Xu Dao got the unmarked urn, he had considered whether to change his true energy into the middle Dantian and practice physical martial arts.
It's just that this path is far less noble than the immortal path, and White Bone Temple doesn't pay much attention to it. He himself is even more unclear about whether he has martial arts talent, so he didn't implement it.
But what needs to be understood has been understood by many Taoists.
Now that he had obtained a martial arts technique, which was the best in the body-refining realm, he immediately began to think about this path that was different from the immortal way.
Xu Dao thought to himself: "The three paths of immortality, swordsmanship, and martial arts. Among them, sword immortality always has the word "xian" in it and is subordinate to the immortality path. However, the two paths of immortality and martial arts run in opposite directions and it is difficult to conspire with each other."
Moreover, practicing the spiritual path is not expensive, and it is difficult to practice the immortal way. What's more, it is unwise to practice martial arts where immortality is even more difficult to achieve... it is really unwise.
According to Xu Dao's previous understanding, there are indeed people in the world who rely on their own talents to practice immortality and martial arts, but most of them are worried about one thing and losing the other. There are few who succeed, and most of them fail to achieve anything, and they just waste their time and talent.
At least in the White Bone Temple, Xu Dao has never seen anyone choose to practice the Immortal Martial Arts together.
But today, as he held the silk book in his hands, he was ready to move:
"But there is also a saying in the world that 'stones from other mountains can attack jade'. Cultivation is an empirical knowledge. It requires reading a lot of books and being familiar with yin and yang, so that you can draw parallels and have few worries... Martial arts may also be studied along the way.
Research."
In the past, Xu Dao would never have dared to think about this. After all, his qualifications were ordinary and he needed to be self-aware.
But now that he has the uncharacterized urn in hand, he can use it to improve his spell proficiency. As long as the uncharacterized urn can also improve his martial arts proficiency, he doesn't care if he practices one more martial arts, or even a few.
After thinking about it carefully, Xu Dao remembered that his top priority was to collect yang energy and refine it into the yin spirit.
He burst into laughter for a moment, secretly thinking that he was thinking too much.
However, the matter of refining Yang Qi can also be solved by practicing the "Yin Thunder Method of Tanzhong Palm".
"Yin Lei Method in the Palm of Tanzhong" is a thunder method, which practices the energy of thunder and fire. This energy is extremely powerful and masculine.
If Xu Dao practices this method, the energy of thunder and fire will appear every time he practices. He uses the Yin spirit to collect it, just like collecting sunlight, which can add Yang energy.
Moreover, this energy was born from his own body, and he used his own yin spirit to collect it. It is beneficial and harmless, and is far more convenient than refining masculine spiritual objects or refining sunlight.
"The practice of immortality already has the technique of 'returning essence and replenishing the brain'. Its essence is to transform the essence of the physical body into the spiritual energy of the soul, and take nutrients from the physical body to supply the Yins and Gods. However, this method can easily deplete the physical body and cause a reduction in the body's lifespan.
Damage, but I have martial arts skills to strengthen my body, and I can pick them up as I go without hurting my origin, so it should be fine."
Xu Dao thought about it, secretly saying that this method is feasible. Its only drawback may be that it will hinder the cultivation of the physical body and damage the true energy.
But he is a monk of the immortal way. Now he has just tasted the martial arts for the first time and uses it to assist the immortal way. He doesn't care much about the cultivation of the physical body.
After clarifying his thoughts, Xu Dao immediately held up the silk book and began to read it carefully.
There were not many words in the book, so he read it three times and memorized it in about half a quarter of an hour.
The practice of martial arts is somewhat similar to the practice of immortal magic. The latter is to visualize the pattern of the spell in the mind, while the former is to visualize the true meaning of the technique in the mind.
For example, Xu Dao is currently practicing the "Yin Thunder Method in the Palm of Tanzhong". After writing down the formula, he moved his true energy into the middle Dantian, and visualized a picture of the God of Thunder in his mind, imagining himself as the God of Thunder, controlling the body.
Thunder and fire can ward off ghosts and monsters.
Then, use the palm techniques written on the silk book to move the luck on the fingertips and palms, turning the true energy into the breath of thunder and fire, and then tempering the body, making the skin and flesh hard and strong.
Xu Dao referred to the silk book and pondered for a long time on his own and wrote down the palm skills. However, when he really started practicing and wanted to visualize the Thunder God's diagram in his heart and understand its true meaning, it took a long time.
Didn't even touch the door.
Xu Dao immediately knew that his talent in martial arts was just as ordinary and unremarkable.
Then, he took out the unmarked jar, took out the talisman and ink, printed the unmarked jar directly on the "Shanzhong Palm Yin Thunder Method", and began to copy the picture of the God of Thunder on it...
