Huo Chunyan sighed softly and was very envious of the fact that Xu Chunniang had learned how to control a sword.
"If I had known that I was like you, I would have concentrated on learning the art of sword control first. I wouldn't be like this now, running around between various teaching rooms every day. It takes me three quarters to go back from the main peak every day."
"It's not too late to make changes."
Huo Chunyan was a little moved, and after thinking for a moment, she shook her head.
"Forget it, I've been persisting for a month. If I study for a few more days, I won't have to use this exercise class. Then I will be able to relax. And just learning sword control every day is too boring and boring. I can't persist.
.”
After hearing what she said, Xu Chunniang didn't say anything more.
What works for her may not work for everyone.
While the two were talking, people moved stools one after another and squeezed into the empty space behind the teaching room to sit down.
It wasn't until the entire teaching room could no longer accommodate any more monks that the Jindan monk who was teaching walked in slowly.
The originally noisy and crowded classroom suddenly became quiet the moment it appeared, and you could hear a needle drop.
The Jindan monk looked around and saw many new faces. He didn't care and started to lecture directly.
"Last time we talked about how cultivators refine their bodies. If they want to merge with heaven and earth, they must refine hundreds of meridians and meridians internally, so that both true energy and spiritual energy can coexist and circulate around.
By guiding the Qi, gathering the Qi and uniting the spirit, until the body is filled with true Qi, only in this way can the golden elixir path be achieved."
Having said this, he paused for a moment, and then continued after a while.
"This process is simple to say, but it is not easy to do. What you need to understand is that practice is not a simple superposition of cultivation, but a long process of communicating with the five elements of heaven and earth and harmonizing the two qi of yin and yang.
These may be too obscure and profound for those of you who have just embarked on the path of spiritual practice. There is no need to rush to understand them all at once. As your realm improves, you will eventually understand the essence of spiritual practice."
The Jindan monk's views on cultivation were naturally beyond the reach of these newly established monks, so even though everyone had only a half-understanding, they still memorized every word the elder said.
After the class, everyone was in a fog, as if they were listening to a book from heaven. They could only understand some of the related descriptions of Xiaoyao Jue.
As they walked outside, they shook their heads helplessly and communicated through sound transmission with their spiritual consciousness.
"Alas, I can't understand it, and I can't learn it. I'd better just practice with spiritual energy."
"I can use the true energy as a guide to absorb the spiritual energy to practice the Xiaoyao Jue, but the efficiency is really too slow, more than three times slower than using the spiritual energy alone. I don't know how long I can persist with this method."
Huo Chunyan frowned and thought hard, then suddenly a look of surprise appeared on her face, "I understand!"
Seeing other people looking at her, she didn't want to say anything. She used her spiritual consciousness to transmit messages to Xu Chunniang and share what she had gained.
"The practice of Xiaoyao Jue in the foundation building stage not only requires spiritual energy, but also the true energy as a guide. Although using spiritual energy alone can also increase the level of cultivation, when practicing the technique, the two energies coexist, and the practice effect is the best."
Xu Chunniang nodded, she and Huo Chunyan had the same view.
The key to sword control is this true energy. The practice of Xiaoyaojue also requires true energy, and to achieve the golden elixir path, one needs to have the full amount of true energy in the body.
This shows the importance of this true energy.
She followed Huo Chunyan's method and turned her spiritual consciousness into thin threads to transmit sounds into the secret. Sure enough, she succeeded after only one try.
"Although spiritual energy is important, true energy is also indispensable. Containing true energy within the body and blending with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth may be the real reason why Jindan monks can control the sky."
Although foundation-building monks have the ability to soar into the air, they must wield weapons to fly.
However, the Jindan cultivator can directly fly into the air without relying on any external force.
Huo Chunyan's eyes lit up and she spoke with some excitement.
"Does it mean that as long as I keep increasing the true energy in my body, I will be able to form elixirs?"
Xu Chunniang shook her head and replied through voice transmission, "Zhen Qi is the guide and spiritual energy is the main one. Zhen Qi alone is definitely not enough."
Huo Chunyan nodded thoughtfully. When she practiced Xiaoyao Jue before, she had directly absorbed spiritual energy.
It seems that changes need to be made in the future.
Seeing that everyone in the teaching room was almost gone, the two of them got up and walked outside slowly.
After walking out of the teaching hall, Huo Chunyan felt relaxed all over.
"I have no classes this afternoon. I can finally have a good sleep after I go back. I haven't had much rest in the past month. It's so difficult to practice."
Xu Chunniang smiled softly, "Don't let the elders hear what you said, otherwise it will be said that your Taoist heart is unstable."
Huo Chunyan shrugged, with a rather nonchalant attitude.
"I'm just talking. Besides, I'm right. Cultivation is about knowing what's difficult and doing what's difficult. If I can cultivate to the golden elixir, it will be like smoke rising from my ancestral grave. I can't even think about Nascent Soul or anything like that.
"
Huo Chunyan's words sounded quite spineless. In fact, there are at most two or three foundation-building monks out of a hundred who can cultivate to the golden elixir.
Regardless of the fact that Xiaoyao Sect has nearly a thousand foundation-building monks and ninety golden elixirs, one would think that among the ten foundation-building monks, one golden elixir can be produced. This is not the case at all.
Every few days in the sect, a qi training disciple will successfully build the foundation, providing the sect with a steady stream of new strength.
But it often takes several years, even ten or twenty years, for a Golden Elixir monk to appear.
Besides, the difference in lifespan between Foundation Establishment and Golden Pill is double.
Being able to cultivate a golden elixir is already an extremely good achievement.
After all, the entire Xiaoyao Sect, one of the five major sects in the northwest area of Qianluo Realm, only has two Nascent Soul monks in charge. You can imagine how difficult it is to achieve Nascent Soul.
Xu Chunniang shook her head and drove away the distracting thoughts in her mind.
The golden elixir and Yuanying are still too far away, just take every step you take.
Huo Chunyan hadn't learned how to wield a sword yet, so she went to the post boat to borrow a paper kite and left.
Xu Chunniang accompanied her to the post boat, and suddenly she wanted to try real flying with a sword.
After listening to the two-hour class, her spiritual energy recovered by half, and her consciousness no longer felt as tired as before.
Although she has learned the art of sword control, she has practiced it at high altitudes before and has not officially used it yet.
With a thought, the flying sword appeared in his hand, and then slowly rose into the air.
Xu Chunniang took a deep breath, jumped onto the flying sword, and controlled the flying sword to fly towards the outside of the main peak.
She stepped on the flying sword and walked aimlessly with the sword.
Other than flying higher, the feeling is no different from the previous practice.
It's just that the wind is stronger and the view is wider.
The world is long and leisurely, and you can gallop freely.
When she was riding on a paper crane, she was terrified, fearing that the crane would be damaged for no reason, causing her to fall and die.
But when she was flying with her sword, Xu Chunniang felt calm and composed.
Because she knew that even if she accidentally fell down, she would be able to use her sword control skills again in a short time.
This is the difference between relying on external forces and relying on yourself.
With a thought in her mind, she moved her sword in one direction.
