Early the next morning, Ning Chen arrived at the Xiamen University Library early.
Today is the weekend. Liu Mufei took He Yilong out to play ball. Zhang Hanjie was alone in the dormitory playing games. Finally everything was fine. Ning Chen planned to sort out the Buddhist and Taoist classics carefully today to see if he could improve his own cultivation.
Helpful.
Xiamen University is a famous university in the country. It has been established for nearly a hundred years. It has produced many writers and educators. The collection of books in the university library is also ranked among the top three in the entire Fujian Province. Ning Chen held up his notebook
I turned to the computer and found a remote corner to start my own research.
The first is "Book of Changes" and "Tao Te Ching". These two books can be said to be the general outline of Chinese Taoist classics. Ning Chen really doesn't have the confidence to understand them in a short time. He just wants to briefly sort them out and do it.
I have an idea in mind, and if it really helps, I will study it carefully myself.
So I turned on my computer, searched, and started reading the original texts of these classics.
Who would have thought that after reading this, Ning Chen would be frightened. The "Tao Te Ching" is divided into two parts. The second part of the "Tao Te Ching" is about the philosophy of governing the country, which is not very helpful to him. But the first part of the "Tao Te Ching" is absolutely
It is a sacred book that points directly to the foundation of the great avenue and the origin of cultivation. Even if it is placed in Bilan Continent, it can still establish a sect and serve as a sacred book to suppress religion as the foundation of a holy land.
But for Ning Chen, this "Tao Jing" is too profound. If he were the ancestor of Jindan now, he might be able to directly enter Yuanying Avenue with these basic methods, but now he is only a young monk in the Qi training period.
, what is more needed are some specific methods, but now that the "Tao Jing" has a high level of guidance, even if I have nothing to gain here, I am sure that I can repair and improve the "Xuanxu Jing", at least to cultivate to the realm of condensation.
Putting down the "Tao Te Ching", Ning Chen started to watch "The Book of Changes" again with a feeling of admiration. Ning Chen's understanding of the Book of Changes was actually still under the "Tao Te Ching", but no matter how unfamiliar he was, he knew all kinds of fortune telling, fortune telling, and Feng Shui.
Kanyu and Qimen Bagua all come from this strange book. It sounds more like an encyclopedia reference book, which may be useful to me now.
Half an hour later, Ning Chen's hands were trembling and his eyes were red. The so-called success in practicing qi and cultivating one's character became empty talk. This book of "Book of Changes" is not only useful, it is simply a holy book of cultivation for him.
The sixty-four hexagrams are the sixty-four heavens and earth. The other words and hexagrams are even more profound and mysterious. Every time you read it, you will have new discoveries and insights. It is definitely not something you can understand just by looking at it now.
Thinking of this, Ning Chen suddenly had a creepy feeling. He didn't know what state the ancient Chinese people had reached. Could it be that the legends such as Journey to the West, The List of Gods, and the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou were all true?
But if it is true, with such powerful means, the battle between Huang Di and Chi You alone would be enough to blow up the earth?
And since there is such a powerful book of cultivation, how come all kinds of gods and monsters exist in legends? And I do feel that the spiritual energy of the earth is extremely thin. How can such a powerful book of cultivation exist in this environment? Created before
Where are the people who practice these scriptures? Where are the people who practice these scriptures? You must know the thousand-year golden elixir and the ten-thousand-year Nascent Soul. If you practice to the realm of the Nascent Soul, you will have a life span of ten thousand years without disasters. But now is obviously a technological society.
ah?
Ning Chen fell into self-doubt and self-denial. If he couldn't get over this hurdle, it would be his inner demon. Let alone cultivating to the golden elixir or even Yuanying, he might not even be able to reach the Ning Yuan stage.
"It is said that in Bilan Continent, whenever the Patriarch of the Golden Pill appears, he will stir up thousands of miles of clouds, and his momentum will soar into the sky. As soon as he makes a move, he will split mountains, cut off rivers, and cut off rivers. He is so powerful that he will die or survive. If he were on Earth, the Earth would have been destroyed long ago.
Let’s blow it up.”
"Is it because there is not enough spiritual energy that all kinds of Taoist and magical powers cannot exert their due power?" Ning Chen thought.
"Wait, Spiritual Energy? Not enough Spiritual Energy? Oh my god, it's like this, no, it's too unfair!" Ning Chen looked at the book in his hand dumbfounded, shocked by his own thoughts. If this idea was true,
These amazing and talented ancestors from China are really so unjust.
Why? Because they don’t have enough spiritual energy. They are all theorists of cultivation. They have deduced various theories of cultivation and qi to extremely advanced levels, but they suffer from not having enough spiritual energy to use for cultivation.
So these geniuses are so miserable that they die of frustration!
In fact, today's scientists are the same. Einstein's general theory of relativity was only confirmed after his death, as well as string theory that has not yet been confirmed, etc. They are so similar to their predecessors who deduced the theory of cultivation.
, it’s just that cultivation relies more on spiritual energy, and its current development has almost stagnated.
Ning Chen guessed that the earth used to have more spiritual energy than it does now, so there are many legendary deeds of qi practitioners, such as Peng Zushou's 800th birthday, Laozi's purple energy coming from the east, etc. But now the spiritual energy is getting thinner, so practicing qi
Scholars have basically disappeared, and even if there are still, they are probably hiding in some deep mountains and old forests to survive, with such a slim hope of immortality.
"It's so pitiful." Ning Chen shook his head and said. Fortunately, he has the stone balls in the sea of consciousness, which can continuously replenish spiritual energy, and can also take him to Bilanzhou, which is full of spiritual energy, to practice. Otherwise, with his current energy training,
Level, if you stay on earth to practice, you will really die of suffocation.
But it’s different now. I have a cultivation path that has been deduced by countless geniuses and gods over thousands of years on earth. The depth of my knowledge is probably only comparable to that of several major holy places in Bilan Continent. And for Bilan Continent, the Cangshan area
It's just a small ravine. If I can't make a name for myself there, I'm afraid I, King Wen and the others won't be able to hold it down.
Ning Chen was very excited when he thought of this, "Calm down, calm down, I just finished reading "The Book of Changes", and there are countless Buddhist and Taoist classics."
Thinking of this, Ning Chen started to read the "Diamond Sutra" and "Lotus Sutra" again, and then read "The Seven Lots of Yun Ji" and "Huang Ting Sutra".
"I've made it, I've made it." Ning Chen murmured to himself, as if he had already seen his heroic figure in both Buddhism and Taoism, spanning both worlds.
If there is no basis for Qi training, these classics are indeed mysterious and mysterious. For ordinary people, they just understand some philosophical principles, cultivate their moral character, and improve their spiritual realm.
But in Ning Chen's eyes, they are all sets of mental cultivation methods. Although they do not fall into specific methods, with the theory, is it still far from practice? What's more, the "Zhu Zhu" in "Yunji Seven Lots"
"Jia Qi Dharma Department" lists many Taoist Qi training methods, which are much more profound than the "Xuanxu Jing" that I have practiced. By summarizing them by myself, I can compile a fairly complete cultivation book.
