"It's not far, but it's as difficult as climbing through thousands of ravines and climbing to the sky in nine turns."
Xuan Weizi sat in meditation and sighed in his heart. His divine energy naturally interacted with external objects, his vision suddenly opened up, and everything in the world became clear and clear.
After concentrating for a moment, the wall of the stone chamber seemed to be empty, and the spiritual energy penetrated through it easily.
In fact, the term "penetration" is not accurate, because wood and stone walls are also one of all things. Xuan Weizi now uses his soul to communicate with external objects, peeling off physical obstacles, and all things in the world appear in front of his soul, and he can see them freely.
This is the "eye of heaven".
The so-called "Celestial Eye" in Taoism is actually the ability of the soul to see things without hindrance. It has nothing to do with eyesight, but is somewhat similar to the prophetic magic of this world. It is said that Taoist immortals use the Celestial Eye to observe things, and their thoughts
Together, you can have a far-sighted vision, which not only transcends directions and distances, but can even see the past and the future, and seek good fortune and avoid misfortune when you are in the world. This again involves the power of deduction.
As for the higher level, being able to observe the clouds and breath, detect the changes of cause and effect in the world, understand people's likes and dislikes, and even reverse the general trend of prosperity and decline. This state cannot be achieved by practicing, but must understand the affairs of the world, gain and loss of fame and fortune,
Evolution of species, celestial phenomena, earth culture.
The ancients said it was very mysterious, but it is easy to understand for Xuan Weizi - many profound Taoist methods, including the Sky Eye, require extensive experience and in-depth participation to understand. Legend has it that the ancient Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor fought and cultivated immortality.
Cultivation is not only a process of regulating one's body and mind, but also a process of participating in social governance and institutional changes.
Regard a person as a country, and the internal organs as the king, prime minister, and generals, each with his or her own duties. Regard a country as a person, the king and the people depend on each other, and their lives will last forever.
When the eyes of the sky are opened, the area around the small castle is as seen from the interior. It is not a line of sight in any direction, but a "universal illumination" that is beyond ordinary people's perception and sensory capabilities, and is much more useful than the "global vision" in psychic powers.
"Well...it has both 'Aura Sight' and 'Detection Magic', as well as the effect of 'True Seeing'. It seems that there are also 'Defensive Prediction', 'Combat Prediction' and 'Attack Prediction'? It's better than nothing. Having said that,
Why are they all from the prophecy system?”
Xuan Weizi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The magic power of the Sky Eye has turned into a hodgepodge of prophecy-type psychic powers in this world. He has simply turned himself into a multi-band, multi-wave and all-directional radar base station.
"That's good. With the Sky Eye with a radius of more than a hundred feet, let's see who can sneak attack me?"
Re-consolidate and sort out the foundation of the past.
There are steps in alchemy practice to refine and transform Qi, but the theory of Jingqi has always been mixed with multiple meanings. There is both innate Jingqi and acquired Jingqi. Acquired Jingqi includes water and grain essence, organ essence, respiratory Qi, and meridians.
There are many explanations such as Qi and so on, which are confusing to laypeople and difficult to grasp.
But one thing is that the practice of alchemy is nothing more than countering the acquired to approach the innate. At the same time, it is recognized that acquired things originate from the innate. If you practice and hold the Tao, the acquired things can complement the innate.
Refining Qi means condensing the acquired essence to combine, nourish and supplement the innate essence.
Drawing on the theory of the four qi of the human body by medical practitioners, except for the fact that Yuan Qi generally originates from the innate body and is similar to the Yuan Qi of the Dan family and serves as the source of human physiological functions, the other Zong Qi, Ying Qi and Wei Qi are all acquired Qi.
Zong Qi is responsible for maintaining balance, promoting blood circulation and aiding breathing. It is composed of the breath of breath and the essence of water and grain, forming the energy material for human body activities. It is the foundation of acquired nature. It combines with Yuan Qi to promote the operation rules of human body functions.
, spread the body.
Then it is divided into Ying Qi and Wei Qi. Ying Qi flows in the meridians and is responsible for transporting energy substances to the whole body, entering the internal organs and outward to the limbs, circulating continuously. Wei Qi flows outside the pulses and resists wind externally.
Xie, it can absorb warmth and nourish internally, which can not only protect the functions of the internal organs, but also moisturize the skin surface.
Alchemy practice has in-depth research on the internal organs, and has never stopped exploring the functions and substances of the human body. It pursues the improvement and improvement of the self-regulatory function of life, and requires the transportation of energy and substances in the body to approach the innate and natural state.
However, there seem to be subtle differences in the innate natural state of different worlds. Moreover, Xuan Weizi has not yet reached the state of being reborn. The innate natural state of the physical furnace is still unable to break through the limiting qualities of the human race. There is no alchemy.
Once you succeed in practice, your attributes will immediately increase.
However, with the blending of the four qi, Xuan Weizi's physique and toughness have indeed improved slightly, and his resistance to diseases and toxins has also increased. At the same time, the "Spiritual Root Jade Liquid" is no longer limited to the healing ability of self-restoration, and seems to have
Comes with the effect of "restoration".
"Restoration Technique" is not aimed at the treatment and recovery of wounds, but the recovery of the human body's basic qualities and attributes after they have been damaged or abnormally impaired by external forces.
You must know that the necromancy spells in this world have a lot of damage to the basic qualities of the human body. If the spell resistance is not enough, even if you rely on Fortitude or Will to save, you will still take half of the damage and negative effects. It is very difficult to deal with. But
Some mages particularly like to use necromancy spells as a powerful means of killing, and the "restoration spell" plays an important role at this time.
However, the effect of Xuan Weizi's "restoration technique" seems to be different from the "restoration technique" of psychic powers. Alchemy practice pursues the innate natural state of the human body, and the restoration effect of "Spiritual Root Jade Liquid" is a fusion zone of the four qi.
To strengthen the self-regulation function, it is based on the results of "abnormal changes" in the body and mind. Even without deliberately exerting it, the recovery effect always exists, and it is still a special function that cannot be suppressed and released.
"The priests of the Holy Lord Church also seem to have the 'Restoration Technique', but I don't know what the difference is between the psychic restoration technique and my 'Spiritual Root Jade Liquid'?" Xuan Weizi touched his body, as if there was a vague "
He has the supernatural ability to "restore limbs" and can regenerate severed limbs.
"Come on, it's either the prophecy system or the self-shaping system. Either the perception is strong, or the constitution is high, the toughness and the will save have increased sharply, but there is no attack method of the transformation system. If the game adds points, why should all the points be added to saving lives?
Already? I'm not a human shield, and I haven't even strengthened the control system that a psion should be good at." Xuan Weizi laughed at himself.
To put it bluntly, as far as the principles of alchemy practice are concerned, Xuan Weizi’s practice is not wrong. After all, all immortal Taoist methods pursue the beauty of form and spirit and longevity. Moreover, the current physical and mental conditions are different from those of the soul.
There is no conflict in terms of performance. It's just that more emphasis is placed on the development of self-shaping and prophecy abilities, and the offensive and lethality capabilities are slightly lacking.
After all, there are not many cultivators who spend all day fighting and killing. If you have that free time, you might as well practice in a cave. People like Xuan Weizi were already very capable of causing trouble in their previous lives, and they really died at his hands.
There are actually not many people there.
"But in this world, if you don't know how to fight and kill, you might be killed by others." Xuan Weizi slowly raised his hand, and a translucent eight-sided Han sword appeared out of thin air in his hand.
It exudes a thin and sharp purple-green light. If you listen carefully, there is a faint sound of wind and thunder inside.
This is not a creative psychic power, but a psychic energy sword made purely from spiritual power - the mind blade.
According to the Astral Psychics, they have only roughly developed the skill of Mind Blade and have not studied it in depth. Since the skill of Mind Blade requires almost all psychic power to be shaped and maintained, it requires giving up one's own psychic abilities.
Only in this way can you obtain this kind of mind blade.
However, there is no such difficulty for Xuan Weizi, and it actually confirms some of his ideas.
In the early days of the formation of alchemy, there was also a cultivation method of elixir and sword. This is actually the origin of the sword immortal method. The sword elephant is used to represent the golden elixir. If the elixir is achieved, the sword will be completed. If the sword is completed, it will fly into space, and the sword will rise out of the sky.
.It also incorporates some of the skills of using swords and soldiers to solve it, which can be regarded as a very simple training method.
However, the Sword Immortal Technique was not widely passed down in the future. Although the Sword Immortal and Sword Cultivators were always praised as extremely magical in secular novels, in actual practice, the internal refining was not as smooth as the alchemy, and the external application was not as comprehensive as the thunder method.
On the other hand, there are some side sects in Shu who praise the magic of swordsmanship all day long to transcend the ordinary and become saints. In the end, they only need to summon the energy of metals and breathe out flying swords. They do it here and there, but in the end it is just a small skill that is difficult to approach the great road.
If we really want to talk about the authentic swordsmanship, we have to look at the master of alchemy, Lu Zu Chunyang. Of course, this is mainly because Xuan Weizi practices the alchemy taught by Lu Zu.
Legend has it that Lu Zu was taught a sword by Master Huo Long. It is difficult for future generations to tell whether it is true or false. However, from the perspective of Xuan Weizi, a postgraduate student of Taoism, it is not so much a gift of the real flying sword magic weapon, but rather a teaching of the alchemy sword.
Wonderful method.
The swordsmanship passed down by Lu Zu is a wisdom sword that can "subdue demons", "quench evil spirits" and "break illusions". Like alchemy, it still attaches great importance to inner adjustment and practice. However, it is said that Lu Zu uses the sword to move.
Thunder follows, while stillness brings nectar to moisten things. This is somewhat similar to the thunder method.
Even in the secret tradition known to Xuan Weizi, Lu Zu's sword technique can refine the ghosts of the underworld with water and fire, cut off the three flowers and five qi from the monks in the world, and banish the immortals and Buddhas to their throne. After all, Xuan Weizi still has a bit of a sectarian outlook.
Yes, it’s natural for the Patriarch to be so powerful, and it’s only natural that I can do it myself, otherwise I would be sorry for the Patriarch.
According to the theory of the interlinkage between Dan and Swords, Xuan Weizi used Shen Xingqi to condense this thought blade, and it also has the enchantment effect of electric shock damage, which is equivalent to a second-level demonized weapon.
"It's a pity that it's not a real flying sword yet." Xuan Weizi held the mind blade and waved it around at will. The purple light was flowing erratically in the dark stone room, which was really beautiful.
There is no need to release the mind blade, Xuan Weizi already knows that it cannot be maintained after being released, and will disperse into a ball of lightning.
Concentrating, the purple-green light on the surface of the mind blade turned into red flames, and the heat of the molten gold and iron flowed up and down the sword, but it did not damage Xuan Weizi's hand holding the sword at all.
The luck is strong again, the flames dissipate, the frost is dense, and the whole body is covered with ice cracks, like a handicraft that is free of dust. The frost damage reveals a bone-chilling cold mist along the sword's edge.
Then he stacked his fingers and struck the cylindrical sword. There was no fire or frost, and the sword was transparent and colorless. However, after he struck it with his fingers, there was a sound of the sword that echoed endlessly in the stone chamber. It was a sonic effect.
"This mind blade can convert fire, frost, lightning, and sonic energy attacks at will like the transformation psychic energy. In addition, it is made of a collection of psychic energy, has its own force field damage, and can also attack incorporeal creatures.
, it can be said that it has great versatility. The only drawback is that it cannot be used as a real flying sword and cannot be released to attack."
Xuan Weizi looked at the mind blade in his hand, and he became very whimsical. After putting away the mind blade, he raised his hand and three things flew out of his sleeves - Hengzhizi, the activated crow, and the astral clone.
Hengzhi looked up and down. It didn't seem to like the cramped environment of the stone room, and was jumping around in anger. The animated crow turned its neck stupidly, and the astral clone that was exactly like him stood expressionless.
Do not move.
These three are exactly elemental bodies, activated derivatives, and constructs, and their life characteristics are also from high to low, and their operating modes are different.
Hengyizi is an elemental life summoned by Xuanweizi by combining soul magic and shallow thunder magic. It has low-level intelligence, and its relationship with Xuanweizi is similar to that of a master and servant. Hengyizi does not directly come from a specific elemental position.
He was summoned from the front, so he had to rely on Xuan Weizi’s divine energy to survive.
The activated crow is made up of Xuan particles condensed with essence, blood and astral body. It is a "tool" that extends outside the body. When it is not in use, it is like a silent machine, but it can receive external information, and then it is controlled by Xuan particles.
Micron active extraction.
The astral body clone is completely shaped by the astral body of the Xuanwei Zi, and every move it makes requires the Xuanwei Zi's distracted control. Although the astral body is connected to the Xuanwei Zi's divine energy, it can make the clone move flexibly, but the distraction cannot control this.
A little bit is always a flaw. If Xuan Weizi wants to concentrate on fighting, it will be impossible to control the astral clone.
If you really want to fight with each other, there is no one-on-one fair competition. If there are more people and fewer people, who wants to take risks and win with less? In ancient times, the victory of less with more on the battlefield was all about concentrating troops to attack the weak enemy.
This results in a local situation where more is used to defeat less.
Xuan Weizi came up with these three things one after another. In fact, he hoped to find a kind of magic servant that is closely connected with himself and will not backlash. It is similar to a mage's familiar, but has an independent energy and material circulation function and does not require frequent spellcasters.
Charge.
At present, each of the three is one of them. If they can be combined, compared with the current limited basic physical quality, the power of this magical servant is far beyond that of ordinary people. If the function of the mind blade weapon is given to it, and it can create a huge...
Weapons such as sticks, spears, and heavy halberds, aren't they equivalent to the divine generals who protect the law and the fourth level of merit?
But Xuan Weizi also discovered that once the size of this kind of magic servant increases, the energy consumption also increases exponentially. It is easy to make an activated crow that can feed itself, because this thing does not require fighting, and one must be able to serve as a human shield and
Warriors are responsible for protecting Xuan Weizi, and are magical servants who absorb huge amounts of energy to maintain their existence...
"It's not impossible." Xuan Weizi took out a glass bead, and a star map could be seen swirling inside. This was the part of his soul structure that he had removed from his body during his previous practice, the "Crown of Stars", and then stored it in a starlight cocoon.
"Star Crown" is the product of Xuan Weizi's attempt to contact the arcane star map. It is of little use to Xuan Weizi himself now. He still chooses to focus on the combination of alchemy and psychic powers.
But the arcane star map itself is equivalent to a powerful and vast energy source, and the "Crown of Stars" is like a port. If it is transplanted to a magic servant, can the problem of energy consumption be solved?
