Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 8: Lesson 1, Chapter 1
After finally finishing the class, Wei Tianchong was drowsy when he saw that Tang Jie had pulled him and walked quickly outside the hospital.
Wei Tianchong was curious and wanted to ask, but Tang Jie made a shushing gesture to tell him to stop talking. He had learned a lot by this time and did not dare to ask more questions. He and Shi Meng followed Tang Jie to the Outside the hospital, just after walking a few steps, Tang Jie pulled him hard and shouted: "Run!"
"Run? What are you running for?"
"Let's eat!" Tang Jie shouted, and the person rushed out like lightning.
Eat!
Both Shi Meng and Wei Tian Chong woke up from a dream and ran away.
Seeing the three masters and servants running wildly, the other students were stunned for a moment, then woke up and said, "Eat!"
With a crash, all the students rushed towards Qianweixuan at the same time. They rushed to Qianweixuan like thousands of troops. Wei Tianchong and other three people were seen at the forefront, panting and taking the food from the window. The food is indeed some of the best spiritual dishes, with delicious color and excellent taste.
“Finally I can have a good meal!” Wei Tianchong sighed as he held the food in his hands and sat down to eat.
Tang Jie smiled, but just sat quietly without eating.
"Why don't you eat yet?" Wei Tianchong asked.
Tang Jie chuckled: "You'll know later."
In just a moment, Qianwei Garden was already crowded with people, and all the students lined up in a long queue.
Tang Jie held up the sign again: "Selling spiritual food, a full set of thirty-five spiritual coins."
"You also sell lunch?" Wei Tianchong's eyes nearly popped out.
No wonder he doesn't eat.
Tang Jie replied: "Why not sell it? We haven't officially learned the magic of immortality yet. Eating good food is just to strengthen the body. It's too much waste. I couldn't absorb all the aura brought by the spirit wine yesterday. It’s such a pity, it’s better to sell it, my price is much cheaper than Qianweixuan.”
"...You are cruel!" Wei Tianchong was speechless.
Looking at Shi Meng again, he was so shocked that the food in his mouth fell off.
He has already eaten this portion and has nowhere to sell it.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier!!!" Shi Meng was heartbroken.
Tang Jie replied slowly: "Then someone will try to steal business from me. It's not easy to find a big boss these days."
Even Wei Tianchong had clear soup for dinner yesterday, and a rich young man would not dare to show off his wealth in this place. Thirty-five spiritual coins, in modern times, the official price is 35,000, and the black market price is more than 100,000!
No matter how rich the young man is, he would not dare to eat like this every day, so for Tang Jie, the less competition, the better.
Shi Meng said: "How could I do that?"
Tang Jie sneered: "It's as if you were sitting and listening to lectures this morning."
"..."
After a while, someone finally couldn't stand the "pig food" and ran to Tang Jie to buy the spiritual food. Of course, Tang Jie didn't forget to take the other person's original portion of "pig food" and ate it to the fullest. fragrant.
In the blink of an eye, Tang Jie had already earned forty pieces of spiritual money. His monthly salary at this college is only ten taels, but now he has earned the entire year's income in one morning.
——————————————
The afternoon is the time for teaching.
The Dharma is not taught in Moxiangyuan, but in front of the Lecture Stone at Chaoyang Peak, another peak of Qingyun Mountain. The students must climb all the way over the mountains and ridges.
There is no doubt that this is a torturous thing. Wei Tianchong has never suffered like this before. He only walked halfway and couldn't walk anymore. He sat on the ground and cried: "I won't leave, I want to go back." Home!"
"If you don't want to go, you have to go. This is a Dharma teaching class. If you fail to teach the Dharma, this college will be in vain." Tang Jie dragged him forward.
"I won't leave!" Wei Tianchong shouted.
"If you don't leave, I'll whip you with a whip!" Tang Jie shouted. Since he left the Wei Mansion until now, he has never threatened Wei Tianchong with family methods. Although his wife gave him the Shang Fang Sword, he was not allowed to use it casually, so Tang Jie was reluctant to sacrifice this "magic weapon" easily, but now that it was about spreading the law, he had to threaten him.
Wei Tianchong shivered, knowing that this guy meant what he said, so he shivered and could only stand up and continue walking, shouting as he walked: "I want to tell my mother, you let me eat all What a pain!"
Tang Jie sneered: "Sue it, sue it, I guarantee my wife will never pay attention to you."
"Nonsense, my mother loves me the most!"
"My wife loves the young master. If my wife is here and sees you suffering and suffering, it will definitely be unacceptable. But she is not here. Master, no matter how much you tell her that you are suffering, as long as you know that it is good for you, She won’t feel bad."
"How is this possible?" Wei Tianchong was stunned.
"Nothing is impossible." Tang Jie said with a smile: "Be ruthless when you can't see it. Parents all over the world are like this."
Wei Tianchong opened his mouth and couldn't say anything. Thinking about it again, Tang Jie's words made sense. His mother had just told him to go to school this time and wanted him to practice hard and be prepared to endure hardship. Could it be that Are you saying that you really don't care about yourself anymore?
When he thought of this, he was so frightened that he burst into tears: "Why is my life so miserable!"
Tang Jie looked angry and grabbed him and said: "Life is bitter? Young Master, I call life bitter. I can't stop you even if I try to stop you. It's only your first day. After five points, I still want you to become a top ten disciple. If you don’t give up your life at this rate, I’ll be thankful to God!”
When he thought about how unlucky he was, while others were trying to improve themselves, but he still had to help such a thing into the heart of heaven, Tang Jie felt extremely overwhelmed.
Why did I make such a wish in my brain in the first place?
Wei Tianchong also felt very embarrassed when Tang Jie said this. He gritted his teeth all the way and finally reached Chaoyang Peak.
I thought I was already late, and I was afraid that I would have to stand and listen to the lecture again. Unexpectedly, when I arrived at the place, I saw that futons had been spread out in front of the lecture stone. This time, everyone could sit down.
Tang Jie pulled Wei Tianchong down, and the three of them found a place to sit down together. Not long after, subsequent students arrived one after another, and no one was turned away from the peak.
Wei Tianchong was very curious and asked Tang Jie: "Why didn't you drive away all the latecomers this time? And everyone has a seat?"
After thinking about it, Tang Jie replied: "What happened yesterday and in the morning should be to teach everyone some lessons and let everyone restrain their past tempers, and it will not have a big impact to skip one or two classes in arts and sciences. But lectures on scriptures Teaching is a major event and is the foundation of Xiyue Academy. If you are really late, you will not be allowed in. The missed lesson may affect your life. After all, it will not be such a trivial matter."
"That's it!" Wei Tianchong suddenly realized, and then his face became bitter again: "If I had known, I wouldn't have been so desperate just now."
"Look at your potential!" Tang Jie was speechless.
Not long after, an old man with white eyebrows appeared on the lecture stone.
The old man was sitting slightly with his eyes closed, looking miserable. Seeing him appear, the students had already lowered their voices and said, "This is Master Ku."
I have also heard of this bitter master Tang Jie. He is a famous senior of Xiyue Academy. He has educated countless people, but he is quite respected by the world.
The most important thing is that this Mr. Ku has a very good character and has received many praises. He probably won’t do anything to deceive his disciples.
Sure enough, when Master Ku arrived, he didn’t waste any time and said directly:
"The heaven and earth have spiritual energy, and magical powers fill the universe. What cultivators cultivate is nothing more than the spirit of heaven and earth. They use their body to absorb the spirit, use their soul to fuse the spirit, use the scriptures to move the spirit, and use the Dharma to use the spirit. Therefore, those who cultivate the spirit will return to the world. Its foundation is to cultivate the body, soul, Dharma, and Sutra. Among them, the body is the foundation, and the magic is the expression, which is internal and external..."
Following the eloquent talk of this master of suffering, grand pictures of cultivators mastering the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and flowing elegantly appeared among the students.
The climb of a cultivator on the Immortal Road is to put it bluntly, the improvement of the ability to use spiritual energy. Even after entering the Immortal Platform, the spiritual energy turned into immortal energy is just a higher quality of energy.
Qi is like a stepping stone. No matter how you climb on the immortal road, you may jump, jump, laugh, cry or shout. In the end, it cannot be separated from the mountain stone road as the foundation.
However, there are thousands of roads, with thousands of twists and turns, and how to get there is different.
The use of spiritual energy by cultivators is essentially the same as Xu Muyang’s formations. They are both arranged and combined to exert the effect of spiritual energy. Whether it is formations or spells, they are all done through Give operating instructions to the spiritual energy to achieve specified requirements, thereby forming different immortal methods.
For this reason, all spells have a basic limitation, that is, they must be something that the aura itself can do.
If it is an effect that spiritual energy can never achieve, then there must be no such magic, unless you can master the Dao and transcend the limitations of detachment.
"Aura is a tangible thing. Because it is spiritual, it can receive instructions and can transform all things. It has endless wonderful uses, but it has its limits. It cannot penetrate the netherworld and affect the future. It is difficult to use the intangible, so it enters in form. Invisibility, breaking the limitations of Qi, is the ultimate concept of a cultivator, and its name is Tao..."
The meaning of this passage is that because spiritual energy is tangible, it cannot act on illusory things. Therefore, magical methods such as insight into the future and observation of heavenly secrets do not exist in this world.
Therefore, there are no so-called astrologers or destiny masters in the universe of Star Luo. Even if there are, they are all pretentious and deceptive. There is no magic that can tell a thousand miles away with a pinch of fingers - you can know a thousand miles away with a pinch of fingers. no!
Only after mastering the Great Dao can one truly transform the tangible into the intangible, break through the limitations of the tangible spirit, and possess even more incredible abilities.
Therefore, those who cultivate immortality are also called Taoists. The journey of the Tao is the end of immortality. However, the journey of the Tao is too elusive and difficult to capture and understand due to its intangibility. The only way is to move forward on the tangible road first. Seize the opportunity to get a glimpse of Taoism.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. For any Taoist, if you want to capture the invisible, you must first capture the tangible. This is where spiritual cultivation begins.
The sixteen words of "receiving the spirit with the body, merging the soul with the soul, moving the spirit with the scriptures, and using the spirit with the Dharma" are the summary of the practitioners' practice, and "receiving the spirit with the body" is the beginning of this, opening up spiritual eyes. This is the first step to receive the spirit.
"The human body is one heaven and one earth, and the five elements are complete and all-encompassing. Qi moves through hundreds of meridians and creates all kinds of magic. However, there are no limits to heaven and earth, and there are limits to human power. The body and spirit should correspond to the five elements..."
This passage says that the human body is a world of its own, in which Yin, Yang and the Five Elements are all contained, corresponding to heaven and earth. Therefore, when spiritual energy circulates in the body, through the decrees of this small world, it can correspond to the actions of the big world. Thousands of spells.
However, the human body has its limits and cannot truly accommodate the world. Therefore, we must choose our own path and not act blindly.
Next, the Ku Taoist began to explain the method of opening spiritual eyes.
People often say that the spiritual eye is the place where spiritual energy is stored. This is actually not a correct statement. To be precise, it can only be stored and used through it.
A person who has not yet opened his spiritual eyes is like a writing brush. To use spiritual energy, he must constantly absorb and reuse it, just like a writing brush that is constantly dipped in ink to write, as was the case with Tang Jie.
A person who has opened his spiritual eyes is like a pen, he can write without interruption.
Therefore, the spiritual eye is not the pen core responsible for storing water, but the small hole on the pen tip. Only through this hole can the spiritual energy in the pen core flow out in a controlled manner. It is also through this hole that the spiritual energy in the pen core can be controlled. The ink is absorbed again.
The distribution of the five elements of the human body has its own characteristics. The position of the spiritual eye opened is different, and the effect is completely different. For this reason, starting from the spiritual eye, practitioners must make careful choices.
The Xiyue Sect focuses on the Hand Shaoyin Heart Meridian and the Foot Shaoyin Kidney Meridian, so most of the heart methods are concentrated on these two meridians, and spiritual eyes are often opened between these two meridians.
Among them, the Yin Heart Meridian on the palm of the hand originates from the heart and comes out of the heart system. Its acupoints include Jiquan, Qingling, Shaohai, Lingdao, Tongli, Yin gap, Shenmen, Shaofu, etc.
The Kidney Meridian of Foot Shaoyin starts from the little finger, runs through the center of the foot, and unblocks collaterals throughout the body. The first step of the Zangxiang Meridian starts from the Qi points, which is the Kidney Meridian of Foot Shaoyin. There are gushing springs, deep valleys, pylorus, divine seals, etc. in its acupoints.
For this reason, spiritual eyes can be opened in various parts, depending on the needs.
For example, if a spring is located on the sole of the foot, it originates from the kidneys and belongs to water, its location in the foot is beneficial to the earth, and its Qi is warm and nourishing. That is, if the spring is used as the foundation of the spiritual eye, then the mind method can be cultivated. It is the most suitable mind method for the water attribute, but it also has an affinity for the earth attribute in terms of performance. At the same time, the kidney meridian has a strong warming and nourishing ability, and it is easier to improve the state, so it is suitable to practice exercises that are mainly based on water and supplemented by earth. , while the realm is easy to rise, but the combat power is not strong, it is more suitable for students who seek immortality.
But if you are a militant, you may still practice fire-attribute skills, which will have the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort.
In addition to the location of the spiritual eye, there are also spiritual eye cultivation methods. Different methods act on the same spiritual eye and have different effects.
For this reason, you need to determine your future route before opening your spiritual eyes.
Why must practitioners have great aspirations?
Because only by determining your ambition can you know what path to take in the future and avoid being confused.
Starting from the basics, cultivators must be firm in their true intentions and know the path they will take in the future. Only in this way can they avoid detours, and once some detours are taken, there is no turning back.
At this moment, the Taoist monk talked about the functions and properties of the various meridians and acupuncture points of the human body. The students were so excited and eye-opened that they realized that Xiyue Academy was well-deserved and had been used by various people before. The pain of oppression is also greatly reduced.
When the ascetic monk finished teaching the Dharma, everyone realized that the sun was setting.
At this time, the Taoist Taoist waved the dust in his hand and said loudly: "Today's class is over. All students can get a book of Dharma in front of the lecture stone and open their eyes according to the Dharma. Tomorrow will start the Q&A class. I will be here every day to answer students' questions. If you have no questions, you don't have to come and just practice on your own. Remember, the methods you practice cannot be taught to anyone without permission. Anyone who communicates secret methods in private will be severely punished."
Then I saw thousands of books appearing in front of the lecture stone.
This book does not really exist, it only appears on the stone wall, each with its own name and annotations, indicating where the practice can open spiritual eyes, what its functions and characteristics are, and related taboos, etc.
Obviously, it is up to everyone to decide their own final path.
"After choosing the path to immortality, there is no turning back. Please choose carefully." After saying this, the Taoist monk disappeared without a trace.
The students gathered in front of the sutra stone and saw the countless sutra stones floating by. They were dazzled for a moment and didn't know how to choose.
Wei Tianchong looked at Tang Jie: "What do you think I should choose?"
Unknowingly ~IndoMTL.com~ he already attached great importance to Tang Jie's opinions.
Tang Jie replied: "Everyone has his own path, and ultimately it is his own choice. If you want to ask me, I can only answer, first think clearly, why do you want to become an immortal!"
Wei Tianchong was stunned, he thought seriously for a while, and then murmured: "Actually, I only cultivated immortality to satisfy my mother's wishes and the expectations of my family. As for myself... I really haven't thought about it. ”
Countless books were flying around the lecture stone in front of him, but a glimmer of confusion flashed in Wei Tianchong's eyes.
Tang Jie smiled: "Then think about it again. As long as you are a human being, you will always have pursuits, and the path you choose is the path closest to your pursuit of your dreams."
"What about you? What do you choose?" Shi Meng couldn't help but ask.
"Me?" Tang Jie smiled and pointed at a scripture in front of him: "I will choose it!"
The two of them looked at each other at the same time, and saw that under Tang Jie's pointing, the scripture had turned into a ray of golden light and flew into Tang Jie's hand, and then disappeared without a trace. However, its content automatically appeared in Tang Jie's mind, but there was no physical object. , but an identical scripture book appeared on the scripture stone.
"Shaohai Cave Golden Secret!" The two of them shouted at the same time.
Shaoyin is the most important of all scriptures, and Shaohai is the root of Shaoyin, and is the first spiritual eye of the Xiyue Sect.
It originates from the heart and belongs to water. It merges with each other and embraces all rivers;
It is located at the elbow to facilitate Qi, force Qi, and cast spells quickly;
His method is concise and pure, good at attacking difficulties and invincible;
Benefit and gather energy!
Fast attack!
Breaking armor!

PS: I discovered that there was a clerical error. When I wrote the Tang Jie Lian Zang Xiang Sutra, I wrote the Qi points as the Hand Shaoyin Heart Meridian. This was a mistake. The first formula of the Zang Xiang Sutra is the Foot Shaoyin Kidney Meridian. Start from the soles of the feet and spread throughout the body.
