Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 9: Pulse cleaning
In the room, Xu Muyang continued to tell Tang Jie about the world of immortality.
"Cultivation is divided into five realms, and each realm is divided into three levels. Only the Immortal Stage realm has only two levels, so it is called the Five Realms and Fourteenth Level. Among them, the Lingtai realm is divided into three realms: Lingquan, Linghu, and Linghai, which mainly refers to It is the amount of spiritual energy accumulated in the body. Immortal cultivators cultivate spiritual energy, so this first stage focuses on the absorption and use of spiritual energy. The Lingtai stage is to improve the physique and increase the amount of spiritual energy by breathing in spiritual energy, so the Lingtai stage It is also often called the breath-in period or the Qi-training period."
"The immortal cultivators at this time are still mortals physically and have not yet reached the stage of true rebirth. They can learn spells, but they can only use them by consuming the spiritual energy in their own bodies, and their power is limited. Therefore, the immortal cultivators at this stage generally Also known as spirit disciples, the spells they use are generally called spells and not methods. Only after entering the transcendent realm and using the spiritual energy in the body to induce the spiritual energy of heaven and earth can they use real spells. At this time, they are called spiritual disciples. For the Dharma. This period is also the stage when the cultivator truly transforms from the mortal body into the spiritual body, so it is called the realm of transcendence. Because building the spiritual body and getting rid of the mortal body are the foundation for cultivating immortals, there is often a foundation-building period or a spiritual body period. What he said. Do you understand?"
"What Brother Xu said is simple and clear, I have understood it clearly. To put it simply, realm is a qualitative improvement, and level is a quantitative improvement, right?" Tang Jie answered.
Xu Muyang nodded with a smile: "This statement is fresh and interesting, and it also makes some sense. Although it doesn't hit the mark, it's not far off."
Although the realm is the same, different cultivation methods bring different effects.
According to Xu Muyang, the human body has many components such as meridians, qi and blood, muscles and bones, and five internal organs. Each component has its own unique use and meaning. Different cultivation methods and processes will bring different effects to the practitioners. Changes make their strengths different. Even the simplest basic spells such as wind sword, frost sword, fire ball, and electric chain have different performances and powers in the hands of practitioners with different cultivation methods.
Experienced people can often roughly judge the other person's major direction and background just by looking at their hands.
Furthermore, not every method is compatible. The key is whether there is any conflict between them. For example, the Tianhuo Zhenjing focuses on the Shaoyang triple burner meridian of the hand. Its energy disperses in the heart and returns to the liver and gallbladder. The liver belongs to wood and governs sublimation. The heart belongs to fire and governs gods. Therefore, the fire energy is strong. After successful practice, it will have the power of starting a prairie fire. . However, the Ningshui Zhenjing mainly cultivates the Kidney Meridian of Foot Shaoyin. It originates from the spleen and returns to the kidney. The spleen belongs to earth and is responsible for transportation and transformation. The kidney belongs to water and is responsible for storing essence. After successful practice, you will be able to embrace all rivers.
But the two are not subordinate to each other and are independent of each other.
These are only independent of each other, and even more contradictory. If you don't understand the reason and practice together, you will get twice the result with twice the result.
Therefore, the practice of Kung Fu is not that the more the better, but that it should return to its origin and complement each other.
"This is another reason why I don't want to teach you the Xu family's inheritance." Xu Muyang said: "The Xu family's Dongxu Meridian is mainly about the hand-taiyang small intestine meridian, focusing on the eye meridians to break the void. , Cave Fantasy is the main focus, Xiyue Sect majors in Shou Shaoyin Heart Meridian, which is the center of gravity. Both sides are not subordinate to each other, but the heart is the master of the five internal organs and the official of the king. From a basic point of view, it is better to start with the Purple Heart Sutra of Xiyue Sect. For the Jade Heart Method, Shenxiao Sword Code is the best base."
"That is to say, if you practice the Xiyue Sect's Purple Jade Heart Technique and the Shenxiao Sword Code, you may not be able to practice the Xu family's Dongxu Sutra. However, if you practice the Dongxu Sutra, you may not be able to practice the Purple Jade Heart Technique well. Is that what you mean?" Tang Jie asked.
"Yes, that's what it means. The Xiyue Sect is a great sect with a vast mind and strong tolerance. With this as a foundation, you will have no problem learning anything in the future and your future will be bright."
"Understood, this is like using the sea to contain a lake, which can accommodate hundreds of rivers, and using a lake to contain the sea, and the vast ocean can wreak havoc."
"Yes, that's what happened." Xu Muyang smiled.
Tang Jie is a kid with a smart mind and knows everything at a glance. He is also very happy for such a student. Although he did not accept Tang Jie as his disciple, he actually treated him as one.
"So, if I continue to practice the Hidden Image Sutra, won't it be useless?" Tang Jie asked again.
"The Hidden Elephant Sutra is only a method of opening doors and cleansing the meridians. It does not focus on any one channel, so there will be no problems in practice. And no matter what, this Hidden Elephant Sutra is also a method created by the Master of War. , I always feel that it is not that simple. If you keep practicing hard, you may have other gains in the future. I have strong muscles and veins, so this pulse cleaning is of no use to me." Speaking of this, Xu Muyang shook his head and sighed. A sound.
The so-called pulse cleaning is actually the tempering and expansion of the meridians.
After the Jade Gate is opened, qi moves through the meridians. Different ways of moving qi are different exercises. Cleansing the meridians actually expands the meridians, allowing more spiritual energy to flow through, and also making the meridians more bearable.
If the human body is compared to a country, then the meridians are roads and each acupuncture point is a station. The wider the road, the more developed the traffic will be, and the more spiritual energy that can be transported, and the more powerful it will be.
There is an old Chinese saying that if you want to get rich, build roads first.
There is an old saying in the world of cultivating immortals, which is that if you want to cultivate immortality, you must first cleanse your pulse.
In addition to cleansing the veins, the novice cultivator must also open the spiritual eye, which is the place where spiritual energy is stored. Only by opening the spiritual eye can the absorbed spiritual energy be stored and expanded to form basic energy that can be used for spells.
However, different cultivation techniques open up the spiritual eye in different ways, and even the positions will be different. For this reason, Xu Muyang did not teach Tang Jie how to open up the spiritual eye - he will undergo baptism in the future There are better techniques to learn from the Yue sect than from the Xu family.
So cleansing the pulse is to lay the foundation, but if one day without opening the spiritual eyes, Tang Jie cannot be considered as a formal apprentice of cultivating immortals.
"That means I have to wait until I enter Xiyue Academy before I can start formal training?"
"What? Are you anxious?" Xu Muyang asked with a smile.
Tang Jie blushed, but did not quibble: "It's just a temporary desire."
"I can understand your mood." Xu Muyang said with a smile: "But cultivation is not accomplished overnight. Only by laying a good foundation can cultivation be more effective with half the effort. In fact, for children of your age, the muscles and bones have not yet grown. Washing the pulse It's the most suitable time. Unfortunately, young people have a lot of minds. Many people can't bear the yearning for magical powers, and there are always people who want to be happy for a while... How many talented people have passed the difficult and painful door rush just because of this reason? After the first test, I failed in this simple pulse cleansing, which resulted in limited results in the future."
What he said was so serious that Tang Jie felt awe-struck, knowing that this was Xu Muyang's advice to him.
At this moment, he solemnly said: "I understand. No matter where we are or what we do, patience is the key to our success."
"Well said!" Xu Muyang clapped his hands: "You don't have to worry. The expansion of meridians has its own limits, and meridians cleansing can usually be completed in a year and a half, and then you can officially practice. By then, I will introduce you to Xiyue Sect. With my reputation as a great formation master, there should be no problem."
He did not say that he relied on the face of Master Tianxin, but only the face of the Grand Formation Master, which shows how confident he is in his own formation.
From this day on, Tang Jie began to practice the Zangxiang Sutra every day and cleanse his meridians.
Although he is young, his soul is that of an adult. He has long passed the stage where teenagers lose their temper and do not know how to control themselves. Therefore, after being anxious once, he will not repeat his mistakes again. His stability makes Xu Muyang also Be surprised.
"It's obvious that he has deceitful thoughts, but he is still young and mature. It's really hard to see through." Regarding Tang Jie, Xu Muyang had to admit that maybe he was not the best in terms of cultivation qualifications, but in dealing with people But I can no longer treat the other party as a child.
Although he was busy practicing, Tang Jie did not neglect to take care of Xu Muyang. I still clean the yard seriously every day, and go out to work during the day to earn some money for the family.
Xu Muyang still spends most of his time in the house recuperating from his injuries. However, as time goes by, his injuries are getting better and better, and he can now walk around at any time. Occasionally, he will throw a set of punches and move around when he feels like it. Give your tired muscles a break.
Today he had nothing to do. He was wandering in the yard admiring the scenery. Suddenly he discovered that the rockery, pavilions, stone tables and surrounding flowers and plants in this small courtyard were inadvertently consistent with some principles of heaven and earth. He just felt that if With some slight changes, maybe it can be arranged into a formation and start studying immediately.
He is naturally fond of formations, and in order to study formations, he doesn't even need to be the head of the Xu family.
Some time ago, he concentrated on recuperating and had no time to study~IndoMTL.com~ Now that his injury is recovering, he naturally has the time to do the things he loves.
At this moment, under his command, formation patterns flew out from under his feet, connecting to the rockeries, pavilions and other objects in the courtyard, flashing with brilliant light. In just a moment, a small formation was formed. .
Then Xu Muyang pointed at the small formation: "Hidden!"
I saw that the flickering array pattern had gradually dimmed and disappeared without a trace. If no one reminded me, no one would know that there was an additional array in the courtyard.
"Not bad! Not bad!" Looking at the new work he had just completed, Xu Muyang nodded with great satisfaction. He just arranged this formation at random, but during the process of arranging it, he felt that many good ideas suddenly came into his mind. The inspiration burst, and without hesitation, he hurried back to the room and wrote down his thoughts and feelings when setting up the formation one by one. In a big book Special book
When all was written, Xu Muyang's emotions had been vented to the fullest, and he felt that nothing was left out. Then he looked up at the sky and found that it was already dark.
His Xu family's Dongxu Meridian has a strong eye, which sees the night as day, so he failed to notice the arrival of the night.
"Strange, why hasn't that boy brought the food yet?" Xu Muyang whispered in surprise.
Usually by this time, Tang Jie would have come back and delivered dinner.
Suddenly realizing something, Xu Muyang slapped his head: "Oh no!"
I rushed out of the house and saw Tang Jie wandering around in the courtyard. His eyes were confused and he obviously couldn't figure out the direction. He shouted from time to time: "Brother Xu!"
It's just that the sound couldn't spread outside the formation, so Xu Muyang didn't hear it at first.
Looking at him, he has been trapped inside for a long time.
"Phew! Fortunately, it's just an illusion array." Xu Muyang also broke out in a cold sweat.
If a killing array had been set up at that time, Tang Jie would be a dead man now.
