Shi Xuan woke up from the darkness with a splitting headache, and vaguely remembered the huge pain of being hit by a truck. I saw the sun shining on my chest, feeling warm. Slowly, I felt the presence of my body. Not only did I sigh deeply, I was so lucky. I was hit by a big truck and flew so far away, but I still didn't die. At this time, many memory fragments popped up in my mind, and my head was as big as a bucket.
It turned out that I was already dead, but an antique bead that I bought as a talisman suddenly shone brightly, wrapped my soul, tore open the rift in space, came to this world, and possessed the unlucky person he is now. On the egg.
This body is that of a little Taoist priest, with a little bit of magic power. His original name was Du Bai. Ten years ago, there was a drought in Qingzhou. His parents took him, who was only eight years old at the time, to flee south. As a result, they both fell down on the roadside. Du Bai was not bad luck. Before he died of starvation, he was spotted by Xu Laodao who was passing by. , accepted as a disciple. Du Bai's own qualifications are also good. In just ten years, he has cultivated to the state of nourishing his energy and strengthening his soul, and he is highly valued by Taoist Master Xu.
In my memory, Xu Laodao often said that in the two capitals and thirteen states, there are only about ten people with real magic power, and the number of people with his magic power, plus those who are hidden in the world, is probably only one palm. It is only because he has been searching for immortality all his life that he is not famous in the world.
When Taoist Xu was a child, he had an unexpected encounter and discovered the true story. He continued to practice and had a strong desire to seek the Tao. He never married, and at the age of thirty, he practiced to the state of out-of-body spirituality. But in the next ten years, I only had profound skills and no direction to achieve breakthroughs in realm. Therefore, he went out to visit famous mountains, fairy waters, and places with various supernatural legends to look for immortals, but he could not find them all like a dream. At the age of 100, although there were still a few places he had not been to, he finally became discouraged and planned to return to his hometown.
On his way back to his hometown, he thought that he was a hundred years old and did not have a good life for more than ten years. He did not want the orthodoxy he had accepted and what he had learned to be lost, so he took Du Bai as his disciple.
After returning to his hometown, Taoist Xu found that although his family was still there, the familiar relatives in this house had already passed away in the past few years. The few living juniors did not know him, so he simply bought it in the west of the city. They settled in a small courtyard and raised Du Bai with peace of mind. While teaching him the Taoism, he also talked about his experience of traveling around and killing ghosts and monsters in his life. Ten years passed like this, and the old Taoist priest's time came. He fell asleep one night and never woke up.
Du Bai and Lao Tao had lived together for ten years, and naturally they were extremely grieved. Therefore, after burying Lao Tao, they could not get rid of distracting thoughts during a concentrated meditation.
Shi Xuan slowly sat up, stood in front of the bed and moved his hands and feet to calm down, then he sat cross-legged and started to practice the techniques in the memory fragments. He opened his eyes after a week of breathing and thought to himself. I am still a little lucky. If this kid had not gone crazy while meditating, but had gone crazy while meditating, I don’t know how much damage the body’s meridians would have suffered, and I don’t know how long he would have survived even if he was possessed. At that time, he would be able to There are two things to say about not being able to travel through time again. Now the body's meridians are only slightly damaged. If you take medicine and work hard, they will be intact within half a month.
As for the little bead that brought me through time travel, I wanted to see what happened as soon as I had the memory, but I just accepted the memory, my thinking was complicated, and I just came through time, and my emotions were still unstable. At this time, I forced myself to enter trance. Looking inside, there is no way that we will end up in the tragic situation where inner demons attack like that stupid boy.
Relying on his memory, Shi Xuan found three incense sticks in the bedside grid. This is a kind of calming sandalwood. Xu Laodao collected the materials himself and made it. It is very precious. Put the incense on the wooden table next to the incense burner, take the copper basin, open the door, and draw a basin of water from the small well in the small courtyard. It can be regarded as reliving the experience of going to the countryside to draw water from the well.
Carrying the copper basin, return to the room, put it away and lock the door. Then I washed my face with cold water and dried my face. Shi Xuan suddenly felt refreshed, and then slowly put on a new set of Taoist robes. Doing these is just a means, the purpose is to slowly calm down the emotions and gradually become unified through such solemn actions. This is also why many religions always have many rituals. One of the reasons is this, to calm down emotions and empty thoughts. Of course, in religion, this state coupled with the influence of the atmosphere of many people doing the same thing around you makes it more convenient to preach.
Shi Xuan learned the method from memory, moved the body's energy and blood, and then made a hand and chanted the incantation, which took about ten breaths. A flame appeared on his finger and lit three incense sticks. Shi Xuan was both novel and disappointed. In his previous life, as a person who had a special liking for immortals, he traveled to a world where he could cultivate immortals and use Taoism. The novelty was inevitable. In addition, his parents were tired in their early years and could not survive until they were in their sixties. After both passed away, I had no worries, so I could accept the fact of time travel relatively quickly, so I became curious about this world. It's disappointing that such a weak ignition technique has to be so slow to be used, and the power is still so small. It's really disappointing.
I remember Xu Tianshi said that in the first stage of training, the body is only strong enough to strengthen the soul, but you can't cast spells. In the second stage, you can cast spells, but the power is small, there are many steps, and it takes a long time. In head-to-head combat, the combat effectiveness of masters in the martial arts world (also considered as the Qi nourishing period) is not at the same level. Therefore, talismans and seals are often used, as well as setting up altars in advance and preparing for rituals before using spells. Of course, if there is a magic weapon, then it must be Prioritize the use of magic weapons.
Only when the soul leaves the body in the third stage and the soul becomes magical, can you gradually develop some minor magical powers. In addition, in addition to a few basic ones, minor magical powers also vary according to each person's soul and practice skills. At this stage, he is different from the martial arts master who has entered the realm of martial arts. If he is prepared, he is better than the martial arts master. As for Taoism, its power has increased, but there are many things like transporting energy and blood, making secrets and chanting mantras. For more powerful Taoism, you have to meditate and fight on the Gangbang cloth, which is really time-consuming, so fighting with others is generally They use talismans and seals, small magical powers, magic weapons, and even fists and feet.
Of course, Taoism is magical, and you don’t necessarily have to fight head-on to win. If a Taoist priest in the Qi-building and soul-building stage is prepared, it is relatively easy to kill the master of the inner family. As for the later stages, Xu Tianshi didn't know much about it. He just got along with the old friends, and when he reached the golden elixir cultivation stage, he could use his will to cast spells, destroy cities and rivers, and then he could be regarded as a god-like figure.
Concentrating his mind, Shi Xuan held three incense sticks and bowed three times in the air to comfort the soul of this body. Then he placed the incense sticks and sat cross-legged on the bed with his five hearts facing the sky. Fortunately, this body often enters concentration. Now with the help of sandalwood, Shi Xuan slowly enters concentration. As soon as he enters concentration, he finds that his soul is attracted to the Purple Palace between the eyebrows. The small bead is suspended quietly, the light is dim, but A ray of light was emitted from it, bringing a message to Shi Xuan's soul.
It turns out that this small bead is an acquired spiritual creature in this world, called the Mountain and River Bead, and was obtained by the ancient great power Qingyunzi. However, after Qingyunzi condensed the two flowers of the Golden Immortal (Hedao), he committed murder and killed others. They died together, and before they died, they thought of walking alone. My teacher, Taoist Yu Yu, had seen through the Tao and escaped from this world to open up a new world. I couldn't let the Taoism be lost in this world, so I took away the foundation of my teacher's Taoism and my own practice* *The "Shangqing Yu Zhenzhen Chuan Du E De Dao Bao Lu" was left in this acquired spiritual object, the Mountain and River Pearl, which had just been obtained but had not yet been sacrificed, and was sent out with the last mana to break the void.
Unexpectedly, Shanhezhu encountered a space-time shock on the way and traveled to another world, which is the earth where Shi Xuan is located. Later, he gradually accumulated strength over millions of years. Under the stimulation of Shi Xuan's blood first and then his soul after his car accident, he burst out his strength. With the time and space signpost left by Qing Yunzi in the Shanhe Pearl, he brought Shi Xuan to Yu Yu. Taoists once created a world to prove the Tao, which is the hometown of Qingyunzi - Yu Yutian World.
After passing on this message, he passed on a mysterious Taoist book to Shi Xuan's soul, but its own light was completely dimmed, and it seemed that it was slowly recovering its strength.
Shi Xuan learned from Qing Yunzi’s message at the beginning of the Taoist book that Taoism in this world is divided into two major levels: Qi training and Yuanshen. Qi training is divided into: nourishing the soul, strengthening the soul, leaving the body, and guiding Qi. There are seven stages: divine soul, golden elixir, and Yin Shen. The stage of Yuanshen is divided into Yuanshen, Yangshen, Heaven and Man, Hedao, Creation, and Eternity.
Of course, the above stage names are only abbreviations. For example, the full name of the Qi training stage is: body training and soul nourishing, Qi nourishing and soul strengthening, soul leaving the body, entraining Qi and forging the soul, soul and soul unity, golden elixir cultivation, and Yin Shen condensation.
After practicing the two steps of forging the body and nourishing the soul, nourishing the qi and strengthening the soul, you can reach the limit of your lifespan. When the soul leaves the body, you can live an extra thirty years, about 120 years old. The lifespan of the soul reaches two hundred years, the lifespan of the spirit and soul is increased to three hundred years, the lifespan of the master in the golden elixir stage reaches six hundred years, and the Yin Shen Venerable can live to one thousand two hundred years old.
After the level of Yuanshen, Qingyunzi only briefly mentioned the real Yuanshen who had stepped through the barrier of life and death, also known as the real ghost immortal. He lived as long as heaven and earth, but had to survive various tribulations, and asked Shi Xuan not to let his physical body be destroyed. Damage, otherwise the Yuanshen cannot be achieved, and it is said that after the Yuanshen is achieved, the second half of the Baolu - the Yuanshen chapter - will appear.
Shi Xuan woke up from sedation, and after a moment of reflection, he remembered the contents of the first half of the "Du'e De Dao Bao Lu". It seems that soul memory is indeed much more effective. But now is not the time to practice. The most important thing now is to think about your future path and how to take it.
Because as a time traveler, I have no foundation. If I don’t have any plans for the future, it will be difficult for my mind to settle down. With direction, steps, and goals, the whole person will be at ease. This phrase is often used now. That way, you can feel safe. It is precisely before you can calm your mind that you can calm your mind. Don’t you see in modern society, how many people are empty and restless because they have no goals or have goals but no plans and steps.
Of course, we don’t know much information yet, so we can only make a rough plan. In the future, I will make modifications when I have more knowledge or encounter something.
This is also the logic that a cautious science and engineering person like Shi Xuan is most accustomed to.
