Chapter 7: The First Cultivation
The room where Long Lao stopped was the one where he had been lying in a coma for two days, but after opening the door, the decoration inside was completely different.
Zhuo Yue was stunned to look at this room that was several times larger than before, and the area was only larger than the entire tea house, but there was no trace of anything unusual from the outside, it was the same as the room in the casino before, and the space inside was inexplicably extended by the monk.
The original wooden bed and small cabinets are gone, replaced by all kinds of luxurious furniture and appliances, and there is even a high-end-looking computer on the table by the window.
In the corners and on the windowsill were plants he had never seen before, which looked like mimosas, but on each leaf hung a small drop of blue-white water.
Even the lines on the floor are like a gossip pattern, and you can clearly see a little light circulating in the gaps of the lines.
Where had Zhuo Yue seen such a battle, he looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief, and muttered to himself, "This is my room?"
Long Lao smiled and patted him on the shoulder, and quipped: "Young man, for us monks, money is really just money, and spirit stones are the foundation of survival. ”
"This plant is called Water Spirit Grass, which can gather spiritual energy and increase the intensity of spiritual energy within a certain range. The floor is also depicted with a simple spirit gathering formation. ”
He took out another book and handed it to Zhuo Yue, but in Zhuo Yue's eyes, it was just a few sheets of A4 printing paper stapled together, and three huge black fonts on the first page-Gathering Spirits.
"This is the most basic method of refining qigong, and its only function is to help you refine spiritual energy from heaven and earth, and then you can start trying to cultivate. Your talent is not bad, and I believe that it will not be long before you can successfully refine the aura and become a monk. ”
After Long Lao left, Zhuo Yue sat on the bed and looked at Ju Ling Jue, if he hadn't seen a corner of the monk world with his own eyes, he would never have believed that these few pieces of paper in his hand would actually be a cultivation exercise.
Suddenly, he found that the content on it overlapped with the thousands of words of ancient text that Zhuo Zixuan had left in his mind, and some of the content was extremely similar, and the places that he didn't understand before suddenly became clear.
The Qi Refining Decision handed over to him by Elder Long is actually a simplified version, and a lot of the content on it is not recorded, but it is more understandable. After understanding the meaning of this ancient text, Zhuo Yue's heart was entangled, not knowing whether it was the simplified version of the cultivation or the original version left to him by Zhuo Zixuan.
After worrying in bed for a long time, he finally decided to cultivate according to the thousands of words of ancient text left to him by Zhuo Zixuan. He had long understood that those extra memories belonged to his father Zhuo Zixuan, which meant that the two ancient books placed in the white stone box were what he wanted to leave for himself.
Thinking of this, he put aside the Spirit Gathering Decision in his hand, closed his eyes and reviewed the entire ancient text word by word. After repeating it three times, it is only then that the cultivation begins step by step according to the ancient text.
......
"It's been three days, and it's still not successful. ”
At this moment, Long Lao was sitting at the tea table on the first floor, sweeping to the position on the second floor from time to time, and the elusive Su Mo was standing behind the counter - brewing coffee.
"You should also pay attention to the influence, my teahouse has been in business since you came. Long Lao smiled bitterly, then glanced at the second floor again, and muttered: "This kid's talent will never be like this, how can this be?"
With the assistance of the Water Spirit Grass and the Spirit Gathering Formation, according to his estimate, it shouldn't take long for Zhuo Yue to sense the spiritual power in heaven and earth. If it continues to be consumed like this, the spiritual power will not absorb people to starve to death first, and low-level monks will not be able to live by relying on spiritual energy alone.
In fact, as long as the power of divine consciousness was mobilized, Zhuo Yue's situation at the moment would appear in his mind at a glance. With Long Lao's cultivation, the few simple formations on the second layer could not cause any obstacles to him at all. But out of appreciation for Zhuo Yue, Long Lao did not choose to use this way to spy on his secrets.
Su Mo ignored him, supported his chin with one hand, swiped his phone with his cheek sideways, and occasionally stopped to take a sip of coffee. Except for a pair of beautiful eyes that make people feel cold, there is no difference between him and a fashionable young woman.
It took a long time for her to respond, "Are you going to take him as an apprentice?"
"Hey, I don't want to get involved in more rights and wrongs when I'm older, and I'll be satisfied if I can take care of this place before I die. ”
"This kid is not only spiritually good, but also has excellent conduct, which is indeed rare. Today's young people's eyes are higher than the sky, one race and one rebellious, I really miss the time when I respected teachers in the past. "If Zhuo Yue didn't have those hidden secrets, it would be okay for him to accept apprentices.
When Long Lao was sighing, Zhuo Yue was tortured and painful, his whole body twitched and twisted violently, and his body was covered with earthworm-like green tendons, and he could see a large bag bulging and then disappearing.
The beginning of his cultivation was actually quite smooth, and after only five hours, he could feel the white light spots in the air, and he knew that this aura was and tried to absorb it into his body.
As soon as the aura entered his body, he felt indescribable pleasure, and then the aura in his body continued to gather in his lower abdomen, slowly producing a feeling of swelling.
When he wanted to stop cultivating, he realized that he was no longer actively absorbing the aura, and the endless stream of aura in the air frantically poured into his body, for several days, causing him to become what he is now.
His throat couldn't make a sound, his eyes were about to burst out, and the Water Spirit Grass and Spirit Gathering Array, which were originally meant to assist in cultivation, had instead become a life-urging talisman.
In the past three days, he could only run the Gathering Spirit Decision over and over again, mobilizing the spiritual energy in his body to compress the dantian in his lower abdomen to prevent his body from being blown up by the spiritual energy, so that a substantial spiritual qi mass appeared in the dantian. As the aura surged wildly, the aura mass grew bigger and bigger like a tumor, squeezing the internal organs in the body.
Zhuo Yue has become a water man, sweat seeps out from the pores of his body all the time, and his body is becoming more and more bloated like a balloon, as if it will explode if he pokes a small needle lightly.
And the compression of the aura became extremely difficult, and just when he couldn't bear the pain in his heart and wanted to give up, the aura from the outside world finally stabilized and no longer entered his body. The aura mass could no longer hold any more aura, and the excess aura scurried around for a while and then slowly merged into the muscles, and the body gradually returned to its normal state.
Zhuo Yue lay on the bed in all directions, his heart was terrified, his face was as pale as snow, the sheets were completely soaked with sweat, and there were even pools of stagnant water on the floor. The skin is covered with layers of sticky black paste oil, and the smell is unbearable.
He endured his exhaustion and walked to the toilet to wash his body, but he was stunned when he saw the muscular and strong body in the mirror. Although he is not very fat, the pile of fat on his stomach is from sleeping with Song Yushi.
Not only that, but his skin was much fairer than before, and even though he was very weak at the moment, he could still feel the power of an explosion in his body.
Gradually, he began to notice more changes, everything in his eyes was extremely clear, and he even had a sense of God's perspective - he seemed to be able to see himself standing in the toilet.
"Could it be that this is the divine consciousness that Elder Long said?" Zhuo Yue hurriedly took out the small black metal card, and the moment he touched the monk's proof, a piece of information passed into his mind.
Zhuo Yue, Huaxia Monk, Scattered Cultivation, the realm is the early stage of Qi gathering, and a series of numbers.
He excitedly swung his fist into the air, and the sonic boom reverberated throughout the room, bringing gusts of wind with gusts.
"That's what a monk feels. ”
After getting acquainted with the various changes in his body, Zhuo Yue changed his clothes and walked out of the door, Long Lao was finally relieved when he heard the movement from the second floor, even if he didn't want to accept apprentices, his love for talent still inevitably rose.
"Elder Long, uh...... Sister Su. He looked at Su Mo who was sitting there, and immediately said hello nervously.
But Su Mo didn't even move his head, completely ignoring him, making Zhuo Yue stand on the stairs embarrassed, but fortunately, Long Lao helped him out in time, "Haha, Su Mo is like this, don't care." ”
"If you kid doesn't come out again, I'm going to break down the door and go in....." Long Lao's words froze, and he suddenly stood up and circled Zhuo Yue twice, and said in surprise: "Early stage of gathering qi." ”
Zhuo Yue's heart tightened, could it be that the simplified version was really different from the original version, and was seen by Long Lao?
"Your kid is a bit evil, you have absorbed so much aura in just three days, if Li Tianqi's old boy knows about it, you will regret it to death. "Generally speaking, it takes a few months or even longer for a monk to accumulate spiritual energy from the first time he absorbs spiritual energy to the time he enters the qi gathering period, but Zhuo Yue actually crossed this stage in three days, and he is really famous.
"It's okay, so that the basic spirit weapon can be used. "Elder Long didn't find a problem with Zhuo Yue's cultivation technique, he just blamed the anomaly on the Dao Sect technique that lingered outside his body that night.
Seeing that Long Lao did not continue to investigate, Zhuo Yue, who was relieved, began to knock on the side and ask him about the origin of the Gathering Spirit Decision.
"Gathering Spirits is one of the most widely circulated exercises in the cultivation world, and it is also one of the oldest exercises. It's a pity that with the change of the cultivation environment, most of these ancient methods are difficult to practice, and there will even be life-threatening dangers. Therefore, in order to cater to heaven and earth, the monks have modified many exercises. ”
"Gathering Spirit Decision is one of them, the original version of the exercise has been lost for thousands of years, and now it is a superficial trimmed version, saying that the exercises have lifted it. ”
Speaking of this, Long Lao suddenly blushed a little, it was really embarrassing to take out this kind of thing to fool people, but his exercises were not suitable for others to cultivate, and the grade of other exercises was too low, and indiscriminate cultivation would affect Zhuo Yue's future.
Although the Gathering Spirit Decision is tattered, it also has the advantage that it can be compatible with any exercise, and it is not too late to find an exercise suitable for Zhuo Yue's cultivation in the future and then hand it over to him.
Zhuo Yue didn't think so much in his heart, and he figured out the difference between the two exercises, and then let go of his hanging heart. What Zhuo Zixuan left him should be the original version of the Gathering Spirit Decision, which is not compatible with the modern heaven and earth aura, so there was an accident when he was cultivating, and he almost exploded and died.
However, in this way, the identity of his father Zhuo Zixuan became more and more mysterious, even Long Lao said that what had been lost for thousands of years, how could his father have it? Where is the hut where the white stone box is housed?
At the moment, we can only take one step at a time.
