0015 Eclectic and merit-based

"As for soul refining, it is to wait until the cultivation realm reaches a certain level, guide one's soul out of the physical body, and continue to grow steadily step by step, from tangible to intangible, from yin deficiency to yang reality......

"Guide the soul out of the body, step by step to strengthen the true soul, go down to the nine shadows, and go up to the nine heavens. ”

"In fact, this exercise is divided into three categories, and later they are all different paths to the same end, and when they reach the realm, Yu Gao and Yu can go hand in hand and merge into one furnace. ”

"It's just that the various exercises in the early stage complement each other, which will help you improve your realm and increase your strength, and have more self-protection and open up magic powers, so as to best deal with the dangers you will face in the process of cultivation. ”

"Cultivating the way of strong eating weak flesh, going against the sky, disobeying orders, fighting with people, fighting with the sky, all kinds of hardships and dangers, only when you set foot in it, you can know yourself, and those who are not very determined cannot step into it. ”

Xingtian is extremely responsible for Kou Xingtian, and spares no effort to teach the exercises, wholeheartedly.

"There is also the practice of Buddhism, which is diametrically opposed to the Taoist practice, which pays attention to an epiphany and the six senses of people, namely ear knowledge, nose knowledge, eye knowledge, mouth knowledge, spiritual knowledge, and wisdom. ”

"When participating in the Buddha's Qi refinement, it is necessary to cut off all contact between oneself and the outside world and realize one's own nature, that is, the so-called: the emptiness of all dharmas, neither birth nor destruction, no impurity, no increase or decrease, so there is no color in the air, no consciousness of thinking, no eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind, no color, sound, fragrance, taste, touch, no vision, and even no consciousness, no ignorance, no end of ignorance, no old age and death, no old age and death, no suffering and no extinction, no wisdom and no gain. (Note: The words of the Prajna Heart Sutra)

"There are two great methods of Buddhism and Taoism, two completely different ways of practice, but we have to start from the roots. ”

"Buddhism and Taoism have a long history, old and dead do not get along, and the art of cultivating truth also originated from its school of thought. ”

"Taking Taoism as an example, its main purpose lies in the word 'Tao', the so-called: Tao gives birth to one, life to two, two to three, and three to all things. All things are negative yin and embrace yang, and the middle air is harmonious. (Note: The words are from the fifth chapter of the Tao Te Ching). ”

"Taoism originates from Taoist thought, and even the realm of Taoism's 'one gas and three clears' is also named after the Yuqing, Shangqing, and Taiqing of the Yuan Shi Tianzun, Lingbao Tianzun and Daode Tianzun in Taoist mythology, which is commonly known as the 'Three Qings'. ”

"Taoism cultivates the truth, pays attention to the common heaven and earth, the body is the same as nature, and the body is created by nature, and turned into great power, which is the so-called three-in-two, two-in-one, and one. ”

"Cultivating the Tao is to use human beings to reverse the natural laws of heaven and earth. ”

"On the other hand, Buddhism, on the other hand, is that 'things should have no place to live and give birth to their minds, and all dharmas should not be separated from their own nature'. Youyun: When is the self-nature, the original is pure, when is the self-nature, the original is not born and destroyed, when the period is self-nature, the original is self-sufficient, when the period is self-nature, the original is unshaken, and when the period of self-nature, can give birth to ten thousand laws!

"Buddhism cultivates the truth, pays attention to self-understanding, and sees the five aggregates, "can give birth to 84,000 wisdom with ordinary truths", this is the truth. ”

"Buddhism and Taoism are very different, and the practice of the Dharma is naturally the opposite, Taoist Qi refining is to open the pores of the seven orifices of the whole body, and lead the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the body to run along the meridians, so as to exercise and stabilize the body's vitality and internal meridians;"

"Buddhism, however, requires to enter the realm of silence, to close off the whole body's thoughts and actions, to take one's own body as one world, to see one's own nature, to deepen the true essence of the heart, and to consolidate the essence and cultivate the yuan. ”

To put it bluntly, in fact, the principle is to treat the human body itself as a small universe, corresponding to the entire universe of heaven and earth. ”

"Taoism just borrowed the power of the external universe for self-cultivation and improvement from the beginning, while Buddhism only strives to develop and tap the infinite potential of its own small universe, believing that its own potential is originally unlimited and infinite, and there is no need to rely on external forces at all. ”

"Based on the differences in philosophy, it is just that for thousands of years, Taoism and Buddhism have kept their own secrets and are unknown. ”

"You are indeed the head of each family, it is obvious to all," Demon Ancestor Chiyou sighed.

Xing Tian said proudly: "That's nature, the boundless mana that I have as the God of Creation, is mainly to control the laws of heaven and earth and the rules of the universe, I used to be in charge of all this, the laws of heaven and earth: metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, ice, light, darkness, destiny...... Cosmic Rules: Time, Space, Chaos, Balance, Life, Death, ......"

"These are not what we can imagine now, we can only start with the original monk step by step, and I don't want to go through too much wordiness!"

Xingtian no longer hesitated, and finally finished teaching the exercises for Kou Xingtian: "Boy, I will imprint all the exercises directly in your mind, you can understand it well, everything depends on your own efforts." ”

Kou Xingtian is still young, and he has never cultivated, and he has accepted too much at one time, including the laws of gods, demons, Buddhas, and Taoists, and he is really at a loss, and he doesn't know how to choose.

He meditated and meditated hard, and at first he didn't hear anything outside the window, and he didn't even notice the passage of time......

The amount of information he received was too large, and after a few days, he sifted through them one by one, and finally determined that the Demon Gate's "Nine Turns of Desperate Decision" was the first choice for refining qi, and Xingtian's original "Tai Chi Yitian Qiankun Dao" could be used as a comparison and reference for the long road of cultivation in the future.

At the same time, "Maha Prajna Wei Tuo" is the best technique of refining the body, this pestle method in the heart of a little consideration to know that yin and yang are combined, rigid and soft, skin membrane, muscles, bones can be tempered one by one, there is no omission.

There is also the Buddha Tuo visualization method of refining the soul is definitely the first choice, and it seems that they can't be abandoned, and it is their own regret to give up.

As a result, Kou Xingtian no longer hesitated, and repeatedly recalled the first layer of the "Nine Turns of Destiny" mental method of "Life and Death by Fate" several times, pinched it with both hands, meditated cross-legged, meditated in his heart, let go of the six senses, opened the pores of the whole body, and sank into the dantian.

The meridians in the body begin to operate according to the formula, guiding the aura of heaven and earth into the body.

In this way, the whole body was immersed, and after half a pillar of incense, there seemed to be a subtle sense of qi penetrating into the pores of the whole body, and it seemed that the more time passed, the more condensed, and the body began to produce a feeling like an ant crawling slightly, which was a sign of aura entering the body.

Kou Xingtian was overjoyed in his heart, and repeatedly warned himself not to be nervous, but to relax his body and mind, and imagine that he had become nothingness and merged into heaven and earth.

Thinking about it, everyone knows that it is very difficult to guide the spiritual energy to run in the positive direction along the meridians when you first start refining qi.

Not to mention this condensation reversal, it is even more difficult a hundred or a thousand times, which is the same as pushing a boat down the river and sailing against the current.

For a while, I felt that there were many arduous obstacles to the weak flow of breath in the body, and this kind of qi induction in the body meridians pushed an inch or half an inch of mental energy, and there was often a sense of powerlessness that could not be helped and could not be persevered.

Kou Xingtian thought again in his heart, since the follow-up was powerless, and the qi sense could not circulate in the meridian pulse, it was better to gather qi in the dantian and expand the dantian qi sea, so as to accumulate spiritual power, condense true qi, and earn enough power source.

So he thought of it, and Kou Xingtian collected all the aura inhaled from the pores and acupoints into the dantian, stored and grew it, and worked tirelessly to gradually enter the best realm, reaching the realm of forgetting things and me.

I don't know how long I've been immersed in this way, but Kou Xingtian finally sensed that his dantian was much stronger.

When he woke up from his meditation, he realized that it was already the next day, and the whole night had passed unconsciously.

I simply forgot the concept of time, and the exercises made little progress, only slightly strengthened the dantian.

Kou Xingtian was stunned in his heart, and finally began to realize the difficulty of cultivation.

He climbed down the stone bed where he was meditating, and when he saw the primeval demon ape still sleeping soundly in the cave, he didn't bother, but began to check the various items left by the Great Sage Six-eared Macaque King on the side of the stone bed.

Such a big demon saint is only afraid of accumulating a lot of good treasures, and that treasure bag is a space magic weapon at first glance.

Space magic weapons are extremely rare, especially when they are made into treasures such as storage bags, everything is stuffed into it, no matter how many or how big items you have, they are so simple to pack up and carry with you.

Kou Xingtian knew that this treasure bag was a storage bag, and he expected that the savings of this six-eared macaque king must be stored in it.

But this is a magic weapon, either sacrifice it, obliterate the soul prohibition and thoughts set up in it by the six-eared macaque king, and then imprint your own spiritual imprint inside, and completely take it for your own use.

Either use mana to open it, otherwise you can't take out the items inside, which involves some application of space rules.

Kou Xingtian obviously has no mana now, so he has no choice but to tie it around his waist, and look at the drape, which is also a complete set of clothes similar to magic weapons.

If the clothing magic weapon is refined and worn on the body, it can control itself to fly in the air, which is also extremely rare and precious.

In particular, cultivators are shallow in their skills, and they can escape better if they don't have defense.

Kou Xingtian had no mana to refine and could not wear it, so he had to pack it in a treasure bag.

Look at the wishful pestle again, it is the famous weapon of the six-eared macaque king of the Great Sage of Ventilation, a superb magic weapon, and the grade is extremely high.

Kou Xingtian looked at this magic weapon as inconspicuous, but in fact, he didn't know that in the cultivation world, the weapon of the Monkey King was already very rare, this was an immortal weapon in the upper realm, where could it be seen in the human realm.

It is enough to fight to the death between the monks, bloody and bloody.
