Chapter 42: Tremble, mortal!
Wen Yiming was shocked, could it be that the unknown mentioned in the introduction was not the unknown source; Is it ominous, which is synonymous with bad luck? This is not difficult to understand from the words of the one-armed old man. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Shu Jianfeng practiced for three years and finally gave up, which can be understood as the exercises were not suitable for him; And the patriarch's cultivation declined after cultivation, which is really incomprehensible, except that improper cultivation damaged the foundation, Wen Yiming couldn't think of any other reason; As for the one-armed old man and Situ Qiandao, even if they practice their arms, it is possible that they have gone mad if they are not cultivated properly. And Liang Zhi, who was unknown fifty years ago, has instead cultivated an enviable combat power, which shows that "No Self" is not useless.
To sum up, what does this mean?
Wen Yiming is not an opinionless person, but he is accustomed to rationally analyzing the multifaceted nature of things with his own logical thinking.
The so-called ominousness of the one-armed old man is nothing more than the uncertainty of "No Self", if he really wants to say that "No Self" will bring bad luck to cultivators, or some kind of curse that is not in place, Wen Yiming will not believe it, after all, someone has succeeded.
In fact, Wen Yiming even agrees that the one-armed old man's "No Self" varies from person to person!
Jeet Kune Do is a similar martial art, except that Jiquan is not a pure school of internal boxing, and the deeper achievements he embodies are an unfettered concept of martial arts.
"Senior, please solve your doubts!"
Wen Yiming still wants to ask some secrets about "No Self" from the one-armed old man. After all, Liang Zhi fifty years ago had already proved his choice with the achievements known to the world and proved the extraordinaryness of "No Self".
The wise eyes of the one-armed old man were like watching a fire, and he saw the true thoughts in Wen Yiming's heart. There was a trace of complicated emotions in his eyes, disappointed, regretful, helpless... And so on.
"It seems that you have made up your mind, and it is inconvenient for the old man to say more. I'm just telling you everything I know, I hope it will help you. However, little one, you should remember that once you have even the slightest abnormality in your cultivation, the old decay will advise you to stop cultivating as soon as possible, and you can also take it as a warning! The one-armed old man's eyes gradually changed to seriousness.
Wen Yiming nodded, feeling the love of the one-armed old man, and at the same time listened attentively, for fear of missing a word.
"The grade of "No Self" needs to be verified, and it also varies from person to person. When others are cultivating, it may be a ground-level exercise, but if you are to cultivate, it may drop to the Xuan level, or even the yellow level; Of course, there is also an extremely small chance that it will be heavenly. This will be vividly reflected in the cultivation progress and battles. ”
"In fact, "Selfless" can be regarded as a kind of mental method in a large sense. When a hundred cultivators cultivate at the same time, there will be a hundred different understandings, which leads to the inability of people who practice "Selflessness" to communicate with each other, because their comprehension of the true meaning of "Selfless" is very different, and each of them thinks that their understanding is the most flawless. This also causes the "Selfless" classic to not be like other classics, with some cultivation experience and combat application experience attached to it. The experience and experience of cultivating "Selfless" are all based on their own exploration and summary from beginning to end. ”
"It can be said that even if the disciples of the entire Twin Cities cultivate selflessness, as yourself, you are still the first person to cultivate selflessness, and there is nothing to learn from!"
The one-armed old man almost shook his head and sighed at the end. put the two classics in front of Wen Yiming, and said helplessly: "Therefore, although the old man has practiced "No Self" for several years, he still can't really solve your doubts. Alright, let's go! ”
After saying that, the one-armed old man looked up to the sky again and closed his eyes as a recuperation, and no longer paid attention to Wen Yiming.
After he left, he opened his eyes slightly, and looked at the stone tablet outside the main hall in a trance.
Wen Yiming returned to his stone house nest all the way, threw "Eight Steps to Catch the Cicada" aside, and couldn't wait to study the ominous "No Self".
The opening paragraph of the text brings Wen Yiming deeply into it.
"I cultivated martial arts at the age of seven, and entered the army at the age of 12 as a charging dead soldier, after ten years, thousands of battles of all sizes, and passed by the god of death; Then he abandoned the army and traveled for more than 30 years, and fought countless battles without a single victory; In the end, he unfortunately strayed into the forbidden land of thousands of miles of scorched earth and narrowly escaped his life; When he was a sixtieth year, he created his own mental method of "No Self" in an epiphany; When he came out of the mountain in the ancient years, he was alone and crisscrossed the heaven-given continent, and there was no one in his hands, and he wanted to defeat and could not ......"
In just a few words, Wen Yiming was already speechless to the extreme.
The person who created "No Self" is really hard to press, ten years of cold weapon battlefield career, as cannon fodder, the charging dead soldier actually survived, whether it is luck against the sky, or a super strong will to survive, it proves that this person's success is not accidental; The most tragic thing is that he has been wandering the rivers and lakes for 30 years, with a negative record and has never won a game, this person's psychological quality and perseverance can be called a model of perseverance and never say die in Wen Yiming's view.
It wasn't until he experienced the life and death of thousands of miles of scorched earth that he created his own selfless mind at the age of sixty; Wen Yiming wondered if this was the only epiphany in this person's life, if that was the case, then he was really hanging to the sky.
This person re-emerged at the age of seventy, and since then he has been invincible, which can be regarded as a classic textbook that has come to an end and is a late bloomer.
In the infinite sigh, Wen Yiming continued to fall into concentration.
Except for the occasional sound of Wen Yiming flipping through the book, the stone house was so quiet that it could be heard. When the sky was getting dark, Wen Yiming gently closed "No Self" and put it on the small table next to him.
This is the first time Wen Yiming has forgotten to sleep and eat when he comes to the Tianci Continent. In one day, he had a rough understanding of "No Self".
"Selflessness" can be called the selfless mind, and the text of the whole book is easy to understand except for some introductions to "Selfless".
However, the cultivation of the selfless mind method is recorded in such a general way that it even flows like the outline of a novel. In many places, there are even confusing words such as 'to be further promoted and practiced' in red notes, and there is no incisive explanation.
The selfless mind method is divided into nine layers, and there is no such thing as a great success or a small success, but only three realms. They are that there is me and there is an enemy, there is me invincible, and there is no self and there is no invincible.
These three realms are not in order, high or low, strong or weak; As for which realm to comprehend first, it completely depends on the cultivator's understanding of "Selflessness", the most mysterious thing is that the three realms can not only be fully comprehended and coexist, but also separate and self-contained.
Just after reading it once, Wen Yiming found that "No Self" was the same as what the one-armed old man said, and it was really a world of difference between cultivators and their understanding.
Let's take the one-armed old man's story about Liang Zhi fifty years ago, the one-armed old man said that Liang Zhi had cultivated to the realm of Xiaocheng; However, Wen Yiming believes that there is no difference between the big and small realms of "No Self", and this alone causes disagreements between the two.
Wen Yiming secretly analyzed for half an hour, and finally decided to cultivate the selfless mind method according to his own thinking and understanding. So I opened "No Self" again and carefully studied it word by word; This time, he repeatedly pondered the first layer of the selfless mind, and while studying, he simulated the deduction in his mind; After an hour, after realizing that he had already understood the first layer of cultivation methods, he put down "No Self", crossed his knees on the bed, and calmly began to cultivate slowly.
The first time he practiced exercises other than Neijiaquan, Wen Yiming was extremely cautious, and entered the cultivation state step by step in strict accordance with the essentials and requirements he had just comprehended.
After pondering, Wen Yiming did not find that there was too much confusion in the first layer, and the entire cultivation mainly revolved around the word 'Jing'. The purpose is to let the cultivator get infinitely closer to the epiphany, and eventually reach the point where the epiphany is frequent. This was Wen Yiming's current understanding of the effect of the first layer of cultivation, and it also caused him a lot of shock.
What are you kidding, the first layer is for the purpose of stimulating an epiphany, it is simply unreasonable not to shake, is the epiphany so easy to inspire and touch? That's true, there are as many geniuses as dogs.
For 'quiet', Wen Yiming is well versed in this way. Neijiaquan pays attention to the pile method as the foundation of ten thousand boxing, and the pile method, as the essence of the inner boxing, is to enter the meditation as the first priority. Among them, Tai Chi is the most popular.
In less than ten minutes, Wen Yiming was completely silent in his cultivation. According to the key to the exercises, Wen Yiming hid his movements in silence, slowly controlling his mind to absorb the vitality of heaven and earth in his body.
After half an hour of cultivation, Wen Yiming had initially mastered the cultivation method of the first layer. I have a vague understanding of the cultivation methods of the Heavenly Continent.
Why fuzzy? And not probably. That's because Wen Yiming has a few doubts that he can't be sure, that is, the method of cultivating internal strength and true qi in the Heavenly Continent is mainly based on meditation; Secondly, in the entire classic, Wen Yiming did not find any introduction to acupuncture points and the eight veins of the Qi Sutra, which made him have to wonder if there was a doctrine of meridian acupoints in the Tianci Continent.
These two doubts are what he needs to figure out the most at present, which is not only related to his future cultivation, but also related to the direction of cultivation of the selfless mind, which can be said to be far beyond the degree of selfless teaching. This surprised Wen Yiming.
Wen Yiming largely believed that there was no meridian acupoint theory in the Tianci Continent. If this is the case, there is a good explanation for the incomprehension that he can be directly promoted to the fifth level of refining body in three months.
Wen Yiming had stopped cultivating, and once he had doubts in his heart, if he didn't solve them, it would be difficult for him to calm down and concentrate on his cultivation.
For the two biggest doubts just now, he needs to be cleared up immediately, and once it is determined, then he will formulate a future cultivation plan and go on for a long time.
Wen Yiming is 80% sure that his two inferences are correct; First, the method of cultivating internal qi in the mainland is based on meditation; Second, there is no meridian acupoint theory in the entire continent.
Thinking of this, Wen Yiming's heart was no less hot than the wedding night.
If it is true, his future martial arts avenue will be on the rise!
If it is true, his future martial arts system will be unique!
If it is true, he will be invincible in the future battles and battles!
Wowhaha! Wen Yiming's realm of obscenity has broken through to a new level.
At this moment, he very much agreed with Tong Qiang's words---
Tremble, mortal!
