Li Xiaokuan thought about it for a long time, but he still didn't understand.

So he raised his hand, hoping that the old man would give him a hint.

After getting the old man's consent, Li Xiaokuan stood up under the gaze of forty-eight pairs of surprised eyes.

"You've mastered the art of spitting?"

The old man asked.

Li Xiaokuan shook his head and said, "No, it's the question just now, I have a question I want to ask Mr. ”

When the old man heard this, he shook his head with a smile and motioned for Li Xiaokuan to sit down, and the rest of the people also chuckled lightly and continued to bow their heads and study.

Li Xiaokuan was a little puzzled, and the old man said: "The question has been turned over, and I will not return to it." ”

Li Xiaokuan had no choice but to sit down, sighed secretly, and then concentrated on looking at the small book in front of him.

The word "Tuna" on the left side of the small book should only be an introduction, and the real focus must be on the villain drawn on the right.

But what could the little man see as he sat there quietly?

Li Xiaokuan was puzzled, so he had to go back and study the word "Tuna" in front of him, hoping to be inspired.

"Spitting, it's breathing. ”

Li Xiaokuan had also heard of this method of vomiting before, but because he didn't deliberately understand it, he was not impressed.

"I think you need to take a deep breath. ”

"Inhale...... Exhale...... Inhalation ......"

Li Xiaokuan meditated in his heart, while trying to relax his body as much as possible.

"I don't feel anything......"

"Is it about speed?"

Li Xiaokuan vaguely remembered that the rhythm of this breathing method was also a science, but he didn't know it, so he could only constantly change the strength and speed of his breathing.

"How can this be useful, you can cultivate by adjusting your breathing?

Li Xiaokuan was about to give up and look for other ways, when he suddenly saw that the chest of the villain on the right side of the small book lit up, but it soon darkened again.

"It's ......"

Seeing this, Li Xiaokuan hurriedly resumed the speed of breathing just now, and sure enough, the villain's chest lit up again.

Li Xiaokuan remembered and maintained this rhythm, and the villain's chest also lit up and darkened, flickering alternately.

"I see, but what do you do after that?"

Li Xiaokuan kept his breath and turned back to think about the word "Tuna".

"To spit out is to spit out. To accept is to incorporate. ”

"What is exhaled is turbidity, and what is incorporated is clear. ”

"Breathing is to exchange turbid qi with clear qi to keep enough clear qi in the body. ”

"So where did all this clear air go?"

According to what Li Xiaokuan has learned on the earth, people need to breathe because they need oxygen in the air, which is transported through the blood, transmitted to various tissues, and oxidized by enzymes and some other nutrients, so as to produce the energy needed for activities, and produce carbon dioxide to be excreted from the body.

Constant breathing is all about making sure that the body can get enough energy to keep the various organs running!

"Qi gathers and lives, and dies when angry!"

"The root of the breath should be to make the energy continue to be generated, not only to meet the needs of the human body, but also to have a surplus!"

Thinking of this, Li Xiaokuan was so excited that he almost shouted.

"But how do you accumulate all this energy?"

Li Xiaokuan thought of a word that he could often see when reading online novels before, and that was "dantian"!

There is a word called "Qi Shen Dantian", which is to introduce qi into the dantian when inhaling, and accumulate into the eight veins of the Qi Sutra.

"But how, exactly?"

Li Xiaokuan went to the right side to observe the villain again, and saw that there were thin lines on the villain's body, which now seemed to represent the meridians of the villain.

Li Xiaokuan stared at the flickering point of light, and found that the meridian where the point of light was located led to many places, but there was only a little growth in one direction, as if it was a broken line.

No, it's not, Li Xiaokuan took a closer look and found that this was not the case, that line was not broken, but it was much thinner and lighter than the other lines.

Li Xiaokuan followed this thin line down and found that it actually went straight to the lower abdomen, and there should be a dantian.

Although he already knew the route, he still didn't know how to do it.

And this villain can no longer see any new tricks.

This made Li Xiaokuan a little irritable, he closed his eyes and felt the breath, but he was never able to make those breaths go down.

At this time, the old man's indifferent voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "Clear your heart and clear your mind, and distracting thoughts are not born." ”

Stunned, he looked up and saw that the old man was not looking at him.

Li Xiaokuan realized that this might be the old man giving him a hint, so he was silently grateful. I also followed the old man's prompts, closed my eyes, didn't think about anything else, and felt the breath of coming in and out more carefully.

Gradually, he found that he could clearly feel the pure qi between heaven and earth entering his nose and circulating in his body. But his perception of his own body is becoming more and more blurred.

Just when this perception was about to disappear completely, a vicissitudes and majestic voice woke him up.

"Rest in peace, don't get into trouble. Keep a thought in mind and look at your own mind. ”

Li Xiaokuan immediately came back to his senses, and his breathing was disordered for a moment.

I was about to fall into nothingness just now, but fortunately the old man stopped it in time.

Li Xiaokuan cast a grateful look at the old man, but the old man still didn't look at him.

So he continued to close his eyes and try, as the old man said, to retain his consciousness while he got rid of distracting thoughts.

"Observing the ...... of Your Own Heart"

Li Xiaokuan found that as his will strengthened, he seemed to be able to really perceive the shape and color of his organs, as if he had seen it with his own eyes. This feeling is similar to when I entered the previous space where I had the existence of the Qin State.

So he followed that feeling again.

Sure enough, his consciousness in it became stronger and stronger, until he condensed into a tiny, transparent body again.

Now he could clearly see the nearby meridians.

It's just that those meridians are crystal clear, and there is no blood flowing in them, only some breath is constantly running.

"This is not supposed to be my own body. ”

Li Xiaokuan guessed that this might be a body temporarily formed by this space for him.

"Forget it, go to that meridian and have a look. ”

Li Xiaokuan's heart moved, and he followed these meridians to the small meridian he remembered before.

"Hey, that's a lot smaller than the other meridians!"

Li Xiaokuan looked at it and frowned.

The meridians in front of him were completely occluded, and there was almost no gap in sight, only a fold remained.

"Try it. ”

Li Xiaokuan began to control his body, and deliberately squeezed hard in this direction as he inhaled.

The meridian puffed up and returned to its original state.

"There's a play!"

Then Li Xiaokuan repeated this action continuously, and the front end of that meridian was gradually stretched open, and it no longer recovered.

With this start, it went a lot smoother.

Li Xiaokuan controlled his breath to sink and sink again.

Finally, Li Xiaokuan's consciousness came to another space in his body through this meridian.

The space is dim, but a translucent air mass can be seen floating in the center. Gases are constantly emitting from the air mass and escaping through the flesh walls.

"It's similar to ordinary qi, but it's different, this feeling is more like ......"

Li Xiaokuan immediately remembered the chaos.

"Innate vitality!"

It turns out that the core vitality of a person is in the dantian, and the vitality in this dantian is escaping outward all the time.

Li Xiaokuan realized that this could be related to a person's lifespan. If all this vitality is gone, then that person's life will also come to an end.

"It is said that people die like lights go out, so this vitality is lamp oil!"

"No wonder the legendary cultivators all have a long lifespan, it turns out that they have found a way to add lamp oil to the lamp of life!"

"And now, I'm okay with Li Xiaokuan!"

Li Xiaokuan pressed his excited heart and carefully controlled the inhaled clear qi, causing it to converge in the direction of the innate vitality.

Under Li Xiaokuan's gaze, that ball of clear qi gradually wrapped around the innate vitality, forming a layer of shell. But then that layer of vitality dispersed outward, escaping out of the dantian, and this situation was repeated, but each time the pure qi was poured in, a very small part could be left.

Li Xiaokuan was not surprised at all, but was a little happy. Because he understands that everything is about a step-by-step approach, and if he can become a fat man in one go, then who will cultivate hard.

As long as there is an effect, the next step is to accumulate over a long period of time.

After a period of practice, Li Xiaokuan was pleasantly surprised to find that the Qing Qi incorporated by the method of breathing would actually enter the dantian by itself, and he no longer needed to deliberately guide himself, which undoubtedly saved him a lot of effort.

This means that in the future, as long as you turn the rhythm of breathing into a habit, then even if you walk, eat or do other things, it is still equivalent to accumulating innate qi!

In class, Li Xiaokuan's tightly closed eyes slowly opened, and after looking around, he found that the rest of the people were all still sitting quietly with their eyes closed, probably trying to swallow the method.

Li Xiaokuan did not hesitate and quietly raised his hand.

The old man obviously didn't look here before, but he looked at it for the first time and nodded.

"I've mastered the art of breathing. ”

Li Xiaokuan stood up and said softly, his voice was not too loud, for fear of disturbing the people next to him, because he knew that people were the most taboo to disturb when they were staring at cultivation.

But the people around me didn't seem to hear it, and there was no movement at all.

"Now that you have mastered the content of this lesson, you are free to leave or stay, and after seven days, you will be recruited when the second lesson begins. ”

The old man nodded.

"How do you leave?"

Li Xiaokuan asked, he couldn't wait to try it in his original body, and he didn't know how long he had been here, and he didn't have any sense of the outside world.

"Close your book. The old man replied lightly.

Li Xiaokuan nodded in gratitude, then sat down and stretched out his hand to the small book in front of him.

The back of the book was still like a rock, unmoving, but the page that was turned was as light as a feather.

Li Xiaokuan carefully turned the page back to its original position, for fear of tearing it off.

As soon as the little book was closed, a golden light lit up, enveloping Li Xiaokuan.

As soon as his eyes darkened, Li Xiaokuan realized that he had returned to his body sitting by the Qiandao River.
