After listening to Zhang Xiaoxiao's story, Fang Wuxian was still a little confused, and asked, "Then what realm am I now?" I didn't generate qi, so now is it time to train my body, refine my essence, or turn my qi? ”

Zhang Xiaoxiao stared at Fang Wuxie's face for a long time, except that the general outline of this face was similar to "Fang Wuxie", there was no resemblance at all, and she couldn't substitute it into Fang Wuxie's identity when she saw this face.

Fang Wuxian was stared at by her, and coughed dryly. Zhang Xiaoxiao came back to her senses and explained: "According to my observation, you don't belong to these three realms now. ”

Fang Wuxian said: "Don't belong? Haven't I even seen the threshold for cultivation? ”

"It's not that you haven't seen it, but you're already on the threshold."

Zhang Xiaoxiao said: "Actually, in the division of the Nine Realms of Cultivation, it is not an exaggeration to say that the first three realms are one great realm. Ordinary people practice their bodies rationally, and once they can perceive the movement of qi and blood, they can be regarded as stepping into the first-order body refining realm. It is not difficult to enter this realm, but it is not that simple to practice from the beginning, and it requires understanding and chance in practice, and this threshold divides the world into ordinary people and martial artists, which shows its importance.

When a cultivator can mobilize the essence and blood of his body and exert his strength far beyond ordinary people, he will enter the second-order refinement realm. The first order is perception, and the second level is manipulation, which can mobilize power to concentrate attacks. This realm is much simpler than entering the first order, even if the comprehension is not enough, through hard work, one day you will be able to mobilize the power of qi and blood, even if you can only mobilize a part, the power you exert will far exceed that of ordinary people.

If you continue to practice, the qi veins around your body will be smoother, and the qi and blood will run in a circle, and you will sense the vitality of heaven and earth, and when you make a move, you will use the power of qi and blood to cater to the operation of the vitality of heaven and earth, and you will enter the third-order qi realm. This realm requires chance and understanding, and for most people, it is an insurmountable threshold. Therefore, many people on the rivers and lakes stop at the second order, or in the late stage of the third order, it is difficult to take a step. You and me in the past, and now Lei Meng, Leng Feng, etc., are all in the third-order qi realm. ”

Fang Wuxian said: "I still don't understand this. The qi and blood around my body have long been running smoothly, but I don't seem to have sensed any heaven and earth vitality. ”

"That's why I said you're stepping on the threshold. I have seen some qi martial artists, all of them first sense the vitality of heaven and earth, and then the flow of qi and blood will imitate the mechanism of heaven and earth, becoming more and more complete, and finally entering the fourth order. ”

Zhang Xiaoxiao pondered, "According to the book, not a third-order cultivator must be able to perceive the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi. The qi and blood around the body are full of energy, and the qi nourishes the muscles, bones, flesh and blood, and the cultivators are essentially different from ordinary people, so they call the fourth order the mortal realm. At this realm, the qi in the human body and the heaven and earth vitality outside the body will naturally echo, and they will naturally be able to sense the existence of the heaven and earth vitality. In other words, the transformation of qi and blood is a prerequisite for entering the fourth order, and perhaps you should have entered the mortal realm a long time ago, because the injury of the divine soul has become like this. As for your healing ability, I seem to have seen it in a book. ”

Fang Wuxian sighed bitterly: "Now this Su Su suspects what kind of wood spirit body I am. ”

Zhang Xiaoxiao nodded and said, "Yes, it seems to be talking about the body of the wood spirit, and the healing ability of the body is far beyond ordinary people." ”

Fang Wuxian said: "But later she said that I am not a wood spirit body, and I can't figure it out." ”

Zhang Xiaoxiao said: "When I have time, I will ask the masters, and there may be an explanation." ”

"Don't, don't tell anyone. I feel weird, as soon as you ask for advice, the relevant departments will treat me as a guinea pig again, won't it hurt me. ”

Fang Wuxian didn't dare to let Zhang Xiaoxiao ask others, not because he was worried about being used as a guinea pig, but because he thought of Mu Jun's super healing ability, he was afraid that something would be involved at that time, so it was better to wait for himself to investigate slowly.

"Master Zhang......"

"What do you call me?" Zhang Xiaoxiao frowned.

"That, didn't you say that a fourth-order mortal realm martial artist is already a master in the world? Wouldn't it be right for me to call you Master Zhang? ”

Zhang Xiaoxiao glanced at him, speechless by this guy.

"Master Zhang, I confirm what you said one by one, I found that the first four orders could not light a cigarette empty-handed, and you said that the fifth order Gang Qi Realm could release your strength, could it be that you have already broken through to the fifth order?"

"I almost broke through to the fifth order." Zhang Xiaoxiao shook her head and sighed: "There is no obvious threshold between the fourth and fifth orders, only the change in the use of strength. Fourth-order energy runs in the body, nourishing flesh and blood, muscles and bones, it is called qi energy, of course, there is also a saying that qi energy is called internal force, the power that is born from within. Very similar to the first and second orders, when a practitioner is skilled in running his qi, he can release his qi, and this qi circulates outside the body, which is called Gang Qi, which is also called True Qi. ”

Fang Wuxian suddenly said: "It turns out that the so-called Qi Circulation is the fifth order that I am talking about. Oh my god, the person who gave me this mask said that when I can circulate my qi, I can freely take off this mask, doesn't that mean that they are already a fifth-order Gang Qi realm master! It seems that fifth-order masters are not very rare, no wonder it is said that cultivating qi is the door to enter the cultivation. ”

Zhang Xiaoxiao glanced at him secretly, when he told about the past before, he did not elaborate on the source of the mask, but at this time, it was inadvertently revealed that the people who gave him the mask were actually two fifth-order Gang Qi Realm masters, which was really incomprehensible.

"Why do you call it almost breaking through to the fifth order?" Fang Wuxian asked again.

"As I said, to put it bluntly, the difference between the fifth and fourth orders is just the difference between the operation of the force. After fighting with Su Su, her Gang Qi broke into my body, although it was destroying the vitality in my body, but it also showed me the magic of Gang Qi running, my Qi and her Gang Qi fought in the body, in my home field, I had the power of flesh and blood as the foundation, and I was more and more brave in the battle, I could have used this as a temper to leap into the fifth order.

But at the critical moment, Su Yan was worried that I had something to save me, and that Gang Qi escaped into Su Yan's body and absorbed the power of his flesh and blood. I forcibly used my strength, and sucked that Gang Qi out of Su Yan's body, interrupting the tempering process, and it was difficult to enter that wonderful realm, so I almost broke through to the fifth order now. ”

Fang Wuxian said: "It's a pity to have this opportunity." ”

Zhang Xiaoxiao said: "It's nothing, I already know what the Gang Qi Realm is, and the real breakthrough must not be too far." Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to light a cigarette with a faint amount of gas. ”

Fang Wuxian asked: "What about the Gangqi Realm, what are you vaguely saying about the sixth-order innate realm, the seventh-order life and death realm, the eighth-order divine realm, and the ninth-order Baodan realm, what are the subtleties here?" ”

"Do you think I'm an encyclopedia? In terms of cultivation, I don't even have a master, how can I know so much, can I explain the first five realms, or because I have experienced all of them, have my own feelings, and want to know the back, either hurry up and practice and explore by myself, or when I reach the realm, I will naturally understand. ”
