Chapter 4: The Altar of Eccentricity
Seeing that Lin Li had such a heart, Lin Zhenying was relieved, "Very good, worthy of being a descendant of my Lin family, then I will tell you about the cultivation and listen carefully." ”
"According to our Lin family's cultivation lineage, you should have started cultivating your foundation from the time you were born, and then slowly guided by your elders and gradually embarked on the path of cultivation, but because you were infected with Gu poison in your mother's womb, because of the green lotus seed, the Gu poison in your body was controlled, so I didn't rush to let you practice, for fear of breaking the balance in your body, causing you to miss the best moment of cultivation. ”
"Although there are definitely advantages to cultivating since childhood, there are also many cultivators who are halfway monks, and you don't have to worry too much, after all, there is still an old man, I am here, at least in the three realms of body refining, I can still help you a lot." ”
If ordinary people want to cultivate the truth, the first step must go through the body refinement, and only after the body refining is successful, can they truly enter the ranks of cultivators to be qualified to formally practice.
And this refining period is divided into three realms, namely the enlightenment realm, the fusion realm, and the fetal breath realm, which correspond to the upper dantian at the center of the human eyebrow, the middle dantian at the heart socket, and the lower dantian at three inches below the umbilicus.
The three realms of refining the body are actually the three dantians of the human body to refine the meridians, enhance the blood qi, and strengthen the physical body, so as to open the treasure house of the human body, so that the strength of the body can reach the point where it is suitable for cultivation.
Therefore, the three realms of refining the body are the foundation of the cultivator's cultivation, and the more firmly the foundation of the refining realm is laid, the faster the spiritual energy absorbed after entering the qi training period, the purity of the spiritual power will be greatly improved, which can be described as one step at a time.
Because everyone's talent and physique are different, some people have special physiques and are gifted to practice for thousands of miles, and some people are not good at physique, but they can still achieve something by relying on acquired efforts, so the general Xiuzhen family will start cultivating when the younger generation is just born.
A normal ordinary person has been cultivated since birth, and if it is normal, it should break through the Enlightenment Realm and enter the Fusion Realm before the age of six, and at the worst, it should also break through before the age of ten.
Because the accumulation of the meridians in the human body in the early years is almost not easy to break through, and some people are born with meridian blockages, of course, this is another matter, and then at the age of twelve, break through the realm of fusion, and after breaking through the fetal breath at the age of eighteen, you can truly embark on the path of cultivation and become a member of the cultivators.
Of course, some people have poor talent and poor physique, and this kind of person is the most unlucky, and they must break through the fetal breath realm before the age of thirty, because as they grow older, the bones and meridians of the human body are growing on their own, and by the age of thirty, they have all been completely shaped and cannot be changed, unless they take some natural treasures.
And Lin Li's situation was special, due to the Gu poison, he had missed the golden time for refining his body, so he had to cultivate to the Fetal Breath Realm before the age of thirty, otherwise, the backlash of the Blue Lotus Seed would become more and more serious, and his life would be endangered at any time.
"After the great war a thousand years ago, the aura of heaven and earth dissipated, and the earth officially entered the era of the end of the law, and after the war, the only remaining cultivators who participated in the war all flew to the spiritual realm, and the rest were not qualified to participate in the station and cultivate as low-level cultivators, so that war is still a mystery to this day. ”
"Nowadays, the lack of spiritual energy on the earth is extremely serious, and there are very few people who can cultivate, and most of the few remaining immortal cultivators rely on the blessed land cave left by the ancestors to survive, and the cave you are in now is arranged by the Lin family for the next generation to practice. ”
"From the Lin family's generation to your generation, it has been passed down for thirteen generations, although the Lin family's generation also left a lot of cultivation resources before they ascended, but thousands of years have passed since now, and there are very few resources left. Lin Zhenying told Lin Li about the current environment of the Earth Cultivation Realm and the situation that Lin Li needed to know.
Lin Li listened to Lin Zhenying's words for a long time, and before he could talk about how to start practicing, he coughed a few times.
Lin Zhenying understood what Lin Li meant, and scolded with a smile: "What are you in a hurry about, this kid, the next thing is the point, ordinary people want to get started, they must first cultivate and refine the body, that is, what I just said is the three realms of refining the body, these three realms are enlightenment, fusion, and fetal breath." ”
And these three realms correspond to the upper dantian at the center of the eyebrows, the middle dantian at the heart socket, and the lower dantian at three inches below the umbilicus. ”
"The earth has entered the era of the end of the law, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has dissipated, and this three realms of refining body is originally the first threshold for mortal cultivation, but now this threshold has become a chasm that is difficult to cross. ”
"In a while, I will help you open the upper dantian at the center of your eyebrows for casting spells, of course, all this still depends on you, I can only play a supporting role. ”
After speaking, Lin Zhenying glanced at Lin Li and leaked an unfathomable smile, Lin Zhenying didn't know that his smile directly destroyed his image in Lin Li's mind, because Lin Li felt that he was smiling very thief.
Lin Li knew that it would be the moment to witness the miracle, this would be the most important moment in his life, this may be the turning point of his fate, if he succeeded, he would get rid of his fate and experience a different life from now on, if he failed, he would continue to live a hard life, maybe that day he would be tossed by that Qinglian seed.
Lin Li took two deep breaths and began to adjust his mentality, trying to calm himself down, he was ready to meet the most important moment of his life in his best state.
When Lin Li adjusted his mentality, Lin Zhenying on the side also began to get busy, taking out a strange brush made of rosewood from the big bamboo basket behind his back and drawing something behind a yellow talisman.
Ji then said to Lin Li with a serious and solemn expression on his face: "Later, you must not do what I tell you, you must be highly concentrated in the process, and you must not be distracted." ”
After speaking, Lin Zhenying handed Lin Li the Taoist talisman that had just been drawn, and then took out a small porcelain bottle from the big bamboo basket and handed it to Lin Li, Lin Li saw that Lin Zhenying was so serious, and he didn't dare to be careless, so he solemnly stepped forward and took what Lin Zhenying handed him.
After Lin Li took over the things, Lin Zhenying taught Lin Li another set of luck methods, and instructed Lin Li a lot of things to pay attention to for a while, and then sat down cross-legged and began to prepare to cast spells.
Lin Li repeatedly practiced the luck method taught by Lin Zhenying several times, and felt that he could use it proficiently, and recalled in his mind a few times the matters that Lin Zhenying asked him to pay attention to, and then according to Lin Zhenying's instructions, he came to the Yin and Yang Taiji diagram in the center of the Five Elements Gathering Spirit Array and sat down cross-legged, at this time, Lin Zhenying outside the Five Elements Gathering Spirit Array was also ready, and when he saw Lin Li sitting cross-legged, he gestured to Lin Li and said that he could start.
Lin Li opened the small porcelain bottle and poured out a dark red round pill the size of a fingernail, and when he held it in his hand, Lin Li smelled the fragrance of the pill.
Without hesitation, he directly put the pill in his mouth, and then according to the luck exercise taught by Lin Zhenying, he spit out and sprayed it on the pill, and then gently touched the pill with the tip of his tongue, and the pill turned into a stream of essence and drilled into Lin Li's throat at the moment when he was touched by his tongue, Lin Li hurriedly used the luck method to control this essence and lead it to his eyebrows.
However, the muscles and veins in the body were extended in all directions, Lin Li had deviated several times, and he broke out in a cold sweat in a hurry, fortunately, Lin Zhenying explained the position of the meridians to Lin Li from time to time outside the big array, and stumbled all the way, and finally Lin Li successfully brought this essence to the upper dantian in the center of his eyebrows.
Seeing that Lin Li had successfully introduced the essence into the Upper Dantian Five Elements Spirit Gathering Array, Lin Zhenying immediately began to do so, only to see Lin Zhenying, who was sitting outside the Spirit Gathering Array, take out eight pieces of rune paper from his arms and sprinkle them into the air, and then with a wave of his hand, the rune paper in the air turned into eight spiritual lights and flew into the eight stone statues in the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Array.
Then, his hands were sealed, and his technique changed in an instant, and he read the law in his mouth.
"Liujia and nine chapters, the sky is round and the place is round, the sun and the moon are the light, the value of the symbol is dry, the beetle snake is Kun, the Taiyin is shocked, the six positions are Xun, the white tiger is in the Kan, the nine status is separated, the nine status is Gen, the nine heavens are in the position, and the eight gods are in the formation with me, the walker is happy, the user is blessed, the five elements are from me, the urgency is like the law, and the five elements gather the spirit array. ”
With his last drink, he saw that the eight stone statues in the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Array suddenly emitted a strange light, under the blessing of this light, these eight stone statues were lifelike, as if they were alive, and the outermost five strange boulders of the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Array all emitted a strange light, shooting towards Lin Li, and the five strange lights converged and fused into a huge black hole above Lin Li's head.
At this time, the Yin and Yang Taiji diagram sitting under Lin Li's buttocks in the center also began to rotate wildly, turning into a black hole, and Lin Li, who was sitting on it, slowly floated up, located in the middle of the two black holes.
Outside the valley, the bright moon still hung high in the sky, and the originally dark valley became clearly visible under its glorious illumination.
In the middle of the valley, a smooth disc-shaped boulder suddenly vibrated and began to spin at high speed, then turned into a black hole vortex, and a bush of grass next to the vortex suddenly fluctuated, and then slowly floated out of it a light cyan aura.
As soon as this aura flew out, it was instantly absorbed by the black hole vortex next to it, and the grass that was still dense suddenly fell down after losing its cyan aura, and then all the flowers, trees, rats, insects, snakes and ants in the valley came out with colorful mottled aura.
The black hole vortex suddenly swept away the colorful mottled aura in the form of a tornado, and the creatures that lost their aura were immediately deprived of their breath, and a moment later the valley turned into a Jedi, withering and extinct living beings, and the ground was full of withered and yellow vegetation.
In the Five Elements Gathering Spirit Array, Lin Li, according to Lin Zhenying's instructions, knew that the next link was also quite important, he didn't dare to slack off at all, he hurriedly picked up the yellow talisman and pasted it between his eyebrows, fixed this essence, and then stood the worn-out bronze bottle cup on top of his head, his hands were sealed, and his eyes floated with the small words behind the Dao talisman between his eyebrows, and he read it aloud.
"Danzhu is a god in his mouth, spit out filth and remove the atmosphere, his tongue is upright, and he lives and nourishes his gods. Luo Qianzhi God, Throat God Tiger Ben, Qi God Yinjin, Heart God Dan Yuan, make me understand the truth, think about the spirit of refining liquid, and the Tao Qi lasts forever. ”
After reading it, Lin Li began to change and form a handprint, and at this time, a grain of faint spiritual light flew out of the black hole above Lin Li's head, including light cyan, blood red, forest cyan and other colorful mottled spiritual light flying out of the black hole.
Then, the worn-out bronze bottle cup above Lin Li's head suddenly emitted a strange light, and the spiritual light flying out of the black hole was attracted by the strange light emitted by the worn-out bronze bottle cup, and then it was absorbed by the worn-out bronze bottle cup.
Then, four blood-colored runes slowly appeared on the bronze bottle, and in an instant, the mixed spiritual light inhaled into a stream of colorless pure spiritual energy poured into the upper dantian between Lin Li's eyebrows.
Lin Li felt a warm current surging from the top of his head to his eyebrows, he knew that the critical moment had come, it was all a little trick before, and now it was the main thing.
Immediately after that, his hands made the last mudra, his eyes were closed, and he recited the final decision: "Heaven and earth are natural, the filth is scattered, the cave is mysterious, and the sun is too yuan." The gods of the eight directions, make me natural, Lingbao talismans, proclaim nine days, God loses his position, knows the sea and the spiritual land, open!"
When Lin Li shouted the last word, the stone statues of the Eight Deceitful Gods in the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Array all emitted a strange light and shot into Lin Li's eyebrows, and Lin Li found that there were suddenly eight more strange lights in his eyebrows, forming a strange net, and the big net locked the aura and essence in it to prevent it from being dispersed.
Lin Li could feel that the big net was constantly compressing these pure aura, as if he wanted to compress these aura, but there was still a steady stream of aura pouring into the net above, resisting the big net, and the eight stone statues in the Five Elements Gathering Spirit Array were also continuously injecting strange light into the upper dantian between Lin Li's eyebrows, so the two sides began to fight desperately with the upper dantian as a battlefield, and poor Lin Li could only grit his teeth and insist.
Lin Li has been possessed by the green lotus seed for thirteen years, although he is often absorbed from life, but every time he absorbs Lin Li's life, there will be a little energy left behind, which imperceptibly affects Lin Li, so Lin Li's physique has also become better than ordinary people, and he can accommodate more aura.
And Lin Li's extraordinary endurance in the past thirteen years, often tossing and turning the green lotus seed, so that he has been working hard to support, the fight between the two sides has reached the last moment, and Lin Li is also dizzy, his eyes are full of golden flowers, he can't hold on, and finally the upper dantian reaches saturation, and can no longer tolerate a trace of aura, and the big net also locks the aura, and the entire upper dantian is supported like a big leather ball at this moment.
Lin Li saw that the upper dantian had finally reached fullness, so he immediately bit his fingers and dotted the blood on the yellow Dao talisman at the center of his eyebrows, and the Dao talisman instantly turned into a yellow aura and slowly merged into the upper dantian between Lin Li's eyebrows.
And this yellow aura is the last straw that overwhelmed the camel, and it can also be said to be the last fire that ignited the upper dantian, sure enough, as soon as the yellow aura entered the forest of upper dantian, it collided violently with the original two forces, directly causing a big explosion, and the forest of upper dantian directly exploded into flowers.
The severe pain of the explosion of the upper dantian almost made Lin Li faint directly, but Lin Li still persevered because he wanted to witness this miraculous moment with his own eyes, the explosion of the upper dantian at the center of his eyebrows slowly disappeared, and there was a milky white vortex in the center of the explosion slowly formed, at this moment, Lin Li could clearly feel that he had succeeded.
