Chapter 9: Gathering Spirit

Everyone returned to the room, but this night was destined not to be peaceful, Chen Jing picked up the "Shangqing Jue" in his hand, and there was only one line at the beginning: "The one who is angry, the spirit of heaven and earth, the one who is light and light rises to the sky, and the one who is heavy and turbid condenses to the ground... One breath and one inhalation, the aura of heaven and earth is used to refine the body and mind, and the heaven and earth are created."

The whole book is only 500 words, Chen Jing read it carefully, and roughly understood the meaning, that is, to introduce the so-called aura into the body, three inches below the umbilicus condensed, when the aura condensed and formed, it is considered to be the entry, this stage is also called the qi gathering realm.

Fantasy is useless, Chen Jing immediately followed the book, crossed her legs, sat upright, calmed down, breathed slowly, and felt the so-called aura into the body.

Knock, knock, knock, the bell to get up rang, Chen Jing opened her hazy eyes, opened the window next to her, a cool breeze blew, the night had not faded, the lights in the distance were lit up, everyone got up, work what should work, and cultivate what should be cultivated.

Chen Jing quickly freshened up and followed the other three towards the medicine field.

Yesterday was far away, Chen Jing and the others could only smell the faint fragrance of herbs, but today they got closer, and the taste was naturally much stronger, Chen Jing took a deep breath, and the medicinal fragrance quickly filled the internal organs, and the sleepiness was swept away.

I thought that as a disciple of the sect, I could watch the herbs that the gods liked up close, but I was still a hundred meters away from being drunk by the gatekeeper, it turned out that unless someone at the level of an elder or above agreed, they were not allowed to approach the medicine field, and the offender was expelled from the sect. Chen Jing and the others had to retreat stupidly and came to the grocery room, at this time, there were already other senior brothers who took buckets and walked out, politely said hello to people one by one, also took out buckets, and walked towards Baixi together.

"I'll talk about a few, did you read "Shangqing Jue" last night? Zhang Ming started talking. Seeing that everyone nodded, he asked again, "Then have you tried it according to the method in the book?" ”

"Absolutely. Liu Ren took over and said, "But I don't know when I fell asleep while practicing, and when I woke up, it was almost dawn." "Me too, haha. Liu Yi continued.

"I thought I was alone in my sleep. Chen Jing said.

Everyone laughed.

"Looks like everyone is the same. Zhang Ming sighed with emotion, stopped talking, and walked forward quickly.

"What's wrong with Zhang Ming, how dejected. ”

"I don't know. Ignore him, hurry up and go back to cultivation. Liu Yi said.

Several people are also teenagers, and they don't want to delve into it, so they quickly follow Zhang Ming.

Passing through the paths, passing through the trees, the sound of the rushing water came, and when you got closer, the water flowed down from a height of tens of meters, and there were bursts of white mist on the water surface, the stream water was crystal clear, and occasionally you could see a few small fish swimming in the air, maybe the name of Baixi came from that.

Everyone lined up to get water, carrying the water and walking back together, except for Chen Jing and a few other newcomers who occasionally laughed a few words, the others were all walking with their heads buried in their heads, several newcomers wanted to ask a few senior brothers for advice on the method of cultivation, but they didn't want to be ignored at all, a few people were puzzled, they were all young people, could it be that they had practiced for a long time and even lost their human touch, or practiced stupidly.

Later, a kind-hearted senior brother told them that most of the foreign affairs disciples had not succeeded in gathering qi, and the age of sixteen was a hurdle, and if they did not succeed in gathering qi, they would not succeed in this life, and they would be expelled from the sect at that time, and in addition to daily labor, they would not have much time to cultivate, but as long as they completed the prescribed amount of labor, they could go back early. So it's even more timeless.

Everyone knew this, Chen Jing was shocked, I will be 16 years old in half a year, will I become like them, think about it, I can't help but walk faster.

Because the sect has a specified workload, a certain amount of work must be completed before they can go back, according to the arrangement given to them by the sect, they need to fill their corresponding water tanks, about ten trips back and forth, according to their speed, a trip takes an hour, when Chen Jing and the four of them completed the work task, it was completely dark, after dinner, everyone silently, dragged their tired bodies back to their respective bedrooms, really tired and didn't want to talk.

Chen Jing saw that there was still a period of time before he went to sleep, and the ninja took out the "Shangqing Jue" from under the pillow in pain, although the full text was only a few hundred words, and he knew it by heart, but if he wanted to cultivate, he always felt that he was looking at flowers in the fog, and something was missing. It's useless to think too much, so let's ask the senior brothers tomorrow if they have any cultivation secrets. With that, he bent over and fell asleep beautifully.

The next day, Chen Jing found that she had too much work yesterday, and Rao was physically strong, and it was inevitable that she was extremely sore, but she still endured the pain and went out to work with her brothers and classmates. Because of the experience of the first day, I was familiar with the road, said hello to the few senior brothers I met, picked up the bucket and walked to Baixi. Knowing that I needed to ask my brother for advice today, a few guys quickly completed the task regardless of the pain in their bodies, and when they saw that it was not time to go to bed, they walked forward to greet a few senior brothers who had completed the task, and handed water and beat their backs, but no one was willing to talk to them, put down the objects in their hands and left.

The last senior brother surnamed Zhao ran slowly, and was pulled down by everyone.

"Senior Brother Zhao, you can do it, tell us. ”

"Senior Brother Zhao, my father gave me some excellent gold sore medicine, cultivators will inevitably bump into it, I will use it for you. ”

"Senior brother, how is it, I have specially practiced this technique, which is very helpful for muscle and bone pain, what do you think?"

This Senior Brother Zhao was also unable to be entangled, and said, "A few junior brothers, in fact, it's okay to ask your senior brother in charge." ”

"We wanted to, too, but after Senior Brother Li brought us here on the first day, he told us to come and work on time every day, and we disappeared. Zhang Ming said.

Seeing that he really couldn't run, Senior Brother Zhao was not ambiguous, and said: "You know, I'm just like you, an ordinary person who hasn't gathered energy, but I just came a year earlier than you, and for cultivation, although I taught it once in the square after the sect master came out of the customs last year, but in the past year, I still can't enter the third stage that the sect master said." ”

"What the third stage. ”

Through the explanation of the senior brother surnamed Zhao, it turns out that before the Qi Gathering Realm, it is commonly known as the Qi Gathering Realm from ordinary to entry, and there are three steps to cultivate to gather Qi, which is simply summarized as relaxation, stability, and quietness.

Loose is to relax the whole body, use all the body and mind to feel everything around you, on the basis of the whole body relaxation, keep the artistic conception stable, and slowly feel the aura between heaven and earth. When you can do it, as long as you keep your mind in one place, there is nothing outside your mind, that is, the state of tranquility, and you will not be far from gathering qi.

After listening to it, everyone was suddenly enlightened, and it didn't sound difficult.

Senior Brother Zhao didn't forget to pour cold water on everyone before leaving, "Sounds easy, right, but don't forget, many losers think the same way." ”

Yes, if it was so easy to succeed, why were there so many people who couldn't cultivate? But now that we know what to do next, it's better than blind cultivation.

Cultivation is not easy, but the daily burden is even more overwhelming.

During the day, it is a lot of work, and at night, as soon as I close my eyes and fall into bed, the sky will be bright. After half a month like this, when everyone was barely able to adapt to this kind of exercise and was able to spare a little time to cultivate, they heard a surprising news.

It is said that Chen Jing's group should have five people, except for the Liu family brothers, Zhang Ming, and Chen Jing himself, only Zhang Liang did not appear, when everyone thought that he left for some reason, Zhang Ming met him when he went to the Ling Pavilion to buy medicine.

According to what he said, his father helped him buy off Zhao Fu, that is, the deputy sect master, and now he doesn't have to participate in the work like the big guys, but cultivates with the outer disciples of the Qi Gathering Realm, and he enters the realm quickly, and he will definitely be able to gather Qi in less than half a year.

This is not the most important thing, he said, one of the reasons why the sect recruits so many foreign disciples every year is naturally that there are many people looking for good seedlings, and the other reason is that the sect has many external industries and needs people to help take care of them, and we foreign affairs disciples are the best human resources, and the bad thing to say is free coolies.

In fact, everyone knows the bottom of this point, but no one will object, who doesn't want to be lucky? As long as they can cultivate, what if they succeed?

Everyone was silent after listening to Zhang Ming's words, yes, as long as they can cultivate, free coolies will be free coolies, as long as they are successful in cultivation, everything is worth it.
