Volume 1 Snowy Boy Chapter 121 The Nature of Cultivation
"Oops!" Just as Ling Yu and Su Luochen were talking, they suddenly heard Xiao Hei howl in pain. Ling Yu turned her head to look and found that Xiao Hei was rubbing his buttocks with both hands, rolling on the ground in pain.
"What's wrong with you?" Ling Yu didn't know why, he stepped up to Xiao Hei and asked with a smile. At first, he thought that Xiao Hei had been attacked by something to become like this, but when he saw Wu Dao covering his mouth and holding back a smile, he knew that Xiao Hei must have suffered on his own.
"Because he didn't have enough internal cultivation, he forcibly put his true qi on the soles of his feet, and of course he fell down heavily after floating up. You are a demon beast, and your cultivation method is different from that of humans, so you have to do everything according to your ability. Besides, you said that you are a bear, not staying honestly in the snowy region, why did you come to the cold and desolate city? Do you really want to contribute your Inner Dan by swaggering in and out of the Tianji Gate so swaggeringly?" Su Luochen sat at the stone table, took a sip of hot tea, a hint of banter flashed in his eyes, and said without looking back.
After Su Luochen finished speaking, not only Ling Yu, but even Wu Dao and Xiao Hei were stunned. Wu Dao's cultivation was already very high, and he didn't recognize Xiao Hei as a demon beast when he first saw him. And Su Luochen just glanced at it, and he could see Xiao Hei's body clearly, this kind of eyesight and cultivation is probably not something that ordinary people can do.
"Master, Xiao Hei didn't mean to hide it from you, he is a close friend of the apprentice, and I ask the master not to spread the word that he is a demon beast. "Ling Yu now has a deeper understanding of Su Luochen, this master seems to care about everything, but in fact, he has a furrow in his chest and a hidden belly. Even Ling Yu had a feeling that he might not be able to hide any secrets in front of this master. Moreover, Ling Yu dared to assert that Su Luochen's cultivation would not be lower than that of any of the other peaks, including Luo Hong.
"Don't worry, you are my disciple, and your friends are naturally my friends. Xiao Hei, if you are willing to stay, I can pass on to you a set of cultivation exercises for your demon clan. Su Luochen had a light and breezy expression, and whispered to Xiao Hei.
"Thank you, Senior Su. When Xiao Hei heard Su Luochen's words, he was naturally overjoyed, and even his usual treacherous and shameless behavior was restrained. The old man in front of him seems to be ordinary, but he is definitely a ruthless man, and he always looks indifferent to everything, which makes Xiao Hei a little stunned.
"Your cultivation is not bad, it seems that you should want to extract the remnants of the Heavenly Dao will from various exercises, right? But do you know that there are many exercises in the world, and ten thousand laws return to the sect. It seems that a hundred schools of thought are contending, but in fact it is nothing more than the five gates of monks, Taoists, laymen, ghosts, and demons. Instead of exhausting your efforts to search for hundreds of schools, it is better to start with these five doors. Moreover, it is not only the immortal-level exercises that have the will of the Heavenly Dao, if the third-rate fist and foot exercises are cultivated to the extreme, they can also be invincible in the world. Su Luochen turned his head to look at Wu Dao again and said softly.
These words made Wu Dao, who was originally in the mood of watching the excitement, wake up instantly, and he knew that he still underestimated the old man in front of him. Prior to this, Wu Dao had practiced countless exercises, from easy to difficult, from shallow to deep. It wasn't until later that he discovered that although there were many exercises with different trajectories of true qi flowing, they had the same effect when cultivated to the extreme. At first, he thought it was just a coincidence, but after listening to Su Luochen's words, he suddenly realized. He was sure that the martial arts realm and cultivation of the old man in front of him had reached a height that was beyond his reach.
So, Su Luochen only relied on a few words to leave Xiao Hei and Wu Dao behind. Su Luochen could see that although Xiao Hei was cunning and Wu Dao was unscrupulous, they were both friends of Ling Yu and had never been malicious towards Ling Yu. It was precisely because of this that Su Luochen decided to keep them.
With the arrival of the three of them, the originally desolate and silent Shaking Light Peak also gained a little more vitality out of thin air. Xiao Hei is a demon clan, his exercises are different, Wu Dao is knowledgeable, Ling Yu is talented, and Su Luochen is knowledgeable. Several people discussed martial arts together, showed exercises, smiled at the red dust, and lived a comfortable life. In particular, Su Luochen was very sensitive to the disadvantages of Hongchen Vientiane, and he was often able to grasp the most important point to analyze the sects and exercises in the Huaxia Continent, which benefited Ling Yu and the three of them a lot.
"Ling Yu, I know that you have an immortal-level technique, but with your current cultivation, you can't exert its greatest power at all. As for what immortal rank exercises you have, I'm not interested, it's your privacy. I have here a most common exercise, you take it and run it seven days a day as indicated, and then tell me what you think about it after a year. "The twilight will end, the bright moon will hang high, and several people will sit around the fire. Su Luochen took out a yellowed ancient book from his arms, handed it to Ling Yu, and said softly.
Hearing this, Ling Yu took the ancient book in Su Luochen's hand and looked at it intently. The ancient book looks to be some years old, the cover has been slightly damaged, and the pages have been yellowed by the wear of time. There are three ancient seal characters written on the ancient books: "Breath Jue".
"Senior Su, isn't this the lowest-level exercise in the cultivation world? Moreover, this is an ordinary entry-level breath method, I don't see anything bad. Xiao Hei glanced at the ancient book in Ling Yu's hand, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and asked with a smile.
"Really, how about you take a look at my "Breath Formula". After Su Luochen finished speaking, he sat cross-legged, his eyes slightly closed, and ran the "Breath Formula".
Ling Yu and the three of them could only hear the wind and thunder, and the roar of the river and the sea came from Su Luochen's body. The golden light seeped out of Su Luochen's body from every pore and attached to his body surface, reflecting Su Luochen like a god of war, domineering and invincible. It is like a god, glorious in Kyushu, majestic and inviolable. They had never imagined that an entry-level breathing method would have such power, and I am afraid that it was even better than some immortal-level exercises.
Su Luochen's actions deeply shocked the three of Ling Yu, making them feel that their previous cultivation was as childish and ridiculous as a child's play.
At this moment, Su Luochen raised his right hand and slowly rolled out a palm, only to see that the withered grass in front of him seemed to be blown by a breeze, trembling slightly. Then, suddenly, there was a thunderous crackling sound out of thin air, and the pile of dead grass instantly turned into powder and drifted away in the wind.
After doing all this, Su Luochen slowly opened his eyes. His expression was unwavering, as if he was doing a trivial matter.
"Master, this ...... Is it really the result of the Breath Formula?" Ling Yu asked in disbelief as he looked at the empty land in front of him. In his impression, only the supreme exercises would have such power, but today, Su Luochen's demonstration was beyond their understanding.
"Xiao Yu, let me ask you a question, there are already a lot of immortal-level exercises in this world, even heaven-level exercises, so why are there so many ordinary exercises? Isn't it better for everyone to practice immortal-level exercises? What is the meaning of these seemingly mediocre exercises?" Su Luochen stroked his white beard and asked softly.
"Because many sects cherish themselves and don't share the exercises against the sky, so there are a lot of ordinary exercises?" Ling Yu didn't know what Su Luochen meant by asking, so he could only ponder for a moment and said tentatively.
Actually, when a person's cultivation has reached a certain height, the exercises are just external objects, unless you have an extraordinary experience that can create your own invincible path, or if you are lucky enough to obtain the Heavenly Rank Exercises. Otherwise, the seemingly profound exercises will become fetters. When a person has reached the end of his practice, he has also embarked on the old path that the sage who created the path of law, and the path of cultivation is broken. Su Luochen looked at the bright moon in the sky and sighed softly.
Hearing Su Luochen's words, Ling Yu fell into deep thought. His master is right, the exercises are created by the ancestors, so what realm have these sages and sages who created the exercises have become, and the descendants will practice all the way along the exercises they created, and they will only catch up with those amazing predecessors all their lives, and will never be able to surpass them. Everyone in the red dust is chasing the peerless exercises left by their predecessors, but they are all scrambling to follow the old path that others have trodden. And when these people have cultivated the exercises to perfection and know that the road ahead is over, who can have such great courage to abolish their cultivation and break it and stand up? Even if they have that courage, I am afraid that they have already reached their twilight years, and time will not allow it.
"In fact, you don't have to look down on yourself too much. With your current state, you still need relatively advanced exercises to consolidate your cultivation. You are still young, and it is too early for you to say anything about the creation of the Fa. I'm just showing you a way, and that's what I've learned in seventy years. I can see that you are not a thing in the pool, and you can't just nest in Tianjimen for the rest of your life, you have a broader world to explore. So, I hope that when you are at the top one day, you will remember what I said, and don't lose yourself because of the so-called exercises. The invincible road is to walk out by yourself, not by following the path left by your predecessors. Su Luochen knew that his remarks were very unfamiliar to Ling Yu and the others, and it would take time for them to accept, Su Luochen didn't want to put pressure on Ling Yu, so he comforted softly.
"Master, what about the balance you just mentioned?" Ling Yu still had some doubts in his heart, since Su Luochen said that the exercises were all created by his predecessors, why would there be a distinction between grades?
"Balance means that everything in this world corresponds to each other, heaven and earth, yin and yang, light and dark. Heaven and earth are like this, let alone exercises. Immortal and even heaven-level exercises have always been in a state of balance with earth-level and ordinary exercises, this is an eternal truth, if one day this balance is broken, then this world will not exist. Su Luochen explained.
"Then why are you able to interpret an ordinary exercise as powerful and powerful as an immortal-level exercise?" Ling Yu asked suspiciously, thinking of Su Luochen's state of running the Breath Technique just now.
"This goes back to the distant primeval period, in the primeval period, there was a Fuxi Emperor, who had reached the end of the immortal road, was one of the three ancient emperors, and was respected by the world as the creator god. When the Emperor Fuxi ruled the world, there were dragons and horses carrying the 'river map' from the Yellow River and offering it to the Emperor Fuxi. Another turtle came out of Luoshui and carried the 'Luoshu' to him. Emperor Fuxi used the 'Hetu' and 'Luoshu' as the base to evolve the Taiji Bagua and balance Yin and Yang. And in the gossip there is a saying, called 'no Ji Tailai', which means that when something comes to an end, it will develop in the opposite direction. And the "Breath Technique" is an extremely ordinary exercise, and it has even been humble to the dust, and often the ultimate things will wander in the opposite direction at the end of cultivation, which is why an ordinary exercise has earth-shattering power. Su Luochen thought of the brilliant world of the primeval period, yearning for it, and said lightly.
"So, the balance of yin and yang is the beginning of this heaven and earth, the beginning of all things?" After listening to Su Luochen's words, Ling Yu had a trace of realization in his heart.
"Yes, it's the core of this universe!" Su Luochen's eyes flashed with a hint of approval, and he sighed leisurely.
