Although the dantian was sealed, Ma Xie's spiritual power could operate normally.

In order to temporarily enhance his strength, Ma Xie could only find a way to improve his spiritual power to an extreme.

Ma Xie's goal is to make himself a fifth-order formation mage in the period of fire and water.

This crazy idea has been in his heart for a long time.

Since it is difficult for his physical body to break through, if he wants to go to the end in the ultimate dragon slayer assessment, then he must have the strength to ask the Dao realm.

And this kind of strength can only be possessed by a fifth-order array mage.

"My spiritual power has already reached the limit of a fourth-order array mage, but why can't I reach the level of a fifth-order array mage for a long time?" Ma Xie pondered this question: "Isn't it really impossible to break through to the furnace level?"

"My Sutra of Contemplation, no matter how it works, cannot further materialize this golden Buddha, and I think this is where the problem lies. ”

The big Buddha in the sea of horse evil consciousness already has a golden body, but it is only a phantom.

At this moment, Ma Xie has cultivated the "Guanxing Sutra" to the fourth layer, that is, he can simulate the fourth painting in the sea of knowledge.

Ma Xie took out the fifth layer of painting and began to think about it carefully.

There are two people in the painting, one is a master and the other is a craftsman.

The painting tells a simple story about a craftsman who saw that the Buddha statue in the temple was broken and took tools to repair it.

The master asked, "Why did you come?"

"I'm here to practice Buddhism. ”

"The Buddha doesn't need to cultivate, he first cultivates himself. ”

Ma Xie carefully savored the meaning of this story.

At this moment, he, like the craftsman, wants to repair the broken Buddha statue.

But the master said, "The Buddha doesn't need to cultivate, he first cultivates himself." ”

Ma Xie condensed his divine consciousness in front of the golden Buddha statue, gazing at the Buddha statue like an ascetic.

"The Buddha doesn't need to cultivate, he first cultivates himself. ”

The golden Buddha statue was silent, but Ma Xie felt that he was watching him deeply.

"What exactly is a Buddha?"

Ma Xie suddenly thought that he had never thought about this question before.

Before he came to the Jin Kingdom, he didn't know what a "monk" was.

Later, when he was in the Jin Kingdom, he learned that the monks were all followers of Buddhism.

This mystical religion, born in the southwest, has a history that is almost comparable to that of Taoism.

They pay attention to the cultivation of "Buddha", and regard "Buddha" as the end of their practice, which is the supreme realm.

In history, there have been several "Buddhas", all of whom are great and powerful.

However, Ma Xie has never seen a "Buddha", or even an image of a "Buddha", so how can he meditate on a Buddha statue in his own sea of consciousness?

Rao is like this, whenever Ma Xie thinks of "Buddha", there is always a vague shadow in his heart.

It seems that this Buddha has always existed in his sea of consciousness from the past to the present, and he is extremely familiar with him, but now he cannot see his true face.

"I have never seen a Buddha, but when I meditated on the prototype of this Buddha statue, I did not draw on any prototype of the Buddha statue, so why do I still think that this virtual image is familiar to me?"

The Sutra of Contemplation is originally a classic of Buddhism.

When everyone has reached this point in their practice, they must meditate on the "Buddha" in their own mind.

Ordinary Buddhist monks need to meditate on the "Buddha" they believe in.

Visualizing different Buddhas will have different abilities.

However, Ma Xie did not have faith, he just regarded the Sutra of Meditation as a method of cultivating spiritual power.

It is simply impossible for him to visualize a revered Buddha.

"The Buddha doesn't need to cultivate, he first cultivates his own ......"

Ma Xie's mouth kept recalling this sentence.

On top of the blood-colored lotus, the golden Buddha shadow gradually condensed into a face.

Ma Xie looked at the face of the Buddha and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

The face of the golden god Buddha statue is no different from the face of Ma Xie.

"Cultivating Buddha and cultivating Buddha, why should I cultivate me if I am not a monk, I still cultivate myself!"

Ma Xie paid attention to it in his heart and visualized his image.

And the lotus flower at the foot of the golden body has also changed into a Dapeng bird at this moment.

From this moment on, Ma Xie completely turned the "Guanxing Sutra" of Lei Yin Temple into his own practice.

He didn't know if anyone had done this before, maybe not, because the people who were able to learn the Sutra were devout Buddhist disciples, and no one would observe their own image.

The golden man in the sea of knowledge has a face similar to Ma Xie, and the shape of his body gradually becomes similar to Ma Xie.

"I'm not a Buddhist, so I don't have to meditate and chant. ”

Ma Xie thought like this, and the golden body he visualized gradually changed.

A long sword appeared in the hand of the golden body, and it was the domineering fire of the horse evil.

And the posture of holding the sword is exactly the posture of Ma Xie when he held the sword for the first time!

Six sword intents flew into Ma Xie's sea of consciousness and surrounded the golden body.

"This posture, this is my 'potential'?"

This is the first time Ma Xie has seen him holding a sword, and he can see that this is the "potential" that he will condense in the future!

Ma Xie could see that his "potential" could perfectly fuse the sword intent of the six white ape swordsmanship and the sword intent of an earthy line.

The seven sword intents hovered around the "potential", as if they were commanded by the golden-bodied horse evil.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ma Xie once again tried to contact the "dot" character with the other four sword intents that had been fused.

While deducing his sword intent, he made his golden body more and more accurate.

The spiritual power in the sea of knowledge gradually converged, and all of them were concentrated on the golden-bodied horse evil.

"I am the Word, and the Word is me. ”

In Ma Xie's heart, he began to pursue his own "Tao".

The White Ape Sword Technique, the Xuanyang Nine Life Decision, the Xiaoxiang Sword Technique, or other exercises of the Horse Evil Society.

These are just "techniques" that he wants to master.

These things are not the root of the horse evil.

"My root is myself, my 'Tao'. ”

When this thought arose, Ma Xie suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment.

He no longer has to be obsessed with integrating the Xiaoxiang swordsmanship into the white ape swordsmanship or integrating the white ape swordsmanship into the Xiaoxiang swordsmanship, because this is just a "technique" when he fights.

What Ma Xie wants is a kind of "Tao", a kind of "Tao" that only belongs to himself.

He looked at his golden body, which was his innate sword-holding posture.

That posture contained his most essential understanding of the sword.

"Hold on to the hilt of your sword, keep your eyes on the front, and be ready to attack. Ma Xie slowly recalled how he felt when he first held the sword.

It was a very distant and unclear memory.

That's how he used his sword when he first took it.

Short stabs, simple flat slashes, simple blocks......

Ma Xie gradually recalled what he looked like when he was four years old and began to practice swordsmanship, which was the earliest form of his swordsmanship, and it was the earliest swordsmanship he learned!

"I understand that swordsmanship is just an appearance, no matter what swordsmanship, it is just some coherent movements, and the purpose of the sword is fundamental. ”

There is no sword for no reason, even if it is the first sword of Ma Xie, there is a clear goal.

Sword intent is the high degree of condensation of these sword moves, the will of swordsmanship, and the will of swordsman.

Ma Xie's perception of sword intent accelerated the integration of Braille into the other four swordsmanship.

And his golden figure is becoming clearer and clearer.

The golden-bodied horse evil gradually absorbed those sword intents, including another ethereal sword intent.

At this time, the golden-bodied horse evil suddenly melted.

It turned into a huge spiritual power, and it was once again filled with the sea of consciousness of the horse evil.

This time, the spiritual power in the sea of knowledge is really like an ocean, and it begins to stir and surge.

When the sea of knowledge expanded again, the Taiji stone appeared in the sea of knowledge.

Ma Xie was very surprised, because since the formation of this Taiji Stone, hasn't it been staying in the dantian?

After the Taiji Stone entered the Sea of Knowledge, all the spiritual power was concentrated around the Taiji Stone.

On the side of Yin Shi, he began to absorb the spiritual power of Ma Xie.

Ma Xie hurriedly repeated his old tricks, condensed his golden statue, and wanted to suppress Zhihai.

But it was all in vain.

Because Tai Chi Shi and Ma Xie had already fused into one, how could he use himself to suppress himself?

However, after the Taiji Stone absorbed the spiritual power for a period of time, it stopped absorbing it.

Then, the Taiji Stone began to spin rapidly, and once again exuded a pure power.

These powers were supplemented into the spiritual power, and Ma Xie found that these pure powers seemed to be highly condensed spiritual powers.

He used these spiritual powers to recondense a golden statue.

For example, Fang Cai's Zhangxu Jinren is much smaller, only one foot in size.

Ma Xie's heart moved, and the small man shrank again, becoming only three inches in size, and this villain and Ma Xie had exactly the same appearance, holding a long sword in his hand.

However, the spiritual power contained in this villain is several times stronger than that of the talented Jin man.

"That's my sense. ”

Ma Xie said secretly in his heart.

The villain sat in the sea of knowledge, and the Taiji Stone also flew to him, slowly spinning, and continued to absorb and condense the spiritual power of the horse evil.

At this time, Liu Zongxuan, who was staying outside, couldn't close his mouth in surprise.

Because in the heavy formations arranged by Zhuge Ruzhi, golden light is constantly emitted.

These golden lights shot straight into the sky, and a golden-bodied swordsman gradually condensed in the sky.

"Is that Ma Xie? He broke through?" Liu Zongxuan said puzzled.

Ma Xie naturally broke through, and his spiritual power finally made a major breakthrough and reached the fifth order.

However, at this moment, Ma Xie is not a fifth-order formation mage, because he still hasn't touched the edge of the "Dao", so he is not a real fifth-order formation mage.

"Next, it's time to see if you can touch the 'Tao'. ”

Ma Xie opened his eyes and looked at the heavy formation in front of him.

Enlightenment is a lonely and difficult journey.

There is no one, no exercises to guide you, so you can only rely on yourself to find it.

Asking, asking, is such a process of constant searching.

Ma Xie walked out of Zhuge Ruzhi's formation, and Liu Zongxuan was already waiting for him there.

"Did you break through?"

"Of course. ”

Ma Xie stretched out his hand, and a ball of pure spiritual power appeared in his hand.
