The day was about to dawn, and the misty sky light lit up from the meeting of water and sky in the east, and then it shone a little orange and yellow. Over time, the orange-yellow color spreads and becomes more and more intense, and the place where the water meets the sky becomes purple.

Purple Qi comes from the east, which is the best time for a day of practice. Li Jingxuan, who had been waiting here half an hour ago, took a long breath and incorporated the innate purple qi generated at the time of the rising and setting of the sun into his dantian, thus starting a new day of cultivation.

Boxing, practicing qi, reciting classics, studying words, writing and painting, this is Li Jingxuan's homework this day. Because he worshipped Xia Di as his teacher, he went to Xia Di whenever he had any difficult questions, and Xia Di also seriously answered all kinds of things he didn't know for him.

A few days have passed, and the ships have sailed thousands of miles on the ocean. And the closed nature of the ship itself also makes it easier for people to become familiar with and get used to each other.

Gradually, they all understood Li Jingxuan's behavior and became accustomed to everything he did on the foredeck of the ship, and they gradually became disapprehensive in their hearts. Everyone is used to it, and naturally no one goes to watch Li Jingxuan's actions. And Li Jingxuan's cultivation also gained a peace because of this. This tranquility allows him to think more and ponder more.

“...... Most of the Confucian classics talk about morality and the way of dealing with the world...... Although there are always many advanced theories in the subtle words, learning so many classics has not overflowed much except for making my mind more calm. Maybe I will read more than 10,000 books in the future, and I can understand something different from it, but not yet, I don't have enough time!" Li Jingxuan frowned distressedly.

Suddenly, he thought of something: "Didn't the martial arts novels of the previous life say that some exercises and techniques should be based on the Confucian mentality? Although the specifics of them may just be made up by novelists, there is quite some truth in the end. Maybe I can ask Ming Lingzi's seniors if he has any good suggestions. ”

Li Jingxuan thought so, and then awakened the spirit that existed in the depths of his dantian to warm and repair: "Senior, Ming Lingzi senior...... Are you still there?"

"What's the matter? Boy, you don't want to take some classic exercises out of my space again! Who said that now that you have advanced Qi and have lived for decades, you can't go on like this. You must know that exchanging essence and blood for books will not only consume your future life, but also your future potential. I think it's important for you to exercise moderation. The white-haired, white-bearded and small Ming Lingzi was directly connected to Li Jingxuan's consciousness, and he gave him a simple admonition in an old-fashioned manner.

"Moderation? I'll take care of it...... In fact, I am looking for you this time, not to take the exercises from you and give them to others, but because I have some doubts about the exercises and skills that I want to get answers from you. Li Jingxuan said earnestly: "Senior, you have been in this scripture cave for so long, you must be very familiar with the classics in the cave. I think you are the only one who can give me the answer to this question. ”

"It seems that you are in big trouble!" Hearing Li Jingxuan say this, Ming Lingzi laughed, and a little interest suddenly appeared on his small face: "Tell me, what problem have you encountered? Although I can't help you in battle, I am absolutely powerful in cultivation, so you can rest assured." Ming Lingzi patted his chest and assured Li Jingxuan.

"Well, I fully believe in the abilities of my predecessors...... That's why I'll ask my seniors for advice!" Li Jingxuan first gave Ming Lingzi a small sycophant, and then straightened up and talked about the problem he encountered: "Actually, this matter is like this......" Li Jingxuan opened his mouth to explain, telling Ming Lingzi the ins and outs of the whole thing, and even his own conjecture about the exercise skills, and at the same time made a plea to him: "If there are really similar exercises and skills, please let me read it." Just reading, with Li Jingxuan's current vitality, it can be completely supported, but there is no need to continue to consume his essence and blood life.

Just reading is a good idea for you. Hearing Li Jingxuan say this, Ming Lingzi nodded very understandingly, and then closed his eyes and became silent.

He was thinking and searching, after all, there were not afraid of tens of thousands of exercises and skills he mastered, and it was indeed not easy to find one that met Li Jingxuan's needs. It takes time.

Time passed in Li Jingxuan's waiting. After a while, Ming Lingzi completed the relevant index. He opened his eyes and told Li Jingxuan with a smile: "Good news for you, the exercises you need have already been settled." In view of the situation you are encountering at the moment, I recommend a set of sword techniques and a set of mental techniques to you. Although it is only a mediocre green-level exercise, it is completely enough for you who are still in the Qi Induction Realm. ”

"Oh, show me!" Li Jingxuan became a little anxious when he heard this.

"Now, that's it......

The name of the sword method is "Zhongyuan Sword Method", take the meaning of Zhongzheng and peace, occupy the meaning of Tianyuan, the sword method is flat and stable, there is no characteristic, just seek a stable word, the most suitable combination of your current practice of Confucian classics, you can let you wield the sword at the same time, cultivate your own a heroic qi - this is the most suitable with the Confucian method of vitality, for your future practice is also very beneficial.

As for the Mind Method, its name is "Meditation and Enlightenment Method", which is the method of developing the upper dantian. Its effect is just like the name of this exercise, which is to let you get rid of distracting thoughts, calm your mind, open up your wisdom, nourish the sea of knowledge, and develop the way of wisdom in your brain.

You obtained the original of the first volume of "Illusory Heaven Record" from the people of the Ancestral Spirit Palace, and you obtained the second volume of "Illusory Heaven Record" excerpt from Xia Di, it can be said that you have already understood most of the content of "Illusory Heaven Record", and you can imagine that you will inevitably embark on the path of cultivating the Illusion Path in the future.

The Illusion Dao is also an ancient avenue, its highest realm is illusory and real, but the power of condensing the false into reality is not under any inheritance today. It's just that the cultivation of the Illusion Path is not as easy as imagined. The illusion is to deceive others and deceive oneself. How to maintain a heart in the colorful illusion requires sufficient concentration. The Meditation and Enlightenment Method that I have passed on to you is an exercise that can help you in this regard – and this is a masterpiece. Ming Lingzi handed over the two exercises to Li Jingxuan, slowly displayed them in front of him, and explained them to him while showing them.

"Zhongzheng's peaceful swordsmanship and concentrating and calming the mind, developing the mental method of the brain domain?" Li Jingxuan muttered softly, thinking about the reason why Ming Lingzi handed over these two sets of exercises to himself, and his eyes lit up suddenly: "Yes, this is indeed the most suitable for me right now." With swordsmanship, I can 'fuse' my vitality and talent to a certain extent, making it useful in battle. With the Mental Method, I was able to work hard to practice the Illusion Path without being confused by the Illusion Path itself...... This is really good, thank you! senior!" Li Jingxuan politely thanked Ming Lingzi.

"You're welcome...... You are my host, and it is necessary for me to make you strong. Although your strength is still low now, it is impossible to fully use my ability, and I myself need to cultivate, and it is impossible to pay attention to you anytime and anywhere, but as long as you ask me, I will give you the answer as much as possible. ”

"Then I'll ...... now," Li Jingxuan asked again.

"You should practice the mind method first now, and try to get the mind method first. As for swordsmanship, you can wait for the introduction of the mental method, and then practice after you start practicing the illusion path. Ming Lingzi whispered to Li Jingxuan.

"Why do you want to do this?" Li Jingxuan was puzzled.

"Because then you'll be in for a surprise. Ming Lingzi said mysteriously.

"What surprise?" asked Li Jingxuan curiously.

"Hehe, you'll know when the time comes. Now, you should hurry up and hurry up, practice the mental method, and get the mental method started as soon as possible. Ming Lingzi didn't want to say more, but just urged Li Jingxuan to hurry up and cultivate the mental method. His impatient performance made Li Jingxuan a little difficult to understand.

"It's really a god's chatter!" Li Jingxuan shook his head, and didn't ask any more questions at the moment, but began to practice the mental method according to Ming Lingzi's request.

There are not many words in this mental method, and it is only three or five hundred words. After Li Jingxuan read it, he memorized it completely, and quickly pondered the meaning of it.

"That's what it looks like. As the saying goes, "fake ten thousand books, true one sentence", when Li Jingxuan memorized the mental method and fully understood the meaning, he felt that this mental method was not a mysterious thing.

"I always feel that this method of mind is a bit like self-hypnosis, and it is also a bit like the method of illusion cultivation. Li Jingxuan muttered quietly.

The mental method gave Li Jingxuan a bit strange - I originally thought it was rich in metaphysics and quite mysterious, but now it seems to be very straightforward.

How so?

In fact, this method of mind is divided into two parts: one is meditation and the other is enlightenment.

The route of enlightenment is somewhat famous, but it is to rotate the head according to some fixed trajectory of vitality, move and massage, and develop the brain domain by stimulating the acupoints and meridians.

And meditation? It's really simple and crude. What Li Jingxuan said is very similar to "self-hypnosis, and it is very similar to the cultivation method in the illusion path" is exactly what he said -- what method do you use to contemplate ideas!

In fact, it is self-hypnosis, thinking of something in the mind that can calm oneself. Of course, these things range from simple to complex. After all, at the beginning of your cultivation, you can't think about something that is too big. You know, you're a newbie. Thinking so complicated at once, not afraid to break through? So, even if you want to self-hypnosis, you can only do it step by step.

Li Jingxuan understands this truth very well. In fact, that's what he did.

Cultivating the mind requires meditation, but how to calm the mind? Li Jingxuan thought of ice. He was thinking that another piece of ice was clinging to the door of my head, and I was so cold that I was stirred, and my original chaotic thoughts would definitely dissipate quickly.

Meditation is how it should be.

Li Jingxuan practices according to the law!
