Chapter 47: The Mysterious Realm (I)

The atmosphere here is so eerie, even in broad daylight, you can still feel a trace of coolness. But this feeling is different from the coldness that Qin Xiaoling released countless resentful souls at that time, although it was gloomy, it did not have the feeling that made people feel cold in the bottom of their hearts.

Fortunately, none of the three of them cared about this little gloomy, but the inexplicable corpse and the atmosphere here aroused Qin Yifan's interest, and he wanted to get to the bottom of it here.

At this time, you can see the different characteristics of the three people. Qin Xiaoling walked on the grass, although she didn't seem to be focused, but if she looked closely, she didn't seem to care about anything on the ground at all, her legs seemed to be phantoms, she just walked casually, and she wouldn't encounter any obstacles. Lin Qiulu appeared to be more clever in the eyes of secular people, and her body was simply suspended in the air, so naturally there was nothing to hinder her.

Qin Yifan is the most special, he is the only person who is really down-to-earth, and the only person who has stepped on his footprints. But despite this, he never lowered his head to clean up anything that stood in his way, as if all the grass and branches or something, if they touched his leg far away, they would be pushed away by an invisible force, and it was also a smooth road along the way. But looking at his appearance, it seems that he is simply absent-minded, or thoughtful, and it always doesn't feel like his normal state.

Cultivators also distinguish between instrumental cultivation and intentional cultivation, which Qin Yifan had never thought of before. This also made Qin Yifan feel a little funny all the time, although cultivators are known as happy and fateful, and look down on fame and fortune, even if some disciples are killed, they also prevaricate the past with excuses such as the Mandate of Heaven, but there are some things that they don't seem to have seen yet.

Of course, it goes without saying that when you really encounter the great annihilation of evil creatures, there are still people who will take action for the heavens, but it is not the hypocritical action of monks and Taoists not long ago. The other one, to put it bluntly, is actually worthless, and it turns out to be this kind of conceptual conflict.

Qi Xiu and Yi Xiu seem to be living in harmony with each other, but they still look down on each other in their bones, and of course, those people in the Demon Dao are even less in their eyes. It can be explained from Lin Qiulu's unconsciously manifested attitude, Lin Qiulu is just a junior disciple, and he can say the kind of words aimed at Yixiu with a deep contempt attitude, you can imagine the attitude of their sect.

Speaking of which, one of the instrument cultivation and the intention cultivation is regarded as the cultivation of external skills, and the other is regarded as the cultivation of internal skills, and in the martial arts, there are also such differences. Of course, this self-righteous disagreement between the two sides can also manifest itself in a very strong opposition, and even in a much more intense way. It's just that later, everyone realized their shortcomings, and many people began to cultivate both inside and outside.

Strictly speaking, Qin Yifan can't talk about both internal and external cultivation at present, and what is more focused is still internal strength. In his thinking, both internal and external cultivation not only fails to specialize, but also distracts energy, and the gains outweigh the losses. Then, I think there should be similar thoughts in the monastic world, and I don't know if there are many people among them who cultivate both inside and outside.

However, according to Qin Yifan's point of view, after really consulting some about the difference between instrument cultivation and intentional cultivation, it is not so much the difference between internal cultivation and external cultivation as the difference between civil and military affairs. For Yixiu, it has always been the pursuit of his own realm improvement, the pursuit of the comprehension of the world, and the pursuit of the artistic conception of the mysterious realm of those piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, medicine, and astrology.

Although the orthodox Buddhism focuses on inner perception, it still has high requirements for external merit, which is also the reason why Buddhism keeps the precepts and cultivates the path and accumulates merits. It's just that the tempering of this kind of artistic conception can certainly make a person very noble, but it lacks the killing decision of some generals. It is precisely because of this that very few of those who have fallen into the Demon Dao are cultivators who have cultivated the Dao, and most of them are cultivators.

On the other hand, people who cultivate weapons are obsessed with the power of magic weapons, and they are obsessed with the power of attack and defense, which is a bit of a military general. It's just that all the cultivation is reflected in the grade of the magic weapon, but there are some points that Qin Yifan doesn't agree with very much, no matter how powerful the magic weapon is, if it is not controlled by the matching power, it is just subject to the weapon.

Lin Qiulu seemed to understand this truth very well, and had commented before that the Shushan Ziqing Twin Sword Sword was a sword master rather than a human sword. But in any case, if the person who uses the magic weapon cannot control the magic weapon, or if the cultivation is worse than the magic weapon, but he covets the grade of the magic weapon, he will fall into the wrong path of blindly pursuing a strong ** treasure. There are so many things that are not used on Yuanqing Lao Dao, maybe it is because of this mentality.

Qin Yifan always believed that even a divine weapon was controlled by people. The reason why immortal weapons become immortal weapons and Buddha treasures become Buddha treasures is not because of the magic weapons themselves, but because they are held in the hands of the immortal Buddhas. At all times, people should be primary. Of course, Qin Yifan is not the kind of person who wants to cultivate, blindly looking down on instrument cultivation.

It's strange that Qin Yifan would actually think about such a question at such a moment, and I can't help but say that Qin Yifan has been a little stimulated recently and has gone a little crazy. All the time, I hope to find a way to become stronger.

What stimulated him was not the face problem of being saved by Qin Xiaoling, but the feeling of being helpless in the face of a strong enemy, in Qin Yifan's military career, there had never been such a thing, even in the face of a powerful enemy, there was always a way to face it, at least, he could escape. However, that day was a bit of a dilemma with no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth, which was quite uncomfortable.

Moreover, since knowing the difference between instrument cultivation and Yi cultivation, Lin Qiulu found that Qin Yifan seemed to have suddenly changed his surname. It's just that in her and Qin Xiaoling's subconscious, they actually think that this is normal, as if this is Qin Yifan's original surname, and it can't be said that a woman's intuition is really keen.

The kitchen knife kept flying up and down in Qin Yifan's hand, and the speed was so fast that it was a little difficult to see. Since that day, Qin Yifan has never let his only weapon leave his body, if he held a kitchen knife in his hand that day, I believe that with the sharpness of the kitchen knife, it would be okay to break the monk's golden bell jar. There will be no Qin Xiaoling's later tribulations, and of course, there will be no later opportunities. However, with Qin Yifan's surname, he would rather kill the enemy with a single knife than ask for this unexpected benefit after nine deaths.

It's just that, no matter what, Qin Yifan now seems to be blocked by the threshold of cultivation, and he is turned away by the door. But now Qin Yifan faintly felt a little lucky, fortunately he didn't crash into it before, otherwise, he didn't even understand the basic concepts of these so-called instrument cultivation intentions, even if he cultivated the Dao, he was also cultivating a confused Dao.

Qin Yifan was sure that Lin Qiulu didn't know these things at all before the foundation of the cultivation was laid, but because some people in the sect found that she had excellent qualifications, so they took her to the mountain gate, and then began to learn the basic skills of the sect. When it comes to a certain time, he will begin to cast sword tires and build flying swords, so that he will walk up step by step along the path of the elders of the division.

It's not without its benefits, but at least it's safe and sound. The predecessors have already poked out the path of their lineage, and all they have to do is to follow the path of their predecessors, step by step. But the downside is that you will never be able to enjoy the beauty of any road other than the road in front of you.

Many martial arts sects do this. The ancestors of the founding sect have reached the point of reaching the pinnacle, but the descendants rarely have the opportunity to create it again, and even if there is, it is only a supplement to the predecessors.

The same is true of Buddhism in this regard. Take Buddhism as an example, almost all the orthodox Buddhist scriptures are heard in the first sentence, and I heard it like this...... It is entirely an explanation of the ideas of the ancestors, but no one has ever given a different opinion.

Qin Yifan didn't want to take such a path, even when he was practicing martial arts, he didn't like it. But after learning those quick success methods, I still tried my best to improve and reform. When he now had the opportunity to step into the threshold of monasticism, he did not want to follow such a path again. I hope that more will indeed follow a path of one's own.

Perhaps, it is a good idea to cultivate the two families of the comprehensive instrument cultivation, or or, it is not bad to take your own path alone, and it is not bad to cultivate martial arts, and enter the road with martial arts, which is a road that no one has walked before.

He subconsciously skillfully waved the weapon in his hand, but his mind was full of thoughts. Even the situation in front of me is a little forgotten, and unconsciously, the whole body will spontaneously exude a faint internal force to clear the obstacles encountered along the way.

There are too many things in his head, it seems that some of them haven't been completely figured out yet, just a rough idea, but this is enough for Qin Yifan to enter this subconscious state.

Qin Yifan was already accustomed to having distracting thoughts in his mind when he was practicing, and he was still a little unaccustomed to such a state of practice hindered by likes and dislikes even after leaving the Fist Seal Lake. It's a rare opportunity for him to enter the current state under the constant thinking in his head, but it seems to be very comfortable.

Lin Qiulu also noticed this situation, and deliberately pulled Qin Xiaoling behind, without making any sound, for fear of disturbing Qin Yifan. He also knew that whether it was martial arts or cultivation, this kind of unconscious appearance as if entering the state of emptiness was very rare. Qin Yifan's troubles and pressures in the past few days, Lin Qiulu is clear, maybe, in such a situation, it is also a good opportunity for Qin Yifan to make a breakthrough.
