Volume 1 Ordinary Hidden Immortals Chapter 10 Pei Yuan Gong and the First Glimpse of Cultivation
Just when the Li family yawned and went back to the house to sleep, and the maids and servants also found a place to doze off. Nangong Xiao is the most energetic person in the Li Mansion. He cautiously checked the surroundings of the house, and made sure that there was no one around, so he quickly closed the door happily, jumped on the bed, took out the jade slip and the small jar from his arms, tried his best to suppress the urge to laugh, and kept rolling on the bed to vent the happiness in his heart.
After a long time, Nangong Xiao sat up panting, took a few deep breaths, and let his breathing slowly calm down. He threw the small jar in the corner of the bed, picked up the jade slip and studied it.
The jade slip is crystal clear all over, exuding that soothing atmosphere. But what is this thing for, Nangong Xiao has no clue at all. It doesn't look like it's used to attack, or it needs some mantra to activate, such as "XX, please give me power!" "Something like that." This is troublesome, the jade slip is in hand but can't be used, which is more uncomfortable than not having the jade slip. Nangong Xiao smiled bitterly.
Suddenly, Nangong Xiao had a flash of inspiration, and said to himself, "By the way, I can use that to induce a try, since it is an unreasonable thing, then use unreasonable means to solve it." ”
With that, he held the jade slip in his hand, and then sensed the inside of the jade slip. But I feel a glimmer of nothingness, but it's not real. He then tried to pull Jade Jane closer, feeling something more, but it was still indistinct. Nangong Xiao pressed the jade slip on his forehead, and suddenly, a large amount of text information poured into his brain, which made Nangong Xiao's brain hurt and suffered a small loss. But he didn't care about this headache, and was completely immersed in shock and joy, because three big characters "Pei Yuan Gong" appeared in the image in his mind.
Got it! Finally let myself find it, the practice of cultivating immortals! Nangong Xiao couldn't wait to look behind, followed by the self-description of a person named Li Hua.
According to Li Hua's account, he should be the ancestor of the Li family a hundred years ago, originally learned art in a true sect, but because of mediocre qualifications, he stayed for thirty years, but he still failed to build a foundation, and in frustration, he went down the mountain to marry a wife and have children, but it was a coincidence that none of the descendants could cultivate, so he left only this jade slip and the small jar picked up from the ancient monk's cave, in the hope that future generations of destined people can get it, and continue to cultivate the truth.
Nangong Xiao looked at it for a while, thought about it for a long time, and recognized the words in a short paragraph, but there were too many strange words, what kind of cultivation, sect, foundation building, monk, I felt that I didn't understand. He had no choice but to look down, hoping for some detailed notes.
Fortunately, this ancestor Li Hua is still very considerate of his descendants and explained them one by one.
It turns out that the first step in cultivating immortals is to cultivate the truth first, and the emphasis is on learning and cultivating, seeking the true self, and removing the false and preserving the truth.
The sect is better explained, it is an organization established to pursue better conditions for cultivation. Building the foundation is a kind of realm of cultivation, in this realm, the realm is divided into Qi training, foundation building, knotting, Yuanying and the legendary god of transformation.
The improvement of the realm means the increase in strength, but the biggest benefit is the great increase in longevity. During the Qi training period, people can live to be about 100 years old; After the foundation was laid, it skyrocketed to more than 200 years old; When it comes to Jiedan, it can live for more than 500 years; The condensed yuan infant can live up to thousands of years; As for the gods, because they have not been seen for 10,000 years, they do not know their lifespan.
And all cultivators are called monks.
Nangong Xiao sighed after reading it, it seemed that he had cultivated immortals and become gods, and the road to immortality was much more difficult and long than he imagined. This Li Hua has never been able to enter the foundation building in his life, and according to what he said, the foundation building is a cultivator in the true sense, who can fly with qi. It can be seen from this that the road to cultivating immortals is difficult.
But so what, since this is against the sky, since I have come to this world without dying, I will not care about this? Nangong Xiao smiled.
But what happened next made him frown. Li Hua mentioned that if you want to cultivate the truth, you must have a spiritual root, and those who have a spiritual root can be said to be one out of ten thousand, which is extremely rare. However, intermarriage between cultivators can greatly increase their chances. Seeing this, he couldn't help but feel pity for this ancestor, and none of the descendants had spiritual roots, which was too much. In addition, the spiritual root is only formed by nature and cannot be obtained after tomorrow.
It's like there is a competition that is very competitive, and you want to try it, but you find that you don't even have the qualifications to participate, so you can only shout 666 on the side, which can be described as cruel.
Nangong Xiao's left hand fingers scratched his chin lightly, and he thought quietly. He didn't expect Li Tao to be born with a spiritual root at all, which was about the same as the odds of winning a large lottery. However, he also felt that he should have a spiritual root, after all, he had the spirit of the thunder god in his soul, even if he didn't have it before, he should be able to mutate one now, although the quality can't be guaranteed to be good, but it shouldn't be too bad to think about it, or it won't be too embarrassing for the gods.
After figuring it out, Nangong Xiao continued to scan the other content. An hour later, he withdrew from the jade slip and closed his eyes to recuperate. He pondered slowly. After Li Hua's statement, he also learned that his ability to sense the surroundings is called divine consciousness, which is used in many places, which is very important. There is also the breath emitted by Yu Jian and Qin Suxin, which is not immortal qi, but aura.
Behind the jade slip is the practice of Pei Yuan Gong, which turned out to be ancient literature, fortunately he had the foresight, and the ancient literature is almost there, or he really can't understand it, he is a little self-satisfied.
Among them, there are the first to thirteenth layers of the Qi training period, and the thirteenth layer of exercises in the foundation building period, but there are no after the foundation building period.
Although Nangong Xiao was disappointed, he could understand when he thought about it, how could a little monk in the Qi cultivation period get high-level exercises, and it was already good to have a foundation building period. Just as he wanted to take a closer look at the exercises of the first layer, his divine sense began to tingle in bursts, which frightened Nangong Xiao and immediately withdrew from the jade slip. He knew that this was because his divine sense was not strong enough, but he had no choice but to close his eyes and recuperate. After a few more hours, he tried to enter the jade slip again, but unfortunately in vain, so he simply lay down and slept.
The next day, Nangong Xiao was able to enter the jade slip again, and quickly figured out that one hour a day was his limit.
Since this is the case, Nangong Xiao will not waste time, and immediately began to recite the exercises of the first layer. The number of words in the first layer of exercises is small, and he was originally a scholar, and memorizing it is naturally a housekeeping skill, and in less than an hour, he has already memorized the exercises.
At that moment, he immediately sat cross-legged as described by Pei Yuangong, with his hands sealed at the dantian, his heart was free of distractions, and his eyes were closed to gather qi, so as to try to sense the aura of heaven and earth mentioned in Pei Yuangong. However, what made Nangong Xiao depressed was that after two moments, he still couldn't feel the slightest aura, which made him wonder if he really didn't have a spiritual root.
Let's try it again, Nangong Xiao cheered himself up, it took so many days of hard work, and it was too hasty to suspect it in two moments.
Two hours later, he finally faintly felt a little aura, which made him extremely surprised.
He slowly merged these spiritual qi into the dantian according to the explanation of the exercises, condensed it into an air mass, slowly refined it, and finally formed a wisp of vitality, and began to guide this vitality to circulate in the small Zhoutian. After running for thirty-six hours, a cycle of the big week is carried out.
When he woke up from his meditation, he found that he was not very tired, but rather more energetic. So taking advantage of this momentum, Nangong Xiao continued to practice the exercises.
