A year on Planet Alpha is longer than a year in another world, and it also has four seasons, but each season has four months, and each month lasts about forty days. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The annual aptitude test at Blackstone Junior Academy is scheduled for the second month of spring, and now it's the third month of fall, which means that Stone and Ajian only have a maximum of seven months to pass the three initiation courses, and unlike the other siblings, this is the only chance for the two of them.

For Ah Jian, it is not difficult to pass these three enlightenment courses, he has already studied all the "Holy Scriptures" and "General History" by himself in the past two years, and there is only one "Sacrifice" left, and he can memorize it when the time comes, so he is ready to spend most of his time on cultivation.

But the stone is different, he didn't like to read before, he only recognized a small half of the words on the "Holy Text", "General History" only heard Ah Jian tell some mythological stories, "Sacrifice" has not even touched it, in order to pass the enlightenment course in the past few months, he has been reading desperately, and even sleeping with a book.

During the time when they were preparing for the ability test, Uncle Zhang and the others had already auctioned off all the soul grass, and this time they sold nearly 200,000 gold coins and distributed nearly 60,000 to them, completely solving their worries in the past few years.

In addition, Uncle Zhang also told the two of them some of his experiences when he first started cultivating, teaching them how to meditate on the spiritual core in their brains (note: there is a demon core in the brain of demonic beasts, and humans call it a spiritual core), how to sense the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, and try to guide them into their own spiritual core.

These were indeed very helpful for the two who had never been in contact with cultivation. It's just that it is not easy to sense the spiritual core or the aura of the outside world, which requires both accumulation and chance, and the two have tried countless times, but none of them succeeded.

However, the old demon's research has made new progress, it is more sensitive to the aura of heaven and earth, so it quickly figured out the main source of aura, as well as the influence of the pyramid on the concentration of aura.

With Ah Jian's cooperation, it experimented with many kinds of substances, including various ores and various animals and plants. It was found that the most reiki was released by volcanic stones, and the later the formation age, the stronger the aura. In addition, various animals and plants can also release aura, but their amount is far less than that of volcanic stones, and their strength is generally weak.

Through research, the old demon preliminarily determined that this so-called aura is actually the information scattered between heaven and earth, including the high-energy radiation released by ores and the life information released by living beings, etc., and people and animals have the ability to absorb this information.

Then, it observed the absorption and utilization of the two spiritual energies by Ah Jian and the low-level Warcraft Wind Rabbit in the pyramid, and found that the Warcraft had a stronger absorption capacity for the high-energy radiation of ores, while ordinary people were closer to the life information of living organisms.

This explains why demonic beasts and cultivators cultivate powerful abilities, while ordinary people can only strengthen their bodies when they cultivate.

In another world, materials that produce radiation are often used to make powerful weapons, or to convert into huge amounts of electricity for civilian use, suggesting that radiation can be converted into huge amounts of energy and released.

Then in this world, this demonic beast and cultivator may have transformed high-energy radiation into magic and fighting qi through another special way, thus manifesting it as powerful abilities such as wind, fire, thunder, lightning, and explosive power.

The old monster clearly remembers that in another world, there was an ancient book called "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", which recorded some gods and monsters in ancient times, and they also had strange superpowers, making future generations think that they were just imaginary things.

However, it now seems that what is described in the book is not necessarily imaginary, but may be true. Because according to the book, the environment at that time was full of scorched earth in Montenegro, and even plants and trees were very rare, plus monsters were common, wasn't this the scene not long after the volcanic eruption?

Of course, tens of thousands of years later, the volcano gradually cooled down, and the high-energy radiation on the surface gradually decreased, and the demonic beasts and cultivators withdrew from the stage of history due to the lack of aura. At this time, everyone has no powers, and in turn, they will wonder whether the gods and beasts recorded in the book are true, after all, seeing is believing.

Ordinary people are unable to convert high-energy radiation, but they absorb biological information similar to human life information, and although future generations can continue to cultivate, their main purpose has become health preservation and health care.

"Is it because ordinary people can't absorb this radiation because they don't have a spirit core?"

After listening to the old demon's explanation, Ah Jian still had doubts, he could only absorb the life information of creatures now, so he began to worry about whether he could cultivate.

"No, ordinary people also have spirit cores, but for some reason, the spirit cores have not been activated, so they can't absorb high-energy radiation. ”

"And how is the spirit core activated?"

"I'm still working on this question, and I still need more experiments to confirm it, and I only have some ideas at the moment, do you want to hear it?"

The old monster has been lonely for thousands of years, and now there is one more person who is willing to communicate, so naturally there is endless things to say.

"Of course I want to hear it!"

After all, this is the topic that Ah Jian is most concerned about, even if there is no conclusion yet, he still wants to know more.

"Okay, then I'll say it. I observed the brain structure of the Warcraft Wind Rabbit and the ordinary Mountain Hare, and found that they actually both have magic cores. It's just that the hare's magic core is tightly wrapped by the surrounding nerve tissue, and it is difficult to communicate with the heaven and earth aura of the outside world, and as it ages, its magic core will gradually calcify and fail. However, there is very little nervous tissue around the Storm Rabbit's magic core, and it communicates smoothly with the outside aura, and its magic core grows with age. ”

"Wait, wait, what is nerve tissue? What about calcification?"

Before the old monster could finish speaking, Ah Jian began to protest, he didn't understand the so-called scientific terms of the other world.

"This nerve tissue is the brain's ...... Anyway, it's almost the same as flesh and blood! Calcification, that is, it has become hard and useless. ”

The old monster also had a headache, explaining the physiological structure of the human body to a primary school student, isn't this looking for abuse?

"Oh, I see! Is that some kind of nerve tissue on the outside of the hare demon core cut off, and its magic core can be activated?"

"Yes, in theory, that's a train of thought! There were examples of people in my previous world who were injured or sick and damaged parts of their brains, but accidentally gained supernatural abilities. But there is a great risk of directly cutting off the nerve tissue around the demon core, because the role of these nerve tissues is not clear, and it is very likely that as soon as it is cut off, the mountain hare will die. ”

"Huh?!So what to do?"

"This method is really too extreme, too dangerous, and I don't recommend you try it. There is also a milder way, which is to weaken the activity of the nerve tissue around the demon core as much as possible, so that it can naturally atrophy, so that the demon core can also be revealed. ”

"So how do you do this?"

"The activity of human nervous tissues is because people are thinking, so as long as the person's thinking is suppressed, then the activity of these neural tissues will be weakened. I think the method of cultivating through meditation that you are talking about probably stems from this reason. ”

Uncle Zhang also said the same, he said that meditation is to empty the mind, don't think about anything, as long as you have enough time to meditate, people will naturally open up their minds and cultivate. However, it's too late, we only have seven months, and meditation alone won't necessarily enlighten us, so what should we do?"

"In addition, there is another method, somewhere between the first and the second, which is called extreme breathing. Cutting out nerve tissue is too dangerous, and meditation alone is too slow, so we can combine two methods, that is, to inhibit the development of nerve tissue by controlling breathing, and to inhibit the activity of nerve tissue by emptying the mind. ”

"I don't understand what you're saying, can you put it simply?"

Hearing that the old demon was full of birds again, Ah Jian protested again.

"Oh! The simple truth is that any organ or tissue in the human body needs oxygen, otherwise it will die. Therefore, when cultivating, you should raise your head and suppress your breathing as much as possible, so that the nerve tissue around the demon core will be unable to move due to a temporary lack of oxygen. At the same time, using meditation to cooperate with this process can further inhibit the activity of nerve tissues, and the effect may be more pronounced when used in combination. ”

"This method is good, I'm willing to try, when are we going to start?"

Ah Jian couldn't wait.

"It's easy! I'm just searching for those memories from the past to see if there's a good way to breathe, you wait a little bit. However, there is a saying to remember: If you want to be fast, you will not be able to reach it! Any kind of cultivation method should pay attention to gradual progress, your mentality should be calm, you should not be too impatient, extreme breathing must not become no breathing, and be careful not to let yourself hold your breath and faint. ”

"Am I not that stupid? Can I start now?"

"Okay, listen, I've got an extreme breathing technique here......"

The old monster finally found a breathing method in his memory, which was a secret method handed down from a very famous sect in that world, and he didn't know if it was effective for the humans in this world.

Under the guidance of the old monster, Ah Jian began a special kind of cultivation experiment, and for the next few months, he devoted himself almost wholeheartedly to it, until the old demon came up with a new experimental idea.

When he first started this method of cultivation, he was very unaccustomed to this strange way of meditation, either emptying his mind and forgetting to control his breathing, or he was busy controlling his breathing but letting distracting thoughts run wild, and after persisting for more than half a month, he gradually adapted to this method.

After two months of cultivating like this, he finally clearly felt the heat-generating area in his brain, which was where his spiritual core was located. This meant that he had finally taken the most difficult but important step in his cultivation - perceiving the spirit core, and his joy at this moment was indescribable.
