Chapter 4: The Path of Cultivation

Time is like flowing water, and what happened yesterday is still vivid in my mind, but yesterday has long passed......

Two years have passed in a flash, and two years for the strong are just a moment of retreat, even ordinary people don't care, but for the shocking world, he is already two years old, and according to Zhou Yi's arrangement, he should enter the path of cultivation at this time.

So early this morning, Longshi and Shocking were called up, and their queen Lianxin pulled them to see Zhou Yi. For these two children, the person closest to them in the past two years is Lianxin. Because the retreat of the emperor has not yet appeared, and Lianxin likes children and does not want to be taken care of by the people in the palace, so now the two children have only the queen mother in their eyes. The natural queen mother will do whatever she wants.

In the back garden of the palace, Zhou Yi has been waiting here for a long time.

Lian Xin came here with her two children, and when she saw Zhou Yi, she said, "Tian'er, I have brought all the dragons, but do you think they are still too young, national teacher!

Zhou Yi was unmoved when he heard this, and said: "Cultivation first cultivates the mind, so their current teachers are the four holy masters, queen, don't worry, what I do will only benefit them and will not be bad." And His Majesty is almost out of the customs, you can go and see. ”

Lian Xin was extremely happy when she heard this, and said: "National Teacher, what you said is true, that's really good, I've been worried that Your Majesty will ask me after he doesn't leave the customs, how should I answer!"

Zhou Yi also smiled when he heard this, and said, "Okay, I'm going to take the two Highnesses away." ”

"Wait a minute," Lian Xin stopped, and then she slowly squatted down, touched the heads of Shocking Heaven and Dragon Stone, and said gently: "Long'er, Tian'er, this old man will be your teacher in the future, and you will have to listen to him in the future!"

The two children said angrily, "Queen Mother, why should you listen to him? ”

Lian Xin smiled softly and said, "You listen to the queen mother, then the queen mother wants you to listen to this old man, is it okay?"

Shocking and Longshi looked at Zhou Yi and then at Lianxin, and said, "We listen to the words of the queen mother, and we will listen to the words of the old grandfather in the future." ”

Finally, the earth-shattering and dragon stone were taken away by Zhou Yi, in fact, the talent of the dragon stone is not weak, it can be said that it is chasing the human emperor. Zhou Yi thought: Anyway, there is not much difference in age between the two children, it is better to teach them together, and then teach them separately in the future, after all, the two will have different paths in the future, Longshi is destined to be the next human emperor, and Shocking will go to the position of the first person in the desolate punishment force. But now it's all the same, cultivation starts with mind cultivation, and the four holy masters are the best teachers.

......

On the left side of the back flower courtyard of the Imperial Palace of Purple Dragon City, here is a study. At this time, Zhou Yi walked into the room with the shocking and dragon stones, and Lao Zhuang, Confucius and Meng were on the upper seat.

Zhou Yi took the child and said with a smile: "Four Dao brothers, now I will hand over the two highnesses to you, you only need to teach them to cultivate their hearts now." As for the rest, there is no hurry. ”

Zhou Yi said to the two children again: "Now, these four teachers will teach you first. Teacher, I still have something to do, so I'm going to go first, okay?"

The two little guys were sent to Zhou Yi by the queen mother, and now Zhou Yi is leaving again, although he has amazing talents, but they are also in cultivation, and they are still two ignorant children. The two of them were sent back and forth like this, and they were immediately wronged, and they couldn't help crying, and they couldn't stop crying. The study was immediately full of crying "Wow~"

Zhou Yi immediately panicked, he had never been a parent, how could he know what to do. But at this time, Lao Tzu and Zhuangzi read the scriptures, which were not good at first, but later they were like fairy music, and sent bursts of clear air, which seemed to soothe people's hearts and get rid of negative emotions, and the two children quieted down at once.

Zhou Yi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and said, "I didn't expect that the two Daoist brothers' Pure Heart Mantra still has such an effect. ”

Zhuangzi also quipped: "I can't imagine that the national teacher who cares about the world is afraid that two children will cry! ”

......

This was the beginning of the cultivation path of the two children.

Four years have passed in a flash, during which the emperor went out of the customs as Zhou Yi said, and the emperor saw two children when he came out of the customs, but the two children did not recognize him, and Lianxin said bitterly for a while, and the two children called their father.

And the teaching of the four holy teachers is also complaining about Zhou Yi for a while, the two children are still too young to concentrate on learning, and even the four holy teachers who recognize words have been teaching for three months. But when other children are so old, I'm afraid they won't be able to learn anything!

For the problem of urinating and learning in such a small way, Zhou Yi had already come to a conclusion, and now they don't understand anything, the so-called pure heart is at this time, and now let the holy master who can be said to be the most respected saint in the whole absurdity teach, as a guide, it is a good thing.

......

It's been six years, and it's been six years since the heaven-shattering came to the wilderness.

It is still the study in the back garden, but the person standing in front of the earth-shattering and dragon stone at this time has become Zhou Yi, four years of mind cultivation can already lay a good foundation for them, and now Zhou Yi feels that he should teach them the method of refining qi.

Zhou Yi said to the two of them solemnly: "Now, Long'er, Tian'er must remember every word I say." ”

Shocking and Longshi agreed: "Yes, teacher, the apprentice must remember it." ”

Then Zhou Yi began to lecture: "The vastness of heaven and earth, and the power of human beings to view heaven and earth has a cultivation. First of all, cultivation is divided into six realms: the refining realm, the law realm, the dao realm, the holy realm, the adversity realm, and the divine realm. The first two major realms are divided into four small realms: primary, middle, post, and consummation. ”

Zhou Yi paused again when he said this, and then said: "The refining realm is divided into heart refining and body refining, this is a foundation realm, and this realm is related to all your future realms. However, this realm is mainly about refining the body, because refining the heart can be in any realm, that is to say, the weight of refining the heart is more important than refining the body, after all, it is a thing that will accompany you for a lifetime. And here there is another realm that specifically distinguishes the state of mind, the Ming realm, which does not belong to the six realms, but it is among the six realms. All right. You will understand these things when you meet them, but remember, no one can help others improve their enlightenment, only on their own. ”

At this time, he said: "Then teacher, can other realms be improved by others!"

Zhou Yi listened and approached the shocking sky and said: "This is okay, but the foundation is unstable like that, so it is not of much use, Long'er, Tian'er remembers that it is best to cultivate by yourself, and never think about getting it for nothing." ”

After hearing this, the two nodded and responded, "Remember." ”

Zhou Yi smiled happily when he heard this: "That's good to talk about refining the body, refining the body is to take the aura of heaven and earth, accept it in one's own body and return it to heaven and earth." To put it simply, it is to absorb the aura of heaven and earth in the body for a week and then discharge it, so that the body is fully refined, remember that the most important thing in this step is not to absorb but to discharge, some people feel the benefits of aura, they don't want to discharge, then the inevitable result is that the refining body fails, don't want to enter the next realm in the future. ”

Long Shi couldn't help but have doubts when he heard this, and said, "Teacher, what is the true qi of my father and mother!" It is said that if you want to expel spiritual energy, then your body should not have true qi!

Zhou Yi smiled again and said: "Very good, being able to ask questions proves that you are listening carefully, the refining realm does not allow the inclusion of aura, that is because the aura that is included now is not pure, and can only be used to refine the body, but when the refining is completed, the whole body has been tempered by the aura, and for this reason, it can be incorporated into the aura and turned into our true qi at that time." Moreover, in the process of refining the body, there are also aura that cannot be discharged, and those aura can also be turned into true qi, but it must be an aura that cannot be discharged at all. ”

Zhou Yi paused after finishing speaking, and asked, "Do you still have questions?"

Both shook their heads at the same time and said, "It's gone." ”

Zhou Yi then continued: "Okay, let's go on to say that the initial refining of the body is the early stage, the quenching of the limbs is the middle stage, the quenching of the parts except the head is the late stage, and the quenching of the head is the consummation." ”

At this time, there was another problem in the shocking world: "Teacher, didn't you say that you were tempering the whole body at one time?

Zhou Yi explained: "The limbs of a person are much simpler than the whole body, so first, the head is the most complex, so last. Is there anything else you want to ask?"

Shocking said: "Tian'er already understands." ”

Zhou Yi continued: "Now the Dharma realm, the Dharma realm is a realm where cultivators begin to contact the law and origin after refining their bodies. To say the Dharma realm, we must first talk about the laws and origins of this world, our world is composed of eight origins, nine ** rules and two constant laws. The origin has 'gold, wood, water, fire, earth, thunder, yin and yang', the law has 'order, fate, life, death, destruction, creation, reincarnation, nothingness, origin', and the constant law is 'time and space', but it is too difficult to comprehend the constant law, at least no one has comprehended it now. Make a note of it. ”

After waiting for a while, Zhou Yi said again: "When you comprehend the law or origin, it is considered the early stage, when you can use it directly, it is the middle stage, and when you can comprehend it, it is the late stage, and finally when you can really understand it, you will enter the consummation." ”

"Teacher, can a person only comprehend one law or origin?"

Zhou Yi smiled and said: "This generally depends on a person's talent and understanding, some people can't comprehend one in their lifetime, but some people can comprehend it all." ”

At this time, Long Shi found another problem: "Teacher, since you can comprehend more laws or origins, isn't it more difficult to make progress in cultivation?"

Zhou Yi explained: "Naturally, this is the case, but since you can comprehend multiple laws and origins, then your talent and comprehension must surpass ordinary people, and on the other hand, it will not be very slow." Moreover, if there is one more law and origin, then the space in the future will be broader and more powerful. ”

Shocking and keenly discovered the words in Zhou Yi's mouth, he asked, "What's the matter with the teacher's more choice?"

Zhou Yi replied again: "Tian'er asked well, this is related to the next realm." In the next realm Dao realm, the cultivators of this realm will have their own Dao, and this Dao is what determines everything in your future, and the origin of your own Dao is related to the comprehension of the previous realm and the Ming Realm, and the cultivator can integrate various laws and origins with each other and then combine them with the Ming Realm to become the future Dao. And after the Dao Realm, there is no small realm, everyone's Dao is different, so there is no way to distinguish it, but you must remember that when refining the realm and the Law realm, some talented people can also fight across the realm, and they can enter the Dao realm, and the strong people in the Dao realm can crush the people in the refining realm and the law realm. ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Yiduo glanced at the sky, as if he wanted him to break this rule. After all, the rules are all broken by the strong, and the shocking is the candidate that Zhou Yi thinks. Of course, I can't see these things now, but I'm just studying hard.

Zhou Yi continued: "After that, the cultivation is to cultivate one's own Dao, when one's Dao is initially perfected, one will enter the Holy Realm, and when one's Dao is recognized by heaven and earth, it will enter adversity, and those who enter the adversity will begin to survive the tribulation, and after the tribulation, they will enter the Divine Realm, and then the cultivation will not know." ”

Long Shi asked again: "Teacher, is it only a catastrophe, or?"

Zhou Yi said helplessly: "Actually, even the teacher himself doesn't know this." Okay, these are still far away, now that class is over, I have talked enough today, you go down to digest and digest, and tomorrow I will teach you the method of cultivation. ”

Hearing Zhou Yi say that he didn't know, both of them were slightly disappointed, after all, Zhou Yi's omniscient appearance before was really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. However, now that today's lesson is over. Then they had to go, after giving Zhou Yi a salute, the two returned to their palace, the shocking palace had to pass through the palace of Longshi, today Longshi asked him to play with him, and the shocking sky also went.

After all, it's still a child, and it's time to play after learning.

At night, in the Dragon Palace, the Dragon Hall is the palace of the Dragon Stone. The earth-shattering is called the Temple of Heaven.

Long Shi asked the heaven-shattering question, "Xiaotian, how do you want to cultivate in the future?"

Shocking replied: "Big brother, I want to enter the Dharma realm, I want to comprehend all the laws and origins, and I want to have the strongest Dao. ”

Long Shi smiled: "Haha, Xiaotian, it seems that your brother and I will be stronger than you in the future!"

When the child heard that someone was better than him, he immediately became unhappy and asked, "Why?"

Long Shi replied: "Your eldest brother, in addition to doing what you said, I also have to comprehend the two constant laws of time and space, the teacher said that no one understands it, your eldest brother wants to be the first person, hehe." ”

Shocking was immediately unconvinced, and said: "I also want to comprehend the constant law, and I also want to be the first person." ”

Long Shi said again: "Then the eldest brother still has to improve his own Dao, but also to enter adversity, and to survive the heavenly tribulation, the eldest brother has to explore the cultivation that the teacher does not know, and come back to teach the teacher in the future." ”

After all, the heaven-shattering sky is smaller than the dragon stone, and he had to jump and say: "No, then I have to do what you say, big brother, let's cultivate together." ”

Long Shi pulled the shocking sky and said, "Okay!" and said: "Actually, Xiaotian, you don't have to work so hard, the eldest brother will definitely protect you in the future." This is what the Queen Mother said, and you are not allowed to object. ”

Shocking also said: "Big brother, I want to work hard, that, the queen mother also said that if the sky is powerful in the future, I will protect the eldest brother." ”

Long Shi thought for a while and said, "Then it's better for us to work together to protect the queen mother in the future, okay?"

Shocking listened and nodded happily. Then he said, "What about my father?"

Long Shi didn't think about it and said, "Of course we will protect together!" Although my father doesn't like to talk, I know that he loves us very much. ”

Shocking nodded, and asked, "Big brother, is this considered the filial piety taught by Master Meng!"

Dragonstone nodded.

After a while, the two fell asleep. But no one saw Lianxin crying with joy outside the window. For parents, they may not want their children to be more promising, or they just want him to be sensible and filial.

This is the most innocent idea of the two little children at first, although it may change later, no one can deny that it existed, and it will be like a seed that will one day sprout in the heart. And human beings are the possibility of this infinite continuation.
