The second stage of cultivation of the essence is mainly based on condensing qi and transforming essence.

This is also the basic practice that is also involved in the internal cultivation methods that have been handed down among the ancient sect families in the world of swordsmen, although they have different characteristics, but they have the same end.

The uniqueness of "Heavenly Tablet Sword Diagram" is that it focuses on the connection between qi, reason, life, and surname, which is a unique cultivation system formed by integrating the essence of the characteristics of various exercises and integrating the true meaning contained in all sword techniques.

This exercise was obtained by Nie Lin in his previous life and the exploration of an ancient relic with his master and brothers, coupled with his genius cultivation resources, with this exercise, he created the legend and glory of a generation of sword venerables.

But that short-lived brilliance also made him pay a heavy price!

At the beginning, he, like the vast majority of swordsmen in the world who have stepped into the pinnacle, was not calm enough on the path of pursuing a higher realm level of swordsmanship.

Just like a generation of kendo grandmasters, Master Solitary Annihilation, his realm has reached the peak of the Sword Saint, but he has not taken that step for a long time to achieve the legend of the Sword Venerable, but on his kendo path, he is still calm and persistently sticks to that simplicity.

But Nie Lin knew in his heart that the strength of the Lonely Sword Dao had already reached the realm of the Sword Venerable, but he had always stayed on the comprehension of the artistic conception of the Infinite Truth, as long as he broke through that layer of shackles, then the Lonely Sword Proving Heavenly Monument would definitely be the first person to succeed.

Therefore, by recalling these stories, Nie Lin always reminded himself that for him, it was not difficult to restore the strength of the Sword Saint again, but the difficulty was that he had to comprehend the artistic conception of the sword path of the surname and the true knowledge of the royal way.

The meaning of the sword of solitude is two words: simple.

And the kendo meaning that he wants to explore in this life is a question that Nie Lin has been thinking about, and it can also be boiled down to two words: true knowledge!

Therefore, for those sword skills that are superficial, as well as some cultivation methods, Nie Lin attaches more importance to the connotation.

Of course, this is a goal or ideal that Nie Lin has set up while waking up to himself.

Everyone has ideals when they are young, and striving for them is undoubtedly greater than being at a loss and trying to find out what they have gained.

But ideals are ideals, everything still has to be based on reality, Nie Lin naturally knows what he needs to do at the moment, that is, to continue to cultivate and consolidate the foundation.

The cultivation of this stage of Qi Condensation and Essence Transformation is a good foundation laid by the first stage of Qi Observation cultivation in Nie Lin's cultivation plan.

When the true qi of his whole body formed a Zhou Tian cycle, he would continue to change through the perception of heaven and earth qi. After laying this foundation, when Nie Lin entered the second stage of condensation and refinement, it was relatively easier.

The condensation and refinement here refers to the condensation of essence, which requires Nie Lin to contemplate the qi, quench the body, and concentrate the mind when the true qi in his body is circulating, and the true qi is supplemented by the condensation and refinement.

This kind of refining qi, if applied to the way of the sword, can be called sword breath, and further, it can also be called sword qi.

Because of the existence of the sword beast unique to the world of swordsmen, when the swordsmen who live in the swordsman are cultivating, they will mostly use the sword fetus conceived in the body of the sword beast, so that through the situation of external cultivation or internal cultivation, the qi of the essence fetus enters the body, or it is instilled on the sword body, and it is connected with the gods, so as to form sword breath, or sword qi, and enhance their strength.

So at this stage, there is a fork in the road that can be chosen, one is to cultivate the sword breath internally, with its own life body as the mainstay, and external objects as the auxiliary, through continuous tempering, so that the sword breath continues to grow in the body, and when it comes to the stage of the swordsman, you can form and release a unique sword gang through the sword breath condensed by itself.

This kind of cultivation method is often very hard, and there are also worries about the surname, the dependence on the sword is not strong, but the strength is strong, and the sword realm has no end, and it is easy to produce super strong.

The other is the external cultivation of sword breath, this method is mainly based on external objects or sword weapons, supplemented by the life body, and the essence absorbed by the life body is implanted into the sword body to form a sword breath or sword gang.

This method is relatively safe, and there is no worry about the surname in the cultivation process, but the dependence on the sword is too strong, and the more difficult it will be, except for special circumstances, the sword master is already the peak of this kind of external sword cultivators, and it is extremely difficult to produce a strong person above the sword master.

And these two sword cultivation methods, ordinary civilians or ordinary small families, because they do not have a good family background, nor do they have high-level sword skills, so they will mostly choose the way of external cultivation.

Although there are also some well-gifted civilian swordsmen who will also choose to cultivate internally, often they have accidents in the process of cultivation, or because the grade of the sword technique is too low, after they have defects or flaws, if there is no guidance from a famous teacher, or there is no strong resource supplement, it will undoubtedly be fatal.

Therefore, some families, or kendo sects, they have rich heritage and excellent sword skills, so cultivating their children is generally a way of internal cultivation, so as to make them more powerful.

And those swordsmen who do not have these foundations, but have excellent talents, will mostly choose to attach themselves to these families or sects to make them more powerful, so as to occupy the dominant class in this world.

But Nie Lin is an exception.

Although he is a member of the common people, he is an orphan, he has no excellent family background, and he does not have the resources and wealth of a rich country, but he has rich experience in his previous life, as well as the "Heavenly Tablet Sword Diagram", which can be called a superb top-level exercise, so there are no such and such worries in his cultivation.

Nie Lin didn't have to think about it at all, he just drew up a cultivation plan in the way of internal cultivation.

Therefore, after entering the second stage of the cultivation of condensing qi and transforming essence, Nie Lin is based on the true qi that is constantly wandering in the body, by stimulating the blood veins of the body, and then concentrating on connecting with it, so that the true qi and blood qi can be integrated, if there are sword fetuses that can be included, you can continue to introduce the 'essence qi' in those sword fetuses, so as to produce a pure 'sword qi', which is the refining qi of 'sword breath'.

Like some families or sects, their cultivation methods of 'sword breath' are different, but often after the swordsmen have cultivated 'sword breath' to a certain level, they omit the step of condensing 'sword qi' from sword breath. They will directly use the 'sword breath' to condense the 'sword gang' that only the swordsman realm possesses.

For Nie Lin, when he was cultivating to observe qi and gather qi, he was able to brew sword breath in his body, but he never carried out this step, but first let the true qi form a Zhou Tian cycle in his body, so as to skip this basic step of sword breath and directly condense sword qi.

This is also the difference between the Heavenly Tablet Sword Diagram and other exercises, he pays more attention to the change of 'Qi Theory', so when Nie Lin cultivates, in the process of condensing from True Qi to Essence Qi, what is directly transformed is 'Sword Qi', rather than the popular 'Sword Breath'.

Due to the foundation of the Zhou Tian operation of True Qi, after the True Qi mass that stayed in the three palaces in Nie Lin's body was filled, Nie Lin would turn them into a mass of essence qi through cultivation guidance, and it would continue to circulate in his body.

This essence qi is formed after the essence and blood qi is connected to Nie Lin's mind and spirit, and is formed after fusing with true qi, and they will follow the framework drawn up by Nie Lin in the first stage, completing the Zhou Tian cycle in the meridians of the body, and there is no need for Nie Lin to customize a running route for them again.

Now that Nie Lin is cultivation has only entered the second stage of cultivation, he has only placed a part of the essence transformed through his cultivation in the dantian, and let them circulate with the line of the true qi rotation when observing the qi, and he has not been able to fuse all the true qi condensed in his body with the blood qi and mind to complete the condensation.

Because this requires a gradual process, and the blood essence qi does not mean that it can be generated, he needs Nie Lin to continue to refine the body through the cultivation of the basic quenching technique of 'Ascending Dragon Decision', so as to make the body's mechanism and function more tenacious.

In addition, coupled with the addition of a large amount of food, the body's mechanism is more energetic, so that the blood qi produced will be very thick, and the process of transforming into essence will be much faster.

Therefore, after condensing the essence for an unknown amount of time, when Nie Lin felt a little dizzy and was very hungry, he took the effort.

After opening his eyes, he found that the sky was still dark, but the scar on his body before had scabbed over and automatically fell off after the essence had been running for a week, which made Nie Lin a little surprised.

Knock knock!

When Nie Lin was about to go out to find something to eat, there was a knock on the door outside.
