Chapter 15: Secret Training
Ponder for a moment,
When Lin Tian began to run the Great Dao Mind Method, he began to breathe in three long and one short. He suddenly found that in his meridians, he began to draw a trace of spiritual energy from the outside world, although it was very little, but Lin Tian's spirit was lifted.
It's an aura! I have finally stepped into the ranks of cultivators. Lin Tian was extremely excited in his heart, he slowly closed his eyes, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Just as he was immersed in his own world, suddenly there was a knock on the bamboo door.
Retracting his thoughts, Lin Tian jumped out of bed and opened the bamboo door.
I saw Mu Xue standing at the door with her back to her, her hands in front of her chest, as if she was still angry.
Lin Tian scratched his head and was speechless for a while.
Brother, don't you have anything to say to me? Mu Xue turned her head and stared straight at Lin Tian.
Lin Tian's eyelids jumped in fright, and he stammered: No.... I don't know what the senior sister came to say. It's not like you're still angry about what happened during the day.
Hum! Mu Xue stomped her feet and glared at Lin Tian: I get angry when I think of this, you say that you have to be in the limelight, you are so angry with me. After speaking, the little hand fanned his face angrily.
This! Lin Tian didn't know how to answer: Senior sister, I know it's wrong. I will definitely listen to you in the future and stop messing around.
"Humph! Hum! That's pretty much it. "This is my good junior brother, Mu Xue smiled after speaking.
Lin Tian's scalp suddenly tingled, and the woman's face became faster than flipping through a book.
"Alright! Let's get down to business, I'm here to convey the instructions of the master, so that you can wait for her in the back mountain tomorrow on the fifth watch. Mu Xue paced the trail with her hands behind her back.
Yes? I don't know what the master is doing? Lin Tian frowned.
I don't understand that! Okay, junior brother, you can rest early, I'm going back too. After speaking, Mu Xue slapped Lin Tian's head and turned to leave.
Sending Mu Xue back to the room, Lin Tian lay on the bed and pondered, what will the master tell me to do in the back mountain tomorrow. Could it be that I want to pass on my sect's profound martial arts method, thinking of this, Lin Tian giggled, and soon fell asleep.
On this day, I was really tired from cultivating.
The next morning, before dawn. Lin Tian woke up early, and he woke up every other hour this night, because he was afraid that he would oversleep tomorrow and miss the appointment with his master tomorrow.
He let out a long yawn, stretched, moved his muscles, put on his clothes, and walked back to the mountain.
Well? This time, the senior sister didn't come along, and she was really a little uncomfortable. Lin Tian slandered in his heart.
Half an hour later, Lin Tian finally came to the back mountain.
I saw that there are several huge caves lined up on the mountainside of the back mountain, and there is no plaque above the cave, so I don't know what the scene is in the cave. Lin Tian looked around, but he didn't see Wanqing's figure for a long time.
After half an hour, Lin Tian heard footsteps coming from the path behind him, Lin Tian turned his head to look and saw a figure slowly approaching in the distance, but this figure didn't look a little like Shizun.
When this figure got closer and closer, Lin Tianding looked at it, and his eyes suddenly widened!
Mu Lao! How did you end up here? Lin Tian rubbed his eyes.
Scold! Why can't I come here? An old, hoarse voice responded.
But I agreed with my master to come here to wait for her on the fifth watch today, but I didn't expect it to be Mu Lao. Lin Tian hurriedly bowed with both hands.
"Humph! It's okay if you kid knows a little bit of etiquette. Come with me. After speaking, Mu Lao turned around and walked down the mountain.
Seeing this, Lin Tian immediately followed quickly. Although he was very curious in his heart, he didn't dare to ask Mu Lao. He didn't dare to make Mu Lao angry, this Mu Lao's status in the sect was higher than that of the master.
I saw Mu Lao walking briskly in front, and his steps were getting faster and faster.
Lin Tian chased after him desperately, and soon he was sweating profusely and panting. But seeing that Mu Lao had no intention of stopping, he had to grit his teeth and follow quickly.
Half an hour later, Lin Tian followed Mu Lao to a waterfall at the foot of the mountain.
Mu Lao, why did you bring me here? Lin Tian supported his knees with his hands and looked up at Mu Lao.
Mu Lao smiled evilly: You'll know later.
"I heard that you are going to participate in the qualification selection martial arts competition of the inner gate in a month, and last night your master specially found me and asked me to take you here for secret training." Mu Lao added slowly.
Secret training? Lin Tian looked at Mu Lao with wide eyes.
"Don't look at me like this, do you know how many people can't ask for this opportunity, if it weren't for the face of the little junior sister, I wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to your."
Do you know, who is the strongest in our Martial Sect? Mu Lao asked again.
Lin Tian's head suddenly grew when he heard this, this is a proposition. Then he thought about it and replied: It should be the strongest of the sect master.
You're right. And what about the second? Mu Lao asked with a smile.
Second?? Lin Tian shook his head when he heard this: I don't know......
I saw Mu Lao, who was not far away, stretched out a finger and slowly pointed it at himself.
Lin Tian was stunned for a moment, this ...... I can't bear to look at it directly.
Any questions? When Mu Lao saw Lin Tian's expression, he was immediately displeased: "Do you know how lucky your kid is to be secretly trained by the second strongest person in the sect for a month." I really don't know how blessed I am! ”
Lin Tianhui smiled and bowed deeply: Disciple thanked Boss Mu for his kindness!
Mu Lao smiled and touched his beard: You kid is good, it suits my appetite.
Well, without further ado. Let's go.
After saying that, he grabbed Lin Tian's shoulder, and in a few jumps, he came to the cave behind the waterfall.
From now on, you will be practicing in this cave for a month.
"Now that you've completed the foundation, the next step is to sprint to the gathering period, what are you?" Mu Lao looked at Lin Tian, and his eyes couldn't see joy.
"The so-called gathering of qi is to absorb the aura from the outside world into one's own body through the mental method, and then transport it to the dantian through the seven meridians and eight veins, and then transform it into Xuan Qi from the dantian. And the secret techniques we usually perform are all based on Xuan Qi in order to be performed. Without waiting for Lin Tian to answer, Mu Lao Zhengse said.
"The gas gathering period is divided into three layers, which are the early, middle and late stages. The initial cultivation is to be able to absorb the aura from the outside world into the body and store it in the dantian, and through the dantian, the aura can be transformed into the Xuan Qi used by our martial artists. The mid-stage cultivation is able to release the Xuan Qi in the dantian through the secret techniques of the exercises, while the later cultivation is able to materialize the Xuan Qi. This is the gathering period. Mu Lao only said slowly.
"Oh, I see." Through Mu Lao's elaboration, Lin Tian finally understood what it meant to gather qi.
"Now I will pass on to you the mental method of gathering qi, and the rest will depend on your slow comprehension and cultivation." After speaking, Mu Lao pointed to Lin Tian's eyebrows.
Seeing a technique reflected in Lin Tian's mind, Lin Tian hurriedly bowed and saluted: Thank you Mu Lao for your advice.
"Okay, you can practice here, take care of your own food and lodging, and call me again if you have something." After speaking, Mu Lao dodged out of the waterfall.
Lin Tian was stunned in place: What? Accommodation and food at your own expense? This is a pitfall!
Forget it, let's take it one step at a time. After speaking, Lin Tian began to look at the cave, the area of the cave is not large, the length and width are nearly dozens of zhang, the top of the mountain wall is dripping with water droplets, there are two apricot trees at the entrance of the cave, full of unripe apricots. There is a square stone platform in the farthest part of the cave, which is just right for cultivation.
Thinking of this, Lin Tian walked to the stone platform and sat down cross-legged. began to carefully comprehend the cultivation method that Mu Lao had just left for him.
When he felt that he had mastered the mental method, he sank into his mind and began to operate the mental formula. With the operation of the mental method, he felt that his seven meridians and eight veins suddenly became active, and he could clearly feel each of his meridians. Gradually, he felt a hair-thin aura in the cave begin to enter his body through his limbs.
So he began to run the meridians, allowing the aura to flow along the avenue meridians towards the dantian.
It was a success the first time! Lin Tian was overjoyed in his heart.
Suddenly, he noticed that something was wrong, those traces of aura that should have been thinking about the dantian were actually sucked away by the bones when they passed by his bones!
What's going on? Lin Tian was suspicious in his heart. It may be that the aura absorbed by himself was too little, and it was sucked away by the limbs.
Immediately, Lin Tian recondensed his mind and operated his mental method, and in this way, the aura in the cave slowly entered Lin Tian's body.
Two hours later, Lin Tian opened his eyes, but his brows were furrowed. Because he found that no matter how much aura he absorbed, it would be sucked away by the bones.
If you can't transport the spiritual energy into the dantian, you won't be able to gather the qi yourself. Lin Tian scratched his head frantically, how should this be good.
Could it be that my cultivation method is wrong? Or is the exercise given by Mu Lao wrong? The more Lin Tian thought about it, the more wrong it became. So he carefully comprehended the exercises given to him by Mu Lao again.
That's right! What's the problem? Lin Tian was silent.
Half a quarter of an hour later, he decided to go out and ask Mu Lao clearly, if he couldn't solve this problem, no matter how much he cultivated, it was meaningless.
So he jumped up and walked to the entrance of the cave.
When he walked to the entrance of the cave, he found that outside the entrance of the cave was a waterfall hundreds of zhang wide, and below the waterfall was a rushing river.
This...... I can't get out! Lin Tianhua was in place.
After pacing in place for a moment, he decided: Mu Lao! A loud shout shouted out of the cave.
However, there was no response.
Mu Lao ..... Mu Lao...... Lin Tian hissed with all his strength.
Still no response.
After shouting for half an hour, Lin Tian was so tired that he sat down on the ground. This Mu Lao is also too unreliable, obviously he said that he would give me secret training, but as a result, he passed on an exercise and disappeared, Lin Tian muttered in a low voice.
Suddenly, with a bang, a person broke through the waterfall and jumped in: shout something! What to shout. I'm afraid I won't hear you when you shout so loudly. I saw Mu Lao appear in front of Lin Tian's eyes, and there was not a drop of water on his clothes.
Seeing this, Lin Tian rubbed his nose and slandered in his heart: I haven't seen you respond to this for a long time.
What's up? Go ahead. Mu Lao asked impatiently.
Then Lin Tian told him what had just happened in his cultivation,
Well? And what's going on? Mu Lao's brows furrowed when he heard this. Could it be that your innate martial bones have sucked away the aura? Mu Lao's eyes lit up.
Immediately, he pressed his hand on Lin Tian's shoulder, and suddenly Lin Tian only felt a thick Xuan Qi entering his body, and when this Xuan Qi swam through his limbs and hundreds of remains, without exception, they were all sucked away by his own bones.
Feeling the changes in the Xuan Qi in Lin Tian's body, Mu Lao withdrew his hand, and his brows furrowed even deeper: I have never encountered such a thing.
When Lin Tian heard this, he was extremely disappointed, he thought that there was something wrong with his cultivation method, and he never thought that even Mu Lao would be helpless. What should I do? As soon as I stepped into the path of cultivation, I encountered this problem. If you can't do this problem, I'm afraid that I won't be able to make a breakthrough in cultivation for the rest of my life. Thinking of this, Lin Tian's heart was cold.
In this way, you continue to cultivate in the cave, and come in according to the exercises to run the aura to the dantian. I'll go back and discuss it with the sect master. The words were closed, and Mu Lao disappeared into the cave in a flash.
Lin Tian was in an extremely low mood, at this moment he seemed to have just ignited his fighting spirit, and he was extinguished by the ruthless fire of reality.
Maybe a dead horse should be a live horse doctor. Maybe the bones will absorb enough spiritual energy, and they won't suck it anymore. Thinking of this, Lin Tian jumped onto the stone platform again and began to cultivate.
A day passed like this, and Lin Tian tried countless times, but he was still the same as before, and his mind was tired. I don't know how long it took, he leaned against the stone wall and fell asleep slowly.
The next day, when the sun shone into the cave through the waterfall, Lin Tian slowly opened his eyes.
Sit up and stretch. Suddenly I felt my stomach tumbling with hunger, I hadn't eaten for a day of cultivation yesterday, no wonder I was so hungry. But the cave seemed to find no food other than the two unripe apricots. Lin Tian was speechless for a moment, this Mu Lao is too inappropriate, he takes care of his own food and lodging, how can he take care of himself.
Senior brother, suddenly there was the sound of Mu Xue outside the cave. Then, with a bang, a figure walked through the waterfall to the cave.
Lin Tianding looked at it: it was Mu Xue, who was still carrying a basket of wild fruits and hot rice in his hand.
Seeing this, Lin Tian rushed forward and gave a big hug: Senior sister, you are really too timely!
When she felt that Lin Tian had touched somewhere, Mu Xue turned around and grinned: Hehe, you only found out now. I just heard from my master that you are cultivating in this cave, and I thought that you must be hungry, so I will bring you some food.
Senior sister, you are really good, as soon as Lin Tian took the basket, he devoured it.
Mu Xue squatted aside, holding her chin with both hands and looking at Lin Tian blankly: Senior brother, have you broken through to the Qi Gathering Period? With Mu Lao's guidance, he should be able to break through soon.
Lin Tian was stunned when he heard this, and then told Mu Xue about the problems he had encountered in his cultivation in the past two days.
Mu Xue frowned slightly when she heard this: What can I do? If you can't gather qi, you won't be able to break through to the qi gathering period.
It's okay, senior sister. Mu Lao has already gone back to discuss with the sect master, and I believe that there will be a solution soon. Seeing Mu Xue's worries, Lin Tian comforted.
Well, it's just a matter of taking one step at a time. Mu Xue shook her head.
Immediately, Mu Xue explained her cultivation experience during the Qi Gathering Period to Lin Tian in detail, and then packed up the basket and said, "Senior brother, I'm going back." If the master knew that I was coming to you, he would have to give me a lecture.
Well, senior sister, go back. I continued to cultivate.
Seeing Mu Xue leave the cave, Lin Tian returned to the stone platform to continue cultivating.
Diligence can make up for shortcomings, and he believes that no matter what difficulties he encounters, he must continue to cultivate.
