When the woodcutter said this, Ao Qing faintly understood: "Could it be that the 'Dao' mentioned by Senior Brother is similar to dissolving 'artistic conception' into skills?" ”

In his previous life, Ao Qing had also heard that ancient China had "kendo", "sword way", "tea ceremony", "flower arrangement", "incense way" and so on.

Different from "sword skills", "knife skills", "tea art", "flower arrangement", "incense", etc., those with "Tao" pay more attention to artistic conception, such as flower arrangement, which is not so much flower arrangement, but rather the use of flower arrangement to cultivate the mind and body.

It's a bit like "monasticism." However, it is more accurate to say that the Tao is applied to the craft.

Yes.

If you think about it, maybe that's true!

Simple skills, if you want to practice to the level of "cooking", it is indeed not easy for mortals. But for an immortal like Ao Qing, it was not difficult.

However, there is a limit to "skill".

No matter how skilled he is, it is impossible to turn one cow into two cows!

The oil seller stands with his burden relieved, dripping oil from the money hole, and not a drop is leaked. But it's also impossible to pour one bottle of oil into two.

It can be said that the skills of mortals have reached the level of "cooking and solving cattle", which is already the limit.

Even not just the skills of mortals, the spells of immortals, are the same.

The Zhou Tian Changing Technique is a very simple example. No matter how skillful Ao Qing is, he will not be much stronger than Seventy-Two.

In "Journey to the West", Sun Wukong, Erlang God, and Bull Demon King's change techniques are almost the same, because they have almost reached the "bottleneck".

This is also why, although Nezha has passed 50,000 years, he is indeed very powerful, but for Ao Qing, it is not much worse.

Because Nezha's skills, and even Zhou Tian's change technique, have reached a "bottleneck".

If you want to go further, you can't just go further from the perspective of "practicing martial arts", but also from the aspect of "Dao Heart".

However, what if the "artistic conception" is integrated into the technique?

So can this skill break through the bottleneck and have no upper limit?

Quite possibly!

Ao Qing can deeply feel the gap brought by the "artistic conception".

Many people do the same thing, but just because the "artistic conception" is different, the results are completely different.

It's not even just the artistic conception that can break through the bottleneck of craftsmanship. Skills will also feed back people's own artistic conception.

Kendo, practicing swordsmanship, swordsmanship will also change people's body and mind.

In the same way, the same is true for the way of the sword, the flower ceremony, the tea ceremony, the incense ceremony, the calligraphy ceremony, and so on.

The simplest example, people from all walks of life, tend to bring the temperament of all walks of life.

Experienced teachers, veteran craftsmen, and high-ranking people are all human beings, but they give people different feelings and temperaments.

In fact, for today's Ao Qing, he really lacks these artistic conceptions!

He cultivated Zhou Tian's Transformation Technique and martial arts, but he only regarded it as a Dao protection technique, and did not integrate his own artistic conception into it.

Even if it is Zhou Tian's change technique, the woodcutter's perception of the "state of mind", although Ao Qing knows it, he doesn't dare to say that he can really have any real personal experience of those flowers and trees, birds and beasts.

As for the Four Fruit Side Door and the Great Grade Heavenly Immortal Formula, they are only cultivated for the sake of cultivation.

If anything, it can really be related to "artistic conception". That's the Mixed Yuan Dragon Ball and the Yuan Shen Qinglian.

However, the Mixed Yuan Dragon Ball is actually Ao Qing's artistic conception of feeling the Dragon Ancestor Emperor, and it cannot be said to be his own artistic conception. And Yuanshen Qinglian is even more so.

The Yuanshen Qinglian itself carries the meaning of "pure mind". For Ao Qing, it is more like a magic weapon that carries the primordial gods.

This "pure mind" is not Ao Qing's own!

Therefore, at present, what Ao Qing lacks is precisely this integration of "artistic conception" into skills.

Thinking of this, Ao Qing couldn't help but suddenly realize. No wonder, the patriarch said that the woodcutter wanted to give himself a creation, not just a magical power!

The woodcutter was also very surprised when he heard Ao Qing say this, and said, "Senior brother is really smart, I didn't expect to guess the essence of the 'Dao' I said so easily. It seems that you really have the qualifications to inherit my supernatural powers! ”

"Magical powers?"

Ao Qing looked at the woodcutter.

"Not bad."

The woodcutter said: "Senior brother, do you still remember that when you came out of the mountain, I said that if you have any understanding of the martial arts I teach, I will teach you another magical power?" Now, the junior brother is qualified enough. But it's time to fulfill my promise for my brother! It's just that my magical power is not a big deal, it's just some skills in chopping mountains and wood, but I'm afraid that my junior brother will dislike it. ”

Ao Qing said: "Why is Senior Brother so modest? Besides, my senior brother is as kind to me as a mountain, and what he teaches must be a method with great magical powers. Even if it is really a method of chopping wood, Ao Qing will definitely study it carefully and dare not live up to it! ”

The woodcutter smiled: "In this case, I will demonstrate it, and the junior brother will have to look carefully." ”

Ao Qing said: "Okay! There's Senior Brother Lao! ”

The woodcutter nodded, picked up his axe, and turned to face northwest.

Immediately, calm your breath and close your eyes slightly.

In an instant, Ao Qing felt a fierce momentum and rose to the sky.

That momentum was like a sharp sword, piercing straight into the sky.

It reminded Ao Qing of the sense of crisis he felt when he became a big tree blocking the road.

This power was just in the competition, and the woodcutter did not use it!

It seems that in the contest of talents, the woodcutter did not use all his strength.

But then, Ao Qing knew why the woodcutter didn't use all his strength.

I saw that the fierce momentum that soared into the sky suddenly and slowly converged. Soon, the momentum gradually spread around the woodcutter.

At this moment, Ao Qing only felt that the woodcutter's whole person had changed, and he seemed to have become a giant who stepped on the sky.

On his body, an inexplicable shock suddenly appeared, terrifying and terrifying!

However, in fact, judging from the appearance, I felt that this woodcutter was no different from just now.

Perhaps this is the so-called "artistic conception".

In the next moment, the woodcutter moved.

He lifted the axe and picked up the axe. The wood-chopping axe seemed to weigh more than ten thousand pounds in his hand.

There seemed to be some kind of piety in the woodcutter's eyes.

He slowly lifted his axe and suddenly looked into the void.

"Buzz".

There was a soft sound. Then, it seems, something, is spreading to the northwest.

But soon, it disappeared as if nothing had happened.

The woodcutter turned around and put away his axe: "Senior brother, can you see clearly?" ”

Ao Qing was stunned.

What happened? What did Brother Woodcutter do?

At the same time as he had this doubt.

The next moment......

Thundered......!!!

For some reason, there was a loud noise in the northwest that seemed to be the sky falling.

Ao Qing looked steeply to the northwest.

However, I saw that the dust was swirling, and a large cloud of smoke and dust rose into the sky in the northwest, which could not dissipate for a long time.

The 100,000 mountains in the northwest were divided into two halves almost at the same time at this moment, and then the rolling stones roared, and they all collapsed!!
