Chapter 20: On the Word
Shen Yuetian woke up early before it was pitch black, and seeing that Gu Nian and Xiao Huan were still sleeping deeply, he got up lightly and went out of the house, sitting on the edge of the waterhole to practice qi. Wisps of water vapor can be seen above the black hole-like pool, and the moss growing along the walls of the pool has formed frost.
After entering the second grade, Shen Yue no longer felt much of this level of coldness, and began to absorb spiritual energy without being disturbed at all. At the end of the cultivation, I found that it was already bright, and it was estimated that I had practiced for at least more than an hour, and the effect was good, and the water vapor around my body had indeed accelerated the absorption of the spiritual energy of the wood genus better.
He remembered the "Spring Water Formula" he got from the slain official, and planned to study this water system exercise book carefully, and was just about to go back to the house to get it, when he ran into a sleepy-eyed Gu Nian and walked out of the house. Because of the grass and trees on the mat he slept on last night, his handsome face was like a plant fossil, and there were marks everywhere. He greeted Shen Yue blankly, and went straight to the waterhole to wash.
Shen Yue originally thought that this guy had already gotten up to cultivate, but who knew that he had slept until now, and he couldn't help but sigh again that if the laziest monk was selected, this product would definitely be among the best.
For the sake of prudence, he dismissed the plan to immediately take out the "Spring Water Formula", wanting to inquire about what kind of routine it was to practice other exercises first, so he walked up to Gu Nian and asked, "Does your sect only cultivate metal aura?" ”
Gu Nian said vaguely while rinsing his mouth: "How is it possible, our sect cultivates everything, and many people cultivate multiple sects at the same time. ”
Shen Yue's eyes lit up, and he asked sideways, "Cultivating multiple doors at the same time?" That should be much more powerful than a single one, why don't you fix it? ”
Gu Nian glanced at Shen Yue strangely and said, "You have seen it all, I didn't get up until now, do you think I am such a diligent person?" It's enough to choke on one! ”
Shen Yuexin said: You are real.
Gu Nian then sighed with emotion: "Qi Dao monks cultivate more of the five elements, and martial arts monks cultivate more yin and yang. Some people are naturally close to a variety of Five Elements Aura, and cultivating Qi Dao can get twice the result with half the effort. Some people are very sensitive to the two qi of yin and yang, and the practice of martial arts is naturally like a tiger's wings. Take me as an example, in addition to metal aura, I also have a good understanding of water aura, but I'm just too lazy to practice. Those who are slow to comprehend all kinds of spiritual energy will find it difficult to improve, and many ordinary people and even the children of the sect and the government are like this, unless they spend a lot of effort to improve their physique, or they can only get twice the result with half the effort if they don't practice! ”
Shen Yue was puzzled: "Wouldn't those who are qualified to practice multiple methods have an advantage?" ”
"How can you think that?" Gu Nian despised Shen Yue and said: "This is not counting, if you have more, you will win, this is cultivation, big brother, even if you only cultivate one method, you will cultivate to the top, and you will still be able to cross the tribulation, and you will still be extraordinary." If you don't have the talent to automatically absorb a variety of spiritual energy when you sleep, then the time in a day is simply not enough. ”
He gestured with his hand and explained, "For example, if you practice the three Fa and have the same qualifications, the time for each Fa will definitely not be as abundant as the time for others to specialize in one Fa or two Fa, and in the end, whether it is fighting or breaking through the grade, they will all rely more on the highest Fa to practice. If you cultivate all three dharmas to the fourth grade, and others have one dharma to cultivate to the fifth grade, this is the suppression of you in the realm of cultivation. Cultivation is a struggle with the sky, and if you don't enter the eight grades, even if you are an emperor, you can't live forever, and you only have a few hundred years of life. Many people are blindly confident in their own qualifications, and finally divide their time evenly on different spiritual qi practices, but in the end, none of them can break through the eight realms, and they can only die gloomily. Because of this, my master didn't force me to practice the water method at the same time. ”
Shen Yue always felt that Gu Nian's words were plausible when he heard this, but after careful experience, it did make sense, he still planned to practice other spiritual methods to try, when he first started practicing, he decided to experience all the new things in this world, and cultivating multiple methods was naturally one of them.
Gu Nian saw that Shen Yue's expression was a little gloomy at first, but he quickly returned to normal, knowing that this guy must want to cultivate a variety of spiritual qi, although his theory is also a relatively common view in the cultivation realm, but what if this guy in front of him is a cultivation wizard! He didn't want to dampen Shen Yue's enthusiasm, so he encouraged: "Your speculation actually has some truth, if the two of them have the same realm of the Dharma, then the cultivation of multiple Dharma will definitely be stronger, and the fighting will be more advantageous. There are a lot of amazing talents in this world, and there are not a few people who practice many methods and do not fall behind, and you may be one of them! ”
Shen Yue rolled his eyes in his heart, and said emotionally: "Thank you for lifting me, I just wondered, isn't the five elements mutually reinforcing?" If you practice multiple methods and use one aura to induce another aura to increase, won't you be able to speed up your cultivation progress? ”
Gu Nian looked at Shen Yue helplessly and said, "Everyone understands this truth, but if it's just to induce a kind of aura, isn't it a bit too laborious to practice the aura of mutual birth?" For example, if you practice wood method near the water, because the water grows wood, the cultivation effect is indeed better. Since you can find this ideal environment in the outside world to help induce the wood spiritual energy, why do you have to spend time and effort to get the water spiritual energy into the body first, and then assist in the practice of the wood method? You just sit in the waterhole and fix it! Wouldn't it save more time to rush to the realm! ”
When Shen Yue heard this, he finally figured out the problem of Gu Nian's theory: it was too utilitarian! Everything is for the sake of breaking through the realm faster, and impacting towards the eight-rank immortal vision, so the benefits of cultivating the Dharma at the same time are also diluted by this utilitarianism. But there is no way to do it, just like Gu Nian said, if it is less than eight grades, it only has a lifespan of a few hundred years, and no matter how well you cultivate multiple methods, it is not the same as burping.
Gu Nian doesn't like this utilitarian attitude very much, in his previous life, it was because he pursued utilitarianism everywhere that he made himself 996 a day, busy but without any sense of accomplishment, even if he bought a house and a car with hard work, what could he do, all the good experiences that life should have were missed, and every time he lay in bed and recalled his youth, he felt that his time was wasted.
At this time, he decided: No matter what, he must practice other spiritual methods, and with his own efforts, he will forge a path! Don't why you live forever, just to prove yourself step by step!
Gu Nian saw that Shen Yue's eyes became more and more determined, and he knew that this guy must be working hard to cultivate multiple methods, and said with a smile: "Do you know that there is a kind of person in this world who is called the Dao Body, also known as the "Mortal Immortal"? ”
Shen Yue was surprised: "What is that?" ”
Gu Nian saw that he didn't know, and said proudly: "It is said that that kind of person has excellent qualifications for the five elements or yin and yang qi, and it is very easy to understand all kinds of aura, even if he is asleep, he can perform exercises on his own, and the aura is endlessly growing in his body. But it's been a long time since there has been such a person. I read in the book that once such a person appears, he will descend on the heavens, which is not tolerated by the way of heaven. The forces of all parties will also deliberately snatch and even kill, and there will be many disasters and difficulties along the way. ”
Shen Yue asked curiously, "Is there a clear record of such a person?" ”
"Yes, the last person with such qualifications appeared in Southern Xinjiang five hundred years ago, and he was an ordinary monk. In the Holy Beast Phoenix, oh, you don't know about the Holy Beast, do you? The holy beast is even higher than the spirit beast, it is an existence that is looked up to in the heavenly realm, and the holy beasts that are known now are the phoenix and the kunpeng. One day, the sacred beast phoenix suddenly fell from the heavenly realm into the mountains of southern Xinjiang, seriously injured, and on the verge of nirvana, and the demons and ghosts in the mountains all wanted to devour the phoenix in order to soar. In times of crisis, the monk stepped forward and risked his life to help the Phoenix achieve nirvana. In order to thank him, the phoenix used the blood of the true phoenix to wash his whole body before ascending, stabilize his soul, help him achieve the Five Elements Dao Body, and personally blocked the catastrophe for him. After he woke up, he cultivated for a long time, but soon attracted the attention of all forces and looted, and his entire clan was affected, with heavy casualties. ”
Shen Yue sighed when he heard this: "This is really a blessing and a curse, and a blessing is in waiting." ”
Gu Nian was surprised: "Wow, these two sentences of yours are really incisive, I have to write them down and take them as my words in the future." ”
Shen Yue nudged him and said, "Young poverty, what happened later?" ”
"Later, in order to take revenge on those forces, that person hid in the 100,000 mountains, but in just 20 years, he achieved the realm of the Eight Rank Tribulation. Many major forces were destroyed by him, and even the imperial court at that time suffered huge losses. The court of the previous dynasty was also greatly injured because of this, which laid the groundwork for the later demise of the country. Although the monk was vengeful, he did not kill innocents indiscriminately, and after solving the culprit forces that killed his people, he flew straight away. Because his killing was too heavy, even the Flying Ascension Thunder Tribulation increased from the original eighty-one to three hundred and sixty-five, but he still finally broke through. It is said that when the final ascension suddenly a hundred birds chirped in unison, a hundred beasts roared together, and the phoenix came to greet it in person, and the momentum was extremely magnificent. ”
Shen Yue listened with relish, and couldn't help but fantasize that he had suddenly become a Dao body, an invincible existence in the world, like a big man, being greeted by the immortals of the Heavenly Realm when he ascended.
