Chapter 51: First Cultivation

"Well, it's okay, anyway, there's still a lot of time, these days you still focus on cultivation, at least until you leave me, most of the cultivation costs still don't need you to worry about." Li Ming also nodded, and at the same time pointed to the booklet in Tian Jihong's hand and said, "Okay, I have talked to you enough today, and I have a little time left to explain the content of this self-cultivation recipe to you word by word." Half an hour later, we will begin to prepare for the night action, and then I will use my soul sense to slowly wake up the old seven outside the door; The two of you only need to extinguish the candle and go to bed, and the teacher will also make the illusion of staying in the house to rest, so that the old seven will not dare to easily enter the house to deal with the three of us alone, so that he can only choose to escape outside to find his companion while I am unprepared. ”

"After that, you two will stay in the house and don't go anywhere, you don't have to worry about anything if you have a teacher to take care of you, and I'll take care of the rest. If you're lucky, the teacher will be able to wipe out this group at dawn and force him to find out the whereabouts of his boss. Li Ming's tone still sounded very relaxed, not at all like a person who was about to break into the tiger's den alone, and he didn't seem to have taken this group of bandits in his eyes at all.

Tian Jihong had to sigh in his heart that he was bold, and then he put great enthusiasm into the health care formula in his hand, and secretly imagined that one day he would be able to be like the master, and he would have such a confident demeanor in his gestures.

“… Guarding the heart of the dantian, qi hui yuanyi, fan zhu liangyi, and the end of the breath is for the sake of self-cultivation..."Under the hard reading of Tianjihong, half an hour passed quickly. With Tian Jihong's talent, it is not difficult to memorize such a simple Yellow Rank Mental Method as the secret of self-cultivation. During this period of time, with the help of Li Ming, Tian Jihong had roughly skimmed through the text of the thin dozen pages, except for a few things that he didn't understand and asked Li Ming, the rest of the content was clear in Tian Jihong's opinion. At this time, Tian Jihong can clearly sense a trace of aura flowing in the air around him through the study of body cultivation techniques, and at this time, he only needs to complete the breathing according to the follow-up steps mentioned in the book, which does not seem to be as difficult as outsiders said at the beginning.

But when he was full of confidence and tried to absorb the aura of his body with the encouragement of Master Li, Tian Jihong finally understood the gap between what Li Ming said about practice and theory. Just absorbing the first wisp of meager spiritual energy with the thickness of an index finger into his body took Tianjihong nearly ten minutes, and during this period, there were many cases of induction interruption or spiritual energy blockage, and he needed to ask Li Ming for advice from time to time. In the past ten minutes, he asked more questions to the master than he had done in more than half an hour of familiarizing himself with the mental method, and in the end, Tian Jihong, who was sweating profusely, almost collapsed on the couch tired after successfully absorbing the first wisp of spiritual energy.

"Alright, don't be there with a sad face, you kid." Li Ming couldn't help but laugh and scolded when he saw this scene, "How can cultivation be as simple as you imagined, the description of the inner strength and mental method is just an introduction, it is about the fundamental method of cultivation, and to apply the method reasonably and completely to the actual cultivation, you need to constantly try and run-in." Your kid was able to absorb the first wisp of aura in a quarter of an hour under the guidance of the master, which is already a very amazing efficiency, and the efficiency of the second practice in the future will be significantly improved. But now is not the time to rest, you should quickly get up and use the mental method to refine this aura and transform it into spiritual power in the meridians. When the aura runs around you, the tiredness on your body will naturally disappear. ”

Hearing this, Tian Jihong had no choice but to drag his almost collapsed body to sit cross-legged on the bed again, slightly close his eyes under the curious gaze of his younger brother on the side, and began to urge this first wisp of spiritual energy to operate in the meridians according to the description of the body cultivation formula. At this time, he was surprised to find that, as Master said, when this aura containing the power of the origin of heaven and earth irrigated his whole body, his body suddenly seemed to be bathing in a hot spring, and an indescribable sense of comfort spread from the dantian, until his whole body became soothed.

And after that aura crossed the veins and was constantly compressed into more refined spiritual power, Tian Jihong only felt that he was a hundred times more radiant and energetic at this time, and even he could clearly perceive the increase in the strength in his body, and the flesh and bones of his whole body had become a little stronger under the washing of spiritual power, and the healing rate of the wounds he had suffered in the previous battle had also increased significantly.

Tian Jihong just heard Master say that the absorption of the first ray of spiritual energy is the most crucial. This not only means that you have found a suitable method for your own cultivation, but also makes it easier to absorb the aura again in the future; At the same time, the first ray of aura is also the most obvious effect on the baptism in the mortal body, and the feeling of his rebirth at this moment is an unprecedented experience in his life. He even felt that the fatigue of the half-day struggle between life and death had turned into smoke at this time, and he was afraid that his body could remain so energetic all night. It is no wonder that Master once said that after a monk reaches a certain level of cultivation, cultivation alone can replace the time of daily sleep, and he can also burst out with more energy.

However, the appearance of none of the above soul power made Tian Jihong even more excited. When the first wisp of aura reached his head under the operation of the exercises, Tian Jihong could clearly feel that his sea of consciousness seemed to be opened by a key, and the things in front of him became clearer in an instant, and his mind seemed to have a new understanding of the outline and details of everything in the world. Needless to say, what this aura brings to Tian Jihong is the activation of soul consciousness, compared to the recovery of physical strength in the body, this is the main reason why Tian Jihong really feels energetic.

It's just that the monk's soul power needs to be cultivated by himself like his spiritual power, and after this moment of comfort, Tianjihong's soul power did not continue to improve. At this time, he had not yet learned the cultivation method of soul power, and he did not know how to lock the direction of the outside world through soul consciousness like other monks. But it was the sublimation of this moment that really made Tian Jihong understand the difference between monks and mortals, the former urging the soul consciousness to look at things, and mortals observing through vision are two completely different things.

Even in Tian Jihong's view, monks and mortals are fundamentally two levels of beings. Looking back, whether it is the fourth child he has fought against before or the rabbit and mouse king he met today, his real strength is still too far behind that of a real monk. Judging from his current feelings, it is a miracle that a mortal wants to crusade against a monk with only his strength, at least he is absolutely not sure that he can take advantage of any move under the soul sense of a real monk, at most he can only rely on his own physical fitness to deal with the other party.

This transformation, like a rebirth, caused Tianjihong to have an extreme greed, and he wanted to immediately sweep away the aura in this room and incorporate it into his body. However, just when Tian Jihong was trying to use the exercises again to absorb more spiritual energy, Li Ming, who saw that his mind was unstable, stopped him in time and said sharply: "Pay attention to guarding the gods and paying attention!" You kid must remember that cultivation is about calmness and unity of mind and mind, and the absorption and operation of spiritual energy is not only the tempering of the body, but also the polishing of one's own state of mind. If you have distracting thoughts between breathing, the spiritual power transformed will also hide a bit of anger, and it will take a lot of effort to get rid of it in the future. ”

"Now that you have started cultivating for the first time, it is understandable that you have condensed your first spiritual power, but when it comes to cultivation, you can't do it quickly. After you have just completed your first cultivation with great effort, even if your physical exhaustion can be resolved by spiritual power, the violent fluctuations in your spirit are no longer suitable for cultivation. ”

This timely reminder was like a basin of cold water poured on the top of Tian Jihong's head, and he was as wise as he immediately realized that he was just as Master said, at this time, because of the greed in his heart, he began to become eager for quick success, and if this kind of practice continued, it would only be half the result. So after slowly exhaling a breath of turbid air, Tian Jihong opened his slightly closed eyes and cast a grateful look at the master, and then under the latter's prompting, he began to ponder every detail of the aura just absorbed in his mind, and at the same time slowly cleared many distracting thoughts in his heart, preparing for further cultivation in the future.

Seeing that the apprentice on the couch had listened to his teachings, Li Ming also showed a satisfied expression, and silently took Tianjihong, who refused to leave, outside the house, leaving Tianjihong a quiet space to complete the follow-up meditation. At this time, it was close to midnight, and under the clear moonlit sky, the seventh child in the courtyard of the two of them had already begun to twitch slightly, and Li Ming knew that it was time to act. After a few brief words of instruction to Tianji, he once again released a soul sense to the old seven who was about to wake up, and according to Li Ming's estimation, this guy should gradually regain consciousness within a few minutes.

Immediately afterward, the two hurriedly extinguished the lights in the room and closed the windows to create the appearance that the occupants had fallen asleep. However, in order to prevent this old seven from taking risks and breaking into the room alone to kill, Li Ming deliberately left a gap in the door facing the bright moonlight, and moved a chair in the house to sit on it, pretending to be in a state of meditation. In this way, even if the old seven outside the house intentionally attacked the people in the house after breaking free of the rope, he would clearly see his appearance through the crack in the door before entering the door. Li Ming knew that this old seventh would never dare to act rashly in front of the monk, and the only way left for him was to turn around and run away.
