Trinity: Technique, Dharma, and Dao

The first thing Li Sui'an did when he returned to the sect was to go straight to the Inner Gate Scripture Pavilion.

It's still the old man.

Li Sui'an respectfully sent a spirit stone and a jar of spirit wine.

He didn't find out what hobbies this Hidden Scripture Pavilion elder had.

But the last time I dealt with him, I vaguely smelled a hint of wine on him, and this time I specially carried a jar of first-order spirit wine up the mountain.

The old man looked at him coldly, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Elder, please don't get me wrong, the disciple just wants to ask you some spell questions. This altar of spiritual wine was obtained by the disciple by chance, and he specially honored the elders. ”

Hearing this, the old man stroked his beard, stretched out his hand, and the spirit wine fell in the palm of his hand, "The immortal is drunk...... Hehe, this is the spirit wine that is a specialty of the Medicine Yuan Sect, no wonder the old man smelled a smell of medicinal wine from afar. ”

"Your kid is not small, and you can even get the spirit wine of the Medicine Yuan Sect."

Li Sui'an became more and more respectful, "Elder, the disciple did spend a lot of spirit stones to buy this altar of spirit wine from a traveling merchant, but he didn't know where it came from. ”

The old man nodded with satisfaction, "Say, what questions do you want to ask?" ”

"The disciple wants to ask, is there a collection of spells in the Hidden Scripture Pavilion that have a similar effect to the Soul Devouring Formula?"

"That's it?"

Li Sui'an nodded again.

The old man thought for a while and said, "District A is thirty-six, District B is one hundred and forty-eight, and your own district is forty-two, you can all take a look." Boy, you're cultivating the basic qi collection chapter of the Taiyin Soul Refining Sutra, right? ”

"Yes, Elder."

"The "Taiyin Soul Refining Sutra" collected in the Scripture Pavilion is not complete, and it can only be practiced to the realm of Tongshen. If you get ten more jars of spirit wine for the old man, and ask for different spirit wines, the old man will tell you a piece of information about the Taiyin Soul Refining Sutra. ”

Li Sui'an hesitated slightly, a jar of spirit wine is worth a lot of money...... Baitan spirit wine does not conform to his identity as a poor egg.

But it should still be done, "The disciple will try to do it." ”

"Go ahead."

Li Sui'an immediately found three techniques in three places on the first floor of the Scripture Pavilion.

'Soul Sacrifice' can be used to sacrifice ghost power to beings in the underworld through the altar to provide powerful support to teammates, such as instantly recovering a large amount of life force or mana or soul power, and after this spell is used, the caster himself will be temporarily weakened.

'Plague Swallowing Ghost Disaster Elimination Talisman', the soul of the soul is transformed into essence and written into the rune, swallowing the charm into the abdomen, the sick qi dissipates, and the medicine king blesses and restores health. It is mainly used to treat diseases.

The 'Summoning Five Ghosts Soul Spell' can extract a part of the soul power from the enemy, causing the enemy's consciousness to be confused. If you extract too much soul power, you will fall into a deep sleep.

Three techniques, each with its own merits.

It's not quite what I expected.

He could only regret letting go and find the old man again.

"What, not satisfied?"

The old man seemed to have expected such a reaction.

Li Sui'an said respectfully: "Elder, what the disciple is looking for is a spell that has a similar effect to cultivating the Divine Soul with the Soul Devouring Technique. ”

"Do you know what spells, what tricks are?" The old man didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.

Seeing that the old man seemed to be talking about sex, Li Sui'an hurriedly asked for advice.

"The disciple doesn't know, please ask the elder for guidance."

The old man shook his head, took a sip of wine, stroked his beard and said, "Magic, law, and Tao." ”

"Technique is inferior wisdom, it is technology, it is the means to achieve the end. The spell is just a simple skill of invoking the aura, which can be mastered by learning and repeated exercise. And users often only know its use, but do not know its reason. There are many cultivators, there are many people who use the technique, and there are few people who can use the hearth fire. ”

"Dharma is the wisdom of the middle vehicle, and it is the method."

"Although we do not have an accurate grasp of the fundamental principles of the operation of Reiki, we can also make favorable decisions about the situation and take appropriate measures. It is a more advanced use of Reiki, self-learning with knowledge, and a higher level of understanding of the arts. Once you have mastered the Fa, you will no longer be a confused charlatan. ”

"The Tao is superior wisdom, and it has been able to initially peek into the laws of everything and understand the mystery of Shengke's changes."

"No matter how complex and volatile the situation is, we can always anticipate things and take advantage of them. The so-called 'inner saint and outer king', who has mastered the laws of heaven internally, will be invincible and will inevitably realize the royal road of external deeds. ”

"The three techniques that the old man pointed out to you are just the skills of using them. No matter how you use it, it won't hurt the roots. ”

"The old man remembers that you exchanged the 'Soul Eater Formula', although the 'Soul Eater Formula' is not perfect, it still belongs to the category of 'law'. Under the legal principle, the effect is powerful. However, the anti-devouring effect of the Soul Devouring Technique is also powerful, and long-term cultivation will cause endless troubles. ”

"If you abandon the 'law' and chase the 'technique', and you abandon the basics and chase the end, you will naturally fail to meet your psychological expectations."

"Boy, don't look for it, no matter how many techniques you find, you won't be able to achieve the effect of the Fa, what you should be looking for is the 'Dao'. "Taiyin Soul Refining Sutra" is a powerful divine soul classic, pointing directly to the avenue. However, the whole book has long disappeared in the long river of time, a pity, a pity. ”

Maybe it's for the sake of this altar of spiritual wine, the old man has something to say.

Li Sui'an also heard his advice to himself, and asked himself not to indulge too much in the shortcuts of "Soul Eater".

I can't help but have a good impression of this old man.

But there is a lot in his words.

Li Sui'an had never heard such far-sighted arguments before, and he benefited a lot.

I also think about my own situation.

He has now mastered quite a few of the means.

The most powerful of these is undoubtedly the supernatural power, which represents the 'Tao'.

But he only existed in the stage of 'art', and naturally he couldn't control the 'Dao', so he could only use it mechanically.

Although the Soul Eater Technique is only a minor technique, it is also a 'Fa', and it is a practice that can improve cultivation to the Tao.

How can he find an answer similar to the 'Fa' in 'Shu'?

Immediately, Li Sui'an thought of the concept of the supernatural power - infinite skill column.

The infinite skill bar restricts him to only put in skills and spells, which is the lowest level of 'spells'.

It is because it is at the bottom that the future changes will be endless, and there will be infinite possibilities.

Therefore, it must also be put in the 'technique'.

Seeing that he seemed to have understood, the old man couldn't help but nod slightly, "Boy, I'll give you another word." ”

"There is a limit to the soul devouring and refining spirit of the Soul Devouring Technique, and after the Qi training period, it is useless. The old man sees that you are clear-eyed and beautiful, and you know how to advance and retreat. should have listened to the old man's original advice, and he didn't indulge too much in "Soul Eater". Then get out of the shortcut as soon as possible. One by one, they are so ambitious, they just want to take shortcuts, how can the Xuanyin Sect compete with the steady and steady Heavenly Sword Sect in the long run. ”

Li Sui'an said, "Thank you for the elder's guidance, the disciple will remember it in my heart." Dare to ask the name of the elder? ”

"Hehe, just call me Lao Jiu, the old man is just a mountain guard, let's go."

He staggered, and then returned to lie down in the Scripture Pavilion.

Li Sui'an thanked him again.

When I walked back, I was still thinking about how to extract the 'Soul Eater' from the Soul Eater Technique......

That difficulty is undoubtedly the equivalent of creating a spell.

- I can't do it.

Even if he has already comprehended this technique thoroughly.

But it is impossible to reach the level of "creation".

I can only regret giving up.

Moreover, the "Soul Devouring Technique" actually has a limit, and it can only be applied to the Qi cultivation period, which he never expected.

He was already quite apprehensive about the shortcut method of the Soul Eater Formula, because the divine soul was so fast.

Fortunately, zombies and souls are all aliens.

And in the current situation, it is impossible to find a suitable replacement, so simply leave it for now.

With that in mind, he looked at the Infinite Skill Bar.

Put the [Empty] column and put it in 'Basic Swordplay'.

……

Inner Gate Mission Hall.

Li Sui'an wanted to see if there was a suitable task.

His contribution points have long since run out.

Contribution points are required to exchange cultivation resources, exchange exercises, etc.

Even if you find a favorite exercise, you must have enough contribution points to redeem it.

Spirit stones can also be exchanged for contributions, with a ratio of 10:1.

In turn, the contribution points are exchanged for spirit stones, which is 5:1.

No matter how rich the local tyrant is, he will not exchange this method for contribution value.

Li Sui'an saw the inheritance of the exercises of the Ming Realm in the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, and the lowest exchange price was also a thousand contribution points.

And an outer disciple, a task reward, is between 10 contributions.

Mission time: 1~5 days.

Remove the normal practice needs.

It will take more than ten years to save up enough for the exchange of inheritance.

Therefore, generally speaking, the outer disciples basically have no hope of exchanging the Ming Mind Realm exercises, and there is no need for this.

If the Ming Realm exercises are still like this, what about the upper level of the Divine Realm exercises?

Therefore, it is generally the inner disciples who have enough contributions to exchange for the inheritance of the Ming Mind Realm exercises.

There are, of course, exceptions.

If you can be listed in the "Xuanyin Thirteen Taibao", under the privilege, the price is naturally low, and you may be directly rewarded by the ancestors.

Or if you are favored by any elder and accepted under the door, you can also directly obtain the inheritance.

All in all.

The worse the strength, the more difficult it is to earn contributions.

But for some, it's simple. If you fancy a certain advanced exercise, you just need to work hard, and the higher your cultivation, the easier it is to make contributions.

The Inner Gate Mission Hall is really very different from the Outer Gate Mission Hall.

There are many tasks and rewards.

Some simple tasks such as running errands, gathering herbs, patrolling the mountains and hunting, mining and searching for spirits are no longer seen in the inner gate task hall.

Perhaps due to the influence of the previous war, most of the missions are related to the Mortal Realm.

For example, retaking a certain city, killing a genius of a certain level of the Heavenly Sword Sect, etc., all have a lot of contribution rewards.

Li Sui'an was looking at it energetically.

With his current strength, there are quite a few missions to choose from.

Most of the rewards for these tasks are between tens and hundreds of contribution points, and if everything goes well, it is enough to accumulate enough contributions to redeem the Enlightenment Realm exercises within three years.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside.

A large crowd gathered in the plaza outside the Mission Hall to watch.

Li Sui'an walked over curiously.

It turned out that the inner door was freshly baked than the rules.

"Senior Brother Li, I haven't seen you for a long time."

A voice rang out behind him.

"I heard that you entered the mass grave, that place is very dangerous, you have been there for three months, this perseverance and perseverance is really admired by my brother." It was Xu Yuan who spoke, an existence at the bottom of the inner door like him.

Three months ago, Xu Yuancai practiced Qi sixth-level cultivation.

Only slightly longer than Li Sui'an.

Today, he actually broke through to the late stage of Qi training, and his cultivation skyrocketed to the eighth level of Qi training.

I saw that his face was ruddy and refreshed, but at a young age, his temples were already gray.

What did this guy do?

"Senior Brother Xu, what are you? Congratulations to Senior Brother Xu for being promoted to the late stage of Qi training. ”

Li Sui'an showed just the right amount of surprise, envy, and flattering expression on his face.

Xu Yuan's face was colorful, "It's nothing, it's just a little chance." ”

"How did you get in the mass grave, how can you still not move forward in cultivation? Senior Brother Li, I didn't say you, if you accidentally fall into the final ranking, you can imagine the end, why are you so unmotivated. ”

The relationship between the two is not so close, and his pretending to be concerned about the reprimand is a kind of condescending manipulation.

Li Sui'an did not have the slightest impatience on his face: "Senior brother taught me a lesson." ”

Xu Yuan said earnestly: "Senior Brother Li, we are cultivating together in the outer sect, and from the time you entered the sect to the present, we have known each other for three years. ”

"Senior brother, it's been more than three years."

"yes, it's been more than three years. To be honest, watching you grow from a white body to a fifth-level Qi cultivation along the way shows that you have excellent talent. However, this time the inner door is not trivial, and the order given by the ancestor himself, we must not be left behind. ”

Li Sui'an asked, "What is the senior brother's opinion?" ”

"Senior brother, if you still want to go further in Dabiqian, you might as well come to my cave mansion in the evening, and we will talk in detail."

As he spoke, he patted Li Sui'an on the shoulder affectionately, gave him a look that you know, and Shi Shiran left.

Li Sui'an only felt a little nervous, this guy, shouldn't he be disgusting me on purpose.

I didn't hear he had such a hobby.

He turned to look at Huang Tie.
