Chapter 1 There is no hope for the knot
In the middle of the night, the stars are sinking, the bright moon in Lin'an City is clear, sprinkling a wisp of clear light, on the street of the feldspar whiteboard, there are no pedestrians coming and going, and every household has closed the doors and windows.
On the city wall, a young man in a brocade suit held a gourd, tasted wine, leaned on the wall, his eyes were clear, and he muttered in his mouth.
"If you can pick the barrier-breaking grass again, you should be able to break through, the six yang flowers and dragon fruit have all been obtained, and you can barely refine a furnace of barrier-breaking pills, and this time you will definitely succeed in breaking the barriers." Ling Li pondered.
When Ling Li was six years old, he was still a beggar in Lin'an City, begging everywhere to make a living, eating and sleeping in the open. Fortunately, at that time, one of the five gates of the Luoyun Sect, the elder Wuweizi took pity on his loneliness, accepted him as a regular servant Taoist, and brought him into the avenue of cultivation.
Now that he has been cultivating for nine years, he has changed from a broken boy who doesn't know food and clothing to become an immortal master who is high in the eyes of mortals, and a cultivator who builds the pinnacle of foundation. However, no matter what method is used, he can't break through the pinnacle of foundation building, which makes Ling Li depressed.
Haoyue was in the sky, sitting on the city wall, Ling Li looked at the starry sky, stretched out his white palm to the night sky, and shook it fiercely at the bright moon above the nine heavens, as if he had put the bright moon in his hand, his eyes were full of uninhibited and unwilling, and he sighed, "It's hard to ask! It's difficult!
"Hah!" came an untimely sneer.
"Little monk, the pinnacle of the foundation, so high and far-reaching, even delusional to step on the crown of the stars and the bright moon? Now they are all such empty talkers? And rely on the obstacle breaking pill, where did the wild cultivator boy come from, with this qualification, still want to enter the avenue of cultivation? Still think about heaven and earth? I really don't know what to say. A lewd old man sat beside Ling Li at some point, ragged, hugged a chicken leg, gnawed on the oil, and a few words drenched the fierce and mocking dog's head.
Ling Li stood up abruptly, looking nervous.
He frowned and looked at the elusive old man in front of him, this person came to his side unconsciously, he didn't even notice it at all, and the spiritual sense of the foundation was penetrated, but the result was shocked, and the spiritual sense looked at it, and there was nothing! You must know that the spiritual sense probes, if it is a mortal, everything in the body is clearly visible, even if you meet someone whose cultivation is much higher than yourself, it is at most a fog, and the old man in front of him can't see anything, and the cultivation has never encountered such a strange thing, is it a ghost? Or is it?
Ling Li can't tolerate the slightest insult from others, he is firm-hearted, no matter who is in front of him, how can he taunt and trample on it lightly and casually.
The roots of Ling Li's ears were slightly red, but his tone was very high.
If we don't have the heart to seek the Tao and work hard, what kind of Tao can we talk about? What is true to cultivate? What is the opposite of the sky! Although the younger generation speaks wildly, it does not mean that I will not be able to do it in the future, and if I can't do it in a hundred years, I will have a thousand years, ten thousand years, and one hundred thousand years. Ling Li's heart was on fire, and the momentum was compelling for a while.
"Oh, that's the old man underestimating you, it's interesting, but well. The mysterious old man wanted to speak and stopped.
"But what?"
"You know your own qualifications best, and you must be very helpless about your roots. ”
Ling Li was silent for a long time and said, "What do you mean?"
"If you don't have a strange fate against the sky, you will not want to come out, at most you will stop at the infant period in your lifetime, the old man is a god, the sky is counted, the earth is counted, people are counted ghosts, fortune is calculated, feng shui, how about it, you invite the old man to drink, the old man will give you a hexagram, how about ensuring that your road can be expected?" After speaking, the obscene old man, oh no, the god operator swallowed his saliva vigorously.
Ling Li's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he knew his own family affairs, and said secretly, "How did this old man know that my bones are extremely bad?
Ling Li's eyes were blazing, and after thinking for a while, he immediately said, "Please also ask the seniors for guidance." ”
Shen Operator squinted his eyes, and pinched his fingers with his right hand to calculate, "You were born in Da'an for three years, Chen Shi was born, and you have been begging for a living in the corner of Lin'an City since you were a child, and then you were fortunate to meet Luoyun Sect Wuweizi, and brought you into the path of cultivation, and the path of cultivation has been nine years and March 21, two years ago to build the peak of the foundation. You are full of mixed qi, your qi and blood are congested, you are always sullen and short of breath when you meditate, the heaven and earth vitality is very poor, and the cultivation is difficult, and you finally cultivate to the peak of foundation building but you have never been able to gather qi and condense the pill, and further become a small divine power monk of that knot pill, a few days ago I found the six yang flowers in Mangyuan, and three months ago I found a hundred years of dragon fruit in the periphery of the endless mountain range, ready to refine the barrier-breaking pill, and break the bottleneck with the help of the barrier-breaking medicine. ”
Ling Li was startled, and his face showed surprise, what kind of magical power is this, it is simply unheard of. Count the past, look at the dust, it's terrible! Sharp contact, the supernatural powers I heard are generally the Five Elements Technique, I have never heard of such an ethereal way of arithmetic, and I feel shocked.
"The seniors are unpredictable, the juniors admire, how about we find a pure place to talk in detail?" Ling Li said respectfully.
"No, no, where do you need such trouble! I want the wine in your hand!" The god operator glanced at the gourd in Ling Li's hand awkwardly, and said again, "The old man is in a good mood today, and when he saw that your kid was a little interesting, he came to rub the wine and have a good time, and by the way, I will guide you." ”
Hearing this, Ling Li hurriedly handed over the gourd.
"Goodong, good wine, the monkey wine in the green bamboo forest has a unique flavor, haha!" The god operator drank half of the gourd wine in a few gulps.
This green bamboo forest in the back mountain of the sect, is the place where they meditate and practice in the morning on weekdays, there are many spirit monkeys, long-term exchanges, I have a very good time with the monkeys here, before the monkeys sent themselves a gourd, inside is the green bamboo forest monkey wine, after drinking it, the blood and qi are gradually smooth, comparable to the elixir. The entire sect of this wine is its own exclusive property, and this god operator even calculates this.
Ling Li's eyes revealed infinite desire, cultivation, everything must be cultivated, only when you cultivate high, can you come into contact with these mysterious and magical powers.
"The old man is known as a god operator, how can he fool you little doll. The god operator took a deep look at Ling Li and said with a smile.
"Seniors, the younger generations have been cultivating for nine years, their qualifications are inferior, and they finally reached the peak of foundation building, and they want to condense the true qi into a pill, but I can't condense it, the younger generation knows that breaking through the bottleneck with the pill is not conducive to cultivating the truth in the future, and it is really a last resort. Looking at the seniors, the poor boy asked the heart of the question, pointing a clear way. Ling Li said respectfully.
"Boy, do you know why you can't condense Dan?"
"The juniors don't know, please ask the seniors to give me" Ling Li said innocently, if I know, do I need to ask you.
"There is one thing that you are self-aware, your qualifications are indeed extremely poor, compared to the mortals who have no hope of ascending to the immortal and have no way to cultivate. Even if you take the Barrier Breaking Pill, you will definitely not be able to get the Barrier Pill. Ling Li smiled bitterly.
"But you don't have to be a qi barrier, the cultivation is against the sky, the qi and blood are blocked, the meridians are blocked, these can be improved with the elixir and the spirit grass, as for your bone, it will be difficult to do, the congenital root bone and the five elements are messy, you say that you can't condense the Dan, in fact, the root bone is too poor, with your realm perception of the peak of the foundation is not enough to control the direction of the true qi, can not condense, can only instinctively run Zhou Tian, and the natural Dan is hopeless. The god operator stroked his beard and said slowly.
When I heard it, there was a doorway!"Can that senior... ”
"No, you can't. The god operator glanced at Ling Li and said with a smile.
"The innate root bones, the old man can't do anything, unless you can find Penglai Immortal Lotus, Xichi Yunguo, Nine Leaf Golden Lotus and other innate holy relics, you can borrow to return to the innate and reshape the true body. However, these holy relics seem to have disappeared in the current cultivation world. Ling Li rolled his eyes, not that he didn't say anything.
"The old man doesn't have the innate holy relics, and he doesn't have the kind of magical power that can help you change your muscles and bones, but the old man can show you the way. ”
"Seniors, please say, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, the younger generations must also win it. Ling Li stood up and said excitedly.
"Don't worry, don't worry. Ancient monks, three thousand gates, all of them can lead to avenues, no matter how bad the qualifications are, they can become immortals, that is the time for the cultivation world to shine. Nowadays, most of the cultivators in the cultivation realm are cultivating the Fa, that is, supernatural powers, mana, and it will definitely not work for you to take this path in this situation. ”
"Seniors... Ling Li was about to cry, and after going around and talking, don't hang my appetite.
"Haha, this can't hold your breath? Don't worry, wait for me to tell you slowly. In ancient times, there was a method called the way of heart refining, which talked about not emphasizing the law and not understanding the gods, but only referring to the original heart, in short, it is the cultivation realm. ”
"Cultivation realm?" Ling Li said confusedly.
"Yes, let me ask you, you are now at the peak of foundation building, I asked you to condense the true qi equivalent to the qi induction period, can you do it?" the god operator muttered.
"This can definitely be done, the true qi during the induction period is weak, small, and easy to condense. Speaking of this, Ling Li suddenly realized.
"I understand, this ancient way of refining the mind is also the same truth, only cultivating the realm, not caring about the Fa, God, the realm has arrived, and it is not easy to cultivate the Fa. If I can't break through the foundation building period, then I will use the realm of the Yuan Infant Stage to condense the Dan. However, if you think about it carefully, this seems to be a shortcut, you don't have to spend a lot of time cultivating supernatural powers and accumulating mana, just wait for the realm to reach and the mana to follow, and it will be easy to get through the bottleneck. A lot of time to comprehend the Great Dao, this realm will naturally improve quickly. ”
"Yes, yes, it seems that you have very poor bones, but your understanding is good. "It's not bad, the sharp bones are not good, but the comprehension is extremely high, I have read a lot of sect classics, and I can understand it almost once, and I can basically understand it after reading the spell or something.
"The younger generation has a question, if this way of heart cultivation is only to cultivate the realm, the cultivation realm is vast and boundless, and there are countless strange people, there must be people whose realm is much higher than cultivation. So how is this different from the way of heart refining? Ling Li asked.
The Divine Operator shook his head and said, "You remember, although this path of mental cultivation is the Tao, it is not the Tao, it is not the cultivation method, and you have also noticed that this is just a shortcut, just a shortcut borrowed by monks when they can't get through the bottleneck, or when people like you are confused about the path. However, there were countless people in the ancient cultivation realm, and this way of heart refining was actually evolved into a kind of exercise by Tianjiao, and it actually developed into a giant sect, which was a school of its own. Saying this, the divine operator's eyes were complicated, and his expression was slightly lowered.
Tianjiao... Ling Li was silent, and then asked, "Dare to ask the name of that sect." ”
The god operator glanced at Ling Li deeply, and said slowly, "Heavenly Dao Sect." ”
Heavenly Dao Sect! What a compelling name, Ling Li silently recited in his heart, searching his memory, he had never heard of this sect, thinking of the boundless cultivation realm, and the number of sects was like a cow's hair, and he didn't think much about it, but he kept this sect in his heart.
"The way of heart refining. Heavenly Dao Sect. Ling Li muttered.
"Heart refining refers directly to the heart, the way of heaven is profound and obscure, everything is to see their own way, everyone's heart refining path is different, the current monks emphasize the law and the gods, this heart refining path is too difficult, so it is almost forgotten by this cultivation world, it has become history, it's a pity, it's a pity. The god operator sighed.
"Why?"
"The way of heart refining, do not cultivate God, do not cultivate the Fa, only cultivate the realm, cultivate the original heart. The ancient monks practiced their hearts, stepped on thousands of mountains, traveled thousands of miles, and experienced the red dust of the world, during which they were only for mortals, forgetting their mana, forgetting their cultivation, until they were successful, so that the effect of heart refining was the best, but would ordinary monks give up their profound mana? No. Mana has been deeply rooted in the bone marrow and has become an indispensable part of the monk. Moreover, on the road of heart refining, there are demons all the time, and the realm is improved, but the demons enter the body, and the previous efforts are abandoned, and only great perseverance and perseverance can succeed. The smile of the god operator was put away.
"It can be said that the path of heart refining is much more dangerous than the normal path of cultivation, you dare to take it. The god operator suddenly became serious.
Ling Li frowned, this way of heart refining is so dangerous, the heart demon, that is the monk to survive the tribulation, and this way of heart refining, at every turn, the heart demon is lightly disturbed, if you are not careful, it will definitely be a catastrophe. However, if a monk is afraid of the heavens, how can he go against the grain? Since he is not willing to accept the status quo, then he will break through and live this life in vain.
Thinking of this, Ling laughed violently and said, "Why don't you dare, my generation of monks, not afraid of the sky, not afraid of the earth, if you don't even dare to give it a try, you still talk about what kind of Tao to cultivate!"
"Then go down, and I'll see how far you can go. After the wine is drunk, I have said everything that should be said, so I can do it myself. The voice of the divine operator faded away and drifted away. At this time, Ling Li had already fallen into contemplation, and he had never noticed the departure of the divine operator, and was thinking about the so-called way of heart refining.
"Heart refining, refining the heart, pointing directly to the original heart, only my heart is clear, and the cultivation realm does not practice the law" One night dawned, Ling Li smiled bitterly, it seems that he has passed the night unconsciously.
"That's it, go back to the sect first and rush through it again, try to see if you can break through the bottleneck, the path of the pill is still not necessary, you really can't break through, and then try the heart refining method of this god operator." I have no treasure to be coveted, and he should not harm me. "Ling Li is not as ignorant and impulsive as a three-year-old child, on the contrary, with his qualifications, to be able to reach the peak of foundation building now, it is more prudent, and the heart of guarding against people is indispensable, this god operator said that the heart refining is not really true, but it is not feasible, how can he just recklessly give up the sect's mental method to cultivate this ancient way of mental refining, or rush back to the sect first.
