Volume 1 A Spring Dream About Xianju Mountain Chapter 21 The Trick of Cultivation

"How many times?"

"Seventeen times. โ€

"Tired, aren't you?"

"Good. โ€

"What do you think?"

"What happened?"

"Which later?"

"After you became the master of the tower courtyard. โ€

"It's been until now after becoming the master of the courtyard!"

"Huh?"

"Haha, I was already famous all over the world at that time, and people knew about the rest of the story, and someone would tell you about it in the future. โ€

"And now?"

"Now I want to tell you about the practice. โ€

"What is practice?"

"You don't have to memorize every word of what I'm saying, but you have to remember the meaning, understand?"

The child blinked and nodded.

"Living a lifetime is actually practice. โ€

"But everyone is different, so some people can't feel the heavens and the earth, and they rush for decades in their lives, doing nothing. โ€

"This kind of person accounts for the vast majority, just like your parents, your neighbors, and other people in your small fishing village, who are ordinary and live a life. โ€

"There are still a very small number of people who can feel the heavens and the earth, can absorb the vitality, and in the eyes of ordinary people, they are gods and immortals, and these people are cultivators in the true sense. โ€

"But these people are by no means gods and immortals, as for gods and immortals, I think no one should know what they look like except for those seniors who have ascended. โ€

"As for the legendary kingdom of heaven, the realm of gods, and the fairyland, whether there is or not, and where it is, I don't think the world will know. I also wondered where those ascended predecessors had gone, and had they really gone to the legendary kingdom of heaven? Why had no one ever returned?"

"Therefore, the direction and goal that a practitioner regards as a lifelong struggle, such as Ascension, is not very reliable in my opinion. โ€

"However, in the process of cultivation, there are still many obvious benefits, from the control of the vitality of heaven and earth at the beginning of Meng, to the summation of Mahayana after calling for wind and rain to cut the world and destroy the earth as you like, the realm is different, and the ability is also different, but compared to ordinary people, even if it is only the realm of the first Meng, the light longevity can increase by a hundred years. โ€

This is the most obvious benefit of spiritual practice, if you think about it, everyone in the world wants to live a long life, but this is the most basic ability in the eyes of practitioners. โ€

"There are seven levels of cultivation in this continent, the first enlightenment, enlightenment, Jindan, primordial spirit, iQue, unity, and Mahayana. โ€

"Before Mahayana, every time a realm is broken, the longevity increases by one hundred years, and the Mahayana has three hundred years to ascend. Do you see what that means?"

That is to say, if you are just an ordinary person, your lifespan will only be within a hundred years, and many people will not even live half of this number. โ€

"But if you are a beginner cultivator, you can have at least two hundred years of life, of course, you may be killed very early, but if you are safe and sound, you will live to be two hundred years old. โ€

"And so on, until you return to one, to this realm, you can already have seven hundred years of life, but such a person is absolutely one in ten thousand. โ€

"After the unification is the highest state Mahayana, the Mahayana realm increases the life span by 300 years, so people divide this realm into three layers, the Mahayana initial realm, the Mahayana middle realm, the Mahayana consummation, and after the consummation, it is the ascension. โ€

"People often say that the millennium of cultivation refers to the thousand-year longevity obtained by breaking through the realm. โ€

"How? Do you feel like someone designed it? That's what I think, that's what it was designed. โ€

"Of course, this is just my word for it, and no one wants to believe me at all. They all think that cultivation is a blessing from God, and I think that if this thing is really done by God, then that guy from God is just playing a trick. โ€

"Also, you have to remember this, this thousand years of cultivation is only the upper limit of God, okay, I think that this trick is God, and this thousand years is the upper limit given by God, what does it mean?"

"That is to say, God will only play with you for a thousand years at most, and when the time comes, I'm sorry, it's time for you to finish. โ€

"The rest of the realms are the same, for example, if you have cultivated to Jindan, Shouyuan has four hundred years, this is very good, no matter how old you are at the beginning of Mengmeng, at what age you are enlightened, when you reach Jindan, the upper limit of four hundred years is given to you, if you cultivate Jindan at the age of twenty, then there are still three hundred and eighty years to play, and there are still several layers of realm to strive for, if you have played enough time but have not broken through the realm again, then the same, you should be over. โ€

"They all say it's the way of heaven, and I think it's the evidence, is there anything more obvious than that? โ€

This is the basic state of practice. โ€

"As for the sects, exercises, pill formations, etc., in fact, they are all the details of cultivation, and they are all prepared for this basic purpose. โ€

"When you memorize these rules, you can look for loopholes in those rules and take advantage of them, and that's the best practice. You don't have to take this matter so sacred, since you can't be the master, you can't be the one who makes the rules, then use everything you can use, play with him, or find an opportunity to play with him. โ€

"You haven't been to the tower courtyard, and when you go in the future, you will find that there are no gods enshrined in the tower courtyard, this is my attitude, and this is why many of them can't do anything about me but can't get used to it, so I try my best to toss me. โ€

They said that the island city was a place without faith and could not be blessed by God. But it is precisely the island city, but it has the most beautiful mountains in the world, the freshest catch, the most relaxed and happy Li people, and me, the most powerful person in the world. โ€

"This is also evidence, at least it can prove that God this guy, believe him or not, respect him or not, he can't skip the designed rules, he has to do things according to the rules and get into the pot. โ€

"You see, I've told you so much, it's all about freehand things, it's not that I don't want to teach you some practical things, it's because there's not enough time, and because I don't want you to be constrained by these rules and regulations as soon as you enter this door, and then take it for granted that these are all things that should be, I want to keep this blank piece of paper for you to paint, paint the pictures you want to paint, and let you become the most suitable person for yourself. โ€

"Remember, if I can't find the man or god who is playing tricks behind me, you're going to help me keep looking until I find it. โ€

'Hmm', the child was a little confused, but seeing that Li Youzhi talked about it more and more solemnly, it seemed that this was related to a lot of future practice, and the child was still looking forward to the practice, and he was willing to do what Li Youzhi said, so he agreed very simply.

"Let's talk about the island city, the most beautiful city of mountains and seas on the mainland. โ€

"To speak of this city, you must first remember this saying, 'Sit alone in the depths of the pine forest, and watch the sunset return to the boat.'" The waves hit the beachhead, and the drunken smoke and waves were fishing. The pine covers the ancient cave, and the white clouds are secluded in the mountains. With a bamboo in his hand, he described the transformation of the dog. You must remember that this word contains a lot of island cities and Laoshan places, as well as a few trustworthy people, if one day you also get this city like me now, then these places and these people will definitely help you completely control this city. โ€

"There's a big array in this city, but it's closed right now, and only I know about it, and only I can bring it back to life. โ€

"Now someone is trying to open it instead of me, but he won't do it. โ€

"I'll tell you a word, you don't have to understand it now, but when this city needs you to protect it in the future, this matter will be the key to your control of this formation. You remember, the gambling house behind the Liuting can't make authentic sour soup oysters. Just this sentence, remember, don't forget. โ€

"Well, I remember that. But I don't know those words in that paragraph, and I know very few words. โ€

"It doesn't matter, when you read the books, you will understand what each sound of that passage is, now you just need to remember it and be able to pronounce it. โ€

"You're telling me to remember so many words, are you going to send me back, or are you going?"

"Well, maybe I'm going somewhere else. โ€

"Will it be a long time?"

"Well, quite a long time, maybe never coming back. โ€

"What about me? What should I do? Who will send me back?"

"If I do go somewhere else, you'll have to go back by yourself!"

"Okay!"

"Remember what I told you. โ€

"Well, find the guy who plays tricks. โ€

"Yes, that's what I'm doing, but I don't think I'll be able to finish it, but if you can do it, you have to do it. โ€

"Hmm. โ€

"Someone comes, you continue to go to the cliff to read, until your stomach is obedient, and I will teach you to read the next sentence. Do you want me to send you over, very deep, are you afraid?"

"When I recite it for the third time, I won't be afraid, I'll go by myself. โ€

"Good, good. โ€

As soon as the child walked over, someone happened to come to the top of the cliff.

"Master, the monk from the Northern Wei Dynasty set up a cloud platform at the gate of the city lord's mansion and preached a piece of Buddhism, it is said that he talked about the "Diamond Sutra", and he talked about it well, but the third junior brother didn't seem to buy it much, and put Zhang Chang's case outside the mansion gate, and Mr. Fang sat on the threshold crackling and dialed the abacus to calculate the account. โ€

"How's it going?"

"It's okay, it's not worse than the Dharma that the monk said. โ€

"Well, the third child has Mr. Fang's help, and it's not easy for the monk to enter that door, so let's open it!"

"Huh?"

"Well, banned. I have already arranged for the eighth to take his fleet to the East China Sea to intercept the boss, you should know that the boat is full of young disciples from the tower courtyard. โ€

"Well, I know, it's just Master, now the situation seems to be complicated, at this time, the ban is lifted, and the courtyard can't ignore the lives of the people, right?"

"Who's to say it doesn't matter?"

"But if that's the case, what about the island city and the tower courtyard?"

"I'm afraid that the island city and the tower courtyard won't be able to stay this time, you take the fire back to the tower courtyard, light the lamp of the wind thunder tower, and take everyone in the courtyard down the mountain together!"

"Master, if it really comes to that point, even if the disciple dies, he must be a tower keeper. โ€

"No, it's the white-eyed blind man who washes the tower, you can't keep it, even if it's me, I'm afraid I can't keep it. Besides, you should understand that if you lose your tower, you will lose your tower, and if you lose your tower, you will lose your tower!"

"But ยทยทยทยทยทยท"

"It doesn't matter, Senkaku also has a tower, and there will be many more. โ€

"There are twenty-four of your brothers, although there are no amazing and brilliant people, and they all have the ability to take charge of themselves, but you are the only one who can see the overall situation except the boss, and the boss is too straightforward, and there are many times when you see farther than the boss. โ€

"With the help of the two of you, it won't take long for the tower to be built again. Senkaku is a good place, where the spiritual veins and spiritual fluid are inexhaustible, and the children who grow up there will all have a good body. โ€

"Then will he let the disciples in the courtyard leave?"

"Light that lamp, and even if he is blind, he should be able to see what I mean!"
