The next morning, the flowers were fragrant, and many unknown birds frolicked and chirped in the trees. The Xuanhuo Hall shone with golden light against the rising sun.

Outside the hall gate, a little boy was walking through the square and towards the main hall, who was it not Zhou Chenhai?

Zhou Chenhai walked to the door and was about to knock. At the moment when his hand was about to knock on the door, a gentle voice came from in the hall.

"No need to be polite, come in. ”

Zhou Chenhai pushed the door and entered, and saw the chief of the hall, Yankong sitting and drinking tea.

He walked up to Yankong, clasped his hands into fists, leaned over to Yankong, and said, "Apprentice to see Master." ”

Yankong asked, "Chenhai, can you read?"

"I went to a private school for a few years. ”

"Have you ever learned the Tao before you went up the mountain?"

"Never. ”

Suddenly, Yankong slowly took a sip of tea, stood up, and walked towards the back of the hall. "You come with me. ”

Zhou Chenhai didn't know Yankong's intentions, so he had to follow silently. The two walked out of the back of the hall.

It turns out that there is a courtyard behind the Xuanhuo Palace, and in the middle of the courtyard with round wood and red tiles is an open space, and an old banyan tree in the center of the open space is vigorous and upright. Under the banyan tree, there is a round stone table, a few stone benches.

Zhou Chenhai followed Yankong to the stone table and sat down.

Yankong said: "Reach over." ”

Zhou Chenhai stretched out his right hand in front of Yankong. Yankong put two fingers on his veins.

After a long time, Yan Kong withdrew his hand and said in his heart: "It is indeed as the senior brother said." ”

"Chenhai, this is the residence of the teacher, and no one dares to disturb it without my permission. If you have any questions in the future, you can come here and ask me, and you should practice diligently. Also, if your brothers and sisters ask, don't tell them what kind of Tao you are practicing. ”

Zhou Chenhai said: "For beginner disciples, they are all taught by the senior brother, and only after the cultivation is deep enough will the master continue to teach. I'm just a beginner disciple, but I can be taught by my master, and I am naturally happy in my heart, but I don't know why I can't talk about it with my senior brothers and sisters?"

"Because, the Tao I want to teach you is unfathomable, and it is not for ordinary disciples to learn. But you're suitable. ”

"There is a special one for me, Master, what kind of Taoism do you want to teach your disciples?"

Yan Kong smiled slightly and said, "Phantom Yin True Scripture!"

Zhou Chenhai was very puzzled: "Phantom Yin True Scripture, what is this?"

"Let's not talk about the Phantom Yin Sutra. Let me ask you first, do you know anything about martial arts?"

"The disciple is stupid, for more than a month, he has not even been able to practice the Qi Gathering Dantian, let alone talk about learning others. ”

"That's fine, I'll teach you from the beginning. ”

Yankong said: "There are clouds in ancient times: heaven and earth are blended, and the universe is divided into yin and yang. Yin goes to yang, and yang goes to yin. Yin and yang push each other and come to life. Therefore, one yin and one yang are the way. This is the Tao hidden in heaven and earth, and pursued by all things in the Three Realms. ”

"Those who have attained the Tao can look up to astronomy and geography, know the reason for the darkness, understand the theory of life and death, know the state of ghosts and gods, and impoverish all things in heaven and earth and can do everything!"

Zhou Chenhai scratched his head and said: "Although the apprentice can't fully understand what the master said, he probably knows that this method comes from the two qi of yin and yang, and the two qi of yin and yang come from heaven and earth.

"That's a good point. Yankong smiled.

"The aura of heaven and earth is chaotic and mixed, and the two qi of yin and yang are hidden in it. The world's original method introduces the aura of heaven and earth into the body, separates yin and yang, and then refines it with various mental methods, which can become its own original true qi. ”

Zhou Chenhai's eyes were shining, and he listened carefully.

"The Yin and Yang Qi that has been refined is the original Origin True Qi, and it is also the purest True Qi. At first, the original true qi was only divided into yin and yang, and after the creation and evolution of the masters of the past dynasties, it was divided into eight kinds of true qi, which the world called the eight realms. ”

Zhou Chenhai became more and more curious: "Eight Dao?

Yankong replied, "These eight realms are, water, fire, wind, thunder, heaven, earth, man, and illusion. ”

"Each True Qi has its own unique properties, just like the Way of Water, which is the method used to control the power of water, and the Way of Fire that controls the flames. Our Xuanhuo Peak is specialized in the Fire Dao, and we use the Origin True Qi as the Fire Dao True Qi!"

"It's not difficult to control one of these eight true qis. But it's extremely difficult to master both. A person who is gifted and intelligent should be able to control two kinds, and a person who can control three kinds has never been seen in a thousand years, if he forcibly cultivates a variety of true qi, he will definitely go mad and explode and die. ”

Zhou Chenhai was surprised, "There is such a thing." The situation of this Origin True Qi can be regarded as an understanding in vain. ”

Yankong continued: "Then I will tell you about the realm of the Dao Fa. Listen up!"

"There are five realms of mortal martial arts: essence, qi, god, void, and Tao, that is, the so-called refining and refining qi, refining qi and transforming gods, refining gods and returning to the void, breaking the void and merging the Tao, and returning the Tao to the Yuan. However, the Dao Law has nine realms: in addition to the five realms just mentioned, there are also refining the essence and condensing the yuan, refining the qi and fixing the mountain, refining the gods and melting the sea, and breaking the void and opening the sky. ”

"In order to make it easier for people to remember, cultivators named these nine realms: Refining Essence Realm, Refining Qi Realm, Refining God Realm, Breaking Void Realm, Merging Dao Realm, Condensing Yuan Realm, Dingshan Realm, Melting Sea Realm, and Opening Heaven Realm. And among these nine realms, from the moment he stepped into the realm of merger, he was a peerless master in this heaven and earth. After that, even if it is a fraction of a centimeter, its cultivation is also thousands of miles apart. This is not a realm that you can explore, so you don't need to understand it yet. ”

"The more Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi is refined, the more the Origin True Qi is condensed, and the stronger the cultivation will be. If the cultivation is strong to a certain extent, you will encounter the Dao Heart dilemma. If you break through the predicament, there will be a qualitative change in the true qi in your body. This is the ascension of the realm. As for how to break through the predicament and improve the realm, and how the original true qi changes after the breakthrough, I won't say much about it as a teacher, and leave it for you to experience in the future. ”

Zhou Chenhai heard a lot, and only felt that the path of cultivation was fantastical, and his future life would definitely be wonderful. While rejoicing, my mood has also broadened a lot.

Yan Kong paused and said, "Now, I'll talk about this Phantom Yin Sutra. ”

"Ordinary people cultivate the Tao, and as their cultivation grows, their realm will continue to improve. But this Illusory Yin True Sutra is different, when cultivated, Yin Qi will continue to accumulate, but without refining, it cannot become the Origin True Qi, and most of it will not be able to operate, and in a short period of time, the realm of the Dao Law will not be improved. ”

"But as long as you continue to practice, after a few years, the yin qi will accumulate to a certain level, and then refine the yin qi according to the scriptures, and the cultivation will be able to break through to an extremely high realm in one fell swoop. It's just that in the past few years, we have to practice diligently. Chen Hai, whether you have the perseverance or not is up to you. ”

"You must do your best!" replied Zhou Chenhai firmly.

"Then the teacher now wants to see how you can attract the aura of heaven and earth into your body. If there are no mistakes, you will be able to cultivate on your own in the future of the Illusory Yin Sutra. ”

Now, sit cross-legged with your chest and eyes closed, and hold your hands in the dantian. Relax your whole body and be natural. ”

Zhou Chenhai meditated on the ground according to what Yankong said.

"You use this basic method to introduce the aura of heaven and earth into your body from the Parkway acupoint. ”

Suddenly, Yankong asked, "How?"

"It's stupid, it's not successful. ”

Yankong put his hand on the top of Zhou Chenhai's head and gently pushed a small stream of true qi over.

"And now?"

"It's done!"

"Go on, concentrate!"

Half-ringing, Yankong retracted his hand. Zhou Chenhai still sat still, concentrating.

"What's going on? Why did the Heaven and Earth Aura that was introduced dissipate in his body in a matter of moments? Could it be that this kid was really born with a cold body? No, the cold body is already like a dead person when he lives to this age. The kid is still alive and kicking............ Is it possible?!"

Yankong pondered, but didn't know what to do.

At this time, Zhou Chenhai was immersed in the pleasure of aura entering his body, and he didn't notice that Yankong had stopped. He didn't even realize that the hidden ghost seal in his body was slowly exuding yin energy, canceling out the aura he had introduced.

After a pillar of incense, Zhou Chenhai woke up from his meditation.

Yan Kong took out an old book from his sleeve and handed it to him, saying, "This secret book is the Phantom Yin True Scripture! ”

Zhou Chenhai took the cheats and flipped through them casually. I found that in addition to cultivating the mental method, there were also some small characters on the side notes in this secret book, which were obviously annotations left by Yankong who often read and studied.

"Huh?"

Zhou Chenhai flipped through to the end and found that the cheats were incomplete, and there seemed to be a lot of content behind it, but it was torn off.

He was puzzled and asked, "Master, why is there a part of this secret book missing?"

Yankong paused, and said slowly: "I tore it off, and only the first half was given to you." The second half is the method of refining and operating yin qi, the content is obscure, and if it is not cultivated properly, it is very easy to go mad. Because the teacher was afraid that you would forcibly cultivate, he tore it off. After you have cultivated the first half, I will give you the second half. ”

"Also, there's one more important thing. When this Phantom Yin True Sutra is cultivated, it will suppress one's own yang energy to a certain extent, and every once in a while, he will feel unwell. When you feel unwell, come to me, and the teacher will use your true qi to help you protect your body. Do you understand?"

Zhou Chenhai thought to himself: "I can't imagine that this Phantom Yin True Sutra is difficult to cultivate, and there will be no pie in the sky, if you want to have great skills, you have to work hard." ”

Thinking of this, he replied, "I understand. ”

"Then that's the end of today, you will definitely have to practice more when you go back. ”

Soon, Zhou Chenhai had already left, and Yankong was still sitting at the stone table and did not get up.

He looked at the direction of Zhou Chenhai's departure and said to himself: "God really helped me, I never expected that I would meet this son." Whether or not my cultivation can break through depends on this kid!"
