Chapter Twenty-Eight: Cultivating Secret Techniques
When He Lingfeng thanked Tianyi Zhenren and wanted to go back to cultivation immediately, Tianyi Zhenren kept him and said the following words without hesitation.
"I will keep the fragment of the "Five Elements Sutra" for you for the time being, and you can come tomorrow to memorize it. With your intelligence, you can remember it all in three days.
In this way, in terms of exercises, you already have the method of dividing and re-integrating the five elements, and you have a fragment of the "Five Elements True Sutra", but only in the late Yuan Infant period, it depends on your own choice which way to cultivate.
However, I suggest that you can comprehend both, but first use the method of fusion of the five elements. While comprehending the five Five Elements Single Attribute Exercises, if you still have the strength to spare, you can also refer to the fragment of the Five Elements Sutra to wait for the opportunity, and it will also be of some help to you to comprehend the Five Elements Path.
If you cultivate to the late Yuan Infant stage in the first way, but you still haven't found that part of the exercises in the subsequent realm of the Five Elements True Sutra, it may mean that you have no relationship with this exercise. And then, you just need to continue to cultivate according to the method of the Five Elements Separation and Fusion.
But if you have this opportunity, you will be lucky enough to find all the exercises before the late Yuan Infant period, and at that time, because you are based on the method of the five elements of separation and integration, it is much easier to revise the "Five Elements Sutra", which can be said to be a matter of course. Otherwise, if you start cultivating directly based on the Five Elements True Sutra now, and you don't have the rest of the exercises in the future, and you don't know how to proceed with your subsequent cultivation, then your path will come to an end in the late Yuan Infant period. If you choose the "Five Elements Sutra", you will have no room to turn around.
However, the choice is your own business, and I will not control you. So far as I have said, you must do what you want. ”
After listening to it humbly, He Lingfeng felt that what Tianyi Zhenren said was extremely reasonable, so he immediately accepted Tianyi Zhenren's suggestion and decided to cultivate first with the first method.
"Ling Feng, I originally wanted to find five Five Elements Single-Attribute Exercises for you that are at least above the ground level, and make a set for your Five Elements Spiritual Root, so as to meet your cultivation needs, but my strength alone is limited after all, even if I gather the power of the entire Tianyi Sect, I can only find these exercises.
However, although you can only cultivate with these Xuan-level exercises now, it is quite a starting point compared to ordinary cultivators.
In the cultivation realm, only a small number of high-level exercises will be circulated and traded in the Loose Cultivation and Cultivation Chamber of Commerce, and most of them are bartered, so it is very difficult to find. There are a small number of poor casual cultivators, and they can even only practice with exercises that do not enter the stream, and ordinary people can be considered blessed if they can enter the grade, even if it is only the Yellow Rank Nine Rank Exercises.
And most of the powerful high-level exercises are basically the Zhen sect exercises of various sects, which are the foundation of their schools, cherish the abnormal, and it is almost impossible to pass them on, and these exercises have always only been passed on to the core disciples with higher talents.
Moreover, a sect often focuses on one or two specialized attributes or types of exercises. Those who have been immersed in this kind of exercise for many years, have some unique opinions, and occupy some advantages, this kind of exercise can be called the Tao method, and its inheritance is called the Tao system.
Tianyi Sect, because I have practiced most of my life on the metal exercises, so after I created the school, it is known for the golden way.
Your sect, that is, the Wanhua Immortal Sect, for some reason, absorbs hundreds of schools, and the exercises are complicated, but it is not outstanding in a certain type of exercises, and the methods practiced by the disciples in the sect are therefore more complicated. However, it has made some achievements in the wood attribute exercises, as well as the way of sword cultivation and flying swords, and if you are interested, you can pay more attention and practice in these aspects after you return to the future.
In addition, our Xuanhe Continent's Bishui Sect is also unique in terms of the Dao of Water, and it is on an equal footing with my Tianyi Sect in terms of Dao system.
There was a poem:
Yutai Mountain is beautiful and blue lake, and when you meet a crane, you are like seeing a fairy.
Tianyi Golden Law Blue Waterway, inheritance of thousands of years of true chapters. ”
Tianyi Zhenren said this, for some reason, there was a little strange color on his face, and He Lingfeng didn't notice it at all because he listened attentively.
I saw that the former paused slightly, lowered his head and took a sip of Yunshan Mist Spirit Tea, and then continued:
"This poem, the first two sentences have been ancient, it is about the prosperity of the scenery of the Yutai Mountains and Bibo Lake, once you arrive at Xuanhe Island, the beauty of these two places is like seeing a fairyland.
The last two sentences of this poem were added by later generations, that is, the Tianyi Sect and the Bishui Sect, which established their respective sects in these two places, have been inherited in the Golden Dao Method and the Water Dao Law for nearly a thousand years, respectively, and they have some real skills. ”
At this time, Tianyi Zhenren was a rare smile, not as detached and gentle as usual, and seemed to be quite complacent, which made He Lingfeng feel a little unaccustomed.
At this time, it was getting late, and it was time for dinner, so Tianyi Zhenren asked He Lingfeng to go back, and come back tomorrow morning to memorize the fragments of the "Five Elements True Scripture" and learn the relevant theories of meridian acupoints, and then give him the secret technique of dantian differentiation and fusion of the five qi after passing the test.
After He Lingfeng returned, he didn't go to eat dinner, so he couldn't wait to check out the selected exercises. However, because he had not yet learned the knowledge of the meridians and obtained the secret arts, he could not start cultivating, so he had to spend the night eagerly and helplessly.
Since the second day, He Lingfeng has gone to Tianyi Zhenren every day, looking at the fragmentary stone tablets of the "Five Elements True Sutra" before lunch and memorizing its contents, and after lunch, he will follow Tianyi Zhenren to learn the meridian acupoints that must be understood before cultivating.
In this way, after three days, the fragment of the "Five Elements True Scripture" has been memorized by him, and he can recite it backwards.
Therefore, in the remaining days, He Lingfeng spent all his time learning about the meridians and organs of the human body. During this period, Tianyi Zhenren will also temporarily intersperse some interesting anecdotes related to the cultivation realm and some necessary common sense. He Lingfeng was already in a hurry to cultivate, so he studied very seriously, and his efficiency was extremely high, coupled with the content interspersed by Tianyi real people, he didn't feel boring at all.
After a total of twelve days, He Lingfeng finally finished learning the content he should learn, and after passing the test of Tianyi Zhenren, he successfully obtained the secret technique of differentiating the dantian and fusing the five qi, and he finally started his first cultivation.
Because the courtyard where He Lingfeng originally lived did not have a secret room, and he was an extremely special Five Elements Spirit Root, it would be a big trouble if it was discovered that he was actually a fellow practitioner of the Five Attributes. Therefore, after a little consideration, Tianyi Zhenren asked He Lingfeng to cultivate in the small world that the former used for his own retreat.
At this moment, in front of the waterfall and deep pool of that space, on a flat boulder five zhang square, He Lingfeng was sitting cross-legged, with his heart facing the sky, recalling the content of the secret technique in his mind, guiding the innate qi in his body to flow from the meridians to the dantian, and then controlling the consciousness to compress and condense these innate qi.
This process is quite consuming of innate qi, but fortunately, he is a fairy spirit jade body, and the innate qi in his body has already awakened and operated on its own for more than ten years, so there is no need to worry about this point.
At the beginning of the compression and condensation of this secret technique, he failed many times, and his forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat, but he was not discouraged at all, and kept trying, and finally completed the first condensation, forming a drop of syrup-like viscous substance, and this drop consumed half of the innate qi gathered in the dantian.
Only then did he withdraw from his cultivation state, gasping for breath and wiping his sweat. After resting long enough, continue with the second condensation. With the successful experience of the first time, although there were many failures, it only took two-thirds of the previous time to complete the second condensation.
In this way, He Lingfeng repeated the process of condensing, resting, and condensing again in this small world, and it took him a whole day to finally become familiar with the condensation and compression of innate qi, which could guarantee success at one time.
But this is not enough, according to the bamboo slip that records the secret art, this first step can only be regarded as the easiest step of the secret art, and there are more difficult steps and the most difficult final step.
