Chapter 17 Three Layers of Qi Refining
Qiao Yuan silently returned to the center of the altar, sat down cross-legged, no longer thinking about the altar in his heart, his eyes were on the book in his hand, and he looked at the three words "Lingfeng Jue" written on the blue book cover.
He gently turned the first page, only to see that the book said, "If you want to cultivate the spiritual wind technique, you must have the wind spirit root", and Qiao Yuan had a strong interest in this spiritual wind recipe in his heart.
"Close your eyes and concentrate your mind, extend your ears and meditate, the spirit of all things in heaven and earth, and break the natural road in an orderly manner. There is a way to breathe, and the skin can be conceived by the spirit, which leads the qi of all things to immerse the body, and guides the yuan of heaven and earth to the field, which is called the qi refining method. ”
Qiao Yuan slowly opened the back pages, looked at the awkward words on the page, and carefully pondered the general idea in his mind.
He was not in a hurry to cultivate, if he didn't study this spiritual style recipe thoroughly, even if he cultivated, it would just be a waste of time.
"The wind begins with clouds, the clouds begin with steam, the steam begins with water, the water begins with the earth, the earth begins with the sky, the heavens begin with the Tao, and the Tao is natural. The way of the spiritual wind is born in the spirit, received by the wind, if the wind walks, the spirit is powerful, and the wind is beneficial to the location and does not know the spiritual change, and it is not possible. ”
Qiao Yuan read out the key to the exercises on the page of the book softly, although this key was relatively obscure, he still did not show the slightest anxiety.
He read word by word, not letting his mind feel a little vague and unclear, until he completely understood the meaning of a sentence before continuing to read the following mantra.
The book was not thick, but it was only five pages, but it took Joe five days to fully understand the meaning of all the words on the book.
Qiao Yuan sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, adjusted his mind to the most peaceful state, and had a gentle rhythm in every breath, completely relaxing his whole body, and feeling the aura between heaven and earth from head to toe.
At first, he couldn't feel the slightest bit at all, but he felt the rhythmic rise and fall of his chest and the rhythm of his breathing.
Qiao Yuan had read in the book before that if a mortal wanted to feel the aura in heaven and earth to refine qi, it would take at least five or six days for a person with average talent.
And his talent is poor, it should take ten days and half a month to feel it, so Qiao Yuan didn't have the slightest urgency, he sat cross-legged in place motionless, relaxing and trying his best to feel the aura around him.
"There is a way to breathe, but the change of Zhou Tian should be empty, the joy of thinking about the heart is obtained, where the body feels the spirit is natural, and refining the qi is also talented. ”
"Close your eyes and concentrate your mind, extend your ears and meditate, the spirit of all things in heaven and earth, and break the natural road in an orderly manner. There is a way to breathe, and the skin can be conceived by the spirit, which leads the qi of all things to immerse the body, and guides the yuan of heaven and earth to the field, which is called the qi refining method. ”
Qiao Yuan silently recited these mantras in his heart, and maintained a natural law with every breath and breath.
In addition to the necessary time to eat and sleep every day, Qiao Yuan spent eight hours meditating cross-legged, and this state lasted for seven days, before he finally felt that with every breath he breathed, some extremely imperceptible warm gas would enter his body and circulate throughout his body.
Because of reading the introduction in the book, Qiao Yuan knew that this was aura, but he was not too excited, after all, this trace of aura entered his body with his inhalation, and when he exhaled, this trace of aura would overflow out of his body.
Qiao Yuan could only slightly feel the existence of the aura for the time being, but he still couldn't keep the aura in his body for his own use.
"There is a way to breathe, but the body of the spirit is not the same, and the immersion of the qi is not the force. Heaven and earth are constant, all things have spirits, nature Zhou Tian exists in his own body, there is a cycle of degrees, and it is condensed in Danhai, which is called the method of refining qi. Although Qiao Yuan couldn't retain the aura in his body, as time passed, he could feel more and more aura flowing in his body.
And the feeling is getting clearer and clearer, like an ant crawling inside itself, but there is no trace of discomfort, only the feeling of warmth and comfort in the place where the spiritual air flows through.
Qiao Yuan silently recited the mantra of the Zhou Tian cycle of spiritual energy in his heart, trying his best to guide and control the flow of these spiritual qi.
In this way, another seven days passed, and he finally guided a trace of spiritual energy to flow along his head to the various meridian acupuncture points in the limbs of his body, and then converged in the dantian, condensed there, because there was too little spiritual energy, it was simply an invisible gas state.
Because he was limited to the spiritual roots, Qiao Yuan's speed of absorbing spiritual energy and the speed of running Xiao Zhou Tian were quite slow, but fortunately, the wind attribute spiritual energy around this altar was quite strong, and it was also very suitable for Qiao Yuan, who was mainly based on wind spiritual roots, so his cultivation speed here was also acceptable.
If he went to the outside world, it would take at least half a month for Qiao Yuan to feel the aura, and it would definitely take longer to attract the spirit into his body.
Qiao Yuan could only do two small Zhou Tian cycles a day at first, so after a month, his speed gradually increased, and the aura in the dantian was already rich to the point of condensing into liquid.
In this way, he knew that he had successfully entered the first layer of qi refining, which made Qiao Yuan really excited for a while.
There is no alternation of the sun and moon in the dust tree realm, and the passage of time is also unconscious, Qiao Yuan can only roughly estimate the time of a day, and make some marks with some dry food.
Qiao Yuan walked to the edge of a wooden barrel, grabbed out the buds in it, and counted the forty-seven in total.
"Forty-seven days have passed now, seventeen days have been spent feeling the aura, attracting the spirit into the body, and thirty days have been refining the qi layer by layer. ”
He looked at the forty-seven buds in his hand and muttered to himself.
He thought of the record in the book about the introduction of mortal qi refining, people with ordinary qualifications can feel the aura in seven days, attract the spirit into the body, and practice qi in half a month.
Qiao Yuan realized how poor his qualifications were, he had heard Xiao Fengqing say that his cultivation would be much more difficult than others, but now he really realized how big this gap was.
However, a little Si Qiaoyuan smiled, and no longer bothered about the fact that his qualifications were poor, after all, qualifications are not something that he can decide.
After thinking about it, Qiao Yuan returned to his place and meditated cross-legged, and continued to exhale spiritual energy to do a small Zhou Tian cycle.
Since then, Qiao Yuan's sleep of more than three hours a day has also been shortened to two hours, and every time he eats, it seems that someone is robbing him, and he tries not to waste a trace of cultivation time.
Time passed extremely fast during the time of cultivation, and fifty days passed in a blink of an eye.
On this day, Qiao Yuan had just finished running a small Zhou Tian, and the aura of the guide had already condensed from some sparse water droplets into a fist-sized water ball in the dantian.
Qiao Yuan opened his eyes, his face showed joy, he knew that he had entered the second layer of qi refining.
Although the second layer of qi refining only has more spiritual energy in the body, it is still impossible to use the spiritual power in the body, but as long as it reaches the third layer of qi refining, it can simply use some small spells, which makes Qiao Yuan very excited.
"The wind begins with clouds, the clouds begin with steam, the steam begins with water, the water begins with the earth, the earth begins with the sky, the heavens begin with the Tao, and the Tao is natural. The way of the spiritual wind is born in the spirit, received by the wind, if the wind walks, the spirit is powerful, and the wind is beneficial to the location and does not know the spiritual change, and it is not possible. ”
Qiao Yuan gently recited this mantra in his mouth, he had already memorized the Lingfeng recipe backwards, and naturally had some understanding of the spells recorded in it.
This mantra is a small spell that can be cast by the three layers of two qi refining layers.
The first is to add wind spiritual power to your own body to increase your speed, which is quite practical, and the second is to condense spiritual power into a wind blade, which can invisibly hurt people, which is considered an attack method such as a hidden weapon.
After a short time, he closed his eyes again and exhaled it, guiding the aura in his body to circulate for a small week.
Sixty days passed, and the aura in Qiao Yuan's body finally reached the level of the third layer of aura, and then he spent a few more days guiding the aura in his dantian into a circular vortex.
Qiao Yuan stood up from his knees and ran around the altar to feel the changes in his body.
Although the speed was still the same as before, he could feel the position of his dantian, and the aura liquid would replenish the physical strength he consumed every time he cycled, which made Qiao Yuan excited.
The most important thing is that Qiao Yuan can cultivate the two spells recorded in the Lingfeng Technique, although these two spells are not very powerful, but this is the first time Qiao Yuan has come into contact with the spells in the monk, you can imagine how excited he is.
Qiao Yuan's first cultivation was the small spell of "Ruo Feng Xing", which was an auxiliary spell that could make a person's speed explode several times faster for a short time.
He had drunk the Desert Beast Bone Wine and many medicinal soups, and his own speed was very humanly attainable, if he used this "Ruo Fengxing" again, Qiao Yuan believed that his speed would be incredibly fast.
Qiao Yuan said that this spell is actually quite simple, but only the urging of wind spiritual power can bring this spell to the limit.
The key to this technique is to condense the wind spirit power in the body around the body to create a wind cyclone, and use the wind cyclone to propel oneself, so as to achieve an explosion of speed.
It is not difficult for Qiao Yuan to condense the wind cyclone, the difficulty is that he has to dedicate his mind to condense the wind cyclone in the state of running as much as he can, and the more wind cyclones he has, the more spiritual power is consumed, but the faster the speed.
At the beginning of his cultivation, he only condensed the wind cyclone in a static state, and the wind cyclone could only condense six at most, and it would only last for one stick of incense before his spiritual power would be exhausted, and then he would have to meditate to recover his spiritual power before continuing to cultivate.
Qiao Yuan continued to condense the wind cyclone, maintaining the existence of the wind cyclone until the aura was exhausted, and then meditating to recover his spiritual power.
After three days of this, he condensed the wind cyclone as he walked, until he was able to keep the wind cyclone there as he walked.
After another three days like this, Qiao Yuan ran slowly, just running and still a little unable to control the stability of the wind cyclone, from time to time the wind cyclone will dissipate, at most it can only maintain the stability of a wind cyclone.
Qiao Yuan actually wanted to enter the Sinking Heart Realm to practice this technique, but for some reason, he couldn't enter the Sinking Heart Realm, which made him quite distressed.
This technique is not too difficult, and cultivating this spell can be mastered with a lot of practice, and the most important thing is to maintain it with wind spiritual power.
On the tenth day of cultivating this technique, Qiao Yuan could already use this technique proficiently, although he could only condense four stable wind cyclones around his body.
But for his speed increase is very significant, almost dozens of breaths can run from one side of the altar to the other, you must know that this altar can be thousands of feet wide, such a speed is also amazing.
Qiao Yuan looked excited and delighted, and was very amazed at his speed at this time.
He thought in his heart that if he left Qingfeng Village in the future, if he encountered some wild beasts, even if he was defeated and escaped, it would be enough.
Although this technique did not last long, a stick of incense was enough time to shake off the fastest beast.
After Qiao Yuan was excited for a while, he walked to a wooden barrel, poured out the buds in it and counted them carefully, there were a total of one hundred and sixty-eight grains, which made him suddenly feel a little nervous.
"One hundred and sixty-eight days have passed, and there are still twelve days or so to leave here, and I may have to leave Qingfeng Village soon after I get out of here. ”
He looked at the bud rice grains in his hand and muttered to himself, and there was a trace of reluctance in his heart.
When he first came here, because it was too quiet, Qiao Yuan was a little uncomfortable.
In the first month, he even had a feeling of going crazy, but as he felt the aura, he gradually condensed the aura in his body, and this feeling slowly dissipated, and some just wanted to seize the time to make their body more aura.
Now that he was about to leave here, Qiao Yuan thought that his cultivation had only just reached the third layer of Qi refining, and he felt that time had passed so quickly, and he really didn't want to leave this cultivation treasure land.
Qiao Yuan felt a little nostalgic for a while, and then put his mind into the Spiritual Wind Technique, which recorded an attack method that could be learned by the third layer of Qi refining, and this technique was called "Wind Blade".
This technique is not very difficult to learn, just condense the wind attribute spiritual power in the palm of your hand, constantly polish and condense, and finally condense the wind attribute spiritual power into a finger-wide wind blade.
The finer the polishing and condensation of this wind blade, the faster the speed will be, and the stronger the lethality.
However, the disadvantage is that it is quite time-consuming to condense and polish, unless he can master this technique very skillfully, otherwise the enemy will not give him time to condense the wind blade in a critical moment.
Although the shortcomings are obvious, this technique does not consume much spiritual power, as long as it can condense and polish a few wind blades in a short time, it is still quite practical.
