Chapter 13: The Heart of the Dao (Minor Revision)
The master and apprentice sat down in the bamboo building. The robes of the disciples and a sword box sent by the other disciples were already placed on the table.
The sword box is a small rectangular wooden box that looks no bigger than an ordinary purse, and it hangs just right around the waist. But there are a lot of things that can be held in it. There is an identity jade plate, a green steel sword in the hands of each of the disciples, and the spirit stones, pills, and basic sword skills in the sect in the example.
After Qingyuan Zhenren instructed Shen Ci to confess his master, Shen Ci found that he could freely take the things in the sword box. You can also view your own information in the Master's Jade Plate.
The master came to give personal guidance, so naturally he couldn't deal with it perfunctorily. In Shen Ci's heart, she will give more good to those who are good to herself to repay each other.
Shen Ci used the dew drops on the bamboo leaves in the early morning to brew a pot of "Bimai Ling Tea". Qingyuan Zhenren took a sip and squinted slightly in the smoke rising from the teacup. Fu Yunsheng told Shen Ci all his preferences for drinking Bimai Ling Tea, and also divided half of his own little Bimai Ling Tea with Shen Ci.
After Shen Ci was already familiar with the various things in the sword box, Qingyuan Zhenren said, "Qing Ci, before teaching you the way of cultivation, I asked you a question for the teacher, why do you want to practice?"
Shen Ci was stunned, and the scenes from his previous life reappeared in front of him. The unforgettable hatred, the powerless pain, the terrible man for the knife and the fish for me, and the lost love are all churning in that sea of fire.
"I 。。。。。。 Shen Ci choked his throat for a while, took a long breath, and then said: "I want to give it a try, if I can really do my best, how far can I go! I want to make myself strong, I can protect myself, and I can protect the people I want to protect!"
Emotions are really too fragile sometimes, and the strong appearance that has been strong for many days is fragile and vulnerable when it comes to confiding in your heart at this moment. In the end, he choked up and went out of tune, and tears involuntarily blurred his eyes.
Crying in front of the master, Shen Ci lowered his head a little embarrassed, but the tears seemed to be covered a little, and they dripped more happily. When she calmed down and wanted to raise her head, there was a blue handkerchief in front of her.
Shen Ci's heart warmed, he stretched out his hand to take it, and said in a low voice, "Thank you, Master." ”
"It's good that you can strengthen your Dao heart!" Qingyuan Zhenren praised him, and soon became serious again, and said, "Qing Ci, although you are already practicing the Qi Realm Fourfold now, you have not yet started to cultivate a single exercise. The foundation is especially important for cultivators, even if you are making rapid progress now, you must not be as slack and frolicking as your senior brother! You must know that there are three thousand avenues, the Tao is endless, and the way of the sword is infinitely mysterious, waiting for future generations to study and explore. Cultivation is a journey against the current, and if you slack off, others will go ahead of you! Therefore, after the teacher has given you the practice of cultivation, you should practice seriously and lay a good foundation. The basic sword skills of the sect must also be practiced, and they must not be left behind. ”
"Yes! Shen Ci said solemnly. She knew that the master was afraid that she would lose herself for a while. "In practice, it is most important to maintain a single-minded heart and perseverance. She had heard Ye Lanbi say this sentence before.
And Ye Lanbi's cultivation is like this, he practices diligently every day, and there is no slack in a day. Ye Lanbi is still a better single-attribute ice spirit root than Shen Ci, even such a genius is so diligent, and there is no reason for me to be lazy if I have been slow for many years before stepping into the cultivation path. On the contrary, I still have a lot of things I want to do, and I need to be stronger!
Seeing her sincerity, Qingyuan Zhenren couldn't help but slow down his face and bowed his head in satisfaction. Compared with Fu Yunsheng's slippery head, this little apprentice is really worry-free.
Qingyuan Zhenren continued: "The spiritual root is a bridge in the human body that can communicate with heaven and earth and absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The attributes of the spiritual root are the various forks in the road on this bridge. But the single-attribute spiritual root is like a flat and spacious bridge. The multi-attribute spiritual root is a small and uneven bridge. Although every fork in the road leads to the avenue, manpower is limited, and even the monk's longevity is not endless. If you greedily go down this road, you will only achieve nothing, and you will not be able to go down any road. ”
Shen Ci nodded: "I understand, there are only two paths to go on the bridge in my body, does Master want me to major in one of them?"
Qingyuan Zhenren smiled and nodded: "Exactly." The qualifications of a dual-attribute spiritual root like you and me are already extremely lucky. If you are still not greedy enough, you will only bring bitter consequences to yourself. ”
"Whether it's multi-attribute or dual-attribute like ours. It is always necessary to choose a major in one attribute and a minor in one. Of your ice and water attributes, the water attribute accounts for the most. However, the ice attribute is a variation of the water attribute, although it does not account for much of it, but after cultivation, the power is stronger than the water attribute. So, it's up to you to decide which attribute you want to major in!"
Shen Ci frowned, pondered for a moment, and said, "The disciple wants to major in the ice attribute!"
Qingyuan Zhenren is not surprised, young man, it is normal to choose attributes with stronger attack power. If it were him, maybe he would have chosen the ice system as well.
"Ice-based spiritual roots are not common, so there aren't many ice-based cultivation techniques. However, the ninth-generation peak master of Tianxuan Peak, the "Ice Spirit Fairy", who has not yet been rebuilt, is a single-attribute Ice Spirit Root, and the 'Ice Heart Jade Spirit Technique' she cultivates is just right for you. The Ice Heart Jade Spirit Technique is a top-level exercise, and the Ice Spirit Sword Qi cultivated is extremely powerful. There are nine folds, and you can cultivate until you ascend to immortal," Qingyuan Zhenren said.
Shen Ci's heart shook wildly when he heard the "Ice Heart Jade Soul Formula", and he barely turned the surprise on his face into surprise.
"Master, wouldn't it be too 。。。。。。 to give such an important exercise to a disciple? Shen Ci said salivatingly.
"I'm not done yet. "Qingyuan True Humanity," although the Ice Heart Jade Spirit Technique is good, it is a pity that this exercise is too difficult to cultivate, and even the Ice Spirit Patriarch himself has not cultivated to the ninth level. And when the sect changed drastically many years ago, the next four volumes were also lost. But now the remaining five volumes are enough for you to cultivate to the out-of-body stage. ”
"I see. Shen Ci nodded, his heart still unable to calm down.
She was simply too familiar with the "Ice Heart Jade Soul Formula"! She had just thought about what kind of opportunity she would have to find if the exercises given by the Master were not as good as the Ice Heart Jade Soul Formula, so that she could justifiably cultivate the Ice Heart Jade Soul Formula.
However, she didn't expect that what the master asked her to cultivate was the Ice Heart Jade Soul Technique! This was the technique that she had been cultivating while watching Ye Lanbi in her previous life! Isn't the Ice Heart Jade Spirit Technique the Ye family's ancestral secret method? The source turned out to be from the Qinghe Sword Sect?
