Chapter 38 Is Fire and Water Tolerable?
Whoa!
The rushing water mixed with the mud from the upper reaches of the river and cascaded down the steep mountain wall looked a little muddy.
A shirtless young man is sitting under a waterfall with the sun on his head, pranayama with his eyes closed.
The young man's hands often formed different marks, and two faint streaks of green smoke appeared in front of his nose with the rhythm of his breathing, rolled for a while and then disappeared, I don't know whether he was inhaled into his body or drifted away with the wind.
The seemingly calm appearance hides the ups and downs of the mood, and you can find that the spiritual power in the young man's spiritual cave is divided into two even parts, and it is constantly colliding, and there is a faint tendency to go berserk.
"Hiss~"
The tearing pain made his upper and lower teeth cling together, and he shivered involuntarily. Fortunately, due to the refining of his body, his spiritual vein toughness is much stronger than that of ordinary people, and there is no substantial damage in this toss.
Lin Yuan frowned slightly, his expression was solemn, this was the critical moment of the anti-spirit, and he had to devote all his energy to guard against the unknown consequences.
"Hold me down!"
As a loud shout sounded, he ruthlessly mobilized the two spiritual powers to collide with each other again.
"Hmm~"
Lin Yuan let out a muffled snort, exhaling a breath of turbid air in embarrassment, his face was a little pale but could not hide his excitement.
When I first learned the anti-spiritual technique, my spiritual power was not purified, and there was a lot of room for compression, but the further I went, the more difficult it became. Under normal circumstances, the aura he had absorbed in the past ten nights was enough to fill the fourth spiritual vein, but the dumb uncle required him to always control his spiritual power to the extent of the triple perfection of the vein, and the hardships can be imagined.
But the benefits are self-evident, to take the simplest example. Based on the ordinary Extension Pulse Ninefold Cultivator, when Lin Yuan, who had practiced the Reverse Spirit Technique, also reached this realm, the spiritual power he stored might be several percent more than the former.
This advantage is especially obvious in actual combat, where the purity of spiritual power will directly affect the power and durability of spiritual power.
"Master, the task is complete, I can eat!" Lin Yuan stared at the casserole on the lawn in a daze, where a chowder soup was stewed.
"Hmm. The dumb man sat on the stump, holding the bowl in both hands, and his expression was very enjoyable. These days, he's back to being a qualified chef.
"Ten days have passed, and the teacher wants to test your cultivation results. ”
After a while, the dumb man spoke.
"Hehe, the disciple is confident that he will not fall behind against the cultivator of the fivefold battle of the Tuomai. Lin Yuan said proudly.
"Fighting is the most superficial of appearances. The dumb man shook his head and said, "As a teacher, I want to ask you, have you realized something?"
"Enlightenment?" Lin Yuan pondered, "What does the master mean?"
"Say whatever comes to your senses, there is no specific scope. ”
Lin Yuan nodded, bowed and saluted, and then said, "The master asked the disciple to meditate under the waterfall and listen to the noisy sound of the water, because he wanted to hone the disciple's state of mind. In the beginning, the disciples were hindered by harassment and could not enter a state of meditation for a long time, and their hearts would always be restless, but fortunately, they could meditate thanks to the baptism of cold water. ”
"The boulder in the waterhole, which is more than seven zhang wide, is a green rock that is known for its hardness, and no matter how sharp a weapon can leave a mark on it. However, when the disciple stepped on it for the first time, he found that there was a deep hole in its surface. This enlightens the disciples that everything is important to persevere, as long as they are faced with perseverance and perseverance, no matter how great the difficulties are, they will fall apart. ”
"The master said that water and fire are mutually reinforcing, and ordered the disciples to practice the fire spirit method in the water. When I first heard it, it was incredible, and it simply subverted the imagination of the disciples. When I first tried, I felt that I was as small as a grain of sand, and I couldn't mobilize half of my spiritual power at all, and I wanted to give up. After the master's click, the self-confidence was improved, and the impossible in his heart was finally turned into a possibility. ”
So, the disciple realized three things, namely, that cultivation requires meditation, perseverance, and faith. ”
"Well, that's good. The dumb man approving, "Anything else?"
"And ......," Lin Yuan hesitated, "The disciple's other idea may just be whimsical, master is not strange." ”
"Oh?" said the dumb man, curious, "but it doesn't hurt. ”
"Ahem~" Lin Yuan cleared his throat weakly, "It's the master's words that 'water and fire are mutually reinforcing, and the water potential and fire are extinguished instantly', it stands to reason that there is nothing wrong with it, but the disciple suddenly remembered a story he heard from the people when he was a child." It is said that after death, the soul will be put into the underworld, and this underworld belongs to the underworld, and there is such a yellow spring in the deepest part of the underworld, which is pregnant with a dark fire. So the disciple wondered, is there really a flame in the world that is born when it meets water? Or is it really impossible for water and fire to be compatible?"
"Hehe, at the beginning, you didn't believe that you could mobilize the fire spirit method in the water, so the teacher asked you to broaden your horizons, don't be limited to inherent thinking, but I didn't expect that your kid had a big brain, and he couldn't take it back. The dumb man couldn't laugh or cry.
"Hehe, the world doesn't understand the situation in the spiritual cultivation world, and it makes sense to make it up, the disciple just happens to recall it, and the master will listen to it as a joke. ”
"Nope. We monks must believe in the existence of ghosts and gods in our hearts in order to have the belief of immortality, and there must be a dead life in the world, perhaps it is the underworld in your mouth. The dumb man sighed, not knowing whether he was admonishing Lin Yuan or comforting himself.
"The saddest thing about a person is not that the body is controlled, but that the ideas are bound. If you sit in a well and watch the sky, you don't know how big the sky is, and you won't see the outside world clearly. ”
"So, maybe water and fire are not absolutely intolerable, it's just that we haven't reached the realm. ”
"You said it well......"
"Master?" Lin Yuan called weakly, he felt that the dumb man's state didn't seem quite right.
"I'm fine, just a little emotional. The dumb man shook his head, turned his back to Lin Yuan, and fell silent.
Long.
"Let's go, there's no need to practice in the afternoon. ”
"Yes. Lin Yuan obediently washed the kitchen utensils and put them in the Sumeru bag.
"Before leaving, I want to set a goal for you again. The dumb man walked to the waterfall and plunged his right hand into the water.
"Target?"
"Do you think the master can release the fire control trick in the water?"
"How is it possible, don't tease me. Lin Yuan shook his head into a rattle, this was no longer whimsical, it was pure nonsense.
"It's over, the master must have been stimulated by what I just said, and I don't know what happened to him in the past that would make him lose his temper so much. Now he is actually starting to talk nonsense, how can it be possible to release flames in such a large stream of water, isn't this a fool's dream, what should I do?"
"What is the stinky boy muttering, look carefully. The dumb man looked strange and scolded.
"Oh!" Lin Yuan was interrupted coldly, looked in the direction of the sound, and was so shocked that the swear words came out.
What is his identity?
A generation of lords, with a respected status, has been educated in etiquette since childhood, and has never said a single vulgar word in his memory.
Of course, the few times you scolded Wuliang didn't count......
Although the waterfall was slightly cloudy, it could not hide the striking bright gold, which emanated from the hands of the dumb man......
"No way, you must have wrapped the flames with your spiritual power. This was the only method that Lin Yuan could think of, he was not surprised by the color of the flame, he had long known that the compatibility between the dumb man and the fire was also excellent.
"Gather the qi of heaven and earth, turn qi into spirit, take the spirit of all things, and use the body as a tool." People are like furnaces, nourishing the soul with the body, containing the soul with the soul, and preaching the Tao with the spirit!" The dumb man was impassioned, "If the heart is broad and all-encompassing, how can the streams be afraid?
"This seemingly majestic water is ordinary water that no one controls, and the fire in my hand is the immortal spiritual fire! This spirit is not an aura, but a flame itself that is smart, and even a higher realm may make this fire further sublimated and produce spiritual wisdom!"
Lin Yuan's heart shook, and his heartbeat instantly increased several times, if another person told him about this remark, he would definitely scoff at it, but the dumb uncle's own cultivation, the confidence in his tone and the determined look made him believe it.
"Can man really compete with nature?"
"Perhaps, the legendary gods and demons who call for wind and rain and are omnipotent may just be cultivating to become more powerful monks, if they can, I, Lin Yuan, will definitely be able too!"
At this moment, in addition to the small goal of winning the first place on the fire list, the young man's heart also had a more distant big goal, that is, to promote to the Qi Sea realm!
......
After a delay of ten days, the two embarked on the journey again, at the same speed as before, and they could walk about twenty miles on average every hour. Although it can be faster, the purpose of the dumb uncle is not to simply hurry, but to let Lin Yuan increase his knowledge and deeply understand the diversity of the mountains, such as exotic beasts, trees, flowers and plants, medicinal herbs, metal minerals......
"What kind of tree is this?"
"Uh...... Looks like Loufloat?"
"No, it's the needle fir, if you look closely at its leaves, it's slender and thorny, and the Louvin wood is bare with only branches. ”
"Oh. ”
"Look at this again, what kind of flower is it?"
"Sunflower, orchid fragrance, colorful smoke?"
"It's wrong again, it's Red Mo. The dumb man glared, "What kind of beast is flying in the forest on the right?"
"I know this, it's an elkhorn, and the disciple is going to catch it to honor the master. ”
Lin Yuan was ready to chase after him, but was stopped by the dumb uncle.
"Stinky boy, you know how to eat, eat, eat, you don't know anything about flowers and plants, and when you mention strange beasts, you are energetic, who was full of compassion earlier?"
"Cut, those flowers and plants are too boring and impractical, and the disciples are not girls. Lin Yuan spread his hands.
The dumb uncle instilled the "Hundred Herbs" that recorded the vegetation of the Heavenly Flame Mountain Range into his mind, and he only needed to memorize it a little bit with his spiritual thoughts, but he just didn't care.
Many of the vegetation is not as distinctive as the exotic animals, and it is possible to confuse them if you just get a rough picture from the image without actually observing it.
