047 Awakening Attempt (Part I)
For seven days in a row, Lin Xiaotian was intoxicated with reading various annotations and "Basic Internal Strength", and he was so intoxicated that he forgot to sleep and eat.
This is Lin Xiaotian's biggest gain after coming to the Great Interstellar Era - he has found a hobby other than cooking, cultivation!
There are two kinds of cultivation, the cultivation of Xuanmen, also known as the cultivation of spiritual power, and the other is the cultivation of dantian, also known as the cultivation of dantian qi.
The two complement each other, but they are all one, and they are very mysterious.
A martial artist may be a little more important, it may be that the spiritual power is stronger, or it may be that the dantian qi is stronger, but this can only be said to be comparatively speaking, in general, if you want to make a further breakthrough, you must make progress in both aspects.
Through these days of research, Lin Xiaotian has also found some ways, since yesterday, he always wanted to try to see if he could wake up the dantian and the Xuanmen.
Awakening is the first step in cultivation, and it is also a crucial step, often the strength of a person's martial arts talent will seriously affect the time of awakening.
An ordinary person may need a year, or even two years to explore the so-called "Qi of Heaven and Earth" (the energy is called the Qi of Heaven and Earth in "Basic Internal Strength"), but a person with extraordinary talent may only need a week, a day, or even an hour!
There are different methods of awakening, and some people choose to use high-pressure exercises to hone to the extreme of physical and mental, which often forces out the potential in the human body.
In this way, a gap will be opened between the Xuanmen and the dantian, so as to achieve the purpose of awakening.
There are also people who choose to use a more gentle way, using the way of communication, to try to get in touch with Xuanmen and Dantian, this way is like a person who has lost the ability to control a part of the body to do rehabilitation training.
These methods are all the experience summed up by the predecessors, and there is already a very systematic training method, but ordinary people will not understand it, and only the martial artists who have experienced it know how to wake up.
Although Lin Xiaotian is not a martial artist, he has read the annotated book for a week, and he has already understood the awakening, and in terms of theoretical knowledge alone, he is no worse than a martial arts apprentice.
This is not to say that Lin Xiaotian's talent in martial arts is so good that he can understand it at one point, but those annotations are really powerful, even if he is a martial arts idiot, after reading those books, he can shake his head and say the truth for a long time.
Therefore, the reason why Lin Xiaotian is so different from a week ago is really normal, after all, those theoretical books and classes are packed into his mind.
After seeing too much, what Lin Xiaotian wants to do most now is to try!
For ordinary people, awakening will not be a one-time thing, but a journey of a hundred turns and thousands of turns, and it takes countless failures to succeed.
Therefore, Lin Xiaotian does not have to have too much psychological burden, he is ready to wake up for the first time in his life.
It is the first time, but it is not necessarily, as early as ten years ago, the previous generation of young Lin Xiaotian insisted on many awakening rituals, and the newly awakened little fat man stuffed Lin Xiaotian with the method in the school, trying to make him awaken too, but in vain.
The ritual of awakening also varies from person to person, and the awakening at that time was definitely a lot of children's fighting, and it was reasonable that it was unsuccessful, but the young Lin Xiaotian was hit hard, which has always been a criticism in his heart, and since then, he has no longer mentioned cultivation.
......
In the early morning of this day, Lin Xiaotian completed the first half of the four-flavor blood-replenishing porridge, and just waited for the time to start the pot.
With nothing to do, Lin Xiaotian's heart began to ripple, in the past few days, he was almost able to memorize the "Basic Internal Strength" upside down, and the annotation book had been read no less than three times, and he had a sufficient understanding of awakening.
Suddenly, a thought popped into my mind, why not try a wake-up ritual while I had nothing to do?
This thought made Lin Xiaotian's heart itch unbearably, and the feeling was like a kitten spinning in his heart, which made him more and more uncomfortable.
Tilting his head and looking at the kitchen, there was just white gas floating on the edge of the iron pot, and it would take half an hour to start the pot, which was enough for him to toss for a while.
"Why don't you try to communicate?"
Touching his chin, Lin Xiaotian said to himself, he looked up and saw that it was still early, the sun was only half exposed, and the east was just red, and it was estimated that the fat man and the neighbors would arrive later.
Saying that, Lin Xiaotian couldn't stop the impulse in his heart anymore, he turned around and walked into the bedroom, sat cross-legged on the bed, ready to challenge the path of martial arts for the first time and start cultivating!
The cultivation method chosen by Lin Xiaotian is the most ordinary, and it is also the most talented, the method of communication, also known as the "method of meditation", "meditation method", etc., is an ancient way that has been used since ancient times.
There is nothing surprising about this method, it is decent, the time is not fast, the danger is not great, compared to those awakening methods that have been improved later, it seems to be a little backward, and the difficulty has increased greatly.
However, it is said that those ancient families chose to use this way to awaken their younger generations, which is a kind of inheritance and a kind of honing of talent.
People who are awakened in this way will have a certain degree of influence on their talents.
Everyone says so, as for whether it is true or false, no one has to prove it, and there is no way to prove it, talent is one of the most unpredictable aspects.
......
Lin Xiaotian sat cross-legged on the bed, his mind surging with the meditation method mentioned in the commentary.
The first step in meditation is to empty your mind and allow yourself to fall into a half-asleep state, which is like dozing off, leaving you confused and unable to distinguish between reality and illusion.
This step is the most difficult to achieve, if it weren't for Lin Xiaotian's meditation and tai chi that he had also learned from those masters for a period of time when he was studying medicinal diet, Lin Xiaotian would not have been able to do it easily.
Originally, it was a study of self-cultivation and strengthening the understanding of medicinal diet, but I didn't expect it to come in handy now.
It only took Lin Xiaotian a short time to reach the point of meditation.
Meditation is a lower level than meditation, but it can also reach the minimum mentioned in the book, which can empty the mind and leave the brain in a blank state.
When the mind is free of distractions, most of the organs of the body will enter a semi-dormant state, and the activity will be greatly reduced, and this is the time when those sleeping organs will wake up.
Just like the transition between day and night, the human body echoes with heaven and earth, and the sky has the alternation of sun and moon, and the human body will naturally have the transition of day and night.
The sound of breathing became slower and slower, and Lin Xiaotian only felt like he had returned to the days when he was studying medicinal diets, and he was in the mountains, and every morning, he sat cross-legged on the big stone with the medicinal diet master.
The air is fresh, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and if you listen carefully, you can hear the sound of morning dew sliding on the tips of the leaves.
This is just an unconscious imagination, but it comes from the deepest impression in Lin Xiaotian's mind, because the meditation experience in those years made his fantasy generate this scene.
The first step of meditation, Lin Xiaotian easily did it! Half-asleep and half-awake, like a dream-like realm!
Experience is indeed an important cornerstone of success, and Lin Xiaotian's experience in his previous life has helped him a lot, and those twenty years have not been in vain.
