Ishikawa said calmly: "Everything in the world has a spiritual vein in the body, just like heaven and earth also have a spiritual vein, any sect is built on the spiritual vein of heaven and earth, even mortals and beasts have their own spiritual veins, they are just relatively thin, and those with deep spiritual veins can embark on the path of cultivation." ”

"The first level of cultivation is to introduce the heaven and earth vitality into the spiritual veins in the body and turn them into true elements, this level you should have passed, and the tricks are to use the true elements to open up the 108 knots in the spiritual veins around the body, and the knots are passed, so that the true elements can circulate in the body, store them slowly, and lay the foundation for building a foundation. Then it is to expand the body and fill the acupoints, cleanse the body impurities, so that the physical body is transformed into the Taoist body, so as to condense the spirit and produce spiritual consciousness. ”

"And the absolute vein, but it is extremely rare, the absolute pulse, a absolute word, as the name suggests, is to cut off, the monk's spiritual veins and knots are actually blocked, but their blocking is compared with your barriers, it is like the difference between a piece of rice paper and a city wall, so even if you introduce more heaven and earth vitality, you can't open up the acupoints through the barrier, and if the acupoints don't pass, you can't make the true yuan circulate in the body, let alone build a foundation, and you will never be able to continue to practice......"

After a pause, Ishikawa continued: "Even if there are great supernatural powers to help you break through the barriers, and even help you to induce qi into your body and transform the element, but even so, it will take some effort to complete the foundation building without damaging the spiritual veins at all, and when you have enough to build the foundation, you have passed the best age, how can you step into the next level? Not to mention where is the great supernatural power so easy to find?"

After listening to this, Xiao Yue looked bitter, thinking that he had worked so hard and practiced for a few years, but it was such a result.

Since a few years ago, he practiced sword forging with Ma Boss and other swordsmen, and learned to practice qi with Qing Mingzi, and this time he came into contact with a master like Seven Kills Zhenren by borrowing Zhang Yuanwai's matter, and he thought that even if he couldn't reach the sky in one step, he could still point to a clear path, and he didn't calculate that it was such a result, and Ishikawa couldn't help but be discouraged when he said that Rao is Xiaoyue's tenacity and tenacity.

Seeing Xiao Yue like this, Ishikawa seemed to be unbearable, and after a moment of silence, he said: "The path of cultivation, in the eyes of outsiders, is to ride the wind, transcendent from the world, and incomparably free, but I don't know how many hardships and obstacles, hardships and helplessness. ”

Stopped, Ishikawa sat back on the wooden chair, fell into memory, "I was originally a child of a family, three hundred and fifty years ago, I accidentally got the Taoist book, but at that time I was already dozens of years old, so I didn't take it to heart at the time, and then at first glance, the dynasty changed, the war was in chaos, the family suddenly suffered a catastrophe, relatives were cut off, and I embarked on the road of cultivation in frustration, but I had already missed the best age to practice, but with a crooked luck and my own efforts, I stumbled over the threshold of qi induction, passage, foundation building, and condensation. ”

Speaking of this, Ishikawa sighed, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, "The difficulties along the way are really not enough for outsiders, even if I step into the path of cultivation, it is a rootless and loose cultivation, after the foundation is built, I also want to find a sect, and there are good people who point out that there is a reliance on practice, but I am always turned away, too, a practitioner like me can be described in nine words, that is, I am old, my realm is low, my qualifications are poor, and the cultivation sect is not a Yangshan Hall, how can I be included in the door and waste resources." ”

"And what happened later?" Xiao Yue asked cautiously.

"Later, I worked hard and went through hardships, and by chance, I finally met with the dragon and the tiger, and Dingding Dancheng was completed. At this time, I can go to some small sects to be an outer sect elder, but I have been used to being alone for so many years, but I am not used to the life of the sect, so I still practice alone, so until now, after Dancheng, I thought about it carefully, but I felt that with my conditions, it was impossible to go further, shatter the Dan and turn into a god, and reach the realm of the original god and real person. ”

When Ishikawa said this, he was silent, and after a while, he said to himself in a bit of distraction: "Back then, the name of the Taoist book I accidentally got was ......"

Speaking of the title of the book, Ishikawa suddenly stopped talking, and after a moment of silence, he continued: "It's not that I cherish the broom, it's really that you know what kind of Dao method is very bad for you and me, and I don't want to do that murderous and secret thing." ”

Xiao Yue nodded repeatedly: "What the immortal chief said is very true. ”

Ishikawa snorted, "After I started practicing, I studied carefully and cultivated hard, but I was never able to follow the practice contained in the book, and I had no choice but to select some of the contents to figure out, and then I learned many useful or useless methods in my travels, and in this way, I cultivated step by step to the realm of Ning Dan, and the difficulties were really impossible to resort to." ”

"Now that I want to go down, it is a forbidden area for me, and I can only end up dying with a broken meridian by forcing my own practice. The positive cultivation method contained in the book, although my qualifications are not high, I can still hone it slowly, but there is no way to apply the retrograde method to the opposite, the cultivation is said to be against the sky, which means to compete with heaven and earth for its own life, and the cultivation must conform to the laws of heaven and earth, which is the so-called imitation of heaven and earth. If you talk about going against the sky, unless you have cultivated to the realm of transcendence and non-catastrophe that follows the law, and this realm, even if you go through the world several times today, there are only a few people, how can I be compared with it? ”

Ishikawa took another sip of tea: "The cultivation method recorded in the Taoist book violates the principle of a certain mode of operation between heaven and earth from the beginning, and if a normal monk wants to practice, the spiritual veins in his body will not be able to withstand all kinds of irregularities and damage caused by reversal, so he can't continue to cultivate no matter what, and I was like this at the beginning." Later, in order to solve this problem, I traveled through thousands of mountains and rivers, searched for classics, and inadvertently found a possibility, but I was hindered by my constitution and could not try, otherwise, I always had to try anyway to give up. ”

Speaking of this, Ishikawa didn't talk deeply, patted Xiao Yue's shoulder and said: "I have lived for more than four hundred years, and I have lived enough for so long, and now there is no hope of breaking through the realm, but there is nothing to pursue, I like your temperament very much, and we are also fated, at the moment I have a few internal sword cheats on hand, so I will give them to you, and after practicing hard for a few years, wouldn't it be happy to become a generation of sword masters in the mortal world?"

Xiao Yue helped Ishikawa fill up the tea, and said seriously: "Immortal Chief, since I met the Daoist of the Qing Shenzi a few years ago and started to cultivate qi, although I have not made much progress, I am really unwilling to stop here, the sword technique is only an auxiliary means for me to strengthen my body and protect my life, if I can have a glimmer of hope for cultivation, the kid will hold on to it no matter what." ”

Ishikawa drank the tea, turned his head and stared at Xiao Yue, Xiao Yue flinched slightly, but stopped, and met Ishikawa's gaze directly, without a trace of change in his expression.
