Chapter 25: Visualization
To put it simply, the foundation building period is the deepening and advancement of the qi training period, the qi training period is the essence and spirit, and the foundation building period is still the essence and spirit.
The cultivation of the Qi cultivation period is actually the training of the body, and the ultimate purpose is to train a huge amount of qi and blood for the manifestation of the spiritual root, and in the eyes of the foundation building monks, the body of the Qi cultivation period monks has only been initially cleansed, and their own physique has been improved to a certain extent.
However, when it comes to the foundation building period, the human body has eight meridians, twelve meridians, and three hundred and sixty-five acupuncture points, and the monk needs to refine all these twenty meridians and three hundred and sixty-five acupuncture points in order to reach the highest level of physical body foundation.
Every time a point is refined, the monk's physical body will increase by one point.
Every time you refine the acupuncture points in the two meridians, you can improve one layer by building the foundation, until you refine the acupoints in the second vein of the last Ren Du, open the 129,600 pores of the whole body, break the boundaries between the inside and outside of the body, and you can break through the foundation building and have one of the conditions for promoting to Jindan, which is the essence.
And with the increase of refining acupoints, the monk's true qi naturally rises with it, and the dantian continues to expand, and finally fills the dantian true qi and produces the inner dan, which is the second condition for the promotion of the golden pill, which is qi.
Mindfulness and visualization are necessary for every foundation-building exercise, and practicing visualization is the practice of mindfulness. Without the increase of the crystallization of consciousness, then there is no way to refine the acupuncture points, this is like a circle, a cycle, from essence to qi, from qi to god, and then from god to essence, without a link, the foundation can not be improved, and the golden pill is even more unpredictable.
Generally speaking, before entering the first layer of contemplation, the things that are visualized cannot even hold on to a breath, and each time the contemplation is raised, the existence time of the visualized thing will be doubled, and so on, when you reach the eighth layer, you can exist for one hundred and eight breaths, and when you reach the ninth layer, it will be a huge amplitude, reaching three hundred and sixty-five breaths.
And the existence time of each breath represents the birth of a crystallization of consciousness, and up to the ninth level of visualization, three hundred and sixty-five crystals of consciousness is the highest level of all foundation-building thoughts. In other words, as long as a monk has the crystallization of consciousness, he can visualize the object for as long as he can be. The first layer of contemplation can be cultivated with only one crystal, the second layer with two, the third layer with only four, and so on, so it can be said that the practice of contemplation is very easy in the early stage, but the more you reach the later levels, the more difficult it will become.
This is the third condition for the promotion of Jindan, this is a god.
The fourth condition for promotion to Jindan is to cultivate and control the spiritual root. If you list the difficulty of the four conditions for promoting the Golden Pill, then the control of the spiritual root position should be the first.
The cultivation of the spiritual root, whether it is the basic five elements spiritual root, or the qualification spiritual root, are included, and the watering of the spirit of knowing the sea is indispensable every day, only when the spiritual root grows to a certain extent, can it break through to the next level of foundation building, and then begin to grow again.
And this is just the growth of the spiritual root, along with the growth of the spiritual root, the monk needs to completely control the spiritual root, and the spirit is integrated into the spiritual root. Specifically, it is the perfect blend of spiritual roots and spirit. I have to say that this is another long and patient training process.
The reason why the foundation is to build the foundation is to build the foundation of the monk's avenue. Therefore, in the foundation building experience in Ling Shuge, they all invariably, either explicitly or implicitly, remind the importance of the monk's foundation building period. During the foundation building period, we should extend the progress of cultivation as much as possible, accumulate as much foundation building as possible, and only build a perfect foundation for entering the Supreme Avenue in the future.
As long as the foundation building monks grasp these four central veins, they will naturally not take a detour when they practice.
Picking the Green Emperor Qiantian Gong Rune Fruit on the spiritual root, Qin Yuan finally decided to officially start practicing the Zhenfeng Inheritance Technique of the Blue Emperor Peak today.
After the familiar entrance oath sounded, another hour, Qin Yuan roughly understood the main content of the Blue Emperor's Qiantian Gong.
The Qingdi Qiantian Gong Foundation Building Method is divided into nine layers, corresponding to the nine layers of foundation building.
In addition, there are also a number of magical powers sealed in the foundation building chapter, defensive supernatural powers, offensive supernatural powers, and paving supernatural powers, all of which start with small supernatural powers.
One of the supernatural powers has attracted Qin Yuan's attention, but he can't pay attention to it if he wants to. This is a magical psychic power. Seriously, the magic of the mind is also part of the foundation of the mind.
The Qingdi Heart Source Technique is the name of this little supernatural power, and only the true qi is transformed through the Qingdi Heart Source Technique, and then according to the operation of the heart method, the two can cooperate to truly practice the unique true qi of the Blue Emperor Qiantian Gong, and only the Qingdi Heart Source Qi can drive the various magical powers in the foundation building chapter.
Finally, it is the visualization map of the Qingdi icon of the Qingdi Qiantiangong, which takes the Qingdi icon as the visualization object, increases the consciousness, and condenses the crystallization of the consciousness. This Blue Emperor Visualization Diagram is the only visualization technique that does not have a grade in the foundation building exercises, and it can be practiced all the way along with Qin Yuan's cultivation growth. It can be said that the most precious thing in the foundation building chapter is this visualization of the statue of the Blue Emperor. It is also the general outline of all the views and ideas of Qingdi Peak.
"The first step is to practice to the first level of foundation building, first of all, to refine the hand Taiyin lung meridian in the three yin heart meridians of the hand, and the two meridians of the hand yin pericardial meridian. There are 22 acupuncture points in the hand Taiyin lung meridian, and 18 acupoints in the hand and yin pericardial meridians, a total of 40 acupoints.
Now there are still four Consciousness Crystals left in the Sea of Consciousness, except for one Awareness Crystal, which needs to be left as a visualization seed, that is, thirty-seven Awareness Crystals are still needed. “
After quickly calculating the consciousness crystals required to break through to the first level of foundation building, Qin Yuan officially began his first visualization practice.
In the early stages of visualization practice, the monk needs the visualization map to enter to guide the visualization practice, and the clearer and more realistic the visualization map is, the more natural the spiritual charm is, the better the monk's visualization effect will be. Therefore, the quality of the visualization diagram is also a major factor that restricts the speed of a monk's practice.
The Zhenfeng Exercise of the Blue Emperor Peak, the visualization map of the Holy Statue of the Blue Emperor is naturally not an ordinary visualization map.
The statue of the Green Emperor is dressed in the robes of the Nine Dragons and the Green Emperor, wearing the twelve crowns of the Qingyun Emperor, wearing green silk shoes on his feet, and wearing the green dragon and playing beads around his waist. His face was angry, and his hands were sealed.
Nine dragons compete for brilliance on the clothes and shoes, reflecting each other, the nine dragons seem to be trapped at the bottom of the abyss, struggling can't, every dragon whisker, every pair of dragon eyes, every scale, are lifelike, the big dragon is not angry and self-mighty, the whole body dragon tendons faintly emerge, and the dragon tendons and the whole body veins of the Qingdi icon seem to echo each other, reflecting each other, mysterious and inexplicable.
The Blue Emperor Icon was like a real person imprinted into Qin Yuan's soul. Qin Yuan observed this Blue Emperor Icon for three days before he could grasp a trace of the unique charm of the Blue Emperor Statue.
And at the moment of grasping the charm of the holy icon, Qin Yuan's four consciousness crystals naturally jumped out of the spiritual root, melted into liquid, blended into one, the imperial crown, Xia Yi, silk shoes, dragon pendant, great anger phase, inspiration seal, cast one by one, and then a large number of consciousness in the spiritual root swarmed out and filled into the skeleton of the Blue Emperor icon, but even so, this holy image was only the size of a thumb. It took a whole breath of time for this statue of the Blue Emperor that Qin Yuan had visualized to collapse and disperse again, turning into five consciousness crystals and a large number of cognitions.
"The first visualization broke through to one layer, and there was one more crystallization of consciousness, and this visualization of the Blue Emperor Icon was really good. ”
Practice visualization no more than three times a day, otherwise it will damage the spiritual foundation.
And Qin Yuan's visualization cultivation seemed to be overwhelming, extremely weird. The other two visualizations of the day, each of which broke through a level, crystallized into one.
By the end of the third visualization, Qin Yuan's visualization level had already broken through the third layer, and the crystallization of consciousness had also reached seven crystals.
The second day's strange visualization continued, the first time the visualization broke through the fourth layer, and the consciousness crystals reached eight crystals, and the second strange continued, the consciousness crystals increased by one crystal, but the fifth level of visualization did not reach.
Naturally, this situation was also in Qin Yuan's expectations, and the days of soaking in Ling Shuge that month were not in vain.
The final stage of the manifestation of the spiritual root can condense a few crystals of cognition, so no matter how many crystals are consumed before, when you practice the contemplation for the first time, the level of contemplation will break through to the visualization level where the initial number of crystals is located in a very short period of time, and at each breakthrough layer, one crystal of cognition crystals will be restored. But this kind of opportunity is only once, and if you want to brush up the crystallization of consciousness in this way, you will be depressed to death.
This is the advantage of the number of consciousness crystals obtained when manifesting the spiritual root, with the advantage of Qin Yuan's original nine crystals, he can go straight to the fifth layer of contemplation and restore the five crystals of consciousness crystals.
After the manifestation of the spiritual root, the initial condensed consciousness crystallization may not be able to reach seven to nine crystals for those with excellent qualifications, and three crystals for those with inferior qualifications.
And the people who have the more crystals of the initial crystallization can save a lot of time in the early stage. Generally speaking, for a contemplation to condense a crystallization of cognition, it takes a hundred crystals of visualization to be able to produce it at one time, and it takes a lot of cognition. As a result, if a monk starts with only one crystal, he has to visualize it a hundred times, and it takes more than a month to condense one crystal. The premise is to be able to break through the level of contemplation.
In exchange for Qin Yuan, he has the advantage of nine crystals, and he can increase one crystal in only twelve days, and the larger the crystallization base, the less time it takes to condense and crystallize his mind. But this is not absolute, the main reason is that after Qin Yuan restored the nine crystals, a lot of consciousness was consumed, as the saying goes, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and if there is no knowledge, how can she condense the crystallization of knowledge.
Therefore, Qin Yuan's top priority now is to raise the number of crystals of consciousness to the limit of the number of crystals that can be reached by the fifth layer of contemplation, sixteen crystals.
And in order to maintain the speed of contemplation to the greatest extent, after reaching the sixteen crystals, the contemplation will enter a bottleneck stage, at this time, you can take the method of refining a knack, and then use the method of contemplation to restore one crystal to exercise the purity of cognition, these are all the experiences that Qin Yuan summed up in Ling Shuge.
The idea has come to an end, and there is no possibility of a breakthrough in the short term. It takes two or three months to cultivate the contemplation to the sixteen crystals. In the past two or three months, Qin Yuan naturally has not been idle, and in a month's time, Qin Yuan replaced the original foundation building method with the first layer of the foundation building method of the Blue Emperor Qiantian Gong, but there is no relationship between the heart method and the Qingdi Heart Source Technique, although the true qi cultivated has been greatly improved, it is not the real unique true qi of the Blue Emperor Heart Source Qi.
And for more than a month, Qin Yuan unsealed the only item he brought out from the Taoist temple, the microscope.
But this time, he's going to make a big one, and that's the first step in the big plan he's envisioning.
