Chapter 8: Cultivation
"Smack", Zhao Mengnan fell to the ground sideways, his body curled, and he kept screaming, but he was now a monk in the round injury stage, this height was nothing, but he was not used to it yet.
Zhao Mengnan got up, he was discouraged, and walked towards the palace with a pout.
Back in the palace, the man in white seemed to sense his arrival and quietly appeared in the main hall.
"Tell me how I can get out", Zhao Mengnan asked again, he looked a little cold, in fact he hadn't laughed since he was captured by the thieves of the cottage. His face was cold at all times.
"When you have cultivated, you can naturally go out", the man in white replied again.
"To what extent," Zhao Mengnan asked.
"How do I know, no one has ever gone out alive, only you try slowly", the man in white teased.
"Is there any way to quickly improve my cultivation?"
"No, but the three secret methods on the table that you can cultivate, maybe it will help you", the man in white pointed to the three bamboo slips on the square table.
Zhao Mengnan didn't say anything, walked to the square table, took a bamboo slip at random, and began to open it and look through it.
"Ancient text", Zhao Mengnan has a black line, presumably the days of this bamboo slip are incomparably long, he can't understand the content recorded on it, only a few characters he can understand, this can kill him, even a mistake in the secret method can lead to madness, not to mention that most of them can't be understood, so if you hold it like this, you can't practice at all.
He read the other two volumes again, and the result was the same, he couldn't understand anything, and he couldn't help but look at the man in white.
"What's the matter, you have a request for me", the man in white leaned sideways, his head slightly raised.
"Hmph, whoever asks you, I don't cultivate", Zhao Mengnan originally wanted to beg him, but when he saw the other party's disdainful expression, he suddenly lost his mood, even if he wanted to learn, he didn't want to be known by the man in white in front of him.
"Forget it, I'll translate it for you, you can show me a copy", the man in white pointed to the bamboo slips on the table.
Zhao Mengnan was not hypocritical, he took a volume and handed it to him at random, secretly looking forward to it in his heart, he couldn't get out here anyway, and he had nothing to do, and the exercises he practiced were exercises that could be picked up on the street, the quality could be imagined, and he also wanted to see what the three volumes of secret methods here were.
The man in white opened the bamboo slip, stretched out his index finger with his right hand, and began to gesture in the air. His index finger passed everywhere, forming a modern script, although it is modern, but the writing is indeed in traditional Chinese, and I don't know if it is intentional or only in traditional Chinese.
The words condensed in the air, faintly surrounded by thunder and lightning. Zhao Mengnan hurriedly studied, although he is now in simplified Chinese, he can still read traditional Chinese characters accurately.
In a moment, the man in white had already written out all the secret methods on this bamboo slip, and then he took a finger of his palm, and another scroll of bamboo slips appeared in his hand, and the secret method in his hand had been put back on the table at some point.
It didn't take long for the three volumes of secret methods to be translated into modern Chinese with traditional Chinese by the man in white, and those words floated and fell in the air, condensing but not dispersing, Zhao Mengnan did not speak, but entered an ethereal state, and he was silently comprehending.
"White Thunder Sutra", this is a practice of cultivation, which can allow cultivators to build a better foundation, which is like eating, some people eat vegetarian, and some people eat delicacies from the mountains and seas, naturally their physical condition is different, generally speaking, eating well will grow relatively better, so good exercises are very important for people.
The second bamboo slip is recorded in the "Xiao Luo Xian Finger", which is a fingering technique that can be used in battle to improve combat power, and the world calls this kind of exercise an injury technique. There are also levels of injury skills, but "Xiao Luo Immortal Finger" does not say what level it is.
The last one is called "Divine Soul Reincarnation", which is a forbidden art, claiming to be able to resurrect from the dead, but only in the Netherworld, which means that you can be resurrected in the Nether after death, but with the help of other people's bodies.
Zhao Mengnan has been silently realizing, when he saw the "reincarnation of the soul", his heart was beating violently, "Mo Fei someone wants to use his body", this is Zhao Mengnan's idea, but he has no evidence, and he himself has no discomfort, think about it, I don't know how many people have been here in ancient times, and they have already been reincarnated, and they will not wait until now, although they comfort themselves so much, they still leave a knot in Zhao Mengnan's heart.
This is a world of thunder and lightning, it is a peerless treasure for thunder injury, Zhao Mengnan is addicted to cultivation all day long, the origin of cultivation in the middle and nether realm is called Yuan Force, referred to as Yuan Force, also known as spiritual power. After Zhao Mengnan renovated the White Thunder Sutra, the speed of cultivation was much faster than before, and his next step was to form a ball of the original injury in his body, and now the surface of the original injury was covered with electric traces, and he could soon reach the late stage of the round injury and break through to the refining stage.
Unconsciously, a month has passed, these days Zhao Mengnan has been practicing hard, and finally reached the late stage of the round injury, he couldn't wait to run to the edge of the cliff and try to climb up, not long after, he fell down again, this time climbing higher, so he fell even worse, the scream, it was like killing his parents, it was called a tragedy!
"Poof", at this moment, a scorched black bird fell from the sky, and the bird's head was planted in Zhao Mengnan's mouth, Zhao Mengnan was like a chicken blood, and he plucked the bird's feathers in two strokes, he kept his saliva and his eyes were straight.
"It's going to be a minute", Zhao Mengnan said, and began to tear the bird's **, the bird was burned by thunder and lightning, and there was almost no need to cook, but the original taste was not very good, Zhao Mengnan had no choice, it had been a month, there was nothing in it, fortunately, he still had a thousand-year-old fruit on his body, but the thousand-year-old fruit was a treasure, how could he waste it casually, but Zhao Mengnan didn't care so much, he was really hungry and couldn't stand it, so he ate one, fortunately, occasionally one or two birds would fall from the sky, which relieved Zhao Mengnan's appetite.
"What kind of realm can you get out of here", Zhao Mengnan usually eats bird meat, while talking to himself.
"Forget it, anyway, it's not the opponent of those bandits to go up now, let's go out when the cultivation is enough, although it's a little bitter", Zhao Mengnan was also very helpless, he didn't even have food to eat in this place, he really wanted to leave early, but thinking that there was still a group of bandits above, he had to stay obediently and cultivate slowly.
Soon, Zhao Mengnan broke through to the refining period, this realm is to condense the original injury, the original round injury period is just a hollow sphere, and the refining period is to materialize the original injury, and then you can break through to the condensation stage. The condensation period is the same as the refining period, it is the condensation of the original injury, but the condensation period is to continuously condense and condense the original injury of the entity, and then condense it, this step is just to prepare for the next realm.
"Hey, Baiqiu, what the hell do you say about this little Luo Xianzhi, I can't practice it well", these days, Zhao Mengnan and the man in white have also become familiar, he gave the other party a name called Baiqiu, he saw that he was dressed in white, and he always liked to enter the round ball on the table, so he simply called it Yuanqiu. For the white ball, the man in white was a little unaccustomed at first, but then he accepted it after a long time.
"How many times have you said it, you have to mobilize the Yuan Force into your hands, let the Yuan Force condense and then integrate it into your hands", Bai Qiu said without bothering.
"Is it to mobilize the Yuan Force in the body or condense it outside the body, why should the Yuan Force in the body be condensed outside the body, and then it will be condensed into the hand", Zhao Mengnan is very puzzled, sometimes it is such a hurdle but it can block people for a lifetime, as long as it breaks through, it can be smooth sailing, but now Zhao Mengnan has not opened his mind at all.
"You are learning now, and when you really learn, this process can naturally be omitted, whether it is the Yuan Force in the outside world, or the Yuan Force in your body, you can condense it for me", Bai Qiu shook his head, he was almost angry with the kid in front of him, he couldn't make sense no matter what he said.
Zhao Mengnan listened to his words, mobilized Yuan Li to the palm of his hand, and he ran the method, and there was no movement for a while. He was not discouraged, regrouped, still failed, he shook his head, and continued.
While looking at Zhao Mengnan's white ball, he kept shaking his head, he was very dissatisfied with Zhao Mengnan's performance, and after watching it for a while, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to hide in the ball and didn't care about anything.
"Ah, I succeeded", I don't know how many times, Zhao Mengnan finally condensed the Yuan Force into the palm of his hand, although it was very weak, but Zhao Mengnan was extremely excited, but this is the first step, and then the Yuan Force will be put into the palm of the hand, this is the key, in fact, the light condenses the Yuan Force into the palm of the hand Zhao Mengnan can still do it, but after using the method of Xiao Luo Xian's finger, he can't do it, but now that he has done it, it is not difficult to do it later.
"Oh, is it? I'll take a look", a whirlpool swayed on the side of the ball, and the white ball came out of it, he was a little excited, it couldn't be helped, how many years has he lived in this place alone, no one to accompany him, since Zhao Mengnan came, he found a lot of fun.
Zhao Mengnan stretched out his palm, closed his eyes, and slowly condensed his Yuan Force.
"Poof...... Poof...... "There was thunder and lightning blooming in his palm, and a ball of light with thunder and lightning gradually formed, Zhao Mengnan opened his eyes and looked at the white ball proudly.
"It hasn't condensed into the palm of your hand yet, what are you talking about?"
"Look at it", Zhao Mengnan ran Xiao Luo Xian's finger secret method, and the thunder light on his palm slowly disappeared into his palm.
"Ah, it hurts", Zhao Mengnan did this for the first time, and there was a sharp pain in his palm.
Finally, the thunder light did not enter his palm, and his hand faintly burst out with thunder and lightning, emitting a trace of white light.
"Haha, I'll just say I'm a genius", Zhao Mengnan smiled proudly.
"Play it out and try it", Bai Qiu was also surprised, he didn't expect that Zhao Mengnan had just learned to condense the Yuan Force and could integrate it into the palm of his hand.
"Ha", Zhao Mengnan slashed out with a palm, his target was the skeleton on the ground, after all, only the skeleton here could let him fight.
"Poof" palm wind came out, and the skeleton didn't move at all, but the dust under him moved slightly. When Zhao Mengnan saw this kind of scene, he couldn't help but lower his head.
"Haha, boy, it's still far away", Baiqiu smiled and left again, leaving Zhao Mengnan alone to look at his palms in a daze.
