Chapter 2: Beginning Cultivation
Nothing was said all night.
Early the next morning, Xiao Ling came to his father's room and knocked on the door: "Dad, Ling'er is here." "Ling'er, come in. Xiao Ling pushed the door in, and his father was the only one in the room, and his mother didn't know where he went.
"Dad, how exactly is Ling'er going to start cultivating?" Without waiting for his father to speak, Xiao Ling took the lead in asking.
"Ling'er, before you officially cultivate, Dad has a few words to say to you, you must keep them in mind. Xiao Yu looked at his son in front of him and said slowly.
"Yes, Ling Er remembers his father's teachings!"
"You have always been smart, and you will definitely enter the realm extremely quickly when you cultivate, but remember not to be greedy for merit and rush forward, which will lead to an unstable foundation and it will be difficult to cultivate to a higher realm in the future. The so-called haste is not reached, this is the truth, only by laying a good foundation and making it as stable as a rock, can we go further on the road of cultivation. ”
"Yes, Ling'er knows. ”
"Alright, let's get started. Qi refining is the foundation of cultivation, and the emphasis is on breathing and exhaling the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, attracting spiritual energy into the body, and acting with oneself to produce true qi, changing the physique of mortals, and laying the foundation for cultivation. And the speed of absorbing the aura of heaven and earth to generate true qi depends on a person's talent and roots. People with good qualifications can refine their qi within five years and enter the condensation period, while those with poor qualifications will not be able to reach the condensation period for ten years or even a lifetime. Next, Dad will tell you about the mental method of refining qi......"
For a whole morning, both father and son did not come out of the room, while Xiao Yu introduced his son to the Qi refining method, Xiao Ling also brought up some things he didn't understand from time to time for his father to answer for him.
At noon, Xiao Ling's mother-in-law Lin Wanrou came to ask Xiao Yu and his son to eat, but unexpectedly, the father and son were on the rise, and they refused to eat. Xiao Ling was full of interest in cultivation, and had just obtained the method of cultivation, and he was eager to try; Xiao Yu saw that his son was so interested, and he would inevitably work hard when he cultivated, thinking that his son would definitely have some achievements in the future, he was naturally very happy in his heart, and naturally accompanied his son. Lin Wanrou felt sorry for her son's body, so she finally said that she would move the father and son to eat, but she didn't want Xiao Ling to drop the dishes and chopsticks as soon as she finished eating, and plunged into the room to refine her qi.
Xiao Ling returned to his room, sat cross-legged on the bed, and cultivated according to the Qi Refining Heart Method that his father had given him in the morning. Two hours later, Xiao Ling opened his eyes and said to himself: "Strange, according to my father's words, when the aura of heaven and earth enters the body, there will be a feeling of warmth in the body, I obviously feel that there is indeed a trace of air in the air I breathe that is different from ordinary air, I think it is aura, but why don't I feel warm?" Xiao Ling didn't know one thing: although he would inhale a trace of heaven and earth aura when he practiced breathing and exhaling according to the mental method, he breathed and breathed, and the inhaled aura would be exhaled out of the body, even if the exhaled was not all of the inhalation, it was not much worse, and what was left was just a trace of the inhaled one.
Although there was no expected effect, Xiao Ling was not discouraged, since there was indeed aura entering the body when cultivating, and the mental method was given to him by his father, there would be no mistakes, just continue to practice!
Seven days later, Xiao Ling opened his eyes from the cross-knee cultivation: "Since the body had a warm feeling two days ago, it seems that the speed of absorbing the aura of the weather has become a little faster, well, I think it is because of the cultivation in the past few days, a little aura has accumulated in the body, and the cultivation has also gained a little foundation, so the speed of absorbing aura has become a little faster." ”
If Xiao Yu knew that Xiao Ling's cultivation for seven days had already had a small effect, he would definitely be surprised, because he had spent two months in the beginning.
Three months later, Xiao Ling's body had accumulated ten true qi. Half a year later, Xiao Ling had already reached the second level of qi refining, and the number of true qi in his body had also reached thirty.
With the increase of true qi and cultivation, more and more heaven and earth aura will naturally be inhaled every time you breathe and breathe, and the faster you cultivate after the qi refining period, until you reach the fivefold consummation realm of qi refining, there will be a bottleneck.
Time flies, and a year and a half have passed in a blink of an eye, Xiao Ling has already cultivated to the perfection of qi refining and the true qi in his body has reached the hundred realms as early as half a year ago, but he has never been able to condense the hundred realms of true qi together, so as to step into the qi condensation period; Xiao Ling also asked his father Xiao Yu about this, but Xiao Yu didn't know the reason. Xiao Ling couldn't think of a reason, so he could only attribute it to his lack of hard work, so he cultivated harder.
In fact, it is not that Xiao Ling's kung fu is not enough, the real reason why Xiao Ling has been unable to condense the true qi of the hundred dao together and reach the condensation period is a jade pendant given to him by his mother Lin Wanrou half a year ago. Half a year ago, Lin Wanrou and her younger sister Lu Yao made an appointment to go shopping, and the two walked into a jade shop, Lin Wanrou saw a sword-shaped jade pendant with a simple shape, and at first glance it was carved from ancient jade, plus the jade pendant carved into a sword-shaped is extremely rare, in line with the heroic spirit that a cultivator should have, so he bought it and gave it to his son, but he didn't know that this jade pendant was not an ordinary jade pendant!
This jade pendant is not just a jade pendant, but a natal weapon of an ancient power ten thousand years ago, called the Jade Qing Sword. Since the fall of that great power, the Yuqing Sword has also turned into a streamer and disappeared into the sky, and it has never appeared in people's sight.
This jade sword can usually be hung around the neck as a jade pendant, and when fighting with people, it can be turned into an ontological sword type, slashing the eight directions, and the power is infinite; This divine sword has an effect that most of the gods in the world do not have: when the person who owns it reaches the bottleneck in cultivation and is ready to impact the next realm, it will automatically absorb that person's cultivation, so that its cultivation will be stagnant and not make the slightest progress, and when the accumulated cultivation reaches the limit that the person can bear, it will release all the accumulated cultivation and return it to the person to help him break through the bottleneck in one fell swoop, and after the accumulation of thick and thin, after breaking through the bottleneck, the cultivation is much stronger than the person in the same realm!
This was the reason why Xiao Ling was unable to impact the condensation period for a long time, but of course Xiao Ling couldn't know. However, with the Yuqing Sword, coupled with his own hard cultivation, it laid a very solid foundation for his future achievements.
On this day, Xiao Ling once again struck the condensation. After calming down and feeling the hundred true qi in the dantian, Xiao Ling adjusted himself to the best state, and began to try to condense the hundred true qi together. It is strange to say, in the past, when Xiao Ling tried to condense qi, all the hundred true qi in his body were unmoved, and no matter how Xiao Ling moved, he didn't care about it at all, but today he moved slowly under the operation of Xiao Ling's mental method, and gradually got closer.
"Hmm, there's a door!" Xiao Ling was happy in his heart: "It seems that the bottleneck that has plagued me for half a year and made me unable to go any further will be broken today." ”
Just as Xiao Ling was about to add more force, a tremendous force suddenly emerged from Xiao Ling's body, and it instantly poured into the dantian. Xiao Ling was taken aback, he wanted to stop it but it was too late, and he had a sense of familiarity with this power that he didn't know where it came from, as if this was his own power. After this power rushed into the dantian, not only did it not cause the slightest damage, but instead merged with the hundred true qi that originally existed in the dantian, although the number of true qi did not increase, Xiao Ling clearly felt that the power contained in each true qi had increased a lot compared to before, and it was more handy to use it.
"What's going on? Where did this power come from? It seems to have come out of a thin air, is it true that I have lived in the daytime? And I still seem to have a sense of familiarity with this power, which is strange. Forget it, it's still important to impact the condensation period at the moment, don't think about this matter first, cultivate first. ”
Xiao Ling saw that this power not only did not do him the slightest harm, but seemed to have a great benefit, so he couldn't help but put his mind at ease and concentrate on the condensation period.
As Xiao Ling slowly gathered his true qi into one place, he controlled the hundred true qi to slowly merge into one. It is said that it is slowly fused, but in fact, it is much faster than ordinary people, and it is naturally the credit of Yuqing Sword. This Jade Qing Sword can not only promote the fusion of true qi into one, but also ensure that there will be no accidents when condensing qi, and can enable people to successfully reach the condensation period.
Generally speaking, when a person fails to impact the condensation, no matter how many channels of true qi in the body have been fused, it will re-transform into a hundred paths at the moment of failure, and the process will be repeated when the next impact condensation is made, so that the true qi will be fused back into one. However, as a rare divine artifact in the world, how could its owner fail to condense qi after a small impact on qi refining? If it really failed, how could the Yuqing sword be called the name of a divine artifact? How could it become a natal weapon of ancient power? The jade clear sword could not only promote the fusion of true qi and impact condensation, but also ensure that the failure of qi condensation would never happen.
An hour later, Xiao Ling opened his eyes, opened his mouth to highlight a turbid qi, and the hundred true qi in his body had already fused into one, and he successfully entered the condensation period. If anyone else knew that Xiao Ling only took one hour to impact the condensation success, they would definitely be shocked, you must know that it takes one day and night, that is, twelve hours for people with average qualifications, and at least six hours for those with good qualifications, but Xiao Ling only used one hour, which is really unbelievable.
