Chapter Twenty-Three: Cultivation in the Stone Chamber
"Whew!"
The little beast roared at Yu Qingwu again and again, just like when it faced the colorful python, indicating that it regarded Yu Qingwu as an enemy at this moment. Yu Qingwu frowned, and then said to himself with a wry smile: "Why did I ask about a beast, how can it tell me even if it knows the Dao?"
He looked at the little beast on the verge of going berserk, put away the mountain axe casually, and laughed at himself: "Even if you are the descendant of some peerless demon, it has nothing to do with me. Slaying demons and demons is the business of the Yu family, and I am not from the Yu family......"
Yu Family...... Yu Family...... The Yu family, which had been powerful in the world for decades, disappeared from the moment Yu Shixiong abolished his own son. A family without an heir, no matter how strong it is, there is a time limit!
Seeing that Yu Qingwu withdrew the axe, a trace of doubt flashed between the eyes of the little beast, but the hair on his body also softened. Even though it is gifted, its mind is similar to that of a human child, if you are good to me, I will be good to you, and if you are not good to me, I will be bad to you.
Yu Qingwu grinned, took out the jade bottle from his arms, poured out a Bigu Dan and handed it to the little beast. The little beast was still a little wary at first, but when it saw the black pill in Yu Qingwu's palm, it was immediately attracted, poked its head, its nose twitched, and when it found that this pill exuded a burst of fragrance, its tongue immediately rolled, and rolled the Bigu Pill in Yu Qingwu's palm into its mouth, and after swallowing for a while, it showed a look of enjoyment.
"Little red is good!" Yu Qingwu raised his hand and touched the soft hair on the little beast's head and said with a smile.
As soon as he heard Yu Qingwu's words, the little beast immediately showed a puzzled look, not understanding what Yu Qingwu was talking about. Yu Qingwu smiled, pointed at the little beast and said, "From now on, you will be called Xiaohong, this name is very good!" After speaking, without waiting for the little beast to react, he himself laughed first.
Although the little beast didn't understand what Yu Qingwu was saying, it could feel Yu Qingwu's pleasure, and it immediately opened its mouth, revealing a mouthful of sharp white teeth, and at the same time raised its paw to point to the jade bottle containing Bigu Dan in Yu Qingwu's hand, obviously thinking that Bigu Dan tasted good, and wanted to have a few more.
"This can't be done!" Yu Qingwu's head shook like a rattle, and he pointed to the beast bones not far away and said, "Go and gnaw the bones, I still have this Bigu Dan!"
The Bigu Pill can not only Bigu, but also increase the power of the soul, which is extremely helpful for cultivation. Now that he has decided to cultivate both Dao and martial arts, he naturally needs a large amount of Bigu Dan, how can he let Xiaohong eat it as a jelly bean!
"Whew......" Xiaohong was displeased for a while, and shouted at Yu Qingwu dissatisfied, but she still walked towards the beast bone and bit down hard.
Seeing this, Yu Qingwu smiled lightly, then sat cross-legged, took out the Nine Spirits Great Sutra from his arms, and then while observing and studying, he held the mixed yuan with both hands, and his tongue was against the roof of his mouth. When he had to memorize the first few mantras of the Nine Spirits Sutra for the time being, he let go of his mind and breathed freely, and practiced the method of breathing and breathing.
"Hiss......"
He took a deep breath, then counted the amount of breath and divided it into five more exhalations. Unfortunately, the breath exhaled for the first time is not the same as the breath exhaled at the last time, which also means that this method of breathing and absorbing for five long and five short breaths has failed.
Jun Tianzhen once said that it takes about a year for those with excellent understanding to master this method of breathing and breathing, two years for those with excellent understanding, and five years for those with intermediate understanding. Of course, this is not absolute, it is possible that a person with mediocre understanding has succeeded once by mistake, and he who has had a successful experience must be easier to grasp than others.
Yu Qingwu knew very well that the old servant Fu Bo once said that he belonged to the superior posture whether it was talent or understanding, whether it was cultivation or martial arts, he had a great advantage over ordinary people, so he set a goal for himself, and completely mastered the method of breathing and breathing within half a year!
Failed again and again, tried again and again, I have to say that this method of breathing and absorbing one long and five short is extremely difficult, but its effect is also excellent, although Yu Qingwu has not succeeded, but he only feels that there is a feeling of lightness and fluttering all over his body, as if the turbidity in the body has been exhausted, and the five internal organs have been completely baptized.
Although the two cultivation methods of Dao and Martial Arts are both good for the body, their respective methods are different, Martial Cultivation is to strengthen the muscles, bones, flesh, and intestines of the whole body with their own true qi, while Dao Cultivation is to use mana or breathing and breathing to cleanse the whole body with the aura of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, and derank the useless waste gas and waste blood in the body. If the former is strong, then the latter is soft, each with its own gains and losses, and each has its own merits.
Time slipped away slowly in Yu Qingwu's practice of breathing and breathing, and it was nearly noon, and the little beast that gnawed bones like a dog seemed to be full and no longer gnawed bones. It took small steps and walked leisurely in this huge stone chamber, as if the Emperor of Heaven was inspecting the palace...... To be more precise, it should be like inspecting the imperial kitchen, after all, the entire stone chamber, except for Yu Qingwu, is its food!
After turning around, the little beast fell on Yu Qingwu, and his black eyes rolled, obviously remembering the delicacy of the black pill just now, and immediately spread his feet and ran towards Yu Qingwu. When it reached Yu Qingwu's side, the little beast scratched its ears and cheeks, and finally locked its eyes on Yu Qingwu's chest. It grinned, reached out its claws and reached out to Yu Qingwu's chest.
Just as his claws were only three inches away from Yu Qingwu, the little beast stopped. It withdrew its claws and looked down at the Nine Spirits Great Wonderful Sutra spread out on the ground in front of Yu Qingwu, its eyes full of curiosity. It turned left and right, and then simply opened its mouth to bite the corner of the hide, dragging it aside to continue its 'study'.
After a while, the little beast showed a sudden look, only to see that it also learned the posture of Yu Qingwu, sitting cross-legged, with its claws round and placed on its legs, and at the same time looking at the Nine Spirits Sutra spread on the ground with one eye open, and one eye closed tightly, not to mention how weird and funny it looked.
One man and one beast breathed and breathed between the countless beast bones, and gradually, some light spots that were difficult to see with the naked eye oozed from those beast bones, floating in the air, slowly heading towards one man and one beast, and then entering their bodies with the breath of one man and one beast.
The one man and one beast who were immersed in cultivation didn't feel much emotion, but they just felt that their minds were clear, so they attributed this situation to the progress of the method of breathing. In fact, how did they know that there were hundreds of dry bones in this stone room, and after the death of these demon beasts, the power of the soul could not be dispersed in the stone room all year round, and over time the dry bones were attached. At this time, they practiced the method of breathing and breathing in this stone room, and these soul powers found an outlet for catharsis, and they were naturally inhaled into their bodies to increase their soul power.
If this place is suitable for plant growth, I am afraid that it will already be covered with Ming Soul Grass, but unfortunately there are hard stone walls all around here, and ordinary plants cannot take root at all. At this time, Yu Qingwu and the little beast are completely in a place full of soul power, every time they breathe, their soul power will be stronger, and after a long time, just when they set foot on the realm of refining and refining qi, they will cultivate the realm of refining and refining qi to perfection in a short period of time! Even when they reach the realm of refining qi and transforming gods, it is much easier for their souls to transform into primordial gods than ordinary people!
It was dark and dawning, and at the end of the next day, Yu Qingwu, who had been practicing for a long day and a night, finally woke up with the hunger in his chest and abdomen, and was about to take out the Bigu Dan to eat, when he suddenly saw that the little beast named 'Xiaohong' by himself was actually cultivating in a funny posture not far away, and the Nine Spirits Great Wonderful Sutra that was originally in front of him appeared in front of him at some point!
"Aren't all demon beasts absorbing the essence of the sun and moon to cultivate, how can Xiaohong still understand the Nine Spirits Great Sutra?" Yu Qingwu muttered to himself, and then suddenly realized. The Nine Spirits Great Sutra was created by the Queen Mother of the West, and those scriptures are not human characters, but a specific symbol, no one knows them, but at a glance, they can know what the Tao means! The little beast naturally can't recognize those symbols, but it can also understand the meaning expressed by these symbols, and naturally can cultivate according to the above method.
As for why the demon beast was able to cultivate the Nine Spirits Great Sutra, this is also very easy to explain. The Queen Mother of the West is not a human being, but a congenital deity, and to put it bluntly, she is also a demon! It's just that at the beginning of the opening of heaven and earth, all kinds of living beings are only divided into demons and witches, and humans are also a kind of demons, so the Nine Spirits Sutra created by the Queen Mother of the West should not be specially created for the human race.
Thinking of this, Yu Qingwu smiled and said to himself: "I don't know if Lu Dao Xiaohong will incarnate into a human at some point in the future after cultivating the Nine Spirits Great Wonderful Sutra......
Among the ten thousand kinds of creatures in the heavens and the earth, people are the most in line with the trend of the Heavenly Dao, and their cultivation also has unique advantages, so once the demon beasts have enough cultivation, they will all turn into human bodies to assist in cultivation. However, the more talented the demon beast, the more difficult it is to transform into a human form, and even some demon beasts, no matter how high their cultivation is or how much magical power they can have, they cannot transform into a human form, such as Kunpeng!
Shaking his head and smiling, Yu Qingwu took out the jade bottle from his arms, poured out a Bigu Dan and put it in his mouth. The elixir melted in his mouth, and the stomach that was originally rumbling stopped screaming in an instant, and his hunger disappeared without a trace at this moment.
At this time, the little red nose, which was sitting cross-legged in a funny posture, trembled, and then it opened its eyes, and when it saw the jade bottle in Yu Qingwu's hand, its eyes lit up, and it rushed over with a whimper.
Yu Qingwu flipped back with his left hand holding the jade bottle, Xiaohong immediately pounced, and when he wanted to pounce again, Yu Qingwu raised his hand to stop it, and said: "I don't have much Bigu Dan, I still have to use it to cultivate, but I can't let you eat it as a jelly bean!" Although he said this, he still poured out a Bigu Pill from the jade bottle in his hand, sent it to Xiaohong, and said: "There is only one, don't take it as an example!"
"Woohoo!"
Who would have thought that Xiaohong would shake her head and scream, then stretched out her claws and pointed at the jade bottle, and spread her claws again.
