Chapter 60 The Monk

"I have already taught you the cultivation method of the primordial spirit. After so long, you still haven't understood the power of the primordial spirit to control objects. Do you have to be taught by others to do so? When did you become so rigid?" - Mo Shangtong

"Don't say no one taught you, I have already done a demonstration myself. Didn't you see how the noodles flew from the other day? ... What? It was said by my old man, you are still far behind. I didn't say this. What's wrong, you are still far behind, but it depends on who you are comparing with..." - Yang Tehong

This is the scolding that Huazhenxing received that night after recounting what happened during the day.It was Confucius Ke's good-natured temper, which interrupted Old Man Yang's lectures and explained—

"In the situation you encountered today, someone should have used the power of water control. The power of the primordial spirit to control objects is the easiest to master, but it is also the most difficult to master. Water has no shape and can be broken down at will. It is very slight, so it consumes very little energy. . But for the same reason, it takes a long time to repeatedly try how to control it, and it is difficult to decompose it to the subtleties..."

After listening for a long time, Hua Zhenxing finally understood what Ke Mengchao was talking about.The way he mastered the refining method of the Yuanshen seemed to be more "high-end" than the so-called Yuanshen's mastery of objects.Hua Zhenxing finally asked: "Master, you have said so much, but I still don't know how to control the Yuanshen."

Ke Mengchao: "You can try it yourself, gold, wood, water and soil can be used. Be aware of the danger. Don't play with fire before you reach the four realms, or you will accidentally set the house on fire, or you will burn yourself to death. You met today. Cultivator, Lao Yang taught you to practice over the years, but he didn’t tell you too many things, he just wanted to go with the flow… But there are some situations that you should know now.”

Yang Tehong said dissatisfiedly: "I think Xiaohua is still young and has not practiced his kung fu at home. Besides, this place is also remote, so I don't bother to tell him so much. According to the old rules, when he is a teacher in the four realms, his Yuan Yang technique When I reach the fourth level of cultivation, I will naturally tell him these things. I didn’t expect his level to be at home, and he has already gone out and waved…”

Master Ke: "It doesn't matter if Xiaohua can't go out and do things, it doesn't matter whether he cultivates or not, but since he has met other monks, he should make it clear."

Mo Shangtong: "Xiaohua met Teacher Ding last time, and Teacher Ding didn't say anything."

Master Ke: "Mr. Ding is not an outsider, but he is not very serious."

Yang Tehong: "Don't talk about Mr. Ding, Xiaohua is taught by me, let me tell him..."

The leader of the Golden Gang is called Boris, and the identity of this person is not difficult to check.Boris also has two deputies named Kelly and Peng Kang, which are equivalent to the so-called deputy gang leaders.Among them, Kelly is his mistress, and Peng Kang is the manager of Jin Dianxing whom Shire met during the day.But very few people know that the Golden Gang is not actually created by them, there are other people behind the scenes.

There was a man named Locke who founded the Golden Gang, but he didn't show up and just pushed Boris to the front.The actual controller of the Golden Gang, Locke, is very low-key. His usual identity is that of an "appraiser" hired by the Golden Dianxing.

As for how capable he is and what secret techniques he has learned, Old Man Yang did not say.Listening to what he meant, it should be for Hua Zhenxing to handle it himself.Hua Zhenxing could infer from his tone that this person should not be as good as himself, otherwise old man Yang would not be so big-hearted.

The identity of the expert who could manipulate moisture that Hua Zhenxing met later could be easily guessed, and he should be the "Poseidon" of the Poseidon Gang.The site of the Poseidon Gang is close to the International Wharf, and its main members include many porters on the wharf.The International Terminal needs to hire stevedores, there is no guild here, and the Sea God Gang is similar to this role in a sense.

Whenever a ship docks, it is often the Poseidon Gang that operates behind the scenes.In fact, there are also people working in the international terminal, but they are all high-end types of work, such as operating cranes, mechanical repair and maintenance, which are not available to professionals.

The gang members of the Sea God Gang call their leader Sea God, and the identity of the Sea God is very mysterious, and outsiders have never seen it at all, and even the inside of the Sea God Gang is only known to the core high-level officials.It is said that the Sea God masters magical sorcery and protects the members of the Sea God Gang. There are even exaggerated legends that Sea God is the god of the sea and holds the power of the sea.

After a long time, some people even think that the Sea God Gang is a gang that believes in the Sea God, so they call themselves the leader of the Sea God.Many of the local people really believe in these god-given claims!The people here have not received systematic atheism education since childhood, not even modern education. They believe in everything, and some tribes still practice witchcraft.

Old man Yang once told Xia Er that "business" matters can be handed over to a few assistants. If there is something that can't be settled, or the assistants can't make up their minds, they can ask Xiaohua to discuss it.Xia Er had heard about the Sea God and was also scared, so he approached Hua Zhenxing to discuss, if he would deal with the Sea God Gang in the future, he would ask him to help deal with the Sea God

As far as Old Man Yang knew, there was indeed a Sea God in the Sea God Gang. The so-called witchcraft was actually a magical technique, and his people should be good at controlling water.It is difficult to judge how profound the skill is. It is possible that it is a skill that specializes in research and expertise. It can control the tiny water mist in the air, which can be regarded as extremely subtle.

What does he control the mist for?It should be for observation, as long as the water mist drifts by, he can sense all the movements in the dark.In terms of realm alone, this person is at least similar to Hua Zhenxing.Kefuzi once said to Hua Zhenxing that he was not the only lucky one, and it was confirmed so quickly.

With the help of Huanxiang Industry, Xia Er led the new alliance and has now swept the surrounding neighborhoods. In the planned site of Kelin District, there are only two hardest bones left, namely the Golden Gang and the Sea God Gang. .Unexpectedly, these two hard bones have experts behind the scenes, at least not ordinary people.

Old man Yang must have known more details, but he didn't say anything about it, he just analyzed it based on what Huazhenxing saw.After introducing these situations, Yang Tehong asked with a smile, "Xiaohua, what do you think?"

Hua Zhenxing: "Low, it's too Low!"

Yang Tehong smiled angrily: "They are much stronger than Jin Datou."

Hua Zhenxing: "Compared with Jin Datou, what's the prospect?"

Yang Tehong: "The inspector of the Golden Gang, I heard that he is from Lanxi, and he may have other secrets when he came here. This person is considered smart, the so-called Golden Gang is just a place to live. As for the situation of the sea god, you Find out for yourself. We won’t talk about Low or Low, but with such a special ability, what can you do, transform society or benefit mankind?”

Mo Shangtong interjected: "Locke is protecting himself, and Shenhai is supposed to protect a group of people. It's a bit embarrassing for them to be able to do this now."

What did Hua Zhen do to think that the two were Low, because in his opinion, they possessed abilities that ordinary people do not have, and could have done more things, had greater rewards and greater ideals.In the end, those two guys were better, they were just being the gang leader all these years, not much better than Jin Datou.

Ke Mengchao sighed: "Xiaohua, you are saving others by yourself. They are not you, and they are not as lucky as you, let alone we have been teaching you. They may order something, but they may not understand. what happend!"

Hua Zhenxing: "What the hell is going on? I have only learned the art of nourishing the soul, and no one has told me anything else. Apart from you, I have also contacted Teacher Ding. You said that there are people with such skills , is it a peer, or is it a special group of the same type?"

Yang Tehong: "I was about to say this, but they interrupted again..."

No matter in Hua Zhenxing's dream, how compulsory education will be carried out 500 years later, but the Yangyuan technique taught by old man Yang is now a secret method, which aims to break through the physical and mental realm.

When the body and mind reach a certain state, they will naturally have some abilities that they did not have before. On this basis, supplemented by special exercises, they can also have more abilities or skills.This kind of ability or skill that ordinary people do not possess is also called supernatural power in the traditional context of the Eastern Kingdom.

The supernatural power may be innate, and this situation will not be discussed.People like Hua Zhenxing have been called monks in Dongguo since ancient times. If there are similar people in other parts of the world, they are also called monks in the Dongguo context, no matter how they call themselves.

A cultivator can be simply understood as a person who cultivates. Cultivation requires secret techniques. For example, Hua Zhenxing's nurturing technique is the foundation.The art of nourishing the essence itself is not a supernatural power, but the shaping of the body, the refining of spiritual consciousness, the induction of the primordial spirit... and even bare-handed alchemy, flying noodle art, etc. based on its corresponding realm are supernatural powers.

In Hua Zhenxing's dream, the Yang Yuan technique was divided into nine levels, which was actually what Old Man Yang told him in reality, which represented nine levels of achievement.Different secret methods have different names for different realms. In the ancient times of Dongguo, the simple name was one to nine realms. Huazhenxing is now a three-level monk.

The boss behind the scenes of the Golden Gang may have just reached the third realm, while the Seagod of the Sea God Gang should be at least in the third realm.The three realms are different from the three realms, depending on what kind of secret techniques they practice, and which methods they are good at or prefer.The sea god is obviously good at manipulating water. If you change the cultural context, he may be called a water-specialized magician.

Old man Yang had never talked about sects before, but Hua Zhenxing later met Ding Qi, and the secret method that Teacher Ding practiced was obviously a different way.But Ding Qi admired Hua Zhenxing's cultivation of Yuanyuan, and was also very interested in his dreams.

It is said that the unique secret method is the secret of every sect, but old man Yang has never told Huazhenxing about this before, so Huazhenxing has no such concept at all, and he also plans to promote Yuan Yangshu to the whole society.

So what kind of secret method is the Yang Yuan technique?Nothing!Which direction is it biased towards?There is no direction!No need to believe in any religion, no need to worship any god, no need to join any organization, and no need to obey any discipline.It's just that the art of nourishing the essence itself also has various particulars, which are called precautions when practicing.

Yuan Yangshu cultivates one's own physical and mental realm. Even if Hua Zhenxing can't control water like the sea god, but from his point of view, he also feels that the sea god seems to have gone a bit wrong.

Poseidon may be particularly good at manipulating water, and can even use Primordial Spirit to condense moisture in the air to sense things outside of him.But isn't it enough to sense it directly with divine sense? Do you have to use water as your eyes?After Hua Zhenxing noticed that he had confused Yuanshen induction with ordinary facial features, he immediately paid attention to the distinction, and this one was going further and further on the road of confusion.

Of course, meeting such a person is also considered to gain knowledge, otherwise Huazhenhang would not know that water can play like that, and the three old men did not teach him.That being the case, the sea god can control and control water, and there must be other ways to play, so be careful when you encounter it.

Thinking of this, Hua Zhenxing asked again: "It turns out that there are really sects, I thought those novels were all made up. I have read a lot of martial arts and immortal novels, there are decent and evil sects, there are Xuanmen authentic, and there are many novels. There are demons here and there... are these all true?"

He originally wanted to make a joke, but the old man Yang nodded seriously and said, "It's true, there are evil ways and there are magic ways."

Hua Zhenxing: "How to tell the difference?"

Yang Tehong: "Look at people's actions, but also at the way of cultivating the law. For example, the technique of nourishing the essence is mainly based on the inner vitality. If someone steals the vitality of others to cultivate, it is a demon, and the cultivation is evil. If you If you do the same, then you are a demon, and if we meet, you will be eradicated without a word."

Hua Zhenxing: "How can I know, you have never taught me..." Before he could finish his sentence, Old Man Yang slapped him with a slap.He cooperated very well, and turned his head along the way of the slap.

Kefuzi: "Don't play with the children, be serious."

Yang Tehong: "I originally planned to wait until Xiaohua left the apprenticeship, and then let's talk about Sanxingjie. Usually, there are no nosy people in this place, and Xiaohua is not the kind of person who can break the precept..."
