Taoist Master of Fantasy World

Chapter 75: Self-refinement
After Zhao Weiting left, the four teams entered their respective scroll circles one after another.

After Xu Zhenyun, Xiang Tianwen, and Mu Xueqing sat down on the grass, Ji Xiaohua began to explain:
"The second stage of practice at the eighth level of breaking through the realm is a relatively easy level."

"In the first stage of 'Qi Filling Spiritual Acupoints', your spiritual acupoints were successfully stimulated and became the hub intermediaries for their respective 'vacuum power' and 'star power' to refine the physical body and soul..."

"Star power?"

Xu Zhenyun keenly captured this vocabulary.

The "blue bars" of the ten types of monks can be collectively called "mana"; but specifically, each has its own name.

For example, martial arts practitioners develop "vacuum power" within their Dantian.

Xiang Tianwen is also a martial arts practitioner; so "star power" refers to Mu Xueqing.

The "celestial star flow" differentiated from the "natural flow"?No wonder her previous practice seemed to be meditating and looking at the stars...

Xu Zhenyun immediately recalled some details.

Ji Xiaohua continued to explain: "The 'spiritual acupoints' you each opened are drawing the power from your dantian all the time. When the 'vacuum power' and 'star power' filling levels in your dantian are reduced to less than [-]%, this The drawing will cease.”

"This situation is not allowed to happen. Once the spiritual point is opened, it absorbs its own power and feeds back to nourish the body and soul to form a cycle that should never end."

Xu Zhenyun immediately looked inside and felt that the "vacuum power" in his Dantian had indeed been consumed a bit, but there was still [-]% excess.Calculated, if you stop practicing, you will be squeezed below the [-]% red line in about seven to eight days.

Ji Xiaohua was wearing a white robe and a scholar's crown today, so she wouldn't even notice it from outside.But now he is giving lectures on the floor, and his temperament is very "lecturer", which is very different from before.

Ji Xiaohua continued: "The second level is called 'Xingzhi Self-Refinement', which means that you are in 'cultivation' anytime and anywhere. No matter whether you eat, drink, or sleep, you cannot break away from this 'cultivation' state."

"To reach this point is to free 'cultivation' from boring tasks. It lays the foundation for the third and final step."

"Now you take out your respective skills and try to practice them."

Xu Zhenyun followed his instructions and took out the "simple book" of "Seven Refining Xuan Zhen Gong" and "flicked through" it to the end. Sure enough, he found that there was new content at the end of the original "book".

The same goes for Xiang Tianwen and Mu Xueqing.

While the three of them were watching the exercises, Ji Xiaohua stretched out her hand and waved.There was a sudden "clatter" sound on the carpet in front of me, and at least hundreds of bamboo slips appeared, piled up into a hill.

Xu Zhenyun read the Taoist techniques and was slightly surprised. After trying the techniques described in the slips, he was even more stunned.

Xu Zhenyun raised his head and said: "Teacher..."

Ji Xiaohua smiled and said, "Do you think it's easy?"

Xu Zhenyun nodded and said: "Exactly."

It turns out that most of the extra "second stage" exercises are general introductions, and there is only a "Little Mind-Shou Jue" of more than 300 words in terms of specific cultivation methods.

Not only does this method have very few words, but it is also very easy to practice. As long as you properly compress the "vacuum force" in the Dantian, rotate it in a specific order and speed, and then slowly disconnect your divine will, you will enter the "walking and stopping" state. Self-refining" state.

It is much easier than the first seven days of accumulating vacuum power and impacting the spiritual acupoint!
Ji Xiaohua said: "Stand up and take two steps."

Xu Zhenyun stood up as instructed and took two steps forward.I immediately discovered that the "self-cultivation" could no longer be maintained; my own cultivation state had been cut off.

Ji Xiaohua explained: "The training in the second level is not very difficult. It is completely a grinding effort. Practice makes perfect. Constantly familiar with and strengthen this state. But different from the first level, this level can be half distracted. "

"Half distracted?"

Xu Zhenyun seems to have realized something.

Ji Xiaohua said: "Aren't you the best example?"

"When you sit still, you can easily reach the state of 'walking, stopping and self-cultivation'. At this time, you can completely take your attention away from 'cultivation' and turn your head to do other things."

"So, this level can be a distraction."

"But if you get up and move around, this state of 'walking, stopping and self-refining' cannot be maintained. So, you can only be half distracted."

"In the preaching system of our Great Jin Immortal Dynasty, the 49th day of Dharma and the second level of 'self-refinement of practice' are very important. Its value does not lie in itself, but in this feature that can distract other people. It’s just in time to solidify the foundation for new disciples.”

Ji Xiaohua moved her chin forward and pointed at the slip in front of her.

"Cultivation itself is not difficult; can you do two things at once and use this time as a cultural class?"

This was something Xu Zhenyun didn't expect.

Xiang Tianwen looked at the mountains of jade slips in front of him, frowned slightly, and couldn't help but lean back.

Seeing this, Ji Xiaohua casually waved her hands and said with a faint smile: "Don't be nervous. It's not some difficult Taoism. It's just some common sense, regulations, systems, customs and customs of the monastic world and the Jin Dynasty; and even some strange novels , quite interesting.”

"Just pick what you like to watch."

"In addition, it's not just about reading scriptures. If you have any insights or questions in practice, you can come to me. You and I, teacher and student, communicate frankly." Although Xiang Tianwen and Mu Xueqing nodded, they were both First choose the jade slips in front of Ji Xiaohua to see if there are any more interesting novels.

Xu Zhenyun sat down again, returning his Dantian to the state of "walking, stopping and self-refining", and immediately said: "Teacher, I have a question."

Ji Xiaohua's eyes lit up, and her voice was brisk: "Say."

This is not the first time that he has served as the teacher of a ninth-grade disciple.According to experience, at the stage of "self-practicing", students often practice while "reading" on their own, and very few communicate with the teacher.

After all, there is a big gap in cultivation between the two sides, which can be regarded as a "generation gap" to a certain extent. Most people choose to complete their accumulation silently, rather than showing their timidity in front of others.

So he brought enough "Yijian Shu" to feed three people.

Unexpectedly, Xu Zhenyun did not choose the jade slips first, but chose to communicate with him.

The number one genius disciple was Ji Xiaohua who was "specially recommended" to join the Taoism. It was indeed extraordinary!

Xu Zhenyun used his backhand to pull out the iron bar that was almost lying on his shoulder, and said: "My father-in-law made this for me."

After sitting down, Xu Zhenyun felt clearly that his Dantian did not move, he just moved his arms, which did not hinder the state of "self-refinement".

Ji Xiaohua glanced at the iron rod, and her eyes suddenly condensed: "It is really rare for ordinary things to be able to develop such pure qualities..."

"Are you going to use it as your bonded weapon?"

Xu Zhenyun nodded and said: "Exactly."

After successfully opening the topic, Xu Zhenyun took advantage of the situation and said: "My father-in-law comes from a family of blacksmiths, so he also learned some principles about the 'Tie Object Method' and the 'Bound Weapon'. But there is one point in it that is difficult to understand."

Ji Xiaohua said: "You say."

Xu Zhenyun said: "Is the process of achieving the 'Thing of Things' achieved by cultivating true power since childhood? Is there any special secret that is not passed down?"

Ji Xiaohua was startled and said: "What special method do you want? Why do you have such an idea?"

Xu Zhenyun calmly observed Ji Xiaohua's expression and said slowly: "There are originally clear boundaries between immortals and mortals. At the beginning of cultivation and refining, this system of physical objects is all mortal objects. As it is cultivated by itself, it can really leap like a fish. Dragon Gate has become an existence that even treasures forged with top spiritual materials cannot reach?"

"If this method can be achieved, wouldn't it be equivalent to a special kind of 'alchemy' that breaks the boundary between ordinary and extraordinary through its own cultivation?"

Ji Xiaohua laughed and said, "You have such an amazing talent in the practice of worldly skills, why can't you understand such a simple truth?"

"Of all things in the world, human beings are the most precious. One person, one thing, one thing. They are together, and their emotions are in harmony. The long-term cultivation is not only the nourishment of magic power, but also the reflection of human nature and spirituality for a long time."

"It's the sustenance of 'meaning' that makes it reborn."

"As for using this method to refine ordinary things into extraordinary things, that's a fool's dream. Once you have a utilitarian heart, your 'intention' is no longer pure, and the method of attaching things will not be possible."

There is no special secret, it is really just the long-term cultivation of true power, and the sustenance of a mysterious and mysterious "intention"...

Xu Zhenyun frowned slightly, but said: "Disciple understands."

Ji Xiaohua was very satisfied. She took a piece of writing at random and turned it into a book. The first line of text seemed to be "Huangmao Daxian's Journey to the East" and she read it with relish.

Of course Xu Zhenyun was not satisfied with Ji Xiaohua's answer.

Although Ji Xiaohua didn't make as much fuss as last time, her attitude undoubtedly showed that ordinary things can achieve or even surpass the extraordinary through the cultivation of the Object Attachment Method. This is a "consensus" that is not surprising at all in this world.

After experiencing the astonishing discovery he just made on Zhao Huiting, Xu Zhenyun became more and more convinced——

It’s not that I am short-sighted or have a fixed mindset.This world of Xinyuan Main Continent really has weird things that I can't understand; it's even unbelievable and terrifying!
The only thing that I can rely on to gradually deepen my understanding of the world is the "Tao Xin Chessboard".

Xu Zhenyun glanced at Mu Xueqing.

It’s time to conquer the Great Aries!

"Find a reason to fist bump with her."

"Like Xiang Tianwen, make a 'bet'..."

Xu Zhenyun holds the jade slip in his hand, seemingly studying hard; but in fact, his mind is wandering.

Less than half an hour passed, and I had devised seventeen or eight plans in my mind, but none of them were reliable.

It's really hard to find a suitable excuse to fist bump with a girl...

"No! The hardware conditions are all in place. Isn't it ridiculous to be stuck on the so-called 'appropriate reasons'... Don't be a giant in thought and a dwarf in action!"

"Isn't it just a fist bump? What do you want to do for such a useless thing?"

As this thought flashed across his mind, Xu Zhenyun felt his thoughts clear and his energy lifted. He stood up suddenly and walked towards Mu Xueqing!
