Immortality is above

Chapter 10 10: The Way of Cultivation

"Where did the money come from?"

Chen Yang was shocked. She had never seen such a large ingot of silver.

Chen Liushan chuckled: "The third child gave it to me. He said that a man can't be without money, so he gave it to me."

Chen Yang said nervously: "Isn't this something that came from a shady background, like killing people and stealing goods? You should return it to him quickly."

Chen Liushan: "...What are you talking about? The third child has read the books of sages and has a reputation as a scholar. How can he do evil?"

Hearing this, Chen Yang felt that there was some truth in it.

Chen Liushan added: "The third child has learned martial arts and can also do medicine. He is very capable. Look at my legs."

He lifted the quilt covering himself.

At this time, Chen Yang was really excited.

Compared with curing my husband's lameness, that ingot of silver is nothing at all: "It seems that I wrongly blamed my brother-in-law..."

He ran out quickly, but Chen Liubai had already left the house at this time, saying that he was visiting friends and might not come back tonight.

In fact, Chen Liubai did not go to visit friends, but went straight out of the village. As I walked through the streets of the village, I attracted a lot of attention and pointed fingers.

No way, his life story is really "discussable".

From a family prodigy to a down-and-out knight, it arouses people's doubts, surprise, sighs, and sympathy.

Of course there is some yin and yang indispensable.

But Chen Liubai didn't care about these opinions at all. He went outside the village, walked through the streets, and ran directly to the mountain while there was no one around.

Chenjiaji is built near mountains and rivers, with the Benma River rolling and mountains all around.

He only chose remote and uninhabited places, and finally chose a steep and hidden cave near a mountain stream. After cleaning it for a while, he set up firewood and started making soup.

What is cooked is tiger bone broth.

It's not an ordinary tiger bone, but the bone of a tiger demon.

The vitality and blood contained in this kind of flesh and blood is astonishing, and ordinary people are not blessed to be able to bear it. Like Chen Liushan, if he comes to eat, even if he only eats a small piece, his nose will bleed and he will have a headache.

This is not a supplement, but a harm.

So Chen Liubai could only run to the mountain alone to open a small stove.

After two or three days from Maoxian County to Chenjiaji, he was really hungry. Even if the food he eats is a little greasy, it won't help.

In addition, studying the remaining scrolls of the Heavenly Book consumes even more mental energy.

After spending a lot of money and not eating well, the man looked haggard and downcast, like a sick man.

No wonder others looked at him and had nothing to say.

Fortunately, I finally found an opportunity to take a good supplement.

There are two fundamental methods of cultivation in the world, one is "visualization and induction" and the other is "acquisition and refining of Qi". The two are not separate and independent, but are combined together to form a two-pronged approach.

The meaning of "taking clothes" is to eat.

As for the scope of the concept of diet, it is very large, all-encompassing, multifarious, with different stages and different emphasis.

Generally speaking, it is mainly divided into three levels: meat food, refined food, and blood food. The next level is "qi refining."

Therefore, it is said: Those who eat Qi will have gods and longevity.

That's when you officially step into the path of immortality.

Chen Liubai has not reached that level. His current cultivation is stuck in the early stage of "refining Qi and transforming into a god", and he has never been able to open up the last few meridians and shape him into a Yin god.

The four major realms of cultivation are: refining essence to transform into qi, refining qi to transform into spirit, refining spirit to return to emptiness, and refining emptiness to combine with Tao.

The first level of "Refining Qi", to put it bluntly, is to absorb the essence through eating a lot, and then condense and polish the Qi and blood throughout the body.

Like the tiger and wolf demons entrenched in Maoxian County, they basically belong to this stage, so they feed on humans.

Chen Liubai has entered the second stage of "Refining Qi and Transforming into God". He needs to train all the Qi and blood in his body into Yuan Qi, open up the meridians of the whole body, and finally gather them in the Upper Dantian Niwan Palace to shape the Yin Shen.

So far in his practice, he only has the Shaoyang, Jueyin, and the last part of the Rendu meridians that have not been opened. They are basically concentrated on the head, so he cannot successfully "transform into the spirit". Chen Liubai felt that his Qi and blood were not strong enough to be refined, so he had to continue to "refine Qi".

In a word: "delicious to eat and drink".

Three levels of normal eating: "Meat eating" means eating meat every day and enjoying anything.

This meat refers to birds and animals, including domesticated ones.

"Fine food" means eating carefully, never getting tired of fine food, never getting tired of fine cooking, and only choosing the best parts to eat.

For example, if you eat beef and sheep, you only eat the upper tenderloin, etc.

The last "blood food" is very particular. The meat of ferocious birds and beasts does not count, but refers to strange beasts and monsters.

For example, the tiger bone soup that Chen Liubai is currently cooking is a type of "blood food".

To cook blood food, you should not use ordinary cooking utensils, but special ones.

What he placed on the firewood was a three-legged copper tripod.

There is a lid on the tripod that fits tightly to prevent the fragrance from escaping.

There is no special ground fire, you can only use ordinary firewood and cook it slowly. Add oil, salt, seasonings, etc. into the tripod to enhance the flavor.

These things are usually stored in Hutian bags and can be taken out at any time, which is very convenient.

This bag of his is like a treasure bag.

While waiting, I came to the entrance of the cave and looked around.

This mountain is vast, deserted and full of ferocious beasts. If tiger monster meat is not available, he will hunt and eat game.

But with blood food, game is out of sight.

After observing for a while, as night fell, Chen Liubai took out his iron sword, went outside, and drew a circle on the ground.

The sword mark is stained with aura, which can effectively deter the intrusion of wild beasts.

This swordsmanship is his greatest skill at the moment, and it has a name called "Pure Yang Sword Technique".

When he was on the mountain, Chen Liubai didn't learn any Taoism because he didn't become a god, so he majored in swordsmanship.

However, now that I have obtained the fragments of the Heavenly Book that contain the laws of the Five Elements, I can master some of the techniques related to the Five Elements with in-depth study without a teacher.

But we are faced with a thorny problem: once the fragments of the Heavenly Book are activated, the charm of the great avenue will be released. If the movement is too great, it may cause big trouble.

Therefore, you need to be extra careful during your daily practice.

Cross the circle, go back to the cave, close your eyes and rest.

Time passed quickly, and after a few hours, the hungry Chen Liubai couldn't hold it any longer, opened the bronze tripod, and began to eat meat.

In fact, the stewing heat is not enough, but it doesn't matter, as long as it is cooked.

So fragrant!

It wasn't the first time he had eaten blood food, but it wasn't too much. When he used to eat it, he would eat it by the pound. How could he eat it freely like now?

However, among blood and food, there are also different levels. Low-level tiger monsters like this are just average.

But if you have something to eat, you will be satisfied and cannot ask for more.

Yesterday at the Maoxian county government office, if we had not been able to bring so many, the wolf meat would have been cut away.

Half an hour later, the full pot of meat and soup was eaten and drank. Chen Liubai was satisfied, packed up his things, and began to close his eyes and rest, move the energy and blood throughout his body, and wander through the various meridians that had been opened, as if The stream flows through the river bed.

This luck came to the next morning.

After leaving the cave and washing his face by the mountain stream, and having a full meal, his mental outlook improved significantly.

It's just that the paleness on his face is a manifestation of the old wounds left by his failed attempt, which will be difficult to heal in a short period of time.

As for blood food, it does not mean that the more you eat, the better. People are like containers. Different people have different amounts. Excess is still not enough.

So I went back home, and there were still a lot of things waiting to be done.

　There are two chapters every day in the new book issue, which is the mainstream. I also take the opportunity to see if I can save more manuscripts. The flow is steady and there is no rush or impatience!
