Chapter 9: Deep-rooted Ningji, inner sage and outer king
It is strange to say that the Yinji Leopard Bone Fist and the Thunderous Tiger Membrane Technique seem to be imprinted in my mind.
It's like there is a little person making gestures constantly, and Xiao Zhou Qi just imitates and practices.
It was only the first day of practicing, and I had just played Yinji Leopard Bone Fist once, and I felt hot and sweating all over my body. It was obviously the middle of winter, but I didn't feel cold at all, which was amazing.
In fact, the climate here is different, although he has also entered Tianwaitian and even the Piaomiao Sect.
But strictly speaking, the back mountain where he is located is actually considered to be on the edge of the Piaomiao Sect, almost equivalent to being outside the sect.
Therefore, there is no special aura protection here, but you can still feel the changes of the four seasons.
It's just that this set of boxing techniques was so exciting that it made Xiao Zhou Qi feel extremely comfortable.
"Senior Immortal is really extraordinary. I can even feel that my bones have become stronger. Although it is only the first day of practice, it seems to be comparable to the crop work I have done for several years."
Zhou Qi felt very excited, and every bit of progress made him feel closer to entering Genting.
Unknowingly, it was already midnight, so he hurriedly washed up and prepared to rest.
There was nothing to say all night, and the sun had just risen the next day when Zhou Qi naturally opened his eyes and got up.
I don’t feel as tired as yesterday at all and I feel refreshed.
"Now I have a total of fifty Hongdao coins, which are given by every entry-level disciple for daily use. Senior sister Tantai gave me two hundred coins, but I don't plan to use them. I will return them to her intact when the time comes. .Senior Shangxian gave me a prescription. Drinking it on weekdays can improve Qi and blood, and it will cost about ten Hongdao coins..."
Zhou Qi sat on the desk and began to calculate the next expenses.
"In this case, I still have forty pieces, but I need to buy the ingredients and seeds for raising spiritual birds on weekdays, so I'd better take out thirty pieces first. Once the fairy bird rations are grown, you can go to Wanyaotian If you are lucky, you can exchange for Hongdao coins for about 500 coins every month. But I will have to submit 50,000 Hongdao coins for the Huiwu assessment five years later..."
All in all, Zhou Qi felt like he had a headache.
Fifty thousand Hongdao coins is not a small amount. According to the current algorithm, it is simply impossible to complete. We can only think of other ways when the time comes. On average, we have to save 10,000 coins a year, which is simply an astronomical figure.
Zhou Qi couldn't help but envy those disciples who were able to go up the mountain to practice.
As long as they complete some tasks such as going down the mountain to catch ghosts, they can get a lot of Hongdao coins as rewards.
It can range from hundreds to tens of thousands, and there is no limit, especially for some dangerous tasks.
If he can have the opportunity to perform the task, it will undoubtedly greatly shorten the time to accumulate Hong Dao coins.
Just as he was thinking, the stone tablet in the room flickered slightly.
"Yes, today is the fifteenth day of this month. On the fifteenth day of every three months, a sect lecture will be arranged. The elders have previously ordered that this stone tablet is an important communication object between sects, and the elders use it to communicate. To carry out missionary work.”
There is such a stone tablet all over the disciples' rooms of the Piaomiao Sect.
This stone tablet is different from the one in Wuya Palace. It is specially used to preach and receive karma, not to test spiritual roots.
Moreover, things that need to be purchased with Hongdao coins on a daily basis can also be purchased through it.
Among the items given by the elders of Hongdao Hall, there are several special incense sticks like this.
Whenever you need it, you can light it in front of the stone tablet, and you will naturally feel something. You can hand over Hongdao coins to pay.
So seeing the response from the stone tablet, Zhou Qi quickly sat down in front of it.
Piaomiao Peak, inside Langhuan Pavilion.
There is a similar stone tablet here, but it is larger.
An old man with an immortal spirit sat in front of him and asked in a deep voice, "Are all the disciples ready?"
His hands formed a seal, and a young man beside him nodded slightly.
"Reporting to Master Kongji, the preaching monument detected more than 2,000 disciples, including 1,500 new disciples, and a total of 300 peripheral disciples and registered disciples. The spiritual monument has been prepared for a long time, Master, when will we start?
"
Master Kong Ji thought for a moment, then waved his hand, "There are already a lot of people, let's start now."
Coming!
Zhou Qi suddenly pricked up his ears when he heard the voice of Master Kong Ji.
"Most of you are just beginning disciples. They have just awakened their spiritual roots and do not know much about many cultivation methods. Therefore, what I will mainly talk about today is some basic content. Be sure to listen carefully."
"The biggest difference between immortals and humans is not only longevity, but also the ability to hold a breath. This is the foundation of cultivation. Everything in the world has aura. When you advance further in your cultivation, you will be able to feel the hidden energy.
The mystery of."
"And the key to us using our magical powers is to mobilize the energy of heaven and earth and turn it into our own use."
"When you entered the sect, you should have received the "Piaomiao Sutra". This is what I will talk about today. The lecture time is only once every three months, so be sure to understand it carefully."
Master Kong Ji talks eloquently and quotes from other sources from time to time, which is quite fascinating.
Although Zhou Qi doesn't fully understand many of his things, he feels them very seriously.
"The journey of cultivation is long and long, and I will explore it up and down."
"The division of realms described in the Piaomiao Sutra applies to the entire Tianwaitian, and is also the criterion for distinguishing strong and weak cultivation levels."
"The first realm is the deep root realm. This is the first watershed between immortals and humans. Only when you cross this realm can you truly begin to cultivate immortality. The so-called deep root is to obtain the 'deep root tranquility'
'The meaning is to tell us that before we truly achieve enlightenment, we must learn to hide ourselves and not let our edge slip away. In this realm, the most important thing is to refine the body..."
Although Zhou Qi doesn't quite understand the meaning of Shengen Ningji, he does know about body training.
This is exactly the same as what the immortal old man I saw yesterday said, first of all, you must strengthen your body.
Master Kongji continued to talk, "If the entire process of cultivating immortals is an endless sea of clouds, then we need to have a strong physical body to cross the sea of clouds and finally reach the path to immortality..."
Somehow, this made Zhou Qi suddenly think of a word: inner saint and outer king.
In his early years, he went to a private school in a small town for a period of time, and I remember it was an old gentleman who taught me about it.
"The inner saint and the outer king are the highest ideals of self-cultivation and governance. It means that the supreme virtue of a saint is prepared internally, and when applied to the outside, it becomes the governance of a king... This is like practicing cultivation. The inside is to maintain a breath, and the outside is
