Chapter 17 The First Cultivation

The leading senior brother Xie Yunzhong has an opportunity to teach martial arts every seven days. The rest of the time is led by Meng Master Yang Yunsong, including the Iron Arm Fist every morning.

Everyone is just starting out. Except for being from a family of immortal cultivation, most people have never learned the immortal techniques, so the leading senior brother first teaches the basic Qi Refining Skills.

"Take a deep breath and put it into the dantian, which starts from the middle burner, connects the large intestine, circulates the appetite, circulates the upper diaphragm, surrounds the lungs, and goes horizontally out of the armpits..."

Xie Yunzhong recited and explained while explaining, and gestured on himself.

The following fifty new disciples listened with all their attention, fearing that they would miss a little.

Qin Di experienced the baptism of peach blossoms, with clever ears and eyes, and extremely clear mind, ten times faster than ordinary people, so he remembers it in his heart after listening to it.

According to Xie Yunzhong, the basic Qi Refining Art can be cultivated to the fourth level of Qi Refining, and then the exercises will be replaced when entering the middle stage of Qi Refining.

The basic Qi Refining Art has less than a thousand words in total. Xie Yunzhong said it for half an hour before he finished speaking. After explaining it for a while, he ended the first transmission of the Dharma. Finally, he reminded: "There are two key points in practicing this method. One is to absorb the first mouthful of purple qi when the sun rises, use purple qi to warm the meridians and open up the key acupoints. Purple qi belongs to Yang and is best for warming up. Its nature is peaceful and it is open to meridians without damaging the meridians. The second is to absorb the essence of moonlight when the moon is in the middle of the sky. The moon belongs to Yin and can nourish the five internal organs. If the five internal organs are strong, the essence is sufficient. Only when the essence is sufficient can the essence be refined into qi, and then the meridians can be opened. Well, go back and try to practice. If you have any questions, I will talk about it next time, or ask your enlightenment master."

Everyone dispersed.

Qin Di returned to his small wooden house and began to try to practice the basic Qi Refining Art.

Take a deep breath and put it in the dantian, and you feel that the dantian begins to heat up. As the consciousness is activated, a warm current suddenly appears, goes up from the middle burner, passes through the diaphragm, circles around the lungs, and then starts to go outward, encountering the first resistance.

The resistance is not very strong. When the consciousness is slightly activated, the warm current will pass, making a slight "click" sound, and then the second acupoint will pass again with a "click" sound, then the warm current will pass through the armpit and reach the upper arm. After passing the third level, it will exhaust its spiritual power and can no longer move forward.

At this time, he suddenly felt weak and hungry, just like he woke up from a drowsy after eating peaches that day. He was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, and he wanted to eat whatever he saw, even the green trees and grass wanted to take a few bites.

"No, no, I can't stand it anymore!"

Look at the room, it was empty and there was no food.

He had to walk out of the wooden house.

It was dusk, and the sunset was setting, sprinkling golden afterglow.

He ran to the cafeteria first and looked at it, and found that there were only black-fried rice buns and unknown vegetable soup. He didn't bother to ask at the moment, so he quickly ordered more than a dozen steamed buns and seven or eight bowls of vegetable soup. He ate them in one breath, but the feeling of hunger did not ease at all. Then he ordered twenty steamed buns and ate them voraciously. The hunger felt slightly slowed down and he was not so panicked. He sat there and continued to eat until it was completely dark. He didn't know how much he ate. The hunger always existed and could not be gone.

While he was in trouble, enlightenment master Yang Yunsong suddenly appeared opposite the table, without saying anything, and looked at him with a smile.

Qin Di quickly asked, "Master Yang, what's wrong with me?"

Yang Yunsong smiled and said, "You have practiced the basic Qi Refining Art, right? And it's progressing well?"

"Yes, I will open three acupoints in one breath!"

Yang Yunsong was surprised when he heard this: "Have you practiced before?"

Qin Di shook his head: "No, my disciples have an ordinary family background and have no chance to get into the magic tricks of cultivating immortals."

Yang Yunsong praised: "Uncle Zheng said that you have good qualifications and are a rare second-grade wood spirit root. I asked me to take care of you more. I didn't expect that your cultivation talent is so good that you can pass three levels in a row in the first practice! Great!"

"Master Yang, I feel very hungry. What's going on?"

Yang Yunsong smiled: "You are practicing this time because of your own blood and energy. You have not absorbed the purple qi from the rising sun, nor have you swallowed the essence of the moon, so your blood and energy are exhausted. This canteen is free, with only the simplest and rough food that cannot provide you with sufficient spiritual energy, so it is useless to eat more."

"What should I do? I'm still hungry and can't sleep tonight!"

"There are several solutions. One is to stop practicing and absorb the essence of the sun and the moon for three consecutive days, which can be alleviated."

"What else?"

"The second one is to eat the flesh and blood of the monster."

"Where is the flesh and blood of monsters? How can I get it?"

"You have to find a way to do this yourself. Either go to Huangxi Valley to hunt or exchange points for monsters."

Qin Di said: "I just arrived and my points are zero. Please give me advice from Master Yang, where is Huangxi Valley?"

Yang Yunsong shook his head: "Wild Xi Valley is in the south, less than a hundred miles away. But you can't go now. If you want to go there, you must at least open the first meridian and enter the early stage of the Qi Refining Period. If you go now, you will probably not be able to catch the monsters and will be hurt by the monsters!"

Qin Di was a little dazed: "What should I do? Is there any other way?"

"There is another method, which is to practice with a spirit stone in hand. The spirit stone is the essence of heaven and earth, and it preserves a lot of spiritual energy; or rent a low-level practice room and borrow the power of the spiritual veins to quickly replenish the exhausted spiritual power."

"I can't afford to rent a training room if I don't have spirit stones."

Yang Yunsong pondered and said, "There is another strategy. Twenty miles north of this place, there is a Lingxi River, which is a tributary of Tongtian River. If you are lucky enough to catch Lingyu, it can also alleviate your symptoms."

Qin Di had a bitter face: "It's dark now, how can I have time!"

Yang Yunsong smiled and said, "Why would I lend you a spirit stone and I will return it to me when you have it in the future?"

"Then the relationship is good! Thank you Master Yang!" At this time, Qin Di remembered the two spirit stones given by his father, but it was difficult to say them out at this time. Because I just said that my family background was ordinary, what's the matter with suddenly finding the spirit stone?

Yang Yunsong took out a shiny stone from the storage bag, groped for a few times, and said, "Although I am many years older than you and have become your enlightenment master, I am also poor myself, and I am so old that I am almost at the end of my journey, so I cherish every spiritual stone very much. If I have enough spiritual stones, maybe I can work hard and improve my cultivation. How old am I this year?"

"I can't see it."

"I am seventy years old this year. I have just reached the end of the ninth level. I have not entered the peak of Qi refining within the first 60s of the entry school. It is because I have few resources, are too honest and cannot earn enough points, so my cultivation progress is slow. However, I was only ten years old when I started, and my spiritual roots were not too bad, so I was always a little dissatisfied. I did not choose to plant spiritual grass in the dense forest of the West Mountain, but stayed on Chihuo Island to be your enlightenment master. Because there are rich spiritual energy here and there are various resources. If I have good luck and practice hard, I may be able to cultivate to the great perfection of Qi refining two 60s of the time, and return to the Jindan Sect's Immortal Cultivation Sequence, and live for many more years, this life is worth it!"
