On an August day, the heat wave hit the sky, and there was not a cloud in the sky. In the courtyard of Xilu Wutang, on a large locust tree surrounded by four or five people, the cicadas were chirping, seemingly tireless.
In a school, there was total silence. Sitting in the first seat was a beautiful woman. She was dressed in a pure white moon-colored robe, with long black hair hanging casually down her shoulders. Her eyes were as bright as stars and her temperament was cool. Even in this hot summer
In difficult times, you can feel a chill from her body.
She is Leng Qiushui, the mentor of Wu Tang.
At this moment, Leng Qiushui glanced at the more than two hundred students sitting below, lightly opened his red lips, and said slowly: "Meditating, any cultivator must go through this level, otherwise, there is no way to enter the state of emptiness."
Realm, then it is impossible to practice. But meditation is extremely difficult, and not ordinary people can enter it!"
Leng Qiushui said, then glanced at the more than two hundred students sitting below, and said coldly: "That being said, you have been in the martial arts hall for more than two years, but there are very few of you who can truly enter the meditative state. I am quite surprised.
It’s disappointing!”
After saying this, most of the students below lowered their heads silently. Only a few people showed proud expressions and sat upright with their chests puffed out.
Ding Yi is one of those who lowered his head. He has average qualifications and cannot enter the meditative state until now.
Seeing Ding Yi like this, a burly young man next to him comforted him: "Ding Yi, you don't have to be sad. I couldn't enter the meditative state at first, but for some reason, I suddenly entered the meditative state after practicing.
I believe you can do it too.”
Facing the words of his friend Zangli, Ding Yi just forced a smile and said: "Okay, I know you are trying to comfort me. How can meditation be so easy? 'Escape One', 'Escape One', said
How many people can actually do it? Look, among the tens of thousands of people in our entire martial arts hall, only a few have reached the level of 'meditation'?"
"Oh, you are right. I entered the state of 'meditation' in a daze at that time, but if you ask me to tell you the reason, I really can't!" Zangli also sighed with emotion.
In Longwu Continent, martial arts is the most respected.
In the school, the only compulsory course is martial arts training. In martial arts training, one must enter a meditative state of "escaping oneness" before one can feel the spiritual energy between heaven and earth. This is the only way to enter martial arts.
But 'escaping one' is easier said than done. It requires people to abandon all distracting thoughts and stick to the only state of unmoving origin!
What is the origin of immobility? That is to keep people in a state of immobility, as if the world had just begun and chaos existed!
This is really unbelievable. It may be possible to get rid of distracting thoughts, but you must stick to the original source. This state of being both conservative and non-conservative is mysterious and mysterious, and ordinary people simply cannot do it!
This state is meditation.
Through meditation, people enter a deep state of emptiness. The human mind becomes ethereal, gradually abandoning the ultimate "one", and finally reaches the emptiness state of "the unity of heaven and man". When this state is reached,
People can feel the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, introduce the spiritual energy into the body, and refine it into true energy. Only then can they officially embark on martial arts practice!
It can be seen from this that during the journey of cultivation, just entering the state of emptiness is extremely difficult!
Not to mention how difficult it will be to achieve the state of Qi concentration in the future!
There are three stages in the state of emptiness: breathing, meditation and emptiness. However, most people are forced to get stuck in the meditation stage. If they cannot break through this stage, it is impossible to practice.
"So, I hope that most of you can reach the level of meditation as soon as possible in less than a year of school. Otherwise, not only will you not be able to participate in the selection and assessment of Dawuyuan, but you will also lose the opportunity to practice and become ordinary people from now on.
people……"
Leng Qiushui said lightly, "I don't think I need to say more about the gains and losses here, right?"
At the end of a class, some people were happy and some were sad.
Ding Yi was just about to get up and go to relax, but a man came over and said with a strange tone: "Hey, Ding Yi, haven't you entered the meditative state yet?"
Ding Yi looked up and saw that it was Pei Jin. He was too lazy to pay attention to him, silently packed it up, and turned to leave.
This Pei Jin is one of the few students in this school who has entered a meditative state. He is considered an elite student in the school. However, his heart is not right. Because his family is one of the major local forces, he usually does evil things.
Bullying men and dominating women, no, this time he actually took the courage of a leopard and took advantage of Ding Yi's widowed sister-in-law!
No, in the past few days, he has always used the excuse of going to Ding Yi's house to plot evil. How could Ding Yi not know what he was thinking?
Therefore, Ding Yi almost doesn't want to pay attention to such people!
Seeing that Ding Yi was about to leave, Pei Jin stopped him again and said with a smile: "Hey, where are you going in such a hurry? I said Ding Yi, I just want to make friends with you, you are not like this
Are you going to refuse people thousands of miles away?"
"Thank you Mr. Pei for your kindness, I can't afford it!" Ding Yi said coldly, turned around and left.
Bang! Pei Jin pressed Ding Yi's shoulder, and a burst of pain came from him. Ding Yi gritted his teeth and looked at Pei Jin coldly, only to see Pei Jin smile sinisterly and whisper: "Hey, boy, don't toast me."
After eating and drinking, since your short-lived brother is dead, why does your sister-in-law have to guard the living widow? Isn't it a pity for a little beauty like her to live a long life? Hehe, if you are willing to say something nice in front of your sister-in-law
In other words, I guarantee you endless glory and wealth!"
Ding Yi was so angry that he stretched out his hand to break the opponent's palm but couldn't do it. After all, Pei Jin was a practitioner of meditation, and his body was more than ten times stronger than ordinary people. Although Ding Yi had learned the art of breathing and breathing, he was nothing more than a meditator.
How can ordinary people resist with two or three times the strength?
Seeing the playful look in Pei Jin's eyes, Ding Yi wished he could punch him to death, but he knew that he couldn't do it, so for a moment, he felt an unprecedented sense of shame in his heart!
Pei Jin seemed to have noticed Ding Yi's thoughts and was not in a hurry. He just pressed him like a cat playing with a mouse.
Other students also looked over. Seeing Pei Jin bullying Ding Yi, they all dared to get angry and dare not say anything. You must know that Pei Jin has entered the meditation stage. One person is enough to defeat ten or eight people in the breathing stage like them.
of.
"Hey, put your dirty hands away!" Suddenly, a deep voice came from behind Ding Yi!
Ding Yi turned around and found that Zangli was standing behind him, glaring at Pei Jin.
When Pei Jin saw Zangli, a trace of anger and fear flashed in his eyes, but he still let go of his hand unwillingly, then patted Ding Yi on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Hey, I am not making trouble with brother Ding Yi.
Are you having fun?"
With that said, Pei Jin whispered in Ding Yi's ear: "Hey, boy, think carefully about what I just said, and come to me when you think about it! Don't toast me and eat as a penalty? I
This person’s patience is limited!”
After Pei Jin finished speaking, he took another deep look at the Tibetan calendar, and then walked away!
"Ding Yi, are you okay?" Zangli asked anxiously when he saw Pei Jin leaving.
Ding Yi endured the pain in his shoulder, shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's just a minor injury. Just go back and rub it with medicinal wine and it'll be fine."
"Huh! This Pei Jin is really bullying people!" Zangli said angrily.
"Forget it, he's not as popular as he is. Besides, his family has a huge business and we can't afford to offend him!" Ding Yi sighed helplessly, "Besides, he is still a practitioner in the meditation stage..."
"Bah! It's just him?! If his father hadn't been a master of Qi Dingjing and gave him enlightenment all day long, how could he have entered the meditation stage?" Tibetan Li obviously disliked Pei Jin very much and cursed angrily.
Other students also echoed: "Yes, what Brother Zang is saying is, isn't he just bullying people because his family is rich and powerful?"
"No, without his father Pei Hongtian giving him enlightenment and various precious herbs to refresh him every day, he would not be able to enter the meditation stage at all. And even if he enters the meditation stage, he is still far behind the Tibetan elder brother. It is nothing more than a whole day.
Eat expensive monster meat for nourishment, and then you can barely reach the first stage of meditation!" Another student echoed, obviously he also couldn't stand Pei Jin's behavior of bullying men and women.
Upon hearing this, everyone agreed. At the same time, a student said: "So, he also bullies those of us who cannot enter the meditation stage. With his level, there are even a hundred people in the entire Xilu Martial Hall."
You can’t even get in, let alone enter Dawuyuan!”
"That is, if you can't enter Dawuyuan, everything will be empty!"
"Oh, you think it's so easy to enter the Dawu Garden? Don't you know? I've heard that entering the Dawu Garden requires at least the Qi Ding realm, and you must be no more than twenty years old!"
"Oh my gosh, you are going to reach the state of Qi Ding at the age of twenty? It is simply unbelievable. It seems that only one or two people in our entire Xilu Martial Hall have reached it so far!"
"You don't want to ask, where is Dawuyuan? It is the best school in our Great Zhou Empire. Whoever graduates from Dawuyuan is not famous in the world? Even today's national counselors and national protector generals
They are all from Dawuyuan, and among them, the third-grade and above officials are all from Dawuyuan..."
For a time, the students' topics changed one after another.
After hearing this, Ding Yi couldn't help but ask: "Tibetan calendar, are you sure about entering Dawuyuan?"
Speaking of which, Tibetan calendar is considered the best student among the more than 200 students in this school. Therefore, Ding Yi feels that if he can enter, the only one who can enter the entire school is Tibetan calendar.
But Tibetan Li sighed and said: "Well, I don't have any idea. At present, I have only reached the high level of meditation and have not yet grasped the level of emptiness. It is difficult to escape from one thing, and it is even harder to abandon this one.
, I estimate that it will take at least half a year to reach the empty stage."
He was not sure when he saw his friends, let alone Ding Yi. Dawuyuan was a very distant existence for him.
"But having said that, Ding Yi, you have to be careful outside. With this guy's gritty character, he won't let you go so easily!" Pei Jin was still worried that Ding Yi would suffer in the end. In the school,
With him around, Pei Jin didn't dare to do anything to Ding Yi, but that wouldn't be the case after leaving the school.
"Well, I know, I won't be so stupid that he hits me." Ding Yi nodded, but silently swore in his heart that I would become stronger. If I didn't believe it, I wouldn't be able to enter the meditation stage!
