Lunch consisted of spiritual rice boiled with spiritual spring water, sweet juice squeezed from spiritual fruits, and two eggs laid by spiritual birds.
Although it looks simple, it is extremely delicious, especially the egg, which looks inconspicuous. After eating it, the rich spiritual power rises and spreads. After Lin Lu quickly performed several rounds of "Great Heavenly Magic", he
These spiritual energies are guided into the sea of qi.
After lunch, Old Man Han taught the exercises and practice in the afternoon.
The afternoon sun was shining brightly, the breeze was blowing, the fragrance from the grass and trees was wafting in the warm wind, and the sound of pine waves, waterfalls and birdsong were intertwined in the ears, which made people feel relaxed and happy.
Old Man Han sat cross-legged on a flat boulder by the lake, closing his eyes and regulating his breath. Lin Lu sat on the soft green grass in front of the boulder, also closing his eyes and regulating his breath.
The old man's beard and hair are white, and the child's belt is fluttering, which adds a bit of an immortal style!
After the two of them finished adjusting their breath, Old Man Han began to teach.
"Disciple, as a teacher, you are not as obedient as your wife. You have to listen carefully and don't slack off, you know?" Old Man Han's face was serious, no longer the submissive look he used to have in front of Nangong Ling.
"Disciple knows." Lin Lu sat upright with concentration on his face.
"Exhaling and breathing is the most common thing. A mortal who exhales can live less than a hundred years, but a cultivator can exhale and live for more than a thousand years. Why?
It's all because this air contains mysterious substances that are invisible to the naked eye. We cultivators call them "spirits". Therefore, there is a term "spiritual energy".
'Spirit' originates from the ground, is contained in the mountains and seas, and is illuminated by the sun and moon, inspired by all things, and then diffused in the air.
The world is vast, with mountains, rivers, snow peaks, sea ridges and deep ravines, plains, deserts, lakes and rivers, and the landforms are very different. Therefore, the "spirit" in the air has different shades depending on the region.
In a place rich in aura, monks gathered in groups and formed alliances. This was the beginning of the Taoist Immortal Sect.
Such places with rich spiritual energy are extremely rare, and are now occupied by major immortal sects. More areas have thin spiritual energy, making them useless for cultivation."
Old Man Han paused and continued,
"The spirit is originally unified and has no attributes. All things are smeared and smeared. They are divided into the five elements, circulated by the air currents, and dispersed throughout the universe.
For example, if you are a master with dual spiritual roots of wood and water, after absorbing the spiritual energy into your body, the spiritual energy will be absorbed by the wood-based exercises and transformed into wood spiritual energy. It is also like a land in the sea, where the spiritual energy will be smudged by sea water and sea animals and turn into water spiritual energy.
Therefore, the land of gold and stone is rich in gold spiritual energy, the land of forests is rich in wood spiritual energy, the land of the sea is rich in water spiritual energy, the land of rock and fire is rich in fire spiritual energy, the land of sand is rich in earth spiritual energy, and the five elements are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other, and the spiritual energy of different attributes can interact with each other.
Transformation is so mysterious that I won’t mention it for now.
Master, I will say it again, different regions have different shades of spirit, and all things are tinged with color, and they are divided into five elements."
Lin Lu nodded, and Old Man Han continued,
"The Immortal Gate Blessed Land often relies on the spiritual energy generated by the spiritual veins to breathe in and practice. Its spirit is pure and genderless, suitable for all monks to breathe in, and is the best."
Because the spiritual veins are extremely precious, so is the spiritual energy they generate. To prevent the spiritual energy from overflowing, there are spiritual locking formations set up by cultivators at the spiritual veins for their own use.
In the entire Tianyuan Continent, the best spiritual veins are occupied by a few major immortal sects, and the inferior spiritual veins are occupied by the cultivating families that are attached to the major immortal sects. It is extremely difficult for ordinary casual cultivators to have a place for spiritual veins.
There is a small spiritual vein in the ground of our two sunny valleys. After my teacher guided and dredged it, the two sunny valleys are blooming like brocade and the four seasons are like spring."
Old Man Han paused, and several spiritual stones, a pot of spiritual spring water, a handful of spiritual rice, a few spiritual fruits, several spiritual bird eggs, and a small bottle flew out from his waist, suspended in front of Lin Lu.
, and continued,
"Monks practice breathing and breathing, not just spiritual energy, because spiritual energy comes from the ground, and part of the spiritual energy, because it has nowhere to disperse, is precipitated over the years and solidified in the ore, thus giving birth to spiritual stones. The spiritual energy in the spiritual stones is abundant and has many uses.
It is widely used and easy to carry. It is the currency used by cultivators to trade items.
Absorbing the spiritual energy in spiritual stones is also a way of spiritual practice."
Lin Lu picked up the few small stones and listened while feeling the fluctuations of spiritual energy inside them. It was indeed as the master said, the spiritual energy was rich and easy to absorb.
"Part of the spiritual energy dissolves in the underground veins and turns into spring water. It is a spiritual spring. There is a spiritual spring in Liangqing Valley. We use the water in this spiritual spring for daily drinking and cooking. Spiritual spring water
The spiritual energy is rich and drinking it for a long time will be of great benefit to your practice."
Lin Lu picked up the spiritual spring water again, drank a few sips, and felt the spiritual energy flowing in his body. Lin Lu nodded slightly.
"There are also spiritual rice, spiritual fruits, and spiritual bird eggs that we eat daily, which also contain spiritual energy. Long-term consumption will also benefit our spiritual practice."
I have just used these things for lunch on Linlu, and I have the deepest experience with them.
"There are also spiritual plants and elixirs that are rooted in places with strong spiritual energy. Over the years, the spiritual power inside them accumulates. As time goes by, the medicinal properties become more and more magical. Immortal cultivators refine them into elixirs and spiritual liquids. Taking them can enhance cultivation.
Because it is the most precious. That small bottle contains a kind of elixir that can improve your cultivation. You can take one pill and try to refine it again. It will be of great benefit to your cultivation!"
Lin Lu took out a small bottle, poured out an elixir, and put it into his mouth. When the elixir slowly dissolved in his belly, he felt the rich spiritual energy spreading in his body. Lin Lu quickly used the "Great Heaven Magic" to remove this elixir.
The spiritual energy is guided into the sea of air.
After Old Man Han waited for Lin Lu to finish his exercise, he continued,
"Disciple, people in the world mistakenly believe that medicinal materials that are a thousand years old will have a medicinal age of a thousand years. No, only those medicinal materials rooted in places with strong spiritual energy and accumulated over thousands of years can have a medicinal age of a thousand years. In places with thin secular spiritual energy, medicinal materials that are thousands of years old
In the eyes of us immortal cultivators, the medicinal materials are only a few decades old. And the places with rich spiritual energy are occupied by major immortal sects, so medicinal materials that are thousands of years old are extremely difficult to circulate among ordinary immortal cultivators.
.The oldest medicinal materials in the Liangqing Valley are only about 200 years old. It was by chance that I transplanted a medicinal plant that was a hundred years old and carefully cultivated it in the valley. Because of the spirit of age,
The medicine is extremely precious and needs to be stored in a special box made of jade to prevent the loss of medicinal properties."
When Old Man Han said this, several more jade boxes flew out from his waist, floated in front of Lin Lu, and said softly,
"Disciple, please put all the things in front of you into the storage bag. Next, I have other arrangements for you as a teacher."
After Lin Lu collected the items, Old Man Han continued,
"My teacher has said so much. To sum up, immortal cultivators do two things, one is to absorb spirits and the other is to exorcise spirits. The first is to absorb spiritual energy and turn it into one's own use, and the latter is to drive spiritual energy and turn it into magical powers.
What people call flying to the sky and escaping from the earth is the use of spiritual energy to display various magical powers."
"And to absorb spiritual energy, we have to talk about the meridians in the body. The meridians in the body extend in all directions, and spiritual energy flows through the meridians. If the spiritual energy cannot be guided correctly, the spiritual energy will be accumulated and blocked, which may lead to rupture of the meridians. In the mild case, it will be unbearable pain, and in the worst case, the meridians will be ruptured.
His power has been greatly reduced and he has become a useless person."
Old Man Han took out a three-inch jade figurine, used his energy to send it, and flew it in front of Lin Lu, and then said,
"Apprentice, this is a jade figure that I got by chance in my early years as a teacher. This jade figure has the same meridian network carved into its body as the human body. You only need to input a little spiritual power to browse the meridian network inside.
, it can also guide the flow of spiritual power within it, and is an excellent tool for familiarizing with the meridians. In addition, a set of eight levels of ordinary martial arts and mental techniques are marked with eight colored lines in the body of the jade figurine. Although we cultivators do not practice
That internal force, but this set of exercises can be driven by spiritual power instead, and combined with this boxing manual, it has the effect of strengthening the body."
Old Man Han put a common martial arts secret book into Lin Lu's arms, looked at Lin Lu's excited expression, and then said,
"Disciple, these ordinary martial arts are only for strengthening the body. When your practice deepens and you experience various magical powers, you will know that these martial arts moves are difficult to use against the enemy. It is a waste of time to practice mortal martial arts.
In terms of learning, it is just a matter of abandoning the basics and chasing the weak.”
"Disciple, please remember your master's teachings!" Lin Lu hurriedly said respectfully,
"Master, what is the difference between the internal power of mortals who practice martial arts and the spiritual power of us immortal cultivators?" Lin Lu asked curiously.
Han Mo paused and then said,
"According to the research results of Tianluo Sect, due to the circulation of air, the mysterious substance such as spirit is dispersed in the air of the universe. Over time, the spirit is smudged with other substances in the air. Mortal warriors absorb and store this kind of mysterious substance.
The "pseudo-spiritual" substance dyed by the spirit forms the internal force, but the truly precious spiritual energy cannot be retained, which is a helpless way for mortals to sacrifice the good and the weak. If a cultivator condenses the energy before entering the body, absorbing and storing a large amount of this
'Pseudo-spiritual' substances are harmful to one's spiritual practice but not beneficial at all. Fortunately, Lu'er has completed the process of condensing Qi into his body. I observe that the spiritual Qi in your Qi sea is extremely pure, and this set of mortals in the jade villain
Martial arts mental skills can also be driven by spiritual power, so I give this little jade figure to you."
"Today's practice ends here. I will give you five days to familiarize yourself with the meridians in the Jade Man. Remember not to be too obsessed with worldly martial arts. I still have some farm work to do. You can practice on your own."
Lin Lu hurriedly stood up and gave Han Mo a courtesy. Old Han stood up, resumed his trembling old farmer appearance, and walked towards the orchard and medicine garden on the hillside.
After Han Mo walked away, Lin Lu excitedly picked up the martial arts secret book. The cover said "Seventy-two Ways of Psychic Fist". Of course, Lin Lu couldn't understand these words yet.
This set of boxing techniques was created by a martial arts master with pseudo-spiritual roots.
This martial arts master was born into a martial arts family and was extremely talented in martial arts. In just thirty years, he mastered all kinds of martial arts. Later, by chance, he learned that he had the spiritual root qualification to activate the meridians and acupuncture points in his body.
The accumulation of 'false spirits' makes the path to immortality difficult.
In order to get rid of the "pseudo-spiritual substances" in the body, this martial arts master combined various martial arts skills from the first half of his life and created this set of "Seventy-two Ways of Psychic Fist" to guide the spiritual energy to wash away and replace the "pseudo-spirits" in the body.
substance.
Although the martial arts master's cultivation finally stopped in the middle stage of Qi Condensation, for a practitioner with pseudo-spiritual qualifications who only entered the threshold of cultivation in his forties and accumulated "pseudo-spiritual matter" in his body,
It’s already a miracle!
The "Seventy-two Ways of Spiritual Fist" technique is divided into eight levels, covering all meridians and acupuncture points in the body. When practiced to the extreme, all the 'pseudo-spiritual' substances in the meridians can be expelled from the body.
This martial arts master, considering the shortcomings of his boxing skills, is not easy to fight in close quarters, especially in battles with immortal cultivators.
The last few pages of the boxing manual also record a footwork that matches the "Seventy-two Ways of Psychic Fist", called "Qianhuan Psychedelic Footsteps".
Han Mo was born into a family of immortal cultivators. The elders in his family taught him since he was a child, and he has a disdain for mortal martial arts from the bottom of his heart.
Later, by chance, he obtained the jade figure and the boxing manual, and learned that this mortal martial arts has the effect of removing "pseudo-spiritual" substances from the body. At first, Han Mo was a little curious and tried to practice the first level of "Seventy-two Roads"
Psychic Fist".
However, since he was a child, he practiced in the land of spiritual veins and absorbed pure spiritual energy. There was not much 'pseudo-spiritual' material. It felt like it was a waste of time.
In order to quickly build the foundation and form a Taoist couple with Nangong Ling, he practiced the immortal family magic day and night. The jade figurine and the boxing manual were kept in the corner of the storage bag for nearly a hundred years until Lin Lu arrived.
He gave it to Lin Lu as a small toy. This chapter has been completed!
