Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 10: Shaohai Cave Gold
On the way back, Wei Tianchong remained silent.
Until he entered the Jingxin Garden and saw Tang Jie and Shi Meng cleaning the house, sorting out the newly purchased spiritual seeds, and opening up wasteland, Wei Tianchong suddenly said: "Tang Jie, am I quite right?" Useless?"
"Why do you ask this, young master?"
"You don't tell me, but I know it." Wei Tianchong sat slumped on a stone bench: "In your eyes, I probably have a better background. Without the Wei family, I am actually nothing but a waste. , so much so that I can’t even live without you..."
Shi Meng hurriedly said: "Young Master, please don't say that. You are the Young Master, and we should serve you if you need anything."
"Stop coaxing me, Shi Meng, I didn't ask you, I asked Tang Jie. Tang Jie, you won't lie to me, right?"
Tang Jie smiled, put the sorted spiritual seeds aside, walked to Wei Tianchong and sat down, grabbed his left hand, and jerked one of the fingers back. It showed a weird bend at a ninety-degree angle. Wei Tianchong was stunned when he saw it. Tang Jie asked him: "Can you do it?"
Wei Tianchong shook his head.
Tang Jie said: "It's a small talent. My bones can be twisted more than the average person, but it's of no use."
Wei Tianchong was confused and Tang Jie said: "In fact, everyone has their own talents, but everyone is different. Some talents are more useful, and some talents are of no use at all. In my opinion, the Wei family For you, young master, it seems to be your innate talent, young master, and it is a relatively useful one. So, is it wrong to have a talent?"
"Of course not, then you mean it's not my fault that I don't know these things?" Wei Tianchong asked excitedly.
"Of course it's not wrong. Those of us who are cultivating immortals seek to escape from the ordinary world out of the common world. Isn't the purpose of getting rid of the troubles of the world? Since you are born in a noble family and are born to be able to keep your fingers free of spring water, then why do you become immortals? Do you have to know these things? Isn't this putting the cart before the horse?" Tang Jie asked rhetorically.
Hearing this, Wei Tianchong became obviously excited, but Shi Meng felt incredible. He thought Tang Jie would take the opportunity to persuade Wei Tianchong, but he didn't expect Tang Jie to say these words. .
This flattery... I didn’t see it!
"But..." Tang Jie said in a long tone.
Wei Tianchong's heart immediately tightened: "But what?"
"But it's not wrong to have talent, but it's a big mistake not to know how to develop and utilize your talent. The young master comes from a noble family and has great wealth and power. These are not wrong, but if you can't make good use of these resources and work hard to cultivate immortality, you will end up in trouble. If you are not as good as an ordinary person, then you will be miserable. So the young master may not be able to do these chores, but you must practice the magic. If you can't even do this... then you are really a waste! ”
Tang Jie said seriously.
He did not take the opportunity to suggest that Wei Tianchong should give up his bad habit of eating and being lazy.
The young master is the young master. The living habits have been formed over the years. How can it be said that it can be changed? Today he is dejected, but tomorrow he might be back to his old ways.
Never believe in a momentary awakening. Few people can realize it all at once. It seems like they have changed overnight. If their nature is so easy to change, it is not their nature.
But on the other hand, today's blow can take away a lot of Wei Tianchong's arrogance and let him know that family background has advantages, but relying solely on family background is not advisable. Only by making good use of family conditions and improving oneself is the right way.
Even if he can't do it for the time being, at least he already knows what is right. It turned out that he didn't even know this.
What's more, what Tang Jie said is right. In this Xiyue Academy, farming and other chores are just means after all, not the pursuit of life. There is no need to use this to prove the young master's growth.
The next moment Wei Tianchong asked: "Then how do you think I can make good use of my advantages?"
"It's simple. Young master, aren't you very talented in carving? Originally, if you want to achieve success in this way, it will take a long time and require a lot of investment. It cannot be profitable in a short time. But since young master Your family background is good, so it’s not a bad idea to engage in this practice from the beginning. Compared with those students who are still working hard for food and clothing, and practicing some small fairy arts, at least you can now come into contact with advanced cultivation methods. Isn’t it better? Okay?"
Wei Tianchong's eyes lit up: "You are right, from today on, I will practice hard and make some achievements."
Tang Jie grabbed Wei Tianchong's hand and was excited: "I have been waiting for these words for too long, young master, you are finally an adult!"
Wei Tianchong: "..."
Shi Meng: "..."
——————————————————
After finishing all the business, Tang Jie returned to his residence. He first cleaned the house and sprinkled the spiritual grain seeds. In addition, he also bought some flowers and placed them in the yard.
Wei Tianchong laughed at him because he was used to being a gardener and even went to school to garden.
After doing this, Tang Jie began to prepare for the practice of the Shaohai Cave Golden Scripture.
Shaohai Cave Golden Jue can be said to be the best and most powerful of all the basic cultivation methods of Xiyue Sect, but it is also the most difficult to practice.
The biggest feature of this mental method is that it condenses like a needle, condenses it repeatedly, and the cultivated energy is strong. Therefore, it is most suitable for practicing armor-breaking, strong attack, etc. It can penetrate gold and crack jade, and can destroy anything. . In other words, after practicing this skill, even if there is no magic, just a ray of spiritual energy shot with a finger will solidify like a needle.
The effect of practicing armor-breaking spells based on this is better, but precisely because of this, the requirements for practice are relatively high, and its methods are much more complicated than other methods.
At this moment, Tang Jie had entered concentration and began to exhale spiritual energy according to what he had recorded in his mind.
The spiritual energy enters from the Jade Gate and first travels through the Shaoyin Heart Meridian of the Hand. It swirls the spiritual energy, changes according to the law at each place it reaches, and then returns when it reaches the entire channel. This is a cycle. Then the Qi moves through another meridian, and another cycle is performed according to the law.
The twelve meridians of the human body have exactly twelve cycles. When the twelve cycles are completed, the air pillars will roll into whirlpools and flow in from Shaohai, forming a spiritual space in the body, which is the place where practitioners store spiritual energy. The point of entry is the spiritual eye.
This is regarded as completing a preliminary practice, which is usually called a Great Zhoutian.
After repeating this process, the spiritual eyes are fully opened and the spiritual space is gradually formed. At this time, it is considered to have been completed for the first time.
This sounds simple, but when he actually started practicing, Tang Jie realized that spiritual energy was so difficult to control.
In the past, when he absorbed and utilized, he only took it in and released it, and only tried to control the running circuit. Unlike now, there are all kinds of changes in the middle - he even has to learn to control those changes, and the spiritual energy needs to travel throughout the body. .
This is also the biggest feature of Xuanmen's authentic mental method. It pays attention to step by step. Even the worst method will not give up on the maintenance of other meridians, but the degree is different. The biggest advantage of this approach is that you can practice whatever you want in the future without any fundamental problems.
For those who are eager for quick success and short-term benefits, they often only practice the main meridian and a few auxiliary meridian. In extreme cases, one cycle may be a big week, and the result is that one branch is dominant. In the long-term practice, the strong trunk and the weak branch , the meridians that are not nourished will gradually wither and eventually cannot be repaired.
If you don’t practice properly, you may become deformed.
The Golden Jue of Shaohai Cave itself is one of the most complex basic methods of Xiyue Sect. Although it is practiced on the Shaoyin main meridian of the hand, it also has strict requirements on other meridians. It is a general pattern of one king, two phases and nine generals. The Heart Meridian of Hand Shaoyin is the king, the Kidney Meridian of Foot Shaoyin and the Taiyang Meridian of Hand are mutual meridian, and the rest are General Meridians.
Therefore, each of the twelve cycles is complex and very demanding.
Tang Jie is like going up a mountain doing gymnastics. If he can't do it well, he has to change the road. He has to go through all the roads before he can officially complete the mountain climbing.
If you make a wrong step, you will waste some spiritual energy. Often, you will run out of breath before you are halfway through the journey. Not to mention the energy vortex that requires twelve different cycles to form, even a basic small cycle will be exhausted. can not complete.
This is only the first level of mental skills.
But Tang Jie was not in a hurry.
He knows that things like Zhou Tian Yuan, to put it bluntly, are just like typing on a keyboard. From being unable to type a word in a long time to being able to type hundreds of words in a minute, one always needs to be proficient.
It’s just that daily operation is more complicated and difficult than typing on the keyboard, so the proficiency bar is also extra long.
The importance of Yumen is reflected at this time.
The Jade Gate is where spiritual energy is breathed out. The more the Jade Gate is opened, the more spiritual energy can be absorbed at one time, the stronger the sense of energy and the easier it is to grasp. At the same time, the more losses it can withstand along the way, the greater the chance of completing the air whirlpool. The larger it is, and even the effect of the air vortex is better.
It can be said that the Jade Gate is a gate for releasing water. The larger the gate is opened, the larger the water will naturally be, and the power it brings will be doubled.
Therefore, it may take seven or eight days for a newcomer at the third level of Yumen to complete a twelve-cycle cycle, while it may only take one day for a newcomer at the ninth level of the Yumen. In this way, the gap becomes obvious.
Tang Jie only felt that the spiritual energy in his body was like a roller skate under the feet of a new scholar. It would take people out uncontrollably at every turn, and even fall on their backs if not careful.
Reflected in practice, the spiritual energy occasionally loses control and collides with the meridians, causing the practitioner to suffer injuries.
Although it is said that the Xiyue Sect is an authentic sect and most of its mental methods are extremely safe, injuries caused by improper practice still cannot be completely avoided. However, in this short time, Tang Jie had hit his own meridians five times in a row, and he only felt The feeling of blockage in my chest was extremely uncomfortable. In particular, this Hundred Refining Technique emphasizes the condensation of Qi like a needle. When a Qi needle rushes around in the meridians, you can imagine the taste.
The chest pain means that the impact was mainly concentrated here.
Shaohai Cave Golden Jue draws in Qi from the Jade Gate and exerts force from the heart, which means that he is equivalent to tripping as soon as he steps out of the house. ~IndoMTL.com~ He could only shake his head helplessly at this, but he knew that this was an immature relationship after all. As he practiced more and became more proficient, he would probably be able to transfer the pain from his chest to all parts of his body—— What an ambitious idea.
Because it would backlash against him, Tang Jie did not attack, but stopped to rest for a while and rub his chest.
He now understood that diligence may not make up for clumsiness.
Cultivators never advocate excessive cultivation. What they fear is that in the process of cultivation, they will injure themselves, damage their meridians, and miss their future. Moreover, in this regard, even those who are in the ninth rotation of Yumen will not have an advantage over others.
To put it bluntly, Yumen Jiuzhuan's family background is the same as that of Wei Tianchong, except that the resources are high at the beginning, and in the later stage, you still have to rely on yourself.
Of course, poor talent can also be compensated for by resources.
If you can take the elixir during your practice, you can increase the aura content, which is equivalent to temporarily improving your qualifications, but it will be useless after the medicinal effect wears off, and you will ultimately be inferior to those with talent.
The medicine Xu Muyang gave him had been sold when he fled for his life in the early years. The few leftover were given to the two elders of the Wu family to nurse themselves back to health. The only medicine in Tang Jie's hand now was the elixir that Lu Chenyang used to treat his injuries in Tanmo. Unfortunately, he only had half a bottle, and the medicine was not suitable for the patient's condition. It was not a Qi-tonifying pill. If he used it, he would waste more than he could absorb.
"How about continuing to exercise and wait until you are injured before using the medicine to heal yourself? I'm afraid the medicine is not right." Tang Jie couldn't help but think.
"Wait..." Tang Jie suddenly realized something and said to himself: "Didn't I practice the Zangxiang Sutra? The spiritual energy enters the body, the blood, and the bones. I have even washed the pulse for three years. The physical qualifications He has long been different from others. He has never been sick in the past three years and recovers very quickly even from being whipped. So his ability to withstand shocks should be much stronger, right?"
Thinking of this, Tang Jie's eyes suddenly lit up.
