Chapter 14 Cultivation of the Heart
It is said that there is a saying in the evaluation of the "Four Heroes, Five Shows and Seven Fierce". The "Four Heroes" are naturally the top four in this competition, and Yao Yong is one of the "Four Heroes".
"Five Shows" are the five youngest among the top sixteen, four of them are women, and they are also the only four women who entered the top sixteen in this competition. Shi Lingling was very angry about this and personally He found the only man in the "Five Shows", a monk who had just reached the ninth level of blood refining, and defeated him in public, taking the title of "Five Shows".
The rest are "Qi Meng", and some good people also ranked Lu Ping first in the "Seven Meng".
Lu Ping was dismissive of this, but he had nothing to do with his reputation.
Lu Ping respected Liu Xianchang quite a bit, especially after entering the late stage of blood refining, Liu Xianchang meticulously instructed him several times. After he broke through and was injured in the big competition, Liu Xianchang was the protector of the law, and used a precious and top-quality recovery pill to stabilize the injury and restore it. Lu Ping was rescued from the brink of collapse.
Liu Xianchang's three-day explanation was rich in content, and Lu Ping was very rewarding, even a little shocking.
On the first day, Professor Liu Xianchang explained the various problems encountered from the eighth to the ninth level of blood refining, and the various situations that need attention. Liu Xianchang explained them one by one, including various preparations for the hemolysis period.
If the gap between the monks in the blood refining period is not too obvious, the hemolysis period is a watershed. The difference lies in the exercises that each cultivator cultivates, the cultivation resources he possesses, the wisdom, determination and courage to face difficulties, and even luck.
This is a path of rapid progress, and a little laxity and hesitation will result in a narrowing or even cutting off the path of cultivation.
After the first day's explanation, Lu Ping always had a question in his heart: "What exactly is cultivation?"
Lu Ping thought about it for a whole night, and thought about thousands of reasons for cultivation. Finally, he no longer hesitated, and his eyes became clear again.
When Liu Xianchang asked the next day, Lu Ping only had two words: longevity!
Liu Xian said: "Is this the only reason? Are there other reasons?"
Lu Ping shook his head and said: "In the beginning, the disciples had many complicated thoughts in their minds, no matter which one was a feasible reason, but in the end, only this one is the most practical and immortal. Other reasons will follow. As time fades away, this is the only reason that will last forever."
Liu Xian laughed "haha" for a long time: "It's a good one that lasts forever, and a child can be taught!" After all, Lu Ping's eyes were complicated for a while, there were joy, jealousy, memories, and bitterness...
Lu Ping didn't know that this was a mental test for the disciples who had reached the eighth level in the Zhenling Academy. The purpose, root, and reason of each cultivator's cultivation were different, and each cultivator even had a lot of thoughts. Now the cultivator may not be aware of it, or even feel that it is making a big fuss, but with the improvement of cultivation and the growth of mood, every thought will turn into an obsession, and every obsession is a fetter for future cultivation. Thousands of years later, once The reason for his practice may be shattered with the passage of time, and it may be unrealistic. These thoughts are too entangled, and even turn into demons, threatening the life of the monk.
Only by establishing an unchanging and stable idea of cultivation can it be a guarantee that a monk may go further.
Lu Ping doesn't know this now. Maybe after many years, with the improvement of Lu Ping's cultivation, he will wake up to the significance of Liu Xianchang today.
The content of the second day was about the experience and precautions of the monks in the blood refining period when they hit the hemolytic period, and even the cultivation methods in the hemolytic period. This part made Lu Ping a little stunned.
Liu Xianchang looked at Lu Ping's expression and said with a smile, "Why, do you feel that cultivation is difficult now?"
Lu Ping nodded and said, "Although the disciple is determined to go on no matter how difficult it is, he never thought that it would be such a cultivation process."
Liu Xian said: "Do you know how many chances a blood refiner has to enter the hemolysis period?"
Lu Ping said: "Choose one in a hundred.
"
Liu Xianchang asked again, "Does the forging cultivator know?"
Lu Ping shook his head, and Liu Xianchang said: "It's hard to pick one in a thousand miles, and every step in the forging stage is in crisis, and every step is related to the ultimate achievement of cultivation. Even this immortal knows very little. There are tens of thousands of outer sect disciples, but only a few thousand disciples in the hemolysis stage. This is because the lifespan of the monks in the hemolysis stage is more than double that of the blood refining stage. , It is said that regardless of the dozens, as for the legendary ancestor of the law phase period, even this immortal has never seen it, just know that there must be such a power in this sect."
Lu Ping had already heard his heartbeat at this time, and his heart was infinitely longing for those masters.
Seeing Lu Ping's expression, Liu Xianchang knew that he was already absent-minded, so he said, "I'm here today, and I'm tired too. You just need to remember everything you said today."
The content of the explanation on the third day is the world of people in the cultivation world, the precautions in the cultivation world, the situation in the cultivation world, etc. Some even Liu Xianchang knows very little. On the contrary, the more Lu Ping listened to the more questions, Liu Xianchang stopped Lu Ping from asking questions. , said: "The world of practice is vast, and even this immortal can't fully understand it. He can only give you the basic things, and you will understand and experience it yourself in the future."
After finishing the explanation that day, Liu Xianchang took out two jade slips and said, "These two jade slips, one recording all kinds of heaven and earth treasures that can be used in the cultivation world, are summed up by the seniors of the sect who traveled the world over the years. Although it is not complete, it is enough for you to wait for a cultivator in the blood refining stage. The other piece is the customs and customs of the cultivation world recorded by the predecessors of the past dynasties, and it is essential to go out and travel."
Lu Ping took the two jade slips and said in deep thought: "Xianchang, does the sect need me to wait for the disciples to go out to perform tasks, otherwise how can they make such thorough preparations?"
Liu Xianchang was stunned for a moment, "haha" smiled and said, "You are clever, but you are not entirely right. The sect has always been a rule, and disciples who have reached the eighth level of blood refining must go out for travel. Although there are no other hard rules for this, it is also true for the sect. Sect disciples try to be fully prepared when they go out. This has always been the case. You are not special this time. After all, you are waiting for the future of the sect. Maybe one of them will be the future master of the law phase, the pillar of the sect. Although there are other things intervening at one time, this immortal chief is not very clear about the specific situation, you can wait for the news from the sect."
Liu Xianchang's remarks confirmed Lu Ping's thoughts, but Lu Ping's doubts were even deeper.
Lu Ping got out of Liu Xianchang's house, and recalled what Liu Xianchang said, and laughed sadly. Even Liu Xianchang didn't know much about such things. Obviously, it was a means of forging a real person or even a more powerful method. What else can the blood cultivator let these characters calculate? Even if there is some care, how can they jump out of their chess game because of their own cultivation base and obedient obedience?
The only thing I can do is to work hard in a step-by-step manner, so that I have one more chance to save my life in the calculation of the big man.
