Chapter 341 Volume C Self-Examination, Bitterness and Perfection
Chen Huaisheng spent a lot of time thinking about the "Lingbao Minghuang Jing".
In his opinion, cultivation is the excavation and release of the potential of the Dao bone and spiritual roots, so how to cultivate and strengthen the potential of the Dao bone and spiritual roots is crucial.
Before this, most of the sect monks believed that the Dao bone and spiritual roots were determined by heaven, and it was more about excavating their potential, but it was difficult to strengthen their essence.
At this point, it is difficult to say that the views of these sects are wrong.
Because it is true that many geniuses are born with talents that are not comparable to other ordinary people. No matter how you tap your potential and practice, it is difficult to reach the realm of others, and even far behind.
This is also the concept that many sects have always determined, that is, the talent is determined by heaven, born, and it is difficult for the outside world to change its fundamentals, so you can only work hard to tap the potential.
Of course, there are also some sect monks and casual cultivators who are skeptical about this point, believing that although the Dao bone and spiritual roots are determined by birth, they can still be improved to a certain extent through internal and external cultivation.
This view has not been recognized by the mainstream cultivation. They still believe that the so-called internal cultivation and external cultivation is actually to tap the potential hidden in the spiritual roots of the Taoist bone.
The several schools that annotated the "Lingbao Minghuang Jing" are actually non-mainstream, tending to improve the state of the bones through internal cultivation and external cultivation, but Xitang and Dazhao tend to achieve this goal through internal cultivation, while the Wuyue branch is more optimistic about external cultivation, and is more extensive and rich in the use of prescriptions and elixirs.
Chen Huaisheng added some of his own experience and insights to the Wuyue branch of the "Lingbao Minghuang Jing". His several years of spiritual farming and alchemy career in Qingmumen also gave him some ideas of his own in this regard, and now he can give it a try.
Although there are still some risks, Chen Huaisheng feels that he can bear it. If he can find a way, he will benefit a lot in the future.
After Hu Delu's body tempering, he had always wanted to try it, but Hu Delu and Min Qingyu were too low in level, so his own experiment was too dangerous, and many insights could only be felt most intuitively by practicing it himself, just like practicing. Only by experiencing it yourself can you get the most accurate perception.
The hot soup entered the body through the meridians, constantly impacting the spiritual roots and Dao bones.
Dao bones were the first to be hit.
Because several main medicines focus on Dao bones, such as violent tiger bones (canglang bones), phantom gold vines, and black moon stones, the medicinal power enters the meridians and penetrates the Dao bones the most.
Waves of medicinal power penetrate into Dao bones through soup, especially the spiritual heat brought by the red rock essence, making Dao bones soften and melt continuously.
Dao bones are not bones in the body, but the charm that depends on bones. It can be said that it is precisely because of the existence of this charm that Dao seeds are Dao seeds instead of mortals. The difference between Dao seeds and mortals is that this body of bones has charm, so he is Dao bone, which is also called Dao seeds.
Only when you have the Dao bone, you are qualified to practice cultivation. Otherwise, the practice spell can directly crush your bones and destroy them.
The medicinal power penetrated into the Dao bone, and the three spirits felt the impact. Chen Huaisheng continued to improve his spiritual power and stimulated the operation of the three spirits to maintain the stability of the Dao bone. This confrontation is actually a form of medicine cultivation and medicine nourishment.
Soon Chen Huaisheng felt the fierce force brought by this impact.
The Dao bone is like a reef on the coast, constantly washed and baptized, and the spiritual power is agitated. Even if the three spirits penetrate into it, they are also eroded and soaked by this long-lasting and rich medicinal power.
Gradually, the reef turned into a pile of mud, and then into a sand dune. It seems that the next round of washing will completely erode and collapse it.
Chen Huaisheng jumped up and struggled out of the wooden barrel. He panted and sat cross-legged on the practice kang, waving his spiritual power to consolidate his Dao bone again.
Until the spiritual power was repeatedly gathered and condensed, allowing the Dao bone to solidify again, Chen Huaisheng gritted his teeth and re-entered the barrel.
Over and over again.
This feeling of scouring, soaking, and corrosion is hard to describe in words.
It's like a drowning person drowning your mouth and nose bit by bit, leaving you completely in darkness. You need to struggle out at the last moment and use practice to consolidate your own Dao bone body.
Chen Huaisheng couldn't remember how many times he had struggled in the bucket.
It wasn't until the fire spirit of the red rock primordial juice was completely eliminated, the medicinal power was almost completely absorbed, and the soup became cold that he struggled to get up and complete the course.
The body was excited, but the mind was exhausted. A good sleep was the best recovery.
When he woke up, Chen Huaisheng didn't know how long he had slept, but he felt that it was probably more than a day.
It was so comfortable, both physically and mentally happy, indescribably light and transparent, and even his thinking was much more agile and sharp.
He looked at his whole body, and there was no change. He gathered his spiritual power, and it seemed that his response speed had increased, but maybe it was just psychological induction.
Standing still, he suddenly urged the spiritual power from the meridians to the Dao bone. A series of tiny sounds came into his ears. Chen Huaisheng stood still and experienced it carefully.
The Dao bone seemed to be more solid, but maybe it was a little ideal. This was the first time, and the effect might be better, but there were six more times, and the effect might not be so obvious.
Maybe the medicine could be stronger next time?
It's not impossible.
Chen Huaisheng pondered. Although he felt like a drowning man escaping death every time he jumped out of the wooden barrel, he felt that he could still grasp that node and would not be unable to jump out at the last moment.
If the medicine was stronger, or some spiritual medicine was replaced, the rhyme of the Dao bone might be more substantial and complete.
He longed to become stronger faster. The improvement of Dao bone rhyme would allow him to withstand stronger training intensity.
The door opened.
A surprised voice came: "Master Dao, are you awake?"
Chen Huaisheng put on his clothes and got off the kang. "Just woke up. How long have I slept?"
"Two days." Min Qingyu's eyes were bright. He walked closer and carefully dressed Chen Huaisheng, combed his hair, and tied his hair.
"Is there anything wrong these two days?" Chen Huaisheng felt that his sense of smell seemed to have become more sensitive. This must be a psychological effect. This prescription is not so powerful.
"Nothing." Min Qingyu paused, "The head heard that you were in seclusion for training, and he also specially greeted you."
"It's really inappropriate to be in seclusion at this time, but I feel like it when I want to do it." Chen Huaisheng smiled, "It's not a seclusion, it's only three days in total, and it doesn't matter if Chonghua Sect loses me."
Since the sect let him practice with peace of mind, Chen Huaisheng naturally wouldn't go looking for trouble. He took Min Qingyu straight to the mountain.
He wanted to see how much change there was after the first bone tempering, and he also needed a quieter and undisturbed environment to let him seriously think about the next plan of his spirit body.
In an unfamiliar environment, he could more keenly perceive the subtle changes in his Dao bone, spiritual root, cauldron, and even spiritual realm, spells, sword cultivation, and even spiritual consciousness.
Sitting on the stone, quiet and silent.
Let the mountain breeze blow gently.
Chen Huaisheng expelled the three spirits.
The density of the Dao bone increased, which was within his expectations, but it was not enough. He had to finish the seven temperings to know the changes of the Dao bone.
The spiritual root did not change much, which was also expected, but if this method was expanded, whether it could be extended to the spiritual root, it still needed to be tried slowly.
The cauldron changed, but under the spiritual consciousness, the cauldron condensed brighter, but it was blue-gray, which should be related to the transformation and feedback of the resentful spirit after absorbing a few words of the demon corpse's demon ghost Yin power.
It's a pity that the demon corpse is too strong, and the resentful spirit failed to obtain more Yin spirit power, which is better than nothing.
Now, it has become a resentful spirit that can constantly bring me some unexpected gains, while the tiger and ape spirits feel a bit useless.
In addition to helping me improve my progress in the spiritual realm, it seems that there is no other use.
Maybe I am asking too much? What else do you want if it can help improve the progress of the spiritual realm?
Chen Huaisheng felt that he was a little bit arrogant, and his appetite was getting bigger and bigger. He always wanted to squeeze these three spirits more.
However, he did think that the tiger and ape spirits should not only help him guide the spiritual power during his practice. What about in battle?
There will be a lot of troubles when the tiger and ape spirits leave the body. Once they are noticed or frightened by stronger enemies, what will happen? I dare not take this risk.
It is better to make plans in practice and give full play to the role of the two spirits while ensuring safety to the maximum extent.
On this point, I still have to think about it carefully.
Maybe the next step is to explore the spiritual roots?
The exploration of the spiritual realm is measured by the growth in the cauldron.
The change of each layer of color can basically show the progress of the practice of this spiritual realm.
This is also related to the resentful spirit feeding back the spiritual liquid. It would be great if the tiger and ape spirits could join in, but now it seems that there is no additional ability and opportunity for the tiger and ape spirits to guide the practice.
Chen Huaisheng evaluated that if he wanted to impact the eighth level of Qi Refining according to the current practice progress, it would probably take until the end of the year or even next year.
He was not very satisfied. This was only in a normal state. Like this battle with the demons and ghosts, his improvement in thunder magic and the resentful spirits' feeding back were beneficial to the improvement of the spiritual realm.
I have to admit that this kind of external experience is really beneficial, at least it is reflected in me.
If you are not in the most tense environment, you will never be able to push your potential to the extreme, and every time you release your potential in a life-and-death situation, the effect is far better than the ordinary morning and evening classes. Of course, the basic practice class is the foundation of the potential release, and the two are irreplaceable.
You still have to find an opportunity to go out and practice, but the risk of this practice is uncontrollable. Death will make everything go back to zero. But when you have absolute protection, it is difficult to force out your maximum potential and release the effect of this practice.
After thinking for a long time, Chen Huaisheng shook his head and knew the bitterness.
When the thunder method moves, the grass and trees are shocked.
Although it has only been three days, Chen Huaisheng can easily release the eleventh thunder method-thundering everything!
Perfect!
