I am your natural enemy

Wen Yan really didn’t quite understand. He didn’t even have a soul, so how could he learn the old Taoist’s method of controlling the soul?

Likewise, he was really envious.

He had been waiting to copy the homework for several months. So far, the method of Yuanshen should be the highest-grade thing that could be created by any cultivator other than him.

If nothing unexpected happens, it should still be higher than the current version.

Wen Yan was determined to learn it even if she couldn't!

As soon as the old Taoist priest saw Wen Yan's expression, he knew what Wen Yan was thinking. He did not hide anything and started teaching directly.

“Under normal circumstances, it is unlikely to condense the Yuan Shen directly.

I have re-summarized my thoughts these days and realized that if I were to start from scratch, I would have to strengthen my body first.

Nourish your energy, strengthen your spirit, and wait until you truly become a cultivator.

Then, through various methods, either actively or passively, the Yin Spirit leaves the body.

Every night, when you are illuminated by the moonlight, blow the night wind, and travel ten miles at night, and when you are not afraid of the northwest wind, you can find a way to ignite the Yang energy and train the Yin spirit.

Until you can use the midday Yang energy at noon to train the Yin Spirit and complete the transformation.

If he survives the catastrophe again, he may be able to condense his primordial spirit.

After achieving the primordial spirit, even if the physical body perishes, the vitality will not perish.

In my opinion, maybe at this time, even if the physical body is destroyed, there is still a chance to reincarnate, give up everything, and start over again.

All the processes in between require a strong enough body to support it.

The body and the spirit are not separate; neither is indispensable.

If my physical condition was as strong as yours before, I wouldn't have nearly died."

"What are the details?" Wen Yan asked quickly. If he was just allowed to brag, he could brag to this extent.

"I'll give you a brief explanation of the framework and the general process first. Tell you something you can understand, and then we'll go through it slowly later."

As he spoke, the old Taoist priest took out a copy of "Laozi" and handed it to Wen Yan.

"All the cultivation methods that can be used have been marked out for you. Please read them for yourself."

After Wen Yan opened it and turned to a page, there were some marked words in it.

"Before the union of male and female is known, the semen is produced, which is the culmination of essence..."

Wen Yan was confused. He quickly turned to the front and carefully read the content of the first article. Then he looked at the printing information page. It was indeed a very ordinary Tao Te Ching, with poor printing quality. You could buy one for a few dollars.

"Old Heavenly Master, is this a method of cultivation?"

“All the principles in this world have the same end, but the same thing may be described differently.

It is also possible that some things can only be understood but not expressed in words, in which case it would be most appropriate to use the words of the sages to guide us.

At least you will innately believe that this logic is correct, so that you can continue to move forward.

Even the methods of cultivating the Tao are just there, but ordinary people cannot read them, and are unwilling to read or learn them.

If there is no ready-made method for the cultivator, I will find some ready-made ones for you."

As the old Taoist priest spoke, he handed Wen Yan another copy of Zhuangzi.

“All the places where it can be used are highlighted for you.

According to your understanding, you can regard it as a method.

Of course, if it is not the main point, you can take a good look at it, there is no harm.

Being able to understand multiple meanings and be able to distinguish them clearly is a clear improvement.”

When Wen Yan opened Zhuangzi, he saw a marked paragraph inside. Next to this paragraph, the word "key point" was specially added.

"Once upon a time, Zhuang Zhou dreamed that he was a butterfly, flitting about like a butterfly. He thought he was content and did not know that he was Zhuang Zhou.

Suddenly I woke up and found myself in Zhou.

I don’t know whether Zhou dreamed that he was a butterfly, or the butterfly dreamed that it was Zhou.

There must be a difference between Zhou and the butterfly.

This is called materialization.”

Wen Yan hadn't read the whole book, but he couldn't have been unaware of the famous story of Zhuang Zhou dreaming of the butterfly.

"Old Heavenly Master, you might as well explain it more clearly. If I can read this most famous book, I can practice something by myself. Then what else do I need to learn?"

"You can't learn it in the normal way, and you can't learn it. You can't even learn the step of letting the Yin Spirit leave the body.

Then I woke up from the dream.

If ordinary people want to learn the methods I have summarized, one of them is a method of letting the soul leave the body, which is related to the method of entering dreams.

If he becomes lucid in a dream and knows that he is in a dream, in this case, he wakes up from the dream.

In addition to waking up directly in bed, there is another possibility, that is, the Yin Spirit jumps out and "wakes up".

Although you don't have a soul, you have your own consciousness and cannot follow the ordinary path.

So there should be no problem in using this method to cultivate and strengthen your self-awareness.

As for where it will go next, I don’t know.

When you have practiced enough, I will teach you the rest of the lesson."

Wen Yan could tell that the old Taoist's method seemed to allow him to benefit from the new method in a roundabout way.

He has no soul, yet he can indeed dream.

And when I fall asleep, it is indeed not my physical body that enters the dream.

Theoretically, even if one fails to cultivate a primordial spirit, it should be no problem to reap the benefits.

He looked at the book in his hand and his mind changed.

"Old Heavenly Master, are there any other books?"

"No, my physical condition is not good. I need to rest more. I don't have the energy to do these. I'll talk about it in a few months."

"Oh, well..."

Wen Yan put the book away, pushed the old Taoist priest in the wheelchair, and continued to move forward.

Just the moment he grasped the two handles at the back of the wheelchair, Wen Yan felt like he was struck by lightning and froze in place.

The people around me disappeared, and I don’t know when the sky turned completely dark. There were no stars or moon in the sky, it was completely black.

The neighborhood was also deathly quiet.

In an instant, Wen Yan suddenly opened his eyes.

His hands were still on the handles at the back of the wheelchair. It was not yet dark and noises could still be heard around him. In the house where the old Taoist priest was going to live temporarily, people were still busy.

He pushed the old Taoist's wheelchair and walked only twenty or thirty meters.

A fine layer of cold sweat suddenly appeared on Wen Yan's back.

when?

When was he pulled into the dream?

He didn't react at all.

Only at this moment did he suddenly recall that when the old master was teaching him, he clearly told him that under normal circumstances, he could tell whether he was dreaming or not.

He even taught him how to wake up.

No wonder he dares to say anything and teach anything so casually, it turns out he is not afraid of others knowing at all.

Finally, he was allowed to experience "awakening" for himself.

The old Taoist priest looked back and saw that Wen Yan looked like he had seen a ghost. He smiled and took out two new-looking books from his arms and handed them to Wen Yan.

"Take it, and study it carefully when you get back. I've marked out all the places where it can be used.

Given your current level, I think you should just ignore the parts that are not marked and take it one step at a time.

Don't let your understanding deviate from the context after reading it.

Some of the parts that you understand may not be the original meaning. "

Wen Yan put away the two books and saw the prices on the back of the books, one was 12.5 and the other was 14. Both were new books printed this year.

He looked around and was a little dazed for a moment.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

So is he awake now? Or is he not awake?

I opened the book and took a look, and sure enough, I saw the same key points.

"Don't be in a daze, push me around the neighborhood, I've never been here before.

Logically, I shouldn't be so close to the intersection.

But I have nowhere to go. I feel at ease somewhere else, but others don’t.

Remember to make something to eat and send me some too."

Wen Yan pushed the old Taoist priest along the path in the community. Whenever they passed a house, if there was someone living there, he would introduce to the old Taoist priest who lived there.

Walked from west to east, then went around to the north, and then walked from east to west, and returned to the old Taoist's temporary residence.

The cleaning was not completely completed, but the living room, kitchen, bathroom and one room on the first floor had all been tidied up. The second floor would be cleaned up slowly, which would not affect the old master's rest on the first floor.

As for the old Taoist's safety, Wen Yan was not worried at all.

After this old man achieved his primordial spirit, he was really too terrifying. He was dragged into a dream but he was unaware of anything. It would be too difficult for others to harm the old master.

Moreover, Wen Yan’s suggestions have not yet listed the old Taoist priest.

Earlier, there was a red exclamation mark as a warning, but now there is not even a warning.

If nothing unexpected happens, the warning will be noticed.

The arrangements at the Lieyang Department are very good. Wen Yan doesn't have to worry about anything. There are professional nurses to take care of the old master's daily life.

After returning home, Wen Yan heated up two buns, one meat and one vegetable, and sent them to the old Taoist priest when he was eating.

The old man doesn't have much to eat now, and the two of them probably can't finish it, so just try it.

The old Taoist priest was eating buns and looking at Wen Yan with a strange expression.

"Your idea is quite different. You rely on eating this kind of buns to determine whether you are dreaming or not. This is quite good. No matter how real the dream is, it is impossible to fully manifest all the truth. The dream interpretation method of eating buns is indeed very useful."

“…”

Wen Yan blinked and said nothing.

I just silently noted down this method.

Since the old Taoist priest said that’s what I think, then that’s what I think!

I will make dumplings at least once a week from now on. I will have to try again later to see if there are other things I cook myself that have the same effect.

He had actually cooked quite a few times himself, and he had never heard of anything that could have such an effect before.

When Wen Yan returned home, the old Taoist ate one bun and didn't dare to eat more. He put the remaining one in the refrigerator and planned to eat it in the evening.

The power of the bun has dissipated a lot, and it is obviously not as good as when it was just out of the pan.

He couldn't understand what Wen Yan did.

After thinking about it, he felt that maybe Wen Yan herself didn't know why.

Wen Yan was in a good mood and cooked at home again.

I kneaded the dough myself and made some handmade noodles, but it was obvious that this thing just didn’t have the effect of making steamed buns. The little zombies didn’t like it, and no one else could eat it either.

Except for cats, cats love to eat everything.

Wen Yan continued to recuperate at home. This was the longest rest time she had ever had.

For half a month, I didn't go anywhere. My daily practice was reduced to one hour a day. The rest of the daily practice time was used to learn what the old master taught.

After practicing for several days, although I didn’t feel anything obvious, my spirits did improve a lot.

Early in the morning, they were digging the soil and planting flowers and plants in the front yard, and Chen Qimo was helping Wen Yan.

The little girl is going to be a senior this year, and she is working very hard. Wen Yan sees that she is working too hard, so she lets her take advantage of the weekend to relax and stop studying every day.

“Is there a university you want to go to?”

"I haven't decided yet, but I want to study medicine, and I also want to study something else."

"It's okay, just take your time to think about it, and you can figure it out by next year.

After all, I have accumulated a lot of merits before. With my merits, my family will definitely receive preferential treatment.

Besides, your grades are pretty good. Just tell me what you want to study when the time comes.

If you don’t want to rely on me and want to take the exam on your own, that’s fine too. It’s up to you.”

Wen Yan had promised her grandmother to take care of her granddaughter, so naturally she prepared all the conditions she could to allow the little girl to do whatever she wanted.

As they were chatting, a notification appeared on Wen Yan's phone.

The situation along the Yangtze River has completely stabilized. The typhoon has passed, and the peak of the rainy season should have also passed.

This also means that the series of impacts brought about by Wen Yuan's previous escape from the dragon have finally been settled, and there will be no major accidents.

But Wen Yan was a little puzzled as to why the Water Official Talisman for Jie Evil had no reaction at all.

He sensed clearly at the time that there would definitely be settlement progress after this matter was over.

No matter how slow the settlement is, it shouldn’t have taken so long for it to appear, right?

Wen Yan was not in a hurry either. He could just wait patiently. He was really not in a hurry now.

After reading these messages, there is another new message.

There was a package that was sent to the Lieyang Tribe. It has been picked up and is expected to be delivered tomorrow.

The sender's name is Lu Jing.

What was sent was a piece of bone with some crystal teeth on it.

Wen Yan was deeply impressed by this girl. It was this girl named Lu Jing who, when something happened, went to the boys' dormitory and stole some original underwear to ward off evil spirits.

Her mother's love for her was stolen. At that time, Wen Yan killed the alien and left behind a thing called the Treasure-Stealing Ghost Bone. When he found that there was still a chance to make up for it, he sent the Treasure-Stealing Ghost Bone to Lu Jing.

It has been a long time, and now Lu Jing suddenly sent the treasure-stealing ghost bone back. Is this making up for what was lost?

Wen Yan asked Black Box and learned that Lu Jing and her daughter were doing well and there were no accidents. The girl went home every week and did not encounter any problems.

After confirming that nothing was wrong, Wen Yan felt relieved and waited to receive the package tomorrow.

If I remember correctly, there seemed to be a prerequisite task regarding additional fixed abilities because of this matter.

At the same time, in the logistics vehicle of the Lieyang Tribe, in a shielded box, on a piece of ghost bone, and mixed in a row of crystal teeth, there were two gray teeth.

One of the gray teeth slowly turned into a crystal tooth.
