The Japanese-fear sorcerer who started by taking in Tomie

Chapter 77 First Taste of Spiritual Power (Third Update, Seeking First Subscription)

The way of cultivation is to use the body as a cauldron and the qi as fire.

First, concentrate your mind and focus on the dantian (lower abdomen), visualizing the three lights within your body: essence as moonlight, qi as sunlight, and spirit as starlight.

When the three lights are bright, guide the Qi along the meridians, starting from Yongquan (KI 1), passing through the three gates, opening the nine orifices, and returning to Dantian (lower abdomen).

When the three treasures of essence, energy, and spirit are united, spiritual power will naturally arise. At first, it is as faint as a firefly, but over time it will become as vast as a river.

If you hold fast to one principle and never falter, you can build a foundation in a hundred days, achieve minor success in a thousand days, and hope for longevity in ten thousand days.

Avoid being impatient and restless; instead, remain calm and inactive, and follow the natural course of things. Only then can you glimpse the gate to the Great Way.

Xin Hengyuan sat cross-legged on the bed, looking at the characters on the tortoise shell countless times. Finally, he slowly closed his eyes and tried to cultivate according to the method described on it.

However, they got stuck at the very first step.

"Focusing your mind on the dantian" is not difficult. In my previous life, I studied medicine and was very familiar with the structure of the human body. By concentrating my mind on the area three inches below the navel, I quickly felt the energy sinking to the dantian.

However, the next step, "visualizing the three lights within the body," completely blocked the new source of energy.

Essence is the moon's radiance, vital energy is the sun's light, and spirit is the starlight's glow.

-

Where are the Three Lights?

He closed his eyes and looked inward for a long time, but all he could see was darkness, except for the faint light coming in through his eyelids.

Forget about sunlight, moonlight, and starlight; we didn't even see a tiny speck of light, no bigger than a firefly's bottom.

"Does this thing require any prerequisites?" Xin Hengyuan opened his eyes, staring at the ancient characters on the tortoise shell with a puzzled look.

He felt like he was in a situation where he had found a game that was supposedly good and couldn't wait to start playing, only to discover that there was no tutorial.

New Hengyuan: Oh no!

Xin Hengyuan then mobilized his spiritual power to sense himself, only to feel the magic power flowing through his meridians.

Shin Heng Yuan couldn't be said to know nothing about San Guang, but he was basically clueless about it.

The Qi Induction Technique and magic power are two completely different systems. Furthermore, magic power is not something Xin Hengyuan cultivated on his own. Magic power originates from his bloodline, not something he cultivated himself. Therefore, there is no way to apply it to other systems.

Xin Hengyuan focused his attention on his dantian again. What was there? Nothing. Or rather, it seemed to be a chaotic void.

Then Xinhengyuan tried to imagine that place as a piece of soil, and then imagined the inscription on the tortoise shell, and in the corresponding sky, he imagined three beams of light.

The cool moonlight, the blazing sunlight, the deep starlight.

That's what Xinhengyuan was thinking.

After waiting for about three minutes, nothing happened. Xin Hengyuan was not giving up and waited for another three minutes, but still nothing happened.

Xin Hengyuan opened his eyes, expressionless, and flipped the tortoise shell over to check if there were any missing characters on the back, wondering if he had missed something.

Otherwise, how come nothing happened?

Unfortunately, there's nothing on the back.

Xin Hengyuan was still unwilling to give up, and kept changing his posture, from sitting cross-legged to kneeling, from kneeling to sitting upright, and even tried to lie down and focus his mind on his dantian, but he almost fell asleep.

"Concentrate your mind inward, focus your attention on the dantian—visualize the three lights—"

Xin Hengyuan lay on the bed, his eyes vacant, and muttered the mantra again.

"Use your body as a cauldron, and your breath as fire—and so on."

Xin Hengyuan then realized what was happening and sat up abruptly. He used his body as a cauldron, his dantian as the cauldron, and his qi as the furnace fire. When the three qi were combined, they became the furnace fire.

This may be the true starting point of the Qi-inducing technique.

But how can these three elements be combined? And how should the furnace fire be lit? The tortoise shell only describes the result, not the process.

New Hengyuan hasn't even found Sanguang yet.

The three luminaries are essence, energy, and spirit. Essence is the foundation of life, energy is the life force, and spirit is human consciousness.

Refining essence into qi, refining qi into spirit, and refining spirit into emptiness—these three processes progress step by step and none can be omitted.

As he pondered these thoughts, Xin Hengyuan felt as if he were divinely inspired, and these insights naturally surfaced in his mind, as if someone were whispering teachings in his ear.

The relic that Xin Hengyuan had been carrying in his pocket slowly began to glow on its own.

The dantian is the cauldron; when the three energies unite, they become fire!

After readjusting his mind and body, Xin Hengyuan seemed to finally see those three beams of light before his eyes.

A small figure slowly condensed in the dantian, its entire body radiating a cool moonlight; it was the embodiment of essence. Immediately afterward, a second small figure appeared, its body shimmering with golden light; it was the embodiment of qi. Finally, a third small figure quietly emerged, its body adorned with starlight; it was the embodiment of a god.

The three little figures sat side by side, seemingly keeping to themselves.

Shinheng slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of stale air. "I guess we've made some progress now."

At least, they successfully sensed the three luminaries of essence, energy, and spirit.

Xin Hengyuan couldn't wait to open his attribute panel. He had just noticed the changes in his body while he was comprehending.

【Five Rings: Great Divine Mantra - Revealing the Truth】

"Frog Fun!" Xin Hengyuan stared wide-eyed in shock. Before he could even process the impact of the all-attribute boost, he discovered that a brand new trait had appeared on his class panel!

【Spiritual Vortex 5/5: You generate an energy called spiritual power within your body. When you cast spells, you can mix spiritual power with them to enhance the power of your spells.】

I have just comprehended 5 points of spiritual power, which means that I can enhance spells up to the fourth ring. How powerful will the enhanced spells be?

Xin Hengyuan pinched his chin, pondered for a moment, and then decisively stood up.

Go try it now.

"Eight feet—!"

In the courtyard, Xinhengyuan and Bachi stand facing each other.

Tomie and Kiyotsuki sat on the steps to the side, adopting a spectator's posture.

"Eight feet, be careful," Shin Hengyuan warned.

Ba Chi just smiled and waved his hand casually: "Little one, don't worry, come on."

"Alright! Magic Missile!"

Xin Hengyuan gripped the wooden carving of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva tightly in his hand, and three scarlet force field darts instantly condensed and sped toward Ba Chi with a whooshing sound.

Ba Chi neither dodged nor avoided the three darts, letting them hit him squarely.

The dart only tore her outer clothing, leaving a few shallow white marks on her skin, without even a trace of blood.

The damage can be basically determined to be 0.

Eight feet tilted his head and said in a relaxed tone, "It's alright."

"How about we try this! Spirit Vortex - Magic Missile!"

This time, Xin Hengyuan tried to extract a ray of light from each of the three small figures sitting cross-legged in his dantian.

The moonlight, sunlight, and starlight converged into a milky-white spiritual power, which was then infused into the magic.

The magic instantly boiled over, becoming incredibly violent.

The dart that was formed also changed drastically. Fine golden lightning crackled within the scarlet light, and its speed was much faster than before.

The air was torn apart, producing a sharp whistling sound.

The moment it hit the target eight feet away, a violent explosion rang out.

One explosion! Two explosions! Three explosions!

Three explosions followed in quick succession, sending shockwaves surging and dust billowing through the courtyard. Even Xin Hengyuan himself was so startled by the power that he took a half-step back before regaining his footing.

When the smoke cleared, Hachi was still standing in the same spot, but when she looked down at the charred skin on her arm caused by the explosion, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"That's interesting—"
