Reborn Tianlong: I practice martial arts for immortality

Xiaoyaozi looked at the spiritual spring gurgling beside the house, stood up and sighed, "Perhaps it's time for me to go out for a walk."

Li Canghai was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Master, are you going to deal with Murong Longcheng? But your realm will drop if you leave."

Xiaoyaozi replied, "Don't worry. Although the essence, energy and spirit will still leak out after being smelted into golden liquid, the speed will be much slower. Even if your realm falls, I still have more than ten years to live.

At worst, I can come back here and continue to consolidate my celestial realm. However, if I do so, the spiritual energy here will decrease again, and the spiritual spring may dry up.

As for dealing with Murong Longcheng... let's wait and see."

He has done enough for the Song Dynasty, and the change of dynasties is just a normal thing.

Chapter 348 Soul and Heart

Kunlun Valley.

Half a year has passed since Jiang Weichen entered the [Third Zhoutian] stage and broke through to the Innate Realm.

During the past six months, Jiang Weichen broke through to the peak of the innate realm with the support of countless medicinal liquids and the relatively rich spiritual energy in the valley.

Half a month ago, he had just completed the introductory training of the [Fourth Circulation]. The middle dantian and lower dantian also expanded slightly on the original basis. His cultivation level directly jumped to the peak of the early stage of the Grandmaster, and almost entered the middle stage.

His energy and spirit grew again, the Qi in the middle Dantian was as thick as fog, and the essence in the lower Dantian was already as big as a plum.

The green lotus phantom of the Green Lotus Visualization Method can now last for half an hour, which has doubled the time.

With the help of the Sword Spirit, Jiang Weichen estimated that his combat power was stronger than Murong Bo, who was in the late Grandmaster stage.

At that time, he broke through the fifth level of the innate realm, which was equivalent to the middle stage of the grandmaster, before he could fight Murong Bo.

However, the subsequent cultivation was slow. The opening of 720 acupoints required too much energy. Even though he had collected so many medicinal herbs, it would take time to absorb them slowly.

Moreover, the entry level of the [Fourth Week] uses medicinal herbs with a hundred-year efficacy. Nowadays, ordinary medicinal herbs are useful for his cultivation, but the improvement is much smaller. Medicinal herbs with a hundred-year efficacy are needed to make rapid progress.

Medicinal herbs with a hundred-year efficacy are already quite scarce, and the ones we have collected now may not be enough to cultivate to the peak of the Grandmaster level.

The clouds are light and the wind is gentle, the sky is high and the clouds are vast, and the daily practice is over.

Jiang Weichen was reading Taoist classics as usual, and what he was holding in his hand was the "Commentary on the Tao Te Ching".

The Tao Te Ching is divided into the Book of Virtue and the Book of Dao. Jiang Weichen studied more of the Book of Dao, and now he is looking at the difference between the primordial spirit and the conscious spirit.

The book says: "After birth, the primordial spirit and the conscious spirit merge into one. Sometimes the primordial spirit takes charge and the conscious spirit retreats; sometimes the conscious spirit takes charge and the primordial spirit disappears.

In short, that which emerges without thought or concern is the primordial spirit; that which emerges from the physical body with thought and understanding is the consciousness spirit. The primordial spirit comes from nothingness, while the consciousness spirit emerges from the physical body.

Sometimes I watch, sometimes I close my eyes and think, and sometimes I recall what is said in "Taiyi Jinhua Zongzhi". The primordial spirit is also called the light of nature. It is ignorant, insensitive and without distinction, just like a mirror that reflects without intention.

The consciousness is also called the light of consciousness. After a person is born, the light of nature sinks and the light of consciousness is born. Consciousness means knowledge and learning. For example, if a person is burned by fire, he will not touch fire again. This is the function of the consciousness.

The primordial spirit is innate, ignorant and insensitive. It exists naturally after the human foetus is formed. After a person dies, it is also the basis for reincarnation.

The consciousness is born after birth, resides in the lower mind, has knowledge and feelings, and produces fear, joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, and the seven emotions and six desires. The actions of all parts of the body are controlled by the consciousness.

Based on his own understanding, Jiang Weichen felt that the primordial spirit was actually the soul.

The conscious mind is actually the heart, which controls all human actions, thoughts, ideas, etc.

Before a person is born, the primordial spirit is in charge, but after birth, the conscious spirit is born and controls everything, while the primordial spirit is completely hidden in the body.

The primordial spirit is too illusory and ethereal to be touched. Perhaps one has to wait until he breaks through to the Grandmaster level before he can even touch it.

The consciousness is the mind, which can grow through learning, experience, and hearing, or through visualization to remove distracting thoughts and purify the mind.

To break through to the Grandmaster level, one needs the spiritual power, true essence, and vital essence nurtured in the Jiqiao acupoint to break through the Niwan Palace.

When the Niwan Palace opens, the spiritual consciousness is born. The spiritual consciousness should be the product of the soul's growth and fusion with the spiritual power nurtured by the acupoints. It can look inward at itself and outward at the world, and comprehend the world. Therefore, once the Niwan Palace opens, the understanding will increase.

For a grandmaster's practice, accumulating true essence is one aspect, but strengthening spiritual consciousness is the key. Only when the essence, energy and spirit are strengthened to a certain degree can one use the artistic conception as a guide to refine the three into golden liquid, and only then can one enter the realm of heaven and man.

However, there seems to be no special method of inheritance for the cultivation of spiritual consciousness in this world. It can only grow slowly by relying on the grinding of time or the feedback from the strengthening of essence and true energy.

Either method is time-consuming and it is impossible to make quick progress.

Jiang Weichen frowned. His cultivation had always been relatively fast, and he didn't want to become as slow as a turtle after breaking through to the Grandmaster level.

Jiang Weichen murmured, "When the True Essence and Essence grow stronger, they can feed back and strengthen the soul. But what about the mind? Both belong to the "Shen" in the "Essence, Energy and Spirit", but one is born from the innate and the other is acquired. Can the acquired enhance the innate?"

The method of visualization is actually to cultivate the mind, purify the thoughts, and strengthen the soul.

Now his spiritual realm has reached the state of meditation. After meditating and entering into meditation, he can also look inward at his own body, which is equivalent to the state of seeing gods in martial arts.

But he could never reach the next level. Jiang Weichen guessed that it was because his mental power was not strong enough.

If his spiritual cultivation was stronger and he reached the fetal breathing state, perhaps the benefits to his soul would be much stronger than his essence and true essence.

If his spiritual realm far exceeds his cultivation level, perhaps even after entering the Grandmaster stage, his consciousness can be nourished by the power of his mind, thus growing rapidly and achieving breakthroughs quickly.

But how can we strengthen the power of our mind and then control the gods in our body to reach the state of fetal breathing with ease?

Jiang Weichen had no idea, but the power of the mind, namely consciousness, could be increased through acquired knowledge and experience, and he could gain new insights. Perhaps he should go out for a walk.

Chinese martial arts are divided into bright, dark, transformation, elixir, gang, and god, but that is the realm division without spiritual energy.

Now, he combines his internal energy training with traditional Chinese martial arts. Although he has only mastered the Hua Jin and has not figured out the Dan Jin, he can control the Qi and blood into a Gang, and through visualization he can look inside his body, which is equivalent to seeing a god.

Maybe seeing and being able to control are two different things. He can control his hands and feet, hair, qi and blood, true energy, etc., but he cannot control the activities of cells throughout the body. Ultimately, it is because he lacks mental strength.

Chinese martial arts place the most emphasis on spiritual enlightenment, and boxing has three levels: seeing oneself, seeing the world, and seeing all living beings.

Since traveling through time, Jiang Weichen has been either practicing or killing people. He has not really calmed down to travel around the world and meet all the living beings.

Now his cultivation has reached the peak of the early Grandmaster stage. His cultivation speed has slowed down a lot since then, and he has also gained some ability to protect himself. Perhaps he can change his identity and go out to travel.

"Brother, it's time to eat. Why do you always like to be in a daze after practicing every day?" Chunhua shouted when he saw that his brother was just distracted and not having the sudden enlightenment like last time.

Jiang Weichen came back to his senses and walked into the house. Chunhua called Wang Zhaohui and Qiu Ruhua to come together.

As soon as Wang Zhaohui came in, he excitedly said, "Alliance Leader, I have found the Qi sensation. Can I start over from now on?"

Chunhua and Qiu Ruhua have both cultivated the Nirvana Sutra to the second level, and their realm has also entered the innate realm. He also needs to hurry up.

Jiang Weichen frowned. Although he had now broken through to the Grandmaster level and no longer needed Wang Chaohui's protection, he was planning to go out for a walk. The Supreme Alliance needed Wang Chaohui's combat power.

Even if he passed on his life's skills to other gang members, there would inevitably be losses in the process, and his skills would also be consumed during adaptation, so his realm would inevitably be lowered.

"Wait a few more years. The Supreme Alliance needs your fighting power now. Once I break through to the Grandmaster level, you can start cultivating again. Don't worry, there are plenty of low-level medicinal herbs now. With the support of resources, your cultivation speed will not fall behind in the early stages."

Wang Zhaohui nodded. Everything he had was given by the alliance leader, so naturally he would not refute it.

Three days later, Jiang Weichen led the three out of Kunlun Valley and came to the village at the foot of Ziyun Peak.

Wang Tiedan lives in the village. He disguises himself and lives in the village to observe the changes on the mountain.

When he saw Jiang Weichen, he was about to kneel down. Jiang Weichen extended his hand to support him and said, "Respect and loyalty do not need to be expressed by kneeling. Those who kneel are not necessarily loyal, and those who do not kneel are not necessarily disloyal."

Wang Tiedan finally gave up and bowed, saying, "I pay my respects to the leader."

Then he bowed to Chunhua and the others and said, "Greetings to the hall masters."

The difference was self-evident. Chunhua and the other two didn't care about it. Instead, they felt that the leader had made the right choice by letting them come down the mountain.

Jiang Weichen nodded and asked, "Is there anything unusual on Ziyun Peak? Has there been any changes in the alliance recently?"

Wang Tiedan replied respectfully, "There's nothing unusual on Ziyun Peak, but three or four months ago a woman came here, calling herself Li Canghai."

Jiang Weichen was stunned. Li Canghai, the mysterious woman who had never appeared in this plot finally appeared. Was she here to avenge the Xiaoyao Sect?

"Is she still on the mountain now?" Jiang Weichen asked.

If Li Canghai was still on the mountain, he would have gone traveling around the world and would not have returned to Ziyun Peak.

Wang Tiedan shook his head and said, "Alliance leader, she has been gone for more than three months. Before she left, she left a message: Xiaoyao Sect is not so easy to bully, and she will be back.

However, he later appeared in Bianliang to stop Murong Longcheng from restoring his country, but was severely injured by Murong Longcheng and disappeared.

It turned out that he was here to get revenge. Fortunately, I was cautious. After Chu Tiange left, I didn't let Wang Zhaohui come out again.

Originally, Wang Tiedan was asked to stay at the foot of the mountain to find out the situation on the mountain, so that Wang Zhaohui could come out to get the medicine later and avoid running into a great master like Chu Tiange like last time.

But now that Jiang Weichen is going out to travel, he naturally can’t use it.

However, Murong Longcheng has already reached Bianliang?

Chapter 349: Caring about the world?

Inside the room, Jiang Weichen was stunned for a long time after listening to Wang Tiedan's story. The Song Dynasty fell? Is my influence so great?

The Song Dynasty lasted for more than 300 years. Even if we don't count the Southern Song Dynasty, the Northern Song Dynasty still had 40 years of life. How could it be destroyed now?

Chu Tiange died in the battle, Taoist Qingyun was crippled, Zhang Ziyang was also crippled, Xiang Kui had one arm blown off, and Li Canghai escaped with serious injuries.

Five grand masters failed to stop Murong Longcheng. Murong Longcheng shouldn’t be so strong, right?

I fought against him when I came to Kunlun Mountain. Although I was not his opponent, he was really not that strong.

When they were in Shaoshi Mountain, Chu Tiange did not take him down and once warned him. The meaning of his words was very clear. Xiang Kui was obviously stronger than Chu Tiange.

But why can't Xiang Kui, Zhang Ziyang, and the mysterious Li Canghai defeat Murong Longcheng?

Taoist Qingyun was disabled, and Jiang Weichen was a little annoyed, but fortunately he was not dead. When he broke through, he might be able to cure Taoist Qingyun.

Murong Longcheng successfully restored his country with unmatched military force. His cultivation or combat power should have been greatly enhanced.

Jiang Weichen felt that he should secretly go to the territory of the Song Dynasty to take a look.

The Murong family has a grudge against him. Murong Longcheng failed to capture him last time, and he was not strong enough, so he did not retaliate against Murong Bo and his son, and the two sides did not invade each other.

But now Murong Longcheng has become powerful, and who knows when he will deal with me.

He also wanted to go see Taoist Qingyun and see the changes in the world during this period.

After all, this place is too far away from the Song Dynasty, and the transmission of information is a bit delayed. I didn't make any special instructions, and no one told me every detail.

Jiang Weichen pondered for a long time and then said, "Let's go up the mountain."

In half a month, Jiang Weichen modified and simplified the Infinite Heart Sutra and passed it on to the gang members for practice. From then on, it became the practice method for ordinary gang members.

These ordinary gang members have cultivated to perfection after the formation of the later stage. If they cannot find the sense of Qi, they can use the method of absorbing Qi to receive the power of the core disciples.

The core disciples practiced Jiang Weichen's newly created [Nirvana Sutra], which was a culmination of all his martial arts collection.

[Nirvana Sutra] Each major realm requires a complete rebuilding to accumulate foundation. Each time, although most of the power is used to nourish the body, there is still a small amount of impure power that needs to be discarded.

These abolished skills are just passed on to ordinary disciples who cannot find the Qi.
