Chapter 209 Dharma Cultivation and Physical Cultivation (two chapters in one)

Chapter 209 Dharma Cultivation and Physical Cultivation (two chapters in one)

Only by constantly summarizing past experience, learning new knowledge at the same time, and combining it with a lot of practical exercises can we make great progress in alchemy.

Liu Yu was writing in the alchemy manual, stopping from time to time to lower his head and meditate. In the blink of an eye, three or four hours passed before he finally put the alchemy manual into his storage bag.

There was a smile on his face, and he felt sincerely that the trip was worthwhile.

Due to the advantages of the Immortal Mansion and his own talent, his progress in the alchemy path is much faster than that of ordinary monks, which is simply shocking to the world.

In just about twenty years, pills like Qingyuan Pill can be refined, and the difficulty of refining them is no less difficult than ordinary mid-stage foundation-building pills.

Therefore, I can only study alone and dare not ask other monks for advice easily to avoid other monks noticing the speed of my progress.

Even if there is something you don't understand, you can only go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to find the answer.

But the Sutra Pavilion is a dead thing after all, and the knowledge recorded is not that comprehensive, and there are still many doubts that cannot be answered.

The Green Bamboo Alchemy Sutra came at the right time. This is a complete set of alchemy inheritance. Although it is not particularly top-notch, for Liu Yu, it was like rain after a long drought, making him eager to absorb the knowledge and theories. .

This was exactly the knowledge he lacked and needed, which greatly enriched his knowledge of alchemy, allowing him to take a solid step toward becoming a master of alchemy.

After laughing for a while, Liu Yu suppressed her smile and carefully felt the situation inside her body.

The black liquid formed by the ball of Requiem Grass in his belly has been exhausted, and at the same time, the special spiritual energy formed by the blood-dissolving pill in the flesh has also been almost consumed.

Liu Yu himself has eight drops of blood essence. He used the secret technique of "Sacrifice Blood Escape" to refine the sharp gold sword, which consumed two drops of blood essence and left only six drops.

At this time, five months have passed since the sacrifice. With the help of the Hemolytic Pill, the blood essence has been restored to seven drops, and most of the remaining one drop has been restored. It will take less than a month to fully recover.

This is thanks to the dragon blood fruit. This fruit can not only be used as the main medicine of the hemolytic elixir, but also can slightly increase the strength of the physical body when eaten raw.

Previously, due to the consumption of essence and blood, the body has been in a weak state, so it is not suitable to take this fruit.

But now, most of it has been recovered. Once fully recovered, you can take this fruit to strengthen your physical body, Qi and blood.

Although immortal cultivators mainly focus on refining Qi, they can even give up their physical bodies when they reach a certain level, relying on their soul to travel around the world and live forever.

But it is obviously not possible in low realms. The soul is still in its embryonic state and has not been completely formed. It is like a baby being gestated and cannot exist alone without the physical body.

It cannot withstand the scorching sun and the blowing wind. If it is exposed for more than a certain period of time, it will disappear directly.

Therefore, before cultivating to a certain level, the physical body and the soul are tied together. If one party dies, the other one will also die.

Since the physical body is so important, Liu Yu must of course strengthen it as much as possible to improve his own safety if he has sufficient resources.

He had also read several Taoist books in his previous life, and quite agreed with some of the statements about the cultivation of both life and life.

Many people believe that the soul is too fragile to exist alone and can only be placed on the physical body. It is best for the two to go hand in hand, and it is also more conducive to the pursuit of eternal life.

What's more, there is also a saying of "physical cultivation" in this world. After cultivating to a high level, it is said that one can resist magic weapons with bare hands, and he was once powerful.

There is also the "Dual Cultivation of Dharma and Body" method, which involves cultivating both mana and body at the same time, combining the strengths of both paths, and the strength far exceeds that of monks of the same level.

It's just that after the ancient war a million years ago, the concentration of spiritual energy in the entire world of cultivating immortals began to decline. Resources for cultivating immortals gradually became scarce, and physical cultivation that required more resources was gradually eliminated.

Until now, the monks of "Physical Cultivation" and "Dharma-Physical Cultivation" have almost disappeared, and the mainstream of the world of immortality is dominated by "Dharma Cultivation" who use magic weapons and magic weapons to cast spells.

Many thoughts flashed through Liu Yu's mind, and she couldn't help but sigh slightly, with some regrets in her heart.

He has the Immortal Mansion in hand and sufficient resources for cultivating immortals. He is originally very suitable for developing in the direction of "dual cultivation of law and body" with powerful combat power. He has long had the idea of ​​​​this aspect.

Unfortunately, this kind of dual cultivation method of body and law is very rare. He has only seen relevant descriptions in classics. He has never heard of or seen anyone practicing dual cultivation of law and body in Chu State.

In the usual sense, the top-level exercises refer to the exercises of legal cultivation, not the methods of dual cultivation of legal body and physical body. The exercises of dual cultivation of legal body and legal body are even rarer and seem to have disappeared long ago in Chu State.

Theoretically speaking, Liu Yu's best choice is to cultivate both body and law, so that he can maximize the advantages of the Immortal Mansion.

But how can things in the world be as perfect as one wishes? He had no way to search, and it was impossible not to improve his strength and focus on a search that might be fruitless. In the end, he could only give up the idea.

Shaking her head, Liu Yu took out three books that recorded Qingyang Gong, Shen Shen Miao Technique, and Hidden Spirit Technique, and began to comprehend.

At present, more than 90% of the contents of the fifth level of foundation building of Qingyang Kung have been understood, and the last remaining point is estimated to only take one or two years to be fully understood.

After all, Liu Yu's knowledge today is not the same as when he first established the foundation.

The comprehension of Qingyang Gong went smoothly, but the comprehension of the Golden Elixir Chapter of the Mysterious Dharma did not go smoothly. There was very little progress, which can almost be said to be almost non-existent.

When Liu Yu understood it, he only found it obscure and difficult to understand. Some passages were completely incomprehensible. He could not find any classics to explain them and could not ask other monks for advice.

However, ordinary foundation-building monks may not have as much knowledge about souls as he does, so it would be in vain to ask.

So I can only explore this aspect slowly by myself. Fortunately, there is still a long way to go before the golden elixir stage, and there is no rush to understand the golden elixir chapter of the Presence of Divine Wonders.

Liu Yu believes that as long as he continues to accumulate knowledge about Yuanshen, there will always be a time when he will fully understand it.

Finally, there is the magic of concealment. This secret skill has been acquired by him for the longest time and has been mastered in his hands for the longest time.

The third level of the secret technique can very well converge cultivation and spiritual pressure. It is said that even a higher realm cannot see through it. So with Liu Yu's cultivation level in the foundation stage, it stands to reason that even the golden elixir stage monks can't see through it.

Of course, this is not necessarily the case for monks with special spiritual eyes and magical powers, and since there is such a secret technique, there must be a secret technique for this kind of secret technique.

Liu Yu had reservations about the wild claim that the third level of perfection could be hidden from monks of a higher realm, but it was undeniable that ordinary golden elixir monks were indeed unable to detect abnormalities.

The hidden spirit technique can also adjust the revealed cultivation level, but it can only be adjusted downward and cannot exceed one's true cultivation level.

He has now reached the third level of cultivation, and has understood 99% of the content. He believes that in another ten to twenty years, he will be able to complete his cultivation and completely master this secret technique that is extremely convenient for walking in the world of immortality.

…

Swallow a Qingyuan Pill every day and spend three hours practicing Qingyang Gong.

Then take the requiem grass and practice the magic method of preserving the spirit three times, which takes an hour and a half.

It takes one hour to comprehend the Qingyang Gong, the Mystical Technique of Preserving the Gods, and the Hidden Spirit Technique, one hour to comprehend the Green Bamboo Alchemy Sutra, and half an hour to read the spiritual grass.

There are twelve hours in a day, and nine hours passed like this.

In the remaining three hours, Liu Yu would occasionally refine one or two batches of elixirs, warm up a few useful magic weapons and spiritual weapons, and practice and familiarize himself with foundation-building spells.

At the same time, he did not forget to take care of the spiritual herbs and elixirs in the Immortal Mansion. Dozens of the spiritual herbs needed to refine the Qingyuan Pill have been ripened and kept in the Immortal Mansion.

Thirty of the dragon blood fruits produced by the dragon blood tree, which are spiritual fruits that are used to strengthen the physical body, are temporarily placed in the Immortal Mansion.

Practicing reading, farming and refining elixirs, every day I know a little more than the day before, and every day I am stronger than the day before.

Such days of hard training behind closed doors are happy and fulfilling, with mana and spiritual consciousness going hand in hand, and the pleasure it brings is three points better than applauding for love, making the monks unable to help but indulge in it and not want to leave.

In this way, a month passed slowly.

Wangyue City, south courtyard, practice room.

Liu Yu sat cross-legged on the futon, her eyes closed and her brows slightly furrowed, and beads of sweat appeared on her temples.

At a certain moment, the eyes that had been closed for a long time suddenly opened, and a bright light flashed in the dark pupils.

This is already the third time today to practice the Mystical Method of Preserving God. The completion of this practice means that today's practice is over.

After getting the Requiem Grass, not only the number of times of daily practice of Cun Shen Miao Fa increased from once to three times, but the practice effect was also slightly improved.

At this time, the range of spiritual consciousness has improved significantly compared to before, and it has increased by two to three feet in one month.

If calculated this way, in another five or six years, his consciousness will be able to reach the limit of six miles in the middle stage of foundation establishment.

Liu Yu smiled slightly, restrained the desire to continue practicing, stood up and walked towards the door.

He walked to the wooden bench next to the stone table in the hall and sat down, took out a black porcelain bottle from the storage bag, and uncorked the bottle to reveal the turbid liquid inside.

Liu Yu frowned. Although the effect of this disguising liquid, which was slightly formulated according to the requirements of magic cultivation, was very good, no matter how many times it was used, it still felt a little nauseating.

Holding back his nausea, under the observation of his spiritual consciousness, he evenly applied the spiritual liquid inside to his face.

After a while, Liu Yu's original appearance was changed and he transformed into a monk with dark skin, thick eyebrows and big eyes.

This appearance is even more ordinary than before, just like an old man pushing a cart in the secular world. He is not conspicuous at all in the crowd.

Even Jiang Qiushui, who was most familiar with him, would never be able to recognize him from his appearance, let alone other monks.

After the difficulty was over, he took back the invisible spirit technique that he had maintained at all times, and the cultivation aura and spiritual pressure around him suddenly increased a lot, reaching the level not far from the peak of the early stage of foundation building.

The appearance and cultivation are all different from the original, making it difficult for others to associate with the original identity.

Liu Yu's consciousness scanned his whole body up and down, and after confirming that there were no flaws, he changed into a green shirt, and then left the attic.

Walking to the edge of the formation of the cave, he opened his consciousness to scan the situation around the cave. When no monks passed by, he quickly left the courtyard.

There was no strange color on Liu Yu's face, her heart was calm, and she walked towards Dongshi without knowing whether it was a ghost or not.

Since the current annual consumption is so large, there is no need to keep the low-level cultivation resources worth five thousand spirit stones harvested from the Huang family. It is better to exchange them for spirit stones as soon as possible.

It is obviously inappropriate for someone with a level of cultivation in the early stage of foundation building to take out five thousand spiritual stones at once. Even ordinary monks in the late stage of foundation building would hardly be able to do this.

If you take it out rashly, you might be thought of as a demonic cultivator who kills people and seizes treasures, thus attracting attention.

Although the five major sects of Chu State are neutral and will not be biased because they are demon cultivators, killing weak monks to seize treasures at will undoubtedly destroys order, which is not allowed by the five major sects.

Therefore, demonic cultivators who disrupt order will be hunted down by the five major sects, and will be severely punished as soon as they are discovered. If Liu Yu is mistaken for that kind of demonic cultivator, he will inevitably be in a lot of trouble.

With his always cautious character, he naturally had a way to deal with it. Before leaving, he divided the resources into three parts. Each part was only worth more than a thousand spiritual stones. This made it much more normal.

His current persona is that of a senior foundation-building monk, with a few low-grade storage bags hanging around his waist. There must be no idiot who is not discerning enough to offend a foundation-building monk for this.

The pace was neither fast nor slow. Half a quarter of an hour later, Liu Yu was already standing at the entrance of the most prosperous East Market in Wangyue City.

Two steps further is the busiest street in Dongshi. Standing at the entrance, you can already see the grand scene of that street clearly.

"Duobao Pavilion", "Qianfu Pavilion", "Danxiang Pavilion", "Tiangong Store"

On the busiest street, the first and second shops on the left are Duobao Pavilion and Qianfu Pavilion, while the first and second shops on the right are Danxianglou and Tiangong Shop.

The monks in the four shops are constantly coming and going, and their cultivation and demeanor are faintly better than those of the monks who go in and out of other shops.

Being able to stand in the best location also illustrates the strength of these four stores.

However, Liu Yu came here mainly to dispose of low-level immortal cultivation resources, and then see if there is anything he needs, such as foundation-building elixirs and body-training techniques.

Naturally, there was no need to go to these big shops, so I just looked at them calmly and then withdrew my gaze and headed towards another street.

Wangyue City is the largest gathering place for immortal cultivators thousands of miles away. The level of immortal cultivation is much higher than that of Jiataifang City, which Liu Yu is familiar with. The cultivation level of the monks coming and going in the East City is generally above the middle stage of Qi refining period, and very few are in the early stage of Qi refining stage.

However, the cultivation level of the Foundation Establishment Stage is still the "senior master" here, and from time to time, juniors from the Qi Refining Stage come towards me and say hello in a low voice.

Liu Yu kept walking with an expressionless face, and did not take a second look at these juniors who were saluting.

The number of foundation-building monks in Wangyue City is much greater than that in Jiatai, and occasionally there will be other foundation-building monks coming towards them.

But most of the two sides kept a certain distance, glanced at each other coldly, and then passed each other with a little vigilance.

Liu Yu has been here twice and has a relatively clear understanding of the general layout and store distribution of Dongshi. At this time, based on the impression in his memory, he walked into a medium-sized store.

About tea time passed, and under the warm hospitality of the store owner, he walked out again. There were already more than a thousand and hundreds of spiritual stones in his storage bag.

Following the same pattern, Liu Yu left this street and found a shop of similar size seven or eight streets away. He sold a second low-level immortal cultivation resource and successfully received more than a thousand spiritual stones.

There was only the third low-level immortal cultivation resource left. Liu Yu did not continue to sell it on this street and left here directly.

He cautiously walked another seven or eight streets and entered a shop called "Jiapinju".

I just didn't expect that I would encounter a different situation this time.
