Chapter 18: Practicing the technique, cleansing the essence and marrow, and transforming oneself

After Wu Tong returned to the college, it was already afternoon and approaching dusk. He did not return to the dormitory, but came to the back mountain of the college.

The back mountain at dusk was gently embraced by a touch of gentle afterglow, showing an indescribable tranquility and peace. The sky was as gorgeous as a palette, gradually changing from orange-red in the west to deep blue in the east. The clouds were dyed with gold edges by the sunset, as if they were the most exquisite handicrafts of nature.

Under the reflection of the sunset, the outline of the mountains became soft and warm, as if covered with a thin layer of golden gauze. The branches and leaves of the trees swayed gently in the breeze, casting mottled shadows, interweaving with the fallen leaves on the ground into a vivid picture. The fallen leaves covered the path, and every step echoed the years, which was the trace left by time here.

At this time, the air in the back mountain was filled with a faint scent of grass and soil, which made people involuntarily take a deep breath and feel this gift from nature. In the distance, perhaps you can hear the gurgling sound of a mountain stream, which is crisp and pleasant, like the sound of nature, adding a bit of vitality and vigor to this empty dusk.

Wu Tong walked to the top of the mountain and found a tree. Looking at the tall tree in front of him, Wu Tong nodded.

"Let's do it here. According to the data, the Shaoyang Chapter of the Chilun Sutra cannot absorb the essence of the sun around noon. The essence of the sun at that time is too scorching. Once absorbed, I will be burned to ashes. Only in the early morning and evening is the best time to practice the Shaoyang Chapter. Now is the right time."

Wu Tong muttered to himself while concentrating his soul power and hitting the ground. The pure soul power rushed out of his body, driving the trajectory of the wind, causing a breeze to wrap around Wu Tong's hand. Following Wu Tong's wishes, the wind swayed his body and rolled up the dust, weeds and fallen leaves deposited on the ground.

Wu Tong controlled the soul power, and with a light wave of his hand, the garbage on the ground flew towards the steep cliff next to him.

Wu Tong did not disdain the exposed brown soil on the ground. He sat on the cleaned ground and began to practice the Red Wheel Sutra.

As the Red Wheel Sutra was practiced, Wu Tong closed his eyes and concentrated his mind. His breath gradually became long. His body seemed to have a subtle resonance with the energy between heaven and earth. The energy around him surged like a tide.

With every breath Wu Tong took, the air around him seemed to tremble. A ray of sunlight from the sky began to penetrate the clouds. The light red sunlight shone on Wu Tong's body. The 720 acupoints in Wu Tong's body began to emit a faint glow.

These acupoints may be difficult to detect in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of Wu Tong, the creator of the law, they are as bright as stars, flashing with dazzling light.

As the sun set, these acupoints seemed to be awakened and began to rotate slowly, like a miniature vortex, attracting the power of the sun and the surrounding energy. The two energies merged together in the air and became a weakened version of the power of the sun after dilution - the power of Shaoyang. As the Red Wheel Sutra continued to run, the power of Shaoyang was continuously absorbed into Wu Tong's body.

After being refined, the power of Shaoyang slowly flowed through the meridians, as docile as a sheep, as waving an arm; and the energy running in the meridians was like a warm stream of water, majestic and pure, without the slightest burning feeling, but made Wu Tong feel like he was taking a hot spring bath.

Wu Tong's skin began to gradually become crystal clear, as if covered by a thin layer of gold gauze, which was a sign that the excess power of the sun condensed outside his body.

The excess power of the sun condensed on the surface of the body, constantly tempering Wu Tong's skin, flesh and bones, and the impurities in the body were refined by the power of the sun and began to be discharged through the pores.

As dots of black and red impurities emerged from Wu Tong's body, they were directly evaporated by the condensed power of the sun, causing an unpleasant smell in the air, but Wu Tong seemed not to smell it, and continued to practice without any movement.

Wu Tong's body gradually changed. The circulation of qi and blood became more active. The significantly enhanced qi and blood ensured the nutrition of various parts of the body, while promoting the discharge of impurities, making the body healthier.

The muscles began to become more condensed, which not only improved the strength of the body, but also improved the body shape, making the body more symmetrical and harmonious, and the movements more agile and powerful.

The internal organs began to function in the best way. The perfect operation of the cardiopulmonary function and the regulation system promoted the balance and stability of the internal environment of the body, and improved the overall metabolic efficiency and immunity of the body.

Even the nervous system of the brain became more sensitive, which not only improved the body's reaction speed and coordination, but also enabled people to quickly adapt and adjust when facing changes in the external environment.

As the practice progressed, Wu Tong was also evolving towards perfection little by little, even though the time required in this process was countless.

…

As time went by, the sun in the sky gradually set in the west, but its light remained undiminished, continuing to provide Wu Tong with endless energy.

A golden mist began to gradually appear around Wu Tong's body, completely enveloping him. In this mist, he seemed to have entered a wonderful world, where there was no concept of time, only endless solar power flowing and gathering.

Finally, when the last rays of the setting sun disappeared on the horizon, Wu Tong slowly opened his eyes. The surrounding solar mist began to gradually dissipate.

Wu Tong's eyes flashed with dazzling light, which was the Shaoyang Qi that had not yet subsided. He stood up, his figure was as straight as a pine tree, and his whole body exuded an indescribable sense of majesty and power.

Feeling the powerful force in the activated acupoints in his body, filling every corner of his body, Wu Tong felt that he had expanded now, and even felt that he could blow up a mountain.

But Wu Tong knew that this feeling was just an illusion caused by the rapid increase in strength.

Just as Wu Tong adapted to his own strength, the senses that were blocked during practice began to slowly unlock.

"Huh~ What's that smell? It's so stinky."

Wu Tong sniffed, and the stench of burnt impurities in the air rushed into Wu Tong's nose. After sniffing carefully, Wu Tong found that the smell came from himself.

Feeling the stench coming from his nose, Wu Tong immediately mobilized the Shaoyang true qi in the acupoints, circulated it along the meridians to the legs, then rushed out from his feet and rushed towards the ground. A huge reverse thrust took Wu Tong away from the original place.

With this reverse thrust, Wu Tong's figure flickered like a ghost, and soon found a stream in the back mountain. Wu Tong quickly took off his clothes, jumped in impatiently, and began to wash his body.

After washing his body three times, until there was no more smell, Wu Tong left the stream, looking at his naked body and the only piece of clothing. Wu Tong resisted the urge to throw it away, used Shaoyang Qi to connect to the stream, controlled a stream of water to rise into the air, and swirled in the air.

Throw the smelly clothes on the ground into the water, control the water to wash the clothes, and the pervasive water washes every gap in the clothes, slowly washing away the smell.

After washing, control the stream to slide under the tree next to it, and then reach out to pick up the clothes. As the Qi in his hand surges, the water in the clothes begins to evaporate gradually.

After putting on his clothes, Wu Tong thought of what happened just now, and his face was a little embarrassed.

'It seems that I should buy a storage soul guide, prepare more clothes and daily necessities, whether it can be used or not, it is always right to prepare in advance. '

While thinking, Wu Tong walked down the mountain.
