In the sea of consciousness.
Memory palace.
Under the martial arts tree.
Xu Yi (soul) stretched out his hand.
Above the head.
A little bit of newly born starlight was drawn down and landed in front of him.
This is a memory star that exudes pink light. It is a memory of desire obtained from the "Evil Sword Manual". To be more precise, it can also be said to be lust (harmony) desire, or love (harmony) desire.
There is an idiom called seven emotions and six desires, which refers to various human emotions and desires.
According to each family's philosophy, they have different understandings of the seven emotions and six desires.
Like seven emotions.
According to Confucianism, they are joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, evil, and desire.
According to Buddhism, they are happiness, anger, worry, fear, love, hatred, and desire.
According to doctors, the seven emotions are joy, anger, worry, thought, sadness, fear, and surprise.
There are similarities, but there are also differences.
Let’s talk about the six desires.
According to "Lu Shi Chun Qiu", it refers to the desires generated by life, death, ears, eyes, mouth, and nose.
Buddhism believes that it is the desire for color (harmony), the desire for appearance, the desire for majesty and posture, the desire for speech and sound, the desire for smoothness, and the desire for human appearance.
This is the ancient people's annotation of the "six desires". Of course, there is also a modern saying that the six desires refer to the desire for survival, the desire for knowledge, the desire for expression, the desire for performance, the desire for comfort, and the desire for love (harmony).
At present, there are only three mainstream theories of 'six desires'.
Judging from these three alone, the Buddhist theory of "six desires" seems to be relatively one-sided, as it only positions it as the six desires of lay people for the opposite sex.
In contrast, "Lu Shi Chun Qiu" defines it as life, death, ears, eyes, mouth, and nose more comprehensively.
Later people summarized it as desire to see (vision), desire to hear (hearing), desire to smell (smell), desire to taste (taste), desire to touch (touch), and desire.
This basically covers all human desires.
As for the desire for survival, the desire for knowledge, the desire for expression, the desire for performance, the desire for comfort and the desire for love (harmony) summarized in modern times, it is interpreted from another angle.
Because desire memory and emotional memory are both transformed from soul energy, and everyone's soul energy is basically the same, so overall the desire memory possessed by everyone is almost equal.
As your desire for food increases, your desire for other aspects will naturally decrease, and the energy contained in the memory of desire will also be greatly reduced accordingly.
Xu Yi's desire for love (harmony) is actually relatively average. In his previous life, he was almost the same as ordinary people. In this life, because he saw martial arts, his desires have shifted more to the desire for knowledge and desire for survival. Love (harmony) ) sexual desires are further reduced.
If he had to rely on himself to generate corresponding emotional (harmony) memories, he probably wouldn't be able to generate many in a day.
But "Evil Sword Manual" breaks this restriction...
Just the moment he saw the starlight of desire memory, Xu Yi knew he was safe.
The brightness of this desire memory starlight is comparable to the normal memory starlight of two or three days!
How long does this desire memory starlight last?
It only lasts two or three seconds at most!
The brightness and size of memory starlight often determine the amount of soul energy and spiritual energy it contains.
The desire memory star that appeared in front of Xu Yi was much smaller than the normal memory star of two or three days, but it was much larger than its normal size, almost reaching the size of the normal half-day memory star.
"absorb!"
With a thought in his mind, Xu Yi activated the "Qinglian Internal Skill" and absorbed this starlight of desire memory.
The specific amount of spiritual energy that can be obtained will be known immediately.
This bit of memory starlight was so small that it was completely absorbed in almost a breath.
Xu Yi also obtained specific data at this time.
"one day!"
"The spiritual energy contained in this desire memory starlight is roughly equivalent to the spiritual energy of a normal day's memory!"
What is this concept?
Two or three seconds, no, to be precise, one or two seconds of practice, the desire memory produced contains the same spiritual energy as a normal day's memory.
To convert, one minute is equivalent to one or two months, and one hour is equivalent to five to ten years?
Xu Yi's last epiphany only used the spiritual energy generated by seven years of memory!
"It's so scary!"
This is really scary!
Even Xu Yi couldn't help but take a few breaths of cold air.
The benefits of epiphany go without saying.
After Xu Yi activated his enlightenment state last time, he not only compressed the "Huashan Sword Technique" that originally took several years to perfect into ten minutes, but also forcibly defeated Shangguan Yundun, who was a level above himself. They were all killed!
Such a powerful enlightenment with all kinds of huge benefits, he can now get it once at most once every hour of practice?
"No!"
"impossible!"
At this time, Xu Yi had already switched to a serious state. After being shocked for a while, he quickly regained his senses.
The situation just now was just a harvest from the extreme state. Look at the injuries all over his body now!
In that state, if Xu Yi practiced for just one minute, let alone an hour, he would probably go crazy and die!
So theoretically, he can achieve enlightenment once he practices for an hour, but the actual situation is that it is impossible for him to practice for an hour in that state!
"But even if it is impossible to practice in that extreme state, as long as I find out the normal state in which I can practice...it doesn't have to be too high, it only needs to be one-tenth, or even one-tenth of the effect. , that’s a lot of money too!”
"And more importantly..."
Xu Yi felt his restored soul energy.
"I practice like this without consuming soul energy!"
What is the most difficult thing about practicing internal strength?
It's time!
Because condensing internal strength requires a large amount of physical and soul energy, warriors can only practice for a maximum of two hours a day.
This is the biggest factor restricting the cultivation of warriors!
Xu Yi was also deeply troubled.
However, unlike most warriors, he basically solved the problem of physical energy through the existence of Shiquan Dabu Pill.
But there is nothing you can do about soul energy.
Xu Yi has no way to actively cultivate his soul and increase his soul energy, and his daily cultivation time is also limited.
Once the daily quota of consumable soul energy is used up, he can only stop practicing his internal skills and turn to martial arts.
But the "Evil-Resisting Sword Manual" is different, or Xu Yi's way of practicing the "Evil-Resisting Sword Manual" is very different from that of a normal warrior!
He directly absorbed the desire memory starlight again!
Replenished by the soul energy in these stars, Xu Yi's soul energy that he had just consumed recovered unexpectedly.
"If I practice and absorb it once, won't I be able to realize my eternal energy cycle? Then I will get a huge amount of spiritual energy in vain?"
Psychic energy is the energy created by the mixture of memory and soul. It originates from the soul, but it is not transformed from soul energy. It is born in a more mysterious way.
Therefore, after the soul energy and information are converted into memory, although the soul energy, information and psychic energy are possessed, the psychic energy is actually the extra part and is not counted in the soul energy.
After this calculation, Xu Yi really didn't consume anything and got a huge amount of spiritual energy in vain.
"etc!"
"It doesn't seem to be completely without consumption."
Xu Yi felt it carefully, called up the previous memory comparison, and found that his soul energy was not completely consumed.
It's just that this consumption was very small, probably only one-tenth or even one-twentieth of the normal consumption, so he didn't notice it immediately.
"This should be a natural loss during the transformation process!"
Xu Yi thought in his mind.
The consumption is only one-twentieth to one-tenth of the normal consumption. If converted, it is equivalent to his training time changing from two hours to twenty or thirty hours a day.
This is completely enough to meet his own daily cultivation needs, and even exceeds it.
Xu Yi spends four hours every day just sleeping, plus eating, drinking, and defecation. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for him to spend twenty hours a day practicing.
certainly.
None of this matters for now.
The important thing is that Xu Yi must first find a more suitable state for practicing the "Evil Sword Manual"!
"Exit seriousness!"
Xu Yi returned to normal, took out a bottle of pills for treating internal injuries, swallowed them orally, and then turned on his serious state, running "Huashan Internal Skills" for refining, and at the same time using internal force for auxiliary treatment.
Like this, nearly an hour passed.
"call!"
Xu Yi breathed a long sigh of relief and opened his eyes.
After an hour of healing, he finally recovered from his physical injuries.
Fortunately, he reacted promptly enough and interrupted the practice immediately. This made him look like he was covered in blood and serious, but in fact they were very minor injuries.
Of course, if it was an ordinary person, such an injury would actually take ten and a half days to recover from, but who made Xu Yi a warrior?
After taking pills to treat internal injuries and using internal force to assist in healing, it only took an hour to recover.
"Enable five times normal state!"
"Practice the "Evil-Repelling Sword Manual"!"
Xu Yi, who had had this experience, was obviously much more cautious than before.
The benefits and costs are basically proportional.
"Evil Sword Manual" can provide five times the cultivation efficiency, and the price required to practice it is naturally five times that of normal cultivation.
If you have amazing talent, you can achieve five times the cultivation efficiency, and you will most likely be exempt from this price.
Xu Yi proved with practical actions that this is indeed the case.
When turned on five times the normal state, it completely offsets the impact of the "Evil Sword Manual".
In other words, if Xu Yi is willing, he only needs to activate five times the normal state, and he can directly practice "Evil Sword Manual" without GG.
Well······
I wonder if Dongfang Bubai, Yue Buqun and Lin Pingzhi would cry if they knew about this?
But this is obviously not a good thing for Xu Yi.
The "Evil Sword Manual" that is not affected?
Who the hell wants this kind of technique?
"Enable four times the normal state!"
"Practice the "Evil-Repelling Sword Manual"!"
This time, Xu Yi felt the influence of desire again, but this influence was not particularly strong.
Although he can also obtain a certain amount of spiritual energy, this level is equivalent to what Xu Yi would normally gain from practicing his sword.
"Enable triple normal state!"
"Practice the "Evil-Repelling Sword Manual"!"
This time, the desire that Xu Yi felt was stronger, and he even felt a passionate urge to do something.
In this state, the spiritual energy he gained was very considerable, even dozens of times that when he turned on the four times normal state.
More importantly, although he was greatly affected in this state, his internal power was still under his control, and his body was not harmed.
Xu Yi estimated that he would have to practice in this state for at least several hours if he wanted to lose control of his internal energy and harm his body.
"This is probably not the best condition yet!"
Xu Yi thought about his previous profits and was not very satisfied with this situation.
If he uses this state, it will take at least ten days for him to get an opportunity for enlightenment.
Although this is very good compared to before, how can it compare with the once-an-hour epiphany?
Xu Yi felt that he could continue to try!
"Enable twice the normal state!"
"Practice the "Evil-Repelling Sword Manual"!"
In this state, Xu Yi was greatly affected. His internal energy even showed signs of losing control. Within a few minutes, he actually lost control!
"Switch to serious state!"
Xu Yi decisively switched to the most powerful serious state at the second before losing control, and used his absolute ability to regain control of the internal force in his body to prevent it from harming him.
"It seems this is almost the limit."
"The maximum range I can endure should be between twice the normal state and three times the normal state."
If it continues to decrease, it will directly harm himself.
If you go back to improve the status, the income will become very low.
“Just test between the two!”
Xu Yi, who had a clear goal, started to make further attempts even though he was in between these two states.
"Enable 2.5 times normal state!"
Yes.
He can also adjust these multiples to three decimal places, and even to three decimal places if he wishes.
But that doesn't mean much.
For Xu Yi before, he only needed to turn on an integer multiple of the state to meet his own cultivation needs, and there was no need to adjust to a decimal point.
Now it is because whether it is twice the normal state or three times the normal state, there are corresponding problems and it cannot be regarded as Xu Yi's best state, so he will adjust it to a decimal point for the first time.
Analysis, comparison, deduction...
This is actually a very boring process, but Xu Yi has long been accustomed to it - his more than ten hours of sword practice every day is much more boring than this!
Finally, after nearly two hours of trying, Xu Yi found the best state.
