Inside the cave, Lin Chen was sitting in the study.
Since he had a private cave, Lin Chen directly copied most of the information in the laboratory so that he could view it at any time to trigger inspiration.
In the study room, books are arranged neatly, and the surroundings are filled with human anatomy diagrams, human body meridians diagrams, human body acupuncture diagrams and other human body illustrations. The illustrations are as lifelike as real.
If any one of them is revealed, it can cause great shock in the apricot forest in the mortal world.
Even in the world of cultivation, it is enough to be of great help to those monks who have just embarked on the path of cultivation and cannot figure out the location of the meridians and apertures for a while.
Although Lin Chen did not study medicine in his previous life, after traveling through so many years and doing hundreds of dissections, he still understands it more or less.
After all, practice makes perfect, and as a time traveler, he must sum up something!
Besides, in order to cultivate immortality, he learned a lot of knowledge about medicine, formations, materials, drugs, etc. in this world in his early years, and relied on the convenience of a cultivator to master many of the top martial arts in the world.
All this is done to gain enough knowledge and provide better help for oneself in pursuing the road to immortality.
And now, these early experiences have also provided a lot of help for him to explore the golden elixir now.
"To practice as a monk in this world, you need to make elixirs from various herbs or demon elixirs with different properties, or materials from demonic beasts, and then eat them to achieve breakthroughs in cultivation.
What is important is to plunder all things in the world to support oneself and complete the path of sublimation of the essence of life. "
Lin Chen tapped the table lightly, recalling the summary of this life and the knowledge of past lives in his mind, and couldn't help but think deeply.
The Qi refining method in this life focuses on plundering all things to serve oneself.
But the inner alchemy technique in the previous life was different. It emphasized that people themselves are a kind of living beings and have great medicines.
The human body's organs, essence, various systems, and even the human body's emotions and thoughts can be regarded as a type of medicine.
What is pursued is to rely on the changes in one's own human body to cultivate the human body's great medicine. After the great medicine is replenished, the essence of the great medicine is directly integrated into the human body. Then, people can use it whether it is to break through bottlenecks or to improve their cultivation. .
Theoretically, as long as there are enough powerful medicines, the essence will continue to grow without any restrictions. At that time, there will be no obstacles at all whether it is cultivation or breakthrough.
From Lin Chen's point of view, he really couldn't understand how the inner alchemy technique in his previous life could use the human body as medicine.
Let’s not talk about the problem of prions, and let’s not talk about the human body of flesh and blood. How to control the condensation of the void spirit and spirit into a medicine with your thoughts.
Just the fact that he continuously refines the essence and spirit of the human body into human elixir makes Lin Chen a little puzzled.
However, in his opinion, since it exists, the amount should be limited. Nei alchemy only talks about how to cultivate the great medicine, but not how to replenish it. From this point of view, doesn’t it mean that the human body is regarded as a perpetual motion machine, only producing Out, no supplement?
"Maybe it's some trick or knowledge that I don't understand..." Lin Chen thought for a while, but couldn't come up with an answer.
After all, he didn't practice in his previous life and just read about it in novels. How proficient can he expect to be?
"But from a purely conceptual point of view, the inner alchemy method is better than the ordinary martial arts in this world."
"Martial arts in the mortal world are similar to those of immortal cultivators. They mainly cultivate the qi, blood and inner strength in the body, so as to connect the bridge between heaven and earth, promote innateness, and condense innate energy."
"The art of inner alchemy focuses on using the human body as a furnace and the essence and spirit as medicinal materials to refine a leak-proof golden elixir, thus uniting heaven and man."
"The two are different in terms of their paths. Obviously the latter has the upper hand, because not only do the three elements of spirit, energy and spirit practice together, but they even merge into one with nature and man in the later stages. They have a bright future that is far beyond what these innate martial arts can compare with."
"But the question now is, how to practice inner alchemy? In my previous life, I was just a college student and not an encyclopedia. How do I know how to practice this thing?"
In his previous life, he was just an ordinary college student, not a Taoist disciple. He only read about inner alchemy in novels and knew some theories, but when he really wanted to practice it, he was confused.
"Um……"
Lin Chen thought hard for a long time and gradually came up with an idea.
"I have read some theories in the novels about cultivating immortals in my previous life. Maybe I can try to modify them by combining them with the laws of spiritual energy I summarized in this life."
"Although it may not be correct, at most, if you create a few more topics and experiment with more materials, you will always find a way out. Even if you don't even have a direction for thinking..."
Soon, Lin Chen made up his mind and kept recalling the knowledge of his previous life in his mind.
According to his understanding, one of the most critical things in inner alchemy is - [Human Medicine].
Relying on the changes in the human body, the essence, qi, and spirit are condensed to cultivate the human body's great medicine. After the great medicine is cultivated, the human body is used as a furnace, combined with the weather to smelt it, and finally a leak-free golden elixir is refined.
"I'm not sure if this is the entire content of inner alchemy, but if combined with the laws of spiritual energy that I have summarized in the world, it is feasible..."
"Because spirit, energy and spirit really exist in this world and can even appear in reality. In this way, inner alchemy is possible."
"However, the human body's energy and energy will be consumed, and it must be replenished by water and grain... Well, if you think about it this way, then wouldn't the inner alchemy be an advanced form that combines the essence of water and grain and other basic materials to contain the human body's energy and spirit? Material?"
Countless thoughts flashed through Lin Chen's mind. He picked up the notes in his hand and wrote down his thoughts one stroke at a time.
Steps to practice the inner alchemy method:
The first step is to refine yourself. Whether you are practicing martial arts or cultivating immortals, the first step is to eliminate distracting thoughts and achieve tranquility during the practice process, so that you can practice.
The second step is to build the foundation. That is to say, in this step, you need to replenish nutrition, exercise your body, make up for acquired deficiencies, lay a good foundation for alchemy, and at the same time strengthen and healthy your body, so that you can cultivate enough human medicine.
The third step is to adjust the medicine. This world is composed of spiritual energy. In the human body, there are also things such as qi, blood and internal energy, which represent essence and qi respectively. Mix the two and then integrate them into the monk's spirit to create the prototype of the human body's great medicine.
The fourth step is to prepare the medicine. Use the essence of water and grain to replenish the body's essence, energy, and spirit, thereby cultivating the human body's great medicine.
The fifth step is to collect herbs. Collect the great medicine of the human body, feed it back to the physical body, refine and manifest the essence, energy and spirit.
The sixth step is to return the elixir. Smelt the essence of the human body and condense the golden elixir without leakage.
After writing this step, Lin Chen's hands suddenly stopped.
He had a basic idea of the process of refining the human body's elixir, but how to smelt the human body's essence and condense the golden elixir was what he wanted to understand.
"It's really troublesome." Lin Chen frowned.
If you want to explore the secrets, you must practice inner alchemy to the point of cultivating the great medicine for the human body.
But the problem is that it's just his guess. He's really not sure whether he can start practicing.
"You must clear the road ahead before you can explore the step of condensing the golden elixir..."
How about continuing the experiment?
This idea was abandoned by Lin Chen as soon as it was born.
The reason is simple: lack of ability.
This kind of practice requires initiative. Let’s not talk about whether the practitioner cooperates or not. Just the problems encountered in it cannot be completely solved by Lin Chen.
You know, even if the inner alchemy technique he develops is related to the golden elixir, once it is successful, it will be an elixir-forming technique.
Although Lin Chen has conducted research for ten years, he only knows some principles on the path of cultivating immortality, but does not know the specific operation process.
If you ask him to improve a technique to make it more suitable for him based on his own situation, or to create a simple cultivation method based on some principles, he can still do it.
But you have to create a pill-forming technique from the beginning to the end that is different from the orthodox one in the Lingnan immortal world. It is simply impossible for him to do it now!
"So the best way is to spread the word and let countless people practice Thunder and finally perfect it..."
"But we can't cultivate immortality in Lingnan. Otherwise, if a golden elixir is born and comes to visit me, then I will be in big trouble..."
"So it's best to spread it in the mortal world, integrate it with martial arts, and refine a martial arts golden elixir. Even if it loses control, with the strength of the immortal way and its unpredictable methods, can't it suppress a newly born martial arts golden elixir?"
"And this path that integrates inner alchemy and martial arts is also called [inner alchemy and martial arts]?"
