At 8 o'clock in the morning, Han Xiaosheng arrived at Baibao Pavilion and asked Mr. Feng for advice on how to get started with the Five Elements Kung Fu and how to practice it.
In the morning, Mr. Feng first explained the acupuncture points on the body and asked him to memorize the names and locations of the acupuncture points. In the afternoon, he explained to him the introductory practice method of Qingmu Longevity Kung Fu. Han Xiaosheng secretly recorded the audio on his mobile phone and planned to listen to it several times when he went back in the evening.
At night, Han Xiaosheng listened to Mr. Feng's explanation recording over and over again on his mobile phone in his room.
After feeling that he had thoroughly understood the introductory practice method, Han Xiaosheng ran the Qingmu Longevity Kung Fu according to the method explained by Mr. Feng, hoping to be able to practice the introductory practice, and did not sleep until late at night.
After practicing for 10 consecutive days, I felt nothing. Han Xiaosheng felt that such a time-consuming practice method was inappropriate.
Considering that he had awakened the water attribute power with the help of blue fruit, he decided to change to the Black Water Technique and successfully practiced one technique first, which could provide a reference for the practice of other techniques.
When he arrived at Baibao Pavilion, he asked Mr. Feng to explain to him the secrets and cultivation methods of the Black Water Technique. He secretly recorded it on his mobile phone, and then returned to Liu Daneng's home.
He went into his room, put on headphones, and played it on his mobile phone. Every time he played a sentence, he read it against the Black Water Jue, and then copied his understanding with a brush.
He was not mentally prepared for this time travel. He thought he would go to the valley world again, and he did not bring any paper or pen. The brush and paper he was using now were obtained from Old Man Feng. His pen calligraphy was like dragons and phoenixes, and his calligraphy was even more unsightly. , that is, he can still recognize it himself.
He studied the Black Water Art at Liu Daneng's house for two consecutive days and did not go to Baibao Pavilion. Old Man Feng didn't take it to heart either.
On the third day, he took the content he translated and compared it twice with Old Man Feng's recording, and then compared it with the original Traditional Chinese version. He felt that he understood the content of the exercise and could practice according to it.
The content of this Black Water Technique is similar to the Taoist practice method.
Taoist cultivation emphasizes refining essence to transform into Qi, refining Qi into transforming into Spirit, refining Spirit to return void, and refining void to combine with Dao.
What practitioners practice is actually one breath, because Qi is the origin of the world, the primary substance that makes up the universe, and the most basic element that makes up everything in the world.
The world of cultivation believes that the vast void of the universe is filled with endless vitality with biochemical capabilities.
Yuan Qi spreads the universe and governs the earth. The way of heaven begins with the material, and the earth uses the material for life. All tangible bodies rely on the energy to metabolize and come into being.
Human beings are products of nature, born from the qi of heaven and earth, and formed according to the laws of the four seasons. The qi of yin and yang and the five elements of heaven and earth are internalized in the human body, constituting the physiological qi of the human body.
The Tao Te Ching says: "Man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, heaven follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature."
Since the entire nature is derived from Yuan Qi, humans cannot be separated from Yuan Qi and are highly dependent on Yuan Qi for survival. When Qi gathers, they will live, and when Qi disperses, they will die.
Therefore, cultivation cultivates vitality, so cultivation means cultivating oneself according to the principles of nature, using the vitality in the universe to strengthen oneself, strengthening oneself, so that one's own vitality can last forever.
In ancient times, the aura of heaven and earth between heaven and earth was sufficient. The ancestors only needed to absorb the aura of heaven and earth from the outer world into the human body to strengthen and enhance the physical body and spirit of the human body, so as to achieve the purpose of lasting physical and spiritual existence.
Taoism starts with refining, because the earth has reached an era of thin spiritual energy, and it is difficult to reach the sky by relying on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Therefore, Taoists start from the heaven and earth in the human body and choose two ways to convert the essence of food into the life energy of the body by refining the essence of food and breathing trace amounts of pure air from nature. Among them, the pure air of breathing is too rare, so the essence of food is still used. Lord.
In this way, the vitality of life is continuously strengthened, and then the vitality of life is transported in the meridians of the human body to circulate throughout the sky, and the body's own body is continuously strengthened.
When the life energy and physical strength in the body have grown to a certain level, you can use the life energy to feed your own spirit.
When the spirit has grown and sublimated to a certain level, the consciousness can be condensed at the Shenting point where the upper Dantian is located. This is the process of refining qi and transforming into spirit.
The Black Water Technique of Zhenwu Continent is in principle the same as the training ideas of the ancient ancestors, because Zhenwu Continent does not lack the vitality of heaven and earth.
Therefore, Han Xiaosheng made the decision to try to cultivate both internal and external vitality in Zhenwu Continent. Not only should he cultivate the external vitality of heaven and earth, but he should also cultivate the inner vitality of heaven and earth like Taoism. In this case, he would encounter a world with abundant vitality of heaven and earth. , just use the vitality of the outer world to practice, and when you encounter a world where the vitality of the heaven and earth is thin, use the inner vitality of life to practice, so that you can eat well wherever you go.
After Han Xiaosheng made up his mind, he decided to practice according to the Black Water Art.
There are two steps to get started in practicing the Black Water Art.
The first step is to generate a sense of qi, and the second step is to introduce qi into the body, leading the energy of heaven and earth from the outside into the dantian, and if it can stay in the dantian without dissipating, then the introduction to qi refining is completed.
It is described in Black Water Jue that you close your mouth and lick the roof of your mouth with your tongue. The external air passes through the nasal cavity to the base of the tongue, descends through the Xuanying point under the tongue, and goes down the 12th floor along the trachea. The air descends to the chest and passes through the pit of the heart. Through the narrow passage, the Qi is sent to the navel and then to the Dantian.
Practitioners repeatedly feel the subjective sensation caused by the flow and operation of Qi in the body, until they can form a physical instinct. As long as the mind moves, they can feel and drive the flow of Qi in the body.
At this point, the feeling of Qi arises.
Practitioners can use a special rhythm every day to inhale the vitality of heaven and earth from the nasal cavity until it enters the Dantian, and then exhales it through the mouth.
Through accumulated practice over time, a sense of closeness will gradually develop between the Dantian and the vitality of heaven and earth, until the first ray of pure vitality of heaven and earth can remain in the Dantian for a short time, thus completing the introduction of Qi into the body.
At this time, cultivation has entered the first level of Qi refining.
This ray of heaven and earth energy resident in the Dantian can be driven by the practitioner's thoughts and used to open up the meridians and acupoints contained in the Dantian, which is to refine the Dantian.
After one ray of heaven and earth vitality dissipates, a second ray of heaven and earth vitality is introduced, driving this new ray of heaven and earth vitality to continue to open up the meridians and acupuncture points contained in the Dantian.
When the meridians and acupoints contained in the Dantian are completely opened, the Dantian will be completely opened, and the Dantian of cultivation will truly be formed.
After the new heaven and earth energy enters the body, it will circulate along the meridians and acupuncture points contained in the Dantian for a week. The remaining heaven and earth energy will fully possess the characteristics of cultivating the Dantian. It will not dissipate again, but will stay in the center of the new Dantian space and become What is in the human body itself is called Qi.
As you continue to practice like this, more and more Qi will reside in your Dantian until it is completely full.
At this time, the first level of Qi refining is complete, and continuing to practice will not increase the amount of Qi unless it can break through to the second level.
Han Xiaosheng reviewed his practice some time ago and understood the reason why his practice of Qingmu Longevity Technique was ineffective.
Because he practiced Qingmu Longevity Kung Fu for ten days, which is actually to cultivate the sense of energy. However, it takes time to accumulate the sense of energy, and the practice process also needs to meet the standards of the designer of the technique. He doesn’t have a master to teach him step by step. Not even a month is It is impossible for the body to produce an instinctive sense of Qi.
Therefore, he practiced for ten days and still felt nothing.
However, he found a shortcut.
Generally, practitioners need to use a special breathing method to feel the air outside the body, follow a certain route to the Dantian, and generate a sense of Qi little by little. After the Qi sense is generated, the closeness between the Dantian and the vitality of heaven and earth is gradually increased until there is so much left. A ray of true energy is used to open up the Dantian.
This process is extremely difficult.
But practicing the Black Water Technique by yourself doesn't need to be so troublesome at all.
To put it bluntly, the vitality of heaven and earth that ultimately remains in the Dantian is composed of various elements.
He already has the water attribute power and can directly feel the water element in the outside world. It does not require such a troublesome process. He can directly skip the gas sensing and breathing stages and directly attract the water element into the Dantian to form a pure water attribute heaven and earth spirit. force.
With this ready-made water attribute of heaven and earth spiritual power, you can directly start refining the Dantian.
Of course, this is his idea, and he still needs to verify whether it is feasible.
So, Han Xiaosheng sat cross-legged, calmed down, adjusted his breathing, and then began to review in his mind the way to sense the water element in the earth at that time. Then he closed his eyes, forgetting the method of practicing Qi described in the Black Water Art, and started Use your mind to sense the vitality of heaven and earth around your body.
Soon, he sensed that his body was surrounded by small light spots of various colors. One of the blue light spots gave him a very close feeling. He felt that it was easy to control. He thought this was the element of water, the heart. As soon as he thought about it, those blue light spots floated towards him and entered his body from all parts of his body.
He felt the emotions of these blue light spots, and began to guide the light spots entering various parts of his body to converge towards the Dantian.
These light spots are a bit naughty and do not want to stay in the middle of the Dantian for a long time. After reaching the Dantian position, they will move randomly. After Han Xiaosheng communicated with his thoughts, he discovered that these light spots must be in motion, because changes in movement are the energy of heaven and earth. If the conditions and forms of existence cannot move, they will no longer be the air of heaven and earth, but will be transformed into matter.
After understanding this truth, he no longer restrained these light points, but accelerated the attraction of blue light points from the outside world, so that the number of light points entering the Dantian was greater than the number of light points running out of the Dantian. This would cause the light points in the Dantian to The number of points is increasing.
As more and more blue light points gathered, the light points in the middle of the Dantian became denser and denser. Han Xiaosheng began to use his mind to control these light points to start traveling along a rotating route, forming a vortex.
After the vortex is formed, Han Xiaosheng no longer needs to control it too much. At this time, the attraction of the vortex will restrict most of the light points from escaping. Only those light points near the periphery will fly away. Therefore, he only needs to attract similar light points from the outside. The vortex prevents light points of other colors from entering the vortex, and the vortex can continue to grow.
As time went by, the vortex in Dantian became more and more solid, and Han Xiaosheng gradually felt a little powerless. He quickly drove the vortex towards the Guanyuan point in Dantian with his thoughts. However, he found that the blue light spots contained in the vortex were too large. Too much, because his mental strength is not enough and he cannot fully control his thoughts. More and more light spots are scattered, until the vortex becomes smaller and smaller, and finally disappears.
He opened his eyes and felt tired, so he lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
