The drunkard held the back of Bai Gu's neck and walked a few steps to the alley next to him. Then he stepped out and came to a wide grassland.
Bai Gu glanced around and recognized it. It was a grassland about ten miles away from the North City Gate.
Twenty miles further northeast from here is the farthest place Bai Gu has traveled so far, Baijiuwu.
Bai Gu looked around, as if there was nothing but grass.
Is there anything strange and interesting?
That old tree over there? It looked like it was almost dead. Bai Gu doubted that he could knock it down even if he touched it hard.
The drunkard sat directly on the ground, pointed at Bai Gu's feet, "Sit down first, I want to tell you something."
Bai Gu glanced at the drunkard and sat down in confusion.
"How much do you know about spiritual practice?" The drunkard took out a wine bottle from nowhere, and after taking a sip, he smashed it in his mouth, making Bai Gu feel a little uncomfortable.
Don't smash your mouth when eating. This is what Mrs. Bai taught him, and then he taught it to Bai Xiaoxiao.
"I only know a little bit, not much. I thought it was fake before, so I didn't know much about it."
"It's okay. You can tell me as much as you want. I don't expect you to tell any secrets."
Bai Gu rolled his eyes, "Introduce the spirit into the body, dredge the meridians, cleanse the acupoints, and open up the Qi Palace."
The drunkard nodded, took a sip of wine and waited for the next step, but after waiting for a while, he didn't hear Bai Gu continue to say, "No more?"
"What else? Firstly, I don't know a word of Chinese characters. Secondly, I used to be very interested in spiritual practice, but I always felt that it was only in the legends in books, so I just listened to many things." Bai Gu picked it up casually. A piece of dogtail grass is held in the mouth.
"It's normal." The drunkard wiped the corner of his mouth, "What you just said is right, but this is the first step on the road to spiritual practice, which is the key point of the first realm."
When Bai Gu heard the words "First Realm", he couldn't help but sit up straight.
The drunkard is about to say something useful.
"The road to spiritual practice is long, and the starting point is to introduce the spirit into the body. This step is the foundation of the foundation. If you cannot do this, everything will stop. This step is usually called spiritual enlightenment, but it is not listed as one of the realms. Because There are many people with genius or opportunity who can skip this step directly, so it is not listed as a realm."
"Ah? How is it possible? Doesn't it mean that without this step, there is no need to think about the subsequent practice?" Bai Gu was confused.
The drunkard laughed and said, "Some geniuses, or some races, are born with the ability to resonate with heaven and earth. They don't ask for anything, and their spiritual power comes naturally. They can instantly bring spirits into their bodies as soon as they have the idea of cultivation, and The follow-up practice goes smoothly, this kind of person is called a proud person of heaven, and ordinary people like us cannot compare with it."
Bai Gu thought for a moment, "Is it like Mo Tiansheng? Does the Tianling tribe mentioned in the book really exist?"
"The Tianling Tribe, this race is real, and it is one of the few races in the world that is extremely close to the spiritual power of heaven and earth. They are uniquely endowed with a very fast cultivation speed."
"It really does!" Bai Gu looked surprised.
The drunkard ignored Bai Gu and continued: "After the spirit is introduced into the body, it is the first state, the soul enlightenment state, where the meridians are dredged, the acupoints are washed, and the qi palace is opened. There are thirty-six major meridians in the human body, and seventy Two strange meridians, one hundred and eight passes, these are the meridians. Seven orifices, three hundred and sixty-five acupuncture points, these are the acupoints. One Dantian, nine mysterious qi, eighty-one spiritual mansions, this It is the Qi Palace. Moreover, these are all carried out at the same time, but there is a difference in order. The Soul-Enlightening Realm is divided into three small realms, Yongquan, Tanzhong, and Niwan. The Yongquan Realm needs to open up six major meridians. , twelve strange sutras, eighteen passes, and thirty acupuncture points to open up the Dantian. The number required for the Tanzhong realm will be doubled, and the Lingfu will be opened to condense the three profound energies. The Niwan realm is very simple. Now, just open up the remaining meridians, acupoints, and Qi palaces. But although this small realm is not difficult, it can be regarded as the first ghost gate that a practitioner has encountered."
The drunkard took a sip of wine and moistened his throat. "These three small realms are named after the first acupuncture points that need to be opened to break through the realm. The springs are in the feet, the tanzhong is in the body, and the mud pills are in the head. The other two points are Fortunately, in the Niwan state, you need to open up the Niwan acupoint located between the eyebrows. This place is extremely dangerous. If you are not careful, your previous efforts will be wasted and your cultivation will be ruined. In the worst case, your spirit and soul will be destroyed, and your body will die."
Bai Gu raised his eyebrows slightly, "I shouldn't have such troubles, right?"
"You're overthinking. Your meridians are all open, but none of the other acupoints and Qi palaces have been touched. And you haven't even done the most basic thing of introducing spirits into the body, and you haven't even seen the threshold of cultivation. "Yeah." The drunkard smiled teasingly, "I would like to see what it would be like for a guy who can't even touch the threshold of cultivation, but has several realms of cultivation."
Bai Gu curled his lips, "Is there anyone like you who is a master? You enjoy making fun of your own apprentices."
The drunkard shrugged and said it didn't matter.
“What’s after that realm? What other realm is there?”
The drunkard glanced at him and said, "Enlighten the Soul, Cast the Soul, and Knock on the Xuan. Remember these three realms first. As for the other ones, it's useless if you know them. These three realms are enough for you to practice for many years."
Bai Gu felt depressed.
How can a master suppress and make fun of his apprentice every day? I want to return it!
"Then Master, what state are you in now?"
The drunkard turned his eyes elsewhere, raised his head and took a sip of wine, "Above the Three Realms."
Bai Gu nodded and asked no more questions.
It seemed that the drunkard didn't really want to mention this, so he gave such a perfunctory answer.
Bai Gu thought for a while, "What about the old guy? What kind of cultivation level does he have?"
"He," the drunkard seemed to have thought of something funny, "you can ask him yourself if you have a chance in the future."
Bai Gu rolled his eyes. If he didn't want to say anything, he didn't want to say it. Why go so far?
"By the way, master, which sect are we from? I can't go out in the future. If someone asks about my sect, I can't tell you a word, right?"
"We don't have a sect, we only have a disciple." The drunkard paused, "And it's a single lineage, with only one disciple in a generation."
As he said that, the drunkard gave Bai Gu a meaningful look.
Bai Gu chuckled, "Master, are you regretting it?"
Unexpectedly, the drunkard nodded decisively, "I do regret it. I regretted agreeing to the old guy when I saw you for the first time. The disciples I planned to accept before must be in a perfect state no matter what they do at your age. "
Bai Gu took a deep breath.
Calm down, calm down, this is my new master after all, you can't talk back.
Mainly because I can't beat it...
"Such a disciple must have great talent. Master, are you sure you can handle it?"
The drunkard sneered, "I started practicing at the age of fifteen. When I was your age, I achieved the second level of perfection, and when I was seventeen, I achieved the small perfection of the third level."
The corners of Bai Gu's lips that were about to laugh at the drunkard suddenly froze.
what's the situation? !
I started practicing at the age of fifteen, achieved perfection in the second level at the age of sixteen, and achieved minor perfection in the third level at the age of seventeen?
Isn’t this called root bone?
Incredible talent, isn't it?
"Master, you are so talented..." Bai Gu said sarcastically.
"It's just so-so, not comparable to those real geniuses." There was no complacency on the drunkard's face at all, "You have to remember that since we only have masters, the inheritance of this lineage is destined to be passed on to only one person. Even if that person is talented Very poor, even a useless person. He died early, and he must not be replaced halfway. This disciple is both opening the mountain and closing the door, do you understand?"
Bai Gu nodded seriously.
"Of course, if you have a sect or other techniques in the future, you can accept other disciples, but you must not pass on our teaching to multiple people! After you choose one person, even if you No matter how talented the other disciples are, if they take over from this master after just one glance, they still have to take action! You have to take responsibility for your own choices!"
Bai Gu was stunned for a moment.
What the hell? So cruel? Can you kill your own disciple?
But Bai Gu still nodded and agreed.
Anyway, he is too lazy. Even if he accepts a disciple in the future, he will only accept one. If there are more, he will not bother to care.
"Hey, Master, what's your name? If someone asks me in the future, I'll be embarrassed if I can't answer." Bai Gu chuckled.
The drunkard looked to the south, "My name is Lin Xianyu. The rivers are not close to the abyss, and the mountain birds only envy the fish."
