Liu Yu himself has mixed spiritual roots of three lines, possessing spiritual roots of three attributes: metal, wood, and earth, and his cultivation aptitude is mediocre. Everyone knows that only by possessing spiritual roots can one cultivate immortality, but most no one knows what spiritual roots refer to.
In fact, spiritual roots refer to meridians, but everyone has meridians, so to be precise, they refer to special meridians. What is "special", in layman's terms, is the meridians that can absorb spiritual energy. The meridians in a mortal body cannot absorb spiritual energy, let alone store it, so they cannot cultivate immortality.
The spiritual root is divided into five basic attributes: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. The five-shaped attributes complement and restrain each other. Whatever spiritual roots a cultivator possesses, he or she can absorb the spiritual energy of the corresponding attributes during cultivation. Liu Yu can practice by absorbing the spiritual energy of the three attributes of gold, wood, and earth.
The more spiritual root attributes you possess, the more types of spiritual energy you can absorb. But why the world of cultivation determines the quality of cultivation qualifications that the simpler the spiritual root, the more outstanding the qualification. This starts with the mutual generation and mutual restraint of spiritual roots.
The exercise "Huangmu Peiyuan Gong" practiced by Liu Yu is a wood-attribute exercise, and the spiritual energy stored in the Dantian is all wood spiritual energy. When Liu Yu meditated and practiced, he absorbed the spiritual energy from the outside world through his meridians, and the spiritual energy of the three attributes of gold, wood, and earth that was free between heaven and earth naturally poured into his body.
Because Liu Yu has these three spiritual roots, when practicing, Liu Yu has to guide the wood spirit energy into the Dantian, and at the same time dispel the gold and earth spirit energy inhaled in the meridians at the same time. This greatly slows down the absorption of wood spirit energy and delays the process. Cultivation speed.
If Liu Yu has a single spiritual root of the wood system, then he only needs to concentrate on absorbing the free wood spiritual energy between heaven and earth for practice, and does not have to distract from dispelling the gold and earth spiritual energy. This is the benefit of the single spiritual root.
The purity of the spiritual root is also another aspect. The higher the purity of the spiritual root, the higher the affinity for spiritual energy, and the faster it is to absorb spiritual energy during practice.
If you are a cultivator with the wood-based Tianling Root, you can practice the "Huangmu Peiyuan Gong" like Liu Yu. The two of them absorbed the wood spirit energy at the same time. The Tianlinggen monk absorbed the wood spirit energy at least three times faster than Liu Yu. This shows the importance of the purity of the spirit root to practice.
If Liu Yu did not dispel the metal and earth spiritual energy he inhaled through his meridians while practicing, but also guided it into his Dantian, would this also greatly speed up his own practice? If this is the case, not only will the cultivation speed not be accelerated, but the Dantian will even be damaged, which may cause a decrease in cultivation level, or may even lead to a loss of one's life.
Because the auras of the five elements of heaven and earth have the characteristics of mutual reinforcement and mutual restraint.
The five elements generate each other: metal generates water, water generates wood, wood generates fire, fire generates earth, and earth generates metal.
The five elements are in conflict with each other: metal overcomes wood, wood overcomes earth, earth overcomes water, water overcomes fire, and fire overcomes metal.
If Liu Yu absorbs the spiritual energy of gold and earth through his meridians and directs it into his Dantian, he will be in extreme danger.
Because of the characteristics of earth-generated metal in spiritual energy, earth-based spiritual energy will enhance the power of inhaled gold-based spiritual energy in the Dantian. Liu Yu practices the "Yellow Wood Peiyuan Gong", and a large amount of wood-attribute spiritual power is stored in his Dantian. And because metal overcomes wood and wood overcomes earth, the three kinds of spiritual energy will repel and impact each other, resulting in violent vibrations that will become more and more intense.
If only a small amount of gold and earth spiritual energy is inhaled into the Dantian, the energy emitted by the conflict will damage the Dantian and meridians. If a large amount of gold and earth spiritual energy pours into the Dantian, Liu Yu himself will explode and die.
According to the attributes and characteristics of Liu Yu's three-system spiritual roots, it is most suitable to practice gold and earth dual-system exercises. However, the dual system skills are very rare, and Liu Yu is just an ordinary disciple and is not qualified to practice it at all.
The higher the level of the skill, the more exquisite it is, and it is also rare to see.
Cultivators practice the four key points of Dharma, couples, wealth, and land. Dharma is the first point. It can be seen that a good practice is the foundation of practice.
The reason why Liu Yu practices the wood-based skill "Huangmu Peiyuan Gong" is not to choose the powerful metal-based skills in the sect or the earth-based skills that are excellent for defense. I just want to practice the "Huangmu Peiyuan Gong" a little faster, hoping to advance to the foundation building stage or even a higher realm in my lifetime.
Liu Yu woke up from her cultivation state and opened the door. It was already late at night. After touching his stomach, he went to the dining hall next to Muyuan Yuan to eat. After practicing for more than ten hours, his stomach was already empty and he was unbearably hungry.
Liu Yu's cultivation level is only at the fifth level of the Qi training stage, and he is not yet able to live without grain. Although you don’t have to eat three meals a day like ordinary people, you must eat one meal every day. Otherwise, not only will your body feel hungry, but your practice will also be affected. Only when cultivators reach the golden elixir stage can they truly achieve the goal of fasting without eating or drinking, or needing to eat to satisfy their hunger.
In addition to thousands of sect disciples on Huang Sheng Mountain, there are also thousands of ordinary mortals. The daily lives of Huang Sheng Sect disciples are taken care of by these mortals. There are hundreds of large and small dining halls built on Huangsheng Mountain, which are managed by these mortals.
Hundreds of dining halls keep the stoves running day and night, and prepare all kinds of exquisite dishes for Huang Shengzong disciples to enjoy. Because the meal times of the disciples in the sect are erratic, which is different from the three meals a day for ordinary people.
"Junior Brother Liu, where are you going?" A tall, thin monk in white robes opened the door and walked out of the bamboo room No. 17 next to him. I guess I came out of the house specifically when I heard Liu Yu's door opening.
"It's Senior Brother Li! I'm just going to the dining hall for dinner. Senior Brother, don't you have a mission?" Liu Yu took a few steps and turned around when he heard the voice.
The tall and thin monk was named Li Chen, and he was at the seventh level of Qi training. His father was the king of Yue in the secular world, so he was the heir apparent, and his family background was extraordinary. Logically speaking, he should not pay attention to ordinary disciples like Liu Yu, but he was willing to talk to Liu Yu and was one of the few friends who Liu Yu could have a few words with.
"I'm hungry too, let's go together!" Li Chen patted his stomach, then stepped forward to follow Liu Yu and said.
"Hey, senior brother was assigned to guard the Huangyu Palace a few days ago, but he has gained a lot of knowledge. I will sit down and talk to you later. Junior Brother Liu, didn't you say you were guarding the medicine field last time?" Li Chen said next to him. He said while gesticulating as he walked.
"No need to go anymore, the mission is completed." Liu Yu replied casually.
Among the rows of bamboo houses, only a few have lights on, and most of them are unused. Most of the owners are traveling abroad due to sect duties and do not live here. The moonlight was blocked by clouds, making the surroundings pitch black. In the stillness of the night, the sounds of various birds and animals could be heard in the distance from time to time, mixed with the sounds of unknown insects.
The two chatted for a while and soon arrived at the dining hall. The dining hall is brightly lit and can be seen from a distance. Because it was built next to Muyuanyuan, this dining hall mainly took care of the catering for the disciples living in Muyuanyuan, and it was named Muyuantang.
Muyuantang is built of bluestone and thatch, and is quite large. There are more than a hundred long tables in the hall, which can accommodate thousands of people dining at the same time.
At this time, there were more than twenty people sitting here and there, two or three people at a table. There were few words spoken, and it seemed to be extremely quiet. Liu and Yu found a long table by the window and sat down. Soon a middle-aged lady wearing a soap-colored top came over carrying a pot of hot tea.
"Immortal, if you want to eat something, I will prepare it!" After making tea, the woman took out a rice paper food list from the end board, laid it on the long table, and then stood with her head lowered. Waiting on the edge.
"Steamed red carp, oily venison, white grass crane blood soup, junior brother! What do you want to order." Li Chen said casually, showing that he was very familiar with the food.
"Add another plate of steamed brocade eggs." Liu Yu is no stranger to the name of the dish on the menu. The brocade eggs are fragrant and refreshing and melt in your mouth. Liu Yu hasn't tasted it for a few days and is a little greedy.
"Yes, yes, brocade egg, I almost forgot! Hehe!" Li Chen from the opposite side immediately followed with excitement. I saw Li Chen picking up the tea cup and drinking a few cups, with a smile on his face and his little eyes staring straight over. Liu Yu's heart sank, this chatter was about to start a long speech.
Liu Yu knew in her heart that Li Chen was willing to make friends with him, largely because she could listen to him patiently.
