On the way back, the carriage moved very slowly. The two of them sat in the carriage for a whole day, drinking river water when they were thirsty and grilling fish and shrimp when they were hungry.
The Chu Gong incident was still the most troublesome. Sun Zikai had to run a mile away to solve it, or run out and leave Jiang Yujin to solve it by herself by the car.
Sun Zikai always ran to the car. It turned out that Jiang Yujin took out some books from the Song Dynasty from his bracelet. They were involved in all walks of life. Jiang Yujin marked the price of each book. Every time he read a book, he would get a kickback from that piece of gold. , In this way, Sun Zikai still watched tirelessly.
"Eh? Why is the price of this book three gold pieces? Did you mark it wrong? I still owe you two gold pieces?" Sun Zikai closed the book cover, fearing that he would accidentally open it.
After Jiang Yujin took a look at it, he said, "That's a book on spiritual practice."
"Really! Then I... I look down on it." Sun Zikai discussed, "How about we switch, and I teach you my way of cultivation, and you give me this book."
"I don't want your heresy."
"Okay." Sun Zikai was not greedy and put the book aside obediently.
Jiang Yujin picked up the book, read it for a while, and said, "This is what my third brother's master left to him. My third brother is the prince."
"Your third brother's surname is Tai?"
Jiang Yujin helplessly explained to him what the prince, crown prince, prince, etc. were.
"Third brother has always hidden it from us. I didn't expect him to put it in the treasury." She turned a few more pages, her brows furrowed for a while, and she clicked her tongue in doubt. After a dozen breaths, she said: "Practice The first step is to temper your body.”
Sun Zikai was delighted when he heard this and said: "I have realized that I am on the right track. The way of my cultivation includes the way of tempering the body."
But then he felt something was wrong. He had killed the practitioner who was flying with a weapon with one punch. If the entrance to the spiritual energy path was to temper the body, how could it be like this? After thinking about it, maybe these two types of quenching bodies do not mean the same thing.
Jiang Yujin deliberately read out loud, and Sun Zikai reminded her: "I can hear it."
Jiang Yujin rolled her eyes at him and continued reading...
As night fell and there was no cloud under the moon, Jiang Yujin stepped out of the car and found Sun Zikai standing on the roof of the car with one foot, closing his eyes and meditating.
Jiang Yujin walked to the river, raised her hands in a bow, and whispered: "Continuous Breath." She took a deep breath, exhaled, inhaled, exhaled... When her lungs were hot, she reached out her hands and slid forward. Heel your feet, step on the elephant of fighting in the sky, exhale cloud breath, go to the tenth floor, your body and bones will feel tired, turn around and exhale for a long time, just exhale without stopping. When the lungs are exhausted, if there is a trace of cold air entering the throat, then it will It's aura.
If no one guides the disciples, they must repeat it at least a hundred times before it can be effective. It is not until all the breaths they inhale are spiritual energy that they have started. Then they will nourish themselves with the spiritual energy, so that the body can be constantly tempered and spiritualized, and it will be easier to communicate with the spiritual energy of the weather. Fusion, this is the first level of spiritual energy cultivation - the body tempering stage.
Jiang Yujin followed the method recorded in the book and walked ten times. Suddenly she felt a cold current in her throat. She was overjoyed and shouted to Sun Zikai, "I feel it, it's spiritual energy!"
Unexpectedly, after the sound, Sun Zikai, who had closed his eyes and was in meditation, moved. He lowered his legs, opened his lips slightly, and suddenly a large amount of visible air came out. Then the surrounding aura suddenly changed, with him as the center, forming a wind wave. In an instant, the direction of the air flow reversed, and the color of the aura changed. Sun Zikai opened his eyes, but saw that his eyes were cold blue, and everything around him was crowded, The wind sees the form.
After a few breaths, he bit off the Qi River, everything disappeared, and his expression was a little disappointed.
Jiang Yujin asked hurriedly: "What were you doing just now?"
"Feel the spiritual energy. I thought that spiritual energy was some kind of divine power. After working on it for a long time, I found out that it is a form of energy, and it is still a dabbler. A piece of pure energy can turn into at least hundreds of spiritual energy, but the spiritual energy itself It’s a technique, and it’s true that it has its own power.”
Jiang Yujin couldn't understand, so Sun Zikai simply told her that according to the mental method she read, he not only felt the spiritual energy, but also succeeded in tempering the body. The body tempering he mentioned was exactly his method of tempering the body. The original spiritual energy It can condense the essence of spirit, and after blending into the skin texture, it can greatly improve one's perception and integration of surrounding spiritual energy. However, this is not as good as useless to Sun Zikai, because he can directly complete the swallowing of energy, and the effect is higher than The effect of soul quenching is hundreds of times more than that.
"You are from the sect, you are lying to me!"
"I've told you a thousand times, I really am not."
"Then you have no one to teach you!"
"Yes, so I can only figure it out on my own. That kind of spiritual energy is also a kind of air or wind. As long as I catch a trace of it, I can pull out more spiritual energy with the wind. It's very simple."
"Bah! You're just bragging, you just came from the sect."
"Idiot princess!"
"Bragging asshole!"
An hour later, Sun Zikai and Jiang Yujin sat next to each other. Sun Zikai explained to her what energy, vitality, and the infinite method of changing rules were, and he even told her his own body tempering method without reservation.
Jiang Yujin was fascinated by what she heard, and couldn't help but look at the young man's face. Her mood couldn't calm down for a long time, and she said: "I have never heard of such a thing. Everyone knows that everything is born from spiritual energy, but you actually said otherwise. "
Sun Zikai said: "I can only understand some heresies. Maybe the spiritual energy I just felt is not the real spiritual energy."
"But you are really powerful. You are a genius. What my third brother calls you, that kind of talent. You were born specifically for practice."
Sun Zikai said: "Actually, spiritual energy cultivation is not necessarily that powerful. I once fought with a practitioner who controlled flying weapons. He was not my opponent at all. By the way, the day I met you, he was killed by one punch from me. Killed!"
Jiang Yujin was shocked and said: "Are you sure you are flying with a royal weapon? Is it flying?"
"yes."
"You lie and you brag!"
"Why did I lie to you?"
"Then you swear you won't lie to me again."
"I never lied to you."
"you swear!"
"I swear, if I lie to you, I won't die a good death, okay."
"Then you really killed the man who flew the weapon?"
"Yes!" Sun Zikai said helplessly, "Although I attacked first, he is really weak."
Jiang Yujin whispered: "Oh my god, you can actually kill the person who formed the pill."
"What pill formation?"
Jiang Yujin explained: "After tempering the body, there is Qi condensation. After Qi condensation, there is Qi training. After Qi training, there is foundation building. After foundation building, there is Gu Yuan. After Gu Yuan, there is Ji Ling. After Ji Ling, there is pill formation. Pill formation is The first threshold in the path of spiritual practice is also one of the most difficult to pass. The finished product of elixir formation determines the upper limit of subsequent practice. It takes decades or even hundreds of years to form elixir. After the elixir is completed, the aura of the weather can be stored. Raise ordinary things into spiritual thrones, and move with weapons. Therefore, practitioners who can fly in the sky are all extremely powerful people after forming pills. We have only one in the Song Dynasty, and he is my third brother’s master. You can actually kill him. The person who has completed the elixir?"
"This...I..." Sun Zikai doubted himself for a while, "Maybe I...I remembered it wrong? Isn't he flying? No, he is just flying."
If there had not been a sneak attack, of course the result would not have been like that. But at that time, the person who formed the pill did not take Sun Zikai seriously at all. It is right to think about it. Sun Zikai has no aura in him, and in the eyes of practitioners, he is just an ordinary person. , who would have known that this kid first drained him of all his energy, then drained him into a dying old man, and finally came with a punch that was more than a thousand times the maximum strength of an adult, with the light of the sun still on his fist...
The more Sun Zikai thought about it, the more suspicious he became, and his tone became less and less confident. He said, "Maybe I made a mistake. He is just a fake, pretending to be a practitioner..." He shook his head again, denying this idea and ruling it out. In all situations, the most impossible must become possible.
"The person I killed should be the one who formed the core, but thanks to my sneak attack, he didn't have time to react. If he really pulled away, he could crush me. Don't tell anyone about this, I'll tell you one thing."
It was late at night, and the two of them sat by the river and put their feet into the river. The flowing water was extremely cool. The two of them sat on their backs, feeling comfortable. Jiang Yujin took out the knife from Sun Zikai's waist.
Han Che's sword reflected the stars in the sky under the light of the water. Jiang Yujin said: "Why is this sword a little curved, eh? It's single-edged, eh? This is a sword. Why is it such a thin sword and so long? What if If you cut it on the armor, it won't break."
"So you have to kill quickly and don't give the opponent a chance to react or defend. I kill the barbarian with one move. I swing the knife fast and don't have to think about anything. It brings results, and what I need is the result. "
"How can a cultivator wield a sword to hack and kill?"
"So I'm a heretic."
"Teach me, I want to learn."
"Learn this?"
"Well, the money was paid and included in the gold."
"Then how can I earn all your gold?"
Jiang Yujin thought for a moment and then said: "You taught me... you know everything."
Sun Zikai jumped up, untied his waist rope, took off his shirt, revealing his strong muscles, and slashed his body with the blade of the knife. The knife seemed to have hit an iron object, and sparks shot out. Sun Zikai said: "I can teach you to temper your body. , gathering the essence of heaven and earth, making you powerful and useless, and your skin as hard as iron.”
"Go to hell!" Jiang Yujin covered her face, peering through her fingers, and shouted, "Who wants to imitate you? Put on your clothes!"
"Oh." Sun Zikai got dressed. But he said distressedly: "If you don't learn this, if I teach you other things, you won't learn as thoroughly as me. But if you learn it, you will still give me the gold."
Sun Zikai didn't intend to teach the way of energy and vitality, and he couldn't teach it at all, but the introduction to energy was still possible.
"Give me your hand."
"what."
"Give me."
"No!"
"Whether you want to learn or not!"
"study!"
"Then give it to me!" Sun Zikai grabbed his hand, "Look at your aggressive nature, it seems like no one cares about touching your hand."
"Then you still touch it!"
"I'm happy! It's soft and delicious!"
Jiang Yujin turned away angrily and said angrily: "Teach me quickly."
As soon as she finished speaking, a gentle warm current slipped through the palm of her hand. She turned back curiously, but there was nothing in her hand. She was about to ask, but suddenly she felt another warm current passing through her face. But she couldn't see anything.
Sun Zikai grabbed her hand and bent towards the water. Before touching the water, Sun Zikai said: "Aura is nothing, welcome to the energy world!"
The moment her fingers touched the water, Jiang Yujin seemed to be touching tens of thousands of flowing silk. She opened her eyes and looked carefully. What she saw was indeed river water, but what she felt was indeed countless silk threads.
"What is that? Is it energy?"
"No, not yet." Sun Zikai grabbed Jiang Yujin's hand and held up a handful of water. A lot of water fell from his palm, leaving only a puddle. "Close your eyes and I will let you feel the real energy."
Jiang Yujin closed her eyes. All the sensations in her body seemed to be dissipating, but the water in her palms had "life". They crawled up along the skin. Suddenly, they began to turn and decompose into smaller "creatures". ", they are jumping everywhere, possessing endless energy. But in the next breath, "order" appeared, and all living things began to rotate in one direction, then the second direction, and the third direction...
She felt that there was a wind ball holding in her palm, and it was spinning faster and faster. She slowly opened her eyes, but there was nothing in her palm.
"Huh?"
"What's wrong."
"It's strange, obviously there is."
"Of course."
"where?"
"Look." Sun Zikai took a deep breath, and a large amount of visible airflow appeared, and then blew towards Jiang Yujin's palm. In an instant, energy appeared, really appeared. It was countless light rays as thin as hair, very short, they rotated at super high speeds, and turned into a dazzling ball of light according to the rules and order they were given.
The energy is tangible, and it brings up the wind. The wind picks up the water, and the water picks up the sand, spiraling up, attracting all things to follow each other in an order, and forming new things in sequence. The order expanded layer by layer and assimilated everything it touched. The rotating wind stirred up the yellow sand within three miles.
The wind roared loudly, and Jiang Yujin shouted: "Is this energy?"
Sun Zikai shouted: "Yes, the purest and most essential energy, like silk and thread, is just energy, it makes up everything."
"How everything is composed!"
"Look!" Sun Zikai grabbed Jiang Yujin's hand, looked into the energy ball, and then pulled out a strand of energy thread, "The way of Wuji, the way of rules, gives energy a regular order..." The energy thread was guided to form a new structure. When the structure was fixed, it immediately swallowed up a large amount of energy spontaneously in the world. Sun Zikai had not noticed this before, thinking that only things like stones were forming and decomposing forms. , will there be large-scale energy transfer. From this point of view, the same is true for things like water and fire.
The energy threads were tied into energy knots, and suddenly, visible to the naked eye, the group of energy threads took on the "form" of energy, which was a water droplet. The water droplets fell and entered the river. In an instant, the whole river lit up. The sky-blue river water was made up of countless "energy knots". Then, every grain of sand also shone with light, and soon the entire desert was lit up. It was bright, and the earth reflected the aurora towards the sky. The sky was lit up, and countless energy forms appeared, moving slowly under the guidance of the wind with shape and light.
Jiang Yujin was so drunk that she felt her body became much lighter, "This... this is the world you see."
"No, I have to concentrate and go through some processes before I can see such a scene. I usually directly sense the location and changes of energy, not in such detail."
"What is that?" Jiang Yujin pointed to a large area of special things between heaven and earth, like mist.
Sun Zikai said: "That is aura, which is a 'form' constructed of energy filaments under order."
"If there is a lot of it, wouldn't it be a place with abundant spiritual energy? If there is very little, wouldn't it be a place with poor spiritual energy that my third brother said?"
"Energy is everywhere, but not all energy in any place will be converted into aura. From this point of view, my cultivation method is more powerful. Aura is nothing!"
"Hey, you haven't entered the sect and come into contact with the real way of cultivation."
"That's right. I also think that if I have the chance, I must take a look at the orthodox way of cultivation."
The feeling will slowly fade and disappear, the light will dim, slowly shrink, and finally, the light balls in their hands will disappear. But Jiang Yujin's heart seemed to be beating. She saw the appearance of the new world, and the confusion of the past was swept away. She felt refreshed and very excited.
But at this moment, he saw Sun Zikai grabbing his beautiful hand and bringing it to his mouth.
"What are you doing."
Sun Zikai, who was caught in the act, smiled, took it to his hand and smelled it, and said, "The texture of your skin must be different. The fragrance has not dissipated. You may have also tempered your body, but you just don't know it." After that, he sniffed it again, and even wanted to condense the essence in his hand based on his feeling.
Pull out your hand, exhale, snap...a crisp slap...
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" Jiang Yujin was the one crying in pain. Her hand became swollen within a few breaths, causing her to howl and cry in pain.
"Oh, I told you, I have a head of brass and an iron arm, and my skin is extremely hard."
Jiang Yujin just cried and howled non-stop. Sun Zikai was so busy that he grabbed her hand and plunged it into the river...
The next day, the carriage moved even slower. Jiang Yujin’s whole hand was swollen into pig’s trotters. Sitting in the carriage, she glared at Sun Zikai with a resentful look on her face and said angrily: “Deduct money!”
"Deduct...deduct as much as you want."
"All deducted, now start from the beginning."
"All right."
"I want to learn!"
"What to study?"
"Learn energy!"
"Ha, energy is not a technique, how can you learn it?"
"I don't care, I have to learn."
"Then you have to sense energy first. However, as for energy, you have to let the energy level in your body reach a certain level before you can sense the energy from the outside world."
"What energy level?"
Sun Zikai explained: "It's the level of energy in our body. The stronger your body, the higher the energy level, and vice versa. You have to train yourself to be strong enough. Let me teach you how to use a sword. Or boxing.”
"No, I want to use the sword."
"Okay."
Jiang Yujin asked curiously: "What will happen if your energy level is very high?"
When Sun Zikai talked about this, he was full of energy and said: "Anyway, I realized it myself. I fixed the energy level at a few levels. If we humans raise the energy level to a certain height, we will no longer be human."
"what is that?"
"Long Ren, I call that level Long Ren."
"This sounds awful, teach me how to use a sword tomorrow."
"Oh, I don't know swordsmanship. I can only teach you how to kill people with a sword."
