Yuquan Mountain, beside Qixing Lake.
Early in the morning, Zhao Yuding, Xiangxiu, Liang Yu, Huiyi, Zhao Qingxuan, Bai Ningbing and others gathered here and waited quietly for Li Su.
In front of everyone, there was a three-legged black tripod that was three feet high.
"This boy has quite a sense of ritual." Zhao Yuding brushed his beard and said with a smile, "Before building the foundation, I also thought about taking a shower and changing clothes."
"Maybe it's not about bathing and changing clothes." Xiangxiu said softly.
"That is?" Zhao Yuding was surprised.
"Place Ning Bing's sister." Xiangxiu said, "Don't forget, the Yuquan Spiritual Mirror is in his hand, and Ningshuang is in the spiritual mirror."
"It's possible." Zhao Yuding nodded, brushing his beard.
Bai Ningbing's heart tightened slightly. She couldn't control her nervousness when she thought that her sister and Li Su had already talked. She was very worried that her sister might reveal a flaw, or she couldn't bear it and slapped her junior brother Li Su away.
"Sister, I was responsible for all the troubles you got into in the past. This time, you can't hold your sister back..." Bai Ningbing's eyes were a little wandering.
In the past, she and her sister often took the blame on each other...as if they could feel justified in taking the blame as long as they did not cause it themselves.
"Here we come." Zhao Qingxuan said softly.
Everyone looked at the corner of a mountain road ahead.
Li Su walked briskly and caught everyone's attention.
The first thing he saw was the three-legged black cauldron.
"Does the foundation building of the cauldron mean that the foundation is built in the cauldron?" Li Su muttered, walked a few steps quickly, and quickly arrived at the Qixing Lake.
"Master."
"Uncle Xiangxiu Master."
"Second Senior Sister."
"Third Senior Sister."
"Fourth Senior Sister."
"Sixth Senior Sister."
Li Su greeted in turn.
"How are you preparing?" Zhao Yuding asked warmly.
Li Su smiled and said: "Everything is ready, just waiting to build the foundation."
"In that case, let's just jump in." Xiangxiu's red lips parted lightly.
Li Su looked at the three-legged black cauldron, nodded, and then jumped directly into the black cauldron.
Inside the black cauldron, it was as dark as night.
Li Su looked up and found that he could not see the sky outside the cauldron clearly, and everything he saw was dark.
"Are you ready?" Xiangxiu's voice came into the black cauldron.
Li Su took a breath and nodded: "Okay."
The words fell.
A violent wind suddenly erupted inside the black cauldron.
"That's not right." Li Sugong stabilized his body and his eyelids twitched.
The violent wind did not attack his body, but swept away all the clothes on his body.
Including the shoes and socks on his feet.
"Spirit mirror, storage bag..." Li Su was very calm.
Outside the three-legged black cauldron.
Li Su's clothes, Yuquan Spirit Mirror, and storage bags flew out of the black tripod and landed on the grass by the lake.
Seeing the palm-sized Yuquan Spiritual Mirror, Bai Ningbing's eyes flashed, and she immediately moved her right hand and grabbed the Yuquan Spiritual Mirror in the air.
"Disciple, do you know what foundation building is?" Zhao Yuding asked softly as he sat cross-legged outside the three-legged black cauldron.
Inside the three-legged black cauldron.
Li Su muttered: "Foundation building is the cornerstone of subsequent cultivation, just like the foundation of a tall building. The stronger the foundation, the taller the tall building that can be built.
The same is true in the process of cultivation. The more solid the foundation-building realm, the higher the height that can be achieved in subsequent cultivation. "
"What is the sign of the completion of body tempering?" Zhao Yuding asked again.
"The great achievement of body quenching... the inner energy is generated." Li Su said slowly.
"Yes, as a martial artist, the sign of perfect body tempering is to temper the true energy from the outside to the inside." Zhao Yuding said softly, "This true energy does not belong to external objects, but your body. After undergoing refining, Born naturally.
Taoist qi refining nourishes the true qi from the inside out. In fact, the same is true. The true qi comes from your body. "
"Yes." Li Su nodded.
"What do you think body quenching relies on?" Zhao Yuding asked.
"Tempering the body..." Li Su muttered, "Practice, take supplements, and add exercises that suit you."
"The way of heaven is to make up for the excess of damage." Zhao Yuding said softly, "This sentence is very suitable for your body tempering state."
"Um... I can understand if it is not enough to make up for it. If there is more than enough damage... where is the damage?" Li Su was curious. In the body tempering realm, whether it is medicinal bathing or taking various tonics, it can be regarded as 'making up for the deficiency', but this He really didn't understand that there was more than enough damage.
"Fine." Zhao Yuding said.
"Fine?" Li Su opened his eyes wide.
"Refining Qi." Zhao Yuding said.
"Oh." Li Su suddenly realized it and thought to himself, it turned out that you were talking about this essence. I thought...
"Your body tempering realm has been perfected. Even if you don't deliberately build a foundation, you will naturally enter the foundation building realm in the future." Zhao Yuding said softly, "Now, you need to understand what your foundation building is."
"My foundation building..." Li Su whispered, waiting for the next step.
"Fill up." Zhao Yuding said.
"Fill it up?" Li Su was startled, not knowing what he meant.
Zhao Yuding explained: "Some people often say that the human body is as mysterious as the starry sky, with countless secrets inside the body, and there are endless acupoints hidden in the flesh and blood...
But the human body is only seven feet long after all. From the perspective of heaven and earth, the human body is as small as dust. "
Li Su thought for a while and said, "Master, I may need to be longer."
"What?" Zhao Yuding didn't react for a moment.
Xiangxiu said bluntly: "He said he is longer than seven feet."
Zhao Yuding's face twitched and he glared at the three-legged black cauldron.
"Be serious." Zhao Yuding was annoyed.
"oh."
Li Su, who was sitting cross-legged in the black tripod, was very well-behaved.
"You said before that foundation building is about laying the foundation, which is not true." Zhao Yuding continued to talk about foundation building, "In my teacher's view, martial arts foundation building is to make up for it."
"Make up? What's missing?" Li Su asked in a deep voice.
"If there is no shortage, make up for it." Zhao Yuding said.
"You can make up for it even if it's not lacking?" Li Su was startled.
Zhao Yuding said: "The way of heaven is to make up for the excess of damage; as a martial artist, you must go against heaven."
"Go against the will of heaven..." Li Su tasted these words.
"The stronger the foundation, the more sand needs to be filled." Zhao Yuding said.
Li Su thought thoughtfully and said hesitantly: "When I was in the body-tempering realm, I took a lot of powerful supplements, and my bloodline was also fused with the bloodline of a variety of alien beasts..."
"I said before that even if a martial artist in the Body Tempering Realm does not carry out special foundation building, he will naturally enter the Foundation Building Realm in the future." Zhao Yuding said, "The purpose of body tempering and Qi refining is to clear the body and open up many meridians. and acupoints.
Have you ever thought that you are a martial artist who constantly exercises your body and tempers your flesh and blood, but the acupuncture points in your body are not squeezed and flattened, but become more and more... Why is this? "
"..."
Li Su thought about it seriously. As his attainments in the body quenching realm became deeper and deeper, he could feel more and more acupuncture points in his body.
The acupoints and meridians are open, and the body has not been squeezed or flattened due to the beating.
