Without looking at Mu Taoist's confused face, Zhao Qing raised his head and looked upward.
Golden sunlight shines through the side windows at the top of the hall, reflecting the dust in the air.
To the human eye, the air is empty, but under the sun, it is filled with diffuse dust.
And does the inner strength and true energy developed through martial arts also conform to this principle?
Under the induction of mind power, true qi does indeed exist, but once the true qi loses its induction and cannot be controlled, is this the same as dispersing gong?
In Zhao Qing's understanding, the entire "Tianwu Nerve" is actually teaching practitioners with practical examples that the spirit is essentially higher than the internal energy.
As your mental strength changes, your true energy will also change accordingly.
In a sense, "Tianwu Nerve" has never actually had such a thing as dissipation of skills. The temporary dissipation of skills is just a loss of spiritual induction and has never left the body of the practitioner.
In this situation where the power suddenly condenses and then dissipates, the author hopes that practitioners of "Tianwu Nerve" can understand this principle more deeply.
The restriction on how it can be completed after forty years is roughly intended to provide a suitable compensation to those practitioners who have been unable to understand the key for a long time.
For many years, "The Magical Art of Wedding Clothes" has been called "Martial Arts Zen" and requires sudden enlightenment. However, "Tianwu Ning" requires no less enlightenment than it does.
What is virtual and what is real?
Is the spirit empty? And the internal energy is real? Why can't it be reversed? How to reverse it?
"Tianwu Shen" clearly states: By cultivating the divine chamber, the divine chamber will be complete, the great path will be achieved, and there will never be any leakage.
That's exactly what it's about.
Only when you realize this and realize the "transition between reality and reality" can you truly enter the palace of martial arts.
Mu Taoist relied on artistic conception and obsession to cultivate to the point of "returning to the true nature of the Yuxuan" and "no leakage in the divine chamber". Although he succeeded, he did not fully understand the principles behind it.
This is also the reason why after he completed the cultivation twenty years ago, he practiced hard for many years and only accumulated more skills without making any breakthroughs.
…
After staring at the sun for a long time, Zhao Qing suddenly let out a clear whistle and sat cross-legged on the ground in the stone hall. He closed his eyes and began to cultivate his luck.
Mu Taoren stood by the side for a while with his bulging and painful Dantian, and then sat down to rest.
He looked at Zhao Qing with strange eyes, unable to understand what the other person was thinking.
Could it be that the way you practice "Tianwu Nerve" is completely wrong? Decades of understanding have gone astray?
This is really impossible. After all, after completing the cultivation, the martial arts will be greatly improved, which is real and unreal.
Mu Daoren thought about it and found that although Zhao Qing did not seem to show any intention of implicating Ye Xue, he did not say it clearly, which made him fearful and even came up with the idea of taking advantage of the opportunity to attack.
However, the meridians in his limbs were weakened, and all the real power in his body was concentrated in the Dantian. The power he could use at this moment was not as good as that of a third- or fourth-rate mediocre person. It can only be said that he was completely powerless.
At the same time, even if there is no new damage in the remaining time, he will probably not survive until tomorrow morning.
He could only silently pray to the Sanqing Taoist Patriarch in his heart. If Zhao Qing was really not prepared to let Ye Xue go, he would definitely let her encounter the problem of being possessed this time.
…
The sunlight that originally shone directly from the window on the top of the hall gradually tilted up.
Time passed slowly, and the aura on Zhao Qing's body alternated eight times.
If you can calm down and listen, you will find that the sound of blood flowing in her body gradually gives off a somewhat light and transparent feeling.
This is one of the key features of breaking through and entering the realm of "Jade Mystery Returning to True Truth", which cleanses the blood and energy channels.
Suddenly, her eyes suddenly opened, emitting a breathtaking light, like a bolt of lightning in the void.
Mu Taoren glanced at the side and couldn't help being surprised, wondering whether Zhao Qing had really made a major improvement in his internal strength, and whether what she just said was true.
true.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Qing's eyes narrowed and he met his own eyes, as if his thoughts rushed into his spiritual world.
His eyes gradually became dull, and the sleepiness deep in his soul spread to every corner of his body in an instant, and his vision became pitch black.
…
It turns out that after Zhao Qing auditioned the Eight Secrets of the Wu family in "Tianwu Nerv" with his spirit and energy, he suddenly had an idea, perhaps due to some guidance from somewhere.
She decided to take advantage of the opportunity when Mu Taoist's skills were shrinking in his Dantian and his mental strength was fading, to use her consciousness to invade his spiritual world, and to find out in one fell swoop the environment and process of his cultivation of "Jade Xuan Guizhen".
Although she got a lot of inspiration from "Tianwu Nerve", she was able to perform such a wonderful method not only because she fell into a super-sensory epiphany at this time, but also because the thoughts in Mu Taoist's heart at this moment were also in line with His breakthrough that year is closely related.
It does not mean that she has the ability to read through the memories of people with average martial arts at will - and generally speaking, the memories of people with low martial arts are not of much use to her.
Zhao Qing's mind was concentrating and contracting. The environment of the surrounding stone hall disappeared in an instant, and the colors withered in an instant, turning into gray-black representing nothingness.
When the light around her reappeared, she had already traveled back to Wudang Mountain twenty years ago and arrived at an ancient, tall and spacious Taoist temple.
Could it be that this situation of returning to the past can be regarded as another form of dreaming about the heavens?
If this is a dream, then is the owner of the dream Mu Taoist or myself?
Zhao Qing's heart was filled with ups and downs, and he suddenly had such a question.
…
Twenty years ago, Wudang Mountain Zhenwu Temple, Sanqing Hall.
The lights inside the hall are brilliant, and there are a total of 72 ever-burning lanterns inside and outside, symbolizing Wudang's lofty majesty in the world.
There are some chairs placed in the hall, not many in number.
There are not many people who are qualified to have seats here. There have always been only high-level figures from major forces.
The evening bell rang, and Wudang leader Mei Taoist, wearing a purple gold Taoist crown and a seven-star sword on his waist, slowly walked out and took the first seat on the main seat, escorted by four Taoist boys holding law enforcement weapons. Top position.
Mu Taoist sat on the second chair and looked towards the entrance of the hall, his face full of brilliance, as if he was expecting something.
There were not many guests. They entered the hall one after another and sat in their seats under the guidance of the road boy.
Zhao Qing found somewhat strangely that he had become one of the guests and had his own seat, integrating into the environment here without any hindrance.
In confusion, she secretly used her inner strength to successfully lift the clothes of an old man next to her from the air.
This is how the same thing? Automatically gave me an identity that allowed me to physically contact others? Rather than the imaginary perspective of God?
Does this mean that I can change the course of history here under certain circumstances? However, this is probably of no use, and may actually wake up the Mu Taoist who has fallen into the spiritual world.
What we should really consider is, how can I understand Mu Taoist's changes in mood now and understand the specific process of his breakthrough?
This kind of "dream" was the first time for her, and she didn't know the specific circumstances.
Although he successfully entered Mu Taoist's spiritual world through a sudden idea, what he should do next still needs to be carefully explored.
After glancing at the much younger Taoist Mu in the second seat, Zhao Qing looked at the others and recognized Taoist Mei in the main seat and Monk Iron Shoulder in the guest seat.
The remaining guests were mostly prestigious martial arts seniors twenty years ago. They had died twenty years later and could not be identified. Monk Tiejian has also gone from being one of the ordinary guardian elders of Shaolin to becoming one of the four great monks in charge of the temple and the world of Shaolin.
While she was looking at it, two rows of Taoists in purple clothes and black crowns entered the hall. Among them, two tall Taoists were particularly eye-catching, with two firm swords coming out of their bodies.
meaning.
Zhao Qing knew in his heart that these two people should be Shi Yan and Shi He, Taoist Mei and Taoist Mu respectively, the most outstanding disciples of the younger generation of Wudang at that time.
Among them, Shi He, who was carefully guided by Mu Taoren, is even better in martial arts and swordsmanship, and is vaguely regarded as the next generation of Wudang masters.
It seems that what is about to happen is that Shi He is exposed to have violated the sect's rules, deprived of the inheritance rights of the sect leader, and commits suicide in anger and rebels against the sect?
When the two rows of disciples stood still, Taoist Mei stood up, took two steps forward, personally lit the candle on the sacred eucalyptus altar, and then methodically completed the procedures of the ceremony of passing on the head.
Among the guests below, after thinking for a while, Zhao Qing peeked into Gu Xi's heart. The previous understanding of "virtual reality" once again rippled in her mind, and she re-entered a state of ethereal and lofty spirit.
Suddenly, she realized that her spirit seemed to be connected to another person, and she felt an emotion full of expectation and excitement.
Could this sudden feeling be the emotion of Mu Taoist?
After further careful and subtle sensing, the thoughts in Mu Daoren's mind became clearer.
As expected, he was still kept in the dark by Taoist Mei. He was holding on to the hope that Shi He would soon inherit the position of leader. Even in his excitement, he even had some thoughts of retiring and living in seclusion after the ceremony.
Reflecting Taoist Mu's feelings at the moment, Zhao Qing couldn't help but feel a bit of pity.
After all, the current Mu Taoist has not turned evil as he did later. As a famous Wudang star, he can be regarded as a chivalrous and righteous person.
She deeply explored Mu Taoist's emotions, and soon understood that she could indirectly deduce the key elements and processes of his mental breakthrough based on his emotional changes.
This should be the important gain from her trip.
…
Soon, the ceremony had reached the last step: announcing the ownership of the head and handing over the seven-star sword and purple gold crown.
Under the gaze of Taoist Mu and others, Shi Yan and Shi He stood quietly, waiting for Taoist Mei who was in front of the divine eucalyptus to take a deep breath, look around, and prepare to announce the ownership of the position of leader.
