The training center's martial arts hall looks like an inconspicuous steel-concrete building from the outside, and it's the same inside.
The wooden floor was laid out in several basketball court-sized areas, and people were already practicing in each area.
There is an open space on one side of the wall where a standing sign is placed. Wen Yuan walked over and took off the sign, then laid the knife horizontally on the ground.
"This land is for our use in the afternoon. The past few days of your fasting are all for this afternoon's practice. But you have to be prepared, it may be a bit hard."
He handed the glucose to Shangluo: "Are you very hungry now? Your stomach is empty?"
"I feel like I'm going to collapse at any moment."
"That's right. I will explain the training plan to you first, and then complete it according to the indicators. First of all, this bottle of glucose is not for you to satisfy your hunger, it is just for you to warm up. During the warm-up, you must use up this glucose Consume it, and move harder when the time comes, it is best to squeeze out all your physical energy. Then I will drink the bottled sea of qi at this time, so that you can rely on true qi instead of relying on food for energy - this is called the Fetal Breathing Technique , Theoretically, this is the normal state of immortals in the golden elixir stage. Only immortals in the golden elixir stage can use golden elixirs to replace the physiological circulation in the body. According to modern theory, even if they are thrown into a vacuum, they can continue to move."
"Thrown it?"
"How is it possible to throw it away? It's just theoretically possible. In fact, let alone the immortals in the Golden Elixir stage, even the heavenly beings in the Foundation Establishment stage will be born on their own hundreds of years after their birth, and will not stay in the world for too long. So. We don’t know how many heavenly beings are alive now, nor how many golden elixir stage immortals are alive, and we don’t know even further.”
"So it turns out that the imperial court still has a way to practice to the golden elixir stage?"
"There are those who have reached the Nascent Soul stage and even higher. But at my level, I can only know these. I will probably know more after becoming a celestial being, and maybe my interest will attract a group of celestial beings."
"Well, let's not talk about it. It is indeed possible. After all, the things that need to be discussed between heaven and man are different. But after the Qi Practitioner reaches the next level, will there be any specific breakthroughs? In addition to the difference in power level."
"You can tell it by looking at the name. In the foundation building stage, the air sea has just been opened, and you can cast spells at this time. In the golden elixir stage, the weekly movement of the golden elixir itself can replace the physiological needs of the outside world, and its own Existence is no longer affected by the external environment - that is, the realm of indestructibility and invulnerability of water and fire. If you reach the Nascent Soul stage, you will enter a higher level spiritually. In this regard, we have some exchanges with Rome, because alchemy The highest achievement of art reaches the same goal as us here."
"You mean, the man in the bottle?" If there was anything in alchemy that was close to the concept of Nascent Soul, the first thing that came to his mind was the man in the bottle.
"Yes, it is the man in the bottle, one of the ultimate pursuits of Roman alchemy. Alchemy, like us, believes that 'innate' is closest to the road - but not all innates are equally powerful. When Chaos first opened, under the Kunlun Mountains The Purple Gold Gourd is also divided into Grandpa Gourd and Grandson Gourd. As far as cultivation is concerned, although even I have an innate body, just having an innate body is not enough, because the Great Dao cannot be touched with the physical body. This is the role of Nascent Soul, The so-called refining qi to transform into a god, you have to use the Nascent Soul to transform into a god, because the god is not outside, but inside.”
"What if from an alchemical perspective, the little man in the bottle could be born omniscient?"
"Hmm, I don't know." Wen Yuan shook his head, "But it stands to reason that if you can use your spiritual consciousness to read all things, you can indeed answer all questions. But there is a fundamental difference between the Yuanying created by alchemy and us. , even our Nascent Soul is still ourselves, but the person in the bottle created by alchemy is completely another individual. I personally have some doubts about whether that kind of thing can be called a 'person', although it is indeed true in terms of attributes. It’s people.”
"Did the Romans really refine it?"
"No, at least not as far as I know. I have heard that some alchemists went astray in order to create people in bottles. For example, they hoped to use lightning to condense wisdom into the bodies of people they pieced together. , and finally condensed some terrible artificial people, which were finally dealt with by the inner guards. But if they can really succeed and really make a serious villain in a bottle, it should also have a great effect. For example, they You can ask for the formula for the Philosopher’s Stone—if you’re here, you can ask for the formula for the Foundation Establishment Pill.”
Apollonia suddenly jumped out:
[Don’t think too much. I’m not a mutilated thing like the man in the bottle. I have my own body. Although the real man in the bottle is also very scary, the Romans have not yet created a real man in the bottle. 】
"Are there any artificial humans?"
[In your mind, that should be a Frankenstein monster like Frankenstein - yes, and it was dealt with. Those artificial humans are limited by their incomplete bodies and have irrepressible shortcomings. Their mere existence will cause big problems. So it will be cleared out by the inner guards immediately. So the interior defense is really hard, and this is the path Roma has chosen. The more they expand at the boundaries of the external world, the greater their karma becomes, and the easier it is for them to create karma that is difficult to control. 】
"They work really hard."
[Ha, although they worked hard, they all gained something in the end. Because Frankenstein also has true knowledge that falls from thunder and lightning, to them it is like a treasure chest running around, and they usually lack the will to fight and are easily subdued. I'm afraid they would like to have more easy tasks like this, instead of having to encounter tricky things like the Golden Bough Ceremony every time. But then again, this is the first time I know about the specific content of the Golden Elixir and Nascent Soul Stage. It's nice to have an obedient little man in a bottle. 】
"Does that count for you?"
[I can indeed calculate it, so now you are enjoying part of the rights of the Nascent Soul Stage. And the Nascent Soul can leave the body, right? I can also leave my body. It's just that I really need to use some carriers to exert my power. You can lend me that set of divine chrome armor and follow me to cheer. Just add one bottle and I can run for ten minutes. If the radish tube is enough, I can keep running. 】
"This is the fifth person to co-write, right? Then why don't I dress myself?"
[Because it is a bit difficult. There is still too much chromium, and it is very difficult for me to control it. It is enough to be used as a human shield, and the body in the golden elixir stage is no more than that. But if I have to break branches or climb a tree, I'm afraid I won't be able to climb it at all. Bottled Qihai is not such a waste. So I can attract firepower for you, but the final score is still up to you. 】
