Song Xing smiled and nodded, and asked him to sit down at the table. He first taught him how to meditate and meditate, then briefly talked about the meridians of the human body and the movement of essence, and finally taught him the first-level practice method of "Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao" .
"Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao" is the foundation of all the magical arts of Qing Yun Sect. It was comprehended by Qing Yunzi from the unnamed ancient scroll two thousand years ago. After careful study by Qing Yun Sect masters of all generations, it is now The supreme Tao method that conquers the creation of heaven and earth and is unparalleled in mysteries.
The process of practicing Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao ranges from easy to difficult. Most people at the first level of the Jade Pure Realm can achieve it in the first year. But starting from later on, the difficulties and difficulties become apparent. At the second level, most people have to practice the five levels. Years ago, the third level was a watershed. Those with lower qualifications would stay here for their entire lives, while it was not uncommon for those with better qualifications to practice for fifty or sixty years.
Seeing Zhang Xiaofan dumbfounded and with a look of fear on his face, Song Xing smiled slightly, and then comforted him: "Everything is natural, cultivation is in the heart, and qualifications vary from person to person. Although the child who came with you is more talented than You, but as long as you stick to your true intentions and practice hard, your future achievements may not be lower than others."
Zhang Xiaofan lowered his head and whispered: "Jingyu has always been smart, unlike me, who has always been clumsy."
Halfway through, he looked up and saw Song Xing looking at him with a smile, and said with some stuttering: "Senior Brother, I will work hard to practice."
Song Xing smiled and shook his head and said: "Practice is to cultivate the mind. Junior brother, you must remember that you should never feel that you are inferior to others at any time. Our master was unknown among the many disciples of Qingyun Sect at the beginning, but now As the leader of a peak, his cultivation level is only inferior to that of the leader. Therefore, he despises those who feel sorry for themselves."
Zhang Xiaofan blinked, lowered his head and whispered, "Elder brother, I understand."
Song Xing taught Zhang Xiaofan the first three levels of Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao and gave him some common sense about subsequent exercises.
"After entering the fourth level of Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao, you have the foundation of all methods. You can start to practice other magical arts and practice your own magic weapons at the same time, such as controlling objects and flying. Only then can you officially enter the world of practice."
Zhang Xiaofan's eyes lit up and he asked: "Senior Sister, standing on the red cloth today, floating in the air, is this a flying thing?"
Song Xing smiled: "That's right. The amber scarlet silk is the magic weapon that Master Niang practiced when she was young. Although Junior Sister is young, her talent is extraordinary. At such a young age, she has already entered the fourth level of Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao, which is her first glimpse of the path."
Tian Ling'er is extremely intelligent and has been taught carefully by her parents since she was a child. Although she only started chopping bamboo when she was ten years old, she has been practicing Tai Chi Xuan Qing Tao for many years. At such a young age, she actually did it when she was thirteen years old. After practicing to the fourth level of Yuqing Realm, you can use magic weapons.
Among Tian Buyi's seven disciples, apart from Song Xing, only the fourth, He Dazhi and Tian Ling'er, have reached the fourth level.
Zhang Xiaofan didn't expect that Tian Linger had already reached the fourth level of cultivation at such a young age, and he was immediately envious.
I also remembered that in the Shoujing Hall yesterday, the master and the wife said that the elder brother's cultivation had reached the seventh level, and he was shocked for a moment.
You can control objects and fly on the fourth level, how powerful will it be on the seventh level?
"Elder brother, I saw an immortal flying by at the foot of the mountain, and what he stepped on seemed to be a sword."
Song Xing touched Zhang Xiaofan's head and said: "Under the Qingyun sect, because Patriarch Qingye obtained the ancient sword "Zhu Xian" in the "Huan Yue Cave", he fought with it across the world and was almost invincible. Most of the descendants admired him. They are all practicing fairy swords."
"Even Master, his protective weapon "Red Spirit" is one of the famous swords in Qingyun Sect."
However, for his disciples, Tian Buyi had no intention of encouraging them to practice fairy swords. Not only that, he often "encouraged" everyone to practice some alternative magic weapons, which was quite criticized among the Qingyun Sect.
After teaching the first three levels of Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao to Zhang Xiaofan and telling him that practice should be gradual and down-to-earth, Song Xing ended today's teaching.
For the next three months, Zhang Xiaofan practiced by himself. Occasionally, when he encountered something he didn't understand, he would ask Song Xing for help, and Song Xing would patiently answer his questions one by one.
After three months of this, Tian Buyi suddenly became interested after lunch one day and came to inspect Zhang Xiaofan's practice. Unexpectedly, he was almost angry to death after asking and testing Zhang Xiaofan.
According to common sense, ordinary people who practice Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao should have achieved a small level of success after three months at the first level. They can initially attract the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the body and circulate it for three to five days.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaofan's poor qualifications are really rare.
After practicing for a full three months, I can't even control the orifices of my body freely. I can barely bring spiritual energy into my body, let alone how to circulate it for several days.
None of the disciples at Dazhu Peak have extraordinary talents, but those with low qualifications like Zhang Xiaofan are really rotten wood that cannot be carved.
When the disciples saw Tian Buyi's face turned extremely ugly, they were so frightened that they did not dare to speak out.
Suru opened her mouth, as if she was ready to comfort Tian Buyi, but looking at Zhang Xiaofan who lowered his head and said nothing, she remembered something and sighed without saying anything.
Tian Linger sat beside him with a smile, watching Zhang Xiaofan's joke.
In the past few days, Tian Linger suddenly had a playmate who was similar to her own age. Even though she often scolded him on the surface, she was a little happy in her heart.
In her mind, it didn't matter whether her junior brother was strong or not, what was important was that she was no longer the youngest at Dazhu Peak.
Tian Buyi stared at Zhang Xiaofan with wide eyes and an angry look on his face. All the disciples beside him had sympathetic expressions but did not dare to speak out.
Only Song Xing stepped forward and said: "Master, my junior brother is still young. Perhaps his mind is undecided, so his cultivation speed is a little slow."
Among the people present, perhaps he was the only one who knew why Zhang Xiaofan practiced so slowly.
It’s just because Zhang Xiaofan, in addition to practicing Qingyun Sect’s Tai Chi and Xuan Qing Dao, also possesses Tianyin Temple’s Temple-Suppressing Kung Fu, and the highest Buddhist Dharma—Great Brahma Prajna.
Buddhism and Taoism have a long history, and the techniques of self-cultivation originated from their own schools of thought.
Take Taoism as an example. Its main purpose is the word "Tao". It is said that Tao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things. All things bear yin and embrace yang, and the qi in the middle is thought to be in harmony.
Taoism originated from Taoist thought. Even the three realms of Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao are based on the Yuqing, Shangqing and Taiqing of Yuanshi Tianzun, Lingbao Tianzun and Daode Tianzun in Taoist mythology, which are commonly known as the "Three Pure Ones". name.
Taoist cultivation emphasizes sharing the same breath with heaven and earth, being one with nature, and using the body to control nature and create great power.
On the other hand, in Buddhism, the main purpose is that "things should have no place to live but arise in their hearts, and all dharmas are inseparable from their own nature."
It goes on to say: When is the self-nature, it is inherently pure; When is the self-nature, there is no birth and death; When is the self-nature, is it self-sufficient; When is the self-nature, is it inherently unshakable; When is the self-nature, is it capable of giving birth to all things!
Buddhist cultivation focuses on understanding oneself and seeing the five aggregates. This is the principle that "84,000 wisdoms can be born from ordinary things."
The thoughts of Buddhism and Taoism are completely different, and the practices of Buddhism and Taoism are naturally in the opposite direction, but they have been kept secret for thousands of years and unknown to others.
Qingyun Sect's Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao Qi refining requires opening the pores of the seven orifices of the body and drawing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the body to run along the meridians, thereby exercising and stabilizing the body's vitality and internal meridians.
However, the Buddhist mind method requires entering into the realm of tranquility, shutting down the thoughts and actions of the whole body, treating oneself as a world, seeing one's own nature alone, and consolidating one's essence with the deep essence of the heart.
Therefore, Song Xing guessed that Zhang Xiaofan's cultivation has not improved so far because the two schools of cultivation go in opposite directions.
Tian Buyi was even more angry when he heard that Song Xingxing was pleading with Zhang Xiaofan. He could no longer hide the anger in his heart and shouted angrily: "You have the nerve to say that, as senior brother, I asked you to be responsible for teaching Lao Qi for three months." You just taught me this result?"
When the disciples saw Song Xing being disciplined, they became even more trembling with fear. They wanted to hide under the table, fearing that Tian Buyi's anger would burn on them.
Seeing Tian Buyi reprimanding Song Xing, Suru said angrily: "Okay, I know you are unhappy, but what does this have to do with Daren. Lao Qi is a little slow in practice, so he can teach him well in the future."
Seeing Suru speak, Tian Buyi snorted and said nothing.
Song Xing spoke again: "Master, Master, my junior brother's practice has been slow these days, and I am partly responsible for it. Recently, my disciple has been listening to his breathing, concentrating on the Tao, and concentrating his spiritual Qi. He feels that he needs to make a breakthrough, so he has neglected to teach him. Junior brother."
When Tian Buyi and Suru heard this, their expressions changed at the same time: "What, have you broken through the eighth level of Yuqing?"
