"Middle stage of Qi training."
Spiritual energy surrounded his whole body, and Gu Dan's eyes were like lightning.
Today's monks divide Qi training into nine levels, and three levels are considered a small realm.
The middle stage of Qi training, that is, reaching the fourth level of Qi training, is already considered a small watershed in the realm of Qi training.
Before the fourth level, the total amount of spiritual energy mastered by the monks is not enough, and it is almost impossible to fight for a long time. The monks at this period are the weakest, and some expensive magic techniques will exhaust their own spiritual energy in just a few times.
By the middle stage of Qi training, this situation will change.
Similar to the Grandmaster, the Qi-training monks at this stage have been able to display their spiritual power, which can be regarded as a true benchmark for the Grandmaster's outward release of Qi. They can protect their bodies by themselves even without the help of magic, and finally have some monk-like demeanor.
It is said that there is a small barrier between the early stage of Qi training and the middle stage of Qi training, and those with ordinary talent may even need to spend years and months polishing it.
But Gu Dan didn't feel anything at all, and he naturally showed his spiritual power, which also meant that his strength in the immortal path had reached the middle stage of Qi training.
"In the middle stage of Qi training, are you targeting warriors who have just reached the master level?"
Playing with the aura in his hand, Gu Dan was thoughtful.
The sign of truly becoming a master is the release of true energy.
The sign of the middle stage of Qi training is the appearance of spiritual power.
In the later stage of Qi training, it is a process of gradually accumulating oneself. It is very similar to the master's true Qi, which continuously polishes the whole body. Even the way of expressing oneself is the same.
How could it be so similar?
"No, that's not right."
It is not an exaggeration to say that Gu Dan's knowledge of martial arts is the best in the world. Now that he has started to practice immortality, it does not mean that his insights in martial arts will disappear. It has always been part of his strength, and even the foundation for his life. Book.
The road traveled and the blood and sweat shed will turn into experiences and be imprinted in the mind.
"If we follow Qing Pingzi's statement, martial arts is actually inherited from witchcraft, witchcraft - martial arts."
There seemed to be thunder in Gu Dan's mind. Just after the breakthrough, his aura was stronger than ever, and his thoughts were extremely clear, "Martial arts is just a poor imitation of witchcraft!
In the beginning, those legendary guys who were able to pick up the sun and moon with their hands and smash mountains and rivers with their feet showed power that could not be demonstrated by today's martial arts.
But - in this case, Qi training is not a poor imitation of Qi practitioners? Even the name has not been changed, but the strength is no longer the same.
According to legend, the Qi Refiner pursues the innate Qi, which can swallow the sky, eat the earth, drink the morning glow, and eat the white dew. The world's first imagination of immortals began with Qi Refiners. "
Gu Dan seems to have grasped a certain context. On two different but extremely similar roads, he measured them with himself.
"It's just that the beginning of the legend is as sudden as the end. Whether it is a witch or a Qi practitioner, their legends all end abruptly. After that, the realms of foundation building, golden elixir, etc. are not even visible in the legend, and they directly came to the prosperous age of immortal cultivation. It seems that all these realms are taken for granted and should be this way.
Martial arts was born out of witchcraft, and Qi training was born out of Qi practitioners, but who did the realms of Jindan and Yuanying come from? That is something hidden in history, but even if you only compare martial arts and Qi training realms, you can notice the similarities! "
Gu Dan's eyes were gleaming, his mind was clear and his mind was full of energy. Hundreds of years of practice came together in his mind at this moment.
As long as it exists, there are traces.
It is true that he, a young immortal, cannot travel through time to get a glimpse of the prosperous world of the past, but a rising star can also get a glimpse of the ancient scenery from the colorful details.
Martial arts, witchcraft; practicing qi, refining qi.
They are even born out of different systems, but they are so similar!
"Babies will subconsciously imitate the actions and sounds of their elders"
Gu Dan pondered.
After the Witch, it is the era of Qi Refiners.
But the road of Qi Refiner was not accessible to anyone in the beginning.
Latecomers will of course draw on the experience of their predecessors to cross the river by feeling the stones. Only after reaching a certain level will they start to walk their own path.
There is no doubt that some of those Qi refiners succeeded in the end.
But in this initial realm, future generations can still get a glimpse of it through endless time.
"A Qi Refiner must be an imitator at the beginning. This is the fastest and most convenient way to take root!"
Gu Dan seemed to have grasped something and did not dare to relax for a moment. He realized clearly, "The master is practicing qi, and practicing qi is the master. They take different paths, but the expressions are exactly the same, there is no difference!"
At least, in the initial realm, there will be no mistakes if you use the master to practice Qi! "
Grandmaster is a realm in martial arts, so why not practice qi?
Just like a grand master cannot show the magic of a witch at all, Qi training cannot represent the glory of a Qi practitioner at all.
But a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
It is precisely because of climbing step by step that there will be subsequent achievements.
You can see the leopard in the tube!
"In other words, as long as you find the records about the path of the Qi Refiner, you can get a glimpse of how to reach the so-called innate realm after finding the great master without any need for advanced records!"
Gu Dan stood up suddenly, extremely excited.
comprehend by analogy!
The mysterious and mysterious innate realm has blocked him for more than seventy years.
In the past ten years, martial arts has not improved at all, but he still has not felt any signs of "breaking through" to the next level.
It seems that this road is really cut off.
The experience that Mr. Ji left for him, as well as the misfortunes that befell the masters Xue Wenjian, Xin, and Tan during the Xia Dynasty, all showed that rash attempts were tantamount to courting death.
From their experience, Gu Dan could only confirm that the road existed and was extremely dangerous, but how to get there was still a mystery.
Anyone who dared to attack the innate realm in front of him died.
Each one died more miserably than the last.
He couldn't find any exploration of this road in the classics. It would be no different to say that it was completely blocked.
But today, Gu Dan finally found hope again.
Found the "master".
Qi refiner, Qi refiner!
The founders of the next era of witchcraft must have the deepest understanding of the former.
Only those who come late can give real evaluations.
Use the skeletons piled up by predecessors to see the scenery from higher places!
It didn't matter that he couldn't find any records about witches. It was too long ago, and he was out of tune with the overall immortality and was excluded.
But Qi training is a real part of the Immortal Way, and the Immortal Way must also preserve the records of Qi Refiners!
As long as he knows how a Qi practitioner continues to move forward in the realm of "Qi training" equivalent to that of a master, it is equivalent to getting a glimpse of the next step in martial arts!
Latecomers learn from their predecessors, and why can’t they be latecomers?
After hundreds of years of practice, one day of enlightenment comes.
The thick fog that shrouded Gu Dan's head dissipated for the most part, leaving Gu Dan feeling refreshed.
"Martial arts is about cultivating one's body from the inside out. Although immortality is also about cultivating one's body, it is from the outside in! Even if the path is the same and the expression is similar, it will not be completely the same.
The wizard has finished his journey of discovering himself, and the remaining newcomers can only find ways to prove themselves through external objects. After all, there is only one way for oneself, but there are endless external things!
Another advantage of foreign objects is that they can move forward extremely fast! "
Gu Dan's thoughts were clear and his feelings were profound.
If you want to become a master, it will take thirty or forty years of hard work, or even longer.
But it only took him three years to break through to the middle stage of Qi training, which is the fourth level of Qi training.
Although part of the credit belongs to Aokiye, is there such a genius in martial arts?
Even Gu Dan, who was able to compete to be the fastest Grandmaster in the world, was only promoted to Grandmaster at the age of thirty-one. He only relied on the 'Good Fortune Oven Pill' to skip the training of the Qi and blood barriers to reach such a rapid pace!
Qingmuye is not complete now. If we follow the spiritual root analogy, the cultivation speed is probably slightly faster than the Tianlinggen.
It is equivalent to four times the speed of the lowest-qualified low-grade spiritual root practitioner.
Year-on-year conversion, without taking into account barriers, after twelve years of continuous practice, even the lowest-qualified low-grade spiritual root can reach the middle stage of Qi training!
Of course, this does not take into account realistic factors.
If we look at the internal situation in Ningfang, Gu Dan is well-established, has obtained a special license from the Huang Dynasty, and has "low strength". He is obviously the weakest person in the law enforcement hall, so he can practice consistently for three years. Unshakable, undisturbed by external objects.
There is no need to worry about the contract signed with Ningfang. The salary issued by the Law Enforcement Hall is enough to repay and even make a lot of money. It can be said that he has devoted himself to practice.
According to the treatment of ordinary low-level spiritual root monks, who have to take care of the spiritual field every day and consume spiritual energy to work for Ningfang to pay off debts, how much time will be left for their own practice?
The consumption required would probably be more than doubled!
And this was even when Gu Dan had not purchased any cultivation techniques or various magical arts. It was impossible for ordinary monks to be so content and just practice.
Facts have proved that practice depends not only on your own efforts, but also on the environment.
If you can get rid of trivial matters and focus on cultivation, you are already far ahead of others!
People cannot be generalized.
Don't just look at the bad side of everything.
Although Gu Dan's conditions are already very good, they are still far behind those of Master Ren.
If we don’t talk about anything else but the concentration of spiritual energy, yellow-level areas will also have to be hoisted and beaten by prefecture-level areas.
That is to say, Immortal Dao has been around for less than a hundred years, and various miraculous medicines have not been developed yet.
Otherwise, with the help of the spiritual elixir, the blessing of the formation, and the sufficient spiritual energy tube, the speed of practicing in the realm of Qi training will definitely be very fast!
"According to the records in the classics, among those immortal sects, Qi practitioners are just registered disciples. Only foundation-building monks can truly be regarded as members of the immortal sect.
Judging from the current point of view, the conditions of those immortal sects are too harsh. But if you think about it from another angle, isn't it that there is a bottleneck in the development of the 'immortal path' today? "
Gu Dan deeply understands the impact of the times on people.
When an individual is in an era, he is a part of the era.
Different eras and different conditions cannot be directly compared and need to be carefully considered.
In the truly prosperous world of immortality, Qi-training monks are at the bottom, and those who build foundations can barely be considered a part of the immortal path and can truly embark on the path of cultivation.
Now, it can only be said that there is a long way to go.
“The impact of the times on individuals is indeed extremely profound.
But, I am an exception. "
Although he was aware of this, Gu Dan was not worried.
This is the confidence that longevity has brought me!
Ordinary people have only one lifetime, so they have to try their best to grasp the torrent of the times in the limited time of their lives, otherwise they will be submerged by the times.
And although he is also based in the times, he is destined not to stay where he is.
He does not need to seek for a moment, but only for the foundation of eternity.
Seeing the flowers blooming and falling in front of the court, and the clouds rolling and relaxing, I feel immortal and free!
The idea that had been stuck for a hundred years had a new idea, and his strength, which had been dormant for a long time, had improved to a higher level. Gu Dan was in a good mood.
"Since it's a happy event, it's time to celebrate and go out to drink!"
Gu Dan flashed the token in his hand, and the door of the cave opened slowly.
But he saw a man standing in front of the door, his face full of depression.
"Friend Lu Dao?"
Gu Dan was startled, then said: "You came just in time, come on, come on, I was about to pour some spiritual wine, let's have a drink today!"
In the past three years, Gu Dan has not done anything at all.
He also went out to drink spiritual wine several times!
"You kid, are you born in the year of turtle, right?"
Lu Yu stared at Gu Dan up and down.
Three years, three whole years!
If it hadn't been for the recent shortage of staff in the Law Enforcement Hall, we would have completely forgotten about this person!
How dare you join the Law Enforcement Hall and earn free wages? Is this what a person can do?
"Why did Fellow Daoist Lu say this?"
Gu Dan's face was filled with confusion.
"Don't let me pretend to be confused. You haven't done any inspections in the past three years. If the boss hadn't checked everything in the shop recently, you would have been forgotten."
Lu Yu said with a dark face.
"I haven't forgotten, I can get my salary every month."
Gu Dan said sincerely.
"."
Lu Yu's face turned darker.
"No more joking, does Fellow Daoist Lu have anything to tell you?"
Gu Dan laughed, it was a rare joke.
"It's been tight in Xianfang recently, and the Law Enforcement Hall needs to operate at full capacity, so your boy's good days are over."
Lu Yu snorted, obviously quite ashamed of Gu Dan's 'immortal worm' behavior.
I thought you were an unparalleled master, burning flesh and blood and dared to take on a foundation-building monk. But I never thought you would be corrupted just after you joined the establishment. The speed of your corruption is jaw-dropping!
You were the laziest person in the law enforcement hall before. When I heard about your deeds, I said you were incomparable.
Others are being squeezed by Xianfang, but this guy is better off. Is it okay to just take advantage of him and oppress Xianfang?
How can such evil trends be tolerated!
"Oh? What happened?"
Gu Dan finally became serious.
The law enforcement hall is used to maintain order.
A fairy house that does not require a law enforcement hall is a good fairy house.
So it’s a good thing to have free money!
But once the Law Enforcement Hall needs to operate at full capacity, it can only mean that there is a problem in the situation, a big problem.
"Want to know now? Why did you go so early!"
Lu Yu glanced at Gu Dan fiercely, "Follow me, there is an internal meeting of the Law Enforcement Hall. If you come out later, I will tear down your cave!"
Following Lu Yu's footsteps, Gu Dan said nothing more honestly.
When he finally arrived at the door of the Law Enforcement Hall and stepped inside, Gu Dan glanced around and saw a real old acquaintance inside.
Zhuang Sheng!
