Sword knocks the door of heaven

Chapter 15

In Zishi, on the back mountain of Baiyun Temple, under the dazzling starlight in the sky, the big locust tree exudes a crimson halo, and its long branches and leaves are swaying, stretching all the way to the window of the cabin, which looks very much like a crimson streak. The river of light is slowly flowing into the window.

At this time, Li Yunsheng was sitting motionless on the head of the bed, his whole body was surrounded by a burst of purple aura, and the cyclone kept converging towards the top of his head.

After this process lasted for half an hour, Li Yunsheng, who had been exhaling in a special rhythm, suddenly stopped breathing when he was at the peak of his energy. The branches of the trees, the chirping of insects and even the sound of the wind also stopped, and everything in the world seemed to be quiet.

But this kind of stillness didn't last long, just a few breaths, and this strange quietness ended.

"Is this the state of 'Entry into Silence' mentioned in the Daozang General Chapter?" Li Yunsheng picked up the towel next to him and wiped his face, then he thought with some puzzled head, "But why is it so difficult to say? Yu Xuzi's " "Shuo Xuan Wei Miao Jing" clearly explained the essentials of entering the state of trance, and now it seems that in the books on the first floor, Senior Yu Xuzi's words are more serious."

He stretched himself and continued talking to himself:
"The speed of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is indeed much faster after I enter the state of silence, but I still can't fill my dantian. It seems that I really have to wait until I enter the state of silence and enter the second silence, and then find a second-grade Qi refining method and try again. .”

In the past few days, he has tried many times, no matter how much spiritual energy he has absorbed into his body, even if he enters the state of tranquility, he still can't store a trace of vitality in his dantian, let alone build a dantu to reach the stage of rebirth.

He hasn't touched that small bottle of white brewing, it is his last resort, he wants to do the best he can first, and then break through the embryonic period in one fell swoop, otherwise, this small bottle of white brewing will be wasted again.

"Yu Xuzi's "Shuo Xuan Wei Miao Jing" said that the most perfect state of a monk in the Qi training period is that one is to obtain an above-average Qi training method, and the other is to be able to enter the second state of tranquility when exhaling."

There are first silence, second silence, third silence, and fourth silence. The first silence and second silence are distinguished by time. The duration of entering silence is one hour, which can be called second silence. The distinction between three silences and four silences has been seen by Li Yunsheng so far. There is no specific statement in the book, but it is only superficially said: "Those who enter the three solitudes can hear the sounds of all things, and those who enter the four solitudes can discern the laws of heaven and earth."

So Li Yunsheng wanted to wait until he was able to enter the state of tranquility, and then go to the Yellow Crane Tower to ask for a mid-level Qi training method and try again.

The middle-grade Qi training method is on the second floor of the Yellow Crane Tower.

The collection of books on the second floor of the Yellow Crane Tower no longer has so many idle books. It is filled with the "Three Caves and Four Auxiliaries" of the "Three Caves and Four Supplements" that have been collected for thousands of years.Among them, there are 130 Zhongpin Xinfa, 360 five mantras, 47 Dan Jue, [-] four medicines, and [-] Fulu.

These are what Li Yunsheng saw in the catalog of the Yellow Crane Tower Dao Collection. Compared with the complicated books on the first floor, the categories of books on the second floor are particularly clear. You can even see the names of the editors of each collection and the time when the books were compiled from the catalog of Dao Zang.

Li Yunsheng actually has a plan in mind about which Qi training method to choose. From the first floor to the fourth floor where you can see the catalog, one of the editors of the mental method category has always been named—yes, it is The real Yuxu who Li Yunsheng admired very much.

On the second floor, there happened to be a Qi Refining Technique called "Drawing Dragon Jue" compiled by him. What surprised people was this "Drawing Dragon Jue
"The first and second chapters were actually collected on the second and third floors of the Yellow Crane Tower respectively, that is to say, the first chapter is a middle-grade Qi training art, while the second chapter is actually a top-grade Qi training art.

It can be said that Li Yunsheng has been "itching" for "Drawing Dragon Jue" for a long time, especially after reading the "Shuo Xuan Wei Miao Jing" on the first floor. Simply wanting to see what Daoist Yuxu said in "Painting the Dragon", this is an indescribable thirst for knowledge and curiosity, just like Li Yunsheng's desire for this world of self-cultivation, he wants to clear up doubts before seeking the Tao.

Here comes the problem

Li Yunsheng is still a little sure about entering the Two Quiet Realm. This is at most a matter of time for him, and he has plenty of time in Baiyun Guan.

But Zhongpin’s Qi training method is a headache, because it costs [-] merit coins to go upstairs on the second floor of the Yellow Crane Tower, and what is even more annoying is that all the books on the second floor are counted according to the number of times—— "One View Two Hundred", that is, two hundred merit coins for one viewing!That is, you go upstairs to read the catalog and choose the book you want to read, and then ask the steward on the second floor to take the book, and you can read it for two hundred merit coins.

At first, Li Yunsheng didn't understand what was called "one view", because reading a word, a page, or a book counts as one view.

After asking Li Lan, he found out that the books on the second floor are not books at all, but pieces of jade slips!And those formulas and pills are sealed inside with ancient secret methods. After you go upstairs and pay the money, the steward will give you a jade wrench finger. You tap the jade wrench three times on the jade slip, and the books in the jade slip will be released. It will enter your mind like a nightmare, and after a quarter of an hour, the mana that pulls your fingers will fail, and those spells in your mind will disappear.

"It can't be expressed in words." It is said that this is the secret method that casts the mantra on the jade slips.

It is also because of this that, except for some aristocratic families and great sects, Taoist exercises above the middle grade are rarely leaked out. Even if they are spread out, they are in the form of jade slips. I have never seen a middle-grade exercise in the form of a book.

So this made Li Yunsheng a headache. The only way for the disciples of Baiyun Temple to get the merit card is the monthly two catties of eight taels of immortal food.

That is to say, the celestial food that Li Yunsheng was lucky enough to save for the next month is only enough to go upstairs for a "one view". The complexity of middle-grade exercises is incomparable to low-grade exercises. That is, the amount of words in the books on the first floor. Li Yunsheng is very confident in his memory, but he really has no confidence in the face of such a huge amount of words in a quarter of an hour.

"I can only try it."

He calculated the merit cards on his body. If all the merit cards issued a few days ago were exchanged for merit cards, plus the remaining 180 yuan from last month, the total would be 380 yuan. If he was fully loaded, he would be able to go to the "Second View" on the second floor.

But soon the frost will fall, and the three acres of fairy land under his own mountain will be sown, and he will at least keep a catty of fairy grain in exchange for seeds.

"It seems... Poorer than when I was at home."

Li Yunsheng sighed, but when he thought of the crops in his fairyland, he could keep [-]% of the crops and looked forward to it. He thought that maybe this time next year he would not have to be so tight.
