My Journey to the West on the Heavenly Road

Chapter 37 Precious Light Art

What do you want in practice, what do you want?
It is immortality!
Heaven, Earth, God, Man, Ghost and other five celestial beings, in other words, are the levels of longevity.

For example, ghosts and immortals have a lifespan of [-] years, and they will not enter reincarnation at the end of their lifespan, and they will go to reincarnation and change to practice;
Immortals have a lifespan of [-] years and do not enter the five elements; gods have a lifespan of [-] years and their bodies are clear;
Earth Immortal Shou Yizang, 400 years, beyond the Three Realms;

The celestial beings live the same life as the sky, gathering and dispersing to form.

Then again, if your cultivation is high, does it mean that you are powerful?
Not so.

In the process of practice, mana is accompanied by it, but it is not equal to the strength of the ability.

The Five Immortal Fruit Status gives the level of longevity and mana cultivation, but if you don't practice magic and supernatural powers, even if you have the Immortal Fruit Status, you can't use your cultivation base.

For a monk's fighting skills, mana cultivation is only the foundation, mainly lies in spells (including supernatural powers), martial arts, and magic weapons (including weapons and equipment).

Take a simple example.

A person is very healthy, with a life expectancy of one hundred years and great strength.

And the other person is not so healthy, can only live to 70 years old, and the strength is average.

If these two fight with bare hands, the former is naturally stronger.

But if the latter has learned high-strength martial arts, he will hit people's weak points, be able to defeat the enemy with one move, and even have magical weapons in hand.

The former cannot defeat the latter.

The life span, health level, strength and other physical strength are equivalent to the immortal fruit position.

High-strength martial arts are spells and martial arts, and magical weapons are magic weapons.

As the saying goes, cultivation base seeks the fruit of the Tao, while spells and magic weapons are the means to protect the Tao.

As for martial arts, it depends on the preference of the practitioner. Most of them are pure immortals and have little interest in honing martial arts.

Therefore, the three treasures of practitioners usually refer to cultivation, spells, and magic weapons.

Today I only talk about magic.

As the saying goes, "Heaven and earth have their own laws, and the avenue has its own roots."

It is also said that "the sky and the earth are infinite, and the universe borrows the law."

In short, spells do not come out of thin air, and cannot be fabricated at will. All spells have their own legal roots in the world.

To study the Fa is to realize the dharma nature of the heaven and the earth, and practice the Dharma in the heart.

To cast a spell is to link up with the corresponding dharma and borrow the dharma from heaven and earth.

Spells are composed of Dharma, Mantra, and Jue.

The "law" in it is the legal nature of heaven and earth.

"Curse" and "jue" are the mantras that are recited and the seals pinched when borrowing the law from heaven and earth.

Therefore, in order to master a spell, one should first refine the corresponding dharma of heaven and earth with the corresponding exercises, and then when on the scene, connect the dharma with mantras and formulas to cast the corresponding spell.

The above is the relevant common sense mentioned by the rat demon when explaining the precious light technique to Jiang Yuan.

Of course, if the yellow-haired mouse had to know so much, it wouldn't be able to overwhelm the practice of the precious light technique. It only started, and the main thing was the old monkey's narration.

The old monkey didn't explicitly say that he took the rat demon as his apprentice, but he acquiesced.

Solving Jiang Yuan's doubts this time is also teaching the rat demon.

At the end, it also pointed out the reason why the yellow-haired mouse failed in practicing Baoguang technique.

That is, the understanding of dharmata is not in place.

The golden beans discharged after swallowing gold are proof.

Because it stands to reason that for a complete practice, the gold swallowed should be perfectly digested.

The fact that the rat demon rowed golden beans meant that its cultivation was very rough.

After hearing this, the yellow-haired rat thumped its chest and screamed in remorse.

If its cultivation is okay, counting the gold it swallowed, even if the Precious Light Technique is not great, it will not be as useless as it is now.

But after Jiang Yuan heard it, he said with emotion: No wonder he seeks the teacher first in order to seek the Tao. He really passed on a word, but he passed on thousands of volumes of books.

After sighing, Jiang Yuan also recognized the old monkey more.

No matter what the old monkey is thinking, his advice to Jiang Yuan is real, and there is also the method of taking Xiaolonghu Dan, "Xuanyin Cave Micro-Jing".

To a certain extent, the old monkey is not only the teacher of the rat demon, but also has the grace of preaching to Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan silently kept this kindness in his heart.

Then he cleared up his mood and began to practice the precious light technique.

Sunlight penetrates into the cabin and shines on the gold-filled wooden box, and the reflected golden light dazzles people's eyes.

Jiang Yuan sat cross-legged on the futon, first silently recited the mantra of meditation to eliminate distracting thoughts, and then picked up a piece of gold from the golden light.

Accompanied by the nonsensical thought of "don't be poisoned by heavy metals", he opened his mouth and swallowed it.

With the gold in his stomach, Jiang Yuan closed his eyes slightly, his hands naturally formed the seal of precious light, he calmed down, and silently recited the formula:

"Taishang Xuanshen, make me natural, Yuan Shifu fate, transform my body shape, Lingbao Danyuan, make me pass through the true precious light, and prove my supernatural powers"

There was no movement at first, the feeling of the hard object in the abdomen was very uncomfortable, Jiang Yuan even felt abdominal cramping, dizziness and nausea.

Until the weak zhenqi in the body moves accordingly, slowly gathering towards the gold in the belly.

"Taishang Xuanshen. Yuanshi Talisman, Lingbao Pill, Yuanbao's light is reflected, proving my supernatural powers."

Gradually, it wasn't Jiang Yuan who was reciting the Baoguang Jue, but it was like a divine scripture, glowing with golden light, floating and echoing in his sea of ​​consciousness.

boom!
It was as if the primordial mists opened up, and the sea of ​​consciousness burst open.

A vast and mysterious aura surged along the crack, converging on the golden precepts of the heavenly scriptures.

Jiang Yuan's consciousness also melted into the golden book in an instant, rippling in the vast and mysterious atmosphere.

When the aura gradually faded and the book became dark, Jiang Yuan opened his mouth and inhaled violently like sleepwalking in the outside world, the gold in the box trembled for a moment, then flew up lightly and fell into Jiang Yuan's mouth.

Gulu, Jiang Yuan "sleepwalked" and swallowed the gold, and the vast mysterious atmosphere in the sea of ​​consciousness, as well as the golden light of the heavenly book, immediately recovered.

Thus, a cycle is formed.

After swallowing the large box of gold given by Sima Yan, the old monkey ordered the rat demon to wake up Jiang Yuan.

"Wake up."

After calling several times, Jiang Yuan didn't respond, and the rat demon just jumped up and slammed his head into Jiang Yuan's forehead.

Bang!
Jiang Yuan, who was sitting upright cross-legged, suddenly leaned back and fell backwards.

The vast and mysterious aura of the golden book in the sea of ​​consciousness dissipated immediately, and Jiang Yuan opened his eyes in a great sense of loss.

Immediately, two golden lights burst out from the pupils.

It wasn't until the golden light in his pupils dissipated that Jiang Yuan regained his composure, as if waking up from a dream:

"How did I fall?"

The mouse demon jumped over and squeaked at Jiang Yuan: "Look at your face!"

"my face?"

Jiang Yuan froze for a moment, reached out to touch his face.

Well-defined, smooth skin, except for a little coldness, there is nothing wrong with it.

"Go look in the mirror."

There is no mirror here.

But seeing the yellow-haired rat's expression changed, Jiang Yuan had no choice but to get up and walk to the washing basin.

Take a photo with the clear water in the basin.

Jiang Yuan was shocked immediately.

I saw the reflection in the water, it was a golden face!
"what happened?"

Jiang Yuan hurriedly slapped his face hard.

Soon, I found that the skin on my face was extremely cold, without any temperature, and no matter how much I kneaded it, I couldn't feel it at all.

"How is this going?"

Jiang Yuan looked at the mouse demon in panic, but saw the yellow-haired mouse flashing away, showing a gloating expression:
"Haha, you are crazy, just wait, after the face is finished, there is the body, limbs, and soon, you will become a golden sculpture."

"roll!"

Jiang Yuan yelled and cursed, and hurried to the basket, urgently calling for help:

"Old monkey, am I really crazy?"

The old monkey was silent.

Jiang Yuan's heart sank, and he panicked.

At this moment, the old monkey said:
"You are practicing for the first time, uh, you should be more steady."

Jiang Yuan looked at the small box of gold left, and sighed: "It's really necessary to be more stable——"

No, Jiang Yuan suddenly came back to his senses, there seemed to be a smile in the old monkey's voice.
