Add some practice: start with a lucid dream

Chapter 166 What is fine

The content on the document is mainly some explanatory notes.

Yudong Double Blow: When the breath comes back.

Bathing in Maoyou: when the spirit resides in Jiaji (acupoint) is Maoshi, and when the spirit resides in Huangting (the center of the chest) is Youshi.

The position of the Niwan is three inches inward from the center of the eyebrows, which is where the gods are refined.

Tanzhong is located in the center of the two breasts, and it is the place where Qi is refined. It is also called Jianggong and Zhongdantian.

Shangque Bridge: Yintang Tongnai has two orifices, one virtual and one real, so it is called.

While watching Liu Chang still helping to explain, he took himself as an example to point out the specific locations of various acupoints.

After flipping through the entire document, Chen Ze gradually gained some confidence, and immediately turned around to return to the small circle.

At this time, the small circle no longer exists, and everyone is sitting casually, chatting endlessly.

Looks like free chat time.

Seeing that Liang Yi was talking to another bald middle-aged man, Chen Ze simply squeezed past him.

The same is true for Liu Chang.

"How is it? Is there anything you don't understand?" Seeing Chen Ze approaching, Liang Yi asked proactively.

"There are really many." Chen Ze asked bluntly,
"Why do we have to do volunteer work before we can get down to business? What's the point?"

"Good question." Liang Yi replied as if he had expected it.

"This is to exercise the mind, and it can be regarded as a kind of sexual exercise."

"Since ancient times, the cultivation of virtue has been emphasized on the path of cultivation."

"Then what does this have to do with my cultivation as a god?" Chen Ze asked very straightforwardly.

"Of course it has something to do with it." Liang Yi was not stage frightened, "Sexual cultivation is an invisible thing, whether it is essence, energy, or spirit, you need to rely on your thoughts to guide it."

"And to develop good moral character, not to be arrogant or impetuous when things happen, not to fight or fight with others, you will naturally have a firm mind, and only in this way can you practice good sexuality."

"Whether it is for long-term adherence to inner alchemy practice, or for specific meditation, xinxing is very important."

"You're talking about concentration and perseverance, right?" Chen Ze summed it up, "But in fact, seeking the truth with one heart doesn't necessarily lead to being a good person."

"I'm a big devil and I can seek the truth with all my heart."

"You're right." Liang Yi affirmed his words, "But if you become a big devil, you will be caught and put in jail."

"Now is the modern society. If you go to extremes and act unscrupulously if you have some skills, you will definitely have trouble sooner or later."

Chen Ze: "."

"So this is a way of refining our minds to prevent us from going to extremes?"

"It can be understood in this way." Liang Yi nodded, "Except for those hermits who hide in deep mountains and old forests."

"If you want to practice cultivation in modern society, then you must abide by certain rules."

"Sigh." Chen Ze sighed, "After all, I'm still not capable enough."

"You should just tell me how to fix it."

Before Liang Yi could speak, the bald man next to him added,
"Actually, doing more good deeds may really be beneficial to cultivation."

"Oh?" Chen Ze looked at the bald uncle.

He remembered that the name of this extremely smart uncle was Huang Bowen.

Huang Bowen went on to explain: "I have participated in an experimental project before."

"Divide subjects into two groups, one group doing altruistic things and the other group doing selfish things."

"The results showed that the brain wave detection showed that the group that performed altruistic behaviors was significantly more focused on thinking than the other group."

"Although the results of such an experiment are not enough to prove the long-term effect of altruistic behavior on the brain, I think there should be a reason for such records in the alchemy classics."

Chen Ze nodded half-understood, then asked, "Are you engaged in scientific research?"

"Yes, my research direction is brain science." Huang Bowen lowered his head and adjusted his glasses, his forehead became brighter for a moment.

"You scientists also believe in alchemy?" Chen Ze raised his eyebrows.

"It's not a question of believe it or not." Huang Bowen explained seriously,

"Accept first, question later."

"For things beyond our usual cognition, we must first analyze and study it before we can draw conclusions."

"If you deny something that contradicts common sense, that's not science, it's superstition."

"Science is an orderly knowledge system based on testable explanations and predictions about the form and organization of objective things."

"Science is constantly advancing and developing. If you show your smartphone to the ancients, they must be shocked and can't believe it, but this is the result of science."

"If a real scientist meets a ghost, he will definitely think about how to prove it."

Papapapapapapapapapapapapapa Liu Chang clapped his hands.

"Are you also engaged in scientific research?" Chen Ze asked casually.

"No, I practice sports and I'm still in school." Liu Chang showed his big white teeth when he smiled.

"What about you, I haven't heard you say it yet." Huang Bowen asked back.

"I teach martial arts." Chen Ze replied.

The members of this seminar are really diverse, and there are all kinds of occupations.

But there is only one purpose for everyone to gather together, to cultivate truth.

So Chen Ze stopped talking nonsense and took out his phone to play a video.

The content of the video is exactly Xiao Pozhan's "Men's Immortal Cultivation Technique Collection".

The set of videos that allowed Chen Ze to load the [Cultivation] skill.

Because the [Cultivation] skill bar has not broken through Lv0, Chen Ze has not mastered the cultivation method.

"This one." Liang Yi read it for a few paragraphs and returned it nonchalantly, "He has a source for this."

"It can be regarded as a set of exercises that has been widely circulated. The main reason is that it came out late, and it was only written in the late Qing Dynasty, so there are basically no mistakes."

"A relatively small sect called Qianfeng Sect. The founder is Zhao Bichen, the old man of Qianfeng. It can be regarded as a branch of Quanzhen Longmen Sect."

"Longmen faction." Chen Ze confirmed, "Northern sect alchemy way of life first?"

"Yes, but since the north and south merged in the Yuan Dynasty, the alchemy methods of the southern and northern sects have not changed much."

"But didn't you say that it's hard to find real cultivation techniques now? That's all there is to it."

Since this set of videos allowed Chen Ze to successfully retrieve and load them into the skill, it must be true.

"This set of exercises, although it can be regarded as the real entry formula of cultivation, is actually only limited to entry." Liang Yi began to explain.

"It only has thirteen steps, right?"

"Yes, all sixteen steps are mentioned in the video, and the last three steps are too advanced to be recorded."

"These words are level." Liang Yi shook his head. "The last three steps are actually refining Qi to transform spirit, refining spirit to transform void, and refining void to return nothing or refining void to join the Tao."

It is a controversial statement of various sects whether to refine the emptiness to return to nothing or to refine the emptiness to join the Tao.

"Actually, this whole set of exercises is about refining and transforming qi, and there is still a lot of content missing. There is no way, this is a common problem."

"After all, this set of exercises came from the late Qing Dynasty. At that time, the vitality of heaven and earth had long been exhausted. What kind of advanced realm can we practice?"

"However, precisely because of this, this set of incomplete refining energy is especially suitable for getting started in modern times."

"Oh——" Chen Ze understood that this low-profile entry-level exercise is actually easier to use.

"There is a text version in this exercise group, have you downloaded the compressed package?"

"The folder called Qianfeng faction is there, I should have marked it out."

"Oh." Chen Ze responded and asked, "Then just follow this exercise?"

"Of course not!" Liang Yi suddenly raised his voice,

"Are you sure how to find you at the entrance?"

"Do you know how the heat looks?"

"How do you know when to collect herbs without telling you!"

"Remember!" Liang Yi emphasized, "Don't practice without guidance, or you will make mistakes sooner or later!"

"Where is this video? I will complain about it!"

"Quiet up, Doctor Liang, calm down." Chen Ze said haha,

"It's written for reference only, don't practice without a master."

"That's about the same." Liang Yi nodded.

In fact, even without a master, Chen Ze should be able to practice with the system loading and upgrading.

It's just that [Tongxuan] has not yet reached 200 points, so for the time being, I can only pile up the progress bar little by little by meditating in my dream.

But anyway, I haven't started yet, so it should be enough to ask Liang Yi for advice.

So Chen Ze dispelled his worries and said sincerely to Liang Yi,

"Doctor Liang."

"I want to learn cultivation!"

"Okay!" Liang Yi sat up straight, "You have also watched the video, do you understand the first step of preparation before the introduction of cultivation?"

"I know." Chen Ze replied confidently, "Take care of your body and reach a state of energy and energy."

This is exactly what Chen Ze has been doing in the past.

"That's right." Liang Yi nodded slightly, "Actually, this can be regarded as refining oneself and building a foundation."

"The next step is to refine and transform Qi. What is refined is the essence in the body. This process is also called collecting medicine, and it is usually referred to by small medicine."

"It's the same as boiling medicine. How do you boil it if there is no water and no medicine in the pot?"

"So in the stage of self-refining and foundation building, it is necessary to cultivate enough essence."

"Where does the essence come from? It is born naturally from everyone's body!"

"Doctor Liang, is the so-called "essence" an abstract concept? Isn't there a visible criterion for judging?" Chen Ze asked immediately.

"In a broad sense, it refers to the tangible elements at all levels of human life activities."

"But in a narrow sense, let me tell you, it refers to the reproductive essence!" Liang Yi emphasized emphatically.

At this time, Huang Bowen also added: "Yes, inner alchemy is actually not as mysterious and mysterious as imagined."

"At least in the introductory stage, all cultivation methods are visible and tangible."

"Is it like this?" Chen Ze said frankly without hiding anything.
"But in terms of chemical composition, isn't the main component of that thing just protein and genetic material?"

"It is really difficult to measure scientifically at present. This is a fact." Huang Bowen emphasized the word "currently".

"But as I said, science has its limits."

"The chemical components in organisms and cells can be measured, but no one can create real artificial life."

"Even with test-tube babies and cloning techniques, the initial fertilized eggs and cell materials are naturally produced, but they have been artificially intervened later."

"So the saying that life originates from the innate energy is still a reference." Huang Bowen's wording is quite rigorous, which is very suitable for his identity as a scientist.

Seeing that Chen Ze didn't ask any further questions at this time, Liang Yi continued to explain,

"Regardless of ancient and modern times, ordinary people's life will inevitably be affected by emotions, daily necessities, rice, oil and salt. Over time, they will naturally lose energy and spirit."

"So the first step for ordinary people to cultivate inner alchemy is to replenish essence!"

"How to make up? It's very simple, increase revenue and reduce expenditure."

"First of all, maintain a good life schedule, eat more nutritious foods such as meat, eggs, milk, etc., keep a good mood mentally, and the body will naturally accumulate energy."

"Secondly, there is restraint in sexual intercourse, that is, abstinence from sex and sex. This is to plug the loophole."

"Over time, the human body will naturally be able to achieve a state of fullness and energy, but most people cannot achieve these two points alone."

"Doctor Liang." Chen Ze, a young expert in questioning, spoke again, "Isn't there a saying about quitting meat and fish and being a vegetarian? Is there any basis for this saying?"
