Taoist Myth: I am the last true immortal in the world

Chapter 26
The sun is shining brightly outside the dormitory.

Inside, Chen Yun followed the preliminary preparations for "Hua Jing Gong".

"The first step is digestion."

He first stretched his palm to Mingmen, and then slowly and gently rubbed it downwards until he reached the sacrum.

again.

three times.

Fifteen times.

81 were quickly performed.

Chen Yun felt the food he had just eaten being digested gently, "Generally, it goes through one to four cycles. I chatted with Wang Zaixi for so long before, and there is not much food left in my stomach. Just do it once."

With digestion complete, it’s time to meditate.

He glanced at the open window and was quite satisfied. It was best for the air to circulate when meditating, but it was not suitable to meditate when the wind was blowing everywhere. The door should be closed as much as possible to prevent being disturbed.

Chen Yun is now in a state of confinement and no one will disturb him.

Therefore, he sat cross-legged directly, with his head straight and his neck straight, his lower jaw slightly retracted, and his tongue touching the roof of his mouth.

After completing the basic movements, Chen Yun did not close his eyes in a hurry, but first calmed down and breathed steadily.

When his mood calmed down completely and his breathing became even, he slowly closed his eyes.

It's not like shutting everything down, but just leaving a ray of light.

He focused on his breathing.

Because he had been meditating frequently for a hundred days of foundation building, Chen Yun was able to master it and quickly entered a state of concentration.

He could clearly feel that after the food was digested by the stomach, it turned into water and grain essence and spread to the spleen.

then……

Well, Chen Yun couldn't feel anything anymore.

The feeling of the stomach digesting food is easy to detect, and the spleen's micronization of water and grain essence into acquired essence is almost undetectable.

Although Chen Yun knew the location of the spleen after studying tirelessly these days, he really couldn't feel that the spleen transformed the essence of water and grain into the acquired essence.

I meditated for about half an hour.

Really unable to find that feeling, he had no choice but to stop.

"How can I refine grains if I can't even feel how my spleen transforms the essence of water and grain into acquired essence?"

Chen Yun frowned slightly, "This is almost the same as when I couldn't feel where the meridians were when I was building the foundation for a hundred days. It's just that the foundation building soup helped me when I was building the foundation for a hundred days. When the true energy traveled around the meridians, I feel it and understand what to do next. I haven’t made the essence soup yet, so I can only figure it out on my own, and it seems that the progress will not be accelerated.”

If you are normal, you can start buying the medicinal materials required for the essence soup and then brew it.

But now he is in confinement and cannot go out to buy medicinal materials.

"I'll try again first. If I really can't feel it, I'll ask Senior Brother Wang Zaixi tomorrow."

Thinking about it, Chen Yun tried again.

……

The next day, early in the morning.

Wang Zaixi came to the window again.

Except when he explains cultivation in detail, he speaks simply and clearly at other times.

After hearing that Chen Yun could not understand how the spleen should transform the essence of water and grain into acquired essence, Wang Zaixi shook his head and said: "Practice requires one's own perception, and I can't help you with this."

Chen Yun said regretfully: "Okay, I'll try it myself later."

"Well, I have nothing to do. I'll go first."

After saying that, Wang Zaixi smiled inexplicably and left.

To be honest, Wang Zaixi was shocked when he learned that Chen Yun had completed foundation building in such a short time. But today, when he heard that Chen Yun's cultivation progress was no different from ordinary people, his mood suddenly improved, and he showed a rare smile. .

This was not a smile of ridicule, but a smile of restored confidence.

The confidence that was lost somewhere was found again.

After Chen Yun was sure that no one could help him understand how the spleen works, he could only try again quietly.

……

Time passes day by day.

Finally, the fifteen-day confinement period is over.

Early that morning, Chen Yun was released by Wang Laozhi himself.

Wang Laozhi stood in front of the door and asked with a straight face: "What insights have you gained from this confinement?"

Chen Yun bowed his head and saluted, saying, "Yun realizes his mistake, and it breaks his heart."

Well, this sentence is a scene statement.

In fact, he was immersed in cultivation for more than ten days without reflecting at all.

Seeing his sincere attitude, Wang Laozhi nodded slightly with satisfaction, "Now that I know that I regret it, there is no such thing as a good deed. Okay, from now on you go to work in the medicine garden in the morning, and after lunch, go to the Talisman Making Hall to help, otherwise Master Nephew Cai too busy."

Chen Yun was stunned for a moment, "Are you going to help in the Talisman Making Hall in the afternoon?" Wang Laozhi said helplessly: "Master Nephew Cai is responsible for the miscellaneous matters in the temple, while Zai Xi is responsible for teaching the martial arts to the disciples. Originally, Lin Chen worked in the Talisman Making Hall. However, he was driven down the mountain by me, and the remaining long-term workers performed their duties. I have been busy recently and have no time to go down the mountain to recruit new long-term workers. It just so happens that your medicine garden is not too busy, so I will go over and help Master Nephew Cai for the time being."

Chen Yun understood and responded, "Okay, I'll be there in the afternoon."

End the conversation.

Wang Laozhi walked away with his hands behind his back.

Chen Yun went to Jingxin Hall to have breakfast.

In the Jingxin Hall, except Wang Zaixi and Cai Rujin, all the other long-term workers are there.

Sitting on the table on the left near the door are two seniors, Wang Siyan and Yu Luping, who work as female prostitutes, and on the right are Senior Brother Zhao, Senior Brother Tang and others.

Further inside are Zhang Qian, Li Si and others who are good friends with Chen Yun.

Perhaps it was because they hadn't seen Chen Yun for a long time, but when everyone who was having a meal saw him stepping into the cafeteria, they all looked at him.

Chen Yun didn't care what everyone was looking at and went straight to the table where Zhang Qian, Li Si and Brother Ding were dining.

Zhang Gan smiled and greeted, "Junior Brother Chen, are you out?"

Although this was a word of concern, Chen Yun felt as if he had been released from prison.

But he still responded with a smile, "Well, it finally came out."

Li Si was a relatively kind person and took the initiative to get a bowl and chopsticks for him, "Hurry up and have breakfast first. There will be a lot of work in the medicine garden later."

"Ok."

Chen Yun sat down, picked up a spoon and filled a bowl of porridge.

Just getting ready to eat.

Senior Brother Ding, who has always been relatively cold-hearted, suddenly asked: "Junior Brother Chen, I heard that you completed the foundation construction more than ten days ago?"

Everyone seemed to be a little interested in this issue. Some people slowed down their eating movements, and everyone pricked up their ears to listen.

Wang Siyan and Yu Luping are like this.

The same goes for Senior Brother Tang and Senior Brother Zhao.

Not to mention Zhang Qian and Li Si at the same table, both of whom had curious eyes.

Chen Yun snorted, "The foundation building is complete."

Hearing this, everyone whispered.

"How long has he been here?"

"It's only been less than a month and a half so far."

"Has the foundation been built in twenty days?"

Everyone looked quite surprised.

Senior Brother Ding looked a little impressed, and then asked: "Now that the foundation is completed, I think Senior Brother Wang Zaixi should teach you the method of refining grain and turning it into essence. Can you achieve anything now?"

Zhang Gan said with a smile: "Junior brother Ding, what are you talking about? Junior brother Chen will finish building the foundation in just twenty days, and you won't be able to refine the grain and turn it into essence at your fingertips?"

Li Si nodded in agreement.

The rest of the people all thought the same way, thinking that Chen Yun was so talented that refining grain into essence should be easy.

But what everyone didn't expect was that Chen Yun said calmly and generously: "I haven't seen the door yet."

"Ah?" Zhang Qian wondered: "You haven't found out yet? Junior Brother Chen, what do you mean by this?"

Senior Brother Ding was also a little puzzled.

This is also true for others such as Li Si, Wang Siyan, and Senior Brother Tang.

Chen Yun told the truth, "I can't feel the spleen turning into essence, so I can't see the way."

Hearing this, Li Si laughed and said, "I see, Junior Brother Chen, please don't worry. I was the same at the beginning. It took me three full months to realize a little bit. You only have ten days, so don't worry." So confidence was lost.”

Zhang Gan rolled his eyes and said: "You are you, can Junior Brother Chen be like you? It only took him more than twenty days to build the foundation. He is a proud man of heaven. Logically speaking, he should be able to feel..."

Halfway through the words, he came to his senses and quickly changed his words: "Well, you can't rush this kind of thing, Junior Brother Chen, don't be stressed."

Chen Yun didn't feel any pressure.

Anyway, after he came out of confinement this time, he was going to buy the medicinal materials needed to make the essence soup.

As long as you wait for the essence soup to be boiled, you should be able to quickly understand the principle, and then you can practice on your own even without taking the essence soup.

However, everyone didn't think so.

Whether it was Senior Brother Ding, Senior Brother Wang Siyan, Senior Brother Tang, and others, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Originally, they believed that Chen Yun was a peerless genius who had spent more than [-] days building the foundation, and that he would be expected to truly become a disciple of the Taoist Temple in the future, so they always felt a little pressure to get along with him.

Now that they know that Chen Yun is no different from everyone else in the stage of refining grain and essence, they feel that they can get along as equals in the future without so much pressure, so they are naturally relieved.

Chen Yun didn't know what everyone was thinking at all. He just wanted to quickly gather the medicinal materials and brew the essence soup so that he could quickly enter the stage of refining grains and transforming into essence.

He secretly hoped in his heart that with the essence-transforming soup to help him practice, he should be able to refine grains and transform essence quickly, right?
