Starting from crossing the Fengshen
Chapter 656 The Essence of Cultivation
Facing this future world, Chen Nan has too many doubts in his mind.
In fact, he wanted to know more about why he woke up from the Cemetery of Gods and Demons. After all, with his identity, he was not worthy of sleeping with the gods and demons.
Before the age of sixteen, he was a peerless genius that attracted everyone's attention, a young prodigy at the peak of the second level.
But after he turned sixteen, his cultivation level regressed instead of improved, and he was only at the middle stage of the first stage.
With this level of cultivation, he is just an ant in front of gods and demons.
While placing the herbs, Yin Qi said, "I don't know who built the God and Demon Cemetery. If you want to know, you can find the answer yourself.
As for why the so-called immortal gods and demons fell and sleep in the Cemetery of Gods and Demons, I do know something.
It is said that ten thousand years ago, a violent upheaval occurred between heaven and earth.
Countless strong men fought each other, and the mountains and rivers were shattered.
I think those gods and demons must have died in this great turmoil between heaven and earth.
Perhaps it was because of the war between gods and demons that the Eastern Fairyland and the Western Magical Continent shifted, and the two collided together to form today's Tianyuan Continent.
We are currently located at the junction of the East and the West.
Because of the collision and exchange between the East and the West, it is not surprising that people from the East and the West gather in our Xuefeng Town."
"Heaven and earth are in turmoil!"
Chen Nan's eyes lit up, and he asked hurriedly, "Why did the world undergo such a great upheaval that even the gods and demons were implicated? Wait, that's not right, did this cemetery of gods and demons precede the upheaval in the world?"
He suddenly realized a problem.
That year, he fought a decisive battle with the successor of the Way of Destruction and was defeated and died.
Logically speaking, it is impossible for him to be buried in the Cemetery of Gods and Demons, because there had been no major turmoil in the world before his death.
Unless the Cemetery of Gods and Demons has existed for a long time, but he just doesn't know about it.
Yin Qi turned around and said meaningfully, "Why the world is in turmoil is not something you and I can focus on right now. But I heard from the old people in the town that the God and Demon Cemetery already existed before the merger of the Eastern and Western Continents. As for whether it was before or after the great turmoil, that is unknown."
Chen Nan looked at Yin Qi who continued to sort the medicinal herbs. He had a feeling that the other party seemed to know the truth but just didn't tell him.
Then he smiled bitterly and shook his head.
How could the other party know about what happened ten thousand years ago?
It is better to wait until I get out and go to some major forces with ancient heritage to see if I can find ancient books with relevant records.
Chen Nan suppressed his disappointment and said, "Brother Yin, next, I hope you can teach me the language and writing I have now."
It is definitely better to have someone teach you than to figure things out on your own.
Yin Qi nodded and said, "Okay, but it will take a few days. I need to refine a few batches of pills."
The Qi Gathering Pills have been used up, and both he and his mother Yin need them.
Also, he was about to complete the internal organ training, and the next marrow training would also require the assistance of the marrow cleansing pill.
Chen Nan raised his eyebrows: "Pills, to increase cultivation?"
Yin Qi nodded: "Yeah."
Chen Nan frowned slightly. He remembered that his father Chen Zhan said that martial artists should not rely on external forces to practice, especially natural treasures, because this would hinder their own development.
Thinking of this, he kindly advised: "Brother Yin, as warriors of our generation, we should tap into our own potential when practicing, rather than relying on external things, which will shackle our own development."
Yin Qi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother Chen, what you said is biased. If we practice without the help of external objects, then what is the essence of heaven and earth that we absorb? In essence, practice is the process of plundering heaven and earth and strengthening ourselves."
"But……"
Chen Nan wanted to refute, but didn't know how to say it.
He regarded his father as a peerless hero, so naturally he believed whatever his father said was the truth.
But what Yin Qi said seemed to be correct.
Isn’t the vital energy of heaven and earth an external object?
There is also the saying, 'In essence, cultivation is the process of plundering the world and strengthening oneself'. Although this may sound devilish, it is a wise saying upon closer examination.
It’s just that Yin Qi is younger than him, and he instinctively feels that he is not as good as his father.
Yin Qi continued, "Everything in the world, except for the vital energy, all natural treasures, even the rare and precious ones, have impurities, more or less. If they accumulate in the human body over time, they will indeed hinder one's own progress.
But as long as you master the method and know how to remove and refine these impurities, there will be no doubt.
Another reason is psychological.
If one relies solely on external objects to improve one's cultivation, one will develop a dependent mentality, and eventually degenerate and neglect cultivation.
Over time, it will also restrict one's own progress." Chen Nan nodded thoughtfully and asked, "Wouldn't you?"
Yin Qi's tone was calm, but revealed his great determination: "Everything in the world is for my use, just like eating and drinking water. Would we slack off in practicing just because eating and drinking water are easy?"
Chen Nan was speechless.
He looked at Yin Qi, feeling as if he was facing his father Chen Zhan, and every word he said was full of deep meaning.
.........
Five days later.
Yin Qi came out of seclusion after refining the elixir.
This time of alchemy, a total of ten Marrow Cleansing Pills and eighty-five Qi Gathering Pills were obtained.
Ten marrow cleansing pills are enough for him to cultivate to the peak of marrow training.
As for the Qi Gathering Pill, it is a daily consumable.
Yin Qi walked out of the alchemy room and found that Chen Nan was not there. After asking his mother, he learned that Chen Nan had gone into the mountains to hunt. The other party did not want to live and eat for free in the Yin family and wanted to earn money to buy a house.
"Mother, these are thirty Qi Gathering Pills. You should practice more when you have time. I may go out to travel next. You have your cultivation, so you can protect yourself even if you encounter any danger."
Mother Yin asked nervously, "You are still going out to travel, when?"
Yin Qi said: "Let's wait another year. My current cultivation is still a little low, and it would be dangerous if I go out."
Although Yin's mother was reluctant, she also knew that her son had great ambitions. She couldn't tie him down by her side, so she could only nod and say, "Okay, I will practice seriously in the future."
……
at dusk.
Chen Nan came back carrying a fat grouse and told Yin Qi that he had hunted a wild boar weighing more than 500 kilograms today and sold it for three gold coins. He also asked Yin Qi how much it would cost to buy a yard near Yin's house.
Yin Qi told him that ten gold coins would be enough for an ordinary courtyard.
……
Night falls.
The pharmacy is actually also Yin Qi's study.
Yin Qi taught Chen Nan to read. In fact, the process of learning to read is also the process of learning modern common language.
In just one hour, Chen Nan learned thirty characters. After all, he was also a smart man, and his comprehension aptitude was at least at the heavenly fairy bone level, so his memory was naturally not bad.
At this rate, it will only take one month for Chen Nan to be able to communicate skillfully with others.
Because in daily spoken language, there are only about a thousand words.
But to read without difficulty, you need to master at least three thousand words.
Finally, Yin Qi said, "Too much is as bad as too little. You should first familiarize yourself with these thirty characters today. You continue to practice calligraphy, and I will go out to practice martial arts."
Chen Nan thanked him: "Okay, thank you for your help."
"No need to be so polite."
Yin Qi smiled, walked out of the pharmacy and came to the yard.
The moonlight is bright today. A full moon hangs in the sky, casting endless hazy moonlight.
Yin Qi took out a marrow cleansing pill and swallowed it.
He has already reached the peak of organ training, and by taking the marrow cleansing pill, he can enter the marrow training realm in one fell swoop.
Then he got into position and started practicing boxing.
call!call!call!
A strong wind was blowing in the yard, making Yin Qi's clothes rustle.
His blood was boiling, like a burning furnace, emitting scorching heat.
It was unknown how long it had been, but Yin Qi suddenly felt the heat in his body being withdrawn, and all the pores in his body closed instantly. His surging energy and spirit also collapsed and gathered into his bone marrow, causing his bone marrow to vibrate inexplicably.
Marrow training, done!
As he broke through to the marrow training realm, an even more powerful aura burst out from Yin Qi's body.
Chen Nan also walked out of the pharmacy at this time.
He looked at Yin Qi practicing martial arts in the yard and was extremely shocked.
Not only because Yin Qi was so powerful and almost reaching the peak of the second level, but also because Yin Qi's whole body exuded a terrifying blood energy, just like a red-hot furnace.
What kind of mysterious skill is this? (End of this chapter)
