The copy of the universe from the journey to the west

Chapter 120: Take the spirit as your teacher, study the law and realize the truth (ask for monthly tickets!)

Jiao Feng was extremely panicked at this moment. If he had offended his master's wife, would he still be able to have a good life in the future?
She wanted to call her "Master's Wife" to save her image, but she was afraid that if she called the wrong name, it would cause even bigger trouble.

The more important thing is that he hasn't succeeded in becoming a disciple yet!
Being exposed is still a small matter, but if someone whispers in his ear, then his plan to become a disciple will be aborted.

I felt very nervous and uneasy.

Su Ze did not feel any pleasure from getting revenge.

Now she just wants to know where Lu Chen is now?
Neither of them wanted to continue chatting anymore. They just wanted to be quiet and sort out the story.

However, before hanging up the phone, the two reached a certain consensus.

If the 'Taoist Ruchen' that the two people were talking about was really the Taoist Ruchen they knew, then the cooperation between the two families would start directly.

"Um... I haven't become a disciple yet."

Finally, before hanging up the phone, Jiao Feng told the truth hesitantly.

He has not yet become a disciple and is in the probation period: "If Sister Yinghu has any contact with Master, please help me put in a good word for us. Cooperation or something, that's all easy to talk about. Our Yin Yang Martial Arts School can make the biggest concessions."

Su Ze didn't say whether it was good or bad. She still needed to confirm the situation with Lu Chen. As for asking him to help put in a good word, that was not very realistic. She just said that if there was anything, just go to Lu Chen directly.

Then, with Jiao Feng feeling somewhat uneasy, he hung up the phone.

Dongfang Qi on the side slowly said, "In fact, if you had just directly stated your identity, the Sword Emperor would probably have agreed to our conditions."

Su Ze shook his head: "I let Tiansheng expand, not for myself, but to help Lu Chen. Since we are helping him, we can't use his name to cause trouble outside. Besides, we don't know whether the Sword Emperor is sincere or just fishing, so at this stage, we should observe for a while, and then ask Lu Chen if it is him that Jiao Feng met. And..."

At this point, Su Ze paused, then bit his teeth viciously and waved his white fist: "This damn Lu Chen! Where is this guy now? I was just about to go on a trip with him! But this guy ran away first!?"

Dongfang Qi was just about to nod his head in agreement with Su Ze's words, when Su Ze suddenly said the following sentence, which instantly made him look a little uncomfortable. He said faintly: "President, if you leave, what will happen to our Tiansheng Association?"

Well, I thought she was a strong woman, but who would have thought she was actually... ahem.

"Tiansheng Martial Arts School has Zhang Wanjun looking after it, Zhang Meng is in charge of overall planning, and you are in charge of intelligence. The others can do odd jobs or stay in charge of the branch martial arts school. What use am I here?"

Su Ze said as if it was a matter of course, "Besides, I founded the Tiansheng Association because I didn't get along with that Qiao guy. If it weren't for that little bitch who was always bragging and saying that Donglu Province must be her and she would become the boss of Donglu Province's civil organizations, I wouldn't bother to establish the Tiansheng Association. Humph, that little bitch has stopped yelling now, right? Any organization I set up will be better than her Blue Bird Association."

House sparrow... people call it bluebird!
Dongfangqi was silent.

There was no way to respond to this. If Bluebird knew what Su Ze said now, he would probably take the high-speed train from Bluebird City to Quancheng to fight Su Ze to the death.

That guy is very arrogant.

“Forget it, I’ll call Lu Chen first and ask him where he is.”

Having said that, Su Ze called Lu Chen.

At this time, Lu Chen was wandering around Pengque Mountain. Although it was all mountains and forests, the infrastructure projects of Daxia Kingdom were well done and the signal was full!

As soon as the phone rang, Lu Chen picked up it.

Listening to what Su Ze said, Lu Chen couldn't help but sigh that the world is so small.

How long have I known Jiao Feng, and yet Su Ze has already hooked up with him?
Lu Chen recounted how he met Jiao Feng: "...Well, that's it. I didn't accept him as my apprentice. I guess he doesn't even know my name. But, generally speaking, he has no ill intentions."

With the Guizang Compass in his hand, he can clearly tell who has ill intentions towards him.

Jiao Feng had some malice towards him at first, but after knowing that he was Taoist Ruchen, that malice disappeared instantly, and all that was left was kindness.

However, no matter how well-intentioned he is, Lu Chen will not accept him as his apprentice.

Jiao Feng has good talent and is not too old. His progress in cultivation will not be slow. It won’t be long before he can reach the acquired realm.

For talented people, the acquired stage is actually just a transition. It is difficult for ordinary people to break through the eight extraordinary meridians in the body, but it is relatively easy for geniuses.

Of course, this also requires resources.

However, with the existence of copies of all heavens, will the Chosen One lack resources?

As long as Jiao Feng's future does not end prematurely, he will become an innate warrior sooner or later. When he reaches the innate realm, he probably won't think like he does today.

Besides, his own practice has just got on the right track. According to his own thinking, he is not yet qualified to become a master and accept disciples, and Lu Chen does not have so much leisure time to accept disciples.

After finding the head of Senior Brother Zhinan in the real world, Lu Chen was eager to know what the identities of the other senior brothers were in the real world?
The World of Time relies on the Three Real Worlds for its existence. Perhaps the senior brother in the World of Time is not the same as the world in the real world.

But, what if there is an accident?

Just as Guangdao said, if one could escape the years and turn the false into the true... maybe one could connect with the real world?

Just like what Senior Brother Guangdao said, Guangdao in the Journey to the West world is also his 'other self'!
The term "he and I" is not unfamiliar to Lu Chen.

Breaking away from time and being the only one in the universe? Lu Chen had no idea how many versions of the concept of "him and me" he had read in the novel.

If one can attain the state of true flow, does it mean that all him and me are actually me?

Of course, this is just Lu Chen's guess.

However, no matter how much it is just a guess, Lu Chen has to treat it as if it is true.

Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of one.

"I thought I had another junior fellow apprentice."

On the other end of the phone, Su Ze laughed.

Lu Chen was speechless: "You call me Master, but I am just teaching you some tips on using CAD and some methods of curtain wall design, not a method of cultivation."

"Then tell me whether you have taught me."

Su Ze's words made Lu Chen even more helpless: "If you say so, then so be it."

Well, we have all the founding disciples.

After chatting for a while, Su Ze asked Lu Chen about his opinion on Jiao Feng and Yin Yang Martial Arts School.

"If Jiao Feng can be trusted... we can cooperate." Su Ze seemed to be talking to Lu Chen, but also seemed to be talking to himself.

Lu Chen did not comment on this. Whether it was the Tiansheng Conference or the Yin-Yang Pavilion, it made no difference to him.

He is not interested in this, and he does not like fighting for power or profit.

On the path of cultivation one may need Dharma, land, companions, wealth and so on, but for him, enough is enough, and he has been consistent, and his original intention has never changed much.

If it’s mine, I’ll take it. If it’s not mine, I won’t take it!
Tianshenghui and Yinyang Pavilion might unite with each other because of him, but for Lu Chen, this is just an alliance of two forces. If he needs help, he will find them. If they can help, they will help, and if they can't, it doesn't matter.

It will remain the same as it was before.

Although Su Ze did not see Lu Chen's expression at this moment, he could imagine it.

His expression must be calm and his face as white as water.

"No, Master, you wouldn't really enter Taoism, would you?" Su Ze asked the doubt that had been buried in his heart for several days.

Lu Chen replied: "Not yet, no certificate of ordination, no Taoist book, no matter in the real world or the dungeon world."

Who can issue the certificate of ordination to an immortal cave like the Three Stars Cave of the Slanting Moon?

So although he called himself a Taoist, he was actually just a wild Taoist.

Su Ze finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let's not talk about it for now. My phone is running out of battery. I'll call you when it's back online."

Lu Chen took a look at the battery level of his mobile phone. He had not charged his mobile phone for nearly two days from yesterday to today, and now there was less than ten charges left.

As soon as Su Ze said "OK", Lu Chen hung up the phone. Su Ze was so angry that he almost smashed his phone while trying to act cute and coquettish.

"You can tell at first glance that he's an old straight man."

Dongfang Qi was gloating on the side.

"Are you looking for a beating?" Su Ze was furious and raised his hand.

Dongfang Qi stood up immediately and said, "I remember there is still some information that has not been processed. I'll leave first." He turned around and slipped away.

Su Ze looked at his phone and remembered that he had forgotten to ask where Lu Chen was going!
When she called Lu Chen again, the phone was turned off. Su Ze instantly transformed from a lady into a crazy woman, scratching her ears and cheeks. Her originally straight hair was scratched into a mess.

.........

At this time, Lu Chen did not leave Pengque Mountain directly, but wandered around Pengque Mountain again.

Although he had not yet crossed the bridge between heaven and earth and was unable to sense the spiritual charm of the forest between heaven and earth, Lu Chen could still feel from the natural landscape that Pengque Mountain was indeed a fairyland.

When the Guizang Compass's function of viewing the heaven and earth was turned on, the scenery in front of him changed instantly. The mountains and rivers seemed to have "qi" at this moment.

The bumps and depressions formed by the course of the mountains and rivers are just like the acupuncture points on a human body.

The earth's energy gathers from all directions and surrounds Pengque Mountain in the center. It is a blessed place. I just wonder what kind of immortal treasure land this place was in ancient times?
Time flies, and the world changes dramatically. Perhaps the Pengque Mountain thousands of years ago is very different from the Pengque Mountain today.

However, the changes in the veins of the earth are always slower, and Lu Chen also gained some insights from it.

The human body is changing all the time, and the heaven and earth are actually changing as well.

But compared with the changes in human beings, the time of heaven and earth is too long, and a person's life seems as insignificant as a moment in heaven and earth.

Lu Chen confirmed his own cultivation level, and a sense of clarity appeared in his mind.

The Zifu Niwan was slightly moved, but the Baihui acupoint was not opened, so nothing could be discovered.

Lu Chen walked and stopped, and toured Pengque Mountain all over.

When he was hungry, he picked wild fruits and hunted for food. When he was sleepy, he found a piece of open space and sat cross-legged.

With magical powers protecting you, you won’t be bitten by insects.

The sky is the quilt and the earth is the bed.

The stars in the sky shine brightly, and the light twinkles like holes. Suddenly, the sun and the moon change phases.

Lu Chen's understanding of himself became greater and greater, but those understandings were still a little hazy, as if covered by a veil and unable to be completely revealed to others.

Fortunately, Lu Chen is not an impatient person. Understanding the nature of heaven and earth is a process in itself. How can one have sudden enlightenment every day?

In his spare time, Lu Chen would take out his health-preserving exercises and practice them.

The "Health Preserving Exercises", also known as the "Bear Meridian and Bird Stretching Techniques", is almost the same as what Brother Zhinan practiced. Some places may have undergone some slight changes due to the differences in the world or the changes of the times.

However, Lu Chen can correct some wrong movements by himself.

It's just that I can't have a good grasp of the mysterious "airflow" in my body.

The power cultivated by "The Art of Bear Sutra and Bird Stretching" was not magic power, and Lu Chen was unable to sense it for a while.

As the name suggests, "Xiong Jing Niao Stretching" actually means climbing branches like a bear and stretching legs like a bird.

That is to say, it is the movement of the body, but the "Bear and Bird Stretch Technique" does not only include the two forms of bear and bird.

Instead, many of its movements are linked to other animals, such as stretching, bending, pitching, walking, lying, leaning, wandering, or walking slowly, and all its postures and movements are different.
It's just that the Bear Meridian and Bird Meridian occupies the largest part of it, and because it is the earliest method of practicing by imitating the form of animals, the method passed down by Bian Que and the Qin family was named after this method.

According to what is said in the book, "The Art of Bear Jing and Bird Stretch" focuses on "guiding".

It means the art of guiding.

The opening line is: [The ancient immortals practiced Daoyin, with a bear neck and an owl look, pulling and twisting the waist and body, and moving all the joints, in order to prolong aging.]

Of course, here we are only talking about the body shape, and the body movements in "The Technique of Bear Sutra and Bird Stretch" also need to be coordinated with the guiding technique, so there is the following sentence.

[Breathing in and out, expelling the old and taking in the new, like a bear stretching its wings and a bird stretching its wings, is all for longevity. This is the practice of Daoyin! ]

Breathe in and out, expel the old and take in the new. These eight words are the key points.

When doing the movements, you also need to coordinate your breathing intervals and circulate the Qi.

However, this "qi" is different from the "qi" that Lu Chen practiced.
After practicing several times, Lu Chen just felt a little awkward, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

I just feel like I might be on the wrong path.

With a thought, and with the help of the "viewing" of the Guizang Compass, Lu Chen saw that wisps of gas between heaven and earth slowly entered his body with his movements and breathing.

But sometimes, when he breathed incorrectly, those wisps of air would instantly dissipate without being absorbed by him.

Or maybe the guidance was wrong, and the air absorbed into the body was exhaled again.

"The Bear Sutra and Bird Stretching Technique can help you comprehend the spiritual rhythm of heaven and earth in advance? No, that's not right. This is not the spiritual rhythm of heaven and earth, but... Qi? Not the Qi of heaven and earth, but the Qi of all things?"

When seeing the gases entering the body, Lu Chen was stunned.

During the foundation-building and Qi-training stage, one can gather Qi, but the Qi gathered will be different due to different methods. For example, the Qi gathered by Lu Chen in the "Sun and Moon Qi-Training Dragon and Tiger Method" is the essence of the sun and the moon.

There are also other kinds of qi, such as the five elements, wind and thunder, mountains, rivers, veins of the earth, animals and plants, and the list is countless.

Of course, the sun and moon energy is the mainstream, symbolizing the yin and yang, and is also the most orthodox and easiest to get started with.

Wherever there is light from the sun and the moon, one can absorb the essence of the sun and the moon.

Therefore, even in the Three Stars Cave of the Slanting Moon, most of the brothers who practiced meditation focused on collecting the energy of the sun and the moon. There were only slight differences in the methods or tricks of practice.

"The Bear Sutra and Bird Stretching Technique is about drawing the energy of all things for your own use?"

Through the function of Guizang Compass, Lu Chen carefully sensed the 'Qi of All Things'.

After gaining a deeper understanding, he distinguished the Qi of all things more carefully.

To be more precise, the 'qi of all things' should be the qi of animals, not the qi of plants.

All things have spirits, and all spirits have energy.

The "Bear Meridian and Bird Stretching Technique" is to guide the spirit energy of animals into the body and generate the "qi" thereby.

"It feels like 'knowing the longevity of turtles and cranes, so I follow their Qigong exercises to prolong my life.'"

Seeing this, Lu Chen was not disappointed, but became more interested.

The original intention of going down the mountain disappeared in an instant. There are so many animals in the mountains. Where can I find so many wild animals after going down the mountain?

Oh, you can go to the zoo, but why go far away when there are forest animals to imitate?

Besides, Lu Chen can’t wait that long.

Once Lu Chen became addicted to research, he couldn't stop. At this moment, he seemed to have returned to the time when he had just entered the Xieyue Sanxing Cave and started practicing.

It seemed that many questions emerged in his mind every moment, but many of them were solved by him as soon as they appeared.

With one movement, one breath, many problems can be solved.

Ask yourself and prove it yourself!
The cycle goes on and on!
Lu Chen forgot about the movements and guiding techniques in the booklet "Health Preserving Exercises".

He found a more precise way of practice.

Take the forms of animals in the mountains and forests when they are sleeping, hunting, running, and playing as your teacher, and use the "viewing" function of the Guizang compass to observe the "flow of qi" as a guide.

Lu Chen could tell instantly where there were mistakes or omissions. Although it consumed some mana, it didn't matter. If he had no more mana, he could just sit cross-legged and absorb the essence of the sun and the moon to recover.

Just like this, in just three days, Lu Chen changed everything recorded in "Health Preserving Exercises" beyond all recognition, and turned it completely into his own method of practice.

"It is no longer worthy of the name 'Health-preserving Kung Fu'."

Lu Chen knew that he had named it "Wasteland", so he simply renamed it "The Art of Bear Stretching and Bird Stretching".

"It's just that the 'Bear Sutra Bird Stretching Technique' is not yet completely complete. However, if you encounter other animals in the future, you can continue to supplement it."

After it was basically completed, Lu Chen nodded.

He has completely grasped the core of the "Bear Sutra and Bird Stretch Technique".

The animal form and the flow of qi are the core.

As long as you understand these two points, "The Art of Bear Stretching and Bird Stretching" can theoretically be infinitely filled and supplemented!
As long as there are enough different animals and the aura they emit, that will be enough.

Just like the 'method of preparing prescriptions' that Zhinan taught him, now Lu Chen not only mastered the "Bear Jing Bird Stretch Technique", but also mastered the research method of the "Bear Jing Bird Stretch Technique".

Straight to the core!

Practicing according to the practice methods is what ordinary practitioners should do.

But what Lu Chen did was to study the methods and techniques of cultivation!
At this point, the research work on "The Art of Bear Stretching and Bird Stretching" came to a temporary end, and Lu Chen's addiction to research also subsided.

Further research is nothing more than observing a few more animals and observing the flow of spiritual energy in several different animals.

This is no longer research, but just repetitive mechanical work.

You can do it when you are free and bored, without having to squeeze out time for it.
