return from cultivation

Chapter 588 What is Dan Dao
Hearing from Song Wenlun that he came to find him to compete in alchemy, Su Hang really thought he heard it wrong.He is not an alchemist in the capital of Dayan Kingdom, even if he really finds a place to belong to, it should be the land of Hongyu.Let a foreigner like him be the representative, isn't Dayan afraid of being ashamed?

However, Song Wenlun thought very clearly, if it is really embarrassing, losing is even more embarrassing.Furthermore, even if Su Hang really came from the land of Hongyu, so what?The alchemists in the entire capital came to win him over, couldn't they compare to Hong Yu who didn't care about alchemy at all?That place has always been ruled by force, and the power of sword cultivators is so huge that not even a weapon refiner can occupy the main position.

In comparison, the environment in the capital of Dayan Kingdom is much better.Song Wenlun has the confidence to win Su Hang over from Hongyu.

Of course, he wouldn't take the initiative to say such thoughts, otherwise it would be too deliberate.

Soon, Song Wenlun brought Suhang to a large courtyard in the capital, where many people were already surrounded, all of them were Dayan Dantang or those who were interested in alchemy.

Qiu Yuanhua did not come. As the capital of the capital, he has many affairs to deal with.And it's hard to tell who will win and who will lose in this fight. It's congratulatory if you win, but what if you lose?Could it be that he is such a powerful person, he still has to lose face in person?

Xie Hexuan also came. When he saw Suhang, he immediately ran over and said with surprise on his face, "It's good that you came. I was afraid that Fellow Daoist Wen would not invite you just now!"

Su Hang smiled and said, "It's a little effort, it's hard to refuse."

"Arrogance!" The words were heard by another group of people, and someone walked over with a sullen face.The man was wearing a green robe, with three gold threads embroidered on his right shoulder. He looked at Suhang with a gloomy face, and said, "It's ridiculous for an alchemist in the capital of Dayan Kingdom to have a little person like you who doesn't understand the heights of the sky and the earth!"

Su Hang looked puzzled, he was new here, so why didn't he understand the heights of the heavens and the depths of the earth.Song Wenlun and Xie Hexuan looked at each other, and they both understood why the other party said that.

That person is from the capital of Fuyuan, and he is one of the main masters in this alchemy competition.Earlier Song Wenlun said that he was going to invite a master of alchemy, as long as he came, he would definitely be able to beat Fuyuan Kingdom.People were not happy to hear these words, but after Suhang came, they said that it was easy to do, so people naturally thought that they underestimated their meaning.

"This is Sun Huahan, the third-grade alchemist in Fuyuan Capital, who is best at refining blood-qi elixir, which can increase Qi and blood by [-]% in the Kaifu state and [-]% in the Tongmai state..."

Before Song Wenlun finished his introduction, he was interrupted by another person on the opposite side.The man sneered, and said: "The news about Alchemist Song is a bit outdated. Alchemist Sun has raised the Blood Qi Pill to a higher level as early as a few months ago. Now, practitioners in the Tongmai Realm can increase their Qi and blood by a full [-]%! "

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.The improvement of qi and blood means that the physical body will become stronger.Practitioners usually fight and use the physical body much more than the immortal golden body.Therefore, the role of the blood qi pill is self-evident.

Song Wenlun was also a little surprised. At this time, someone from the capital of Dayan Kingdom snorted coldly and said: "What is a mere [-]%? I heard people say a few days ago that there is a town on the territory of Hongyu, which has energy that can increase the energy level by several times." The panacea of ​​blood!"

"It's nonsense!" Sun Huahan said with a proud face, "There is absolutely no pill in the world that can increase Qi and blood several times. I have studied this kind of panacea for decades, and I just saw the hope of doubling it." The territory of Hongyu has never paid much attention to alchemy, so the news must be false, and it is not credible to spread rumors."

"That is, if the land of Hongyu can refine the panacea that can increase the energy and blood several times, it will not be the first in the country? In the competition over the years, none of them dare to take the lead." Someone said.

Suhang was not interested in listening to people's arguments here, so he opened his mouth and asked, "How is the alchemy competition?"

Song Wenlun replied: "Usually there are two competitions. The first competition is about alchemy, the second competition is knowledge, and the third competition is alchemy."

Speaking of the Alchemy Scripture refers to the understanding of the Tao of Alchemy. Everyone can learn it. It is up to everyone to comment on whether it is good or bad.Generally, at this stage, there will be a lot of disputes, because everyone has different understandings of Dan Dao, and sometimes, there will be completely conflicting ideas.It is not easy to convince the other party.

The second round of identification was much simpler. Both sides took out ten kinds of elixir, and whoever recognized more and said everything would win.In order to make it difficult for the opponent as much as possible and increase the odds of winning for one's own side, these elixirs are usually strange and weird, picked out from nowhere.It is even simpler than alchemy. For the same kind of elixir, whoever refines the best elixir wins.

After hearing this, Su Hang felt a little dumbfounded, feeling that this was no different from the theory plus practical exam on Earth.Moreover, the invigilator is the student himself, seems a bit too childish?
But do as the Romans do, since people compare it so much, he can't say much, so he nodded to show that he understands.Now that he's here, Suhang doesn't intend to be too pretentious. The sooner he finishes his work, the sooner he can go back to practice.

In the first session of the alchemy lecture, because everyone can participate, and it is difficult to determine the outcome, Su Hang is too lazy to speak.Just stand under the high platform and listen to those alchemists explaining their understanding.

In the beginning, this kind of competition was to increase the amount of knowledge of alchemists from various countries.Manpower is exhausted, if we can unite, we can develop faster.It's a pity that due to the conflict of interests, the competition gradually evolved into what it is now, just to crush you and take your prescription.Many alchemists have worked hard for more than ten years to develop a pair of alchemy formulas, but they were snatched away before they could win any benefits for themselves.

After a long time, most of them are afraid to participate in such a competition, for fear of losing.

But Song Wenlun is different from Xie Hexuan, they don't want to lose, but they are not afraid of losing.People fight for breath, Buddha receives a stick of incense, if he doesn't even dare to show his head, how can he talk about being born for alchemy?

Alchemists in this era have a very one-sided understanding of alchemy.Most people, starting from the perspective of elixir, talked about the effects of various elixirs on practitioners.Such a theory can even be memorized by alchemy boys in later generations.Suhang was too lazy to listen, so he just sat on the ground and closed his eyes to meditate.

This gesture of his made the alchemists in the capital of Fuyuan a burst of indignation, and even felt that he was ignorant and fearless.Even the alchemists in the capital of Dayan Kingdom have some criticisms.

Only Song Wenlun ate the panacea Suhang refined before, and the effect was remarkable.But no matter how remarkable the effect is, few people will believe it without seeing or experiencing it with their own eyes.If it weren't for the high prestige of Song Wenlun and Xie Hexuan, and the support of Qiu Yuanhua, the capital of the capital, they would have reprimanded Suhang long ago.

Even if you want to lose, at least you have to lose decently. How can you behave so unbearably?
After a long time, the alchemists of the two countries had almost finished their speeches. Sun Huahan looked at Suhang, who had always closed his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Isn't this person going to speak on stage? Waiting for an exchange?"

Suhang really has such an idea, just like the communication between college students and elementary school students, what's the point?It's just that Song Wenlun also persuaded him to say a few words in a low voice, so as not to fall into the shoes of others.

There was no other way, Su Hang had no choice but to get up and go on stage.Standing on the newly built high platform, looking at the alchemists under the stage, Suhang said: "The heaven and the earth are the melting pot, and we are the panacea. Turn yourself into a panacea, break out of the furnace, this is the best way I am the melting pot, and I use spiritual energy as the pill. This is the way of the middle vehicle. Taking fine gold as the furnace, and using all things as the pill, this is the path of the lower vehicle.”

"Nonsense!" Sun Huahan was the first to stand up and reprimanded angrily: "According to what you said, all I'm waiting for are small paths?"

The other alchemists, including Song Wenlun, all looked ugly.They have devoted all their life's effort to the alchemy way, but now, some people say it's a small way?

Suhang glanced at Sun Huahan, and replied: "I'm talking about the Dao of Heaven and Earth. Compared with it, the Dao of Alchemy is naturally a small road. However, the three thousand roads lead to the same goal. If they reach the extreme, they may not be the Dao."

This sentence has been widely recognized in later generations.

The heaven and earth endow practitioners with strength, but they also confine them within this heaven and earth.So what if we reach the realm of heaven and man?Isn't it subject to the jurisdiction of heaven and earth?Just like the elixir in the medicine cauldron, it is a panacea that can transform pills out of the furnace.If you can't jump out, it will be just a residue in the end.

What Su Hang said was about the essence of comprehension. Only when one realizes one's position in this world and strives to transcend oneself can one have the possibility of transforming into alchemy.

Of course, if you practice alchemy, you can refine elixir and become a legendary immortal, which is naturally a way to transcend.In this way, Dan Dao became the Dao.It's just that before that, it was always a small path among the three thousand paths.

Only a few people can vaguely hear the words of Suhang.This kind of concept is somewhat beyond the times, and practitioners who still only look at the eyes cannot realize the connection between heaven and earth and themselves for the time being.

However, in a high-rise building thousands of meters away, Qiu Yuanhua sat at the table with a glass of wine in his hand, and muttered: "The world is a melting pot, and I am an elixir... Wonderful, I didn't expect, This little guy can tell such a profound mystery."

There was a person sitting across from him, also holding a wine glass. Hearing this, he nodded and praised: "One word wakes up the dreamer. Although we have entered the realm of heaven and man, why are we not that unformed elixir? If it hadn't been broken out of the furnace, It's just a middle-of-the-road, hard to get on the road."

"But how difficult it is to transcend this world. Even a person like the king is impossible. From this point of view, the so-called Dao is nothing more than a mirror." Qiu Yuanhua sighed, feeling a little bitter in his heart.

In the courtyard, Sun Huahan and others condemned Su Hang, thinking that he had insulted Dan Dao.Suhang secretly sighed, knowing that it was really impossible to communicate with these people.It is only alchemy, only Hinayana, and only by seeing the essence of the world clearly from the way of alchemy can one hope to reach the top of the road.He didn't say anything more, just walked off the stage and gave up his seat.Since these people don't understand, why bother talking.
