Catalog of Destruction

Shi Xuan comforted Ming Qingyue and said, "This is none of your business, it's just his own choice."

Ming Qingyue nodded: "I'm just a little sad. He must have been greedy for more, and suddenly couldn't control the fire spirit energy that was introduced into his meridians, so he was burned like that from the inside out. Haha, actually speaking, If a casual cultivator like him doesn't have a family of disciples, it would be an advantage for us if he dies here and leaves behind those pills and spiritual stones." Although he was smiling, his expression did not look happy.

The two of them remained silent and continued to go up. When they were approaching Shi Xuanding's cave, Shi Xuan saw another monk's corpse being carried out from another cave. This person's body was like a sieve with countless holes: "This Could it be that you didn’t control it when you first broke through to receive the spiritual energy from heaven and earth? It looks like golden spiritual energy.”

Ming Qingyue looked at it, shook her head, and said with a curl of her lips: "This is a monk who has been in the Qi-entraining stage for many years, but he is rude and annoying. He bought a lot of pills this time and is going to retreat."

"Then why is he like this?" Shi Xuan was a little confused.

Ming Qingyue didn't know what she thought of, and she became a little happy again. She smiled slightly and said: "Then let me, who will be the senior sister in the future, explain it to you, Junior Brother Shi."

"I would like to hear the details, Senior Sister Ming." Shi Xuan hit the snake and put it on the stick.

"Junior Brother Shi, you are very polite. Hehe, in the Qi-inducing stage, after receiving the first trace of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, you have to subdue it, control it, and mix it with your own inner Qi according to the technique. Forming true energy or mana, and then using this trace of true energy that already belongs to oneself, which is part of one's own, to forge the soul, body, and meridians again, improving their endurance and control, so that they can take over next time Attract more spiritual energy from heaven and earth, repeat this, and finally all the inner energy will be transformed into true energy. At that time, you can absorb the spiritual energy from heaven and earth easily. This process usually takes about five years, and after the body and soul are tempered, after three Techniques of level 1 and below will not be of any use to them. This is one of the reasons why the combat power of the Qi-entraining stage is very different from that of the out-of-body stage." Ming Qingyue estimated Shi Xuan's foundation and was very patient. explained step by step.

"Well, another reason is that during the entrainment period, magic is used to cast spells, while during the out-of-body period, the soul power is used to cast spells. The two last for different periods of time." Shi Xuan replied smoothly.

"Yes. During the air-entraining stage, you can fly thousands of miles with a magic weapon and then rest and recover. During the out-of-body stage, you can only fly dozens of miles before you need to meditate to recover. And unlike the air-entraining stage, there are pills that can quickly restore mana. There are only some pills. The medicine can slowly restore the power of the soul to the monks in the out-of-body stage, and if the innate magical powers in the Qi-entraining stage can be cultivated to the sixth level, there is another gap." Ming Qingyue and Shi Xuan stood in front of his cave door. talk.

"Another point is that during the qi-entraining stage, the body is protected by true energy and has strong defense against various spells. Unlike the out-of-body and qi-nurturing stages, where only talismans and seals can be prepared, the preparations are not complete." Shi Xuan thought of that. It’s too late to use filthy energy to deal with those monks.

"Well, okay, I just mentioned that the qi-entraining stage to Xiaocheng is a process of tempering the soul, body, and meridians with true qi, and gradually improving their ability to withstand and control. Therefore, every time you receive the spiritual energy of heaven and earth during this period, There is a limit. If you exceed this limit, you will be torn apart by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth from the inside out." Ming Qingyue returned to what happened just now.

Shi Xuan pointed at the monk: "Is this the reason for him?"

Ming Qingyue nodded and said: "That's right. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is so dangerous. There have been powerful people who have created some methods of elixirs to practice the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in elixirs to make them soft. In this way, the energy is drawn. In the future, you can rely on the elixir to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and increase your true energy."

"However, no matter how gentle the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is, it is also the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. There must be a limit for taking pills every day. If it exceeds the endurance and control ability of the soul and body, it will still be extremely dangerous. The monk just bought a lot of pills I thought that if I took a little more pills every day, my cultivation would improve by leaps and bounds, but you saw the result, how stupid you are!”

As if afraid that Shi Xuan would not understand, Ming Qingyue made an analogy: "Just like everyone knows that it is better for ordinary people to eat more meat and seafood than just plain rice, but if you eat twelve meals a day, how much meat will you eat in each meal?" , seafood as usual, what will happen? The same is true for elixirs. They must be kept within a limit. Don't think that you can be more powerful by taking more elixirs than others. You can take them every day. There are only a few pills at most, so the difference between them is not much different."

Fortunately, Shi Xuan had not thought about relying mainly on elixirs to improve his cultivation. He was not disappointed at this time and replied with a smile: "But those with elixirs are much faster than those without elixirs."

Ming Qingyue rolled her eyes at Shi Xuan: "Let me tell you, relying on elixirs to improve your cultivation may seem fast, but in fact there are hidden worries in the future."

Shi Xuan was a little surprised now: "Why is this?"

"Although there are many cultivation techniques, many of them are not necessarily divided into seven levels of Qi training, such as those in Buddhism, but they are still divided into levels, front and back, because this is a step-by-step, interlocking process, like forging. During the physical phase, the physical body is strengthened to prepare for the generation of internal Qi. During the Qi-nourishing phase, internal Qi is generated, nourishing the soul, and strengthening the meridians and internal organs. The foundation laid in the previous two phases provides sufficient preparation for the soul to leave the body. The out-of-body stage also strengthens the soul and its control, enhances the body's sensitivity to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and enhances the body's ability to withstand the spiritual energy of the world, meridians, and internal organs, as well as the soul's control ability. These three stages together lay the foundation for absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth during the entrainment stage. Base."

Shi Xuan somewhat understood what Ming Qingyue was trying to say, but there was still a layer of ambiguity that had not yet been revealed, so he listened patiently.

"Infuriating the soul, coupled with the training of the soul control ability in the out-of-body period, lays the foundation for the unity of divine thoughts and souls. In the divine soul stage, the divine soul is unified, in the entrainment stage, mana and true energy are used, and in the out-of-body stage, soul control is added. The Dao mind honed in all the previous stages is the foundation of the Golden Elixir Dao.”

"So, the entire qi training period is a close process that is interlocked and follows each other step by step. If you take shortcuts, take tricks, or miss any stage of your homework in this process, you will definitely have to do it in other stages in the future. At this stage, you have to work ten times harder to make it up, or even never make it up." Ming Qingyue concluded in a calm tone.

Shi Xuan suddenly understood, and solemnly saluted Ming Qingyue with the gift of meeting a teacher: "Ms. Ming's words awakened Shi Xuan. He had seen pills and spirit stones before, and he was thinking about how to use them to speed up his cultivation progress. , but I almost went astray. This time, I thank you for clearing up the confusion!”

Ming Qingyue turned sideways, half-accepted Shi Xuan's gift, and then waved her hands sheepishly: "Actually, I don't know much about it myself. Just now I just repeated what my father usually told me, haha, even in a tone of voice I also learned from my father.”

Shi Xuan solemnly finished the ceremony: "The master of the workshop is really a wise man, but it's still Miss Ming who is kind enough to talk to Shi. You deserve this gift."

Ming Qingyue said in a playful tone: "Even if I have a good relationship, maybe one day I will be in trouble and I will have to be rescued by you."

Shi Xuan still replied solemnly: "If Miss Ming is in trouble in the future, Shi Xuan will definitely go through fire and water without hesitation."

"Okay, okay, I still have to take charge of the city guard, so I won't go into your cave to chat. By the way, when my father told me these truths, I will also tell you the last sentence,' Hey, the path to Taoism is to be neither hasty nor slow.'" Ming Qingyue strode down the cliff.

Shi Xuan pondered over what he had just said again on the spot. This time he really benefited a lot. Previously, he had thought of buying elixirs and taking them to increase his cultivation while he had enough control. But he didn't expect that he almost went astray. Although he had enough control, he still focused on tempering and improving the endurance of the physical body, meridians, and internal organs, instead of rushing to increase the cultivation of the soul.

I have to go to the market later to sell one magical weapon. If there is a suitable offensive magical weapon, I can sell both of them and buy a new one.

At the same time, I also need to buy two bottles of Soul Condensing Pill and a bottle of Hundred Refining Soul Strengthening Pill. Of course, Shi Xuan did not immediately throw the path he had just set to the dogs to be eaten. But these elixirs, in addition to increasing the soul's cultivation, can also slowly restore the soul's power when the soul's power is depleted. Therefore, Shi Xuan considered that he might encounter battles and chases in the future, so he bought some and used them as "blue" medicine to restore the power of the soul. After all, the world of cultivation is not peaceful.

In addition, after you buy it, you should try the medicinal properties of each bottle of elixir. Otherwise, when you are being hunted, you will find that the speed of recovering soul power after taking the elixir is much slower than you expected. It will be a lot of fun. Big.

He took out the token and pressed it on the door of the cave, while stimulating the spiritual guidance contained in the token. I saw a flash of light on the token, and a flash of light on the door. With a creak, the door slowly opened and retreated.

The cave is not big, with only one stone bed, one stone table, and four stone benches, but it is clean, refreshing, and full of spiritual energy. Although Shi Xuan's cultivation in the out-of-body period cannot absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the abundant spiritual energy is also useful for nourishing the body and soul. benefit.

Shi Xuan now has all his belongings in storage bags. There is nothing cumbersome on him, but he still has four other storage bags in his arms. Except for keeping one as a spare, the rest will be sold. of.

Following the instructions on the token, Shi Xuan opened the cave's defensive formation, then closed the door of the cave and walked towards Fangshi Street.

————When I got off work with ten minutes left in the afternoon, I was happily waiting for the weekend. Unexpectedly, I was temporarily arrested by my boss and had to work overtime until eight o'clock. Also, it should normally be "not in a hurry, not in a hurry", but I changed it to "not in a hurry, not in a hurry", which better expresses my meaning.
