Simply put, the first level of "The Great Dao Jue" is equivalent to the introductory stage of cultivation. What needs to be completed in this stage is what Taoism often calls "refining essence into qi".

That is, convert the food you consume and the spiritual energy that is free from heaven and earth into your own true qi.

When the true qi in the body reaches a certain level and quantitative change causes qualitative change, practitioners can enter the next stage.

The first level of "The Great Dao Jue" divides the process of refining essence into qi into ten stages. Each stage has corresponding cultivation techniques and meridian operation diagrams. If you complete the ten stages step by step, you can naturally complete the first level of "The Great Dao Jue" practice.

The obscure magic techniques that seemed to be full of the ultimate principles of heaven and earth had been understood very thoroughly by Xia Ruofei, so after he took a deep breath and gathered himself, he began to try to practice the first meridian operation diagram.

The first step in cultivation is to sense the free energy between heaven and earth.

Xia Rufei stepped over this extremely difficult threshold for ordinary people without any effort.

Because the spiritual energy in the spiritual map space can be said to be thousands of times that of the outside world, and Xia Rufei himself is the owner of the spiritual map space, and has long established a flesh-and-blood connection with the space, so he has become more sensitive to the spiritual energy sensing in the space.

Therefore, as soon as Xia Rufei used his mind method, he almost had a flash of thoughts, and the mist-like spiritual energy floating in the space was attracted by Xia Rufei.

However, the moment a trace of spiritual energy was sucked into Xia Rufei's body, the innate pure yang energy that had been suppressed by him in the dantian immediately became ready to move.

At this time, Xia Rufei's voice came from Xia Rufei's ears: "Master, please use the "Big Dao Jue" mental method to absorb the innate pure yang energy!"

Xia Rufei then woke up and realized that the innate pure yang energy and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth were essentially energy, and the innate pure yang energy contained higher energy purity, so he could fully use the mind method to absorb them.

It can be said that this is a higher level of energy. Not to mention the outside world where spiritual energy is poor, even in the spiritual map space, such purity energy is hard to come by.

This is also an important reason why Xia Qing previously suggested that Xia Ruofei absorb the innate pure yang energy in Tang Haoran's body into suppression.

Xia Rufei did not hesitate anymore and immediately ran the first level of the "Da Dao Jue". The innate pure yang energy in the dantian was extracted out in a slight way and started to operate according to the first meridian operation diagram.

During the flow of meridians, these innate pure yang energy were quickly converted into true qi, and the entire transformation process was completely unstoppable.

Because the purity of the innate pure yang energy is very high, there are almost no impurities.

Xia Ruofei was focusing on the mysterious technique, and a trace of innate pure yang energy was extracted from the dantian and converted into true qi during the meridian operation.

And what is strange is that during the transformation of the innate pure yang energy, Xia Rufei's meridians also absorbed a small part of the innate pure yang energy at the same time, and his meridians became more tough and wider without realizing it.

This is also the wonderful use of the innate pure yang energy.

Therefore, Xia Qing strongly suggested that Xia Rufei temporarily suppress these innate pure yang energy in his body, because cultivation can be gradually improved. Even if there is no such high-level and high-purity energy, it will only take more time. However, the opportunity to use the innate pure yang energy to transform the body is hard to come by.

Xia Rufei did not notice the changes in his body, because he was completely trapped in a state of concentration at this time.

It didn't take long for him to flow his true qi according to the first meridian operation diagram, and he already felt full and bloated in his meridians.

Then, Xia Rufei immediately felt that the true energy in his body seemed to break through a barrier.

Could it be that the first meridian operation diagram has been practiced?

Xia Rufei was also a little unbelievable because according to the description of "The Great Dao Jue", each meridian operation diagram corresponds to one level in the Qi training period, and the ten pictures correspond to the first level of Qi training to the ten levels of Qi training.

There will be a bottleneck at every level, which is not so easy to break through. Sometimes it requires accumulation of time, and some require certain insights.

Although I can't feel the passage of time during my practice, Xia Rufei still has a rough judgment. It has not been long since he sat down to practice now. Most of the innate pure yang energy in the dantian has not been absorbed and digested!

He broke through to the second level of Qi training in such a short time, and the bottleneck only made Xia Rufei feel a little sluggish, and then he was easily broken through as if nothing had happened.

This made Xia Rufei feel unreal.

However, he carefully checked the state in his body and found that although it was unbelievable, it was the case that he had already broken through to the second level of Qi training.

After being touched just now, the innate pure yang energy in the dantian was hard to suppress by relying on the simple trick taught to him by Xia Qing before.

So Xia Rufei didn't have time to think about it anymore, so he directly started to operate the mind method according to the second meridian operation diagram.

After entering the second level of Qi training, the innate pure yang energy consumed faster. They flowed in the meridians like rushing, constantly being transformed into true qi, and at the same time they were warming and transforming Xia Rufei's meridians.

As time passed slowly, Xia Rufei quickly felt the bottleneck of the second level of Qi training. Similarly, this bottleneck was similar to the decoration, and was directly broken through by Xia Rufei like a broken bamboo.

Next is the third level of Qi training. At this time, the innate pure yang energy in the dantian is about half of the original one.

All the mental methods and meridian operation diagrams have been deeply imprinted in Xia Rufei's mind. As long as the level of cultivation is reached, he can easily operate the mental methods according to the diagram, without any need to learn, adapt, and proficiency in this process.

At this time, the innate pure yang energy in Xia Rufei's dantian formed a cyclone. The centrifugal force kept throwing out the innate pure yang energy, and then entered the meridians involved in the third meridian operation diagram. Under the influence of Xia Rufei's "Big Dao Jue" mental method, the meridians were continuously transformed and the true qi was transformed.

After entering the third level of Qi training, Xia Rufei's cultivation speed did not decrease at all.

After a while, he clearly felt the existence of the bottleneck.

Xia Rufei did not deliberately hit the bottleneck, but just used his mental method normally.

According to the description of "The Great Dao Jue", the three bottlenecks of Qi training in the third, sixth and nineth floors are relatively large, which is equivalent to a small qualitative change.

But Xia Rufei still broke through the bottleneck of the third level without realizing it.

In a short period of time, Xia Rufei stepped from a completely zero-foundation newcomer to the threshold of the fourth level of Qi training in one fell swoop.

Xia Rufei was already a little numb about this. At this time, about a quarter of the innate pure yang energy in the dantian remained, and Xia Rufei continued to operate the mind method.

After entering the fourth level of Qi training, Xia Rufei's cultivation speed gradually slowed down.

The cyclone in the dantian is only the size of a green date. This cyclone formed by the innate pure yang energy is rotating, and strands of pure yang energy are scattered and absorbed by Xia Rufei's meridians.

I don’t know how long it took, but Xia Rufei felt that the innate pure yang energy in his body was gone and all absorbed by himself.

At this time, what you can use to operate the mind method will absorb is the spiritual energy in the space.

Xia Rufei stopped at the right time and today's cultivation speed was too fast, so fast that he felt a little scared.

He knew very well that too much was not enough. If the state was not stable enough and the foundation was not solid enough, no matter what he did, he would not be able to do it for a long time. I believe that the same is true for cultivation.

Xia Rufei slowly stopped the movement of his mind, felt the surging true energy in his body, and then opened his eyes and stood up.

Xia Rufei felt that his whole body was full of strength. He even had an illusion that even a truck hit by high speed could block it with one hand.

Xia Qing, who was guarding Xia Rufei in the distance, saw this and hurriedly walked over.

"Master, how do you feel when you first practice?" Xia Qing asked.

Xia Ruofei scratched his head and said, "I can't say it well... I feel that the speed is too fast, right? I'm already on the fourth level of Qi training!"

Xia Qing couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then said relievedly: "Master, the purity of the innate pure yang energy in your body is very high, and it is relatively easy to break through the first few levels of the Qi training period, so he can cultivate to this level in one fell swoop."

Xia Ruofei asked with some concern: "Will that cause unstable state?"

Xia Qing smiled and said, "Master, don't worry at all. You have laid a very good foundation before taking Yu Ling Decoction, Body Tempering Decoction, and Mind Tempering Power. Now it can only be considered accumulating strength! Moreover, the innate pure yang energy will also warm and strengthen the meridians during the transformation process. In the first three levels of the Qi training period, you rely entirely on the innate pure yang energy to break through, so not only will the foundation be unstable, but the idea is that your foundation is much more stable than that of ordinary monks!"

"Then I'll be relieved." Xia Rufei also breathed a sigh of relief.

Xia Qing continued: "But I still recommend that you temporarily control the progress of your cultivation in the short term. After all, you are just getting involved in cultivation. If the cultivation speed is too fast, you may not be able to keep up with your state of mind and may easily appear in the inner demons."

Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Okay, I will stabilize my state on the fourth level of Qi training, and at the same time use this time to learn more about other inherited classics in the herringbone jade talisman."

"Yes, those knowledge is also very useful to practitioners." Xia Qing said, "By the way, master, there is another thing that must be reminded that you have a very high demand for spiritual energy in heaven and earth when you practice. If you practice frequently in the spiritual map realm, it will inevitably cause defects in spiritual energy. Although the spiritual map realm has a certain self-repair function, the spiritual energy will slowly be compensated from the outside world, but if it is too much, it will still hurt the fundamentals of the spiritual map realm."
