Chapter 44: The Difficulty of Cultivation
"You don't understand after saying that... Forget it, let's tell you, the so-called "comprehensive Dharma nature", in short, is the process of giving birth to the first ray of magic power in the body through the stimulation of Yang Gang Qi and the first level of Pure Yang Sword Art. If you can't get through, you will have no chance to cultivate immortals in this life." Bai Xiaotian said this when he saw Chen Luo looking so arrogant.
"If I understand correctly, this is similar to a key point. Only by understanding this key can one continue to cultivate immortality. Could it be a sudden feeling?" Chen Luo nodded thoughtfully and asked again.
"Your statement is not wrong, but it is not entirely true. The nature of the Dharma cannot be regarded as an enlightenment and feeling, but a change of the body from the inside out, and it needs to be achieved with some external force." Bai Xiaotian explained.
"What external force?" Chen Luo asked.
"I said you don't really want to practice the Pure Yang Sword Skill, right? To be honest, instead of having time to think randomly, you might as well practice Xiaohua Yang Gong and find a way to get more pills from Master Luo..." Bai Xiaotian rolled his eyes and said.
"How can I only say half of it?" Chen Luo also glared back.
"I really can't do anything to you. I can't say too much about what external forces are, but they are nothing more than magic medicines. These things are hard to come by. And even if there is external force assistance, those who can succeed in the end will not be able to succeed." Bai Xiaotian sighed and said.
"Success rate is so low?" Chen Luo couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"So, in the temple, I have recruited so many disciples in recent years, and I have only only three inner disciples so far. It is conceivable that it is difficult to understand the nature of Dharma." Bai Xiaotian said.
"Can you say more about the Pure Yang Sword Art? If it involves taboos in the sect rules, you don't have to force it."
"Haha, as long as the specific content of the exercises is not involved, it's okay to talk to you. In fact, there is nothing to hide from these things. The outer disciples know a little, but it's easy to generalize or exaggerate them. In general, there are twelve levels of Pure Yang Sword Art, among which the most difficult ones are the first and last two levels. The first level is the nature of the exercises, and the last two levels are the difficulty lies in the art of the exercises themselves. If you pass the level of the nature of the exercises, the last nine levels, even if your qualifications are not good enough and your practice is slow, it will be possible to cultivate after decades." Bai Xiaotian said.
"It will take decades. When you achieve enlightenment, will your lifespan be over?" Chen Luo grinned.
"I forgot to say just now that as long as you can achieve the Dharma nature and enter the Qi Refining Period, your life span can increase by about 60 years. It is roughly enough to practice these levels of martial arts." Bai Xiaotian slapped his forehead and said.
"If you reach the ninth level, how much life can you increase?" Chen Luo cared about this matter the most.
"As long as you fail to break through the Qi Refining Period, the life span of sixty years will not change much. But if you practice the tenth level of the Pure Yang Sword Technique, you can try to break through the Qi Refining Period and enter the Qi Refining Period. After entering the Qi Refining Period, the life span can increase by at least two hundred years." Bai Xiaotian smiled and explained.
"Two hundred years..." Chen Luo couldn't help but murmur.
"You have to live longer now, and then think about things that last for two hundred years. Young people should not be too ambitious. Hahaha." Bai Xiaotian suddenly remembered something after laughing, and asked again after a different question: "Are you still going to trick on the talisman?"
"I'm still studying, but I don't have any eyes yet." Chen Luo shook his head and said.
After Yu Yan's guidance in his dream, his understanding of the talisman path has indeed deepened a lot, but before he had time to practice and verify it, there was no way to make much progress.
"I knew you wouldn't give up easily. I can't use these things anymore. You can keep them first." Bai Xiaotian looked as proud as expected, and raised his hand and threw a small cloth bag that closed his mouth.
Chen Luo reached out to take it, and he was confused and found that he was quite serious about it.
He opened the cloth bag in confusion, but found that there were seven or eight Yuan stones inside, and he was immediately delighted.
"Brother Bai, Brother Bai, you are just my timely rain. I'm worried about not having this treasure. This time I can't let me make a fortune by myself. Tell me, how much does it cost?" Chen Luo asked with a happy face.
"Brothers talk about money, which will hurt feelings. In two days, I'll invite me to a restaurant in the town to have a good meal. Everything else is easy to say. Just take enough wine. The wineworms in my stomach have been calling for a few days." Bai Xiaotian slapped him on the shoulder and said with a smile.
"Of course this is fine, but no matter how you look at it, it seems that everything you do is losing money?" Chen Luo thought for a while and said.
"Okay, if you feel uneasy, give me a hundred,200 taels of gold, I won't be too concerned about the money bag." Bai Xiaotian changed his smile and rubbed his hands and said.
"The wine pipe is enough." Chen Luogu nodded and walked forward with his hands behind his back.
Bai Xiaotian laughed and followed.
...
The summer night is quiet, under the bright moon, insects are chirping like bells, crisp and pleasant.
A lonely figure walked along the mountain road to the top of the mountain. After passing the Jade Emperor Hall, he soon came to an independent courtyard.
The gate of the outer courtyard was not closed, and the candlelight in the two-story building inside was revealed.
"Master Luo, my disciple Chen Luo asked for his experience." Chen Luo stopped in the light and shadow at the door, saluted respectfully and shouted.
"Come in and talk..." After a moment of silence, a voice came.
Chen Luo heard the sound and hurriedly walked into the inner courtyard. Before he could get close to the inner door, he heard a sound, and the two black doors opened inwards.
Luo Daoren, dressed in Taoist robe, was sitting on the chair of the Grand Master in the hall, holding a pot of tea that had just been brewed for a while, and strands of white steam were steaming with the fragrance of tea.
"I heard from Senior Brother Bai that the master has returned to the mountain, so I came to pay my respects." Chen Luo lowered his eyebrows and looked at Dao Ren Luo with a frosty face, and saluted respectfully.
After breaking up with Bai Xiaotian, he thought for a long time and finally decided to come and pay homage to this master who had just returned from the mountain.
Luo Daoren held the teacup in his hand and glanced at the registered disciple, his brows frowned slightly.
"It seems that your master is right. You have really practiced Xiaohuayang qigong. The spirit that is already ten of them has become more depressed. Your life is not long before." Dao Ren Luo put down the teacup and said bluntly without hesitation.
When Chen Luo heard this, his heart suddenly sank, and finally the little bit of luck was completely wiped out.
"I would like to ask Master Luo to save me and teach me the method of prolonging my life." Chen Luo's body sank again and bowed to the end.
Seeing him like this, Luo Daoren didn't have much change in his expression on his maroon face. He just lifted up the teapot next to him, added tea to the tea cup, and sent it to his mouth and gently blew the tea leaves floating on it.
Chen Luo stood up slightly, walked forward, took out a heavy purple-red wooden box from his arms, put his hands on the coffee table next to Master Luo, and then said respectfully:
Chapter completed!
