Chapter 3 Cangshan Sword Sutra
From the butler, I learned that the eight prefectures in Cang'er continent are Bigu Prefecture and Tuodong Prefecture in the east; Cangnan Prefecture and Erhai Prefecture in the south; Ninglang Prefecture and Sina Prefecture in the west; Meili Prefecture and Zhongdian Prefecture in the north. Each prefecture has two to four counties, and Yunnong City belongs to Cang'an Prefecture in the south.
Each state covers a very large area. Even ordinary people cannot complete the state in their entire lives. Even monks who can fly in the air will need to fly for several months if they want to cross a state.
"Ah, then how can monks who can't fly still go to other states?"
The area of a state is so large, it takes several months to fly, which is as big as the earth before. Ye Daoxin was really shocked.
"If you can't fly, it's basically impossible to cross states. Even monks who can fly rarely act alone, because there are dangers everywhere on the road and their lives will be scattered if you are not careful. For example, Cangnan Prefecture is mainly a continuous mountain range. There are many powerful monsters in the mountains. The monsters have strong realization of the realm. Once other strange monks pass through their domain, they will launch an attack without hesitation."
The butler explained patiently.
"Even our city lord's cultivation level does not dare to cross Cangnan Prefecture. I heard that there are very powerful monsters in the depths of Cangshan Mountain, and there are all those who have lived for thousands of years. They have high magic power and can move mountains and fill seas. There are countless powerful monsters under their command."
"Ah, so awesome!"
"Of course, legend has it that there was a large teleportation array in ancient times that could teleport across states, but later a drastic change occurred in Cangnan Prefecture. The Cangshan Sword Sect was besieged by hundreds of sects from other states. The entire Cangshan County was destroyed, and even Cangnan Prefecture was involved. Blood flowed everywhere, and corpses were everywhere. It was terrible. Many mountains were razed to the ground. All teleportation arrays were destroyed at that time. From then on, no cultivators could teleport from Cangshan County to other states through teleportation arrays. Of course, if the cultivators from other states had to come to Cangshan County, they could only fly slowly."
"Wow, the ancient war is so powerful. If you have the chance, you must see the legendary cross-state teleportation array."
"Yes, I have only heard of it. Not to mention the large cross-state teleportation array, I have never really seen it even a small short-distance teleportation array. The entire Cangshan County has been in a state of blockage for many years and has no connection with other states. The Cangshan Sword Sect has also greatly reduced its strength due to that war and is no longer as glorious as before. I heard that the Cangshan Sword Sect was the first sect in the entire Canger Continent. It has a very strong strength. No force dares to stop its edge, but it has been a long time since that."
Of course, although the Cangshan Sword Sect is no longer as glorious as before, it is still one of the best in the entire Cangshan County and even Cangnan Prefecture. After all, a lean camel is bigger than a horse.
"So, do we ordinary people have the opportunity to learn any cultivation techniques in Cangshan County? Or are there any conditions for becoming a monk? For example, do we need a specific physique?"
Ye Daoxin likes to read fairy tales and fantasy novels, and is extremely interested in practicing. He heard that there are monks everywhere in Cang'er Continent who came to him. He really hopes that he can practice and realize his dream that day.
"The cultivation of Cang'er Continent does not require any specific conditions, and it has nothing to do with physical fitness. As long as you work hard and endure hardships, it is very easy to get started in Cangshan County, unlike other places, because some of the cultivation techniques of Cangshan Sword Sect are open and anyone in Cangshan County can learn them."
"Ah, so good, what kind of cultivation technique is it?"
When Ye Daoxin heard that there was such a good thing, he was a little impatient.
"The most powerful sect in Cangshan County is the Cangshan Sword Sect. The Cangshan Sword Sutra of Cangshan Sword Sect is divided into three parts: upper, middle and lower. The upper part is widely circulated and everyone can practice it. The middle part must become a disciple of the Cangshan Sword Sect to learn it. The lower part is said to be very powerful. After learning it, you can fly to the sky and escape the earth, kill demons and eliminate demons, just like a land god."
The upper part of the Cangshan Sword Sutra is specially spread to the people by the Cangshan Sword Sect. The purpose is to give more people the opportunity to practice martial arts and practice. In this way, many qualified young people can be selected from Cangshan County every year as introductory disciples of the Cangshan Sword Sect. The upper part of the Cangshan Sword Sutra is divided into nine levels, corresponding to the first to nine levels of the Qi-enrolling stage. Only those who practice to the Ninth Level of Qi-enrolling are qualified to participate in the introductory selection of the Cangshan Sword Sect.
The level of cultivation in Cangshan County is not very high. It is divided into four stages: qi absorption, elixir, transformation of emptiness, and escape from robbery. Each stage is divided into nine levels. It is said that those who escape from robbery can be called land gods. They can cross mountains and seas, fly across the sky and escape from the earth, and live for thousands of years. Once the true escape from robbery is complete and experiencing thunder tribulation, they can ascend to the sky and the earth, and let me be free.
Ye Daoxin was very excited after hearing what the butler said. He felt that he was a blessing in disguise and came to the right place. Isn’t this the life he dreamed of?
But the housekeeper attacked him and said: "The highest cultivation level in Cangnan Prefecture is the Huaxu Realm. Even the entire Cang'er Continent is rarely heard of the masters who escape the robbery realm." Take Yunnong City as an example. The highest cultivation level is the city lord, but it is only the middle stage of the Chengdan Realm, and there are three deputy city lords in the early stage of the Chengdan Realm.
Ye Daoxin obtained the upper copy of the Cangshan Sword Sutra from the butler. He was very happy and hurriedly closed the door and studied it. The Cangshan Sword Sutra has both sword techniques and supporting methods of cultivation.
The Cangshan Sword Technique has a water attribute. It can be transformed into a shape with a small achievement in cultivation. The powerful can be transformed into a white tiger or a dragon. When practicing to the highest level, it not only controls the water flow, but also integrates with the power of true water. It transforms into a dragon, rushes to fog, controls thunder and controls lightning, stirs up clouds and rain, sucks wind and drinks waves, has infinite power and vast magical powers, which is almost the same as the real dragon in ancient times.
Although the true body of the Golden Dragon, which has been cultivated to the extreme of Cangshan Sword Sutra, is not as good as ancient magic, it is also considered a first-class magic. When it comes to the great success of cultivation, ordinary practitioners are not rivals. It is just that practicing is very difficult. If you don’t have a innocent heart, your heart will be unhindered and you will have no hindrance all the way, without any timidity, you will often stagnate and practice hard for decades without any progress.
Ye Daoxin breathes according to the Cangshan Sword Meridian. The rhythm of this breathing method is strange, sometimes weak, sometimes heavy, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, full of rhythm. It is very complicated. It transforms the spiritual energy sucked in from the nose into the energy in the meridians in the body, and the energy of the meridians slowly returns to the dantian.
Although Ye Daoxin, as a modern person, has no IQ and is very smart, he still doesn't adapt to it at the beginning. He inhale and exhale several times, not to mention running the big circumference, even the small circumference can't go for a turn, and he will be interrupted. Many times, he will easily be choked, just like choking water and coughing violently.
Ye Daoxin struggled all night, running around for more than 900 times, but he failed once. He was so tired that he couldn't find any problem. Although Ye Daoxin felt tough and persistent in doing things, he began to wonder if the method was wrong, or that his qualifications were too poor and he was not suitable for cultivation.
Early in the morning, Ye Daoxin came to the martial arts training ground and saw that Ye Rong was already practicing. Ye Rong was already in the third level of energy absorption. He was facing the morning sun, sometimes light and sometimes heavy, sometimes slow and sometimes fast. The morning glow was brilliant, with vigorous energy, sitting cross-legged on a large stone, with a very rhythmic rhythm, sometimes inhaling, sometimes exhaling, and inhaling in an orderly manner. There was a ball of fragrant white mist between his mouth and nose. As he breathed, the white mist went in and out between his mouth and nose, mixing with the morning glow, just like collecting the essence of the sun and the moon, with a very masterful temperament.
It seemed like someone was coming. Ye Rong opened his eyes, stopped practicing, and greeted Ye Daoxin, "Daoxin, so early, come here to practice together."
"Oh, why do you have dark circles, so haggard, and didn't sleep well last night." Before he could walk in front of him, Ye Rong discovered that Ye Daoxin was in poor condition.
"Oh, don't mention it. I practiced all night last night, more than 900 times, and I didn't succeed once."
"Haha, it's a little worse than me. I succeeded eight hundred times at that time." After hearing Ye Daoxin's statement, Ye Rong suddenly opened his mouth and laughed non-stop.
"What are you laughing at?" Ye Daoxin glared at him. It was only eight hundred times before he succeeded. He laughed at him with fifty steps.
"Haha, Daoxin, don't listen to his bragging. He tried it for a thousand,600 times before he succeeded." At this time, the housekeeper had arrived at the martial arts training ground at some point.
"I just said, "A person who is as wise and powerful as me, loved by everyone, and flowers bloom when they bloom. How can a person who has both appearance and wisdom lose to you?" After hearing the butler's words, Ye Daoxin felt relieved and regained her confidence.
Under the careful guidance of the butler and Ye Rong, Ye Daoxin tried more than a hundred times, and finally succeeded for the first time. It can be seen that when Ye Daoxin was practicing the Cangshan Sword Sutra, his breathing was orderly, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, sometimes light and sometimes heavy, full of rhythm, with a flowing brilliance, his whole body was like a Canglong, and his temperament was extraordinary.
"Ao!"
After running a large circle, Ye Daoxin let out a low roar, and a white air spurted out from his mouth and nose, exploding in the air, like a muffled thunder falling from the sky, deafening and shocking, and like a flying dragon in the sky, flying in the clouds and fog, a low roar resounded through the sky, with extraordinary momentum. This vision scared Ye Rong and the butler, as if Ye Rong had the first time running a large circle of vision was far less scary than Ye Daoxin.
Ye Daoxin seemed to have not noticed the surprise of Ye Rong and the housekeeper. He had been completely immersed in the cultivation. He ran thirty cycles in a row. He knew that his body had reached the limit he could bear. If he ran the next cycle of the cycle, his meridians would probably break. The bursting of the meridians was not a joke. The pain was worse than death. No one was willing to try it. Moreover, once the meridians were damaged, it was not so easy to recover as before. He had to take heavenly treasures and cultivate for a long time to recover.
Ye Daoxin had been running for thirty great circumferences, and it was almost afternoon. The Cangshan Sword Sutra had already entered the first floor, and had entered the early stage of the second floor. If it weren't for seeing it with your own eyes, Ye Rong wouldn't believe it. Ye Daoxin could practice the first floor of the Cangshan Sword Sutra in one day, and also entered the second floor, which would not make people live. You know, Ye Rong had practiced for a full month before entering the second floor.
"Oh! It's a monster!"
