Chapter 15 Entering the Realm of Silence

At midnight, under the dazzling starlight of Baiyun Temple, the big locust tree emits a crimson halo, and its long branches and leaves sway, stretching towards the window of the wooden house, looking very much like a river of light flowing slowly into the window.

At this time, Li Yunsheng was sitting upright on the head of the bed motionless. His whole body was surrounded by a faint purple aura, and the cyclone gathered towards his head.

After this process lasted for half an hour, when the energy around him was at its peak, Li Yunsheng, who had originally breathed at a special rhythm, suddenly stopped breathing. I don’t know if it was a coincidence or something, but it seemed like he was cooperating with him. The swaying branches outside the window, the roaring insects and even the sound of wind stopped, and everything in the world seemed to have quieted down.

However, this static did not last long, and in just a few breaths, the strange silence ended.

"Is this the 'entering silence' state mentioned in the Daozang General Chapter?" Li Yunsheng picked up the towel next to him and wiped his face, then stuck his head in confusion and thought, "But why is it so difficult to say it? Yu Xuzi's "Speaking the Mysterious and Subtle Sutra" clearly stated the key points of entering the state of silence. Now it seems that in the books on the first floor, senior Yu Xuzi is still talking more seriously."

He stretched and continued to mutter to himself:

"After entering the silence, the speed of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is indeed much faster, but I still can't fill my dantian. It seems that I can only wait until I enter the silence state and enter the second silence, and then find the first and second-grade Qi Refining Skills to try again."

Over the past few days, he has tried many times. No matter how much spiritual energy he has absorbed into his body, even if he enters a state of silence, he cannot store a trace of energy into his dantian, let alone build a elixir of dantian to reach the stage of rebirth.

He had not moved the small bottle of white brewing yet. That was his last method. He wanted to do what he could do first and then break through the period of rebirth in one fell swoop. Otherwise, he would have wasted this small bottle of white brewing again.

"In Yu Xuzi's "Shuo Xuan Miraculous Sutra", it is said that the most perfect state of a cultivator in the Qi training stage is to obtain a middle-grade or above Qi training method, and the other is to enter the Two Silent Realm when breathing."

When entering the state of silence, there are first silence, two silence, three silence, four silence, first silence and two silence are distinguished by time. The duration of silence for one hour can be called two silence. The distinction between three silence and four silence Li Yunsheng has read currently, but he just briefly said: "Those who enter the three silences can listen to the sounds of all things, and those who enter the four silences can distinguish the laws of heaven and earth."

So Li Yunsheng wanted to wait until he could enter the state of silence before going to Huanghe Tower to ask for a medium-grade Qi training method and try it out.

The middle-grade Qi training method is located on the second floor of Huanghe Tower.

There are no more idle books on the second floor of Huanghe Tower. They are all the "Three Holes and Four Auxiliary" mental methods, mantras, alchemy techniques, medicine techniques, and talisman records collected by Qiushuimen for thousands of years. Among them, three hundred middle-grade mental methods, one hundred mantras, two hundred elixir techniques, three hundred medicine techniques, and forty-seven talisman records.

These are what Li Yunsheng saw in the Huanghe Lou Collection Book Catalog. Compared with the complexity of books on the first floor, the collection category on the second floor is particularly clear. You can even see the names of the compilers of each book and the time of the book being compiled from the Dao Canu Collection Catalog.

Li Yunsheng actually had plans to choose which Qi Practice Skill. From the first to fourth floors of the catalog, there was a person's name among the editors of the mental method category that had always been there - yes, it was the Yuxu real person that Li Yunsheng admired very much.

On the second floor, there is a Qi Refining Skill called "The Dragon Painting" compiled by him. What surprised me was this "The Dragon Painting Skill".

》The first and the next two chapters were actually collected on the second and third floors of Huanghe Tower, which means that the first chapter is a middle-grade Qi training method, while the next chapter is a top-grade Qi training method.

Li Yunsheng's heart has been "ittingled" with the "Dragon Painting" for a long time, especially after reading the "Speaking the Mysterious and Subtle Sutra" on the first floor, compared to the need for "The Painting Dragon Painting" to practice, Li Yunsheng actually simply wanted to read what Yuxu said in "The Painting Dragon Painting". This is an indescribable desire for knowledge and curiosity, just like Li Yunsheng's cultivation world, he wanted to solve his doubts before seeking the Tao.

This problem comes

Li Yunsheng was still a little sure of entering the Second Silent Realm. This was at most a matter of time for him, and he currently has time in Baiyun Temple.

However, the medium-grade Qi training method is a bit of a headache, because you need 100 merit coins to go upstairs on the second floor of Huanghe Tower. What's even more annoying is that all the books on the second floor are counted according to the number of times - "One view, two hundred", that is, you read 200 merit coins at one time! That is, you go upstairs to read the catalog and choose the book you want to read, and then let the manager on the second floor get the book and read 200 merit coins at one time.

At first, Li Yunsheng didn’t understand what it was called “one view”, because you can read a word, a page, or a book.

After asking Li Lan, he realized that the collection of books on the second floor was not books at all, but jade slips! And those magic tricks and elixir recipes were sealed inside with ancient secret techniques. After you go upstairs to pay the money, the manager will give you a jade ring. If you use the jade ring to tap on the jade slip three times, the collection of books in the jade slip will enter your brain like a nightmare. After a quarter of an hour, the magic power of the ring fails, and the magic tricks in your mind will disappear.

"It can be understood but not expressed in words." It is said that this is the secret method that imposes a mantra on the jade slip.

It is also because of this that the Taoist sect techniques above the middle grade are rarely out of the way except for some aristocratic families and major sects. Even if they are spread, they are in the form of jade slips. I have never seen a middle grade technique in the form of books.

So this made Li Yunsheng very troubled. The only way for Baiyun Temple disciples to obtain merit cards is the two pounds and eight ounces of immortal grain per month. Even if Li Yunsheng takes all the two pounds and eight ounces of immortal grain, it will only be 228 merit cards.

In other words, Li Yunsheng was lucky enough to save the immortal food for a month, but it was only enough to go upstairs to "view". The complexity of the medium-grade exercises is incomparable to the low-grade exercises. It is said that the text volume of a martial art is the text volume of the entire first-floor book. Li Yunsheng is very confident in his memory, but he really has no confidence in facing such a complex text volume for a quarter of an hour.

"I can only try it."

He was planning the merit cards on his body. If he had all exchanged for merit cards a few days ago, plus the remaining 180 yuan last month, a total of 380 yuan. He could go to the second floor to "Two Views".

But the frost soon fell, and the three acres of fairy fields at the foot of his mountain were about to be sown, so he had to keep at least one pound of fairy grain for seeds.

"It seems...it's even poorer than when I was at home."
