Chapter 240 The road to enlightenment opens
Mingyue of the Great Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/ The latest work of Xiangnan Xiaoxiaosheng! In the past few months, the overall strength of the Shangqing Temple in Laoshan has been improved like a leap. First of all, the main skills are no longer missing, so that they no longer need to explore blindly. Secondly, the Eight Immortals and Qiu Ming have given guidance to those disciples so that those disciples can make progress faster.
However, Ming Tongzi also gave instructions to those disciples that he should not ask questions directly whenever he had any questions, and he had to think about it first. Qiu Ming found that the family-born martial arts he passed down were not taken seriously.
All the disciples mainly practiced the "Shangqing Dadong True Sutra", believing that this sutra is directed to the great way, and they are also secondary to the practice of body refining.
In their opinion, they would never rush to the opponent with a knife like Qiu Ming. They could fly swords to kill the enemy, use talisman techniques, or use other spells. How great is this.
Qiu Ming didn't say much, these disciples didn't know how powerful they became saints in their physical bodies. And indeed, they didn't know whether their family skills could truly become saints in their physical bodies. If there were disciples who majored in this aspect, they might eventually regret it.
One day, Qiu Ming had a whim and announced his retreat directly. He felt that his "Shangqing Da Cave True Sutra" was about to be completed, and after that, he could truly learn various secret techniques.
Half a month later, Qiu Ming came out of seclusion.
"Fellow Daoist Xuanguang, are you making a breakthrough?" Lu Dongbin looked at Qiu Ming. He felt that Qiu Ming's breath seemed to have changed a little, and even his eyes became more confident.
"Yeah, it's a breakthrough." Qiu Ming nodded with a smile.
"Congratulations" Lu Dongbin and others were all happy for Qiu Ming.
After he became a little accomplished, he finally understood why the "Shangqing Da Cave True Sutra" claimed that he could become an immortal without the assistance of elixirs. Because this is not a method of cultivating inner elixirs, but a method of cultivating the soul.
According to the scriptures, after the small achievement, wisdom will be greatly opened, the mind will be connected to the nine heavens, the essence will be condensed, the energy will be transformed into spirit, and the fractal will be changed, which is mysterious and unpredictable.
He now has a feeling that his mind is clearer than before, and some things he couldn't understand before, but now he suddenly understands them.
A small success means that the road to enlightenment has been opened. Qiu Ming only needs to practice step by step and accumulate spiritual power to continuously increase his cultivation and his soul.
After accumulating to a certain level, breaking through the limit can lead to the immortal throne. Of course, this breakthrough of the limit is not that easy.
But since Master, Senior Brother, and even Xiao Fengzhen can do it, Qiu Ming firmly believes that he can do it.
"I'll say hello to everyone this time when I come out of seclusion. I will continue to seclusion tomorrow, sort out what I have learned in the past, and find out my own path."
The "Shangqing Da Cave Sutra" roughly divides practice into several stages. For example, Qiu Ming's initial general chapter and chanting the jade ritual, which is to refine essence into qi. Later, he continued to practice, which was to refine qi into gods.
Now that the entire scripture has been completed, he has also entered the state of practicing the spirit and returning to the emptiness. In the world of Taoist priests in Laoshan, practicing the spirit and returning to the emptiness is also considered by many people to be a land god.
After truly exploring one's own path, one will enter the realm of refining and combining the Tao. Only by breaking through this limitation can one be considered to be truly attaining the Tao and becoming an immortal!
After Qiu Ming entered this realm, he could fly in the air without relying on auspicious clouds. His speed was slower and he also consumed spiritual power. His strength was greatly improved, and at least he would not be exhausted so easily.
Another biggest advantage is that when his body dies, if his soul is not destroyed, he can take over his body and be reborn, just like Tieguai Li.
Ming Tongzi was also very happy to learn that Qiu Ming had made a breakthrough. Of course, he hoped that Qiu Ming would be as strong as possible, so that Laoshan Shangqing Temple would have a powerful ancestor as its backer.
There is another most powerful part of the "Shangqing Dadong True Sutra", that is, the thirty-nine chapters of the scriptures, which can be transformed into thirty-nine secret techniques, and the entire scripture is a method of combining the practice of many techniques.
For example, the eldest brother Sun Baoguang is following the way of flying swords, so the thirty-nine chapters of the scriptures can be condensed into thirty-nine sword techniques. Qiu Ming is good at the way of talismans. Based on the deduction of the thirty-nine chapters of the scriptures, he can draw thirty-nine spiritual talismans with this.
Since it is a combination of skills, some people can experience other secret techniques in it, and even practice different types of secret techniques.
This is also why everyone practiced the "Shangqing Dadong Jing" in the world of Taoist priests in Laoshan, but everyone is good at different things. It is also why Master Liu Ruozhuo said that they could truly understand the profound meaning of the scriptures after they achieved small success.
The more profound his cultivation is, the more Qiu Ming can understand the essence of the "Shangqing Dadong True Sutra". No wonder Master once told him that this is an immortal method passed down from the ancestor of Shangqing, and it is really mysterious and extraordinary.
In the quiet room, Qiu Ming's eyes were closed, but one finger was drawing something in the void. If he was drawn on the talisman paper according to this pattern, a talisman would be formed.
This talisman is much more advanced than the wall-walking talisman that Qiu Ming has learned. You can even deduce a variety of talisman drawing methods of the same category through a talisman.
He also understood why there are so many talismans in Zhengyi Sect, and the drawing methods and effects of many talismans may be like this.
A few more months passed, the Tieguai Li Dan Furnace turned off, and the last furnace of elixir was also trained. After receiving the elixir into a small gourd, Tieguai Li stretched.
He continuously refined four furnaces of elixirs, and the four furnaces were all different. He was also very tired, not only physically but also mentally.
Fortunately, they all succeeded, otherwise the materials he prepared were not enough. The Eight Immortals received a great favor from fellow Daoist Xuanguang this time, so they should have given a sincere thank-you gift.
When he came out of the quiet room, he found that fellow Daoist Xuanguang did not appear. He was very informed when he left the seclusion. Didn’t fellow Daoist Xuanguang know? Or was he not eager to get the pills he refined?
"Fellow Daoist Xuanguang is in seclusion. He made a breakthrough some time ago. Now he should be consolidating and thinking about the next path." Lu Dongbin explained, "You are just taking a few days off. I believe that Fellow Daoist Xuanguang is about to come out of seclusion."
Tieguai Li was a little surprised. Fellow Daoist Xuanguang made another breakthrough? He thought Qiu Ming had made a breakthrough in his body, so he couldn't help but be amazed and envious at the same time.
It would be better if his physical body could be so strong, then his cultivation would be able to go further. Unfortunately, he took a lot of elixirs to make his soul more compatible with his physical body, but he could never be perfect.
"Okay, I'll go to seclusion and rest for a few days. If fellow Daoist Xuanguang comes out of seclusion first, you can give it to him first."
"Okay, when you both come out of seclusion, we should leave after having a good drink. After all, we still have our own business." Lu Dongbin nodded. They also have important tasks for their reincarnation in the lower world.
Three days later, Qiu Ming came out of seclusion.
