Asking about longevity

Mo Hua read the description of the technique again. There were only a few sentences on it, saying that this technique was not limited to spiritual root levels and attributes. The amount of spiritual power it could produce was low. The bottleneck was spiritual consciousness. It was not suitable for non-formation masters to practice. ♦✎

Although it didn't specify which spiritual objects were needed, there was something strange about these descriptions.

How come there are techniques that are not limited to spiritual roots?

It is understandable that the refined spiritual power is low. After all, it is not limited to spiritual roots, which means that low-level ones can also be cultivated, and the spiritual power produced will naturally not be deep.

But what does it mean that the bottleneck is in spiritual consciousness? And why is it not suitable for non-formation masters to practice?

…

Mo Hua frowned and thought. After an unknown amount of time, Mr. Zhuang opened his eyes and said, "Have you chosen?"

Only then did Mo Hua come back to his senses, "Disciple has made his choice, I just don't know which one is more suitable."

"Bring it to me and see."

Mo Hua respectfully handed the selected exercises to Mr. Zhuang.

Mr. Zhuang looked at them one by one. His expression was calm, but he was a little unhappy in his heart.

The techniques chosen by Mo Hua were all chosen by the puppet master. Among the ones he chose, Mo Hua did not choose any of them. This made Mr. Zhuang feel very embarrassed.

It wasn't until he turned to the last jade slip that Mr. Zhuang's eyes lit up.

On the ancient pale jade slip, there are three words "Tian Yan Jue" engraved on it.

This is one of the "distinctive" exercises chosen by Mr. Zhuang. ≋≋x≋.≋c≋o≋m≋

Mr. Zhuang was very satisfied and felt that Mo Hua had good eyesight and could be taught.

Seeing that Mr. Zhuang's eyes were on "Tian Yan Jue", Mo Hua asked the question he was most concerned about:

"Sir, this "Tian Yan Jue" cultivation key does not mention the required spiritual objects. Does it not require any heavenly materials and earthly treasures to practice?"

"Not bad." Mr. Zhuang nodded.

Mo Hua was overjoyed, but calmed down in the blink of an eye, "One drink and one peck in Taoist cultivation. You get what you pay for. You can practice without the need for heaven and earth. Does this mean that there will be other troubles in practicing this technique?" "

Mr. Zhuang's eyes showed approval, and then he said slowly:

"This is an ancient skill."

"Ancient Kung Fu?" Mo Hua wondered, "Are there any differences between the ancient Kung Fu?"

"There are differences, but there is no difference. The exercises practiced by the ancients are exercises, and the exercises practiced by people today are also exercises. They are all methods of seeking immortality and seeking the Tao. They all have their own advantages and disadvantages and cannot be generalized..."

"Some ancient exercises have been improved by generations of monks, and have gradually become stable and have fewer bottlenecks. When practiced, they can get twice the result with half the effort, and they have naturally become the main exercises in the monastic world today; some ancient exercises are remote and weird, difficult to practice, and have great effects after they are completed. It's worthless and gradually abandoned..."

"Some techniques are cruel and evil, and can easily cause people to lose their minds and turn into demon cultivators, so they will be banned by the Taoist court; there are also some techniques that can reverse the fate of heaven and change fate. The conditions for practice are extremely harsh, and they are competed by major monks or damaged. , or lost, and in the end it can only remain in the legends passed down orally by the monks..."

"Are all the ancient skills not limited to spiritual roots?" Mo Hua asked.

"That's not necessarily the case. Most techniques limit the attributes of the spiritual root. A few techniques do not limit the level of the spiritual root. They can be practiced from upper to upper grades and from lower to lower grades, but they are only a minority."

"The cultivation of spiritual roots and Kung Fu methods was promoted by the big families and sects after the unification of the Taoist court and implemented in the nine states of the cultivation world. On the one hand, it is to standardize the many and complex Kung Fu methods in the cultivation world and facilitate the practice of monks. On the other hand, it is on the one hand……"

In fact, it is for the monopoly of the inheritance of martial arts...

Mr. Zhuang's eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn't say any more. He just said, "You will understand in the future."

"Oh," Mo Hua nodded as if he understood, and then asked: "Sir, what kind of ancient skill is this "Tian Yan Jue"?"

new

"It should fall into the category of remote and weird."

Mr. Zhuang thought for a moment and then said: "Some people have learned this technique before. It is easy to learn. You only need to refine the spirit stone, but the bottleneck when breaking through is very strange. The bottlenecks of other techniques are, Generally, in the meridians or the sea of ​​qi, one needs to refine the spiritual objects of heaven and earth to break through. The bottleneck of this technique is in the sea of ​​consciousness. The sea of ​​consciousness is illusory and unpredictable, and there are very few auxiliary spiritual objects, so it can Whether there will be a breakthrough is still unknown.”

"No matter how rare a spiritual object is, there is always a way to obtain it. It's just a matter of the price. But when it comes to the problem of the sea of ​​consciousness, it's difficult. Sometimes it's even impossible to start. In addition, the spiritual power cultivated by this technique is low. There are no other effects, so gradually no one practices it."

Mo Hua listened silently, and then asked the last question:

"Then what does it mean when it says on the technique that 'non-formation masters should not practice'? Do you have to be an formation master to practice this technique?"

"No," Mr. Zhuang shook his head and said: "It's not that you can practice this technique only by becoming an array master, but among all the cultivation professions, only the array master consumes the most spiritual consciousness, and is higher than other monks in the use and understanding of the sea of ​​consciousness. The bottleneck of "Tian Yan Jue" lies in spiritual consciousness, so it is naturally most suitable for formation masters to practice. In other words, if formation masters do not practice, then other types of monks will not be able to practice."

"I see……"

Mo Hua thought about it in his mind and then made up his mind.

Seeing this, Mr. Zhuang asked: "Have you decided which method to practice?"

"I've thought about it," Mo Hua nodded, "Sir, I want to practice the "Tian Yan Jue"."

Mr. Zhuang felt a little relieved. He felt that Mo Hua, a kid like him, was really close to him. He was not like the old man who had such vulgar taste in choosing martial arts.

Mr. Zhuang wanted to hand the jade slip of "Tian Yan Jue" to Mo Hua, but suddenly hesitated a little. After a moment, he sighed and asked in a solemn tone:

"Mo Hua, have you really thought about it?"

Mo Hua looked at Mr. Zhuang with some confusion.

"This skill is simple to practice, but there are too many variables when it comes to breakthroughs, and the spiritual power is not strong. Whether it is training or fighting, it is always inferior to others."

Although he was a little reluctant, Mr. Zhuang still pointed to the exercises under the "leftover" ink painting and said:

"Although these techniques are not unique, they are stable and practical, and they can produce a lot of spiritual power. Some spiritual objects, even if they are a bit troublesome, are not expensive, and there are always ways to get them."

Mo Hua said firmly: "Disciple, I have thought about it. Mo Hua's spiritual roots are mediocre and it is not easy to compare with others. I only hope to make some progress in the formation and live up to the teacher's teachings. Since I want to become an formation master, my spiritual consciousness will naturally The most important thing is that the amount of spiritual power is nothing."

"The bottleneck of the formation master is the spiritual consciousness, and the bottleneck of "Tian Yan Jue" is also the spiritual consciousness. For the disciples, it is actually the same. As long as they concentrate on studying the formation and enhancing the spiritual consciousness. Cultivation is not a smooth road to achieve success. It’s up to God to do your best, but it’s up to people to do their best.”

Mr. Zhuang was slightly startled, nodded and said, "You are right. It is rare that you have such a tenacious Taoist heart at such a young age."

Mo Hua couldn't bear such praise, and said with some embarrassment: "Actually, my disciple is not tough in heart..."

Mr. Zhuang was slightly stunned.

"Mainly because the disciples can't afford other techniques. This technique doesn't require spiritual objects, so I can only choose it..."

Mr. Zhuang: "..."

Ink painting is also very helpless.

There are always solutions to spiritual problems, but those "some spiritual objects" are often worth tens of thousands of spiritual stones, and Mo Hua, who is a casual cultivator, really has no solution.

Once a person is poor, his Taoist heart will naturally become tenacious, even if he is not tenacious.
