Cultivation: When you do things to the extreme

Apart from this sapphire token, there were also some items that the man in white could not identify. They had unknown functions and were classified as special items by Xu Yang.

It's of no use at the moment, I'll save it for later.

Strange objects are useless, but what about magic weapons?

A little bit, but not much.

The top-grade magic weapon, the Geng Gold Sword, has been scrapped, while the middle-grade magic weapon, the sapphire sword, has mediocre power. Not to mention the other low-grade magic weapons, they are all garbage and cannot be used, and they cannot be sold casually because they are stolen goods.

Although these people are casual cultivators, casual cultivators also have roots and backgrounds. Especially Zhang Guanghua, a big shrimp in the late stage of Qi training, also has many connections in the cultivation world. If he is accused of stealing stolen goods because of this, , that would be a bit outweighed by the gain.

Although they adhere to the law of the jungle and the law of the jungle, and even encourage the pursuit of those who are destined to be immortals, they still have clear orders to crack down on Jie cultivators, major sects, and cities. Once wanted, everyone will shout and kill.

This is also understandable. Although cultivators prey on the weak, sects, markets, families and other forces also need order so that they can operate transactions and keep things flowing smoothly.

Robbery and plunder are tantamount to destroying the order of these powerful forces, destroying their jobs, and cutting off their leeks. Naturally, this cannot be tolerated.

Therefore, if you don't have any special skills, it's better not to engage in robbery. Being wanted by major forces is no joke.

Although the magic weapon is not of much use, it is not without gain.

All kinds of spiritual stones, talismans, elixirs and other consumables are worth hundreds of low-grade spiritual stones. If you add five storage bags, it can easily reach thousands.

Thousands of spirit stones are almost enough to buy half a Foundation Establishment Pill.

Sure enough, with the golden belt of murder and arson, working as a robbery cultivator means you can make money quickly.

"He will die quickly."

Xu Yang shook his head, putting this unattractive idea behind him, and looked at the final loot.

Kung Fu!

For Xu Yang, this is the most valuable trophy, which can help him intuitively understand the world of cultivation and cultivators, and can also help himself and improve his strength.

knowledge is power!

Xu Yang took a jade slip and activated his will to "read" it.

Xiuzhen's "qi training" system has many similarities with the two major systems of "martial arts training" and "body training" he developed himself, but they are not the same.

Cultivation and qi training involve practicing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. You must have a special qualification called "spiritual root" to enter the door of cultivation.

The first state of cultivation is the state of Qi training.

There are twelve levels of Qi training, three levels and one level, which can be divided into four realms: front, middle, back and Dzogchen.

Practice "internal breath" in the early stage.

In the mid-term, you will develop "Zhen Qi."

Later, you will develop "mana."

Dzogchen practice "Great Perfection."

Inner breath, true energy, and mana are all easy to understand, and correspond to the internal force, true energy, and Gang Yuan of the martial arts system.

But what does Dzogchen mean?

In fact, it is easy to understand, it is the limit of concentration, the master state of the spiritual realm.

After completing the Qi practice, the physical body, mind, and magical power must all reach perfection, so that you can reach the realm of foundation building.

Therefore, the levels of the cultivation system and the martial arts system correspond to each other.

The internal strength of martial arts is equal to the early stage of Qi training.

The true Qi of martial arts is equal to the middle stage of Qi training.

The true strength of martial arts is equal to the later stage of Qi training.

Concentration in martial arts is equal to perfect Qi training.

Holding elixirs in martial arts is equivalent to building the foundation of cultivation.

According to this correspondence, Xu Yang should now be a cultivator who has completed his Qi training.

But the principle is this, but in practice it cannot be calculated like this.

From the early stage of Qi training, starting from the realm of inner breath, cultivators absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to practice, and there are generally methods for cultivating the soul in the exercises.

Therefore, whether a cultivator's soul, body, or inner mana is higher than that of a warrior of the same realm.

According to the man in white, a cultivator in the early stage of Qi training can easily cross the realm and pin down a Qi warrior in the middle stage of Qi training to the ground and beat him.

If you have powerful magic weapons or powerful spells, you can even cross two realms and challenge Zhen Gang warriors who are at a later stage of Qi training.

This shows the strength of cultivators.

According to this logic, it is very likely that a warrior who is concentrating on the four realms cannot defeat a cultivator in the late stage of Qi training.

But this is only limited to ordinary warriors.

Xu Yang is not in this category.

The martial arts are mysterious, even if there is no aura of heaven and earth, the martial arts you have developed are not weaker than those of practitioners in the same realm, and the fighting skills are not necessarily weaker than the fighting skills.

In addition, he is the ancestor of the martial arts, blessed with characteristics such as the unity of heaven and man, martial arts, and spiritual connection. He also practices both internally and externally. He practices both internally in martial arts and externally in physical training. With the combination of various advantages, he does not exceed the rank. It's good to challenge others, but others challenge him beyond his level?

I'm afraid I don't know how to write the word "death".

Therefore, Xu Yang is now fully qualified to regard himself as a practitioner of Qi Dzogchen.

Although it was comparable to the Great Perfection of Qi Training, it did not mean that these techniques were of no value to him.

On the contrary, these exercises meant a lot to him.

Because they represent a system, a system of cultivation and Qi cultivation.

Although the martial arts is wonderful, Xu Yang is not arrogant, nor will he be satisfied with it and rest on his laurels.

He also needs to absorb the power of other systems, integrate it into the martial arts, and turn it into the foundation of the martial arts.

In this way, one day the martial arts will be able to transcend the ordinary world, become superb, and become an earth-shattering martial art of gods and demons.

Who says you can’t practice martial arts when cultivating immortality?

Immortal martial arts are also martial arts, and divine martial arts are also martial arts!

Therefore, these cultivation methods are very important. They include the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the spiritual consciousness of the soul. After being integrated and mastered, the martial arts will definitely be able to go one step further and become "the martial arts of cultivation!"

only……

Xu Yang finished reading the jade slips of several martial arts among the trophies, then mobilized the power of his soul to look inside, and finally discovered a small problem.

He...has no spiritual roots!

Not at all, he is a real, thorough mortal.

This is not surprising, major forces have always had "immortal-seeking envoys" walking around the world. If he had the spiritual root qualifications, he would have been discovered long ago and sent to the world of cultivation. How could he have been fishing on Dongting Lake for decades?

What should I do if I don’t have spiritual roots?

Can't do it!

At least it can’t be done with the techniques of the cultivation world.

They just have the same attitude. If you don't have spiritual roots, don't cultivate. Otherwise, they will just be eunuchs who go to brothels and just stare at them because they are helpless.

This is a big problem.

But it's not a problem for Xu Yang.

If you don’t have spiritual roots, don’t cultivate yourself?

Then he just doesn’t cultivate.

What he mainly values ​​​​is the use of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the cultivation of soul and mind through cultivation techniques.

Although the two are also formed around spiritual roots, the three thousand avenues lead to the same goal through different paths. Xu Yang can transplant their ideas and create his own method of martial arts and immortality, or use some organ to replace the spiritual roots.

According to the description in the cultivation technique, spiritual roots are similar to Dantian. They are secret treasures of the human body. Although they cannot be seen or touched, they do exist.

Since it exists, there are ways to transplant, replace, give birth to, and create. Xu Yang does not believe that a living person can be suffocated to death by urine.

Therefore, the problem of spiritual roots is not a problem.

After reading the jade slips of the exercises, Xu Yang turned his attention to those "miscellaneous books".

These miscellaneous books are of various kinds, some are jade slips and some are books.

Xu Yang picked up a jade slip and looked into it with his will.

Then, he withdrew again with a speechless expression.

There are really all kinds of things, including dynamic erotic pictures!

It's a pity that the painting is very average, not even as good as the Tang Dynasty and Zhou Dynasty...

Ahem, back to the topic, Xu Yang rummaged through a pile of miscellaneous books and finally found some valuable things.

First of all, it is a travelogue, a travelogue in the world of cultivation, recording the customs and customs of various places in the world of cultivation.

The second is a map that records the topography of the world of cultivation, as well as the distribution of forces, and even shows the information about the forces.

Finally, there is a book called "Preliminary Interpretation of Formation Dao"!

Formation book?

No, no, no, it's not a formation book, it's just the most basic knowledge about formations.

Although there are hundreds of arts in cultivation, the ones that are most popular are those types: formations, pills, weapons, and talismans.

The Array Master is at the top of the contempt chain. He has the highest status, the strongest strength, and the most benefits. He is invincible.

The only drawback is that it tends to go bald.

There is no way, the formation is very difficult to learn, it is difficult at the beginning, it is difficult in the middle, it is even more difficult at the end, and it is even more difficult at the end.

But this still cannot erase the power and dignity of the formation master. The value of the formation inheritance will always be higher than that of alchemy, seal writing, weapon refining and other skills.

Xu Yang also wants to become a formation master.

For formation masters, the most difficult thing is learning. Formations are difficult to learn and even harder to master. Many formation masters even abandon their practice in order to study advanced formations. They fail first without mastering the formations.

But this is not a problem for Xu Yang. What he is not afraid of the most is studying, and what he is most indispensable for is time.

Even if he has poor understanding, poor qualifications, and poor formation talent, he can still succeed through time.

Not to mention, he also has an attribute panel and skill characteristics.

The Tao of Formation is like a fish in water to him!

Unfortunately, this is just a preliminary explanation of formations, not a real formation book. It only contains analysis of a few common formations and some common knowledge about formations, but no real formation methods.

"You can consider buying one. There are a lot of spiritual stones anyway. A basic formation book won't be too expensive, right?"

Xu Yang rubbed his chin and quickly came up with an idea.

Just do it.

Xu Yang opened the map and started picking targets.

When shopping, of course you have to go to the market.

But it’s not just any market.

It depends on the type of item and the characteristics of the market, but the most important thing is the market's strength, business reputation, and distribution of robbers, which are life-threatening information.

Fortunately, they are all marked on the map.

Soon Xu Yang found a market that was most suitable for him based on his own conditions.

Bailongdao Fang City is located in Bailong Lake. It is a city built on an island in the lake.

He can be reached through the tributaries of the Dongting water system, ensuring that he can enter the water at any time and exert his characteristics as a "muddy water dragon".

In addition, the level of strength in Bailonghufang City and the surrounding cultivation world is generally low. Foundation-building monks are the main ones, and there are basically no golden elixirs. Those who are in charge of the city are also foundation-building monks.

The golden elixir doesn't come out, it's just a foundation, and it's on the island in the middle of the lake. As long as he doesn't get caught in the formation, he has full confidence in escaping.

So... go check it out?

By the way, they also avoided the limelight. Those five cultivators all had personal connections. Now that they were all destroyed in Dongting Lake, who knows what kind of trouble they would cause.

It was such a happy decision.

Go to Bailong Lake!

I can really write 20,000 words in one day. I admire myself.
