Chapter 1211
The spiritual energy of this world is extremely thin.
This was something Su Xuan knew from the moment he arrived in this world; because the heaven and earth energy is thin, it is extremely difficult to make rapid progress through cultivation.
Su Xuan set foot on the path of cultivation by combining the arts of eating, medicine, and other arts from the seventy-two earthly transformations with guidance techniques.
Rather than saying it was a cultivation method, it would be better to say it was a combination of several cultivation methods that finally succeeded in cultivation.
Even so, relying solely on medicinal materials only allowed his cultivation speed to progress rapidly before the Primordial Spirit; after achieving the Yin Spirit, wanting to condense the Yang Spirit and then combine Yin and Yang to achieve the Primordial Spirit, this hurdle trapped Su Xuan for a long time.
If it weren't for many adventures, he basically would have had no possibility of achieving the Primordial Spirit and then stepping into the Mysterious Penetration Realm.
It was not that Su Xuan's talent was insufficient, but because of the difference in heaven and earth, his set of cultivation methods was not very suitable for this world.
Therefore, after deciding to preach this time, during these few months, Su Xuan had been operating the nine-breath breath-serving method, attempting to find a cultivation method suitable for this world.
In the end, he undoubtedly found it.
Because this cultivation method was extremely similar to the cultivation methods in the cultivation novels Su Xuan had read, he directly adopted the set from the cultivation novels for the division of realms.
After talking about the realms, Su Xuan did not compare the strength of the cultivation realms with the current martial arts realms; there was nothing to compare at all; perhaps, for the current martial artists, Heaven-Man level experts were already unprecedentedly powerful.
But there was no path forward, while cultivation is different; it might be weaker than martial arts at the beginning, but this is a smooth path to the sky, and in the future, one can become an immortal, even if only one person becomes an immortal in several eras.
That is also an immortal.
It sounds as if it is easy to achieve the Heaven-Man level in martial arts.
And cultivation has a huge advantage over martial arts, which is that the lifespan is long enough.
After finishing the realms, glancing at the crowd with changing expressions, Su Xuan officially taught the Dao of Immortality.
"The first realm of cultivation is Qi Refining."
"The so-called Qi Refining refers to drawing the energy of heaven and earth into the body and condensing one's own strand of innate energy."
"Mortals cultivate immortality, because they do not understand the method, it is difficult to perceive the existence of heaven and earth energy, so they need to meditate, and through meditation, perceive the existence of heaven and earth energy..."
Su Xuan's words were leisurely, and he taught a meditation method lightly.
After teaching the meditation method, he also said that under normal circumstances, it would take a few days at the shortest and a few months at the longest; if a few months passed and you practiced diligently but still could not perceive the energy of heaven and earth, this proves that you are not suitable for cultivating immortality, so give up early and find another way.
"Qi Refining is divided into nine layers; each layer is like a mortal practicing martial arts, the body will undergo different changes; in this process, one can perform some simple techniques; the division of each layer is judged by the amount of innate energy condensed."
Without teaching techniques, Su Xuan was already very selfless to be able to teach the Dao of Immortality; as for the so-called techniques, he believed in the wisdom of the people of the world; after the method of cultivating immortality was thoroughly spread throughout the world, someone would find a way to research many techniques.
Just like current martial arts, many moves were created by experts of various eras one after another.
"After nine layers of Qi Refining, use the condensed innate energy as a seed, draw the power of heaven and earth, and conduct foundation establishment; this foundation is the foundation of the Dao of Immortality; as the saying goes, a tree that fills the arms grows from a tiny sprout, a nine-story platform rises from a pile of earth, and a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step; how far one can go on the road of immortality in the future depends on whether the foundation is solid or not."
After Su Xuan said this, many people looked towards the direction of the Daoist people.
Only because the metaphor Su Xuan used came from the "Dao De Jing" of the Dao Ancestor.
Hundreds of years ago, the Dao Ancestor Lao Dan preached the "Dao De Jing" on this Guemiao Terrace, and later it was carried forward by the True Person Wen Shi, Yin Xi, and the Daoist School rose because of this; today, Su Xuan, this Yin-Yang School Sect Master and current State Preceptor, was also preaching on this Guemiao Terrace.
In a trance, it seemed like a cycle.
"Generally speaking, the innate energy after nine layers of Qi Refining is enough to condense a foundation; of course, if one has perseverance, one can also continue the process of Qi Refining, such as reaching the tenth, eleventh, or even hundredth layer; at that time, the more innate energy condensed, the higher the success rate of foundation establishment, and the foundation will be more solid; by the same token, with so much innate energy, not to mention the time consumed in the cultivation process, the difficulty of foundation establishment will also double."
Many people were seeing Su Xuan for the first time; in their impression, Su Xuan, as the Yin-Yang School Sect Master and Qin State Preceptor, should logically be a person with a cold personality, high above, and unfeeling.
But in today's preaching, Su Xuan overturned their past cognition of him.
Although when he appeared, Su Xuan made a big commotion, such as various visions, which made him appear extremely mysterious, but after Su Xuan spoke, everyone found that Su Xuan had no airs at all.
Of course, now is not the time to care about this; the point is that Su Xuan did indeed teach a different path of cultivation.
Whether this path is the true path to immortality and whether one can become an immortal, no one knows. But it is indeed different from the current cultivation method.
Everyone was unwilling to miss a single word and kept Su Xuan's words in their minds.
People like Guiguzi, while keeping Su Xuan's words in their minds, were also studying the cultivation method of immortality taught by Su Xuan in detail; it seemed that the cultivation method at the Qi Refining level taught by Su Xuan was somewhat similar to the conventional internal energy cultivation methods in the Jianghu, but it was completely different.
It only lies in the fact that there is an extremely important key point in this cultivation method taught by Su Xuan.
That is "the power of heaven and earth"; one must know that ordinary martial artists can only release internal energy after advancing to the Innate Realm, and to use the power of heaven and earth, one must at least be at the Grandmaster or Great Grandmaster realm.
Just the first realm of cultivation requires drawing the power of heaven and earth into the body.
Not to mention anything else, at least this starting point is different from ordinary internal energy cultivation methods.
According to Su Xuan, there are ten realms of cultivation; Guiguzi was very curious about the subsequent realms.
Now, Su Xuan had finished talking about the Qi Refining realm; later, as expected, what followed should be the method of foundation establishment.
However, unexpectedly, just when Guiguzi was preparing to listen to the subsequent cultivation methods, Su Xuan spoke.
"Today, let's stop here!"
