People drifted to lose contact in Qin Dynasty

While thinking about it, Bei Mingzi also said to Ying Zheng: "Bei Mingzi is no more than a foreigner, so he cannot bear such a heavy gift from Emperor Shihuang!"

Ying Zheng smiled and said, "Master Beiming is humble."

Bei Mingzi said again: "I learned from little friend Bai Chuan that the First Emperor is quite interested in the way of cultivation?"

Hearing this, Yingzheng said with a serious expression, "I also ask Master Beiming to give me a lesson or two!"

Bei Mingzi lightly stroked his beard and said, "Since Emperor Shi Huang asked, Bei Mingzi should try his best to solve your majesty's confusion!"

Immediately, in this Zhangtai Palace, he told Ying Zheng the way of practice.

After Bai Chuan told Yingzheng that he could prolong his life through practice, Yingzheng asked someone to investigate afterwards, and found that the life span of those practitioners was indeed much longer than that of ordinary people and ordinary warriors.

At the same time, he also had some understanding of Taoist practice.

Building foundations in a hundred days, refining grains into essences, refining essences into qi, refining qi into gods, refining gods to return emptiness, refining emptiness to join the Tao...

The names of each realm seem to be extremely mysterious, but in fact there is no difference between them in the early stage and ordinary martial artists in the Jianghu. , Deriving a sense of qi, and the way of cultivating internal strength, it was not until after refining qi and transforming into a god that it was different from ordinary martial artists in the martial arts world.

The reason why Taoism and Yin-Yang schools are able to perform spells is because of this "God", using the will of the gods as a bridge, combining the power of heaven and earth with the internal power of their own body, and gathering the power of heaven and earth for their own use. Incomparably powerful technique.

Although Ying Zheng is an emperor, he has never been a powerless person. He has also practiced swordsmanship, and his swordsmanship is quite good.

When Gai Nie first came to Qin, his position was the chief swordsmanship teacher.

Therefore, Yingzheng is not very interested in the practice of Taoism before refining Qi and transforming God, but if Bei Mingzi is going to talk, he still intends to listen to it. After all, practice is a gradual process, perhaps because The path of Taoist practice is different from that of ordinary Jianghu warriors, which enables them to master the magical power that Jianghu warriors cannot possess in the later stage.

As a result, the way of practice described by Bei Mingzi exceeded Ying Zheng's expectations.

The first step is still to build a foundation in a hundred days.

A tall building rises from the ground, whether it is the cultivation of external skills or internal skills, this level is a necessary level, let alone.

The second step of Taoist practice is to refine the grain and transform it into essence. As a result, the second step has changed with Bei Mingzi.

It became... Sitting and forgetting!

The method practiced by Confucian Yan Lu is called the method of sitting and forgetting the mind. Although this method comes from Confucian Yan Hui, the earliest source is Zhuang Zhou's "The Great Master", so no one can tell whether it belongs to The Confucian view is still the Taoist view.

Regardless of whether it comes from Confucianism or Taoism, in Bei Mingzi's case, the second step of practice is sitting and forgetting.

The so-called "sitting and forgetting" is to "throw away the intelligence, leave the form to know", forget one's own body, abandon one's own intelligence, the consciousness gets rid of the shackles of body and intelligence, and integrates with the Dao.

Only in this way can we achieve the mental state of "clearing the mind and taste", "fitting with nature", "accommodating all things in the heart", and "traveling together on the road".

Only such a state of tranquility, tranquility, loneliness, and inaction can wash away all acquired traces, and you will not feel yourself inside, and you will not know the world outside...

Make the acupoints of the body resonate naturally with the heaven and the earth!

If the hundred-day foundation building in the first step is considered to be a foundation and not difficult, then the difficulty of the second step suddenly soars.

A long time ago, Yingzheng knew that Tianzong's acceptance of disciples was based on talent, but it was just beginning to practice, so it was so difficult.

And he has never heard of the state of sitting and forgetting in Taoist practice.

Could it be that Bei Mingzi is sincerely making things difficult for me?Don't want to tell me about the way of practice?

Ying Zheng's thoughts flickered, and in the end, because of Bai Chuan's face, he was still ready to listen to Bei Mingzi's continuation.

Chapter 480

The third step after sitting and forgetting is called "nourishing qi" by Bei Mingzi.

If it is said that sitting and forgetting is to integrate one's spirit with the Dao, become one with the heaven and the earth, and feel the breath of the heaven and the earth, then nourishing the qi is to introduce the qi of the heaven and the earth into the body, and use the qi of the heaven and the earth to nourish one's own qi.

This qi is not an ordinary internal qi, but is called "innate one qi".

After cultivating the innate qi, use this qi to replace the gods that were cultivated after refining qi and transforming the gods in the past, and serve as a bridge to communicate with the power of heaven and earth. "Nourish the body, so as to achieve the realm of both internal and external cultivation.

It seems that there is no difference between this path of practice and the orthodox path of Taoism. It is all about refining essence and refining qi and refining qi to transform gods. Basically, you will find that there is actually a big difference.

The Taoist orthodox practice path is no different from that of ordinary Jianghu warriors in the early stage. It is nothing more than that in the later stage, they can use the secret techniques of Taoism to use their internal forces to draw the power of heaven and earth and cast powerful spells.

However, the cultivation method described by Bei Mingzi this time has intersected with the power of heaven and earth from the very beginning, and the power of heaven and earth has been introduced into the body at the beginning of practice. The source of power, in addition to being used to cast spells, is also a nourishment for accumulating one's own power.

External force nourishes internal force.

Although Ying Zheng is not very proficient in the way of cultivation, he can barely be regarded as a warrior, and he quickly noticed the difference between the two.

He couldn't help but look at Bei Mingzi intently.

……

In Xianyang City, in the mansion, Bai Chuan was sitting in the gazebo, holding a scroll of bamboo slips in his hand.

Xiu'er was sitting opposite him, holding a teacup and shaking it gently, watching the tea in it swaying and smoky, but she never drank the tea in it.

Bai Chuan glanced at her, ignored her, and continued to focus on the bamboo slips.

The bamboo slips were given to Bei Mingzi when he came to Xianyang this time, and they were asked to be opened after he returned, which seemed mysterious.

Bai Chuan was still a little unclear at the beginning.

After returning home, brewing a pot of tea, and opening the bamboo slips, I realized why Bei Mingzi was so mysterious. It turned out that during Bei Mingzi's several years of retreat, he combined Taoist practice And the other way of practice taught by Bai Chuan, taking the strengths of the two, unexpectedly forcibly created another way of practice.

After carefully reading the new path of cultivation created by Bei Mingzi, Bai Chuan has a certain understanding of Bei Mingzi's talent.

Although the practice path of Jiangye World can be passed in this world, this path of practice is, after all, the path of practice in other worlds. This world is not the world of Haotian. Bai Chuan can use this path A large part of the reason for getting through is relying on the help of the system.

This path is not for everyone.

Therefore, after learning about this path of practice, Bei Mingzi did not think about changing the path of practice, but chose to combine some of the methods of practice in this path into the path of Taoism's own practice.

The step of building a foundation in a hundred days has not been changed.

But after this step, the difficulty starts to increase dramatically.

Through the way of sitting and forgetting, to sense the power of heaven and earth, and after realizing the breath of heaven and earth, it is not to use the power of thought to induce the power of heaven and earth, but to simply manipulate the power of heaven and earth for his own use. Bei Mingzi found another way, combining Taoism The secret technique that exists in itself, uses the power of heaven and earth to nourish its own power.

On this path of practice, the power of heaven and earth is not the main source of power. The meaning of its existence is always to nourish one's own power and cultivate that "innate energy".

Bai Chuan didn't know that this was actually not the cultivation path pioneered by Bei Mingzi, but the practice method originated from the ancient qi refiners. It was only because of the great changes in the current environment that the path of qi refiners was no longer easy to follow, so it gradually changed It has become a practice method of cultivating the body first, then cultivating the internal force, and then using the internal force to mobilize the power of heaven and earth.

The cultivation method taught by Bai Chuan gave Bei Mingzi some new inspiration.

With the help of the acupoints in the body, it interacts with the breath of heaven and earth. Although this method requires extremely high talent, first of all, one must be born with unobstructed acupoints, and secondly, be able to enter the realm of visualization.

But if you can get through.

This is undoubtedly an avenue of both internal and external cultivation.

The bamboo slips in Bai Chuan's hands do not contain many cultivation concepts, only the first few realms. This is partly because this method was not long ago created by Bei Mingzi, and partly because Bei Mingzi still has to follow the road ahead. To verify, it is easy to create.

If so, the previous part alone is far better than the original Taoist practice.

"Could it be that Bei Mingzi is going to teach Ying Zheng this path of practice!"

After reading the bamboo slips, Bai Chuan couldn't help thinking.

This time, Bei Mingzi came to Xianyang because he was invited by him to explain the way of cultivation to Ying Zheng. Before meeting Ying Zheng, he gave this bamboo slip to Bai Chuan, which inevitably made Bai Chuan unable to bear it. Think more.

Bai Chuan thought of another question.

This method is indeed mysterious, but the difficulty of practice is not generally high.

If Bei Mingzi told Ying Zheng about this path of cultivation, Ying Zheng would not think that Bei Mingzi was deliberately making things difficult for him!

……

Zhangtai Palace.

After listening to Bei Mingzi's narration, Yingzheng lamented that this path of practice was a bit unusual, and at the same time asked Bei Mingzi: "According to Master Beiming's words, it is not so difficult to become a practitioner. !"

Whether it is to sit and forget or to cultivate "innate oneness", it sounds a little difficult, so Ying Zheng can't help but feel such emotions. Of course, there are hidden meanings in his words.

It should be known that the way of practice described by Bei Mingzi this time is not the original way of practice of Taoism.

Bei Mingzi didn't know if he didn't hear Ying Zheng's hidden meaning, and said indifferently: "Tao should not be passed on lightly, practice itself is not an easy task, and not everyone can have the qualifications to practice!"

"Oh? According to Master Beiming, do I have the qualifications to become a practitioner?" Ying Zheng asked pointedly.

Bei Mingzi stared deeply at Ying Zheng and said, "His Majesty the First Emperor is naturally qualified to become a practitioner!"

"Oh?" Ying Zheng was a little surprised, "According to the path of practice described by Master Beiming, it is only the second step of visualization, which is so difficult. How can Master Beiming be sure that I am qualified to become a practitioner?"

Bei Mingzi said: "I wonder if Your Majesty has ever heard of Juxian Pill?"

"Gathering elixir?"

The name of this elixir aroused Ying Zheng's curiosity, especially the word "immortal" in its name.

Bei Mingzi said: "This elixir originated from ancient times. After taking it, one can reach the realm of transcendence and transcendence. With the help of this elixir, it is not difficult to become a practitioner. As Your Majesty, It is not difficult to obtain this pill. And as far as I know, the Yin Yang family has mastered the method of refining this pill."

It is obvious that Bei Mingzi is a master of Taoism, but at this moment, he mentioned his old enemy, the Yinyang family, which seems a bit weird.

However, Ying Zheng didn't care about this.

What he cares about is that the Gathering Immortality Pill refined by Yun Zhongjun can help him become a practitioner.

At the same time, he couldn't help but glanced at Bei Mingzi, who first told him about this unheard-of cultivation path, and then took the initiative to mention the Yin-Yang family, which would inevitably make him think too much.

Chapter 481 Making things difficult for Yin Yang family

In the elixir of the Yin-Yang family, it is divided into several realms, which are divided according to the grade of the elixir, namely Yugui elixir, real person elixir, and Juxian elixir. Of course, these elixir concepts were not created by the Yin-Yang family. In fact, before the Yin-Yang school broke away from Taoism, a branch of Taoism once gave birth to this kind of alchemy concept, trying to use pills to assist in practice.

Yugui Pill is a semi-finished product, and it can be regarded as a derivative of it. Not to mention, it is a real person pill, which can open up the meridians of the whole body, strengthen the yin and yang, and stimulate various potentials of the body. However, the Taoists discovered that this kind of elixir that stimulates the body's potential is actually an act of exhausting the pond, with various sequelae, so it was given up by the Taoists.

Among the Taoism's original alchemy ideas, the most perfect one is Juxian Pill.

It not only has the effect of the real pill, but also does not have the hidden dangers and disadvantages of the real pill. It is a truly perfect existence. Of course, since we want to pursue perfection, it is not so easy to refine it successfully.

Until later, the Yin-Yang School broke away from Taoism and established itself. No one has successfully refined Juxian Pill, and because the Yin-Yang School's sword is deviant, it is regarded as a heretical sect by the Taoist orthodoxy, so the group who established the Yin-Yang School at that time The alchemy concept of the Taoist ancestors was also sealed by Taoism, and it was regarded as a taboo technique, and they never paid attention to it.

All of this continued until many years ago, when Taoism and Yin-Yang School had a fight, and it was only then that they suddenly discovered that after Yin-Yang School left Taoism for so many years, after several generations of Yin-Yang School's research, they had successfully refined Juxian Pill.

However, since this elixir is known as the most perfect elixir, even the Yin Yang family would have to pay a huge price to succeed in refining this elixir.As for why?Naturally, if they could refine this elixir at will, the Yin Yang family would have conquered Mount Taiyi long ago, and it is impossible for the disciples of the disciples to only have that kind of strength.

Earlier, Dongjun of the Yinyang family rebelled against the Yinyang family and came to Taiyi Mountain under the leadership of Bai Chuan to seek the protection of Tianzong. The concubine got the answer from her mouth.

I just feel that it is so.

For the Yin-Yang family, even if they refine the Immortal Pill, the probability of success is not very high, let alone the Juxian Pill. Over the years, the entire Yin-Yang Family has only refined a few.

Xiangjun, one of the five elders of the Yinyang family, was rewarded with an elixir-gathering elixir because of his great contributions to the Yinyang family, reaching the state of reaching heaven and earth, transcending vulgarity, and his aptitude improved, so he became an elder.

In addition, the refining of each furnace of Gathering Immortal Pill requires a lot of resources. Even if so many resources are invested, the probability of it becoming a pill is extremely low. To make this elixir, the five elders of the Yinyang family have to work hard at the same time, use internal force as fire, and balance the five elements to have a chance to practice it. Every time the furnace is opened, it will bring a huge loss of skill to the five elders of the Yinyang family.

Ying Zheng guessed right, Bei Mingzi did have his own ideas.

Although the path of cultivation described by Bei Mingzi was difficult, since he chose to propose it in front of Ying Zheng, in fact, even without the Immortal Gathering Pill, he still had a way to help Ying Zheng enter the Tao.

However, he deliberately mentioned the Juxian Pill of the Yinyang family, just to disgust the Yinyang family.

Since the Yin-Yang family turned to the Qin State, with the help of the Qin State, the Yin-Yang family has obtained many resources.

Now, since Tianzong of Taoism has chosen to join the WTO, the Yinyang family is still superhuman, which will inevitably make Bei Mingzi a little unhappy.

No matter what Yingzheng thinks about cultivation, when he took the initiative to ask Bei Mingzi for advice, it proved that he was indeed interested in cultivation at this moment.

If Bei Mingzi didn't mention the method to help Yingzheng enter Taoism, Yingzheng might give up temporarily because of the difficulty of practicing Taoism. Gotta try it out.

Similarly, after learning that the Juxian Pill of the Yin Yang family can assist in cultivation, Ying Zheng naturally would not let this opportunity pass.

In fact, Ying Zheng did exactly that.

After Bei Mingzi left Zhangtai Palace, an imperial decree was sent to the Yinyang family.

Didn't say why, just asked the Yin Yang family to refine a batch of elixir.

There is no mention of the number of potions of gathering elixir, but as long as the people of the Yin Yang family are not too stupid, they will understand that Ying Zheng will never only need one, because if Ying Zheng takes it himself, there is only one elixir, and he will never take it. Taken.

So at least two are needed, one of which is for someone else to help him test the medicine.

"Your Majesty the Emperor's will must have been known to His Excellency Donghuang, so please make preparations as soon as possible. When the time comes, if the Yinyang family cannot hand over the Juxian Pill, even if the Yinyang family has a good status in the empire, it is inevitable that they will be punished." Your Majesty is angry!"

After announcing the imperial edict, Zhao Gao, the commander of CRRC Mansion who came to Yinyang's family, said softly.

He is also very clear about what the Yin Yang family's Gathering Immortality Pill is.

After he came to look for a teacher for the Eighteenth Prince that day, the Yin Yang family took out a Gathering Immortality Pill to improve the Eighteenth Prince's physique.

Just because he had seen the mystery of this pill, he was able to understand how precious and extraordinary this thing is.

His Majesty the Emperor wants the Yinyang family to offer this pill, even if he has a close relationship with the Yinyang family, he can only obediently come to announce the decree.

On the high platform, after hearing Zhao Gao's words, Donghuang Taiyi couldn't see his expression clearly because of the mask, but it could be seen from his suddenly sharp eyes that he was not in a good mood.

However, following the imperial decree, he could only respond honestly: "I understand!"
