Chapter 64: Merit, Golden Body and Spiritual Body

 Zhuan Gong Hall.

The founder of Qingfeng Sect is the heel of the Taoist sect, and the inheritance is orderly. In addition to the inheritance of the sect, the Chuan Gong Hall also has the skills of various sects collected from generation to generation.

As one of the five halls of the sect, the Chuan Gong Hall has one palace master, three Chuan Gong elders, eight Chuan Gong deacons, and countless stewards and fire workers below.

Just on the first floor of the Chuan Gong Hall, there are no less than ten thousand volumes of books, which is as vast as a sea.

 One layer of classics, mainly various miscellaneous books and Qi refining period exercises.

 Bai Zichen had inquired about it before coming and went straight to the second floor.

 The collection of books on the second floor is only about one-tenth of that on the first floor, but the overall value has increased a lot.

Like cultivation techniques, if they are not directly related to elixir formation, they are not qualified to be included in it.

 All the books in the collection are divided into rows of giant bookshelves according to several major categories.

There are several jade slips mixed in the middle, which obviously contains more precious information.

Bai Zichen stood in front of the bookshelf, took a closer look, and walked towards the exercise bookshelf that occupied the most space.

 The matter of the spiritual body was of great importance, and he did not want to be exposed to the eyes of the public.

By the way, I also want to know about the major exercises in the future, which can be used to deceive others.

 See the annotated edition of Tongqi Shangyang Zhenjun.

On the bookshelf of the Qingfeng Sect, the fundamental Dafa of Qingfeng Sect is placed at the end.

 There are at least a handful of cultivation techniques that can directly lead to the perfection of elixir formation, but the Annotated Edition of Zhenjun Shangyang’s Shen Tongqi is the core and most important one.

The founder of the Qingfeng sect’s opening sect practiced exactly this technique, and the other techniques were slowly gathered under various opportunities.

Shangyang Zhenjun is the Taoist mentor of the founder of Kaipai, and is respected as the Taoist Patriarch by the Qingfeng Sect.

 At this time, what is placed on the second floor is the first volume of the exercises.

Bai Zichen opened the title page of the exercise method, and the beginning was a mysterious scripture, which made everyone confused.

Each word of the skill can be understood when broken down, and when combined, it is like a book from heaven.

“No wonder it is displayed generously on the second floor of the Hall of Transmission. If there were no annotations and guidance from elders, it would take an ordinary monk half a lifetime to understand this skill.”

 After a full stick of incense, Bai Zichen raised his head from the exercise and put it down helplessly.

"No wonder the sect does not encourage Qi refining disciples to practice Shen Tongqi, but waits until the foundation is established before they can comprehend it. There are even many elders who do not have much understanding of the foundation building cultivation, and finally practice other techniques. "

Besides the Shen Tong Deed, there are more than ten kinds of cultivation techniques.

Each practice method has left dozens or hundreds of volumes of notes, all written by seniors from the Qingfeng Sect.

Those who can be admitted to the Hall of Transmission will naturally be tested by future generations and have truly useful insights.

"It's funny that I was still thinking about whether to switch to the Houtu Jue or the Gengjin Chunyang method. There is no external method that is as reliable as the sect's own. There are so many previous experiences that I can refer to. And the top priority is to improve my realm. To cultivate a high-level skill that can be directly used to form pills, it would take at least three to five years to refining mana in the later stage of Qi refining... It is not cost-effective."

Those disciples in the qi-refining period who switch to practicing martial arts are either hopeless, so they need to switch to a martial art that is conducive to fighting and has powerful magic power, so as to gain a little more ability when fighting.

Perhaps something went wrong in the practice and the original method has stagnated, so it is necessary to change the method.

Based on Bai Zichen's current situation and after referring to several predecessors' notes, he decided to practice Changchun Kung to the Great Perfection of Qi Refining.

 At this time, retraining the exercises would do more harm than good to oneself.

I scanned through these exercises in a quick glance. There was a bookshelf next to it that was used as a teaching tool. I picked up the section about flying swords, picked up a volume and read it carefully.

"As expected, there is no formal sword cultivation method in Qingfeng Sect. The highest level is the refining inheritance of the second-level flying sword. It has not been successfully refined for many years... If you really use the flying sword as your first method of killing enemies in the future, you will even prepare to refine it. If it’s a natal magic weapon, you have to go outside to find another set of sword cultivation inheritance.”

Bai Zichen turned around twice and finally found traces of the Sword Cultivation Sect in a miscellaneous book called "Comments on the Immortal Cultivation Sect of the Liang Kingdom".

Hush the Sun Sword Gate and point the sword at the sun, then the sunlight will be dimmed, and most of the people under the gate will be mad and arrogant.

 The standards for accepting disciples are extremely strict. Non-swordsman geniuses will not be accepted, and the sect cannot have more than a hundred people.

 Therefore, the disciples of the Hiding Sun Sword Sect are all highly skilled in combat, but the overall strength of the sect is not considered top-notch in the Liang Kingdom.

Bai Zichen turned to the page introducing the Qingfeng Sect with great interest. There were only a few sentences.

I have a partial one, and there are few exchanges with other ancestors. There is no talent in the door. However, it is reported that the Gate is authentic, which is different from the rest of Liang Guo.

Since his sect was looked down upon, Bai Zichen curled his lips and threw away this miscellaneous book.

Hands on, he has arrived in front of the bookshelf introducing spiritual roots and spiritual bodies.

 On this bookshelf, there are only a few volumes, which mainly talk about the miraculousness of the Heavenly Spiritual Roots and the special features of various types of foreign spiritual roots, and how to make the best use of them.

 Only the last volume records most of the known spirits in the world of immortality.

 But many of them only have one name, and the specific mystery of the spirit body is only the editor's personal guess.

 Because this kind of spirit body has probably never appeared in the entire Liang Kingdom.

The cultivation speed of the Great Sun Flame Body is comparable to that of the fire-type Heavenly Spiritual Root, but it does not help in building foundations or forming pills. You still need to break through it yourself.

Hand innately close to fire-based spiritual power, all fire-based spells are at least 50% more powerful.

 During the foundation building stage, you can master the secret technique of growing lotus in the fire, survive in desperate situations, and protect your life in case of death.

Once the elixir is formed, it can be refined into the true fire of the sun, which can burn all things and restrain all evil spirits.

The Qingfeng Sect produced a real person named Danjie who possessed the Great Sun Flame Body, and had the most complete record of this spiritual body, with thousands of words written in it.

“Yimu spirit body…Pure Yang spirit body…Vajra spirit body…Blood Talisman spirit body, here we have it, meritorious golden body spirit body!”

Bai Zichen turned to the last two pages and finally saw the golden body and spirit body of merit, and his chest was filled with turmoil.

Take a few deep breaths to calm down, and then move your eyes to look down.

"The golden body and spirit body of meritorious deeds are rare in the world of immortality. There are less than ten recorded cases, all of which appear in Buddhist countries."

“Therefore, having a golden body and spiritual body with merits and virtues is regarded as a symbol of the Buddha. Once discovered, it will be regarded as the successor of the mantle by the Buddhist and Taoist sect.”

“This spirit body is not good at fighting and is helpless in cultivation. It has only one advantage: turning a chasm in the sky into a thoroughfare.”

“Whoever possesses this spirit body will have an additional 50% chance of building a foundation, a 30% chance of forming a pill, and a 10% chance of transforming into an infant!”

 Bai Zichen finished the introduction to the meritorious golden body spirit body, and was ecstatic in his heart. He found out that the miraculous spirit body had the effect of reducing bottlenecks all the way to the incarnation.

"Even if there is a false word in my spirit body detection, I will treat it as a 30% discount... That can also increase the probability of foundation building by 35%, which is equivalent to me directly attacking the foundation building and taking one with others. The effect of the Foundation Establishment Pill is the same!"

Bai Zichen's heart was at a loss, and he kept walking vaguely by feeling the stones. Even if his cultivation went smoothly, he was always uneasy and fearful of the unknown.

Now that I have a basic understanding of the functions of the spiritual body, I will have a clear understanding of it.

"Just based on this description, if I don't take the Foundation Establishment Pill and directly attack the Foundation Establishment, there is still a high possibility of failure..."

After being overjoyed, Bai Zichen calmed down and fell into deep thought.
