Under one person: I, Zhang Zhiwei, the arrogant Zhang.

Chapter 628: Breaking through the Saint Thief, opening the gate to heaven, and connecting the bridge between heaven and earth

In the monastery at Mount Longhu, Zhang Zhiwei sat cross-legged in meditation, with the seven energy fields containing the seven souls in his body glowing.

He is practicing the way of a sage, and he is only one step away from opening the door to heaven, connecting the bridge between heaven and earth, and absorbing the qi of heaven and earth for his own use.

After the seven energy fields became powerful, not only did they cause some qualitative changes in his life, causing his body to develop the characteristics of a saint, but they also caused a ball of Qi to appear in his body.

This ball of Qi is born from the central soul among the seven souls, which is located at the navel.

Moreover, this ball of Qi will only appear when you are practicing Qigong. Once you stop practicing Qigong, this ball of Qi will dissipate throughout your limbs and bones, leaving no trace.

Zhang Zhiwei has practiced this Qi many times.

Several times before, he did not know the specific usage of this ball of Qi, and had wanted to absorb and refine this ball of Qi into his Dantian.

But soon, he found that he was overthinking. This ball of Qi born from the seven souls was very special. It could not be absorbed and could only be dissipated passively.

"Although I have tried several times but failed, it is not a complete failure. I may understand the use of this ball of Qi."

Zhang Zhiwei muttered to himself, and then controlled the Qi to radiate from the central soul, flowing along the meridians of the whole body to every limb and bone.

Wherever this ball of Qi appears in the body, a big bag will appear in that part of the body. Its route seems to be aimless and without rules, but in fact it is circulating back and forth between the seven souls.

While it is running, this ball of Qi will also be consumed and will gradually become smaller, but every time it reaches an energy field, this ball of Qi will be replenished and grow stronger again.

"The reason why the Qi ball has become smaller is because it has been absorbed by my body, and the Seven Souls are the gas stations of the Qi ball. As long as it passes through the Seven Souls, the previously absorbed part will be replenished. So where did the absorbed Qi go?"

Zhang Zhiwei felt it carefully and found that his attainment in observing himself was much higher than that in observing external objects, so he could perceive extremely subtle changes in himself.

He discovered that even after absorbing the Qi ball, his body did not change at all, and his cultivation of "life" remained the same as before.

Since his "fate" had not changed, Zhang Zhiwei went to check his own "nature".

Afterwards, he discovered that his "sexuality" had become stronger. Even though the degree of strengthening was very limited, Zhang Zhiwei still keenly noticed it.

"In other words, this ball of Qi born from the seven souls is the final step of Qingxuan's method."

"Next, we just need to use the spirit to nourish the soul, so that the soul can grow strong enough to leave the body, connect to the bridge between heaven and earth, and exist by absorbing the power of heaven and earth."

After understanding a little more, Zhang Zhiwei calmed down and carefully experienced this process. Although the seven souls are the seven energy fields of the human body, they also represent emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, hate, and desire.

To practice Qi is to refine one's own Qi, which is also called refining essence into Qi.

To cultivate "nature" is to refine all the unnecessary delusions formed in one's soul, such as greed, desire, fear, etc., so that one can become clear and peaceful.

The false thoughts that have been refined are used to nourish and strengthen one's own soul.

This process is not intuitive, and these false thoughts are not enemies, so even many practitioners with advanced cultivation find it difficult to explore the wonders of it.

They only know that as long as they calm down, their own "nature" will be improved, so they are all pursuing the realm of tranquility.

The reason why Zhang Zhiwei's life improved so quickly was because he could feel things that ordinary people could not feel.

Others seek quietness for the sake of quietness, so they find it boring and painful.

While he was chanting the golden mantra to temper his life, he regarded himself as a golden gluttonous snake, and those false thoughts were food on the road. Every time he ate a piece, he grew a little bit.

This kind of meditation practice, which was only for the purpose of eliminating delusions and not for the pursuit of tranquility, actually allowed him to reach a very high level of tranquility. His level of meditation improved rapidly and his own cultivation also soared.

"The seven spirits represent the seven desires of joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, hate, and lust, which are also commonly known as delusions."

"Qing Xuan's method makes the seven spirits stronger, and these seven kinds of delusions will naturally grow stronger as well. By absorbing these stronger delusions, one's own soul will naturally grow stronger as well."

"Combined with the previous method of communication between heaven and man, use the huge soul to break through the Baihui acupoint, open the door to heaven, and connect the bridge between heaven and earth, and it will be done."

"but……"

Zhang Zhiwei frowned. Although this method could quickly strengthen the soul, it was undoubtedly a method of forcing things to grow.

The soul relies on absorbing the seven emotions and six desires that have not been refined to improve itself. The final result is undoubtedly being influenced by delusions, losing one's self, and being dominated by desires.

Just like Qingxuan, he was obviously a talented disciple of Taoism, but in the end he turned into a demon who eats people without blinking an eye.

"It seems that this is a group of false Qi, and the disadvantages are huge!"

Zhang Zhiwei shifted his attention from the ball of Qi to his thoughts sitting high on the spiritual platform.

Sure enough, beneath the small space of his spiritual platform, huge waves surged and delusions surged like sea waves. Fortunately, his consciousness was high up, so he was not affected.

If it were someone else, I'm afraid their mind would be affected.

Of course, this influence is subtle and most people cannot feel it. They will only feel uneasy, their moods fluctuate, and they will be easily happy and angry. By the time they feel it, it is already too late to turn back.

Feeling the ups and downs of delusions and a large amount of impurities in his soul, Zhang Zhiwei stopped practicing and dispersed the delusional Qi to the seven spirits.

The rapid ascension of the soul ended. Zhang Zhiwei held his breath and began to refine the false thoughts that had just been absorbed into his soul.

Although Zhang Zhiwei's mind was high and this delusion had no effect on him, the rapid improvement of his "sexual" ability in this way was flawed and had gaps.

What he wanted was a perfect life and death, not this kind of bloating. In order to avoid future troubles, he had to take the trouble to refine it once more.

Although there will be some loss if he refines it again, and the "sexuality" that has just been improved will drop back a little, at the same time, the foundation of his "sexuality" will be more solid.

All in all, this deal is not a loss.

Refining false thoughts was not a difficult task for Zhang Zhiwei and he completed it quickly.

He felt himself carefully, and soon discovered that although this method was a little troublesome, it greatly improved his sexual performance, almost equivalent to several days' hard work.

"It has been such a short while and I have seen this effect. If I keep practicing, I am afraid that it won't be long before my soul will also undergo some transformation like my body and possess some saintly characteristics."

Zhang Zhiwei talked to himself, then he continued to meditate with his eyes closed, and began to try to open the door to heaven, break through the shackles of his soul, and absorb the power of heaven and earth.

When he tried to do this before, he felt that he was only one step away from connecting heaven and earth. But now, he felt that there was only a thin film left, which seemed to be able to be pierced at any time.

Of course, this is just an illusion. If you really want to break it... Zhang Zhiwei roughly estimated that it would take a few days. "Don't worry, it's just a few days. It's a matter of time!" Zhang Zhiwei said to himself and then repeated the previous practice.

Not long after, the huge bell outside the Great Shangqing Palace rang out. The sound was so loud that it could be heard clearly from miles away. The Taoists in the Tianshi Mansion began to get up to attend today's morning class.

And at this time... Lu Ci also finished his practice.

High-end practice often only requires the simplest method of practice. After a busy night, Master Lu began to return to his room carrying a hoe.

The skill of hoeing the ground is different from the skill of inner cultivation and stillness. Practicing inner cultivation and stillness will make you energetic after a night, but practicing the skill of hoeing the ground will make you exhausted after a night.

Lu Ci was not interested in the morning classes at Mount Longhu. During the past few days, he meditated and rested in the morning, practiced Ruyi Jin in the afternoon, practiced sparring with Lu Jin in the evening, and went to plow the fields in the middle of the night. His day was fully scheduled.

Trinity Sect is a sect that integrates three religions. All three religions have morning classes, and Trinity Sect is no exception.

Therefore, Lu Jin integrated well into the practice of Tianshi Mansion. Except for not being ordained, he was almost the same as a Taoist priest.

Although their methods of practice were completely different, both of them made remarkable progress.

Zhang Zhiwei had not attended morning classes for a few days since he went down the mountain. He missed his fellow disciples very much, so he went to attend this morning class.

Seeing Zhang Zhiwei appear in the morning class, all the fellow disciples cheered.

Even Zhang Huaiyi, who had always been a bit withdrawn, was genuinely happy. Although he regarded Zhang Zhiwei as his target in his heart, this did not hinder the brotherhood between them.

Thus, the originally serious morning class was taken over by Zhang Zhiwei and turned into his personal lecture hall.

"Forced" by the curiosity of his fellow disciples, Zhang Zhiwei told them about his trip down the mountain.

Upon hearing the news of Bai Xian's death, who had saved so many lives, all the fellow disciples were furious and demanded that the Japanese pirates pay with their lives.

And when they heard that Zhang Zhiwei and several great immortals had taken revenge together and killed the Japanese pirates, all the brothers cheered and said it was so exciting. At the same time, they also sighed that Zhang Zhiwei did not bring them down the mountain this time, otherwise they would have killed the Japanese pirates with swords.

Some people also lamented that there are good monsters among them, and when they are encountered in future exorcism, they must find out the reasons and cannot kill them indiscriminately.

After bragging to his fellow disciples for a while, Zhang Zhiwei did not forget the purpose of the morning class and began to preach.

Zhang Zhiwei is a big talker, and he speaks in a leisurely and relaxed manner, without any airs at all.

This time he is going to talk about the changes in sword techniques in "Yuyang Sword Art".

"A tiger's leap cannot enter a dragon, a dragon's flip cannot enter a tiger. Dragons and tigers' leaps are all like snakes, advancing straight into the chest and unstoppable. Left and right advance and retreat have their own reality and falsehood, the six methods give rise to hundreds of wonders..."

"Yuyang Sword Art" comes from "Arm", which contains Yuyang Sword Immortal's understanding of swordsmanship.

Zhang Zhiwei roughly selected some of the essences to explain. While explaining, Zhang Zhiwei flicked his fingers in the air to emit sword energy as a practice.

All the fellow disciples under the platform listened very attentively.

Most of these classics are obscure and difficult to read, and must be passed down orally. Only Zhang Zhiwei can explain these mysterious classics, which require long essays to explain, in a simple and easy-to-understand way in just a few sentences.

Therefore, whenever he gave a lecture, not only his fellow students but also some elders who were more open-minded would come to listen. And this time, Zhang Zhiwei's explanation really benefited them a lot.

Especially Tian Jinzhong, he was already practicing the Tiantong Sword Finger, and Zhang Zhiwei's sermon was like a pillow for him when he was sleepy, and it touched him directly.

In fact, this was what Zhang Zhiwei specifically told him after he saw Tian Jinzhong practicing sword in the middle of the night last night.

Another person who also gained a lot was Lu Jin. He was also practicing the Tiantong Sword Finger. In fact, because his attainments in this area were slightly higher than Tian Jinzhong's, his gains were even greater.

Before today, he activated the reverse life state, gathered Qi in his hands, and attacked with all his strength, but at most he could only break Lu Ci's three consecutive Ruyi Jin shock powers.

But now, he weighed it up and decided that breaking five of them was not a problem. Even though it was only an increase of two, it also meant that he had the ability to fight Lu Ci head-on, which was a huge improvement.

"You can be as strong as you want, but I will go up on my own, Hedgehog. In a few days, I will avenge the abuse I suffered these days!"

Lu Jin thought excitedly.

Originally, they were looking for the "national teacher" to learn from, and were beaten to death every day.

But during these days, Zhang Zhiwei went to Liaodong, so they naturally could not find the "imperial teacher" again, so they went to find Zhang Huaiyi.

But Zhang Huaiyi is the person who hates sparring the most in all Longhu Mountain. There is no need to spar with those who he can beat, and there is no need to seek abuse from those who he cannot beat. He can beat both Lu Ci and Lu Jin, so naturally he has no interest in sparring with them.

There was no other way, Lu Jin could only spar with Lu Ci, but these days Lu Ci had just perfected the Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound, and had also mastered the Ruyi Shock Force, and his momentum was strong.

Although Lu Jin had made some progress in his Tiantong Finger Technique and the Third Level of Ni Sheng, he was still inferior to Lu Ci and was beaten badly every time in the past few days.

After listening to this class, he finally found a chance to get back at his old self.

After the morning class, it was time for breakfast. Zhang Zhiwei took his fellow apprentices to

Have breakfast, and then do your own thing.

"Senior Brother Zhang, although you said it easily this time, I can imagine the danger of this operation. It's a pity that I couldn't help!" Lu Jin caught up and said with a guilty look on his face.

"Yes, Senior Brother, next time something like this happens, you must call me!" Tian Jinzhong looked at Zhang Zhiwei, "Senior Brother, the Yuyang Sword Technique you talked about today was for me, right? Most of my doubts about cultivation have been solved." He
He reacted belatedly.

"When I came back last night, I saw you practicing sword, so I suddenly had an idea. You should practice well. If you're good, I'll take you with me next time I go down the mountain!" Zhang Zhiwei said with a smile.

When Tian Jinzhong heard this, he was so happy that he nodded like a chick pecking at rice. He quickly said goodbye to his senior brother and went back to practice.

There was someone rolling in front of him, so Lu Jin naturally didn't want to be left behind, so he ran back to rest.

And Zhang Zhiwei, the king of scrolls, also returned to the chapel to practice.

In the following days, Zhang Zhiwei lived a simple life just like he does today. He would occasionally go to morning and evening classes to preach, and occasionally give guidance to his fellow disciples. He spent most of his time cultivating the seven energy fields and nourishing his soul.

Finally, on the seventh night of Zhang Zhiwei's practice, the Baihui point on the top of his head suddenly vibrated, like a thunder in early spring, waking up all things.

At this moment, his spirit transformed, broke free from the shackles of his primordial spirit, opened the door to heaven, connected to the bridge between heaven and earth, and the endless stream of heaven and earth Yuan Qi from the outside world poured in.
