The heavens start with Buddhist disciples

Chapter 23

Chu Liuxiang thought for a while and said: "So according to what you said, a warrior like me who has penetrated the Great Zhoutian but not the Second Bridge of Heaven and Earth should be called a pseudo-innate."

Ji Ran smiled and said: "We might as well call the warriors who connect the two bridges of heaven and earth as innate masters. And we are just innate warriors."

At this time, the foolish tea master said: "The old Taoist has read the "Golden Elixir Dachengji" compiled by Xiao Tingzhi of the Yuan Dynasty. The recorded content is indeed consistent with what Abbot Wuzhen said. It also introduces the gathering of three flowers at the top. "

"Ask about the gathering of three flowers at the top. The answer is: the spirit and energy are mixed into one. The one orifice in the entrance is the acupoint of the spirit and energy. And it is recorded in "Xingming Guizhi": If the body is covered without moving, the essence will be solid and the water will be directed towards it. Yuan;"

"If the heart is not moving, the Qi will be solid and the fire will rise towards the Yuan;"

"When the true nature is silent, the soul is hidden and the wood is facing the yuan;"

"If you forget about your emotions, your soul will be subdued and your gold will be hidden."

"The four great peace means that the will will be settled and the earth will be in the Yuan Dynasty."

"This means that the five qi are heading towards the yuan, all gathered at the top."

"So the old Taoist believes that this state of refining the spirit and returning to the void can only be achieved after the three flowers gather at the top and the five qi move toward the Yuan. But it seems that all of us here have not been able to achieve it regardless of whether the three flowers gather at the top or the five qi move toward the Yuan. "

Zen Master Sanzang said at this time: "So, I feel that in this discussion of martial arts, we can take a step forward, point out to future generations the path of practice of the three flowers gathering at the top, the five qi heading towards the origin, and even clarify the realm of the innate master." It’s complete. Anything more is just an illusion.”

Everyone nodded in unison, and for the next ten days, Huashan disciples went up and down Chaoyang Peak, and the number of Buddhist and Taoist books on the top of the peak gradually increased.The martial arts masters, all like old scholars, read, discussed, and annotated these classics.

Ji Ran, Chu Liuxiang and others naturally also participated.

In her spare time, Ji Ran said to Chu Liuxiang: "Old bug, I once read the miscellaneous books of unofficial history. It was recorded in the Song Dynasty that there was a master in the world. It is said that he observed the changes in the Spring and Autumn Period for ten years, integrated the 24 solar terms, and created a set that contains the meaning of heaven and earth. Mysterious finger skills."

"It is said that when performing this martial art, superior internal strength is required to stimulate invisible energy in the fingers, thereby killing people invisibly. The finger strength is extremely domineering, and it is both offensive and defensive. It is known as the best finger technique in the world."

"I wonder if this way of imitating nature and being in harmony with heaven and earth is the key to opening the door to the master?"

After hearing this, Chu Liuxiang and everyone put down their books and began to meditate.

Especially Chu Liuxiang was the best. Of all the people present, only he and Ji Ran were the most admired for their fingering skills.After being inspired, Chu Liuxiang was filled with inspiration.Start walking and jumping around the peaks of Huashan Mountain.

Sometimes he picks up fallen leaves from the ground, sometimes he goes down to the mountain streams, regardless of the freezing mountain springs, and sometimes he imitates apes and jumps in the mountains and forests.Let’s not mention all these things for now.

Seeing that Chu Liuxiang was going crazy, Hu Tiehua said angrily to Ji Ran: "You want the old bug to either go crazy or succeed. This is the fastest way to defeat the old bug!"

"Hahaha, I also read it from the book. Who knew he had such a big reaction." Ji Ran said, then looked at Hu Tiehua and said: "Old drunkard, let me tell you..."

"Don't talk, you must not talk, I don't want to go crazy too." Hu Tiehua hurriedly interrupted Ji Ran and said loudly.

After the two bickered, the tense atmosphere just now eased.So Ji Ran looked at Hu Tiehua and said, "Do you really don't want to hear it?"

Hu Tiehua said: "Oh! I'm afraid of you. Just tell me."

"In that ancient book, there are also some insights into boxing techniques."

"Although there are no specific moves, I think it should be useful to you."

"The great skill is like a clumsy thing hidden in the middle, and the chaotic curtains breathe out strange energy. The strange wind blows out and shakes thousands of troops, and the strange thunder and lightning shakes."

"Surprise surprises to control the enemy's momentum and advance first, strange gates secretly open to borrow the power of heaven. Shattering explosions and collapses, strange killings in series, latent strange things dormant and soaring into the sky."

"Double wonders go out to the sea to dominate the north and south, and the sun alone is strong and blooms with wonders. The lonely yin and the soft go against the strange flow, and ninety-nine times there are all kinds of wonders, right and wrong."

"Attack the unpreparedness to penetrate the murderous aura, and the strange orthogonal intersections will cover the canopy. The mind will move through the strange door and the body will be empty. Move the meridians and acupoints to escape the magic."

"The Qi Gang and Qi Qi belong to the same sect, and the Yuxu and the Sky are peerless." Ji Ran said word by word.

Hu Tiehua listened blankly, and then said: "Monk, monk, please write it down for me. It's too difficult to remember."

Ji Ran smiled helplessly, called Qin Ge and Hongye and said, "I'll write it for you to copy, and then give a copy to every comrade."

After a while, I got the boxing experience written by Ji Ran himself.Hu Tiehua ran to the corner alone. Although she was not as crazy as Chu Liuxiang, she looked at the sky and laughed, and then played with her left and right hands.

At this time, Xue Yiren came over and said to Ji Ran: "I can see that you have been prepared for a long time. I have already talked about the kung fu with bare hands. What ancient books have you seen about the kung fu on my sword?"

Ji Ran smiled bitterly and said: "It is true, but I don't know if it will be helpful to Master Xue. It is also said that in the Song Dynasty, there was a peerless swordsman named Dugu Sword Demon."

"He once carved on the stone wall of the valley where he lived in seclusion: For more than thirty years, he has been in the rivers and lakes, killing all the enemies and defeating all the heroes. The world is no longer able to resist him. He has no choice but to live in seclusion in a deep valley and make eagles his friends. Woohoo, life To seek a rival but not get one is to be lonely and embarrassed."

"The sword demon left four more swords with writings on the sides of the swords.

"The first one is a sharp sword and it is written: sharp and fierce, invincible. Use it to compete with He Shuoxiong before the weak crown."

"The second sword is the Ziwei soft sword. It was written: Used before the age of 30. It was unlucky to accidentally injure a righteous man, so it was abandoned in a deep valley."

"The third sword is the dark iron heavy sword: the heavy sword has no edge, is ingenious but has no workmanship, and relied on it to dominate the world before the age of 40."

"The fourth is a wooden sword: after the age of 40, you don't stick to things. Plants, trees, bamboo and stones can all be swords. I don't know if this point of view is useful to you, Master Xue."

After hearing this, Xue Yiren, Hua Zhenzhen, Gao Yanan and Mu Daoren all felt enlightened.Even the Huashan disciples brought by Qin Ge and Gao Yanan seemed to be thinking about something.

Taoist Yucha and Taoist Shi looked awkwardly here and there, and finally chose to discuss the knowledge of swords with the swordsmen.

For three days in a row, Hu Tiehua was the first to find Ji Ran and said, "Is the monk who moves the meridians and acupuncture points moving the acupuncture points?"

"I once heard about the extraordinary skill "The Great Compassion of Heaven and Earth Conquering Yin and Yang", which contains the method of rotating the heavens and the earth and moving the acupuncture points. After learning it, you can penetrate the qi and acupoints of the whole body. The internal force reaches everywhere and reaches everywhere, and the true qi is endless. , escape the meridians and go to the acupuncture points, ignoring all the acupoints."

"Pulse interception, capture, restraint techniques. And you can practice all internal skills and perform all external skills. Is it true or false?"

Ji Ran smiled and said: "There is no method to move acupuncture points in a big way, but there is a method to move acupoints in a big way. But it can only move acupoints two or three inches. Do you want to learn it?"

Hu Tiehua hurriedly said: "You must learn, you must learn."

Afterwards, the two found a secluded corner and began to communicate.

Five days later, Xue Yiren called everyone over and said: "The senior sword demon you mentioned, his understanding of swords can be said to be almost as good as the Tao."

"But I have a different point of view. A sword is a weapon for killing enemies, so there are only two results for using a sword, killing or not killing. There are also two types of enemies, one is a single enemy, and the other is a group of enemies. "

"So the purpose of my swordsmanship is to kill the enemy. In the past few days, I have summarized and sorted out my swordsmanship. Finally, I came up with three styles. The first style kills the enemy quickly, the second style kills the enemy with all my strength, and the third style either Either the enemy dies or I die.”

After hearing what Xue Yiren said, everyone who was not "crazy" felt that maybe Xue Yiren was also crazy.

Then Xue Yiren picked up a pen and paper and wrote down the mental methods and movement formulas corresponding to the three sword techniques just mentioned, and then handed them to Ji Ran and said, "You learn what you have learned and pass it on to Xue Bin."

When Ji Ran heard this, she knew that Xue Yi was afraid of being guilty of possessing the jade. If she gave it to Xue Bin directly, she was afraid of causing trouble.

Xue Yiren picked up the blood-clothed sword and said to everyone: "Next, I will use the three sword techniques I just learned."

After finishing speaking, everyone felt as if there was a smell of blood lingering on the tip of their noses, and at the same time a cold and cold feeling lingered for a long time.

Just listen to what Xue Yiren said: "The first move is bloody."

I saw that his movements were swift and weird, and his swords were tricky and fast, almost all of them used sword stabbing tactics, after a few sucks.There were only sores and holes left in place, and the bloody aura slowly dissipated.

Xue Yiren explained: "This is a group attack skill, combined with weird body movements, to quickly kill the enemy. Each sword is aimed at the enemy's fatal position."

After Xue Yiren paused for a moment, he continued with his second move.This time, everyone felt like they were in the coldest winter, and the smell of blood was even stronger, as if they were soaked in blood.I heard in my ears: "Second style, surging blood river."

Everyone suddenly felt that Xue Yiren's sword suddenly emitted a bright red light, and the sound of sneering continued, as if something was erupting.

It was late autumn at this time, and it was already cold at the top of Huashan Mountain, but at this time, everyone on the top of the mountain felt a little colder.Some people with keen senses even had their hairs standing on end, as if they sensed something extremely dangerous.

"This is... sword energy? How is it possible that Senior Xue can emit such sword energy?" Hua Zhenzhen said in shock, as if he saw something extraordinary in his tone.

As a sword practitioner, no one understands the function of sword energy better than him. It is really shocking that Xue Yiren can use sword energy.

"It is indeed sword energy. Amitabha, it is really gratifying for Donor Xue to be able to use sword energy!" Zen Master Sanzang said with his hands clasped together.

The foolish tea master picked up a few fallen leaves and said, "Whether it is true or not, you will know if you take a look." As he spoke, he flicked his fingers slightly, and the fallen leaves suddenly flew up and fell in front of Xue Yiren.

Everyone looked along and saw that Xue Yiren's long sword was pointing at the fallen leaves in front of him being cut away one after another.

If you count carefully, there are exactly 36 of them. In front of each sword, there is a sword energy coming out.Seeing this, everyone no longer had any doubts in their hearts, knowing that the sword Qi used by Xue Yiren was undoubtedly there.

"With such sword energy, even if the strength is slightly weaker, who in the world can stop it?" Hua Feibai sighed among the crowd.

When using sword energy, focus on concentration. Even if the strength is slightly smaller, the power is not necessarily inferior.Xue Yiren can send out 36 sword energy in one move. Even if someone can temporarily block it, how can he follow up the continuous flow of sword energy? This kind of martial arts is really unmatched!
After hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement. The sword technique used by Xue Yiren was already extremely fast and unstoppable. When combined with the sword energy, it was even more unbeatable.

But even so, Xue Yiren had no intention of stopping.

Everyone heard: "Xue Bin, little monk Wu Zhen, watch out. The third style is stained with blood on the skirt of your clothes. Either the enemy's blood stains the skirt of your clothes, or your own blood stains it."

After saying that, Xue Yiren began to practice the swordsmanship he had learned all his life. He seemed to suddenly have some insights and wanted to extract them through this method.

The onlookers didn't know what Xue Yiren was thinking.Although they were a little surprised to see Xue Yiren's power operating to a deep level, they did not pay too much attention.At this time, Ji Ran did have a bad feeling in her heart.

Everyone suddenly felt that as Xue Yiren's sword skills were running, there seemed to be a dangerous intention condensed on the sword, but it was condensed but not released, giving people a strong sense of oppression.When several people felt this, their hearts trembled. They didn't know what kind of move Xue Yiren's third move was, and it required such preparation.

It didn't take long.Xue Yiren has practiced more than 100 moves.The energy and spirit are running at full strength.Even with his current power, he still can't hold it.

The movements of swordsmanship and footwork gradually became less relaxed and natural than before, and became more serious and dignified, showing that he was concentrating all his energy.Since the great achievement of martial arts, this is the first time Xue Yiren has consumed such a huge amount of energy, and it is also the first time he has used his full strength.

Even he himself didn't know how long he could sustain it.

"Look, what is that on Senior Xue's head?" Everyone was watching Xue Yiren's sword skills.Suddenly I heard Qin Gehe exclaimed.

The sound was extremely sudden, with a hint of panic.

Some people were watching the sword skills attentively. When they heard this, they were a little unhappy and blamed Qin Ge for making a fuss and disturbing their understanding of the sword skills.

However, when they followed Qin Ge's prompt and looked at the top of Xue Yiren's head, they were equally surprised. If they hadn't seen enough strange things in the past two days.I'm afraid many people will scream in the same way.

Rao is so.From the top of Mount Huashan, there was also a low cry.Showing everyone's surprise.

"Is this... three flowers gathering at the top?" Taoist Shi said in surprise as he looked at the white air gathering a foot away from Xue Yiren's head.

He is a direct disciple of Master Yu Cha, and he practices Taoist internal skills. When he saw this strange scene, he immediately thought about it.

No wonder he thought this way, it was actually the white air gathering above Xue Yiren's head that, apart from being a little illusory and blurry, looked like a flower about to bloom, which made people have to think of this word.

Master Yucha was extremely surprised when he saw such a wonderful scene. Hearing Taoist Shi's words, he murmured: "Three flowers gathering at the top means that the three flowers of essence, energy and spirit are mixed in one orifice of the entrance, and they can form golden elixirs. Huayang Shen, didn’t you mean that the water vapor on your head manifested? What’s going on?”

I scratched my head and scratched my head for a moment, feeling extremely distressed.

"Master, what you are talking about is the gathering of three flowers in alchemy. Will the gathering of three flowers in martial arts manifest the current situation of Senior Xue?" Mu Taoist asked.He is the most outstanding disciple of Wudang generation, and he also knows a lot about alchemy practice.

Hearing this, Master Yucha's eyes lit up and he said: "Martial arts and alchemy are different. If you say this, it may be possible. However, when essence is transformed into qi, qi is transformed into spirit, and spirit is transformed into emptiness, only when the three are complete can the three Flowers gather at the top, Fellow Daoist Xue has not reached this stage!"

He was happy for a while, but then became troubled again, not knowing how to explain Xue Yiren's current situation.

Xue Yiren was concentrating on practicing his swordsmanship. He didn't hear a word said by the people around him.He was still concentrating on concentrating his energy and spirit and practicing his sword skills.

By this time, Xue Yiren had already practiced dozens of sword techniques. The feeling of fusion between Xue Yiren's heart and the blood-clothed sword in his hand became stronger and stronger, and the energy condensed on the sword was also about to come out.

Sensing this, Xue Yiren shouted loudly: "Blood stained clothes!"

There seemed to be a figure that suddenly flew out of Xue Yiren's body and merged with the Xueyi Sword. The 36 sword energy on the sword also merged into one and struck straight into the void in front of him.

Seeing Xue Yiren's sword energy burst out, everyone's eyes followed.As far as the eye can see, where the sword energy reaches, the clouds on the top of the mountain suddenly move, as if a sword-shaped object condenses out.This sword stretches several feet across and stands on the top of Mount Huashan, which is amazing.

Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked. It was an incredible thing for ordinary people to use sword energy, finger power and other volleying power to reach a distance of one foot.

It is truly astonishing that Xue Yiren's sword energy can affect the cloud energy several feet away.What's even more shocking is that the cloud energy on the top of the mountain seems to be affected by his sword energy, and it condenses into a giant sword. Such a scene is really frightening.

For a moment, everyone stared at this giant sword, wondering what they were thinking.

Hua Zhenzhen, Gao Yanan, Mu Taoren, Xue Bin, Qin Ge, and the female disciple of the Huashan sect suddenly sat cross-legged, seeming to realize something.

When Taoist Shi saw this, a trace of envy flashed in his eyes.When he looked at Mu Taoist, there was a hint of sternness in his eyes.

Master Yucha was slightly surprised at first when he saw this scene. When he saw that Mu Taoren was among them, his surprise turned into surprise and then fear.

Although Ji Ran didn't gain much, she still sat down cross-legged, recalling, organizing, and imprinting every movement of Xue Yiren just now in her mind.

At this time, the wind on the top of the mountain was not strong. Although the giant sword was made of clouds, it still maintained a condensed state. Not only everyone on the top of the mountain saw this, but even Chu Liuxiang, who was playing in the mountain, also saw this.

Although he was far away, Chu Liuxiang had vaguely heard Xue Yiren's loud shout before releasing his sword energy, and he raised his eyes to pay attention to the movement on the top of the mountain.Of course he saw this giant cloud sword several feet long.Seeing such a strange scene, Chu Liuxiang was shocked and seemed to have some realization.

His eyes gradually became clearer, and everything he had done in the past few days came into his mind one by one. The heaven, earth, mountains, rivers, sun, moon and stars, birds and fish, fallen flowers and withered leaves kept appearing, disappearing, and then again in his mind. Appear, disappear again...

When Hu Tiehua heard Xue Yiren yelling, he also turned his eyes away.The huge sword in front of her made Hu Tiehua fall into deep thought for a moment.

After a while, the giant sword made of cloud gas dissipated in the wind.

Only then did everyone come back to their senses and saw Xue Yiren closing his eyes and stroking the sword. None of them disturbed him, but they were just guessing where the giant sword came from.

Some people thought of what Ji Ran said about penetrating heaven and earth and blending into heaven and earth, and they secretly thought: "Could it be that Xue Yi has reached the master level and was just using the power of heaven and earth?" That giant sword was too strange. , everyone can't help but think wildly.
