Douluo: Starting from the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon

Chapter 28: The Mind is Empty and the Body is Transformed (Part )
"As I have heard, the Buddha told Subhuti that only after the Yijingong is completed can one do this. ... Take it easy for a decade, and never exceed this period. The mind is empty and the body is transformed, and one can go wherever he pleases."

Quietly.

Lin Rong's mind was in meditation, and he entered an ethereal state of mind.

It was an indescribable and mysterious feeling.

The mind is empty, without desires or demands, as if all the changes in the world cannot affect me.

In the past, although there was only a bottleneck between the state of emptiness of mind and self-transformation of body and mind, it took a long time to take even a single step forward.

Because of that bottleneck, he was always like looking at flowers in the fog or the moon in the water. It was clearly within reach, but he could never get it.

Now, with an ethereal mind, the clouds and mist dissipated, the blurry vision became clear, and Lin Rong was finally able to see the true face of Mount Lu.

Outside, in a desolate wilderness.

The driver drove the carriage towards the south.

Suddenly, all the vital energy of heaven and earth within a mile radius began to gather towards the carriage.

Finally, a milky white vortex visible to the naked eye formed above the carriage, and the center of the vortex was right above Lin Rong.

The sudden change made the driver a little overwhelmed and he was in a panic for a while.

“Stop the car!”

Just when the coachman didn't know what to do, the voice of the butler came to his ears.

The driver's habit of obeying orders over the years ensured that he did not lose his composure even in a panic, and he quickly stopped the carriage.

in the carriage.

The essence of heaven and earth has already transformed into tiny liquid droplets.

The mist formed by these small water droplets filled the entire carriage, obscuring the vision to the point where one could not see one's hand in front of one's face.

Even the old butler Yu Yuan needed to use his mental power to sense the young master's location.

Sensing that there was nothing wrong with the young master's condition, the old butler silently said in his heart:

"Did the young master break through the nameless formula he was practicing?"

"It actually caused such a big commotion. Fortunately, this place is deserted. Otherwise, if it was in a busy city, I don't know how much trouble it would cause."

The old butler Yu Yuan knew that Lin Rong was practicing the Xisui Jing, but Lin Rong's explanation to the old butler was something he discovered by accident in the family library.

Originally, after Lin Rong truly recognized the old butler, he also asked the old butler to try to practice the Xisui Jing, but he failed.

It was at this time that Lin Rong remembered that practicing the Xisui Jing required a certain foundation in the Yi Jin Jing.

The reason why he had not practiced the Yi Jin Jing but was able to successfully practice the Xi Sui Jing was because he made use of the mystery of the innate fetal breathing.

At that time, he was still a foetus and his meridians were not yet established, so he did not need to practice the Yi Jin Jing but could practice the Xi Sui Jing.

As for the content of the Yi Jin Jing, only a few words were left in the memory of the previous life, so there was no way for others to practice it.

As the time goes.

The mist in the carriage became thicker and thicker. The old butler was always paying attention to the young master's condition and had no intention of absorbing the vital energy, so that his clothes were soaked.

But Lin Rong is different.

At this moment, his dantian was like a black hole, emitting infinite gravitational force that devoured the vital energy of heaven and earth within an inch of his body.

These liquefied vital energies of heaven and earth had been absorbed into Lin Rong's dantian before they even touched his clothes.

After reaching Dantian, these vital energies are diffused to all the blood, flesh and meridians in the body under the guidance of some force, and the impurities in them are gradually refined and expelled from the body.

The strange phenomenon of heaven and earth lasted for a total of one stick of incense.

After an incense stick of time, the vortex above the carriage slowly dissipated, and soon merged into the world, disappearing without a trace. "Is this the first level of the Marrow Cleansing Sutra: The mind is empty and the body is transformed?"

Lin Rong's consciousness returned to the outside world and he carefully felt his current situation.

"This is the first time I've felt so comfortable since I left my mother's womb."

"My physical fitness has improved, my mental strength has increased, and even my soul power has increased by two levels, reaching level twenty-five."

The first level of the Xisui Sutra: the mind is empty and the body is transformed.

After a practitioner reaches this level, he can actively enter a state of ethereal mind.

In this state, no external forces can interfere with the practitioner's state of mind.

Practitioners themselves can also change freely and switch their emotions between joy, anger, sorrow, happiness and other emotions in an instant.

After experiencing it for a moment, Lin Rong exited the state of ethereal mind. He suddenly felt a little reluctant and wanted to enter the state of ethereal mind again to experience that mysterious feeling.

This is greedy Zen!

After experiencing the joy of spiritual practice, you cannot stop yourself and want to be in that joy all the time.

Before Lin Rong could suppress this thought in his mind, another stronger emotion took over.

Lin Rong almost instinctively held his breath to avoid smelling the extremely stench on his body.

"Oh my god, I have been practicing the Marrow Cleansing Sutra since my mother's womb, and I can still experience marrow cleansing and hair removal."

At this moment, Lin Rong's whole body was covered with sticky black stains, and the sticky feeling made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the carriage was big enough, so he took out the wooden barrel for bathing from his soul guide, filled it with drinking water, and jumped in to wash the stains on his body without caring that the water had not been heated yet.

After changing five buckets of water and cleaning for half an hour.

Lin Rong finally felt that she was clean again.

After taking the clothes handed over by the old housekeeper and putting them on, Lin Rong leaned on the window sill and looked back.

During the half hour that he was bathing, the carriage had already traveled a long distance.

Although Lin Rong didn't know how big a fuss his breakthrough had caused, it was definitely not small.

The range in which the vital energy of heaven and earth is drawn is only one mile in radius, but the strange phenomena of heaven and earth formed can be seen within a radius of several miles.

The strange phenomenon in heaven and earth lasted for a stick of incense, although during this period the old butler did not have the mental power to detect the presence of outsiders around.

But being careful and cautious in everything you do will never go wrong.

Therefore, after the strange phenomenon in heaven and earth ended, the coachman received an order and drove the carriage away from that place quickly.

"This can be considered a blessing in disguise!"

“If I were to break through the realm of the Xisui Sutra in Tiandou City, the commotion that would be created would make people think that some peerless treasure had been born.”

"It seems that when I break through the next level of the Washing Marrow Sutra in the future, before I have enough confidence, I should find a secret place to break through."

“I just don’t know how long it will take for me to practice the Washing Marrow Sutra to the level of Perfect Enlightenment after I break through the state of Self-Transformation of the Mind and Body this time.”

It is recorded in the Essentials of the Xisui Jing.

After a practitioner has cultivated to the first realm, he will soon be able to successfully cultivate to the second realm as well.

The third and fourth levels are really difficult.

But Lin Rong was skeptical about this. It took him nearly eight years to reach the first realm. God knows how long the "soon" recorded in the essentials actually meant.
