Sword from the Immortal Mountain

Chapter 68: Advancement, the Third Realm

The temple master had heard about Chen Jin's story of writing talismans, and subconsciously concluded that it was a Taoist magical power, perhaps even the legendary "immortal magic".

So now, will Chen Jin show off his skills again?

You should take a good look at it, maybe you can learn something.

As for the specific content of the peach blossom poem, that is secondary.

My eyes followed Chen Jin as he dipped his brush in ink and wrote words one by one on the white paper.

When they saw these words, both the temple master and Yun Ning realized clearly that this Mr. Chen was actually a scholar.

Ordinary people simply cannot write such elegant and beautiful characters.

Yun Ning looked at it carefully, opened her red lips and began to read:

"The peach tree is young and tender, its flowers are bright and beautiful; the daughter is getting married, and she is a good match for the family."

"The peach tree is young and tender, and its fruits are abundant; the daughter is getting married, and she is a good wife and a good husband."

"The peach tree is young and lush, its leaves dense and thick; the daughter is getting married, and she is a good wife to her family."

There are twelve sentences, each with four characters, and six of them are almost repeated.

This chapter is not a mainstream poem, but an ancient folk song.

It is written concisely, with beautiful words, and contains a sense of warm joy.

It is indeed a peach blossom poem. Putting it under the old peach tree with flowers in full bloom, it complements the other beautifully and is extremely appropriate.

Between the lines, the master of the temple saw a Taoist light, shining brightly like peach blossoms.

How can this be a poem?

It was clearly a talisman that could make Lao Tao a god instantly, a certificate and an imperial edict.

The abbot took a deep breath and bowed, "I would like to thank Master Chen on behalf of the old peach tree."

Chen Jin smiled faintly and said, "It's just what I wanted to do and what fate brought me to."

The master of the temple would like to mention: there is a predestined relationship between us...

On second thought, if I really said that, then I would be forcing it and would end up making things worse.

He came over immediately, blew dry the ink, carefully folded it into a triangular talisman, then walked over and stuffed it into a hole in the trunk of the old peach tree.

Almost at the same time, the old peach tree sensed the Taoist magic power, and its branches and leaves swayed immediately, and the peach blossoms swayed in unison, all bowing their heads towards Chen Jin, as if they were a person, bowing to express their gratitude.

Seeing this spiritual scene, Yun Min, whose horizons had not yet been opened, opened her mouth in surprise.

They say that there are mountain spirits and wild monsters, but they are actually real.

Looking at the old peach tree, the temple master smiled, which was rare, but his face was wrinkled and his smile was a little weird: "Okay, Aning, you take Xiaomin downstairs to rest."

"Okay, Master."

Yun Ning obeyed the order, packed up his things, and returned to the outer courtyard with Yun Min.

On the way, Yun Min couldn't help but ask, "Third Senior Sister, what did my brother write? Please tell me quickly, I can't read."

Yun Ning then explained it to her word by word.

Yun Min blinked her eyes: "It just wrote peach blossoms, peaches, and leaves?"

Yun Ning smiled and said, "It seems to be about peaches, but it is actually about people. It can be used to describe women."

"woman?"

Yun Min suddenly perked up and asked curiously, "Does my brother want to get married?"

Yun Ning smiled and said, "Perhaps Master Chen meant the peach charms made from old peach tree branches. Peach charms can ward off disasters and bring good luck to the family, so it makes sense."

There are some things that are difficult to say. Chen Jin's performance tonight, drinking and writing poetry, is really completely different from his previous indifferent and cold image.

Tonight, Chen Jin is much more lively in terms of his humanity.

After the two women left, the abbot bowed to Chen Jin and returned to his room to do his daily homework.

People who practice cultivation are not fussy about details and do not care about polite greetings. Too much courtesy may annoy people.

The same is true for Chen Jin.

He returned to his side hall room, without lighting the lights, and it was quiet. Last time, Wangcai was a coachman, following Yun Ning and the others back to Chenze Township, and he stayed in the house on the hillside to look after the house.

There are other reasons for not allowing it to come to Yunshan Temple.

The master of Yunshan Temple doesn't like dogs, so everyone follows suit and hates them.

Normally, monks are very kind to dogs and do not eat dog meat.

However, the master of the temple is an exception. It is said that when he was young, his family was poor and he wandered the streets and was bitten by a vicious dog, so he hated it.

In view of this, Chen Jin simply let Wangcai stay at home to keep the old wolf company.

After all, he came to Yunshan Temple not to usurp the throne, nor to occupy the nest of others.

……

The room was quiet, with moonlight shining in through the window, adding a sense of tranquility.

Chen Jin sat cross-legged on the cushion, practicing his skills and breathing in and out.

I don’t know how long it was, but suddenly, a strange noise was heard.

Cuckoo!
It is like the flow of a mountain spring, and also like the croaking of frogs.

The strange sound came from Chen Jin, from his abdomen.

At this moment, he refined his essence into qi and advanced again, successfully reaching the late stage.

The third realm!
The reason why "Huangting Benjing" is the orthodox method of Xuanmen is that, in addition to its extremely high efficiency, its method is also upright and stable.

In the first stage of laying the foundation, there is no need to do anything unconventional or crazy, just eat and drink normally.

When you have eaten enough and eaten well, you will achieve the state of mind.

There is no need to worry about overeating leading to obesity. As long as refining and excretion are combined, everything will be under control.

Entering the third realm, Chen Jin opened his eyes, his gaze sparkling.

Feeling my body now, the previous frail aura has completely disappeared, and I have gained a heroic spirit.

Very good.

This is an external change in temperament. Internally, the essence and yang condense into the size of an egg. It is not only purer, but also shows signs of liquefaction.

It looks like decocting medicine.

The great medicine is produced in the body and transformed into Qi which enters the meridians, which represents that one is about to enter the second major stage of cultivation: refining Qi into spirit.

The state of this stage connects the previous and the next stages and is extremely crucial and important.

And it will become much more complicated.

This is because the human body has twelve regular meridians and eight extraordinary meridians, which are numerous and complex. Among them, the three gates and nine orifices are mysterious and unfathomable. There is also a saying that there are 36,000 gods, three souls on the left and seven spirits on the right; the body has 1,200 shapes and shadows, 12,000 essences, five internal organs and six bowels, and 24 gods...

The movement of Qi in the meridians and acupoints is like walking on thin ice. Once you take the wrong route, it will lead to various consequences, which can be minor or serious, and can cause injury or death.

Therefore, if one does not perfect the correct martial arts secrets, this stage will be a chasm that cannot be crossed at all.

Most of the people who are into martial arts and want to enter the Taoism through martial arts are stuck here.

However, for Chen Jin, who was reincarnated, it was not a big problem.

The path of the middle dantian to clean the essence and blood has been clearly known, without any error. All you need to do is to proceed step by step and spend time to practice the Zhoutian Gong method.

The Zhoutian can be divided into large and small sizes, but no matter how big or small, it is all linked to time.

For example, the Great Zhoutian Gong can only be performed once a day and is almost constant.

This is different from the stage of refining essence into qi, where as long as the exercises are performed well, you can eat a lot.

……

Although it was expected that I would successfully reach the third level, I was still quite pleased.

"good!"

With a light cry, Chen Jin pointed with his finger.

The Kuixing Wenhuo lamp placed in front of him suddenly lit up, fire rose, and the room was filled with light.
