Chapter 562 Sitting and talking

Then the door opened automatically, and Qian Tong and Xie Mingcheng stood in front of the door.

Qian Tong said with a smile: "Senior Li"

"Well, we are all from the same world, City Lord Qian, you and I can just deal with each other as equals, no need to be polite." Li Ming smiled faintly, then nodded to Xie Mingcheng.

"I've heard of Mr. Xie's reputation a long time ago. It's fate that we can meet here. There's no need to be formal."

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. After all, Li Ming's attitude towards the Demon Sect yesterday was quite interesting. The combat capability of this great master was unquestionable, but his temperament remained to be seen.

Qian Tong was, after all, an old man with white hair, and he felt a little embarrassed to call Li Ming, a handsome young man, "senior".

Fortunately, Li Ming is quite approachable and not condescending.

The three of them sat down. Li Ming poured tea for them and said, "It is by chance that we have met here. City Lord Qian stood up for the people, which shows his character. Mr. Xie's willingness to draw his sword to help is even more rare. He is worthy of the title of Confucian swordsman. Both are the backbone of the righteous path. I will offer tea instead of wine to you two!"

Qian Tong and Xie Mingcheng both solemnly picked up their teacups. The three of them clinked their cups together and drank it all in one gulp. The atmosphere in the room relaxed a bit.

Qian Tongcai said, "I've already got some clues about what Mr. Li asked me to find out."

"Oh?" Li Ming pretended to be excited and said, "Then please ask City Lord Qian to help me solve this problem."

Qian Tong coughed, cleared his throat, and said, "The three kings that Lady Hong mentioned yesterday are the three Wang brothers who were famous five hundred years ago. The Wang family they came from was originally an ordinary martial arts family. Although they had a long history of martial arts, they had never produced a congenital warrior. Their strength was average. During a battle in the martial arts world, they were wiped out by the Huang family. The three brothers were placed in a dry well and barely survived."

"The latter three were left helpless, wandering around and becoming beggars. By chance, they got an opportunity. After disappearing for more than ten years, they reappeared as three innate warriors with considerable strength. They quickly slaughtered the Huang family and avenged the Wang family. However, the three brothers did not form a force to rebuild the Wang family. Instead, they retired and retired from the martial arts world. The matter should have ended there. It was nothing more than a vendetta. However, when the three of them set foot in the martial arts world again, they were already three grandmasters. The world only then realized how mysterious the inheritance they had obtained was. It was actually able to forge three grandmasters. However, at this time, they had become powerful figures, and ordinary villains did not dare to target them."

"Although the three of them inherited the same lineage, each has their own strengths. The eldest is known as the Fire King, his Pure Yang Palm a powerful force so fierce that even thousand-year-old black ice could not stop it. The second is the Sword King, his swordsmanship so masterful that he was ranked ninth among the world's top ten swordsmen in his time. As for the third, he is the Crane King, his light skill, the Black Crane Art, allows him to soar through the air, reaching the sky with extraordinary mystical powers. Each of the three kings possesses unique skills, and they also have a combined attack technique. They once survived a powerful celestial being who intended to seize their inheritance. It was also during that battle that other powerful celestial beings attacked them, completely solidifying their status. Unfortunately, they were born in troubled times, and in the end, their cultivation was undone."

Qian Tong suddenly sighed, his tone full of desolation.

After all, he is the one who can become the leader of a faction. From the clues in recent years, we have already sensed something. He is not an ambitious person. He just wants to guard his own piece of land. There is nothing wrong with this idea. As an innate warrior, he can still defend Sanshan City. But if it is really as he wants, then the world situation is about to undergo a huge change.

This originally peaceful border area is likely to be the first to be invaded by war. When the nest is overturned, all the eggs will be intact. How can his Sanshan City be spared?
"Is that so?" Li Ming nodded.

In fact, after invading Gu Bahuang's mind last night, he knew as much more about the Three Kings as Qian Tong did. It was difficult for Qian Tong. It was already good enough that he could find out all this information overnight. After all, Hong Niang only mentioned the two words "Three Kings".

Xie Mingcheng thought for a moment, then asked.

"Mr. Li, the Three Kings' inheritance is indeed extremely valuable, but that's what someone from the demonic sect said after all, so you can't trust it completely. You need to be more cautious."

Li Ming naturally smiled before saying, "Mr. Xie is right. I have my own plans for this matter, and I, Li, will not be blinded by greed. However, if what Hongniang has reported is true, tonight is my only chance to take the inheritance. I can't afford to think twice. No matter what, I want to give it a try."

Xie Mingcheng opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but when he saw Qian Tong shaking his head slightly at him, his heart sank, and he did not speak to persuade him.

Li Ming could clearly see the attitudes of the two people, but he didn't say much. Instead, he continued to pour tea and then spoke.

"It's a rare opportunity, and I'd like to have a cup of tea and discuss philosophy with you two. What do you think?"

The two looked at each other and said in unison.

"I have my wish, but I don't dare to ask for my ears!"

Li Ming laughed and then said.

"it is good!"

Xie Mingcheng couldn't help but ask, "I heard a while ago that Mr. Li's skills were accidentally acquired from the relics of five predecessors. He combined the martial arts of boxing, kicking, swordsmanship, Buddhism and Taoism, and his kung fu is unfathomable. I wonder if this rumor is true?"

Li Ming nodded and replied, "Indeed, my kung fu is all luck. The wisdom of my predecessors ignited my candle."

Xie Mingcheng asked again, "Yesterday I saw you demonstrate divine swordsmanship that conforms to the principles of Heaven. You even composed a poem to ask me about this. I was so overwhelmed with joy that I couldn't help myself. Could this be the Heavenly Sword?"

Li Ming laughed, used his hand as a knife, and made a casual stroke while speaking.

"Is that right?"

Although it was just a casual move, and not even a trace of energy was used, this stroke seemed like the creation of heaven and earth, with endless changes and mysteries. If it fell into the eyes of ordinary people, it was just a casual move, but the more profound the understanding of martial arts, the more they could figure out endless truths from it.

It was obvious that this scholar-swordsman, a scholar who had entered the Dao through reading, possessed a martial arts realm and comprehension far superior to that of ordinary people. He was stunned by Li Ming's attack, and it took him a long while to recover. In that instant, he saw the birth of heaven and earth, the formation of yin and yang, the separation of clear and turbid. Somehow, the words of Li Ming's song from the previous day suddenly flooded his mind.

“In the beginning of ancient times, who preached the gospel?

The upper and lower are not formed, why test it?

Mingzhao is dark, who can do it to the extreme?
Feng Yiwei is just an image, how can we recognize him?
Bright and dark, but what is the time?
"When Yin and Yang combine, what is the origin and what is the transformation?"

Listening to his murmurs, Li Ming smiled faintly and said, "This is the Heavenly Sword, the essence of which was composed by Senior Song Que. Its principles are profound and its interest is abstruse. I have known it for many years and still cannot answer all my questions."

Xie Mingcheng frowned and said, "Yin and Yang. Yin and Yang, this is called the two principles, like clear and turbid, heaven and earth, male and female, how can it be called three combinations?"

Li Ming pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps all things are born from the blending of yin and yang, or perhaps yin can form things, yang can make things, and heaven can nourish things. When the three energies combine, all things come into being. Of course, I won't consider any great principles between heaven and earth here. I'll just talk about martial arts. In terms of the human body, men are yang on the outside and yin on the inside, while women are yin on the outside and yang on the inside. Nine yin and one yang, nine yang and one yin. This is the physical body, and the primordial spirit is also the same level!"

Li Ming's few words shocked Qian Tong and Xie Mingcheng, because this would be something that many noble families and sects had been pursuing for thousands of years but could not obtain.

The two of them originally thought that it was just a discussion between the three of them, and Li Ming would not throw out many profound remarks. However, as long as it was the words of a great master, and as long as his words were meaningful, they would definitely be helpful to the two of them in their martial arts practice. However, they did not expect that Li Ming would start with such shocking words, the mystery of the primordial spirit, and directly pointing to the supernatural powers!
"In my opinion, the so-called primordial spirit can also be divided into yin and yang. The yin spirit resides in the body and controls the flesh shell, while the yang spirit leaves the body and senses the heaven and earth!" This short sentence can be said to be golden advice.

It is said that a family can pass down thousands of books, but the true teaching can only be expressed in one sentence. There is no doubt that what Li Ming said at this moment is the true teaching.

It is also the result of his insights gained from so many reincarnations, especially in this world, where he sought advice from heaven and earth, and learned from nature to practice the best method of opening up the 365 acupoints. Now he has finally entered the realm of grandmaster, and he can be said to have understood it to the extreme, so he is qualified to say such words.

Why is it that after opening up thirty-six acupoints, the number is very different from the previous ones, and can be called a master, and why is it that after opening up one hundred and eight acupoints, one is considered a grand master?

The secret lies in this, because to become a master, one must open the ancestral orifice, that is, the eyebrow gate, to communicate with heaven and earth, but one is only barely qualified to perceive the Yin God.

After that, he continued to practice, opened more acupoints, and increased his foundation, so that he would have the capital to allow the Yin Spirit to take shape permanently.

In fact, the thirty-six acupoints here are a watershed. When you reach this acupoint, if the accumulation is sufficient and the罡气 is deep, you will naturally be able to control the Yin God.

Or in other words, the Yin Spirit originally exists in the ancestral orifice, but when one's cultivation is insufficient, it cannot be controlled.

The place where the Grandmaster realm is superior to ordinary innate warriors is that he uses his own "consciousness" to control the "yin spirit", thereby gaining the power of comprehensive control over the physical orifices!
Although the control of innate warriors is far superior to that of ordinary people, they cannot achieve absolute control. Only masters can integrate their energy and achieve perfect control, but this is only their own strength.

So although the Grandmaster is superior to the Innate Warrior, he is not yet at the level of crushing the opponent.

But it is different for the Grand Master. In addition to having a profound foundation in the 108 acupoints, the more important thing for the Grand Master is that he begins to control the Yang God!
The Yin Spirit resides in the body, while the Yang Spirit is outside. The Yang Spirit is the bridge between heaven and earth. Once it breaks through the Grandmaster realm, its control over the spiritual energy of heaven and earth will be far beyond, and it will naturally be able to crush those below the Grandmaster level.

Why is the difference in combat power between the supernatural power realm greater than that between the innate realm? In addition to the different combat power effects caused by different supernatural powers, it is also because different acupoints need to be opened to break through supernatural powers and condense supernatural Tao seeds. Some people lack qualifications, so they think about it and decide on the Tao seeds they are going to cultivate early, and only break through some of the acupoints. Then they try every means to condense the Tao seeds, but do not perfect the Yin God and Yang God. Therefore, even if they break through supernatural powers, they are still the weakest among the supernatural powers.

With Li Ming's foundation and vision, he naturally cannot be so short-sighted. If he wants to dominate the world, he naturally has to break through the 365 acupoints and make his Yin and Yang spirits perfect before making any plans.

Moreover, from Li Ming's perspective that transcends the world, perhaps if one can perfect the Yin God and Yang God in the innate realm, or even condense a primordial spirit, then perhaps he will have walked the path of a warrior and laid the foundation for the Xuanmen Immortal Path.

It is very different from the path of a warrior. There is no need to condense the magical power. At this point, perhaps even the physical body can be abandoned, which is equivalent to the Nascent Soul stage among immortal cultivators, and escape from the calamity of physical decay. It's a pity that it is just an idea, and Li Ming is not sure whether it can be realized.

He said a few more words casually, which made Xie Mingcheng and Qian Tong feel like they had found a treasure. They took the opportunity to throw out the questions that they had accumulated over the years, and Li Ming naturally answered them easily. After all, he himself had countless experiences of practicing in the innate realm.

Seeing that the bait was almost ready, Li Ming suddenly changed the subject and asked.

"I'm just curious about the Confucian way of cultivation. It's a rare opportunity to meet Mr. Xie. Could you please help me clear up my confusion?"

Xie Mingcheng was startled at first, then he laughed and said, "Since Mr. Li is interested, I'll tell you two about it."

Then Xie Mingcheng coughed lightly and drank half a cup of tea.

"The Confucian cultivation method is different from others. It focuses on nourishing Qi. This Qi is not true Qi, nor is it Gang Qi, but rather righteous Qi! Through reading and understanding, this kind of righteous Qi will grow in your heart. Before you formally cultivate, this Qi is of little use. Only when you truly come into contact with the Confucian way can you transform it into the true Qi of an ordinary warrior, nourishing your body and even releasing it to injure the enemy. Before this, you are just a weak scholar."

Li Ming asked again after hearing this, "I've indeed heard someone mention this before. While we have many warriors in Great Xia, we also have quite a few scholars. If we could spread the orthodox teachings of Confucianism, and all the scholars in the world could become warriors, wouldn't we be able to create a fifth sacred place in addition to the four great sacred places in no time?"

Xie Mingcheng shook his head and said, "It's not that easy. Although there are many scholars, most of them are bookworms. How many of them can truly cultivate a great and righteous spirit? Moreover, it takes time to transform this spirit into strength. If you first study to cultivate a great and righteous spirit, and then practice the Confucian way, it will take even longer. It's better to practice martial arts directly. Generally speaking, those who can cultivate a great and righteous spirit look down on martial artists, and those who study for the sake of martial arts cannot cultivate a great and righteous spirit. Therefore, although there have always been some Confucian masters over the years, they have never become the fifth greatest holy land in the world."

PS: I posted them together today.

No more at night.
