Volume 1 Linglong Case Chapter 72 Asking for Advice
Boom~!
Hundreds of meters in the air, Lin Qianxing's true energy surged throughout his body, and he instantly transformed into a sixty-meter-tall supreme saint image.
The body of the Supreme Dharmakāya was shaped based on Lin Qianxing himself. In theory, the Dharmakāya body could do everything that he himself could do.
At this time, Lin Qianxing slightly stretched out his hand, and the Supreme Saint Dharma Image also stretched out his right arm, and a twenty-foot-long purple-gold sword appeared in his palm.
Immediately, Lin Qianxing recalled some unhappy things in his heart, and anger arose. The face of the Supreme Saint Dharma Image also became ferocious and angry.
“Kill~!”
With a loud shout, the purple-gold sword was swung out, and the terrifying blade light extended in front of the sword, with unparalleled power.
Boom~!
The air vibrated and the air waves rolled where the sword fell.
The Dharmakāya's expression became even more ferocious, and Lin Qianxing took the opportunity to slash with the second knife.
Boom~!
Boom~!
Boom~!
…
The Dharmakāya body was more convenient than Lin Qianxing's own body. With each slash of the sword, the blade light became stronger and stronger, and the anger mixed in it also manifested as if it were real.
At this time, the image of the Supreme Saint had already shown a red and ferocious face, which was the manifestation of Lin Qianxing's anger.
With each swing of the sword, Lin Qianxing's anger accumulated to the extreme.
At this moment, he raised the purple-gold sword in his hand high, and a true sword light more than two hundred meters long condensed, and it chopped down suddenly with anger and pressure.
Boom boom boom~!
The knife fell, the clouds surged, and the howling wind rushed into the distance. Sand and rocks flew across the ground hundreds of meters away, and the surrounding grass and trees leaned to the east and west, as if they had suffered severe destruction.
Lin Qianxing exited the Dharma state, his expression became somewhat listless, and his entire body entered the sage mode, which was caused by excessive mental consumption.
He had slashed out a total of twenty-one times just now, and the last one was so powerful that he almost couldn't control it.
Compared to using the power of the physical body and blood, it is indeed more suitable to use the martial art "Nine Slashes of Fury" in the Dharma state.
But his spirit was inferior to his internal strength. After these twenty-one strikes, his Dharma image could be maintained, but his own spirit could not hold on first.
So for now, these twenty-one cuts are his limit.
Of course, even if there are only twenty-one swords, its power is already stronger than his Five Elements Flying Knives.
However, Lin Qianxing felt that this sword technique would not have much significance in actual combat.
Normally, when fighting with beings of the same level or stronger, he should not be allowed to use these twenty-one swords.
And if the person was weaker than him, he wouldn't need to go to great lengths to use these twenty-one strikes to chop the person.
So this martial art is relatively useless.
But Lin Qianxing thought it was normal. Even if the imperial court had good things, they would not give them out so easily. The fact that he could get this martial art relatively easily in the Monster Catching Division of Yunzhou proved that the quality of this thing would definitely not be very high.
But this does not mean that this martial art is useless to Lin Qianxing.
At least its martial arts ideas are worth learning from, allowing Lin Qianxing to now have a preliminary understanding of how to incorporate his own emotions into the moves.
In this way, Lin Qianxing should be able to create martial arts that reflect artistic conception in the future.
…
The Zhou Mansion Villa.
Lin Qianxing came to Zhou Quanhai again, carrying two huge sweetfish.
At this time, Zhou Quanhai was doing horse stance to move Qi and blood to cleanse his bone marrow. Lin Qianxing could even hear the sound of the surging Qi and blood moving in his body.
He casually handed the fish to Zhou Quanhai's maid and Lin Qianxing just watched from the side.
After a while, Zhou Quanhai stopped practicing and looked at Lin Qianxing and asked, " What is the reason for you to come here this time, fellow Taoist?"
Although he still had no expression on his face, Lin Qianxing could feel that Zhou Quanhai's attitude towards him had changed significantly and he was no longer as repulsive as before.
It was obvious that he accepted my kindness in venting his anger for him last time.
"Brother Zhou, we have known each other for such a long time. Wouldn't it be strange to call each other fellow Taoists?" Lin Qianxing said, "My last name is Lin and my given name is Qianxing. You can just call me by my first name or Brother Lin."
Zhou Quanhai looked at the mask on Lin Qianxing's face and said, "Brother Lin, isn't it time to take off your mask? It's been so long, and I still haven't seen your true face!"
"My predecessor caused me some troubles. I have been cautious before. Please forgive me, Brother Zhou." While Lin Qianxing was speaking, he took off the iron mask on his face, revealing his true appearance.
Now he can show his face to others. He had been hiding his true colors before because he was worried that Zhou Quanhai might have done something wrong. Now that both parties have had a preliminary exchange and can further deepen their friendship, it is okay for him to show his face to show his sincerity.
"Haha~!" Zhou Quanhai couldn't help but smile when he saw Lin Qianxing's true face.
"Brother Zhou, what are you laughing at?" Lin Qianxing asked puzzledly.
"I thought such a beautiful face only existed on women, but I didn't expect that you, Brother Lin, also have such a face..." Zhou Quanhai teased.
Lin Qianxing's expression turned slightly embarrassed. His body looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old. At that time, he did look rather immature. In addition, he obtained a new character template, and his skin became extremely delicate due to the nourishment of the Changchun true essence in his body.
Today, it is not an exaggeration to call him “the young man with a jade face”.
However, Lin Qianxing has always been quite disgusted with pretty boys, so he actually doesn't like his current situation very much.
But it's a good thing that both sides can joke around, at least it proves that their relationship is no longer as stiff as before.
"Ahem! I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Brother Zhou." Lin Qianxing coughed and changed the subject, "I offended you in a hurry last time. I hope Brother Zhou won't mind it."
"I should thank you for your help, Brother Lin. Although my cousin has not done anything evil, he has a rampant temper and often gives me a headache. After you taught him a lesson, Brother Lin, he now avoids me when he sees me." Zhou Quanhai said with a smile.
After a brief exchange of greetings, Lin Qianxing finally stated the purpose of his visit.
"By the way, Brother Zhou, I have come into contact with the practice of Qigong practitioners before, and I am a little confused about the matter of opening up the Purple Mansion Sea of Consciousness and laying the foundation. I wonder if you have read about this?" Lin Qianxing asked.
"I also practice Qigong, so I know." Zhou Quanhai nodded and explained to Lin Qianxing: "The so-called opening up of the Purple Mansion Sea of Consciousness is actually not an appropriate description, because the Purple Mansion Sea of Consciousness has existed deep in the soul from the beginning. To say it is opening up is actually more like opening a door, allowing you to sense and use the sea of consciousness..."
Lin Qianxing nodded repeatedly and had a general understanding in his mind. He also had a preliminary grasp of the matter of opening up the sea of consciousness.
After Zhou Quanhai explained the matter of opening up the sea of consciousness, Lin Qianxing asked again: "Brother Zhou, in the practice of the Unity Realm, what is the fusion of the soul and the body like?"
"I'm actually a little unsure about this step of cultivation." Zhou Quanhai said, "According to my experience in cultivation in my previous life, the soul and the body each performed their own functions and basically never merged into one. However, the martial artists in this world have found a new way and integrated the soul and the body together, taking a new path. I can't judge the advantages and disadvantages of this path compared to other paths, but from my point of view, if a martial artist chooses to merge the soul and the body, it will definitely have more advantages than disadvantages."
"What do you mean?" Lin Qianxing asked.
Zhou Quanhai said: "After the soul merged into the body, although the soul can no longer leave the body, it directly makes up for the shortcomings of the soul and the body. The soul has substance, and the body has spirituality. With the complementarity, it can even be said that there is no such thing as a short board.
Moreover, when the fusion of body and soul reaches a certain degree, the martial artist will have almost no fatal weaknesses in the absolute sense.
According to my deduction, if you follow this path to the end, you will even be able to be reborn by dripping blood without relying on any magical powers. Your survivability will be so strong that it is unimaginable.
In addition, according to my speculation, at the end of this road, one should be able to carry the Dao directly in the flesh, without any comprehension, to engrave the Dao on the body. At that time, every move will be full of the power of the Dao. In theory, compared with practitioners who have comprehended the Dao, one will have some advantages in many areas.
Of course, the disadvantages are also obvious. That is, after the soul and the body are united, when improving the cultivation, it is necessary to improve the body and the soul at the same time, which will consume more resources. It is not like other paths, where you can improve the soul or the body first, and then use the powerful body to drive the soul, or the soul to drive the body to improve. Therefore, the cultivation speed of this path is at least half slower..."
Lin Qianxing didn't quite understand what Zhou Quanhai was talking about, such as rebirth by a drop of blood or the body carrying the avenue.
But he was able to analyze the pros and cons from Zhou Quanhai's words .
According to Zhou Quanhai, after practicing this path, improving one's cultivation means improving both the physical body and the soul together. It will consume more resources and the speed of practice will be slower, but the advantage is that there are no shortcomings and the upper limit of development is very high.
It seems that this path of martial arts cultivation is indeed not bad.
But then again, apart from practicing Qi and internal strength, it seems that this is the only way he can get involved?
Moreover, he just wanted to ask Zhou Quanhai for some tips on how to merge the soul and the body, but Zhou Quanhai gave him a lot of stuff analyzing the pros and cons of the martial arts path.
It seems that the two sides are completely on different channels.
Lin Qianxing felt like he had asked a university professor what one plus one equals. He originally just wanted to know the answer, which was two, but the university professor felt that the question couldn't be that simple, so he directly told him how to use advanced mathematics to prove the truth of why one plus one equals two.
"Brother Zhou, I almost understand what you said. Can you tell me how to cultivate the first level of the state of unity?" Lin Qianxing asked after Zhou Quanhai stopped.
Zhou Quanhai looked at Lin Qianxing with a puzzled look, which roughly meant: Why do you need to ask such a simple question? Are you kidding me?
However, Lin Qianxing looked at Zhou Quanhai with a serious expression, indicating that he just wanted to know the answer to this question.
Finally Zhou Quanhai spoke up. He said, "This is not difficult. Listen carefully. Be extremely empty, be extremely quiet, let your mind sink into your spirit, and let your soul merge into your body..."
Lin Qianxing listened and nodded secretly in his heart.
With three character templates, his comprehension was actually not bad. After reading the practice methods in "Da Yu Wu Dian", he actually had some understanding. But the problem was that this step of practice was too critical. He was unsure about some aspects during the practice and was worried that he had taken the wrong path, so he had to find Zhou Quanhai for confirmation.
After hearing the details of cultivation explained by Zhou Quanhai, I finally had a general understanding.
