Text Chapter 1348 Differences Between Ancient and Modern Exercises
Li Yao once had in-depth communication with Su Changfa, a cultivator of immortals, and learned some experience of the real human empire in developing the ruins of the wild.
Most of the time, the excavators of later generations are not as lucky as the Xingyao Federation, and they can unearth an intact "Kunlun" all at once.
In hundreds of thousands of years of vicissitudes and vicissitudes, most of the relics have actually been repeatedly excavated dozens of times by the predecessors.
Excavating the remains of ancient civilizations is actually somewhat similar to tomb robbery. When a tomb robber opens an ancient tomb tens of thousands of years ago, what he is most likely to find is not an antique collection, but the excrement and urine left by his colleagues hundreds of years ago.
The same is true of this cave.
Perhaps hundreds of thousands of years ago, there used to be a Pangu or Nuwa clan's magical treasure warehouse, spar base, emergency shelter, etc. in the ground here.
However, after the Pangu and Nuwa civilizations were annihilated and humanity rose, many cultivators discovered this place one after another and developed most of the prehistoric ruins.
Unlike tomb robbers, the vast majority of cultivators don't take things and run away, but take this place as their own and develop it into a cave.
Because the natural rift valley landform here is conducive to the stagnation of aura, forming a very unique natural magnetic field.
In addition, the big river running straight down from the depths of the mountains brought out all kinds of metal ions in the spiritual mines deep in the mountains, making the air here unique and extremely helpful for cultivation.
What's more, it is located in a remote place, and there are big trees covering the sky above the rift valley, which not only blocks the line of sight, but also makes it difficult for the spiritual fluctuations inside to escape. It is an excellent natural camouflage.
Hiding in this small "Cave Heaven Paradise" for cultivation, if it wasn't by chance, it would be extremely difficult to find.
For tens of thousands of years, when countless senior cultivators developed this cave and consumed the Pangu civilization inheritance inside, they also left a large number of their own cultivation notes, exercises and supernatural powers, and even flying sword magic weapons.
As the years went by and the time passed, it seemed that this cave was extremely rare.
When Master Vulture found this cave, there were actually very few remains of the Pangu civilization in the cave, only a few huge bones of the Pangu clan and half a huge gauntlet remained.
However, it was he who found more than a dozen supernatural power books left by the predecessors, practice notes, and a large number of refining materials.
Master Vulture cited these things as treasures, and has been living here in seclusion. While practicing the skills and supernatural powers left by the predecessors, he used the last bit of the Pangu clan's battle armor to refine his own demon sword.
It's a pity that most of the transcripts left by him are for cultivation, and there are no words about his life and the scenery of this place.
From these words, Li Yao can only tell that he has lived here in seclusion for at least fifty or sixty years, and he has practiced the domineering supernatural powers left by his predecessors from four or five sects. Demon sword, and his goal is to refine a total of ninety-nine eighty-one demon swords, and then travel out of the mountains and shake the world.
It's a pity that Li Yao, an inexplicable alien soul, beat him to death before his ambition was fulfilled!
Li Yao searched according to the picture, arranged all the exercises and supernatural powers that were treasured in the cave, and searched carefully.
He is not very interested in these legendary "peerless supernatural powers".
After devouring Ou Yezi's memory fragments, Li Yao gained the ability to open the "Heavenly Refining Pagoda" of the Hundred Refining Sect of the Ancient Cultivation World at will.
In the Tianlian Pagoda, there are a lot of magical powers and secret books exchanged by Bailianzong with various magical weapons and various sects.
Li Yao is no stranger to ancient classics, and he followed Ou Yezi's memory and practiced many ancient miraculous skills, so he didn't find it unusual.
In the modern theory of cultivation, the importance of "peerless supernatural powers" has plummeted compared to the medieval world of cultivation.
As the saying goes, "what is learned on paper will eventually become superficial, and you will never know that this matter must be practiced", in the eyes of modern practitioners, "gongfa classics" are nothing more than "textbooks".
Memorizing all the Four Books and Five Classics thoroughly does not mean that you are a "learned Confucian".
It is impossible to imprint all the theoretical works compiled by contemporary masters such as "Economics", "Accounting", "Finance" and "Stock Investment Theory" in the university within a year and a half. become a billionaire.
How can it be such a good thing to get a jade slip, a few volumes of ancient books, find a cave to retreat for decades, and come out as an invincible master?
The so-called "extraordinary skills" are just stepping stones, which are used to lay the foundation. Even if the foundation is extremely solid and you can enter the room, there is still a long way to go!
What's more, from the perspective of today's people, even according to the "textbook" standard, the supernatural powers and secret methods of the ancient Xiu era are not qualified.
On the one hand, Gu Xiu couldn't get rid of the myths about gods and demons, and they were often "worshiping the ancients". They believed that the older the better, the more authentic the better. Probably even the ancient and powerful chamber pots are better than those of today's monks. Feijian is more powerful.
Under the shackles of advocating the past and belittling the present, they firmly believe in every word in the ancient classics. They only know how to follow the example, but do not understand the principle of advancing with the times. up.
Anything, once it involves psychology and metaphysics, there is no reason to say that all ancient supernatural powers are good. If the power cannot be exerted, it is not because there is a problem with the supernatural power itself, but because I have not practiced it well. Every single hair is practiced according to the pattern and path in the classics, which is also the reason for my "not sincere heart".
If you think so, how can you make progress?
On the other hand, Gu Xiu has the problem of cherishing his broom and building a car behind closed doors. When he gets an ancient classic, he treats it as a rare treasure in the world, lest others will steal it from him and rob him.
Therefore, they kept the news secret, and even found an inaccessible place to hide their heads and show their tails to "retreat and practice".
As everyone knows, all the knowledge and theories in the world come from the mutual exchange between people. Only by learning from each other's strengths and learning from each other can sparks of wisdom be collided, and only then can the merits of the exercises be verified and its defects found.
I don’t communicate with others, and I don’t have a systematic theoretical discussion environment, so I go to the deep mountains, old forests, underground caves, and overseas islands to practice stupidly. ****, some minor insanity and hallucinations are regarded as "immortal enlightenment", "suhui awakening", plus all kinds of delusions and three ways, mysterious and mysterious, swollen face and fat man's nonsense, It became a volume of "Practice Notes" and "True Explanation of Supernatural Powers".
If this kind of thing is buried in the ground for tens of thousands of years, and is obtained by later generations of monks, it will become a new "ancient supernatural power", and it will be worshiped by future generations without any doubt.
This vicious cycle has been going on for tens of thousands of years, and most of the supernatural powers that have been handed down are full of loopholes and absurdities from the perspective of today's people. In many cases, they are not as useful as the radio gymnastics of the Federation's primary and secondary schools.
Don't underestimate radio gymnastics. This thing gathers the wisdom of all martial arts masters and medical experts in the entire Federation, and captures the essence of hundreds of ancient fighting techniques. It is polished one by one and used to consolidate the foundation and activate it. Human growth cells, no better!
Master Vulture, as well as the senior Gu Xiu who occupied this cave for tens of thousands of years, are not only the victims of the cultivation system that Li Yao just thought of, but they also unknowingly become the harm of this system By.
Li Yao carefully browsed through all the classics of exercises they left behind. It can't be said that there is no sparkle at all, but some essences are covered by a lot of dross.
Cultivated according to this method, just like Master Vulture's performance just now, at first glance it looks serious, but it is full of unnecessary superfluous movements, which cannot withstand the tempering of real fire.
In a word, compared with the modern cultivation system, the biggest problem with the ancient cultivation system is that it is not professional!
But now, Li Yao has to sharpen his guns and practice these "unprofessional" ancient supernatural powers a little bit.
He is a high-level expert in the Nascent Soul Stage, and he has practiced many ancient supernatural powers through Ou Yezi's memory fragments. Besides, he doesn't really want to learn these supernatural powers, but to simulate the sound and light characteristics of them when they are used. There is no difficulty.
Li Yao did this for one purpose, of course, and that was to borrow the identity of this unlucky "Master Vulture".
Li Yao's ultimate goal is to break into the core ruling circle of this world, and closely observe the temperament, standpoint, and social operation mechanism of the top experts in this world, so as to analyze whether the other party has the possibility of forming an alliance or even merging.
Even if an alliance cannot be formed, as long as there is an opportunity to hire a team of Jindan, Nascent Soul or even higher-level monks from this world to form the overseas legion of the Federation of Stars, it is also a good thing.
Even if he can't even do this, then he absolutely can't let the real human empire hire the Jindan, Nascent Soul and even Huashen from this world.
To break into the core circle of this world and exert a certain influence, then the identity of a Nascent Soul is definitely indispensable.
If it's just foundation building and alchemy, those Nascent Soul monsters, who would listen to him patiently?
Yuanying is not a dog's tail grass in the field, and it is impossible for him to emerge for no reason. If he is a "brand new Yuanying" in the cultivation world, there will always be a chance to be questioned about his master's roots, family inheritance, etc. These are extremely difficult to forge.
This unlucky "Master Vulture" has a pretty good identity.
First of all, he is a barbarian monk, so after going to the Central Plains, he is not familiar with the customs of the Central Plains, does not know the rules and principles of the mainstream cultivation world, and even has a strange accent, which can all be explained.
Secondly, this unlucky ghost has been practicing here for at least fifty or sixty years, and from the few words he left behind, in order not to let others suspect his whereabouts, he even released before the retreat that he had "died suddenly and passed away." death" news.
It is perfectly normal for such an old monster to come back out of the arena and keep his identity a little bit secret. (To be continued.)
