Chapter 101: The Choice of the Life Instrument

After a long time, Shi Xuan let out a long breath, and his body was covered with a layer of black, smelly liquid. This was a sign of effective body tempering. He used a cleaning technique to clean his body. Shi Xuan felt refreshed, so he started practicing again.

This time, he visualized the Qingfeng Mingyue Zhaoshen Zhenfa. The process was the same. Qingfeng soothed the soul and Mingyue illuminated the soul. The only difference was that Qingfeng brought a trace of wind-like true qi, which was more effective in removing soul impurities. Mingyue drove the internal qi into the essence of the moon like a sweet rain from the sky, and also transformed the Samadhi Divine Wind true qi in it, pouring it on the soul, so that the soul was nourished by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, becoming stronger and stronger. The effect was dozens of times better than the visualization effect during the out-of-body stage.

For a normal Qi-inducing cultivator, after completing the above two steps, he would again draw the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the body. Because the body had been tempered by true qi, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that could be drawn would increase by a trace. This process was repeated until all the internal qi in the body was condensed into true qi, which was one step away from Qi-inducing Xiaocheng. In this process, the body naturally produces internal Qi, and the true Qi is used less. It can only absorb the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth again and combine it with the internal Qi to condense it into true Qi again.

When the body is completely tempered by the true Qi, it automatically absorbs the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth between inhalation and exhalation, and automatically generates Samadhi Divine Wind true Qi, instead of internal Qi, which is the small success of Qi Induction.

As for the great success of Qi Induction, it is the nine transformations of true Qi, turning Qi into liquid. The perfection of Qi Induction is to open up Dantian and the true Qi vortex.

However, for Shi Xuan, before receiving the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth again, there is still a very important thing to practice, that is, to transform Samadhi Divine Wind true Qi into Yin and Yang Qi. This is one of the main contents missing in "The True Explanation of the Divine Wind of the Six Combinations of Heaven and Earth".

Shi Xuan projected his spiritual perception onto the Samadhi Divine Wind true Qi, carefully savored the changes of Yin and Yang in it, and slowly figured it out. One day, two days, ... It took a whole year for Shi Xuan to grasp a trace of mystery. He used the method provided by the "Bao Lu" to entangle the spiritual perception with the Samadhi Divine Wind Qi. At the weakest point of the combination of yin and yang, the secret method was performed. With a "hum", Shi Xuan's mind was empty and his body was shaken. He almost lost control. Fortunately, the "Bao Lu" emphasized control and mastery from the beginning. Shi Xuan barely supported it and continued to use the secret method.

When everything stopped, the green Samadhi Divine Wind Qi in Shi Xuan's meridians had disappeared, replaced by a black and white entangled, but incompatible Qi, which is the Yin and Yang Qi!

After that, when Shi Xuan drew the spiritual energy of heaven and earth again, he could draw a little more wind spiritual energy than before, and in the process of combining the internal energy with the wind spiritual energy, it was affected by the Yin and Yang Qi and directly turned into the Yin and Yang Qi entangled in black and white.

Then, he used the Yin and Yang Qi to temper his body and nourish his soul. If it hadn't been tempered and nourished by the Samadhi Wind Qi, his body really couldn't withstand such fierce Yin and Yang Qi. Fortunately, Shi Xuan followed the "Bao Lu" closely and used the Samadhi Wind Qi to temper his body and nourish his soul.

When the practice came to an end, Shi Xuan used the Yin and Yang Qi in his body and transformed the Yin and Yang Qi into the Samadhi Wind Qi again according to the Yin and Yang combination of the Samadhi Wind Qi he had just realized. After all, at this stage, the Yin and Yang Qi, in addition to being much stronger in tempering the body and nourishing the soul, was inferior to the Samadhi Wind Qi in attack, defense, and magic. It will be Shi Xuan's main means in the Qi-inducing period.

However, because Shi Xuan has realized the transformation method of Yin and Yang Qi and Samadhi Wind Qi, the two can be converted at will.

As time went by, Shi Xuan's speed of refining Qi became faster and faster, because in the later stage, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that the body could bear had greatly increased, the control ability of the soul after being nourished was greatly improved, and the ratio of the true Qi to the internal Qi in the meridians was greatly increased, so refining Qi was a process that was slow at first and then fast.

Counting from the beginning of Shi Xuan's retreat, one day five years later, Shi Xuan slowly opened his eyes in the dark room, his eyes bursting with brilliance, illuminating the whole room, and his body exuded a faint spiritual pressure. After such a long period of retreat, the internal Qi in Shi Xuan's body had all been transformed into Samadhi Divine Wind Qi, or Yin and Yang Qi.

Because Shi Xuan could control the true Qi he cultivated from the beginning, there was no performance of the true Qi being uncontrolled and showing outside, and the spiritual pressure was much lighter than that of normal Qi-inducing cultivators, but as a symbolic feature of this stage, Shi Xuan could only wait until the divine mind and soul merged into the divine soul, and the spiritual perception turned into divine consciousness, before he could completely restrain it.

If a cultivator in the Qi-inducing stage often takes pills containing the corresponding spiritual energy of heaven and earth, such as Fire Spirit Pill, Water Spirit Pill, etc., then it will take about two years for his internal energy to be condensed into true energy. However, if they want to achieve a minor success in Qi-inducing, it will take more than ten years, because their bodies are not tempered enough by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. After all, the pills contain refined and much softer spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

As for Shi Xuan, he did not take a single pill, and it took a lot of time to comprehend the changes of yin and yang. Although his body was well tempered and could absorb more spiritual energy of heaven and earth, it still took five years to successfully condense all his internal energy. But in the same way, Shi Xuan can achieve a minor success in Qi-inducing in a year at most, and he does not need to retreat for this year, and he can just practice daily.

During these five years, Shi Xuan was not always refining his true Qi, because absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is a process that cannot be done quickly or in a hurry, otherwise his body would explode and die. Except for the first year when he realized the changes of yin and yang, the extra time in the next four years was spent on mastering magic tools, refining magic tools, and practicing his innate minor magical powers.

Xiaoyou Qingfeng Dun, Jinlong Armor Spell, Invisibility Spell, Jinren Shenfeng Zhan, Qi Wang Shu, and Yin Yang Eyes are already fifth-level spells, and only need to practice for more than a year to reach the sixth level. Shangqing Hand Pivot Thunder is already a sixth-level spell, and it will take nearly five years to practice to the seventh level. In the Qi Induction Period, the innate minor supernatural powers can generally only be practiced to the sixth level, except for those that already have a grade, which is increased accordingly on the basis of the sixth level.

Because it is in his own cave, Shi Xuan has not tried the power of the attack-type innate minor supernatural powers, but the Jinlong Armor Spell, Invisibility Spell, and Xiaoyou Qingfeng Dun are extraordinary, especially Xiaoyou Qingfeng Dun, which can already ride the wind and fly into the sky, traveling more than 3,000 miles a day. According to Shi Xuan’s understanding, this speed can be ranked in the top ten in the Qi Induction Period, only slightly worse than those Thunder Dun and Light Dun.

Among the magic weapons, the Wanxiang Wuying Sword has 35 layers of restrictions. It only needs a few more months to be perfected in the fourth heaven. It can already be regarded as a sharp and extraordinary flying sword. The Mihun Banner has 37 layers of restrictions. It needs more than half a year to be perfected in the lower layers. When the fourth heaven is perfected, it can directly brush out the souls of the monks in the Out-of-Body Stage and below and imprison them in the banner. After being brushed, the souls of the monks in the Qi Induction Stage may be injured and fall into hallucinations on the spot.

As for the Qianyang Green Lantern, Shi Xuan has mastered 56 layers of restrictions, which is more than the perfection of the sixth heaven. It will take at least five years to master the remaining layers. However, the power is already the first in Shi Xuan's body except for Taoism. Although burning mountains and boiling seas is a bit exaggerated, burning small mountains and boiling large lakes can be regarded as barely comparable.

As for the Broken Jade Art and the Shaoyin Heart Yang False and Real Fire, Shi Xuan also successfully practiced them in seclusion. The Broken Jade Art is a Taoist art that stimulates potential. After successfully practicing, it has not been tried yet. The Shaoyin Heart Yang False and Real Fire is a combination of the Nanming Li Fire contained in a Vermillion Bird feather and the virtual fires such as anger, jealousy, and love cut out in one's own visualization, and then tempered with the heart fire with a secret method, sealed in a mysterious place in the heart, becoming a mysterious fire that can burn reality and soul.

During this retreat, Shi Xuan's other major gain was the tempering of his mind and the change in thinking about this lifestyle. Many cultivators could not pass this level and became crazy and useless people.

After this retreat, Shi Xuan planned to go to the Ziqi Donglai Tower to take a look, because he wanted to see if there were any genius treasures suitable for him to practice the other three Taoist magic skills, and the content of the "Baolu" that was only revealed in the Qi-inducing period - about the refining of the natal magic weapon, which also requires a lot of precious materials.

For cultivators, the only things that can be stored in the Dantian or other acupoints of the body are magic weapons or life instruments. The "Baolu" gives seven kinds of life instruments. You can choose any two to practice. Because compared with normal cultivators, Shi Xuan's yin and yang are still independent of each other, so he can use one to sacrifice a life instrument.

These seven life instruments are: Taiji Diagram, Yin and Yang Bell, Yin and Yang Qi Bottle, Chaos Thunder Mirror, Liangyi Bagua Fairy Clothes, Black and White Double Rings, Du'e Liangyi Sword.

From the perspective of a time traveler, the life instrument such as Taiji Diagram, which sounds very powerful, must be chosen. As for whether it is the same as the Taiji Diagram in the previous life, that is another matter. Anyway, this Taiji Diagram is an attack and defense integrated, mysterious and incomparable magic instrument in the Qi training period.

Another life instrument makes Shi Xuan very difficult to choose.

The functions of Yin and Yang Bell and Taiji Diagram overlap too much, so you can choose not to choose.

The main functions of the black and white double rings are both Yin and Yang Qi Bottle, so you can choose not to choose.

Du'e Liangyi Sword is a flying sword. I already have Wanxiang Wuying Sword, so it seems that I don't need to choose it. However, Wanxiang Wuying Sword requires not only invisible divine iron, but also true method to be refined to become a top-grade magic weapon. Well, I'll wait and see.

Liangyi Bagua Immortal Clothes is a pure self-defense treasure. The Taiji Diagram is enough, so I don't need to choose it.

Chaos Thunder Mirror is a treasure mirror that can emit Chaos Thunder, Taiji Thunder, Yin-Yang Thunder, etc. Unfortunately, these thunders can only be emitted after they become magic weapons. Before, they were only Shenxiao Thirty-Six Thunders and Tiangang Disha One Hundred and Eight Thunders. They are somewhat similar to the sect's magic weapon, Zhutian Shenleijian. I'll wait and see.

Yin-Yang Two-Qi Bottle emits black and white Yin-Yang Qi, which can collect magic weapons and capture enemies. After putting them into the Yin-Yang Two-Qi Bottle, the magic weapon will be activated with all its strength. The enemy will turn into dirty blood in a moment. Of course, the realm of the enemy that can be absorbed is related to the level of sacrifice and refining of the magic weapon itself. And when used in reverse, it will turn the essence of the enemy's dirty blood into waves of nectar, which can be used to heal wounds and moisten things. It is similar to the sheep-fat jade bottle in the legend of the previous life. To be determined

How to choose these three life instruments? Shi Xuan was very entangled and even considered whether to consult his master.

——Sorry, I am busy with many things. I only have this chapter today. I will make up for it after the Spring Festival. Also, friends, which one do you think I should choose?
