Chapter 137 Keep Going
Quanzhen Longmen, as the mainstream branch of Quanzhen Taoism, has a profound historical origin. It was once "revived" during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and now it has become one of the most prosperous sects in Taoism.
It is worth mentioning that the founder of Quanzhen Longmen School is called Qiu Chuji, and his master is Wang Chongyang.
This sect pays special attention to inner alchemy cultivation and life cultivation.
To elaborate, the path Lu Yuan took actually fell into the category of inner alchemy.
There are three treasures in the sky, the sun, moon and stars, and people have the essence and spirit of the three treasures.
Taoism regards human essence, Qi and Shen as the three elements of life, called the "Three Treasures".
The practice of inner alchemy is to cultivate these three elements so that they can be condensed and formed into inner alchemy.
However, what Lu Yuan wanted was more comprehensive, a bit like the golden elixir avenue.
After entering the temple, Du Xinling, the temple owner in his fifties, came forward to receive him in person.
There was no need to say any more polite words. Lu Yuan sent three brochures as usual and went straight to the topic after a few sentences, hoping to find someone to discuss with.
Du Xinling, who was well prepared, fought with Lu Yuan for several rounds.
During the process, the key points of Xingqi method and Xinjue of Longmen inner alchemy were easily learned.
It is widely rumored that Quanzhen Longmen focuses on life training and rarely learns other methods.
Therefore, their life skills are more efficient and pure than other sects.
Before coming, Lu Yuan had the same idea, but after obtaining the Tao Xing Qi Diagram, he found that this was not the case.
Although the Xingqi Diagram of Longmen Neiran is good, it is not necessarily better than the Golden Light Curse.
This is a bit strange until it matches the heart technique and the mental state requirements of practice.
Only then did Lu Yuan realize what the problem was.
The focus of training is different!
We often talk about three souls and seven souls. Let’s not talk about the seven souls here, but only mention the three souls.
The heavenly soul (fetal light), the earthly soul (ghost spirit), and the human soul (twin spirits).
Among them, Tianhun is the first soul among the three souls. It represents the main spirit of human beings and the light of life. It originates from the mother body and belongs to the Qi of Taiqing and Yanghe. It has the nature of purity and Taoism and can be understood as being in charge of longevity. and virtue.
The earth soul is the emotional soul among the three souls. It originates from the mixture of yin energy, belongs to the earth, and is closely related to a person's personality and emotional state.
The human soul is the soul of wisdom among the three souls. It originates from the change of Yin Qi, belongs to the five elements, and is closely related to human intelligence and thinking ability.
In fact, you can already see the clues here.
Such as the golden light mantra and other life-improving skills, generally when it comes to training on sexual skills, they are rarely subdivided into targeted categories.
Most of them are unified and balanced, but Longmen's inner alchemy is different. It focuses on tempering the heavenly soul's embryonic light.
Such targeted tempering can condense and purify fetal light, thereby enhancing one's spiritual realm and vitality.
This also involves another method of Quanzhen Longmen.
De Yang Shen!
After all, fetal light is transformed by pure Yang energy.
Moreover, the essence of cultivating Yang Shen is to refine all the yin in the soul and achieve a pure yang without yin, which is called "Yang Shen".
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan took the opportunity to suggest that he wanted to see the methods of Yang Shen, your faction.
Du Xinling was very talkative and started to perform the magic tricks with a smile.
While observing the method, a light blue shadow emerged from above his head and floated in the air.
Lu Yuan frowned slightly as he watched the whole process.
"Master Du Guan, if I remember correctly, practitioners who practice yin are not exhausted and are trance prematurely, which is called the yin spirit. And the yang spirit can come out but not come out. When the yin is exhausted and yang is pure, the yang spirit will be healthy and can guide again. The power of stocking.”
Lu Yuan's words were very direct, even a little rude.
First, he directly pointed out that the other party was just a yin spirit, and then said that the other party's soul was unstable. If he released it so early, wouldn't he cut off his future?
Facing the inquiry, Du Xinling smiled helplessly, and her soul slowly returned to her body.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, I don't know this truth, but how difficult is it for Yang Shen? Some people can't touch the edge of Yang Shen even if they sit and practice for a lifetime. You said, since there is no hope for practice, why should we persist? Why don't we The Yinshen came out to make up for our Quanzhen Dragon Sect’s lack of means to fight against the enemy.”
This reason left Lu Yuan speechless.
"May I ask if there are any cultivators of the Yang God in your sect now?"
Lu Yuan asked casually, but Du Xinling actually nodded.
"Oh?! Can you recommend me?" Lu Yuan became interested.
"Master uncle has not seen guests for many years, I still need to ask for instructions."
"Excuse me!"
Not long after, Du Xinling brought news and the other party agreed to see him.
Lu Yuan went to meet him purely out of curiosity.
After all, it is the Yang God, which is of great significance in Taoist culture. It has the characteristics of "gathering becomes shape, dispersing becomes Qi, hiding and appearing freely, and changing without any direction".
Zhang Boduan said in "Xijiang Moon": "After the treasure talisman descends, it will rise up to the sky, and it will drive the luan chariot and the phoenix chariot steadily."
It can be regarded as the ultimate pursuit of Taoist inner alchemy cultivation of Yang Shen.
Lu Yuan followed Du Xinling to a quiet courtyard. The door to the main room was open, and he saw a skinny old man sitting on a futon inside.
When he walked to the door, Du Xinling bowed and saluted, and Lu Yuan did the same.
"Come in."
The sound was very vague and old, and it should be the sound made by all the teeth falling out.
But this shouldn't be the case. Quanzhen Longmen cultivates both life and life. If one's sex skills have reached the realm of Yangshen, then one's life skills will definitely not be bad. Even if the end is approaching, the teeth should not fall out.
This idea became even more obvious after entering the house and taking a closer look.
The old Taoist was skinny and skinny, but his eyes were as bright as a baby's.
This extreme contrast puzzled Lu Yuan.
"My little friend, you are so good at cultivation!"
The old Taoist has never looked away since Lu Yuan came in, "Round and smooth, the divine light is restrained, and your physique, you have cultivated well, well cultivated!"
The old Taoist praised repeatedly, with envy and regret flashing in his eyes.
"Senior, you are too kind, the state of Yang Shen is the goal of many cultivators, and now you have achieved it, enough to look down on your peers."
The old Taoist shook his head when he heard this, and the next moment, a golden figure floated up from the old Taoist's body, "What do you see?"
Hearing this, Lu Yuan opened the observation method to scan, and the scene in front of him made his pupils shrink slightly, and he said: "Pure Yang is not pure, and the Yin residue is not exhausted."
In other words, the other party's Yang Shen is not pure, not in the most perfect state.
Although it is indeed a Yang Shen, it is still a little early.
But in fact, Lu Yuan saw more than that.
In his field of vision, there seemed to be a suction force in the sky pulling the Taoist's Yang Shen. Through the Yang Shen, he could see that the Taoist was full of fear, unwillingness and regret.
The object of his fear was the sky, the object of his unwillingness was fate, and the direction of his regret was his own practice.
The amount of information in an instant was a bit large, and Lu Yuan's observation method was only opened for a moment and then closed immediately.
This was entirely a reminder from his personal spiritual perception. He had a premonition that if he continued to watch, something bad would happen.
The Taoist's Yang Shen returned to his body again.
"Yes, Chun Yang is not pure. Alas, I am old. If I don't come out for a walk, I am afraid I will not have the last chance," said the Taoist, looking at Lu Yuan with a little meaning, "You are taking a better path than the Taoist, my friend, keep going!"
