Chapter 548 The Silent Grand Masters

In the next half month, Li Yuan had a rare moment of leisure.

He gets up at sunrise and rests at sunset. During the day, he either goes to look for the Dragon Xixiang, tastes tea at Nie Xian Mountain and talks about Taoism, or goes to the Jing Shuhu to share his experience in refining treasures. In the evening, he spends most of his time instructing the two little guys.

Practice martial arts.

In the evening, change your mind, visualize, and listen to sounds.

Life is regular but relaxing, unlike before, practicing day and night.

But this is not a sign of laziness, but a preparation for the challenge.

"All kinds of martial arts lead to the same goal through different paths. What they seek is nothing more than essence, energy and spirit. The key to entering the Tao lies in 'spirit'."

"The human spirit is as young as the rising sun, in middle age as the red sun in the sky, and in old age as the sun sets over the west mountain... The sun rises and sets, the moon sets and the moon rises. The realm of the unity of heaven and man requires closeness to heaven and earth."

"Sooth your spirit, be in harmony with nature, and feel your spirit..."

…

At the edge of the cliff in the evening, Li Yuan watched the setting sun on the horizon, his mind calm, and he couldn't help but think about Lao Longtou and Nie Laodao's understanding of entering the Tao.

Li Yuan has long memorized the four steps of entering the Tao: the soul leaves the body, the energy and blood unite, the body fuses and changes the body, and the body and soul unite. Li Yuan has long memorized it, but he is still thinking about it.

"When the sun rises, your heart will be full of energy. When night falls, your mood will be calm... Only by observing your heart quietly and letting it take its course can you feel the soul."

Li Yuan half-closed his eyes, his expression naturally three-dimensional, overlooking the mountain scenery:

"It's not difficult for me to enter the Tao. My talent is not in vain. My talent is at the level of a star. It is indeed extraordinary."

Buzz~

Li Yuan closed his eyes, and his soul left his body.

Feeling the surrounding heaven and earth with the spirit body is completely different from the physical body. The spirit spirit is more sensitive. Cold wind, snow, sunset, and even dead leaves and grass are all alive.

When he looked at his body, he could see the blood and Qi flowing under the skin, the jade-like skeleton, and the trembling internal organs.

He has mastered the first three steps of the four passes of the Tao. In the past half month, what he has been pondering is the fourth step, the unity of body and spirit.

This step is also where most would-be masters fail in their attempt to enter the Tao.

When the body and spirit are united, the spirit and soul will inevitably be burned by blood and true energy, and burned by one's own energy and blood. This may seem unbelievable, but it does exist.

"Before the unity of the three elements, the soul cannot leave the body for a long time, and will be injured by the blood and energy. This is like a ghost in the legend, which cannot withstand the energy and blood of strangers..."

Talking to himself in his heart, Li Yuan's soul returned to his body.

He did not open his eyes, but concentrated on sensing himself. In the center of his eyebrows, the Niwan Palace was glowing with dim light, and nine acupoints were surrounding the soul like stars.

Under his concentration.

There are all kinds of lights in his body.

Qi and blood, Qi, bones, internal organs, and acupoints.

"Without the various secret techniques of the Evil God Cult, it would be really difficult to practice the method of worshiping gods. No wonder the orthodox methods of worshiping gods cannot be passed down. The threshold is too high..."

Li Yuan muttered to himself, and controlled all the bone ornaments one by one. With his suddenly heightened sense of perception, he 'saw' the acupuncture points in his body that seemed to be there or not.

Gray and dark.

Acupoints exist in subtle places, but they are not fixed. Li Yuan has sensed them many times in the past few days, but every time he senses them, their positions will change.

This is why acupuncture points are difficult to find.

"Looking for gods, seeing gods, describing gods, worshiping gods, praying for gods, transforming gods... The man who created the method of worshiping gods is also an amazing genius."

Feeling the acupuncture points in his body, Li Yuan's understanding of the method of worshiping gods reached a higher level.

The acupoints are hidden in the body, so they need to be found and seen. The process of lighting them up with Qi, blood and true Qi can be said to be tracing, or it can be said to be concentration.

"Among all the acupoints, Niwan Jiugong is the most important. I achieved this first, and other acupoints will gradually light up..."

Li Yuan was not in a hurry to light up his acupoints. Before entering the Dao Pass, he needed to maintain the harmony and purity of his blood and true energy.

During this period of time, he only felt it occasionally, and the only thing he practiced was Niwan Jiugong.

Other acupoints can store true energy, while the Nine Palaces of Niwan can accommodate the spirit. He and Long Xixiang had an in-depth discussion and found that the essence of the method of worshiping gods is actually these nine acupoints.

"It is said that those who practice the method of worshiping gods to a very high level can cultivate the nine spiritual aspects according to the nine palaces of Niwan..."

At a certain moment, Li Yuan seemed to realize something. When he opened his eyes, he saw a purple-red stream of light rising from the bottom of the mountain and falling on the cliff in a flash. It was Qin Yun who was holding Chi Lian.

"Senior Qin."

Li Yuan stood up to greet him.

Chi Lian was thrown to the ground with a 'pop' sound, and the purple mist rising around Qin Yun enveloped Li Yuan.

Li Yuan glanced at Chi Lian without resisting, and then entered Qin Yun's divine realm.

Woohoo~

It was already dark in the divine realm, with a bright moon hanging high and stars all around.

"I found that road."

Qin Yun's face was as dark as water and he was in a very bad mood:

"That road seemed so close, but I spent half a month unable to set foot on it. When I returned, I was surprised to find that I hadn't moved a step."

"really……"

Li Yuan's heart also sank.

"It seems that only by holding the token of Bafang Temple can we set foot on the road to Tianshiyuan."

Qin Yun frowned and asked Li Yuan how he obtained the token.

Li Yuan concealed the fact that he climbed the mountain one step, only saying that it was a reward from the Bafang Temple after climbing a hundred steps.

"Climbing a hundred steps?"

Qin Yun's face softened slightly. If the ten thousand-step mountain road can only climb a hundred steps, it shouldn't be difficult.

"Do you always want to try it?"

Li Yuan's heart moved and he took out the token.

He can also get an extra share of the mountain-climbing rewards for those who use his token to enter the temple. In his opinion, how can this senior Qin climb thousands of steps?

"No need, I still need to take Chi Lian with me. It's not easy to catch outsiders today."

Qin Yun waved his hand and refused.

He made two attempts, but only managed to catch one Chi Lian. The old turtle's shell was extremely hard and it would escape from its shell. He was half a beat too slow and had no time to catch it.

"Then you want to perform a sacrifice?"

Li Yuan put away the token with some regret.

"I have prepared everything needed for the sacrifice."

Qin Yun nodded: "I'm going to the temple today."

"So urgent?"

Li Yuan could feel the urgency of Qin Yun.

"Time waits for us."

Qin Yun sighed and took out a map from his arms. It was the one written by Li Yuan, but many more marked points were added:

"I have added a few touches, mainly some tricky places. You should be careful when walking in the secluded realm. Some of them are quite tricky."

"Thank you, senior."

Li Yuan put away the map.

Phew~

Qin Yun waved his hand and left the divine realm without stopping. He picked up Chi Lian and left. Only when he was in the air did he hear a voice:

"I'll keep those two people. It doesn't matter whether the big man is killed or kept. Don't touch the little man!"

"Come and go in a hurry."

Li Yuan also sighed. He missed the knowledge ball a lot. If the ball wasn't bound, he would have asked for it to have a look.

It's a pity that the general knowledge ball is a child of the Taixu God Realm. One person has one ball, and the owner cannot be changed even if he dies.

"My general knowledge ball..."

The little female dragon's sad and annoyed voice sounded: "What a shame, if I had known I would have bought a few more balls to save, ah, my balls!"

"..."

Ignoring the little female dragon's complaints, Li Yuan turned around and went back to the house.

It was getting dark and he was going to sleep listening to music.

…

In a deserted mountain.
