Chapter 100 Retreat (Congratulations on the New Year. Happy New Year)
——Sorry, it’s a little late. I didn’t have time to surf the Internet at night, so I wrote the second chapter before uploading it. There was another chapter before. In addition, congratulations on the New Year and happy New Year to everyone
Shi Xuan suppressed the doubts in his heart, completely figured out the Broken Jade Jue, and after collecting the questions, he went directly to Mo Yuan's cave. I saw Mo Yuan sitting around drinking tea. He understood that the master was waiting for him to ask questions, and he was slightly moved in his heart. You must know that Mo Yuan is a cultivator.
"Master, this disciple has already seen Broken Jade Jue, and I still have some questions for you to ask." Shi Xuan didn't waste any time and started asking directly.
Mo Yuan put down the tea cup and said calmly: "You can ask."
When Shi Xuan finished asking the questions about Broken Jade Technique, he pretended to ask casually: "Master, how come my Taoist technique, which can be practiced during the out-of-body period, is not divided into stages? Just warming and tempering can increase some The power, and this power is probably much weaker than the second level." Anyway, Mo Yuan already knew that he had such a Taoist skill, so Shi Xuan boldly asked.
Mo Yuan was also very puzzled, showing a rare expression of thoughtfulness, and after asking carefully, he walked into the cave study room, looked through the collected Taoist jade slips, and walked out after a while.
"Master, have you found the reason?" Shi Xuan was cautious.
Mo Yuan nodded: "I thought the book was a lie, but I didn't expect it to be true. It was recorded in ancient times that a powerful monk in Yuyu World learned a secret technique from nowhere. Later, in order to allow some of his younger generations to practice Taoism and enhance their self-protection ability during the out-of-body period, he combined this secret method and created a method of splitting Taoism, which can divide a very demanding Taoism into The laws and regulations are divided into several Taoist techniques, thereby reducing the requirements for cultivation. "
Mo Yuan thought for a moment and then said: "After successfully practicing these split Taoist skills, you can no longer continue to practice and enhance the level. It is said that you can only wait until you have learned several Taoist skills that are split from the same Taoist skill before you can pass a certain level." If there is an opportunity, they can be combined at a certain stage to form a complete Taoist technique, and then they can continue to practice. The most admirable thing about this method is that this complete Taoist technique can be successfully combined. There are only four or five levels, which greatly saves training time. It is really a wonderful method that conquers the world. "
"So that's it." Shi Xuan suddenly realized. No wonder Qingyunzi wanted him to complete the five Taoist magical powers before the golden elixir stage, saying that there would be great benefits after reaching the golden elixir stage.
"Your Taoist skills should also be this kind of split-off Taoist skills. Depending on the situation, you have more than one." Mo Yuan looked at Shi Xuan with a half-smile.
Shi Xuan had no choice but to answer honestly: "Master Qi, there are indeed five disciples, but there is no record of how to separate and combine them. Instead, it is said that there are great benefits after the golden elixir stage."
Mo Yuan took a sip of tea: "It seems that it is divided according to the law of the five elements. In this case, according to the records in the Taoist book, after combining the original Taoism, the five sects will be the fifth level. When the five elements are combined, they will be promoted to one level. It has reached the sixth level, saving nearly two hundred years of effort. It is worthy of being a powerful senior. Even outside our great world of Yu Yu, only the twenty-seven worlds with the Golden Immortal Taoist Ancestor may have this kind of ability. It’s a secret.”
Shi Xuan smiled flatteringly: "I don't know if you want to learn from me, master. The disciple has received the Qianyang Qingdeng, and you haven't returned the gift yet?" According to some ancient rituals, when worshiping a master, the disciple should give the gift first, and then the master should return the gift. However, Shi Xuan was inexplicable at the time and had no talents. In addition, the Penglai sect had no disciples to offer gifts, so he ignored the past.
"What's the use of learning it as a teacher? According to you, you should take advantage of the turbulent times and the intersection of dragon and tiger when the golden elixir is formed to combine Taoism in one fell swoop. Sure enough, only at this time can we capture the wonders of heaven and earth. . "Although Mo Yuan seemed cold-faced, he looked up to and respected the Taoist seniors.
After sighing, Mo Yuancai said calmly: "I accepted you as a disciple because you are a talented person who is very similar to my persistence on the path of cultivation when I was young. I am not seeking any benefits from you. If you can Achieving high-grade golden elixir is the best reward for being a teacher."
Shi Xuan stood up, bowed respectfully, and then said: "Disciple, please remember this."
"Okay, you go down. In a few days, you will say goodbye to Master Ming's nephew, and it's time for you to retreat." For monks who have just broken through the entrainment period, the most important thing is to retreat. Combining all the inner energy of the whole body with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and transforming it into true energy is a time-consuming skill that can take as long as five or six years, or as little as two or three years.
"Yes." Shi Xuan bowed and left.

Yingke Island outside Penglai Island.
Zhou Dielan was holding Ming Qingyue and crying softly, and Yu Ruoshui's eyes were red. Today, Ming Qingyue will travel around the world to sharpen her Taoist heart. After this farewell, I don't know how many years it will be before we meet again. The ones within the sect who have the shortest time to sharpen their Taoist heart are some playboys who come back after two or three years, or simply dominate the waters of the Three Islands. However, the one who has been recorded to have the longest time to sharpen their Taoist heart is Jiang Yehe, the twelfth generation disciple. It took a full hundred years for him to return to the sect. By then, he had already achieved a top-grade golden elixir.
"Okay, okay, it's not like I won't come back, don't cry." Ming Qingyue looked at Shi Xuan helplessly.
Shi Xuan signaled Yu Ruoshui to persuade Zhou Dielan, and then stepped forward and said: "Qingyue, this time you are going from the North Sea, through the North Pole, through the Storm Sea, to the Southern Barbarians, and finally across the Storm Sea again, from overseas countries, flames There are many difficulties and obstacles along the way back from the islands, especially in the North Sea, so you must be careful.”
"Shi Xuan, why have you become so verbose? I know." Ming Qingyue knew that he meant well, but his good intentions were so strong that it made Ming Qingyue, who had never experienced separation and separation, feel embarrassed and slightly shy.
Shi Xuan smiled bitterly: "It's not because of the cruelty and ferocity of the Blood Demon Sect's Blood Shadow Divine Art. I'm afraid you'll be turned into a piece of nothing if someone pounces on you."
"Bah, Shi Xuan, you can't have a crow's mouth." Yu Ruoshui saw that Shi Xuan's words were not a good omen and immediately stopped him.
Ming Qingyue raised her chin slightly and said with some pride: "As long as I don't meet their masters at the Soul Stage, I'm not afraid."
"I'm just afraid that you are too strong, so I gave you a warning." Shi Xuan said softly. Ming Qingyue had a strong personality. She had been favored since she was a child and no one dared to bully her. After entering the sect, she was immediately accepted as a disciple by Master Jindan. Everyone is respectful and has little experience of the world, so carelessness is inevitable.
Seeing Shi Xuan's solemn words, Ming Qingyue blushed slightly: "I will pay attention. Besides, I also have the fifth-level Taoist self-defense bracelet given by my master, as well as the Tongxin Jade Pendant that delivers messages within the sect. Is there any danger? , all the fellow disciples within thousands of miles will know. After you have achieved success in a few years, you will also go out. If I haven't come back yet, please remember my instructions today, be careful, be careful, be careful again." At the end, Ming said. Instead, Qingyue warned Shi Xuan.
Shi Xuan smiled slightly when he heard this, making Ming Qingyue's face turn crimson as he smiled, and stamped his feet: "You don't know the heart of a good person. I want to go home, so I'm leaving now."
Then Ming Qingyue, Yu Ruoshui, and Zhou Dielan hugged each other goodbye, set up the blue streamer that turned the sea scale, and flew into the sky. Before disappearing into the sky, she seemed to turn around and look here again.
Afterwards, Shi Xuan, Yu Ruoshui, and Zhou Dielan returned to Xinyue Peak through the Rainbow Bridge. Shi Xuan told the two women that he was about to retreat.
"Sister Ming has just left, and Brother Shi is about to go into seclusion. Only Sister Yu and I are left to practice." Zhou Dielan sighed.
"This is a stage where I must retreat during the Qi-entraining period. As long as you two stick to the current path of cultivation, you can have such a day in the future. Hehe, am I not your role model." Shi Xuan understood that if the sect is selected Telling them about the observations and tests of the inherited disciples made them worry and show their timidity. They would also think about things when they were practicing and were prone to making mistakes, so I just reminded them secretly in a joking way.
Yu Ruoshui smiled and nodded: "The two of us have seen with our own eyes how Shi Xuan got to where you are now step by step. How could you not know how to learn from such a good example? Moreover, in the past five years, although the pill has only been taken once a day, But in terms of soul control and my ability to sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth clearly, I am better than other disciples. I am confident that I will not need the Taishang Sensing Pill to break through to the Qi-entraining stage in the next twenty years or so."
Shi Xuan understood that Yu Ruoshui did not have his own supreme magic, so it would naturally take more time to accumulate before he could break through, so he encouraged her with a smile: "I don't think it will take twenty years, maybe fourteen or five years to break through. Zhou Dielan is the same, I hope you can break through within twenty years."
"I'd like to lend you some good words." Yu Ruoshui smiled sweetly.
Zhou Dielan also smiled shyly and said, "I won't let you down, Brother Shi."
After bidding farewell to the two girls, Shi Xuan returned to the cave to rest for a good night to prepare for the subsequent retreat.
…………
The next day, Shi Xuan came to Mo Yuan's cave: "Master, the disciple is ready. I don't know where to go for retreat?" Because there are retreat caves in the mountains behind Tianji Peak and Tianshu Peak, Shi Xuan had to consult the master first. Views.
Mo Yuan said coldly: "Let's just go to the back mountain of Tianji Peak. Anyway, you can't be greedy for more while condensing Qi during the Qi-entraining period. Also, in fact, retreat is also a kind of mental cultivation. Ordinary people always want to be in such a cave. It is so boring and sad to stay here for several years with no one to talk to and no one to communicate with. The monks must cultivate their character, change the way they think about problems, and turn seclusion into a normal thing. Otherwise, even if they get the great opportunity. Chang Sheng will also go crazy because Chang Sheng will be too boring in the end.”
"Disciple, thank you master for your advice." Shi Xuan said goodbye to Mo Yuan and came to the back mountain of Tianji Peak. He asked for a cave with sufficient spiritual energy. After entering, he used a formation to seal it.
When you reach the Qi-entraining stage, you can go without food. The body's needs are replenished by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, so you can start long-term real retreat practice.
Shi Xuan adjusted his mood, entered into the visualization, and controlled the blue true energy in his body to travel around in the meridians of the body, constantly tempering the skin, muscles, meridians, blood vessels, internal organs, etc., only through the true energy Through tempering, the physical body can withstand more spiritual energy from heaven and earth, and it can condense and contain more true energy.
