Chapter 347: Gathering Essence and Blood, Staying in the Spirit
Inside the living room, the incense burner is emitting a refreshing fragrance that calms the mind. The bamboo curtains are swaying gently in the breeze. Through the arched doorway, one can see the specially trimmed bamboo, trees, flowers and plants outside.
Occasionally a cool breeze blows, making people feel very cool and comfortable.
Chen Chuan said, "I did see something today, but I can't tell what it was, and I didn't try to find out. I just followed what Senior Cao said, guarded my mind, and ignored it."
Cao Guiqi nodded and said, "Breaking through the old method and encountering this strange phenomenon is a sign of sufficient talent. If you can hold on and not be infected by the strange phenomenon, it means you have already passed the more difficult level.
But this is only something you need to face in the early stages. Later in your practice, you will also face these visions from time to time. However, this is not entirely a bad thing. These are both a crisis for you and a source of nourishment for your practice. As long as you constantly control them and don't let them disturb you, you can use them to hone your mind and remove impurities. This will actually benefit you."
He said, "Uncle Ding, go get that copy of 'A Study of Strange Things'."
Uncle Ding bowed and turned to go out. After a while, he came back with a thread-bound book and handed it to Cao Guiqi. The latter waved his hand, indicating that he should send it to Chen Chuan.
Cao Guiqi said, "This contains some strange stories and legends, originally hidden in the imperial storage room. This is a rubbing, which records the experiences of most of the third-level fighters of the old era after they achieved success. It also includes some coping techniques and methods. Brother Chen, take it back and read it, it may be helpful."
Chen Chuan took it from Uncle Ding, thanked him, opened it and took a look. He found that it was a vertical layout and most of the characters used were old variant forms. He felt a little uncomfortable at first glance.
Fortunately, he now has Jie Ping. With just a quick comparison, the horizontal version of the current characters can be displayed on the light screen next to him, making it easy for him to read.
Cao Guiqi took a sip of the teacup and put it down. He then sat up straight and said, "You can go back and look through the contents slowly. I'll tell you the key points of cultivation you need to pay attention to at this level."
Chen Chuan put the book down and sat up straight in his seat, looking serious.
Cao Guiqi said, "From the first to the third limit, each has its own emphasis. According to the old saying, they are 'building tendon bridges, building bone beams' and 'activating the six internal organs, giving birth to the five zang organs'. I believe your teacher told you about this when you were studying?"
Chen Chuan nodded.
Cao Guiqi said solemnly: "Now that you have reached the third level, within this level, what you need to focus on is 'holding your essence and blood, and maintaining your spirit'!
The so-called essence and blood used to refer to the vital energy of the human body, but a fighter's 'essence and blood' are closely related to alienated tissues and require some special things and medicines to cultivate. The accumulation of essence and blood is particularly important, and a fighter's fighting ability often depends on the amount of essence and blood.
For example, Wei Wusheng's horizontal training focuses on this method. The reason he can reconnect broken limbs, grow flesh on bones, and even return to life from the dead is due to the abundant essence and blood accumulated behind him.
Its source lies in the 'heart'.
The so-called Shen Chang is the 'eternal God', which can make the fighter's mind more sharp, the whole body more open, and become the true master of himself.
Fighters at the third level often possess amazing speed and superior physical coordination, thanks to this.
Because the mind is fickle and often wanders, it needs to be constantly nurtured to ensure that it remains in place. This requires training using a special method, and spontaneous visions are one of them. So I said that this is not entirely a bad thing.
It is usually difficult for fighters who are not from an orthodox background to cultivate this skill. They can only hone it slowly through crude and simple methods in repeated life-and-death battles. Here is a set of methods that you can take back for reference.
In addition, you can purchase the corresponding methods at Wuyi College. You can try both methods to see which one is suitable for you. It is also okay to use all of them at the same time. The more your mind changes, the more you experience, the more resilient you will be.
If the spirit can stay in a deep place, it can control the growth of the body, keep youthfulness and prolong life. Some fighters often live to be a hundred years old and do not need to take medicine. They also have a childlike face and fair skin. This is due to this.
The source of this lies in the brain.
"Essence, blood, and spirit complement each other, and it's best to develop both simultaneously, rather than focusing on one or the other. That would be lame."
After hearing this, Chen Chuan, combined with his own knowledge and feelings, suddenly became much clearer in his mind and looked thoughtful.
Cao Guiqi intentionally waited for a while, and when he saw that he had digested all this and his attention had returned, he continued, "Next, I will also tell you how to practice.
There are only two ways. One is still to use medicine. The government, major companies, and colleges all provide nourishing medicines, but they are different from the previous ones. The third-level medicines are specially made, with few channels to obtain and extremely expensive.
Although you are a drug tester of Qingnang Yufang, after reaching the third limit, the previous agreement is useless to you and you need to sign another agreement. If you want to obtain it, there is a way, but such a large company may also use drugs to deepen its control over you, so you should consider carefully before making a decision.
As for the other approach, this involves information that cannot be leaked freely. Due to the agreement, I cannot tell you at the moment, but don't worry. In a month or two at most, someone from the academy or the handling bureau will come to inform you and explain everything to you."
At this point, he added a reminder, "You'll need to choose your path carefully from now on. However, you're currently in the consolidation phase, so don't worry about this for at least thirty or forty days. I'll give you a list of medications for transportation and maintenance later. You can purchase them from the academy accordingly."
Chen Chuan then clasped his fists and bowed, saying solemnly, "Thank you, Senior Cao."
When the processing bureau recommended Senior Cao as his professor, they only asked him to teach him up to the third level. As for what happened after the third level, it actually had nothing to do with him, but he was still willing to guide him, for which he was sincerely grateful.
Cao Guiqi smiled and said, "The road ahead will be difficult, and it will be difficult for me to guide you in your cultivation. You have to walk on your own. However, I am a few years older than you, so I can still give you some advice. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me."
Chen Chuan thanked him again, and the two of them stopped talking about these things. They just drank tea and admired the scenery, and talked about some topics related to the layout of the central city. In the evening, Chen Chuan said goodbye and left.
After Chen Chuan was sent away, Uncle Ding returned and said, "Young Master, you have a very good eye. Brother Chen is only eighteen years old, and he has already achieved the third limit. He can kill a thug like Wei Wusheng right away. Maybe he can fulfill Young Master's unfulfilled wish in the future."
Cao Guiqi shook his head. "He has his own path. I've already walked mine. There's no need to force others to walk it for me. I'm willing to help. Firstly, it's because we meet by chance, and secondly, Brother Chen is a good person with good character and personality. He's worthy of support."
He sipped his tea slowly and said casually, "Uncle Ding, remember, don't mention anything about me in front of him from now on."
Uncle Ding bowed deeply and said, "Yes, Master, I've made a note of it."
After coming out of Motie Mountain, Chen Chuan did not rush back, but drove the car slowly on the road, looking at the scenery on both sides.
After entering the academy, he has been training hard. Now that he has entered the third level, he doesn't have to be so tense and can relax for a rare moment.
Thinking that it is vacation time now, and I was still in the academy because of practice, now that I have solved all the problems that can be solved, I can go home.
Thinking of this, he planned to return to Yangzhi in the next two days.
He thought about it again and sent a voice message to Wu Bei, Lao Qi, and some acquaintances, informing them that he might be away from the central city for a while in the next two days and that they could contact him by telegram if they had any questions.
After returning to the Xuangong Building, he first changed some water and food for Chaoming. Looking at the little thing eating happily, he thought that since he was going back, it would not be appropriate to leave the little thing here, so it would be better to take it back with him.
Sitting back on the sofa, he took out the medicine list Cao Guiqi gave him, looked at it for a few seconds, thought about it, and took out a list he had copied before to compare it.
This list is a list of medicines left by Teacher Wu and You Xing.
As third-level fighters, both of them had hidden some third-level medicines.
Especially Youxing, there are quite a lot of medicines in the storage room. Most of the ones marked by Cao Guiqi can be found there, and according to the amount left, even if used every day, it will be more than enough to support one or two months. In this case, it is just right to wait until he comes back from home to consider this matter in detail.
But he is still a reserve law enforcer of the bureau after all. He will be at home for at least a month, so he still has to inform the bureau before leaving.
But we can talk about it tomorrow. He didn't want to do anything today, so he got up, put the list away, sat back on the sofa, and turned on the marginal channel.
At this moment, in the principal's assistant room on the top floor of Xuangong Building, the scene of the battle between Chen Chuan and Wei Wusheng was replaying on the screen.
After a few minutes passed, the final scene froze at the moment when Chen Chuan stood in front of Wei Wusheng's fallen body.
Assistant Ling rested one hand on the back of the sofa and one foot on the other leg, his eyes full of admiration. In his judgment, it should not be long before Chen Chuan entered the third limit, no more than two months at the longest, and probably only a few days at the shortest.
Judging from the records before and after, Chen Chuan stayed in the dormitory most of the time in the past one or two months and did not go out. He only went to watch the ring match in the past two days. It is very likely that he had been accumulating energy before and only broke through the limit in the past few days.
But even though he has only been in this limit for a short time, he still has the strength to defeat Wei Wusheng. This kind of talent is rare in the third limit, and his future growth potential is immeasurable.
Another voice echoed from the world: "Now that he's confirmed to be a third-level fighter, what are your plans? Talk to him now?"
Assistant Ling smiled and said, "Don't worry. We'll contact him after he knows the details. He may not be able to accept what we say now, so we can wait."
