The days passed in peaceful cultivation. Li Shiming returned to the state of completing the sect's formation maintenance tasks at Jiufeng every few days. His formation level was also improving with the continuous sharing of knowledge by IBMz15.
After a period of accumulation, he had accumulated a lot of good deeds, which gave him the confidence to come to the Canggong Pavilion again.
It was very quiet in the Tibetan Kung Fu Pavilion, and many monks were searching for the Kung Fu they needed inside.
Li Shiming walked lightly and saw the familiar Senior Brother Liu.
This is normal. Considering the lifespan of cultivators, and the good task of working in the Canggong Pavilion, most people will continue to stay in the Canggong Pavilion unless they are promoted to the foundation-building stage or retire and stop working hard.
"Senior Brother Liu!" Li Shiming greeted Senior Brother Liu who was in a daze with a smile.
"Give me the jade disc of identity. What kind of martial arts do you want me to learn?" Same words, same casualness.
However, when Senior Brother Liu looked at Li Shiming, he obviously recognized Li Shiming.
"It's Brother Li, long time no see!" Senior Brother Liu said with a smile on his face.
"Senior Brother Liu, I'm sorry to bother you!" Li Shiming handed over ten spirit stones in his hand.
This time, Senior Brother Liu did not reach out and use his skilled collecting ability, but quickly retracted his hand, fearing that he would accidentally collect it.
"Brother Li, aren't you slapping me in the face? Just ask me if you have anything to say. I will do whatever I can!" Senior Brother Liu promised, patting his chest.
The fact that Senior Brother Liu can stay stable in a place like Cang Gong Pavilion must mean that he has a certain background.
He knew some secrets that most of the sect's disciples were unaware of, such as the conflict between Li Shiming and the Yun's Trading Company, which even Master Zhao of Genfeng could not suppress. In the end, a foundation-building cultivator from the Yun's family was sentenced to guard the Tianhai sealine forever, and all the middle-level and above members of the Yun's family were put on trial.
Although he didn't know who was behind Li Shiming, he was sure it must be one of the elders.
How could he dare to accept spirit stones from such a powerful person? Every time he thought about the two times he had accepted spirit stones from Li Shiming before, he became uneasy.
Li Shiming smiled and put the ten spirit stones aside. He had taken them out and had no intention of taking them back.
"I need to find a technique that allows me to do two things at once. Brother Liu, please help me!" he said to Brother Liu.
"Doing two things at once?" Senior Brother Liu hesitated for a moment, then continued, "In order to build a foundation, cultivators need to sharpen their spirit and body to make their spirit and body harmonious and complete. Therefore, there is no method of doing two things at once in the Qi Refining Stage's exercises in this Canggong Pavilion!"
Senior Brother Liu was very sure about what he said. He seemed to be doing nothing in the sect's Canggong Pavilion, but he remembered clearly the names and introductions of all the Qi-refining techniques that were under his management. This was the reason he stayed in the Canggong Pavilion.
"In other words, if you want to learn the technique of multitasking, you need to look for it on the second floor?" Li Shiming frowned and asked, pointing upwards.
"Brother Li on the second floor doesn't have to think about it. The sect stipulates that Qi Refining cultivators must have good deeds. They cannot exchange for Foundation Establishment techniques before reaching the Foundation Establishment stage. In addition, I heard that the Divine Power techniques of the Foundation Establishment stage require spiritual thoughts to practice!" Senior Brother Liu shook his head and explained.
Li Shiming nodded. The sect’s rules were easy to understand.
The first floor of the sect's hidden power pavilion is for Qi refining and secular skills, which are of little value.
As long as one has enough good deeds, even top-notch skills like the 'Vajra Body Protection Skill' and the 'Sword Controlling Technique' can be exchanged, but these skills have a common feature, that is, they only have the Qi Refining stage part, so there is no need to worry about them leaking out.
However, the techniques used in the Foundation Establishment Stage are far too precious and their value is too high to be allowed to be accessed by Qi Refining Stage cultivators.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Liu!" Li Shiming clasped his fists towards Senior Brother Liu with some disappointment and said goodbye.
When Senior Brother Liu saw the ten spirit stones placed aside, he secretly sighed at Li Shiming's character. His brain worked rapidly, trying to look for the information he had read.
"Wait, Brother Li!" Just as Li Shiming was about to step out of the Canggong Pavilion, Senior Brother Liu stopped him.
"Senior Brother Liu?" Li Shiming turned around and asked in surprise.
"The method of multitasking that Brother Li wants is not among the Qi Refining Stage techniques, but there is a book over there. However, that is a mundane martial art in the martial arts world. It is said that very few people have mastered it. It only involves some spiritual aspects, so it is included here by the Canggong Pavilion!" Senior Brother Liu said, pointing to a place.
After Senior Brother Liu finished speaking, he walked over there, and Li Shiming quickly followed him.
Unlike the cultivators' skills that were stored in jade slips, those placed in this area were all kept in the form of books.
Senior Brother Liu arrived at the target location very accurately and picked up a book without any hesitation, which showed that he was familiar with the first floor of the Canggong Pavilion.
He handed the book to Li Shiming, who took it.
"Left-right fighting!" Li Shiming read out the name of this martial art softly.
If he didn't know that this was a world of cultivating immortals, he would have thought that he had traveled to Mr. Jin's martial arts world, because the name of this martial arts book was too coincidental.
He flipped through the book and saw long passages of text that blended Taoism, Buddhism and Confucianism. It was obvious that the author seemed to want to show off his literary talent, but to be honest, in the eyes of him, who had won the third place in the imperial examination, it was a bit embarrassing.
Obviously, 'Left and Right Fighting' is indeed a method of doing two things at the same time, but the person who wrote about the method made the concept of the method very mysterious. If you are not familiar with some knowledge of Taoism, Buddhism and Confucianism, I am afraid that you will not even be able to understand the method.
Not to mention that many of the allusions and words used are wrong and misleading.
In fact, just by flipping through it, Li Shiming recorded all the "fighting between the left and right" into IBMz15.
The sect does not attach importance to this kind of secular skills, and the one placed here is the complete version.
"I want this book 'Left-Right Fight'!" Li Shiming was not stingy with his good deeds, he said to Brother Liu.
"Brother Li, just take this book of two good deeds. I'll make up for it later!" Senior Brother Liu was very happy to be able to help him and said with a smile.
Li Shiming took a look at the book in his hand. Judging from its form and age, it should be the original.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Liu!" This was also a favor from Senior Brother Liu, he said as he took out his identity jade disc.
He left the Canggong Pavilion with the "Left and Right Fighting" in his hand, recalling the contents about "Left and Right Fighting" in his mind.
Although 'Left and Right Fighting' is a secular martial art, it still involves the spiritual level. Putting aside the content of utilizing internal energy, the ingenious conception on the spiritual level alone gave him a lot of inspiration.
The inventor of 'Left-Right Fighting' was very bold. He used the warrior's internal energy in the head to separate the left and right brains. On this basis, he used spiritual techniques to obtain two independent thinking brains.
In previous medical research, the middle part of the brain between the left and right sides was called the corpus callosum.
There is a surgery called corpus callosotomy, which is a surgery to treat epilepsy.
This type of surgery is extremely dangerous and was widely used in the early days of medical development, and a large amount of surgical data has been accumulated.
It is impossible for Li Shiming to cut off his corpus callosum in order to learn the "Left-right Fighting" technique. No wonder few people can practice the "Left-right Fighting" technique successfully. To some extent, this technique has the same effect as the "Sunflower Manual".
But the concept of 'fighting both left and right' can be used as a reference. Before obtaining the cultivator's spirit separation technique, 'fighting both left and right' is a way to solve the problem.
He doesn't have much time, because the drop of essence and blood in the clone's body will be completely absorbed in the next few days, and then he can summon the clone out of the computer room.
The clone means a lot to him. As a clone cultivated by his original corpse, it can be promoted to the foundation-building stage first. Then he will have the combat power of the foundation-building stage to carry with him.
In addition, if he could do two things at once, he would have more time to study and research.
To isolate the left and right brain, it is not necessary to go to such extremes as cutting off the corpus callosum. He can use his spiritual power to directly block the connection between the left and right brain.
Then use the mental technique of "left and right fighting each other" to make the left and right brain think separately. This requires the left and right brain to think independently and freely. Then it will be no problem to restore the connection between the left and right brain.
Of course, Li Shiming's idea must first undergo a safety analysis of IBM z15 and conduct a biological simulation experiment in IBM z15.
The IBM z15 already had the medical simulation system from the university where he worked in his previous life, so he didn't have to rewrite the program.
As long as the data is imported, the simulation system will conduct experiments on a virtual human body and obtain theoretical experimental data through analytical calculations.
Li Shiming did not need this experiment to be perfect. He used spiritual thoughts to separate the left and right brains, not to really cut them off, so as long as it was supported in theory, it would be fine.
After analysis and calculation by IBMz15, an analysis report with a success rate of 78% was obtained.
At night, without any interruptions, he used his spiritual power to separate the left and right parts of his brain.
Just after the left and right brains separated, he tried to take a few steps. For one of the steps, his brain clearly issued a command, but one of his feet did not extend out, and he fell to the ground all of a sudden.
"Fortunately, I didn't practice 'Left-right Fighting' directly!" He shook his head and smiled bitterly, muttering to himself.
After becoming familiar with his body, he began to use mental techniques to allow the left and right brains to think independently.
To be honest, he had already planned for countless failures, but in actual operation, he found that he had thought too much.
The first time he used mental techniques to make the left and right brains think independently, he inexplicably succeeded in making the left and right brains think about two math problems separately without affecting each other.
In fact, this is related to the fact that he usually puts part of his consciousness into the computer room space. To a certain extent, this is also a kind of training for multitasking.
Under the guidance of the success and safety of his predecessors, his previous conscious behavior was guided in the right direction.
Although he was still a little uncomfortable with the whole day, he was able to do two things at once.
This feeling is very strange. He can use his right brain to control the left half of his body and do things that have nothing to do with the right half of his body, while his left brain controls the right half of his body and performs different operations.
When he upgraded this feeling and used his right brain to control his entire body, the empty left brain descended into the clone through consciousness.
This is even easier than controlling the left half of the body. Managing a body divided into two halves is much more complicated than managing a complete body.
'Fighting Both Left and Right' was like a key that opened the door for Li Shiming to do two things at once. The subsequent changes were no longer the result of 'Fighting Both Left and Right'.
This secular practice is incapable of understanding spiritual thoughts and consciousness.
As Li Shiming adapted for a longer time, he found it easier to multitask, and he could maintain control of two bodies at the same time for a long time.
He observes the world with two pairs of eyes and does different things with four hands. All the unreasonable things become simple and reasonable after he can do two things at the same time.
A few nights later, Li Shiming strengthened the small mountain protection formation to the extreme, and set up a formation to isolate the aura in the underground space where he was.
He was in a formation that isolated the aura, and his consciousness entered the computer room.
Then a figure appeared beside him. Li Shiming, who was the third place in the imperial examination, was now eighteen years old. He practiced the 'Vajra Body Protection Magic' and the 'Sword Demon Secret Book', as well as the 'Devil Sound Lotus' and other skills, which gave him a strange temperament and an extremely handsome face.
But as soon as his clone appeared, it surpassed his original body.
The perfect face of the clone, calculated through IBMz15 analysis, does not need any temperament enhancement. When people see it, they can feel that it is the world's top treasure.
Not to mention that he also practiced the 'Secret Book of the Sword Demon', and his spirit had far surpassed Li Shiming's at this time, which made the clone have a unique appeal.
"Have I gone too far?" Li Shiming muttered to himself as he looked at his clone.
"Fellow Daoist, I am you. What's wrong with that?" the clone replied with a smile.
"Yes, who doesn't want to have a face like this!" Li Shiming laughed.
This scene of talking to himself looks a bit weird, but in this way, he is getting used to the feeling of having two bodies together.
The clone threw a punch and Li Shiming dodged, but he was still a step too slow and was hit on the shoulder by the punch.
"You should put away some of your strength. You have reached the peak of Qi training, but I am only at the fifth level!" Li Shiming rubbed his painful shoulder and said dissatisfiedly.
"Okay, I will also converge to the fifth level of Qi Refining!" the clone replied with a smile.
Even though his strength was suppressed to the fifth level of Qi Refining, the clone still overpowered Li Shiming.
The skills that Li Shiming and his clone learned were the same. If they were at the same realm, their strengths should theoretically be exactly the same.
But we have to take into account that the clone's "Sword Demon Secret Book" is much more profound than Li Shiming's, and there are two levels of physical strength, which makes the speed and strength in battle very different.
It can be said that the combat power of the clone at this time is the combat power of Li Shiming when he was at the peak of Qi training. Of course, the premise is that Li Shiming has not learned any new skills.
The sparring between the clone and Li Shiming not only gave Li Shiming more combat experience, but also helped him to honed his multitasking skills, allowing him to gain more experience in controlling two bodies in combat.
The only drawback is the problem of the clone's magical weapon. He cannot use the clone's previous magical weapon, but anything that can be solved with spirit stones is not a problem.
