Chapter 33 Chapter 33 I'm actually practicing dual cultivation! ...
Jiang Yan began to learn the Hehuan skills from Master Hehuan.
On a quiet afternoon, he carefully took the secret book with "Hehuan Gongfa" written on the cover.
The book consists of two volumes, the upper one is thicker and is a serious secret book. It contains the secret formulas of the mind method, the route of the circulation of the meridians and other serious matters.
The second volume is thinner, but if you flip through it, you will find all kinds of secret techniques of lovemaking that cannot be released. If it is seen by the law enforcement team of Taixu Temple, it will be denounced as an "indecent" and "unsightly" book.
Jiang Yan just opened it and took a look out of curiosity. When he just caught a glimpse of the diagram of two little men overlapping each other, he immediately closed the book in panic.
He threw the lower volume into the depths of the Sumeru Ring, held the upper volume in his palm, and pretended nothing had happened.
Master Hehuan only turned around to drink a cup of tea, and when he looked back again, there was only a book left in the young man's hand.
"...Disciple, where is the next volume?"
"Master, I don't need the next volume."
"Food and sex are human nature. There is no need for me to be ashamed of such a thing as pleasure."
"I'm not shy, but I don't need to be next."
"Don't you want to find a partner in this life?"
"I have a sword!" Jiang Yan raised the Demon-Breaking Sword in his hand as if he were presenting a treasure, his brows full of seriousness.
He Huan Zhenren almost rolled his eyes without caring about his image. He warned: "Yan'er, don't forget the ancestral teachings of your master."
Jiang Yan put the sword back behind his back and spread his palms in the air as if supporting it.
"Master, I'm prepared."
Master Hehuan wanted to see what kind of flower he could conjure up.
There was a flash of light, and two thick and sturdy cushions appeared out of thin air, held in Jiang Yan's arms.
He Huan Zhenren: “…”
Jiang Yan: "Master, I have prepared the cushion for kneeling before the tablet of our ancestor."
Master He Huan: “…………”
Master Hehuan cursed himself inwardly.
Why on earth did he feel that Jiang Yan was obedient, well-behaved, and filial?
Filial piety! This is so filial piety.
I also remembered to prepare a thick one for my master so that his knees wouldn’t feel uncomfortable when kneeling.
Jiang Yan separated one and handed it over: "Master, should I put this cushion here or...?"
Master Hehuan couldn't help it after all and rolled his eyes.
He said unhappily, "Keep it for yourself! Even if you can't kneel down at the memorial tablet in the future, you can still give it to your significant other."
Jiang Yan: “Ah?”
Jiang Yan asked blankly: "Why did he kneel to me... No, Master, I don't have a partner, so this assumption is not valid."
He Huan Zhenren smiled meaningfully and said, "There are always times when you are having sex, either he kneels down to help you, or you kneel down to help him."
Jiang Yan: “???”
The young man held the futon in his hands, his face full of confusion.
Why do we have to kneel to each other? It's not like we're getting married and worshipping heaven and earth.
Master Hehuan waved his hand and skipped the topic.
"Forget it, the cushion can be used. Sit down, I will teach you the secret formula of the heart method."
When Jiang Yan heard this, he immediately put the strange sentence that he didn't understand out of his mind and quickly forgot it.
He threw one cushion back into the ring, placed the other on the ground, and sat cross-legged.
Close your eyes, take a deep breath, calm your mind, concentrate, and feel the heaven and earth.
Zhenren Hehuan recited the mantra of the mental method in a deep voice, pointing out the route of his meridians.
Jiang Yan followed his master's words and slowly mobilized the spiritual power in his body.
At first, he was worried that the Hehuan technique would conflict with the Cangming sword technique he was practicing, or that the magic power would resist when circulating in his meridians, causing an energy riot in his body.
The Hehuan technique is indeed famous, claiming to be a dual cultivation technique that can integrate all the energy in the world. The spiritual power is in the meridians, and even if it occasionally encounters magic power, it will no longer repel each other as before, but a feeling of perfect harmony.
My whole body felt as if it was immersed in warm spring water, full of warmth and my meridians had never felt so comfortable.
Jiang Yan felt as if he had found a treasure. He followed the instructions of Master Hehuan and quickly completed a cycle of circulation.
Then, without waiting for Master Hehuan's instructions, he began to practice madly.
This is a secret book used for dual cultivation, but Jiang Yan used it in martial arts.
How come practicing both martial arts and magic isn't a kind of dual practice?
After Master He Huan taught Jiang Yan the secret formula of his cultivation, he watched Jiang Yan sit cross-legged on the cushion and gradually enter a state of cultivation.
Master Hehuan felt somewhat complicated.
——Yan'er actually mastered it in one try.
The Hehuan technique is not some low-level secret manual; on the contrary, it is a top-notch secret technique in the world.
It’s just that because of the reputation of the Hehuan Sect... it’s hard to describe in a few words, people’s evaluation of it is often biased and leads to a misunderstanding.
For most cultivators who only have one type of energy in their bodies, the effectiveness of the Hehuan technique is indeed not very high, and its effectiveness can only be exerted when practicing dual cultivation with a partner.
But if you encounter a situation like Jiang Yan, where there are two incompatible and mutually repelling energies in his body...
The Hehuan technique is really useful.
Zhenren Hehuan carefully observed Jiang Yan's progress in cultivation, his expression was very subtle, and he didn't know what to say.
——Yan'er is actually practicing dual cultivation on her own!
“…”
Forget it, let him practice on his own. If I stay any longer, I'm afraid I'll disturb Yan'er's concentration on practice.
Zhenren Hehuan quietly left the room, fearing that something might happen to Jiang Yan during his first practice of mental skills, so he did not go far and found an open space outside the house to sit and bask in the sun.
Fan Yang and Yan Yushan were very concerned about their junior brother's practice, so they specially chose the right time to come and check on him.
They didn't dare to show up rashly and kept peeking at the door for a while.
Seeing Master leisurely sunbathing, he boldly stepped forward and asked, "Master, how is my junior brother's cultivation going?"
He Huan Zhenren said: "It went very smoothly."
The two were surprised: "You succeeded in just one try? Junior Brother is truly a martial arts genius!"
He Huan Zhenren instructed: "Yu Shan, when you are free, go to the town and buy me a few thicker mats, and some good incense, candles, and yellow paper."
Yan Yushan asked: "What is Master going to do?"
"Worship the ancestors."
"It's still a long way to the New Year's Eve, let alone the Qingming Festival. Isn't it too early to prepare items for ancestor worship now?"
"It's better to be prepared." He Huan Zhenren said solemnly, "I have a feeling that sooner or later, I will go to the tablet of the ancestor to plead for Yan'er."
The two apprentices looked at each other.
"What's the defense?"
He Huan Zhenren sighed deeply and said, "Plead with Master that Shui Xian is also practicing dual cultivation."
Two disciples: "..."
Got it.
The master feels that his junior fellow disciple may not be able to find a partner in this lifetime.
The two looked at the Master with sympathy.
"Don't worry, Master. We are very filial and will prepare the thickest cushions and knee pads for you. You won't feel any pain no matter how long you kneel."
Master Hehuan was so angry that he was speechless.
That's so filial!
**
Life gradually got back on track, and Jiang Yan gradually adapted to life in the Hehuan Sect.
He opened a small vegetable garden in the backyard and would come back to plant it after class every day.
Turning the soil, watering...
In addition to the elf fruits that are prepared to be sold for money, there are other fairy herbs, all of which are spiritual plants that can be used as medicine and for making elixirs.
Since he didn't have some seeds with him, Jiang Yan planted the spiritual herbs with roots into the soil, and then used magic and nutritional potions to promote growth to make the spiritual herbs grow quickly, thus harvesting a batch of seeds.
Jiang Yan is a descendant of nature elves, and being close to nature is an instinct running in his blood.
Farming makes him happy.
What's more, it's a spiritual herb. Once grown, I can use it to research potions, which makes me even happier.
But everyone in the sect was shocked.
Junior Brother is too omnipotent! How many things does he have to do in a day? Can his liver really handle it?
As everyone knows, Jiang Yan's course schedule is very full, and he is the most disciplined person in the entire Hehuan Sect.
Apart from the music and tea art courses that they were denied entry to, and courses like fashion matching that they were not interested in, fashion matching was actually a popular course in the Hehuan Sect, and everyone was vying for it.
Jiang Yan attended all other practical courses such as swordsmanship, alchemy, formation, and weapon refining, and even sat in on a few beast taming classes.
It’s not that I’m greedy and want to learn everything, but I want to understand the world of cultivation better and more comprehensively.
The richness of the Hehuan Sect's courses almost surprised Jiang Yan.
Different from the Sword Sect that specializes in swordsmanship, the Purple Cloud Palace that specializes in piano, the Qingfeng Valley that studies medicine, the Taixu Temple that studies Buddhism, and the Xuanyin Sect that studies all kinds of unorthodox and both good and evil magic...
There are all kinds of courses in the Hehuan Sect, and the leader seems to be omnipotent and has a wide network of contacts.
No matter which school of thought one practices, as long as it is not a lost school, the head of the school can invite a tutor to teach.
This is because the composition of the cultivators within the Hehuan Sect is too complex, and they have learned all kinds of subjects.
The secret book of our sect is the Hehuan Gongfa, which is just an auxiliary Gongfa. The only offensive method is to deliberately lead the opponent's true qi astray during dual cultivation, causing the opponent to suffer internal injuries.
This is like hurting the enemy by a thousand and losing eight hundred of your own.
When practicing dual cultivation, the two spiritual powers became entangled with each other. If one side was damaged, the other side would also feel uncomfortable.
But apart from this, the limitations of the Hehuan technique are too great.
Therefore, the Hehuan Sect does not prevent disciples from retaining the skills they learned before joining the sect.
Those who are learning swords should continue learning, those who are used to using whips should continue using them, and those who are learning magic should not forget the spells they have learned.
Disciples must always have some means of self-protection to avoid being forcibly taken away and used as a furnace.
Unfortunately, although there are many courses, they are not very detailed.
How much you can understand and how much progress you can make in martial arts depends entirely on yourself.
Jiang Yan observed carefully for a month.
The He Huan Sect, from the head to the ordinary cleaning disciples, all used their actual actions to tell him a fact:
Life is short, enjoy it while you can.
Jiang Yan once misunderstood the Hehuan Sect, especially Hehuan Zhenren, who was a diligent and dedicated king who loved to practice. Later he found out that it was all a misunderstanding.
True Man He Huan really hid in his bed and read a storybook, a pornographic one at that, and was caught by his teacher.
Somehow the story spread more and more widely and became a classic legend of the Hehuan Sect. Now, generations of Hehuan Sect disciples are proud of reading the storybook while hiding in bed.
No wonder when the Hehuan Sect recruited disciples, they basically did not accept cultivators who had not yet entered the Tao. The minimum requirement was to be in the Qi Refining Stage, and they also had to repeatedly inquire about their ambitions to cultivate immortality and repeatedly emphasize that this was the Hehuan Sect.
He still had some conscience and was afraid of affecting the future of the monks.
Who knew that Jiang Yan would sneak in!
Without Jiang Yan's knowledge, he gradually became famous in the sect - as the cold beauty.
Jiang Yan has a dull complexion and a frosty temperament. He never gathers with people, and has always been isolated from the crowd, walking alone, not talking much, and avoiding the crowd.
Although he was cold and his occasional smile was extremely faint, it was very stunning and unforgettable to all the disciples. Gradually, some people fell in love with him and began to pursue him.
However, Jiang Yan completely repelled all those who tried to show his courtesy, and even found them annoying.
for example.
In order not to wake up his master and senior brothers, Jiang Yan changed the location for his daily sword practice to a bamboo forest.
Ever since he was accidentally spotted by someone, he almost became a popular check-in spot in the Hehuan Sect.
The morning mist was hazy and the bamboo forest was covered with fallen leaves. The beauty was dancing with a sword, her sword aura was awe-inspiring and her profile was cold and beautiful.
It's really eye-friendly.
Miss Jiang is really romantic.
Everyone said that they couldn't get up early in the morning but they could stay up all night to reserve a spot to see the beautiful Jiang dance with the sword.
Although Jiang Yan repeatedly emphasized that he was not dancing with the sword, but was practicing sword moves normally, and they were all basic sword techniques, such as horizontal slash, vertical block, diagonal stab, etc.
No one believed it and thought that Jiang Yan was amazing for being able to practice basic sword skills so beautifully.
"Who would get up so early in the morning to practice sword moves? It's not like we have to cram for the final exam. And as time passes, your graceful figure is so beautiful. I guess you must be trying to record your sword dance in the daylight?"
Some suitors even asked enthusiastically: "Where are the recording beads? I have good skills and can help you record the video. I will definitely record your dance perfectly!"
“……???”
What the hell is going on!
Jiang Yan felt very troubled, but he was not good at speaking. He tried to give people the cold shoulder many times, but it always had the opposite effect.
The colder the face and the harder the tone, the more people want to face the challenge head-on.
Most people would politely turn around and leave, but there are always some who shamelessly stay, hoping to find a chance to spend time with Jiang Yan.
One of the male disciples, seeing that Jiang Yan had a good temper, tried to persuade him but did not take any action, and became even more excessive.
Not only did he get up early every day to watch Jiang Yan practice sword, but he would also follow him back to the courtyard where he lived after he finished practicing.
Occasionally, he would deliberately wait on the path that Jiang Yan had to pass, hoping to create an encounter.
It's like a piece of taffy, not very annoying.
Jiang Yan couldn't bear it anymore.
The next day, when Jiang Yan was doing morning exercises as usual, the man pretended not to understand what he was saying and wanted to stay and get close to him.
Jiang Yan turned his back to him, and assumed a sword-practicing posture that was no different from usual, but suddenly swung the sword.
The frosty sword energy carried a very faint murderous aura. It burst forward for a distance and then suddenly turned back, attacking behind with the force of thunder.
A moon-white arc of light flashed by!
The tall and big disciple of the Hehuan Sect screamed and tried to hide quickly.
How can a person who is usually lazy in his studies avoid this sword as swift as thunder?
The man froze in place, his pupils slightly dilated, his breathing stagnated. His calf suddenly cramped, the pain was excruciating, but he dared not move.
A trace of blood slowly seeped out from the right side of the neck.
Several bamboos behind him were split into two pieces, slowly tilted, and finally collapsed to the ground with a "bang", with smoke and dust billowing.
"……ah."
Jiang Yan seemed to have just noticed something unusual. He slowly put away his sword and turned sideways to look back.
"It's Senior Brother Wu. Why are you here? I'm really sorry for hurting you by mistake."
The young man apologized, but there was only mockery in his eyes. There was no smile on his handsome face and his tone was extremely cold.
"I clearly told you yesterday, brother, don't follow me anymore. Especially when we are practicing sword skills, the farther away the better, otherwise you might get hurt by mistake."
Jiang Yan asked coldly, "Why? Senior Brother Wu, is it because your hearing is not good that you didn't hear it?"
The male disciple named Wu's face turned pale and blue. He wanted to say something, but then he recalled the icy sword that almost took his life, and he instantly became timid.
"...I didn't take Junior Brother's warning to heart. I hope Junior Brother will calm down."
Jiang Yan nodded expressionlessly:
"Go away."
"There won't be a next time."
