Chapter 309: Gu Dan suddenly realized, I plan for eternity!

"Middle stage of Qi training."

Spiritual energy surrounded his body and Gu Dan’s eyes were as sharp as lightning.

Today's cultivators divide Qi training into nine levels, and the third level is considered a small realm.

The middle stage of Qi training, that is, reaching the fourth level of Qi training, is already considered a small watershed in the realm of Qi training.

Before the fourth level, the total amount of spiritual energy possessed by the cultivator is not enough, and it is almost impossible to fight for a long time. The cultivators in this period are the weakest, and some magic arts that consume a lot of energy will exhaust their own spiritual power after just a few uses.

However, when you reach the middle stage of Qi training, this situation will change.

Similar to the Grandmaster, the Qigong cultivators at this stage are already able to manifest their spiritual power externally, which can be regarded as truly comparable to the Grandmaster's release of true Qi. Even without the aid of magic, they can protect their bodies on their own, and finally have some of the demeanor of a cultivator.

It is said that there is a small barrier between the early and middle stages of Qi training, and people with ordinary talents may even need to spend years to hone their skills.

But Gu Dan didn't feel a thing at all, and his spiritual power manifested naturally, which also meant that his strength in the way of immortality had reached the middle stage of Qi training.

"In the middle stage of Qi training, is he competing against a warrior who has just reached the Grandmaster level?"

Playing with the light in his hand, Gu Dan seemed to be thinking about something.

The sign of truly becoming a grandmaster is the release of true Qi.

The sign of the middle stage of Qi training is the manifestation of spiritual power.

The later stages of Qi training is a process of gradually accumulating oneself, which is very similar to the master's Qi constantly polishing the whole body. Even the way of expressing oneself is the same.

How could they be so similar?

"No, that's not right."

It is no exaggeration to say that Gu Dan's current understanding of martial arts is the best in the world. Just because he has begun to cultivate the way of immortality does not mean that his insights on martial arts will vanish into thin air. Those have always been a part of his strength and even the foundation of his livelihood.

The roads you have walked and the blood and sweat you have shed will all turn into experience and be imprinted in your mind.

"If we follow what Qingpingzi said, martial arts is actually inherited from witches, witches - martial arts"

There seemed to be a flash of thunder in Gu Dan's mind. After the breakthrough, his spiritual light was more vigorous than ever before, and even his thoughts were extremely clear. "Martial arts is just a poor imitation of witches! At first, those guys who were said to be able to pick up the sun and the moon with their hands and shatter mountains and rivers with their feet with their flesh and blood, the power they displayed was simply not something that today's martial arts can demonstrate.

But - in this case, isn't Qigong just a poor imitation of Qigong practitioners? Even the name hasn't changed, but the strength is already incomparable.

According to legend, Qigong practitioners pursue the innate Qi, which can swallow the sky and eat the earth, drink the morning glow, and eat the white dew. The world's first imagination of immortals began with Qigong practitioners. "

Gu Dan seemed to have grasped some kind of thread. He measured himself on two completely different yet extremely similar paths.

"It's just that the beginning and end of the legend were just as sudden. Whether it was a witch or a Qi cultivator, their legends all came to an abrupt end. After that, there were no legends about the foundation building and golden elixir realms. We directly came to the heyday of immortal cultivation. It seemed that each of these realms was natural and should be so.

Martial arts originated from witches, and Qi training originated from Qi training practitioners, but who did the Golden Core, Nascent Soul and other realms originate from? That is something that is lost in history, but even if we only compare martial arts and Qi training realms, we can still detect the similarities between them! "

Gu Dan's eyes were bright, his spirit was clear, his thoughts were flourishing, and a hundred years of practice converged in his mind at this moment.

As long as it exists, there will be traces.

As a young immortal, he could not travel through time to get a glimpse of the prosperous past, but as an up-and-coming person, he could also get a glimpse of the ancient scenery from the bits and pieces of splendor.

Martial arts, witchcraft; practicing qi, refining qi.

They even come from different systems, but they are so similar! "Babies will subconsciously imitate the movements and sounds of their elders"

Gu Dan was in deep thought.

After the witches, it was the era of Qigong practitioners.

But at the beginning, no one could succeed in becoming a Qigong practitioner.

Latecomers will, of course, learn from the experience of their predecessors and cross the river by feeling the stones. Only after reaching a certain level will they start to walk their own path.

There is no doubt that some of those Qi Refiners succeeded in the end.

But in this original realm, future generations can still get a glimpse of it through endless time.

"Qi cultivators must be imitators at first. This is the fastest and most convenient way to take root!"

Gu Dan seemed to have grasped something, not daring to relax for a moment. He understood, "The Grandmaster is the one who practices Qi, and the one who practices Qi is the Grandmaster. Their paths are different, but their forms of expression are exactly the same, without any difference!

At least, in the initial stage, using the Grandmaster to benchmark Qi training will not make any mistakes!"

Grandmaster is a realm in the martial arts, and so is Qi training? Just as a grandmaster cannot show the magic of a witch, Qi training cannot represent the glory of a Qi cultivator.

But a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

It is precisely because of the step-by-step climbing that we can achieve the subsequent achievements.

"In other words, as long as we find the records about the path of Qi Refiners, even if they don't have to be very profound, we can get a glimpse of how to reach the so-called innate realm after finding the Grandmaster!"

Gu Dan stood up suddenly, extremely excited.

The mysterious innate realm had held him back for more than seventy years.

In the past ten years or so, his martial arts skills have not made any progress at all, but he still hasn't felt any sign of "breaking through" to the next level.

It seems that this road is really cut off.

The experience that Master Ji left him, as well as the misfortunes that happened to Grandmasters Xue Wenjian, Xin, and Tan during the Xia Dynasty, all showed that any rash attempt would be tantamount to seeking death.

From them, Gu Dan could only be certain that the road existed and was extremely dangerous, but how to get there remained a mystery.

Anyone who dared to reach the innate realm in front of him died.

Each death was more miserable than the last.

He was unable to find any information about this path in the classics, so it was tantamount to saying that it was completely blocked.

But today, Gu Dan finally found hope again.

Found the "master".

Qi Refiner, Qi Refiner! The pioneers living in the next era of Wu must have the most profound understanding of the former.

Only latecomers can give a true evaluation.

Use the bones piled up by our predecessors to see the scenery at a higher level! It doesn't matter that he can't find any records about witches, because they are too old, and they are not in line with the overall immortal way, so they are excluded.

But practicing Qi is a real part of the way to immortality, and the way to immortality must also preserve some records about Qi practitioners!

As long as he knew how the Qigong practitioners continued to move forward in the "Qigong" realm equivalent to the Grandmaster, it would be equivalent to a glimpse of the next step in the martial arts! The later generations learned from their predecessors, so why can't the later generations of the later generations do the same? A hundred years of practice, a sudden enlightenment.

The thick fog that had been shrouding Gu Dan's head dissipated for the most part at once, leaving Gu Dan feeling refreshed.

"The martial arts path is about cultivating oneself from the inside out. The immortal path, although also about cultivating oneself, is from the outside in! Even if the paths are the same and the forms of expression are similar, they are not completely the same.

The witch has completed the path of digging for himself, and the rest of the latecomers can only find a way to prove themselves with external objects. After all, there is only one path to oneself, and external objects are endless! And external objects have another advantage, which is that the speed of one's own progress is extremely fast! "

Gu Dan's thoughts were clear and his feelings were deep.

If you want to become a master, you will have to endure hardship for thirty to forty years, or even longer.

But it only took him three years to break through to the middle stage of Qi training, which is the fourth level of Qi training.

Although Qingmuye has a part of the credit, is there such a genius in martial arts? Even Gu Dan, who is able to compete for the fastest master in the world, was promoted to master at the age of 31. He relied on the "Creation Furnace Pill" to skip the test of blood barrier and achieve such a rapid speed! Qingmuye is not complete now. If we compare it with spiritual roots, the speed of cultivation is probably slightly faster than that of heavenly spiritual roots.

It is four times faster than the lowest-grade spiritual root practitioner with the worst qualifications.

If we convert the data year-on-year and do not consider the barriers, even if one has been practicing for twelve years, even the lowest-grade spiritual root with the worst qualifications can still practice to the middle stage of Qi training! Of course, this does not take into account the realistic factors.

If we go by the internal situation of Ningfang, Gu Dan has a job and has obtained special permission from the Huang Dynasty. In addition, he is "weakly powerful" and is apparently the weakest one in the Law Enforcement Hall. That is why he was able to practice for three years without wavering and without being disturbed by external things.

He didn't even have to worry about the contract signed with Ningfang. The salary paid by the Law Enforcement Hall was enough to repay his debts and he even had quite a bit left over. He could be said to have devoted himself to cultivation.

If he were to be treated like an ordinary cultivator with low-grade spiritual roots, he would have to take care of the spiritual fields every day and consume his spiritual energy to work for Ning Fang to repay his debts. How much time would he have left for his own cultivation?

The consumption required is probably more than doubled!

Moreover, this is the case when Gu Dan has not purchased any cultivation techniques or various magical arts. It is impossible for an ordinary cultivator to be so comfortable and just focus on cultivation.

Facts have proved that spiritual practice not only depends on one's own efforts, but also has a huge impact on the environment.

If you can get rid of trivial matters and focus on practicing, you are already far ahead of others!

People cannot be generalized.

Don't just look at the bad side of things.

Although Gu Dan's conditions are already very good, they are still far behind those of the upper class.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Without mentioning anything else, just talking about the concentration of spiritual energy, the yellow-level area will be beaten by the earth-level area.

That is to say, the immortal way has only been in the world for less than a hundred years, and various panaceas have not yet been developed.

Otherwise, with the help of elixirs, the blessing of formations, and sufficient spiritual energy, the speed of practicing Qi training will be very fast!

“According to the records in the classics, in those immortal sects, those who practice Qi cultivation are just nominal disciples, and only those who practice foundation building can be truly considered as members of the immortal sect.

From this perspective, the conditions of those immortal gates are too harsh. But if you think about it from another angle, isn't it that the current development of the "immortal path" has reached a bottleneck? "

Gu Dan deeply understood the impact of the times on people.

When an individual lives in the times, he becomes a part of the times.

Different times and different conditions cannot be directly compared and need to be considered carefully.

In the truly prosperous world of immortal cultivation, Qi training cultivators are at the lowest level, and only those who have built a foundation can barely be considered part of the immortal path and truly embark on the path of cultivation.

Now, we can only say that there is still a long way to go.

“The impact of the times on individuals is indeed profound.

But I am an exception.”

Although he noticed this, Gu Dan was not worried.

This is the confidence that Changsheng brings me!

Ordinary people have only a limited time in their lives, so they have to try their best to grasp the tide of the times within the limited time of their lives, otherwise they will be overwhelmed by the times.

Although he is also based in the times, he is destined not to stay where he is.

He does not need to seek a moment, but only a foundation for eternity.

Watching the flowers bloom and fall, and the clouds roll and unroll in front of the yard, I feel that I will live forever and be free and at ease!

The idea that had been bothering him for a hundred years finally came to fruition, and his long-lasting strength had reached a new level. Gu Dan was in a very good mood.

"Since there is a happy event, we should celebrate and go out to drink!"

The token in Gu Dan's hand flashed, and the door to the cave slowly opened.

But I saw a man standing in front of the door with a depressed look on his face.

"Friend Lu?"

Gu Dan was startled for a moment, then said, "You've come at the right time. Come on, I was just about to get some spirit wine. Let's drink today!"

In the past three years, Gu Dan has not been completely inactive.

He even went out to get some spirit wine several times!

"You are a tortoise, aren't you?"

Lu Yu looked Gu Dan up and down again and again.

Three years, a full three years!

If the Law Enforcement Hall hadn't been short of staff recently, I would have forgotten that there was such a person! Joining the Law Enforcement Hall and daring to eat the salary without working, is this something a person can do? "Why do you say that, Brother Lu?"

Gu Dan's face was full of confusion.

"Don't play dumb in front of me. You haven't inspected the area once in the past three years. If it weren't for the recent inspection of all matters in the area by the abbey owner, you would have been forgotten."

Lu Yu said with a dark face.

"I haven't forgotten. I get my salary every month."

Gu Dan said sincerely.

“.”

Lu Yu's face turned even darker.

"No more joking, Brother Lu, do you have anything to tell me?"

Gu Dan laughed, it was a rare joke.

"The situation in the Immortal Square has been quite tense recently, and the Law Enforcement Hall needs to operate at full capacity, so your good days are over."

Lu Yu snorted, obviously feeling quite ashamed of the behavior of Gu Dan, a "parasite in the Immortal House".

I thought you were an unparalleled master who dared to fight with a foundation-building cultivator even at the cost of burning flesh and blood. I never expected that you would be corrupted as soon as you joined the organization, and the speed of your degeneration is jaw-dropping!

He was the laziest person in the Law Enforcement Hall before, and when he heard about your deeds, he said that you were incomparable.

Others are being exploited by the Immortal House, but this guy is just taking empty salaries and oppressing the Immortal House. Is that okay? How can such evil practices be tolerated? "Oh? What's the matter?"

Gu Dan finally became serious.

The Law Enforcement Hall is used to maintain order.

The immortal house that does not need the Law Enforcement Hall is a good immortal house.

So it’s a good thing to have a lot of free money!

But once the Law Enforcement Hall needs to operate at full capacity, it only means that there is a problem with the situation, a big problem.

"You want to know now? What were you doing earlier?!"

Lu Yu glanced at Gu Dan viciously and said, "Come with me, this is an internal meeting of the Law Enforcement Hall. If you come out later, I will tear down your cave!"

Following Lu Yu's footsteps, Gu Dan was very honest and said no more.

When he actually arrived at the door of the Law Enforcement Hall and stepped inside, Gu Dan took a quick glance and saw his real old acquaintance inside.

Zhuang Sheng!
