It seems that I have been sleeping for many years, and I am lost and silent in the dark until I suddenly see the glimmer of light. A little familiar appears in the distant and unfamiliar memory. Although I still don't know what it is, there is a strong shiver flowing through my body like an electric current, and I suddenly shout for birth!
"Ah..."
With a cry, Shen Shi suddenly turned over and sat up, gasped, and looked around in shock. The familiar scene of the stone room caught his eye. After a long time, he slowly came back to himself. He had just fallen asleep in a daze, as if he had had a nightmare
The scene in the dream seemed to be blurred for a moment, but after wiping his forehead, he found that he was in a cold sweat, and he did not know what he had dreamt of. He just sat on the bed for a while. After his mind completely calmed down, he did not recall. Instead, he found that his body felt very light, especially energetic, as if his whole body was full of energy.
Shen Shi subconsciously looks at the edge of the bed not far away. There is an old hourglass standing there. The white sand grains in it flow silently and silently. At this moment, only the last remnants are left. Shen Shi frowned, and a look of surprise crossed his face.
This jade hourglass was given by Father Shen Tai when he left. As a thought, the sand in it completely flows from one side to the other, which is exactly an hour. Shen Shi clearly remembered that when he started practicing tonight, he put the sand in the hourglass at one end and began to count backwards.
That is to say, it has only lasted nearly an hour since the beginning of cultivation?
Shen Shi pondered for a moment, jumped off the bed, moved on the ground, turned his head, bent over, waved his arms, and finally jumped a few times. Finally, he clearly confirmed that he was really in good spirits at the moment, as if he was eager to go to Hongbeng Village to peel twenty or thirty ghost faced shrimps!
But this is wrong
Shen Shi stopped slowly and frowned more and more tightly. Whether it was the record of Xingluo Secret Recipe or the admonition of senior brother Su He, senior brother Wang Gen, when teaching martial arts, or even what Sun You, He Xiaomei, Jiang Hongguang and other new friends have talked with him since the beginning of their cultivation, the meaning of what they said is exactly the same, that is, after the cultivation of the human race, especially the new people who have just begun to absorb spiritual power from the crystal to bring spirit into the body, After each practice, the whole person must be extremely tired, especially mentally.
In the words of Elder Martial Brother Wang Gen, that is, when absorbing spiritual power from the spirit crystal into the physical qi, there are countless mysteries in the world, but in the final analysis, all of them are drawn by the spirit. So all the friars' reactions after training are tired, which is the basic reason why friars can only practice once a day to bring spirit into the body. If they are too eager to practice too many times, people's spirit will not be able to bear it at first. If they forcibly go against the sky, they will become an idiot within ten and a half days.
Even the friars in the deeper realm of Tao are also in the same situation, because although the friars in the Ningyuan realm and even the divine realm are in the higher realm of spiritual power and progress, both physically and mentally are far better than the friars in the refining realm, the spiritual power they absorb from the spirit crystal every time is also greatly increased, and the spirit they consume is also greatly increased. At most, they will not have such a strong sense of fatigue after training, but most of the senior friars, Still only practice once a day.
For a long time, this is an accepted truth in the Hongmeng cultivation world. Shen Shi learned it from the disciples of the sect shortly after he joined the Lingxiao Sect.
However, the current situation is obviously not right
The excitement of bringing spirit into the body for the first time this evening has faded away at this time. Shen Shi's deep confusion has replaced it in his mind. He has pondered for a long time, but still hasn't figured out a reason why. He simply sits down beside the bed, closes his eyes, and slowly passes the practice process of this evening from the beginning to the end, one scene at a time in his mind, trying to find clues or something strange.
Lingjing, hold tight, meditate, concentrate, practice, perception, darkness, shimmer, psychic power, chase, lead the spirit, enter the body. All the processes, he seems to have cut pieces one by one and recalled the past little by little. But he always thought of the end. He found that everything was very normal, completely the same as usual, except that there was no sign of physical body eating back tonight. His first practice was successful
Later, he was tired and fell on the bed. In the great joy and excitement of completing the cultivation for the first time, at that time, he also felt as if unstoppable fatigue swept over him normally, and then he fell asleep in a daze.
When you are conscious again, you are now when you wake up.
Shen Shi's eyebrows suddenly wrinkled, as if he had grasped something. He concentrated on thinking back and tried to remember the moment when he was going to sleep, but everything seemed to be blurry, and his mind was chaotic, or rather muddy
Is it really what happened when I was sleeping? But I clearly didn't do anything. In retrospect, I didn't think about anything, but I was tired and wanted to have a good sleep. If there was a refreshing person at that time
Refresh your mind!
Suddenly, these four words flashed across Shen Shi's mind like lightning, as if they suddenly lit up the dark corner in the dark. His body immediately shook. At this moment, another name slowly surfaced in his mind.
Qingxin Mantra, is it Qingxin Mantra... the secret that he has been hiding and hesitating to touch?
At this time, Shen Shi's face looked strange, as if he was suddenly happy and confused. He turned around and hesitated, reached into the innermost part of the bed, groped in a secret corner under the quilt, and then turned back, a black scroll was already on his hand.
When I first entered the Lingxiao Sect, Shen Shi realized that the seven leaf golden sunflower medallion on the Qingxin Mantra scroll was likely to cause me trouble when I went through the swallow crystal toad pass. Since then, I dare not carry it with me. It happened that Lingxiao Sect assigned a separate cave to each new disciple, and the cloud rune could not be opened without me, so Shen Shi hid it carefully in the cave.
After getting the scroll of Qingxin Mantra, Shen Shi naturally looked at it many times in secret, but he was still worried about it, and did not dare to practice at will. After that, there were many things, such as flesh back eating, red clam village shelling shrimp, which made him live a full and busy life in this period of time. He even forgot the Qingxin Mantra for a while.
Who knows, I finally got used to the flesh back bite for the first time and successfully cultivated the Heart Clearing Mantra in Yuezi.
Have you really cultivated? Shen Shi felt uneasy. He got up and moved carefully. After checking himself, he finally decided that he was really nothing special. On the contrary, his spirit seemed to be particularly bright and full, which was totally different from Sun You and others who complained to him that they were tired like a dead dog after each training.
Or is this mysterious Qingxin Mantra really just a special skill to refresh the mind?
Shen Shi's heart suddenly jumps for no reason
※※※
April 28, sunny.
In the early morning, when he walked out of the cave, Shen Shi looked up at the sky and found that today's sky seemed bluer than usual. There was not even a cloud in the endless sky, and the sky was as clear and transparent as a huge and flawless sapphire. The sea tide is still surging on the beach of White Fish Bay. The sound of the sea waves is far away. The sea breeze seems to be smaller than usual. And I often see seabirds flying and fishing along the coast, but I haven't seen them today.
Shen Shi stood at the entrance of the cave and stretched out in the direction of the sea. He felt that the day seemed particularly beautiful and his mood was certainly very good.
That night three days ago, he finally managed to bring spirit into the body for the first time. That is to say, since then, he has officially embarked on the road of cultivation and can be called a friar reluctantly, although it is still the first stage of the lowest refining state.
However, which friar in the world didn't start here?
Now in the initial stage of the Qi refining world, his spiritual power is naturally weak. But from now on, as long as the follow-up Lingjing can keep up with him and his cultivation is not lax, his spiritual power will naturally become stronger and stronger. He will practice for a long time. As he absorbs more and more spiritual power, and with a few chances, he can get through the several joints and difficulties of the surrounding qi channels, his Taoist practice will naturally improve. From the initial stage to the middle and high level of the Qi refining world, he can try to open up the Dantian Jade House, Peek at the pass of Ningyuan.
As for the many elder martial brothers and sisters who have been trapped in the gas refining place for many years on the herring island, at this moment, young Shen Shi did not remember at all.
In addition, there is another reason why he is in a good mood.
After repeated hesitation, deliberation and internal strife, he finally could not help but secretly began to practice the mysterious Qingxin Mantra. After several days of practice, Shen Shi finally determined that the Qingxin Mantra did not seem to do him any harm. On the contrary, this mysterious mantra had an amazing effect on restoring his spirit, especially when he felt a strong sense of fatigue after he had once cultivated to bring spirit into the body. Then he ran the Qingxin Mantra again, which had an amazing effect on restoring physical strength and spirit.
Every time you practice the Heart Clearing Mantra, all the feelings of mental fatigue will be swept away. The whole person is just like a person who has just taken a bath and is refreshed. His mental head is extremely good. Even Shen Shi had the courage to secretly try to practice for the second time in a day, that is, holding the Holy Crystal to lead the spirit into the body for the second time.
He did it.
Even he didn't dare to hope too much. He just tried by chance, unexpectedly, really, successfully!
He managed to bring spirit into the body twice in a day, and after this second attempt, he had the same reaction as the first one before, but he simply felt a great sense of mental fatigue. However, none of the signs that senior brother Wang Gen said excessive cultivation would do great harm to the body appeared.
However, the magic of the Qingxin Mantra seems to have ended. After practicing it twice in a day, no matter how he practices the Qingxin Mantra, his body has no response at all. It seems that the Qingxin Mantra can only restore his spirit once in a day.
