Chapter 159

After sensing his body for a while, Zhang Xiaohua could not help but want to cry. How could he bully people like this? It was fine if his aptitude was poor, but he could not sense the endless Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi in the world like what was mentioned in the [Carefree Heart Sutra]. He had worked so hard for such a long time and finally managed to draw the Yuan Qi into his body today. How could this trace of Yuan Qi suddenly disappear?

It was a pity that Zhang Xiaohua did not have another pair of eyes in his body, so he naturally could not search for it. The only thing he could do was try again.

With his first success, he could be considered to have accumulated experience. In the future, he would be familiar with sensing the Yuan Qi. Not long after, Zhang Xiaohua found another trace of Yuan Qi. It also came down, and with a pull from Zhang Xiaohua, it changed sides and fell into the embrace of Zhang Xiaohua. However, this door was as deep as the sea. After entering Zhang Xiaohua's body, it disappeared without a trace.

After doing this a few times, Zhang Xiaohua no longer felt resentful. The Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi was outside his body and not his. As long as he drew the Yuan Qi into his body, then it was surnamed Zhang. Who cared where it was?

As long as it did not run out, there would be a day when he would discover it.

Moreover, the [Carefree Heart Sutra] did not mention how Yuan Qi came out. Looking at He Tianshu and the rest's cultivation, he had never heard of inner strength running out on its own.

Could it be that it would be "released" by him?

Speaking of which, it was strange. Zhang Xiaohua just sat cross-legged on the ridge of the medicinal field and drew a lot of Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi into his body in just one afternoon. At this time, Zhang Xiaohua was also a little puzzled. Although he had just started drawing Yuan Qi into his body, he could still draw Yuan Qi, right?

Why couldn't he sense the Yuan Qi that filled the world?

Why was it all strand by strand?

And it all came down from above. It was not as the [Carefree Heart Sutra] said, that it was scattered between heaven and earth.

Could it be that He Tianshu and the others' internal energy was cultivated from the outside like this?

With a belly full of questions, Zhang Xiaohua returned to the small courtyard. Very naturally, he went to knock on He Tianshu's door. He Tianshu had already returned from the pharmacy and was studying Ethereal Steps in his room. When he saw Zhang Xiaohua enter the room, he smiled and asked, "Zhang Xiaohua, is there a problem with practicing Reckless Bull Force?"

Zhang Xiaohua was stunned and said, "Captain He, you're really a deity. You're really good at divination."

He Tianshu waved his hand and said, "It's nothing. Although I was young back then, when I received my first internal energy cultivation method, I was just like you now. I was in a hurry to cultivate and accidentally made a mistake. If it weren't for my senior and junior brothers discovering it early, I would have been crippled.

I've heard of your Reckless Bull Force before. It's easy to understand, and the circulation path is simple. It's suitable for people like you who have patience and don't have anyone guiding them. "

Then, he raised his eyebrows and giggled, "Have you been busy all afternoon?

How's your practice of Reckless Bull Force? "

Zhang Xiaohua blushed and said in a small voice, "I don't feel anything. I still can't feel the Qi."

He Tianshu laughed and said, "It's okay. The feeling of Qi is related to each person's talent. You can't be discouraged and try more. Maybe you'll be able to feel it soon.

Back then, I also used two whole days to feel the Qi. "

"How long does the fastest method take?" Zhang Xiaohua was curious.

"Immediately!" He Tianshu answered without hesitation.

"Ah?!" Zhang Xiaohua's mouth opened so wide that a duck egg could be stuffed in.

"That's right. Immediately."

He Tianshu smiled and replied, "There are countless geniuses in this world. From what I remember back then, very few people can immediately feel the Qi. Of course, most people can only feel it after one or two days."

Zhang Xiaohua continued to ask, "Then, Captain He, is there anyone who can't feel the Qi?"

He Tianshu frowned and said, "I don't remember anyone like that. It's still the same old saying. The people that I picked out from Misty School are all talented and intelligent people. Very few of them can feel the Qi after three or four days."

Zhang Xiaohua's heart sank. She then asked, "Then, Captain He, do you feel the Qi from the outside world in wisps or lumps?"

When He Tianshu heard this, he was stunned. He then laughed and said, "Zhang Xiaohua, Zhang Xiaohua, you really know how to joke. There's no real Qi in the outside world. The feeling of Qi is just a hypothesis. I believe that the" Reckless Bull Force "also has the meaning of a hypothesis. Pretend that there's Qi flowing into your body from your forehead. That's the embryonic form of internal strength.

"Internal Strength or Internal Strength, you have to move the Qi yourself to open up the acupuncture points in your body and circulate it in your meridians. Every time it circulates, it will increase a little. This is the essence of increasing internal strength. Of course, there are also some medicine that can increase internal strength. But I've never heard of being able to absorb Qi from outside the body. If that's the case, we can just absorb Qi from outside the body every day. Why do we have to sit cross-legged and cultivate our internal strength?"

When he saw Zhang Xiaohua's puzzled face, He Tianshu explained, "Also, the meridians in the human body are the containers for internal strength. The size of the container determines the amount of internal strength. We cultivate internal strength for two reasons. On one hand, we need to increase our internal strength. On the other hand, we need to expand our meridians. Only when both are increased can it be considered a high level internal strength cultivation method.

"Although your" Reckless Bull Force "is easy to learn, the circulation path is very simple. Every time you circulate it, the increase in your internal strength is limited. Also, this cultivation method has very little effect on expanding your meridians.

That's why there are very few people who suffer from Qi Deviation. "

"But," Zhang Xiaohua was a little anxious and said, "I can't feel internal strength from outside the body. Then how can I generate internal strength in my body?"

He Tianshu smiled and said, "The appearance is born from the heart.

The generation of internal strength is like this. As long as you have a sense of Qi, the meridians in your body will naturally generate internal strength. It will be warm and if you circulate it according to the cultivation method, the internal strength will follow your thoughts and flow in your meridians like a little mouse. "

"If you cultivate for a long time, the mouse will naturally grow." He Tianshu added on as if it was a matter of fact.

"Warm flow?

Flow in my meridians? "

Zhang Xiaohua's heart skipped a beat. In the past, when she cultivated the Big Dipper Fist, there was a warm flow. She guessed that was internal strength.

However, as for the meridians, Zhang Xiaohua thought about the cultivation method in the 《Carefree Heart Sutra》. It didn't seem to be the same as the warm flow. So she asked again, "Captain He, then is the movement of internal strength in the meridians the same?"

He Tianshu smiled and said, "Of course it's not the same. The difference in every cultivation method is in the use of the meridians and the movement of internal strength.

If the 《Ethereal Divine Art》 is the same as your 《Reckless Bull Strength》, then can it still be called the 《Ethereal Divine Art》? "

Zhang Xiaohua suddenly understood.

However, she still didn't give up and asked, "Captain He, is what you said true?

Internal strength can't be absorbed from the outside world? "

He Tianshu said resolutely and decisively, "Definitely, definitely, definitely!"

Zhang Xiaohua was speechless. When she cultivated the 《Carefree Heart Sutra》, she really felt the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth. She also guided it into her body. What was going on?

She originally wanted to ask He Tianshu about the disappearance of the Yuan Qi in her body. Now that she had completely overturned her question about the feeling of Qi, she might as well not ask.

He Tianshu saw Zhang Xiaohua's discouraged appearance and went forward to pat him on the shoulder, saying, "Zhang Xiaohua, failure is the mother of success.

You have to be unafraid of hardship, sacrifice, and sweat. If you can't get the feeling of Qi in a day, then use two days. If two days aren't enough, then use three days. If you really can't get it after one or two months, then it's fine. We don't cultivate inner strength cultivation methods and change to outer strength cultivation methods. Look at our Misty School's Stone Cow, they don't cultivate inner strength cultivation methods, but aren't they still very powerful? "

Zhang Xiaohua didn't make any excuses and casually looked at He Tianshu's table. He Tianshu looked at his appearance and said awkwardly, "The second layer of the Ethereal Steps is still a bit difficult. I've looked at it, but I still don't understand it. You say, it's clearly a footwork technique, but there are some parts that I don't understand. It's simply inconceivable. I really don't know how Big Sect Leader and the others managed to cultivate it.

Don't be anxious. Once I understand it, I'll immediately tell you. You should first learn your 《Reckless Bull Strength》 and find the feeling of Qi. "

Zhang Xiaohua also lost interest and said, "Okay, Team Leader He. You look at it first. I'll go back and think about it."

After saying this, Zhang Xiaohua lowered his head and walked out.

He originally thought that he would be able to find a satisfactory answer from He Tianshu, but now, Zhang Xiaohua was even more confused. What was going on? What He Tianshu said was completely different from the 《Carefree Heart Sutra》 that he cultivated. Could he have cultivated it wrongly?

Behind him, He Tianshu looked at Zhang Xiaohua's back that was filled with thoughts and was secretly worried for him. The path of inner force cultivation techniques had always been about aptitude. If one couldn't find the feeling of Qi for a long time, then there was no way to produce inner force, much less channel it and forge the meridians. If Zhang Xiaohua could forget his fist technique to that extent, then his inner force wouldn't be able to escape the same fate.

Immediately after, He Tianshu recalled Zhang Xiaohua's intelligence when learning Ethereal Steps. However, Ethereal Steps' qinggong also required inner strength as a foundation. Without inner strength, no matter how good one's technique was, it would be useless without any foundation.

Thinking of this, He Tianshu could only let out a long sigh. Rousing his spirits, he began to study the Ethereal Steps.

Zhang Xiaohua returned to the small house, feeling unwilling to give up. He took out the 《Carefree Heart Sutra》 again and carefully read through the first level of the cultivation technique. After confirming that there were no mistakes in his memory, he closed the secret manual and pondered in his heart.

The Heart Sutra clearly stated that the Heaven and Earth was filled with endless Yuan Qi. The amount of Yuan Qi absorbed into the body depended on the depth of the cultivator's skills. It wasn't like his perception today where the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth was in threads. If he didn't have the ability to sense Yuan Qi, then it was fine. Perhaps he couldn't recognize the endless Yuan Qi when facing it. But now that he could sense it, then naturally he would be able to sense a large amount of Yuan Qi. It couldn't be that he could sense some and not some, right?

Suddenly, Zhang Xiaohua's eyes lit up. He had just read the first level of the 《Carefree Heart Sutra》. It might not be recorded, but it couldn't be that there were no records of the cultivation technique after that?

So he hurriedly opened the 《Carefree Heart Sutra》 again.

But what made Zhang Xiaohua disappointed was that after he carefully read from beginning to end, he still couldn't find any answers from this secret manual. The other ten levels of the cultivation technique also talked about the path of cultivation and the description of realms. It seemed that only the first level slightly touched on the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth.

However, Zhang Xiaohua wasn't without any gains. At the end of the 《Carefree Heart Sutra》, it talked about another method of absorbing the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth.

This method wasn't used to absorb the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth in a gaseous state, but a solid Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth called a Yuan Stone.

According to the records of the 《Carefree Heart Sutra》, although the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth permeated the entire world, but the density of the Yuan Qi in different places was different. In some special places, the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth was shockingly dense. After a long time, it would condense into a Yuan Stone. According to the time it took to form the Yuan Stone, the Yuan Stone also came in different sizes. The small ones were like broad beans, while the large ones were like walnuts. These Yuan Stones were the crystallization of the Yuan Qi and naturally contained a lot of Yuan Qi. It could be absorbed by the cultivator for a long time. After the Yuan Stone was absorbed, it would slowly shrink until it completely disappeared.

Zhang Xiaohua was very happy and immediately committed this method to memory. However, the last sentence of the method poured cold water on his head. This method could only be used after the cultivation of the 《Carefree Heart Sutra》 to the ninth level. Otherwise, large amounts of Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth would surge into the cultivator's body and cause the cultivator's weak meridians to explode, causing the cultivator to explode and die.

Zhang Xiaohua pursed his lips and put the 《Carefree Heart Sutra》 back into his clothes. He thought to himself that it was indeed useless again. Not to mention what the Yuan Stone looked like and where he could find it, just looking at the current situation, he hadn't even entered the first level. Who knew when he would be able to cultivate to the ninth level?

Even if he had the Yuan Stone, he wouldn't dare to absorb it.

At night, Zhang Xiaohua went to the forest as usual. First, he practiced his fist techniques, then his sword techniques and his qinggong.

Needless to say, there was no need to talk about his fist technique and sword technique. His qinggong was also becoming more and more proficient. Although he did not have internal energy as a foundation, Zhang Xiaohua's current figure was also very different from before. He used his movement technique to run in the forest, and it actually looked like he was using qinggong. However, he could not run high, so it was a waste of his elegant spirit.

After doing his homework, Zhang Xiaohua picked a spot under a tree and sat down cross-legged confidently. He circulated the inner strength of the 《Carefree Heart Sutra》 and prepared to sense the Yuan Qi in the outside world and draw it into his body.

However, after meditating for a long time, Zhang Xiaohua's senses also roamed outside for a long time, but he still couldn't find any Yuan Qi. Even the trace of Yuan Qi that he had felt in the afternoon was nowhere to be found.

Helpless, Zhang Xiaohua stood up again and patted the dust off his body. What was going on?

Could it be that there was no Yuan Qi at night?

Zhang Xiaohua was depressed. He was just practicing the 《Carefree Heart Sutra》. Why was there so much trouble? It was either something was wrong here or there. It wasn't easy to find the Yuan Qi, but it disappeared in the afternoon. Where was he going to find it?

Actually, he didn't think about it. In this world, learning and cultivation was best if there was someone to guide you. Although the secret manual was the essence of the theory, it recorded other people's experiences. Everyone was different, and there would definitely be differences in cultivation. These differences needed practical experience to make up for. Otherwise, why would it be said that great teachers produce great disciples? Although there were self-taught talents, they were just a drop in the ocean.

However, the idea of "where should I find the missing Yuan Qi" reminded Zhang Xiaohua. Didn't he feel the Yuan Qi for the first time in the medicinal field at noon?

Since he couldn't find it in the forest at night, he might as well try the medicinal field.

Since there was still some time before midnight, he wasn't afraid that he wouldn't be able to make it back.

Under the moonlight, the medicinal field was exceptionally quiet. If there wasn't a gentle breeze, the herbs swaying in the wind could be seen clearly under the moonlight.

It was a wonderful night, but he did not know how lucky Zhang Xiaohua was.

Zhang Xiaohua first sat on the ridge of the field, and didn't immediately practice "nine shallow and one deep".

This was progress. The secret manual didn't say that one needed to calm down before practicing. Without the guidance of a master, one could only gain this experience through trial and error.

When Zhang Xiaohua felt that he was ready, he then used the breathing method of the 《Carefree Heart Sutra》 to slowly adjust his breathing frequency and gradually enter the state of emptiness.

When Zhang Xiaohua released his perception, he couldn't help but be shocked. He almost lost his mind and lost his state of mind.

Why?

As soon as Zhang Xiaohua released his fish-like perception, he discovered that there was a lot of Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth outside. Wisps of Yuan Qi fell from the sky like rain, more than five times more than during the day. Although it was very different from the description in the 《Carefree Heart Sutra》, it was still a lot more than before.

Zhang Xiaohua happily used the method of the heart sutra to guide the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth. Strangely enough, as soon as Zhang Xiaohua guided the first wisp of Yuan Qi into his body, the other Yuan Qi seemed to have heard the bugle horn and all rushed to him.

Zhang Xiaohua suddenly understood. Previously, he thought that the guiding of Yuan Qi was like guiding wisps of Yuan Qi in the daytime. That would take too long to cultivate one's inner strength. Now that he looked at it, under the condition of abundant Yuan Qi, as long as he guided the first wisp of Yuan Qi, the other wisps of Yuan Qi would follow. This was the real trick. It seemed that he didn't take the wrong path.

At this time, Zhang Xiaohua was extremely happy. The hundred thousand pores on his body were like babies with mouths, competing to suck in the limited amount of Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth. The Yuan Qi also seemed to be endless. It was just that the amount was very small each time, but the advantage was that it was endless.

Thus, Zhang Xiaohua, who was overjoyed, completely forgot about time in this unexpected state. How could he still know what time it was? There seemed to be a faint smile on his face that was devoid of joy or sorrow.

Just as that smile appeared, it immediately froze on his face. The pitiful Zhang Xiaohua immediately fell into a dream that a certain senior from the Misty School would be extremely envious of.

In his dream, Zhang Xiaohua was still sitting cross-legged. The special breathing method was still the same, and the gurgling stream of Yuan Qi was still flowing into his body. Only, that flickering in his dream, under the stimulation of the "Nine Shallow and One Deep", was once again deeply magnified. An invisible frequency was emitted from Zhang Xiaohua's body, coinciding with the stars in the night sky.
