Chapter Seventeen Cultivating Strength

  In the world that ordinary people can't see with their naked eyes, white mist threads are floating out of the entire village with the incantation "Divine lamp as desired, Supreme Lord Qingyang. Illuminating the world, eternal peace!"

  Slowly, as if drawn by something, it drifted towards a newly built thatched hut behind the village.

  Liu Buji lived in this newly built thatched hut, sitting cross-legged, with the Qingyang divine lamp still placed in front of him.

  A continuous stream of light mist floated over, gently and quietly drifting into the Qingyang Divine Lamp.

  Turned into a very mysterious light, directly shining into Liu Bu's Tian Xin.

  This kind of light is called Golden Splendor in Taoism. It's also called the Light of Nature, referring to the illumination of the Light of Nature and the opening of the Mysterious Gate. Some also call it the Light of the Original Spirit!

  It is just this primordial spirit, which is the primordial essence, primordial energy and primordial spirit of the Three Treasures in Taoism.

  In his original world, in the ancient Taoist school, the final achievement of Yuanshen was fundamentally not a thing.

  He sat quietly opposite the Qingyang Divine Lamp, his eyes closed and his curtains lowered, allowing a single thread of lamp light to enter his eyes and reflect in the sea of consciousness.

  In just a few breaths, Liu Bu Yi had entered a state of meditation. He established a mysterious connection with the Qing Yang Divine Lamp, and it seemed that as he breathed and his heart beat, the lamp also began to breathe in sync with him, expanding and contracting.

  It seems that Qingyang Divine Lamp and Liu Bu Yi have established an extremely mysterious connection. As if Liu Bu Yi is the Qingyang Divine Lamp, and the Qingyang Divine Lamp is Liu Bu Yi.

  Liu Buji's heart felt a hint of joy, the light of the Qingyang Divine Lamp condensed and shone on his Tianxin. The Xing Guang appeared, illuminating the Dan Tian below.

  Guide the light in the heavenly heart, just like sunlight re-entering the dantian of the qi sea.

  At the bottom of the ocean of energy, however, there is a mass of primordial essence like an iceberg. Under the illumination of this divine light, it continuously melts and transforms into a milky white primordial energy.

  A thread of yuan shen light shines in the dan tian qi hai, this place is exactly where the yuan jing hides.

  At this moment, in Liu Bu's body. Very wonderful. In the heavenly heart, a ray of light shines down from here and falls directly into the dantian qihai, where the hidden yuanjing is illuminated by this light.

  Just like ice and snow melting in the sunlight, it vaporizes and transforms into a thin, silvery mist.

  Liu Bu had already gained a certain enlightenment the last time, which was the foundation-building skill of refining essence and transforming energy in his world of ancient Taoist mysticism.

  It's just that in his world, building a foundation is extremely difficult. But here, with the help of the divine lamp, it has become much simpler.

  Unbeknownst to him, a white light flashed across Liu's eyes. In his dantian, no more yuanqi was produced.

  He was slightly regretful, but the primordial spirit of the sea had been refined.

  One day, the innate essence produced is limited after all. The innate energy that can be refined is also limited.

  In his world of ancient Taoist alchemy, the focus is on refining essence and transforming energy. The foundation must be laid over a period of one hundred days to generate enough primordial energy to condense into the golden elixir.

  He sighed a little, now is the incense fire's willpower enough to use. However, his own daily output of yuan jing's power is not enough to refine.

  "It's just that the incense fire is sufficient, but the original essence isn't enough to refine!" Liu was somewhat worried: "The qingyang sect's kung fu must be different from the Taoist methods of my original world. Unfortunately, Master has gone into seclusion, otherwise I could have asked him for guidance on the next steps in my training!"

  It's just that Zhen Yangzi didn't teach him the next move. It's just that Liu Buji wasn't too fond of this set of moves, that's all.

  This is a set of fist methods, roughly similar to the internal school boxing in his original world.

  It was roughly Liu Bu Yi who was originally a cultivator in this world, there wasn't much struggle, so it wasn't about pursuing magical powers from the start.

  But in this world, danger lurks everywhere, without any means of self-defense or survival, every step is difficult to take!

  So, apart from teaching Liu Bu Yi this set of Hui Guang Fan Zhao, Lian Jing Hua Qi's kung fu, he also taught him this set of fist techniques.

  Liu Bu stepped up slowly, like a giant standing between heaven and earth, standing among thousands of horses and soldiers. When countless enemy troops rushed over, he suddenly drew his sword and stood still, scaring away millions of enemy soldiers.

  This is what is called the Divine General's Eight Great Styles, taken from the stories of eight famous generals in this world who have been passed down through history. It is said that these eight famous generals were so renowned that after their deaths they were worshipped as gods.

  The first move of drawing his sword and mounting his horse was enough to make him a famous general named Chen Xinzhi. His reputation spread far and wide, and the enemy troops were so frightened by just hearing his name that they fled in disarray at the mere sight of him.

  Once, he hid his banner. When the enemy came to attack, he suddenly raised his banner, drew his sword and stood in front of the army on horseback. The enemy saw Chen Xing's appearance, and the million-strong army collapsed in fear.

  This deity's eight forms are taken from the stories of these eight unbeatable deities. It is a very advanced fist method, requiring coordination with breathing and internal energy guidance, body movements, and mental visualization.

  When these three are combined, the martial arts cultivated have the kind of prestige that ancient famous generals had when they fought bloody battles on the battlefield and thousands of troops and horses retreated.

  Inner energy follows the movement, constantly flowing through every part of the body's meridians, nourishing and strengthening.

  At that moment, Liu was completely one with his horse, forgetting his own body and everything else. It was as if an ancient god of war had possessed him, fighting fiercely on the battlefield.

  He suddenly realized, strangely, this should be a brilliant martial art!

  In this world, the military is just a branch of Confucianism. The Confucians in this world are not weak at all, and they pursue the ideal of "going out as generals and coming in as prime ministers". There are no poor and weak Confucian scholars like Liu Bei who cannot even kill a chicken.

  Wu Zhong Liu's family, although passing down the "Zhēnyuán Lǐ", did not oppose martial arts training. Liu Bü Yì had also heard and seen a lot, but after being robbed of his home, he still hadn't thoroughly organized those memories.

  He suddenly remembered that in his memory, there seemed to be a set of Confucian cultivation incantations. It was called the Heart Sutra of All Saints, which could communicate with the many great sages and half-saints who had entered the Confucian Temple in the past, borrowing their power to exert unimaginable might!

  Only when the Confucian temples were destroyed and all the holy images were suppressed, could the communication with the great sages of Confucius be cut off. The heart of these saints was left with only an empty shell.

  However, what made Liu feel strange was this point. How strong was the power of Confucianism in the past? Moreover, they had not yet become as corrupt as the Qing dynasty in their original world, and they assisted the imperial court, so how could they be invaded by the bald-headed people and eliminated so cleanly?
