The light was dim and there was a slight rustling sound.
The wolf-hair brush moved in Lu Liangsheng's hand, the tip of the brush dipped in ink and sparkled with fire. He wrote the words "人" and "道" with a stroke and a pull, and then wrote "乾坤" in a continuous and rapid manner.
—The universe of humanity.
On the four characters, there was an imperceptible feeling, like the smoke that drifted and condensed, and then sank back into the handwriting, revealing a sense of simplicity and solemnity. The spiritual energy in Lu Liangsheng's body was rotating faintly, driving the air flow and keeping the air in the cave fresh.
Rustle, rustle…
In the quiet cave, there is only the sound of the pen tip touching the paper. The scholar who is writing stares at the white paper with a focused and steady gaze, and the pen tip moves slowly on the paper. On the paper are the four words "humanity, heaven and earth", arranged densely and orderly.
Anyone who can read can understand every word, but in Lu Liangsheng's eyes, there is a deeper level of obscurity - combining the great righteousness with the righteous way of heaven and earth to integrate his own way.
Three years ago, after bringing Hong Lian into the temple to worship the incense and help her become a deity, he began to calm down and ponder the Nascent Soul Realm. Although ordinary practice was stable, it was too slow. At the wedding of Erniu's family, he saw the popularity that ordinary people could not reach gathering and lingering, and he had some ideas.
The way of the world is nothing more than joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, sourness, sweetness, bitterness and spiciness. By using these mundane elements, we can comprehend the way of human beings and thereby achieve the Nascent Soul realm.
During the past three years, Lu Liangsheng taught his three disciples to practice separately, and also summarized the magic he knew. He drew a diagram of "The Right Way of Qiankun" which guides the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to irrigate the meridians and acupoints of the limbs and bones. With a slight modification, the guiding spiritual energy can also absorb human fireworks and comprehend the human way.
Unlike in strange stories, martial arts masters would create their own martial arts secrets upon a sudden realization and then establish their own school.
Lu Liangsheng sighed and put his brush down beside the inkstone. He always felt that he had a talent for practicing Taoism, reading and painting, but it took him three full years to really start working on it before he had any experience.
"I really am not a very intelligent person."
During the three years, he tried to integrate many magic spells into "The Way of Humanity and the Universe". Most of them were successful in his hands. However, when he practiced it at the end, he found that it was difficult to make a breakthrough in "The Way of Humanity and the Universe". That's when he wanted to use the great energy to boost his cultivation. He had a vague opportunity to touch the great realm of Nascent Soul.
"It's better to go to a sect like that. They have a systematic training system. I'm not like a casual cultivator like me. I have to rely on myself for everything. My master is a demon cultivator, and their training methods are different... Forget it. There's no point in thinking about these things."
call.
Exhaling, Lu Liangsheng walked to the stone couch, sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and the spiritual energy hovering around him accelerated. The spirit gathering array in front of the couch was also attracting the spiritual energy from the surrounding mountains, which seeped through the solid mountain and entered the cave. At the same time, the joy and anger of the villagers also turned into wisps of invisible air, swirling around Lu Liangsheng and entering his body together with the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, nourishing his body and sinking into the sea of spiritual consciousness.
In the small world inside the body, the nebula with countless spots slowly rotates, and the spiritual energy absorbed into it also becomes a part of the nebula, accelerating the nourishment of the golden elixir in the middle that is like the sun.
Lu Liangsheng stood in this world of concentration, with his spleen earth paving the way, his liver wood forming a forest, his lungs metal mixed between the rocks, and his kidney water turning into a silver belt winding through his feet.
When the Nascent Soul is reached, the transformation of the Five Elements into Qi will be the final step, which is the conception of a living being.
"One more charge today."
Lu Liangsheng ascended above this world and looked at the golden elixir spinning in the nebula above his head. He stretched out his arms, spread his palms like claws, and thought about the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth in this small world within his body.
The right claw sucked, and the arm raised: "Golden Transformation of Ten Thousand Families"
Boom—
Between the winding mountains, the rocks and soil broke apart, and a cold white light rushed up to the sky.
Lu Liangsheng turned his head, waved his left arm, and the thought came to his mind again.
"The wooden sleeping equipment of all families!"
Green light flashed as the swaying green trees gathered into a beam that shot towards the sky. The moment it passed by him, Lu Liangsheng suddenly turned around and faced the earth.
"Water carries the life of all living things!"
Black water light appeared, and thoughts came one after another.
"Fire opens the wisdom of all people!"
"The earth nourishes the bodies of all spirits!"
The ground below turned into nothingness, and the other four rays of light crossed the sky. Lu Liangsheng spread out his palms, and all of them flew over and turned into colorful balls of light.
'Five Elements Transformed into Qi!'
He bent his fingers to hold the ball of light, and the five colors representing the internal organs gradually rotated and merged, forming a vortex, causing Lu Liangsheng's whole body to tremble slightly.
'go!'
At a certain moment, Lu Liangsheng stepped firmly on the void beneath his feet, looked up at the golden elixir that was as big as the sun above his head, held up the five elements of light in his hands, and activated all his magic power.
boom!
The ball of light broke apart, stirring up a circle of air waves in Lu Liangsheng's hands. A beam of five-colored light shot directly to the lower end of the nebula and instantly reached the center.
In the center of the rotating nebula, mysterious magic patterns appeared under the five-colored light, quickly spreading to the huge golden elixir and enveloping it.
'Gather the spirits to help me—'
Lu Liangsheng clenched his teeth, his spirit following his heart, and the spirit gathering array in front of his seated body suddenly shone brightly, and the three connected points on the mountain tops lit up almost at the same time.
Yanzhi crossed her front legs and rested her head on them, crawling on a rock under the waterfall, basking in the sunset. She felt the aura around her stirring, her long ears trembled, and she sat up abruptly, raising her head. In her eyes, the scroll behind the waterfall broke through the water curtain and shot out a spiritual beam.
On the other two hills, the Vermilion Bird cried and spread its flaming wings, and Xiangliu roared, scaring the people in Lujia Village who were having dinner so much that they almost dropped their bowls on the ground.
They all ran out of the house, and Yan Chixia and others who were arguing on the dam also felt the unusual atmosphere.
When he raised his eyes, he saw three spiritual beams shooting towards the Qixia Mountain in the west from different places. The forest was shaking wildly. The Toad Taoist, who was taking an afternoon nap, had just opened his eyes when his coiled body was blown over, revealing his white belly. The next moment, he was blown into the air by the wind. His long tongue popped out of his mouth and wrapped around a nearby tree. He hung in the air like a kite, dancing and screaming with his tongue in his mouth.
"What the hell is going on... What a strong wind, quack..."
…
The spiritual beam seeped through the mountain and entered the cave. The spiritual energy fed back by the spirit gathering array illuminated the body on the bed. In this small world, Lu Liangsheng's magic power increased again, and the five-colored light pillars he pushed out seeped into the golden elixir bit by bit, just like a human creature being conceived in the mother's womb.
Click…
The golden elixir began to crack.
Hearing this light sound, Lu Liangsheng's face finally showed some expression, and the corners of his mouth slightly curved. The beam of light that was shot out seemed to be exhausted and gradually disappeared in his hand. It followed the gap in the golden elixir and turned into air flocs and floated in.
The golden elixir seemed to have turned into an eggshell, crystal clear, with vapor rising and swirling inside, revealing the outline of a little person sitting cross-legged.
"It's done!"
Lu Liangsheng clenched his fists in surprise and confusion. He had failed five times before taking this step. Every time he failed, he almost suffered a backlash. It felt like he had a serious illness and could only lie half-dead. Even if he could move, he would be like an ordinary person and could not use his magic power for two or three months.
So, in the past three years, apart from going to the temple at the foot of the mountain in the early morning, he rarely showed up in public, even his parents rarely saw him. Of course, there was also the reason that he didn't want them to see his appearance after failure.
Lu Liangsheng regained consciousness after calming his mind, but without closing his eyes. Feeling that he had just entered the Nascent Soul stage, he suddenly shook off his sleeves with both hands and made a finger gesture to rest his knees.
"The Yang Spirit leaves the body—"
A phantom flew out from his body, passed through the thick and dense rock formations, and rose to the top of the mountain.
Lu Liangsheng was floating on a tree on the top of the mountain with his hands behind his back. The wind blew past his ethereal body. His eyes swept around, taking in the rolling mountain ridges and the surging sea of clouds.
The noisy mountain village and acres of fertile fields all unfolded before his eyes.
