Zhao Ran first opened "Shangqing Jue", which is a Taoist book that specifically talks about how to inhale and exhale Qi. According to Master Xiao Zhuo's letter, there is no good or bad method. The depth of learning depends on one's nature. . The so-called good fortune actually means seven parts chance and three parts hard work. In other words, even the most basic Taoist skills such as "Shangqing Jue", if the practitioner happens to be suitable for it and is quite diligent, can still practice it to the extreme depth and achieve the highest state of Hedao.
Zhao Ran glanced at it and knew that this was actually the exercise that Uncle Da Zhuo and Uncle Xiao Zhuo taught him at Changchong Mountain. However, the blank spaces in the book were densely filled with comments and insights written in small regular script. Zhao Ran had to thank the two uncles again for their kindness, but it was a pity that he had no ability to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and could not practice Qi. To him, this technique was no different from waste paper.
I opened "Zhengyi Fufa" again and studied it for a while, and I was immediately overjoyed!
The so-called talisman means that Tao and Qi are combined to perform the law through runes. In terms of form, runes can be roughly divided into fuwen, yunzhuan, lingbao talisman, and talisman. Fuwen is a combination of two or more characters, yunzhuan is the changing shape of clouds, and lingbao talisman is composed of dots and lines. Runes, the above-mentioned runes plus the images of gods are the runes.
In terms of efficacy, it is nothing more than exorcising evil and ghosts, summoning gods and generals, eliminating disasters, fighting and killing, etc.
When Zhao Ran was in the Sutra Hall of Wujiyuan, he went down the mountain many times to preside over or participate in fasting rituals. He used many talismans, but most of them had no effect. The reason for this was because there was no internal refining method. If you want to refine an effective talisman, in addition to the materials, the most important thing is to inject qi into the talisman using the internal refining method. As the saying goes, "talisman has no formal shape, it is spirited by qi." It doesn't matter if the talisman is crooked or shapeless. As long as Qi is injected into it, it can guide the talisman to work.
There are three levels of internal refining and Qi refining: ancestral energy, Tiangang, and golden light. From first to last, each level is more powerful than the last. The same talisman can be used to refine and inject qi within Tiangang's territory, and its effect far exceeds the method of ancestral energy. If the inner refining realm reaches the golden light level, no matter how ordinary the talisman is, its effect will be extremely powerful.
"Zhengyi Talismans" contains a total of 72 most basic and commonly used talismans, divided into nine levels, with eight talismans at each level, corresponding to Taoist, Taoist, Huang Guan, Mage, Archmage, Refiner, and Great Master. The ninth level of refiner, real person, and heavenly master (great real person).
Seeing this, Zhao Ran couldn't help but be stunned: Darling, this "Zhengyi Talismans" can actually be used up to the level of Tianshi. Is it so easy for the Taoist sect to allow the highest level spells to spread without any restrictions? In the midst of doubts and worrying about gains and losses, Zhao Ran quickly flipped through the last part of the Taoist book, and the spark of joy in his heart was immediately extinguished as if cold water had been poured on his head.
Zhao Ran once again had a deeper understanding of the word Fu Lu: Fu and Lu are not the same thing! Talismans are runes, that's right, but urns need to be taught. If runes are the basis for practicing magic, then talismans are the qualifications for practicing magic. In other words, if you want to refine a talisman, you just need to know how to refine the talisman. You must find the right materials, write the talisman in the correct way, and successfully refine the energy in the process of writing the talisman. There is no mistake in these steps. Okay, do you think this talisman is ready to be used? Then you are totally wrong! If you have not gone through the Taoist sect's talisman conferring ceremony and do not possess the talisman position, then the talisman you refine will not take effect!
What is the job? Luzhi is the level of Taoist monks, that is, there are nine levels from Taoist priests to Tianshi (Great True Master). Zhao Ran always thought that this was just an honorary title given to monks by the Taoist sect, or an artificial classification of the monks' cultivation by the Taoist sect. It was not until today that he realized that it was not that simple.
It was difficult for Zhao Ran to understand at first why the talisman could be made effective by performing a ceremony and conferring a talisman position, but not vice versa. So he carefully read the full text of "Zhengyi Fufa" from beginning to end. This time he didn't even miss the annotations and insights. After reading it, he had a vague understanding. It seemed that the Taoist rituals were not just a series of rituals. A form, at least this form is real and effective. Through the form of scientific rituals, one can communicate with the ancestors of Taoism and the immortals in the heavens in a certain way, thus giving the communicator some magical power.
He couldn¡¯t help but think of the days when he presided over fasting rituals in various places in the county. Looking back now, he couldn¡¯t help but feel ashamed - he was really ignorant and fearless at that time.
Well, the problem now is that Zhao Ran doesn't even have the most basic job of "Taoist priest", and the talisman he refined is still useless. With an uneasy mood, Zhao Ran quickly looked back and finally saw a line of annotations. The ink was obviously left recently. Uncle Xiao Zhuo said, letRan will first learn to refine the eight first-level talismans, and when they come back, they will try to let Zhao Ran participate in the talisman awarding ceremony at Huayun Pavilion. Of course, the premise is that Zhao Ran must meet the conditions for being awarded the title of "Taoist".
What conditions can be used to confer the title of "Taoist priest"? Taoist practice pays attention to four major steps, namely, refining the essence to transform into qi, refining the qi to transform into the spirit, refining the spirit to return to the void, and refining the void to combine with the Tao. The first step is to refine the essence into the qi, which is divided into two steps. When the essence and qi are combined, the transformation When the jingqi is light and has no energy, it can be given the position of Taoist priest, or it is said to enter the Taoist realm. When the jingqi turns into elixir, it can be given the position of Huangguanlu, or it is said to enter the Huangguan realm.
Before that, one must first do a good job in inhaling and exhaling, so that the Qi in the body reaches a certain level. That is, when you feel the swelling of the Qi sea, you have entered the Taoist realm and can be awarded the Taoist priesthood.
What Zhao Ran is practicing now is the "Innate Merit Sutra". Cultivating the power of merit is not about absorbing the Qi from the aura of heaven and earth. He doesn't know if his feelings and situations will be consistent with the feelings and situations described in the Taoist cultivation realm. But the "Innate Merit Sutra" also makes it very clear that the progress of cultivation is also divided into four major steps: refining qi to transform, refining qi to transform into spirit, refining spirit to return to void, and refining void to combine with Tao. In this case, Zhao Ran is full of hope I hope to speculate, hoping that my practice can be consistent with practice in the "traditional sense".
Put aside the "Zhengyi Fufa" and then open the "Utensil Making Manual".
It is also an introductory book on weapon making. There are no big principles to explain, and there are no general tips. It directly lists the refining methods of thirty-six commonly used magic weapons, including swords, seals, rulers, Handkerchiefs, ropes, sand, nets, bottles and other types. There are three or four examples of each. For example, a flying sword, from material selection to formula, to refining, warming, opening, imprinting into consciousness, etc., every link is explained clearly. There is no refining method for the Five Elements Divine Formation Disk that Zhao Ran was given before, but each of the magic weapons can be refined by referring to a certain magic weapon listed in the book.
What makes Zhao Ran happy the most is that there is a glossary at the back of the book, which is an explanation of the terms. This time, Zhao Ran finally understood what "half-yin fire" is and what "dragon and tiger complement each other".
Reading from beginning to end, there was no suggestion that weapon refining required the profession of Lu, which made Zhao Ran greatly relieved. If weapon refining also required the profession of Lu, he would probably be so angry that he vomited blood.
Zhao Ran can now study talismans and learn to make weapons, and his life is suddenly enriched. Because there are three permanent rescue stations, Yangmayi, Liuzhuangyi and Charity Hall, a fairly stable amount of merit is cultivated every day, so for the time being, you can not worry about these "mundane affairs" that lay the foundation, so next, Start practicing with all your heart.
Zhao Ran threw all the trivial matters in Fangtang to Jiang Zhiheng. He practiced talisman making in the morning, tried to refine magic weapons in the afternoon, and sat quietly in the evening to meditate on the inner breath diagram taught to him by Zhu Qigu to restore the mana consumed during the day. At the same time, he took the time to Convert the power of merit into your own magic power.
Jiang Zhiheng, as the leader of Fang Hall and Zhao Ran¡¯s deputy, is puzzled by Zhao Ran¡¯s behavior. At first, he was directly excluded from Fangtang's affairs and almost marginalized. Then he suddenly took over all Fangtang's affairs and regained "power". During the ups and downs, he was made unhappy and uncomfortable by Zhao Ran. It was really The two heavens of ice and fire. However, after going through the process of "appealing" to Wujiyuan Supervisor and Sandu and other senior officials, he had truly understood Zhao Ran's intimidation power, so he did not dare to complain, so he could only take over Fangtang's job again with full of doubts. He held the baton and worked hard, fearing that Zhao Ran would find out his flaws.
It¡¯s just that his complicated thoughts were completely beyond the scope of Zhao Ran¡¯s eyes. Now Zhao Ran is ¡°ambitious¡± and devotes himself wholeheartedly to the ¡°business¡± that a monk should do, which can be regarded as opening a new chapter in his Taoist career.
