How to understand the practice method suitable for your current cultivation?
Sitting alone in front of the window, Chen Yun picked up the brush and wrote down the existing practices in "Chen Xiansheng Neidan Jue".
He wrote a short song first, and then added the core "Wang Jian Nan".
Finally, he recorded the incantations.
Chen Yun stared and pondered carefully, "The first turn is roughly like this. The next layer... The second turn, the core should involve the palace."
He shook his head, "Or perhaps, this is something between the first turn and the second turn, and it's highly likely to test whether I can condense the elixir."
Condensing the elixir is of paramount importance for those practicing internal energy cultivation.
My previous cultivation method was centered on the lower dantian, which was actually a wrong path.
There are two very important points here: the true fire refining the true water, and the Yellow Mother (symbolic of the balancing force) harmonizing, which allows the true qi to be generated.
Chen Yun shook his head and said, "It's nothing, just thoughts of the past."
To be honest, Chen Yun has not yet forgiven his father for selling him.
How can one harmonize in the Yin Sea?
Or to put it another way, if one wants to generate the elixir qi, they cannot accumulate it in the lower dantian.
Chen Yun nodded slightly, saying, "This section explains that once the elixir is formed, the mind returns to purity and stillness, and all the transformations and concealments are due to the heart. From this point, one can be considered to have entered the path. With the power of creation in hand and the use of one's essence spirit, one can proceed or retreat at will. The birth of the elixir substance can be pursued and captured by oneself through methods, then the cultivation of the elixir path is within reach."
Chen Yun blinked his eyes and secretly thought, "The Yin Yin enhances and reduces self-harmony, and before the front string, after the back string, what are the elixirs?"
He gathered the qi of the elixir to the tip of his finger, condensed the Taiji Bagua Diagram in front of him, and began to perform calculations to see if there were any abnormalities.
"Why does this sudden inspiration come upon me?"
Chen Yun kept recalling the specific content of "The Song of Breaking Through the Mistakes".
These can be used as references to sort out the secret of generating elixir qi.
This can only mean one thing: no matter how wonderful the method of calculation is, it cannot predict one's own affairs.
This study went on until the night.
Wang Siyan was very concerned about his mood, and asked hurriedly, "Cloud Brother, what's wrong with you?"
"Although I didn't predict anything significant, from what I saw through a bamboo tube, it seems there won't be any major disasters."
Prepare some annual goods, so that my parents will be happy.
However, when adding his name and birth date to the formula, the Taiji Bagua Diagram suddenly shattered.
The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic says: "Water and fire are the signs of yin and yang."
Chen Yun snapped out of his meditation, waved his hand, and said, "It's unnecessary."
In humans, the upper half is yang and the lower half is yin.
Upon hearing this, images of his parents, sister, and younger brother suddenly popped into his mind.
Suddenly, Wang Siyan walked in from outside and said, "Cloud Brother, do you want to eat something? I'll cook it."
It corresponds to ordination in secular life. Chen Yun has not ordained, so this should not be said in this way.
There is also the core of the internal alchemy taught by his master, the "Song of Breaking Through the Mistakes and Returning to the Right Path."
He knows that his teacher's great law contains the theories, methods, techniques, and effects of refining elixirs, as well as exposing false ways. It can be said to be all-encompassing.
The legend of Chang'e is widely spread among the people.
I am already in my forties, and my parents are in their fifties and sixties.
This is the core point of this section.
However, in this cultivation method, it is definitely not referring to the moon palace.
She looked over to him with a puzzled expression, "Cloud Brother, are you troubled?"
I haven't refined a golden elixir yet, so it doesn't seem to qualify as having completed the elixir refining process.
"The moon inside the sun?"
In a certain sense to talk about, in fact, I actually have completed the "Returning the Elixir".
However, the median dantian is the energy sea, which is centered around the Dantong Acupoint and belongs to yang.
At first glance, this method seems to negate many cultivation techniques.
This line is where Chen Yun realized the secret of refining essence into qi.
Perhaps because he had freed his thoughts, Chen Yun did not continue to study and instead sat by the window to admire the night scenery.
Chen Yun knows what Wang Siyan means.
"It's the 15th of October, and in another month and a half, it will be New Year's Day," Wang Siyan said like a housewife. "I need to prepare the New Year's goods in advance and send them to the people who need gifts. By the way, Cloud Brother, do you need to send any New Year's goods to your secular family?"
"But how can one directly generate the elixir qi in a single step?"
However, some practitioners who cut off worldly ties may refer to their original family in this way.
It can only be said that refining essence into qi is possible, but directly generating elixir qi is not.
Just relying on one's own wisdom may be difficult to understand this point.
Chen Yun looked up at the bright moon in the sky, observing that it was like a jade plate, scattered in the clear blue sky.
After a brief chat, Chen Yun stood up and walked to the bedside.
Who would have thought that after Wang Siyan had just finished tidying up the room, she suddenly said, "I wonder how difficult it must be for Chang'e in the Jade Crescent Palace."
But don't forget that I have already refined the body into immortality and generated elixir qi.
Then, as long as the "Golden Sun" flies into the "Jade Crescent Palace," the true qi will condense into elixir qi.
He first reviewed "The Song of Breaking Through the Mistakes and Returning to the Right Path" to try to understand the truth.
While appreciating the moonlight, he casually said, "Well, the moonlight tonight is indeed wonderful."
Chen Yun knows that this is a metonymy.
For some unknown reason, Chen Yun always feels a restless sense in his mind, as if something has happened.
The second line: True qi constantly gathers in the vast space, and the boundless universe is turned into a cauldron. Inverting the universe allows for freedom of movement, shifting the Southern Star into its northern position. The Golden Sun flies into the Jade Crescent Palace, with the jade rabbit hidden inside the sun. The waning and waning of Yin and Yang are harmonized, and drugs are sought after after the front string.
It can't be said that I have taken the wrong path, can it?
Even, Chen Yun even suffered a small amount of backlash.
Yuchuan Palace originally refers to the moon palace.
Chen Yun thought for a moment, "Get some New Year's supplies for my secular family too. I'll tell you the place later."
So the lower dantian is called "Yin Sea".
Chen Yun, with his profound cultivation, naturally noticed that Wang Siyan had left.
"Ha ha!" Chen Yun laughed heartily, "I get it! I understand!"
He wrote two lines of words on the paper.
Chen Yun estimated that it was a small trouble, so he didn't take it too seriously.
It can be said that figuring out how to generate the elixir qi is more important than anything else.
In fact, as long as people who have entered the realm can explore the secrets from it, it's just a matter of how much they can learn.
Happily, behind came the sound of Wang Siyan, who was tidying up the room, "The moon tonight is really round, it seems like tomorrow will be a good weather."
This even makes people feel an infinite amount of sympathy and compassion for Chang'e's situation.
Chen Yun felt a bit puzzled.
Wang Siyan had been living with Chen Yun for a long time and roughly knew his temperament. She guessed that he might have had some enlightenment in his cultivation, so she didn't dare to disturb him, but quietly went out to draw water and wash her face.
The last time I saw my parents and my younger brother and sisters must have been more than twenty years ago.
Just thinking about what my father did, Chen Yun couldn't help but sigh.
Chen Yun was so excited that he couldn't control himself. He turned around and hugged Wang Siyan, kissing her passionately and saying, "It's great to have you!"
Reluctantly, he had no choice but to turn his attention back to "The annotations to the Laozi," "The Eight Trigrams and Nine Stars Qigong," and other texts.
Although it wasn't serious, just making the qi and blood boil, he immediately realized something.
So what is the Jade Crescent Palace?
"The elixir qi should be accumulated in the middle dantian, also known as the central palace."
The "Golden Sun" need not be mentioned, as it refers to the heart fire.
Chen Yun suddenly recalled that Yu Ji could create such a great law as the "Taiping Qingling Book," but he had not calculated that he would be killed by Sun Ce.
According to the theory of the nine palaces and yin-yang.
Wang Siyan seemed to guess what was going on and didn't dare to mention the matter of her secular family, "Alright, then I'll prepare some New Year's goods for Longhualishan, Erlangmiao Temple, Jinquanshan, Beiqiyueshan, and other places."
Although I joined the door of my master's Daoism and have the hope to become a immortal in the future, this is still a thorn in my heart, which I can't smooth out.
However, before that, I had obtained a lot of Daoist methods related to cultivation.
No matter whether it's revenge or earth-shattering events, none of it can compare to figuring out how to condense a golden elixir.
"Calculate others, not yourself. If you calculate yourself, death is certain."
He was about to freshen up and rest early, to consider the matter of the cultivation methods tomorrow.
Particularly when the poem "Chang'e" written by Li Shangyin appeared.
According to the ancient people's short-lived nature, the two have already reached the later years of their lives.
Chen Yun felt that even if he could never forgive what his father had done, under the premise that the other person is of advanced age, it's better not to be nitpicky.
"A golden elixir swallowed whole in the belly, one can finally know that my life is not controlled by heaven."
"Oh." Wang Siyan didn't say anything else, tidying up the room by herself.
What about the lower dantian?
He couldn't help but look at the line below unconsciously.
The first line: Two things combined weigh one catty, the string, hope, and obscurity on the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month match the original number. It cycles continuously day and night without stopping. Timely extraction is known for its age and tenderness. In an instant, they will merge with JinXing, located in the southwest of Kun's position. Slowly mix and enter Gēng Palace. Try to lightly manipulate the heavenly machinery.
Chen Yun dimly understood what to do, "Then, I just need to slightly modify the first turn of the cultivation method, so that when the true qi is generated, it doesn't fall into the lower dantian but remains in the middle dantian for harmonization. It should be able to generate elixir qi and accumulate it in the middle dantian."
The middle palace is a place where yin and yang converge.
The moon tonight is particularly bright, illuminating the Qingcheng Mountain wrapped in silver and white, like a silver glow permeating the surroundings.
Wang Siyan looked puzzled, not understanding what was wrong with Chen Yun.
Chen Yun's instincts took over and he recited the poem, "Clouds of jade screen, deep candle shadows. The river is gradually setting the stars at dawn sink. Chang'e should regret stealing the elixir of immortality, night after night in the jade crescent palace..." Ah? Yuchuan Palace?
Elixir qi is inherently pure Yang.
Thinking so, Chen Yun took out "The Annotations to the Laozi Xiang'er," "The Song of Breaking Through the Mistakes and Returning to the Right Path," "The Flying Elixir Jade Talisman," and "The Eight Trigrams and Nine Stars Qigong," beginning to leaf through them one by one.
Just now, a casual sentence from Wang Siyan suddenly woke me up!
This sentence contains the truth.
After studying for a few hours, Chen Yun still had no clue.
Wang Siyan did not finish reciting the poem.
But now he has no time for love and affection, because he has realized.
Chen Yun had been thinking about how to transform true qi into elixir qi.
At that time, I was preparing to go to the Yueyu Cave Heaven and didn't know what the future held, so I wanted to see my family again. However, I never had the chance to recognize them again.
After that, he didn't bother to care about Wang Siyan's reaction and immediately returned to his desk with great enthusiasm, picking up the brush and writing vigorously.
Yin mainly governs fire, and Yang mainly governs water.
Chen Yun slowly recited Zhang Ziyang's famous words, "If I can seize the opportunity to understand the specific cause of elixir qi generation, then I believe that I will be able to truly condense a golden elixir in no time."
After understanding, I can try the law of self-study, right?
Chen Yun hardly gave it a second thought and began to practice his cultivation method immediately.
While practicing his cultivation method, he secretly thought, "I hope my guess was right. If it's feasible, my cultivation speed will definitely increase by a large margin."
