C8 Minor Circulation
"In the end and early days, the clear air rose. Seated cross-legged to the east. It includes the chest, the back, and the hanging curtain with the eyes closed. Clasping his hands together, his tongue pressed against his upper jaw. Calm your mind, relax your mind. The heart is one with the god, and the spirit is one with the Qi … "
Old Master Hun's voice sounded in Jiang Cen's mind.
This was an introduction of a training posture. Jiang Cen seemed to understand it a little but not really understand it. Old Master Hun explained in detail.
The next step was to go through the more detailed breathing technique. The old man first taught him the most basic six words, "Hush, Hur, Hur, Hur, Hur, Blow, and Fist." Although it was complicated, it was not difficult to understand, and he only needed to follow the instructions.
If you want to be a good worker, you have to get something from it first. Cultivation postures and breathing exercises were the foundation of cultivation, just like a woodcutter.
Old Master Hun tirelessly corrected Jiang Cen's posture, letting him practice the breathing method repeatedly.
If one's cultivation posture was wrong, it would be difficult for the heaven and earth origin energy to circulate through their meridians, which would be disadvantageous to their cultivation; if one was not proficient in breathing techniques, they would use the 'Hah' spell when using the 'hu' character. If the breath was wrong, it would result in the person being unable to cultivate mana.
Jiang Cen spent half a day in a stable cultivation posture. After half a day, he finally managed to master the six-word breathing technique.
He hadn't even started cultivating yet, and an entire day had already passed. Moreover, he was extremely exhausted, and his stomach was rumbling with hunger.
Jiang Cen was filled with wild pears that were hard to swallow. However, because he was too hungry, he ate three of them in one go!
"Do you want to rest?" Old Master Hun asked.
"There's no need for that. Let's continue cultivating!" Jiang Cen said. The wild pear he carried on his back would one day be eaten. When he walked out of the cave again, he had to have a certain amount of self-preservation abilities!
"Good!" This old man will teach you the incantation for cultivation! Tao Scripture can be subdivided into Alchemy Scripture , Immortal Body , and Heavenly Dao . "The Alchemy Scripture can allow you to cultivate it from the initial Qi Core Period all the way to the great perfection of the Core Transforming Period!
"The qi pill is actually the zhenqi in the dantian. "At this stage, the main purpose of the cultivators is to breathe in the weather's essence, and then, through the circulation of their meridians, refine it into their own true energy."
"This old man will now teach you the formula for luck in your meridians." There are a total of eighteen meridians, which are the five facial features and five internal organs, as well as the eight meridians, Shaoyang, Shaoyin, Taiyang, and Taiyin. "
"The 18 meridians start from the tongue, the heart meridian will be the end, and the eight meridians in the hands and feet will be inserted into it. All of them have been cultivated to perfection and have completed a layer of cultivation technique." Qi Core Period s have a total of nine levels, with each level being the third of the intermediate stage. "
Jiang Cen nodded his head secretly. As a child's heart, the change in tongue reflects the changes in the body. Therefore, since ancient times, famous doctors would not only check the pulse, but also see the tongue.
Take the Tongue Meridian for example, there are a total of twelve acupuncture points. You must remember the position and sequence of each acupuncture point, and then train the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth according to the law.
"It's that simple?" Jiang Cen asked. It didn't sound like it would take much time.
Old Master Hun laughed, "I did not finish! Every time he completed it, it would be a small cycle. Cultivating 81 small cycles was a big cycle! After completing the thirty-six great circulations, and feeling a slight heat in his lower abdomen and a surge of true energy, it would be considered that I have perfected the shallowest tongue meridian and can start training the second meridian. "
Jiang Cen was stunned. He did some mental calculations and found that a single tongue meridian required him to cultivate close to three thousand small cycles! In order to complete the first layer of the cultivation technique, one needed to cultivate 18 meridians, which was more than 50,000 small cycles!
Not to mention cultivation, even over fifty thousand paper cranes required more than a month! The wild pears that he had prepared would probably only last him half a month!
Time was running out faster than he had expected!
"It's useless to worry too much. Let's start as soon as possible!" Jiang Cen thought.
"Look carefully!" This is the formula for the cultivation of the tongue meridian as well as the meridian map! " Old Master Hun said.
No one knew what method he used, but a picture of a human meridian suddenly appeared in Jiang Cen's mind. It clearly indicated the names and locations of the 12 acupuncture points that needed to be connected to the tongue meridian.
Old Master Hun explained the cultivation method one sentence at a time. Jiang Cen originally only knew a little about the ancient texts that were difficult to understand, but with Old Master Hun's explanation, he finally understood.
Otherwise, even if he were to obtain the formula, he would have to spend a long time studying it before he would understand the meaning behind it.
After memorizing the positions and sequence of the twelve acupoints on the tongue meridian, Jiang Cen began to train.
He got into a position and followed the chants' instructions. He used the breathing technique to refine the heaven and earth origin energy.
After a few tries, he felt as if there was a gentle stream flowing into his meridians through his breathing.
This was the so-called heaven and earth origin energy!
However, this wave of heaven and earth origin energy was extremely weak and difficult to control. From time to time, the Yuan Qi would stop and disappear, making it difficult to link all 12 acupoints in a single go. As long as one of them was not connected, even if the cultivation failed, it would not be possible to complete a small circulation.
Jiang Cen tried over and over again. At first, he wasn't very familiar with it, but after clearing an acupoint, he had to think about it to know the order and position of the next acupoint.
Repeated defeats! Jiang Cen was not discouraged. After many failures, he was already very familiar with 12 acupoints. Finally, after hundreds of failures, he successfully completed 12 acupoints in one go and mastered the first minor circulation of the tongue meridian!
It was probably because he was too tired. After completing this small Circulation Realm, Jiang Cen didn't feel anything special.
"Hu!" Jiang Cen let out a long sigh and said dejectedly, "It took me more than two hours to cultivate to a small circulation. It's too slow!"
"You still dare to say it's slow?!" Old Master Hun exclaimed in surprise.
"It's difficult at the beginning!"
"For an ordinary cultivator, it would be impossible to cultivate the first Small Cycle of the Refinement Realm without ten to fifteen days!"
"Even I myself was called a cultivation genius in the past, and it took me a full three days to successfully cultivate it!"
"You actually managed to cultivate it within two hours. If I didn't know that you had a Five Elements Heavenly Spirit Root, I would have already scared half of my soul away!"
Jiang Cen said complacently: "I'm not slow at all!"
"More than not slow! Your cultivation talent is already the best of the best! " Old Master Hun praised him endlessly and was quite envious of him.
Jiang Cen continued to cultivate. With the success of his first attempt, his future cultivation had become smoother. Out of the ten attempts, he managed to succeed two or three times and managed to cultivate to a small Circulatory Cycle.
After a few small cycles, Jiang Cen gradually felt a little abnormal.
Every time he breathed and breathed, true qi would flow through his meridians and acupuncture points, giving him an indescribably carefree feeling. Especially between the words, the aftertaste was endless. This feeling was a hundred times more wonderful than any delicacy he had tasted before!
At first, Jiang Cen planned to take a break after ten small cycles, but after experiencing that indescribable feeling, he didn't want to stop at all and continued to cultivate!
