[Ancient Swordsman] As You Like It

Seeing this, Grandpa Shu continued to talk: "Next, I will tell you how to absorb the essence of the sun and the moon for your own use. Once the demons have psychic communication, they can automatically communicate with the spiritual energy of the world, and they don't need to use it like humans. By practicing the method of star accumulation and opening up the meridians of the whole body to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, we only need to meditate at a specific time.

Of course, we demons do not meditate like human beings, but to relax our minds, stretch our bodies, accept the input of spiritual energy to the greatest extent, and let the spiritual energy naturally gather in the dantian.And meditation is to have no other distractions, to achieve the state of forgetting both things and me, and to feel the movement of spiritual power in the body.It should be noted that when meditating, one must abstain from the five senses and not be influenced by the outside world.

After cultivating spiritual power, you need to learn how to use it, which requires special formulas. Generally speaking, there are offensive formulas, defensive formulas, healing formulas, etc. Of course, it is impossible for us to learn all of them. Jue, must be focused.I have recorded all the formulas that I have practiced over the years in the Jade Slips, and I will give them to you later. If there is anything you don’t understand during the practice, please ask me. I won’t talk about it now.Moreover, we monsters all need our own innate skills. For example, Xiangling, you are a fox clan, so you are born with the ability to charm.And I don't know about Xixue's innate skills, you need to find out by yourself,

In fact, what you really need to learn is how to use spiritual consciousness. The spiritual consciousness of monsters is a kind of spiritual power just like human spiritual consciousness, and using spiritual consciousness is the use of spiritual power.Under normal circumstances, spiritual consciousness cannot be cultivated, and can only grow stronger with the growth of cultivation.Spiritual consciousness plays a vital role in demons, and the most important thing is to allow different types of demons to communicate. After all, we do not have a unified language like humans. Different types of demons cannot speak the same language, and it is impossible to learn other demons. The human language can only be communicated by spiritual knowledge.Just like the two of you, you are different from each other, but you can talk, relying on spiritual knowledge.In fact, to the ears of animals without intelligence, what you say is just a cry, meaningless. "

Hearing this, Lin Xixue couldn't help asking: "Grandpa Tree, can the spiritual consciousness of monsters communicate with humans?" She thought: Isn't human beings animals with intelligence?If she could communicate with them with her spiritual sense, she would be able to speak directly to Master Shizun.But Grandpa Shu said: "It's not possible. Even though we can understand human beings, we can't talk to them. Spiritual knowledge can only be used for communication between monsters. If we want to talk to people, we must wait until the bones are removed." Only later." "Henggu, what is that? Is it a bone on the body? Or is it from the mouth?" Lin Xixue asked, and Xiangling had never heard Grandpa Shu talk about it before, so she also looked at it strangely. he.

Grandpa Shu said: "The so-called horizontal bone is not actually a real bone, but a bone-like thing that exists in the spirit, which restricts the growth of the demon's intelligence. The human spirit is called the soul, and our It can only be called spirit, and the reason lies in the crossbone. The existence of the crossbone restricts the integration of the three souls and seven souls. If the soul cannot operate smoothly, even if we can use spiritual consciousness, we still cannot be as fast as human beings. It’s good to control your behavior. Just like Xixue, you can’t restrain your instinct to spit at all, right, Xixue?” With that, Grandpa Shu teased Xixue with a smile.

Lin Xixue, who just spit secretly, was embarrassed for a moment. Fortunately, she always thought that she hadn't been discovered. It was so embarrassing, and she didn't want to, but she couldn't control it at all, so she could only reply embarrassingly: "Ahaha, Grandpa Shu, did you see Yes, you're right, I just can't control it. Can I control this instinct as long as I remove the horizontal bone?"

Grandpa Shu replied: "That's true. After removing the horizontal bones, we can not only control the instincts of demons, but also learn human language." "Then Grandpa Tree, how can we remove the horizontal bones? Xiangling also wants to say Human words!" This time, before Lin Xixue could ask, Xiangling couldn't help asking.Grandpa Shu didn't hold back, he paused for a moment, and said: "Removing the crossbones is actually very simple, as long as you have enough cultivation, it's just that the positions of the crossbones in different monsters' spirits are not the same, so it's not easy to find them." , and different monsters have different requirements for cultivation, like Grandpa Tree, it took decades to get rid of the bones, so the matter of getting rid of the bones can only be done by yourself."

It takes so long!Lin Xixue asked without giving up: "Is it true that you can't communicate with humans if you don't get rid of the bones?" Grandpa Shu gave her a meaningful look and said: "It's not entirely like this. The main pet contract, becoming a human's spiritual pet, can naturally communicate with humans through the mind. But that also means losing freedom, and almost no monsters will take the initiative to sign a main pet contract with humans."

Seeing Xiangling and Lin Xixue's pensive looks, Grandpa Shu continued: "Okay, it's too early for you to think about these things now, let's continue talking about spiritual consciousness." , Only then came back to his senses, and listened attentively to what Grandpa Shu said.

Grandpa Shu said: "You not only need to use spiritual knowledge to communicate, but also need to use spiritual knowledge to view the jade slips, control the operation of spiritual power, and use spells. You have to learn to control your spiritual consciousness. Like Xixue, although you can communicate with Xiangling, you don’t know how to use your spiritual consciousness, you just manipulate it unconsciously. This is not possible at all. And Xiangling, although you can use spiritual consciousness , I’m afraid it’s only a half-knowledge.”

Both Xiangling and Lin Xixue lowered their heads in shame. Grandpa Shu looked at them without saying anything more, and continued, "Now, calm down, don't think about other things, close your eyes, and feel the pain between your brows. Conscious of changes in the sea, imagine that you can see the outside world." Xiang Ling and Lin Xixue immediately followed suit.Lin Xixue emptied her mind, and tried to follow what Grandpa Shu said, imagining that she could "see" things with spiritual consciousness.Gradually, she felt as if she was flying into the sky, and she could see everything around her. This made Lin Xixue, a girl who grew up under the influence of Marxist atheism, feel incomparably miraculous. Withdrew from this state.

Lin Xixue saw that Xiangling's eyes were still closed, and she was probably still immersed in that state. She glanced at Grandpa Shu, closed her eyes again, and savored this feeling carefully.It didn't take long for her to "see" the world around her again. The difference from what she saw with her eyes was that different objects in this world emitted different lights, and even she herself emitted a milky white light, which is amazing!

After an unknown amount of time, Grandpa Shu's voice sounded again: "Okay, that's all for today, I still haven't recovered!" Xiangling and Lin Xixue woke up suddenly, opened their eyes at the same time, and looked at Grandpa Shu blankly.Grandpa Shu asked: "How do you feel? Is there a way to master the control of spiritual consciousness?" They looked at each other, and Xiangling said first: "Grandpa Shu, I feel like my soul is out of my body, floating in the air, and It's completely different when you're in the body. Will you feel this way when you learn flying in the future?"

Grandpa Shu replied: "That's not the case. Using spiritual sense to view the environment has a much wider range than the eyes, and even the flying technique is incomparable." After finishing speaking, he looked at Xixue again, and Lin Xixue also said: "Grandpa Shu, I feel the same as Xiangling. I think I should master the method of controlling spiritual consciousness, but I still don't know how to communicate with spiritual consciousness."

Grandpa Shu said: "Judging from your state just now, there is basically no problem, but you need to practice more in the future. As for what Xixue said, you don't know how to communicate with spiritual sense. In fact, it is not the case. You are already using it. Otherwise, how do we talk? You just need to feel the difference between your sea of ​​consciousness speaking and unconscious screaming, now you try."

Although Lin Xixue didn't understand Grandpa Shu's words, she still acted according to his words. She closed her eyes, first yelled "Mmm~mm~" twice, and then said something to Xiangling.As a result, she found that there was no change in the sea of ​​consciousness when she yelled, but when she spoke, the spiritual consciousness in the sea of ​​consciousness would spontaneously radiate from between her eyebrows and spread to Xiangling.

With a thought in her mind, Lin Xixue controlled the scattered spiritual consciousness to return to her eyebrows, and she succeeded, her words turned into screams again, and she was overjoyed, it turned out to be like this.As long as you control the change of this wisp of spiritual consciousness when speaking, you can communicate with different monsters, and you can also control when you speak.So, she opened her eyes and told Grandpa Shu excitedly: "Grandpa Shu, I know how to speak with spiritual knowledge!" Grandpa Shu smiled slightly and said, "Xixue is very smart and learns quickly! Unlike Xiangling, Learned for a long time."

Lin Xixue was a little embarrassed, and thought to herself, I used to be almost 20 years old, and I had read so many novels about cultivating immortals, but now I am praised for being smart compared to Xiangling, a little fox who is only one year old. People are ashamed.Xiangling heard what Grandpa Shu said, and said coquettishly, "Grandpa Shu, isn't Xiangling smart? Why don't you praise Xiangling? Xiangling is unhappy."

Grandpa Shu hurriedly coaxed: "Smart and clever, Xiangling is the smartest!" That doting tone made Lin Xixue very envious.Only then did Xiangling smile happily, and jumped forward, climbing onto Grandpa Shu's body, rubbed him affectionately, and then jumped down.Lin Xixue looked enviously at Xiao Xiangling's nimble movements, then looked down at her four thick legs, and couldn't help sighing, they are all reptiles, why is there such a big gap!

Seeing that it was getting late, Grandpa Shu realized that a day had passed before he knew it, so he said to the two of them, "It's already very late today, and I have finished what I need to say, and you have mastered it very well. Now I I will give you the jade slips, which contain various spell formulas, remember that you need to use your spiritual sense to check them. You still have to rely on your own cultivation in the future, and you can ask me if you don’t understand anything.” After speaking, Grandpa Shu shook his branches and leaves , two green lights shot towards them, fell in front of them and turned into two small green jade plates.Then Grandpa Shu said: "Go back, you must practice hard!"

Xiangling and Lin Xixue replied together: "Understood, thank you, Grandpa Shu!" Then Xiangling picked up the jade slip on the ground with her mouth, turned and walked towards the residence, Lin Xixue looked at the jade slip, and then looked at her own. Hoof, lowered his head helplessly, also picked up the jade slip in his mouth, and followed Xiangling back.Grandpa Shu looked at their disappearing figures, sighed, and fell into a deep sleep again.
