Chapter 22: The Dao of Heaven is not complete, and the Dao of Heaven lacks one
Ye Yian, who was itchy at the center of the surprise, tried the ice talisman again, but this time, unexpectedly, the talisman was not successful. He recited Yunwen with his mouth, pinched the magic tricks, and stepped on the Gang Step. However, Ye Yian tried many times, but the ice talisman diagram in the universe in his sleeve was not responding.
If the talisman image does not move, the talisman magic will naturally not be cast.
Before the surprise faded, Ye Yian's heart suddenly suffocated. But today he was really unable to draw talisman pictures, so he could only practice the twelve serious cultivation techniques with his heart hanging like this.
The part after the "Chrysanthemum and Butterfly Practice" was gone after the pill was formed. Ye Yian did not have a better technique at hand and could not stop practicing. In the end, he decided to continue practicing the twelve serious "Peyuan Jue". One reason was that he had mastered this technique, and now he only had this technique to send him to the realm of the elixir.
Once you reach the realm of spiritual elixir, even if the twelve serious "Peyuan Jue" is successful, you have to find new and suitable exercises when you come to the stage. However, this is all afterwards, let's wait and talk about it.
After practicing the Twelve Serious "Peiyuan Jue", it was almost dusk. Ye Yian got some food and got free after eating. He was idle but he couldn't spare. He always thought about the fact that the ice talisman could not be released successfully, and finally he became a little upset.
The best way to relieve your random thoughts is to find things to do, search for them, but find the two secret books in the world, "Shadowless Foot" and "Lingxi Finger".
The reason why Ye Yian chose these two books was actually very simple. "The Shadowless Foot" is to practice feet, and the result is to make quick feet; "The Lingxi Finger" is to practice finger palms, and the result is also to change quickly. This coincides with the requirements of hand-pinning fingers and foot-step in the talisman technique. Practicing these two skills may be helpful in improving the speed of talisman movements.
Since there is nothing to do, just practice. After reading these two secret books, Ye Yian immediately put away the initial contempt.
Both of these secrets are not easy to practice, and they have to work hard to achieve something. However, he has a great advantage - the meridians and bones in his body have been washed away by the twelve serious classics "Peiyuan Jue" for more than nine years, and in fact he has reached the innate realm mentioned in the secrets.
This situation is equivalent to others practicing "The Shadowless Foot" and "The Spiritual Finger" in the hope of going from the outside to the inside, while he has achieved the part before practicing, and now he only needs to practice moves. It is difficult to go from low to high, and it is much easier to go from high to low.
Even so, after one hour of practice, Ye Yian was still sweating. After he washed in the mountain stream, the sky was completely dark.
The place to rest was chosen in a storage cave with a temperature of almost constant temperature all year round, but after lying down, he couldn't fall asleep for a while. Ye Yian twisted his mind and turned his mind from the ice talisman to the Lihuo talisman.
Although the Lihuo Talisman was successfully cast, Ye Yian thought of some shortcomings after carefully reviewing it.
A fireball is cast at a time. Although the power of that fireball is really great, if you want to fight with other practitioners, the practitioner is not a peach tree that cannot move. In this way, it will be too difficult to achieve success with this fireball.
When the pill power is consumed, if a large fireball can be divided into many small ones and converted from point attacks to surface attacks, the correct head will inevitably increase greatly, right? Ye Yian's thoughts naturally turned here.
When he got up the next day, Ye Yian ate a few stalks of cooked kudzu roots in the mountain spring and couldn't wait to start drawing the talisman. Today, the first thing he drew was the Lihuo Talisman and the Ice Talisman, especially the ice Talisman. After drawing it, he compared it with the black talisman booklet given by Lin Ziyue to confirm that there was no deviation.
The process of testing the talisman technique is the same as yesterday. The Lihuo Talisman was successfully cast, but the Ice Talisman did not respond.
Ye Yian confirmed that the process of casting the talisman technique would not be deviated, so why can't it succeed?
This experiment has gone through three more chapters, and none of the ice talismans succeeded in the three chapters, but the Lihuo talismans became more and more smooth.
Unable to find the reason, Ye Yian could only temporarily put this deep question in his heart and began to experiment with the other three talisman techniques. The result of the experiment was that there was no problem with the long wood talisman and the gold talisman, but when it came to the earth talisman, it was the same as the ice talisman, and the talisman map did not respond at all.
This time Ye Yian's mood became much calmer. He even guessed the reason why the Ice Talisman was difficult to succeed because of the failure of the Earth Thorn Talisman. In short, it was just three words - inappropriate.
The above five talismans correspond to the five systems of metal, wood, water, fire and earth. All things in the world are each contaminated with the five natures, and people are no exception. Depending on the birth date, human nature is destined. For example, the folk palace of the newborn baby is a newborn baby. There are often statements such as the five elements lacking gold, and the five elements lacking water.
As for the five elements, there are certainly nothing that is missing, but very few are.
As a result, Ye Yian developed a vague understanding. Master once said that the foundation of talisman art is that practitioners use talisman art as a medium to use the power of heaven and earth to use the power of nature for me. If the performer is born with a lack of certain nature in the five elements, he will naturally lose the foundation for communication and the foundation will not exist. Even if the process of performing the art is correct, what's the use of it?
There are few laws of heaven, and there are only one laws of heaven, and there are certain numbers in the dark. There are too few facts of perfection in this world, and many of them cannot be forced. If you just force it, you will be against the will of heaven.
Against the will! It is a heroic sound to do it even though you know you can't do it, but for Ye Yian, at least he has no idea at the moment. As the master once warned him - people don't worry about not knowing others, but they are worried about not knowing each other.
If he develops a despicable thought with his current state of practice, is this a heroic or stupid person?
After solving this doubt, Ye Yian simply gave up the efforts of the ice talisman and the earth thorn talisman, and instead focused on the three talismans of Lihuo, gold and long wood. He practiced, tried, and reflected every day, and tried to cast the three talismans more accurately, and in the process, he figured out the key points behind the talisman method.
After he practiced the talisman process of these three magics very skillfully, his mind naturally turned to the evolution of magic.
Evolution does not mean changing the nature of the magic, but focusing on the process of magic, that is, exerting force on the process of casting talismans under the premise that the alchemy power is not changed, in order to achieve the effect of reducing the casting time and enhancing the casting effect.
The reason why he had this idea was due to a teaching from his master Ye Tianwen several years ago. At that time, Ye Yian had already mastered the techniques of Anshan and other in the white talisman technique, so he lost interest in continuing to practice these talisman techniques.
In response to this, the master did not give any harsh advice. He just picked up the teacup containing the spring water in front of him and splashed it on the bluestone on the ground. Because he used the power of the elixir, when the spring water in the cup was fan-shaped and leaned on the ground, small pits visible to the naked eye were knocked out by tiny water droplets on the bluestone floor.
Ye Yian was confused about his master's intentions, and the master did not explain it. He reached out and took the teacup in front of him. When he shook his hand, the spring water in the teacup shot towards the ground in a line. With the sound of the sound, there was a thin hole as deep as a little finger on the bluestone ground.
Under the bright sky, the shallow puddle and the thin hole as deep as a little finger were particularly obvious.
"I use the same elixir power for two cups of water." I quietly put the teacup in my hand back in front of Ye Yian. The master still said in a faint tone: "The talisman is not only used, but more importantly, control! Control the direction and control the power. Only in this way can it be called the talisman for me to use, and this is the real 'action' talisman."
The master's two simple actions and a few words made Ye Yian understand another deeper direction in the talisman Taoist Dharma. In addition to being broad, the joy in his heart was really hard to describe in words.
He stood up and walked to the master, and Ye Yian bowed uprightly. Such a move was rare between the two.
After the ceremony, Ye Yian asked another question that had been puzzled for a long time, "Since I studied Yunwen with my master, I have tested it many times and passed the reduction and sliding sounds and light sounds. Now, the runes that need to be recited when casting the Anshan talisman have been reduced from the original twenty-seven syllables to twenty-three without affecting the effect of the line symbol. However, since this, although the time for reciting the runes has been shortened, the footwork under my feet cannot keep up with the speed of reciting the runes, and the overall line symbol speed cannot be improved. In response to this, it is unknown that Master can teach me."
Upon hearing the question, Ye Tianwen stood up speechlessly. While he stood up, the teacup that was originally placed on the table suddenly fell to the ground in his hand.
The moment the teacup left the table, Ye Tianwen's legs and feet began to move. Ye Yian felt a phantom flashing in front of his eyes, and he couldn't see clearly how the master was moving.
With a "ding" sound, the teacup hit the ground and shattered. At this moment, the master's legs and feet had stopped. There were only six faint footprints left on the ground. It turned out that in this moment, he had already made his foot six times.
When Ye Yian saw the footprints on the ground, he was shocked. It was not until this moment that his master's faint voice sounded: "Some things in the world can be sought out in a whim, but some can only be taken directly. The understanding of Yunwen and Talismanship depends on understanding, but improving pace and hand speed can only be practiced hard! No tricks can be taken."
After saying this, Ye Tianwen's lazy attack occurred. He carried a wine cup and wanted to go up the mountain to see the clouds rolling and silence. When he walked to the door, he said, "I have tried that the runes of the Anshan talisman can be reduced to fourteen syllables, and the runes of the Zhenliang talisman can be reduced to twenty-six syllables, and it will not affect the effect of the talisman. As for how to do these, you can work hard in the cloud text I teach you."
Since then, Ye Yian has rekindled his enthusiasm for practicing talismanship, but he no longer pursues new talismanship, but instead focuses more on reflection and attempts on the talismanship that he has mastered, control of direction, and control of strength have become the focus of his efforts.
In short, it is to strive to change from giving talisman to line talisman.
At the same time, he was more serious about Yunwen's study. Hard work pays off. Gradually, he was able to try to read the script without his master. Although he was still a little stuttering and difficult, this was an important and iconic leap after all. Although Ye Tianwen never praised him, he became much more diligent in Yunwen's professor. This alone shows his satisfaction with Ye Yian.
With the increase of cloud literature knowledge, Ye Yian began to apply what he learned, that is, to use the cloud literature knowledge he learned to analyze symbols and runes.
In the past, he targeted the white talisman technique, but now he wanted to evolve the black talisman technique. As long as he had a direction and a method, why did Ye Yian, who was originally born barefoot, fear suffering? What's more, this itself is something that can bring him countless interesting things, and even if he is bitter, he will be happy.
Since then, Ye Yian has lived in the valley for strengthening his cultivation. The valley has abundant spiritual power, which is just right for the cultivation of the twelve serious "Peyuan Jue". In addition to practicing the martial arts twice a day, the rest of the time has been spent on the evolution of the three talismans.
This matter is easy to say but difficult to do. Even if you have learned Yunwen, you can conduct basic analysis. The simplification of syllables of each oral recitation of Yunwen and the simplification of Yunwen on each stroke of the talisman map will take several times or even hundreds of experiments to achieve results. This is also due to the fact that these three talismans are all basic talismans.
It is difficult to practice Taoism than to reach the sky. Every failure has given Ye Yian a deeper understanding of this sentence. The way of heaven is better, without any hard work, it is difficult to get something out of it.
During his practice, Ye Yian arranged his rest time to practice "Shadowless Foot" and "Lingxi Finger". While increasing his hand speed and pace, he also thought of a unique trick to increase the speed of reciting runes - choose a stone of moderate size to wash it and put it in his mouth, and then recite the Five Classics and poems at the fastest speed of speech. From the initial ambiguity to the slow clearness, the speed of speech was improved and strengthened in this situation.
In short, everything Ye Yian did was to match the streamlined oral recitation of the cloud text, and the ultimate goal was to shorten the time of line characters.
Time is easy to pass in the mountains, and the world is prosperous for a thousand years.
In the blink of an eye, it has been nearly half a year since Ye Yian arrived at the valley, and the spring atmosphere has turned into a bleak autumn wind.
On this day, Ye Yian did not practice, but slowly walked through every corner of the valley. When he was about to leave, he felt even more nostalgic for Xiaogu.
Although the world is big, this is his only home!
The three talisman techniques have evolved to the limit he can do now; "Shadowless Foot" and "Lingxi Finger" have been practiced according to the secret book, and the strengthening of speech speed has been completed. Everything that can be done here has been done, but the improvement of the realm is not a matter of time. It is time to leave, not to mention that there are so many things to do outside the mountain.
Ye Yian was turning to the peach forest with a faint sadness and watching the floating leaves, he suddenly saw a misty green light coming through the sky in the northeast.
After his body turned and hid in the peach tree, the faint feeling disappeared in an instant. After a while, the green light flew closer. Ye Yian could clearly see the iconic apricot zodiac clothes behind the tree.
Xiaogu is so remote, how could a Taoist come here? Is it just for Xiaogu, or just passing by? These thoughts flashed through Ye Yian's mind and his body became deeper. He hoped that this Taoist would be better just passing by.
