And Chapter 188 The Essence of Cultivation (Two-in-One Chapter)

Under the ancient tree, Dugu Qiubai, wearing a black robe, sat cross-legged. In front of Dugu Qiubai were the weak Ye Qingshan, Black Eagle, Yang Guo, and Guo Xiang, who lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking.

With a light cough, Dugu Qiubai, who was under the ancient tree, looked a little calm. He looked up at the sky, as if he was talking to himself, and seemed to be talking about something: "Since a long time ago, I have been confused about a question, who am I, why am I here and in this world that is incompatible with me. I have thought a lot and consulted a lot of information, but in the end I have nothing to find, I can only hope to find the answer from this world."

Yang Guo was stunned, a hint of shock appeared on his face, as if he had thought of something very terrible, and looked at Dugu Qiubai in disbelief: "You succeeded"

Faced with Yang Guo's shock, Dugu Qiubai shook his head and told the other party seriously: "No, I failed, I still haven't found the answer. Why did we appear here? In this era, what happened here? Although I really want to know the answer, I'm sorry, I can't find the answer. What I want to say next is some small insights after I was looking up the information, understanding the world, and finally accumulating for a long time."

"As I said before, humans are lucky, but this kind of luck is not permanent. You beast kings are the ones who are truly unique."

Dugu Qiubai looked at Ye Qingshan and his group in front of him with a calm expression and asked, "Why do we need to practice and practice qigong? All this is why I like swords. It is impossible for me to have no swords in my life. Anything can be associated with swords in my eyes. Every flower, grass, every tree, can become a sword in my eyes, but not everyone can be as pure as me."

With a light cough, a complexity and contemplation flashed in Dugu Qiubai's bright eyes: "People have seven emotions and six desires, and everything has desires. I believe that many people in this world are willing to pursue powerful power and are willing to study various skills, but I also believe that there are more people in this world who want to live a peaceful and ordinary life, but the real world is everyone, and all life is chasing power frantically, as if there is an invisible force pushing everyone forward."

"I don't know why this happens. I hope to find the answer, but I failed, but I did not give up. And in the process of pursuing the answer, I discovered the true meaning of power."

"What is the essence of cultivation is actually very simple, it is nothing more than the improvement of energy and spirit."

"Essence, essence and energy represent strength, which is the essence of the body. This is easy to explain. All the processes of polishing the body are improving the essence and energy in the body."

"Qi and internal force represent the power in our body, representing an energy that I cannot describe, but it does exist. I believe that this is not difficult to understand for any creature with internal force in the body. The so-called internal strength mental method is actually a way to refine qi. The higher the level of mental method, the higher the quantity and quality of qi will be improved."

"God, spirit, can also be called soul and realm. This is a more illusory thing. It is difficult to explain. I can only give examples, such as my swordsmanship, such as Yang Guo, the sad state of mind you lost, it is difficult to improve God. This is a state that can only be understood but not expressed in words."

"To summarize the above, the so-called cultivation is the process of improving the spirit and spirit. When the essence and energy in the body reach the peak, it represents the innate. When the energy in the body reaches the peak, it is what you call the master. When the spirit in the body reaches the peak, it is what you call the master."

"But with recent exploration and understanding of the world, gradually, I discovered a very shocking fact."

"There are restrictions on the spirit of spirit. There is some kind of confinement in this world. In theory, the three spirits of spirit of spirit have reached their peak, which is the so-called grandmaster, but in fact it is not the case. Do you think I am very strong, right? But you know that if I give up all my internal strength and my sword intent, I will be just an ordinary person with strong body in terms of strength."

"In other words, my essence has not reached its peak. There is no difference between me and normal master level. Even physically, I am not as good as some talented masters. The reason why I am stronger than normal master level is because my "god" has broken through. After reaching the peak, I went further and reached a qualitative change."

"This is a way to break through to the Grandmaster. It uses a qualitative change to make up for a gap. But what's interesting is that the three types of spirit, energy and spirit can be broken through, but the only essence cannot."

"In this world, there are countless cultivators, in such a huge world, countless talented people in the East and the West, but all the breakthroughs are qi and spirit. None of them have ever made me curious about why, and I finally found the answer."

"This world is not static. He is progressing and developing. The changes brought to the world by every progress are huge. Do you still remember the so-called warriors? Ip Man and Huang Feihong, they have no internal strength in their bodies, but why do they have power far surpass normal people because of their spirit. The most heroic heroes serve the country and the people, and have been exerted to the extreme in them. The so-called Kung Fu era, in fact, to be precise, should be the spiritual era. What really changes in this land under our feet is not that there are more people, but that it opens up the shackles of our spirit."

"And the second era of Jianghu is actually more important than the era of internal force. Change is not humans, but the world. It opens up the confinement of "qi" in our organisms."

"Although I don't know what will happen in the next era, I can predict that the next era will be an era of essence."

"I know why I always say that you Beast King is the truly unique existence because in the next era, you are the real darlings of heaven and earth. The Beast King's own essence is ten times hundred times that of human beings. After two eras precipitation, the accumulation of energy and spirit has reached its peak. The next era will surely accumulate strength."

"I can imagine that when the next era begins, all the beast kings will now break through to the Grandmaster, and will walk further and longer than the Grandmaster on the road of Grandmaster. It seems that humans are strong now and are the darlings of heaven and earth, but the actual situation is just the opposite."

Under the ancient tree, Dugu Qiubai's passionate speech was filled with power and powerful fanning, and a hint of meditation flashed across Ye Qingshan's face.

To be honest, the things Dugu Qiubai said are very high-quality. The world, the truth, and the essence of cultivation have indeed given Ye Qingshan a refreshing and refreshing feeling.

But the problem is that these things have nothing to do with me. If the only thing that makes Ye Qingshan a little interested is Dugu Qiubai's explanation of the essence of cultivation.

For example, if you want to have the power of the Grand Master level, simply accumulation is not enough, and you also need to have a level of qualitative change in accumulation.

With a hint of doubt, Ye Qingshan looked at Dugu Qiubai seriously: "I asked you presumptuously. After hearing what you said, I just want to ask, can I defeat you?"

Dugu Qiubai nodded seriously: "Of course, this is certain. In this situation that is extremely beneficial to humans, as a beast king, you can still reach the level you are now. When the next era comes, you will become stronger than all humans. I am optimistic about you, Xiong Zai!"

Ye Qingshan hesitated for a moment and continued to ask: "Then let me ask another question. In this era, is it possible for me to defeat you or is it possible for me to reach the level of a grand master?"

"No," Dugu Qiubai said without hesitation, but then seemed to feel that he was too absolute, and he explained after pondering for a while: "To be precise, it is almost impossible. Humans are a kind of things, but humans are different from all things. Although the ultimate goal of all things is to improve their spirit, humans and other things are taking two completely opposite paths."

"It can be said that for the living organisms other than humans, their talent arrangements are all "element, energy, spirit". The potential of spirit is the strongest, followed by qi, and spirit is the last. But humans are just the opposite, humans are "shen, energy, spirit". With the strengthening of the first spiritual era, humans have more advantages in mastering qi than other things."

"So, reaching the master level is very difficult for any living organism except humans. This difficulty is more difficult than reaching the master level for humans. To reach the master level, it is no less difficult for you beast kings than me who break through to the master level, so it is almost impossible."

Ye Qingshan's dark beast eyes flashed with a hint of contemplation, looking at Dugu Qiubai with a serious look: "In other words, if I can raise the internal strength in my body to the limit and reach a qualitative change, does it mean that I can defeat you?"

"No, that only means you have reached the level of the Grand Master, not that you can defeat me." Dugu Qiubai shrugged, and there was a sense of slutty on his calm face. He looked at Ye Qingshan seriously: "In fact, not only my "god" has reached a qualitative change, but the "qi" in my body has also completed a qualitative change. In other words, I have reached the limit that the world can allow at this stage, so even if you break through, at most it will only be tied with me. Therefore, in this era, I am invincible and there is no defeat."

"In fact, although I admit that your uniqueness is destined to shine in the next era, in the early days of the era, we masters are still the most powerful forces in the world."

Ye Qingshan was stunned, helpless about Dugu Qiubai's explanation, and a puzzled look appeared on his huge head: "I still don't understand. Is it really that difficult to defeat the Grand Master at this stage, and what does this have to do with us?"

"Is it difficult or not, it is almost impossible." Dugu Qiubai shrugged and looked at Ye Qingshan with a relaxed look: "You don't understand that it is because your height is not enough, but it doesn't matter. This is normal. I don't expect you to understand. I said before that I was just nagging."

As he said that, Dugu Qiubai waved his hand and pointed at the black eagle in the distance: "Okay, Xiao eagle, I should take off my clothes, damn it, this kind of restraint feeling of wearing clothes on my body is really not very good, just like being covered with dog skin plaster."

Dugu Qiubai pulled his clothes with an unhappy look on his face, and the depression on his face seemed to be telling Guo Xiang beside him, damn woman, hurry up and leave here!

Guo Xiang wanted to refute the other party loudly, but looking at the spring light that suddenly appeared when Dugu Qiubai tear his clothes, Guo Xiang honestly shut up.

When he sent Guo Xiang away again, Ye Qingshan hesitated for a moment, gave up the idea of ​​continuing to be in the sword demon's deserted tomb, and planned to meet Xiangyang with Guo Xiang.

In fact, the Sword Demon's Waste Tomb is perfect. It is somewhat similar to Ye Qingshan's favorite environment. Nature is unrestrained and can be enjoyed freely. Although the manor in Xiangyang City is as wide as it is, the manor is still a manor. Compared with the most real nature, there is still a certain gap.

The reason Ye Qingshan planned to go back was because only in Xiangyang City can he obtain a lot of resources that he did not have in nature. Ye Qingshan knew very well what he needed. Of course, it was also very good at the sword demon’s deserted tomb. There were many sparring training here to familiarize himself with the power. But Xiangyang City was also good.

Facing Ye Qingshan's departure, Hei Diao was stunned. He looked at Ye Qingshan as if thinking about something, and finally patted Ye Qingshan on the shoulder: "Well, go back and recover, silly bear, Master Diao, I have achieved great magical skills, and I will definitely make you call Master Diao honestly a hundred times."

Ye Qingshan rolled his eyes and said that as a friend, he did not want to expose the other party's illusion of beauty, but the fake is fake, and the black eagle will never catch up with him in this life.

A few hours later, the airship slowly sailed, and the weak Ye Qingshan and Guo Xiang left the sword demon wasteland tomb that belonged to Dugu Qiubai.

After Ye Qingshan left, Yang Guo, who was under the ancient tree, asked Dugu Qiubai with curiosity: "Sir, I'm very curious, why do you tell him these things?"

Dugu Qiubai looked at Yang Guo calmly and asked, "Is there any problem?"

A hint of hesitation appeared on Yang Guo's face, and hesitated for a moment: "No problem, but he is not a human after all."

Dugu Qiubai shrugged and rolled his eyes: "What is different from me, isn't it human?"

Yang Guo opened his mouth and said with a grievance and helpless look on his face: "Sir, you know what I meant."

Dugu Qiubai nodded, and a meditation flashed in his eyes that people like him should have: "Of course I know that you don't mean that, otherwise you wouldn't stand here alive. Although I don't care about the life and death of human beings, as a human being, I still hope to leave a way out for human beings."

Looking at the blue sky above my head, feeling the breeze blowing on my body, feeling the temperature and emotions brought by every breeze, Dugu Qiubai's deep eyes looked into the distance, recalling the battle with Ye Qingshan not long ago, a deep trace flashed in Dugu Qiubai's eyes: "That bear is not simple!"

At the same time, after sailing for a while, Guo Xiang, who was playing with his mobile phone on the airship, suddenly looked at Ye Qingshan with a strange look on his face.

Ye Qingshan noticed Guo Xiang's strange eyes, a hint of doubt appeared on his face, and looked at Guo Xiang with some confusion: "What, is there anything on my face?"

Guo Xiang shook his head and looked at Ye Qingshan with a strange look: "No, Brother Qingshan, your face is very clean."

Ye Qingshan rolled his eyes and snorted angrily: "Then what do you think I'm doing? I'm sick."

Guo Xiang shook his head and looked at Ye Qingshan with a serious look on his face: "Brother Qingshan, my grandfather sent me a message just now."

Ye Qingshan was stunned, a strange look appeared on his face, and he looked at Guo Xiang: "Then is it related to me or is it your grandfather finally figured it out and planned to avenge your sister."

Guo Xiang shook his head: "No, actually my grandfather came to me to ask me to bring you a word."

"What's the matter?" Ye Qingshan was stunned, and a curiosity appeared on his face. It didn't seem like a good thing that Huang Yaoshi looked for him, but Guo Xiang's expression was complicated, not like Huang Yaoshi was trying to trouble him, which made Ye Qingshan feel a little curious.

Then, in Ye Qingshan's curious expression, Guo Xiang said with a strange expression: "My grandfather plans to give you a gift, treating it as a thank you gift for the last time."

"Ah, you're sure." Ye Qingshan was stunned, looking at the other person with confusion, with deep doubts flashing in his eyes.
