Chapter 178 Tian Buyi's Interrogation
Song Daren laughed naively, "You have discovered that you have reached a certain level of physical training, and the third level of the technique is a natural progression, right?"

Murong Ji nodded. This was exactly what he meant. If he wasn’t thinking about the future exercises of Tai Chi Xuanqing Dao.

Murong Ji can now directly cultivate to the ninth level of Yuqing. With the experience of his previous life as a reference, he can cultivate very quickly.

However, it is better to take one step at a time and lay a solid foundation.

Song Daren also gave him the fourth level of skills and sent him to practice.

After returning to his residence, Murong Ji carefully thought about the third level of Tai Chi Xuanqing Taoism. From here on, the two methods began to change.

The Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao has an additional step of cleansing the meridians and marrow, but the Golden Elixir Method does not have this step.

Compare the differences between the two.

The alchemy method left by Zhang Boduan is a large framework, which is relatively rough in details, and Lu Zu's inheritance just completes this point.

The disadvantage is that Murong Ji doesn’t know to what extent the Dharma he learned in his previous life can be used in this world.

However, the Taiji Xuanqing Dao method can reach the Taiqing realm. However, there is no concept of what the Shangqing realm and the Taiqing realm are.

The Tai Chi Xuan Qing Taoism is actually very rough and far less sophisticated than Lu Zu's method, but it is a serious Xuanmen method.

After thinking about it, I decided to focus on Tai Chi Xuanqing Taoism.

Murong Ji had some ideas about cleansing the meridians and removing the marrow. Among the methods he knew, there was one method that was particularly effective, "Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound".

However, Murong Ji was a little worried. His current body had reached a bottleneck. Would the Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound be effective?

Murong Ji frowned slightly, but there was another way, "The nature of a gentleman is not different, he is good at making use of things."

Use some attacks to increase the effect of 'Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound'.

In the days that followed, Murong Ji tried the effect of Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound, but it didn't work.

While returning home, Murong Ji asked his father to prepare a bronze bell that was more than one meter tall.

Copper is synonymous with money in this era, and this bell is not cheap.

Song Daren looked at the bronze bell in front of him in confusion, "Junior brother, what are you going to do again?"

"Cleansing the Meridians and Marrow, Senior Brother. My body is too well-trained. I can't achieve the effect of cleansing the meridians and marrow. I can only think of some other way."

Song Daren: “…”

The two brothers flew twice before they transported the bronze bell and daily necessities from Dazhu Peak back to the mountain and placed them in a valley far away from their residence. Only then did they give up.

In the following year, the sound of the bell on the mountain could often be heard.

Tian Buyi stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the huge bell in the valley, his eyelids drooped, "It seems that Lao Qi's practice is quite effective, you can take them to try it later."

Song Daren's face was filled with misery. Ever since his junior fellow apprentice came, their leisurely life at the mountain gate was gone forever.

It was fine in the past few years, but now that I have reached the third level of Yuqing, how come I am working even harder?!

"Yes, master."

Murong Ji sat cross-legged inside the bell and spat out a mouthful of dirty blood. The fishy smell filled the bell and it was not pleasant.

This method is useful, but it is too harmful to the body. It needs to be assisted by the Nine-Turn Bear Snake Pill in practice in order to be effective.

After a short pause, Murong Ji swallowed another pill and slapped the inside of the bell wall with his palm. With a loud "buzz" sound, Murong Ji quickly guided the frequency of the Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound to increase its effect.

Suddenly, Murong Ji felt relaxed all over, as if he had unloaded a burden, and instantly a sense of strength filled his whole body.

He entered the next stage of practice.

After opening the clock and going out, Murong Ji wrote down his thoughts and then started to look at the fourth level of the exercises.

The fourth level of Tai Chi Xuan Qing Taoism, controlling objects, begins to touch the level of "God".

Although Murong Ji had guessed this long ago, he was still a little hesitant when it really came to this step. The three stages of the Golden Elixir Method required one to start refining the spirit only after the Qi Dan was formed.

At this time, Murong Ji had to make a choice, to focus on the Golden Elixir Method or the Tai Chi Xuanqing Taoism Method.

【Follow the Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao method. 】

Murong Ji was startled. This was the sound of the Diamond Bracelet. "Why?"

[This is a newly formed world, and the current skills are also in the initial exploration stage. ]

[Qingyun Sect has accumulated thousands of years of experience. If you can integrate the Golden Elixir Method with the Taiji Xuanqing Dao, then your trip will not be in vain.]

[Use Taiji Xuanqing Dao Fa to blend with Jindan Fa, and complement each other. You will gain a great advantage in other worlds in the future. ]

Murong Ji understood. To put it bluntly, the Vajra Bracelet brought him to this world just for the sake of martial arts.

He exhaled slowly, and the Diamond Bracelet reminded him.

At present, it seems that Taiji Xuanqing Dao method is more cost-effective and reduces the chance of being discovered. In any case, the integration of the two methods is certain.

The Taiji Xuanqing Dao method is crude, and extremely crude in details. It only tells you to cultivate the spirit, but does not tell you how to cultivate. The Golden Elixir method is different. It accurately tells you how to cultivate.

Murong Ji thought carefully, how about the fourth level of Yuqing realm, integrating the fetal breathing method to refine the spirit?
In a trance, Murong Ji suddenly realized a problem. It seemed that no one had ever stipulated that the Golden Elixir Method must be practiced according to the steps of "essence, energy and spirit".

Thinking back carefully, Master Zhang Boduan also emphasized that, just like the Xiaoyao Sect's Xiao Wuxiang Gong, there is no order of priority among the three.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, closed his eyes and began to practice fetal breathing.

The fetal breathing method nourishes the mind and maximizes the effect of practice.

When he opened his eyes again, it was already late at night. He turned around and saw his master Tian Buyi standing at the window looking at him.

Murong Ji's heart skipped a beat, and he almost stopped beating. He paused for a moment and looked again. With the moonlight behind him, he couldn't see Tian Buyi's expression clearly.

He hurriedly got out of bed and bowed to Tian Buyi, "Master!"

He had guessed that Tian Buyi would come, but he didn't expect it to be so soon. The fetal breathing method, the golden elixir method, and the Lu Zu method might be the ceiling no matter which world they are placed in.

However, in this world, Murong Ji was not sure what level Shangqing and Taiqing were. If he rashly practiced the methods of his previous life, he would not have much confidence that he could compare with Tai Chi Xuanqing Taoism.

Since my martial arts skills are unusual, it is only a matter of time before they are discovered. Fortunately, there is nothing wrong with my origins.

"Well, you are practicing hard."

Murong Ji opened the door and bowed to invite the master in.

Tian Buyi walked into the house with his hands behind his back, glanced at the crowded bookshelf, and found that there were many new books.

After Murong Ji lit the candle, he poured a cup of tea for his master Tian Buyi.

The master and the disciple were silent for a long time, and neither of them spoke first.

Tian Buyi sighed and said, "Seventh Brother, tell me, where did the technique you practice come from?"

Murong Ji said in a deep voice: "Master, it is the Tai Chi Xuanqing Taoism. But..." He paused and didn't know what to say for a moment.

After thinking for a while, he walked to the bookshelf, took out a few books and placed them in front of Tian Buyi.

"Before, when I was chatting with my senior brother, I suddenly asked a question, Master, do you think Qingyun Mountain is high?"

Tian Buyi ignored Murong Ji's question. He frowned and flipped through the book in his hand. There was no cultivation technique in it, only some worldly principles.

There were also some words faintly written by Murong Ji on it.

What is the Tao? It is the source of all things, something that cannot be named. Among the six poles, nothing can change without the Tao. The primordial energy follows the Tao to give birth to all things. The heaven and earth, big or small, are all born from the Tao.

Tian Buyi was stunned and a little surprised. Is this something recorded in ancient books in the mortal world?
I looked at the title of the book, "Taiping Jing".

He picked up another one and began to read softly, "Those without the Way have a primordial heart, those with the Way have a true heart, those who realize the Way have a pure heart, those who give the Way have an ordinary heart, those who practice the Way have a seeking heart, and those who seek the Way have a sincere heart."

Tian Buyi's expression gradually changed. He put down the book and looked at his little disciple with sharp eyes.

Murong Ji knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Master, I have climbed Qingyun Mountain. It takes me a month to walk from the bottom of the mountain to the top. It only takes less than half an hour to fly from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain."

Tian Buyi sighed softly. He understood what Murong Ji meant, but what could he do? Once you were on the mountain, you were in two different worlds than when you were down there.

Then, he saw Murong Ji take out a piece of paper, took it and glanced at it, [This is a draft paper for deducing the skills!!]

Tian Buyi took a closer look, feeling confused and puzzled, and somewhat indescribably surprised.

Murong Ji bowed his head again and said, "The Taiji Xuanqing Dao Fa is the most exquisite Dao Fa in the world, but it only tells the disciples what to do after practicing to this point."

"But he didn't tell his disciples how to do it, how to exercise their muscles and bones, how to clear their meridians, and how to nourish their souls."

"In that case, I can only think of a solution myself."

Tian Buyi looked at the paper again, deducing from the first level to the fourth level. The cultivation steps and the level to be reached for each level were extremely clear.

His eyes lit up, then suddenly became serious, "Do you know why the ancestor never described it as clearly as you did?"

Murong Ji was stunned and remained silent.

Tian Buyi continued, "If we follow the ancestor's standard, no one can reach it. Even if there is, practicing the technique will become extremely difficult."

"Because everyone's physical condition is different. They are almost all different, tall or short, fat or thin, old or weak, strong or thin. If we want to pass on the skills, this is the only way."

"The standard of perfection depends on each person's situation." At this point, Tian Buyi's expression turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "I am a little confused, you come and help me solve the doubts."

After saying that, he picked up his pen and wrote down a set of exercises.

Murong Ji's forehead was covered with sweat. Tian Buyi was definitely not someone who could be fooled. It would not be easy to get past him.

He took the exercise method with a serious look and read it carefully. This was a different exercise method from the Tai Chi Xuanqing Dao method. Regarding the method of cultivating the five internal organs, some parts were extremely crude.

Murong Ji secretly let out a sigh of relief, and just knelt there, writing and drawing on the ground.

He has accumulated enough Taoist knowledge and has extraordinary insights into martial arts. No matter whether it is internal force or true qi, the method of practice is the same at its root.
