Chapter 196 Divine Communication and Dual Cultivation (Subscription Request)
In the Wutong Courtyard at the Xu Mansion, Xu Qing will set out for the Haisha Gang headquarters tomorrow, but in his eyes now, this is just a trivial matter.

One day before departure, Xu Qing still had some leisure time and read a copy of "Chongyang Quanzhen Collection".

This is a unique copy that Xu Qing specifically ordered his men to search for from all over the place.

Naturally, there is no cultivation method in it, but some stories about Wang Chongyang's cultivation.

For example, this chapter mainly talks about the "living dead".

Chongyang Zhenren integrated the three religions into one, and his process of cultivating himself to become a martial arts master drew on the "Heart Sutra of Prajna Paramita" of Buddhism.

He dug a tomb in Mount Zhongnan, called the "Tomb of the Living Dead", and practiced alchemy in it.

The so-called living dead are those without eyes, ears, nose, body, and mind, and without form, sound, smell, taste, and touch as described in the Heart Sutra.

A martial arts master is one who has cultivated his qi and blood into the way of alchemy and achieved perfection.

This is why it is difficult for masters of spiritual power to sense martial arts masters with their spiritual thoughts.

His qi and blood are restrained, he doesn't see, hear, or think, he is like a living dead, between death and immortality.

Once the mind and soul have passed away, naturally they will not be able to sense any life force.

It can be said that the metaphor of the living dead precisely reveals the essence of the "Inner Alchemy".

Xu Qing has reached the upper level of Xuantian Miaoyin Xisui Dafa and Hubao Leiyin. His wonderful use of qi and blood is unmatched except by the martial arts masters.

He read the deeds of his predecessors not to imitate them, but to combine them to form an understanding that is beneficial to himself.

This is called the Six Classics Annotating Me.

If you don't have this level of understanding, then your reading will be in vain.

At this time, Feng Wu walked into the yard.

She was shocked when she saw Xu Qing's expression, "Husband, are you sick? How come?"

She immediately realized that her husband was so strong, how could he be sick? But it was hard to say when it came to cultivation. If there was a mistake in the movement of Qi and blood, it would be more frightening than being sick.

Xu Qing smiled, and his blood and energy filled his limbs and bones again. He said, "I am trying the inner alchemy method, striving to reach the threshold of martial arts master as soon as possible. You can try it too."

"Can I do it too?" Feng Wu asked in surprise.

Xu Qing: "Alchemy is a realm and also a theory. It can be used in martial arts, in the soul, and in everything."

Dandao means perfection, but it is also the perfection of a stage.

The master of martial arts is considered to be practicing the art of alchemy. It is at this stage of the master of martial arts that, after a new breakthrough, the qi, blood, body and even the soul will undergo a new transformation. At this time, it is necessary to re-comprehend the art of alchemy and perfect oneself again.

The premise of breaking down and then establishing is that you have reached a bottleneck. What bottleneck is that? It is the perfection of a stage of cultivation, forming a circle. No matter how you cultivate, you are within this circle.

In this way, one naturally has to break through in order to reach a higher realm.

When you reach a new realm, everything starts all over again, from imperfection to perfection.

Therefore, the more powerful a practitioner is, the most difficult hurdle in cultivation is often within himself.

Breaking yourself is the hardest thing.

No one wants to reinvent themselves.

And it's like a piece of porcelain. If it is broken and then reshaped, will it definitely be better? I'm afraid it can't be repaired or restored.

Therefore, there are also huge risks in destroying and then rebuilding.

Just like a dynasty, once it is established, it is very difficult to successfully reform it internally, because it is necessary to destroy some things, even some fatal ones.

It is so difficult to change someone else's life, let alone changing your own life. If you don't do it well, it will be equivalent to suicide and you will be ridiculed by future generations.

But those who are courageous and wise will not back down.

Such people can accept failure, but can never accept mediocrity.

Sima Huan said it well, even if we cannot be remembered for centuries, we will at least be remembered for eternity.

Xu Qing held Feng Wu's hand, and the sound of nature vibrated. Feng Wu subconsciously responded with the sound of earth. She was now completely led by Xu Qing and began to practice the Mysterious Heaven Wonderful Sound Marrow Cleansing Method.

But unlike before, her heart, pulse, and breathing all stopped beating, and all pulse signs stopped. Only in one place below her abdomen, there seemed to be a small hot ball that was constantly rotating and concentrating.

This was Xu Qing showing Feng Wu the Qi and Blood Alchemy that he had comprehended without reservation.

It is because husband and wife are so close that they can trust each other without reservation and perceive all of this.

Xu Qing's mind and Feng Wu's mind were connected at this moment, open to each other. After a long time, the mysterious sound stopped.

Feng Wu opened his eyes and sighed with satisfaction, "Just now, I felt as if I were dead. No, I felt somewhere between death and immortality."

In the past, she and Xu Qing had practiced dual cultivation of body, qi and blood, and had tried Taoist flute-blowing, locking the golden gate, and reverse inhalation, but none of the gains were as great as this time.

Because of the condensation of qi and blood, the biggest benefit is that it can directly penetrate the soul.

Just now, her soul was greatly stimulated.

There is great terror between life and death, the state of the living dead, which is close to this feeling. Under the stimulation of this great terror, the soul will grow.

It is similar to what the ascetics call stealing the secrets from heaven and catching thunder from heaven. Although the benefits are not as great, it is safer.

Feng Wu looked at Xu Qing with tears in her eyes. Her spirit seemed to flow out like water.

The book that destroys love, love is water.

Tenderness is like water, affection is like the sea...

The true form of her soul is water, which is ever-changing.

The young woman's soul floated out and turned into an eye of the sea.

Xu Qing's soul also flew out, it was a little dragon.

Hidden dragon in the abyss!

The souls of both parties began to communicate at the deepest level.

Originally, Feng Wu had planned to communicate with Xu Qing spiritually when he broke through the possession realm and help Xu Qing break through smoothly, but in the end her husband succeeded on his own.

Now the situation is reversed, and it is Xu Qing who helps her reach a higher level of the Book of Destruction of Love, allowing her to cultivate her soul and move closer to the peak of manifestation.

Of course, Xu Qing can also further understand the way of alchemy through the dual cultivation of spiritual communication.

The spiritual intercourse between a man and a woman is also a kind of elixir, a perfection in which they complement each other.

The heavenly and earthly sounds of the Xuantian Miaoyin Xisui Dafa were like a medicine. Now the spirits of the two had entered into a higher level of spiritual connection. The stimulation and experience were a thousand times better than cultivating both bodies together.

In fact, Xu Qing's practice of the Xuantian Miaoyin Marrow Cleansing Method, which cleanses the marrow and replaces the blood, is also a process of rebirth.

This is the feedback from the spirit and soul to the body.

Use spirit to transform into Qi, and use Qi to transform into essence.

It can be said that a great master of internal martial arts is still ordinary, while a martial arts master is extraordinary, and a martial arts saint is a saint.

Xu Qing's soul is at the level of a possessed master, and when he comprehended the realm of a martial arts master, he was reborn more thoroughly.

In fact, as the most intelligent creatures on earth, the real strength of humans lies in their wisdom, brain, and soul. Their physical bodies are far superior to those of many beasts and birds of prey.

Especially birds of prey.

A bird of prey weighing dozens of kilograms dares to hunt animals weighing hundreds of kilograms.

Xu Qing has recently been studying and discovered that there are many mysterious bird-shaped characters in ancient Chinese characters, which are meant to communicate with the heavens. He also carefully observed birds and discovered something.

The body structure of birds is very fluid.

In fact, whether it is the human body structure or the body structure of many animals, some defects can be found, but birds have obvious advantages in this regard, and it is difficult to find defects.

For example, when the wings of many birds are retracted upward, each feather will turn to a vertical direction. This ensures that air can pass through without resistance and does not cause excessive resistance due to the wings being pointed upward, hindering liftoff.

This also shows that birds' muscles can control each feather.

So even if humans were to make wings out of bird feathers and flap them vigorously, they would still not be able to fly like birds.

Controlling the direction of each feather, when used in martial arts, means having strong and subtle control over one's own muscles.
The form and meaning of martial arts is to go from form to meaning.
By observing these birds or powerful beasts, we can perceive the subtle principles and integrate them into martial arts.
This is the power of wisdom
Xu Qing and Feng Wu returned to the room, from their souls to their bodies...

This is a true union of soul and flesh.

Both parties have achieved the ultimate harmony of life.
After the incident, Feng Wu held on to his soft body to ensure that none of the semen he had obtained leaked out.

This is something Princess Dongming has been trying hard to obtain.

Oh, women's terrible sense of competition
Xu Qing smiled secretly

Before leaving, he tried his best to feed his little wife

On the second day, Xu Qing set out in high spirits

He brought Su Lianqing with him, because she had to take care of the aftermath of the Haisha Gang.
Xu Qing and Su Lianqing first arrived at Madam Haisha's villa outside the city. It was a rural area with many villages and people around.
When passing by the village, Xu Qing also found that many people there had martial arts skills, but most of them were very superficial.

But the Kung Fu they practiced did have some secrets, with some influences of Taoist martial arts.
When they arrived at the villa, there were many ferocious beasts and birds in the outer courtyard, the most terrifying of which were eight mastiffs.

With these eight mastiffs guarding the night, even a master of spirits and demons would not dare to break in easily.

"Madam, Xu Jieyuan and Miss Su are here."

Su Lianqing had a lot of interactions with Madam Haisha, and the housekeeper here knew of her existence.

The yard is full of fragrance, and there are many flowers and plants planted. It is spring now, and all the flowers are in full bloom.

It is very pleasant to live in such a manor.

Xu Qing never cared much about enjoyment, but at this moment, he felt like he was falling into a gentle land.

I have to admit that if a single old rich woman doesn't have a man to nourish her, she can only rely on flowers and plants. In this regard, she is obviously very concerned.

A girl about fifteen years old, dressed in men's clothes, appeared. She had a capable figure and was obviously skilled in martial arts. She looked hostile towards Xu Qing.

"Yan'er, Xu Jieyuan and Miss Su are here to help us, please don't be rude."

"Yes, mother."

Madam Haisha came out to greet them and called Xu Qing and Su Lianqing.

The person named Yan'er is her daughter Jin Yanzi.

Mrs. Haisha's late husband was married into the family, so her daughter took her surname Jin. She was the only daughter of the previous leader of the Haisha Gang. Her late husband died in a shipwreck, and her father also passed away.

Naturally, she could not maintain the family business by herself, so she was recruited by Prince Yu and became his concubine.

Originally, he had the support of Prince Yu and lived a comfortable life. But now, because he was controlled by Xu Qing and angered Prince Yu, his life became very difficult again.

Jin Yanzi naturally knew all these things, so she was very hostile towards Xu Qing and Su Lianqing.

Xu Qing naturally wouldn't bother with the kid and went to the hall.

Mrs. Haisha asked him to sit in the main seat.

Golden Swallow served tea.

The tea was boiling hot and emitting white smoke.

Xu Qing picked up the hot teacup and said playfully, "Madam, do you still have the custom of inviting people to drink Kung Fu tea here?"

Mrs. Haisha couldn't help feeling embarrassed.

Jin Yanzi said: "You don't even dare to drink this bowl of tea, how can you help us?"

Xu Qing smiled and said, "You are quite charming, little girl. Come out."

He sat in the main seat, with the statue of Emperor Tianguan behind him.

For those who go out to sea, good and bad luck are unpredictable. Therefore, people here like to worship the Emperor of Heaven who is in charge of the good and bad luck of the world, and pray for the Emperor's blessing when they go out to sea.

As soon as Xu Qing finished speaking, many young men came in. They seemed to be villagers from nearby villages. All of them had some kung fu skills, but in Xu Qing's eyes, ordinary bone-training warriors only had mediocre skills, let alone these people.

Obviously these young men are led by Jin Yanzi.

The tea bowl in Xu Qing's hand spun around, and drops of tea flew out and hit the young men. They couldn't help but scream as if they were hit by a hidden weapon.

"Dripping water can wear away a stone?" Jin Yanzi said in shock.

Xu Qing smiled calmly and said, "Little girl, it is not your turn to interfere when adults are discussing matters. Your mother did not stop you this time because she wanted you to know what is high and what is deep, so as to avoid causing disaster in the future. You should leave now."

As he spoke, he blew gently.

It was this breath that immediately turned into a torrent of wind and blew Golden Swallow out of the door.

Such martial arts are just like those of a god.

Jin Yanzi's face was full of disbelief.

The other young men also retreated in a hurry. Looking at Xu Qing again, they felt that this man was no different from the statue of the Emperor of Heaven hanging in the hall. He was not someone that mortals like them could mess with.

Everyone left in a panic.

Madam Haisha apologized, "Sir, my daughter is naughty. Thank you for your discipline."

Xu Qing smiled and said, "It's not her fault. If it weren't for me, the Madam and her family would still be living a good life now."

Madam Haisha said hurriedly, "I dare not."

Xu Qing: "Since you have surrendered to me, I will naturally protect you. Before coming here, I have already learned a little about the Haisha Gang, but I would like to know more. Please let me know, Madam."

Mrs. Haisha knew that the lives of her family were in Xu Qing's hands. If she couldn't get through this hurdle, she would have nowhere to stay. She quickly told him the news she had recently heard.

"Changbai Mountain, Qingmu Heavenly Demon Formation? The old demon lord of the Seven Killing Demon Palace?"

Xu Qing learned a piece of information from Madam Haisha that Su Lianqing had not found out. This person was a guest elder of the Haisha Gang, surnamed Liang, and was a ginseng collector from Changbai Mountain. He was very powerful in Taoism.

Now that he has received guidance from the Demon Lord of the Seven Killing Demon Palace, his magical powers have greatly increased, and he is now quite prestigious in the Haisha Gang.

Mrs. Haisha also revealed that this person has a deep background in the core of the imperial court.

After Xu Qing understood this, he began to take it a little more seriously.

This Black Mountain Monster is known as the number one monster in all the mountains and rivers, and is also known as the best master in the world. So far, no one has defeated it head-on.

Xu Qing heard from Captain Zuo that in the previous generation of Shangqing Palace in Laoshan, several senior masters had been killed by the Black Mountain Demon.

The Quanzhen Longmen Sect and others also suffered heavy losses at the hands of the Black Mountain Old Demon.

The previous generation of Xuantian Shenglong Daoist master was injured by this old demon master before he could master the art, and was forced to transform into a corpse...

"If it is the Black Mountain Old Demon, I will naturally be no match for him, but if you want to call yourself a master in front of me just because you have learned a few basic skills, that is definitely not enough." Xu Qing looked at the little snake of luck in his body, and the black energy was obviously normal.

He also heard that the Qingmu Heavenly Demon Formation had been broken by the founder of Xuantian Shenglong Dao, the sloppy Taoist, using the Three Yin Demon-Slaying Sword, so he naturally felt more relieved.

This is called professional dialogue.

In fact, the Three Yin Demon-Slaying Sword of Xuantian Shenglong Dao has always been able to restrain the magical powers of the Seven Killing Demon Palace, but the old Black Mountain Demon Lord of this generation has cultivated an extremely powerful magical power, which seriously injured the Taoist master of the previous generation of Xuantian Shenglong Dao.

However, after that, this generation of the Black Mountain Old Demon has not left the Seven Killing Demon Palace in Changbai Mountain for half a century.

This old monster is a celestial demon, and his lifespan is longer than that of a martial saint.

When he was rampant throughout the world in the past, he had great grudges with many sects, but he has survived to this day, which shows how capable he is.

He felt that the fact that Elder Liang of the Haisha Gang received guidance from the Black Mountain Old Demon might be a sign that the old demon would be born again.

It is true that when a country is about to perish, there will be evildoers.

Xu Qing made some daily complaints, and then asked about other matters of the Haisha Gang.

He is just too meticulous.

Because many things can be reflected in the details.

In fact, leaving aside the existence of the Seven Killings Demon Palace in Changbai Mountain, this mountain is also a natural treasure mountain with many rare medicinal materials. In addition, there are other mountains and forests in Liaodong that hide many natural treasures.

These are also the motivations for many people to go outside the Great Wall to search for treasures.

Especially hundreds of years ago, the Jurchens entered the Central Plains, plundered a lot of wealth, and hid it outside the Great Wall.

The Taoist Master Chongyang had taken the imperial examination during the Jurchen Dynasty.

This shows how powerful the Jurchens were at that time.

For hundreds of years, there have been rumors that the Jurchens outside the Great Wall plundered the treasures of the Central Plains. In particular, the Jurchens once broke into the capital of the Han Dynasty at that time and plundered the Han Dynasty’s accumulation, including the Taoist traditions of previous generations and many precious instruments and sacred objects...

Some even say that the Black Mountain Old Demon became the world's number one demon because he got a part of the treasure. Therefore, in order to repay the kindness of the Jurchens, the Black Mountain Old Demon became the patron saint of the Jurchens outside the Great Wall...

Xu Qing had heard many versions, but Mrs. Haisha obviously knew more details.

She also mentioned that the Dongyi people not only occupied Fuso Island, but also planned to conquer Goryeo.

The Goryeo Kingdom is completely incomparable to the previous Goguryeo. The Goryeo Kingdom only had a peninsula, while Goguryeo once occupied the huge Liaodong and competed with the Central Plains dynasty for hegemony over this continent.

Once the Dongyi people conquered Goryeo, they would be able to directly threaten Liaodong, and the Dongyi people themselves could also threaten Dongshan Province. Under the two threats, the Dayu Dynasty would face tremendous border pressure in the northeast and east.

Goryeo was a vassal state of the Dayu Dynasty, so the attack of the Dongyi people would naturally attract the attention of the Dayu Dynasty.

The reintegration of the Haisha Gang was also because the imperial court believed that the scattered Haisha Gang could hardly exert a restraining effect on the Dongyi people, so it needed to be integrated.

Xu Qing has already cooperated with the Dongming Gang and has also built up some influence in Dongshan Province. Logically, he should have been kicked out of the Haisha Gang.

His action was completely overstepping the boundaries.

But Xu Qing doesn't think so. Everything in the world depends on competition. If you don't compete, you will let others compete with you, and you will be the one who suffers in the end.

He has eaten everything, so there is no reason for him to vomit it out.

Of course, there were also some bigwigs in the court who felt that Xu Qing was too popular and needed to be suppressed.

To be honest, is Xu Qing really too popular?

Every single thing Xu Qing did was forced upon him by the imperial court.

Saying this now, I feel a bit like I am disgusted by the fact that I have done something ugly.

Xu Qing naturally refused.

He also knew that the court was on the right track in reform, so naturally some people wanted to reap the benefits. But Xu Qing was now the sharpest knife of the reformists, so how could they reap the benefits if they didn't deal with him?
The Haisha Gang is just the beginning.

Moreover, Prince Yu's attitude also invisibly increased the confidence of these people.

No matter how much you turn the world upside down, if you offend the de facto crown prince, the future emperor, can you have a good ending?

Xu Qing now understood the Prime Minister's state of mind. It was really difficult to govern the country with this group of insects. In his opinion, eliminating these people was more important than eliminating the difficulties of reform, and it could solve the problem better.
