Chapter 61 Meridian-Opening, Marrow-Cleansing, and Spirit-Nourishing Pills

Immortal Master Xisong saved up all the spiritual stones he got and bought the Pulse Opening Pill. He was not even willing to use it for daily practice, let alone buy luxury goods such as holding talismans, so he always kept his things in his arms. In the end, Songhe Laodao, an ordinary person, would get his hands on it.

The matter was a mistake and a coincidence. Master and disciple Qingyang must not know about it, but once the thing is in their hands, it will naturally belong to them, and Immortal Master Xisong will not be able to live again and ask for it.

After a deep relationship between master and disciple, and worried about long nights and many dreams, Master Songhe asked Qingyang to take the pulse-opening pill right now in front of him. However, in order to avoid being disturbed by external objects, Qingyang first went outside to find some stones and branches and blocked the entrance of the cave.

After all preparations were made, Qingyang made preparations deep in the cave. Then he carefully crushed the jade shell on the outside of the pill and swallowed the pulse-opening, marrow-clearing and nourishing pill.

When the elixir enters the mouth, it tastes bitter. I have never tasted this before, and I don’t know if it tastes right. But he had already eaten it, so there was no point regretting it. Not long after, the elixir turned into a ball of liquid, flowed down Qingyang's throat into his stomach, and then dispersed into his limbs and bones.

I don't know how long it took, but Qingyang suddenly felt that his body began to slowly heat up, as if there was a furnace in his belly, baking his body warmly.

Perhaps the body's fever had already started, but Qingyang didn't notice it, which was like boiling a frog in warm water. By the time he felt it clearly, the heat in his body had almost reached the limit that ordinary people could bear, and his body was frighteningly hot.

This was already considered a high fever. When a person's body reaches this level, most people would feel dizzy, extremely uncomfortable, and even unconscious. But Qingyang didn't know why, but his mind was still very clear. Perhaps this is the necessary process after taking Kaimai Dan.

When the temperature of the body rose to a certain level, it slowly stopped changing and gradually stabilized. However, at this time, Qingyang suddenly found that he could not move. It was as if someone had captured her with a magic spell. She was thinking about movements in her mind, but her body didn't obey her orders. She couldn't move or even make a sound.

At this moment, he felt waves of pain, all over his limbs and bones, as if there were thousands of ants in his body, biting everywhere, and the pain was everywhere.

This kind of pain is different from the pure pain of physical injury. There is soreness in the pain, itching in the soreness, numbness in the itching, and pain in the numbness. It goes deep into the bone marrow and the pain into the soul. You can't scratch it, pinch it, touch it, and can't help it. Your whole body feels uncomfortable, but you can't describe what it feels like.

Qingyang wanted to do something else to divert his attention, but he couldn't move his body yet, so he could only endure it. Qingyang wanted to scream a few times to vent his pain, but he couldn't scream as if his neck was being strangled.

Occasionally, a few hums came from the depths of the cave. The sounds reached my ears, but they were so low that I couldn't hear them clearly. Like drowning, like pain, like crying, like talking, like roaring, like mourning, like lingering, it seems to be the sound coming from the nose, the resonance coming from the throat, and the light sound coming from the friction of muscles in the body. ring.

Qingyang didn't expect that taking the Kaimai Pill would be so uncomfortable. At this time, he felt like he couldn't live but couldn't die. It was almost despairing. If possible, Qingyang really wanted to scream heartbreakingly, but unfortunately he couldn't move or make a sound.

I knew that the road to immortality would be difficult, but I never expected that the first step would be so difficult. But I have already chosen this path, how could I back down just because of a little difficulty? I had to eat the pulse-opening pill with tears in my eyes, and grit my teeth to endure it.

Old Taoist Songhe saw all the changes in Qingyang's body and felt pain in his heart. However, he knew nothing about the way of cultivating immortals and could not help him in any way. He could only pray secretly for his disciple in his heart and pray for the blessings of the gods and Buddhas in the sky. Keep your disciples safe. Old Taoist Songhe had never worshiped the Sanqing Patriarch sincerely in his life, but this time he was really sincere.

Qingyang didn't know that the so-called meridian-opening and marrow-cleansing pill was to open the meridians and cleanse the marrow first, opening the meridians of the whole body so that the body could capture the spiritual energy from the outside world, use the acupoints all over the body to absorb the spiritual energy, and pass it through the body. The spiritual veins within him are refined into his own true energy.

Reiki is an extremely violent energy. Ordinary people's meridians, acupuncture points, and meridians simply cannot bear it. They must be completely opened by the Kaimei Pill, and then cleaned, dredged, nourished, and strengthened so that they can withstand the reiki in the body. circulation and use.

Normally, most people would experience extreme pain when cupping a cup outside the body and even taking a pulse, let alone such a deep-level cleansing of the pulse and marrow. If the willpower is not strong enough, it is possible to die from the pain.

The second function of the Pulse Opening Marrow Nourishing Pill is to open the shackles of the soul, allowing the cultivator to cultivate spiritual thoughts, making it easier for the body to feel the existence of external spiritual energy, and absorb and refine it for one's own use.

Therefore, the first difference between immortal cultivators and warriors like Master and Disciple Qingyang is the way in which they improve their cultivation. Because warriors cannot sense spiritual energy or absorb spiritual energy from the outside world, and their bodies and meridians cannot withstand the impact of heavenly materials and earthly treasures that contain a large amount of energy, they can only refine the energy in their bodies and transform it into their own internal skills.

There is no panacea, and there is no way to absorb external spiritual energy. How much energy can you gather just by eating food? Even if they are all supplemented with a large amount of meat, this process is extremely slow, so warriors often have difficulty breaking through for decades, and remain ordinary people throughout their lives.

The immortal cultivators have more ways. They can refine and absorb the energy in their bodies. Their strong bodies and spiritual veins can also withstand the violent energy of natural treasures and elixirs to improve their cultivation. They can also sense the spiritual energy of the outside world and then absorb and refine it to strengthen themselves. They can even absorb the spiritual energy in the spiritual stone for their own use.

The second difference between immortal cultivators and warriors is the divine consciousness. After taking the Kaimai Pill, the shackles of the cultivator's Yuanshen are opened, and the divine consciousness of the Yuanshen can feel all the changes around them. This perception is more detailed and real than eyes and ears.

Warriors do not have Yuanshen and divine consciousness. They can only rely on their eyes and ears to feel the outside world. However, through certain training, the perception of warriors can also be slightly improved, but this improvement is almost negligible compared with immortal cultivators.

Yuanshen represents the realm of the cultivator, and cultivation represents the strength of the cultivator. The two are complementary. As the level of cultivation improves, one must have a more powerful soul to control it. If the soul is powerful but there is no corresponding level of cultivation, it will not be able to exert a powerful effect.
