The Martial World
E-23 Understand

Lin Ming said, “Smartial arts are divided into two main parts. First develop the martial path, and then grasp the principles to attain enlightenment. Processing the martial path meant cultivating the body. To enlighten oneself is to cultivate the soul. Teachers often say that life is a sea of infinite bitterness. Cultivation is a path across the waters. To cultivate the body means to make a boat that can cross the ocean, and to train the soul means to make paddles to move the boat. "

“If one does not train his body, then his boat will not be sturdy or strong; the storm will easily reverse it. If one did not cultivate a soul, then their motivation and willpower would not be enough, and even if the destiny of their meeting was imminent, they would not be able to arrive at the distant shore. "

“But body cultivation and soul cultivation is the difference in transition from the houtian stage to the xiantian stage. Before houtian, martial artists would train the body, after xiantian, martial artists would train the soul. ”

“After xiantian, cultivate soul! As soon as she heard it, Muyi was startled, and felt like she was about to faint. No wonder over the years he practiced he couldn't take that small step. He realized that he had been heading in the wrong direction the entire time. He did not imagine the xiantian stage to be like this. He muttered, “And what does xiantian mean?”

Lin Ming said, “Teacher once said that the answer lies in how the baby breathes in the womb. She said that when humans were babies in the womb, they could not breathe through the nose or mouth, but had to rely on the mother to feed them through their relationship alone. This is how they breathe. This is a xiantian characteristic. After humans are born, they can breathe through their nose and mouth. This worldly air was filled with dirt that gradually accumulated. These are houtian features. In the xiantian stage the soul enters a state of unparalleled tranquility and peace. Their bodies change the way they interact with their environment and souls become aware of the world and are able to communicate with nature, even being able to move the powers of heaven and earth with the power of the soul. That's the real xiantian.

“So... so... so... that's it...” Muyi murmured softly. His eyes showed admiration and disappointment. This young boy casually uttered a few words similar to ancient enlightenment. If this boy had this teaching, guided by a top-tier xiantian skill manual, then he would soon become a martial arts master!

Sects and clans could rely on their inheritances and legacies; a martial artist trying to fumble would be impossible to think of these things. Muyi wail, “How laughable! To think that I achieved pulse condensation at thirty-six years of age and then reached houtian at fifty years of age, and after that I spent sixty years exhausting all my efforts to step into the xiantian realm! And I've been wrong all the time! I have been on the wrong path all along! I have wasted sixty years! It's unfortunate! Really regrettable! "

Muyi's face looked excited, but his emotions were extremely complex. Lin Ming stood to the side and watched, his heart sighing. This old man had not inherited an inheritance, yet wanted to step into the xiantian boundary; this was naturally hopeless. One needed the inheritance and understanding of the sect to achieve this, but which sect did not stubbornly control their secrets from spreading?

Not only that, but from houtian to xiantian one needed to restore their soul to a state within the womb. It requires the most valuable and rare medicines. This method of producing medicines and rare materials was tightly controlled by the sect. Not to mention the commoners, but even the royal family could not afford it!

So even if Lin Ming told Muyi this memory of his, even if he wanted to use it to advance to the xiantian stage, it was simply impossible.

Therefore, Lin Ming said, “Senior, I will say honestly that the master once said that if one does not have the support of the clan, it is not, even if one obtained a skill manual that allowed them to enter the xiantian stage, it was still impossible. ”

Muyi said, “I know... I know. only I have long struggled to reach the xiantian stage. This is my life's lifetime hope. Even if I cannot achieve this wish of mine, but at least let me see its direction and know where my mistake is, then I can also die peacefully and without regret. "

Although Muyi said these words easily, the tone behind him was lonely. Lin Ming also inescapably sighed with emotion. If he did not obtain that mystic magic cube, then perhaps he would also become like Muyi, after reaching the houtian stage he would forever try to trace the illusion dream of a lifetime to reach the xiantian realm, and would eventually endure this regret even when he died.

Muyi pondered for a long time, and finally said to Lin Ming, Little friend, I feel like an old friend even after meeting for the first time. If this little friend doesn't mind my old age, I'd like to make good friends with you. "

Lin Ming also had a good impression of Muyi who had earnestly pursued martial arts his entire life. He said, "Lin Ming also wants to be your friend."

"Ha huh! Then no other day is as lucky as today! Let's go down and party at the Great Clarity Pavilion. We will drink wine and talk fast and free! What about that good friend? ”

Lin Ming hesitated slightly, and then agreed. He also said, "Senior, about the inscription technique, I want to ask senior to keep it a secret for me."

Although Lin Ming created imaginary masters for himself, he also wanted to avoid those blinded by greed and risk whatever happened. Therefore, it was better to be humble about this inscription technique.

Muyi correctly guessed Lin Ming's worries and said, “Sister Lin feels relieved. As long as the Martial Quarters of Sky Fortune City exist, I guarantee your absolute safety! As long as the younger brother encounters any problems at all, then just send me a voice transmission talisman and I will handle it personally. About this, but now I might know everything, but ..why little brother Lin should sell inscription symbols and also work in the Great Clarity Pavilion. Is this for training? ”

Listening to Muyi ask this, Lin Ming forced a smile and said, “That's for economic reasons. The teacher taught me but never gave me money. My family is ordinary, so it is not enough for me to cultivate on the path of martial arts.

“Like that, it must be the way of a true martial artist. There is no anger, no waste, no greed, no laziness, and true difficulty to forge spirit. Your teacher must have consciously made this informed and experienced decision, because he naturally had his own reasons and truths. That's the case, although I don't know if this goes against your master's opinion, but if little brother Lin still wants to sell your inscription symbol, I can buy it at a market price. If it was an inscription symbol carved into a flame, would 3000 gold taels be enough?

After Lin Ming heard this price, his heart almost jumped out of his chest.3000 gold taels!

3000 Gold taels, but since he had three, that meant 9000 gold taels! Although Lin Ming expected his writing symbol to rise in price, he had not expected him to receive 9,000 gold taels!

What concept is 9000 gold taels! The Lin Ming family restaurant was also valued at 3,000 gold taels. If he could buy that restaurant then his parents wouldn't have to work hard every day.

As for blood ginseng and other medicines, he could eat one and throw it away, because for Ling Ming, making another inscription symbol was an easy matter.

Ling calmed the excitement in his heart and said to Muyi, "Thank you very much, senior."

Muyi naturally saw Lin Ming's excitement. When Lin Ming was with his master, he lived a simple and poor life, but now he suddenly arrived at this living capital. A fifteen year old young man would find it hard to resist all the wonders and admiration and treasures the world has to offer.

Muyi said, “Symbol inscription younger brother Lin naturally at this price. Also, please don't call me senior. My name is Muyi, my full name is Mu Yi Zhuo, just Muyi. ”

"This ..." Lin Ming hesitated a bit. Although he did not know who this old man was, he only needed to look at Qin Xingxuan's attitude to suspect that this man's status was high. But Lin Ming was not one to be affected by the convention, as Muyi said so, so be it. He just nodded in agreement.

Muyi smiled and said, “Xingxuan, let's have the Great Clarity Pavilion set aside a room for a banquet. I want to have a drink with little brother Lin. "

Qin Xingxuan was silent. He had also carefully listened to Lin Ming's explanation of what xiantian meant. Now that he heard Muyi say this, he said excitedly, "Yes sir."

When the staff of the Great Clarity Pavilion heart that Muyi was organizing a banquet and asked Lin Ming to drink, everyone turned pale. What kind of person is Muyi? He was an honorary Martial Quarter official who was invited to serve in the court. Master Qin Xingxuan was also the teacher of the crown prince. The price of his crown will ascend the throne in the future, and Muyi will become the emperor's teacher! Not only that, but Muyi's cultivation was profound, and he was also an expert in inscription techniques and an expert in astronomy, geography, and the ancient divination arts. He really is an amazing person! Even the emperor had to give him three points of respect.

But he actually asked Lin Ming, the deboning boy, to eat. Moreover, when the two left the kitchen, it seemed like they were talking very familiarly like they were contemporaries. What kind of background did Lin Ming have?

If his original background was not small, would he willingly come to the Great Clarity Pavilion for demolition work? As the saying goes, the man stood far away from the kitchen; the kitchen and especially the work of the butcher had always been hated and looked down upon by martial artists and scholars. Lin Ming had dismantling skills that they admired, but it was hard to say that it was a good job.

“What background is a small helicopter sparerib Lin?”

“I don't really know..”

The two maids who were serving the guests couldn't help but chat amongst themselves while they were serving. They were both dedicated staff serving high-level guests, and were each around twenty years old, with outstanding looks and were also proficient in the art of poetry and painting. They first saw Muyi and Qin Xingxuan enter the Great Clarity Pavilion and were shocked. After all, this type of honored guest was rare, and once it happened there was a ten taels gold reward for good service which was equivalent to two months of salary. But they didn't really think that they had come to look for Lin Ming.

The banquet dish is simple, but very beautiful in taste and texture. The liquor was several hundred taels of gold and was called red dragon liquor; it was specially prepared through secret recipes and mixed with various rare herbs. A martial artist who drank this drink could heal their internal injuries and improve a stronger and fitter body along with a higher cultivation level. But the manufacturing method was complicated and the materials used were extremely valuable. Let alone Lin Ming, even a noble junior was unable to enjoy it.

In the banquet, Muyi wanted to ask Lin Ming if he wanted to stay in Martial Arts, but Lin Ming thought it would be troublesome to practice martial arts there while preventing people from discovering his secrets, he said, so he refused politely.

Muyi was forced to give up, but because of that his opinion of Lin Ming increased. Before leaving, he left behind 9000 gold taels along with a purple-gold VIP card. Through this card it is possible to receive a 10% discount from any store that falls under the jurisdiction of the chamber of commerce, and in Sky Fortune City almost every major ship is under them.

He finally managed to obtain 9000 taels of gold. He looked at these thick gold banknotes and felt extremely excited. His blood boiled and finally proudly raised his head!

9000 Taels of gold and he would send 3000 taels of gold to his parents. He would have enough leftovers to purchase the medicine to easily enter into the second stage of body transformation. If he obtained precious medicines and increased their effects with inscription techniques, then even breaking through the pulse condensation period would be an easy matter.

He had been destined to step far in the path of martial arts. If in the past Zhu Yan was like a mountain that Lin Ming could only traverse with great difficulty, now Zhu Yan could only become a stepping stone on his martial arts path. Lin Ming would only step on him to reach a higher peak.

Lin Ming was in a good mood. He gave a voice transmission talisman to notify Lin Xiaodong. “Dongdong, let's go, today I will treat you shopping. See you at the entrance of the Hundred Treasure Hall. "

Lin Xiaodong had helped Lin Ming many times. This kind of sentiment is priceless! And now that his own situation was better since he already had wealth, he would naturally help him back. A man should always return the favor!

"Go shopping?" After Lin Xiaodong saw the sound transmission talisman, he thought, this madman also has the money to use the sound transmission talisman?
