chapter 81
"Junshan martial arts is a grand event for the younger generation in the martial arts world to make friends with martial arts!"
"It is held every three years, and all warriors under the age of twenty are eligible to participate."
Farewell to the relatives and friends who came to see him off, Han Sheng and others headed toward the Central Plains under the leadership of Master Shenji. Along the way, perhaps to adjust the atmosphere, or perhaps to let the young disciples learn more, Master Shenji, who was responsible for leading the team, kept explaining to everyone about Junshan’s martial arts.
"For the martial arts people, being able to enter the top 100 martial arts in Junshan is no less than those literati who participated in the imperial examinations and left their names on the gold list."
"After these people became famous in Junshan, unless they had unresolved grudges, warriors with higher martial arts skills in the world would not easily attack them-"
"After all kinds of accidents, geniuses who show off their talents in Junshan martial arts meetings have a great possibility to become innate masters!"
Speaking about the significance of Junshan's martial arts, Shen Ji looked at the disciples who participated in the martial arts at Vajra Sect and said:
"You are genius disciples of this sect. The Vajra Sect’s request for you is not just innate."
"No matter what the final result is, Vajra Sect hopes that you will set your goal, at least as the Grandmaster!"
Those young people under 20 years old can already be called geniuses when they can enter the top 100 in the Vajra Sect competition. This is how most masters of Vajra Sect walk out.
In order to prevent these people from being proud, Master Shenji said again:
"Although you are a genius disciple among the younger generation, not everyone has the possibility of a master."
"The age of Junshan Huiwu has been limited to twenty years old. Do you know why?"
Perhaps because of Master Shenji's kind attitude, others have also let go one after another. Li Zhixian said:
"When I go back to my master, I heard from my master that before the age of twenty, my body is still growing. At this time, the meridians are opened, and even if the damage is caused, it can be completely repaired as the body grows."
"But after the age of twenty, once the meridians are damaged, even if you take pills, you may leave damage."
"So before the age of twenty, the more meridians you open, the deeper the tempering, the greater the potential in the future."
"Once one is over twenty years old, one's potential will basically be determined!"
Her meridians are narrow and her talent for cultivating true qi is not strong. But because she is still young, after the competition last year, she took three small pills of Xiaohuan Dan in succession, forcibly tempering her meridians to become wider-
It can be said that Li Zhixian today not only has achieved acquired perfection in skills, but also has the potential to practice, but also can be called a genius!
Shen Ji nodded when he heard this, praised Li Zhixian for a few words, but then changed the topic and continued:
"You can practice to this level under the age of twenty, which means that your qualifications should be considered good."
"But the expectation of the Vajra Sect for you is not just potential. How strong your future strength depends on how quickly your potential can be realized, and when will you be promoted to a natural master!"
As he said that, he said to everyone again:
"There is a rule in this sect that disciples who have achieved the perfection of acquired nature before the age of thirty can automatically get the opportunity to enter the relic tower when worshiping ancestors at the end of the year."
"Do you know why this rule is determined?"
A perfect master who is a acquired master before the age of 30 can automatically get the opportunity to worship his ancestors at the end of the year. This is a rule that most disciples of the Vajra Sect know. But the reason is not known to everyone.
Everyone was concentrating their minds seriously, and only heard Shen Ji say:
"I wonder if you have heard of it. There is a saying in the Go world: If you don't become a national player at the age of 20, you will have no hope for the rest of your life!"
"Similarly, there is a saying circulating in the world: If you don't become a congenital at the age of thirty, you will have no hope of a master!"
"Although this sentence may be a bit inaccurate, it is occasionally broken by some powerful people who are late to become powerful."
"But since it can be circulated, it means there is something good."
"There is a big mystery in it!"
At this time, Han Sheng was also attracted by his attention. After hearing the words and thinking about them for a while, he said to Shenji:
"Is it about the cultivation of the early stages of innateness, or the integration of essence and energy?"
Shen Ji nodded after hearing this and praised:
"Yes, it means that the essence and energy are united!"
"The so-called unity of essence and energy refers to the process of unity of essence, essence and true energy in the human body."
"The doctor says: Born first by the body, it is called innate; Born later by the body, it is called after heaven. The innate qi is in the kidney, which is given by parents; the acquired qi is in the spleen, which is transformed by water and valleys."
"In the mother's body, the essence and vital energy are pure, which can be called innate essence. However, after birth, eating grains and cereals will naturally be dirty by acquired things and transformed into acquired essence."
"In the practice of martial arts, the first stage of cultivation is called refining essence into qi in Taoism. In fact, it is the process of refining the essence and qi in the body into true qi."
"Because most people have acquired essence in their bodies, this stage is also called acquired essence!"
It tells the origin of "innate" and "acquired", Master Shenji said again:
"According to Taoism, after refining essence into qi, it is refining qi into spirit."
"But after the warrior enters the innate world, it does not mean that the cultivation of refining essence into qi has been completely completed. What they still need to do is to convert the acquired essence in their bodies into innate essence."
"The Ren and Du meridians are connected to build a bridge of heaven and earth, which will form a small circulation of heaven in the warrior's body. This cycle can make people absorb the vital energy between heaven and earth and use it to cultivate true energy. It can also return the essence in the human body to its original origin and refine it to an extremely pure."
"This pure essence is the same as the essence in the mother body when the human body was not born. Therefore, it is also called the innate essence."
"Only the true qi refined from this kind of essence and energy can be called innate true qi. Only after all the essence and energy in the body are refined into innate essence and converted into innate true qi can we complete the cultivation of refining essence and qi-"
"At this time, the initial stage of innate cultivation can be considered basically completed. It can be called the integration of essence and energy, and the innate achievement is small!"
After talking so much in one go, many young disciples have a little understanding of the so-called innate nature. However, some people are still confused about these things and ask Shen Ji:
"What does this combination of essence and energy have to do with the age of thirty?"
"Could it be that after the age of thirty, it will be difficult for the human body to integrate its essence and energy?"
Seeing many disciples but still not fully understood, Shen Ji explained:
"Man's birth, old age, sickness and death are like the cycle of reincarnation in Jiazi."
"The first half of this cycle of reincarnation, that is, the first thirty years, is in the ascending period. The essence and energy in the human body are also improving."
"But the last thirty years are in the period of decline. The essence in the human body is always declining."
"If you cannot enter the innate realm before the age of thirty, then when the essence and energy are united, you need to collect more vitality and replenish the declining essence and energy."
"This kind of innate master not only becomes much more difficult to practice in the early stages of innate cultivation. The innate true energy cultivated also loses its vigorous and upward spirit. It is difficult to be as brave and diligent as a master who entered the innate before the age of thirty."
"It can be said that unless you have obtained a great opportunity, you can enter the innate master after you are thirty, and you will have basically no chance of completing the innate realm. Not to mention innate perfection, becoming a master."
"It is precisely because of this that the preferential treatment of our disciples is set at the age of thirty."
