"To cultivate the Dao, one must seek a method. The Dao has no door and cannot be entered. It is very difficult. The Dao is the most mysterious. Do not take the elixir lightly. If you do not meet a wise man to pass on the secret, your words will be in vain and your mouth will become dry and your tongue will become dry."

"Search for a technique in the law, and then return to the original path."

“The flourishing of magic can easily seduce people, but it is ultimately just a minor path. Only the fundamental path is the path to self-cultivation and enlightenment.”

"The 72 Transformations are hard to come by, but how much energy do people have in their lifetime? How many of them can you master?"

"It is better to master one thing than to be knowledgeable but not specialized. The drop of Qilin blood I gave you has great potential. You have studied the Qilin aspect alone. Why would you covet other things?"

"What's more, most of the other living creatures in the world have ordinary bloodlines. How can they compare to the Qilin?"

"I'll take your advice!" Hu Bayi accepted it humbly.

Fengdu Daojun calmed his voice and continued, "Let's get back to the topic. In Taoism, there is more than one explanation for gills."

His words attracted Hu Bayi's attention, and he immediately said respectfully, "Please speak!"

"In Taoism, because the human throat has twelve sections, we use the twelve-story tower to represent the trachea. The trachea is connected to the lungs, and the twelve-story tower blows air from the lungs, providing qi for the body's operation and providing the heat for the burning of the life fire."

Fengdu Daojun pointed to his chest to demonstrate to Hu Bayi and said, "Above the high tower is the mouth and nose, where you inhale and take in the wind. But here, there is also a gill, which is like a pump, controlling the increase and decrease of the breath between the mouth and nose."

"The cheeks push the air from the mouth and nose to the Chonglou, and from the Chonglou to the lungs. It is like the hand-pulled blower next to the earthen stove in the past, and it is also the source of control over the temperature of the fire."

"So, in Taoism, the gills represent the degree of heat, and are also the core of Taoist alchemy practice."

"Sun Wukong is a monkey in the mind, without cheeks, but you are a human, you have cheeks, so you must not only practice the unity of body and mind, but also pay attention to the relationship between the temperature of your own movement and the harmony of yin and yang between heaven and earth."

"The human body has a small circulation, while the heaven and earth have a large circulation. This is both the purpose of Fenghou Qimen and the method of its practice. Fenghou Qimen can actually be said to be an inner door alchemy method."

"It's just that this alchemy method is profound. The heaven and earth are the furnace, and nature is the craftsman; yin and yang are the charcoal, and all things are copper. The human body is a furnace that divides the heavens into circles. We need to refine an innate holy spirit in the heart, which is the ancestral vein of the ten continents, the source of the three islands, and the place of physics, chemistry, clarity and turbidity."

"This holy spirit can be the original form of the monkey in the heart, or it can be any other form. There is no limit to the shape. Everything depends on your wishes. However, my suggestion is to take the form of a unicorn, and then use the innate to lead the circulation of the heavens."

"The human body is nourished by heaven and earth, and the great circulation regulates the small circulation. Therefore, you must control the transformation of the yin and yang in your body according to the rise and fall of the yin and yang in the heaven and earth, so as to harmonize the relationship between you and heaven and earth."

The Taoist Master of Fengdu pointed to the sky above his head, then pointed to the ground below, and explained in detail to Hu Bayi.

After hearing this, Hu Bayi sat cross-legged on the blanket. He lowered his head and pondered for a while, then raised his head and asked, "So what you mean is that the true practice of Fenghou Qimen is not just about mastering oneself, but also requires me to practice my own small Zhoutian and the 'Zhonggong Qilin Inner Pill' according to the heat of the big Zhoutian, just like refining an elixir?"

"clever!"

Fengdu Daojun gave a thumbs up. Hu Bayi was indeed quite perceptive. He nodded and said, "The mind is prone to change. Although it is in line with the ever-changing image of Fenghou Qimen, the human body is pure and the human heart is peaceful."

"The mind is naturally active. If you don't use the Zhoutian Qigong to exercise and restrain it, you won't be able to be peaceful. If you can't be peaceful, what else is there to practice?"

"But Qilin is different. It is good at suppressing things. It has the virtue of earth. Earth covers fire and slowly emerges, forming a volcano. It will be more convenient for you to practice in the future."

"Thank you for your advice!"

Hu Bayi also understood the painstaking efforts of Fengdu Taoist Lord. He bowed respectfully to him, thanking him for his teachings and gift of blood.

Fengdu Daojun smiled and waved his hand, "Nothing, I just practiced for a little longer, and my knowledge is a little broader. He is willing to listen to my clichés, but he is not confused by the prosperity of Fenghou Qimen."

Hu Bayi raised his head and said firmly, "Arts are born from Tao, and should be used for Tao."

"Disciple will accept the instruction!"

Fengdu Daojun smiled and said, "I hope you can always remember your goal and what I said today." "Go ahead. The other three must have chosen their inheritance. When you need anything, use this order to open the door to the underworld and come to see us."

The Taoist Master of Fengdu waved his sleeves, and a cold iron order was stuffed into Hu Bayi's hand. Then he was pushed backwards by a force. The affairs of the underworld seemed like a dream.

When he opened his eyes again, Hu Bayi looked at his surroundings and found himself in the Fishbone Temple, with Shirley Yang, Wang Kaixuan and Da Jin Ya standing beside him.

He looked at the underworld token in his hand, felt the Qilin blood in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Fatty, Lao Jin, Miss Yang!"

"Hey, time to wake up!"

Hu Bayi woke them up and began to ask them what skills they had obtained.

Among them, Fatty Wang got the improved Six-Storage Immortal Thief, Shirley Yang got the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements, and Big Gold Teeth only got a set of Earth-Walking Immortal skills.

However, the three of them did not receive the guidance of the two Taoists like himself.

"Old Hu, what are our plans from now on? Are we really going to fight that demon, Po Xun?"

Hu Bayi sighed, "Too many debts won't weigh you down, too many lice won't bite you. We caused the trouble, and we've taken all the benefits. Can we just let this go?"

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

"Forget it, don't think about it anymore. Next, let's find a way to get rid of the curse of the ghost cave. Is the Dragon Bone Book still there?"

"Yes, it's in my backpack, it's safe!"

Fatty Wang patted his back and assured.

"Then go back first and make plans later!"

underground space.

The benevolent and holy Taoist looked surprised: "You actually gave Hu Bayi a drop of Hell Kirin's blood. What bad idea do you have?"

Fengdu Daojun said with a smile: "Free labor, use them for a while. How about letting them do some work after the Ghost Blows Out the Light world ends?"

"you mean……?"

"That Qilin tattoo is perfect for making an article!" Fengdu Taoist gave the other person a look that showed you know what I mean.

"In that case, this is interesting!"

"I said I had a black heart, but it turns out you are the same!" Rensheng Daojun said with a smile.

"Must-know. By the way, shall we participate in the upcoming events in Yunnan Worm Valley?" Fengdu Daojun suddenly asked.

The benevolent and holy Taoist shook his head and said, "I suddenly have an idea. How about borrowing someone from the Heavenly Court of the Small Primordial Realm of this deity?"

"Who?"

"Heavenly Plague Department, Chen Duo!" (End of this chapter)
