Since he couldn't calm down, Qin Di went back to reading books!
He studied the wood elemental cultivation technique, the Azure Dragon Incantation, from start to finish. Although the things at the back, like the Nascent Soul and Void Step cultivation techniques were too profound and he still could not understand them, but he had a rough idea of how the wood elemental cultivation technique would develop in the future.
He knew that the five elements had their own characteristics. In short, wood was straight, fire was hot, soil was steady, metal was smooth, and water was moist.
What was the meaning of "Wood is bent straight"?
It meant that it could bend and stretch, be soft and hard, and have a strong vitality and self-regulation ability.
Think about the spring willow branches, how soft they are; think about the wooden beams, how hard they are! Think about the endless green grass in the wilderness, where the wildfire can't burn it, and the spring wind blows it again. What a strong vitality! Then think about the roses that have been growing for many years in front of your house. Cut a branch and put it on the ground, and soon there will be a bunch of beautiful flowers again. What a strong adaptability!
Therefore, the wood element cultivation method needed to learn the strength and tenacity of spiritual plants. It needed to learn the spirit of the wildfire that can't burn it, and the spring wind blows it again. Cultivating the wood element cultivation method was learning and imitating at the beginning. After learning it, it would become a magical power, showing all kinds of miracles.
The Green Dragon Incantation was such a cultivation method. The characteristics of dragons were the same as plants, they could bend and stretch, be soft and hard. Therefore, dragons lived in the east. The east belonged to the wood element, and its color was green. It was spring.
Because of these characteristics of dragons, when the immortals created the wood element cultivation method, they named it "Green Dragon Incantation". It not only referred to the high-level "Green Dragon Image", but also the general name of the core wood element cultivation method.
Before this, the Green Dragon Incantation that Qin Di practiced was only a few simple moves. It had the form but not the spirit.
The real core cultivation method could only be practiced after he reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
At the moment, he was still in the Qi Training stage, but he could already learn the first magical power of the Green Dragon Incantation, which was "Spring Comes to Withered Wood".
"Spring Comes to Withered Wood" was the manifestation of the strong vitality of the wood element cultivation method.
After mastering it, not only could it make the withered wood in the outside world sprout again, it could also heal the cultivator's injuries quickly. Even broken limbs could be regrown, and there was no need to take any miraculous pills. It wasn't just physical injuries. Even if his Divine Sense was damaged, he could slowly recover.
Reading up to this point, Qin Di thought to himself, "Since 'Spring on a Withered Tree' can restore the vitality of a practitioner and maintain his youthful vigor, it should also be able to adjust one's mood and cure my hot-headedness and bloated body problem."
"Then let's give it a try. It's a wood-type core cultivation technique anyway. I'll have to cultivate it sooner or later."
Therefore, he threw everything aside and began to practice the "Spring Returns to Withered Wood".
The technique of "Spring on a Withered Tree" was very peculiar. First, it talked about wither, then it talked about glory, first it asked for death, then it asked for life.
There was a poem at the beginning: "A withered tree beside a cliff by a stream, from the past to the past. There is a Boulder of Water, there is no leaf to receive the mist. The moss of the second month is its color, the snow of the third winter is its flower. Without the arrival of the Star Emissary, who would recognize the spirit chariot? "
Ling cha (pronounced cha) means spirit boat, immortal boat. Celestial envoys referred to immortal envoys. It was a metaphor for achieving great success in cultivation.
There was also a detailed description of the technique: "Calm the mind and focus, restrain the breath, visualize the withering and flourishing …"
Qin Di sat cross-legged in the bamboo house and calmed his heart. Following the instructions of the technique, he quickly fell into a state of wither.
He sat there for a whole ten months!
The first month, his face was red and his lips were chapped.
The second month, his face was haggard and his skin started to age.
The third month, he was old and his face was full of wrinkles.
The fourth month, his muscles started to wither and his skin was as rough as tree bark, tightly wrapping around his bony body.
The fifth month, he had completely turned into a mummy.
The sixth month, the last bit of dried meat on the mummy was gone! All that was left were the ghastly white bones with a round skull on top. It looked extremely horrifying!
The seventh month, a layer of green moss appeared on the bones, as if there was some vitality.
The eighth month, runes appeared on the white bones like snowflakes, covering every joint.
The ninth month, no one knew when it started, but the runes started to glow and the green moss started to grow crazily, covering each other and growing bigger and bigger. Gradually, it grew into chunks of muscles and a layer of green skin on the outside.
At this time, Qin Di's entire body was green. He looked like a green gourd or chayote melon, verdant and juicy, full of vitality.
The tenth month, his sunken eye sockets became full again. The green skin gradually turned white and soft, as delicate as a newborn baby. Finally, he opened his eyes and completely came back to life.
"Ahem, I, Qin Di, am back!"
He turned his head to look outside the window. The sun was so bright and beautiful. A gentle and perfect smile appeared on his face, and he softly whistled, "Who woke up first from a big dream? I only know in my life. Spring sleep in the bamboo house, the sun outside the window is late!"
Although it was called a big dream, to him, the past days were really like a dream. He felt like he had turned into a tree, from luxuriant branches to withered and died. He experienced endless silence and lost himself in it for who knows how long. Finally, he relied on the mantra "Spring Returns to Withered Wood" to sprout and find himself again.
At this point, his heart completely calmed down. After experiencing ten months of sitting in solitude, he experienced the samsara of life and death. Even the frivolous and fluttering heart would calm down.
After waking up, Qin Di didn't know what day it was. He called a part-time disciple over and asked. Only then did he know that ten months had passed. In other words, this was the summer of the eighth year since he entered the Golden Pill Sect.
Time really passed quickly!
Time was like an arrow, and another year had passed in the blink of an eye!
Hearing that ten months had passed, Qin Di's heart thumped. "Why is it so long? This is only the opening chapter of the Azure Dragon Secret Art, and it took me so long! With this method, when can I build my foundation? "
He originally wanted to build his foundation within ten years, and then he could go home and take a look. Because when he came, the old man said that he would only be allowed to go back after he built his foundation. Therefore, he had been speeding up his cultivation. But this time, in order to cultivate "Spring Returns to Withered Wood", he actually spent ten months, which far exceeded his expectations.
But on second thought, "Fortunately, I successfully practiced this cultivation method. My vitality has increased too much! Now, not to mention chopping off one of my arms, I won't die even if my heart is pierced! If someone really wants to harm me, they will have to cut me into eight pieces and throw each piece several dozen feet away so that they can't reunite. Only then will I die with hatred in the underworld. "
Since he had already come out of seclusion, he had to pay a visit to his masters and see what they had to say.
At this time, he already had three masters. In addition to the two in the Golden Pill Sect, there was still one hiding in the Heavenly Passage.
