"I didn't think I would reach the realm of night roaming so quickly. The Taoist scriptures say that for cultivators to reach the realm of night roaming, they need to cultivate for at least a year to calm their mind before they can barely reach it. How did I reach it so quickly?"
Hong Yi's spirit left his body and floated outside. He felt very comfortable.
It was as comfortable as playing in the water on a hot day.
His feet were a foot or two off the ground as he floated forward. He felt weightless, but he didn't have the solid feeling of walking with his body.
Doors and walls couldn't stop him. With a thought, he passed through.
The divine soul was a formless and intangible thought. How could doors and walls stop it?
"Some books have the saying of traveling a thousand miles in one night. It was said that a Daoist suddenly sat still when facing someone. After a day, he woke up and told the person what happened a thousand miles away. He said that he used a day to get his spirit out of his body and traveled a thousand miles before returning. The person didn't believe him. But a month later, there was news from a thousand miles away. It was exactly the same as what the Daoist said. I wonder if I have the ability to travel a thousand miles with my spirit? Let's see how fast my spirit drifts. "
This was the first time his spirit traveled at night. Hong Yi felt it was very novel.
With a single thought, his soul suddenly flew up, and the speed at which it floated also increased.
"Why is it so hard?"
As soon as his spirit flew up and increased its speed, Hong Yi had a feeling that he couldn't breathe. At the same time, his body felt cold as if it was going to be blown away by the wind.
He quickly stopped his thoughts.
"I just flew as high as a person and drifted like a normal person running. Why is it so uncomfortable? Not to mention traveling a thousand miles in one day, it's not much different from walking. Obviously, my spirit isn't strong enough. But the cultivation method in the Amitabha Scripture is really dangerous. Visualizing the power of the stars in the brain, creating illusions and holding on to them. If I can't hold on, my spirit will be destroyed. It's really … The Daoist scripture also recorded the White Bone Temple, Asura Temple, Jade Lady Temple, Ascension Temple, and so on. But I seem to have experienced all of these! No wonder this Amitabha Scripture is the source of all sect techniques. "
Hong Yi had read the Daoist scripture, and there were many visualization methods to strengthen the soul recorded in it.
For example, the White Bone Vision: Visualize yourself rotting, covered in maggots and flies, and exposing your white bones to dispel your fear.
For example, Jade Maiden Visualization: Visualize yourself hugging a jade maiden. The jade maiden makes all sorts of seductive movements, but you don't move. This will train your heart to be as cold as ice.
For example, Asura View: Visualize yourself in the midst of hundreds of ghosts and tens of thousands of demons, without the slightest fear. It was also terrifying.
For example, the Ascension Visualization: Visualize that there is a great force in the sky that guides the soul to ascend. Resist the thought of ascension, and also eliminate the delusion.
Hong Yi seemed to have experienced all of these visualizations when he was cultivating the Amitabha Sutra. In other words, the cultivation of the Amitabha Sutra encompassed a myriad of techniques in a split second.
"Brother, I heard that Hong Yi was suddenly summoned by his father a few days ago? He even asked the accountant to give him a hundred taels of silver so that he could prepare for the Imperial Examinations in the spring. Was there some hidden meaning behind this? Father is starting to value Hong Yi? This kid's father never pays attention to him. "
Hong Yi floated out of the corner of the manor and wandered towards the south.
At this time, it was already late at night. Other than the servants who were patrolling with lanterns and keeping watch, everyone else in the manor had fallen asleep.
However, Hong Yi suddenly heard a sound.
The sound came from a large courtyard with tall red walls. From the courtyard came the sound of fists and feet, as well as a conversation.
In the conversation, he was actually mentioned.
The south courtyard of the manor was called Lanting Study. It was the residence of the third wife, Lady Rong.
In the manor, there were three wives. The first wife, Lady Zhao, lived in the middle of the manor. The first wife had two sons.
The second wife, Lady Fang, lived in the east side of the manor, Yunting Study. She had a daughter, Hong Xuejiao.
The third wife, Lady Rong, lived in the south courtyard, Lanting Study. She had one son.
The rest of the concubines lived in the west side. They did not occupy an area like the three wives.
The servants, guards, housekeepers, accountants, and maids were all gathered in the north corner.
Hong Yi passed through the wall and saw two men sparring with their fists and legs. One was brandishing a hardwood Eyebrow Staff, while the other seemed to be using his fists and legs to practice. Both of them were dressed in silk and satin attire, and they looked like they were full of vigor.
The two of them fought back and forth, and after a few rounds, they stopped and began to talk.
Hong Yi recognized these two people. The one holding the stick was Hong Gui, the son of the third branch's Madame Rong, and the one bare-handed blocking the stick was Madame Rong's relative, Rong Pan.
Hong Yi had seen these two people when he was studying together in the Hong Family's clan school.
"Young Master Gui, you don't need to be angry with people like that."
Rong Pan said fawningly as the two talked.
"Hmph, it wasn't easy for this young master to see father. Instead, I was punished by the family and had to lie in bed for half a year." Hong Gui's eyes were filled with resentment. "This Hong Yi met father once and was rewarded. He even gave him a hundred taels of silver from the accountant. He's just a son of a lowly family. What right does he have to become a county official? There's nothing wrong with that. "Hong Gui said hatefully.
Rong Pan laughed. "Young Master Gui, you don't need to be angry. I heard that Marquis doesn't allow him to practice martial arts. In the Da Qian dynasty, scholars can only be officials. In the future, when Young Master Gui practices martial arts, you can go to the military's martial arts lecture hall to further your studies. With Marquis's prestige and connections in the army, you will at least be a commander. After a few battles, won't you become a Marquis? So what if this Hong Yi passes the exams and becomes an official? Who knows, if he makes the Emperor unhappy, he will be executed and exiled. Although the Da Qian dynasty respects scholars in name, we won't be lenient when it comes to killing people and confiscating their homes. "
"Although that's what you say, I'm still suppressing the anger in my heart." Hong Gui stabbed the rod into the ground.
"Cousin, what are you afraid of? He's just the son of a dead concubine. I've seen him in the academy before. He indeed pretended to be knowledgeable. If cousin doesn't like it, when the academy reopens, I'll find an opportunity to beat him up. "
"Indeed, the gods are watching. Mechanical conspiracies will definitely be known by the gods. Hmph … "
When Hong Yi heard this, he laughed coldly in his heart. He didn't expect that after meeting Marquis Wu Wen, he would be secretly envied.
However, Hong Yi understood that this Hong Gui had once gotten drunk and was coincidentally called over by Wu Wenhou. As a result, he had been beaten by the family law.
Hearing that there was a conspiracy, Hong Yi was secretly on guard and his soul floated out.
His soul floated towards the East Courtyard.
Just as he arrived at the East Courtyard's "Yunting House", Hong Yi heard a crisp bang. It sounded like something had exploded and smashed a porcelain vase. Following that, the sound of shattering could be heard one after another. No one knew what was happening inside.
Hong Yi let his soul float in again and saw Hong Xuejiao standing in the middle of the courtyard, practicing martial arts.
The surroundings were silent, only the gentle starlight shone down.
Hong Xuejiao's figure shuttled left and right. Every punch and every movement made such a sound. It sounded like the wind from the punch had exploded, and also like the bones in her body had been shaken.
There was a book on the ground. On it, there were many human movements and words, as well as annotations.
Hong Yi was curious and wanted to open the cover to see what book was inside. However, his soul had left his body, so he couldn't open the book.
At this moment, Hong Xuejiao's body swept past, bringing with it a strong gust of wind. Flipping the book over, Hong Yi saw the words "Tiger Demon Bone Training Fist"!
