Chapter 12 Animism

Dugu Xiao walked out of the teaching building with two books and found his dormitory in the direction pointed by Li Qingshui.

It was not the two-story small buildings I saw earlier, but the small houses built on the exterior wall of the Martial Arts Court, which were more simple and inconspicuous than the canteen. Because of the obstruction of trees, Dugu Xiao did not even find this place on the mountain at that time.

It was very quiet and there was no sound. When Dugu Xiao approached, he found that there were only five doors here, four of which were locked, and only the door on the left was covered in a false sense. It should be his room.

When I opened the door, it was very clean and the space was very large. There was a bed with neat bedding on it. There was a table and three chairs at the window of the room. There was a lock on the table and a key in the lock core. There was nothing else.

"Yohe, it's still a single room." Dugu Xiao smiled with surprise, threw the two books that Li Qingshui handed to him onto the table, locked the door with the lock, and walked out.

I don’t know how long it took to fight with a group of wolves in the mountains and forests. Dugu Xiao was already so hungry that he was touching his back. Now that the matter has come to an end, he immediately went out to find food.

Dugu Xiao walked towards the canteen he had discovered earlier. When he passed by the teaching building, he suddenly saw Yun Yue and Yang Sicheng standing there, "Aren't these two waiting for me?" Thinking of it, Dugu Xiao walked over.

There are many students on the road, some of whom have entered school early, their bodies have developed and they are not short. They walk together in groups of three or five. When they see Dugu Xiao, they all show a strange light.

Maybe because the injury on his leg was not healed, he looked a little strange when he walked, so Dugu Xiao didn't care and went straight to the two of them.

Yunyue was very focused and kept staring at the door of the teaching building. She did not find Dugu Xiao walking behind. Instead, the bored Yang Sicheng looked around and found Dugu Xiao.

"Hey, when did you come out?" Yang Sicheng shouted at Dugu Xiao.

Yang Sicheng's voice woke Yun Yue up, looked back, and saw Dugu Xiao, and hurried to come here.

"Are you waiting for me?" Dugu Xiao asked.

After coming to Dugu Xiao's side, Yun Duo kept staring at Dugu Xiao without saying anything. Yang Sicheng said, "Of course, I was talked to by the tutor before class started. What did she say to you?"

"Let's go to have a meal first, and say it while eating." Dugu Xiao ignored Yang Sicheng's words, glanced at the two of them and said, then turned around and walked in front.

"Are you so hungry? You can come out without changing your clothes?" Yun Yue glanced at Dugu Xiao and asked faintly.

"Uh..." Dugu Xiao looked at his body and found that his whole body was torn apart. The part under the long clothes had been torn apart, leaving a very irregular mark. The back was intact, but it looked like a strange feeling. Because the left leg was bandaged, the pants on the calf were also torn apart, revealing his thighs and his back was cold. Needless to think about it, the clothes there were also torn apart.

Dugu Xiao's outfit looks worse than a beggar. He didn't pay much attention to it before and got used to it, so he forgot about it. No wonder everyone looked at him with strange eyes when he saw him, and now he finally knows what's going on.

"Hey, Yunyue, you bandaged me the wound, and it was my clothes torn?" Dugu Xiao asked gritted his teeth, trying his best to control his emotions.

"Otherwise, would you tear your clothes if you saved someone?" Yun Yue asked back.

Dugu Xiao was panting like a cow, his eyes were terrifying, and he tried to resist his attacks.

In this life, I was very far away from my parents and basically had no feelings for me. However, when my father was killed and my mother committed suicide, Dugu Xiao opened the jade bracelet left for him and found that it was filled with clothes she made for him, including hundreds of them since childhood. At that time, they were rarely at home, and Dugu Xiao’s clothes were made by others. I vaguely remember that my mother once gave him a few pieces of clothes, but after wearing them for a few days, she stopped wearing them.

Everyone has a dream of ancient costumes. Dugu Xiao is naturally addicted to being a human being. According to what he watched on TV and thought about himself, most of the clothes he designed by Dugu Xiao himself and was not interested in what his mother gave him.

But the sudden change in family situation made Dugu Xiao calm down and he also saw his mother's love for him in the jade bracelet. She usually followed her father to fight on the battlefield, so she had no time to make clothes for herself. However, the hundreds of clothes in the jade bracelet, every needle and thread, was her hard work, and she took time to do it for herself from her busy schedule.

Since then, Dugu Xiao has never bought clothes again, and no longer studied clothes by himself. Wearing the clothes his mother made for him with peace of mind can be regarded as a kind of remembrance to his parents who died early.

Dugu Xiao kept comforting himself. Those who don’t know don’t blame him. Yunyue didn’t know anything. She just wanted to save herself. She was not wrong. She couldn’t blame her, but she still couldn’t hold back her anger.

"What's wrong with you? Your expression is so strange?" Yun Yue said in confusion.

"It's okay" Dugu Xiao gritted his teeth and growled.

Yun Yue looked at Dugu Xiao in surprise and didn't say anything.

Because of Dugu Xiao’s strangeness, the three of them rarely talked, so they bought some food casually and sat together. Yang Sicheng couldn’t help but ask, “What’s the matter with that mentor looking for you?”

"It's nothing. She said I was injured and asked me to take a good rest and go to class when the injury healed." Dugu Xiao said casually.

"I didn't expect your mentor to be quite considerate." Yun Yue said, obviously, she didn't think it was that simple.

"I didn't understand it, I just always feel something is wrong." Dugu Xiao shook his head irritably, and he really couldn't think of Li Qingshui's intention.

"Okay, I'll finish eating, let's go first." After saying that, Dugu Xiao left alone. He was just a bodyguard. When he came here, he just wanted to learn some methods of cultivation while taking care of Yang Sicheng. Unexpectedly, he was directly targeted by the academy.

Although the college should not harm itself, it would be a bit tiring if it focuses on cultivating itself or suppressing itself because it started early and had great strength. Isn’t it great to treat yourself as an ordinary student, not pay attention to it or ignore it?

After returning to the dormitory, Dugu Xiao did not rush to change his clothes, but stared at the two books on the table. He didn't know what the instructor meant. She might as well say that she could heal herself. She involved the martial arts and gave herself the two books again. What is the deep meaning?

Everyone has a vigilant heart, especially Dugu Xiao, who is in a completely unfamiliar environment and a strange world, every word that others say has to make Dugu Xiao think deeply.

This Canghai Martial Arts Academy is not simple. The two strongest people have appeared, which solved the turmoil of the beast tribe. There must be its uniqueness. Moreover, when the martial arts Academy is established within the country, there are still people who are willing to come here to seek far and wide. I think they are also curious about it.

Is the difficult and dangerous entrance exam because of the secret hidden in Canghai Martial Arts Academy or is it a mystery?

Yun Yue said that the Canghai Martial Arts Academy could exist because of the Three Kingdoms' respect for those two. In fact, if you think about it carefully, they should be afraid of the two who suddenly disappeared and the powerful beast tribe who disappeared together, for fear of causing trouble.

Dugu Xiao thought a lot and had no idea about it, so he took two books and began to read the contents above.

One of these two books is a bit old, which should be the classics she mentioned, while the other is very new, with the beautiful fonts on it, which should be the insight she wrote herself.

There is nothing special about this, it only records some matters of human cultivation. Dugu Xiao took a rough look and generally understood it.

At this time, the sky was dark, and the few luminous stones inlaid on the wall shone with faint light. Dugu Xiao touched the jade bracelet on his wrist through his sleeves, and was puzzled. Could this jade bracelet actually be a life with intelligence and contains huge spiritual power?

According to the book, all things have spirits, and every thing in the world can be regarded as a spirit body. Some spirits have strong spirituality and are living things, while those with weaker spirits are dead things.

There is no essential difference between living things and dead things. They are both carriers of spirits. They are only eroded by the mortal energy in this world and cannot be revealed. Cultivation is a process of awakening the spirit and completely transforming itself into a spirit. In other words, many flowers and grass, even soil and stones, once awaken this "spirit", they are likely to be no different from humans.

The major realms of cultivation are: the realm of mortality, the realm of spiritual transformation, the realm of spirit control, the realm of spiritual sea, the realm of spirit breaking, the realm of life and death, the realm of transcendence, and the final realm of divineness.

Each state has three stages: one stage, two stages and three stages.

The golden period of cultivation is from thirteen to fifteen years old, which varies from person to person. In modern terms, it is the period when the body develops rapidly in adolescence.

Because it is too small, forcibly removing the mortal energy may cause indelible damage to the body and even death; if it is too large, it will be completely combined with the mortal energy due to the complete development of the body and cannot be separated.

From this point of view, the difference between living things and dead things is revealed. Living things need to be practiced in the corresponding time period; on the other hand, dead things only need to exist continuously and accumulate them with time.

There are two ways to practice: one is the exercises, and the other is to use spiritual objects.

The exercises can awaken the spirit from the inside of the body, turn them into spiritual power, and erase the mortal energy; while those without the exercises can use some spiritual medicines, flowers and plants, etc., which have initially awakened the "spirit" external objects, and take or cleanse the body to awaken the spirit in the body.

The so-called three levels of power of broken wood, broken stone, and broken rock are just a division of the level of spiritual power awakening by humans. Every time a little bit of mortal energy is removed, the body will undergo some changes, awakening the original power of the spirit, and reaching the strength of the rock breaking rock, it means that the mortal energy has been removed and reached the top of the realm of mortal energy. If there is no skill, you have to learn how to use the existing spiritual power in your body to continue practicing. Then use external objects to no longer have much effect.

Perhaps because of the rare skill, the book does not divide the skill level into the skill, but only records the Tao. Some secret skills can evolve their own magical powers in the later stages of practicing some secret skill.

Dugu Xiao never remembered what skills he had practiced. The reason for his strength was that the jade bracelet left to him by his mother. In those days, light flashed in the jade bracelet, causing him to have a split headache and his strength also increased.

Moreover, it has been two years since my strength reached the point of breaking the rock. No changes have occurred again. My head has never hurt, and my strength has no longer increased. No matter how I look at it, it looks like the second way of cultivation.

But the book also says that this way of cultivation is very slow and needs to be done little by little. If one is not good, it will die because the body cannot withstand the baptism of external spiritual power.

"Either, you are too strong, or I am strange, hey, can you speak?" Dugu Xiao said carefully to the jade bracelet on his wrist.

But as always, except for the first time, the faint light on the jade bracelet never illuminated again.

Dugu Xiao threw the book on the table again, took out the wine, leaned against the bed and started drinking.

It seems that the things recorded in the book are not perfect, because the book says that after having the strength to break the rock, it has reached the top of the Transcendence Realm. If you want to practice in the future, you can only rely on the spiritual power you already have in your body. But for so long, except for the change of your strength, you have not changed at all, and you don’t feel that there is any spiritual power in your body.

However, Dugu Xiao vaguely remembered that there was a story about the Overlord holding a cauldron and Lu Zhishen pulling up the weeping willows in ancient China. In this way, these two people are definitely not weak. Although Dugu Xiao has never tried it, I think the strength of these two people should be not weaker than that of themselves and even stronger.

Could it be that this way of cultivation still existed in ancient China, but later it was lost for some reason?

Dugu Xiao was drinking wine, and his heart couldn't calm down for a long time.
