Vol 3 Chapter 164: Authenticity

Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Four
This choice suddenly placed in front of him caused Shen Shi to be in a dilemma while he was shocked. Before that, he had never thought that the Yin Yang curse would conflict with the formal cultivation methods taught by Ling Xiaozong, at least in the past few years of cultivation, these two methods have always been peaceful. To be precise, for so many years, he has been practicing his own practice twice as long as his peers. For ordinary people to inhale spirits into the body once a day, he has to practice twice, once to satisfy the spiritual aperture. The need for the Purification Mantra is another time the need for Dantian in the belly.
Over the years, he has indeed occasionally thought that if he does not have these two different methods in his body, then with his secretly diligent and uninterrupted practice, in fact, the spiritual power he has obtained should be at least better than the current one. The primary level of the Ning Yuan Realm reached must be twice as high. :::: Novel 3, but this idea is of course not possible, so he did not think more about it, and when he became fascinated by the five-element spell in the future, he discovered the spiritual power in the spirit orifice Including the secret assistance of Yin and Yang curse, he obtained a very powerful combat power, and he never thought about such a thing again.
However, at this moment, in the depths of the dark demon clan's underground palace, Huang Ming suddenly laid out this cold fact before him, making him have to make a choice.
There are two ways, one must be chosen. Not choosing may be the third way, but that is a dead end.
Shen Shi was silent for a while, and after a long while, he said with some difficulty: "Senior, is there no other way?"
Huang Ming said indifferently: "No, you can choose one of the two, you can pick it yourself."
Shen Shi was silent for a long time again, then raised his head and looked at Huang Ming's back. After gritting his teeth, he said in a deep voice: "If this is the case, I will choose to abolish the Lingqiao and keep the Dantian."
※※※
"Ok?"
Huang Ming turned around, raised his eyebrows, looked at Shen Shi, the expression on his face seemed a little unexpected, and said, "Keep the dantian? If I read it right, the two places on your body seem to be here. On the contrary, his spiritual power is more abundant, and spiritual power is purer and tougher?"
Shen Shi was silent for a moment, nodded, and said: "Yes, if the juniors fight against people now, they actually use the most powerful five-element spells that are triggered by Yin and Yang curses."
Huang Ming looked at him with interest, and said: "This is surprising. If so, why did you choose to keep your dantian? You know if you give up your dantian and gather all of your spiritual energy to the eyebrows and soul orifices, then you The Dao and deeds on the Yin-Yang Mantra will definitely go further, and the power of the various spells will be stronger. If... I will pass on the other chapters of your Yin-Yang Mantra to complete this secret method, and you may be more successful in the future. But why did you choose Dantian?"
Shen Shi's face changed, and he was obviously struggling, but in the end, he smiled bitterly, looked at Huang Ming, and said, "Senior, I understand in my heart what you said, but those things require me to cultivate and accumulate for years and months, but …If I can really get out of this underground palace this time, the world is so big, and the eyes of many elders in the sect are like torches. It is impossible not to notice the abnormal condition in my body. At that time, I would be the same as without Dantian. I'm a useless person, I'm afraid I can't stay in the Lingxiaozong anymore; what's more, if the secret of my spirit orifice is also discovered by others, then I'm afraid that I can't avoid the hat of cultivating the evil spirits at will. , I’m afraid it will get worse then.

"So, I think it's better to keep the dantian. Senior, you said before, destroying the spirit orifice. I can also gather other spiritual powers within my dantian, and the Taoism will increase a lot by then. On the contrary, in the future, maybe My life in the sect is probably better than it is now." Shen Shi looked at Huang Ming with a sincere expression on his face, and said these words honestly.
Huang Ming stared at him, suddenly waved his sleeves, frowned and said: "Men's husband, only self-cultivation is the foundation. Why should you care about others' opinions?"
Shen Shi took two steps, looked at the quaint and huge palaces around it, and looked at this man who was supposed to be a man in the world ten thousand years ago. He solemnly said: "Senior, my disciple can understand it. I think back then, you and Yuan Master Wentian and others are all peerless figures who personally destroyed the Heavenly Demon King's Court. They have their own style, and their disciples are not far behind. But the current world is actually very different from yours in the past, and everything is naturally unconstrained in the troubled times. But now that the human race has unified the Hongmeng for thousands of years, everything in the realm of cultivation has long been determined. The path of abandoning the dantian to practice the Yin-Yang curse may be as you said, and there will be a better future. But I forgive my disciples. It's nowhere now."
"Yin and Yang curse, after all, is the secret magic of the monster race. A monk who does not have a dantian but possesses powerful and magical powers will inevitably attract a lot of concerns, not to mention that the disciple is one of the direct disciples under the four sects. I cannot escape this kind of attention. Yes, once a little clue leaks out, the path of the juniors will die immediately, and with the current attitude of the human race towards the demon race, if the disciple chooses this path, it is almost equivalent to standing on the opposite side of the monks of all races."
Shen Shi shook his head, and his face slowly calmed down. Obviously, for him, he had made up his mind on the choice of this issue after all, and did not intend to waver any more, saying:
"I can't walk this way."
Huang Ming snorted, and said, "You always have a weak heart."
Shen Shi smiled, bowed his head and said nothing. Perhaps the two people have their own opinions on this kind of thing, and it is really impossible to unite.
It's just that although Shen Shi's choice made Huang Ming a little unhappy, but perhaps because of the time he got along, his impression of Shen Shi's younger generation was generally good, and there was no intimidation or coercion. After pondering for a moment, he waved his hand and said, "Fall, it's just your own choice anyway, I don't have much to say."
As he said, his eyes flickered, and after standing there thinking a little, he suddenly lost something. Shen Shi reached out to catch it and took a closer look, only to find that it was the old book he had given Huang Ming before. Several mantras of Yin Yang Mantra. However, at this time, the volume of the book seems to be a little different from before. After a slight movement in Shen Shi's heart, he felt that he was aware of something, and his heartbeat suddenly became a little faster. In addition to the curse, large sections of text have already emerged on the blank pages at the back of this volume.
"I have solved the restrictions in this book for you, including the secret method of abandoning the spirit orifice or dantian, and summarizing the whole body's spiritual power into one. I also remembered it at the end of this book." Huang Ming said indifferently.
"Now that your Taoism is not high, you still have time, after you go out, you can think about it for yourself. If you really make a decision, then you can practice that method yourself."
Shen Shi gritted his teeth, his face full of gratitude, and solemnly bowed to Huang Ming. At the same time, he was suddenly taken aback, showing a bit of joy on his face, and said softly:
"Senior, you mean...I can leave here, have you gone out?"
Huang Ming snorted, as if he was just about to say something. Suddenly from his side, in the golden coffin that had been silent for a long time, a piercing grin suddenly sounded, and then came a sound with a bit of viciousness. Words:
"False...boy, don't you believe what he said?"
