After Ling Yu had obtained the opportunity to practice martial arts, he had put all his heart and soul into it. Now that he had such an opportunity, how could he not desperately grab it? From then on, Ling Yu had decided to take control of his life and not be teased by fate.
After Ling Yu roughly looked through the Aeons Meditation Technique once, he began to cultivate for the first time.
"Everything in the world has its ups and downs. Flowers have their ups and downs, and trees have their withers and withers. There is a constant impermanence, two trees wither and flourish, north, south, west, east, not fake, not empty! Withered and withered trees show the world, neither withered nor glorious, neither fake nor empty."
As he circulated the cultivation technique, he refined the essence in his body and turned it into two internal forces, one green and one gray. The green internal force was naturally the Wood Spirit Qi that contained powerful vitality. However, the grey true energy was the complete opposite. Not only did it not have a strong vitality, but it also gave Ling Yu a strong sense of desolation and death.
Every time Ling Yu used the Art of Life and Death, his internal strength would circulate once in his body, and it would involuntarily transform into a gray deathly aura that continued to circulate in his body. After one round, it turned into green wood spiritual energy again, and so on.
And the two types of spiritual energy that were originally completely opposite, magically got along well in Ling Yu's body, and even had the wonderful effect of promoting each other.
This was also the essence of the Aeons Zen Technique. Life and death, withering and flourishing contained endless mysteries.
Just like that, Ling Yu immersed himself in cultivation. Ling Yu was not an ordinary child, but he could endure loneliness. In addition, Ling Yu's soul was far stronger than ordinary people.
Therefore, in just two short years, he had raised his cultivation to the realm of a middle-stage second-rate martial artist. This was the result of Ling Yu repeatedly training his foundation and spending most of his time practicing martial arts.
Just like that, the ten-year-old Ling Yu's cultivation had already surpassed many adults.
In the martial arts field, Ling Yu had just finished exchanging blows with a guard of the Imperial Palace. When he stood up, he had already surpassed the guard captain who was at the late-stage of the second-rate realm.
Duan Zhengming, who was watching from the side, clapped his hands and said with a smile," Yu 'er is indeed a genius. He already has such cultivation at such a young age. I believe that he will be able to surpass me in a few years.”
Ling Yu said," Uncle, you flatter me. I'm still far from it. There's one more thing I want to ask of you. I've already reached a bottleneck in my cultivation. I plan to go to the Heavenly Dragon Temple. After all, the Art of Life and Death was comprehended from the Buddhist scriptures. I plan to go and ask for advice."”
Duan Zhengming said," I didn't expect that we were thinking of the same thing. Even if you didn't say it today, I would have already considered this matter. No one in the Dali Imperial Family cultivates this cultivation technique, so no one can help you. However, the Heavenly Dragon Temple is different. As the holy land of my Duan clan, there are countless experts in it. I believe that they will be of great help to you.”
Lingyu said," Thank you for thinking about me, Uncle. I've troubled Uncle to take care of Lingyu all these years."”
Duan Zhengming said," Why are you being so polite with your uncle? Your parents aren't around. As your uncle, if I don't take care of you, who will? I don't have any children, but I've already treated you as my own son.”
Ling Yu replied," In Ling Yu's heart, uncle is also a father-like existence.”
Duan Zhengming said," There's no need to stand on ceremony between us. Rest early today. Since there's nothing to do in the court tomorrow, I can bring you to the Heavenly Dragon Temple."”
Tianlong Temple was located in the north of Yuefeng in Diancang Mountain outside Dali City. The official name of the temple was Chongsheng Temple, but the people of Dali were used to calling it Tianlong Temple.
The ancestors of the Duan family, who were emperors, often abdicated their positions and became monks in this Tian Long Temple. Therefore, Tian Long Temple was the home temple of the Dali royal family and was the most prestigious temple in the country. Every time an emperor became a monk, his descendants would go to the temple to worship on his birthday. Every time they worshipped, they would offer sacrifices and decorate the temple. The temple has three pavilions, seven floors, nine halls and a hundred buildings.
Duan Zhengming and Ling Yu had arrived early in the morning at the Heavenly Dragon Temple outside Dali City. This Heavenly Dragon Temple was originally the family temple of the Dali Imperial Family, but it was not open to the public.
This Heavenly Dragon Temple was a place that Duan Zhengming frequented, so he immediately went to pay his respects to the abbot, Great Master Benyin.
Originally, because the master was the uncle of Emperor Baoding according to the seniority of the secular family, the monks did not adhere to the etiquette of monarch and minister, nor did they talk about family members. The two met with equal etiquette.
Duan Zhengming said," Senior Brother Benyin, I'm here this time because of Ling Yu's cultivation problem. I want Ling Yu to cultivate in the temple for a period of time.”
" Is this child Princess Duan Ling's son?" Did something go wrong during cultivation?”
" No," Duan Zhengming said." Although this child is Ling 'er's son, he doesn't meet the requirements to cultivate the Duan Clan's Yi Yang Finger. However, this child chose to cultivate the Aeons Zen Mantra on his own. As a result, I can't guide him. That's why I came to ask Senior Brother for help.”
Benyin was also surprised." I didn't expect this child to choose this martial art. In terms of the degree of exquisiteness, it surpasses my Dali's Yi Yang Finger. However, the difficulty of cultivating it far exceeds that of the Yi Yang Finger.”
Duan Zhengming said," It's precisely because of this that I came here. I hope that this child can comprehend something from the Buddhist scriptures.”
Abbot Ben Yin said," I can see that Yu 'er has already cultivated to the second-rate realm alone. It can be seen that his talent is extraordinary. It just so happens that Martial Uncle Ku Rong has been comprehending the Withering Zen Technique for decades. Seeing such a good talent and jade, he will definitely guide him with all his heart."”
Duan Zhengming was delighted when Ben Yin finished speaking. Elder Ku Rong was the most senior in Heavenly Dragon Temple and had been facing the wall for decades. None of the monks in Heavenly Dragon Temple had seen his true face.
Duan Zhengming had only heard of his name and had never met him before. He had always heard that he was meditating alone in the Double-Tree Courtyard. He had not heard anyone mention him for more than ten years, only that he had passed away long ago.
Duan Zhengming said," It's really Yu 'er's fortune to have Elder Ku Rong's guidance. I'll thank you in advance.”
