In the following days, the two began to copy the secret books. The two were very fast. It only took five days to copy down all the contents of the twelve secret books. They then checked twice to confirm that they were correct.
Only then can you relax completely.
"That's good now. We don't need to go to the Sutra-Tiding Pavilion anymore." Ma Xiaoyao smiled happily.
"No! We still have to go to the Sutra Pavilion." Xiong Datou shook his head seriously.
"Uh? You still want to go?" Ma Xiaoyao was stunned: "What are you going to do?"
"The secret books in our hands are only for the innate realm. After we enter the Huang-level realm, we will have to go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to rent the secret books for the Huang-level realm." Xiong Datou said.
"Damn!" Ma Xiaoyao rolled his eyes: "You are thinking long-term."
"That's right." Xiong Datou said with a smile: "The ancients said: If you don't think long-term, you will have immediate worries! So, you must look at things with a long-term perspective."
"Okay, hurry up and practice." Ma Xiaoyao pouted: "I tell you, I will soon break through the bottleneck and enter the second-level innate realm."
"So fast? You are simply a monster!" A trace of surprise flashed in Xiong Datou's eyes: "Your bones are obviously very poor, why do you practice so fast? It's not in line with common sense? Brother Ma, tell me the truth.
Did you take some magic pill?"
"Have you finished speaking? If you finish speaking, leave immediately. I have to practice and I don't have time to listen to your chatter here."
"Hey, no, listen to me... Hey, hey, what are you doing? Don't push me, I haven't finished speaking yet."
"Go quickly, don't disturb my practice."
"Bang!"
Ma Xiaoyao closed the door, locked it, and then let out a soft breath: "Finally, we sent this annoying spirit away." He sorted out the secret books he had copied, and then began to practice internal skills and mental techniques.
…
Winter turns to spring, and then it’s summer again before you know it.
Counting the days, more than three months have passed.
For more than three months, Ma Xiaoyao has been practicing almost without sleep or food, and he looks a lot thinner. However, the gains are huge, Ma Xiaoyao has reached the third level of innate cultivation.
He has improved two levels in three months. This kind of cultivation speed is already very fast. If Gu Tianhai and others knew about it, I don't know how surprised they would be.
Of course, this is all due to the mysterious beads. Without the help of the mysterious beads, Ma Xiaoyao would not have been able to practice so fast.
After this period of contact, Ma Xiaoyao has regarded the mysterious bead as his lifeblood. From now on, whoever dares to pursue the idea of the mysterious bead will risk his life!
Compared with Ma Xiaoyao, Xiong Datou is far behind. After more than three months, Xiong Datou has almost stood still and has not made much progress.
"I'm just wondering, my bones are obviously better than yours, why is my cultivation speed slower than yours? And it's so much slower?" Xiong Datou's face was full of depression and unwillingness: "Brother Ma, tell me
, What is the problem?" Xiong Datou has been thinking about this question, but he has never come up with an answer. In the end, he was so depressed that he had no choice but to ask Ma Xiaoyao for help.
Ma Xiaoyao smiled slightly: "I work harder than you."
"What a fool." Xiong Datou snorted: "I work very hard every day. Except for eating and sleeping, I spend all my time practicing."
"How many meals do you eat a day?" Ma Xiaoyao asked casually.
"Of course three meals."
"I only eat one meal a day."
"What?"
"How many hours do you sleep every day?"
"Four hours?"
"I only sleep two hours a day."
"ah?"
"Now do you know what the problem is?" Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile: "I have spent more time practicing than you, and the results I have achieved must be better than you."
"But your bones are worse than mine." Xiong Datou said with wide eyes.
Ma Xiaoyao chirped: "I'm inferior, but I work harder than you. The more I put in, the more I get in return. This is normal."
"No, what you said is wrong..."
"What's wrong? Brother Xiong, it's obvious that you didn't work hard, but you put the problem on me. It's unethical of you to do this."
"you……"
"What are you doing? If you have time to chat here, you might as well go back to practice."
"I……"
"Okay, stop talking and go back to practice. As long as you work harder, you will definitely be able to catch up with me." Ma Xiaoyao stretched out his hand and patted Xiong Datou on the shoulder: "I'll give you a word: As long as your skills are deep, you can use an iron rod."
It can be ground into a needle! If you work harder, your cultivation speed will go up."
"Brother Ma..." Xiong Datou wanted to say something else, but Ma Xiaoyao didn't give him a chance to speak.
"That's it, I still have to practice, and I really can't spare the time to entertain you. When I get some free time, I'll have a good chat with you." Ma Xiaoyao pushed and pushed Xiong Datou out, and before closing the door,
Ma Xiaoyao said again: "Brother Xiong, don't bother me if you don't have anything particularly important in the future. I'm really busy now." After saying this, he closed the door with a bang and went up.
Lock.
Xiong Datou stood outside the door, opening his mouth to say something, but the words immediately turned into a helpless sigh: "Alas... This Ma Xiaoyao is really a ghost. Trying to get something out of him is just a waste."
It’s as difficult as ascending to heaven, forget it, instead of wasting time here, it’s better to go back and intensify your practice.”
On the way back, Xiong Datou pondered in his mind: Could it be that he really doesn’t work as hard as Ma Xiaoyao? He only eats one meal a day? Isn’t he hungry? He only sleeps for two hours a day? Isn’t he sleepy? Damn it! Is this Ma Xiaoyao?
Is it made of iron?
After thinking about it and learning from it, Xiong Datou finally decided to eat one meal a day and sleep for two hours every day. He didn't believe he couldn't catch up with Ma Xiaoyao! But after only two days, he couldn't hold on anymore. He was hungry and sleepy every day and couldn't do it.
Practice with peace of mind!
"Ma Xiaoyao, I'm convinced! You are so damn tough!" Xiong Datou smiled bitterly and shook his head.
…
Ma Xiaoyao knew nothing about what Xiong Datou did. He just found a random reason to deal with Xiong Datou. He didn't expect that Xiong Datou would take it seriously?
Ma Xiaoyao is also made of flesh and blood. He also needs to eat and sleep to replenish his energy. Three meals a day are a must, and occasionally he will have a midnight snack. As for sleeping...at least three hours a day, and occasionally four hours, mainly
Adjust according to your own situation. For example, if you are very tired today, sleep more. If you are relaxed today, sleep less.
If Xiong Datou knew that Ma Xiaoyao was lying to him, he would definitely go crazy.
Cultivation is a very boring thing, and you cannot persevere without a certain amount of perseverance. If you want to cultivate immortality, you must be able to endure loneliness. If you cannot endure even the most basic loneliness, you will not achieve very high achievements.
Like those famous people who have been in seclusion for several years or decades. Isn't it boring and lonely for them? Of course not. They are also human beings and have selfish desires. Of course they will be boring and lonely, but they can endure it.
Stay, be able to hold on, this is great perseverance.
Roots and perseverance are two essential elements on the road to immortality. Strictly speaking, perseverance is more important than roots. There are many talented people who are unwilling to work hard to practice because of their weak perseverance, which ultimately leads to failure.
Night time.
Ma Xiaoyao sat cross-legged on the bed, frowning, looking in a bad mood.
"By the way...Is this the case?" Ma Xiaoyao's eyes lit up: "Hurry up and try it!" He stretched out a finger and shook it gently a few times, then he saw a trace of red light appear on the fingertip.
, this red light slowly rose and finally turned into a wisp of flame.
"Success!"
“It really worked!”
"It took me a long time, but I got into a misunderstanding!"
Looking at the flames on his fingertips, Ma Xiaoyao was ecstatic: "After thinking about it for half a month, I finally got the result. Well, let's try the power." Ma Xiaoyao flicked his finger, and the flame flew away from his finger towards the table opposite.
passed.
In the blink of an eye, the flames fell on the table, and the table was set alight without any sound. This was a table made of mahogany, and it was coated with a layer of paraffin, which was not only fireproof but also mothproof.
Such a sturdy table was easily ignited, and the fire became more and more intense.
Ma Xiaoyao smiled: "The power is not small." As he spoke, he flicked his fingers three times in succession, and then he saw three streams of water falling from the sky, directly extinguishing the flames on the table.
This is a spell that Ma Xiaoyao learned a few days ago. It's called "water control." He gathers the water-attribute energy in his body to his fingertips, and then forces it out to form a water flow.
"Yes, yes, I am really a genius." Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "It only took less than a month to master several martial arts. It is really powerful." Speaking of this, Ma Xiaoyao smiled: "
Am I, Lao Wang, selling melons and boasting about myself? Haha..."
"Brother Ma, are you in there?" A big bear's shout suddenly came from outside.
"Well, I'm here." Ma Xiaoyao jumped out of bed, walked over and opened the door: "Brother Xiong, why are you free to come here today?"
"I'm feeling unhappy, so I came to chat with you." As he spoke, Xiong Datou walked into the room, then put the two jars of wine he was carrying on the table: "Come, have a few drinks with me."
Ma Xiaoyao walked over and looked at Xiong Datou with a puzzled expression: "Why are you so sad? Did you encounter something difficult?"
"You're right, I did encounter a difficult situation." Xiong Datou opened the seal of the wine jar, lifted it up and took a swig: "And it's a difficult matter that makes me very distressed."
"What on earth is going on? Tell me and see if I can help you solve it." Ma Xiaoyao asked with concern.
Xiong Datou raised his head and glanced at Ma Xiaoyao: "I tell you it's okay, but you must not laugh at me."
"How could it be? Don't worry, I will never laugh at you." Ma Xiaoyao was very curious, what on earth made Xiong Datou so gloomy? In Ma Xiaoyao's impression, Xiong Datou was a careless person.
Logically speaking, a person with no lungs should not be troubled by anything with his character?
