The highest administrative body of Haiya City is the main palace of Haiya City, which includes Haiya Chamber of Commerce, Haiya Bank and other important Haiya system institutions. Their headquarters are also located inside Haiya City. However, as a place of cultivation and inquiry, the mountain gate of Haiya Sect is
But it is not located in Haiya City, but on a large granite island about thirty miles east of Haiya Port.
This is the famous Haiya Island.
This island is like a rock protruding from the depths of the sea, with steep black cliffs on all sides. The word "sea cliff" is derived from the topography of this island.
Haiya Island is far away from all the main waterways of Haiya Port. It has high winds and waves all year round and is covered with dense reefs. Normally, no ocean-going merchant ships will come close to it. It is indeed a rare place for repair in the Haiya area. Two of the three giants of the Haiya Island are
Jiang Hua'an, the leader of the Haiya Sect, and Han Xinhe, the law enforcement elder, have been practicing in seclusion on this island all year round.
Yang Lu is now regarded as a prominent figure in Haiya City, but he has never been to Haiya Island. Even Jiang Hua'an and Han Xinhe, the two big guys of the Haiya family, he has only met once or twice. This is not because
The two big guys didn't want to see him, but they were usually practicing in seclusion and had no time to receive guests.
Yang Lu met Su Yuanfeng relatively often, mainly because Su Yuanfeng had been trying his best to train the family's junior Su Cheng in the past two years, so he deliberately stayed in the Foundation Establishment Dzogchen without advancing.
It is much more difficult to break through the threshold of the golden elixir stage than the middle stage of Qi refining. If the breakthrough fails, the cultivator's cultivation will even regress back to the ninth level of foundation building. The reason why Su Yuanfeng has not tried to break through is because the time required for the breakthrough is not long.
The certainty is too great. If you are unlucky, this retreat may not last for seven or eight years, which will inevitably delay many important things.
In fact, being in seclusion for seven or eight years is quite good. Some monks in the Nascent Soul Stage of the Transcendental School have been in seclusion for hundreds of years.
According to the cultivation experience accumulated by cultivators for countless years, when the time of continuous retreat and chanting sutras becomes longer, the cultivators will obtain a certain degree of cultivation speed bonus. Although this cultivation speed bonus is very small and even almost imperceptible, if
Over time, over time, this bonus will become very considerable.
Yang Lu has also tried to speed up his cultivation through continuous retreat. However, his "Infinite Heart Sutra - From Beginner to Mastery" seems to be different from the mentality of ordinary cultivators, and he cannot enjoy the speed of cultivation brought by retreat.
Bonus, at least according to the quantification panel in his dream, his cultivation speed did not increase with the extension of the retreat time.
This discovery once made him suspect that "continuous retreat to increase the speed of cultivation" was actually a pseudo-cultivation concept.
However, whether it was Xu Yannan, Li Qingning, or even the writings of Yuan Ying, the leader of the Wuliang Sword Sect, they all swore to tell him that continuous retreat could indeed increase the speed of cultivation, so Yang Lu could only attribute this difference to his own skills
It was written by Lu Yang, an ascended immortal and a veteran of time travel, and it is not the same system as ordinary cultivators.
But in any case, the rule that the longer you retreat, the faster your cultivation speed will be. It does encourage cultivators to retreat. Therefore, it is not very uncommon for high-level monks from the world to retreat for N years consecutively. Even according to the world records of the cultivation world
According to records, there was once a very tough Yuan Ying senior in history who stayed in seclusion for three hundred years before breaking out.
This is simply the cultivation version of the king of papers and the question maker!
Things are so unpredictable that even a hundred years is enough for the people on earth to evolve from using flintlocks as their main weapons to dropping atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and from not being able to build airplanes to landing on the moon.
It is said that during the third Lingshi Financial Crisis, an ancestor of the Golden Core Stage who had been in seclusion for decades broke out, only to find that all the wealth (Lingshi Vouchers) he held back then had been turned into waste paper.
Many people started to use Lingshi coins for transactions.
As a result, the ancestor could not bear this kind of stimulation and cursed "Luyang dog thief" three times before dying.
Except for such outrageous extreme cases, such as those who have been in seclusion for decades, only to find that the chamber of commerce under their name has already gone bankrupt due to poor management, it is definitely not a rare situation, so many cultivation masters will specifically give instructions before going into seclusion.
Juniors, when necessary, can interrupt their retreat.
However, the practice speed gain effect brought by the retreat will also fade quickly as the duration of the retreat is interrupted. If the retreat is interrupted for more than three days, the gain effect will basically disappear completely, so unless you encounter special
It's a big deal, otherwise no one would casually interrupt the big man's retreat. This would definitely be very offensive.
It’s fine for secular monks who don’t rely much on retreat.
If a monk from the Transcendental Sect is casually interrupted in retreat, he will definitely find someone to settle the score with.
It is precisely because most cultivators are addicted to seclusion that the rule of the Wuliang Sword Party in Zhongzhou seems so loose.
Although the monks in the Nascent Soul stage are very strong, they can neither massacre low-level cultivators casually, otherwise they will go crazy and die, nor can they keep an eye on the sect in person at any time. They must spend most of their time in retreat, so they want to rule deeply.
It is impossible to reach the grassroots level of society, and only very extensive management methods can be used to rule.
Although the Wuliang Sword Sect now has six Nascent Soul-stage great monks, the only ones who are not practicing in seclusion are Lin Jianxing, Cheng Shuying, and Mo Yunlan. Unless they don’t want to advance further in their cultivation, it will be a matter of time before they re-enter the state of seclusion.
matter.
According to Lu Lu News, Cheng Shuying, who has completely lost his leadership in the reform of Zhongzhou’s social security system, has already spread rumors that he will start to retreat. Although Lin Jianxing has not made an official announcement, he has not practiced in retreat for seven or eight consecutive years in order to manage the sect. When Zhongzhou Social Security
After the pilot system reform begins, there is a high probability that he will also enter a state of seclusion.
As the saying goes, county officials are not as good as current officials.
When the leader of one's own faction enters seclusion, it will definitely cause a major blow to one's own faction.
Not to mention the Wuliang Sword Sect, if Su Yuanfeng fails to break through the golden elixir bottleneck this time, and it drags on for four to five years, the negative impact it will have on the Su family in Haiya City cannot be underestimated.
Han Xinhe, the boss of the Han family in Haiya City, has already entered a state of seclusion after returning from the Infinite Sword Sect. If Su Yuanfeng also enters a state of seclusion, this will undoubtedly not be a good thing for the Qingning Chamber of Commerce, an ally of the Su and Han families.
But this kind of thing is not something Yang Lu can influence.
As Su Cheng's plan to join the Wuliang Sword Sect went bankrupt, Su Yuanfeng, who had no worries anymore, decisively announced a retreat to attack the bottleneck of the Golden Core Stage.
Relying on Su Yuanfeng's wealth and ability, if nothing unexpected happens, there will soon be a second golden elixir stage monk in the Haiya system. However, the specific breakthrough time will depend on how many times Su Yuanfeng needs to try to break through before he can succeed.
As the head of the Haiya Sect and the Lord of Haiya City, Jiang Hua'an naturally needs to practice in seclusion, otherwise he would not be able to reach the second level of the Golden elixir with the qualification of a middle-grade spiritual root. As for the place where he retreats, it is located at the headquarters of the Haiya Sect.
A hidden cave.
For Jindan monks like Jiang Hua'an, the retreat period is calculated in years. Therefore, before retreating, he had deliberately requested that if nothing major happened, his retreat would not be disturbed.
The only people in the entire Haiya Sect who are qualified to knock on the door and interrupt his retreat are the few close disciples he named in advance, and at most the top sect members like Su Yuanfeng and Han Xinhe. If anyone else dares to disturb his practice at will, they will definitely be punished.
He was severely punished by the Haiya Sect's sect rules.
