As for the use of "Round Ball" and the Yin clan, it seems that Zhang Yan has found a simple and direct way for the time being. It also provides him with massive benefits.
But Zhang Yan soon discovered that only he could enjoy this kind of benefit without any scruples. It would be difficult to distribute it to his disciples, for example.
The difficult part is not the absorption of liquid spiritual energy.
Although the three apprentices have not yet entered the Dao Dan realm, the cyclone in the Dantian can already accommodate a certain amount of liquid spiritual energy. Although it is very small, it is indeed possible. It is for this reason that Zhang Yan asked all three of them to try it.
Each of them absorbed a drop of liquid spiritual energy.
The results are good, but at the same time very bad.
The key point still lies in the two words "enlightenment".
Spiritual energy is easy to absorb, and you can take shortcuts, but the matter of enlightenment is related to your own Tao, and you cannot cheat others. It is impossible for Zhang Yan to rely on the world to actively help him "cheat" and directly engrave the Tao in his consciousness and cognition.
Among them, even the process of "enlightenment" is omitted. When using it, you can just sort it out and become familiar with it.
Although the three apprentices are getting older, they each have their own way of understanding "Tao", which is very different from Zhang Yan, who is quite law-abiding. Zhang Yan can only help to see if there is anything wrong in the direction.
He didn't dare to interfere too much because he didn't understand the disciples' ways.
Moreover, going from the Xuanmai Realm to the Dao Dan Realm is a very important threshold. It is even the beginning of true practice. And the understanding of "Tao" at this beginning is much higher than all the previous realms of practice. Many
Monks with average talent are blocked by this barrier, and they have no choice but to be blocked out and unable to make any progress throughout their lives.
So when Wang Nian was pushed directly to the late stage of the Mysterious Vein Realm, he got stuck. Liu Xin and Yang Rui were in a similar situation, both stuck in the middle stage of the Mysterious Vein Realm.
It’s not that you don’t have enough spiritual energy to break through, it’s that you can’t meet the understanding of “Tao” required to break through to the next realm. This is only the Mysterious Veins realm, and logically speaking, it’s a realm that doesn’t require so high a level of “enlightenment.”
The three children were also a little annoyed by the drop of liquid spiritual energy sent by Zhang Yan. What was annoying was not the liquid spiritual energy itself, but that they did not have the corresponding understanding of the Tao. If they could "enlighten the Tao" faster, then
Can their cultivation level continue to rise?
This mentality is actually not good. If it cannot be solved, it will leave hidden dangers.
However, Zhang Yan was not in a hurry about this. If he had not been mentally prepared and had the means to deal with these situations, he would not have given the liquid spiritual energy to his three apprentices.
Early that morning, Zhang Yan summoned Wang Nian and the others to Dengyun Hall.
"You have been anxious and restless these past few days. This is not the way to practice. You must know that practice is to cultivate the mind to a large extent. How do you want to realize the Tao when your mood is unstable? What kind of Tao do you want to learn? Those who warn against going too far.
You have all read the summary of Taoism many times, don’t you still understand these principles?”
"My disciple knows that he is wrong. But because of his limited realm, he is very impatient. He knows that he shouldn't, but he can't restrain himself. Master, please punish me."
None of the three children is stupid. Even if they don't know it, their classmates will notice it. If they confirm each other, they will naturally know that their recent mentality is not right.
There is also a feeling of resentment. After all, if the master hadn't given them that magical liquid spiritual energy, they wouldn't need to be stopped by "Enlightenment" now.
Of course, there is no such thing as complaining. But it is inevitable to blame oneself for having a shallow understanding. After all, in their view, since the master gave them liquid spiritual energy, it was to give them a hand and to support them. Unfortunately, they failed the master.
A good intention.
Now, in turn, they have become anxious and irritable. This has made the mistakes worse, so that the three children are worried and ready to accept punishment.
"Punishment?" Zhang Yan shook his head.
"There are thousands of paths to enlightenment, and you know your own path best. I am just reminding you that it is no good to be impatient and eager for quick success, especially in the matter of enlightenment, which is accompanied by great risks.
However, each of you has now reached a bottleneck. To break through, you must have new understanding. But understanding comes from the changes and principles of heaven and earth. Although you can understand the great way by watching the clouds day and night, but it is too difficult and profound after all.
It is impractical for you and cannot solve your current troubles.
So staying in the mountains is no longer suitable for you.
Go out for a walk. Go to various countries of the human race. There is nowhere in the world that you can’t go to. Even the realm of the demon race is not impossible for you as long as you are brave enough. After experiencing some things, you should have a deeper understanding of this world. When the time comes, you can give back to me.
You will also gain in your ways.”
The three children immediately raised their heads, and each of them opened their eyes wide and looked at the smiling Master sitting on the chair above.
Without waiting for the three children to speak, Zhang Yan continued: "Although you three are still young, you have wisdom and brains that are not inferior to adults. You are even smarter than most people in some aspects. Plus you
All the magic means and magical weapons can be obtained anywhere in the world unless you are in desperate situation.
However, if the three of you are together and supporting each other, many experiences will be skipped, and there will be fewer things that are interesting and helpful for you to understand your own way.
As I just said, your own way requires your own pursuit and exploration."
Zhang Yan said this, which means that he is not discussing with the three disciples but informing them. It is not advisable to work behind closed doors, and the disciples are not like him who can cheat without limit. Enlightenment and enlightenment always require ""
It’s all about “enlightenment”. It’s not easy to come up with something when you stay in the mountains all day long. What’s more, the three children are at the age of “entering the world”. Without “entering the world”, there’s no such thing as “residing from the world” or “escaping from the world”.
Wang Nian was so happy that he almost jumped through the roof. After returning to Lingxiu Building from Dengyun Palace, he started to pack his luggage. All the things he thought were useful were stuffed into the storage prepared by Master for the three of them.
In my backpack, I spread out a map and excitedly laid it out on it to choose where I wanted to go.
Although Liu Xin is not as anxious as Wang Nian, she is still very happy. She also hopes to go out for a walk alone. She has never had the experience of "going wherever she wants and doing whatever she wants" before. Even in the cliff mountain
She also followed the rules. This time she was ready to listen to herself. But when it was her turn to make a decision, she was a little confused... Where should she go?
Only Yang Rui was a little panicked. It wasn't that he didn't want to go down the mountain, but he knew that if he went down like this, he would probably be taken back to the palace, and he didn't want to go back. So he thought about running away in advance?
