This secret method is a pure mental method. It has only one effect, which is to strip away people's emotions and become calmer and calmer.
After the cultivation is completed, a person will become devoid of any feelings or emotions. Except for consciousness, he will be like a cold stone.
Why do you say that you can survive the catastrophe?
Because the most terrifying part of the Heavenly Tribulation is the Heart Tribulation. The Heart Tribulation is to magnify every knot or ups and downs experienced in the past a hundred times and test the monks. Anyone who fails to pass will be doomed.
For example, if a monk is afraid of snakes, he may be trapped in a cave of ten thousand snakes during the calamity. If he trembles with fear and is swallowed by ten thousand snakes, he will naturally be doomed.
Many times, just a very small knot in your heart, depression, or discomfort can be exaggerated into a Shura field during the heavenly tribulation, making you unable to move up and down, extremely uncomfortable, and if you don't pay attention, you will die in it.
Therefore, in order to survive the heavenly tribulation, the state of mind must be perfect, without any flaws. Only by defeating yourself can you survive the terrible mental tribulation and successfully ascend.
As for the external calamity, it depends on whether the skill is deep. As long as the foundation is solid and the training is proper, there will be no big problem in surviving it.
The reason why the secret method can increase the pass rate of the natural disaster to more than 70% is very simple.
Heart tribulation is nothing more than the experience of feelings and emotions. If there are no feelings and emotions, what kind of tribulation would there be?
It's like a dead stone, without even a heart, so what's the use of the heart calamity?
Of course it's useless.
Therefore, after practicing the secret method, there is nothing left except consciousness. The inner calamity will be expanded not to mention a hundred times, but even if it is expanded ten thousand times, it will not have any impact on the monk himself. It is of course easy to survive.
The reason why it is said to be 70%, not 100%, is because after the secret method strips away the feelings and emotions, it will cause a bug, that is, the practitioner will no longer have the thought of resisting the heavenly tribulation. Others who undergo the heavenly tribulation will certainly experience the inner tribulation.
, but feelings and emotions will also turn into courage, giving cultivators the perseverance and courage to resist the catastrophe. There are even many examples of people who almost died in the catastrophe, but in the end relied on great courage and succeeded in overcoming the catastrophe.
After the secret method, one no longer has the heart to calamity, but even the heart energy is gone, and it doesn't even matter whether one is dead or alive. Facing such a big calamity as the heavenly calamity, it is of course easy to be hacked to death.
Therefore, the success rate of the secret method is only more than 70%, not 100%. Of course, more than 70% is enough. Basically, as long as the external calamity is resisted, the internal calamity is just a formality.
But if that's the case, then what's the point of even if a monk transcends calamity and ascends?
What is the purpose of becoming an immortal?
The power is secondary. The key is the possibility of obtaining eternal life. Even if you cannot live forever, you will at least have an extremely long life.
Another reason is the great freedom and freedom.
When you become an immortal, you are free from restraints. You can do whatever you want. There are no worries or pressure from heavenly calamities. You can do everything as you please. How can you not be envied by others?
But if you become an immortal and become a piece of wood without any feelings or emotions, then what’s the point of becoming an immortal?
After practicing the secret method, it doesn't even matter whether you live or die, let alone practice, and you won't be able to appreciate the great freedom and freedom that comes with it.
So even if you are alive, what is the difference between you and the walking dead?
Therefore, Emperor Xuanqing was right. This secret method was useless to him. It cannot be said that it was meaningless, but even if it was meaningful, it was very little.
