Chapter 102: Developing Group Attack Skills Just about to talk to Wei Mubai...

Just as she was about to tell Wei Mubai that she wanted to go and experience life on her own, he slapped her on the head and said, "You don't understand what I mean."

Wei Mubai sighed, "I'm not saying you're bad. On the contrary, your clear view of the world, seeing things in black and white, shows you've distinguished between reality and ideals. Some people spend their entire lives in a state of chaos, constantly striving but never finding their true path. Even if they truly reach the Mahayana stage, they can't transcend the tribulation and ascend to heaven, and they can't overcome the tribulation of self-examination."

"You're different. From the very beginning, you've been observing the world from an outsider's perspective, forming your own unique understanding. There's no right or wrong perspective, Xu Hui!" Wei Mubai stared into her eyes and said seriously, "This world is complex. Buddhists engage in worldly affairs, Taoists pursue tranquility and inaction, the demons engage in bloodshed and conflict, the monsters are innocent and cruel... they're all part of the world chain."

"What they see and experience is the Tao they know. There is no right or wrong; it only depends on whether they understand it."

"And you, as a bystander, have seen a portion of the world's truth. This is the Tao in your eyes. Whether you are in the world or not, it is the Tao in your heart. The Tao has no right or wrong, no high or low. It lies within your heart. Just follow your heart."

Xu Hui was stunned. She seemed to understand, but also seemed to be caught in a bigger mystery.

Wei Mubai’s words were easy to understand. The Tao was hers, and she could go however she wanted. She didn’t have to rely on others, nor did she have to be like others.

What is the essence of the world? Perhaps it's that existence is reasonable. It's reasonable to abandon desires, and it's also reasonable to amplify desires. There's no such thing as either-or; it all comes down to personal choice.

Since they have all become immortals, the rules and regulations that bind most people in the mortal world no longer apply.

The rules that maintain order are not what monks should follow, but they will only follow them if their Tao approves of them.

Those who deviate from the rules may not be unrighteous, but they are contrary to the majority of people. They will be wiped out in the main structure of society and will not be able to survive easily. That's all.

There is no fixed way to the Tao!

This is what Wei Mubai wanted to express, "Then why did you say to me, 'Cultivation is to abandon jealousy, comparison...'" Isn't anything possible?

Isn't that confident tone contradictory?

Wei Mubai laughed softly, "Not enough understanding, but perfect logic."

That's right! She's a straight A in math, physics, and chemistry, and has been training her logical thinking since she was young!

"Then tell me, what is your Tao?" Wei Mubai raised an eyebrow and asked, "Indulging in jealousy, loving to compare, and tolerating negative emotions?"

No! Xu Hui immediately retorted in her heart.

"No!" Wei Mubai said in a serious tone, "You have been rejecting jealousy, restraining greed, suppressing desires, and curbing emotions."

"...Isn't it good?" Xu Hui didn't understand. Isn't this the good quality that people pursue?

Don’t be jealous of others, don’t be greedy, don’t compare yourself, and work hard to be the best you can be... What’s wrong with that?

"Very good!" Wei Mubai laughed softly. "You regard them as your life creed and have been practicing them all the time. These are all very good qualities. That's why everyone in the Wei family, as well as other people you've come into contact with, such as Mu Yuan, Lei Xiao, Liao Chen, and Master Jingxu, all like you very much."

Otherwise, would Master Jingxu allow Xu Hui to exploit the Wanxiang Bell? Whoever's child is the one who feels sorry for him. Although Xu Hui later returned on her own, bringing a great opportunity to the entire Wanfo Sect, that was after she received the Wanxiang Soil and two more gifts.

Before this, probably no one would have guessed that she could achieve this level?

Even Wei Mubai hadn't thought that her vitality could help the Wanxiang Bell evolve, and thus bring the entire Wanfo Sect a huge benefit by increasing its overall strength by one level.

There is also Mu Yuan, who is in a critical period of urgently preparing various supplies before entering the secret realm. As the young master of the Mu family, it is conceivable how busy he is. He is also willing to take the order and personally refine the magic house for Xu Hui.

This was not only the result of the last life-saving grace, but also Mu Yuan believed that if an accident happened in the secret realm, Xu Hui would be the person he could trust and would not stab him in the back for benefits.

So isn't it an investment to take the trouble to refine a high-quality defensive magic house for her?

When the situation becomes desperate, this Dharma house may become everyone's last resort.

Mu Yuan sincerely believed that Xu Hui would not stab him in the back and would definitely save people if conditions allowed.

And I guess this kind of trust doesn’t even exist with most of the Mu family members!

It is enough to see how precious Xu Hui's character is. While gradually gaining powerful power, he is also willing to strive to adhere to those excellent qualities and suppress and abandon the selfish and dark side of human nature.

"You are good, so this is your way!" Wei Mubai said.

A revelation!

Why did Wei Mubai say that? Because that was the principle that Xu Hui had engraved in her bones since childhood, and it was the path she agreed with.

As for other people's paths, or how many paths there are in the world, it has nothing to do with her!

She just needs to focus on herself and keep going forward unswervingly!

Is it a bad thing to do this? Will I get hurt because of my uniqueness?

No!

With Wei Mubai and the Wei family around, they have the strength to ensure that she can take whatever path she wants!

What's more, she is growing so fast that not just anyone can hurt her!

So what Wei Mubai said about refining the mind is what she would do if she chose this path.

He made such a suggestion because he saw Xu Hui's true nature.

Xu Hui was speechless. "So this is the path that suits me. If you don't tell me about other paths, aren't you worried that I might be narrow-minded?"

“Is the sky you see from a well not still the sky? That small piece of sky is also a part of the sky. If you understand it, it will become the sky.” It is good to have broad knowledge, and there is nothing wrong with being focused!

This is a little different from Xu Hui's understanding. In the education she received since childhood, people should see the world and see all kinds of things.

But Wei Mubai told her that if she could focus on her own world and achieve perfection, there would be nothing wrong with that. Isn't that the truth?

Seeing the world is the Tao, and focusing on oneself is also the Tao. There is no right or wrong, it is just a personal choice.

It’s not that Wei Mubai chose a path for her, but that it was her heart. The principles she had adhered to for eighteen years had been integrated into her bones and had become a part of her. So why should she eliminate or change them?

Just let it go!

"I understand," Xu Hui smiled brightly, "I'll go practice now!"

At this moment, she was in a very good mood. Anyone was told that you don’t have to force yourself to do anything, just be yourself.

There is no need to change yourself to adapt to the world. Her way is also the way of this world. Everyone will feel very comfortable and happy, right?

This is probably the meaning of spiritual cultivation, be yourself and do whatever you want!

Therefore, the protagonists in those novels, who are pushed by the plot and undergo painful transformations and change themselves time and time again, are not really practicing Taoism, they are just becoming stronger.

At this moment, Xu Hui realized and began to like this world.

At the same time, she felt grateful to the system, thanking it for choosing this world for her!

Xu Hui once saw a sentence in a book: When you love someone, you will love the world he lives in.

At that time, she did not understand and regarded it as a simple declaration of love, similar to "I love you for ten thousand years". It seemed beautiful but was actually empty, just a symbol of love.

But now, she seemed to understand the weight of these words!

And the love here is not loving him, nor is it absolutely love.

It is more about loving yourself. Only when your heart is full and you have the ability to love, can you put him and the whole world into your heart.

So it is real that people like the world because of one person.

Xu Hui was in such a great mood that everything she saw pleased her, especially when she thought of Wei Mubai, her heart almost flew away.

Therefore, her cultivation was very natural and smooth, and everything she did was very smooth, including learning the boring formations.

Among the supplies Wei Mubai had prepared before, there was a basic formation plate, which was specifically used to teach her to practice engraving formations.

That is very difficult and complicated, ten thousand times more complicated than the math, physics and chemistry I learned before. It cannot be learned in a short period of time.

Her interest was not here, but she was about to enter a new secret realm, where she might encounter any situation.

She needs to have a simple understanding of the formation so that she can deal with various emergencies.

Although Wei Mubai has very solid knowledge in this area, what if he faints? When Xu Hui needs to make a decision, it is always better to know something than nothing.

In addition, formations are flexible and changeable. They are the most flexible and complex things. Perhaps every formation is different. Only by mastering the basic knowledge can one be flexible and adaptable.

Perhaps when she needs to use her spiritual power to burn the array disk, it is necessary to practice in advance. Otherwise, it will be difficult to complete it in one go if she does it at the last minute.

The drawing of the formation diagram cannot be interrupted and needs to be completed in one go. At the same time, the input of spiritual power is not static, but is based on each node. There is no need to fill in each function, and different levels of spiritual power are input. It is complex and flexible.

Without practice, it is almost impossible to succeed on your first try.

But when it really came to Xu Hui's turn, it meant that the crisis had arrived and Wei Mubai was powerless.

"So during this period of time, you need to master the basic structure of the formation, and remember dozens of the most practical formation diagrams. Use those formation plates to practice and engrave the formation diagrams on them. If you can complete the engraving within half an incense stick, it will be considered a success." Wei Mubai said.

"Half an incense stick," Xu Hui thought for a moment, "OK!"

With a goal in mind, she put in the same effort as she did when she took the college entrance examination and gave it her all.

In addition to learning formations, he also practiced cultivation, swordsmanship, and planting, filling his time.

At the same time, you must take time to refine the magic weapons and spiritual swords in the magic house, and familiarize yourself with their functions and uses, so as to avoid throwing them out like cannonballs on the battlefield due to unfamiliarity.

That was the last resort. The cheapest magic weapon cost tens of thousands of spirit stones. How could it be made like this?

In addition to attributes, she combined these things with her recent learnings to improve her attack methods.

Utilize formations, magic weapons and swordsmanship to launch combined attacks and achieve point-to-surface strikes.

For example, one of the combinations is to use a formation to trap the enemy, and use magic weapons to defend against the enemy's attack on the formation. After trapping the enemy, use sword skills to blast them.

If this set of operations can be performed instantly, it will become a group attack skill with great destructive power.

In order to become proficient, Xu Hui wasted more than a dozen formation plates and magic weapons, and finally found the most suitable combination. Although it could not be performed instantly, it was only a few seconds apart, which was very fast.

The enemy was caught off guard and killed.

Wei Mubai, as his experimental subject, was not careful the first time and almost got injured.

Xu Hui was very satisfied and asked him to practice with her whenever he was free.

When Wei Mubai was busy refining medicine, he would also arrange for other people to help her improve it.

In short, Xu Hui is going crazy with work!
