Chapter 487: Potential from Behavior
Zhou Wen and his group came to the inscriptionless monument and prepared to view it.
"Classmates, can you please wait a moment and look at the inscriptionless stele later?" the middle-aged man walked over and said.
"Why?" Li Xuan asked.
"This is Jun Tingyu, the Taoist expert from our East District. He is here to study the Wordless Stele. If you watch it now, you will be affected by the power of the Wordless Stele, which will inevitably disrupt Jun's research." said the middle-aged man.
"It doesn't matter, let them take a look first." Jun Tingyu spoke from the side.
Since Jun Tingyu had already spoken, the middle-aged man didn't say anything else and returned to their group.
Zhou Wen and his group took out the things they had prepared, and then prepared to start looking at the inscriptionless stele.
Because after looking at the inscriptionless monument for a long time, one will be affected by it and become like a person who is full of energy and cannot sit still, doing things that require physical strength. Therefore, they have prepared some tools so that they can do what they want when the time comes.
For example, Tian Xiangdong prepared two dumbbells and wanted to lift them to consume his energy later. Tian Zhenzhen prepared a yoga mat and planned to do yoga.
Apart from the classical ones, everyone prepared their own tools.
Jun Tingyu seemed quite interested in what they had prepared, and watched with a smile from the side.
"Mr. Jun, I heard that the power of the wordless stele can put people in an excited state. If we use this excited state in studying, can we improve our grades?" asked the middle-aged man Li Mingcan.
Jun Tingyu smiled slightly and said, "This is a great idea, but it's very difficult to actually implement. Legend has it that Laojun Mountain is where the founder of Taoism retired, and his philosophy was primarily based on the word 'Tao'. The Tao follows nature, seeks the origin of all things, and attains the great way of heaven and man. I don't fully understand the meaning and power of this wordless stele, but based on Laojun's thoughts, I suspect it represents the pursuit of nature and a return to the self."
"Master Jun, could you explain it in a more simple way? We still can't understand such a profound concept." Li Mingcan said.
"If my guess is correct, the Wordless Stele should be able to induce one's innate potential. So when it takes effect, humans will act according to their own hearts, cast aside worldly constraints, and do what they most want to do deep down. Things prepared in advance are just what people think they should do, but what they truly want to do deep down in their hearts is not affected by external worldly factors. Therefore, what they do after viewing the Wordless Stele is often different from what they want to do now."
"It's like a student who thinks he should study hard, but that's just because he's in society and is influenced by external factors. But what he really wants to do in his heart is not necessarily studying. In other words, more than 95% of people don't want to study deep down, so even if they bring books, they won't read them when the time comes."
"Is there no way to solve this problem and use the power of the Wordless Stele to do what you want to do?" Li Mingcan asked again.
"When the impact is relatively low at the beginning, you can still control it a little, but after watching for a long time, the inner instinctive potential is fully stimulated, and it becomes difficult to control. Unless you are a saint or a Buddha, no one can control their stimulated instincts." Jun Tingyu said.
While several people were talking, Zhou Wen and the others had already sat in front of the inscriptionless monument, staring at it.
The longer you look at the inscriptionless monument, the greater the impact will be, but it also depends on the firmness of your own will.
If you have a strong willpower, then even if you watch for a long time, the impact will be smaller than that of ordinary people.
But this kind of firmness is not necessarily a good thing; instead, it may be an obstacle.
Humans, influenced by external factors, do many things that go against their own nature. For example, many people feel that work is a burden and are more eager to go out and have fun without worries.
However, due to various external factors, I have to restrain my inner impulse and do work that I don’t want to do, and I also have to find ways to devote myself to the work.
If your will is too strong, you will likely forget your instinctive pursuits and find it difficult to stimulate your innate potential.
"So, those things they prepared are completely useless?" Li Mingcan said as he looked at the tools prepared by Li Xuan and others.
"Unless his original intention is consistent with his current thoughts, it is indeed of little use." Jun Tingyu said very conservatively. In fact, he believed that those things were basically useless.
"I originally wanted to bring some books with me so that I could learn more, but fortunately I didn't bring any," Li Mingcan said with a smile.
Jun Tingyu said, "It's not that you can't read, but you need to enjoy it. One's behavior after viewing the Wordless Stele can also reveal some of a person's future potential. For example, if someone subconsciously practices boxing after viewing the Wordless Stele, then their boxing skills will definitely be extraordinary in the future. If someone subconsciously practices swordsmanship after viewing the Wordless Stele, then their swordsmanship will definitely be extremely advanced in the future."
They were chatting all the time and did not deliberately look at the inscriptionless monument, so they were less affected.
Zhou Wen and the others kept looking at the inscriptionless monument from a close distance. Tian Xiangdong, who had the weakest willpower, was quickly affected. After looking at it for a while, he could no longer sit still and stood up to run in circles nearby.
"What Mr. Jun said is indeed right. The things he brought were not used. But what kind of potential does his running in circles represent? Does it mean that he will be very proficient in techniques such as light work in the future?" Li Mingcan asked.
"This is not easy to interpret, but you can interpret it this way. This is also a possibility." Jun Tingyu actually had another explanation, but he didn't say it.
Running may also be a form of psychological escape.
Zhou Wen looked at the inscriptionless stele for a while, hoping to see something that might help him take his Taoist body a step further and condense his soul.
But who knew that even if he used the Qi Jue he got from the Wordless Stele, the Wordless Stele would not react at all.
After watching for a while, I felt really bored, so I took out my phone and sat there to start brushing the dungeon.
Zhou Wen's action immediately caught the attention of Li Mingcan and others. Li Mingcan asked curiously, "Master Jun, after reading the Wordless Stele, that student actually started playing games. What does this mean?"
Jun Tingyu shook his head and said, "Although everyone enjoys having fun, most people still have some subconscious pursuits. If someone is completely addicted to games like this, their future achievements will probably not be very high. In other words, their achievements will only be in the field of games."
Jun Tingyu's words were already very tactful. In such an era, a student who is addicted to games will obviously not achieve anything.
