Chapter 12: Making up a secret technique, Xu Yan realized it

When Xu Yan saw his master waving at him, he immediately became energetic and came over excitedly.

"Master must have seen that I am just one step away from reaching the Golden Bone, but have hit a bottleneck. He is trying to guide me in breaking through to the Golden Bone!"

He came to Li Xuan excitedly, bowed respectfully and said, "Master!"

"Well, you can maintain your enthusiasm and practice diligently, which is great!"

Seeing Xu Yan’s excited face, Li Xuan nodded, expressing his recognition of his hard work in practice.

But in his heart he sighed: "People with poor brains are just persistent. They can't cultivate anything, but they are always stubborn and diligent. It's really rare!"

"I have to say, this disciple is actually...really good, but I'm not an expert!"

Although Xu Yan is stubborn, not very smart and easily deceived, it must be said that his pursuit and dedication to cultivation are truly commendable.

"You have been practicing for a while, and you have been doing the horse stance for a long time. Today, Master will teach you something stronger."

Li Xuan said like a strict teacher.

"Thank you, Master!"

Xu Yan was extremely excited. It turned out that Master saw that I had encountered a bottleneck in my golden bones, so he taught me a stronger method of tempering.

"Watch carefully!"

As Li Xuan spoke, he bent his knees sideways, placed his feet one in front of the other, squatted slightly, and placed his hands one above the other, one in front of the other; his left hand was placed in front of his lower abdomen with the palm facing down, and his right hand was bent at the elbow and raised to shoulder height with the palm facing up.

After getting into position, he looked at Xu Yan and said, "Next, you will do this horse stance. Do you understand?"

Xu Yan followed his posture, got into a horse stance, and nodded, "Master, I understand!"

Li Xuan put away his posture, put one hand behind his back, and said: "This is the basic posture. There are two sentences of skills. You should comprehend them carefully. How much you can comprehend depends on your opportunity."

Simply teaching a new horse stance is too monotonous, so I'll just make up a formula.

Li Xuan thought about it and said slowly, "Remember this. The secret is 'Enlighten your mind and cultivate your true intention. Let your blood and qi be like a dragon to forge a golden body.' You must comprehend it carefully. If you can comprehend the secret, you will be able to appreciate its beauty."

After finishing speaking, Li Xuan walked away leisurely with his hands behind his back, showing the demeanor of a master.

At this moment, Xu Yan was extremely excited, muttering: "The clear mind and the true meaning of my cultivation, the blood and qi are like a dragon casting a golden body... It is really mysterious and extraordinary, I must comprehend it carefully!"

"This must be the secret to tempering golden bones or even jade bones. If you can comprehend the mystery, you will definitely be able to temper golden bones!"

At this moment, Xu Yan was completely immersed in the "kung fu" and forgot himself.

His mind was full of secret techniques, which he repeated over and over again, silently chanting, trying to comprehend something from them.

However, until late at night, he still couldn't understand anything from it!

"It's too profound. I think I have a very high level of understanding and comprehension of bone refining, but I can't comprehend its profoundness in just a short while."

"Sure enough, as Master said, if I can understand the techniques, I will be able to appreciate the mysteries within."

"Xu Yan, you can do it. You can understand the art of martial arts and refine your bones into gold!"

Xu Yan kept encouraging himself.

His eyes were determined and he was not discouraged at all.

It has been less than a day. It is normal to take three to five days to comprehend such a profound skill.

…

When Li Xuan came out before going to bed, he saw that silly boy Xu Yan was still standing there, muttering the martial arts formula he had made up.

"This silly boy, is he possessed by a demon?"

"Don't have any problems with your brain."

So he said, "It's late, time to go back to bed!"

Xu Yan came back to his senses in a trance, and hurriedly bowed and said, "Yes, Master!"

Li Xuan nodded. Although the silly disciple was a little crazy, he still listened to his master, so it was not a big problem.

If he really has reached a dead end, the worst that can happen is that you just have to waste some time trying to enlighten him.

Thinking of this, Li Xuan went back to his room to sleep.

Xu Yan took a deep breath and thought, "Perception depends on timing and inspiration. Forcing it will only make you further away. I almost got caught up in it and lost my mind."

"Thanks to Master for waking me up!"

"Rest, recharge your energy, recover your mind, and continue tomorrow."

"The art is so profound that it cannot be understood overnight. I should be able to comprehend it in three to five days. My talent, Xu Yan, is not that bad!"

After Xu Yan figured it out, he went to rest.

…

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Xu Yan continued to practice, grow vegetables, weed, feed chickens, raise rabbits, cook, etc. as usual. There was no change in his schedule.

The only thing that changed was the posture of the horse stance.

And, stuck at the Bronze Bone Perfection, unable to go any further.

And when he practiced every day, he was trying to comprehend two "skills", but he was still unable to understand the mystery behind them.

Three days have passed, and nothing has been achieved.

"If I can't even comprehend two sentences of the art, how can I refine the golden bones? How can I get started?"

"This is just the basic level of skills. The skills after entering the realm must be more mysterious and unpredictable. How can I continue to practice?"

"Be calm and don't be impatient! Master always says, don't be impatient, don't aim too high, be down to earth... I must have missed something."

Xu Yan calmed down and calmed his mind.

"Master said, if you don't have women in your heart, you can cultivate as if you have a god. This is a state of mind, which is the way to get rid of the biggest distraction in your heart... Men who are full of vigor and vitality are always easily attracted by women and their minds are disturbed.

“Master’s use of women as the biggest distraction in cultivation must have a deeper meaning. This means that Master is trying to wake me up and remind me not to indulge in distracting thoughts.

“What are my distracting thoughts?”

Xu Yan imagined the sentence "If there is no woman in your heart, your practice will be like that of a god" and extended it to a series of profound meanings, then he fell into deep thought.

If Li Xuan knew that Xu Yan was so good at imagining things, he would definitely be shocked. It’s not that his brain doesn’t work well, it’s that his imagination is too big! “My distracting thoughts… are cultivation. My mind is always thinking about cultivation, but is this considered a distracting thought?

“I understand!”

Xu Yan suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind and understood it again.

“Cultivation is a kind of quest, a kind of belief, and a kind of will, but I just stayed at the level of obsession, which then became a distraction!

"I should abandon my obsession with cultivation and focus on the present moment, forgetting about external things and unnecessary perceptions... I should be free from all attachments and devote my whole body and soul to the art of cultivation and to comprehend it carefully..."

At this moment, Xu Yan seemed to have opened a skylight in his mind, and a flash of inspiration appeared, and endless insights emerged.

At this moment, the true meaning of the two sentences of martial arts seemed to be covered by a layer of gauze. With a gentle poke, the gauze could be broken to reveal the true meaning hidden by the gauze!

"To understand the mind and observe myself is to nourish the true intention. To understand the mind is to see oneself and to be clear in the mind. To observe myself is to experience the qi and blood, to observe the qi and blood, and to carefully observe the changes in oneself. To nourish the true intention... is to nourish the qi and blood in the bones and bone marrow, so that the qi and blood will transform and the bone marrow will sublimate...

"I understand!"

Xu Yan's eyes sparkled and he looked excited.
