I don’t know if it’s because the Tianhai Region and Lingnan Region are too far apart, but there is a delay in the information transmission between the clone and the original body. The visualization diagram and elixir refining method that the clone obtained in the Tianhai Region was not received by the original body until two days later.
"Spiritual Master...Visualization method? 'Visualization method of stormy waves'?" Qin Ran pondered for a moment and did not practice it immediately.
He wrote down the "Visualization Method of Stormy Waves" and the "Visualization Method of the Starry Sky" overnight, drew pictures, and wrote down the cultivation methods with his clone's cultivation insights.
The next morning, he came outside the greenhouse and found Zhang Junyi who was reciting.
When Qin Ran arrived, Zhang Junyi was holding a book, reciting in a low voice while walking back and forth unconsciously at the door of the shed.
He was reciting the lesson so seriously that he didn’t even notice Qin Ran’s arrival.
Qin Ran could tell that he was reciting the knowledge about spiritual medicine cultivation, but not the knowledge about foundation building, so he asked, "Do you remember everything about foundation building?"
He suddenly spoke, startling Zhang Junyi. When he came back to his senses and saw him, he quickly saluted and replied, "I basically remember everything."
"Then you can prepare to build your foundation." Qin Ran nodded, without testing him, and said directly, "Go find your master later to make a medicinal bath for you to warm your body, and then ask her to teach you a method to strengthen your body. Now that you know the relevant knowledge of building a foundation, you should know the importance of the body to cultivation."
Can I build my foundation now?! Zhang Junyi was excited, but he did not show it. He only said to Qin Ran respectfully, “Yes, I know, Master.”
"You rely on the 'Basic Practice' to sense Qi, so you need a practice method to build your foundation." Qin Ran said, taking out a book from his Qiankun bag and handing it to Zhang Junyi, "Today, I will teach you the 'Water Flower Heart Sutra' as the basic practice for your future practice."
Zhang Junyi now knew that when building a foundation, he needed to use as gentle and pure mana as possible, and he also knew the importance of "Basic Practice" to a person who was new to the world of cultivation. There was no need to elaborate on his apology and gratitude to Qin Ran.
Now that Qin Ran was teaching him the skills, he was almost moved. He stretched out his hands and respectfully took the skills.
"Thank you, Master!" he said sincerely.
When he straightened up and looked at Qin Ran, Qin Ran had already turned his back to him, giving him a vague and far-reaching back view.
Qin Ran spoke again: "Now, you need to prepare to build your foundation, comprehend the basic skills, learn knowledge about spiritual medicine, and build a residence. The time is tight and the task is heavy. This is a big test for you.
"You are only thirteen years old, can you bear it?"
A test? Can you handle it?!
Zhang Junyi smiled. Although he was only thirteen years old, he had experienced countless sufferings in the world. What he, Zhang Junyi, was least afraid of was the test.
Moreover, for him, this was not a test at all. It was a broad road to becoming bigger, stronger, and moving forward and upward.
"Master, this is nothing." He chuckled, "Of course I can bear it."
"It's nothing?" Qin Ran seemed to laugh and continued, "It's definitely nothing.
"But your cultivation journey has just begun, so the tests have just begun. The further you go on the cultivation journey, the more difficult the tests you will face in the future.
“Life is always like this. When you think the present is the most difficult, the future is actually the test. Now is always the easiest.”
Zhang Junyi thought that his goal was to completely destroy Zhishen Valley. He knew what the chief was talking about. Because to destroy such a large sect, the price to pay would certainly not be small, and his future would certainly be difficult.
"I'm not afraid!" But he patted his chest and assured, "I like challenges very much!"
"It's good that you are not afraid." Qin Ran shook his head, walked forward, and said, "You have to hurry up. The spiritual medicines are currently taken care of by your master. You need to have a certain understanding of spiritual medicines as soon as possible and take over your master's task. The sooner you take over the task, the happier your master will be. Your master is narrow-minded. If it's too late, she will be unhappy..."
As he spoke, he walked to the lake and stood on the shore. Then he seemed to suddenly remember something and turned back.
He walked up to Zhang Junyi and stared at him. After looking at him for a while, he asked him, "How do you feel about Danfeng?"
After hearing this, Zhang Junyi's memory swept through his experiences in Danfeng these days.
This period of time in Danfeng was the happiest and most joyful time for him since his family was destroyed. Except for being despised by the fairy sister in the back mountain, other people in Danfeng were very kind to him. Even the unfathomable chief in front of him treated him very well.
"Very good!" He replied with a smile in his eyes, and repeated, "Danfeng is very good."
As soon as he finished speaking, he found that the abbot's eyes looked at him much softer.
He saw the chief monk take out another book from the magical Qiankun bag and handed it to him. The chief monk's expression became very serious, and he looked at him solemnly and said:
"This technique is the spiritual cultivation technique handed down from our Danfeng ancestors. Thousands of years ago, Danfeng was able to stand at the top of the Immortal Land because of this technique. Now that Danfeng has declined, many things have disappeared in the long river of time, and only this technique has survived. This is the deepest secret of Danfeng, and this technique has always been passed down only to Danfeng's direct disciples. Today, I will pass it on to you."
“Master!” Zhang Junyi was inexplicably excited after hearing this. He stretched out his hands, bowed again, and respectfully took the “Danfeng Ancestral Spiritual Refining Technique” from Qin Ran’s hands.
He lowered his head and saw the words "Vision Method of Stormy Waves" written on the cover of the book, and his heart couldn't help but tremble. He had read many books on foundation building, which mentioned many exercises, but there was no mention of visualization method.
Visualization method? What kind of exercise is it?
He had never heard of it before, had never seen it before, and thought to himself that this was indeed the deepest secret of Danfeng.
At this moment, he felt warm in his heart, and he once again felt Danfeng's kindness towards him. Danfeng treated him as his own, as a family member.
He felt the taste of home in Danfeng.
He was touched in his heart, and the chief monk patted his shoulder again and sighed: "The task of restoring the future of Danfeng and destroying Zhishen Valley is now handed over to you."
He felt the trust and importance again, and was moved to tears. He raised his head, his eyes were already blurred with tears, and he looked at the abbot and nodded heavily.
"Yes!" he responded, making the heaviest promise of his life.
Qin Ran turned and left, walking towards the cabin. As he walked, he disappeared from Zhang Junyi's sight.
Zhang Junyi pressed the meditation method in his hand hard. His excited heart could not calm down for a long time. Tears kept falling from his eyes. He thought: "From now on, Danfeng will be my second home!"
After reciting his lessons and having breakfast, Zhang Junyi began his busy day.
It was not until late at night when everyone was asleep that he had time to take out the secret book of Danfeng given to him by the abbot - "The Method of Visualizing Stormy Waves".
He calmed his pounding heart, and with trembling hands, he opened the first page of the visualization method.
On the first page of the visualization method, there was a picture of a storm rising. He looked at it for a while, but didn't see anything unusual, so he flipped over and came to the second page of the method. There were words on the second page, which taught the cultivators how to practice according to the visualization picture on the first page.
"Visualization diagram? Cultivation?" Zhang Junyi praised repeatedly, it was really a miraculous technique. This miraculous technique was actually cultivated by looking at the diagram.
He turned back to the first page, looked at the visualization diagram, followed the method on the second page, slowly closed his eyes, and tried to construct the "wave picture" in his mind.
This is not easy, because it requires a lot of memory and spatial imagination. Zhang Junyi tried for a long time that night but failed to build it.
It took him nearly half a month to construct the picture vividly in his mind.
The visualization picture took shape in my mind, but...
How to say it?
It may be a bit disrespectful to the abbot to say this, but it is indeed the truth, that is: this technique seems to be of no use.
According to the records of the practice, during the process of constructing the visualization map, the cultivator should see the sea of consciousness being opened in his mind as the visualization map is constructed.
The moment the visualization image is formed, the sea of consciousness should also be opened. Then the visualization image will be transferred to the sea of consciousness.
Now the visualization diagram has taken shape, but Zhang Junyi did not feel any changes.
“Maybe it’s different for everyone.”
Thinking this, he strictly followed the instructions in the exercises and began to visualize the picture in his mind.
Then he found that it was still useless. He seemed to have no sense of change at all.
"Maybe it's my problem?"
He continued to meditate for another half a month, but still did not get any response.
So he had to go find the abbot.
“Master, I have failed your expectations.” He was very disappointed. He returned the visualization method in his hand to the Master and sighed, “I have been visualizing for more than a month and tried several visualization pictures, but there is no response, let alone the soul.”
"No effect?" Qin Ran took over the observation and thought about it, but he was not too surprised.
In the Tianhai Region, among the three cultivation professions of body cultivators, qi cultivators and spirit cultivators, the spirit cultivator is the one that tests one's talent the most.
If a body cultivator has poor talent, he may not be able to reach a higher level, but he can get started; if a spirit cultivator has no talent, he cannot even touch the door of spirit cultivation.
The conditions for cultivation are too harsh, so Lingnan Region changed the cultivation system.
"It's fine if it doesn't work..." Qin Ran sighed pretentiously, "Don't be discouraged. This technique requires too much talent. It's not about spiritual roots, but about soul talent."
soul?
Upon hearing this, Zhang Junyi could only sigh and blame himself for not having the opportunity.
He then retreated to comprehend the Water Flower Heart Sutra.
I originally wanted to let Zhang Junyi be a guinea pig to practice the visualization method first, but now, I have to give up this idea.
Qin Ran frowned and looked at the visualization method in his hand: "Do I have to practice directly?"
He couldn't make up his mind and hesitated for a day. When he was about to practice at night, he suddenly felt something was wrong...
"Visualization diagram, visualization diagram..." He recalled the first time his clone saw the original technique. At that moment, the clone was able to perceive the unique charm of the visualization diagram. "Is there a possibility that it is not Zhang Junyi's problem, but that the diagram I drew is a fake or a pirated copy?"
Realizing this, the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. So the next day, he found Zhang Junyi again, and directly shared the memory of the original visualization picture that his clone saw with Zhang Junyi through the method of transmitting his power through his soul, and asked Zhang Junyi to visualize it again with that visualization picture.
Seeing how devoted the abbot was to his practice, Zhang Junyi was deeply moved and meditated all night long.
He had originally constructed a pirated visualization picture in his mind, and now that he was visualizing the authentic visualization picture, it came naturally and immediately.
At dawn the next day, he saw his sea of consciousness.
His sea of consciousness opened a line to him.
The technique...
It works!
He did not disappoint the first seat's expectations of him.
He immediately shared the good news with the abbot, and after more than a month of practice, he opened his sea of consciousness, let his consciousness enter the sea of consciousness, gave birth to his primordial spirit, and constructed an image of raging storms and rising waves in the sea of consciousness.
The abbot said that the path of cultivation becomes more and more difficult as one goes on, and the tests become more and more difficult as one goes on. However, Zhang Junyi clearly felt that his path was becoming wider and broader.
Since coming to Danfeng, his life has been bright.
He built a bamboo house and had his own house; he gradually took over the task of taking care of the elixir from his master and got a job; he opened up his sea of consciousness, cultivated his primordial spirit, and got a great opportunity; after all this, he comprehended the foundation-building part of the "Shuihua Heart Sutra", and his body was also ready to build the foundation.
After nearly half a year in the cultivation world, he has made all the preparations and is finally going to build his foundation!
On this day, the sky was clear and the breeze was gentle.
Zhang Junyi sat cross-legged by the lake, under the Devouring Demon Willow tree. The spiritual energy of Danfeng gathered towards him. He skillfully and methodically drew the spiritual energy into his body and began to build his foundation.
Unlike Li Shiyin, who was careless, he was familiar with various foundation-building classics, various meridian acupoints, and various situations in the foundation-building process. He was proficient in the big and small circulations...
People like him, like him and Kieran, once they start doing something, it is difficult for them to make mistakes.
As a result, an accident really happened when he was building his foundation.
At the moment when his spiritual energy seed had just taken root in his dantian, a thunder suddenly sounded in the sky!
“BOOM!!”
The sound is violent and the thunder is majestic, which is frightening.
In an instant, the wind and clouds suddenly changed, dark clouds covered the mountains, and a terrifying aura came down from the sky...
"Thunder Tribulation!"
Zhang Junyi was shocked. He knew that there was a possibility of heavenly tribulation when building the foundation, but such things only happened a few times in the entire cultivation world.
How come it was his turn?
He opened his eyes hastily and looked up. He saw a dark sky with clouds hanging in the air like black steel. The entire Daojian Sect territory had turned black. Lightning snakes of various colors, such as gold, red, black, and white, shuttled through the dark clouds.
This kind of movement...
Isn't the intensity of this heavenly tribulation a bit too great? !
Is this the foundation-building calamity?
He was a newcomer on the path of cultivation, and did not understand the heavenly tribulation, so he did not know whether this was normal or not.
"Build your foundation..." At this time, the voice of the chief came over, "It's none of your business!"
He looked over and saw the abbot with a heavy face, floating on the surface of Xijian Lake, looking at the retreat room under the old locust tree.
He immediately understood that it was not his calamity, but Li Shiyin's calamity.
Li Shiyin has been in seclusion for nearly three months and finally made a breakthrough. Her golden elixir tribulation is coming... right?
Watch the daily practice of me and my confused female apprentice, just remember the domain name: \\.\8\2\z\w\.\c\o\\
