Volume 2: Achieving the Nine Heavens and Breaking the Cage Chapter 180: Young Dan
On the way back to the courtyard in the mountains, Gu Xiaoxing finally learned about the situation of Jianyi Valley from Qiao Yanran. He immediately broke out in a cold sweat and was glad that he did not agree.
In Gu Xiaoxing's opinion, Jianyi Valley is simply a valley of madmen. To sum it up in one sentence, it is easy to enter the valley but difficult to leave. Before entering the valley, it does not matter whether you practice swordsmanship or not, but after entering the valley, you must change to practicing swordsmanship, and you can only practice swordsmanship, which is almost mandatory.
What Gu Xiaoxing could not accept the most was that if he wanted to leave the valley after entering it, he would need to perfect his swordsmanship, otherwise, he would never be allowed to leave the valley again!
Listen, how horrible and scary!
In Gu Xiaoxing's words, what is the difference between entering the valley and entering the tomb?
However, having said that, one has to admit that Jianyi Valley is indeed a well-known force in the entire Jiutian Domain. Every person who walks out of the valley can be described as stunning and astonishing, and each one of them is a genius in swordsmanship!
"Only a fool like Chen Zili would join this kind of evil force!" Gu Xiaoxing suddenly thought of Chen Zili, and even felt that he was extremely suitable!
The distance of three hundred miles was almost nothing to the two of them, and soon, the courtyard in the mountains appeared in their sight.
In the courtyard, Xu Qianxing had already woken up. She was sitting in the pavilion. The setting sun shone on her delicate face, adding a touch of color to her pale face. She was staring into the distance, very quietly, as if waiting for something.
When Gu Xiaoxing saw this scene from afar, she inexplicably thought of Xu Qianxing's previous life. At this moment, wasn't she just like that withered flower facing the sun that was waiting for something?
It was not until Xu Qianxing noticed the figures of Gu Xiaoxing and the other person that his expectant eyes began to shine and he immediately stood up and greeted them with a smile.
Gu Xiaoxing took a step forward to her, and looking at her pure smile, he became more determined to cure her!
As the sun sets, the three of them stand there, stretching their shadows very long. The two little guys return to that corner and whimper, bringing peace and tranquility.
Then, Gu Xiaoxing suddenly had an idea and took out various cooking utensils that he had taken from the inner kitchen before, and cooked a sumptuous meal himself. Under the moonlight, the three of them enjoyed the meal very much.
It is easy to get intoxicated by such a happy time, but Gu Xiaoxing knows that he cannot get intoxicated yet, as he still has many things to do. Therefore, this happiness seems even more short-lived.
When he was in the Soul Devouring Sect before, Gu Xiaoxing was almost always forced to practice, and rarely took the initiative to practice. But since some time ago, Gu Xiaoxing has learned to practice on his own initiative, and can even take the initiative to end this rare happiness, so that he can have more time to practice.
This is growth, but also helplessness.
Qiao Yanran and Xu Qianxing also returned to the house. Gu Xiaoxing sat alone in the courtyard, with moonlight shining brightly. Because he was thousands of feet high in the sky, the moon was even brighter, like a misty fairyland.
Gu Xiaoxing's mind moved, and his spiritual consciousness spread out instantly. Everything around him appeared clearly in his mind. He didn't know if it was because his spiritual consciousness had been "blind" once, but now when he used his spiritual consciousness to see, everything was clearer and more detailed.
Even the tiny dust particles in the air that are difficult to see with the naked eye, Gu Xiaoxing can magnify them to the size of a fist and present them clearly in his mind. This alone is something he had never been able to do before.
Both divine vision and visual vision are far better than before and clear as day. This feeling makes Gu Xiaoxing feel refreshed, and he never wants to be blind a second time!
The sudden unblocking of the blockage made Gu Xiaoxing feel clearer than ever before. His mind emptied out, and he subconsciously closed his eyes slowly. His consciousness sank into his body, and his whole body entered a special state.
This state is called enlightenment!
Enlightenment arises from the heart and is achieved . It cannot be forced. It can also be said that enlightenment is the true meaning of practicing Taoism. Beyond this, it is just practice!
The higher your cultivation level is, the harder it is to improve it. After reaching a certain level, it is no longer as simple as accumulation or breaking through a bottleneck.
Instead, one needs enlightenment, and needs to transform from spiritual practice to spiritual cultivation. Only in this way can one truly break through the shackles and reach higher levels!
When Gu Xiaoxing entered this state, he suddenly felt that time slowed down, as if one day in the outside world was one year in his heart.
Of course, this was just an illusion caused by his extremely clear thoughts.
Then, Gu Xiaoxing calmed down and began to sort out everything he had learned. What he had learned was too complicated and needed to be integrated.
When the first day passed, Gu Xiaoxing was still sitting there motionless. Although he did not burst out with his cultivation, there was a terrifying aura surrounding his body, which was extremely extraordinary!
But when the second day came, the power surrounding Gu Xiaoxing was obviously much weaker.
By the third day, Gu Xiaoxing's aura had completely disappeared. He did not look like he was meditating or practicing, but more like a mortal taking a nap.
But as Gu Xiaoxing opened and closed his eyes, an aura that was enough to make even a Jindan Perfectionist tremble with fear spread out!
Gu Xiaoxing's cultivation level has not changed, but his eyes have become darker and deeper, as if many mysterious things are changing in those pitch-black eyes!
Noticing that Gu Xiaoxing had woken up, Qiao Yanran and Xu Qianxing immediately gathered around him, and both noticed that Gu Xiaoxing seemed different.
Especially Qiao Yanran, she had already reached the great perfection of Jindan. Before, she could see at a glance that Gu Xiaoxing was at the initial stage of Jindan. But now, looking at her again, Gu Xiaoxing standing there was like a deep ocean, which made her feel as if she couldn't see through it!
Without using any magic weapons or spells, a person who has reached the Perfect Jindan stage cannot clearly see the cultivation level of a person who has reached the Early Jindan stage. This is not in line with common sense!
And all this is just because Gu Xiaoxing has now gone beyond common sense!
Whether it is the Nine Thunder Soul-Devouring Pill in the upper dantian, or the nine qi seas condensed in the lower dantian based on the spiritual power of the late stage of dan formation, or the Daoyi foundation building in the middle dantian!
This is not something that ordinary monks can do.
In particular, after nearly three days of enlightenment, in Gu Xiaoxing's middle dantian, above the curling green smoke from the burning incense, an extremely tiny gray round particle appeared, and the curling green smoke no longer floated around, but was completely absorbed by the gray particle as it rose!
This particle is the prototype of the golden elixir. Although it cannot be considered a real golden elixir, it can also be called a prototype elixir!
It was the appearance of this embryonic pill that connected Gu Xiaoxing's upper, middle and lower dantians into one, forming a whole and achieving true integration!
Gu Xiaoxing couldn't help but smile, and signaled Qiao Yanran and Xu Qianxing not to get close, then closed his eyes and began to practice the Life-Saving Technique!
"Now, it should be about the same!"
Gu Xiaoxing had a feeling that he would be able to figure it out at this moment!
