In the future, Earth becomes a relic of the mythical era.

Chapter 11 Senior Brother, you lied to me?

Bai Ruhui said, "This 'Carrying the Mountain' painting is the foundation of everything in my Nanhe Wudang. It contains the 'Carrying the Mountain' technique, which is an excellent foundation-building method for refining essence and cultivating life."

"The first priority of visualization is to have a righteous mind and right thoughts, and to be calm and peaceful. You should all have learned the basic visualization method and know how to achieve a righteous mind and right thoughts. Try it first, use the basic visualization method to calm your mind and then visualize this 'Carrying the Mountain' picture."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately took action.

Which young person doesn't think they're extraordinary? They see themselves as unique in the world, ready to transform into a dragon and soar to the sky when the time is right, declaring that their fate is in their own hands, not in the heavens.
Although Bai Ruhui said that they could not possibly succeed, his words went in one ear and out the other.

This genius is here today to prove me wrong!
Almost everyone thinks that way.

But before long, some people started scratching their heads in frustration.

Not only did they fail to visualize successfully, they even found that when they looked at the mountain-carrying picture, even the basic visualization techniques they had long mastered were ineffective.

Unable to even maintain the most basic right mindfulness, one feels only a chaotic and unfocused mind, making it difficult to concentrate.

Some, however, refused to believe in superstition and desperately tried to control their thoughts, until their faces turned red and they were covered in sweat.

Xie Lingxin frowned secretly at this moment.

This picture... is so strange.

It's right in front of me, but I just can't seem to "move" it into my mind.

As soon as I close my eyes, that strange old monkey disappears, and my mind feels like it's being crushed by a mountain, heavy and unable to function at all.

Upon seeing this, the burly man Yun Gui grinned, unsurprised.

Bai Ruhui's expression remained unchanged, which was exactly what he had expected.

"Clouds return, play soothing music."

"Yes."

Yun Gui then took out the other items from the box.

As he was preparing, Bai Ruhui said, "The method of visualization has three essentials: regulating the body, regulating the breath, and regulating the mind."

"The basic visualization method is only a way to regulate the mind, and it is far from sufficient for visualizing the 'Carrying the Mountain' picture."

How to achieve these "three adjustments"?

"Next, I will teach you the 'Guarding One Method' of my Nanhe Wudang Taoist lineage. Listen carefully."

Everyone's spirits lifted.

The Nanhe Wudang School originated from Taoism, and the methods it transmits are all extraordinary, especially the Foundation Building Method, which can only be compared with the Buddhist lineage.

The exorbitant tuition fees they paid were mostly spent on these methods.

"With your five centers facing the sky and your muscles and bones stretched out, until you feel most relaxed, remember this posture. This is body adjustment."

"At the beginning of cultivation, one is in a state of confusion and lack of enlightenment, with distracting thoughts arising and energy scattered."

"At this time, one must 'guard the One,' for the so-called immortals and Taoist priests are not gods, but accumulate essence and energy to attain truth."

"Find an 'anchor point' and stick to it without wavering; that is to remain steadfast in oneness."

"Our Nanhe Wudang lineage uses the sun and moon as anchors, and the essence of Yin and Yang to gather and subdue the scattered consciousness."

"Close your eyes, can you see two boundless, black and white spaces?"

"This is the sign of chaos!"

"Imagine your left eye as the sun and your right eye as the moon, the sun and moon emerging from chaos..."

As Bai Ruhui spoke, Yun Gui was already playing the guqin beside him.

The sound of the zither was melodious and gentle.

It makes one feel as if they are in a wonderful realm, comfortable and at ease, in a daze.

Bai Ruhui's voice, like an invisible force, drew them involuntarily to a wondrous place.

When I closed my eyes, I saw nothing but a vast, chaotic void.

However, the sun and moon that Bai Ruhui spoke of could not be observed no matter what.

Everyone was so anxious that they kept their eyelids tightly shut, their eyes bulging incessantly beneath them.

Bai Ruhui was not surprised at all, as if he had expected it all along.

He pulled out another object from his loose sleeve: a round bead that emitted a faint glow, and a stick of incense.

After lighting the incense, he placed it in the incense burner that Yun Gui had brought and set it aside.

The pearls shone brightly, and a unique fragrance wafted from them.

Everyone felt their pores suddenly open wide, with wisps of air flowing in and out of their pores.

Before long, from the vast chaos, a sun and a moon rose on the left and right, their light dazzling. The sun shone brightly, and the moonlight flowed down.

As the pores opened and closed, a warm current, like the sun, rose from the lower abdomen, making it feel hot and comfortable.

Just then, a cool, refreshing stream flowed into my head, making me feel wonderfully refreshed.

The alternation between hot and cold, in a continuous cycle, is intoxicating.

So comfortable!
So refreshing!
No one had ever felt this way before.

I feel that the legendary attainment of immortality is probably nothing more than this!

Xie Lingxin felt it even more clearly.

[One-Point Rule: 0.01/1]

Unlike the Mountain-Carrying Diagram, it has no clear method or direction.

With the principle of "no obstruction of all laws," as long as there is a method, there is no difficulty for him.

0.01, 0.02...0.11...

This method of adhering to one principle is simpler and easier to advance than the basic conceptual method.

In just a short time, it rose by more than one-tenth.

"what?!"

"Why is there no more?"

Before everyone could fully savor the experience, the exhilarating feeling of ascending to heaven vanished.

They couldn't even see the sun and moon, and suddenly they were pulled out of the mystery, opening their eyes one after the other.

The time it took for each person to emerge from that mysterious state varied, some faster and some slower.

"Master! What's going on?"

One person hurriedly pressed for an answer.

In the incense burner in front of Bai Ruhui, a stick of incense had already burned more than halfway.

The pearl in his hand also dimmed a bit.

Upon seeing it, the person exclaimed in surprise, "A Spirit Pearl?!"

"good."

Yun Gui, who was standing to the side, stopped playing his music and looked pained: "Just now, Master used the Fetal Breath Incense and the Spirit Pearl to let you experience the wonders of absorbing the power of legend in advance, and help you temporarily enter the realm of the extraordinary."

"Otherwise, how could one visualize the sun and moon so quickly, absorbing their essence?"

"what!?"

"I've heard that the Realm of Legends produces a kind of spiritual mineral that contains spiritual energy, which can enhance one's spirituality. Its most precious aspect is that it can enhance the power of legends, making it an essential resource for cultivators. Unfortunately, we haven't come into contact with the power of legends yet, so we can't create it out of thin air."

"There is also the incense for fetal breathing, which can induce a state of fetal breathing, where the mouth and nose are closed, and the skin pores breathe freely. It is an extremely high level of concentration and mental focus, allowing for free visualization."

"These are all extremely precious treasures!"

Yun Gui said smugly, "You know your stuff. Master really went to great lengths for you guys today."

In truth, his heart was bleeding. He didn't understand why his master would take out such a precious item when he was just charging money for teaching. It was a huge loss for him.

Although the master's classes are expensive, they are not worth offering such a treasure.

"Generally speaking, the 'Method of Guarding Oneness' has the saying that it takes at least a hundred days to calm the mind, meaning that it takes at least a hundred days to learn and successfully visualize the sunrise and sunset, and to guard oneness and restrain the spirit."

"Master used these two treasures to help your minds and spirits flourish, saving you at least half the time,"

"The longer you maintain that meditative state, the greater the benefits will be, and the faster you will learn and master the Oneness Method,"

"Unfortunately, even those of you with good aptitude couldn't hold out until this stick of incense burned out. At the very least, it would take at least a month to successfully master the One-Point Method and begin visualizing the 'Mountain Carrying Diagram'."

"There's also the incense for fetal breathing. Fetal breathing is an extremely high level of 'breath regulation,' which you can't possibly reach in a short time,"

"Master uses the incense of fetal breathing to help you temporarily enter the state of fetal breathing, so that you can remember the frequency of this breathing and imitate it with your mouth and nose in the future. Of course, if you have a large family and wealth, you can also use the incense of fetal breathing in your daily practice."

"Senior Brother Yun Gui, are you lying to me?"

Suddenly someone raised a question.

Yun Gui was furious: "What are you saying!"

What a bastard! Who do you think I am? Would I lie to you?!

"Even if the incense hasn't burned out completely, it still takes a month to complete the training. What about him?"
