Douluo's Blue Silver Family

Chapter 272 Transmission of the Dharma

After deciding to tell his parents about his ability to cultivate, Yuan Changqing called Yuan Dongfang and Jiang Fen to his bedroom the next day after get off work.

Then, Yuan Changqing looked at the situation in the courtyard outside, closed the door, and locked it from the inside.

Seeing this, Jiang Fen and Yuan Dongfang were also a little confused when they came in, wondering what Yuan Changqing had to do that made him so mysterious.

Jiang Fen sat on the stool and asked, "Son, why did you call your dad and me in so mysteriously? And why did you close the door so tightly? People might think we're doing something shady!"

"Cough cough, Mom, look at what you're saying. I'm just doing this as a precaution, so that no one will suddenly run into the house. You know how people behave in this compound. They go to other people's houses without saying hello first, acting like they're coming home." Yuan Changqing was also a little annoyed by this in the courtyard, especially those few households with skin thicker than city walls.

Jiang Fen was well aware of the character of the people in the courtyard, so she nodded and said, "Now you can tell us what you want to do by calling us here."

Yuan Changqing and Zeng Li exchanged a glance, then turned back to each other and said, "Mom and Dad, what I'm about to say might seem a bit far-fetched, or even unbelievable to you."

"But please believe me, your son. What I'm about to say is all true."

Yuan Changqing's words left Yuan Dongfang and Jiang Fen somewhat bewildered. Why did their son seem so strange today?

So, Jiang Fen asked in confusion, "Son, what is it? Tell us first, and your dad and I will make our own judgment. Besides, your dad and I are both so old, we've definitely seen more than you've seen, and we're quite knowledgeable."

After that, Yuan Changqing didn't say anything more, and then said, "Mom and Dad, in fact, cultivation is possible in our world. The gods and Buddhas you see in those stories must have come to be through cultivation."

Yuan Changqing's words came as a bolt from the blue, leaving everyone in disbelief. However, given the confident assurances he had made earlier, Yuan Dongfang and Jiang Fen remained skeptical.

After a moment of stunned silence, Yuan Dongfang and Jiang Fen came to their senses.

Jiang Fen asked, her voice trembling slightly, "Son, what you said about our world allowing cultivation, is that true? You're not lying to your father and me, are you?"

Yuan Dongfang also asked, "Yes, Changqing, don't talk nonsense. We know what books you usually read, but you can't just say things like that. If others find out, it will be a big problem."

At this moment, Zeng Li also interjected, "Mom and Dad, I believe what Changqing said is true. We are all family, and Changqing would not lie to you about such things."

Seeing that Yuan Dongfang and Jiang Fen still didn't quite believe him, Yuan Changqing took out the cultivation manual he had obtained and handed it over.

Yuan Changqing said, "Mom and Dad, you can take a look at this cultivation manual first. After you've read it, I think you'll be able to tell whether what I said is true or not."

"Moreover, I have already verified that it is indeed possible to cultivate. Everything I said is absolutely true, and I am not talking nonsense."

"Besides, you are my parents, my family. I have no reason to lie to you about this. It wouldn't do me any good, would it?"

Afterwards, Jiang Fen received the cultivation manual handed to her by Yuan Changqing and began reading it with Yuan Dongfang.

Suddenly, the room fell silent, save for the occasional rustling of pages turning.

After a while, when Jiang Fen and Yuan Dongfang had carefully read through the contents of the cultivation technique, their breathing became somewhat rapid.

After closing the book, Jiang Fen quickly looked up and asked, "Son, are you sure this cultivation technique is real, that it can really be practiced, and not just some made-up story?"

Yuan Changqing nodded and said, "Mom and Dad, it's all true. Moreover, I got this cultivation manual from the scrap metal recycling station where you work when I was assembling the bicycle."

Yuan Dongfang then asked, "Changqing, you just said you've already verified it. Does that mean you've already practiced it?"

"So, have you mastered any skills or techniques?"

Yuan Changqing added, "Mom and Dad, I am indeed already cultivating, and I cultivate every day. This cultivation manual is definitely real."

"However, the current cultivation environment is quite difficult, and I haven't made any significant progress in my cultivation yet."

"However, after my training, my physical condition is much better than before. Take Sha Zhu in our courtyard for example, he's one of the better fighters."

"But if I were to have a match with him now, I could probably beat three or five of those idiots without any problem."

Yuan Dongfang nodded and said, "Changqing, since you say cultivation is difficult, then even if we could cultivate, it wouldn't be of much use!"

Yuan Changqing also knew that because cultivation was difficult, it could make people want to give up.

So Yuan Changqing found a way to keep people going and explained, "Dad, you can't say that. It's true that cultivation is difficult."

"However, it's not without its benefits. For example, cultivation can make your body healthier, stronger, and your skin better. It can also prolong your life and perhaps even help you maintain your peak condition for a long time."

Now, Yuan Changqing can only use this reason to encourage his family to persevere. Once he finds some cultivation resources, he can help his family embark on the path of cultivation.

Upon hearing this, not only were Jiang Fen and Yuan Dongfang moved, but Zeng Li also began to look forward to it.

After all, who doesn't want to be healthy and live longer? Didn't you see in the stories that even Qin Shi Huang wanted to live longer and sent people to find the elixir of immortality?

However, an opportunity is now presented to them: Jiang Fen, Yuan Dongfang, and Zeng Li, and even Yuan Changqing cannot escape the temptation.

Then, Jiang Fen hurriedly asked, "Son, what do you think we should do now to begin our cultivation?"

Seeing that his parents were beginning to believe him, Yuan Changqing was also happy.

Then, Yuan Changqing said, "Now I will tell you about the first realm of the cultivation method of the Sea of ​​Wheels Secret Realm and the Five Elements Scripture."

"The first realm is the Sea of ​​Wheels Secret Realm. You should understand it by reading the cultivation method; it's also described there."

"So, according to my own understanding, everyone has a fixed lifespan, and we cultivate ourselves to resist the erosion of time."

"Thus, time is merciless, always leaving its mark on everything. Trees have annual rings, and the human body also has the rings of life."

"So, where is the Wheel of Life in our body? It corresponds to the dantian. Although the marks on the Wheel of Life will not diminish with age."

"But we can cultivate ourselves. Through cultivation, we can prevent the cycle of life from drying up."

"However, the sea of ​​suffering is also an endless sea of ​​trials that obscures the wheel of life. If we want to transcend and maintain the wheel of life, making it crystal clear and unblemished, with its marks always as fresh as when it was first born, we can only create in the sea of ​​suffering, nurture vitality in the scars, transform them into a spring of life, cultivate divine veins, build a bridge to heaven, reach the other shore, come to the end of the sea of ​​suffering, and reach the other shore."

"Therefore, this Sea of ​​Wheels Secret Realm is a transformation of a cultivator's flesh, organs, and bones, just like a different kind of rebirth, thus achieving a complete metamorphosis."

"Then, after nine more transformations, like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon, the cultivation of the Sea of ​​Wheels Secret Realm is completed."

"Therefore, the purpose of cultivating in the Sea of ​​Wheels Secret Realm is to open the Sea of ​​Wheels Secret Realm, so that the Sea of ​​Bitterness can gush out the Spring of Life, build a divine bridge, and reach the other shore. There are four minor realms, one step at a time."

"Now that I've explained it this way, I think you should understand what the Sea of ​​Wheels Secret Realm is!"

After Yuan Changqing finished speaking, Yuan Dongfang, Jiang Fen, and Zeng Li all nodded to indicate that they understood.

Then, Yuan Changqing said, "Next, I will tell you about the first secret realm of the Five Elements Scripture."

"If the sky had no soil, it could not cover the earth; if the earth had no soil, it could not support all things on it, and grains would have nowhere to grow; if people had no soil, they could not naturally reproduce, and the five constant virtues would not be established. Therefore, heaven, earth, and people cannot exist without soil. If wood had no soil, it would lose its ability to be cultivated; if fire had no soil, it could not illuminate the four directions; if metal had no soil, it would be difficult to exert its sharpness; if water had no soil, it could not use the terrain to flow in all directions. If the earth had no water and no wood, it could not nourish all things; without fire and metal, it could not reproduce and thrive. This is the reason why the five elements are indispensable, and the five elements are thus constructed."

"All beings with blood and qi are governed by yin and yang to establish their nature, and by the five elements to manifest their form. In the body, these are represented by wood bones, metal tendons, earth muscles, water blood, and fire qi—these are the five elements. Each of these five elements has its own function."

"The five elements also generate and restrain each other: metal generates water, water generates wood, wood generates fire, fire generates earth, and earth generates metal; metal restrains wood, wood restrains earth, earth restrains water, water restrains fire, and fire restrains metal."

"Therefore, we need to understand the relationship between the five elements. With this understanding, we will not make mistakes during our cultivation."

"Furthermore, it is necessary to know that the universe is also indispensable to the Five Elements."

"So, corresponding to our human body, the five elements correspond to our five internal organs. This also connects to the second secret realm of the Five Elements Classic, which we will discuss later."

"Therefore, once we understand these things, our cultivation will be twice as effective with half the effort."

"Of course, cultivation is difficult now due to the current cultivation environment, but we still need to seriously understand and ponder it."

At this point, Yuan Changqing explained the first realm of the cultivation technique and the secret realm of the Sea of ​​Wheels, and finally finished speaking.

Then, Yuan Changqing said, "Mom and Dad, you don't need to rush to start cultivating now. Just like Zeng Li, you should first read through the Taoist classics and Buddhist scriptures I've collected and get them fluent. Later, I'll explain some of the meanings of the scriptures to you. When you feel it's appropriate, then you can start cultivating."

Jiang Fen and Yuan Dongfang both nodded. Jiang Fen said, "Alright, we'll follow my son's arrangements. We also need to process what you said before."

"Okay, then. If there's anything you don't understand, or anything you don't get right, you can write it down. I'll explain it to you every few days," Yuan Changqing nodded and said.

After that, everyone left the bedroom and began preparing dinner for the evening.
