The antique street was bustling with people, but Zhui Guxuan was silent.
Chen Hao closed his eyes tightly and took a long breath to eliminate distracting thoughts in his mind until he felt his own heartbeat, and the rhythmic "dong dong dong" heartbeat sounded in his heart.
This step is the introduction to visualization, and it is also the only way to connect the body to the spirit. This heartbeat feeling is not the feedback of the body after strenuous exercise or fright, but the spiritual feeling after meditation and calming down.
Because he had studied in a Taoist temple before, Chen Hao made this step very smoothly.
Chen Hao felt the rhythmic beating of his heart and slowly imagined a picture of a heart in his mind.
This imaginary heart contracts with the sound of heartbeat. What Chen Hao has to do is to make the beating of the heart in the picture and the sound of the heartbeat that he feels reach the perfect same frequency.
I don’t know how long it took, but through repeated mental adjustments, “heart” and “heartbeat” finally completely merged into the same rhythm.
At the next moment, Chen Hao focused his mind on this visualized heart and began to imagine the molten fire.
There are two difficulties in this set of contemplation methods, the first of which is to retain the inner fire of thinking.
Chen Hao didn't expect to succeed in one step, he just gave it a try.
All the knowledge he had about fire since he was a child came to mind, from pod flames to raging flames, from prairie fires to volcanic lava. Even the flame scenes in some film and television works passed through his mind like a revolving lantern.
But there was nothing strange about the heart imagined in my mind.
"Sure enough, it's not that simple."
After trying for a long time without success, Chen Hao sighed in his heart.
How can it be so easy to be the protagonist in an online novel?
I don’t have that kind of fate, it’s not my turn...
However, the slight disappointment was fleeting. Chen Hao took a long breath and planned to quit the visualization and rest for a while, but suddenly something happened!
Just when Chen Hao was about to open his eyes, an inexplicable force suddenly pulled Chen Hao's spirit, making him unable to open his eyes.
The next moment, a murmur sounded in Chen Hao's ears.
The whisper seemed to be that someone was talking, but what was being said could not be heard clearly. The voice seemed to be far away and then closer, as if it was telling a lot of complicated information at the same time, but it seemed that all the whispers were meaningless.
"It's broken, am I going crazy?" Chen Hao was shocked.
Neither Instructor Wang nor Li Linlang mentioned that such a situation would occur during visualization!
Just when Chen Hao was thinking about how to interrupt this inexplicable state, suddenly a clear syllable burst out from the murmur!
"Yi!"
The moment this syllable sounded, Chen Hao's mind suddenly became enlightened.
This syllable has only one meaning -
fire!
Immediately afterwards, in the scene that Chen Haocun was thinking about, a ball of flame suddenly rose from the heart that was beating at the same frequency as the physical body!
Chen Hao: o(ﾟДﾟ)っ!
How is this going?
Am I done?
But Chen Hao reacted very quickly and immediately gave up his previous idea of exiting the visualization state, and instead focused all his attention on the flame.
No matter what the reason is, you should get rid of the anger in your heart.
Chen Hao's mental power focused on the heart fire, and the second half of the visualization emerged in his mind, thinking that the flame would burn the heart hot, and then make the blood boil. The boiling blood would flow out from the heart, through the blood vessels, and flow through the blood vessels. All over the limbs and bones.
This step requires expanding the thoughts and feelings from the heart to the whole body as shown in the visualization diagram in the visualization method!
Chen Hao breathed steadily, trying hard to keep the fire burning in his mind.
After a period of time, even in the state of visualization, Chen Hao felt that every inch of his body was slightly hot, from the Baihui point on the top of his head to the Yongquan point on the soles of his feet.
"So fast?" Chen Hao was also a little surprised.
According to Instructor Wang, although this step is not as difficult as igniting the fire in the heart, it is still a time-consuming effort. The genius who linked Ma Ta Fei Yan himself also said that in the process of his visualization, the most time-consuming The best thing is to let this inner fire travel throughout the body.
Chen Hao didn't know how long it took him, but he was sure that it didn't take long.
Of course, now is not the time to worry about this.
If there are specific road signs for sensing spiritual power through inner vision, then Chen Hao has now completed 90% of the journey.
According to the inheritance records of the Yanxia Museum Association, there is actually a third eye, also known as the heavenly eye, at the Yintang point between the eyebrows of the human body. This third eye looks within and is related to the soul.
The next step is to introduce the heart fire into the Yintang point between the eyebrows, illuminate the spiritual platform, and open the eyes of the sky to sense the existence of spiritual power.
But how to induce it is the second difficulty in visualization.
Chen Hao raised his right hand, curled his index finger into a button shape, and gently tapped the center of his eyebrows.
In the visualization method, this is called "knocking on the heavenly gate". Through feedback from the physical body, the relationship between the Yintang point and the heart fire is established, thereby introducing the heart fire into the Yintang point.
This connection can be said to be mysterious and mysterious, and you can only rely on your own perception.
However, Chen Hao noticed that the murmur in his heart never stopped.
Can we also take advantage of this step?
Chen Hao thought like this, his right hand kept lightly clasping his eyebrows, while his mind was fixed on the inner fire.
The whispers in his mind were still chanting some tunes that were completely inaudible.
After a long time, a clear syllable sounded again in the whisper——
"凁!"
"Sure enough!" Chen Hao was delighted.
Although it was just a syllable, Chen Hao was so blessed that he seemed to hear a Dharma mantra resounding in his mind——
"The way of Vipassana is to calm the mind and calm the mind, not to be distracted by random thoughts, not to be invaded by evil thoughts, fix the body and objects, close the eyes and think, be quiet externally and internally, the divine way is slightly deep, hide all things externally, observe one mind internally, that's it. However, it is clear and still, calmness and chaos have ceased, thoughts are connected, deep roots are extremely peaceful, aura is always present, fragrance is unpredictable, worries and worries will disappear forever, and right and wrong cannot be understood."
The inner fire in his imagination suddenly dissipated. Before Chen Hao could search, he only felt a heat between his eyebrows. It seemed as if an eye slowly opened. In the state of trance, the originally dark space of visualization suddenly burst into light. When the light dissipated, Chen Hao "saw" himself standing in the void, with countless lights flashing beside him, like meteors flying through space.
Looking at the familiar light, Chen Hao couldn't help but raise his hand to grab it. The light hit his hand, making Chen Hao feel familiar in his heart.
"This is...my spiritual power?"
"Did my induction succeed?"
Immediately, Chen Hao had no time to rejoice and found that all the mental energy was flying behind him, so he turned around curiously.
The next moment, Chen Hao was suddenly stunned.
In front of him, he saw a wall!
It was a towering wall made of white mist. The top of the mist wall could not be seen, like a giant wave frozen in the sky, full of oppression. And countless radiances of spiritual power continued to rush towards the fog wall, causing the fog to billow, but were eventually swallowed by the fog wall.
"Is this... a soul barrier?"
Chen Hao looked at the fog wall and suddenly frowned.
Because he felt that the churning of the mist was not caused by the radiant impact of spiritual power, but more like some force behind the wall of mist, causing the mist to vibrate.
Observing carefully, Chen Hao was surprised and confused.
seem……
like……
That murmur came from behind the wall of fog.
Chen Hao hesitated for a moment, and was about to step forward to approach the fog wall, hoping to feel it more clearly. Suddenly, the inner space began to vibrate violently. Chen Hao stood unsteadily, and felt that his feet were empty, and he fell directly. Falling, Chen Hao suddenly fell into endless darkness.
The next moment, outside, Chen Hao suddenly opened his eyes.
But then, a familiar pain appeared in his mind. Chen Hao clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
At this moment, he felt as if countless electric drills were drilling crazily in his head, and as if there were countless big knives cutting his head.
"Damn, my headache is back again."
"Didn't you just commit the crime this morning?"
Chen Hao quickly took out a spare set of powerful painkillers from his jacket pocket and threw it into his mouth.
…
About half an hour later, Chen Hao took a long breath and recovered from his splitting headache.
"That's wrong!" Chen reviewed his experience just now, picked up his phone, and sent a message to Li Linlang——
"I practiced visualization."
"The headache seems to be getting worse."
"It's the second attack today."
After sending the message, Chen Hao accidentally glanced at the time on his phone and was stunned again.
"nine thirty?"
"I started visualizing at five o'clock, right?"
"It only took me four and a half hours to sense spiritual power?"
"Damn it, that person who succeeded in 23 hours is already a genius, so who am I?"
"No, it's okay to pretend to be cool with others, but you can't even fool yourself."
"It must have something to do with that murmuring."
"What is hidden behind the soul barrier? Is there a person locked up?"
Just when Chen Hao was thinking wildly, his cell phone rang. Chen Hao lowered his head and glanced. It was Li Linlang calling.
As soon as Chen Hao connected, he heard Li Linlang's voice with a tone of disbelief——
"Did you see the soul barrier?"
