"Then what?" Mu Jingyu asked.
"Let the bubbles melt into the meat elixir. Remember not to rush it. You must let them merge naturally and don't push it in forcefully."
I saw that after the bubble approached the meat pill, it seemed to be blocked by an invisible barrier, and it could not be integrated with the meat pill. No matter how many times Mu Jingyu tried, nothing could be done. He was so anxious that he accidentally burst the bubble with a pop.
"What, did you fail?" Mo Yun asked with a smile when he saw Mu Jingyu open his eyes.
"Well, it failed." Mu Jingyu nodded listlessly, with uncontrollable frustration in his eyes.
"Hahaha, you have no confidence now! I think it took me a long time to integrate the first bubble into the meat elixir, and I was already praised by the master. Your first time If you just want to succeed, isn’t it just wishful thinking?”
After listening to Mo Yunshen's words, Mu Jingyu regained his confidence. He called out and meditated again.
Mo Yunshen looked at Mu Jingyu and couldn't help but smile knowingly. He whispered in his heart that once the matter here is over, he will take the two of them back to the teacher's gate. As for Bi Yun's matter, it depends on Master's decision. He had to teach Mu Jingyu well so that he could live up to Qingniu Jing and the other villagers in Mujiacun.
Even when he reached Ri Zheng's head, Mu Jingyu failed to fuse a single bubble into his dantian. However, he has a resolute temperament and an energy that refuses to admit defeat. The more things he cannot accomplish, the more he will be inspired to fight. All morning's hard work yielded no results. Instead, he became extremely interested in practicing.
After two days of hard work, finally in the evening, a bubble was integrated into the inner tank. Mu Jingyu jumped up and down with excitement and almost fell off the stone platform.
Seeing that Mu Jingyu finally succeeded, Mo Yunshen breathed a sigh of relief. In the Jiuhua Sect, the newly recruited disciples are all considered to have excellent qualifications. They can usually successfully integrate the bubbles into the Dantian on the first day. Those like him who only succeed on the evening of the second day will basically quit the mountain. , no longer accepted. And this is only the first level of the assessment for the entry-level disciples of Mount Jiuhua. There are second and third levels to follow. Although it sounds a bit cruel and inhumane, it is to do its best to maintain the capabilities of the next generation of Jiuhua Mountain.
It seems that I really have to teach him diligently these days, otherwise the master will not allow him to enter the sect when he returns to Jiuhua Mountain, even if he is deeply favored by the master.
On the third day, Mo Yunshen stopped Mu Jingyu's practice and explained to him some of his experiences in practice in detail.
In the past two days, the bubbles that Mo Yunshen asked Mu Jingyu to control actually contained the true energy in his body. If it cannot be controlled and guided, it will break down in the meridians and return to the body.
As cultivators, they want to transport these bubbles containing true energy to the Dantian in the lower abdomen. Here, store the true energy bit by bit. At the same time, the volume of the inner bladder is continuously increased so that it can hold more infuriating energy.
When needed, these true qi can be mobilized from the Dantian to enhance the strength of one's own body, and finally achieve the ability to release true qi.
This stage of entry into Taoism is the most boring and boring, just meditating repeatedly every day. Expand the volume of the Dantian little by little. When the Dantian, which was originally the size of a mung bean, expands to the size of a peanut, it can be considered the official entry into the early stage of acquired concentration.
This process seems simple, but in fact it is also the most difficult. I don’t know how many children are unable to break through due to limitations of their own qualifications. Only a very small number of determined people can finally reach this level.
Only when you reach this stage can you officially enter the path of Taoism. It can be regarded as passing the second level of the Jiuhua Mountain entrance examination. Only those who have entered the early stage of concentration will officially enter Jiuhua Mountain. And this is not the end, they have to go through the internal examination and be selected by those who are qualified to accept disciples in Jiuhua Mountain before they can officially become the inner disciples of Jiuhua Mountain. This is the third level. Those children who are not selected will be uniformly classified as outer disciples and receive Taoist teachings from their assigned masters.
Therefore, when Mo Yunshen agreed to Qingniu Jing and take Mu Jingyu back to Mount Jiuhua, he didn't think much about it at all. Now that I think about it carefully, I realize that it is really difficult for Mu Jingyu to enter the inner door.
Alas, Jingyu's qualifications are not very good. It is extremely difficult to become an inner disciple of Mount Jiuhua with this qualification. It seems that I have to teach him carefully these days, and strive to successfully enter the inner gate.
For two days in a row, Mo Yunshen carefully imparted some of his cultivation experience to Mu Jingyu. Fortunately, although Mu Jingyu has poor physical qualifications, he has a strong character and a good understanding. By the afternoon of the fourth day, most of the bubbles had been captured and smoothly integrated into the Dantian.
The sun was setting in the west, and the evening wind began to blow gently, bringing a bit of coolness. Mo Yunshen asked Mu Jingyu to run the Shaoyang Nazhen Sutra once, and then he was ready to call it a day and go back.
At this time, Guo Qingshan's shout suddenly came from the distance, "Junior brother, junior brother, uncle Songyang has led many junior brothers and sisters to the Wuji Ruins. Let's go and greet him now!"
"Oh? This time, is Uncle Songyang coming to Wuji Ruins to participate in the Dao Discussion Conference? Master, why don't you come to participate? Are you still in retreat?"
Hearing Guo Qingshan's shout, Mo Yunshen quickly woke Mu Jingyu out of meditation, stood up and came over.
"Well, when I left the disciples three months ago, my master told me that I would have to break through seclusion during this period of time. It is estimated that after I leave seclusion, I will be able to break through to the late stage of opening the sky and enter the realm of divine knowledge."
Guo Qingshan glanced at Mu Jingyu who was following behind and asked, "How is Jingyu's practice these days? Is it going well?"
Mu Jingyu raised his little face proudly and said, "Uncle Qingshan, I have practiced very hard these days. Uncle Mo praised me a lot. Even Bai Yun and Heitu also praised me, saying that I am a rare genius in the world. !”
When Guo Qingshan heard this, he glared at Mo Yunshen. The meaning was very clear, blaming him for over exaggerating Mu Jingyu's qualifications. Although this can enhance his confidence, it ignores his own cultivation qualifications. Letting him overestimate himself will be of no benefit to his future cultivation.
Mo Yunshen showed a helpless expression. If he could not be encouraged, he would lose confidence and interest in practicing. Let alone the future, I will probably give up now.
"Okay, you go find Bi Yun and the two little Taoists. Senior brother and I still have things to do, so we'll come back later."
"Yes!" Mu Jingyu responded obediently and ran into the house to find Bi Yun.
Wuji Ruins, Kuixiang Palace.
This large area of Kuixiang Palace was divided into Wuji Ruins and was used as a temporary residence for disciples of various sects in Jiuhua Mountain. The entire palace has a main hall, which is used for discussions on Mount Jiuhua. There is a side hall on the left, right and back, which is used for the rest of the highest-ranking people in the door.
Around the main hall, there are more than ten side rooms where other disciples can rest. For the first time, in addition, there are various rooms such as quiet rooms, dining halls, bathing rooms, etc. It can be said that food and drink are all provided.
This afternoon, Master Songyang, the elder of Jiuhua Mountain Tianluo Peak, led nearly a hundred disciples of Jiuhua Mountain and just arrived at Wuji Ruins. This Master Songyang is the younger brother of the head Master Tianyang, and his cultivation level is also in the innate realm.
He is not only in charge of Tianluo Peak, but also the elder of Jiuhua Mountain's execution hall. He was an upright man who was most selfless. Not to mention the disciples of Jiuhua Mountain, even Guo Qingshan did not dare to make mistakes in front of him.
This time the leader Tianyang Zhenren was practicing in seclusion, so he was asked to lead all the disciples from Jiuhua Mountain to Wuji Ruins to participate in the Dao Discussion Conference.
At this time, the apse had just been tidied up. Guo Qingshan led Mo Yunshen into the back hall. I saw an old man with a slender figure and a thin face sitting on a chair, putting a cup of tea to his mouth and taking a few sips.
"Uncle Master."
"Uncle Master."
The two of them bent down and cupped their hands. After a salute, they stood in the center of the hall with their hands down.
Master Songyang put down his teacup, glanced at Mo Yunshen who was following him, waved his hand to signal the other disciples in the hall to step back, and then said, "Yunshen, have you been wandering around Kyushu in the past two years? If you don’t go back to Jiuhua Mountain, you might have forgotten that you still have your master!”
Although Master Songyang's words were calm, there was no sign of anger at all. But Mo Yunshen was trembling in his heart and said he didn't dare.
The angrier this Master Songyang becomes, the calmer his tone and demeanor becomes. Mo Yunshen didn't understand his temperament clearly when he was a child, but he suffered many losses and was beaten.
"Humph, you say you don't dare, but your usual actions are getting more and more outrageous."
Mo Yunshen and Guo Qingshan looked at each other, unable to guess what Master Songyang meant by his words. Did he know about Bi Yun? Probably not. Mo Yunshen only told Guo Qingshan about this matter, and no one else knew about it.
Just when the two of them were wondering what to do, Master Songyang continued, "When you left the mountain, your master told you to return to the master three months ago to consider your cultivation so that you can participate." Do you remember this Taoism conference?"
When the two of them heard this, they both breathed a sigh of relief. Mo Yunshen smiled and said, "Uncle, Yun Shen has indeed forgotten this matter. But you see, didn't I also come on time to participate in the discussion?" Have you attended the Tao Conference? Don’t worry, I will definitely bring honor to our sect in the Tao Conference."
Master Songyang said, "Don't give me a playful smile here. Do you know why your master asked you to participate in the Dao Discussion Conference? Isn't it intended to cultivate you so that you can shine in this conference and get to know people from various sects along the way?" Elder leader, are you happy to take over Jiuhua Mountain in the future! If you are still so stubborn, our junior uncles will really have to consider replacing you."
Although Master Songyang said these words in a calm tone, when they fell into the ears of Guo Qingshan and Mo Yunshen, they were undoubtedly a shock!
Mo Yunshen said hurriedly, "Uncle, as you know, Yun Shen has always been obsessed with cultivating Taoism, and he is used to being lazy by nature. He doesn't like managing things in the sect the most. In terms of qualifications, cultivation, and ability, he should be a senior brother." It’s only right to take over, but I don’t dare to hope!”
As he spoke, he secretly winked at Guo Qingshan, indicating that he would also speak for him, so as to interrupt the plans of his master and several uncles.
But Guo Qingshan was stunned on the spot, staring ahead as if his eyes were empty, not knowing what he was thinking. Mo Yunshen gently bumped him with his arm a few times before he came back to his senses.
"Junior brother, since the master and several uncles have made this decision, they must have considered it. As disciples, we can only obey orders, there is no reason to be disobedient."
Mo Yun saw that his senior brother, who was always facing him, actually stopped speaking for him this time and said anxiously, "Oh senior brother, I think you are the best candidate to take over as the leader. Let's talk to Master." , how about you take over?"
"Nonsense! My candidate for the next head of Jiuhua Mountain is not recommended by you juniors. If you dare to talk nonsense here, be careful about the sect rules!"
Seeing that the two of them were silent, Master Songyang continued, "I didn't want to tell you this matter in advance. But seeing that you still don't put your mind on the sect, I will give you a few pointers. In case you don't want to worry about it in the future. You still have this temper and have missed the next generation of my Jiuhua sect."
"Qingshan, as senior brother, you must teach Yun Shen more in the future, and don't let him act like this."
"Yes, Qingshan would like to follow my uncle's teachings."
"Okay, let's stop talking about this matter. I asked you to come, and there are other things." He stretched out his palm and said to Mo Yunshen, "Hand over the things."
