At the bottom of the steps, the man smoothed his wet hair in front of his eyes. Under the hair, he could see a slightly childish face——
Sun Quan!
That's right, looking at those delicate and familiar facial features, it's none other than Sun Quan back then. In the past two years, Sun Quan has changed a lot. I don’t know whether it was the time when he happened to grow taller, or whether he was catalyzed by the exotic treasures here. The original little guy has almost grown half of his body, as if he has directly passed the junior high school stage. From an elementary school student to a high school student in an instant, well, from Conan to Shinichi.
And the clothes that Sun Quan wore back then had long been outgrown. Like a primitive man, he wore tattered underpants and ran around naked in the Temple of War all day long. Fortunately, there was no one else here, and Shi Zimiao always kept his eyes closed, so the scene didn't look so embarrassing. However, it was precisely because of this that Sun Quan became more dissolute. Otherwise, how could Sun Quan, who was quite particular, not even care about the most basic appearance?
"hey-hey."
At the bottom of the stone steps, Sun Quan laughed softly, but his voice was unexpectedly low and hoarse.
"Master Shi Zhai, if you kill me, who will talk to you when you get bored?"
"Accompany me?"
Shi Zimiao narrowed his eyes. They both knew exactly why they became so tense.
"Why did you delay for so long?" Shi Zimiao asked.
Sun Quan shrugged, lifted his steps nonchalantly, and walked up the stone steps.
"Master Shi Zhai, you also know that as early as a year ago, I almost ate all the fruits in this lake. It's hard to find something to eat now."
Shi Zimiao glanced at Sun Quan coldly and said in a deep voice,
"You should know very well that these things were no longer useful to you a year ago."
It turned out that in the first year, due to the blessing of the strange fruit in the lake, Sun Quan's realm improved very quickly. In just one year, he practiced the "Supreme Pure Heart Sutra" to the extreme. In Shi Zimiao's words, Sun Quan's "Supreme Pure Heart" Jing Zhenqi is even more piercing than Zhang Jiao back then. The Shangqing Heart Sutra is originally a yin technique. The colder the nature of the true energy, the more powerful the effect will be.
Sun Quan's qualifications and progress have refreshed Shi Zimiao's predictions time and time again, making her unable to help but admire and shock. Shi Zimiao said at the time that as long as Sun Quan could calm down and stabilize his realm, with Sun Quan's talent, it would be a matter of course for him to condense his Taoist heart. If everything goes well, the goal may be achieved in less than a year.
Unfortunately, it didn't take long for things to change.
Under Sun Quan's unscrupulous harvesting, the strange fruits in the underground world lake quickly bottomed out. The reason why these strange fruits are extraordinary is that they do not ripen once a year. Shi Zimiao guessed that they would ripen in ten, twenty or even three years. It is very possible to mature once every ten years. Therefore, Sun Quan had nothing to eat, and the inexperienced pills allowed him to level up.
However, although the exotic fruits are gone, there are many other rare treasures, such as unknown red plants that grow on rocks and are roasted by the earth's fire all day long. Its effect on improving skill is no worse than the strange fruit in the lake. Sun Quan deliberately used Sansi Illusion to try it. Unfortunately, the properties of this red plant are completely different from the strange fruit. After eating it, his whole body was burning. Sun Quan originally thought , it is also used to improve one's own skills, but in fact, because the true Qi of the "Shangqing Heart Sutra" in the body is cold, the two breaths fight against each other, not to mention Sun Quan's own painful feeling of the two heavens of ice and fire, just the internal meridians The consumption and damage are completely worth the loss, and it feels like demolishing the east wall to make up for the west wall.
At that time, Sun Quan regretted it very much. If he had known that from the beginning, he should have eaten different fruits and red plants every day. In that case, he would not have practiced the "Shangqing Heart Sutra" in his body to the extreme and even rejected it. Other attributes of Qi.
Since plants can’t do that, what about animals?
Soon, Sun Quan set his sights on various aquatic creatures in the lake. Since these creatures also live in this cold lake, they must be feminine.
The above is the change in Sun Quan in Shi Zimiao's eyes. Because he tasted the sweetness in the early stage, he gradually became obsessed with it. He did not want to build a solid foundation and was eager for success. He has fallen into a stubborn state. What is the most important thing in this underground space? It’s the Temple of War! It’s the God of War catalog! As a result, Sun Quan bought the coffin for the pearl and did not read the God of War catalogue. Instead, he spent all day thinking about the evil ways.
As expected, Sun Quan was still too young and could not hold his breath. This path had gone astray.
Of course, this is just the reason Shi Zimiao identified. In fact, Sun Quan had no choice but to reach this point.
As mentioned before, with the help of the system, Sun Quan has one of the biggest advantages in practicing martial arts, that is, he will not encounter bottlenecks. But at the same time, Sun Quan also faced two biggest restrictions.
First, Sun Quan can only cultivate his current skills to the top, but cannot go further. For example, in the "Supreme Pure Heart Sutra", if Sun Quan has reached the top level in his cultivation, he will only be at Zhang Jue's level at most. He will never be able to surpass Zhang Jiao with the "Supreme Pure Heart Sutra". Maybe nothing can be seen by comparing it with Zhang Jiao. If you change it to an inferior technique, with Sun Quan's current strength level, a master of the same level as him can easily improve this inferior technique. , it can at least become a second- or third-rate skill. But if Sun Quan practiced on his own, if he didn't join the stream, he would at most reach the peak of the stream, that's all.
Therefore, the best skills are of great significance to Sun Quan. If there was a complete set of skills that could be practiced to Shattering the Void in one go, no matter how difficult it was, it would be no different from a magical skill to Sun Quan!
However, the truly top-notch skills made Sun Quan face his second dilemma.
Second, how can Sun Quan use the system to improve the skills that he cannot learn at all, or even the skills that are not considered skills? Just like this God of War catalogue, there is no movement route, and there is no level distinction between first and second levels. It is very simple, either 0, or 1, or not, or yes. If Sun Quan could understand, he would have understood it instantly, and it would not matter whether he had a system or not, because the God of War Illustration does not need to be improved at all; and if Sun Quan could not understand, the system would not be able to help him understand.
Therefore, in Shi Zimiao's eyes, Sun Quan fell into stubbornness, but only Sun Quan himself knew that he had reached the end. Even if there is still fruit for him to eat, this "Shangqing Heart Sutra" cannot go any further. Apart from becoming more and more profound day by day, Sun Quan could no longer improve his own realm.
When outside, Zhang Daoling left a message as an attraction. Sun Quan felt as if there was still a force pulling him forward, and even surpassed Zhang Jiao in the end. Sun Quan was very confident. But now, Sun Quan can't understand the God of War Illustration at all, and there is no one or any force to pull him. How should Sun Quan condense his Taoist heart? Sun Quan didn't know that the key was that he couldn't find the slightest confidence here.
Compared with the rapid growth in the first year, the sudden stagnation was difficult for Sun Quan to accept, and as time passed, Sun Quan began to become anxious. Gradually, he had other thoughts.
