After refining Qi, go to Jushen, and after Jushen, enter Yuan Dan.
Yuandan realm is the third great realm for monks, and it is also the second calamity that needs to be faced on the road of cultivation.
There is only one chance. If you succeed, you will enter the Yuan Dan and enjoy longevity, achieving a higher level of life. If you fail, you will no longer be able to enter, and you can only stay in Jushen for the rest of your life, and the path of cultivation will come to an abrupt end.
If you are unlucky and have another accident, your cultivation will at least regress, or at worst your soul will be injured and you will be disabled.
Shen Hao had done a lot of homework before, and the "Great Five Elements Jue" that Nie Yun bought for him also had relevant descriptions about the Yuan Dan realm.
The two words "Yuan Dan" actually express the two most important key points of this realm.
Yuan, true Yuan! A kind of new energy that produces qualitative changes after being condensed from true energy, which is also what monks in the Yuan Dan realm mainly "cultivate".
Dan is made from Qi and can be obtained by opening up the Dantian. As a container, it is also the gate of life, used to store and call the condensed true essence.
Yuan and Dan are born together and travel together. They are interdependent and interact with each other.
These are the basic concepts of the Yuan Dan Realm, and Shen Hao will start to slowly brew and then try it according to the breakthrough tips in "The Great Five Elements" that he is familiar with.
Shen Hao sat cross-legged on a futon in the tent. He brought the futon from home. Whenever he meditates and practices, he still likes to sit on it, which makes him feel more at ease.
In addition to the futon, there is also a defensive disk that I bought before, which is also turned on this time.
Several bottles of Da Pei Yuan Dan are kept at hand for easy access. Shen Hao even prepared some elixirs. He didn't know how long his retreat would take.
First, he calmly practiced the zhenqi warm-up as usual, so that he could enter the best state as soon as possible. These are Shen Hao's habits and experiences.
Although he didn't think it was very dangerous, Shen Hao still felt a little nervous when the end came. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
The process of breaking through Jushen and entering Yuan Dan is very different from the previous breakthrough of small realms. Because there is no so-called realm bottleneck or realm barrier for you to break through. Even in perception, there is no reference. Xuan Erxuan relies entirely on himself to find that glimmer of opportunity.
Fortunately, with the help of exercises, you can always find the greatest possibility by following the steps.
It was only after getting the "Great Five Elements Technique" and understanding it that Shen Hao realized firsthand that the quality of the technique meant more than just the speed of practice for a monk. For example, the "Great Five Elements Zhenqi" he had practiced before was no problem, but it lacked descriptions of many key points and relied almost entirely on each person's understanding and understanding, which gave little help.
But "The Great Five Elements Jue" is different. Shen Hao could learn from it that if he wanted to find the slightest opportunity to achieve a breakthrough, he could use a trick to increase his chances.
Run the true energy with all your strength, and then continuously impact the three inches of the lower abdomen, which is the location of the lower Dantian, and condense and squeeze the true energy in the lower Dantian as much as possible to open up the originally narrow "position" of the lower Dantian wider. And in this process, there may be unexpected opportunities.
"The Great Five Elements Jue" does not describe in detail what it feels like to be in the Yuan Dan realm, but uses one sentence: it can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words.
Later, no matter whether I asked Nie Yun or the three guards who followed Shen Hao all day long, although they were all Yuandan realm monks, no one could tell what the opportunity was. It just means that if you seize the opportunity secretly, you can "see the pill".
Don't ask, no one will be able to explain clearly.
Faced with this mysterious statement, Shen Hao didn't have the means or ability to delve into it, so he could only try to get lucky like others.
"I hope I have experienced an epiphany as they say, and the realm of Yuan Dan cannot stop me."
Soon, Shen Hao adjusted his condition and calmly began to let the packed true energy in his meridians gather towards the lower Dantian.
The lower Dantian is really too small, with almost no space, because it is not a big hole, and there is no room for the true energy to maneuver, and there is no way to retain much true energy. Merely as a positional noun for a body.
"This..." Shen Hao was a little embarrassed for a moment. But he soon found a way.
Isn't there no room for true energy to remain? Then squeeze hard, use a spiral method to slowly tighten the strands of true energy, and then rub them together to expand the lower Dantian that has no gaps bit by bit.
To be honest, this process was very painful. At least according to Shen Hao's tolerance, he could not help but sweat on his forehead, and his back molars made a clicking sound.
Shen Hao didn't know if everyone opened up the Dantian in this way, but it was his intuition, and although it was extremely painful for him to do so, it was the same general direction as stated in the "Great Five Elements Jue".
All that's left is waiting.
In pain, people's perception of time will be infinitely lengthened, and afterwards it will be infinitely shortened. So the days feel like years, which means you are in pain and feel that time is too slow. And then you feel unbearable to look back, because you don't want to recall, so the pain was deliberately "shortened" infinitely by you.
Shen Hao felt that he was being tortured. On that first day, he was able to accurately remember the passage of time. Starting the next day, he was no longer in the mood.
Should I take a break? Shen Hao would not do such stupid things, and he would never stop unless he was exhausted.
The third day, the fourth day...
The severe pain has not been reduced by the slightest opening of the lower Dantian, because the gap there is still very small. As soon as it is opened, it is occupied by the infuriating energy, and the infuriating energy in the meridians is again. Keep drilling inside...
I don't know if he was in too much pain and was confused, but Shen Hao seemed to see a dark shadow in his lower dantian. There was a dazzling golden light mixed in the dark shadow... At this scene, Shen Hao felt that he It seems that I have seen it before...
It was like "opening" a pair of eyes. Although the black shadow and golden light flashed away, Shen Hao's consciousness was restored. At this time, he understood that he had found the slightest opportunity...
In the next moment, the zhenqi in the lower dantian that had been squeezed to the extreme suddenly showed a change that Shen Hao had never seen before. It was like it slowly fell silent from a thick mist, and collapsed into tiny particles. Particles much smaller than dust...
Then these particles continue to be squeezed together tightly due to the continuous pressure from all directions.
Shen Hao felt even more painful. Because the particles in the lower Dantian began to increase in number, and unlike the true energy, they seemed to have entities that they shouldn't have!
"I saw Dan too..."
Opening up the dantian and using the true energy as the root is like sowing seeds. Now it bears fruit. Is the thing formed by the gathering of small particles less than half a sesame seed a pill?
