One of the keys to the Yuan Dan realm is the emergence of "dan" in the Dantian. Although it is still very small, it is an extremely critical step. Because there is only one Lower Dantian and it can only be opened once. If you cannot seize the fleeting opportunity just now and feel that indescribable feeling, you will lose this only opportunity.
Now that "Dan" appears, no matter how big or small, Shen Hao has opened half of the door to the Yuan Dan realm, and stepped one leg in. The only thing left is to open the other half of the door.
With the "Dan", can we try to condense the first ray of true energy?
However, Shen Hao did not panic and start the next step. Instead, he calmed down and carefully felt the magic of this extra "elixir" in his dantian.
The first miraculous thing is that after the "Dan" appeared, the movement of Qi in his body has undergone great changes. This change occurred naturally and was not changed by his will, just like digging a river and the water will naturally overflow along the gap.
It's just that when the true energy reaches the "dan" in the lower Dantian, it starts to spiral through it, as if it is squeezing itself, and then returns to the meridians after passing through. However, after entering and exiting, Shen Hao could clearly feel that a little bit of Qi was left in the "Dan", became a part of the "Dan" and "materialized".
Does this mean that all future practice will be like this? Will the infuriating energy formed by the energy absorbed by the exercises be continuously absorbed and strengthened by the "elixir"? And compared with the severe pain when he took the initiative to open up his Dantian before, now this natural growth is almost imperceptible, let alone painful.
But on the contrary, Shen Hao once again found that the speed at which he absorbed external energy to generate Qi became faster, presumably because of the effect of this "Elixir".
However, Shen Hao sensed it carefully and found that even if the "Elixir" successfully appeared in his Dantian, his realm had not increased at all. He was still only at the ninth level of the God Gathering Realm, and his meridians and sea of consciousness had not gained any new room for improvement. It seems that pushing half the door open is not enough.
He grabbed a pill at hand and drank it. The hunger in his belly quickly disappeared. Then he drank a large pot of water and then swallowed the Da Pei Yuan Pill.
Although the breakthrough was not over, it was a staged platform, and Shen Hao took the opportunity to regroup. Replenish one's own physical strength and the huge consumption of infuriating energy in the body.
After returning to his best condition, Shen Hao calmly fell into practice again. This time, the focus of his perception was still on the lower dantian. After the "dan" was completed, the rest was to condense the true energy.
There is a trick to this. According to the "Great Five Elements Jue", after the "Elixir" is completed, it is necessary to "awaken the elixir". Only through this step can the "Elixir" be turned into another container, and it is also possible to carry out the true essence. of condensation.
The method is to start vibrating from the inside of the "Dan" and hollow it out to form the shape of a container.
Shen Hao's method is still the same, using the vibration of the spiral to develop inside the "Dan" bit by bit. Fortunately, there is no discomfort compared to when I opened my Dantian before.
This time he didn't have to go through a few more days. After only two hours, Shen Hao felt that a tiny "space" had been expanded in the middle of his newly formed extremely small "Pel", and the next second , he subconsciously controlled the intensity of the influx of Qi into the "Elixir", and the result changed.
Originally, after the true energy passes through the "elixir", some strong "elixir" will be left behind, and the rest will re-enter the meridians. But this time it was different.
When the true energy passes through the "dan", a new space is opened up in the middle of the "dan". When the true energy passes through this space, it neither forms a materialized part of the "dan" nor can it become a part of the "dan" as before. It passes straight through, but forms a "liquid"-like state and stays in the small space in the middle of the "Dan".
What the "liquid" gives Shen Hao's senses is: another higher form of existence of true energy!
Both the "dan" and the new "liquid" are extremely small. Even if they are in Shen Hao's body and in the small Dantian, Shen Hao still needs to spend some effort to clearly sense them. But it should be easier to sense it over time.
"Now that the "elixir" is complete, a little bit of the true essence has been condensed. Then it's time to reach the final step."
According to the "Great Five Elements Jue" line, after the "Dan" and Zhen Yuan appear together, the breakthrough is 90% complete. If the last step is successful, the door to the Yuan Dan realm can be officially opened to enter a new realm.
The last step is: open the elixir!
Taking a deep breath, what Shen Hao had to do was to use his sea of consciousness to bring the newly formed "Elixir" under control, and at the same time try to use the "Elixir" for the first time to stimulate the true essence inside, and complete the first true essence shock. , in this way, you can combine the sea of consciousness, "elixir" and true essence, and officially enter the Yuandan realm.
However, the "Great Five Elements Jue" uses three "cautions" to warn against this last step, saying that a large number of people who failed to break through to the Yuan Dan realm fell at the last step of Kai Dan, and even because Failure will damage the sea of consciousness and hurt the soul, thus becoming a useless person.
Shen Hao was naturally very careful. But he soon understood why this last step stumped many people. Because when using the sea of consciousness to connect the "elixir", it will actually cause a great test on the depth, thickness and strength, as if a massive amount of true energy is forcefully squeezed into the sea of consciousness. Then I thought, isn't "Elixir" made of real energy? No wonder I feel this way.
As a result, monks whose consciousness sea is weak and whose soul strength is not strong enough will naturally be trapped at this juncture. If they are unwilling or risk gritting their teeth and force a connection, there will definitely be problems with their consciousness sea.
It's just that this level is completely stress-free for Shen Hao. From the Qi Refining Realm, he accumulated every small realm to the ceiling before he chose to break through to the next small realm. It was still the same when he reached the God Gathering Realm. Such accumulation bit by bit made his consciousness and soul thicker. The strength far exceeds that of most monks at the same level as him.
Therefore, although Shen Hao felt the squeeze and impact when his sea of consciousness connected with "Dan", it had no impact on him at all, and the connection between "Dan" and sea of consciousness was successfully established.
Finally, with a thought, the sea of consciousness affects the "elixir", and the "elixir" in turn affects the tiny bits of true energy in it...
"This is......"
In just an instant, Shen Hao felt an extremely powerful force rushing out of the "Elixir", converging on his fingertips along the meridians and the command of consciousness.
Then with a flick of his finger, Shen Hao fired a simple burst of energy, but the effect was to directly blast out a destructive surface that was about ten feet deep and as thick as a thigh on the ground in front of him!
