Hu Tian went to Tang Qingyuan's home with Shen Hao's post, saying that Shen Hao would personally visit him in five days and offer some soothing medicinal materials as a souvenir from the south.
This was a very formal greeting, and the steward of the Tang family also accepted the greeting card and gift with the same prudence. Before leaving, he sent Hu Tian to the door and repeatedly said, "Sweep the couch and wait for it."
Hu Tian could see obvious surprise on the face of the Tang family's steward, and even his eyes were slightly red, secretly thinking that the situation in the Tang family should be more difficult than he had previously guessed.
He took what he saw and heard in the Tang family back to tell Shen Hao. Shen Hao nodded to express his understanding, but he was not in a hurry. If the Tang family was really in dire straits, they would definitely come to ask for help as soon as they knew he was back. They would not force him to do it, so Shen Hao could follow his own plan.
The things at hand have not become less since I came back, on the contrary, they have become more.
But the first thing is to break through the cultivation that has reached the limit of suppression.
Shen Hao still chose to break through at home, and asked his family members not to disturb him. At the same time, he asked three guards sent by the commander's yamen to protect him. Finally, the magic circle in the study was opened layer by layer, and then the magic disk on his body was also arranged.
When everything was ready, Shen Hao took out a bottle of Da Pei Yuan Dan and put it at hand, sat cross-legged on the futon, closed his eyes and began to calm down and slowly enter the state of practice.
Different from the previous Qi Refining Realm and God Gathering Realm, after entering the Yuan Dan Realm, Shen Hao clearly felt that the path of cultivation under his feet was different from before. The biggest difference is that the "elixir" in his lower dantian and the "true essence" in it are gradually changing his cognition.
In the past, the true energy in the meridians was the source of all spells and the core of the integration of offense and defense. , combined with the sea of consciousness and the soul, a complete system of practice can be formed. Coupled with soul power and black cutting, this is the confidence that Shen Hao has always relied on and looked down on monks in the same realm.
But now, although the true energy is still surging in the meridians, the effect has been slowly replaced by the true energy.
Give a simple example. Let's just say that Shen Hao used the Yanji Dao to bring out the sword. If he used his true energy to activate the sword, it could shoot over ten feet, break gold and cut jade, and even leave traces on the surface of low-grade defensive instruments. This is the power that Shen Hao can only achieve now that he has broken through to the Yuan Dan realm and the strength of his meridians and total amount of true energy have risen again. He could not reach this level before.
But it was the same Dao Gang, and if it was activated with true energy, its power would stun even Shen Hao. One slash of the sword can cut nearly thirty feet! And it can even cut through low-grade inner armor! Of course, the chopping mentioned here only breaks through the defense of low-grade inner armor, but its ability to offset it cannot be completely ignored. But even so, with just two more cuts, Shen Hao would have the ability to destroy low-grade inner armor.
If the true energy is used to activate spells such as Snake in the Palm, Earth Escape, etc., the effect will be the same as when using true energy before.
But it is a pity that the soul power has not been greatly improved due to the emergence of true essence. Like Kurogiri, Shen Hao's cultivation, soul strength, and understanding of related mysteries slowly increased.
At the beginning, the "elixir" was not as big as a sesame seed in the lower Dantian. Now, after a few months, it has grown much larger, almost half the size of a pea. The space inside has also increased, allowing Shen Hao to store more true energy.
As time went by, Shen Hao gradually entered the best state, and he began to follow the instructions in the "Great Five Elements Jue" without haste and began to formally enter the Yuan Dan realm, his first small realm breakthrough.
Different from before, the breakthrough in the Yuan Dan realm is more mysterious. There are no "bottlenecks" and "barriers" that can be perceived by the subconscious mind before, only a mysterious feeling. It takes enough opportunity and understanding to seize the opportunity for breakthrough. This is why monks in the Yuan Dan realm often say that breaking through is as difficult as climbing a dangerous mountain.
How to seize that hidden opportunity?
According to the saying in "The Great Five Elements Jue", "Sink your heart into the elixir and look for it in the elixir. If the elixir moves, it will be broken."
Shen Hao understood the principle of "can only be understood but not expressed in words", but when he saw this description in "The Great Five Elements Jue", he still couldn't help but feel a black line on his forehead. He wanted to complain but didn't know how to do it.
"Search deeply into the elixir and search for it in the elixir. If the elixir moves, it will be broken." What kind of nonsense is this? To say it is to say nothing. It can be summed up in one word: luck.
But even if it mainly depends on luck, Shen Hao has already reached the point where he has to make a breakthrough. If he delays it any longer, the opportunity will dissipate, and it will be unpredictable if such an opportunity appears next time.
According to the teachings, immerse your mind into the lower Dantian, slowly penetrate into the "elixir", and then start looking for the hidden opportunity for breakthrough in the "elixir". To be honest, Shen Hao still has no clue about the so-called "opportunity" and doesn't know if he can find it.
However, Shen Hao obviously still underestimated his "luck". In the eyes of others, he is a late-blooming spiritual genius, and some people even compare him with those talented disciples or talented disciples in first-class and super sects.
How talented is Shen Hao actually? Not quite. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been lingering in the Qi Refining Realm for seven or eight years. The so-called "late bloom" that appeared later on him all came from the help of the black beast tattoo.
But when it comes to understanding, Shen Hao, who has gone through nine-year compulsory education, is an outlier in this world. His understanding and flexibility of thinking can definitely be called "excellent."
Shen Hao's understanding of the so-called "Alchemy Movement" is that he can shake the "Alchemy". In addition to the previous statement of "sinking in Dan", it should be shaken from the inside, and then the so-called breakthrough opportunity will appear.
How to cause vibrations from within? Shen Hao's method is to involve the true energy in the "Dan" to flow back and forth regularly, hitting the Dan wall with all his strength every time, and repeat this.
I don't know how long it took, but Shen Hao suddenly felt a sensation in his body. It was the reaction from the black beast tattoo. He quickly tightened his mind. It might not be easy for the black beast tattoo to appear at the critical moment of breakthrough.
As if to remind him, Shen Hao felt the mysterious sensation coming from the black beast tattoo. He subconsciously pursued this sensation and dug his consciousness deeper into the "Elixir". Finally, he found the clue.
It was a pattern that had never existed before, and it was on the inner wall of the inner layer of the "Dan" that contained the true essence.
The lines are very thin, just enough to form a closed loop. However, the lines appear and appear intermittently and are unstable, as if they may disappear at any time.
Opportunity!
Shen Hao blessed his soul and guided the true energy to carve along the lines like a knife. In an instant, the lines reacted with the true energy. Like a whale swallowing, the true energy escaped Shen Hao's control and sank into the lines and enriched itself... ....
