The sword soared into the sky, piercing through the nine heavens.
The Virtual Sky White Crane flapped its wings, and its figure was extremely agile. It transformed into countless overlapping images, alternating between real and fake, making it difficult for people to distinguish between them.
However, everything seemed to have nowhere to hide under Chen Zong's sword-light. The Virtual Sky White Crane was directly hit, and all of the illusions collapsed and dissipated like bubbles.
The Virtual Sky White Crane flew up high, its wings slowly flapping as it floated in the air. Its cold eyes were filled with complex emotions as it stared down at Chen Zong below.
It had actually been defeated.
The speed of this human's growth was too shocking.
From when he first arrived on the Divine Planet, he was unable to move an inch. Now, not only was he able to move freely, he could even display his strength to fight fiercely with the Virtual Sky White Crane, and then defeat the Virtual Sky White Crane. He had gone through several stages in between, but this kind of growth speed was indeed too shocking.
How many years?
Until now, it had not even been a hundred years.
A hundred years of time, perhaps to ordinary people, was a long journey from birth to death, but to powerful cultivators, it was only a small part of their lives.
The Great Divine Lord put down his brush, turned around, and stared at Chen Zong.
Chen Zong felt an indescribable sense of solemnity for no reason, and could not help but feel a little nervous from the bottom of his heart.
Facing the Great Divine Lord, this kind of feeling was unavoidable, because the Great Divine Lord always had an indescribable sense of majesty. It was a majesty that he could not resist no matter what.
"From now on, I will teach you how to cultivate." The Great Divine Lord stared at Chen Zong just like that, and then opened his mouth to speak. There was an indescribable sense of solemnity and holiness in his voice.
"Thank you, Great Divine Lord." Chen Zong immediately saluted with his sword.
"Your swordsmanship is very high. I cannot give you any more pointers," the Great Divine Lord said unhurriedly. The Great Divine King said unhurriedly, "Your cultivation is a path of its own. Similarly, I cannot give you any pointers."
Chen Zong did not reply. Instead, he quietly listened to the Great Divine Lord's words. Since the Great Divine Lord said that he would teach him cultivation, then he would definitely be able to teach him cultivation. There was no reason, it was just a feeling. Moreover, with the Great Divine Lord's status, there was no need for him to tease him.
"Cultivation is also cultivation of the heart. Your heart isn't pure enough and isn't calm enough." The Great Divine King seemed to be very satisfied with Chen Zong's attitude. After nodding his head slightly, he said this.
Chen Zong was stunned. Was his heart not pure enough and not calm enough?
He didn't feel anything.
When it came to the state of mind, compared to other cultivators, he should be more outstanding. After all, what he cultivated was the One Heart Sutra. From the very beginning, he started with the One Heart Sutra. The One Heart Sutra allowed his state of mind to be more condensed and focused. It also laid a solid foundation for the later stages of the One Heart Sutra, the One Heart Sutra, the One Heart Sutra, and so on.
Chen Zong had always been proud of the cultivation of the mind, even if he didn't show it on the surface.
Now, the Great Divine King actually said that his heart wasn't pure enough and wasn't calm enough. Chen Zong somewhat disagreed.
"From now on, you will meditate at the top of that tree." The Great Divine King didn't give any explanation. Instead, he said, "When your heart is completely calm, then you can enter the next stage of cultivation."
"Yes." Chen Zong could only respond in this way.
The Virtual Sky White Crane soared into the sky. The skinny golden-haired monkey pulled Chen Zong's clothes and wanted to climb up to the tree. Chen Zong took advantage of the situation and climbed up the tree until he reached the top. If it was before, Chen Zong wouldn't have been able to climb up at all. But now, he had adapted to the heavy pressure of the Divine Planet. Under the constant circulation of the Mixed Yuan Heart Force, he could easily withstand the heavy pressure here. His movements were like the wind. Even if he didn't circulate the Mixed Yuan Heart Force, he could withstand the heavy pressure and move normally like an ordinary person just by relying on the Universe Immortal Body.
It was almost impossible to find a foothold at the top of the hundred-meter-tall tree. The branches were very thin, and the leaves were even thinner. How could they withstand the weight of an ordinary person? It was simply impossible.
If it was in the outside world, Chen Zong could easily do it. But here, the heavy pressure was very strong. Even if Chen Zong had adapted to the heavy pressure now, the heavy pressure was still there. The delicate branches and leaves simply couldn't withstand the weight of Chen Zong's body.
Chen Zong tried to stand up lightly, but the branches couldn't bear the weight of his body and quickly bent. Chen Zong couldn't stand or sit steadily.
Little Gold chirped twice and lightly jumped, landing on a delicate branch and leaf. At first, it shook violently, as if it was about to fall. In the next breath, Little Gold sat still with its eyes slightly closed. Its expression actually had a kind of solemn and serene feeling. Its body seemed to be stuck to the branch and leaf, as if it had become one with the branch and leaf. It moved up and down with the branch and leaf, with an indescribable rhythm.
Chen Zong couldn't help but widen his eyes. Little Gold actually did it.
After touching Little Gold's body, Chen Zong knew very well that although Little Gold looked less than a meter tall, it wasn't light at all. It might even be heavier than him.
How did it do it?
With a thought, Chen Zong immediately began to ponder. Then, he concluded that it was the so-called purity and tranquility.
The purity and tranquility of the heart!
Then what should he do to be able to do it?
The Great Divine King's guidance was very simple. It was just a sentence, but whether or not he could understand it depended on Chen Zong's ability.
Chen Zong stared at Little Gold. Little Gold's body seemed to have become one with the leaf, swaying gently in the wind. Sometimes, Chen Zong looked at the Virtual Sky White Crane soaring in the sky. Such an elegant posture and divinity, and so comfortable and leisurely.
Unconsciously, Chen Zong's heart also gradually calmed down, and his thoughts became fewer and fewer.
Don't think about it, don't think about it deliberately, let nature take its course, and appreciate the beautiful scenery everywhere in the world. Chen Zong suddenly felt that sometimes, because he thought too much about how to comprehend and how to cultivate, he unconsciously neglected something.
Some scenery, even if it was a small stone by the roadside or an almost withered weed, seemed so insignificant, but it also had its shape and life. It was just that very few people would pay attention to it, and no one would take it seriously.
In a trance, Chen Zong seemed to have gained something, but also seemed to have gained nothing.
He didn't care, didn't care, and just looked like this, looking here and there, very casually. Unconsciously, as if driven by an instinct, Chen Zong came down from the tree and immediately walked forward.
Stepping on the Celestial Star!
The Divine Planet was not big, and there were woods, lakes, wilderness, and so on. The scenery was also unique, and there were many plants that had never been seen before, as well as many strange-shaped stones.
As if carelessly, as if intentionally or unintentionally, every time he stared at it, he would feel a kind of beauty. Even the angle of a stone had its own uniqueness, which made people unconsciously feel a little touched.
Unconsciously, Chen Zong walked around the Divine Planet, and then returned to the starting point, under the 100-meter-tall tree. He stood still, as if he was looking at the lines on the tree, but Chen Zong's eyes were a little unfocused, and he didn't focus on anything.
Climbing, he directly climbed up. His movements seemed a little strange, but there was a kind of natural feeling, as if it was in accordance with some kind of mystery.
Once again, he climbed to the top of the tree and stared at a leaf. The lines on it were so clear. Chen Zong vaguely felt that the leaf seemed to be breathing, maintaining a mysterious rhythm, as if it was constantly magnifying in front of Chen Zong's eyes. The palm-sized leaf seemed to have become many times larger in an instant, as if it was a continent, and those lines were the rivers on the continent, crisscrossing and stretching endlessly.
With a leap, Chen Zong's body gently floated up and landed on the leaf. The leaf immediately sank down, but as Chen Zong's breathing matched the rhythm of the leaf, as if they had become one, the leaf immediately floated up again, as if it was gently swaying in the wind.
Chen Zong's body seemed to have lost all its weight.
Up and down, left and right, floating up and down, moving with the wind, dancing with the leaves, so careless, and so leisurely.
It seemed that he could think of anything, but also seemed to think of nothing. He completely emptied his mind, not caring about anything, not bothering about anything. Vast and boundless.
Tranquility!
An indescribable tranquility flowed in his heart, like a stream of spring water, so light, free, and continuous.
Chen Zong suddenly woke up. He suddenly felt that he was in a very strange state at this moment. It felt like his body was asleep, but his heart was awake. It was extremely clear, but there were no distracting thoughts. It was as tranquil and clear as the cloudless sky.
Wonderful state, wonderful feeling. Chen Zong finally understood why the Great Divine King said that his heart wasn't pure enough and wasn't tranquil enough.
The heart was the heart, not the mind. The mind was the heart, and the heart was the same as the heart, but there were differences. To put it simply, the mind was the heart, and the mind was the spirit.
He had always been cultivating the mind, and not the pure heart, so it wasn't pure enough. It was also because he was distracted too much and thought too much that he wasn't tranquil enough.
When he understood the difference between the mind and the spirit, when he let go of so many thoughts, allowing himself to be calmer and more comfortable, he could notice more wonderful things that he usually neglected. That kind of feeling came from the heart, and it was indescribable.
What was purity?
It was this kind of purity!
What was tranquility?
It was this kind of tranquility!
It was difficult to describe clearly with words. Comprehending was comprehending. No wonder the Great Divine King's guidance sounded so simple, because it could only be said that, and whether one could comprehend it or not depended on the person.
His body sat on the palm-sized leaf, as if it had lost all weight. The mysterious breathing technique and the swaying leaf's rhythm were one, and there was no distinction between the two, as if this was how it should be.
"What a high talent." The Great Divine King raised his head and glanced at Chen Zong, and suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
Actually, Chen Zong's heart was purer and more tranquil than most of the practitioners that the Great Divine King knew, and that kind of extreme purity and tranquility actually belonged to the gods. Because of the uniqueness of the life of the gods, their hearts were very easy to be pure and tranquil.
It was almost impossible for a non-deity to achieve such a feat.
"He is indeed qualified to go there to cultivate." The Great Divine King's eyes seemed to flash with a divine splendor.
