In the light screen of the Great Way chapter, the Seal of Existing Self was surrounded by the Six Righteous Seals. Among them, the "Body", "Mind", and "Mouth" seals had already lit up, while the rest were still dim.
Outside of the Righteous Seals, there were the "Strong Life", "Quick Thoughts", and "Zha Sheng" seals that had yet to be read after being reflected in the Great Way chapter.
Zhang Yu took a look. Now that he had enough Divine Essence, reading the three seals was not a problem. However, if he wanted to find the Heart Light, then he could not do it as he wished. He had to follow the rules passed down by Xuanfu.
First of all, he had to start with the "Strong Life" seal that belonged to the "Body Seal".
Thus, he focused his gaze on it. After a short while, he saw a bit of light blooming on the seal. At this point, he did not have to finish reading it in one go. Instead, he had to stop and read the two seals, "Quick Thoughts" and "Zha Sheng" in turn.
The thought that had been transmitted to his mind earlier only guided him to do so, but it did not tell him why he had to do so.
He guessed that this might be because the first Righteous Seal he felt was the Body Seal, so he used it as a foundation and accepted the two seals as branches, so that they would no longer belong to different Righteous Seals, but rather establish a connection.
Fortunately, this was not a complicated matter. As long as he tried his best to control himself when reading it, it would be fine as long as he did not act on his own accord.
He would not casually question it here. Even if it was the cultivation of an old cultivator, he had to follow strict steps when he started. Moreover, the Great Way chapter was a cultivation method that could not be deviated in the slightest.
Perhaps it was because he was in the early stages of cultivation, the Great Way chapter was not complicated. Following the guidance, he quickly reached the last step. There was a slight difficulty here. He needed to read the three seals at the same time.
The main thing here was to subdue his heart and not let his thoughts wander. However, sometimes, the harder he tried, the more he had to suppress it, and the more his mind would not listen to him.
This was not too difficult for him, because the first step of an old cultivator's cultivation was to suppress his mind. Therefore, he smoothly read the three seals at the same time.
After this step was completed, the three seals bloomed with light at the same time and shone on his body. He also instantly understood and grasped the method of using the three seals.
However, even though his reading went very smoothly this time and there were no mistakes, the seal of the "Light of the Heart" did not appear.
According to Fan Lan, it would be good if they could find it on their first try, but if they couldn't, it meant that they had to read more seals. However, if they couldn't see the light of the heart within a certain number of seals, then they would never be able to find it.
Thinking of this, he seemed to have vaguely grasped something, but a strand of lively spiritual thought was like a swimming fish, unable to completely grasp it.
After thinking about it for a long time to no avail, he decisively put it down and turned back to the front.
Now, he had to try and see how much combat ability these seals could help him improve after he obtained them.
He walked out of the quiet room and went to the backyard. He picked up a bamboo sword from the stone bench that he used for daily practice and swung it to the side. Then, he easily chopped down a tall bamboo branch.
At the same time, he thought of activating the seal of the "Quick Thought". In this instant, he felt his thoughts become incomparably agile, thousands of thoughts turning in an instant.
When that bamboo branch fell, he still had the leisure to think about the length, color, cut, and even the growth cycle of the branch.
The outside world seemed to have slowed down due to the acceleration of this thought process.
His eyes narrowed and he swung his sword again. It accurately landed on the bamboo branch and cut it into two.
At this time, he discovered that when he swung his sword, he still had the spare energy to think about how to exert force and how to strike with the sword more accurately. The only thing that was not coordinated was that his body's movements were slightly slower than his thoughts.
However, his outstanding physical attributes allowed him to quickly adjust, and he continuously used the bamboo sword in his hand to strike the two bamboo branches, maintaining them at the same level.
His movements were slow and elegant, and each strike seemed to be calm and powerful.
After about ten breaths, he suddenly felt a wave of mental exhaustion. Only then did he withdraw his thoughts and withdraw from this state.
The two bamboo branches finally fell to the ground.
At this time, he did not rest. Instead, he once again activated the seal of the "Quick Thought" and continued after feeling tired again.
After a few times, he had already tested that he could enter this state about three to four times in a row. Using the calculation from his previous life, it was about two to three minutes in total.
It was not impossible to continue, but the mental exhaustion was very great. Not only would it affect his normal performance and reduce his combat strength, but it would also bring great damage to his mind and body.
However, there was no doubt that this seal was very useful in a battle. His battle ability could be greatly improved. If he had this skill when fighting with Su Kuang, then perhaps he would not have to rely on Xia Jian's Heart Lake Clairvoyance to accurately determine the opponent's approximate attack route.
Of course, because Su Kuang's speed was extremely fast, even if his mind could keep up, it did not mean that his body could react in time.
However, everyone had their own strengths and weaknesses. A battle was far from a simple comparison between the strong and the weak. Whoever could better display their strengths and avoid their weaknesses would have a greater chance of victory. Therefore, without going through a battle, it was hard to say what the result would be.
He slightly adjusted his breathing and tried the "Zha Sheng" seal again. As he let out a low chant, a strange resonance rang out in his eardrums. He immediately felt a surge of vigor in his heart, and his spirit became abnormally proactive. It was as if all negative states could not affect him, and nothing could stop him.
This state lasted for a relatively long time. After he tried it, with his physique, there was no problem for him to maintain it for fifteen minutes or even longer.
However, he felt that this was unnecessary because it was best to remain calm in a battle. If he was too affected by his emotions, he would instead be controlled by his emotions.
Cultivators should be the masters of their emotions, not the slaves of their emotions.
However, if he encountered an enemy that had the ability to affect his mind or if he encountered an environment that suppressed his emotions, then this seal would become very useful.
Next, he tried to activate the seal of "Strong Life" to see if he could make up for the energy he had just consumed.
As the seal was activated, he suddenly felt a vigorous vitality spread to every corner of his body. His entire person became energetic, as if he had an inexhaustible amount of energy.
This was not an illusion. He could clearly feel that his strength was slightly greater than usual, as if his entire body was burning. Obviously, in a situation where there were no wounds or defects, once this seal was activated, it would replenish his energy.
However, at the same time, he also discovered that this seal could not directly replenish his energy. It could only help him recover. However, this action also slightly increased the speed of his body's growth and even aging.
The use of the seal was not without a price. It was all based on his own body.
At this time, he could not help but think that if he wanted to break through the first seal, he would have to break through the limits of his body. Then, at this stage, the method of accumulating Yuan Qi was undoubtedly correct. However, Xuanfu was teaching them these things now. Was he not afraid that they would overuse their Yuan Qi and cause damage to their bodies, causing them to be unable to move forward?
Perhaps Xuanfu thought that their aptitude was better than the other disciples, so he made this arrangement?
Or was there some other reason?
After thinking for a while, he cast these thoughts aside. No matter what the reason was, as long as he paid attention to his own condition, there would be no problem. Now that he had finished observing the three seals, he could make another trip to Xuanfu at the beginning of next month to see what his next step should be.
In a quiet room in the inner residence of the Fortune Medicine Hall, Bai Qingqing sat on a couch with a bag of black medicinal powder in his hand. This was the secret medicine that he had spent a lot of effort to refine according to the secret method.
Whether it was useful or not was just his imagination, or whether it was really a secret medicine that could assist in cultivation, he had to give it a try to find out.
However, now that things had come to this, he also felt a little nervous.
He took a few deep breaths to calm his mind. Then, he took out the "Picking Beauty Pill" and swallowed one. After sitting silently for a while, he began to use the breathing method taught by Xuanfu.
Soon, he felt his Spirit Essence gradually being drawn out. This was much faster than simply meditating and accumulating it. It was obvious that the pill was taking effect.
However, as time passed, this effect slowly weakened and returned to his normal state. At the same time, he felt a little dizzy, accompanied by waves of weakness.
He knew that his body had been damaged, so he poured the bag of medicinal powder into warm water and slowly drank it. After a while, he felt much better. Under the effect of the gradually spreading medicinal power, a gentle warmth enveloped his body, and the feeling of weakness disappeared.
At this time, he gritted his teeth and took a second Picking Beauty Pill, then continued to gather his Spirit Essence.
However, this time, until the medicinal power of the Picking Beauty Pill ended, he did not feel any weakness. He was still full of spirit. Out of caution, he checked his body several times but did not find any problems.
"It really works!"
His expression suddenly became very excited. This meant that if he did not lack these two medicines, he could continue to refine his Spirit Essence, observe more seals in advance, and leave everyone far behind.
At this time, he could not help but feel a great sense of pride. With this secret method, those students from Xuanfu and those geniuses of the past were nothing. I, Bai Qingqing, will definitely be able to hold up the blue sky and stand above them!
