303 Three Ultimate Primordial Soul Adepts (1/2)
In three months, besides what Liu Pingsheng had learned about the technique of Divine Dharma through his experience all those years ago, Zhou Donghuang and Liu Pingsheng did not talk about anything else.
However, after three months, the two of them felt as if they had known each other for a long time.
In the three months, Zhou Donghuang had worked on the foundations laid by Liu Pingsheng centuries ago. Zhou Donghuang's understanding of the technique left Liu Pingsheng shocked. In fact, he guessed that if he had met Zhou Donghuang in the past, he could possibly have successfully mastered the technique of Divine Dharma.
Liu Pingsheng left the Lightning Sword Sect quietly. Besides Zhou Donghuang, nobody else noticed his absence.
It was only a month after Liu Pingsheng had left that He Jin, the Autumn Valley Head, came to look for him to ask for advice on a problem that he had met with during his practice… that was when he found out that Liu Pingsheng had already left the Autumn Valley and the Lightning Sword Sect a month ago.
”Donghuang, why didn't you inform me?”
He Jin smiled awkwardly. Liu Pingsheng's absence was a huge matter to both him and the Lightning Sword Sect.
”Valley Head, what problem did you face with your practice?”
Knowing that He Jin had come to look for Liu Pingsheng to ask for advice related to his training, Zhou Donghuang could not help but laugh quietly to himself.
Wasn't this going around the sun to meet the moon?
Right before him was someone who used to be a martial art talent at the ultimate Immortal stage!
”It's something about breaking through… I always feel as if I am about to break through to the Divine Transformation stage, but something's still missing.”
He Jin laughed sadly as he said, ”But since Senior Liu has already left, I can also consult the Sect Leader or an elder instead.”
The two Divine Transformation adepts of the Lightning Sword Sect were nothing compared to Senior Liu Pingsheng, who had already left, but they could surely give him enough advice. After all, they had their own experience with reaching the Divine Transformation stage.
”Valley Head, after you converted to using the Thousand Star Sword Technique, it is only a matter of time before you reach the Divine Transformation stage… typically, you should not encounter such a huge bottleneck,” said Zhou Donghuang.
He Jin had converted to practicing the Thousand Star Sword Technique quite some time ago, and Zhou Donghuang had expected him to already have reached the Divine Transformation stage. He did not think that he would still be stuck at the Primordial Soul stage after so long.
”Normally, you should have broken through a long time ago,” added Zhou Donghuang.
”Although I managed to correct myself eventually, when I tried to reach the crucial point before the Divine Transformation stage, I still reached a barrier.”
Besides his slight embarrassment, He Jin was also extremely helpless.
”Keeping some things from the previous technique?”
Zhou Donghuang was speechless. Although that would allow one to learn the new technique more quickly, it would still be more work in the end because the technique came as a package. If one were to keep things from the old technique, it would definitely hinder the progress of mastering the new technique.
”What is the situation now?” asked Zhou Donghuang.
He Jin shook his head and replied, ”I am not too sure myself… I just have a feeling that after I converted wholehearted to the new technique, there are still remnants of the old routes from the previous technique. When the inner Yuan and Spirit energy pass through my body, some of them will somehow end up following the previous routes.
”I have tried to correct it; I spent one day, ten days, one month, three months, and the longest I spent was even half a year… but there was no improvement,” said He Jin sadly.
”Not even after half a year?”
Zhou Donghuang frowned slightly and said, ”Valley Head, when you were trying to correct it, did you at times allow your Spirit energy or inner Yuan to automatically flow through those routes?”
”Yes.”
He Jin nodded and answered, ”Sometimes, I try doing that to test if I have successfully corrected it, but usually not for long.”
Hearing He Jin's explanation, Zhou Donghuang shook his head and said, ”That is the problem.
”During this period where you are correcting it, you must not allow your Spirit energy or inner Yuan to automatically flow through those routes… why don't you try again, whenever you are practicing, whenever anything flows through those routes, you must control the flow and not allow it to flow automatically.
”If all goes well, within a month, you will surely be able to correct it,” Zhou Donghuang said.
”Of course, within this month, you must remember not to allow your Spirit energy or inner Yuan to automatically flow through those routes… because before you successfully correct this problem, if you allow the Spirit energy or inner Yuan to flow automatically through those routes, all your previous efforts will have been for naught.
”If you keep this up for a month and ensure that the Spirit energy and inner Yuan avoid those routes, you will be able to break that bad habit and correct the problem once and for all.”
He Jin's problem was a small one that Zhou Donghuang could solve easily.
He Jin was not stupid either. After hearing Zhou Donghuang's words, he clearly understood the feasibility of his idea, and after quickly bidding farewell to Zhou Donghuang, he disappeared to try it.
After He Jin had left, Zhou Donghuang returned to his room to continue his practice.
”I never would have thought that… after Dharma Power Control, there is Divine Dharma!”
As Zhou Donghuang sat cross-legged on the mattress, four bright sources of light emanated from his body. These were none other than the four supreme beasts. They surrounded Zhou Donghuang and swallowed the Spirit energy in the air with large gulps.
The Spirit energy of the Qi-Gathering formation was thick, and Zhou Donghuang had hardly been able to use it up during his normal practice. But now, the speed at which the Qi-Gathering formation was absorbing the Spirit energy was far slower than the speed that the four beasts were swallowing up the Spirit energy.
