The courtyard is not big, but it is very clean and warm. Compared with the residences of ordinary disciples, it is indeed more spacious. There are almost everything in the house, even pots and pans, and there are many pastries, fruits and vegetables on the table, and there are also various books, most of which are about practice.

Of course, Li Mengzhou also found that these books were covered with messy things such as magazines and novels.

There is a warm stove in the house, and the green meaning is revealed on all sides, because the house is built with bamboo, and even the tables, chairs and benches are all bamboos.

Jiang Zihua picked up a piece of pastry and put it in her mouth, signaled to Li Mengzhou, and said, "Don't be polite, eat whatever you want."

Li Mengzhou was not polite, but he didn't go to eat.

As if feeling Li Mengzhou's confusion, Jiang Zihua explained: "Although only the inner courtyard has an independent courtyard, haven't I told you that if I want to enter the inner courtyard, I can go in at any time, so I can still have an independent courtyard in the outer courtyard.

But the houses in the inner courtyard are different from here, because the houses are built with fairy bamboos, that is, green bamboos cultivated purely with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The green mind will be radiated all year round, which can refresh the mind and be very beneficial for visualization.

Even if a practitioner has passed the stage of Ancestral Vision, he will still visualize every day. Breaking the realm is carried out during visualization. Of course, there are exceptions to encountering certain things, breaking certain things, breaking the realm, or breaking the realm in battle. However, the latter is more difficult and dangerous.

Most people would not choose this method, and practicing in a house built by Xianzhu in the inner courtyard of the palace can also stabilize the mood and have many benefits. Therefore, many senior brothers and sisters in the inner courtyard of the palace rarely go out, so it is naturally difficult to see them. Except for Senior Brother Ning Si, who is responsible, most often appear in the outer courtyard."

Jiang Zihua patted Li Mengzhou on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Boy, your path of cultivation has just begun. The road to practice is still long in the future. You must work hard. By the way, how old are you this year and when is your birthday?"

Li Mengzhou seemed to be unable to react to the rapid change of Jiang Zihua's topic. He was stunned for a moment and said, "Seventeen years old, the birthday of March."

Jiang Zihua's mouth twitched for a moment. He didn't expect that this junior brother was several months older than him. This was really outrageous.

But he obviously wouldn't say it, so he immediately changed the topic and took the fruit plate on the table to another table. Jiang Zihua sat on the bamboo chair and said, "Since you said you want to guide you, then ask any questions about your practice now. Senior brother, I will answer any questions."

Li Mengzhou does have many questions, but he thinks that even those deeper questions are useless even if he asks Jiang Zihua. What matters more important now is that he wants to know how to be baptized by Amaterasu.

So he immediately started asking.

Jiang Zihua frowned and thought for a moment, and said, "Although the Astrology visualization is the first state in practice, it is actually not a complicated matter. Otherwise, those who have not entered the mountain gate will not be able to enter the visualization casually. I believe that during the introductory test, Senior Brother Ning Si also told you that visualization is just a thought. As long as you think and have the qualifications, you can enter the visualization. There is no special skill.

But it is not that simple to enter the astronomy. In visualization, you must truly understand the way the spiritual energy of heaven and earth moves between heaven and earth. You can witness it in visualization. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth presented in consciousness has shapes, and they also have natural routes of operation. Each trace of spiritual energy of heaven and earth is different, and many of them are connected to the fate of some people.

Therefore, the so-called "reversing the heaven and changing fate" mentioned in the Taoist treasure is to visualize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, find the silk thread that is closest to you, and then find its end, and you can know your own destiny.

Of course, this is just a saying. Not to mention that during the visualization stage, it is impossible for anyone to do it. Even if he enters the five realms, he rarely hears that someone can see the end of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

These things are still too far away for you, so I will not talk about them in detail. If you want to enter Amaterasu from visualization, you must first understand the truth and then find your own way. At that time, the Taotian will naturally feel something, descend to Amaterasu, and endure the baptism of Amaterasu, and then open the door of the Qihai Sea. After the door of the Qihai Sea is opened, you will naturally enter the distant realm."

Li Mengzhou frowned and said, "How to find your own way?"

Jiang Zi drew a handful of melon seeds in the fruit plate. While eating melon seeds and spitting the skin of melon seeds, he said: "The so-called finding one's own way in visualization does not mean the real way. Every practitioner is looking for his own way. Many people have not truly realized it even after entering the four realms. There is no way to talk about this matter with their mouths. When you visualize it, you will naturally understand it. Therefore, there is no shortcut to visualize it from the visualization to the amazhao."

After thinking about it, Jiang Zihua felt that it was not accurate, so she said again: "In other words, seeking Tao in visualization is to find your own intention. Everyone's mind and ideas are different, so the Tao is also different. You just need to uphold your original heart and understand what you want."

Li Mengzhou was thinking. Although he didn't have much hope at the beginning, Jiang Zihua's words were indeed quite touched by him.

The mind is the Tao.

What you think in your heart is the way you want to go.

Stick to your original heart, face the fog, walk through the thorns, and still move forward.

Maybe......

Li Mengzhou looked at his hands. Perhaps his own path existed. He had been walking on this path all the time. Although he had hesitation, hesitation, and fear, he never thought of looking back.

Especially on the day Ye Sangyu left, on the day he set foot in the capital, this belief became stronger.

Li Mengzhou suddenly realized something. The road was already under his feet. Perhaps this road was not easy to walk and it was easy to get lost, but in fact, he always knew in his heart which direction to move forward.

......

Jiang Zihua was silently spitting out the skin of melon seeds, and she was enjoying it.

Suddenly, he frowned slightly, looked up at Li Mengzhou, and then continued to lower his head to eat melon seeds.

In a trance, he woke up suddenly and looked at Li Mengzhou in front of him with shock, not even realizing that the melon seeds in his hand fell to the ground.

As if he couldn't believe it, he rushed out of the courtyard and looked up at the sky.

Right above the courtyard, there is a thick cloud condensing.

Lightning whistled through the clouds.

The moon disappeared at some point, and the stars became brighter.

In the center where the clouds gather, a column of light is filled with mist.

Golden light.

Lightning crisscrossed and muffled thunder exploded.

In a moment, amateur light came.

Jiang Zihua looked at the picture in confusion. Although the facts were right in front of him, he still felt very unreal.

What is this?

He is obviously a fool who has just entered the visualization, but why did he inexplicably enter Amaterasu again?

Jiang Zihua was almost certain that Li Mengzhou had just entered the visualization today. According to time, it was probably less than half a day. Although such a thing was not unique, it was a bit incredible to happen in front of Jiang Zihua.

Even if many evil talents can quickly enter the astroscopy after visualization, it will take at least two or three days, while more will take months or even years. In just less than half a day, they will enter the astroscopy one after another. This is an incredible thing in itself.

"Where did this monster come from?"

Jiang Zihua watched Amaterasu slowly dissipate. Without saying a word, he rushed into the room, staring at Li Mengzhou as if he was watching something strange.

Don’t say that Jiang Zihua was confused, Li Mengzhou was also confused at this moment.

He didn't expect that he would enter Amaterasu so soon.

The sudden baptism of Amaterasu caused stinging meridians, which did cause some torture, but fortunately they were all within the scope of their tolerance, much easier than when Ye Sangyu was forcibly baptized by Amaterasu.

But this feeling was still very profound. If Ye Sangyu had suffered countless times more pain than this at that time, it would be hard to imagine how she could bear it.

Li Mengzhou suddenly felt a little sad.

Although after Amaterasu's baptism, his whole body seemed to be merged into the warm sun, which was extremely comfortable, it could not eliminate some of the throbbing in his heart at this time.

......

The movements of Amaterasu's baptism are naturally easily noticed, especially in the Ligong Mountain Gate, where almost everyone can see the light column falling from the sky.

This is very common in the world of practitioners.

However, since it happened in the Ligong Mountain Gate, it means that the person entering Amaterasu will definitely be the candidates entering Ligong today. After all, the disciples of the Sword Academy have already passed the stage of Amaterasu's visualization.

People who witness Amaterasu's landscape are more or less complicated in their moods, and they secretly guess the identity of the person who is under Amaterasu's baptism.

In an independent courtyard away from the palace, a large area of ​​lakes surrounded by fish swimming in it. Influenced by the baptism of Amaterasu, all jumped out of the water, forming a wonder.

An old man in green robe sat on a bamboo chair inside the house. There were several plates of side dishes on the wooden table in front of him. He held a pot of wine in his left hand. His slightly unsightly eyes looked at the scene of the fish leaping in the lake outside the house, and drank a sip of wine with great calmness.

Three steps away from the wooden table in front of the old man, Ning Haoran was standing, his eyes also staring at the scene of the daylight and the lively appearance of the fish in the lake afterwards.

With a smile in his eyes, his lips moved slightly, and he said, "There are many people who entered the Li Palace today who are still in the stage of visualization, but if there is no opportunity, it is difficult to suddenly be baptized by Amaterasu. After all, they have been visualizing for many years and have not made any progress. However, there was a young man named Li who had just entered the visualization. Although it was unlikely, it was a very strange thing to enter the visualization at the age of seventeen. It was nothing to enter the visualization on the same day."

Ning Haoran turned his head and looked at the old man in the green robe in front of him, stepped forward, helped him pick up a piece of fish and put it in a small bowl, and said, "This fish is the fish in the lake. Taking advantage of this excitement, it will be more delicious."

The old man in green robe looked at Ning Haoran lazily, picked up the chopsticks and knocked the back of Ning Haoran's hand, and said, "I'm just teasing these messy things. The fish has been cooked. Can it suddenly change the taste?"

Ning Haoran smiled and said, "Although the fish will not change, the mood and atmosphere will be different. The taste of the food will always change slightly in the heart."

The old man in green robe shook his head and said, "It's not a big deal to enter the visualization at the age of seventeen. The visualization of the sky is originally just a saying, not a realm of practice, but half-day visualization of the sky is a rare thing, and it's also interesting."

The old man in green robe looks a little old, but mainly because of his decadent face and bad skin. It is difficult to tell how old he is.

This old man is the director of Ligong Sword Academy, the first sword cultivator of Jiang Kingdom, and Xue Wangyou who has entered the fifth realm.

Although Xue Wangyou didn't care, Ning Haoran was still a little surprised. After all, Xue Wangyou said the three words interesting.

There are not many things that can be interesting to Xue Wangyou, except for wine and meat.

Ning Haoran hesitated for a moment and said, "Teacher, although my Sword Academy has a certain status in Jiang Kingdom, it is not at its peak after all. I won't say anything about the academy. There is also Zhaixing Mansion pressing on us. Chen Qiubai is an extremely proud person. No one in the younger generation can compete with him. Even the eldest brother and Beizangfeng of the academy are just as famous as Chen Qiubai. If we cannot defeat him, our Sword Academy will still be under Zhaixing."

Xue Wangyou ate meat and drank wine and said calmly: "This is your young man's business, I don't care. Although your senior brother is very talented in swordsmanship, his personality is a bit scholarly and often he cannot be happy, which goes against the essence of sword cultivator. This is also the purpose of letting him walk in the world, to temper his mind. The sword school needs new blood, but does not need blood wrapped in impurities."

Ning Haoran said: "The eldest brother is a person with a good temper, but it does not mean that he is a weak person. Everyone has his own way of practicing. Perhaps such a eldest brother is the best him."

Xue Wangyou did not comment, frowned slightly, and said, "But if you want to carry forward the sword cultivator, you must have a person who can stand alone. He can be fearless, he can be extremely proud, ignore all the rules in the world, and have the courage to break the rules in the world. The more people there are, the better, but such a road will definitely be difficult and obstacles, and it is extremely easy to die halfway. Perhaps the sword cultivator's Tao is like this, and it is precisely because of this that it slowly withered."

Ning Haoran remained silent.

The path of cultivation is difficult to walk, especially the unique sword cultivator.

There are too many constraints in the world, and there will always be some rules that cannot be broken. Under the pressure of reality, it is not easy to be able to avenge your grudges, hold your sword freely and be scruplelessly, and be scruplelessly.

This is not something that can be done just by wanting to do. Even Xue Wangyou has some kind of restraint and shackles deep in his heart. Some people are unwilling to break it, while others do not have the courage to break it.

This world is very complex, and the human heart is the most complex thing. Only those who have achieved enlightenment with sword heart have the purest heart.

Only then can you have the courage to not be afraid of breaking any rules.

The more things a person cares about, the less he can do whatever he wants. Even those who do whatever he wants on the surface may have hidden unknown stories in their hearts.

......

Facing Jiang Zihua's ghostly gaze, Li Mengzhou said helplessly: "I don't know what's going on. I accidentally entered Amaterasu. I was a little worried at first, but now it seems that this is also a very simple thing."

Simple?

Is this a simple thing?
