Chapter 24 The Meditator

The symbol of Wuming Realm is that the flying sword can hide in the sword pill.

Since Jing Jiu is in the realm of no prescription, why can’t he even do the most basic things?

Neither Gu Han nor Yuanqu have ever heard of such things, let alone come up with a solution to it.

The air in the cave suddenly became quiet.

And it lasted for a while.

Jing Jiu woke up and said, "When I didn't say it."

Gu Han and Yuanqu looked at each other, a little embarrassed.

Zhao royue came up with an idea.

"Go to retreat."

In her opinion, Master Jingyang was able to have such an amazing level of cultivation back then because he often went into seclusion at Shenmao Peak for more than a hundred years.

Not like now... Even if you are still a peerless genius, how could you be so lazy and not concentrate on your practice over the years?

Actually, this is a misunderstanding.

Whether in the past or present life, Jing Jiu does not agree with the common retreat in the world of Taoism.

The reason why he rarely leaves Shenmo Peak and claims to be in seclusion for more than a hundred years is mainly because he does not want to meet idle people and do things.

According to his opinion, unless you reach some of the most critical moments of practice, you need to isolate yourself from the world and concentrate on breaking the realm. Normal practice is nothing more than meditation, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and experiencing the ultimate principles of heaven and earth. Why do you have to lock yourself in a cave for so long?

After hearing this, Zhao Layue remembered that Jing Jiu was not an ordinary cultivator.

Ordinary cultivators, including her, often need to go into seclusion. In addition to the critical moment of breaking the realm, even if they are just ordinary practice, if they can have a quieter and undisturbed independent space, it will certainly help absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and refine the heart of Tao.

Jing Jiu doesn't need to do this.

Everyone at Shenmofeng knows that he can practice even if he lies on a bamboo chair.

Even though many times, there is a cat squatting on his head and a cicada squatting on the cat.

He seems to be able to enter a state of enlightenment in the heart of Tao anytime and anywhere.

Zhao Layue even had a feeling that he might have been in this state.

This is awesome talent.

"Then why did Senior Brother Zhuo Rusui from Tianguang Peak stay in seclusion?"

Yuanqu asked curiously.

Zhuo Rusui is the closed disciple of the head of the sect, and is also the most talented person before Zhao Layue and Liu Shisui. He has a high status among Qingshan disciples.

Even though Zhao Luyue has become the master of the Shenmao Peak in recent years, Liu Shisui has done so many big things, but he still has not changed this.

The reason is simple, because he has been in seclusion.

Many disciples knew that there was a senior brother Zhuo in seclusion on Tianguang Peak when they first entered Qingshan.

Until many years later, the Senior Brother Zhuo was still in seclusion.

Not to mention those disciples, even Zhao Layue and Jing Jiu had never seen Zhuo Rusui.

There are many practitioners who have been in seclusion for decades or even longer, but it is rare for those who are as young as Zhuo Rusui to be in seclusion for more than ten years as soon as they first entered the mountain gate.

Anything that goes to the extreme will become amazing. As the retreat period grows longer, Zhuo Rusui becomes more and more mysterious and eye-catching.

Jing Jiu said: "In the words of the human officialdom, he is raising hope."

Gu Qing understood what he meant and smiled and said nothing.

Yuan Qu understands the meaning of nourishing hope, but he doesn't understand what it has to do with Zhuo Rusui's retreat.

Jing Jiu asked: "The court wants to recruit a famous scholar as an official. If the official position he gave does not match his imagination, what would he do?"

"Of course he refused to accept it, so that his reputation will be higher and he may get more in the future..."

Yuan Qu said: "But I still don't understand. Qingshan Sect has no official position. What are Senior Brother Zhuo waiting for?"

"He is waiting for a moment, and he can confirm that he is the strongest among the younger generation of Aoyama."

Jing Jiu said: "I can even imagine those scenes. In the past ten years, there have been several times when he successfully broke the realm. When he was happy, he suddenly knew that there was a young fellow disciple in Qingshan who had more successful breaking the realm than him. In shock, he could only return to the cave again in depression."

Gu Qing and Yuanqu naturally looked at Zhao leyue.

Many records of Qingshan Sect’s practice are on Shenmao Peak, either Jingyang Zhenren or Zhao Laiyue.

Jing Jiu is talking about the latter.

Zhao Layue looked at him and said, "It's not bad to guess his fellow disciples."

Jing Jiu said: "It's not a guess that the head of the sect will accept him as a closed disciple, and he must like him very much, and what a person likes the most is the person who looks the most."

Zhao Layue said: "I don't think I am different from you."

Jing Jiu said: "It's actually quite similar."

Zhao Layue was stunned and said, "You said something...it seems to be a bit too much."

"If you want me to go into seclusion, then I will say everything for some time in the future."

Jing Jiu looked at her and said, "When I was in seclusion, don't delay your practice, you can't let him go."

Zhao Layue said impatiently: "You should worry about yourself."

She respects Jing Jiu very much, but she deliberately acts calmly in front of others, but she really can't help it at this time.

...

...

For practitioners, retreat is of course a big deal.

They had never seen Jing Jiu go into seclusion, they had only seen him lying on a bamboo chair, so they were naturally more cautious.

Zhao Layue wrote a sword book to inform Zhu Feng, then inserted the Fu Si sword into the stone wall, and activated the forbidden formation to seal the entire Shenmao Peak.

The stone gate of the cave was slowly closed.

She said to Gu Qing and Yuanqu: "He has been in seclusion for many years. He doesn't have to stay here forever. He will disperse first and come to see him in a few days."

Several cries of monkeys came from the cliff, and there was no trace of people on the top of the peak.

The white cat slowly walked out of the cave, squinted his eyes and looked at Qiuyang, with an indescribable expression.

The Shenmao Peak Forbidden Formation has been opened, and it can come out to bask in the sun at any time. It is so joyful, but I am sorry that I can't squat on Jing Jiu's head anymore.

A light smoke emerged from the ground, accompanied by a clear friction sound, the cicada ran out and squatted carefully beside the white cat.

...

...

There are many caves in Shenmao Peak that are unused.

Jing Jiu found a cave deep in the peak and walked in.

The setting in the cave is very simple. There is a stone bed without a futon, and a clear spring flows down the wall, and there is nothing else.

He did not go straight to the stone bed and sit down like other monks who went into seclusion, either forming Taoist seals or setting up formations. He looked very casual.

He sat cross-legged, leaned forward slightly, his right elbow landed on his knees, and his right hand held his jaw and began to ponder.

He thought about it for more than ten days.

During this process, he did not get up once, did not drink a sip of spring water, and even his posture did not change.

After Zhao Layue and others confirmed that he was not afraid of disturbing, they came to see him twice and had no idea what he was doing. They only had one feeling.

Jing Jiu, who is contemplating, is really like the immortals in the famous murals of Shuanglin Temple, with a solemn and mysterious beauty.

...

...

One day, Jing Jiu opened his eyes and looked at the iron sword resting beside him, and had a slight thought.

The iron sword flew up and came to him.

According to the practice method of Qingshan Sect or other sword sects, after entering the Wuying Realm, as long as you have a thought, the flying sword will be in harmony with the sword pill.

This process is generally called Sword Collection.

There are many ways for cultivators to collect swords. Some will make the flying sword disappear directly, while others will swallow the flying sword in one mouthful.

There are also some more strait-like sword collection techniques, such as the elders of the Ancient Sword Sect prefer to transport sword balls out of their bodies and welcome the flying swords back in the air.

For sword cultivators who are in the realm of no prescription, collecting swords is the easiest thing to do.

But Jing Jiu couldn't do it. No matter how he activated the sword consciousness, the iron sword could never get close to his body.
