After listening to Locke and Manman's stories, Hua Zhenxing already roughly understood what kind of test he would encounter when his cultivation level broke through from the three realms to the fourth realm, or what kind of tempering he would need to endure.

The ancients called it the Demon Realm Tribulation. This name is quite scary, but stripped of its mysterious cloak, it is nothing more than a dual psychological and physiological phenomenon.

It is said to be a psychological phenomenon because it mainly occurs at the level of consciousness. In an extremely deep state of concentration, the senses block external stimulation and instead perceive things that do not originally exist. In theory, this is an illusion.

It is said to be a physiological phenomenon because it is not a mental illness from a medical perspective, but a reaction that will almost certainly occur after the body and mind reach a certain state.

As long as you have enough concentration and cognitive ability, it is indeed not difficult to pass this test. And those who have reached the perfection of the three realms and can enter this extremely deep state of concentration, which in itself shows that the person has good concentration. As long as there is no interference from unexpected factors, concentration is not the main problem.

As for cognitive ability, it means that the soul is clear and can distinguish the demonic environment and know what to do. Since ancient times, there are ways to observe and stop the demonic realm. The so-called observation means not being surprised, and the so-called stop method means quenching thoughts and retreating.

After cultivating to this point, as long as you can realize what the devil is, you will usually have the determination not to be affected by it. In the process, you will continue to sharpen your soul and produce a kind of transformation.

But since ancient times, why have many people described the demonic realm as so dangerous? For both types of people, it is very dangerous indeed.

The first type of people are those with mental problems. This kind of problem may be common to ordinary people or unique to monks. As one's cultivation improves, the inability to correctly understand the phenomena that happen to oneself may lead to misalignment between cognition and reality.

This is just like some people with ordinary family backgrounds and ordinary abilities who suddenly get a large sum of money for some reason. There is a misalignment between self-perception and actual abilities, and their lives lose their reasonable planning, which leads to abnormal behavior. Even contracted various bad habits.

Many bookmakers who set up illegal gambling bureaus and brokers who engage in investment fraud especially like to find this kind of people, because their determination and cognitive level cannot control the wealth they possess.

In fact, Hua Zhenxing was just a boy in a grocery store half a year ago, and he suddenly gained a huge amount of wealth. Isn't this a magical realm in another sense?

Another example is Locke, who was originally a down-and-out man on the run in the past two days, but suddenly became the heir to the Fulgrim family. This is also a real-life demonic state!

The devil is not a bad thing, in fact, on the contrary, it is a ladder to sublimate the physical and mental realm. It depends on whether people can step over it. Of course, the devil in cultivation is not someone from outside who wants to harm you, but comes from the shortcomings and longings in your heart. And who can be without shortcomings and longings?

People who sink into the devil's realm often think that they should have such an encounter. Once they fall into it, it is likely to lead to mental and behavioral abnormalities, at least not to make any progress in cultivation, or even to completely lose it.

There is another kind of person who is also in danger when encountering the devil, which is the so-called casual cultivator or wild monster. The inheritance they received was incomplete, or there were problems in it, and they often lacked guidance from their teachers. Even if they had guidance from their teachers, they might not be able to do the right thing. They had countless thoughts in mind beforehand, and they didn’t know how to deal with sudden encounters.

In the story told by Zahin, the old priest was in a different situation. He knew what he had encountered and understood the teachings of the senior priests, but he was willing to sink into the devil's realm. He could distinguish between magic and reality, but he did not choose to continue facing the desperate reality.

For most monks, how to break through the demonic realm has long been a very important part of the inheritance. With the reminder and protection of their masters, they all know the normal and correct way to deal with it. In fact, the real difficulty is how to cultivate to this point.

Take Locke, for example. He was once regarded as a genius boy by his teachers and peers, but due to an accidental injury, it took ten years for him to reach this point.

Hua Zhenxing was in the mountains and deep valleys the day before yesterday. He wanted to ask Mr. Feng about breaking through the four realms, but Mr. Feng told him that he could ask Manman and Locke. Hua Zhenxing was still puzzled at the time because these two people had not broken through the Four Realms, but today he still asked specifically, and sure enough he got something.

Hua Zhenxing has made a rough judgment at this moment. Locke is almost ready, while Manman's cultivation level should be still a little behind. As for himself, he is actually almost there.

It was getting dark as they drank tea in the living room of the suite. In the pavilion in the western garden of Palm Manor, there were four people drinking tea around a small table, namely three old men, Mr. Feng.

Yang Tehong seemed a little dissatisfied and said: "How to break the demonic realm, you should ask me first!"

Mr. Feng: "You didn't plan to tell him, otherwise you would have told him a long time ago, right? Since you didn't tell me, I can't do anything. Seeing that Xiaohua had some thoughts at that time, he suggested that he ask Manman And Locke, you can see the situation now, it’s pretty good!

I would like to ask you, old man, let alone breaking the demonic realm, when did breaking the delusional mind and breaking the vacuum start? Nowadays, the inheritance of each sect has been quite complete and rigorous, and the guidance Locke and Manman received from their elders should be the best to use. "

Mo Shangtong nodded: "That's true!"

Ke Mengchao frowned and said, "Xiaohua is still young, isn't it too early?"

Yang Tehong smiled: "This shows that he started early and improved rapidly."

Mr. Feng: "There is no difference between sooner or later. Lao Yang, you always like to talk about letting nature take its course. Why is it not natural when you come to Xiaohua? If we talk about rapid progress, some people will be born as gods! If we talk about breakthroughs It's early, some people became immortals thousands of years ago! So you can't compare your practice with early or late. It varies from person to person, it's just natural."

Ke Mengchao raised his brows and said, "It varies from person to person, that's true."

Mr. Feng picked up the cup and crossed his legs and said: "I once taught a disciple. From the first day of practice to the completion of the golden elixir, it only took him no more, no less than one year. I never thought that he was so diligent. Not even bragging."

Yang Tehong: "Come on, aren't you bragging now? We all know the situation. You are just lucky. Others have helped you lay the foundation since you were a child."

Mr. Feng: "You have also laid a good foundation for Xiaohua since he was a child."

The three old men nodded in unison: "Of course!"

Mr. Feng turned sideways again, looked up at the main building and said, "I came back the night before yesterday. When are you going to make abalone? The Golden Week holiday is over!"

Ke Mengchao: "Isn't the child busy with something?"

Mr. Feng: "Locke told the Forgan Foundation gang to wait for notification, so just wait. Wait until they are ready and wait until they make a decision. Nothing will happen in these two days."

At this moment, Hua Zhenxing, who was in the living room of the suite on the third floor, stood up and said, "I'm going back to the grocery store tonight. I've prepared the sweet abalone. It's time to cook tomorrow. Locke, don't be anxious. Practice well here, and eat Bigu Pills when you are hungry. I have Bigu Pills made from Sussex glue, which can also replenish your vitality!"

Manman: "I soaked more than 20 soft-boiled abalone. I won't be able to finish it tomorrow. I can continue to do it later."

Locke: "I really want to try Hua's craftsmanship... When I mentioned this, I suddenly remembered that someone wanted to invest in setting up a factory in Feso Port. I heard that it was a boss Huang from Dongguohong Port. He wanted to open a Abalone processing factory.

Boss Huang asked Director Gao of the Third Branch of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative to find Wang Fengshou and discuss cooperation in building a factory. He provided funds and technology, and had sales channels. He hoped that this company would provide space, organize and train workers, and ensure production order.

Hua, you can also process soft-boiled abalone. We can completely build this processing plant ourselves. Jindianxing can invest in it. The venue is better arranged and the personnel are ready. I think there are still many people in the Poseidon clan who are unemployed. "

Hua Zhenxing: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Locke: "This is what happened at dinner the day before yesterday. We talked about it in the noodle shop. You called me to the grocery store early yesterday morning, and then I arranged to hide here. I didn't think about it yet."

Hua Zhenxing: "Mr. Yang has taught me since I was a child that when I encounter a problem, I should solve it how to solve it. I can be nervous but not panic, and don't forget that there are other things. I said hello to Wang Fengshou and asked for that boss Huang. Let’s talk about it, it’s indeed a good project, why didn’t I think of it before?”

Locke: "Because there are too many big things for you to worry about."

Hua Zhenxing looked like a master, shook his head gently and said: "No more, no more, just follow the steps."
