I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?

Li Xuan didn't know that Xu Yan had already tempered the golden bones he had made up, and was coming over excitedly to tell him that he wanted to get praise and recognition.

At this time, Li Xuan was playing with the gifts Xu Yan gave him last time, a golden sword and jade Ruyi.

The golden sword is inlaid with orbs, made entirely of gold, and is extremely valuable.

The jade Ruyi is engraved with auspicious cloud patterns, and it is flawless. It looks like it is carved from the best jade. In terms of value, it is probably higher than the golden sword.

"Although this golden sword is not low in value, no matter how I look at it, I feel that the jade Ruyi is more valuable and rarer.

"Look at the texture of this jade. It's flawless and crystal clear. It feels warm and moist when you touch it in your hand... I like this jade Ruyi better than the golden sword.

“It would be great if we could get a pair together and keep them as family heirlooms.

"I've already been deceived anyway, so I don't care. Why don't you just deceive another piece of jade Ruyi?"

Li Xuan played with Yu Ruyi, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

I muttered in my heart and asked my silly apprentice to find another piece of jade Ruyi to make a pair as a family heirloom.

Just then, Xu Yan came over.

"Disciple, you came just in time."

Li Xuan pulled the golden sword aside, as if he was a little disgusted, and played with Yu Ruyi in his hand, his eyes full of love for Yu Ruyi.

"Look at this Ruyi jade, which is flawless, gentle and nourishing. As the saying goes, a gentleman likes jade, and a teacher also likes jade. It would be great if we could get a pair of these jade Ruyi."

He looked up at Xu Yan and said, "Disciple, do you understand?"

I thought to myself: Let me find another jade Ruyi for my teacher.

Xu Yan came here excitedly to tell his master that he had made a golden bone and was as good as the geniuses of ancient times.

As a result, Li Xuan was a little disgusted when he saw it, so he pulled the golden sword aside and played with Yu Ruyi in his hand.

He said that a gentleman likes jade and hopes that Yu Ruyi can make a couple.

Xu Yan thought to himself that next time he goes home, he will find another piece of jade for his master.

But suddenly there was a thump in my heart: "No! How could Master tell me at this time that he likes jade?"

"There must be a deeper meaning in Master's words...

"I understand, Master has high expectations for me and hopes that I can make jade bones, so I use jade as a metaphor. Master prefers jade bones to gold bones!

"But Master was afraid that I wouldn't be able to accept the difficulty of tempering jade bones, so he used the metaphor of jade to remind me. If I couldn't understand the deep meaning of Master's words, Master would no longer be so demanding...

"In this case, although Master doesn't say anything, he must be disappointed with me in his heart. If I can't understand the deep meaning of Master's words, Master will also lower his expectations of me, thinking that I don't understand enough to even use such a simple metaphor. not understand!"

Xu Yan thought for a moment and realized that the master wanted to gather a pair of jade bones, but in fact he wanted him to continue refining bones, not to give up, not to back down, and to work hard to make jade bones.

If Li Xuan knew what he was thinking, he would definitely be confused: I just simply want Yu Ruyi!

After Xu Yan thought about it for a while, he thought he had understood the meaning of the master's words, and said firmly: "Master, I understand, I will definitely not let you down!"

Li Xuan showed a satisfied smile: "As long as you understand, I believe in you!"

Xu Yan was deeply moved: "Master has very high expectations for me. He hopes that I can surpass the geniuses of ancient times!"

"Gold bones don't matter, I want to make them into jade bones!"

Xu Yan did not mention the matter of his golden bones again. The master had already understood everything, and the mere golden bones could not get into the eyes of the master!

He practiced again and wanted to continue refining bones, but Xu Yan found that no matter how he circulated his energy and blood or tempered it, it had no effect.

It seems that the golden bone has reached its limit.

It seems that there is an insurmountable chasm that blocks further improvement.

"Master said that jade bones cannot be made by talent, perseverance, or persistence. Those who can become jade bones must either have great luck, be the darling of heaven and earth, or have transcendent understanding and be able to sense the great truth..."

Xu Yan pondered: "I don't know if I have great luck, maybe not; I am the darling of heaven and earth, even less likely. Then there is only one way, and that is understanding...

“Master often said that emphasizing meaning and enlightenment is to make me think that my understanding is not bad, and to remind me where my strengths are.

"If I want to temper jade bones, I can only rely on my understanding."

After thinking about it, Xu Yan's mind once again resurfaced with the two lines of the formula "Keep your mind clear and observe me to cultivate your true intention, and your qi and blood are like a dragon casting a golden body."

"I definitely haven't fully understood the core of these two techniques. If I could understand them clearly, would it be possible to break the shackles of the golden bones and temper the jade bones?"

Xu Yan devoted himself wholeheartedly to the technique. He had no distracting thoughts and abandoned everything. He forgot about things and himself, hoping to understand the deep meaning.

"By the way, when it comes to cultivating the true meaning, I think that if the qi and blood are stored in the bones and in the bone marrow, then we are cultivating the true meaning. But where is the 'meaning'?

"Cultivating the bone marrow is just an introduction, it does not cultivate the intention."

Suddenly, an idea flashed in Xu Yan's mind, and he discovered that he had made a mistake regarding the cultivation of true meaning in the technique.

I have never developed my true intention.

It’s not even clear what ‘meaning’ is.

"The qi and blood are like a dragon casting a golden body. When I refine the gold bones, the qi and blood that circulates are really like a dragon? That is just an empty, empty appearance. How can it be regarded as a dragon without nourishing 'intention'?" Where’s the pliosaur?”

In a daze, Xu Yan felt as if he had touched a barrier.

As long as this barrier is broken, one can fully understand the technique, break through the shackles of the golden bone, and enter the jade bone stage.

However, this barrier has never been broken.

He became a little troubled for a moment.

"Would you like to ask Master for advice?

"No, Master has taught me very clearly that 'meaning' can only be understood by yourself. If you can't express it clearly, I must have missed something..."

In the next three days, Xu Yan was practicing, constantly comprehending the techniques, and always wanted to understand the "true meaning", but he was often just a little short of it.

Still unable to break through the barrier and understand its essence.

Li Xuan looked at his stupid apprentice with some confusion. In the past three days, the stupid apprentice seemed to be a little distracted and occasionally lost his mind.

"It's been so long and you haven't gained anything, so you're at a loss? Do you think you can't do it anymore?"

"I haven't gotten my jade Ruyi yet, how can I stay depressed?"

"Let me think about how to make up some mysterious words to fool him."

Li Xuan fell into deep thought.

On this day, after dinner, when Xu Yan was preparing to put away the dishes, Li Xuan spoke: "Persistence is essential during the journey of cultivation. If you find that you have encountered a bottleneck and there is no progress, you can relax and empty your mind. Thinking, to understand every plant and tree.

"Perceive the nature of the world and capture the hidden inspirations around you. If you can suddenly realize it, the door to martial arts will open.

"Throughout the ages, there are many people who have made no progress in their cultivation and are stuck at the bottleneck and cannot break through. However, they break through the shackles because of a sudden enlightenment."

Li Xuan opened his eyes and told lies, tricking Xu Yan into realizing the so-called inspiration. If he could achieve enlightenment, he would be able to step into the gate of martial arts.

Since ascetic practice is not enough, then go for enlightenment.
