Chapter 277: Far from the Tower

Of course, Xiao Xiu'er's promotion has nothing to do with that Heavenly Monarch, but that Heavenly Monarch did set his sights on Annan, and had a considerable degree of intersection with Annan.

At this moment, he was holding the second round of the Qingyun Road in his hand, and opposite him, Xu Yishan was sitting.

The two look not like master and apprentice, but like brothers.

Well, Xu Yishan is like a brother, and the other side is like a brother.

However, the "brother" is very restrained, and the "brother" is very free.

And after reading the script, the young man was silent for a long time.

Xu Yishan is not surprised, because after he watched it before, he also reacted the same.

Moreover, he felt that it was normal for any cultivator in the world to have such a reaction after reading this book. - If it's not a similar reaction, it's not normal!

After a long time, the young man, that is, Mo Tiankui, finally took his somewhat dull gaze away from the script, and then sighed softly.

"Yishan, how did I teach you when you first started?" asked Mo Tiankui.

Xu Yishan smiled at the corner of his mouth, with respect and admiration on his face, and then said: "Master, you let me know what 'Yishan' is." ”

"Actually, I'm just teaching you to focus. Mo Tiankui smiled, "Focus, as long as you keep focusing, no matter what you do, the result will not be too bad." ”

Speaking of this, Mo Tiankui's words changed, "But it's just not too bad." There are many things, just focus, is not enough, far from enough. ”

"For example, practice. ”

Xu Yishan nodded.

He should have the most feelings about this, because he has been witnessing it for the past two hundred years.

In the family, there are many peers, elders, and juniors, and those who focus do not know how many.

But cultivation is not just about concentration.

Pretty much focused.

Some have not even broken through the condensation realm in their lifetime, and have turned into a piece of loess early.

One of Xu Yishan's cousins is like this, when he was a child, this cousin often played behind his ass, and a hundred years later, sitting in front of her grave, he could only sprinkle a glass of water and wine, and then be speechless.

Some just stop at the pulse.

When I was a child, a cousin was praised by many elders for being good, but what surprised people later was that this cousin couldn't break through to the realm of enlightenment despite all the tosses, so that his family became a laughing stock in the clan. Of course, no one laughs to their faces.

Later, the cousin married and had children, and took over several shops in the clan.

Some have reached enlightenment, but they have also stopped at enlightenment for life, failing to break through the limits of human land.

There are many, many such people in the clan.

Why many, many, many?

If you talk about it now, because this is the biggest "life" of the people in their family.

Those who stop at condensing are too poor in talent.

Those who stop at the pulse are still not talented.

But no matter how talented they are, with the inheritance and resources of the family, it is impossible to not even be able to mix up with an enlightenment realm.

And stop at enlightenment......

Although it still has something to do with talent, in fact, it doesn't have much to do with it.

Something else, instead of focus, instead of talent, becomes the main determining factor.

And after breaking through the human level and coming to the ground level, he still faces that problem.

Many, many cultivators in Annam County, such as Gu Huaimin and others, are like this.

Focus?

As the Master said, this is just the beginning of the teachings, and it is the first step on the path of spiritual practice.

But this road is more than one step.

It's not just two or three steps.

It's ten steps, a hundred steps, a thousand steps, ten thousand steps......

Thinking about the content of the second chapter of the Qingyun Road, and then thinking about the first one, Xu Yishan probably knew why the master said this.

But then, to Xu Yishan's surprise, the master did not immediately mention the things in this second round, but told him something about the cultivation world.

"Yishan, the earth under our feet, it's actually not flat, it's round, you know?" asked Mo Tiankui.

"I know, when I was a child, there was a teaching in the family school. Xu Yishan nodded.

"There is a mountain in Annam, and you must have climbed to the top more than once. The top of a larger mountain is actually flat, so even on the top of the mountain, sometimes you only see flat land, just like the ground under our feet. ”

Xu Yishan nodded again, indicating that he really understood what the master said, and he really understood that the ground under his feet was round and not flat.

Mo Tiankui made a move, and on the top of the rockery in this small courtyard, a stone flew over, adjusted to a circle in the process, and then landed on the table between the two like a feather.

Mo Tiankui stretched out his hand and used his little finger to draw a zigzag line on the stone ball.

"This is the southern continent where we are located. Mo Tiankui pointed to the lower part of the ball, which was roughly divided into upper and lower parts by the line.

"Master, there are two continents in the world, the north and the south, and our South Continent is much smaller than the North Continent?" Xu Yishan asked.

The line is not in the middle of the ball, but below, and the area divided by the circle that circles the ball is only about one-third of the ball.

"The situation over there, the teacher is not very clear. Mo Tiankui shook his head, "I haven't gone out of my way to find out." ”

Xu Yishan nodded.

I didn't understand it because I didn't need it.

The cultivator's vision, speaking of which, is very narrow and narrow, as far as he is concerned, if it weren't for the hundred years he has been in charge of Annan, there are too many things, and he doesn't know.

And throughout the entire Annan, Nanzhou, and even the country of Kun, there may not be a few people who know "Nanzhou".

Within the territory of the Kun country, it is divided into five states, east, west, south, north and middle, but this is only the division within the territory of the Kun country. And the monks of the Kun Kingdom, or non-monks, know these divisions enough, even if they know the situation outside, it is useless.

The vast majority of them will not take a step out of the country in their lifetime.

So, even if you know what's going on outside, what's the use?

Especially for cultivators, useless things are all burdens.

With so much thought about cumbersomeness, how much do you still have to pay attention to your practice?

Mo Tiankui stretched out his hand again, and pressed the part of Nanzhou that was drawn on the stone ball, thumb, and it was a pit when he pressed it.

In different positions, he pressed a total of five pits.

"These are the five spiritual realms of our southern continent, which are also called the five holy places according to the more common saying in the cultivation world. Mo Tiankui pointed to the five pits and said, "The location may not be very accurate, but it is probably like this." ”

Xu Yishan nodded.

Mo Tiankui stretched out his little finger again, and not far from one of the pits, he clicked out a small dot.

"This is our country. ”

Knowing the Kun Kingdom, the pit on the edge of the Kun Country is obviously the holy land of Dayao Mountain, looking at the distance between the two almost next to each other, and then looking at the distance between the five pits, Xu Yishan couldn't help but speak, "Master, Nanzhou is so big!"

"It's not huge. Mo Tiankui pointed to the line drawn earlier, "It is said that the circumference of this continent line is about 140,000 miles. ”

Speaking of this, Mo Tiankui had a smile in his eyes, and also carried some memories, "This line, among many Heavenly Rank monks, also has a common name, called 'Heavenly Rank Patrol Line'. ”

"Throughout the ages, many monks in Nanzhou, after becoming the heavenly steps, will walk this line alone or in two or three together, and the opposite side of this line is the sea, so it is called the 'sea patrol line'. ”

"Master, can't you see the continent opposite?" Xu Yishan asked curiously.

"Even if you climb to the top of your eyes, you can see all the ocean. Mo Tiankui said.

"Actually, it's not just the ocean. Mo Tiankui said, "On the patrol line, there are many locations, and you can also see places near or far sea, with large and small islands. ”

"I have been on several islands when I was a teacher. ”

"The islands in the sea, whether uninhabited or not, are in a similar situation, but they are not to be seen, and there is no aura. ”

"However, the taste of all kinds of marine fish is quite delicious, better than that of land. ”
