So Xu Chen privately asked Wang Shen to understand, but Wang Shen asked him about his recent cultivation progress.

Xu Chen said a little strangely: "You said that I was seasick, how can I calm down and cultivate, and wait until I get to the country of Jianying." ”

"No!" Wang Shen said very seriously, "From tonight onwards, you have to continue to cultivate!"

"Why are you in such a hurry, anyway, we don't have any enemies looking for trouble now, what are you doing like this!"

Wang Shen put away the fishing rod, pulled Xu Chen into the cabin where they were resting, then covered the door, and whispered: "If you don't cultivate, it's too late, even if it's temporary, you have to force me to cultivate." ”

"Do you have a premonition that something bad is happening?" Xu Chen sensed a hint of uneasiness in his tone.

"Yes. Wang Shen pointed to the poor floating corpses outside the window and said, "I suspect that the last moments of these guys were not shipwrecked. ”

"It's not a shipwreck, it's a pirate?"

"I said you don't even think about what you say!" Wang Shen complained to him and said, "What kind of place is the country of Guiying, where pirates dare to rob around here? Even if they are robbed by pirates, why are those chests full of jewels not robbed, but let them drift on the sea, leaving these sailors to make a fortune?"

Wang Shen is right, the country has been advocating force since ancient times, most of the people in the country are keen on cultivation, adult men are basically qualified warriors, those pirates who sail on the sea and make a living by robbing dare to provoke this brave and warlike nation, the king would have sent troops to exterminate them.

Xu Chen heard others talk about the situation in the country of detainees, so he naturally understood this truth, so he asked, "Then what do you say is going on?"

"I suspect they have encountered a monster in the sea, or a youkai that has been cultivating for thousands of years. ”

Hearing Wang Shen say this, Xu Chen realized that none of the floating corpses on the sea were intact, and after a careful observation for a while, these wrecks really seemed to have been bitten into several pieces by some huge monster with its teeth.

However, Xu Chen calmed down and thought about it, and still noticed something strange from Wang Shen's words, so he asked again: "If it was done by the monster, why didn't it eat these people, but bite them to pieces?"

"It seems that you don't know much about the demon clan!" Wang Shen sneered, and then said: "There are many kinds ......of monsters, some are kind by nature and never harm others, they have always hidden in the deep mountains and old forests to cultivate and do not set foot in the red dust;

"But they still want to eat people, you see so many floating corpses floating on the sea, you must know that no matter how ferocious the monsters are, they can't let go of the rare opportunity to eat well. ”

"But have you ever thought about it, some monsters have lived in the world longer than human history, and what does he need to do to eat people? It is completely for pleasure in killing living beings! Because in the eyes of these old demons, human beings are simply toys when he is bored. ”

"Uncle Wang, don't scare me, are we about to meet such a powerful monster?" This time it was Xu Chen's turn to panic, and he said in a trembling voice: "You also said that it is a monster that has only cultivated for thousands of years, and I see that he has only cultivated for thousands of years, and I think that he will not be able to add a few more zeros to the number of years he has cultivated!"

"Hehe, are you scared?"

"It's not a question of whether we're afraid or not, it's that we don't have a chance to beat him at all!"

"That's why I told you to hurry up and cultivate!"

"Does this little time work, even if the God King comes, fighting with such an old demon, I'm afraid that I will also suffer, how can I have such a powerful ability. ”

"Don't talk about uselessness, do you want to jump into the sea and swim back to Yanzhou now?"

"It's just a joke! Although I am cultivating the water system divine method of Chongwu Mountain, this is not a small river or a small river, but a vast ocean, and if I want to swim back, I am afraid that it will be more difficult than climbing to the sky. ”

"So we can only be a dead horse and a live horse doctor, and the more you improve your cultivation, the more hope you have of surviving. ”

Although this matter is a little unreliable, it can only be done like this, Xu Chen meditated cross-legged on the bed that night, and entered the cultivation state wholeheartedly.

But after cultivating for a long time, Xu Chen was frustrated to find that it was still the same as when he was in Bright Moon Villa, whenever he wanted to break through the obstacles in the meridians, his true qi would become as cold as ice, almost freezing all the acupoints in his body.

If such a situation occurs, then there will be no way for one's own water aura to form a large and small cycle in the body, and the progress of cultivation will be sluggish as a result.

Xu Chen didn't know that this was actually a normal phenomenon encountered during the cultivation process. A few days ago, his cultivation journey was relatively smooth, because he had suffered many adventures, and there was always someone to guide him at critical moments, so he was able to climb up smoothly and jump from an apprentice who did not enter the stream to a god general of the second layer of the Void Refining Realm.

At the same time, Xu Chen also ignored a key factor, that is, his current cultivation realm was not very powerful.

Cultivation has always been more difficult the higher you reach the advanced realm, and the time to break through after that is correspondingly longer and longer.

But now that he encountered a little setback, Xu Chen began to panic, thinking that his cultivation had reached a bottleneck, at this moment his temples were constantly beating, and the cold was constantly coming, causing his brain to be extremely groggy, Xu Chen felt that he was about to doze off.

He was afraid that if he continued to cultivate, he would go mad, so he had to stand up in disappointment and prepare to go to bed.

Wang Shen, who was sleeping on the next bed, had been observing Xu Chen's cultivation progress, and now seeing him so deflated, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Why, I'm used to living a comfortable life, and now I can't afford to endure hardships in my cultivation?"

"Not really. Xu Chen sighed and explained the obstacles encountered in his cultivation to Wang Shen.

After listening to this, Wang Shen replied disapprenously: "I still think it's a problem, it turns out that you retreated after the slightest setback!"

"What you said is easy, and it's not that you're cultivating!" Xu Chen's eyes lit up as soon as he complained, and he hurriedly ran to Wang Shen's bedside and said, "Uncle Wang, do you have any way to solve the problem I'm encountering now?"

When he was in Mingyue Villa, Wang Shen had specially asked someone to tell him that he was teaching a shortcut in cultivation, no matter how stupid he was, he now understood that since Wang Shen dared to say such a big thing, he must have a solution in his heart.

"Hey, hey. Wang Shen stretched his waist and said leisurely: "Why don't you think about it without using your brain, why haven't others encountered this situation?"

"I don't know, if I did, I wouldn't have to ask you. ”

"This situation is due to the fact that you have cultivated the Chongwu Mountain and Water System Spell. ”

"Uncle Wang, what you said made me more and more confused, there are so many uncles and uncles in the Divine Mountain, their magic cultivation is much more powerful than mine, why doesn't anyone say that they have encountered similar problems?"

Seeing his ignorant look, Wang Shen couldn't help but laugh, so he turned his face and said, "How do you know that people haven't encountered it?" It's just that others are much smarter than you, and after three or five days, you will realize the mystery in it, and you will naturally be able to break through this predicament." Only you are blindly reckless and do not know how to be flexible, of course, you can't reach it if you want to hurry. ”

Xu Chen knew that he had a way to crack it, so he hurriedly bowed his head and begged Wang Shen for advice.

"How can you be so unproductive, but you are just begging for people like this in the Refining Void Realm, so if you mix up to the god king level in the future, won't you have to kowtow thousands of heads?"

Xu Chen replied: "If you don't understand, you don't understand, I won't pretend, Wang Boken pointed me out, it's too late for me to be grateful, and I should give you a big salute." ”

Wang Shen laughed and said: "You kid, you are better than others in all kinds of things, you must know that there are only one or two top geniuses in thousands of years, since your ability is not good, you should not be ashamed to ask questions in cultivation, pretending to be cool and not allowing your mana to increase greatly." ”

"So, Uncle Wang is willing to teach me?" Xu Chen was overjoyed.

"Since I have taught you once, of course I will not hesitate to teach you again. Wang Shen motioned for Xu Chen to sit on the edge of the bed, and then asked him: "Have you heard the story of Dayu's water control?"

"I've heard it, I can recite it. This is not an exaggeration, Master Nangong Muyang has told this story to Xu Chen at least dozens of times before, and he remembers that the melon is ripe.

"Then let me ask you, why did Dayu's father Kun fail to control the water?"

"That's because when he saw that there was a flood there, he went to that place and built an embankment to stop it from flooding. But what Kun didn't expect was that he was facing a great flood that was rare in 10,000 years, which could not be stopped by manpower alone, and finally the flood broke the embankment that Kun had painstakingly built, and ran rampant on the earth, causing the people to suffer a catastrophe. ”

"That's right, how did Dayu succeed?"

King Dayu learned the lesson of his father's failure and changed the policy of water control from blocking to sparse. He dredged the river according to the water potential, so that the flood water could flow smoothly down and finally reach the ocean, thus resolving this human catastrophe. ”

"It seems that you know this story very well, why don't you understand it, the problems you are currently encountering in cultivation can also be solved in a similar way?"

"Uncle Wang, why did you tie cultivation with Dayu's water control?" Xu Chen still didn't quite understand.

"You are studying the water spell in the Five Elements, and when you cultivate, you feel cold and unbearable in your body, this is the external reaction of the water aura attribute, why do you need to make a fuss!"

Xu Chen was about to ask him why he hadn't encountered this strange phenomenon when he was cultivating before, but Wang Shen opened his words again: "In the past, your cultivation was low, and the power of the water aura in your body was not significant, so you didn't feel much. But now it's different, you've arrived at the Void Refining Realm, and the water aura stored in your body is getting thicker and thicker, and its power is also manifesting accordingly, so it's not surprising to have this feeling. ”

"If you forcibly suppress the attributes of the water aura itself now, how can you succeed! This is like Kun using the strategy of blocking to block the flood, can you not fail in the end? What you have to do now is to conform to the attributes of the water aura, channel it into your own dantian, slowly absorb it and convert it into energy and store it in various acupoints in the body, and then repeatedly cultivate in a cycle to reach the next realm. ”

Wang Shen knew that Xu Chen was inferior to others in terms of comprehension, so he explained the truth in great detail, so as not to let Xu Chen understand the wrong meaning and go the wrong way.

After listening to Wang Shen's words, Xu Chen suddenly realized that he was an impatient person, and after thanking Wang Shen again and again, he went back to cultivation.
