Chapter 41: The Old Man's Fear

Qiao Yuan didn't say anything more, and stepped directly on the boulder, but this time he only lasted for a stick of incense before being washed into the deep pool by the waterfall.

Old man Zhan sat cross-legged on the shore, and when he saw this scene, he didn't speak, but just tilted his head slightly to signal Qiao Yuan to continue.

He didn't say anything, climbed ashore and started the trial again, stepping on the boulder again and again, being washed into the pool again and again, until the fifth time, Qiao Yuan suddenly entered a strange state.

The water splashed slowly in his eyes, and the water slammed into his arm, and immediately splashed in all directions and scattered into countless small droplets.

Qiao Yuan stared at one of the small droplets of water and took a closer look, only to see that it hit a larger droplet in the process of splashing.

The two water droplets fused together in an instant, and the fused water droplets hit a water column in the process of falling, and disappeared into the water column without struggle and dispersion.

The water column fell rapidly, hitting the boulder directly, and under the impact, the water splashed and finally merged into the deep pool.

The changes in this scene clearly fell in Qiao Yuan's eyes, infinite evolution and circulation, Qiao Yuan only felt that his brain was blank, only countless pictures of water splashes were scattered and fused, and in the end, he already thought that he was a water droplet, wanting to integrate and disperse.

Old man Zhan was sitting cross-legged on the shore with his eyes closed, and at the moment when Qiao Yuan entered a strange state, Old Man Zhan's eyes opened suddenly, his eyes burst out with a monstrous essence, and he even had a look of disbelief, his lips moved lightly and squeezed out a few words, and his face was full of shock.

"This ...... This...... This is...... How is it possible to sink into the state of the heart?"

After Old Man Zhan finished speaking, an extremely powerful coercion spread out from his body, directly sweeping around, but it was precisely controlled by him within a zhang of his body, his clothes were violent, and the grass on the ground seemed to be pressed on the ground by an invisible force.

As soon as the coercion came out, the old man Zhan's eyes flashed, and then his face showed ecstasy.

"Haha...... Sure enough, it's a state of contemplation. Good, good, worthy of the old man's choice. ”

Qiao Yuan didn't hold on for long, and the feeling that he was a drop of water in his heart became stronger and stronger, until this feeling reached the extreme, and Qiao Yuan directly turned his head and planted into the waterhole along the current.

The surging tide ran down Qiao Yuan's nose and into his body, and Qiao Yuan immediately woke up, and after surfing the water, he coughed again and again, coughing up several mouthfuls of water.

"Xiaoyuan, come up quickly, let the old man take a good look. ”

Qiao Yuan had just surfaced, coughed up a few mouthfuls of water, his eyes were still foggy, and he heard an extremely kind and soft voice before he could see the surrounding situation clearly.

He wiped the drops of water from his face in an instant, and looked at the old man Zhan who was squatting on the shore with a kind smile.

"Huh...... Grandpa Zhan, what's wrong?"

Qiao Yuan pulled the corners of his mouth, revealing an extremely ugly smile, and asked after a dry laugh.

"Come up quickly, and let the old man take a good look at you. ”

Old man Zhan didn't explain, he still looked kind and soft.

Qiao Yuan was helpless, so he had to slowly climb ashore with an extremely reluctant look.

As soon as he landed on the shore, before he could stand firmly, Old Man Zhan stretched out his black right hand and grabbed it directly on his wrist, and a shocking coercion burst out, but it was well restrained on the surface of Old Man Zhan's body, and did not spread to Qiao Yuan's body, otherwise it would be difficult to resist with his cultivation.

Qiao Yuan was grabbed by the wrist of the old man Zhan, and he only felt that there was a strong wind howling in front of him, this wind was extremely strong, as if his body was about to be torn apart by this wind if he got closer.

He felt a warm current in the old man's hand running down his wrist and up and down his body, from his hands to his chest, divided into two streams, one from his chest to his head, one from his chest to his feet, and finally converged at the dantian.

When this warm current was about to enter the dantian, it suddenly stopped, and it stopped motionless outside the dantian, and Qiao Yuan even faintly felt that this warm current trembled in his body.

It's a strange feeling, hard to describe, but it's clear to be perceived.

After a cup of tea, the warm current quickly turned around and returned from his wrist to the old man's body.

However, at the moment when Old Man Zhan let go of Qiao Yuan's wrist, he directly took three steps back, and sat on the ground all of a sudden, his face showing a monstrous look of fear and horror, cold sweat flowed on his forehead, and his back was instantly wet with sweat.

There was a look of fear in his eyes, and there was a deep sense of remorse.

"Grandpa Zhan, what's wrong with you?"

Qiao Yuan was also frightened when he saw the old man Zhan, and hurriedly walked to his side, raising his hand to help him, but he was quickly dodged away, and the look he looked at Qiao Yuan was no longer the same kind as looking at the juniors, but showing awe and fear.

He saw that Old Man Zhan was looking at him with a wrong expression, and guessed in his heart that Old Man Zhan had discovered the seal in his body and was frightened into this appearance.

After thinking about it for a while, Qiao Yuan was very sure that Old Man Zhan should have been frightened by the seal, and he secretly rejoiced in his heart, after all, he was still the first person to scare a Yuanying Cultivator into such a Qi Refining Cultivator.

Although Qiao Yuan thought so, Old Man Zhan didn't see the seal, how could he find the seal with his cultivation.

Xiao Fengqing and the black cat had both said that the seal in Qiao Yuan's body was extremely secretive, and only a monk with great supernatural powers or a monk who was extremely proficient in the art of sealing could detect it, and it was naturally impossible for a Yuanying monk to find out.

What Old Man Zhan saw in Qiao Yuan's body, I'm afraid only he knows.

"Grandpa Zhan, did you see something? Don't worry......

Qiao Yuan wanted to go up and explain to Old Man Zhan, although he wouldn't take the initiative to tell about the seal, he didn't want Old Man Zhan to be afraid of him all the time.

As soon as he was halfway through his words, he took a step towards him, and the old man Zhan seemed to be avoiding snakes and scorpions, and directly turned into a gust of wind and galloped away in the distance, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Qiao Yuan immediately froze in place when he saw this scene, shook his head with a wry smile, and continued to start the trial.

Not long after he tried it, Zhan Yao and Bai Yue came over, Zhan Yao had been watching from the shore, and Bai Yue also jumped into the water to try.

Stepping on the boulder again and again, being washed into the deep pool again and again, after a day of trial, basically once every three times, you can enter the state of deep heart.

This state of contemplation is very different from the state of contemplation when Qiao Yuan chopped firewood on the surface, but the essence is the same.

It is through constant experimentation and continuous realization, the mind is extremely focused on one thing, abandoning all the interference from the outside world, and finally the mind is only left with what it does.

When a person devotes more than eighty percent of his mind to this, then he basically enters the state of contemplation.

At this time, Qiao Yuan almost put ten percent of his mind into the trial, and even he felt that he was a drop of water, this realm could almost be regarded as stepping out of the realm of Shen Xin, but Qiao Yuan didn't know it.

After a few hours, the sky darkened, Qiao Yuan called Bai Yue, and followed Zhan Yao back to the bamboo house.

After Qiao Yuan had eaten, he found that Old Man Zhan was no longer here, and after asking Zhan Yao, he found out that Old Man Zhan had hurriedly come back to explain to her before, and then returned to the valley, and asked Qiao Yuan not to look for him again.

"Brother Qiao, what's wrong with grandpa? Why didn't you go to him?"

Zhan Yao's big eyes revealed doubt, and he stood beside Qiao Yuan with his hands behind his back, and asked seriously.

"Maybe Grandpa Zhan wants to go back fishing, and he's afraid that I'll disturb him. He has already told me to try it well, and after a while, he will come to me. ”

Qiao Yuan touched his nose, a little embarrassed, and with a smile on his face, he casually made up a reason to prevaricate.

When it got dark, Qiao Yuan and Bai Yue returned to the house and began to cultivate again.

Early the next morning, Qiao Yuan came to the waterfall again to start a new day's trial.

He persevered under the waterfall for longer and longer, and the time he spent in the state of meditation became longer and longer, and his observation of water droplets became more and more nuanced.

This trial was carried out day after day, until the tenth day, Qiao Yuan's observation of water droplets had reached the point of extreme detail, and he could see the internal structure of almost every drop of water droplets.

When Qiao Yuan looked at the internal structure of the clear water beads, he actually found a faint aura in it, which was almost undetectable. If he hadn't entered such a deep contemplation realm like Qiao Yuan, it would have been impossible for ordinary people to find a trace of aura contained in the water droplets.

At this time, although Qiao Yuan found the aura in the water droplets, he did not show his surprise, because he felt that he was just like these water droplets, and even the aura in these water droplets he felt that it was something in his body.

An hour later, Qiao Yuan fell into the waterhole, and after climbing ashore, he did not go to the trial again, but sat on the shore and carefully thought about how he felt after entering the state of contemplation.

Five days ago, Qiao Yuan had to reminisce every time he exited the Sinking Heart Realm, and then summarize the feelings in his heart and the differences in them.

He sat cross-legged on the shore, his eyes slowly closed, his mind sinking into the memories, searching for the experience he had just experienced.

In this way, a tea time passed, Qiao Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, there was a flash of essence in his eyes, opened and closed his lips and whispered to himself, thought for a while, and then showed a look of ecstasy on his face, stood up and laughed.

"There is aura in the droplets. I see...... Ha ha...... I see...... I know how to pass the trial, haha......"

After Qiao Yuan finished laughing, his eyes showed a look of confidence, and with a look of ecstasy, he took a few steps back, ran forward and stepped directly on the boulder, and started the trial again.
