Chapter 20 The golden bones are not in the eyes of the master, I will make them into jade bones

 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 and made entirely of gold. It is extremely valuable.

The jade Ruyi is engraved with auspicious cloud patterns, and the whole body is flawless. At first glance, it is carved from the best jade. In terms of value, it is probably higher than the gold sword.

"Although this golden sword is of high value, no matter how I look at it, I think the jade Ruyi is more valuable and rarer.

"Look at the texture of this jade. It is flawless and crystal clear. It feels warm and moist when you touch it in your hand... I prefer this jade Ruyi to the golden sword.

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

"I've already been deceived anyway, so I don't care. Why don't you just defraud 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 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.

"You see, this Ruyi jade is flawless, gentle and nourishing. As the saying goes, a gentleman likes jade, and a teacher also likes jade. It would be great if this jade Ruyi comes as a pair."

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

He said that a gentleman likes jade and hopes that jade will be able to get a couple together.

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 that 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 was apparently trying to get a pair of jade bones together, but in reality 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 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!

Practicing again and wanting to continue refining bones, 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 like there is an insurmountable chasm that blocks further improvement.

"Master said that jade bones can be made not by talent, perseverance and perseverance. 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 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 sentences of the formula "Keep your mind in mind and cultivate your true intention, and your energy 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, with no distracting thoughts in his mind. He threw away everything, forgetting both things and myself, 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, that means 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, and does not contain the 'intention' of the dragon. How can it be regarded as a dragon?"

Where is 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.

"Do you want to ask Master for advice?

"No, Master has taught me very clearly. You can only understand the 'meaning' 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 often fell short just a little bit.

Still unable to break through the barrier and understand the 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 said: "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 have been many people who have made little progress in their cultivation and were stuck at a bottleneck and could not break through. However, once they had a sudden enlightenment, they broke through the shackles."

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.
