Siheyuan: Me! He Yuzhu defies fate and changes destiny

"Visualization is a method that can help you improve your spiritual power. After reaching the state of Huajin, you will master some basic applications of spiritual power, such as sensing danger. But for those who want to condense the golden elixir, the key is to guide the concentration of the body's essence. Without strong spiritual power to guide, forcibly gathering the body's essence will cause other parts of the body to be deprived of blood and nutrients, eventually causing the function of important organs to decline or even fail. My master may have met with misfortune because of the lack of spiritual support."

Chen Xueru asked in confusion:

"How did you learn this?"

He Yuzhu said:

"Because I have had outstanding spiritual power since I was a child, it is easier for me to form the golden elixir. When I went to Qingfeng Temple to look for the elixir furnace last time, I discussed these issues with Taoist Qingfeng and learned about this from him. Looking back on the whole process, I found that it was indeed the case. But my situation is special, and your spiritual power may not be strong enough. Therefore, I specially created this simplified version of the visualization method. When your spirit can focus on multiple things at the same time, you can smoothly enter the state of forming the golden elixir."

Chen Xueru asked curiously:

"Can you teach me now?"

He Yuzhu nodded, agreed to her request, and began to teach her the Qingxin Jue visualization method that he had carefully simplified and combined with the Qingfeng Temple tradition. Chen Xueru quietly chanted the Qingxin Jue, her mood gradually calmed down, and she began her inner visualization journey.

As time passed, when Chen Xueru finally finished her first visualization experience and woke up, she found that it was dark outside. She couldn't help but exclaimed in astonishment: "Is it so late already?" He Yuzhu smiled and replied:

"That's right, you actually meditated for eight hours this time!"

Chen Xueru says:

“I felt like in a split second, it was over!”

He Yuzhu responded:

"This is the visualization method I created. In the future, practicing this method at night can replace sleeping!" In fact, his so-called visualization method contains the characteristics of deep sleep. Deep sleep can efficiently restore energy in a short period of time. It only takes two hours to restore the energy needed for a day. However, through human intervention, the first two hours are mainly used to restore the mental loss of the day. Then, the excess energy will gradually transform into a higher level of mental power. At first, this power is relatively weak, but with time and practice, it will gradually become powerful and useful.

However, He Yuzhu did not reveal these details to Chen Xueru, but asked her: "How is it, do you think it's good?" Chen Xueru nodded: "It's really good, but practicing it is a bit like an addiction. That kind of vague truth makes me feel unusually comfortable!"

He Yuzhu explained: "That's because your mental strength is not enough. If your mental strength is sufficient, you will be able to understand those profound principles."

After hearing this, Chen Xueru said with some understanding: "I see, no wonder those statements seem to be correct, but I just don't understand their specific meaning."

He Yuzhu continued: "It is about the laws of the world, or the 'Tao' from a Taoist perspective. You are going through a process of enlightenment."

Chen Xueru nodded and said, "I see, it's really amazing!"

At this time, He Hua's voice came from outside the door: "Dad, why don't you cook for me?" He Yuzhu responded with a wry smile: "He Hua and the others are back, I'll go see them now." Chen Xueru also expressed her desire to go together.

As soon as they left the house, He Yuzhu immediately noticed He Hua. When He Hua saw her father, she immediately ran over and threw herself into He Yuzhu's arms, hugging his neck tightly: "Dad, what did you do today? You ignored He Hua!"

He Yuzhu gently lifted her nose and said with a smile: "You kid, Daddy has been observing Mommy's practice today, so he didn't have time to cook. I'll prepare it for you now. You must be starving, right?"

He Hua nodded pitifully: "Yeah, I'm really hungry."

He Yuzhu put her down, said hello to He Xiao and He Yuqing, then went into the kitchen and started working, and soon served the dishes.

Yang Xiaodi and He Yushui returned later. After dinner, He Yuzhu mentioned the importance of refining the golden elixir and a remedy he discovered himself - visualization.

Then, he introduced the specific content of this set of visualization methods in detail. Since He Yuqing had just started to learn and practice, she knew very little about it; He Hua and He Xiao had not yet reached the stage of transformation and had not yet stimulated their spiritual power, He Yuzhu did not teach them directly, but the children listened with great interest.

Especially He Hua, who was simple-minded, was able to understand the essence of it very quickly. The rest of the adults needed to use the Heart Purification Mantra as an aid to master the entry. That night, everyone successfully entered the Dao without exception.

With a strong mentor like He Yuzhu, any difficulties on the road of spiritual practice become easy to overcome for these newcomers. And for He Yuzhu himself, all this is just another small step in his spiritual journey.

He didn't even close his eyes the whole night, and kept a close eye on them, worrying about any problems they might have. Although he felt quite safe, nothing could be known until the situation became clear. The next day, Yang Xiaodi seemed particularly excited, hugged He Yuzhu tightly, and cheered loudly...

"My dear, this is amazing. In the past, no matter how much I rested, I couldn't recover. I just woke up and felt relaxed from head to toe...

I didn’t feel tired physically before, but I was always mentally exhausted.

However, this time, even though I don’t know if my mental strength has increased, I do feel more relaxed than ever before!”

Seeing Yang Xiaodi like this, He Yuzhu said:

"Indeed, try to hold on for a while longer. If your mental state improves, then I can give you a pill to try and prepare to enter the Dan Embrace stage!"

After hearing what He Yuzhu said, Yang Xiaodi nodded and responded:

"Okay, since there is a risk, we should be extra cautious!"

Yang Xiaodi feels very satisfied now. He doesn't want such a happy life to end prematurely for any reason.

Faced with the choice between survival and longevity, people will undoubtedly choose the former. He Yuzhu agreed with Yang Xiaodi’s view and said:

"That's right, lie down for a while, I'll make you some breakfast."

When breakfast was ready, He Yuzhu was surprised to see He Hua coming out with a radiant face. He said:

"Hey, He Hua, why are you so refreshed today?"

He Hua smiled mischievously and said:

"Hey, it's a secret!"

He Yuzhu guessed that it was due to the good sleep he had last night, so he didn't ask any further questions.
