Chapter 71

Su Junyu said to Wu Shiqin: "And you, your heart-holding is completely unqualified."

Wu Shiqin was not good with words. She glared at Su Junyu angrily, demanding an explanation.

Su Junyu said: "I'll be straightforward. Cultivation techniques can influence one's nature, and conversely, one's nature can also influence cultivation techniques. Try to use the power of Heavenly Song."

Wu Shiqin didn't waste words. She extended her right hand and created a blue electric arc in her palm, which crackled continuously.

"Although you solved that problem, it doesn't mean you have mastered Heavenly Song," Su Junyu frowned. "You can't even control your own power well. The foundation of the Heavenly Song technique is the Heavenly Song Heavenly Elements and the Heavenly Song Changing Elements. These four Heavenly Elements and four Changing Elements encompass all aspects of light, heat, electricity, and magnetism. In the principles of the universe, Heavenly Song holds an equally important position as the three fundamental principles of elemental power. This is also the foundation of the Great Cultivator, Mace Wei, who achieved enlightenment through the unification of all techniques."

As he spoke, Su Junyu pointed at Wu Shiqin again: "Look, what have you made of this technique? Is there any difference from ordinary lightning techniques?"

Wu Shiqin said: "At least among those my age, I haven't seen anyone stronger than me."

Su Junyu said: "Wang Qi, you also practice Heavenly Song, right?"

Wang Qi nodded.

Su Junyu said: "Let her see."

Wang Qi extended his right hand, and a bright blue light circle appeared on it. The light circle spun rapidly, emitting a buzzing sound.

Su Junyu threw the iron pot Wu Shiqin had brought to Wang Qi. The pot accelerated mid-air and crashed towards Wang Qi. Wang Qi punched it away.

"Power transformed into light, electromagnetic unification, this is the true form of Heavenly Song power," Su Junyu said. "Your practice can't even bring out one-tenth of the technique's wonders."

Wu Shiqin glared at Wang Qi with hatred and said: "I admit I'm not as good as him..."

Wang Qi grinned and added: "No need to be ashamed."

Wu Shiqin glared at Wang Qi again and continued: "But I should be better than most people."

"You are just wasting your talent. When others catch up in their mathematical skills, you will only fall behind gradually."

Mao Zimiao's voice was a bit timid: "Senior Brother Su, what exactly should our heart-holding be... and how do we cultivate it?"

Hearing Mao Zimiao's question, Su Junyu's expression softened. He thought for a moment and smiled: "Alright, I'll explain heart-holding to you little ones."

Deciding to help his junior brothers and sisters, Su Junyu moved closer to the campfire. The other four also gathered around.

Su Junyu first asked Wu Shiqin: "Have you thought about the 'joy of seeking the Dao' and 'the joy of the joy of seeking the Dao' that I mentioned before?"

Wu Shiqin shook her head. Su Junyu continued: "Do you at least know what the current cultivation techniques aim for?"

Wu Shiqin nodded: "To seek the Dao of heaven and earth, to illuminate the breath of heaven and earth."

"Very good. The current techniques gather celestial energy through the breath of heaven and earth without harming it, instead strengthening it. This means we are in a symbiotic relationship with heaven and earth. You all know this." Su Junyu continued: "Wu Fan, do you know how we align ourselves with the breath of heaven and earth?"

"Yes, it's about exploring the great Dao..." Wu Fan was a bit nervous: "The breath of heaven and earth is the flow of spiritual energy between all things. Studying the laws of all things is studying the breath of heaven and earth."

Su Junyu nodded in approval: "Exactly. This is the next level, the Dao follows nature, and harmony between heaven and man. The transcendent Dao, which you will encounter after breaking through to the Great Master level, I won't mention now. Wang Qi, you have practiced ancient techniques. What do you think is the greatest advantage of the current techniques over the ancient ones?"

Wang Qi's face showed disdain: "Wasn't this taught by the lecturers on the first day of school? Why not just say what you want to recall?"

Su Junyu laughed: "Atmosphere, atmosphere. I'm setting the right learning atmosphere."

"It's just that the current techniques connect with the breath of heaven and earth, while the ancient techniques are always in a state of isolation."

Su Junyu said: "Exactly. The foundation of the current techniques lies in 'enlightenment.' The deeper your understanding of the great Dao, the stronger your connection with the breath of heaven and earth. For me, I practice the Phase Universe Heavenly Position Technique, hold the Bai Ze Calculation, and understand the Dao of calculation. To me, a good calculation problem is better than any immortal elixir."

A good calculation problem is a profound understanding of the Dao, and such an understanding surpasses any elixir or magical medicine.

Su Junyu cleared his throat: "Ahem, I digressed. In short, all current cultivation techniques must focus on seeking the Dao. The heart-holding of current cultivators is the heart-holding of seekers."

Wu Shiqin murmured: "Seeking the Dao..."

Seeing that the other three, except Wang Qi, were somewhat unconvinced, Su Junyu said: "Hey, do you think this heart-holding is easy?"

Mao Zimiao replied: "Senior Brother Su, the axioms in the textbook are actually quite interesting!"

Su Junyu first smiled and praised her: "That's a good attitude." Then his expression changed, and he sneered: "But what if you had to start from zero, derive these axioms step by step from nothing?"

Mao Zimiao was speechless.

"Don't think this heart-holding is easy. In our Myriad Laws Sect, about 1,500 years ago, in the generation after the Elemental Power Senior, two geniuses emerged and stood side by side."

"One was named Galangri, the future 'Sword Madman,' and the other was named Apuna, today's 'Bai Ze Divine Lord.'"

Mentioning the name of the Bai Ze Divine Lord, Su Junyu smiled with pride: "My ancestor was a disciple of the Bai Ze Divine Lord's disciple. If I break through to the Great Master level, I can also join the Divine Lord's sect. Thinking about it, I am quite qualified to tell this story."

"The Divine Lord loves fame and glory, enjoys showing off, and acts without regard for trivialities, or, to put it bluntly, is quite, quite shameless. Galangri, on the other hand, was more refined and courteous in his dealings with others."

Wu Shiqin asked doubtfully: "Is the story going to end with the Sword Madman achieving enlightenment first, while the Bai Ze Divine Lord's cultivation stagnates for a long time, then repents and focuses on the Dao, and finally achieves enlightenment?"

This story tells us... Wang Qi couldn't help but think.

Su Junyu shook his head: "No. The two achieved enlightenment only a few years apart, and the Divine Lord is still the same today. There was no repentance."

"Then what is it?"

"That happened after they achieved enlightenment."

For some reason, Su Junyu's tone became heavy: "After achieving enlightenment, Galangri gradually lost interest in mathematics, his heart-holding was corrupted, and his cultivation has long stagnated. Of the former twin stars, only the Divine Lord remains active in the realm of immortals."

"Even Great Cultivators may not be able to maintain this heart-holding."
