Chapter 49: Never Back Down

Linjiang City stands near the sea.

There are several rivers running around, irrigating the soil, and then dividing into countless tributaries, and finally, all flowing into the sea.

Therefore, river transportation was popular in Linjiang in ancient times.

Nowadays, it has convenient transportation and is a hub for surrounding cities. Its commerce and tourism industries are both very well developed, close to first-tier cities.

The wide roads lead to all directions.

There is a constant stream of dense traffic and a large number of people constantly walking through the streets, busy with their own affairs.

Even the era of spiritual practice has begun.

But people still have to live, they still need to work to earn money and support their families, and then they can do the so-called exercise and move towards an extraordinary era.

The changes of the times do not happen overnight.

It takes time to slowly change people's way of thinking and living habits.

Unless something extremely large happens.

In this way, we force people to change their mindsets.

Zhou Yan walked slowly among the crowd, looking around from time to time, walking and stopping, staring in one direction and making comments.

The strange thing is, no matter how strange his behavior is.

It was as if everyone on the entire street ignored Zhou Yan. No one even glanced at him for a moment.

It seemed that Zhou Yan was ignored.

“The changes in people’s hearts are nothing more than joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, love and hate, but the details and fluctuations in thinking are difficult to predict.”

"It is said that human hearts are unpredictable, that is what it is."

Zhou Yan withdrew his gaze.

He always liked to wander around the city, where countless people gathered and their hearts were unpredictable, which was really interesting.

If you can understand it, it will be of great help to your practice.

"The era of extraordinary methods and cultivation has gradually begun."

Afterwards, Zhou Yan turned his gaze to the 'ocean' formed by the convergence of luck. The originally silent sea surface was now boiling.

And in the void, good fortune also flows down to bless one's body.

It is blessed by the luck of martial arts.

There is also an influx of extremely active human luck, which keeps Zhou Yan's thinking and mental strength at their peak state forever.

My understanding of heaven and earth seems to be guided by God.

The speed of cultivation is constantly increasing.

"I originally thought it would take a lot of effort. It seems that the so-called people in power still desire immortality and hope that the power in their hands will last forever."

Zhou Yan's eyes dropped slightly and he shook his head slightly:
“It’s fine this way. After getting through this stage, what we need next is someone who truly has enough ability, character, and courage.

By then, we won’t need you anymore.”

He opened the extraordinary era with just one sentence, nothing more.

All governments are working non-stop to research and develop plans to promote the arrival of the extraordinary era with unprecedented efficiency.

After all, they were still afraid that Zhou Yan would stop talking and take action.

"Perhaps in just a few decades, I will be able to witness the arrival of the era of cultivation. I wonder if I will be able to complete the so-called 'story' and travel through time by then?"

Zhou Yan stopped and stayed in a square.

He has made two preparations at present.

One is to complete the tasks suggested by the book that brought him through time, and then continue to travel through the heavens.

The second is that the 'story' cannot be completed.

Then rely on the layout, fully explore the world in front of you, compete with all kinds of heroes, and peek into the infinity, the existence outside the "cage".

Although it seems a bit unrealistic.

But if you come to a world where gods exist and don't plan or calculate, and just blindly follow the 'plot', you may die without knowing how you died.

What a waste of opportunity!

"Now, I have reached the state of great concentration, but I am promoting the method of cultivation and spreading it throughout the world.

Although it is just the beginning, through the blessings of these days, I have gathered enough energy to advance."

"Step into the realm of constant stability."

Zhou Yan clenched his palms, his eyes gleaming with a divine light.

Mental power breaks through the dimensional cracks and absorbs energy. This is something that can only be done in the fetal breathing state.

However, Zhou Yan himself was also taking shortcuts.

Through mental power, he influenced Feng Shui and gathered Qi, which then allowed some energy to come along and be swallowed and stored by Zhou Yan.

Now, it is enough to take a step further.

"The so-called constant stability means that the mind stays in the world for a long time, the thinking and will set an anchor point for reality, and use one's own "Tao" as a standard, and then will not retreat due to disasters.

When the mind is united with the Tao, there will be no retreat. "

"The power of the mind has been truly developed. It is no longer used crudely, but has begun to interfere with other things, forming a spiritual aura and completing the expansion of spiritual matters.

This is the permanent state.”

Zhou Yan's heart moved, and his thoughts sank into his mind.

A huge mental force filled every corner, providing Zhou Yan with an endless supply of power. As it rolled, there were signs that it was gradually condensing.

Zhou Yan knew that this was going to be a breakthrough.

With a thought in his mind, the energy that had been absorbed from the Qi that had been drawn in and had not yet been digested burst out at once, strengthening his flesh and blood body!
boom!
There seemed to be thunder in my ears.

In just a moment, all the energy Zhou Yan had accumulated over the past few days exploded. With the activation of his mental power, it differentiated and systematically strengthened the genes and every cell in his body according to the "plan" that had been designed long ago.

Organs, bones, muscles and tendons.

Zhou Yan's physique was renewing and changing every moment, his strength increasing by leaps and bounds, and then a huge surge of energy and blood was derived!

Wow~
As the blood flows, the rivers roar.

In just a moment, the sound of Zhou Yan's blood flowing drowned out all the chaos in the streets, the honking of cars, and the noisy sounds of the crowds!
Fear, screaming.

Tens of thousands of people stopped, looked around in horror, and then fled in all directions like a flock of sheep on the grassland.

All the tinnitus, all the shouting and mechanical sounds.

They were all covered by the terrifying sound that came out of nowhere, no one knew where it came from, like a tsunami sweeping in.

"Quick, evacuate the crowd! What is he doing again!"

Among the crowd, a few people reacted from their confusion and shock, and immediately shouted loudly and began to evacuate the crowd.

At the same time, he couldn't help but be shocked by Zhou Yan's change.

This being has broken through the limits of the extraordinary and taken another step forward?
“The improvement in vitality is very significant.”

Zhou Yan manipulated his mental power, calculating his increased physical strength, qi and blood, and constantly increasing his body's density and the functionality of his cells.

At the same time, the terrifying body is also feeding back to the soul.

In just a breath, Zhou Yan's mental power has almost doubled, and the invisible mental power is constantly squeezing and condensing in his mind.

It condensed into one point under Zhou Yan's mental control.

“I have no fear in my heart. I see through life and death. Spring, summer, autumn and winter, the natural cycle is all in my eyes. The cycle of life and death is all in a thought.”

Zhou Yan looked back at himself.

To say that he loves humanity is not true. To say that he spreads his teachings throughout the world and loves all living things seems a bit awkward and untrue.

Generally speaking, it is nothing more than seeking the truth.

That's it.

When his mind returned, Zhou Yan felt a sense of enlightenment in his heart. It was a kind of persistence, a will that would never regret, and an "anchor" that stabilized his soul.

Once you have a sudden realization, changes will occur.

The mental power in Zhou Yan's mind changed immediately, constantly concentrating and purifying. Although it was invisible and formless, it had a crystal clear feeling.

Wait until the transformation of mental power is complete.

An invisible aura burst out from Zhou Yan's heart.

In the blink of an eye, it radiated to a range of thousands of meters, passing through steel and concrete, and covering several streets around the square.

A feeling of peace and tranquility arose from the hearts of the people.

The panic and ferocity on his face disappeared in an instant, and the resentment, unwillingness, and all the negative emotions that were harmful to himself that had accumulated in the past day were driven away.

Temporarily got washed.

The state of constant concentration is the first transformation for a practitioner after he or she enters the realm of transcendence.

Just like how martial arts transform from the Baodan realm to martial arts, when one advances to the Changding realm, the practitioner's spirit and state of mind will be sublimated.

It is an evolution at the spiritual level.

At this time, the mind and will can also condense the aura, and use various spiritual means. It can also use the aura to cover and then affect the Feng Shui position.

"Spiritual cleansing is only temporary. Although my soul will never retreat, it is not permanent in this world and cannot truly save people."

Feeling the extension of his mental power, Zhou Yan muttered to himself.

As the aura spread, Zhou Yan's perception also expanded. All the movements, changes in qi, ups and downs in luck, and mental fluctuations within ten thousand meters were all visible in his mind.

In the past, when Zhou Yan observed the Qi, he always felt like he was looking at fog through clouds.

Although it is possible to contact and influence through various conditions, there is still a layer of gauze between us. Now it is the most direct contact with the Qi.

Even pulling, absorbing, and refining.

What is Qi?

From Zhou Yan's perspective, it is a representation of the existence of things themselves.

Just like stone and metal, the Qi is cold and dead, while jade is slightly warmer. However, the Qi of life is lively, while that of people is more cunning and changeable.

Absorb and refine.

It's not that they literally swallowed stones, metals, steel bars, concrete, or ate people, but that they understood their own characteristics.

Maintain a stable state of mind and arrange your spiritual aura to improve Feng Shui.

Then, use mental power to directly inhale and exhale the Qi, and indirectly feel the properties of matter itself. This is also the prerequisite for the thinking of the fetal breathing realm to penetrate the dimension.

"Every move he makes is gradually becoming inhuman."

Seeing the crowds in several streets stop and enjoy the long-lost happiness and lightness in their spirits with expressions on their faces, Zhou Yan just sighed.

Starting from the state of constant concentration, every action will have an impact.

In the future, it will be like a natural disaster. The laws of life and death will be determined by the gestures of the hands and feet. A single thought can destroy a country.

Naturally, the mentality begins to deviate from that of human beings.

"Maybe we'll need some interstellar navigation technology, but we'll talk about that later. Let's lay the foundation for the cultivation era first."

Zhou Yan ignored the followers with flickering eyes in the crowd. His gaze seemed to penetrate the dark void and looked at an invisible and elusive existence in the world.

"The Earth's Heavenly Dao is beginning to awaken."

Zhou Yan's eyes were filled with a deep smile:

"The destiny of mankind, the extraordinary era, the law is spreading throughout the world, the fire of change has been ignited in a corner of the heavenly way.

After a long silence, it’s my turn to appear.”
