Chapter 718 - 439 Primordial Pill! _2
"In the Primordial Pill, 200 jin of Essence Energy equates to one thirtieth of a Primordial Pill, one Primordial Pill worth 10,000 jin of Essence Stone, that is—""333 jin of Essence Stone!"
"The interest from the Gathering Treasure Basin is insufficient!"
...
The twelfth year of Great Yan Hongwu, seventh day of the second month.
The second day after Yan Chuan returned to Tan Valley Royal City.
"Thirty thousand Tan Valley Army cultivating ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Gong’, after two months, by yesterday, a total of three hundred thirty-four people completed the First Layer, and eleven people completed the Second Layer."
Early in the morning, Ni Mengtong explained the situation of the Tan Valley Army to Yan Chuan. In other aspects, there was no detailed explanation, but Martial Arts and Qi Power were tangible and measurable. Ni Mengtong compiled daily statistics and had the most detailed data.
"One percent."
"Still not bad."
Yan Chuan was slightly surprised.
The ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Gong’ is divided into thirteen layers, although it is a Geng Five Divine Skill, the First Layer skills are very simple and easy; even the least talented person can practice it within one to two years once taught.
The Second Layer is twice as profound as the First, requiring three to four years.
Yet, the thirty thousand Tan Valley Army, practicing only for two months, someone already achieved results of one to two years reaching the First Layer, and eleven people bypassed three-four years of hard work to achieve the Second Layer.
It’s actually not slow.
This skill follows a gradual path, there’s no reason why it cannot be mastered, provided there’s enough time. After one to two years, perhaps seventy to eighty percent of the thirty thousand Tan Valley Army would have completed the First Layer. After another three to four years, seventy to eighty percent of these would complete the Second Layer.
The Third Layer is twice as profound as the Second, requiring seven to eight years.
That is to say, based on the First and Second Layers, in another seven to eight years, seventy to eighty percent of seventy to eighty percent could complete the Third Layer.
Calculating like this, setting aside reductions during the thirteen-four years of war and peace, at most fourteen years later, there would be as many as twelve thousand people from the Tan Valley Army achieving the Third Layer of ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Gong’.
Three-layered ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Gong’!
Limit-breaking First and Second Grade!
That’s twelve thousand limit-breakers!
By then, the Tan Valley Army would be invincible!
However, the so-called ’First Layer in one or two years’, ’Second Layer in three to four years’, ’Third Layer in seven to eight years’ is mostly for the least talented; the higher the talent, the more diligent the cultivation, the shorter this process.
Otherwise, how could more than three hundred people successfully form the First Layer and eleven people the Second Layer in just two months among the Tan Valley Army?
Looking at the Jin Lun Dharma King, he was able to achieve the Tenth Layer of ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Gong’ in his lifetime, showing that this skill has a lower limit on talent and comprehension but no upper limit.
If Jin Lun Dharma King achieved the Tenth Layer in his lifetime, then expanding the base, with a sufficient degree of base numbers, it is certain someone could reach the supreme thirteenth layer in their lifetime.
As for the so-called ’thousand-year-old’ required for completing the thirteenth layer, that’s for the ’incompetent’; it doesn’t even qualify as ’mediocre’.
"Even if the thirty thousand Tan Valley Army are all incompetents, in thirteen to fourteen years, there would be an influential force."
"If half are mediocre, perhaps something could be achieved in seven to eight years."
"Dragon Elephant Wisdom Gong!"
"High lower limit, infinite!"
...
"’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Gong’ is profound yet entry-level is simple."
"The basic skill is called ’Elephant Skill’—"
"Face south, back north, Five Hearts Facing the Sky, left foot above, neck straight, head suspended, abdomen retracted, waist collapsed, shoulders slightly spread, spine straight, top of head aligning with the sky, slight pelvic floor lift, palms facing up on knees, relax the Tianmu Acupoint, breathe naturally, energy sinking into the lower abdomen, sitting silently, mind free of distractions."
"Focus on the Tianmu Acupoint, and soon there is a bright point emitting dazzling light. This point flies out of the Tianmu Acupoint, landing on a Pure Land, transforming into your own image, identical to you."
"Make the ’Dragon Elephant Clarity Seal’ with your hands."
"Don’t look at me, look at the sky, see the smoke gather, that is the ’Dragon Elephant Clarity Seal’, that is, thumbs pressed on the second joint crease of the middle fingers, second joint bent, hands overlapping, left on top, right below, middle fingers at the second joint bend, palms up, middle fingertips facing your nose, adjacent to the navel, close your eyes, focus through the Tianmu Acupoint comprehensively reading in the Pure Land there is a high mountain standing lofty like an elephant, a large river at the foot roaring like a dragon. Associate the mind with your other self in the Pure Land. Recite the mantra, Za Hong Banhuo, forty-nine times, continue to visualize your other self raising the mountain, which turns into a giant elephant, feet stepping on the river, which turns into a giant dragon..."
At the main training ground of Tan Valley Army, Yan Chuan first led thirty thousand to practice the ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Gong’ Basic dynamic skills, namely Fist and Feet Pile Skill, now leading tens of thousands to practice the ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Gong’ Basic Static Skill, i.e., sitting and visualization.
Combining motion and stillness!
That’s the Dragon Elephant!
Yan Chuan explained martial arts, taught ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Gong’, ’Mutual Teaching and Learning’ was triggered, listeners passively elevated comprehension efficiency by 100%, even the ’incompetents’, under such great enhancement, could achieve a ’mediocre’ level, most could even be considered minor talents.
On this basis, being guided by Yan Chuan, cultivating and realizing ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Gong’ again, one lecture even more beneficial than their prior two months of hard cultivation.
"Dragon Elephant Clarity Seal."
"Six-Transformation Lotus Seal."
"Meditation."
"Meditation."
"Visualization."
"Pile Skill."
The troops were thrilled and joyous, as if listening to the sound of the Dao, various doubts and confusions that once plagued them in cultivating ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Gong’ were instantly cleared as if spring showers brought new life.
"So that’s how it is!"
"So that’s how it is!"
Hao Meng was still in the Tan Valley Army.
He, a newly admitted Limit-breaker from the ’Xingyi Sect’ in ’Hundred Flower Palace’, had grasped the ’Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound’ after listening to Yan Chuan speak about boxing, for several months now.
During these months.
Hao Meng continued to delve into ’Xingyi Boxing’, while diligently cultivating ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Gong’, and found congruence, progressing rapidly, and achieved the Second Layer in just two short months.
However, the Third Layer posed a sudden increase in difficulty, Hao Meng often felt perplexed, and his cultivation speed abruptly slowed down.
But this time.
Under Yan Chuan’s explanation, Hao Meng suddenly realized, with an upsurge of Qi-Blood while making the ’Six-Transformation Lotus Seal’, he stood up abruptly, practiced stance then boxing, subsequently—
Boom!
"Dragon Elephant Wisdom Gong"!
Third Layer!
"Success!"
...
"Old Yan!"
"You are the [Thumbs up] of this!"
Wang Zhengyi gave Yan Chuan a thumbs up, unable to suppress his amazement: "I’m also cultivating ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Gong’, I’m progressing swiftly, but over two months I’ve only reached the Fourth Layer, I consider it impressive, but compared to you, there’s a big gap!"
Upon Wang Zhengyi’s return, he witnessed the entire Tan Valley Army excited and joyous, as if celebrating a grand festival, just past the turn of the year, it wasn’t warranted!
Upon inquiry, it became clear that since Yan Chuan returned from his ’Soul Channel’, during the ten days he spent at the ’Tiger Hunting Land’, he lectured daily on martial arts for the Tan Valley Army, mainly on ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Gong’.
From originally just over three hundred people completing the First Layer, he tripled the number in ten short days, now exceeding eleven hundred completing the First Layer, while those achieving the Second Layer soared from eleven to forty-one, a fourfold increase.
Additionally, the previously empty Third Layer gained four new members within ten days!
"You just returned, offering a little guidance, made a lot of individuals General Ni and Master Luo found challenging seem enlightened, not only ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Gong’, but also great progress in ’Xingyi Boxing’ and other Five Fists, and ’Little Arhat Formation’. I’ve heard some are even starting to prepare for the ’Eighteen Copper Men Formation’ and ’Twenty-four Arhats Formation’!"
"Golden Touch!"
"Innate Master!"
"Indeed, only wrong names, not wrong nicknames!"
"Old Yan!"
"You truly live up to your name, an unparalleled master!"
