Chapter 814: Dojos Everywhere in Great Xia (6)
Editor:Â Henyee Translations
Everything she saw was actually the underground forest where she and Su Yun had been trapped. That memory was the most unforgettable for Chen Jie. She would even wake up in this dream countless times. That was when she was closest to Su Yun. Ever since she left that place, she and Su Yun seemed to have drifted further and further apart.
Chen Jieâs emotions were very complicated. She could roughly guess that everything she saw was an illusion. For some reason, Su Yun could make the deepest obsession in their hearts appear in front of them again in the form of an illusion.
Chen Jie finally understood why no one had succeeded until now. Everyone had their own obsession, and when this obsession was infinitely magnified, who could easily see through it?
The truth was indeed as Chen Jie had thought. On the other side, Professor LĂŒ did not see this forest, but his own office.
Professor LĂŒ had spent most of his life in this office, but what really obsessed him was the concept of cultivation brought about by Su Yun.
To Professor LĂŒ, the word âcultivationâ was like opening the door to a new world. He clearly held the key in his hand, but he could only wander around the door forever. He could not open the most important door no matter what.
This made Professor LĂŒ unable to let go, so it became an obsession in his heart. After gradually understanding his current situation, he finally understood why Su Yun had said those words back then.
Remember, the heart ape is locked, the horse is tied, the three reverses disperse, the mind is at peace, and the six thieves are determined. If he could really comprehend these words, everything in front of him would not be an obstacle.
This time, Su Yun wanted to test everyoneâs comprehension of Dao techniques. As expected, when Professor LĂŒ realized this, everything in front of him disappeared. It was still the familiar field, the steps in front of him, and Su Yun, who was sitting on a high platform not far away.
Professor LĂŒ took a step forward and stepped onto the second step. It was also this action that immediately welcomed the exclamations of everyone below the stage.
âProfessor LĂŒ is the only person who has stepped onto the second step so far!â
âLook, he didnât stop just like that. Instead, heâs continuing to walk up.â
âSomeone actually succeeded. This finally gives us some hope!â
Soon, Professor LĂŒ stood on the high platform. He looked at Su Yun and cupped his fists and bowed to him from the bottom of his heart. This test was even more of a pointer for Professor LĂŒ. He had always been obsessed with cultivation, but he did not expect that obsession would go against the path of cultivation.
Now, it seemed that Professor LĂŒ had only stepped onto the steps, but in fact, he had broken through the fog in his heart.
Su Yun slowly opened his eyes and looked at Professor LĂŒ calmly, as if he was not puzzled by his arrival. âProfessor LĂŒ, have you understood anything along the way?â
Professor LĂŒ looked at Su Yun gratefully and nodded. âI understand.â
Su Yunâs expression did not change. He only looked at Professor LĂŒ and said word by word, âIn the past, if one obtained one, the heavens would be green, the earth would be peaceful, the gods would be spirited, the valley would be born, and when one obtained one, the world would be right. Thereâs no need to deliberately search for the Dao. The Dao is in your heart.â
Su Yunâs words seemed to wake Professor LĂŒ up from a dream. All the doubts he had about cultivation were suddenly enlightened.
Professor LĂŒâs successful ascension to the top gave everyone hope. Just then, Chen Jie, who had not moved, actually took another step. But everyone noticed that Chen Jieâs expression was a little complicated. There was even a hint of reluctance in her eyes. It was as if Chen Jie had a big dream just now. She had woken up, but she was obsessed with what was in her dream.
Finally, Chen Jie came in front of Su Yun. She looked at Su Yun and suppressed all her emotions.
Looking at Chen Jie in front of him, for the first time, a faint gentle smile appeared on Su Yunâs face. He only nodded slightly, but Chen Jie seemed to understand everything. She revealed a bright smile, her eyes filled with nostalgia.
Their success aroused the enthusiasm in everyoneâs hearts again. They began to step forward to try, and the emotions of the people waiting increased.
Chen Jie and Professor LĂŒ spontaneously sat cross-legged behind Su Yun. This was also all Su Yunâs new insights on the way to Hibiscus University.
From Su Yunâs point of view, there were four realms to Dao comprehension: first seeing the Dao, second knowing, then seeing the Dao, and finally achieving the Dao. Previously, when the four people who entered the Dao at the Qiantang River, they were all at the stage of seeing the Dao. They entered the Dao with techniques and searched for the heart.
However, Professor LĂŒ and Chen Jie were now in the realm of knowledge.
This realm was not the realm of cultivation, but the realm of the mind.
Just like how to an expert with a strangely high mental state, even if he had not entered cultivation, he could still observe the world as if it was a distant mountain.
They knew that there was no need to go up the distant mountains to look at the deep valley. There was no need to go down the deep valley to see it.
Because if they went to the distant mountains, they would only not be able to see the distant mountains or the deep valley. It was like entering a forest. He could see trees, but he could not see the lush vegetation. If he wanted to see the lush vegetation, he could only see it clearly if he stood at the top and looked down.
Professor LĂŒ and Chen Jieâs mental states were higher than most people. From the fact that they could pass Su Yunâs test first, it was not difficult to tell.
This time, Su Yun did not use gravity to grind his muscles and bones like when he preached at the Qiantang River. He spread out the supernatural domain. This mental power would be useful to anyone who entered the domain.
Under the guidance of their mental strength, these people would step into a scene similar to a fantasy. But in fact, Su Yun did not have the ability to customize an illusion out of thin air. That was only the most persistent image formed in their minds.
This was also a very important matter. If one could not break through their obsession, even if they entered the Dao through skills, it was inevitable that they would go berserk, just like what Su Yun had experienced back then.
Therefore, when Professor LĂŒ and Chen Jie sat cross-legged on both sides, they were actually still in the stage of entering the Dao from technique. However, the skills of the two of them were not dancing with knives and spears, but literary skills.
Professor LĂŒ studied the ancient books diligently. Everything that he did not understand previously gradually became clear as he sat in Su Yunâs domain. It was as if the fog that enveloped these things had dissipated layer by layer, causing Professor LĂŒ to finally stop spying on them.
Chen Jie was the same. Her skill was experience and knowledge in archeology. The originally lifeless words seemed to appear vividly in her mind at this moment. Martial arts could become a skill, and literature could also become a skill. As long as it was within Su Yunâs domain, he could master both civil and military skills.
Su Yunâs sermon at Hibiscus University lasted for a few hours and tens of thousands of people tried. In the end, only six people succeeded.
Among these six people, other than Professor LĂŒ and Chen Jie, the other four also chose the weapons they liked like the sermon at the Qiantang River.
From this, it was not difficult to see that the threshold for literary skills was much higher than weapons. If not for experts in their respective fields like Professor LĂŒ and Chen Jie, it would be almost impossible for others to reach it.
Cultivation was not an easy task. Even if one entered the Dao through technique, not everyone could succeed. Among the tens of thousands of people, only six came out. In fact, among the tens of thousands of people, Principal Gao and the others could not help but go forward and try. These six people had undoubtedly surpassed tens of thousands of people, so much so that the eliminated losers were all in low spirits.
Of course, Su Yun also gave these people a Dharma Word like last time. While telling them that there was still a chance in the future, he also left a seed of Dharma in their hearts.
âThe Heavenly Dao is the Dao of Nature, which is the reason why everything in the universe changes. The Divine Path was the way of the world. It was the principle of stabilizing the country and the world. Humanity was the way of life, which was to live and work in peace.
âThese three complemented each other. When the Heavenly Dao is far, the Saint Dao is trap. When the Saint Dao is far, humanity is difficult, when humanity is far, achieving Heavenly Dao is impossible.â
Su Yunâs words entered everyoneâs ears, causing them to ponder for a long time. At the end of this sermon, Su Yunâs words reignited hope in the tens of thousands of people who had been eliminated.
After Su Yun left, the preaching field of Hibiscus City University was specially set up as a dojo like the Qiantang River Square. It was permanently preserved and repaired to make it look like a true dojo. They looked forward to Su Yun preaching next time.
This dojo was called the Hibiscus Dojo!
