Chapter 15: Using grass as a ruler

The good deeds of the evil punishment system currently serve only one purpose: to exchange for enlightenment time.

The time of understanding is divided into several levels.

The first level is the time of enlightenment: 100 good deeds in one second, one can quickly discover all the deficiencies in the past and improve them.

When the usage time of enlightenment time has been accumulated to a certain extent, good deeds can be used to exchange for the second level.

The second level is the enlightenment time, 1000 good deeds per second.

The purpose of practicing and proclaiming the Dharma is for enlightenment!

If we talk about the effect of using enlightenment time, it is like getting the correct answer for comparison.

So the effect of using enlightenment time is equivalent to having a teacher break down these correct answers, explain them in depth, and point out a clear way forward. Let practitioners quickly cross the process of starting from nothing.

The effect of enlightenment time is extremely exaggerated!

For example, Shen Zhui had practiced "The Ninth Level of the Iron Ruler" for two years before, and with the help of experience during the period of enlightenment, he was unable to reach the state of great achievement.

But when he exchanged it for twenty seconds of 'enlightenment' time, he reached the state where man and machine become one.

Of course, if a person is full after eating seven buns, the credit cannot be attributed entirely to the seventh bun.

Indispensable for this is the accumulation of insights into the ruler method during the time of enlightenment.

“38,500 good deeds can be converted into enlightenment time, which is 385 seconds.

Converted into enlightenment time, it is 38.5 seconds, which is not too short. " Shen Zhui thought to himself.

Shen Zhui originally planned to redeem the time for enlightenment to pierce the last layer of window paper between "Flowing Cloud Step" and reaching the realm of Dacheng.

Unexpectedly, the previous interception outside the city allowed him to break through to the Dacheng state between life and death, allowing him to save so much good deeds.

"Now that I have broken through to the ninth level of the day after tomorrow, I have also finished eating the Great Return Pill, and there is no way to improve my cultivation level in a short time."

Shen Zhui stood up from the bed, pulled out straws from under the quilt, and played with them in his hands.

"On the other hand, although the Chi Technique and Shen Technique are already at the Great Perfection Realm, with so many good deeds at hand, we can still try to improve them. Just how to use these good deeds needs to be carefully considered."

With 70% or 20% discount on hand, he twisted and tied a handful of straw into a stick shape.

After waving twice, Shen Zhui nodded. He had reached the state where man and weapon were integrated. It was just a matter of practice and understanding. There was not much difference between branches and weapons.

"Shenfa has just broken through to the realm of Dacheng. Even if all the good deeds are exchanged for enlightenment time now, I am afraid it will be difficult to break through to the realm of perfection. That is, there is still a glimmer of hope for the ruler method."

Shen Zhui thought to himself and quickly made a decision.

First, redeem the good deeds in two parts, of which 20,000 good deeds are reserved to redeem the time for enlightenment.

The remaining good deeds are exchanged for enlightenment time and accumulated slowly.

"Try exchanging forty seconds of enlightenment time first."

With a single thought, good deeds will be deducted.

"The exchange is successful, the countdown to enlightenment time begins 39, 38, 37..."

Buzz~

A wonderful feeling comes.

It was like a drowning person who suddenly surfaced and was able to breathe.

Even though he had experienced this feeling many times, Shen Zhui still found it wonderful.

Swish swish swish~

Shen Zhui began to immerse himself in the time of enlightenment, and began to practice the "Nine Levels of Iron Ruler" using a straw stick as a ruler.

"The Nine Levels of the Iron Ruler" contains a set of diagrams, which record the eighteen forms of ruler techniques, which are methods to help practitioners understand.

Shen Zhui was already familiar with these moves, but using the straw stick as a weapon now gave him a different feeling.

"Huh~"

The straw stick brought up many phantoms, and as Shen Zhui's body movements continued to swing, the entity of the straw stick was soon no longer visible, as if Shen Zhui was holding nothing in his hand.

Sunlight shines in through the window, and the shadows of sticks and figures overlap and become one.

Shen Zhui naturally reached the state of integration of man and machine.

Many experiences emerged from my heart, and some previous doubts were easily solved, but soon new doubts arose, and adjustments...

"The time for enlightenment is over."

The system prompt sounded, but Shen Zhui did not pause. Instead, he continued practicing for a while before stopping.

"The unity of nature and man, how can we achieve the state of unity of nature and man..."

Looking at the tattered straw stick in his hand, Shen threw it away, frowned and closed his eyes to recall the feeling just now.

The feeling of being separated from the enlightenment time is not good. It is like a person who has just been rescued from the shore and is thrown into the water again. It feels like drowning.

Not long after, Shen Zhui opened his eyes and sat down again.

"Although I feel that I have made some progress, I have no idea how to develop a trace of 'momentum' in the ruler technique to the point where it can mobilize the power of heaven and earth..."

Progress, yes.

But this kind of progress does not lead directly to the state of perfection vertically, but horizontally.

"Whether it's in the books or Bantou Wang, it is said that in order to achieve the state of 'harmony between man and nature', two conditions need to be met: perfect power and the ability to mobilize the power of heaven and earth."

"How can we achieve these two conditions?"

Neither the book nor Wang Long, the innate master he had consulted, mentioned it.

It’s not that I don’t want to teach, it’s that I can’t teach.

The ‘unity of man and weapon’ in the Dacheng realm has a hint of ‘power’, such as sword power, knife power, etc.

Everyone's feelings after practicing are very different.

With the same set of techniques, some people's sword power is domineering, while others' sword power is gentle... all kinds of things!

As a result, there is no way to give direct advice at all!

To achieve the perfect state of "unity of heaven and man", this "potential" must be in harmony with heaven and earth and mobilize the power of heaven and earth.

It is even more mysterious and obscure than the Dacheng Realm, let alone impossible to talk about.

"Master, let me in. Cultivation is up to you..." Shen Zhui sighed. No matter what kind of martial arts, no matter how powerful the master is, he can point you to the Xiaocheng state, which is infinitely close to the Dacheng state.

Further up, although guidance is still useful, it mainly depends on personal qualifications.

As for the state of perfection, you simply have to rely on yourself.

It's like learning to swim. Although someone has explained all the postures and tips clearly, many people still can't learn it.

Not to mention this indescribable level of martial arts.

"Is it because I just broke through and my power control is no longer perfect, so I don't even have a clue?"

Shen Zhui thought it was very possible.

The so-called perfect control of power...requires the warrior to control every bit of power very accurately and precisely, only in this way can the power be considered perfect.

Shen Zhui has actually been able to achieve perfect control of his power for a long time.

The mastery of ruler technique itself requires extremely high control of strength.

However, he has just broken through the acquired ninth level, and his strength will have a small explosive increase. It may take an adaptation period to regain perfect control.

After thinking about it, Shen Zhui picked up a small piece of gravel from the ground and threw it towards the gap in the iron door.

"Dang~"

The gravel did not pass through the gap. Instead, it deflected and hit the door panel above.

"It's true." Seeing this, Shen Zhui smiled and shook his head.

The power control is not precise enough, and it is not even accurate, let alone other things.

Previously, he thought it was because the weapon in his hand was too light, but he unexpectedly ignored this.

"It seems that we still need to adapt to the increase in physical strength first."

Fortunately, the space arranged for him in the cell is not too small. Looking for Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan． com is enough for Shen Zhui to use his fists.

Without using any more time to understand, Shen Zhui began to practice strength control in the cell...

………………

Time passed day by day, and on the tenth day, Shen Zhui gained perfect control over his strength.

Then he folded the grass into a ruler and continued to practice.

In conjunction with the enlightenment time, we will summarize and improve the deficiencies in "The Nine Levels of the Iron Ruler".

Soon, Shen Zhui's ruler skills gradually contained a mysterious meaning.

Although it was far from reaching the state of unity between man and nature... at least, Shen Zhui felt that he was going in the right direction.

After practicing hard like this every day, without having to perform tasks or think about other things, he feels that he has made great progress.

Little by little, it is approaching the realm of unity between man and nature.

Even with the body technique "Flowing Cloud Step", there was a breakthrough.

Shen Zhui estimated that he should have reached an 80% avoidance rate within two small realms.

…………

On the twentieth day, as Shen Zhui continued to redeem his enlightenment time, the consumption of good deeds had been reduced to just over 20,000.

The room was also full of old weeds, and the originally clean and bright room became messy.

However, Shen Zhui still resisted the impulse and continued to digest his previous gains without redeeming his enlightenment time.

These twenty days were the most intensive period of time in his history for redeeming enlightenment, and he was also the most devoted period of time in practicing the Ruler Technique.

He couldn't go anywhere anyway, but it made him calmer.

I thought about it wholeheartedly for another five days, and it was the evening of the twenty-fifth day.

Shen Zhui was practicing when his heart suddenly moved.

He finally decided to start redeeming his 'enlightenment' time.
