Chapter 367 Breaking through the bottleneck
In that dark and hopeless situation, Yun Yao felt as if she was stuck in a quagmire. Every time she tried to break free, she was dragged back by the invisible force. The bottleneck of the Judan Realm was like an indestructible natural chasm that stood in her way of cultivation, making her hesitate and full of anxiety.
She sat alone in the corner of the secret room, the spiritual energy around her became violent and restless due to her disordered state of mind. Yun Yao bit her lower lip tightly, her eyes full of unwillingness and confusion. She practiced the skills again and again, trying to guide the spiritual energy to impact the blocked meridians, but each time, she was counterattacked by the spiritual power, the blood in her body surged, and her internal organs seemed to be burned by fire.
"Why? Why can't I break through?" Yun Yao muttered to herself, her voice trembling with despair. She remembered that in modern society, no matter how difficult the challenge was, she could always find a way out with her wisdom and perseverance. But now, in this world of cultivation, facing this mysterious and powerful bottleneck, she felt so powerless.
Just when Yun Yao was about to collapse, the stone door of the secret room slowly swayed, and a familiar figure quietly walked in. It was Chu Mochen. In the past few days, he had been silently guarding Yun Yao and had never left for a moment. His figure was slightly tired, but his eyes were full of concern. He saw through Yun Yao's current predicament at a glance.
"Yun Yao, don't lose heart." Chu Mochen said softly, his voice gentle and firm, as if carrying a magic that can soothe people's hearts, "Although the bottleneck is difficult, it is not insurmountable. I know that you must be full of self-doubt at this moment, but don't forget that along the way, haven't you overcome enough difficulties and obstacles?"
Yun Yao raised her head, tears glistening in her eyes, and looked at Chu Mochen. The familiar face made her heart warm. "I know, but this time, I really feel powerless. Every time I try, I get deeper frustration."
Chu Mochen slowly sat down beside Yun Yao, stretched out his hand and gently held her hand, conveying his warmth and strength. "You are too impatient, and forcing the impact will only backfire. Sometimes, we need to stop and think from a different perspective. Tell me in detail how you feel during the practice, and every detail of the operation of your spiritual power."
Yun Yao took a deep breath, calmed down her emotions, and began to describe the various situations during her cultivation. From the beginning of the gathering of spiritual power, to the blockage when impacting the meridians, to the moment of spiritual power backlash, every detail was not missed.
Chu Mochen frowned, listened carefully, and fell into deep thought from time to time. After a long time, he raised his head slightly, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes. "I think I may have found the problem. You see, when you first gathered your spiritual power, you used the conventional method of absorption. This is certainly correct, but it is a bit awkward for breaking through the Judan realm. The reason why the Judan realm is a difficult hurdle is that it requires compressing and condensing spiritual power, turning it into a substantial pill, and storing it in the Dantian. The spiritual power you absorbed before was too dispersed. When impacting the meridians, it could not form a strong combined force. Instead, it was blocked by the impurities in the meridians, causing backlash."
Yun Yao listened to Chu Mochen's analysis, and gradually became clear in her mind. "Then according to your opinion, how should I adjust?"
"You need to try a new method of guiding spiritual power." Chu Mochen's eyes were firm, as if he had already made up his mind. "When absorbing spiritual power, abandon the previous straightforward method and use spiral absorption instead. Just like a whirlpool, draw the surrounding spiritual power into the Dantian. In this process, the initial compression and condensation will be automatically completed. In this way, the purity and density of the spiritual power will be greatly improved, and it will be more powerful when impacting the bottleneck."
A glimmer of hope ignited in Yun Yao's eyes, and she couldn't wait to try it. Seeing this, Chu Mochen smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I'll show you first."
As he spoke, he closed his eyes and concentrated, his hands dancing slowly, and the spiritual power in the air seemed to be summoned by something and began to slowly gather. In front of Chu Mochen, the spiritual power gradually formed a vortex visible to the naked eye, slowly rotating, spinning faster and faster, and the surrounding spiritual energy rushed into it crazily, making a buzzing sound. After a moment, he slowly stopped the exercise and looked at Yun Yao, "Do you understand?"
Yun Yao nodded, her eyes full of admiration and gratitude. "I roughly understand. I'll give it a try."
Yun Yao adjusted her sitting position, closed her eyes and concentrated, and began to absorb spiritual power according to the method taught by Chu Mochen. At first, the operation of spiritual power was a little awkward, and the formation of the vortex was not stable. But she was not discouraged, and tried again and again, constantly adjusting the rhythm and strength of spiritual power.
Chu Mochen stood aside, watching Yun Yao intently, paying attention to her condition at all times. Whenever Yun Yao deviated, he would gently remind her and give her guidance.
As time passed, the spiritual energy in the secret room became more and more dense. Yun Yao immersed herself in cultivation and gradually forgot everything in the outside world. She felt as if she had become the master of spiritual power, controlling the powerful force and circulating and compressing it according to her will.
Suddenly, a slight roar came from Yun Yao's body, like a spring thunder. A powerful force surged out from her dantian and instantly spread throughout her body. Her meridians were constantly widened and strengthened under the impact of this force. The originally blocked nodes were broken through one after another, and the spiritual power flowed like a surging river.
"I succeeded!" Yun Yao suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes sparkling with joy and excitement. She turned to look at Chu Mochen, her eyes full of gratitude and love, "If it weren't for you, I would not have been able to break through today. Thank you, Chen."
Chu Mochen looked at Yun Yao, feeling relieved. "This is due to your own efforts and understanding. I just did my best. Now that you have successfully broken through and your strength has greatly increased, you have an additional guarantee to deal with the upcoming crisis."
Yun Yao stood up, feeling the endless power in her body, and her confidence grew. "Yes, with this strength, we will be able to protect our sect and everything we cherish."
At this moment, Yun Yao exuded a powerful aura, which was the unique majesty of a Judan Realm expert. She knew that this was just a small milestone on her path of cultivation, and there were more challenges waiting for her ahead. But as long as Chu Mochen was with her and as long as she had faith in her heart, she would be fearless and move forward courageously.
The two smiled at each other, and that smile was full of trust in each other and expectations for the future. In this turbulent world of cultivation, they worked together and took a solid step towards an unknown tomorrow.
Walking out of the training chamber, the sun shines on her body, warm and cozy. The disciples in the sect sense the powerful aura of Yun Yao and cast admiring glances at her. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen walk side by side, preparing to inform the elders of the good news of the breakthrough and discuss the next plan to deal with the dark forces.
On the way, Yun Yao couldn't help but ask: "Chen, you said that the dark forces are so rampant, can we really repel them completely?"
Chu Mochen slightly side-glanced at Yun Yao, his eyes determined. "I definitely can. Our strength has increased, the sect is united, and we have the help of ancient artifacts. As long as we are not afraid and do not retreat, we will be able to protect our homeland."
Yun Yao nodded slightly, and the worry in her heart gradually dissipated. Yes, as long as they work together, what is there to fear?
Arriving at the elders' meeting hall, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen informed everyone of the breakthrough. The elders were delighted and praised them repeatedly. "Good, good, good, Yun Yao's breakthrough is a blessing for our sect. Now that the artifact is about to be activated, we have a better chance of winning."
Afterwards, everyone sat together and discussed in depth the strategy to fight against the dark forces. With the help of Yun Yao's improved strength, the plan was more perfect, and every link was considered in detail.
Yun Yao knew that this battle was about the survival of the sect, so she dared not slack off. In the following days, she and Chu Mochen practiced hard day and night, familiarized themselves with the new power, and repeatedly practiced tactics with the disciples of the sect, striving to be foolproof.
The dark forces are also approaching step by step. A war that will shock the world and make ghosts weep is about to begin in this world of cultivation...
