Chapter 366 Breakthrough failed?
Upon hearing this, Maitreya thought to himself, "Guangchengzi's cultivation is profound, and it is beyond the reach of ordinary people."
"What's more, as the most outstanding disciple of the Jade Purity Saint, he not only has profound Taoism, but also possesses several extremely high-grade and powerful spiritual treasures, each of which is rare in the prehistoric world."
"If I really give it a try, with my current level of cultivation, I'm afraid I won't have a chance of winning. If I'm not careful, I might even hurt my foundation. It's really an unwise move."
Thinking of this, Maitreya felt that it was not appropriate to have a fight with Guangchengzi at this time. So, he looked at Guangchengzi with a sharp gaze, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised:
"Brother Guangchengzi, don't worry. I have just stepped into this place and am not familiar with the surrounding environment. I am not clear about many situations. How about we both stop fighting for a day and decide the winner tomorrow?"
Guang Chengzi understood what he meant when he heard this, but pretended not to understand, with a playful smile on his face:
"Junior Brother Maitreya, are you afraid? Just now you were still talking about benevolence, morality, and compassion, but why are you backing off now? Are you afraid of fighting?"
Seeing this, Chi Jingzi quickly agreed:
"Big Brother is right. In my opinion, Junior Brother Maitreya is just afraid. After all, Big Brother is already a half-step Quasi-Sage, while Junior Brother Maitreya is only at the early stage of Daluo Jinxian. How can he be compared with Big Brother?"
"Junior Brother Maitreya, you'd better recognize the situation and not bring humiliation upon yourself."
Ju Liusun was not willing to be left behind, he sneered, his words full of sarcasm:
"Yes, if the Western disciples are afraid to accept the challenge, they might as well return to the West as soon as possible. Why bother to bluff here and become a laughing stock?"
Upon hearing this, Miroku felt a little angry, but he knew that a little impatience would ruin a big plan, so he remained calm and said with a smile:
"I think you must have misunderstood. I am not afraid of fighting. I am just making a suggestion. Brother Guangchengzi is the eldest brother of the Chan Sect and has a broad mind. I think he will agree to my suggestion, right?"
Guang Chengzi's eyes were deep when he heard this, and he thought to himself. Not to mention that delaying the battle by one day would have no substantial impact on him, just in terms of the current situation, even if these people in Jiepai Pass joined forces, it would be difficult for them to pose a threat to him.
Thinking of this, Guang Chengzi smiled faintly, with a bit of confidence and calmness in his tone:
"Since Junior Brother Maitreya said so, I will give my Western disciple some face. Just as you said, we will temporarily stop fighting for one day and compete again tomorrow. However, Junior Brother, you must prepare well and don't let me down."
After saying this, he turned around and looked at Jiang Ziya behind him, and continued:
"Junior Brother Ziya, call off the troops. It won't be too late to fight again the next morning."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ziya immediately bowed and said, "I will follow your orders, brother." After saying this, he turned and left, quickly carrying out Guang Chengzi's order.
Guang Chengzi once again turned his gaze towards Wen Zhong, his tone calm but with a hint of sharpness that was barely noticeable:
"I'll let you go today, but you won't be so lucky tomorrow!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he left the place with Chi Jingzi and others.
Wen Zhong and the others were left standing there, each with a different look on their faces.
After a moment, Wen Zhong took a deep breath and tried to calm his inner turmoil. He informed his deputy general:
"Pass the order and withdraw the troops back to the city immediately. Today's battle is over. Soldiers need to rest and recuperate, and wait until tomorrow to fight the Zhou army to the death."
Upon hearing this, the deputy general immediately took the order and left. Not long after, the Western monks began to retreat in an orderly manner, heading towards the Jiepai Pass.
Afterwards, Maitreya and others followed Wen Zhong back to Jiepai Pass to discuss countermeasures.
……
Yufu Mountain, a secret room in the Cangqiong Palace, spiritual power flows endlessly, converging in the center in circles, forming a dazzling ball of light, which is the essence of the spiritual power of heaven and earth.
Luo Shu was currently at the core of the secret room. His figure was looming in the light, with a faint golden halo surrounding him.
His eyes were closed, his face was solemn, and every cell in his body seemed to be eager to break through and move towards the realm of Hunyuan Jinxian.
"Hu——" Luo Shu took a deep breath, and the spiritual power in his body surged like a river bursting its banks, unstoppable.
He silently recited the incantation in his mind, guiding this powerful spiritual power to impact the bottleneck that seemed as thin as a cicada's wing but was actually indestructible.
“Break it for me!” Luo Shu growled, and his whole body glowed brightly, as if illuminating the entire secret room.
"Click--" a faint sound was heard. Although the sound was subtle, it sounded like the sound of nature in Luo Shu's ears, and it made him feel happy.
However, this joy only lasted for a moment, because no matter how hard he tried, the bottleneck did not move at all, as if it was an insurmountable boulder blocking his way to becoming a Hunyuan Golden Immortal.
"This... how is this possible?" Luo Shu muttered to himself, with a hint of confusion and disbelief in his eyes.
He clearly felt that the spiritual power in his body had reached an unprecedented level, so why couldn't he break through this bottleneck?
Could it be that the spiritual power in his body was not enough to support his breakthrough to the Primordial Golden Immortal? Or was it that his understanding of the laws of chaos was not deep enough?
Luo Shu took a deep breath and tried to calm his inner fluctuations. He knew that at this time, impatience and anxiety would only make him more lost.
So he began to re-examine his own cultivation process, carefully recalling every detail, trying to find the key to a breakthrough.
As time went by, Luo Shu's mood gradually became peaceful.
He began to try to guide the spiritual power in his body in different ways. He no longer relied on brute force, but paid more attention to the harmony with the laws of chaos.
Luo Shu closed his eyes and felt everything around him with his heart, as if he had merged into this world and become a part of it.
At this moment, a wonderful feeling came over Luo Shu. He seemed to hear the breath of heaven and earth and feel the pulse of all things.
His soul resonated with the world, and the spiritual energy in his body began to surge, forming a wonderful rhythm.
“So that’s how it is…” Luo Shu suddenly realized. He finally understood what his previous problem was.
"It seems that we should not be impatient. Breaking through to the Primordial Golden Immortal level is not a one-day job. We need to be as calm as water and let nature take its course."
At this time, Luo Shu knew that if he wanted to break through to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal, he must comprehend the power of the laws. Otherwise, even if his spiritual power burst his body, he would not be able to break through to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal.
After understanding this, Luo Shu began to adjust his state, guarding against arrogance and impatience, and keeping his mind as calm as water.
After all, with the help of the cheating artifact, his cultivation level increased rapidly like a rocket.
This also indirectly affects one's mood, resulting in the inability to truly touch the essence of practice.
“I hope that after I break through to the Primordial Golden Immortal, the Calamity will not change too much. Otherwise, wouldn’t my efforts be in vain?”
After saying this, Luo Shu entered into cultivation again, striving to break through to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal as soon as possible.
