After parting ways with Guo Jing, Huang Rong, and Mu Nianci, Wang Ming intended to return to Jueqing Valley to enter closed-door cultivation, and the thought of having someone there to wait on him and handle his meals naturally made him eager to return.
Yet teaching Guo Jing the Indestructible Vajra Body that night made him think of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill, a peerlessly frustrating martial art that was practically a scam.
The Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill was divided into thirteen layers in total:
The first layer of technique was extremely superficial, and even a person of the utmost dullness, provided they received instruction, could master it within a year or two.
The second layer was twice as profound as the first, requiring three or four years. The third layer was twice as profound again as the second, requiring seven or eight years. It increased exponentially in this manner, and the further along one progressed, the harder it was to advance.
Once past the fifth layer, desiring to train even one layer deeper often required over thirty years of bitter toil. Within the Vajra Sect, eminent monks and extraordinary scholars emerged generation after generation, yet not a single person had ever practiced this thirteen-layered Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill past the tenth layer. This technique progressed step by step, and inherently there was naturally no reason it could not be mastered; if someone were to live to be several thousand years old, they would ultimately reach the thirteenth-layer realm, but human lifespan had its limits.
One could only imagine how much of a trap this martial art was, but Wang Ming was not afraid!
Therefore, he decided to go to the Vajra Sect of Mongolian Esoteric Buddhism to seize this life-expending divine skill.
All the way through the Song Dynasty
