The Third Good Plan
If one cannot achieve the ability to make one's thoughts and words follow the law, the Resonance Between Heaven and Humanity will be difficult to apply in direct confrontation.
Zhang Xuezhou had witnessed Dong Zhongshu manipulate the Resonance Between Heaven and Humanity several times. The first time was when he was searching for Zou Bugui, and the second time was when Dong Zhongshu mentioned fighting the Great Sage of the Water Ape, which Zhang Xuezhou forcibly broke through to a higher realm.
Even Dong Zhongshu, the founder, couldn't use it in direct confrontation, while Zhang Xuezhou never even considered using the concept of the Resonance Between Heaven and Humanity in a confrontation.
He wanted to utilize the Technique Method he was skilled in.
This is a factor that adds variables to one's own Technique Method.
Ordinary Technique Method may not seem to have much effect, but if Technique Method can be improved after reaching a certain limit, that is an extraordinary thing.
For example, Zhang Xuezhou's Technique Within the Clouds, currently fixed at the Golden Wing level, might exhibit some of the Jade Wing effects if he encounters Resonance Between Heaven and Humanity. Or, for instance, he might release more Technique Method when his Law Power is limited.
Aside from the difficulty in getting into a state of spiritual connection, the Resonance Between Heaven and Humanity boasts all-around advantages, and it doesn't even require much Law Power.
The sensing mentioned by Dong Zhongshu truly only requires calming the mind to sense it. Only after sensing it does one need to activate this technique to capture the corresponding energy. When absorbing these micro-energys into the body, there is only a slight consumption, similar to breathing, with almost no cost.
"World..."
Gongsun Hong opened his arms and shouted repeatedly, trying to Jieyin the righteous energy one after another.
Zhang Xuezhou didn't disturb the other party. He released his cloud-riding technique, soared into the sky, and landed gracefully, his movements as light as the wind.
After his disorienting flight from Jiangxia to Sichuan, Zhang Xuezhou discovered that he had finally mastered the art of aerial maneuvering.
He can not only use his demonic wings to fly and change direction, but his cloud-riding technique has also changed. He is no longer just someone who can simply rise into the clouds and then fall back down; he can now change direction.
That's why Zhang Xuezhou took off and then flew back.
Only when Zhang Xuezhou's foot touched the ground, making a slight sound, did Gongsun Hong quickly turn around.
"Aren't you afraid that the master of the Water Mansion will return at any time while you're above this Water Mansion?" Gongsun Hong stopped reciting and asked in a low voice.
"His impression of you is so-so, but he's quite friendly to me," Zhang Xuezhou shrugged. "You'd better not let him catch you!"
"I don't know what the Water Dragon King was thinking, he actually got scared by the King of Jiangdu and ran away!"
Zhang Xuezhou's reminder made Gongsun Hong look slightly embarrassed. He kept glancing around, wary of Ao Li's appearance.
Gongsun Hong felt that the matter of the Gaoyou Water Mansion was not over, but he dared not go into the water to verify it.
This is indeed an excellent place. Not only did Zhang Xuezhou come here, but Gongsun Hong also regarded this area as a blessed land, thus achieving his first close encounter with the Righteous Spirit Chapter.
He was somewhat afraid of Ao Li, but also wanted to take advantage of the convenience of this place.
When he saw Zhang Xuezhou about to go down the mountain, he didn't dare to stay any longer.
"Are you going back now?" Gongsun Hong asked.
"I have to go back," Zhang Xuezhou said. "I'm going to have another bout of dizziness today, so I'll have to find a place to lie down for a while!"
"This head isn't something you can just pry open like that! Those quacks at the Imperial Medical Academy are utterly wicked!"
Gongsun Hong muttered a curse in agreement.
Zhang Xuezhou struggled to reach higher realms and was also plagued by intermittent coma and drowsiness. Even though Gongsun Hong was very wary, he held little reservations towards Zhang Xuezhou and could speak freely about many things.
He was jealous of Zhang Xuezhou's serendipitous fortuitous opportunity, but he never intended to repeat Zhang Xuezhou's hardships.
Many of these issues ultimately turned into words of regret and pity.
"Your cultivation may not reach a high level, but as long as you master Zhongshu's Resonance Between Heaven and Humanity,' it won't be too difficult for you to stand out among your peers. You've learned some Yin-Yang School... formations and alchemy, um..."
Gongsun Hong felt that Zhang Xuezhou seemed to fall into every trap imaginable.
Obtaining the Yin-Yang School's legacy is a great stroke of luck, but inheriting the skills of formations and alchemy is definitely not a good thing.
The idea that formations can destroy the world or that alchemy can make you rich overnight is almost impossible for ordinary people, mainly because of the lack of resources.
Rogue Person and freelancers simply do not have the vast resources to advance the cultivation of formations, and alchemy is a skill that only those with resources can master.
Both of these skills are very expensive, and if Zhang Xuezhou is unlucky, he may not be good at either of them.
Upon hearing that Zhang Xuezhou had not yet constructed a single formation and was only proficient in refining low-grade powders such as Peiyuan Paste and Grain Avoidance Powder, Gongsun Hong was at a loss for words to comfort him.
In short, reaching Zhang Xuezhou's predicament in his spiritual practice is practically a death sentence; struggling or giving up makes little difference.
"If you want to ascend to higher realms, you need to solve the problem of the Heavenly and Earthly Bridges," Gongsun Hong said after pondering. "The Heavenly and Earthly Bridges are almost impossible to repair once they are broken, but I vaguely feel that the Resonance Between Heaven and Humanity mentioned by Zhongshu seems to be closely related to the Heavenly and Earthly Bridges, and it might produce some positive effects!"
I'll try my best!
"You have some connection with that Water Dragon King. Try to befriend him as much as possible in the future. Their ambergris mixed with agarwood can be transformed into high-quality ambergris incense. This ambergris incense, when burned, can be used to fumigate the head and cure ailments," Gongsun Hong said. "When I was in the East Sea, I saw some people with head ailments, and they were cured using this method!"
"Is it enough to just add some agarwood to ambergris?"
"Yes," Gongsun Hong nodded, "Although this method only treats the symptoms and not the root cause, it may give you a false recovery. And since you don't need the Heaven and Earth Bridges to be at full strength at all times when you break through to a higher realm, you only need to break through in this false state, and you'll have a good chance of crossing the threshold!"
"That's wonderful!"
"If one can achieve Resonance Between Heaven and Humanity while burning incense, this pseudo-recovery might last longer, and it's even possible to fully recover!"
Gongsun Hong spoke repeatedly.
What he described was not the truth he had verified, but merely his conjecture.
However, Gongsun Hong could not possibly break his own Heaven and Earth Bridges to test this, and he was not qualified for such treatment, let alone need to cripple himself.
He gave Zhang Xuezhou the methods; whether or not Zhang Xuezhou could implement them was up to him.
He looked at Zhang Xuezhou with great interest, and couldn't help but wonder how Zhang Xuezhou obtained the dragon's saliva, and whether he was able to maintain contact with those dragon kings.
"That's a good idea!"
Zhang Xuezhou nodded repeatedly.
He had previously placed all his hopes on the Life-Creating Pill, based on his experience of consuming the pill.
However, the Life-Creating Pill is extremely precious, and it would be very difficult for ordinary people to obtain it. Even Zhang Xuezhou had no confidence in getting his hands on it.
Gongsun Hong then offered another treatment plan.
Although Ao Li wouldn't like others coming to him for advice, Zhang Xuezhou was still somewhat confident, and top-quality agarwood could be purchased with money.
After thinking it over, he felt that he could meet the requirements.
If Gongsun Hong's plan works, it will undoubtedly be much easier for him to break through to the Divine Ability Realm by combining the Yin and Yang techniques.
Even if his recovery is only temporary, it might only require a short period of recovery to break through to a higher realm.
