Bronze door through time and space

Chapter 466 The real usage of the system

In the Lighthouse Country, Chiba Dosan built a Japanese-style courtyard. It was not too big, but very quiet. However, it now belongs to Yan Xu.

The weaver, who had turned into a palm-sized creature, was weaving a web in the dark, the white fox and the civet cat were playing and fighting in the yard, but Yan Xu was not affected at all and was meditating in the corridor to practice his inner strength.

At the peak of his career, he had achieved perfect golden elixir, and now he has become a god and is also practicing internal skills. What's the difference between this and not going to Peking University or Tsinghua University, but instead going to elementary school to repeat grades and memorize multiplication tables? Most people with brains can't do this.

Yan Xu had no intention of doing so at the beginning. Although he had the idea of ​​slowing down the progress and experiencing the practice process, it was also used to practice the golden elixir method, not martial arts, but basic internal strength.

He is not a fool, nor is he idle. There must be an important reason, and this reason was discovered after he was whitewashed.

Only by demolishing the luxurious houses and exposing the most basic foundation can we truly see the problem, which is what happened to Yan Xu.

At this moment, he was extremely grateful that he was whitewashed, otherwise he would not be aware of his own problems at all, because all the problems were covered up by the piled-up splendor, and who would take the initiative to remove the gorgeous shell to explore the simple interior.

It’s just like praying to God or Buddha. What you are worshipping is the golden body of Buddha. Who cares what’s inside?

Yan Xu often secretly prides himself on his own prudence, and is proud of actively suppressing the growth rate of his own strength. He thinks he is taking one step at a time and is on a solid footing, but he doesn't know that he is a rich second-generation entrepreneur. He thinks he has started from scratch, but in fact it is a ruthless mockery of the lower class.

Why do I say so? Just look at how many years Yan Xu has practiced from the beginning to now and how much he has learned.

From the internal martial arts at the beginning, to internal strength, Taoism, and then to the Earthly Evil Technique and the Golden Elixir Technique, in the meantime, he also involved incense, vows, magic weapons, Dharma bodies, faith, becoming a god, etc. He has achieved considerable results and achievements, and this does not include the influence he has developed in several worlds.

How long did it take him to do all this? Even if you take into account the time difference between different worlds, it was only a dozen years. At only thirty years old, he had achieved what countless people could not do in their entire lives.

After realizing this, Yan Xu broke out in a cold sweat, because this was the biggest problem.

He knew his own level, which was barely average. However, any one of the skills involved would take an ordinary person a lifetime to learn and hone.

For example, those who can be called masters of internal martial arts all have excellent understanding of muscles and bones. Even so, they have to practice hard for ten years and go through hundreds of battles to achieve their goals.

Internal strength requires talent and time. If you don't have a beard, you can't say that you have deep internal strength.

When it comes to Taoism, Uncle Jiu is a ready-made example. He has practiced Taoism for most of his life to have his current strength.

Cultivating immortals takes hundreds of years. Even in a big world like Xianzang, if a disciple of Xuanmen wants to form a golden elixir, he or she will have to practice hard for at least a decade, not to mention the perfection of the golden elixir, because when one reaches this level, even if he or she dies, he or she can still practice as a wandering immortal.

So the question is, how can he do so easily what these people can't do?
It’s just like the second generation of rich people starting a business relying on their parents’ connections and the funds they provide, as well as the capital they can start over at any time without any worries.

Yan Xu relies on the system.

This is very obvious. Without the system, he is nothing. Even if he has twenty more years of memory, he was an ordinary person in his previous life. There are too few valuable things in his memory. Even if he knows some big things, he can't participate in them at all. Even if he is tempered in the society, he can at most earn a small goal and wait for retirement.

The problem is, the system can be a tool, it can be a plug-in, but it cannot replace him.

Everything depends on the system, so who will achieve success in the end, him or the system? Yan Xu is not afraid of the system taking over his body, but he is afraid that he will become a real waste, taking the results brought by the system for granted as the result of his own efforts, then he will be doomed.

The system can be used and relied upon, Yan Xu is very clear about this, because without the system, let alone the heavens and myriad worlds, even in the big world, his improved talent and understanding would have to rank outside the three digits.

Therefore, know yourself, lay a solid foundation, see the future clearly, and move forward steadily step by step with the help of the system. This is the correct way to use the system.

Using a cane to climb a mountain does not mean sending the cane up the mountain; using a computer to work does not mean letting the computer work for you. Don't confuse these two points.

After correctly understanding the relationship between himself and the system, Yan Xu's mind became clear, and his mental cultivation, which had already begun to show results, became even more transparent and more stable.

In spiritual practice, mana is the gasoline, skills are the engine, and mind is the navigation. Therefore, once there is a problem with the mind, the faster you run, the faster you die.

This can be seen from the death ratio of disciples from both the evil and righteous sides.

Yan Xu's repeated changes, inner entanglement and torment, are also a kind of life experience. In this process, he constantly sees himself clearly, knows himself, and acknowledges himself.

When his mind and will are no longer swayed by external things, and he is able to move forward steadfastly in the face of setbacks and temptations, even if there is no road ahead, he will still create a path. Only then can Yan Xu be said to have truly walked his own path and mastered his own way.

In addition to these, Yan Xu's other gain was the improvement of his own qualifications and talents.

Yan Xu's initial aptitude was not good. Not only was it a problem with his character and will, but his muscles and comprehension were also poor. If he had not acquired the physique of a ghost through the system, he would have had to practice hard for three to five years to get started in internal martial arts.

However, by chance, Yan Xu merged some divinity in the strange sea, so that he could finally be called a man of extraordinary talent and amazing comprehension.

These two things are just standard equipment for the protagonist, but Yan Xu went through a lot of trouble to get them. It must be said that God is fair. Knowing that he is hopeless, he gave the system to him.

With these conditions, Yan Xu's road to reconstruction was to choose between taking the high-speed rail or flying from the very beginning.

But now that you have recognized the relationship between yourself and the system, if you don’t change it, you’ll be damned.

Therefore, Yan Xu planned to retrace his original path, to increase his insights and accumulate experience, while also wanting to settle down and make a summary.

He has not reached the highest level in internal martial arts, and has only just started learning Taoism. His internal strength has been idle for years, and even his cultivation of immortals depends entirely on the system. His foundation is so weak that he almost floats away.

Therefore, Yan Xu wanted to summarize the first stage of practice by perfecting the electric current martial arts he created, and then use it as a foundation to embark on the real path of practice.

Only with a foundation can you avoid going astray and walk steadily. Otherwise, you will be going astray from the beginning and still want to walk well.

In addition, he really lacks combat experience. Killing people is not combat experience. No matter how many people he kills, he is just a butcher. Only by fighting with equal opponents, or even strong ones, can he make progress. This is another shortcoming of Yan Xu, because he is too safe and careful. He avoids danger and retreats when encountering danger. Safety is safety, but it makes him weak.

While we are rebuilding, with the true incarnation of God standing behind us, if we don’t give it a try now, when will we?
