Chapter 10: The Meditation Principles of Fellow Villagers

Do not search anymore, I am within your body

"Who is it?" Hu Gao, with a face full of frustration, walked to the door and pressed his ear against it. Ningcheng is currently not peaceful, and even women cannot afford to be careless; it is best to remain cautious in all matters.

Hu Gao asked, "Do you know of any methods to accelerate the speed of soul alignment?"

Hu Gao's mind began to race wildly, a tumult of emotions swirling within him—excitement, enthusiasm, tension, shock, and even a hint of anticipation. However, he knew he could not show any signs of weakness; he had to take the initiative in the conversation.

Um, I... I am Qinglian

Hu Gao scratched his head, not expecting to have guessed wrong again. However, judging from the tone of this person's speech, they did not seem to be from another world. It appeared that he had fallen into a fixed mindset. Could it be that this person was from the same place as him?

You are from the Huaxia nation

Well, it seems that I am not completely ignored after all, just as I thought, my hunger is quite intense right now

Xue Te, Hu Gao was smeared in the face by someone and found himself unable to refute it. He had indeed been a bit anxious just now, after all, he was a novice who had just ventured into another world, lacking sufficient experience. He must pay more attention in the future

Hu Gao let out a bitter laugh, realizing that he truly had to wait for one or two months

Just as Hu Gao had finally breathed a sigh of relief, he was once again made anxious by the mysterious voice. He searched the room thoroughly and confirmed that there was no one else here besides himself. This was indeed an incredibly frustrating discovery

What is the situation? Hu Gao opened his eyes, looking dazed. It seems that even the meditation principles of a fellow villager are not so simple; being awakened by someone appears to be quite dangerous. In the future, he will likely need to be cautious in their use.

When Hu Gao opened the door, he saw a little girl who was even shorter than him, dressed in a pure white, somewhat Bohemian-style dress, holding a small basket in her hand, standing at the door with her head lowered and a shy expression on her face

Indeed, humanity is easily blinded by desire, leading to a decline in intelligence. If I do not teach you, why should I bother to nag you? Alright, I will directly engrave the legal decision in your mind. Until we meet again, I hope you do not disappoint me too much!

There is indeed no method to directly align the souls of the two of you; however, I can teach you a meditation technique I have created. If you master it, you will be able to independently consolidate your spiritual energy. I believe that within three to five days at most, your souls will be able to fully align.

However, that person was actually able to engrave consciousness in their own mind, truly a master. Moreover, this move is quite cool, somewhat reminiscent of a scene from the movie "Inception" that I had seen before, where a segment of memory suddenly appears in the mind, and it is very profound, as clear as the various formulas I have memorized in my mind.

However, this places high demands on the soul; those with a high degree of soul compatibility find meditation increasingly easier. The effect of meditation is quite direct: it enhances mental strength, which is to say, the power of the soul

Meditation, which means to extinguish, involves thoughts and ideas. Meditation allows you to pause your thoughts and stop your mental chatter, thereby entering a state of deep sleep and enhancing sleep quality. Once you become proficient, you may even achieve a state of awareness where, despite being in deep sleep, you can still perceive everything happening in the external environment.

After Hu Gao finished reading that section on meditation principles, he nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood. This fellow, a native of Huaxia, truly has talent in his self-created meditation method, which is essentially teaching oneself how to sleep

"I am meditating, is there something you need?" Hu Gao did not rush to open the door

Oh, I can imagine. Next, let me guess who you are. Um, are you the poor spirit of Qinggao, shrunk in some corner after being occupied by my soul? Or perhaps you are the true form of the guardian deity whose soul has been damaged after descending into this other world?

Soul resonance? Hu Gao clearly did not understand what this was

Is Hu Gao there? A hurried knocking sound came from the door, and a faint voice, seemingly that of a woman, was inquiring.

"Fool, do you think it is so easy to occupy someone's body? Although I have helped you erase his soul consciousness, you still need to achieve the final integration with his soul imprint. Only then can you completely become a person of this world and utilize the laws of this world. Do you understand?"

After finishing such a lengthy discourse in a rapid-fire manner, the voice completely vanished from Hu Gao's mind

Hu Gaomian and Tushuse were delighted and couldn't help but ask: "Can you teach me now?"

"As expected of a top student, not too foolish either. Well, it's your good fortune to encounter me, Old Liu. Enough of the idle chatter. The reason you couldn't sense the energy of heaven and earth just now is that your soul has not yet fully merged with the soul imprint of the previous owner of this body. Once the soul imprints of the two of you are completely aligned, you will be able to cultivate normally."

The voice within spoke with a hint of helplessness, stating that it was truly dangerous when crossing the space-time wormhole, and it was a stroke of luck to have preserved its life. The vast majority of soul power that was lost could only be gradually restored in the future

Guess again! That voice sounded very calm, without much fluctuation, as if nothing could affect him

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Hu Gao closed his eyes, focused his thoughts, and shielded himself from all distractions, gradually allowing himself to enter that mysterious and profound space.

Qinglian? The woman's voice is somewhat stammering. Based on her surname, could it be that she had some connection with Qinggao in the past

If it were during my prime, with just a thought, I could immediately make the souls of the two of you resonate. However, in the time-space wormhole, my soul has dissipated too much; now, only less than half remains, and I fear I cannot make your souls resonate in a short period of time

At the moment of relaxation, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck down from the sky. It is often said that it is as fast as lightning; Hu Gaogen had no time to evade and was directly struck, instantly waking up. His entire body felt a tingling sensation, as if he had truly been struck by lightning.

Oh, then there is only one possibility. Hu Gao touched the mysterious jade pendant between his collarbones, raised his left hand, and proudly made a signature gesture reminiscent of Conan, saying, "There is only one truth: you are the spirit of the jade pendant"

As the level of meditation rises, one can even enter a state of timeless meditation, where one is able to meditate at any moment. In an instant, one may fall asleep, yet remains fully aware of the happenings around them, with every rustle of grass and tree clearly audible.

Are you also unable to do anything about it

Oh, I, I am here to deliver food to my elder brother

Hehe

It is unclear how much time has passed, but Hu Gao felt as though he had found himself in an empty expanse, surrounded by nothingness, devoid of any sound or presence. He floated like a white cloud, drifting freely above.
