This can also be considered as following the laws of nature.
However, for most people, the skills they comprehend from the world are at most mid-level. Even if there are some bonuses because they suit themselves, it is far inferior to directly practicing a suitable high-level skill.
The reason why Mellen chose [Heaven’s Heart Belongs to Me] was not because he was really confident in his own understanding, but because this technique, in addition to assisting Gou Zi, could also speed up his comprehension of the rules of the fairy world. Whether it was to complete his own concept rule of “Wolf” or to improve the fairy world’s general knowledge of all realms, it could play a good role.
[Heaven’s Heart Belongs to Me] is divided into nine realms. Each advancement in one level can make oneself closer to the true self of heaven and earth in the fairyland. If one can reach the ninth level, one can truly achieve “replacing Heaven’s Heart with One’s Own Heart”!
However, to achieve this, it is no longer difficult to describe it, it can be said that it is only possible in theory.
The Tianxin disciples of the Tianxin Sect throughout the generations could only advance [Tianxin belongs to me] to the seventh level at most. As for the so-called eighth and ninth levels, they were all just speculations.
The Tianxinzi who competed with the founder of the Jinyu Immortal Sect was already the Tianxinzi closest to the eighth level among all the Tianxinzi in history. It was precisely because of this talent that he was praised by the founder of the Jinyu Immortal Sect as a Taoist master.
If this Tianxinzi is given more room to grow, he may be able to push [Tianxin belongs to me] to an unprecedented height.
Unfortunately, there is no if in the world.
The entire book “Heaven’s Heart Belongs to Me” does not contain any actual practice methods, only thirty-six visualization pictures. It is said that the original version of “Heaven’s Heart Belongs to Me” also contains annotations and insights of successive generations of Tianxinzi, but they are not found in the manuscript in Melen’s hand.
On the title page of the book, there is the evaluation of the annotations of Tianxinzi of all generations by the last generation of Tianxinzi. It is four very down-to-earth characters:… Bullshit!
Because the annotations of Tianxinzi are often irrelevant and even contradictory to each other, reading their annotations will not only not help in practicing “Tianxin Guiwo” but will instead put oneself in a dilemma and unable to escape.
Therefore, the best way to practice [Heaven’s Heart Belongs to Me] is to abandon all the experiences of predecessors and only follow your own ideas. In this way, even if you fail to achieve anything great in the end, you will not go astray.
There is no order for the thirty-six visualization pictures. You can only be considered to have gotten started after completing all of them.
Each of these thirty-six visualization images is very abstract. Some resemble children’s scribbles, some resemble mountain streams, and some resemble the wonders of the starry sky…
At first glance, it seems ordinary, but the more you observe it, the more you can feel its extraordinaryness.
Of course, there are also many people who are unable to comprehend the meaning of the thirty-six visualization pictures. In the words of the Tianxin Sect, they do not have the wisdom and the foundation for practicing “Heaven’s Heart Returns to Me”.
When Melen was choosing a martial art, most of them only had basic introductions, but [Heaven’s Heart Belongs to Me] came with a visualization diagram. Theoretically, anyone who had any feeling for the visualization diagram could at least cultivate the first level of [Heaven’s Heart Belongs to Me]. If there was no feeling, there was no need for those who chose this martial art.
If the person who chooses [Heaven’s Heart Belongs to Me] can cultivate it to the fourth level or above with the help of the manuscript, he can apply to the sect to see the original version of the technique.
The original visualization picture is more realistic.
It took Melen a week to imprint the thirty-six visualization pictures in his mind one by one, and then he began his first formal practice.
As Melen closed his eyes and concentrated, his consciousness entered the empty spiritual space. Then, one visualization picture after another appeared. Every time one picture appeared, the scene it represented would be integrated into the mind, causing some changes in the spiritual space.
The dark spiritual space spreads infinitely, unpredictable, without beginning or end. Time and space are interwoven into unique pictures, which constantly unfold before our eyes and disappear, as unreal yet real as a dream.
Sometimes, you will see a galaxy composed of countless light points, dazzling and bright. They flow slowly, flashing gentle light. Faintly, you seem to hear whispers between the stars, but if you want to listen carefully, these whispers will turn into noisy whispers, making people fall into irritation and confusion.
Inadvertently, the scene will suddenly change, as if appearing on a huge grassland, but all you can see is pale. You can see the breeze caressing the grassland, bringing bursts of grass fragrance, but neither the flow of the wind nor the fragrance can be truly perceived, just like scratching an itch through a shoe. There is obviously infinite vitality in front of you, but there is a sense of desolation and loneliness.
Pavilions and palaces…
Immortals stroll…
The spirit beast looks back…
Flowers bloom and fade…
A dazzling rainbow…
……
……
Thoughts and will are infinitely stretched, deepened, and sunk in the world of the mind…
Everything seems unreal, yet real and indistinguishable.
“Buzz!~”
Mellen suddenly felt his heart tremble, and nine huge and strong chains suddenly tightened. Only then did he realize that his spiritual world had “sunk” a lot without him noticing, as if it was going to go deeper into an unknown realm.
It’s just that because of the anchor point, the changes in the mind are prevented at the first moment.
A flash of enlightenment arose in Melen’s mind. He had already mastered the first level of [Heaven’s Heart Belongs to Me], and just now, he was unconsciously in the process of deepening into the second level.
As the practice of [Heaven’s Heart Returns to Me] deepens, with each level of advancement, the spiritual world will become deeper. The Tianxin Sect also calls this… scale.
Although in the history of Tianxin Sect, there were many Tianxin disciples who were able to break through the barriers one after another when they practiced [Tianxin Belongs to Me] for the first time, for Mellen, he obviously did not need to take risks for this, or prove anything in this way. He only needed to follow the steps and move forward slowly in the safest way.
Melen first checked the time and found that this practice took a whole month. This was mainly because it was his first time practicing and his consciousness was too absorbed.
In addition, this training also allowed Melen to have a deeper understanding of the rules of heaven and earth in the fairy world, and a certain supplement to the concept rule “wolf”, but he had no idea whether that understanding was in line with his own practice.
Melen immediately stopped hesitating and began to practice the first level of [Heaven’s Heart Belongs to Me].
Slowly, Melen’s spiritual world returned to its previous bizarreness. Melen knew that this was not the true state of his mind, but the reflection of the world through his mind.
It can be said that in this state, the secrets of heaven and earth are partially opened to Mellen, and as his spiritual level deepens, they will gradually open up more and more until the true essence of heaven and earth is revealed.
If you really reach that step, it is equivalent to being able to enter the state of enlightenment anytime and anywhere. In this case, it is easy to understand the truth and comprehend the Dharma, and to understand the world clearly.
Of course, even the last generation of Tianxinzi is far from reaching this state where the spiritual world reflects the essence of heaven and earth. Perhaps it really takes the theoretical ninth level or even higher to achieve it.
However, even though Melen is only at the first level now, he can clearly feel that in a state where his spiritual world reflects the universe, his thinking and understanding have improved significantly, and his understanding of the rules of heaven and earth has become more intuitive.
Three months later, Melen had completely figured out all the obstacles in the first level of [Heaven’s Heart Belongs to Me] and began to adjust his mind scale, preparing to enter the second level.
During this process, the dogs stopped their actions and focused all their attention on Mellen under the leadership of Nasus.
The process of going deeper went more smoothly than he had imagined. When his spiritual world calmed down again, he had already reached the second level. The surrounding scenes became more fantastic and unpredictable, but this also meant that the spiritual world’s reflection of the world became clearer.
In fact, the most dangerous part of [Heaven’s Heart Belongs to Me] is when the spiritual scale changes. The most crucial thing is that this is not completely under the practitioner’s control.
Perhaps during a certain unintentional practice, the spiritual scale will quietly deviate. In this case, one can either rely on tenacious consciousness and a strong mind to forcibly reverse the spiritual scale; or one can only allow the spiritual scale to penetrate into a new level and see if one’s own will can withstand the assimilation of heaven and earth brought about by the clearer reflection.
Of course, more often than not, practitioners of [Heaven’s Heart Belongs to Me] have no choice at all, and often end up destroying themselves in the process of practice.
