"The so-called opening of the Heavenly Eye is the activation of one's Upper Dantian. However, depending on the level to which it is opened, there are initial opening, small achievent, great achievent, and perfection. With the initial opening of the Heavenly Eye, one can see minutely, which ans being able to clearly see tiny things, as small as what is now referred to as bacteria and other extrely small organisms."
The Northern Song scientist and politician Shen Kuo once wrote a book called 'ng Xi Bi Tan', and within it, there is a chapter titled 'Childhood mories'. In it, he stated that he could distinguish the most minute detail, which is because he had initially opened his Heavenly Eye."
Master Xing Yi stood with his hands behind his back, slowly narrating, "Small achievent is the ability to penetrate, to see through multiple obstacles and view the things beyond as if one were looking at them directly, sotis even more clearly. But this step is extrely difficult, so difficult that I have yet to achieve it even after years of cultivation."
"Reaching great achievent ans evolving into the legendary divine powers technique, akin to Erlang Shen, from whose Heavenly Eye beams of light could shoot out, sweeping away all obstacles. As for perfection, I have no knowledge of it. These last two are rely mythological tales, exaggerated and not to be taken seriously."
Xu Hao listened on the side, deeply admiring Master Xing Yi's broad knowledge. What he said matched almost exactly with what Xu Hao had learned from his inheritance, the only difference being that Xu Hao knew what the final step of perfection entailed.
But what Xu Hao admired even more was his magnanimity.
Why has the Huaya martial arts heritage not been able to flourish among the masses to this day?
It's because sectarian views are far too severe!
Everyone treasures their own brooms; everyone believes theirs is the best. Indeed, during the Spring and Autumn Warring States Period, the contention of a hundred schools of thought led to a very important golden age. But tis have changed, and we are no longer in an era of working in isolation."
Consequently, the general public's awareness of traditional martial arts is extrely low, and there are even many who do not acknowledge the existence of traditional martial arts, calling it all a deception."
Li Chenggong and the others, after listening, imdiately felt it was too magical. He exclaid, "Indeed, listening to you is more enlightening than studying for ten years, Master Xing Yi. Please continue."
Master Xing Yi asked, "Xiao You, have you opened your Heavenly Eye?"
"Indeed." Xu Hao did not know whether it was the Heavenly Eye, but there was no harm in claiming it was, after all, observing minute things was just a basic function of his eyes, which could already begin to penetrate, albeit not very clearly.
"That explains it!" exclaid Master Xing Yi. "With such a skill at your side, you too could find a place to stand in the Huaya Fengshui circle."
Xu Hao smiled without saying a word.
Li Chenggong said, "Since this place won't do, let's head to the second location."
Soon, everyone arrived at the second site.
Upon seeing this location, Jiang Xuezhun and the rest felt instantly uplifted.
In front of them was a man-made river about four to five ters wide that encircled the entire area of tens of thousands of square ters, and beyond it lay a lush, verdant hill, offering a beautiful view.
Li Chenggong said with a smile, "With both mountains and water, the scenery is nice. As a film and television base, it should be acceptable, right?"
However, who knew that Master Xing Yi would decisively say, "No! That hill is too low; although the scenery is nice, it signifies weakness in the support of the mountain, leading to finances that not only won't flow smoothly but will initially earn money only to later go bankrupt, losing everything!"
"Ah? How can that be?" Li Chenggong was instantly dumbfounded; he thought the place was quite acceptable.
Master Xing Yi seriously said, "That hill seems to extend into the distance, but in reality, it is just like a wall of hills. Not only are they low, but the lack of taller mountains behind for support will lead to any company here being unable to sustain its financial health in the long run. Therefore, this site is absolutely unsuitable to be a base."
"I really need to study more!"
Li Chenggong's eyes showed a hint of dejection as he suddenly turned to Xu Hao and said, "Xu Xiao You, did you notice the problem with the hills here?"
He thought that if Xu Hao hadn't noticed, it would provide so consolation for himself, which wouldn't be bad either.
Unfortunately, although Xu Hao noticed his intention, he had no thoughts of offering consolation and honestly said, "Of course I noticed."
Li Chenggong was sowhat speechless; couldn't this kid give an old man like a bit of face?
Old Li was a man of integrity, never smooth-tongued, and never considering face in his remarks, but couldn't you, lad, do the sa?
Yet Xu Hao laughed and said, "Elder Master Li, there's no need to feel down; I'll find soone for you to compare with."
"Ah?" Li Chenggong was montarily stunned. Who was Xu Hao going to refer to? This сhаptеr wаs mаdе pоssiblе by thе соmmunity аt
Comparing himself with these three won was even worse than just hitting his head and dying!
But then, Xu Hao looked toward Master Xing Yi and said with a calm smile, "Master Xing Yi, there are mountains and water here—while the mountain has a problem, what about the water, does it?"
"Water?"
Master Xing Yi's gaze fell on the moat-like man-made river, and his expression turned solemn. "Without practice, there is no right to speak. Why don't you join in exploring it for ourselves?"
