Crystal Meditation.
It was a practice of mental cultivation.
It involved meditating on the crystal, so that one's mind was free of distractions.
It was a basic meditation, and it was hard to reach a deep level. But it was also the safest and most effective one that many human spiritual masters had devised after exploring countless meditation methods.
Other meditation methods, such as the Buddhist Impurity Meditation or White Bone Meditation, were risky and could lead to madness, with people having delusions and hallucinations.
On the large holographic projection in the training room, a three-dimensional crystal was displayed, shaped like a human.
This human-like crystal was breathing, and at first, its body was full of impurities, but it gradually became clear, and finally it was flawless.
This was the image of meditation.
John was also trying to meditate and breathe, but he still found it hard to enter the state, and his mind was not focused.
This was also a common issue for most people.
"How can I focus and enter the state of Crystal Meditation?" John became more and more frustrated.
But the more impatient he was, the less able he was to focus.
After completing a set of Crystal Meditation exercises, the female teacher "Sister Knife" looked at the thousands of students in the class, her eyes were piercing, and she saw that more than 90% of the students were faking it, breathing fast, heart beating fast, restless, angry. She yelled: "Stop!"
The students all opened their eyes.
Sister Knife was about to scold them, but she changed her mind and said in a calm tone: "What is internal strength? Calming one's mind is internal strength. It's not a palm strike or a foot kick, and everything is flying around. Haha… the ability of the mind to affect matter, how can it be so easy?
"Alright, let's get to the point.
"When you meditate, your mind is wandering, restless all night, your thoughts are racing, and the sky is spinning. This is a very normal phenomenon. Zen masters who have practiced for many years will not be able to overcome this problem. It's not an easy thing to achieve.
"Spiritual practice and cultivation, first, Deep Sleep! Then enter Samadhi! The next step is the Fetal Breath! Each realm is harder than the previous one," Sister Knife waved her hand. "If you don't get it, I won't explain it. Class is over for today!"
When they heard that the class was over, all the students relaxed and waited for Sister Knife to leave the gym room first. Then all the students started to leave in groups.
John was also heading home for dinner.
"John!"
Suddenly, he was stopped, and a tall figure appeared in front of him.
It was Peak Zane.
"What do you want?" John stepped back. He was only 1.75 meters tall. Facing Peak Zane who was 1.9 meters tall, he felt a little oppressed.
This was the pressure from his vitality.
Peak Zane's vitality of 0.9 was too strong, if he fought, even ten Johns would be no match for him.
Students with 0.8 vitality could beat four or five Johns.
A difference of 0.1 in vitality meant a huge difference in physical fitness.
"I heard that you go to the park to feed stray cats every day?" Peak Zane looked scornful, with his hands behind his back, looking down: "Lottie also feeds with you sometimes? I warn you, you better stop this foolish behavior."
"Why do you interfere in my business?" John was a bit angry.
"It's very simple, because of my strength and my family's status." Peak Zane rubbed his hands, his muscles popping, making people intimidated. "Remember, don't argue with me, or I will rip your mouth apart. Lottie is not someone you can get close to, and a toad will never eat swan meat."
"Class leader, class leader," Seeing that John was in trouble, Mike, his best friend, quickly came up to apologize. "Lottie is one of the "Four Goddesses" in the school. How could we ordinary students have such thoughts? By the way, John's younger brother Teddis also leaving school now, and we will go home for dinner together later."
"TeddWalter!" Class leader Peak Zane heard the name, his eyes showed a hint of hesitation, but he still scoffed: "I'm giving you a verbal warning today. If I hear you and Lottie feeding stray cats together again, you will face the consequences."
As he spoke, he turned and left.
"That was close." Mike broke out in a cold sweat. "If Peak Zane hit us, we would have no chance to fight back at all."
"Let's go! He doesn't dare to fight in school." John's expression was grim, and he didn't say harsh words. He knew that he was too different from Peak Zane, and it was pointless to say harsh words, but it didn't mean he would give up.
"Be careful, John. Peak Zane is powerful, and his family is wealthy. If he targets you, I'm afraid it will be bad luck." Mike was very concerned. "I don't think you should go to see Lottie for now. Lottie is a star in our school and her vitality has reached '1'. Her family is even richer. If you get involved with her, you will create a lot of trouble."
"I know, I won't throw an egg at a rock." John's eyes sparkled, he yearned for strength in his heart.
