Chapter 266: Body Talk
While Im going to each person, Im seeing a pattern with the scan that I should have checked on when I first started on this.
Capability and experience.
With 600 people here and with the mass majority being from an impoverished lifestyle, they simply dont have practice in moving qi around within their bodies.
Which means they need detailed instructions on what to look for. Even if they have the body to handle this, they still have done nothing like this before.
After realizing this, I immediately start speaking from where they should start.
For those of you struggling to control your qi, try to first really focus on how the qi is moving into your body. As you are currently using the breathing method, most of it will flow into your nose.
As an example, I give an audibly loud breath in. And then resume speaking.
Visualize and search for that qi that travels in and watch where it is flowing. Of course, you are all already aware of this from the previous exercise, but here is what I want you to change.
I want you to breathe in for four seconds, hold your breath for four seconds, and breathe out for four seconds. Keep your eyes closed while doing this.
Box breathing. A variation on diaphragmatic breathing.
And now for the qi part.
As you breathe in, hold the breath, and release it, you should be able to feel the qi move all throughout your body. I want you to keep a little of the qi you feel in it, behind in your body. Specifically, try to imagine all the parts that its flowing through is absorbing a bit of it. And give it the slight push to go in, if its a little resistant.
I pause, waiting for them to get used to this before continuing.
Some of you have already noticed, but as you do this, your nose isnt the only way qi is now entering your body. Your entire body is breathing in and out Qi. Washing your meridians, the pathways that its traveling in, with it.
Let this all of this in and allow the areas its flowing into also absorb this qi.
Automatically, I can sense a change with all of them.
A nod of my head to her silent question has her rushing over to the first person near her experiencing issues.
On the other side, Shi Ji, the blonde-haired, red-eyed noble, wouldnt be a good tutor at this stage. Perhaps because of her noble upbringing, she might not empathize with others lower than her in a situation like this.
But the redheaded woman from her social group who joined before they did, named Min, will be a good choice instead.
Others that would work out would be the secretive noblewoman and her More Daddy servant, Lin Qiang and Tao Chenguang; Chen and Ju, the two brunette women who I had promised to help in the alleyways, that seem to be good at leading others through things, likely because of their experiences with each other; Ming, the guy who is basically a giant, seems to fit with this, as well. Though, I think his skill comes from his empathy, rather than anything else.
And finally, Yan, the woman who at first glance appears to be morbidly obese but is actually just absurdly gifted in certain areas.
Basically many of these people that my scan had showed had great promise and had joined early on, seem to have good character traits to at least support others.
Of course, several of the yellow sash cultivators are also showing as good choices too. Likely, because they were already used to a team environment and had to go through a form of qi training themselves.
I quickly run to each of them and explain the situation, so they can move to people exhibiting the symptoms my scan had shown.
Out of the 600 people here, over 50-60 needed individual help to stop and recalibrate their actions in the method.
With the information they need, they run out and stop anyone who is sweating. From there, they teach them one by one on what to do and look out for. Another glance at the situation is showing that things are going well and should progress nicely.
Leading me to the third thing that has come up.
The people who excel.
I can see that many of the people are going through the normal time to practice and learn this.
But there are some who practically instantly reached the end of this stage. Waiting for the next step.
With the others, still learning how to progress through this stage.
Should I focus on the geniuses? And let the others raise the others up at the normal pace?
