Chapter 211  Trying To Cultivate

'Sit in a lotus position, both hands placed in front of the abdomen, right hand resting above the palm of your left hand, press the two thumbs against each other and meditate while reciting the mantra and following the breathing technique.'

Roland recalled the method written on the third page and followed them strictly.

After he did as the book has told, Roland finally closed his eyes to start meditating.

At the same time, he also recited the mantra deep inside his head as he followed the breathing technique that was also mentioned in the third page of the Universal Cultivation method.

All his life, this was the first time that Roland had tried meditation.

And unlike normal ones, this meditation was not easy. He would need to do three things at once while in the meditative position in order for this to work.

One, he must recite the mantra over and over again. Two, he must recite the mantra while doing the breathing technique, with each interval different from the last. Lastly, while doing the two together, he must also try to sense the Heaven Energy around him.

If he was able to, he would then 'beckon' for them to come to him, and slowly absorb them towards his 'lower dantian', that according to the book, the area below one's navel.

As they say, cultivation was not an easy thing. This was only the start but one would need to multitask already.

'The Universe as your furnace, the stars as your weapon, and the planets as your meridian, cultivate the ultimate secret and control Heaven as if it is your own…'

Roland recited the mantra slowly. Surprisingly, Roland got the hang of it almost instantaneously. Not even a minute had passed and he was already deep in meditation. His mind was already clear of distractive thoughts, and the only thing that he was thinking right now was the breathing technique and the mantra that he has recited.

Now, he only needs to sense the Heaven Energy around him, and he would then be able to start his cultivation journey.

According to the book, the Heaven Energy was scattered all over around you. Other cultivators would describe them as specks of light floating around them as they meditated, while the others would term them as fireflies of atmosphere.

After a few minutes, Roland entered an unknown state. His breathing was in symphony with the mantra that he was reciting. However, at this time, Roland was no longer doing it with the consciousness of his mind. Rather, it seemed like his body and mind was doing it automatically, as if these two things were something natural.

On the other hand, his consciousness seemed to have floated above his body as well, making Roland feel a little marvelous. Curiously, Roland looked around him and searched for the so-called speck's of light that was the Heaven's Energy.

However, even after a few minutes of looking around him, he only saw the room, devoid of any specks of light that the book has mentioned.

Roland did not give up yet, he thought that maybe, those specks of light were not in this room. He tried to move forward, but the next second, he realized that he was stuck. He could not move forward, sideward, or even backward. It was as if he was stuck on his own body, unable to move around freely.

With that, Roland could only give up on exploring around the room. After looking the final time and still not finding the specks of light, he finally decided to stop.

He opened his eyes and sighs in disappointment, "Looks like Carrol and Razor truly did not lie, Heaven Energy truly doesn't exist in this place."

At this time, Roland was disappointed at not being able to cultivate. However, if the other cultivators knew that he managed to arrive in the sensing state minutes after he started meditating, they would surely cough out a mouthful of blood in anger.

'It took us months if not years of meditation before we could arrive in that state, and yet here you are complaining about not having Heaven Energy to cultivate?'

'If there was Heaven Energy, would you be able to absorb and refine them directly on the first try as well?'

It was fortunate that none of them was aware of this situation. It looks like their pride as cultivation geniuses won't be shattered for the time being.

One must note that a genius cultivator would need a month of constant meditation just to sense the Heaven Energy around them.

As they say, the shorter you sense Heaven Energy, the more of a genius you are.

Roland managed to do it within minutes on his first try. It was just unfortunate that there was truly no Heaven Energy in this place, making his shocking progress go to waste.

At this moment, even Roland himself was not aware of his monstrous cultivation talent yet.

After exiting the meditative state, Roland rested and stretched for a bit before he went to wake Stacey up for their morning run. Although she could skip an exercise today, Roland doesn't want her to skip on the morning run as well.

When he returned to his room, he saw Stacey was still sleeping soundly.

He looked at the clock and realized that it was already quarter to five in the morning. He sat gently beside her, giving her forehead a gentle kiss before he slowly nudged her shoulders to wake her up.

Not long later, Stacey's eyes finally opened slowly. The first thing she saw in the morning was Roland's handsome and smiling face, she felt pretty good already. Her mood was boosted as she extended her arm, as if asking for a hug.

Roland laughed and pulled her up from the bed instead. Seeing Stacey pout, Roland finally gives in and gives her a tight hug. Stacey's mood was immediately brighter right after.

As they say, humans were pretty simple creatures. Even a small thing or small action could make a human feel emotional. Especially for humans who were in love. A slight action might result in a good ending, and another slight action might result in a bad one.

Anyways, after their tight hug, Roland told Stacey to get ready for the morning jog. After explaining his reason why he did not wake her up for the exercise, Stacey finally changed into her jogging clothes as they made their way downstairs right after.

Below, Butler Frank and Housekeeper Stella sent them off with a big smile.

In the gate, Janine was already waiting, a bit of sweat was noticeable on her forehead as it seemed that she was already done with her warm-up.

After helping Stacey do some stretches, the three of them finally started running together.

Of course, as usual, Roland went ahead of them as they were already tired after almost fifteen minutes of running.

After leaving them behind, Roland sprinted ahead to complete his quota of 10 kilometer run per day. Roland returned almost fifteen minutes later.

At the distance, he saw the two girls being surrounded by men in blue uniforms.

Roland frowned at the sight of this and hurriedly sprinted over to see what was going on.

While he was sprinting, Stacey noticed him and gave him a wave.

"Roland, you're here. Nice timing," Stacey commented as she heaved a sigh of relief.

"What's the matter?" Roland asked, arriving in front of them.

At this moment, there were five people in blue uniforms standing in front of Stacey and Janine.

Roland made a quick scan and noticed that they seemed to be company's recent affairs and immediately cut off their previous dealings with the Protect Life Security Company.

wearing a guard uniform, which was obviously different from the one that the guards were wearing before.

He then recalled what Fred had told him yesterday.

The management of Sea Anemone District learned of the security company's recent affairs and immediately cut off their previous dealings with the Protect Life Security Company.

'Are they the new security company that replaced the Protect Life Security Company?' he thought amusedly.

"Roland it's like this. While we were jogging earlier, these five men suddenly came to us and told us that we are not allowed to jog here as this is private property and that the owner of the villa's here might get offended," Stacey explained the matter to Roland.

Hearing that, Roland finally more or less understood the whole situation now.

However, Stacey was not done explaining.

"When we told them that we were actually living in one of the villa's here, they did not believe it and said that we were talking nonsense," Stacey said with a pout as she went forward to grab Roland's arms while looking at him with pleading eyes.

Roland knew that Stacey wanted for him to deal with these guys, so he could only shake his head and do his best.

"Ma'am, it's not that we don't believe you. We truly believe that you are one of the people who live in the villa's here, but the area that we are in right now is owned by the richest person of all the villa's around here."

"We are tasked to monitor this area twenty-four seven and that if any individual comes close, even if it's the owner of the other villas, we must inform them to leave immediately or else the owner of the Pure Dew Villa might take offense from it."

One of the blue uniformed guards' explained with a serious tone.

Hearing that, not only Roland, even Janine and Stacey felt amused.

Stacey laughed and stated, "Well, it looks like this is just a big misunderstanding!"
