Chapter 252: God Refining Technique (Today is my birthday, I hope readers will be happy!)
A large number of low-level monks have entered the secret realm. Even if Lu Cheng is in a state of seclusion and cultivation, with his powerful spiritual consciousness And sensitivity is still there.
The invisible and qualitative consciousness spreads and expands, like the sky seeing and the earth hearing, collecting all useful information in this area.
“This secret realm has only been opened once in a century, so you must seize the opportunity to earn spiritual resources!”
“If you can find rare spiritual herbs, you can join the sect. He even became a disciple of the Shangjing Immortal Master.”
"For a monk with four spiritual roots like me, the avenue can only be taken with the sword! To enter the secret realm, you only need to compete with monks at the same level of Qi training. If you win, you can obtain high-level spiritual materials. This is the only chance. You don't need to The desperate opportunity will not reach me..."
"Before entering, uncle He gave me a map. Just follow the map and you can find a thousand-year-old spiritual grass that should be close to maturity."
While sensing, Lu Cheng's internal practice did not slow down at all. Behind him, a golden giant ape roared at the sun and beat its chest.
However, in the great sun, there was also a huge flame dragon entrenched in it, looking down.
As time went by and more information was received, Lu Cheng gradually knew that he had indeed sneaked into Dingzhang, Tongtian, Lihuo, Xuankong, Jumang, Yuqing, and Dingzhang in the seven worlds of Yin and Yang. Big world.
Tongtian Great World is good at swordsmanship and is a world famous for its sword immortal lineage. The Great World of Yuqing is good at refining weapons and longevity. Secondly, the Great World of Agni Fire is good at the art of fire. There has been an ascended immortal who is good at the art of fire.
The four worlds of Dingzhang, Xuankong, Jumang, and Yin and Yang are relatively mediocre. However, based on the lessons learned from the Chiyang and Qingming worlds in those days, the seven worlds all have the ancestors of the gods sitting in charge. Therefore, the seven worlds are relatively restrained. High-level monks communicate with each other, and even if there is a conflict, they will deliberately suppress the intensity.
Lu Cheng learned all the information about the seven worlds from Jin Ling.
The twenty-four demon gods live in the chaotic star field, and the Tongxuan world is also among them. However, the twenty-four demon gods are all guests of the seven worlds. These demon gods have no control over each other's external relations.
Even if a certain person is in a hostile relationship with one or more worlds, it does not affect other demon gods from interacting with them.
The monks who have cultivated to the realm of Yuanshen are basically pursuing their own ascension, and they will not easily fight to the death with their comrades. However, the twenty-four demon gods have the blood of ancient times, and even the sixth-order Yuanying realm is far more powerful than those in the realm of Yuanshen. The other sixth level demon cultivators are terrifying.
"After three months, the secret realm will be closed. If you want to go out again, you will have to wait for a hundred years. Search for spiritual objects quickly and don't waste time."
"...Three months from now?"< br>
Taoist Lu Cheng in the Duerjin Boat heard the news he wanted to get. He restrained himself and began to perform his exercises with all his strength.
As for the area where the Du'e Golden Boat is located, as long as Lu Cheng releases his own pressure slightly, it will be enough to make all nearby monsters and monks instinctively fear and be reluctant to approach, so no one disturbs his practice. Those who perform meritorious deeds.
Eighty-nine days later, Lu Cheng pressed one hand on his heart and the other on his back, performing nine rounds of exercises to complete his own round of exercises.
Although it has not been fully completed, the ancient Flame Dragon method was used to transform the sun-devouring god ape and the fire was used to transform the earth. The work was quite smooth, but Lu Cheng felt that his meridians were slightly bulging and filling. It seems a bit too powerful and profound for this realm.
From the general outline of Taoism to the Great Five Elements True Spirit Transformation Method, Lu Cheng and his master Huang Longzi have repeatedly deduced it, and the final conclusions are:
It cannot be practiced, because once practiced, it will Can't stop.
You can’t practice because when your practice reaches its peak, the monk’s meridians and physical body cannot bear the load at all. The final result is to explode and die.
Although the magic power improves rapidly and is powerful, it is an unfinished technique. The more you practice, the faster the magic power becomes and the more you injure yourself.
Originally, Lu Cheng had planned to give up this technique, but over the past ten years, through meditating on half of the Yuanshi Demonic Sutra, he had an idea. Although he had not really thought about it, Lu Cheng vaguely grasped an idea. It is possible to cultivate this skill:
As long as you make up for your own shortcomings in the cultivation of spiritual consciousness, of course, it is still far from enough to rely solely on Tian Yanzi’s cultivation of the gods. , but it can already be alleviated.
He has his natal divine power, Qi Hai, and the Samadhi True Fire to protect his body. The most important thing is that Master Huang Longzi is only a first-grade elixir, but he himself is a top-grade elixir.
Therefore, the skills that the master cannot practice may not necessarily be impossible for him to practice. At this moment, Lu Cheng chose to believe in his innate induction and truly began to practice the Five Elements Reform. The worst result is to break the body and dissipate the power. With the protection of the Samadhi True Fire, one can completely repair the physical body and regain life without actually dying.
In the deep mountain forest, a swift shadow flew past, and the green trees concealed a sword light, which shuttled through like lightning.
The flying sword made a whistling sound, and the sharp edge carried a sharp force.
The young man with the iron mask in front frowned, and while dodging and running away, he quickly formed seals with his hands and muttered words. A small green bell flew up, trying to resist the pursuit. flying sword.
锵.
The flying sword collided with the Dharma Bell, making a crisp impact sound, with lingering sounds, and the small green bell fell back and flew back.
Seeing this, a trace of panic and despair flashed in the eyes of the young man with the iron mask. He used Taoist footwork under his feet, leaving deep footprints on the soil. He escaped into trees and earth and rocks from time to time. He tried his best to dodge. , every time he casts a spell, he gathers his full strength.
However, that flying sword seemed to have its own will and could always find his traces at the last moment.
The birdsong in the forest suddenly stopped, as if silent for this life and death duel. The figure of the young man shuttles between the trees, and every time he casts a spell, there is a flash of light, but the speed of the flying sword is faster, and its edge seems to be able to cut through everything, forcing it towards the young man again and again.
Finally, after a hoarse resistance, the flying sword penetrated all the defenses set up by the young man and ruthlessly slashed across his chest, blood flying everywhere.
The eyes under the iron mask gradually lost their luster, and the body flew upside down like a kite with broken strings, landing heavily on the ground paved with fallen leaves.
The flying sword buzzed and flew back to its origin at the master's summons. The blood on the sword was slowly swallowed by the sword, as if this cruel killing had never happened.
The mountain forest returned to tranquility again, with only the fallen leaves stained red by blood seeming to tell what had just happened.
At this time, a young Taoist figure walked out from behind a tree.
Lu Cheng knew that the young man who wielded the flying sword had gone after others, so he walked up to the young man with the iron mask and leaned over to remove the iron mask from his face. Take it off, now he has no need for it.
"I will not intervene in the fight between you. After I use your identity to go out, if your family comes to ask for help, I will give them some compensation."
After speaking, a little real fire fell, and the next moment it burned the young man to nothing, while the fallen leaves around him were not ignited at all.
This young man's name is Tie Xiao, who comes from a small family of casual cultivators. The purpose of entering the secret realm is to take precious medicinal herbs and spiritual objects in exchange for advancement and join a sect to settle down.
This secret realm is open to local monks, but they often cannot compete with those sect monks who have better skills, sword techniques, and magical weapons than them. They often suffer heavy casualties, but every time the secret realm is opened, And there are never fewer of these monks participating.
Being from a lower class, with poor congenital aptitudes, but having some talents, these are the typical characteristics of this type of monks, and they die the most.
The March period is approaching, and the intensity of fighting in the secret territory has also increased significantly.
There are some monks who work together to hide at the entrance of the secret realm in advance to intercept and kill the returning monks. These thick-skinned and sinister people often make a lot of money.
But there are also times when we encounter extremely difficult characters, and everyone is killed in an instant. Even in the same qi training realm, the mana methods may be very different.
Lu Cheng sailed the Ejin boat and smuggled out from the end of the East China Sea. As a result, he suffered serious internal injuries and has not yet fully recovered. At the same time, although he knew through Jin Ling I learned something about the nearby world, but I didn’t know the specifics, so I chose to hide in shadow, show no abnormality, disguise myself as a casual cultivator, Iron Owl, and sneak out of this secret realm.
Lu Cheng chose the time neither too early nor too late, neither too early nor too late. When he walked out of the secret realm wearing a mask, there were already monks in front of him handing over treasures, medicines and spiritual objects one after another. .
There were six alchemy masters standing there, and the pressure on them alone made the junior Qi practitioners present feel frightened and uneasy, not to mention that they were accompanied by one or two spirit beasts who were good at sniffing spirits, or Detective-type magic weapons, as long as they are spiritual objects with a slightly higher level, cannot be hidden in front of them, and ordinary Qiankun bags cannot hide them at all.
After so many years, most monks have become honest and take the initiative to hand over spiritual objects and get their share of profits according to the rules.
Occasionally, if a bold person is caught, he will be killed on the spot. Even a monk from the sect will be executed on the spot for treason.
Today, there was an ordinary-looking monk. His Qiankun Bag even hid the spirit beasts who were good at sniffing spirits. But just when he was about to walk among the people, he was picked up by a white man. The fat blue-robed alchemy master stood in front of him.
The grandmaster didn't say much, just reached out and pulled off a layer of fabric from his Qiankun bag.
The next moment, the spirit-sniffing beasts screamed one after another, and the ordinary-looking young monk knelt on the ground with a pale face.
“Hey, why do you need to take such a big risk at such a young age?”
As he said that, the fat master in blue pressed his palm down, and dark red blood fell from the young monk’s five torso. Guanqi orifices suddenly gushed out and he fell dead on the spot.
This killing made the scene even quieter. It also suppressed the excitement of the young monks who came out of the secret realm.
When it was Lu Cheng's turn, Lu Cheng stepped forward and handed over five elixirs, and then went to the side to be sniffed by these little beasts before he was able to escape.
Standing among the crowd, it was only then that Lu Chengfang secretly spread his consciousness and scanned the six alchemy masters present.
This exploration revealed an obvious difference.
“Everyone’s elixir energy flows smoothly and freely. Actually, each of them is a third- or fourth-grade elixir-forming monk. There is not even a fifth-grade elixir-forming monk, let alone a lower-grade elixir. ”
Bringing disciples of the sect’s qi training realm to explore the secret realm is obviously not something that the sect’s core monks would do. At least in the Tongxuan world, such trivial matters are mostly done by the sect’s alchemy center. It was done by low-grade monks.
In the Dingzhang World, at least Lu Cheng has not seen a monk with a low-grade elixir. Could it be that the level of Taoism in the Dingzhang World is much higher than that of the Tongxuan World?
"There is no sign of this in those disciples in the Qi Training Realm. Although they are more mature and perfect than those in the Tongxuan Realm, they should not have qualitatively changed to this extent. Moreover, the circulation of Dan Qi in these people Smooth, but the Dan Qi is powerful but much weaker..."
Because he was injured and did not understand the specific level of Taoist practice in this world, Lu Cheng chose to pretend to be Tie Xiao and flew back to the mountain gate with the two sect's alchemy masters. Find yourself a spiritual place to stay.
The two alchemy masters are a man and a woman. The male cultivator is just an old man with a clear face and a white beard.
But the female cultivator was a Taoist-robed woman with skin as white as jade, handsome appearance, and curvaceous curves. She seemed to be in her twenties or eighties. Although her face was expressionless, she had a very cold and charming charm.
The old man Qing Kui sacrificed a green leaf, which grew in the wind and turned into a long boat, carrying the younger monks who had walked out of the secret realm alive back to the mountain.
"Uncle Lin, it is said that she has already become a monk in the Alchemy Realm after practicing Taoism for less than 160 years. She has passed the Zifu Realm for a hundred years of hard training. She is really a genius in cultivation. If she can become a disciple of her..."< br>
“Don’t think about it, Uncle Lin Now is the time to be brave and diligent, and we will not consider accepting disciples in the short term.”
These two are inner disciples of Huanyun Valley. Although they have sects, they have no upper divisions. Once they have made a great contribution, they want to take advantage of it to become a disciple of a senior cultivator and gain protection and guidance.
There is a rule in Magic Cloud Valley. For any disciple who returns alive from the secret forbidden area and has a clear master-disciple relationship, as the master, he has the right to take half of the disciple's contribution to the master as a gift of gratitude.
This is to encourage high-level monks to recruit disciples and pass down the Taoism. Of course, it is impossible for monks in the Qi Lianqi Realm to be disciples. At least they are foundation building, and even monks in the Zifu Realm accept disciples. Such a sect The sect, the immortal master, and the disciples all benefit.
Of course, only once.
There were quite a few monks who survived this secret trial. After all, the ferocious monsters nearby had been killed by Lu Cheng one by one, so this was also a hot topic on the Green Boat.
While listening to the whispered conversations of his companions, Lu Cheng discovered some differences between this world and the Tongxuan world:
Xiantian, Qi training, foundation building, condensation, and refining Gang, Jindan, this is the division of the realm of Tongxuan.
Xiantian, Qi training, foundation building, Zifu, Jindan, Yuanying, these are the realm divisions of the Dingzhang realm.
It turns out that the monks in this world, after completing the ninth level of foundation building, do not collect and condense the Earthly Evil Tiangang, but continue to accumulate mana, practice for hundreds of years, and then use spiritual objects or purely rely on their own mana to open up the Purple Mansion. And with this realm, he replaced the condensed Earth Evil Tiangang.
Don’t collect the true breath of heaven and earth to accumulate magic power, and rely purely on your own practice. In this way, the magic power will naturally be pure and run as desired. In this way, Lu Cheng will understand why most of the monks in this world are at the top level of alchemy. They The time spent cultivating in this realm is usually much longer than that of monks in the Tongxuan realm.
In this way, there will naturally be no more four-nine heavenly tribulations, and the consumption of heaven and earth will be greatly reduced. However, it will also reduce the profound achievements of the foundation-building realm, and the subsequent ability to break the pill to become a baby. Difficulty.
In order to be able to carry the Earthly Evil Tiangang, the Foundation Establishment Realm monks in the Tongxuan Realm must thoroughly practice the exercises they have practiced in the Foundation Establishment Realm until their human skills are integrated into one. Only then can they be able to bear the Earthly Evil Tiangang. Counterattack with mana, and then use it as a fulcrum to refine your true form.
After refining the golden elixir, you have to go through forty-nine tribulations, each of which is more severe than the last. A monk who can practice in the past integrates the accumulation of past practice with his own Taoist magic power, and his magic power is much deeper. It is many times deeper than the monks in this world.
But this is not very useful, because no matter how deep the magic power is, the magic power that can be exerted is limited by the realm, the body, and the magic weapon, and at the cost of having no one in the Tongxuan world refine the Nascent Soul for thousands of years, in exchange for this The advantages are hard to say are worth it.
“Condensing the Earthly Evil Tiangang seems to be fast, but if you take one wrong step, the path will be ruined. The other four or nine heavenly tribulations are too heavy. Only one person in ten can survive it. In this way, this world is
No, the other six are more conducive to longevity. The world should also have a similar Taoist system, and they communicate with each other. It is not as closed as the Tongxuan world, and can only seek self-study and enlightenment through the fragments of Taoist scriptures."
Under the carriage of that Ye Lingzhou, The monks from the three sects who survived the secret realm returned to their respective mountain gates.
The Cangyun Mountain Range, located in the south of Qinzhou, stretches for thousands of miles, like a giant dragon lying down. There are three immortal sects entrenched here:
Xuan Mo Sect, Huan Yun Valley, and Haoran Courtyard.
What Lu Cheng incarnates as Tie Xiao wants to worship is Huan Yun Valley. Compared with the Xuan Mo Sect, which prefers the demonic way, and the Haoran Academy, which prefers Confucianism, each has its own unique qualifications for disciples. Relatively speaking, Huanyun Valley, as a Taoist dharma lineage, does not have so many binding requirements.
In the world of Dingzhang, good and evil, Buddhism, Taoism, Demonology, and Confucianism all exist side by side. Although the three sects in the Cangyun Mountains have their own tendencies, they are generally neutral.
To be able to remain relatively neutral in such a chaotic world, it is conceivable that the strength of the three sects in the Cangyun Mountains must be extraordinary.
"Tie Xiao, don't you want to become my disciple? The Rehmannia glutinosa ginseng you picked is very suitable for me. From today on, you will become my disciple."
After arriving at the Cangyun Mountains, suddenly Lin Qinghan, a female cultivator who was one of the two alchemy masters in front, turned around, said this to Lu Cheng, and then flew away.
Lu Cheng was slightly startled when he heard this. He also knew that the Rehmannia glutinosa ginseng he took out was quite neutral in quality and good in appearance, but the Qiankun bag filled with the Du'e Golden Boat and other spiritual objects was really no worse. It was a bit strange, but I didn't expect it to attract the attention of this female fairy.
