Chapter 19: The Flame of Life
When the last group of monks arrived, the five-year-long acceptance of apprentices by the Emperor was considered to have completely kicked off. Five years, for mortals, is a very long, five years, in the mortal world, a lot of things can be changed, small children become big children, big children become young people, marry wives and have children, middle-aged people from straight waists, become bent waist, years are always unforgiving.
But five years, for the monks, it is like a white horse passing through a gap, a retreat, a meditation, maybe more than this time.
What distinguishes monks from mortals is not only the strength of their strength, but also the longevity of their lives.
This is the most direct change after the change in life form.
A monk, at the beginning, he was just an ordinary mortal, but when his innate conditions met the most basic requirements for cultivation, he could carry out simple cultivation.
On the way to cultivation, the first thing to do is also the beginning, that is, to ignite the divine fire, that is, the fire of life, the fire of life, not to say that mortals do not have the fire of life, mortals also have the fire of life, but their fire of life, from the time of birth, was only lit in one cluster.
The flame of life is lit and burning, which is a symbol of a higher life and the most basic condition for a complete life.
As soon as a person is born, he will ignite the human fire in the three clusters of life fire, whether he becomes a mortal or a powerful monk in the future, as long as his life continues, this flame of life will never be extinguished.
But if you want to become a monk, you need to light two other flames of life, namely the heavenly fire and the earth fire.
The three clusters of flames, the human fire represents oneself, that is, one of their own marks in this heaven and earth, so it is also called the fire of the imprint.
As long as the creatures born in this heaven and earth will automatically carry the imprint of this heaven and earth, and the imprint, that is, the completeness of human fire, determines the level of a life's life form. For example, a mortal's life fire is relatively complete, that is, the life imprint is relatively complete, while a mouse, his life imprint, is not as complete as a person, or just a fragment of a complete life imprint.
Heaven and earth are very magical, he created different lives, gave these lives different creations, let them cycle over and over again, and never go extinct.
If a world is all the same people, or the same rats, then the world is destined not to go down forever, there may be prosperity, there will be prosperity, but there must also be destruction, complete self-destruction.
The mark of heaven and earth, there is also a deeper thing involved in this, these things, if they can't reach a certain height, they will never be able to understand it, even if the human emperors who stand at the peak of this world, they can't do it either.
As for the Heavenly Fire, if a monk wants to cultivate, he must ignite another important life fire.
Heavenly fire, also known as the fire of the soul, is high in the sky, can be seen from a distance and cannot be touched, it looks very close, but in fact it is very empty, can not be felt, just like a person's soul, he can make you feel that you are alive, you have a sense of the outside world, you can feel the ups and downs, cold and hot, pain and comfort, but you can't touch him.
The existence of Heavenly Fire gives you an understanding of yourself, your surroundings, the Great Dao, and the heavens and the earth, but if you don't cultivate, as a mortal, then your understanding will always be limited to yourself and the simple changes in the environment around you, and it is impossible to ascend to a higher level.
However, if a monk ignites the Heavenly Fire in the Fire of Life, then his soul will change, it will become stronger and more sensitive, and it will gradually make you understand some deeper mysteries, and from then on, your cultivation will go farther and farther.
Of course, if a person wants to cultivate, the three clusters of life fires are indispensable.
The main yin of the heavenly fire is the fire of the soul, and there will naturally be a corresponding yang fire.
Human fire is the fire of the imprint of a life, the fire of heaven is the main yin, the fire of the soul, and the fire of the earth is the main yang, the fire of the body.
The body, carrying the soul and the imprint of human life, is like the earth, which is virtuous, grows all things, and is full of masculinity.
Ignite the fire of the flesh, gradually develop its supreme potential, and refine a treasure body, just like the earth, carrying everything and containing everything.
When these three flames are all ignited, a monk can be regarded as truly embarking on the path of cultivation, and with the continuous accumulation of time, these three flames will gradually become vigorous and powerful.
Those powerful cultivators who have cultivated to the pinnacle, whether it is the Heavenly Fire of the Soul, the Earth Fire of the Body, or the Human Fire of Life, they are all extremely powerful.
They can borrow the corpse to return the soul, or borrow the soul to return the corpse, if these two conditions are not met, they can also use the human fire of their life mark to be reincarnated and reborn, and start all over again.
When a monk's three flames are strong enough to a certain extent, they are equivalent to three lives. What does it mean to have three lives, it means that there are three chances of life, and with opportunities, it will mean infinite possibilities.
Even if a strong monk does not want to continue to live and gives up hope of life, then after death, his soul and body will be extremely strong. After the soul leaves the body, it can not be dispersed for thousands of years, and the body can not be damaged for thousands of years, and it is still brilliant.
But a mortal will never be able to do this, their life is very fragile, as long as the fire of the life mark is broken, it means death, the oil runs out, the soul will dissipate, the flesh will rot, return to matter, and nothing will exist in this world.
And this is the reason why monks are stronger than mortals, and they live longer than mortals. Because they have ignited the fire of life, they have been constantly accumulating and refining, whether it is the heavenly fire of the soul or the earth fire of the flesh, they are much more vigorous than mortals. Then with this, their vitality will be more vigorous, and the chance of death will be relatively reduced.
But it is by no means an easy task to cultivate all three clusters of life flames to the point of immortality and immortality, and many monks, or in their entire lives, cannot reach this height. They also grow old and die, and when they die, their souls dissipate and their bodies decay.
But in the same way, even if a monk who has reached the realm of the Fountain of Life, after his death, his soul will dissipate, and the speed of physical decay will definitely be much slower than that of a mortal.
But in heaven and earth, there will always be some special existences, some monks, they only pour into one of them, just cultivating the heavenly fire of the soul, or the earth fire of the body. In the end, it will become extremely powerful.
But there are always pros and cons to everything, and when you are particularly strong on the one hand, you must be weak on the other hand, and once discovered by the enemy, he will take advantage of these weaknesses and find a way to restrain them.
And a strong monk should have no shortcomings, he should be as vigorous as the three fires of heaven, earth and man, only in this way can he finally be invincible in the world.
