Chapter 55: On Practice
There are many myths and legends on the earth, and they are divided into three factions, one is Chinese Confucianism and Taoism, the second is Buddhism, and the third is God belief. Chu Yun had also consulted related books in the university library, and he found a very interesting place about the contest of believers.
This reminded Chu Yun of a strange story he had heard in the world of cultivating immortals, that is, in some galaxies where spiritual energy was lacking, people used the power of faith to cultivate, in fact, in this world of cultivating immortals with abundant spiritual qi in the universe, it was shameful to use the power of faith to cultivate, and it was included in the cultivation method of evil cultivation.
For example, he heard a story from his master that on a planet without aura, a mouse was enlightened by an immortal who came to this planet to have a mind, and then the immortal left, and the mouse used some simple spells taught by the immortal to fool mortals, and later mortals regarded this mouse as a god, and also built a temple for it, and the incense continued.
Later, the rat found that the more people who believed, the higher its mana, so it tried to make the people of the whole planet believe in it, for each believer, when he believed in the rat, he actually established a spiritual connection between his own luck and the mouse, and the strong side could suck the luck of the weak side, including human vitality, spiritual power, strength, speed, and so on.
It is equivalent to offering his entire life to the mouse like a sacrifice, and the mouse has also used the power of these beliefs to successfully cultivate into an earth immortal, but when it breaks through the earth immortal, the people of the entire planet have been sucked dry by it, and only a few people who do not believe in it survive.
It's like raising a pig, at the beginning they are well fed and slept well, but the owner may have to give their whole life when they need it, those believers will make some wishes or requests at the beginning, and the mouse will use mana to help them achieve it, until these people are completely domesticated, usually the mouse can occasionally give them some mana or help them fulfill a wish, but the end result is to make them pay for their whole life.
Chu Yun didn't dare to make a conclusion about the religions that existed on the earth, after all, he was not familiar with this world, but Chu Yun didn't dare to agree with the Elysium or Heaven and Hell that these religions said, maybe these places were another planet, and they were planets with abundant spiritual energy, but if you want to reach such a planet, you have to cross the cosmic barrier, and the objective condition for crossing the cosmic barrier is to cultivate to reach the cultivation level of the earth immortal.
Could it be that there is a strong person who cultivates as an earth immortal who regularly comes to the earth to collect people? Or is there a teleportation circle?
The magic circle Chu Yun has only learned a little superficially, he only knows that if he wants to pass through the cosmic barrier between galaxies, the general magic circle cannot be realized, this requires extremely huge spiritual power support, and it is impossible to achieve it with the existing conditions of the earth.
Or maybe this earth has secrets that no one knows......
Chu Yun's thoughts were spinning, and he thought that the ascension mentioned in this world should be that the cultivation from the spirit person broke through to the Xuan Immortal, because the first level of the Xuan Immortal realm is to control the qi, that is, he can fly, but he still can't break free from the shackles of the cosmic barrier, so Chu Yun suspected that the person who was going to break through to the realm of controlling the qi, thinking that he was going to ascend, but in fact it was not.
In the world of cultivating immortals, the ascension of cultivation is divided into two stages, which are human beings and immortals.
Human cultivation is further subdivided into two levels: warriors and spirits.
The cultivation of immortals is further subdivided into three levels: Xuan Immortal, Earth Immortal, and Heavenly Immortal.
Let's talk about the human stage first, the martial artist is divided into five stages, the first layer of skin refining, the second layer of meat refining, the third layer of bone refining, the fourth layer of refining marrow, the fourth layer of consummation realm can be washed and cut the marrow, and then enter the fifth layer of internal strength, and the cultivation here can be called a half-step innate.
If you break through the internal strength of the fifth layer, you will officially enter the innate realm, and you will become a spirit.
The spirit is also divided into five stages, the first layer is inward, the second layer is Xingqi, the third layer is Bigu, the fourth layer is Neidan, and the fifth layer is Jindan. Jin Dan will be punished by heaven, and after passing the heavenly punishment, he will officially become an immortal, which can also be called an immortal, but it is not a flight to the immortal realm, but the body has been promoted from a mortal to an immortal.
Xuan Immortal is the lowest level of immortals, and then there are earth immortals, and there are heavenly immortals above, and then there are saints, but even in the world of cultivating immortals in the center of the universe, those who cultivate to reach the earth immortals belong to the ancestor level, and even fewer who have reached the heavenly immortals, they are all emperors, as for the saints, under the heavenly dao, there are only nine saints, not to mention that Chu Yun only knows seven saints.
Cultivation is out of reach, especially above Xuan Xian, which reminds Chu Yun of the idol Qingyun Emperor who is worshiped in the world of cultivating immortals, Qingyun Emperor is one of the few mortals who has cultivated to the Heavenly Immortal within a hundred years, he achieved it step by step from a martial artist through his own efforts, and the love story of Qingyun Emperor who searched the universe in order to find his missing wife also made Chu Yun yearn for it even more, and secretly vowed in his heart to learn like Emperor Qingyun and find his senior sister.
Just when Chu Yun was thinking about it, in a corner of the void of the universe, Emperor Qingyun was lying on a huge flying sword and drinking a little wine, and suddenly he sneezed violently, Oh I go, I haven't seen a sneeze for hundreds of thousands of years before, why do you keep sneezing recently.
Emperor Qingyun couldn't help muttering in his heart, who still remembered Emperor Ben, so he pinched his fingers to see who was thinking about him. This is not that I don't know, I was shocked, Emperor Qingyun calculated that this person who was worried about him turned out to be an earthling, you must know that he was also a part of the earth a long, long time ago, but then he went to the cultivation world by chance, and cultivated into a heavenly immortal.
He originally thought that the first thing he would do after his cultivation was to go to the earth to see, but his wife suddenly disappeared, and he forgot about it after looking for his wife for thousands of years, so he decided in his heart that he would go to the earth to see after exploring the planet below, but the location of the earth is too remote, even with his immortal cultivation, it will take several years to reach the earth without stopping.
However, for the immortals who have lived for tens of millions of years, a few years have passed in an instant, and Chu Yun on the earth does not know that the object of worship in his heart has decided to come to visit him, and Chu Yun, who does not know it, continues to collect medicines, saying that this Kunlun Mountain is really the ancestor of ten thousand immortals, these medicinal materials are really many, and it is also thanks to the fact that they have not been developed, otherwise these medicinal materials will not wait for Chu Yun to collect.
Finally, Chu Yun felt that the medicinal materials were basically enough, so he didn't continue to walk into the mountains, so he turned around and went down the mountain, and after a short time, he arrived at the foot of the mountain, there was a park here, it was now evening, and the park was already a little deserted, Chu Yun was about to play a set of fists here and then leave, when suddenly a miserable scream attracted Chu Yun's attention.
