Chapter 4: The Dream of Eternal Life
Then, the beautiful woman in white glanced at the things she took out, and then said to the four scrolls that looked very quaint: "Among the four scrolls, the pale cyan one is a practice law, called "Xuanyuan Tianjing", and the other three golden, blue, and cyan are all spells. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”
After introducing the scroll, the woman in white then pointed to the thick black book and said, "That book is called "Miscellaneous Classics of Cultivation", which records some basic common knowledge about the cultivation realm, and after you read it, it will be of great help to you to quickly understand the cultivation realm. ”
"As for those over there, they are spirit crystals, which contain the aura of heaven and earth, which can assist in cultivation, and you can use them in your cultivation in the future."
The woman in white finally pointed to the pile of small stones that glowed with milky white light and said indifferently.
"Okay, go back and meditate well, don't cause trouble. Although your qualifications are not good, but after all, you will be regarded as a person of cultivation, and you have abilities that ordinary people can't reach, as long as you don't take the initiative to provoke right and wrong, and be a low-key person, you will be prosperous and rich in the mortal world in the future, and you will be safe and secure, and enjoy yourself comfortably for a lifetime, there is still no problem. ”
After speaking, before the words fell, the beautiful woman in white flew away.
The woman in white said that she would leave, and in the blink of an eye, she disappeared into the moonlight.
This mysterious woman suddenly fell from the sky, and now she quickly flew away, Zhong Yong seemed to have a dream.
"You don't have to tell me yet, what's your name?"
After Zhong Yong came back to his senses, he shouted in the direction where the woman disappeared.
However, only his own echo came back to Zhong Yong's ears.
However, just when Zhong Yong was disappointed, suddenly three words faintly reached Zhong Yong's ears.
"Cold... Sky... Month.... ”
At this time, the words "Leng Tianyue" loomed in Zhong Yong's ears and lingered.
"Leng Tianyue, it turns out that your name is Leng Tianyue, but you really look down on me, can I really only enjoy glory and wealth in the mortal world, and live a stealing life?" Zhong Yong muttered in his mouth.
After a while, Zhong Yong shook his head slightly and didn't think about it anymore.
Then he solemnly put a few scrolls and books in his arms and put them away, and then put part of the spirit crystals on the ground into the bamboo basket, and if he couldn't put the rest, he took off his clothes and wrapped them in his clothes.
When he was cleaning up, Zhong Yong counted it, and there were a thousand milky white spirit crystals.
After everything was cleaned up, Zhong Yong's figure slowly disappeared into the night.
……
In a slum in the west of Heilan City, in a dilapidated house with few pieces of furniture and even some leaky air and light, a young man was sitting inside, holding a book in his hand and reading hard.
This young man is Zhong Yong, and today is the third day that Zhong Yong has returned to Heilan City.
Back in Heilan City, Zhong Yong sold more than ten herbs to Yaotang the next day, and after changing some rice and noodles, he never went out, staying at home to read the "Miscellaneous Dictionary of Cultivation Truth" given to him by Leng Tianyue.
Zhong Yong read it with relish and was fascinated.
In the past three days, Zhong Yong was hungry and thirsty, so he made something to eat at will, and continued to watch after eating, but he was really sleepy and slept on his stomach on the broken table at home for a while, and continued to watch after waking up.
Through three days of reading, Zhong Yong also has a certain understanding of the matter of cultivating the truth.
Regarding the spiritual root, Zhong Yong had already learned something from Leng Tianyue's words before, such as the level of the spiritual root, but as for why people can only cultivate the truth if they have a spiritual root, the truth Zhong Yong is not very clear.
But this Zhong Yong has already found the answer in the classics.
It turns out that cultivators are different from ordinary mortals, and cultivators will have a space in their bodies, and this space is called the Spirit Sea.
Of course, for this spiritual sea, the three realms of immortals, demons, and Buddhas have different names for it. Immortal cultivators call the spiritual sea in their bodies the immortal sea, while demon cultivators call the spiritual sea in their bodies the demon sea, and as for the Buddha cultivators, they are called the Buddha Sea.
And whether it is the Immortal Sea, the Demon Sea, or the Buddha Sea, their nature is the same, it is the place where the cultivator stores his spiritual power, and it is located in the dantian part of the human body. Every cultivator has it.
And this is very important for cultivators, the spiritual sea used to store spiritual power, it is transformed by spiritual roots.
Therefore, if there is no spiritual root, there will be no spiritual sea, and without spiritual sea, there will be no way to store spiritual power in the body, and there will be no way to store and accumulate spiritual power, so naturally there will be no cultivation of truth.
Zhong Yong now has a certain understanding of the cultivation realm of cultivators, from low to high, they are the Qi cultivation period, the transformation yuan period, the Tianjing period, the True Dan realm, and the Yuan infant realm. As for whether there are other realms above the Yuanying realm, there is no record in the book.
In the Qi cultivation period to the five major realms of the Yuan Infant Realm, each realm can be subdivided into multiple small realms, among which the first stage of a cultivator's cultivation is the Qi cultivation period, and it has nine layers.
Also, in the past few days, Zhong Yong has also obtained a very important information for him from this "Miscellaneous Dictionary of Cultivation", that is, even if he has three spiritual roots and the ability to open up three spiritual seas, then he can't open up three spiritual seas at will and practice three exercises. Because once he opened up a spiritual sea and cultivated a kind of exercise, then he had to keep cultivating.
According to the book, if a person has two or more spiritual seas in his body at the same time, then he must ensure that these spiritual seas can be in a state of balance, to put it bluntly, the spiritual power cultivation in these two spiritual seas must be about the same.
Zhong Yong now has a "Xuanyuan Heavenly Scripture" given to him by Leng Tianyue in his hand, and this "Xuanyuan Heavenly Classic" Zhong Yong will practice next.
And because Zhong Yong has three spiritual roots, if he gets other exercises in the future, he can still cultivate, but once he cultivates, he must continue to cultivate, and the two exercises must also go hand in hand, and the gap between each other's cultivation must not exceed three small realms at most. And once the disparity is too great, the balance between the two spiritual seas will be lost, squeezing each other within the body, and in serious cases, it is very likely to explode and die.
Therefore, for Zhong Yong, he must be cautious about this problem, even if he has the opportunity, he cannot easily practice other exercises.
Of course, Zhong Yong has also realized that his spiritual root qualifications are poor enough, and each spiritual root is only a first-grade spiritual root. For his spiritual root qualifications, it may be difficult to cultivate one kind of exercise, and if he is distracted and concentrates his energy on cultivating other exercises, the final result may really be nothing.
Although it is not directly stated in the book, Zhong Yong can still deduce from the description in the book that the vast majority of those with poor spiritual root qualifications in the cultivation realm will not be able to cultivate to the Transformation Yuan Stage in their lifetime, and most of them will still stay at the fourth or fifth level of the Qi cultivation period until they die, and the five or six layers if they are high.
In the cultivation realm, the first-grade, second-grade, and third-grade spiritual roots are all lower-grade spiritual roots with poor qualifications. And Zhong Yong's first-grade spiritual root, among the lower-grade spiritual roots, is undoubtedly the worst one.
At this point, Zhong Yong understood that it was no wonder that Leng Tianyue would say those words to him before leaving, so that he would not provoke right and wrong, and enjoy the glory and wealth of the world with peace of mind.
Of course, this is just Leng Tianyue's personal opinion, whether Zhong Yong listens to it or not, that is another matter.
However, for Zhong Yong, he learned more about him at this time, but unconsciously set a goal for himself, that is, he must cultivate to the "Transformation Yuan Period" in this life, even if he pays a lot for this, he will not hesitate to go through a lot of hardships.
Because Zhong Yong has realized that although the cultivation realm is dangerous and full of crises, it is also strange and magnificent, after learning this, how can Zhong Yong give up easily and be willing to be mediocre?
In fact, Zhong Yong is not a person who is willing to be mediocre, he is very desperate, and when he was more than ten years old, he went to the dangerous mountains to collect medicine and desperately earn money. However, his previous dream was to become a rich local tyrant as soon as possible, live in a mansion as soon as possible, marry a beautiful wife, and accept a beautiful concubine.
In addition to not being willing to be mediocre and desiring for strength, wealth, and status, in fact, Zhong Yong has always had a dream in his heart, that is, he hopes that he can live longer, and if he can live forever, it will be better.
Zhong Yong has such thoughts, which are related to his experience.
Because he had witnessed the death of Old Man Shi, and before Old Man Shi died, he was riddled with serious diseases and tortured by illness. Although Zhong Yong was still young at that time, Zhong Yong was impressed.
In addition, before Old Man Shi died, Zhong Yong could clearly feel that Old Man Shi did not want to die at that time, and he was full of nostalgia for this world.
The scene at that time often lingers in Zhong Yong's mind even now, so Zhong Yong always thinks in his heart, if everyone can not get sick and be immortal, how good it would be!
And now by reading the "Miscellaneous Dictionary of Xiuzhen", Zhong Yong knows that through Xiuzhen, it is possible for him to realize this wish of his, so that he will not be riddled with diseases.
As for immortality, it is estimated that only true immortals can do it, but through cultivation, you can at least increase your longevity and live longer.
Knowing this, how can this make Zhong Yong not excited and yearning?
Regarding the longevity of the cultivator, it is also clearly stated in the book that it is closely related to the cultivation of the monk. For cultivators, the higher the cultivation, the stronger the strength, and the longer the lifespan. If a monk's cultivation can break through from the Qi cultivation period to the Transformation Yuan stage, then his lifespan can also be doubled, and it can reach an astonishing three hundred years.
For this reason, there will naturally be countless people like Zhong Yong.
Although the book "Miscellaneous Classics of Cultivation" records some common sense, but the content is very rich, in addition to the introduction of spiritual roots, exercises, spells, etc., there are also some records about magic weapons, demon beasts, talismans, etc., of course, the records are also some common sense.
Seven days, it took a full seven days, Zhong Yong finally finished reading the book "Miscellaneous Classics of Cultivation", and completely digested and absorbed the knowledge in it, and memorized it in his mind.
On this day, Zhong Yong finally closed the book he had been holding for seven days, and then slowly raised his head.
Although Zhong Yong spent most of the time immersed in hard study during the past seven days and failed to get a good rest, his eyes were still bright and wise. Although his face was expressionless and his expression was dark, there seemed to be a charm in his body, as if it was a little different from before.
Yes, Zhong Yong has changed.
Although Zhong Yong had not yet cultivated the cultivation techniques and spells at this time, his horizons had been greatly broadened at this time. Vision and insight can sometimes deeply affect a person's temperament.
Yes, Zhong Yong has changed, and he may not have realized it himself.
However, at this moment, he is gradually coming out of thousands of mortals.
Just don't know how far he'll be able to go in the end?
