A red sun rose as usual, shining between the green mountains and green waters, but at this time, this landscape seemed extraordinarily quiet, a river flowed quietly, and under a willow tree by the river, a man was concentrating on meditation and cultivation.

Since the last time he came back from the outer heavens, Zhang Ling has stayed in this landscape for another two years, and he has consolidated all the exercises he has learned before through these two years.

The power of the Star Diagram and the True Qi of the Divine Vein was also raised to another height by him, and even the mysterious Martial God Body gradually had a breakthrough momentum after two years of condensation.

Finally, Yunzong, Huang Yan, Baihu, and Brother Eagle spent most of their time in the Kunlun bag, and occasionally came out to communicate with Zhang Ling.

The Kunlun bag is an artifact, and these spirit beasts have been in it for a long time, and it seems to have had an effect, and everyone's spiritual power has been greatly improved.

Perhaps one day in the future, the eagle eagle and the white tiger will also be able to transform into human form and embark on the path of true monasticism.

Today, after Zhang Ling finished his daily cultivation, he thought that he seemed to have reached a bottleneck, and it was time to find an opportunity to break through his cultivation.

And the best way is to choose to cultivate in the Heavenly Bead, which contains endless creation, a space of its own, although it is not as mysterious as the Outer Heaven and the Lingyang Secret Realm, but it contains Zhang Qian's spiritual power to the Holy Realm, which is the best help for Zhang Ling, and can prevent the Heavenly Bead from devouring his cultivation.

"It seems that those three people can't rush back in a short time, so I might as well enter the Tongtian Bead to cultivate for a while and see if I can break through to the next realm?"

Zhang Ling got up suddenly, took out the Tongtian bead that had turned into the size of the usual bead, and threw it into the air.

"The spiritual power in this spiritual bead seems to have decreased, it seems that although the spiritual power of my father-in-law is abundant and strong, it can't stop the continuous encroachment of this orb, if I want to take this spiritual bead for my own use in the future, either I have to cultivate to a higher realm, or, I have to find a matching mirror of the earth. ”

Zhang Ling returned to the Tongtian Bead again, and found that the spiritual power inside had been slowly decreasing, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart, but after his estimate, the spiritual power in it could last for at least three or five years, and no one knew what would happen in these three or five years.

"I'm in the late stage of the Void Realm now, but my accumulation is too strong, and it seems impossible to break through to the Imperial Qi Realm at once, so it seems that I can only try to reach the strength of the peak of the Imperial Qi Realm.

Now without the guidance of the elders, I can only rely on myself. ”

According to the current situation, Zhang Ling made a cultivation plan for himself, he looked around, and secretly made up his mind that he must persevere, so that he can contribute to this world or the people he cares about.

The Void Realm, compared to the Transformation God Realm and the Imperial Qi Realm, is relatively speaking, a realm that tests comprehension, unlike the two realms before and after, which require an extremely strong burst of strength to exert their own strength.

The most important thing in this realm is the comprehension of the laws of space and the void, and in the continuous cultivation, improve the perception of one's own spiritual consciousness and primordial spirit, so that it can easily shuttle and fight in the void passage and even the void plane.

With Zhang Ling's current strength, although he can easily shuttle through the Void Passage, he can't keep it for a long time, and he can't fight in the Void Passage for a long time.

This is because his true qi has not yet reached that level, and the reason why the true qi of the immortals is called mana is because it contains the power of the law, and with the use of mana, not only can he shuttle freely in the void plane, but he can even use the power of the primordial god to condense a small world like Tongtianzhu.

The last time Zhang Ling just got the Tongtian bead, he communicated with Yuan Lao, saying that he had the idea of condensing his own small world, but he was poured cold water by Yuan Lao, thinking that with his current strength and realm, it was too early to condense his own small world.

However, in Zhang Ling's view, it is true that everything is at the beginning, but if you don't give it a try, how do you know that you don't have that potential?

Today's Zhang Ling is thinking about improving his realm all the time, especially after meeting a mysterious person, so that he has a deeper understanding of people in the high realm, the other party is just a wisp of spiritual sense, and he is fighting so hard, if it is a real body, I am afraid that he will be done long ago.

Therefore, you must not follow the steps step by step, you must have the means to surprise and temporarily restrain people who are higher than your own realm, so that you can have time to escape.

As for people who are lower than their own realm, the small world is a very lethal means for them, in short, if they can condense the prototype of a small world in the realm of sending the void, it will definitely be beneficial and harmless to Zhang Ling.

"During this time, I went towards two goals, first, to reach the peak of the Void Realm, and second, to try to condense my own small world. ”

Thinking of this, Zhang Ling set two small goals for himself in his heart, and flew to the height of the Heavenly Bead, above the extremely high clouds, Zhang Ling overlooked a small world below, and seemed to have an understanding, and then a burst of inspiration gathered the spiritual power of his stepfather.

After a while, Zhang Ling was bathed in a burst of spiritual power, and he gradually closed his eyes, trying to observe the world with his spiritual sense, that is, his mental eye.

Maybe this will help him to condense his own little world.

In this way, Zhang Ling sat here for two hours, and the moment he opened his eyes, he couldn't help but sigh, and there was a hint of unwillingness and disappointment in his eyes.

"Hey, it really doesn't seem as simple as I imagined, just sitting in the air with a suspended coil, with my current true qi, I can only hold on for two hours, let alone fly in the sky for a long time. ”

As long as you are a cultivator, you probably know very well that a monk in the Transformation Realm can fly above the sky with a sword, and when you reach the Void Realm, you don't even need a flying sword, just rely on your own strength and perception of space, you can achieve the volley void crossing, but it can't last too long, because the true qi can't withstand the consumption for such a long time.

And when you reach the Spirit Control Realm, you can be like the Ten Elders, you can hover in the air for a long time, and even stand on the clouds with your feet, but it is only a low altitude, not a real cloud peak.

If you want to really fly in the air as you like, you must at least have the strength to go to the Holy Realm, because the monks of that realm basically have their own small world, and the spiritual power stored in the small world for a long time can be used by the monks to cross the void for a long time.

"I can't stand in the sky, so I can't carefully perceive the laws of this world, but if I want to be in the sky for a long time, I have to have my own small world, what can I do?"

At this time, Zhang Ling had already returned to the ground, and after the first attempt, it really ended in failure, which couldn't help but make him feel a little helpless.

In fact, Zhang Ling's original plan was to stay in the sky for a long time, and then use his spiritual sense to feel the world, so that after a long time, he would be able to have a better understanding of the internal laws of the small world, and he would have an additional reference for himself to condense the small world.

But now he doesn't even have the ability to stay in the air for a long time, which means that he doesn't even have the most basic and easiest learning path, which makes him feel a little lost.

"If Yuan Lao is still here, he will definitely guide me, what should I do now?"

Zhang Ling stood by the river from day to night, although the first attempt was a failure, but he was not a person who gave up easily, he was still trying to think about whether there was another way to understand the laws of the small world?

And at this time, the night is deep, all the sounds are silent, the moonlight pours on the river, you can vaguely see a few small fish swimming on the river, there are night birds singing in the jungle, a few dragonflies fly over the aquatic plants by the river from time to time, and there are a few white rabbits not far from him who jump behind him curiously and in panic.

Zhang Ling looked at all this, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he thought of a sentence, that is, "Man is the law of the earth, the earth is the law of the sky, the heaven is the law, and the Tao is the nature." ”

"I understand that if you want to understand the world, you don't have to be in a high place, a high place can indeed make people see the world very clearly, but you can only see a big outline, but you can't see the details, you can't appreciate the mysteries.

Just like those gods and Buddhas, they all experienced all kinds of suffering in the world at the beginning before they were able to transcend the Tao and truly stand on the pinnacle of the clouds, if they have never had a true understanding of this world, even if they become gods and Buddhas, they do not have a Dao heart, they are not really Dao attained, and they are only a shell, not a Dao heart.

At this moment, I finally understood why my father-in-law emphasized this sentence to me at that time, because man is the root of everything, and instead of watching the world from the clouds, it is better to be in the world, even if it is just a speck of dust, you can clearly see the world as it is in the endless river of time. ”

Zhang Ling was overjoyed in his heart, and he finally found another breakthrough in his half-day meditation, that is, to wander in this small world and truly feel this world.

In fact, everything in this world is a spiritual power transformation, including the small animals he saw before, but as long as you are in this world and forget that this is a magic weapon, you will find that there are really all living creatures around you.

Zhang Ling has a hunch that as long as he understands these, he can truly understand the laws of this small world, so that he can condense his own small world.

"Between this landscape there are memories of me, my father-in-law and Yu'er, I don't know what I will see when I walk out of these mountains?"

Zhang Ling looked at the end of the river, there seemed to be a hint of exploration in his eyes, he planned to go out and take a look, although everything in this spirit bead was essentially nothing, but he still wanted to go out and have a look, and really feel the world as a bystander.

Perhaps, in this way, you can really integrate into this small world, so as to find a way to condense the small world.
