Chapter 21: The Seven Great Realms and the Three Small Realms
"Exercises? I don't know what exercises Mr. has here? Shen Yushan asked.
"I have a lot of exercises here, if I tell you one by one, I'm afraid you'll be picky."
Yang Zui shook his head and smiled.
It is true that Yang Zui claims to be a descendant of the Dongsang royal family, and his vision collection must be extraordinary, and the exercises he has are not as vast as a sea of smoke, at least they are beyond the reach of ordinary immortals.
What's more, Yang Zui has repeatedly called the Xiyu Kingdom a small country on the border of Middle Earth, so it is natural to know that he must not look down on the Immortal Cultivation Mountain Gate of the Gu Immortal Sword Sect who lives in a small border country, in other words, the exercises that Yang Zui can give will definitely not be bad.
Shen Yushan thought about it silently, he knew the importance of practicing exercises, especially the exercises that were practiced at the beginning, even if it could not be said that it completely determined the future potential, but at least it would have a great impact on the future.
Suddenly, Shen Yushan had an idea, played a little clever, and said with bright eyes: "I don't know what kind of exercises the master is practicing, and whether it is suitable for apprentices?" ”
Yang Zui smiled dumbly and said, "You, you are really cunning. There are many exercises in the world, and it doesn't mean that the exercises I practice will necessarily suit you. I see that you are a little ignorant about the cultivation of the exercises, so I will introduce one or two first, so that you can make your own choice. ”
Shen Yushan was overjoyed, and bowed his hand and said, "Please teach Master." ”
Yang Zui did not shirk this time, and received a great gift from Shen Yushan, but he did not start to explain immediately, but first asked a question and said: "Let me ask you, can you know which levels of the path of cultivating immortals are roughly divided into. ”
Shen Yushan said: "The apprentice only knows the Open Light Realm, the Secluded Realm, and the Demon Slaying Realm, and the rest don't know." ”
Yang Zui already knew some of the situation in his family from Shen Yushan's pass, and his scattered grandfather didn't want his descendants to take this path of cultivation again, so there was no systematic teaching of anything, Shen Yushan could know this, and it was already very rare for him to remember his grandfather's gossip very carefully.
"The road to immortal immortality, the end point is always immortality, but immortality is a move against the sky, so far, no one in the world can do it, even the Confucian saint Taoist ancestor who has stood at the top of the immortals, but only to the sky for six hundred years."
"No matter what exercises you choose, you will end up in the same direction, and you will eventually reach the end of immortality. It's just that, after all, the exercises are created by people, and no one cultivates to immortality, so naturally there is no practice that can be cultivated to immortality. You need to keep this in mind. ”
"For now, the pinnacle that people can climb on the road to immortal immortality stops at the level of Confucian saints and Taoist ancestors, and for thousands of years, countless amazing and brilliant characters have been born one after another, and they have been unable to escape the erosion of time and die of aging. Therefore, the immortals agreed to be customary, from the beginning of entering the immortal gate, to the level of Confucian saints and Taoist ancestors, a total of seven realms. ”
"Enlightenment: Divine light empowerment, creation of immortal fetus."
"Tongyou: See things clearly, ask ghosts and gods."
"Slay demons: Kill ghosts and demons, and accumulate merit and virtue."
"Divine powers: self-generated spells, divine thoughts are released."
"Night Tour: Golden Cicadas Shed Their Shells, Stargazing at Night."
"Leisurely: Heaven and earth are so big, let me go back."
"Shangzun number: Heaven and man induction, flick your fingers to cover the sky."
"These seven realms, as the name suggests, can peek into their power, and every time they enter a great realm, there is a wonderful way to be reborn. You are already familiar with the Enlightenment Realm, the spirit element between heaven and earth is incorporated into the body, and the ethereal and full feeling is wonderful, isn't it? Next, you need to enter the realm of passage as soon as possible, so that you can contact monsters and ghosts, and with the help of magic weapons and foreign objects such as talismans, you can initially subdue some small demons. ”
"In that case, if I want to kill that mountain ghost, do I need to at least reach the Demon Slaying Realm?" Shen Yushan rubbed his jaw and guessed.
Yang Zui approvingly: "Yes." Because only in the Demon Slaying Realm, the spirit element is relatively abundant, and the spirit element in the body can be released to the enemy, which is very important. In addition, within these seven realms, there are three sub-realms each. ”
"Three small realms?" Shen Yushan muttered.
Yang Zui continued: "The three small realms are: Qishan, Dawang, and Shangjing. ”
"Rising from the mountain means the precipitation of Lingyuan, as if it is like a mountain; The king means that the spirit is abundant, as if he is sitting on power; Going to Beijing is the overflow of Lingyuan, knocking on the door of Lingqiao and entering the next big realm. ”
"For example, if you are a disciple, you are now in the great realm of enlightenment, and the small realm of the mountain, that is, the stage of the enlightenment realm, and you still belong to the stage of consolidating the foundation and cultivating the yuan, and you still need to work hard."
"I know."
Shen Yushan was a little depressed, it turned out that he belonged to the ants at the bottom of the pyramid of cultivating immortals, but this depression came and went quickly, he firmly believed that with the help of Yang Zui, and with such a sharp weapon as the Netherworld Patio in his hand, he would one day be able to reach the top of the immortals and achieve the same height as the Confucian Saint Dao Ancestor.
Yang Zui said again: "Since the seven realms and the three small realms have been explained clearly, I will talk to you about how to choose the exercises, there are countless chapters in the world, it can be said that there are as many people who cultivate immortals, there are as many exercises, everyone's immortal path cannot be exactly the same, the exercises are just lanterns walking on the long road of cultivating immortals, illuminating a small piece of brightness in front of you." ”
"Of course, if you really want to divide the exercises into superior and inferior ones, the most brutal way is to practice this exercise to what extent can the predecessors who have practiced this exercise reach, and your master's practice now and now can eventually be cultivated to the night travel realm, although the exercises are also written in the free realm, but no one has been able to enter this level smoothly, either transfer to other exercises, or create a new exercise, or simply stop here, and will not be able to advance an inch in his life."
"Master's exercises, the highest among the seniors of the cultivation is only to the night travel realm?" Shen Yushan hesitated, "Then may I ask Master, does Master have any exercises in his hands that can be cultivated to the level of Confucian Saint Dao Ancestor?" ”
"You're greedy." Yang Zui glanced at the young man with his remaining eyes, and said with a smile: "Seven realms, the first six realms have their own names, but the last realm is called the Supreme Title, guess why?" ”
Shen Yushan is very smart, as soon as Yang Zui mentioned it, he thought about it, raised his eyes and said in surprise: "Because the last realm is defined by every big man who has cultivated to this level, Confucian saints are like this, Dao ancestors are like this, if there are demons and monsters in the future, they can also cultivate to this level, you can claim to be the demon emperor, demon ancestor, and ghost monarch, can you guess correctly?" ”
"That's right, it's not in vain that you are angry at reading this book, it's a bit of a pound." Yang Zui said with satisfaction.
As soon as the words changed, Yang Zui said again: "Therefore, in the end, this great realm is defined by people who have cultivated to this level, Confucian sage said that it should be called the Great Sage Realm, then it is called the Great Sage Realm, and Dao Ancestor said that it should be called the Spirit Ancestor Realm, then it is called the Spirit Ancestor Realm." As for the Great Sage Realm and the Spirit Ancestor Realm, which one is stronger or weaker, then the Confucian Saint Dao Ancestor has to fight a game, and whoever wins is in charge. ”
"So who wins?" Shen Yushan asked with a blinking of curious eyes.
Yang Zui said angrily: "What a great power the Confucian Saint Dao Ancestor is, if he really fights, if he doesn't do it, he will be ruined." What's more, the two schools of Confucianism and Taoism have always been friends, how old are the ancestors of Confucianism and Taoism, how can they fight, there may be private discussions, but we outsiders don't know. ”
"Therefore, there is no exercise in this world that can teach people to practice to the last realm, and the last step has to be explored by everyone themselves, which is their own way."
Shen Yushan asked again, "What realm is Master?" ”
"Guess again." Yang Zui continued to play dumb riddles.
Shen Yushan pondered for a moment, and guessed unconfidently: "Night Journey Realm, you can get out of the shell of the soul golden cicada, but the master went out of the body to accompany me to kill the lake bandits that day, and I had to hide with the help of the grass man, and I couldn't stay outside for a long time. ”
"That's right, if you can find a magic weapon to store your soul in the future and place my soul in it, maybe I will be able to accompany you and guide you anytime and anywhere." Yang Zui suddenly smiled bitterly again: "However, this is almost impossible, how can you get such a valuable thing as a magic weapon." ”
"Ritual artifacts are valuable? My pair of candle dragon eyes are spiritual weapons. Shen Yushan was surprised.
"Magic weapons, spiritual weapons, immortal weapons, you don't have to underestimate them, even if they are the lowest magic weapons, if you want to forge them, you don't know how much heaven and earth treasures need to be spent, and I don't know how much hard work and time it takes, even if it is an ordinary magic weapon, maybe just collecting materials, it may take decades. This is not only a matter of insufficient spiritual stones that cannot be purchased, but also a question of whether this kind of spiritual material can be found. ”
Shen Yushan nodded, keeping the matter of finding a magic weapon that could store souls in his heart for the time being.
"Since there is no practice in the world that can teach people to practice to the last realm, there are exercises that can be practiced to the realm of leisure...... Oh, I'm really stupid, if I really have the practice of cultivating to the realm of leisure, wouldn't the master himself practice? ”
"Wrong!"
Yang Zui suddenly interrupted: "I have the exercises to cultivate to the realm of leisure!" ”
