Chapter Eighty-Seven: Cultivating Immortals in Middle Earth
"Cultivating immortals?!"
After the disciples reacted, the uproar was endless. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Xing Killing Chen was also taken aback, this kind of thing can also be cultivated?
But when he looked at Emperor Caitong, he felt that something was wrong, how could this little girl look like she had become an immortal?
The second elder also knew that the disciples had misunderstood what he meant, so he opened his mouth to explain:
"The immortal cultivator I'm talking about is not the immortal cultivator you imagined. This cultivation of immortals is a kind of concept, or a kind of sustenance.
Zhongxian Continent is the most lively continent in the entire cultivation realm, and there are countless sects and Taoist systems on it. The things that are cultivated are also varied, including Taoism, law, barbarism, and witchcraft.
But whether it is a Dao or a barbarian witch, in their opinion, it is all cultivation. The root of their practice is immortals. And what they are looking for is eternal life.
In other words, whether it is a Dao law or a barbarian witch, it is only regarded by the people of Zhongxian Continent as a way to pursue immortality. Instead of pursuing the ultimate of the Dao, the ultimate of the Fa, the ultimate of the body, and the ultimate of witchcraft like other people of the four continents.
At the beginning of their cultivation, the people of Zhongxian Continent took the unattainable 'immortal' as their goal, which is an ideal and an ambition.
With this ideal erected in front of us, no matter what time it is, it is equivalent to having the motivation to practice, and not being overwhelmed on the path of cultivation.
Of course, this goal is a little too far away, some people are full of motivation because of this, and naturally some people are lost because they can't see hope, after all, since ancient times, who dares to say that they have truly become immortals?"
Indeed, as the Second Elder said, it is good to aim high, but if you set a goal too high, you will also lose your way.
Xing Shuchen suddenly felt that cultivating immortals was not suitable for him. He is still more suitable for the kind of cultivation method that is down-to-earth, does the things in front of him step by step, and cultivates each realm to the extreme.
Cultivation is not bad, at least one step at a time, he can clearly see every bit of his footprints.
As for becoming an immortal or something, in his opinion, it belongs to ambition, and it's better not to take out such a thing as ambition as a goal, just let him obediently stay in his heart.
When it has hope to be realized and is no longer an ambition, he still thinks it is better to take it out as a goal.
He was thinking here, and on the other side, Emperor Caitong also nodded and said:
"The Second Elder is right. It is indeed a bit too far to require every cultivator to aim to become an immortal as soon as they come up.
The original ancestral precepts tell us to follow the path of the ancestors, step by step to trace the footsteps of the ancestors to become immortals, which is the goal that each of us in the inheritance family should have.
My father also raised this question, and he said that with the passage of time, the vicissitudes of life, how many people have really become immortals? How many people are known? The things that we have practiced in the Immortal Continent are a bit too wide, and it is very easy for people to fall into confusion.
And he also said that now the world has changed, the world has gone, the compensation has not arrived, the aura between heaven and earth is insufficient, and now the goal is to become an immortal, which is really too stupid.
Therefore, after he became the master of the family, he forcibly changed the ancestral teachings, and no longer required the descendants of our inheritance family to follow the footsteps of the ancestors to become immortals.
Instead, take the path of the ancestors as a reference, and if possible, jump out and find your own path to becoming an immortal.
Because my father always felt that things like becoming immortals could only be referenced, not imitated. If you want to become an immortal, you must step out of your own path. ”
After listening to him, Xiao Lin on the side also had a look of surprise:
"You inherit the family and know that your ancestor has become an immortal?!"
When he said this, he had a strange tone, as if full of incredulity.
Emperor Caitong was also startled by his voice, and was stunned for a long time before nodding and saying:
"Know, know, when the ancestor left the earth, he had already become an immortal, this is my inheritance family, everyone knows things. ”
"He became an immortal when he left the earth, how could I not know?"
Xiao Lin muttered this sentence in a low voice, but Emperor Caitong didn't hear it clearly, because there was a Xing Killing Dust between them.
But even Xing Shuchen's ears only heard the three words Chengxian clearly, but he heard Xiao Lin's very confused tone.
"What the hell are you wondering?" he asked.
Hearing his question, Xiao Lin also shook his head:
"It's nothing, I'm just thinking that this inheritance family can't even figure out the name of the ancestor, and can actually know that he has become an immortal. It's amazing. ”
Hearing him say this, Emperor Caitong was also unhappy:
"Who said that if you can't understand the name of the ancestor, you can't know his cultivation when he left the earth? What is the name of the ancestor of the Taoist sect? When he left the earth, didn't he also become an immortal?
Also, what does it mean that we can't even understand the name of our ancestor? Our ancestor is called Emperor Sheng, and we must be called Emperor Sheng. ”
Seeing that she was about to blow up her hair, Xiao Lin also hurriedly raised his hands to signal surrender:
"Yes, yes, Emperor Sage, Emperor Sage, he is called Emperor Sage, and he is an immortal and left. ”
Seeing him surrender, Emperor Caitong also snorted:
"Well, don't you know everything, why don't you even know this kind of thing that almost everyone knows. ”
"What I know is true. Xiao Lin muttered quietly again.
"What do you say?" Di Caitong's ears were sharp, and although he didn't hear his words clearly, he heard his voice.
"It's nothing, you're right, very right!" Xiao Lin was also afraid of her, and hurriedly opened his mouth to admit it.
Emperor Caitong snorted, and then ignored him.
Xiao Lin was turning his head, and his ten fingers were quickly pointing at each other. Xing Shuchen heard what he said just now, it was the sentence "What I know is true".
What he meant by saying this didn't mean that the legend was incorrect? Although Xing Shuchen felt that it was a little too unbelievable, he still inexplicably chose to believe Xiao Lin. I believe the rumors are wrong.
However, he really wanted to know what the "real situation" Xiao Lin knew was like. So he couldn't help but look at Xiao Lin.
However, seeing his thoughtful appearance, Xing Shuchen was embarrassed to disturb, so he looked at him and thought. And Xiao Lin seemed to be really stuck in thinking this time, and even Xing Shuchen didn't notice it when he looked at him.
"Emperor Sheng, a generation of ancestors...... It turns out that they call this an immortal, it's really interesting. ”
Thinking of this, Xiao Lin couldn't help laughing, Xing Shuchen became even more confused, and felt more and more that this big brother was unfathomable.
On the other side, their voices once again caught the attention of the Second Elder, but he was not angry when he heard that what they said was related to what he said. Instead, he waited until they had finished speaking, and then he continued:
"Okay, they've finished discussing the name of the ancestor and whether or not they became immortals, so I'm going to move on.
The East and the West, the South Barbarian and the North Witch, and the Middle Earth Cultivating Immortals. This is the general system of cultivation within the cultivation realm. But there are other things that are being practiced.
In addition to these main four, there are two that are absolutely not overlooked. These two kinds of things were originally invented by the people of Zhongxian Zhou to pursue immortality.
But then he became independent and was practiced as a fundamental: one is luck, but faith.
There are very few people who practice these two things.
Qi luck is generally practiced by the royal family of the dynasty, and the cultivation realm is vast and boundless, although there are countless dynasties. But compared to the vast number of living beings, it is still pitiful.
It's the same with faith, which is clearly a method of using the faith of countless people to support one person, and it is simply impossible for many people to practice it.
Belief in this kind of thing is basically practiced by the Buddhism of Xixuanzhou, the Lord of the Demon Dao, or the Pope of the Holy See.
However, those who practice these two things must not be underestimated, because those who can establish a dynasty are by no means idle. The luck inherited by this kind of person is naturally very generous.
And those who can be believed by countless people must be even more extraordinary. And these two things have two advantages over the others.
One is that they don't have to start practicing at a young age, they can be practiced halfway, or they can be passed on. One is that they don't go back against the foundation of your original practice.
For example, if you are a cultivator and want to practice the Dharma, you must destroy all your previous perceptions of the Tao and re-establish yourself to build a foundation to cultivate the Dharma. At most, there are some commonalities.
But luck and faith are different, they are not bound by these, and whatever they practice, they can be added to luck and faith.
So don't underestimate monks who practice these two things, because they often don't know the luck or beliefs of the practice. ”
For luck and faith, everyone is still no stranger. So as soon as the two elders explained, they understood.
Then the Second Elder continued:
"This is the general pattern of the cultivation realm and the foundation of their practice, but I will also talk about it here.
Everyone knows that there are a total of nine domains in the cultivation realm, so presumably everyone should also know that there were originally ten domains in my cultivation realm.
There is also a domain called the Absolute Law Domain, which used to be in my cultivation realm. But this Absolute Law Domain, I don't know what happened at the beginning, it actually caused the inexplicable loss of heaven and earth aura, and I couldn't even find out the reason.
By the end of the day, the aura of heaven and earth had almost been exhausted. Far ahead of the Nine Domains, it has completely entered the era of lawlessness.
Moreover, the power that inexplicably extracted spiritual energy from heaven and earth did not disappear, and there was a tendency to spread to the other nine domains. Therefore, the Nine Domains were forced to have no choice but to seal this domain in a space that was opened up by the union of all the powers.
The people who live in this realm now are the descendants of those who were reluctant to leave the land and were willing to be sealed away with it.
However, the depletion of spiritual energy does not mean that monks will not be born in this domain. Under such conditions, once someone can feel the aura of heaven and earth, they must be a peerless genius.
Therefore, cultivators who return to the cultivation realm from the Absolute Law Realm often have very high achievements. ”
Xing Shuchen liked to listen to this very much, and even took the lead in applauding.
Seeing his appearance, his eyebrows were about to roll to the back of his head. The second elder also smiled, and then continued:
"In addition to the Absolute Law Domain, there is actually another domain that lives independently in each space. And this domain is called the Demon Domain.
