Chapter 35 of the Seven Floating Islands Chapter 35 Re-enter the Empty Mirror Realm
When I opened my eyes, I found myself in an extremely mysterious place, surrounded by a vast white space that I could not see, and there were condensed elements flowing around me, and I reached out to grab them but found that I could not hold them......
"Young man, are you here again?" said an old man, who walked out of the white light.
"Grandpa, is that you? If I say that, I'm in the Empty Mirror Realm again, no wonder I look so familiar. I said with a smile.
"Young man, you have entered twice in a row in such a short period of time, it looks like you and I are destined. The old man said with a smile.
"It's an honor for the younger generations. I said with a smile.
"Young man, you're a lot lighter than the last time you came in. The old man said with a smile.
"I've been improved by a magic spirit. I said with a smile.
"You are an accident to the world. The old man said with a smile.
"Grandpa, forgive the younger generation for being unreasonable. The last time you said you were a sinner, I want to ask what is going on?" I asked, confused.
"It's a thing of the past...... But I don't know how long I've been here, and the two times you came in can be regarded as having a relationship with me, so I'll make an exception and tell you that you should be listening to a story......" the old man said with a smile.
"The younger generation listened. I said respectfully.
"Back then, the people of our clan were all pursuing the ultimate in cultivation, although it was just a hopeless idea, but I was young and vigorous, but I tried my best to climb to the top. According to my own ideas, I worked hard step by step, and finally surpassed everyone else and stood at the top. This made me more and more obsessed with endless pursuits, and I killed many lives in desperation. In the end, I climbed to the top by stepping on the corpses of all my clansmen. I realized that I was left alone...... "There was a hint of remorse in the old man's words.
"How did you get to this Empty Mirror Realm, old man?" I asked, confused.
"This is the place I've been looking for all my life. The old man said with a smile.
"This is the ultimate in cultivation?" I asked, confused.
"Sort of. The old man said.
"Ying Tian does not know the heart, self-cultivation does not know the reason......" Suddenly Na Lanlin said in my voice.
"Nalanlin. What are you doing?" I asked, confused.
"Young man, where did you hear these words?" the old man asked, frowning.
"This ...... Originally, I promised her not to tell the third person. But now there's no way around it. Here's the thing...... At that time, when I was practicing at the Fire Spirit Gate...... "I told me the ins and outs of the matter.
"It seems that you do have a relationship with me. The old man said with a smile.
"Really?" I said with a smirk.
"Boy, now that you're in my hands, I can't let you go easily. The old man laughed, grabbed my arm and threw me up, but I didn't react, and then I fell down and fell heavily to the ground. The old man stomped his feet, my whole body was shaken, the old man waved his hand, and my whole body turned around, and finally the stable feet fell to the ground.
"Grandpa, you...... What are you doing here?" I felt dizzy.
"Sit down cross-legged!" I shook my head to see that the old man was gone, but his deep voice came from nowhere.
"Oh. I sat down cross-legged obediently.
"I don't know what to do...... Cultivators are often sensing heaven and earth. However, they often ignore their own hearts, and the city of cultivating the mind can regret that the art of ten thousand transformations is integrated, and this is the most important thing. The old man said.
"Grandpa, you mean that cultivating the mind is more important. I said confusedly.
"That's right. The old man said.
"But how do you cultivate your mind?" I asked, confused.
"You sit cross-legged and go into a meditative state, and slowly you have to learn to empty everything, not to sense the elements around you, to sense your mind from the outside in, and to ask it what it wants to do. The old man said.
"Grandpa, I see. I said with a smile.
"Self-cultivation without knowing the reason...... Do you know how cultivators convert the elements in the air into their own primordial energy?" the old man asked.
"This ...... It's ...... "I really can't say it."
"Cultivators use their own qi to sense the elements in the air around them, and then attract them to them. After being transmitted to the body along the meridians, it will be absorbed by the powerful sense of the original god. After absorbing the primordial spirit, it will be a refining, refining the elemental energy into the assimilated primordial spirit energy used by oneself and storing it again......," the old man said.
"But what's the use of knowing that?" I asked, confused.
"To put it simply, if you absorb a pure elemental energy from the air, it will be ten after passing through the meridian depletion. After being absorbed by the body, it is eight, and finally it is refined and lost by the Yuan Shen, and it may not even be five when it is converted into Yuan Shen energy. The old man said.
"Halfway through?" I asked, surprised.
"There's not much pure energy in the air. Generally, it is only six or seven, so the Yuan Shen energy refined by cultivators is only one or two, so the speed and intensity of cultivation will be very like this. The old man said.
"What should I do then?" I asked, confused.
"It's simple. Try to avoid these three steps. The old man said.
"This ...... It should be hard to avoid. I said puzzled.
"I thought so at first, but as I practiced, I continued to practice. only to find out that this can also be avoided. First of all, the meridians and the physical body absorb elemental energy in order to maintain themselves, but this also changes with the change of their own physique. All living beings are in the process of transformation between the physical body and the spirit body, but the degree of the spirit body is slightly different. The old man said.
"What's the difference?" I asked, confused.
That is, the higher the purity of the spirit, the less elemental energy it absorbs and loses. The old man said.
"I'm a half-spirit now, and I can reduce a lot. I said with a smile.
"I can turn you into a pure spirit. The old man said with a smile.
"Grandpa, are you telling the truth?" I asked, surprised.
"Absolutely. The old man said with a smile.
"Please teach me!" I said respectfully.
"This is what you said...... "As soon as the old man stomped his feet, my whole body flipped up, and the old man waved his hand, a red chain flew out, tied my feet and hung them in the air, and with another wave of his hand, a pool of blood appeared on the ground. The blood bubbled and bubbled, and it felt like it might be corroded if it went in.
"What are you doing here, old man?" I cried out in fear.
"Help you refine your spirits. The old man said with a smile.
"That...... I...... Can I stop practicing......" I said with a wry smile.
"It's late......" The old man waved his hand, and as soon as the chains moved, I fell, and the whole person was soaked in blood.
"Ah......h
It's indescribable what it's like to be immersed in that blood, there's a box of finger-sized flesh worms, and then you force your head into that box and you should feel about the same.
I don't know how much time passed, just when I felt that I was about to ascend to heaven, the old man waved his hand and hung me up again, but when I didn't breathe a few breaths of fresh air, the old man waved his hand and soaked me again......
"How do you feel now?" I had been immersed in it and hung up a dozen times, the old man finally let me go, I returned to the arms of my dear Mother Earth, I lay on the ground and breathed hard, the old man walked up to me and asked with a smile.
"It feels so good to be alive......" I didn't even want to move.
"Your physique is really good, ten more times like this will be about the same. The old man looked at me and said.
"Come back ten times, kill me......" I said depressedly.
......
"The spirit does not turn until nine, and does not enter or enter if it does not come out......," said the old man, sitting cross-legged in front of me.
"Nine, according to what you said before, even if pure spiritual energy is absorbed into the body, it can't reach the level of nine. I said confusedly.
"You're right. The old man said.
"Even a blood spirit body like me that can be compared to a pure spirit body can only reach about seven, and the final primordial spirit refining is the big head, once it is refined, it is impossible to preserve the purity of nine. I said helplessly.
"So we have to find a way to keep the primordial spirit from refining. The old man said.
"Is this possible?" I asked, confused.
"Of course, you do as I say......" The old man leaped up and lay in the air.
"What do I need to do?" I asked, confused.
"First release all the fire elemental energy in your body, so that the Yuan Shen is in a completely hollow state, and then I will tell you what to do next...... "The old man said lazily while lying in the air.
"Xuan-Fire-Palm" I stretched out my palm, and four flames of different colors swirled and blended in the center of my palm, and with a palm strike, a huge flame palm print flew out, and the difference quickly disappeared in a white light.
"Oh, you can actually control three kinds of fire?" the old man asked in surprise as he fell from the sky.
"That's right. I said with a smile. (To be continued.) )
