Volume 12 Chapter 13 Humanity
Invisible sword qi galloped through the small space, drawing a dazzling trajectory at a speed that was too fast to see, and then imprinted this trajectory on the jade plaque below.
This is using the sword qi as the pen and the jade plate as the paper to outline the formation.
The efficiency of the sword qi delineation was extremely high, and the entire formation was quickly outlined. With the completion of the last stroke, the jade plaque that was originally floating quietly in the air suddenly burst into a dazzling light, and the colorful flow in the glory light flowed, and the most brilliant turned into a bright red, burning like a flame.
But the light only lasted for the equivalent of two or three breaths, and then it was sucked back by the jade plate. As a result, the cyan jade plaque became bright red like fire, revealing a blurry and flowing brilliance, which made people feel shaken just by looking at it.
The bright red jade plaque was wrapped in Zhenyuan and thrown out, like a meteor thrown into the white aura suspended in the air. The aura is a special magic weapon that can refine spiritual objects and make their physical properties introverted, and pieces of jade plaques fly through the halo, and most of the luster fades in an instant, becoming no longer dazzling, just like ordinary jade.
These quenched jade plaques are the finished products, they flew out of the Huandan Patriarch one by one, and were finally completed through the jade ring, and then they were caught by Wu Xie and the others who had been waiting here for a long time, and they were neatly stacked next to them.
These are the formations of the Heavenly Fire Great Array, and only with the help of it can you hook yourself up with the Great Array and get the blessing of the entire formation. Otherwise, even if his own cultivation is high enough to depict the formation out of thin air, or even to maintain the effect of the formation all the time, it will consume a lot of additional mental energy.
Of course, all the monks who need to fight with the help of the Heavenly Fire Array, each of them will get a formation disk. The array will be finely adjusted according to their own situation so that it fits perfectly with each of them.
With the help of this array, even monks who are not good at fire-based spells can get full support from the Heavenly Fire Array. They will get extra vision from different angles, extra true elements that can turn the tide at critical moments or take advantage of victory, and get the latest and most timely news from other comrades...... At the most critical juncture, Wu Jie, as the hub of the large formation, could even directly mobilize the strength of the entire formation to provide them with support firepower.
With the help of such a formation, the monks at the peak of Ning Yuan could barely resist the opponents of the second and third turns of the Huandan, while the monks of the Huandan would be generally increased to at least one turn of combat power. As for those top masters who have returned to the sixth turn of the Dan and are already approaching the limit of heaven and man, they can even temporarily strengthen their strength to the point where they are enough to ring the threshold of the tribulation!
"It's a pity that Eldest Sun Wu is still crossing the Heart Demon Tribulation, otherwise if he presides over the hub, he should be able to support more formations." When discussing how to distribute these arrays, Shaoguang Zhenren couldn't help but sigh, "Wu Jie's cultivation is still a little low!" What a shame!"
"You're just thinking too much." Pillow Stone Zhenren smiled, "Wu Xie was able to design this formation, which is already an unexpected joy. With the help of this Heavenly Fire Array, we are at least equal to five or six more Huandan masters. What could not be satisfied?"
Shaoguang Zhenren was about to say something, but Patriarch Lin, who had always been silent, also spoke: "Pillow Stone is right, originally even if there was no Heavenly Fire Array, we would have to go all out to fight this battle. Now that the Heavenly Fire Array is helping to help, the odds of winning have increased by at least thirty percent, so what's not to be satisfied with?"
"Shaoguang, you have such a strong personality, you want to do your best in everything. This is not a bad thing, but remember that there is always a limit to manpower. Even if we have reached the end of the world and seen the dawn of the ascension to the heavens, the situation will not change. ”
"Your expectations for the Heavenly Fire Array have already exceeded the limit, and this attitude is not advisable!"
Shaoguang Zhenren was startled, his face was cloudy, and after a moment, he sighed deeply and bowed his head silently.
As Patriarch Lin said, because he has been presiding over the affairs of his own sect, he has been entangled in mundane affairs and has lost his normal heart.
Needless to say, the benefits of the Heavenly Fire Array are not to be mentioned, but it is reasonable that it has some shortcomings. Being able to get the help of this great array is an unexpected joy in itself, and forcing more is not the mentality that a cultivator should have.
At this moment, he suddenly woke up, and he realized something in his heart. If it were in normal times, we should seize the time to go into retreat now, and try to transform this feeling into spiritual practice, maybe we can take our cultivation to the next level, and even make a big step closer to the supreme realm.
But not now, because he has other things to do.
Shaoguang Zhenren sighed secretly, put down the inexplicable feeling in his heart, and concentrated on thinking about how to distribute these arrays.
Although the Tianhuo Great Array was strong, Wu Jie, who was presiding over the Great Array, could only fully support it at the same time, no more than ten points. Even considering that not everyone will need the full support of the large array at the same time, the total number of arrays should not exceed fifteen.
"Fifteen in total...... Even one of the Dan monks is not enough!" A person next to him sighed, "This door will use up ten ......."
"The eight Senior Brothers Xu and Senior Brother Chen will stay in the center of the Great Array at that time, on the one hand, to protect the Formation Eye, and on the other hand, to serve as a force for mobility." Pillow Stone Zhenren said in a deep voice, "Moreover, the eldest grandson and junior brother may be out of the customs at any time." Once he is out of the pass, the large array will be able to support at least forty or more people...... So we might as well distribute some more arrays out of the army. As long as you make an appointment with your colleagues in advance, there will be no problems. ”
As soon as he said this, everyone suddenly came to their senses, and the discussion became intense.
This time, what they discussed was not how to distribute the array disks, but how to arrange batches during the battle, so that the power of the Heavenly Fire Array could be fully displayed.
The discussion lasted for more than an hour, and the opinions of the last Patriarch finally reached a consensus.
One by one, messages were sent out, summoning the various factions that had arrived and were arriving one after another, inviting them to come to survey the heavens and Shenzhou.
At that time, there will be a more heated discussion.
However, these discussions actually had little to do with Wu Jie, and now he was hurrying to cultivate, hoping to improve his mental power as much as possible before the critical moment came.
Very few monks specialize in cultivating the mind, and although multitasking is a very powerful skill, it is enough for monks to use two or three or four purposes. Wu Jie's mind was slightly stronger than that of a monk of the same level, and he could divide his mind into ten parts at most, which meant that when he broke out with all his strength, he would be able to command the Heavenly Fire Great Array, and at the same time provide the highest strength of support to the ten Huandan Patriarchs who were fighting fiercely ahead.
That's a pretty good level, but it's not enough for the current situation!
Therefore, Shaoguang Zhenren specially found a method to enhance the strength of the mind, and asked him to seize the last time and practice hard.
Although it seems that it may be too late, the so-called "grinding the gun in battle is not fast, it is ......light", even if it can only strengthen Wu Jie's mind a little, it may be able to help at a critical moment.
Wu Xie naturally had no opinion on this, for him, cultivation was a very interesting and happy thing. Although the cultivation of mental power is extremely hard, being able to feel that your mind is constantly increasing, this hard work is worth it!
This method originated from the ascetic sect of Buddhism, and the practitioner had to use his true qi to simulate various types of mana, stimulate many particularly painful acupoints on his body, and subdivide various pains. Whenever you can distinguish the pain from each acupoint, add another one.
In this process, whether it is dividing the true qi into strands and simulating various different mana; Or distinguishing the difference between various pains in the severe pain can effectively hone the will, and can also stimulate people's potential unconsciously, so that the mental power can be quickly enhanced.
"I know it works, but ...... It hurts so much!"
After another cultivation, Wu Jie, who was covered in cold sweat, gasped and lay motionless on the bed, like a dried fish.
This method called "Hell Refining" is really mysterious and abnormal, and in just three days of cultivation, Wu Jie's mind has strengthened significantly. This made him couldn't help but be amazed, and deeply sighed that people's potential is really endless!
According to his past cultivation speed, it would take at least three or five years for this level of growth. By cultivating the Hell Refining Secret Method, the daily progress is comparable to a normal year!
"Master, you just have accumulated a lot of money, and this method is actually average." Jasmine said disdainfully in the Heavenly Book World Realm, "For so many years, Master, you have never specifically cultivated the Mental Power Force, and you have already accumulated a very deep potential in this regard. The progress of this period has only transformed the potential accumulated over the past few decades. Believe it or not, in a maximum of ten days, your progress will be significantly reduced. ”
"This hell cultivation can only be cultivated for a maximum of eighteen days at a time, and after eighteen days, no matter what the results are, it must be stopped, and you can't cultivate again for sixty years—isn't it, as you said, that it is actually transforming sixty years of accumulation into eighteen days of growth?" Wu Xie asked thoughtfully.
"What else could be the reason? Those bald people in the Buddhist Sect only know what to mumble all day long, how can they design a kung fu that can improve their cultivation into a big step out of thin air!" Jasmine's words were filled with a kind of pride unique to a strong man, "If you want to quickly improve your cultivation, our Demon Dao is an expert!"
"Then is there any way you can quickly improve my mind cultivation?" Wu Xie asked curiously.
"Absolutely!" Jasmine raised her eyebrows and smiled, "In the battle on the sea outside Changning City, I gained a lot of souls. Although most of them have been directly decomposed into source power, some of the higher quality ones are still left—as long as you devour and absorb these souls, the amount of mental power can increase a lot in a short period of time!"
"And this method has the added benefit that the power of these souls will not be completely absorbed all at once, and most of them will be converted into your potential, so that your cultivation speed will increase a lot for a long time in the future!" The more Jasmine spoke, the more excited she became, and her eyes flashed with an unsettling light, "The reason why there are so many masters in this sect is that this method is one of the most critical reasons!"
Wu Xie was silent for a while, and sighed weakly.
"Jasmine, you see I'm tired like this now...... Can't you be considerate of me, and don't mention those demon gates' tricks for the time being!"
"Is there any difference between being absorbed by the Heavenly Book World Realm or being devoured by you, Master?" Jasmine frowned and persuaded, "It's no difference!"
"When a person dies, he returns to the earth and becomes a nutrient in the soil. These nutrients will be added to the cycle of the biological chain, and it is likely that they will eventually become food again...... So, when we eat food, can we think that we are eating people?"
Wu Xie had experienced such a debate on the earth before, and he refuted it without even thinking about it.
"All living beings are part of the cycle, and we are no exception. Even if those souls are devoured and absorbed by you, Master, it is still a cyclical process. Jasmine was obviously not a vegetarian either, and immediately said, "If you can achieve the Supreme Dao, Master, you can naturally divide them from your soul, and even resurrect them again." And if you can't achieve the supreme avenue, you will be reincarnated in the future, and these soul powers will naturally enter the cycle again. ”
Wu Xie smiled and asked rhetorically: "If I eat grain, is it equivalent to eating people?"
"In terms of circulation, it makes no difference."
"For me, there's a difference." Although he was so tired that he couldn't even move a finger, Wu Xie smiled very easily, "In my previous life, I read a novel written by a person, and there is such a paragraph in the novel about the survival of the fittest, which is the way of nature; ”
"That's arrogant!" Jasmine frowned, "Man is just one of all things in heaven and earth, and there is nothing noble compared to all other things. ”
"Maybe you think so, but it seems to me that man is human precisely because he has a heart that is unwilling to submit to nature." Wu Xie smiled and said, "There are similarities and coincidences between the way of man and the way of heaven, but there are also differences. So we are not animals or plants, we are not demons or spirit animals, we are human beings. ”
He was originally lying on the bed and talking to Jasmine with his heart, but when he finished saying this, the qi luck in his body suddenly vibrated uncontrollably, flowing like a great river of the Yangtze River, enveloping his whole person in the white light of merit.
Wu Xie was stunned for a moment, he just wanted to retreat into the Heavenly Book World Realm, but he gave up this idea.
Because at that moment, he felt something in the dark.
That thing can't be put into words, it can't be described, it exists, but apart from "existence", Wu Xie can't think of any other words to describe it.
It is humane, and it is the maintenance of the living beings of the earth and the laws and will of all living beings in the darkness.
Wu Xie just said that he inadvertently touched his own luck, and then opened the door to humanity!
Although it was only for a short moment, when Wu Xie came to his senses, he found that he had burst into tears.
What he felt at that moment filled his mind, making him unable to weave his own thoughts, and could only face them with the purest heart.
Humanity is a form of compassion for all beings. It does not follow the path chosen by sentient beings, and at the same time maintains the path of sentient beings as much as possible.
But humanity itself also has a will, and it wants all beings to prosper and to go as far as possible on their path.
So sometimes, it will show its will to those who are destined to do it, and lend its strength to those who are willing to devote all their lives to the preservation of sentient beings, or to the preservation of this prosperity.
For example, the original jealous predecessors were praised by humanity and received the amount of power granted by humanity.
At that moment just now, Wu Xie was also humanely praised. If he wanted to, he could also make a wish like his predecessors in exchange for the amount of power granted by humanity.
But he refused, he was only moved, he was just rejoicing, but he didn't need the power of humanity.
"People have to move forward on their own, and I am willing to move forward on the path that is beneficial to you, this is not a deal, it is my own choice."
Wu Xie couldn't lie in his state at that time, so humanity's praise for him was even stronger. But after all, he rejected the power of humanity, so humanity was only praise.
Although, in the first moments after he came to his senses, he began to regret it.
"I'm so stupid! What an idiot!" Wu Jie, who had regained his strength, couldn't help but scold himself angrily, "As long as you nod your head a little just now, you can immediately get the great power of humanitarian blessings!"
"But humanitarian blessings are not necessarily a good thing." Jasmine persuaded, "That thing is too weird, it doesn't necessarily have a good way to go!" She was afraid that Wu Xie would not believe it, and added, "Back then, a senior brother liked to transform the Buddha and trick others into making grand wishes in order to get his blessings. As a result, the moment when the ambition is fulfilled is when that person is absorbed by him......"
"You don't understand......," Wu Xie sighed, "You haven't been able to feel it, so you don't understand...... It won't lie to me, and it's already nodding its head just now! I don't need to do anything for it anymore...... As long as I want, I can take the benefits for nothing!"
"How can there be any benefits in the world for nothing!"
"Jasmine, you don't understand......" Wu Xie sighed deeply, his heart was full of regret, but in addition to regret, there was also an indescribable pleasure.
In the face of humane expectations, the answer he made was the purest truth in his heart.
Although he is very stupid and arrogant, this idea of "moving forward by himself" is his truest heart, without any falsehood or whitewashing.
Even though the feeling of that moment has gradually faded, deep in his heart, it still echoes the response made in the face of humanity.
Wu Xie believes that no matter how long it has passed, no matter how many things have been experienced, he will never forget the mood at that moment, and he will not forget the answer at that moment.
"I'm on the same path as you, but I'm going to move forward on my own!"
