Chapter 2: Hongmeng Tao Sutra

Ye Tongxuan said goodbye to Ye Yongkang and returned to his cave. He familiarly opened the ban and walked in.

After confirming that the prohibition was opened, he sat down cross-legged and entered his own sea of knowledge.

Within the sea of knowledge, a huge purple book occupies most of the space.

Looking at this quaint giant book, Ye Tongxuan couldn't help but think of the past.

Ye Tongxuan was originally an ordinary young man on earth who was keen on Taoism. Because I fell asleep in a Taoist temple, when I woke up again, I had already come to this world.

When he first came to this world, he was just a baby who had just fallen to the ground, and his parents named him Ye Tongxuan.

The first time he saw this ancient book was when he was six years old, when he awakened the spiritual root in his family.

The matter of the purple book is very important, even for his parents in this world, Ye Tongxuan did not reveal half a point.

The text in the book was obscure, and he spent a lot of effort searching for many books. Only then did I realize that the words in this book were written in ancient times.

Until now, Ye Tongxuan had only read the first few pages of the Purple Giant Book. As for the rest of the content, he can't read it for the time being.

The purple book is called "Hongmeng Taoist Sutra", and the number of words in the period is not much, but it is a small meaning. Ye Tongxuan often reviewed it, and over time, his comprehension ability also improved.

What's even more amazing is that this giant book can refine the surrounding aura, making it a purple qi that is more suitable for cultivators' cultivation. These purple qi were of great benefit to Ye Tongxuan's cultivation.

He was able to cultivate to the seventh level of Qi refining without resources, and the Hongmeng Dao Sutra contributed a lot.

In this world, Ye Tongxuan's mother was a monk in the early stage of Qi refining. His mother was injured when she gave birth to him, and she died soon after

Although his father was a monk in the middle stage of Qi refining, he was seriously injured when Ye Tongxuan entered the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range with his family to hunt demon beasts when he was six years old, and died soon after.

Although Ye Tongxuan came with the memories of his previous life, it took three years for him to gradually adapt to this world.

Rao is like this, and his adaptability to this world is also much higher than that of his peers. Whether it is the mastery of the words of this world, or the understanding of the meridians and knots, it is far beyond ordinary people.

The Qi refining period is the first stage that a monk has to go through in his cultivation. Qi refining requires exercising one's own aura through methods such as pranayama or qi.

In the early stage of qi refining, the main thing is to open up the meridians of the whole body, so that the aura can flow freely in the meridians. For monks, the sooner this step is, the better.

Because as we grow older, those unopened meridians are not nourished by the spiritual energy, and are gradually eroded by the turbid qi of the mortal world, which eventually leads to blockage. It takes a lot of resources and time to get through these blocked meridians.

Therefore, for monks, the sooner they embark on the path of cultivation, the better. It is a pity that the child's intelligence is not yet fully developed, and he is not able to understand the mystical meridians and acupoints.

In addition, when they were children, they were already fun-loving, and the boring meditation made them completely unconcerned about their cultivation.

Normal children, from the age of nine, systematically learn about cultivation.

At the age of eleven or twelve, he began to refine qi into the body under the guidance of his elders, and gradually opened up the meridians in his body.

At the age of sixteen or so, with the reserve of previous knowledge and a certain cultivation foundation, he began to learn immortal spells.

Although they are all simple spells, they can be regarded as officially stepping into the path of cultivating immortals.

Because Ye Tongxuan has the memory of his previous life, he is more mature than children of the same age, so he is a big step ahead of other monks in terms of understanding and self-discipline.

Now that Ye Tongxuan is sixteen years old, he is a seventh-level Qi refining cultivator, and this cultivation speed is even a few points faster than some single spirit root cultivators.

At that time, Ye Tongxuan's awakening was a thunder and fire dual-attribute spirit root, which belonged to a kind of mutated spirit root.

When a monk cultivates, the purer the spiritual root, the better, if a variety of attributes are mixed together, it will greatly delay the cultivation speed of the monk.

Among the spiritual roots, the slowest cultivation is the pseudo-spiritual root. Monks who possess this kind of spiritual root are usually accompanied by four or five attributes, and because the spiritual roots of each attribute are incomplete, the spiritual roots of different attributes are mixed with each other, and the spiritual roots are only an inch, so the cultivation speed is very slow.

Pseudo-spiritual root cultivators generally don't have much cultivation value. The family will not lean too many resources to cultivate such a clan, this kind of cultivator, cultivation can generally only stay in the early stage of qi refining.

Slightly better is the single spirit root cultivator, this kind of monk has a complete spiritual root, and he is naturally quite ahead in terms of cultivation speed. However, the talents of such individual spiritual root monks are also very different.

Ordinary single spirit root cultivators, the spirit root in the body is only three inches long, the talent is average, and it is also decent in cultivation, if nothing else, it can reach the ninth layer of qi refining, if there is an opportunity, it is not impossible to break through the foundation.

And the most gifted Heavenly Spirit Root Cultivator, the spiritual root is abundant, and the spiritual root of the Heavenly Spirit Root Monk is even stronger than that of an ordinary single Spirit Root Monk, and it is one foot long.

However, not all non-single spirit root cultivators are not highly talented, and there is one of them that is similar to a pseudo spirit root, but the cultivation potential is much greater than that of ordinary single attribute spirit roots.

This kind of spiritual root is called the true spiritual root, and unlike the pseudo-spiritual root, each spiritual root of the true spiritual root is very complete, although the spiritual root is not as long as a foot, but it is above three inches.

Therefore, for a true spiritual root monk, the more types of spiritual roots, the greater their potential.

The True Spiritual Root is also a very rare spiritual root, and very few monks can have such a talent.

Since there is no spiritual tablet in the family to detect the spiritual root, it can only be determined by relying on the experience of the elders in the family.

A spiritual root like Ye Tongxuan was not favored by the family at the beginning. The elders in the family all regarded him as an ordinary mutated spirit root and didn't pay too much attention to him.

The spiritual root can reflect a monk's cultivation potential, and the spiritual root test needs to be carried out by the spiritual tablet. The construction and launch of the Spirit Measuring Monument required a lot of spirit stones, and the Ye family naturally did not have such strength.

The Ye family could only roughly infer that it was a few spiritual root cultivators based on the experience of the foundation building monks and the cultivation speed of the clansmen.

Sixty years old is a watershed for monks, if a monk has not entered the ninth layer of qi refining at the age of sixty, then the probability of building a foundation will be very slim.

Of course, if there are enough spirit stones or elixirs as assistance, the monk will also have the opportunity to forcibly build the foundation. However, such a foundation building monk is much inferior in strength.

Ye Tongxuan's current resources in the family have far surpassed those of his peers. According to their cultivation potential, ordinary family disciples can have the opportunity to cultivate in Yunling Peak once a month or once a week.

But Ye Tongxuan was able to spend half of his time cultivating in Yunling Peak.

The aura of Yun Ling Peak, although it is not the strongest in the middle of the mountain, is enough for Ye Tongxuan to cultivate.

At present, most of the people who can cultivate for a long time on the mountainside of Yunling Peak are the Ye family's Shouzi generation or Yongzi generation. These monks are the backbone of the Ye family at present, and their cultivation resources are given priority to them.

Although the Yunling Peak can satisfy the cultivation of five foundation building cultivators at the same time, the vast majority of the clansmen in the family have withdrawn to the cultivation of the Yunling Peak, and under the skyrocketing number of people, it is naturally a little stretched to meet the cultivation of one family in Yunling Peak alone.

Although Ye Tongxuan is gradually being reused by the family, his cultivation resources are still very scarce. If there is no blessing of purple qi, I am afraid that I will still stay in the middle stage of qi refining.

The "Hongmeng Tao Sutra" can not only refine the aura, but also refine the spiritual objects such as the spirit stone.

Ye Tongxuan placed the spirit stone in the cave and refined it. After a period of time, he will be able to directly use purple qi to cultivate, greatly increasing his cultivation speed.

In this way, in a month, he has half a month of cultivation in Yunling Peak, and the remaining half a month, he refines his spiritual energy through the purple book to make up for the lack of cultivation resources.

In this way, Ye Tongxuan's monthly resources are barely enough.

But now that he is a cultivator in the late stage of Qi refining, such a method cannot support his future cultivation. He had to find a way to obtain cultivation resources, otherwise, his cultivation progress would be much slower.

Ye Tongxuan sighed in his heart, how could cultivation resources be so easy to get.

Some monks can exchange their skills for cultivation resources, such as refining medicines, refining weapons, or planting elixirs and domesticating demon beasts.

Monks who don't have skills can also make contributions, such as entering the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range to hunt monsters, or completing tasks to obtain family rewards.

It seems that there are many ways for monks to exchange for resources, but for Ye Tongxuan, who has no skills now, there is only a way to contribute.

The latter approach is undoubtedly more dangerous, but it is also very profitable.

What Ye Tongxuan can be sure of is that the family is now overstretched, and it is impossible to lean too many resources towards him. Even if there are extra resources, priority should be given to the monks of the Word Guardians. After all, they are currently the mainstay of the Ye family.

Thinking about it, it seems that there is only one way for me to work for my family. You can only exchange cultivation resources for undertaking family tasks.

Since he has this plan, Ye Tongxuan must also make corresponding preparations. Accept the task of the family, but you will face dangers outside the mountain, and you must have certain means of self-defense.

His plan was to buy some spirit runes for self-defense first. As for the green steel sword distributed in the family, it can still be used improvised. He wanted to buy spirit runes, and the Fang Market in the family was a good choice.
