Chapter 14 Innate
On this huge planet, the division of power between the nine levels of civilization such as primary, middle, and high school can be said to be distinct.
Civilizations that have not yet ended their civil wars and have been blessed by the gods to allow the establishment of temples are collectively referred to as backward civilizations or barbarian tribes. Although this backward civilization has a huge population, it cannot be recognized by the mainland temple at all because it lacks a master at the level of a sword master and does not have the right to communicate with the gods.
Without the approval of the gods, it is equivalent to having no human rights. Any primary or intermediate empire that discovered such a continent could be designated as a jurisdiction to produce slaves exclusively for the state. In the entire planet, these backward civilizations can be seen almost everywhere, spread very widely, and the number of statistics is huge, definitely more than 30 million, which is still a conservative estimate.
Unified his own country, and a first-order sword master appeared in the territory, he could immediately contribute a certain amount of glorious feats to obtain the favor of the gods, and asked to descend the idol to establish a temple and become an empire. The temple not only has the effect of communicating with the gods, but also attracts the free energy elements in the air to a certain extent, making the place shrouded by the temple a holy place for cultivation. Not only that, but the temple also has the effect of exchanging honors and various magical treasures.
Newly formed empires are extremely fragile in their own right, and tend to bow down to nearby powerful empires in order to gain the protection of their overlords. Those empires that think they can survive on the mainland will generally be eliminated in the long river of history in less than a hundred years.
Although they became an empire and established a temple, the people began to have certain human rights, but because of their backward strength, the emperor of the first-level empire may not be more noble than the ordinary nobles of a fourth-level empire.
The primary empire must go through the process of a first-level empire, a second-level empire, and a third-level empire before it can be promoted to an intermediate imperial civilization. In this promotion process, the country not only needs to gain the support of the first-order, second-order, and third-order sword masters, but also needs to have enough glorious merits in exchange for the grace of the gods to upgrade the temple.
After a first-order civilization has a certain amount of national strength and has at least one second-order sword master in charge, this second-order powerhouse can pay for glorious feats and plead with the gods in the temple to send down a trial task as a test for promotion to a second-order empire. No one would have known beforehand what the trial mission would be. Or find some kind of magical ore plant, or kill some murderous and bloodthirsty high-level magical beasts, or it may be two empires that are promoted at the same time.
As long as you complete the trial tasks assigned by the gods, you will be considered to have passed the test and promoted to the second-level empire. Not only will the temple become more magnificent, but the efficiency of energy absorption will also be greatly improved, and more advanced magical items will begin to be sold.
The level promotion of the Intermediate Empire and the Advanced Empire is also the same as that of the Junior Empire, but as a mid-level and high-level Empire, if they want to increase their level, whether it is the strength of the strong who pleads for divine grace or the difficulty of the trial mission, they all have an extremely huge increase. For example, if an eighth-order civilization wants to be promoted to a ninth-level civilization, it must have a ninth-order sword master, and a ninth-order sword master leading a group of seventh- and eighth-order sword masters is absolutely impossible to complete the trial task of advancing to civilization.
So far, even the Glory Empire, the world's number one powerhouse with two ninth-order sword masters, has not yet passed the test of advancing to a ninth-order civilization.
......
Ling Yun didn't say hello to Lin Cheng's family and left Sunny City directly. According to the memories he has sorted out recently, the pool of the Lin family is very deep. Even if the family background has declined now, there is hardly a decent master to be found in it, but after all, he has had something to do with the first family of the seventh-level civilization before, and the whole family is full of a mystery that is not known to outsiders.
After leaving Sun City, he began to live the life of an ascetic aimlessly.
The continent on which the Purple Cloud Empire is located is quite large, and I am afraid that it is not inferior to the entire Asia and Europe continents on the earth. Walking outside, you can see a huge mountain range of more than 5,000 meters high everywhere, there are few people inside, and the products are abundant, but there are many fierce birds and monsters living there, and ordinary people dare not enter. There are also deep mountains and old forests, large areas of ancient trees, up to 100 meters, six people are difficult to hug, covering the sky, forming a forest world. Even the sunlight could not penetrate the thick canopy and shine on the earth.
Walking in the woods and grasslands, there are poisonous insects, snakes and ants, plagues and poisonous miasma, making it difficult for ordinary people to walk. But for Ling Yun, who is really angry and has a unique skill, it is not enough to be troubled.
Step by step, he was down-to-earth and felt the pulse of the earth. Cross the mountains and cross the river every river. Drink the clear spring of the mountain stream, eat the rare spiritual fruits, absorb the essence of the moon, the breath of heaven and earth, and feel the mystery of nature and the vastness of the universe. Whenever I encounter a feeling or a slight breakthrough, I will find a quiet cave, close the cave and retreat, I don't know the time, I don't know the years, either three or five days, or one or two months, but also enjoy themselves.
This kind of unrestrained, heaven and earth as a companion of life, makes people feel open and clear, which is exactly what Lingyun dreams of.
There are no mundane things, no worries, no grievances and hatreds, disturbing my mood, no but frightened, secretly demonic. Only with a little gratitude, sighing, guarding the spiritual platform, sending affection to the landscape, and listening to the songs of heaven and earth.
......
There is no time in the mountains, and in the blink of an eye, it has been two years.
Lingyun is between the mountains and forests, cultivating and advancing aimlessly, which is quite happy. During this period, he also suffered danger to his life, and accidentally entered the territory of a certain fierce demonic beast, and almost died on the spot. After all, penance, not tourism.
However, as long as the mind is peaceful, the true spirit and true surname are adhered to, and the pain and fatigue are not afraid, no matter how much suffering there is, they will move forward. This kind of leisurely life, feeling the feelings of heaven and earth, secretly combining Taoism with the unity of heaven and man, and integrating into the subtle artistic conception of natural enlightenment, has made his cultivation greatly improved in just two years.
The upper and lower meridians of the body are connected, circulating around the sky, connecting the bridge of heaven and earth. Under the autonomous operation of the True Qi, the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi immediately poured in from the pores of the body, merging into the innate True Qi that was like a rushing river, growing it and filling all the cells in the body, transforming this originally fragile body.
After two years of penance, his cultivation has not only broken through to the peak of the innate realm equivalent to the master of the swordsman of this planet in one fell swoop, but even the true qi in his body has completely transformed into the incomparable sharp Nine-Nine Upper Xuan Sword Qi!
Ninety-Nine Shangxuan Sword Qi and Dou Qi are both extremely strong offensive energy, but there is a huge difference between the two. The power contained in the fighting spirit is like a bomb, and once it explodes, it will violently cause destruction and destruction to the surrounding area. And the Xuanjian Qi on the Ninety-Nine Heavens, he was like a laser, condensing all the energy into a point and shooting out, piercing the things that were blocking in front of him with a sword.
Use bombs, hurt others and hurt yourself, and lasers are the light of light, and the ashes are annihilated, and you can know who is strong and who is weak.
After two years of cultivation, Ling Yun had been able to fully feel the power of the Ninety-Nine Xuan Sword Qi in his body, and he only needed to go through another battle of evenly matched powerhouses, and he would immediately be able to help him naturally enter the innate Mahayana realm, which was the highest achievement in his life.
Only by becoming a powerhouse at the innate Mahayana level can one have the qualifications to continue to cultivate the Fourth Sword Realm of the Ninety-Nine Shangxuan and condense the Yuan Shen Sword Soul.
He had seen the previous way of refining qi with his own eyes on the earth, and he had also received the guidance of a master to achieve the subtlety of refining qi. And what he is about to face after entering the Innate Mahayana will be the first hurdle in his cultivation, and it will also be the first difficulty in his life cultivation path - condensing the sword soul!
The soul of the sword is the soul of a sword. Only after truly entering this realm can the sword in his hand be alive because of blood, turn decay into magic, and become a true sword cultivator with soul and life.
Qi is a kind of energy that can be felt, knows what it is, and knows how to cultivate. The soul is a kind of mysterious existence, which is incomprehensible to everyone and cannot be spoken. To get in touch with this realm, what is needed is no longer a long retreat and cultivation, nor is it a powerful innate true qi and an extraordinary physical fitness. He needs people to think, to explore, to perceive, to comprehend the soul of the sword...... When did you realize that you will naturally enter that realm and achieve the magic power of a sword fairy on the earth.
......
The night is charming and the sky is full of stars.
Looking at the huge full moon that was almost in front of him, Ling Yun felt a great mood: "As long as the innate qi in the body is completed and the gas state is turned into a liquid state, you can start to impact the realm that all sword cultivators dream of - condensing the sword soul." Once the condensation is successful, you can break free from the shackles of the earth and soar freely above the void. ”
