Chapter Forty-Seven: Cultivating Immortals Realm Puzzle II
The sect masters of the Luoxia Sect in the past dynasties were not the people with the highest cultivation in the sect, but the foundation building monks who felt that it was impossible to further their cultivation and took the initiative to give up their cultivation and became enthusiastic about the affairs of the sect.
Now the sect master is a monk surnamed Wang in the late stage of foundation building, and he is in charge of affairs in various places in the sect, and he is also a monk in the foundation building period who took the initiative to give up cultivation. For example, a middle-aged man surnamed Feng who brought Qin Fengming here is responsible for the management of the spirit stones in the entire sect. and everyone in the Yunque Peak Hall, such as the old man surnamed Wei, the middle-aged man surnamed Ma, etc.
If a monk in the foundation building period successfully enters the Chengdan period, he will automatically become an elder of the Luoxia Sect, enjoy the worship in the sect, and his status is also very respected. Like the old man Simon with the sharp-beaked monkey cheeks.
There is a great elder position in the sect, who is responsible for the entire sect and does not manage specific affairs in normal times. Only concentrate on cultivation in order to succeed in getting married. At this time, the Great Elder of the Luoxia Sect was a monk surnamed Chen in the late stage of Yicheng Dan. It is only half a step away from the realm of infant transformation.
There are also some monks who, although they have not given up cultivation, are very enthusiastic about a certain aspect, such as Uncle Fei, who is very obsessed with refining weapons, and Uncle Lu who is keen on alchemy, and so on, and these people enjoy a very high status in the sect. Even the predecessors of the Chengdan period were very polite to them.
There are also some other disciples in the Qi Gathering Period, who have cultivated to the peak of the Qi Gathering Period, but when there is no hope of building a foundation, they will also act as deacons in some important places, such as Senior Brother Su of the Chuan Gong Temple.
The Luoxia Sect has the most disciples in the Qi Gathering Period, and these disciples have to do miscellaneous labor for a few days a month, and the rest of the time can be used by themselves. When you reach the ninth layer of cultivation, you will no longer be out of miscellaneous labor, and you can cultivate with peace of mind and prepare to build a foundation.
If the foundation is successfully built, you will be eligible to find a place with sufficient spiritual power in the Haoyue Mountain Range and open a cave by yourself. Generally, no one disturbs, but when the sect encounters danger, it must return to the sect to serve.
In the world of cultivating immortals, those who cultivate immortals in the same realm are friends with their peers, those who are in the higher realm are called seniors, and those who are in the same realm are called uncles or uncles.
Generally, high-level cultivators only concentrate on cultivation and will not accept disciples easily, unless there are special circumstances. Most of the monks are self-centered, and the concept of family affection is very indifferent.
"Luoxia Sect Benji" also introduces the current situation of the immortal cultivation world in the current Great Liang Kingdom.
Now there are three first-class factions in Daliang Kingdom: Chasing Wind Valley, Wangting Mountain, and Xiaoyaomen. Each faction has a predecessor in the infancy.
Among them, the strongest is the Wind Chasing Valley, which has a couple in the infant stage and a senior in the infant stage. Wangting Mountain and Xiaoyaomen both have two infancy seniors. These three first-class sects have more than 10,000 disciples.
Chasing the Wind Valley is located in the south-central part of the Wanqiong Mountains in the central part of the Great Liang Kingdom, in the central part of the Great Liang Kingdom, in the Taiyue Mountains and in the eastern part of the Great Liang Kingdom, and in the Yanling Mountains in the Xiaoyao Gate, in the northwest of the Great Liang Kingdom. The three factions are in a horn trend.
In addition to these three major factions, there are five smaller sects in the Great Liang Kingdom, although there are no infant monks in them, but their strength should not be underestimated, namely: Crouching Tiger Mountain, Luoxia Sect, Exorcism Gate, Blood Refining Gate, and Taixu Gate.
The rest are some smaller sects and immortal cultivation families, all attached to these sects. In addition to these sects and families, there are also a certain number of scattered cultivators. This constitutes the immortal cultivation realm of the entire Great Liang Country.
When the Luoxia Sect was opened, there were infancy monks. It controls the five prefectures and counties around Yingzhou County, but now it has become a second-rate sect, and it has long lost its strength, so now it can only control the southern counties together with Wohu Mountain.
After reading "The Book of Luoxia Sect", he spent two more days reading "The First Solution of Cultivating Immortals".
"The First Solution of Cultivating Immortals" systematically introduces the difference between immortal cultivators and mortals, who can cultivate immortals, and why people can't cultivate immortals, and the description in the book is very detailed.
There are many people in the world, and there are tens of millions of people in Yingzhou County alone, but there are very few people who can cultivate immortals, and even fewer people who can cultivate immortals and enter the realm of cultivating immortals.
When it comes to cultivating immortals, it is mandatory to mention 'spiritual roots'. It is mentioned in the book that all things have the five elements of heaven and earth: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Whether it is human beings or everything else, it is inseparable from these five attributes.
Man is known as the spirit of all things, once born, it has: metal, wood, water, fire, earth five elements, immortal cultivators call the five elements of the human body 'spiritual root', so people have: metal, wood, water, fire, earth five kinds of spiritual roots.
The five elements complement each other and restrain each other. For example, gold gives birth to water, water gives birth to wood, wood produces fire, fire gives birth to earth, and earth produces gold and gold are said to be complementary;
The 'spiritual power' mentioned by the monk is the power of the five elements contained in heaven and earth, and cultivation is the absorption of the power of the five elements contained in heaven and earth.
For example, if a person is a person who has the spiritual roots of the five elements, because the five elements are mutually restrained, he will feel the power of the five elements in heaven and earth, and the absorption will be extremely slow. This is what the monks call a person who has no spiritual roots.
Conversely, if a person lacks a 'spiritual root'. If a person lacks the 'earth spirit root', because the human body needs the attributes of the five elements, it must absorb the 'earth spirit power' from heaven and earth to supplement it (Mr. Lu Xun also mentioned that he wrote a "leap earth", that is, a child born with a lack of soil, and his family named him leap earth in order to prevent him from dying young, and carried earth items with him to make up for the 'earth').
Then he will be very sensitive to the 'earth spirit power', and he will absorb it relatively quickly. However, because the five elements are mutually restrained, other attributes will also restrict him from absorbing the 'earth spiritual power' from the outside world, so it is faster than those who have all the five spiritual roots, but it is not very fast.
If two or three spiritual roots are missing, then they are very sensitive to two or three spiritual powers in heaven and earth, and they will absorb the spiritual power of heaven and earth two to three times faster than if they lack one, and if they lack four spiritual roots, it will be faster.
In the world of cultivating immortals, people who lack 'spiritual roots' are called people who can cultivate immortals. The kind of spiritual root that he lacks is called having that kind of 'spiritual root attribute' to distinguish him from ordinary people.
However, there are very few people in human beings who have spiritual roots, and even fewer who have spiritual roots and can cultivate. Therefore, the number of monks is very scarce.
When he first entered the Luoxia Sect, Sect Master Wang and all the uncles tested his spiritual root attributes, that is, they crossed the power of the five elements into his body, and seeing that he had a sense of that kind of spiritual power, he could judge that he had that kind of spiritual root. Unfortunately, none of them were tested.
