Chapter 4: The Mysteries of the Heavenly Domain

"The Celestial Domain is a complex structure composed of countless spaces, each with different rules and environments, as well as different creatures and resources. There are passages and connections between these spaces that allow people to move from one space to another. But these channels and connections are not fixed, but change over time and space. Therefore, walking in the heavenly realm requires keen perception and judgment, otherwise it is easy to get lost or fall into danger. The hermit said.

"So how did these spaces come to be?" Ye Chen asked.

"This involves the origin of the Heavenly Domain. It is said that the Heavenly Domain was created by a supreme being, who is the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao and the master of the Heavenly Domain. He used his power to create countless spaces, and then divided himself into countless fragments, scattered in various spaces. These fragments are the hearts of the Heavenly Dao as mentioned in the Heavenly Dao Sutra, and they contain the mysteries and laws of the Heavenly Dao, which can allow cultivators to break through the limits and reach the supreme realm. The hermit said.

"Then why did he do it?" Bai Yun'er asked.

"I don't know. Maybe he wants to find some successors who can inherit his will and strength, maybe he wants to create some challenge and fun for himself, maybe he wants to achieve some higher goals. In short, after he did such a thing, he disappeared. No one knows where he went, and no one knows if he will ever come back. The hermit said.

"And does this supreme being have a name?" Ye Chen asked.

"Some call him God, some call him God, some call him the King of Heaven, some call him the Emperor of Heaven. But these are just the names people give him, not his real name. His true name is known only to him. The hermit said.

"And what shall we call him?" Bai Yun'er asked.

"You can call him whatever you want, or you may not call him at all. Because for us, he no longer exists. We just need to focus on our own survival and development in the Celestial Domain. The hermit said.

"Then how can we survive and thrive in the Heavenly Domain?" Ye Chen asked.

"It's up to you to make your own choices and goals. You can choose to join some faction or organization, or walk alone. You can choose to find some Heavenly Dao Hearts or other treasures, or concentrate on cultivation. You can choose to communicate with other creatures or fight or avoid strife. In short, in the Celestial Realm, you can do whatever you want, as long as you have the ability and courage. The hermit said.

"Do you have any advice or guidance?" Bai Yun'er asked.

"I can give you some basic advice and guidance, but it's up to you to make your own decisions. First of all, you need to understand the hierarchy of the Heavenly Domain. The creatures and spaces in the Heavenly Domain have different levels, from low to high, they are divided into nine levels, namely: Mortal Domain, Spirit Domain, Immortal Domain, Divine Domain, Sacred Domain, Dao Domain, Heavenly Domain, Void Domain, and Void Domain. Each level is further divided into nine stages, namely: Early, Middle, Late, Peak, Breakthrough, Entry, Completion, Consummation, and Supreme. The level of each creature and space affects their strength and status, as well as the range of space they are able to enter and explore. Generally speaking, it is difficult for low-level beings and spaces to enter high-level spaces unless there is a special opportunity or permission. High-level creatures and spaces can enter low-level spaces at will, but they will also be subject to certain restrictions or backlash. The hermit said.

"And what level are we now?" Ye Chen asked.

"You are now the early stage cultivators of the Mortal Realm, that is, the lowest level cultivators. You can only operate in the Mortal Realm, and you can only operate in the lowest level of space in the Mortal Realm. If you want to improve your level, you need to cultivate the methods in the Heavenly Dao True Scripture, absorb the power of the Heavenly Dao Heart, and break through your limits. The hermit said.

"How many methods are there in the Heavenly Dao Sutra?" Bai Yun'er asked.

"There are countless methods in the Heavenly Dao Sutra, and each method has different characteristics and effects. Some are good for attacking, some are good for defense, some are good for moving, some are good for changing, some are good for healing, some are good for perception...... In short, there are all the methods in the Heavenly Dao Sutra that can be chosen by practitioners according to their preferences and needs. However, not all methods are suitable for all practitioners. Every practitioner has their own talents and potentials, as well as their own flaws and weaknesses. Therefore, when choosing a method, you should consider your own conditions and circumstances, and choose the method that suits you best. The hermit said.

"Then how do we choose the method?" Ye Chen asked.

"It's up to you to try and feel for yourself. There is a special method in the Heavenly Dao Sutra called the Heavenly Dao Induction Technique. It allows the practitioner to resonate with the heart of the Heavenly Dao, so that they can sense the most suitable method for themselves. You can practice this method first, and then use it to find other methods. The hermit said.

"And where is this method?" Bai Yun'er asked.

"This method is in the first chapter of this book, you can open the book and see what it is about." The hermit said.

He handed the Heavenly Dao True Scripture to Ye Chen and Bai Yun'er and asked them to open the first chapter. After Ye Chen and Bai Yun'er opened the book, they found that the title of the first chapter was "Heavenly Dao Induction Technique", and there was a brief introduction below:

"Heavenly Dao Induction Technique" is a method that allows practitioners to resonate with the heart of Heavenly Dao, allowing practitioners to sense the most suitable method for themselves. Cultivating this method requires keen perception and flexible thinking, as well as firm conviction and courage. The steps to practice this method are as follows:

The first step is to adjust your state so that you can reach the state of calm and calm, and the unity of body and mind.

The second step is to activate one's own aura so that it flows throughout the body, forming a cycle of aura.

The third step is to connect one's aura with the words in the Heavenly Dao Sutra to make it resonate.

The fourth step is to select one or more Heavenly Dao Hearts to sense according to your own feelings and intuition.

The fifth step is to find the most suitable method for yourself according to the feedback and guidance of the Heavenly Dao Heart, and start cultivating.

"It doesn't seem too difficult." Bai Yun'er said.

"Don't underestimate this method, it's simple, but it's profound. It requires you to have a keen sense and a flexible mind, as well as conviction and courage. You must know that the hearts of the Heavenly Dao are not so easy to sense, they have their own will and choices. Some Heavenly Dao Hearts may reject your induction, some Heavenly Dao Hearts may test your will, and some Heavenly Dao Hearts may mislead your direction. So, when you practice this method, you have to be careful not to give up or lose yourself easily. The hermit said.

"We get it." Ye Chen and Bai Yun'er nodded.

"Alright then, then I'll let you try this method first. You can cultivate here, and I will be watching and guiding you from the side. If you have any questions or difficulties, please feel free to ask me. The hermit said.

"Thank you, sir." Ye Chen and Bai Yun'er said.

They began to cultivate according to the methods in the Heavenly Dao True Scripture. They first adjusted their state so that they reached the state of calm and calm, and the unity of body and mind. They then activated their aura and caused it to flow throughout their bodies, forming a cycle of aura. Then they connected their aura to the words in the Heavenly Dao Sutra, causing it to resonate. In the end, according to their own feelings and intuition, they chose one or more Heavenly Dao Hearts to sense.

Ye Chen chose three Heavenly Dao Hearts for induction, namely: wind, thunder, and sword. His aura is trying to illuminate or manifest it. Bai Yun'er felt the brightness and warmth of the Heart of Light, and also felt the clarity and truth of the Heart of Light. She did not hide or hide, but used her aura to correspond to the Heart of Light, trying to show or enhance its power.

In this way, Ye Chen and Bai Yun'er had some induction and communication with the heart of the Heavenly Dao, and experienced some tests and tempering. Their aura and mind have been improved and changed to a certain extent, and they have also gained some understanding and understanding of their own methods.

The hermit watched their cultivation from the sidelines, giving them tips and advice from time to time. He was amazed and appreciative of their performance, but also looked forward to and curious about their potential.

"The two of you are really not simple, being able to have such a deep feeling with the heart of the Heavenly Dao in such a short period of time shows that you have extraordinary talent and fate. The method you have chosen is also very distinctive, wind, thunder, sword, water, and light, these five powers are the most common and powerful forces in the Heavenly Domain, and they are also the most difficult to master and use. If you are able to cultivate successfully, then you will have extraordinary strength and status. The hermit said.

"Thank you, old man, for the compliment." Ye Chen and Bai Yun'er said.

"But don't be complacent, you're only the first step and there's still a long way to go. You must know that the hearts of the Heavenly Dao are not so easy to control and integrate, they have their own personalities and characteristics, as well as their own requirements and conditions. If you want to truly succeed in cultivating, you need to achieve a perfect fit and resonance with the heart of the Heavenly Dao, which requires you to put in more effort and time. The hermit said.

"We get it." Ye Chen and Bai Yun'er said.

"Alright then, then I'll teach you some basic methods and techniques first. These methods and techniques can help you better communicate and coordinate with the Heart of the Heavenly Dao, and can also help you better use the power of the Heart of the Heavenly Dao. Listen carefully and don't miss a single detail. The hermit said.

"Okay." Ye Chen and Bai Yun'er said.

They began to listen attentively to the hermit's explanations. The hermit spoke in detail and in depth, which benefited them a lot. From time to time, they ask questions or make presentations, and get answers or pointers from the hermits. In this way, under the guidance of the hermit, they began their first cultivation in the Heavenly Domain.
