Chapter 198: What is Cultivation?
It is inevitable that a person will be faced with such and such choices on the path of monasticism. For example, some people have poor qualifications since childhood, so they can only practice diligently and put in more effort and sweat than others to reach a certain height. And some people can only practice some special exercises or attribute strength because of their special physique. Some people rely on their own talent to have a certain understanding of herbs and medicinal effects.
Then it will develop towards the aspect of refining pills, in short, the path of cultivation is endless, and at the same time, it is also full of thorns. No matter which path you choose, you must stick to it and make a certain amount of effort, there is no pie in the sky, and there is no possibility of getting something for nothing. At this moment, Aokikawa is also facing a difficult choice. Whether to give up the powerful power of the water source in the body, so as to concentrate on cultivating the strength of the wood system, or to be a dual-line practitioner,
In the future, we will face all kinds of unknown circumstances. For a while, Aoki Chuan felt heavy as he had never felt before, and Aoki Chuan had faced some choices before, but it would not take long for those choices to be verified to be correct. And this time there are some unknown factors in the choice. Just choosing the method of dual initiates involves many unknowable things. Both the water and wood systems have cultivated to the late stage of the power of wood, whether they will really be able to make a breakthrough, or whether some mutations will occur, these are unknown. Because the phoenix eagle beasts all said that they had never met a successful dual-line initiate. Not to mention reaching a certain height.
"This senior, junior daring to ask, do the Ancient Five Emperors and the Immortal Beasts all have multi-system strength? Do they know some secret things, and these secret things have a certain relationship with the cultivation of multi-system power?" Aoki Chuan was in a dilemma. It's hard to make up your mind, because there are drawbacks to this choice. So Aoki River did not choose in time. Instead, he asked about something that seemed unrelated. Although this matter does not seem to have much to do with Aokikawa's choice. But only Aokigawa himself knows in his heart,
The answer of the phoenix eagle beast will affect Aokikawa's choice to a certain extent. "Why do you ask that? If you don't say this now, and you make the wrong choice, maybe in the future you really reach that state, and you will definitely resent me. First of all, I can tell you clearly that if you want to become a peerless powerhouse, you must be able to use multi-system power. Otherwise, you will never reach a supreme realm. Therefore, whether it is the Immortal Beast or the Five Ancient Emperors, all of them have multiple systems of power, and the strength of each system is not weak. They all have their own unique understandings. Speaking of which. I have to mention the Avenue of the World. To put it simply, each system of force can be regarded as a kind of avenue, such as the amount of wood force, which can be referred to as the way of wood.
Once you can understand the true meaning of the way of wood, it means that you have a certain level of understanding of the power of wood. The way of the wood is immutable. However, everyone's level of understanding and perception of it is also different. For example, both of them explored part of the meaning of the way of wood at the same time. If anyone understands it deeper and more thoroughly. Then the amount of wood power that runs out must be stronger than that of another person. Each system of strength cultivation to the peak, will produce a sense of the great avenue of this system of strength, so that you can use the strength of this system more skillfully. For any peerless powerhouse, they must cultivate themselves and have multiple strengths, so there is no need to explain this in detail, not to mention such a strong person, just some ordinary monks, the more strength they have, the stronger the strength. As for why you have to have multiple powers, this will involve the legendary realm. This realm is the way of heaven.
It is also the supreme realm that the Five Emperors of the Ancient Ages and some powerful monster human monks have been striving for. No one knows what the Dao of Heaven is, and no one knows how the Dao of Heaven can reach the realm of the Dao of Heaven. I don't know how powerful the power of the Dao of Heaven is. According to the experience summed up by many predecessors, the more you understand, the stronger your strength, and the more unfathomable your cultivation will be. According to this convention, if you want to reach a higher and stronger realm, then you can undoubtedly only understand the meaning of more Great Dao, and as for how many Great Dao True Meanings you can step into that legendary realm after understanding how many Great Dao Truths, these are unknown. Of course, the idea that the more you understand, the more you can step into that realm, is not necessarily correct, because no one can verify this. That's why I don't have any advice on how to make your choice. So as not to affect your own inner instinct choices. "The Phoenix Eagle Divine Beast didn't expect Aoki Chuan to ask such a deep question. With a long sigh, he finally told some secret things.
"I didn't expect it to be so complicated, the true meaning of the Great Dao? How many kinds of Great Dao are there in the world? Who can cultivate all of them to that peak realm? But since you have stepped into the path of cultivation, isn't it the peak of martial arts that you are pursuing all the way? If you know that the Dao has a higher realm and stronger strength, instead of pursuing, but is in a corner of peace, then it will definitely have a negative impact on your own character. If we can't sincerely and openly seek the Dao, then we will naturally not be able to truly comprehend the true meaning of some Dao. Wouldn't this be a violation of the vow I made when I stepped into the path of cultivation?" After the words of the Phoenix Eagle Divine Beast fell, Aoki Chuan's heart was surging with excitement, and after learning that there was an unknown mysterious realm on the way to cultivation, Aoki Chuan's heart that had not been silent boiled even more. That is the respect for the strong, the yearning for strength, and the desire for the avenue.
That's right, in the depths of Aokikawa's heart, he has never given up even the slightest opportunity, as long as he can go further on the way of cultivation, no matter how much hardship he needs to pay, Aokigawa will not avoid it, but will rise to the occasion, this is Aokikawa's belief, and it is also the heart that Aokikawa gradually cultivated on the way of cultivation. That kind of unwavering obsession with monasticism. The so-called pursuit of a higher realm of the Tao even after exhausting one's life is the truest thought in Aokikawa's heart.
What is the Tao of Cultivation? What is the Tao? The ancients once said that the Tao is the Tao, but it is not the Tao! The Tao is mysterious and mysterious, and it cannot be captured. But in fact, can't we really capture the traces of the Tao? Cultivation is actually the cultivation of the mind, the cultivation of the human heart. As long as your mind is calm and resolute, then it may only be a matter of time before you want to comprehend the true meaning of the Great Dao.
As for the avenue being illusory and difficult to capture, this statement is actually one-sided. Only those monks and monsters who wandered on the edge of the Great Dao would think that the Great Dao was unpredictable. That's because they don't have the fortitude of mind, they haven't been able to really go deep, and they've not been able to comprehend what the essence of the Great Dao is. Just a rough understanding of the surface, I think that I have understood the so-called Great Dao, but in fact, this is wrong. When you really have an epiphany, you will find that the Tao is everywhere, just like the air around you, you can feel it everywhere, but you can't see it. This is the boundary between the illusory and the real of the avenue. You can't see it, it's illusory,
But once you understand the true avenue, you can really feel its existence, and this is the real side of it. "It's good that you have a firm and persistent heart, but after you choose, there is no turning back, and it is impossible to go another way. Because your current water system strength is just beginning, and your foundation is not strong, it shouldn't take much energy to pull it out, and it won't cause serious trauma to your body. However, if you choose the dual-system cultivation method, after a period of time, the strength of the two systems of water and wood in your body will be reconciled and adapted to each other, and it will not be easy to extract it.
So it's better to think about it. "How shrewd the phoenix eagle beast is, I naturally heard its voice from Aoki Chuan's words, that is, Aoki Chuan's final choice. The phoenix eagle beast pointed out the stakes in it. That is, no matter which method you choose, once you choose, there is no turning back. It is also true that nothing is perfect. Sometimes it takes a certain amount of courage to make a clear choice, no matter how difficult and difficult it may be. "Thank you for your advice, but I think I've already made a decision. I chose the method of two series of force and quantity initiates. Although I have not been in cultivation for a long time, I have never changed the obsession in my heart from beginning to end. It was, it is, and it will still be. That is the pursuit of great power and the strong desire for those mysterious and unpredictable realms.
If you don't have the strength, you can only be bullied by others, which is the obsession I had when I first cultivated the Tao. And now, if I can't pursue a higher realm and stronger strength, then I will feel that I have come to this world in vain, and I can't persist in the most determined pursuit in my heart, so what can I hold on to and what else can I do on the way of cultivation in the future? Aokigawa had already thought that something would happen after making a choice, and even if it caused him to not be able to start all over again and choose another path, then he would not regret it. This is where Aokigawa's belief lies, his firm belief in the avenue and his unwavering will!
"Well, since you've made your choice, I'll tell you some details later. I persuaded you not to return to Baicaomen for two reasons. One is because you hold a divine weapon like the Wooden Sword, and you have been known to everyone on the top of Baicao Mountain before, if you return to Baicaomen alive, it will not only put you in danger, but also make Baicaomen face certain dangers. Secondly, because of the two systems of exercises in your body, from my contact with you,
I think you will choose the two systems of strength and quantity cultivation methods. In that case, you will have to speed up the cultivation of the water system power, and the strongest thing in the Wood Spirit County is the wood type aura. So even if you go back to Baicaomen, it won't help. Whatever the reason, there's no need for you to go back to Baicaomen. And from now on you will hide your identity,
Until the moment when you really have the strength to possess the Wood Sword. Do you understand my words?" Due to the condition of Aoki Chuan's body, the Phoenix Eagle Divine Beast suggested that he did not need to return to Baicaomen. Instead, you need to endure until the day when you have achieved cultivation, and then you can truly stand on the land of Kyushu. (To be continued......)
