Chapter 168: The Past of the Demon Sect

At this time, Tian Jihong also recalled the practice of martial arts mentioned by his father when he was a child, in fact, for monks, the more talented and intelligent a genius like Tian Jihong, the earlier he can start the process of opening up the martial arts. For Tianjiao, whose cultivation foundation is more stable and his spiritual power is more powerful, it will be ten times easier than ordinary people to use his spiritual power to open up the martial vein, and there are even many peerless wizards like Tianjihong who have been released to the martial vein cultivation in the Kaiyuan Realm. This is also one of the reasons why those true descendants of the great sects can easily defeat opponents of the same level.

With his father's reminder, Tian Jihong himself is also very aware of the role of martial arts practice, and he and his younger brother saw a copy of the "Shura Heart Method" left by his father and mother in the cellar a few days ago. This is also one of the reasons why many ordinary people have not had the opportunity to practice high-level exercises in their lifetime, in the case of these casual cultivators who have no talent and no background, even if they rely on the accumulation of years and years to pile up their cultivation to the level of enough to practice high-level exercises, if their martial arts have not been opened to the cultivation standard, they are also facing the danger of backlash of the exercises.

And now, Tianjihong, who is only cultivating in the Kaiyuan Realm, is already able to vaguely perceive the bottleneck caused by the five major martial veins of the human body as the spiritual power in his body tends to be saturated. It's just that after thinking for a while, Tian Jihong chose to follow the master's instructions and did not continue to improve his cultivation, he understood that although his foundation was quite solid at this time, there was still room for improvement in this realm, and his soul power cultivation had just begun, and he was not so proficient in the use of the martial soul's spiritual power to reconcile spiritual power and soul power, and this was not the best time to think about continuing to improve his spiritual power and impact the first martial vein.

So Tian Jihong also shifted his attention to the [Wraith Soul Formula] spread out in front of him, and when he browsed the contents, he realized that as the core essence of the Sea Demon Sect, the Wraith Soul Recipe itself is also complementary to the exercises practiced within the Demon Sect, which can be described as highly binding. Only by operating the internal strength of the Demon Sect can the demonic energy be generated in the spiritual power, so that it can be further combined with the methods described in the Wraith Soul Recipe to practice.

"Heaven and earth are vast, thousands of years are long, it is the battle between gods and demons to transform heaven and earth as the two poles, and demons are not demons, only with the demonic energy through the body to transform the body of the netherworld, can you quench and condense the mind, and reach the top of the soul and the underworld..."

According to the records in the Wraith Soul Formula, as early as thousands of years ago, there was a supreme existence called the [Demon God] born in the Douwu Continent. Everywhere it passed, the creatures were devastated and the bones were all over the field, and all the sects and factions in the martial arts world gathered all their strength to kill this demon, and after paying the price of almost the same death, after all, the evil did not prevail over the good, and the continent was peaceful.

However, since then, the inheritance left by the demon god has spread all over the continent, and according to legend, there is still a hidden demon inheritance in the continent that has not been discovered. And the most well-known among them is the force that was born as the predecessor of the Demon Sect in the Zhonghai region. The latter is to combine and refer to the exercises practiced by the demon god to create a unique divine skill in the same era, and the people who practice this exercise have almost reached the level of looking down on the continent and fighting all over the world, and it is such a group of people who gathered to find the Tianwu realm at the core of the Zhonghai region, and opened up the largest town in Zhonghai [Tianwu Holy Capital].

It's just that what people didn't expect was that after that, all the people who practiced the exercises passed down by the demon gods, when they broke through the bottleneck and comprehended the supreme realm of the exercises, they were all devoured by the demonic energy, and finally inevitably fell into the demon path and became a walking corpse who only knew how to kill. And such a group of powerful and terrifying beings incarnated into a nightmare among the continents at that time, and the concept of the demon god cleansing the monks on the continent was passed down in the hands of this group of people.

According to the book, I don't know who was in the middle of the sea to secretly intervene, and finally put down this second disaster. The forces formed by this group of people were obviously condemned and threatened by various sects on the continent, and finally collapsed. However, in the following decades, Zhonghai cultivators were unwilling to be cut off like this, and after learning the lessons of their predecessors, they simplified the previous advanced demon god exercises, although the power was reduced, but at the same time, they also avoided the danger of facing the erosion of demonic qi in the later stage of cultivation.

Then the [Zhonghai Demon Sect] was born, compared to the previous Zhonghai monks who devoted themselves to studying the essence of the Demon God Technique, the Demon Sect found another way, and turned to the cultivation of the Divine Soul based on the Wraith Soul Technique, supplemented by the external sword technique as a cooperation, and created such a behemoth in Zhonghai Although it started with demonic energy, it was not an evil sect.

And as Nie Qian mentioned before, the mystery in this Wraith Soul Recipe is no less than the exercises left by the Demon God, otherwise it would not be able to achieve the miraculous effect of restricting the entry of demonic qi into the body. According to the records in the book, the cultivation of this Wraith Soul Technique has almost strict requirements for the cultivation realm of the cultivator, and the breakthrough of each of the nine levels of the Wraith Soul corresponds to one or two realms of spiritual power cultivation. Since the founding of the Demon Sect, no one has ever been able to break this restriction and comprehend the higher level of the Wraith Soul Technique at a lower level.

Tian Jihong naturally did not believe that a person like himself from an outer door could break this traditional constraint, and he cautiously began to refer to the most superficial method of the Wraith Soul as described in the book. Even if the more the Wraith Soul Technique is cultivated in the later stage, the more terrifying its power becomes, but the refinement of each Wraith Soul Recipe not only relies on spiritual cultivation to improve it, but also requires the integration of the cultivation techniques as the foundation for the first few times. This is also why, until today, in the hundreds of years since the establishment of the Demon Sect, there are very few people who can comprehend this Ninefold Supreme Realm of the Wraith Soul.

After spending nearly an hour of enlightenment, Tian Jihong finally memorized this wraith soul mantra firmly in his heart, and roughly combined with the martial soul above the dantian to run the mantra. It's a pity that the time is short at this time, and he doesn't have the basic exercises that can cultivate demonic qi in the Demon Sect, so he doesn't have too obvious effects on the improvement of soul power.

Tian Ji Hong was not discouraged, there are also a few words about the [Spirit Soul Mind Method] of the introduction of the Demon Sect in this Wraith Soul Formula, although it cannot be cultivated as a complete mental method for the improvement of spiritual power, but it is enough to use it as the introduction of the Wraith Soul Trick to exert demonic energy, and Tian Jihong is confident that he will be able to master the essence of this Wraith Soul within a week.

What made Tianjihong wake up from his cultivation was the rising sun in the eastern sea. Although it was not yet an hour, the morning sun in the middle of summer had already brought a touch of heat to the unobstructed huts in the wilderness. At this time, Tian Jihong, who woke up from his cultivation, changed from the hard work of running around all day yesterday, and he was full of energy, and he also recalled his plan for today.

"It seems that the practice of one night is very rewarding, not bad!" Li Ming, who had already set off in advance on the side, came over, obviously also aware of Tianjihong's full state and more stable aura, "Now that your kid has really sat down in the cultivation of the [Early Stage of Kaiyuan Realm], the cultivation of soul power can be regarded as an official start, and it is only one step away from the initial [Entry] Realm." ”

"Oh? Does this cultivation of soul power also have a division of realms? Why haven't you heard about it before, Master? Tian Jihong couldn't help but be stunned.

"Hehe, it can indeed be said that the division of soul power is not based on the level of the monk's soul power, and the more recognized way of distinguishing between monks is based on the degree of condensation of their own soul power, and what effect they can achieve in cultivation or actual combat." Li Ming replied.

"For example, what is required for this entry realm, in addition to having a complete soul power method, you must also condense real soul power through your own cultivation or soul fighting, and you can cast it at a distance of ten meters away from your body to reach the standard. The division of this soul power realm is not very much, which has led to the gap between the different realms like a chasm, like Master, because I have not put much effort into the cultivation of soul power, and now it is only the [Subtle Realm] after just stepping into the entry realm. ”

"What needs to be achieved at this level is to be able to perceive many details of things around us through one's own soul consciousness, just like looking at a plant and a tree under a magnification mirror. In actual combat, it has the ability to be almost unpredictable, whenever the opponent just turns around, or gathers spiritual power in a certain part of the body, the monk who has entered the subtle realm can immediately detect it, and prepare accordingly in advance. ”

Tian Jihong also nodded to show that he understood, he already had several actual combat experience, of course, he could hear the huge advantages that such an ability could play in the duel, you must know that in the duel of life and death, even a moment of hesitation will lead to disastrous consequences, and he is also extremely coveted for the ability to perceive the opponent's actions first.

"And in the realm after entering the subtle realm, being a teacher is only limited to hearing and hearing, such as the vastness, integration, and climbing to the peak. And the teacher also mentioned before that the division of the soul power realm and the monk's own soul power strength can not be confused, many masters who have not paid attention to the cultivation of soul power, when the spiritual power and soul power cultivation have reached a very high level, the soul power realm may still stay at the entry level, such a character is indeed far inferior to the opponent who is consistent in cultivation but has a higher soul power realm in actual combat, but it does not mean that this kind of person's soul power perception will be very weak, and he still can't be careless to underestimate the enemy, understand? Li Ming admonished.

"Apprentice remember, thank you Master for your doubts." Tianjihong couldn't help but think of the duel between the young man of the Yuzong and Bai Xing'er in Dongsheng Town at that time, it was obvious that when the cultivation realm of the two was not much different, in addition to the huge advantage of the former's fighting soul, his soul power realm was obviously a level higher than that of Bai Xing'er, and the actual combat results were almost crushing as he saw it.

"By the way, the division is about to leave to visit the lair of the mountain bandits again to see if we can find traces of a few people who escaped. Didn't you say yesterday that you were going to inform the shopkeeper of Nalin not to go to Dongsheng Town, if it's too late, I'm afraid it will be too late. Li Ming said suddenly.
