Chapter Twenty-Four: The Academy
A few days later.
"Today is a history lesson, and we're going to talk about the origins of the monks. The school elder coughed, knocked on the bamboo pole in his hand, and began to talk eloquently: "In ancient times, the demon clan ruled the world and brutally oppressed our human race. At that time, the demon clan regarded our human race as slaves and built a palace for them, and even the vast majority of the demon clan regarded our human race as food. ”
"We have spent thousands of years of miserable life like this. But there is no way to be endless, and later, our human race complied with the mandate of heaven, and two saviors appeared, and they created a "Huachi" that can make the human race cultivate by condensing the demon pill condensed by the demon power, and opened up the spiritual vein dedicated to the transmission of spiritual power. With the "Hua Chi" and the spiritual vein, the human race successfully got rid of the embarrassment that the previous body could not condense and retain the aura, and even went further, and promoted it to condensed into a golden pill, thus reaching a higher level. And on this basis, a large number of monks who can resist the demon race have appeared in the human race, laying a deep foundation for the human race to overthrow the rule of the demon race. ”
"Under the leadership of the two saviors, the Terrans successfully overthrew the rule of the Demon Race, and the Demon Race suffered heavy casualties, except for a few Demon Clans because of their own characteristics, which were accommodated by the Terrans. Most of the other demon clans were forced to retreat to another world, which was full of abysses and desolations. That world, now called desolate by us, has been blocked. But before the demon clan retreated, the leader of the demon clan, the demon emperor Jun, in order to leave a fire for the demon clan, exploded his cultivation, and turned his demon power into the "emperor flow pulp" that spread the world, and from then on, all the beasts in the world can open their spiritual wisdom and can cultivate demons through their own efforts. They have succeeded in transforming and always wreaking havoc on one side of the people, which is one of the reasons why we monks have established so many sects. ”
Later, one of the two saviors of the human race, the Liyang Demon Lord, was dissatisfied with ruling the world with the Emperor Hong Immortal Monarch, so he took the lead in launching an attack on the area ruled by the Emperor Hong Immortal Monarch. It was really a protracted war, and the Liyang Demon Monarch and the Emperor Hong Immortal Monarch were evenly matched, and they fought for twelve years. This battle was later called the Battle of the Deer, and the winner would rule the world. The subordinates of the Dawn Yang Demon Lord are superior in combat power, but because of the exercises they practice, they are mainly to liberate their hearts and do whatever they want. Such indulgence will inevitably lead to accidents that will result in the death of innocent people. And the cultivation method advocated by Emperor Hong Xianjun is to purify the heart and have few desires, restrain one's desires, and seek Taoism and cultivation. The comparison between the two, for the people, which is better or worse, can still be easily seen.
With the help of the people, plus the betrayal of the Iron Eater Beast, the mount of the Dawn Sun Demon Lord. In the end, the Liyang Demon Monarch was defeated like a mountain, but he still lost to the Emperor Hong Immortal Monarch, and he was defeated and killed at the foot of Wuyang Mountain. His subordinates were also torn apart, with numerous casualties, and fled to the bitter cold.
After the Emperor Hong Immortal Monarch defeated the Liyang Demon Monarch, he accepted some of his subordinates who did not do evil, and then officially rectified the monk's cultivation methods. Most of the magic weapons created by the Liyang Demon Lord that hurt the heavens and harmony were sealed and destroyed. Since then, the orthodox cultivation method of the Liyang Demon Monarch has been lost to the world. And Emperor Hong Immortal Jun also took this opportunity to depose the cultivation techniques of other sideways, and the whole world had to practice with the exercises he taught. However, time has passed, and now based on the exercises of Emperor Hong Xianjun, thousands of cultivation systems have been created. The most famous is still the hundred schools of thought in people's mouths. And most of those people in the Demon Dao were inherited from the exercises of the Liyang Demon Lord, who barely survived at that time.
"So, Elder, could you tell us more about how we can live forever?" Ying Si was not very interested in these familiar legends, but what he was really interested in was the ethereal eternal life. Although, he has a so-called villain system, but the system has not given him an answer. Therefore, with the permission of the elders of the school, Ying Si brought up the doubts that had always existed in his heart.
"Eternal life?
"How is it possible? even the pioneer predecessor Emperor Hong Immortal Monarch who founded the monk died of his life, let alone us?"
"Alas, it is true that the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and eternal life is one of the goals pursued by all monks for generations! The hall elder sighed and said, "Our monks' cultivation is divided into ten levels, which are mustard seeds, subtlety, ningchen, meridian, night, jindan, and yuanshen.......... The monks of the mustard stage open up spiritual veins and condense spiritual power. During this period, the monk began to nourish his spiritual veins so that his spiritual veins could be generated and he could bear more spiritual power. When the monk reached the Ning Chen period, his cultivation had completely stepped on the right track, and his spiritual power was further refined, diffusing out of his body, condensing but not dispersing......... After reaching the Jindan stage, we can condense the "Huachi" in our body into the Jindan, and after surviving the nine disasters, we can become half-immortals. After the Jindan period, I don't know very well, it is said that our sect master has already reached the Jindan stage. However, for eternal life, although there have been monks who continue to pursue it, even Emperor Hongjun and Liyangjun, who pioneered the cultivation of the human race in history, have not achieved it. ”
"Really? In this world, does eternal life really not exist?" Ying Si was a little disappointed, he originally thought that by coming to this world, he could achieve the legendary immortality, the sun and the moon live together.
"No, no, no, eternal life is still possible, according to ancient records, when the heavens and the earth first opened, a "Creation Jade Plate" was born, as long as you get it, you can achieve true immortality. However, it was broken for some reason. At that time, the Emperor Hong Immortal Monarch and the Liyang Demon Monarch both obtained a fragment of the "Creation Jade Disk", and only then did they defeat the Demon Saint Emperor Jun of the Demon Clan. The elder of the academy paused and taught: "You should think about it, it's good to have dreams, but you still have to be down-to-earth, don't think about these things day by day." You can also be regarded as the senior brother of these disciples, and you must have the appearance of a senior brother. ”
Ying Si spread his hands helplessly and rolled his eyes, after all, immortality, something that cannot be achieved in the eyes of ordinary people will naturally be regarded as wishful thinking, and he doesn't expect others to understand him.
Mu Ai, who was sitting next to Ying Siliang, had long eyelashes, like the wings of a bird, slightly covering his Danfeng eyes. He was a little puzzled and said, "Senior brother, do you really believe that there is eternal life? Eternal life, is it really that good?"
Ying thought about it for a while, and said solemnly: "Of course I believe in eternal life, because this is what I have always pursued all my life! When the sun is setting, the demons and spirits have just risen. Moreover, whether it is wealth, fame, status, power, or beauty, they are not brought by life or death. Under the erosion of the years, everything worth chasing is just floating clouds. Only by living forever can we truly enjoy these things. ”
"Well, I believe that Senior Brother will definitely be able to practice the ideal of eternal life. Mu Ai smiled, his eyes curved into a pair of crescents.
The hall elder continued to talk, and the eighty-seven young men in front of him listened attentively, and began to touch the mysteries and wonders of the monks little by little.
The magic and strength of the monks, and the heroic resistance to the invasion of the demon clan, have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the teenagers. And the various legendary stories told by the elders of the school made them relish and breathtaking, and deeply touched a soft part of their hearts.
At this time, a young man raised his hand, and after receiving permission from the elder, he stood up and asked, "Elder, can you tell us the specific distinction between the cultivation realms?"
The elder of the academy, Master Qingcheng, nodded, and waved his hand to signal the young man to sit down: "There are a total of eleven realms for monks, and each major realm is divided into four small realms: beginner, intermediate, high, and peak, I believe you have already felt it." If we want to go further in our cultivation, we must constantly attack the "Hua Chi" that nourishes and stores spiritual power, so that it can produce a higher level of spiritual power. ”
"If you follow the exercises and work hard wholeheartedly, your cultivation will naturally improve, you will be promoted to Ning Chen, and there is great hope for the meridian. Of course, I would prefer that some of you would even reach the level of Night, which has been several years and no one has stepped in. Also, the higher the qualification, the easier it will be to cultivate and be promoted. ”
"Our "Huachi" size is the same, its qualifications are divided into A, B, C, D, and other qualifications, the stored aura is only two or three percent, the qualification of C, the aura that can be stored is four or five percent, the second class qualification, the aura that can be stored is six or seven percent, the first-class qualification, the aura that can be stored can even be as high as eight or nine. There is another kind of qualification, which only exists in legends, the Heavenly Jealousy Body, and the stored aura can reach the level of ten percent, which can be described as terrifying! You have already opened the "Hua Chi" and have been cultivating for a long time, so you should be deeply touched by this, right? However, the low qualifications are not hopeless, please don't be discouraged, even if the qualifications are low, you can use some special heavenly and earthly treasures to forcibly change your life against the sky. ”
"So, Elder, can you give us a few specific examples? A disciple with a third-class qualification couldn't wait to ask.
The elder of the academy stroked his gray beard and said with a smile: "For example, the rebirthing grass, the replacement of bone roots, the golden fruit, and the washing of the heart and the face of the flower........ All in all, there are a lot of them, but they are all born in dangerous places, and they are accompanied by vicious insects and beasts, which are not easy to find. However, you are still young, and you still have a lot of years, and you still have a lot of opportunities. ”
