Chapter 3 The Old Man's Amazing Origins
Chen Liang realized that the old man was serious, so he sat quietly on the edge of the bed and listened to what the old man was going to say next.
The old man said, "At the beginning, I could also be regarded as a genius, two hundred years of cultivation to the Yuan Infant, five hundred years of cultivation to travel, and more than three thousand years of cultivation to the realm of enlightenment."
Chen Liang said in surprise, "Old man, you are more than three thousand years old!"
Chen Liang, who was beaten with chestnuts on Old Man Wang's head, shouted, "What do you call three thousand years old, your grandfather Wang I am still very young, okay, the years in the cultivation world are slow, and there are thousands of old monsters abounding, you will know in the future, it is because the years are slow and long, so you must not rush for quick success and quick profit in practice, and the cultivation of the mind and reason are the most important, so I have been exercising you since I was a child, accompanying your heart, alas, now I know how much your Grandpa Wang loves you" The old man said proudly.
Chen Liang muttered in a low voice: "Cut is to let me cook and serve you, love me a ghost." ”
The old man ignored him, and continued to say proudly, "When I practiced to the Tao, the city lord of Yuntian City personally found me and asked me to serve as the protector of the Dharma, but I couldn't shirk it in any way, so I had to take office" In fact, the old man Wang personally came to the door to be the protector of the Dharma.
"Do you know the weight of the Dharma Protector of Cloud Sky City? This is the position that many people dream of! Cloud Sky Domain is so huge, Cloud Sky City is the main city of Cloud Sky Domain, so big that you may not be able to walk from the West City Gate to the East City Gate for a few years now, I was really capable of moving mountains and seas at that time. ”
Looking at Chen Liang's widening eyes, Old Man Wang continued, "I am not only the Dharma Protector of Cloud Sky City, but also the elder of the Cloud Spirit Sect, by the way, you still don't know what a Dharma Protector is, Elder." The highest position in the city, the highest cultivation is the city lord, followed by the elder, then the protector, then the spirit official, the heavenly official, the local official, and finally the regional county commander, the district head, and in some places the small city position may also be less. The sect is different, the highest is the Taishang Elder, and then the elder, the Dharma protector, and the deacon. I won't talk about it later, it doesn't matter, you'll know later. As for the sect leader being the great elder of the sect, the elders chose someone who could do things and had the ability. Of course, the cultivation will not be too low. Generally, the people of the sect will serve in the city, and the people in the city have sects, scattered cultivators, and clans. Now you know how good I am."
Chen Liang looked at the proud old man and said, "You are so powerful, why have I never seen you, and you are still in this small village?"
The old man suddenly said with a serious expression, "This has to start from fifteen years ago, when an Elder Liu of Cloud Sky City discovered an immortal cave on an overseas island, because he was unable to enter the cave alone, so he summoned dozens of powerful protectors to explore the cave mansion together. Because I was proficient in formations, he invited me to come with me. When approaching the island, you can't see anything unusual, but after entering the island, you can feel the aura like a fairy family, and there are a lot of elixirs growing on the ground, although these elixirs are not of much use to those of us who came, but it is also very surprising that so many elixirs appeared before entering the cave. When we arrived at the cave, we were even more surprised by the concentration of aura there, it was simply a pleasure, and after we worked together to open the cave, we found that there was a mustard seed space inside, which was actually very large. When we entered, we searched for each of us as we had already said, and what we got was our own. Because I am proficient in formations, someone invited me to explore together, but I didn't agree, so I explored it myself. I have gained a lot in the Xianjia Cave Mansion, but the most precious thing is what I got from a magic circle that I accidentally opened, that is, the secret book "Channeling Technique" that you have been learning. ”
Chen Liang was surprised again and said, "The guidance technique I practiced is so powerful!"
The old man nodded, "Of course it's amazing, this is a secret book of the Immortal Family, and even I don't fully understand the mystery." But what I'm teaching you is just the skin, just the breathing method at the beginning and some body forging movements. Later, you will be able to appreciate its power when you learn the latter parts. Okay, let's continue with this exploration, although I said it easily, in fact, after this exploration, our group also died nine and seriously injured a dozen, and I was lucky enough to suffer only a little minor injury. The cave house seemed to be set by the owner, and after we came out, the aura dissipated and became ordinary. We were also very rule-abiding, and no one said what we gained. Then they went their separate ways. When I came back, I started practicing this book. It also gave me a great surprise, in just four or five years, it has greatly improved my mana and combat power. ”
The old man paused for a moment, as if recalling something angry, and then continued, "It is because of this book that I ended up where I am now. Ten years ago, I went to the Jade Continent to pick an elixir because I needed an elixir. Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived at the place where I heard that there was that kind of elixir, I was surrounded by the five elder protectors of Cloud Sky City. ”
The old man said that at this time, the green tendons that were already angry came out, "Then one of the elders is the elder who went to explore the Xianjia Cave Mansion last time, four of them are his friends, and now I still remember his name Han Tae, after they surrounded me, they clearly asked for the secret book I got at the beginning, Han Tai said that he learned on a wall in the cave mansion that it was left by an immortal who ascended millions of years ago, and the most precious of them is the book I got, but he doesn't know that this book is called "Channeling Technique" , which roughly explains how powerful this book is, and the location of this book. But I took him by the time he went. He didn't know who took it when he came out. After four or five years, he observed everyone in secret and found that my progress was not as fast as usual. Thus locked me, wanting to get the cheats from me, to try to break through his cultivation that has not moved for hundreds of years. One of them is in the realm of immortal formation, and four are in the realm of enlightenment. Even though I learned channeling, I still couldn't beat them. In the end, my magic weapon was exhausted, my mana was exhausted, and I was about to be captured by them, so I used a secret technique on the channeling technique, and self-exploded cultivation, plus a few high-grade immortal teleportation talismans, and finally escaped. However, the talisman was indefinite, because I was afraid of being chased until I used up all the talismans in one go. Finally exhausted and fell into a river, and then was washed into this small village. ”
Chen Liang was thrilled to hear what the old man said, and he was also nervous and excited with the old man's words. I was relieved to hear that the old man had finally escaped. said indignantly, "Old man, don't be sad, wait for me to achieve cultivation in the future, and help you avenge it." Send that Han Wang to you. ”
The old man smiled and rubbed Chen Liang's head and said, "You are still young, you don't have to think about this, and thanks to you and me, I have the courage to survive, everything I did was ruined at the beginning, almost everything was destroyed with my cultivation, leaving only a copy of "Guiding Technique", I haven't cultivated yet, I can't practice, I live a muddy life all day long, I want to die, but I finally escaped, and I was unwilling to die." When I saw your childish smiling face, I escaped from those days. After all these years, I am relieved, everyone has their own lives, since this is the case, why not live happily. Now that you're about to step into the cultivation realm, it's time for you to give you the channeling technique I got at the beginning. I didn't carry it forward at the beginning, and it's up to you to inherit this task in the future. ”
Chen Liang swore solemnly, "It will be." ”
The old man walked to a small cupboard in the room and took out a cloth bag from it. Then he said, "The channeling technique is in this cloth bag, this is a Qiankun bag, but the space inside is not very large, only one foot long, one foot wide, one foot high space, it was originally for this book, don't look at the space, the defense is really good, I didn't have the slightest power to destroy it for self-explosion." Now, in addition to a book, there is also a protector of my city, and an elder decree of the sect, both of which are useless now. I can't open it now, but when you practice and have aura, you can open it. ”
The old man casually threw the cloth bag to him, and told Chen Liang a spell that could remove the ban that the old man had set on the bag. Chen Liang firmly remembered this spell in his heart.
The old man saw that Chen Liang remembered this spell, and said, "I have practiced for so many years, although there are a lot of exercises and cheats, but I can't write them without cultivation now, even if I say it, it will be very different from the original, and it may not be a good thing for you to practice, but it is enough to have this guide technique." There are also formations and elixirs that I have taught you over the years, which you must not forget, and they will be of great use to your future cultivation. ”
As he spoke, the old man took out another twenty or thirty books from the drawer and gave them to Chen Liang, telling him that these were the books he had written over the years for Chen Liang about formation elixirs and various things.
In the past three days, the old man told Chen Liang some more things about the cultivation world. Chen Liang learned that this world was divided into five domains, namely the Cloud Heaven Domain, the Spirit Domain, the Holy Domain, the Firmament Domain, and the Haoxuan Domain. Each domain has five continents, and beyond the domain and the continent is an endless sea. No one has been able to figure out what is out there.
The Yuntian Domain has the Yuntian Continent, the Mingcheng Continent, the Jade Continent, the Wuhai Continent, and the Huiao Continent. Among them, the Yuntian Continent is dominant, which is ten times the size of the other continents. They were located in the Mingcheng Continent of the Cloud Sky Domain. However, it is also a very remote area on the Mingcheng continent.
The old man also told Chen Liang that in fact, among the five domains, only the Yuntian Domain was ruled by the human race. Among the four domains, the spiritual domain is ruled by the spirit clan, the holy domain is ruled by the Rakshasa clan, the firmament domain is ruled by the Phoenix clan, and the Haoxuan domain is ruled by the dragon clan. Although each domain is a kind of racial rule, in fact, there are various races in each domain, and many races will turn into human forms when they reach Jindan, but they are also called spirit forms, or Rakshasa shapes, after all, the forms are almost the same.
Because we are human, we all call it humanoid. Because this form is most in line with the Tao and is most conducive to cultivation, it is generally transformed into this state of cultivation.
In addition to the human race, the spirit race, and the Rakshasa race are born with high intelligence, and generally other races will only open their spiritual intelligence when they build a foundation, and they will transform when they reach Jindan. But their longevity and strength are much longer than ours, so this can be regarded as a kind of compensation.
However, there are also many races that will not be too high and powerful in their lives, and there are also many who will not transform into human forms to cultivate, but they will also be particularly powerful.
