Chapter 497: Visiting Danwu
Xu Dong asked, "Whether it's your master or your grandfather, why do they want to break into the spiritual realm, is there any special 'temptation' and 'confusion' that attracts them?"
Xing Yu said, "As I said just now, they want to cross the spiritual realm and enter the outer continent, and what attracts them is not the spiritual realm, but the meteor continent that is only rumored and no one has ever seen. Dacheng has three steps, which is why it attracts so many people to jump to 'want' to try, and even gamble with their lives. ”
"Oh. Xu Dong followed Xing Yu's train of thought and suddenly found something missing in Xing Yu's words, "That'...... Senior Xing, didn't you just say that all the people who wanted to cross the spiritual realm and enter the outer continent had gone and never returned, and they couldn't even pick up a single bone to come back, even if this was the case, it could not be proved that these people had fallen, but they could only be said to be missing, maybe they really crossed the spiritual realm to the meteor continent, maybe they were cultivating over there. ”
Originally, there was not so much false 'sexual' reasoning in the cultivation world, if they all reasoned like this, so many fallen monks could be inferred that they had attained enlightenment and ascended, and the cultivation world was different from the mundane world, it was not necessary to live to see people, and to die to see corpses, and many things were directly identified.
For example, so many people broke into the spiritual realm, and no one came back, and there was no news, and they were basically recognized as falling, since so many masters died in the spiritual realm, no one dared to follow in their footsteps.
Xu Dong didn't expect Xing Yu to answer his question, but he didn't expect Xing Yu to really answer, "This matter can't be said so absolutely, it is rumored that there were once five people who broke through the spiritual domain and survived, but they only turned back as soon as they entered the spiritual realm and encountered danger." ”
"These five people...... Who are they. ”
Xing Yu said, "I also heard about it, as for whether it is true or not, there is no way to verify, do you know that there are five late stage cultivators of the Merge Realm in the Martial Continent, and it is rumored that these five people were invited to break into the Spirit Domain together, and they are the ones who survived by breaking into the Spirit Domain." ”
Five late-stage monks of the Merge Realm, as soon as Xu Dong was spinning in his mind, he remembered the Danwu Zhenren he met in Mang'dang' Mountain, and heard the Holy Infant say that he was one of the five late-stage monks of the Merge Realm.
Xu Dong came to visit Xing Yu, just to learn about the Meteor Continent from him, and now that he has learned about it, it is estimated that he will not be able to ask much useful things, so he got up and said goodbye to Xing Yu.
Xing Yu said, "Didn't you come to see Xiaohu, he went to the mountains alone to practice, this kid cultivates hard, and is not as playful as other babies." ”
Xu Dong said, "Then let you bother to advise, I just returned to the island, and I haven't even cleaned up the copywriting in the court, so I'll go back to the court first, and I'll come to see Xiaohu another day." ”
He walked back to the court, the two guards had already cleaned up his and Xiao Sanqi's house, and even the practice room next to him that he used for retreat and cultivation was also cleaned up, he didn't take care of Xiao Sanqi at first, but quietly entered the practice room, today I don't know why, his mood has always been very 'chaotic', and he wants to think quietly for a while.
Xu Dong recalled the situation of visiting Xing Yu just now, in fact, his visit to Xing Yu was purposeful, nothing more than to ask for evidence of a few questions that he was more suspicious of, first, whether the Meteor Continent exists or not, second, what is the spiritual realm where almost no one survives when he enters, and third, why do people want to break into the spiritual realm, through visiting Xing Yu, he has a general understanding of these questions.
It seems that after a cultivator has practiced to a certain level, he has to put the matter of breaking into the spiritual realm in his mind and consider it, and going to the outer continent to explore the cultivation resources for his own use is like opening up an artifact is an indispensable procedure, but this breaking into the spiritual domain is too risky.
"Lotus 'Flower' and 'Cave' Immortal Records" divides the practice process of the Neidan school into nine realms of mortal womb, foundation building, knotting, yuanying, distraction, out-of-body, combination, Dacheng, and tribulation, and is divided into three stages according to the stage: upper, middle, and lower.
Xu Dong also understood that cultivating on the Martial Continent, even if you were an amazing cultivation genius, it would be a great luck to be able to cultivate to the Distraction Realm with the existing resources on the continent, in fact, cultivating to the Separation Realm could only be regarded as having completed the next stage of cultivation, and even the 'gate' threshold of the middle stage had not entered, if the entire cultivation was calculated by one hundred points, the Great Perfection Cultivator of the Distraction Realm could only be counted as forty points at most.
How to get the next sixty points is probably a serious test that every Distraction Realm monk faces, and cultivation is like this, most of the simple and easy-to-solve problems you can do are done, and the ones left behind are all difficult questions, and it is difficult for you to solve all of these difficult problems, let alone solve them all.
Cultivation is a bumpy road, just like thousands of students rushing to take the exam, due to the difference in their innate qualifications, plus the difference in the efforts made the day after tomorrow, and there are some elements of luck in it, some people may be young and ambitious, and they have achieved fame in their teens and twenties, some people may be able to be lifted at the age of 60, and the difference is that most of the people in the cultivation world are 60 years old.
If you are a monk who can only build a foundation after practicing for hundreds of years, your patience has been greatly tested, and your sharpness has long been dulled in this hundred years, at this time, you want to live a little longer, and the courage to cultivate down is gradually gone, if your innate qualifications, acquired efforts and good luck have completed the entire next stage in more than a hundred years, you must be full of ambition and unabated, thinking that you still have the capital to gamble on a game, so you try every means to sprint to the middle stage.
Like Xu Dong, he cultivated to the Yuanying Realm in his thirties, this kind of thing is rare for thousands of years, it is definitely an unexpected accident, the thundercloud spiritual root is a rare thing, the flame storm only comes once in thousands of years, the Heavenly Wolf Tribulation is the most dazzling star among the cultivators of the Ganges River Sand, and the cultivators with this spiritual root are a hundred times faster than the cultivation speed of ordinary people.
Therefore, Xu Dong can become the 'hole' master of the lotus 'flower' and 'cave', the island master of Wuliang Island, can meet soul cultivators like the Imperial Sword Master and Uncle Long as masters, can he see the Holy Child appear to guide him, can he have mythical-level treasures such as Taishi Ding, Qiankun Yin and Hong Huangjian, and can gather around him like a whirlpool, such as Xing Yu, Mei Huai Sanzi and other cultivation lovers.
Of course, there are also those 'women' with different special constitutions, who are attracted to this great vortex and have dedicated their lives to him.
............
"Don't think about it so much, you just want to enter that secret realm for yourself to see, just take a look, what's worth tangling with. The Holy Child spoke in the original form of ambergris, interrupting Xu Dong's contemplation.
Xu Dong said, "Master, you also think that this matter has a feasible 'nature'. ”
The Holy Infant said, "I can't say for sure if there is a feasible 'sex' or not, it's best for you to visit Danwu Zhenren, because he has personally walked through that secret realm, even if he turns back when he encounters danger, he knows what kind of dangerous situation it is after all." ”
"Okay, Master, I'll go to Wudi Country tomorrow, and I'll talk about Danwu Zhenren for a while. ”
The Holy Child stopped talking, the practice room returned to silence, Xu Dong took out a short sword from the treasure bag, this short sword flashed green light from time to time, and a dense rune was faintly visible on the sword body, he put the short sword in his hand and touched it, remembering that he and Abu 'Hua' went to Mang'dang' Mountain to steal Mang' 'Dang' crystals, met Danwu Zhenren and earned this magic sword.
Danwu Zhenren disguised himself as a 'medicine' picker, and arranged a bloody sword array at the foot of Mang'dang' Mountain, and several people tried to go up the mountain to steal Mang's 'Dang' crystals, but were divided into a corpse rain by the sword array, Danwu Zhenren asked Xu Dong and Abu 'Hua' to help him find the magic weapon that fell from the corpse rain.
Xu Dong and Ansula really found a few magic weapons, including the same magic sword as the sword in his hand, because the entire search process was under the gaze of Danwu Zhenren, the two had to 'hand in' all the things they found, Danwu Zhenren deliberately glanced at this magic sword twice, and a smug smile appeared on his face.
"Third junior brother, I want you to be the only one who was favored by the master back then, and when the master passed away, he passed on his beloved magic sword to you, but you didn't want to forge ahead, so you ended up today. ”
Xu Dong saw that Danwu Zhenren was talking to the magic sword, and he might have obtained the spoils of war like this many times before, so Danwu Zhenren was very at ease, he put these things into his storage bag in the same way, and then walked away without saying hello to Xu Dong.
"Xianggong, look what this thing is. "After Danwu Zhenren walked away without seeing anyone, Abu 'Hua' held a short sword in his hand and happily handed it to Xu Dong.
Xu Dong took the short sword in his hand, this short sword looked similar to the magic sword he 'handed over' to Danwu Zhenren just now, but it was evenly covered with dust, and its true face could not be seen from the appearance, he wiped off the dust on the surface of the short sword, and suddenly the short sword emitted a green light, and there was a dense layer of runes on the sword body, and there was no need to guess to know that this was a high-grade magic sword.
Xu Dong couldn't help but be surprised, this magic sword seemed to be more perfect than the one he 'handed over' to Danwu Zhenren, could it be that this was the sister sword of the Fan Bone Immortal Law Sword, or even one of the mother swords.
"Ah...... Abu 'Flower', where did you find this sword? ”
Abu 'Hua' smiled, "When I was helping that man clean up the battlefield before, I found this short sword in the grass, and I thought to myself that we can't work for him for free, we have to take a little benefit, so I hid this thing." ”
Xu Dong said, "You know how dangerous this is, if that old guy finds out that you are hiding something, he will have to kill you." ”
Abu 'Flower' said, "This dagger is covered in dirt, and I don't think he can find it, so I have the courage to look at this thing." ”
Xu Dong felt a little strange, "You mean, when you found it, it was like this." ”
He turned around in his mind, and concluded that this sword was the real magic sword, which was hidden by the owner of the sword, that is, the third junior brother of Danwu Zhenren, who had wrapped the real sword in a layer of soil in advance to disguise it, and the sword taken away by Danwu Zhenren was just a fake.
Xu Dong knew that the name of this magic sword was the Fan Bone Sword, which was the magic sword left by Danwu Zhenren's master Fan Bone Immortal before his death, and the Fan Bone Immortal used this magic sword to lay a dead end, in order to restrain his apprentice, he passed the sword to the third Guan 'Gate' disciple, and this disciple could not enter Mang'dang' Mountain, Danwu Zhenren because he did not have a Fan Bone Sword, although he was in charge of Mang'dang' Mountain, he could not obtain a large number of Mang' 'Dang' crystals.
