Chapter Eighty-Two: The Ceiling
Just after Gongshu explained the Four Imperial Divine Seals, the martial arts master Tang Luo sentenced this exercise to death and defined it as an evil way.
The so-called evil path is the road that cannot reach the end, and it has nothing to do with whether it is difficult or not, because all roads will be narrow when they go to the back, but the problem with the evil path is that when it goes to the back, there is no way.
The spirit does not control the heart, the qi is not cultivated, and the soul is not cultivated, to put it bluntly, it is not the cultivation of nature or life, relying on spiritual power and respecting combat power.
In ancient times, there were not a few people who had such an idea, this is not the patent of the Four Imperial Seals, the first to put forward this idea, is a certain school in ancient times - Heavenly and Human Sect, they feel that the body will eventually decay, and the soul will also wither, only the unity of heaven and man, can live with heaven and earth.
And then, the Celestial and Human School, which bewitched a large group of fellow practitioners of the ancient human race, finally disappeared into the long river of history.
The doctrine of this school is certainly attractive, but it is as empty as others saying that if you become a god, you can be immortal, it only has a goal, but there is no method, and naturally there is no possibility of reaching it.
Later, the ancient Zen Buddhism put forward a new idea, the body is just a stinky skin, the soul is the eternal boat, want to land on the other side, only a strong soul, so that the soul can be perfect, can be immortal.
This sounds much more reliable than the unity of heaven and man, and ancient Zen Buddhism relied on this statement to gather a large number of believers.
And then? In that dark age when the bodhisattva's visualization was difficult, Zen Buddhism was hammered out by the ancient body cultivators, and there was often a situation where a wandering body cultivator crossed the border and beat the arhats.
This made the ancient Zen cultivators despair in their hearts, after all, they had not seen it on the other side, and how to withstand the fists of the martial artists of the same realm had become the most important problem to be solved.
Genres like this that only have ideas, but take time to validate ideas, antiquity abounds.
Some of them found that the idea did not work and gave up, while others found that the idea was feasible and passed it on, but more of them were constantly revised and adjusted, and became the current martial arts.
For example, in Zen Buddhism, this group of bald donkeys has not given up the saying that the flesh is a stinky skin, and the soul is the eternal boat, but if you take a closer look, among all the schools in the world, there is no one who is more diligent in forging the body than this group of bald donkeys.
The current explanation of Zen Buddhism is that although the soul is eternal, the soul is ignorant before landing on the other side, so it must be escorted by a golden body, and this golden body is the physical body, which needs to be cultivated to the point that the vajra is not corrupt and the ten thousand laws are not invaded, so that it can be considered qualified.
Therefore, martial arts did not suddenly become what it is today, but after I don't know how many times a hundred schools of thought contended, it finally became the appearance of the current double cultivation of life.
But the current martial arts are not perfect, they are still constantly changing and adjusting, and these subtle evolutions will one day accumulate into qualitative changes and bring great changes to the martial arts again, so Tang Luo thinks that the martial arts of dual cultivation of life and life are the right way.
As for these four imperial seals, because of the relationship between the ceiling, they are out-and-out evil ways.
The fundamental reason why Tang Luo didn't look down on this cultivation method, in addition to not cultivating his life and not cultivating his nature, was because the people who practiced this set of exercises were too short-lived.
What determines the length of a warrior's lifespan is the strength of the physical body and the strength of the divine soul.
To put it simply, it takes about forty-five years for the most ordinary martial artist to cultivate from scratch to the fierce realm, and forty-five years is calculated according to three hours a day, which is a full forty-nine thousand two hundred and seventy-five hours, and the difference in physique is more than several times.
Even if the physical strength is poor, they don't cultivate the soul yet, not to mention that the two major elements of short life are all accounted for, and what is even more fatal is their spiritual power.
The more top-level spiritual power is, the more it requires a strong physique to withstand it, because the meridians are not independent of the body.
To put it simply, the more diligent the Four Imperial Spirit Clans are, the faster they will die, and the higher their cultivation, the sooner they will die.
From Gong Shu's explanation alone, Tang Luo had already seen through the ceiling of the Four Imperial Divine Seals, and after understanding the ceiling, this Four Imperial Divine Realm was no longer worth mentioning in his eyes.
The Four Imperial Spirit Realms will not have a soul master who is more than one hundred and twenty years old, so they will not have a spirit master at the level of the King Realm, and the palm spirit envoy with more than 100,000 spiritual power will rise to the sky.
The Four Imperial Spirit Clans will not have a spiritual skill bonus, and their lethality is extremely limited, which is why such a high-level spiritual skill as the Xuanming Cold Tree can't hurt him.
Because of the relationship between the imperial spirit and the heart, there will be no martial arts master in the four imperial spirit realms, and there will be top powerhouses who comprehend the true meaning of martial arts.
The above is the ceiling of the combat power of the Xihe remnants who have been in exile for a thousand years, and it is really a distress for no reason.
There is no great grandmaster-level powerhouse, the physical body is extremely weak, and he has top-level spiritual power, but the killing and injury are average, Tang Luo feels that he and the four imperial spirit clans can be regarded as bullying them.
Although abusing vegetables is the foundation of happiness, the degree of the four imperial spirit clan dishes has broken through Tang Luo's bottom line, he doesn't want to have any more conflicts with this group of natives, so let's get some divine jade and find out the hidden spiritual gate to end the trial.
This is equivalent to traveling back to ancient times with the world's top martial arts achievements, and facing the natives who seem to be in the same realm but are actually far inferior in combat power, and give birth to an incomparably detached mentality and compassion.
Retracting the hand that was covering Gong Shu's eyes, and finally looking at the young guard who was sealed in the ice, Tang Luo rose up and flew towards Youlan Valley, he had already decided to go directly into the Void Storm to search for divine jade, adding a little difficulty to this small trial, otherwise this second level would be too simple.
Although even if he breaks into the Void Storm, it is not dangerous for him, because this thing, if you meet it in the Void, it will be a little troublesome, but it has already arrived in the small world, and it is really a trick to look at it.
The only thing that is a little tricky is the light of annihilation, which represents the withering of all things, the endless emptiness, and the destruction of death, but looking at the scale of the void storm, the power of annihilation is not much stronger.
Tang Luo, who had already flown over the Youlan Valley, looked at the whirlwind of death that had annihilated most of the valley, touched his chin, thought about his immortal battle body, and thought about his own innate qi, as well as the innate yin and yang grinding disc and the yin and yang two yi void wheel, and plunged headlong into the void storm.
On the other side, Gongwang and Gongyang fled back to Hanshui Village on the bank of the Hanshui River in a desperate manner, and broke into the residence of the Spirit King Gongquan, where they would encounter the loss of the arms of outsiders and the Void Storm in Youlan Valley at the altar.
When he heard the message that Gongshu was seeing the Void Storm and resolutely sacrificed the blood to freeze the strong enemy, the spirit king of Hanshui Village was extremely agitated in his heart, and said emotionally: "Captain Gongshu is really a great hero of Hanshui Village, after this incident, set up a monument for him, his parents, wife and children, I will raise him!"
