Chapter 20 A hundred schools of thought contend
"Here we are, here it is. Xin Lan pointed around: "This is the place where the junior disciples of Lingchou Valley cultivate. ”
Akisawa raised his head, and all he saw in front of him were towering icicles, and he didn't know how long these icicles were, as if they had grown out of a lake and inserted into the sky.
The surrounding area is a flat clearing, the ground is full of ice crystals, there is no trace of dirt at all, it seems that this place is made of ice that fell from the glacier, and in the middle of the clearing, there are some protruding ice spikes, the size of fingers.
Qiu Ze put his hand on his mouth, sighed, and asked, "Senior sister, what should I do?"
Xin Lan smiled and said: "Don't worry, let's not be busy cultivating, let's sit down first, I'll tell you about some of the secret books of our Qiyun Temple, as well as the level of cultivators." ”
The two sat on the ground, Xin Lan coughed lightly, and said solemnly: "There are countless cultivators in the world who practice magic and martial arts, and the strength of the secret texts is also different, but in the final analysis, what remains unchanged is that all cultivators have hierarchical boundaries......"
The difference between cultivators and ordinary people is that they have strong soul and physical powers, so the first step from ordinary people to cultivators is to transform their souls.
Between heaven and earth, there is a rich aura, everything in the world, mountains, rivers, stones, trees, etc., all have aura, and the cultivator learns the magic skill of absorbing the aura of heaven and earth through the practice of secret scriptures, and through hard thinking, absorbs the surrounding aura into his own body, and when the absorbed aura reaches the point of abundance, he can gather spirits.
Gathering the spirit is to gather the aura in the body of the cultivator, after several fusions, it is transformed into mana, once the spirit gathering is successful, the cultivator can be regarded as stepping into the road of cultivation in the true sense.
On the contrary, if the spirit gathering fails, the vitality will be greatly damaged, and most of the spiritual energy in the body will also dissipate, and if you want to regather the spirit, you need to spend more time gathering the spiritual energy.
After the success of the spirit gathering, the cultivator is called the cultivator, the meaning of the soul cultivation is to cultivate the soul, at this time, the cultivator has opened up the gap with ordinary people, and the life span will be longer, and in their dantian, there will be a star pool.
The star pool is in the shape of the Big Dipper, after the success of the spirit gathering, the first star will light up, at this time the cultivator is the first-level cultivator, but the brightness of the star determines the strength of the cultivator, the cultivator who lights up the first star is called the first-level low-level cultivator, if you practice diligently, after the star is brightened a lot, it is called a first-level intermediate cultivator, and when the star emits a bright light, it reaches the peak, and is called a first-level high-level cultivator.
Many cultivators can't step this hurdle in their lives, they may not be talented enough, or they may not work hard enough, they can only do a first-level high-level spiritual cultivation for the rest of their lives, if they take this step, the second star in the star pool will light up, and they will become second-level spiritual cultivators.
There are a total of seven stars in the star pool, and the highest level in the spiritual cultivation is the seventh level advanced spiritual cultivation.
The seven-star unity means to condense the seven stars into a complete one, which the cultivator calls the gathering of stars, and after the success of the gathering of stars, they will go through the tribulation, and once the tribulation is successful, they will be promoted to immortals!
At this time, the cultivators once again opened a gap with the spiritual cultivators, and in essence, they had broken away from the limitations of human beings.
The lifespan of immortals is extremely long, and it is normal to live for hundreds of years.
Immortals are divided into four levels, scattered immortals, spirit immortals, Zhu immortals, and feather immortals, among which, like cultivating spirits, they are also divided into three small levels: high, medium and low.
The cultivators who have just successfully crossed the tribulation are called scattered immortals, and they are the lowest and weakest existence among the immortals.
After a certain opportunity, it is possible to advance to a spirit immortal, and after the spirit immortal, it is Zhu Xian, many famous cultivators, when they come here, they will no longer have the opportunity to rise, and they can only stay in this position for the rest of their lives.
But if the talent of the cultivator is excellent, coupled with diligent cultivation, it is possible to be promoted to Zhu Xian, as long as the cultivation reaches Zhu Xian, it is a figure who is proud of one side, and generally to this point, you can start a sect and accept disciples to preach.
Above Zhu Xian, it is the feather fairy, the feather fairy is the meaning of the feather into the immortal, the immortal at this time, there is no life limit, because their soul is already very strong, strong enough to be able to leave the body, so the body is not important to them, even if the body is dead, you can also be reborn with the help of the soul, but if you want to cultivate to the feather immortal, it is not an easy task, unless there is a great opportunity, you have to accept the catastrophe, after the success of the tribulation, you can become an immortal, and the feather immortal ranks in the immortal class, the most important thing is that the feather immortal has the ability to fly, you can travel the sky without the help of mount magic weapons and mana consumption!
The Feather Immortal is the highest immortal level known to cultivators, and it only exists in legends, and further up, there is no historical record.
After saying so much in one breath, Xin Lan's mouth was a little dry, and he poured a few sips of tea before exhaling.
Qiu Ze said "oh", I didn't expect that there would be such a big gap between cultivators, and their ultimate goal was to become an immortal, thinking of this, Qiu Ze asked, "Senior sister, have you ever seen a feather immortal?"
Xin Lan shook his head and said: "No, not only I haven't seen it, even your master hasn't seen it, Yuxian only exists in legends, legend has it that thousands of years ago, there was a great immortal who successfully crossed the catastrophe and ascended after the feather, but the age is too old, no one knows if it's true, the current cultivator, as long as the stars are successful and become a scattered immortal, it is already a great thing, when my father was just promoted to a scattered immortal, he was appointed to become the valley master of Lingchou Valley, and the head of some small sects is only a seventh-level cultivator at most." ”
Qiu Ze became interested and said excitedly: "Senior sister, do you think I have a chance to become a scattered immortal?"
Xin Lan rolled his eyes: "You, I started cultivating at the age of eight, and now five years have passed, and it's just a small third-level spiritual cultivation, you haven't started to cultivate, you start to think about those who don't have it, junior brother, you can't be too ambitious to cultivate, you must be down-to-earth, my father was famous for his good talent, and he was brought back to the mountain by his ancestor, with his talent, he became a scattered immortal when he was almost a hundred years old, you think about it, how big the difficulties and trials are." ”
Akisawa smiled and changed the subject: "That...... Senior sister, how many cultivation sects are there in the Central Plains?"
Xin Lan took another sip of tea: "Don't worry, listen to me slowly......"
On the land of the Central Plains, the forces are complicated, the sects are numerous, a hundred schools of thought contend, among which the most powerful famous sects have a total of sixteen, collectively known as one view of two temples and thirteen sects, one view of two temples are: Qiyun Temple, Huangjue Temple and Guiyuan Temple, Qiyun Temple belongs to the Tao, the disciples in the view are dedicated to the pursuit of alchemy and cultivation, do not interact with the outside world, the strength is the strongest among all the sects, almost can be said to be the first school in the world.
The disciples of Huangjue Temple, all from the royal family, Huangjue Temple will select some people from the royal family who have the talent of cultivating truth to enter Huangjue Temple to cultivate the truth, and then protect the empire, which is an important sect to protect the empire.
Guiyuan Temple is to cross the people with Buddhism, these three forces are transcendent in the Central Plains, standing in the three directions of the mainland, in addition to the Huangjue Temple, the other two doors generally do not intervene in the world's disputes, especially Qiyun Temple.
The thirteen sects are thirteen sects, namely: Shengyan Sect, Poison Sect, Wanhua Sect, Divine Sect, Qingyuan Sect, Li Huan Sect, Hades Sect, Qi Yu Sect, Beast Sect, Wuchen Sect, Quanxi Sect, Taiyi Sect, and Qianhe Sect.
The thirteen sects of one view and two temples almost include the cultivators of the world, but the status of the thirteen sects is much lower than that of one view and two temples.
Qiu Ze nodded, puzzled: "In this way, the Thirteen Sects of One View and Two Temples should be very famous, but why have I never heard of it?"
Xin Lan explained: "Because cultivators are different from ordinary people, what they pursue is naturally not wealth and status, but strength! Therefore, cultivators generally do not swagger in front of ordinary people, and most of these sects are located in the enchantment, so naturally not many mortals know about it, even Huangjue Temple, the mortals who know this temple are only core members of the royal family." ”
"Could it be that the old man is from the Huangjue Temple?"
Qiu Ze thought of the old man in the palace, no wonder he was able to get the holy decree, presumably his rank was much higher than that of the current saint.
