When Lin Shi asked this question, Dugu Xuejian was obviously stunned, and seemed to be a little surprised and puzzled, because she had never thought about such a question. [To see the latest chapter of this book, please go to Sugar Hua.]
Dugu Old Ancestor 'revealed' a bit of unexpected 'color', and Lin Shi would have this question that surprised him. However, he still patiently answered Lin Shi.
"Are all monks on the same path? There is no doubt about it, there are countless monks and different ways of practice, but they are all on the same path!"
Old Ancestor said, glanced at Lin Shi and Dugu Xue Sword, and asked, "Although you have not reached the last stage of the Law Manifestation Realm, you are not far behind, can you know what the major stages of the Law Manifestation Realm are?"
Dugu Xuejian replied respectfully: "Back to the ancestor, after the mortal casts his appearance, he steps into the path of cultivation and becomes a monk. The first thing to enter is the Manifestation Realm, which has four periods: the beginning, the middle, the upper, and the final, and the gap between the cultivation of each stage is obvious, which can be regarded as a small step. With the continuous improvement of the monk's cultivation and gradually ascending the various steps, Xue Jian believes that this should be the ascent of the steps. ”
Old Ancestor nodded, "Throughout the ages, there have been countless monks, among whom there are many generals, and there is no shortage of geniuses. Different monks practiced different spiritual arts, different magic weapons, and even more different cultivations, but they all followed this path. ”
"There have been many gifted monks in history, but they all ascended according to the four stages of primary, middle, upper and final, and finally reached the top, and there was no second way to go. ”
Lin Shi was silent, his cultivation time was still short, most of them were alone outside the practice, and he didn't know much about these cultivations. It's the first time I've heard someone explain it so thoroughly and clearly.
He also felt that what the ancestor said was very reasonable, and the path that the monks had traveled remained unchanged through the ages, and naturally they all climbed the same ladder. This is similar to the "ladder of climbing the spirit" of the Qingling Sect, down to the top, step by step, step by step, there is no reason to escape or cross the ladder.
But while agreeing, a question unconsciously arose in his heart: "Is it really as the ancestor of the Dugu family said, there will never be exceptions, there is no second way?"
His cultivation level was too low to answer, and this thought only flashed in his mind.
Old Ancestor turned to Dugu Xue Jian, looking at this talented junior who took on the great responsibility of the clan at a young age, and sighed: "You two sisters and brothers are the most talented among the generations after me, one of them takes on the great responsibility alone, and the other embarks on the path of penance. Alas, there is not much time for old decay, and I hope that some of you can reach the end of the manifestation period before you can continue your clan!"
Dugu Xuejian's eyes dimmed, and immediately lit up again, flashing with an unwavering light. "Please rest assured that the Snow Sword will definitely break through as soon as possible and help you!"
Having said that, she knew very well in her heart that the so-called help to the ancestor was actually to take over his position and protect the Dugu clan after his longevity was over.
Although the Dugu family is one of the lineages in the 'gate' of the Heavenly Sword, it has gradually declined, and there is only one master of the final manifestation period left in the clan today. Compared with the three finalists in the original clan, it can be said that it is far less. Moreover, this only surviving ancestor does not have much to live for, and he can't support it for much time.
Dugu Xuejian glanced at Lin Shi as he spoke, revealing an inexplicable look. The sword form left by the Nine Swords Ancestor in his body was her last expectation, as long as she comprehended the supreme sword style, there was hope for reviving the Dugu lineage.
The old ancestor was greatly pleased, and said to Dugu Xue Sword with a slight smile: "Do you know what the realm is after the final manifestation period?"
Dugu Xue Jian was startled and shook his head, after the final manifestation period?
For her, who is still not far away from the final manifestation period, the realm after the final manifestation period is too far away. As for Lin Shi, he didn't know even more, he still had two of the four stages of initial manifestation, middle manifestation, upper manifestation, and final manifestation in the Dharma Manifestation Realm, let alone after the final manifestation period.
Old Ancestor didn't care, as if he had expected that the two of them didn't know. Explained: "Among the four stages of the Dharma Manifestation Realm, the final manifestation stage is the peak, and further up is the next great realm, which is called the Ascension Realm!"
"Ascension Realm?" Dugu Xue Jian and Lin Shi were startled, both of them heard this word for the first time, and they were full of strangeness.
"That's right, it is said that the endogenous space of a monk who has reached that realm can contain a huge amount of spiritual energy, and the spiritual consciousness can be separated from the body, and it has unimaginable power! Moreover, a Spiritual Ascension Realm monk has ten times the longevity of a Manifestation Realm monk!"
Speaking of this, Dugu Ancestor's eyes showed a bit of expectation, and he was full of yearning for the legendary ascension realm. He has a lifespan of hundreds of years as the final manifestation period, but now he is also at the end of his life, and if he can't break through, he will inevitably die of old age at the peak of the manifestation realm.
A great purpose for monks to embark on the path of cultivation and climb the stairs with great difficulty is to obtain a long life, a long lifespan, and it is best to live forever between heaven and earth!
Immortality is the goal of every cultivator, and for this goal, countless people throughout the ages have been fascinated by it!
Especially for people like Dugu Old Ancestor, who have a very high cultivation level and whose longevity is about to end, they are even more aware of the pain of their lives being gone!
The ancestor's expression was slightly uneasy, and the two people below didn't dare to speak out, for fear of angering him. However, the Ancestor quickly sighed and said, "That's it, born on Spirit Island, you will definitely be trapped in the Manifestation Law Realm, and it will be difficult to break through, this is the will of heaven. The eternal will not change, and no one can change it!"
When Lin Shi heard this, he heard someone mention again that Lingdao had some kind of mysterious power that could suppress the monks, making it difficult for them to break through the final manifestation period.
He pondered that when he first received the inheritance of the Venerable Spirit, the remnant of the Venerable Venerable Spirit's legacy had said to himself that Spirit Island was a cursed land. At the time, he was completely unaware of such secrets and did not care. At this point, I completely recalled.
Later, the mysterious old man he met at the foot of the Heavenly Absolute Mountain Range learned from his conversation that there was some kind of forbidden power in the Spirit Island, and any monk who came to this island would be affected. Cultivation is imprisoned, so it is difficult for monks to survive on the island beyond the final manifestation period.
Just now, the more mysterious and powerful Lu Banxian he met had also called Spirit Island a forbidden island. It's just that when he asked, the other party didn't say much, only said that he would understand when he reached that realm. It seems that Lu Banxian is also very aware of the secrets of Lingdao.
Could it be that Lingdao was really cursed, so it had some kind of irresistible power that imprisoned all the monks on the island in the Manifestation Realm, thus becoming a forbidden island? Lin Shi was shocked and amazed, which was beyond his comprehension.
Just as Lin Shi was surprised, Dugu Xue Jian had already spoken to the Ancestor: "Could it be that throughout the ages, there have been countless monks born on Spirit Island, and there are some geniuses among them, but none of them can transcend the final manifestation period and enter the next great realm?"
The ancestor was silent for a long time, as if he was thinking, and finally said in a very calm voice: "No, not one." ”
