Chapter 3: The Inheritance of the Beast God
When the old man mentioned the golden carp, his eyes were full of pride. The golden carp is its descendant, and there has been no precedent for the carp to jump over the dragon gate for 10,000 years, and now, this legend is reproduced in its descendants, how can it not be proud.
There are strict requirements for the carp to jump over the dragon gate, it must be an ordinary carp jumping over the dragon gate to change into a dragon clan, otherwise, a high-level carp clan like the old man can fly directly onto the dragon gate, and it is effortless at all.
The old man's favorite is this golden carp, and he originally planned to pass on the position of the patriarch of the carp clan to it. But the golden carp refused to work all his life and insisted on trying to fly over the dragon gate. The golden carp was already a level 1 demon beast at birth, and even if he jumped on the dragon gate, he couldn't turn into a dragon. However, when the Golden Carp reaches level 9, if you abolish all of your own cultivation, you can get the opportunity to jump the Dragon Gate and turn into a dragon.
The demon beasts in the human world are divided into ten levels, and the ninth-level demon beasts can transform into human forms and have a lifespan of tens of thousands of years. And if the golden carp fails to jump the dragon gate after self-cultivation, it will die within a year. You must know that jumping the dragon gate has never been successful for 10,000 years, and it does require incomparable perseverance and determination to abandon the cultivation to try to jump the dragon gate.
The old man was originally resolutely opposed to the golden carp's determination to abandon his cultivation and try to jump the dragon gate. But at the insistence of the golden carp, the old man was helpless.
But the golden carp really successfully crossed the dragon gate, and really caused the thunder, so that the golden carp successfully completed the process of turning into a dragon, which made the old man not ecstatic. You must know that the dragon clan is the king of all beasts, and the future development prospects are far from being comparable to the carp clan. However, although the golden carp successfully transformed into a dragon, it could only maintain its serpentine form until it reached the ninth level.
The golden snake bit Long Xiaoyao's middle finger just now, not to hurt him, but a kind of contract ritual between demon beasts and humans: blood contract. His blood is integrated into the blood of the Golden Snake, and the Golden Snake has a life and death contract relationship with him, and will spend his life with him.
The old man has actually been paying attention to the golden carp. He did not stop the blood contract behavior of the golden snake, one is that after the golden carp turns into a snake, it needs to cultivate on the land, grow up with a person, and can also help each other for the golden snake; the second is the stubborn surname of the golden carp, even if he wants to stop it, he can't; the third is that the king of the carp tribe never owes favors, and the dragon saved the golden carp, if he can't repay the favor, there will inevitably be a negative impact in the future, and he will not even be able to survive the heart tribulation.
Long Xiaoyao learned that the golden snake was actually a dragon and had established a contract with him, so he was naturally very excited. However, he was skeptical of the old man's explanation, and there were still many things he didn't understand, so he asked the old man to explain in detail the situation of the immortal cultivator and the demon beast.
In the human world, immortal cultivators are divided into five cultivation periods, namely: Qi cultivation period, foundation building period, Jindan period, Yuan infant period, and ascension period, each cultivation period is divided into 9 levels; And after the 9th level of the Ascension Period, the Immortal Cultivator can ascend to the Upper Realm and reach immortality. Long Xiaoyao's parents were only immortal cultivators in the foundation building period, and their longevity could reach 200 years old.
The demon beasts in this realm are divided into ten levels, the strength of the demon beasts of level 1 and 2 is equivalent to the qi training period of immortal cultivators, level 3 and 4 are equivalent to the foundation building period, level 5 and 6 are equivalent to the Jindan period, level 7 and 8 are equivalent to the Yuan Infant stage, and levels 9 and 10 are equivalent to the ascension period. But demon beasts are different from humans, limited by their innate ontology, only the so-called high-level demon beasts can fly to the upper realm, and most ordinary varieties have almost no possibility of ascending.
When the monster reaches level 9, it is also known as the transformation stage, and can change into a human form. The longevity of demon beasts is much longer than that of humans, and the old man has survived for nearly 10,000 years now. But it is also facing the approaching limit, but in the end, because the body is only a carp clan, it has not been able to break through further and reach the upper realm of ascension. And the little golden carp also gave up thousands of years of cultivation because of this, and turned into a dragon to become a top demon beast: a divine beast.
The old man patiently told Long Xiaoyao about the basic knowledge of the immortal cultivation world, which made him even more yearning for immortal cultivation. The old man talked about some common sense in the immortal cultivation world, and then said with a smile: "Little friend, since you have saved my offspring, and you have signed a contract with the only one of my carp clan in the past ten thousand years who has successfully transformed into a dragon, you can put forward any wishes, and I can fulfill them for you." ”
Long Xiaoyao blurted out: "Grandpa, I want to become an immortal cultivator." ”
However, Long Xiaoyao thought of his spiritual root qualifications, lowered his head and said in a low voice: "But my spiritual root is the worst miscellaneous spiritual root, isn't it difficult to cultivate?"
The reason why the old man explained so carefully just now was, of course, that he hoped that Long Xiaoyao would choose the path of cultivating immortals. The Golden Snake has completed the blood contract ceremony with him, and if his strength is low, or even his longevity is exhausted and he dies, it will have a great negative impact on the Golden Snake, and may even endanger the Golden Snake's surname.
The old man smiled and said, "Little friend, with your Miscellaneous Spirit Root qualifications, if you cultivate any kind of exercise in the current human immortal cultivation realm, the hope of success in cultivating immortals is indeed very slim. However, I know a set of exercises that are just right for you to cultivate. It was a practice practiced by the beast god ten thousand years ago, and it required that the cultivator must contain all the five elements spiritual roots. The beast god is now an immortal in charge of the beast clan of the world, and when he ascended to the upper realm, he left his exercises in the underwater cave. If you can inherit the inheritance of the beast god, it will naturally be no problem to become an immortal. ”
Hearing this, Long Xiaoyao raised his head and looked at the old man, he couldn't believe his ears, and asked eagerly, "Old man, is it really? Can I really become an immortal cultivator?"
The old man smiled and said, "Of course you can, is there anything more difficult than the Dragon Gate? Originally, I always thought that it was impossible to succeed in the Dragon Gate, but now it is not true? Originally, I had no right to give you the secret book of the Beast God." But on a stone tablet in the Beast God Cave Mansion, it is engraved: The fish turns into a dragon, and the beast god comes out. If I'm not mistaken, you should be the chosen heir of the Beast God, so I plan to let you inherit the Beast God's inheritance, are you willing?"
Long Xiaoyao felt that everything was coming too fast, which made him unbelievable at all, and couldn't help but secretly pinch his thigh with his right hand. As a result, the intense pain convinced him that none of this was a dream, and immediately replied, "I do." ”
The old man smiled and watched Long Xiaoyao's every move, with its tenth-level demon beast cultivation, even if things within dozens of miles could not escape its detection, not to mention the small movements of Long Xiaoyao in front of him. Hearing Long Yao's answer, the old man suddenly said solemnly: "You have to think about it, although the Beast God's exercises are powerful, they are difficult step by step when cultivating, and they are almost as difficult as the difficulty of Leaping Dragon Gate." ”
