The word "dream" is very strange. It may be true or false. Xu Chenglin's dream was both real and illusory. If it were him before, he would have thought it was just an illusion. But now he is a

As a practitioner, this dream is worthy of verification. Regardless of whether the dream is true or not, a large number of words in Xu Chenglin's mind do exist. He worked hard to sort out the words in his mind, some of which he could understand and some of which he couldn't.

The words were scanned by him one by one.

Looking at these words, Xu Chenglin was speechless for a while. If he read it correctly, these words were the common words that had appeared in the past. At first, the entire continent used one kind of writing, but with the emergence of the seven continents, the writing changed due to differences in regional culture.

Changes have taken place. Although the writing of each continent retains its original traces, it has formed its own system. The earliest universal writing was replaced by new writing from each continent because it was lost too much. In fact, the universal writing

It has not really disappeared. Some sects of cultivation still retain the inheritance of universal script. As the famous Jiuhua Academy in Beicang Continent, the inheritance of universal script has been completely preserved.

No matter what happens, Wen Dao Hall will ensure that you practice happily without worries. Although this is a joke from Jiuhua Academy, it also illustrates the comprehensive functions of Wen Dao Hall from the side. Xu Chenglin had no way of knowing the meaning of the words in his mind, so he had to go to Wen Dao again.

Xu Chenglin came to the Wen Dao Hall and asked the senior brother on duty about universal writing. The senior brother on duty just thought for a moment and pointed him to the storage area of ​​historical documents.

Xu Chenglin gained a lot from the vast sea of ​​books and jade slips. Some things he had never cared about or understood before surprised him this time. The first thing Xu Chenglin found was not the explanations and annotations of common texts, but a book

A thread-bound book called "Wind and Cloud Chronicles". After flipping through it casually a few times, he was attracted by the content. The content introduced in the book was the history of the spiritual world.

Before the world-ending disaster, all practices were called cultivation, and the practitioners all called themselves monks. But after the world-ending disaster, there were changes in the practice. The original cultivation system was replaced by the new practice system and ancient martial arts.

The two systems of body refining have replaced them. Although they still call themselves monks, they are completely different from the monks before the world-destroying disaster.

The cultivation system is very complex to explain. But in essence, it is also very simple. The process of a practitioner's cultivation is to absorb the spiritual energy from the outside into the body and transform it into one's own power. Depending on the type of exercises practiced

Different, this power can be spiritual power, demon power, etc. This is the essence of the cultivation system, everything is based on the abundance of spiritual energy.

In fact, no one knows whether the cultivation system can really live forever in the end. But it is absolutely true that every time the cultivation reaches a great realm, the life span of the monks will increase. I don’t know what happened during the disaster of world destruction, cultivation

The system was gradually replaced. As the continent collapsed and was divided into seven, the spiritual energy quickly depleted. The spiritual energy that was not left in ten could not support the development of the cultivation system. The cultivation system gradually disappeared in the torrent of time.

As the saying goes, if you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be successful. In the face of thin spiritual energy, the practitioners also made changes. After a long period of exploration, the practitioners came into being and a new practice system came into being. The new practice system divided four realms.

They are: forging body, condensing energy, leaping into the world, and refining the world.

The new practice system follows the stage of introducing Qi into the body of the Cultivation System. Different from the Cultivation System, the new practice system follows the steps of calcining the body after introducing Qi into the body. It directly guides the spiritual energy.

Transformed into spiritual power, it is used to strengthen the body and change the constitution. The completion of forging the body strengthens the body's adaptability to the external environment. It is easier to absorb the thin spiritual energy and complete the next breakthrough.

Condensing Qi is a process of accumulating spiritual energy, and it is also the stage in which a practitioner's own strength increases the fastest. After condensation is completed, the spiritual energy in the body evolves into stars, imitating the movement of the stars in the sky. It can accelerate the absorption of spiritual energy, or convert a small amount of the remaining energy into spiritual energy.

Power. And this process is the realm of transcending mortals. As the name implies, leaping beyond mortals is already transcending mortals. Once you reach the realm of leaping to mortals, you can fly into the sky and escape from the earth and overturn rivers and seas. The fourth realm, the realm of transcendence, is to perfect the stars in the body. When the stars in the body and

The stars in the nine heavens correspond to each other, and after reaching the resonance between heaven and man, the monk can break through the world and ascend.

Ancient martial arts training has almost completely overturned the practice system. This practice system has the least dependence on spiritual energy. Ancient martial arts training is a combination of spiritual energy absorption and secular ancient martial arts, plus the overbearing spiritual power transformation method. Practice is the first

The first step is also to introduce Qi into the body in an advanced manner. The end of introducing Qi into the body is to enter the body tempering stage. This stage is generally the same as the new practice system.

After the physical training, the ancient martial arts training focuses more on the development of oneself. Observing one's own shortcomings, using various forms of energy to make up for one's own shortcomings, this is the realm of internal observation. The way of heaven can make up for the shortcomings when there is more damage.

, there is no perfect existence. The third realm of ancient martial arts training is called Zhiwei, which is to observe oneself in detail. To know one's subtle deficiencies, forcibly plunder the corresponding energy to replenish oneself. The fourth realm, the realm of observing the sky, is for monks

The understanding of the nature of heaven and earth. In this realm, once monks can always be in a state of unity between heaven and man, they can break through the world and ascend.

Both cultivation systems aim to break through the world and ascend, but in these two systems, there have never been monks who broke through the world and ascended. In the ancient cultivation system, there were many monks who broke through the world and ascended. Since the cultivation system disappeared,

In other words, since the catastrophe of world destruction, no cultivator has been able to break through the world and ascend. The worldly realm of the new cultivation system and the heaven-observing realm of ancient martial arts training have never appeared in the world of cultivation. Have any monks reached this realm?

, it is still a mystery. Even the third realm of these two systems is extremely rare.

The practice system that can break through the world and ascend has disappeared, but the practice system that cannot break through the world and ascend has remained. This has to be strange. What is even more strange is that not only did later generations not abandon these two practice systems, they are still dealing with them.

They continued to add. With the additions of later generations, each large realm of the two systems was subdivided into nine small realms. Based on the comparison of strength, corresponding adjustments were made to each large realm.

There are divergent opinions on the mystery of the disappearance of the cultivation system. But there is no doubt that various versions of the explanation are inseparable from changes in the concentration of spiritual energy. The two systems have always existed to this day, which is also a phenomenon that is difficult to explain. But no matter what, the disappearance of the cultivation system has two

The coexistence of two cultivation systems is the current situation in the cultivation world.

Seeing this, Xu Chenglin was also curious about the mystery of the cultivation world. He did not delve into this issue too much, but instead had some guesses about the disappearance of the cultivation system.

"The disappearance of the cultivation system may not be entirely due to aura. The powerful spells in the dream failed one by one, which may also be related to this reason."

These were just his own guesses, and he did not think carefully. Xu Chenglin's attention at this time was attracted by another question.

"The new practice system and the ancient martial arts training system, these two practice systems

, which one does your cultivation belong to?"

As soon as the question arose, he had the answer himself. What he was practicing now, it was impossible to tell which system it belonged to. In other words, what Xu Chenglin was practicing now was the basis shared by both systems. After finishing the tempering period, the two practices

The system really makes a difference.

"Tall buildings have risen from the ground. Now I am still in the stage of laying the foundation. It seems that it is still a little early to consider the direction of future practice."

His mind just turned around, and Xu Chenglin continued to read. The next content of "Wind and Cloud Chronicles" was still related to practice. However, Xu Chenglin knew some of the content. However, after seeing the specific content, Xu Chenglin still

I couldn't help but secretly say that I was ignorant and ignorant.

The biggest difference between practitioners and ordinary people is the existence of spiritual roots. The basis of spiritual practice is the existence of spiritual roots. Only with spiritual roots in the body can one sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and introduce the spiritual energy into the body and transform it into spiritual power. If there is no spiritual root,

The existence of the spirit energy from the outside world, no matter how strong it is, is extremely difficult to inhale it into the body and transform it into spiritual energy.

Five-element spiritual roots, also known as pseudo-spiritual roots. This kind of spiritual root has all five elements of attributes, but the five-element attributes are mixed together. When converting spiritual power, the five attributes of spiritual power are mixed with each other, and the spiritual power attributes are highly random. Different practitioners

In different places, the converted spiritual power is different. This makes it difficult to use certain spells that require high-purity spiritual power to be catalyzed. The properties of spiritual roots are slightly better, which are the four-attribute and three-attribute miscellaneous spiritual roots. Compared with the Five Elements Spirit

Similar to the root, this kind of spiritual root also has the disadvantage of impure spiritual power.

But compared to the former, it is much smaller. When it comes to the level of dual-attribute spiritual roots, the situation is different. Although the dual-attribute spiritual roots are transformed spiritual power, it is still impure, but the corresponding exercises can indeed make up for the deficiency.

On top of the dual-attribute spiritual root, there is the mutually reinforcing spiritual root. In fact, this kind of spirit is still a dual-attribute spiritual root. The two attributes of this spiritual root complement each other, and the spiritual power is transformed very quickly.

Above the mutual spiritual root, there is the single-attribute spiritual root. The single-attribute spiritual root is also called the earth spiritual root. Although this kind of spiritual root only occupies one of the five elements, the conversion of spiritual power is extremely high. It is the mutual spiritual root.

The conversion efficiency of spiritual power is several times higher. There are often many changes in single-attribute spiritual roots. Among them, due to the influence of blood and external factors, variant spiritual roots of the five elements have appeared, such as thunder spiritual roots, wind spiritual roots,

Binglinggen etc.

In addition, there is also a kind of alien existence. This alien kind is the Hunyuan Spiritual Root, which is as famous as the Earth Spiritual Root. Although the Hunyuan Spiritual Root also has all five elements, the proportions of the five elements are roughly the same. The transformation of spiritual power into the five elements is basically the same. This kind of

The spiritual root is no worse than the earth spiritual root. Sometimes its magical effects are stronger than the earth spiritual root. Above the earth spiritual root is the heavenly spiritual root. This is a legendary existence and is not introduced in the book.

After reading Lingen's introduction, Xu Chenglin was already lost in memories.

"According to the situation that day, I should have spiritual roots of metal and earth elements, while several of my companions have single spiritual roots. The spiritual roots of several of them are better than mine. It seems that I am really as Xuan Ling said, and I will have to do it in the future.

Practice hard."

With this in mind, Xu Chenglin continued to flip through "Feng Yun Zhi". The content at the back of the book talked about some superficial knowledge about alchemy, making talismans and refining weapons. Xu Chenglin knew all this knowledge, and he just flipped through it roughly.

He put down the book. He has not forgotten the purpose of this trip. He is looking for explanations and annotations of universal characters. Without further delay, Xu Chenglin found the explanations and annotations of universal characters in a short while. This is a

The white jade slips were just right for Xu Chenglin to make copies of.
