Chapter 342 The red dust casts the foundation of the road
The Hall of the Human Emperor, as one of the overlord-level forces in the Human King's Heaven Realm, covers a vast area with countless sacred mountains and beautiful waters.
Each true disciple can be assigned a divine peak of their own.
Hongqiang has emerged as a new force in the Human Emperor Palace, and the young disciple who came from behind has followed Sui Renmo into retreat, and has the potential to become the number one disciple of the younger generation.
The sacred mountain where she lives is full of spiritual energy, majestic and has dragon veins entrenched in it, naturally exuding a majestic atmosphere.
And because she planned to challenge Sui Renmo and formally strive for the status of chief disciple, the sacred mountain where she was located became a lot more lively.
From time to time, other true disciples come to visit.
From time to time, some disciples came to seek refuge.
So much so that she had already gathered several confidants, junior brothers and sisters around her.
Rose Cave, as a cave named by Hongqiang himself, has become the core haunt of those disciples.
On this day, seven or eight close disciples gathered around Hongqiang to give her advice.
However, a young male disciple revealed some worries.
"Senior sister, do we really want to find trouble with senior brother Suiren?"
"Junior Brother Xiuguang, what do you mean? In your heart, isn't Senior Sister Hongqiang Sui Renmo's opponent?"
"Senior Sister Mu, that's not what I meant. I just think that since Senior Brother Suiren is practicing in seclusion, if we go to disturb him with such a big fanfare, I'm afraid that in the eyes of the elders and hall masters, we don't know the rules and are suspected of murdering our fellow disciples.
After all, rashly disturbing other people’s practice is a taboo in the spiritual world, and those who obstruct their path are irreconcilable.”
"Do you need to remind me of this? If you don't take this into consideration, how could Senior Sister Hongqiang rashly challenge Sui Renmo."
"Senior Sister Mu, do you mean that Li Ping's reports were all arranged in advance?" Xiu Guang looked at the woman named Mu next to Hong Qiang with a surprised look on his face.
"Okay, Junior Brother Xiuguang, you don't have to worry. Senior Sister Hongqiang will not do anything that breaks the rules." Senior Sister Mu's eyes exuded wisdom, as if everything was in their calculations.
Xiu Guang was not too stupid at last and quickly understood the reason. No wonder Senior Sister Hongqiang asked them to talk about this incident in front of Li Ping before. It turned out to be a trap for Li Ping.
In fact, there is no such thing as a challenge at all.
After thinking that she had figured out the key to the matter, Xiuguang couldn't help but develop a deep admiration for Senior Sister Hongqiang. Using this subtle way to interrupt Senior Brother Suiren's enlightenment was a double kill.
Without showing up or exerting any force, a senior brother who has been in seclusion and enlightenment until a critical moment can be destroyed.
Sure enough, Senior Sister Hongqiang is worthy of being able to peek into the position of chief disciple.
Feeling the change in Xiu Guang's eyes, Hong Qiang finally said: "Xiu Guang, you have a good relationship with Li Ping. Go and invite him over. Now that Senior Brother Suiren has seen him, let's let the maze we laid out before
Let’s become real. I also want to see what Senior Brother Suiren has gained from seclusion in these years. There will eventually be a battle between me and him. It seems that there is no need to wait for him to come out of seclusion on his own."
"Do you still want to fight?"
Xiuguang looked at the red wall with a surprised look on his face. This was different from what he thought.
Hong Qiang, who seemed to have seen through Xiu Guang's thoughts, said: "Junior brother, you have to remember that if we monks want to replace them, they must win over the people in their original positions. This is the true meaning of our hard training as monks.
"
Xiuguang's heart suddenly dawned, and then he was startled. Unknowingly, he had developed a fear of fighting. If things go on like this, he might become a person with only empty cultivation but no fighting spirit. He is destined to become a stepping stone for the younger generation in the future.
.
They have done this kind of thing many times themselves.
Those monks who are not high in cultivation but are older have been regarded as targets for advancement before and have challenged many people.
Although the Human King's Heaven and Earth are vast, and their Human Emperor's Palace also occupies a huge area, generally speaking, the heaven and earth have not bred many cultivation resources. After careful calculation, the resources allocated to each person are still very limited.
Even if they are the true disciples of the Human Emperor Palace, the divine mountain where they live can only sustain their cultivation to the secret realm of dragon transformation.
If you want more fortune and more resources, you must fight, seize, and fight.
The birth of the Nine Heavens Realm did not fundamentally change the reality that the essence of heaven and earth was insufficient.
It only solves the problem of the continuous flow of the essence of heaven and earth, and prevents the universe from truly entering the Age of Ending Dharma.
[A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years, Yeguo Reading! It is so easy to use. I rely on this app to read and listen to books while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here www. 】
The birth of the Nine Heavens Realm is just to gather the essence of heaven and earth that was originally scattered on the ancient stars of life in various parts of the universe into the Nine Heavens Realm.
The starry sky outside the sky is still dry, and there are no stars suitable for monks to live.
It can be said that all the creations that can help them grow have been included in the Nine Heavens.
If you can't capture more cultivation resources for growth within the Nine Heavens Realm, then there won't be any opportunities outside the Heaven Realm.
Generally speaking, with the birth of the Nine Heavens Realm, the degree of involution of the monks in the major heaven realms has increased.
However, one hundred thousand years of evolution have allowed them to adapt to this severe involution.
On the contrary, I don’t know the joy of being able to freely absorb the essence of heaven and earth, and even use precious divine sources to assist cultivation.
The reason why Hongqiang challenged Sui Renmo and wanted to get the position of chief disciple was to prepare in advance for a place to explore the secret realm thirty years later.
Only the chief disciple of the Human Emperor Palace can represent the Human Emperor Palace in the secret world jointly controlled by thirteen major forces.
Rumor has it that in that secret realm, there are magical medicines that can help monks realize their enlightenment, and there are supreme creations that can repair the monks' foundation.
Anyway, it is much better than what they can get in the Human Emperor's Palace.
It can be said that the world of spiritual practice at this time is a seriously involution world.
If it were before, the important heirs of a powerful force like the Human Emperor Palace would not be short of all kinds of magical elixirs and medicines. The cultivation resources would at least be open to support their cultivation to the level of the Second Immortal Power.
Unlike now, as soon as they enter the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm, the resources allocated by the sect can no longer meet their cultivation needs.
The serious shortage of resources has caused the growth rate of monks to generally slow down. There are very few examples of monks with good talents like those in the Emperor of Heaven period who were able to cultivate to the secret realm of Xiantai in just a few decades.
Even if one has extraordinary talent, top-level qualifications, and does not have fifty years of hard training, it is still a delusion to enter the secret realm of Sendai.
You must know that fifty years, when the Heavenly Court is still there, is enough for those top geniuses to cultivate to the realm of great kings, and even the semi-saint realm is possible.
It is conceivable how bad the current monastic environment is.
As the true disciples of the Human Emperor's Palace and the absolute top leaders in the future, they all need to worry about some cultivation resources.
This was just before Xian Sanzhan Dao.
You know, the former genius-level monks have never had to worry about cultivation resources.
Only when it involves enlightenment, something that is difficult to use external assistance, will their cultivation slow down.
The former geniuses had no shortage of things like divine sources and precious medicines.
Everyone is extremely rich.
It's not like now, working hard for some magical medicine.
However, although such a competitive environment is more cruel, it is more able to hone monks with a firm mind.
Once the environment of heaven and earth changes drastically, their cultivation will advance by leaps and bounds.
Just like Beidou back then, after the Qing Emperor's suppression of the Great Dao disappeared, taking the Maurya King as an example, the cultivation level of a figure like the Maurya King would advance by leaps and bounds. In just one or two hundred years, from
The level of Immortal Ermong has leapt to the level of Saint or even Saint King.
Of course, the current Nine Heavenly Realm monks probably won’t be able to see that kind of scene.
According to Zhuang Jiutian's estimation, it will take 200,000 years for that kind of world environment suitable for cultivating Taoism to reappear. At that time, it will coincide with the opening of the Road to Immortality, and it may cause some waves again.
However, this has nothing to do with Zhuang Jiutian.
For a monk like him who is no longer restricted by the big universe, no matter how the environment of heaven and earth changes, it will not affect his practice.
However, it is precisely because of this cruel cultivation environment that those who truly have a Taoist heart can stand out. Once the mind is tempered to the point where it can transcend the world of mortals and see the Tao clearly, it will be a great thing.
Then their future must be limitless.
The method created by Zhuang Jiutian, which consumes less energy from heaven and earth, is extremely precious.
It can make that kind of person advance by leaps and bounds without being affected by the essence of heaven and earth.
In the early stages of cultivation, there is no need to rush around in order to compete for and collect more cultivation resources, and there is no need to waste the already reduced lifespan, and there is more time for enlightenment.
While Hong Qiang and others were plotting against Sui Renmo, Sui Renmo quickly understood Zhuang Jiutian's intentions with Zhuang Jiutian's prompting.
This is a test for him.
When the cultivation level is low, being able to protect oneself from the attacks of high-level monks will establish a strong psychological advantage for low-level monks.
In the early days of his cultivation, Emperor Ye Tian often faced the pursuit of high-level monks.
However, he was able to escape again and again. This experience gave him strong self-confidence when facing monks of the same level.
Don't underestimate the self-confidence of monks. It is a very important thing for those monks who have not killed the Tao and have not yet clearly understood the Tao.
The power of the seven emotions and six desires has a great influence on monks in the early stages of practice.
Only after cutting off the Tao and understanding the Tao mind will the influence gradually disappear.
At that time, the competition between Tao and Xing will be the key.
If Taoism is high, it is high, and if it is low, it is low. There is no room for falsehood.
It is not only Sui Renmo who has to go through this kind of experience to refine his heart in the world of mortals.
Others also have to go through this experience.
Because the Dao cultivation method created by Zhuang Jiutian is different from the methods of the five secret realms, especially the step of casting the Dao foundation in the fourth realm, it is even more related to the monk's future.
Once it is finalized, it is difficult to change it in the future.
Ten years have passed like this, and Sui Renmo finally solved the problem of the Red Wall with his talent.
The ten years of battle of wits and courage with the red wall also tempered Sui Renmo's mind.
Just after Sui Renmo had experienced the state of mind to the level of "not being happy with things and not being sad with oneself", Zhuang Jiutian appeared again and taught the cultivation method of the fourth level.
"Senior, is there anything I need to pay attention to?" Suiren Mo asked seriously after memorizing the method taught by Zhuang Jiutian.
"Stick to your heart and endure the torture of the world of mortals for as long as possible. Only in this way can you forge a better quality foundation."
Zhuang Jiutian not only explained this point to Sui Renmo alone, but also explained it in detail to many monks in the Nine Heavens Domain who had practiced his great method.
Later, after comprehending the fourth level of cultivation key, Sui Renmo began to practice in the Taoist realm according to the method.
In the quiet room of the cave, Sui Renmo followed the method to mobilize the essence of the Three Treasures in the body.
According to the essentials taught by Zhuang Jiutian, the three purest forces were integrated to build a prototype of a great avenue seed that could carry the monk's true spirit.
As the divine power of the three treasures intertwines with each other and undergoes mysterious transformation, the other excess energy and spiritual power seems to be of no use.
This is the special thing about Zhuang Jiutian's Dao Dharma. It doesn't require so much energy and spirit, and quantity is not as good as specialization.
As long as the essence, energy, and spirit each have a complete and pure divine power, it will be enough.
With the construction of Sui Renmo, the power of his Three Treasures of Spirit, Qi, and God finally transformed into the shape of a flame at a certain moment.
Done!
According to the Dharma records of the fourth level, this is how the seeds of the Great Dao are born.
Subsequently, as long as the true spirit is guided into the flame-like Tao seed, Sui Renmo will officially enter the fourth level of Tao foundation.
Of course, once the true spirit falls into the Tao seed transformed from the Three Treasures of Essence, Qi, and God, internal demons and external demons will follow one after another, and the earthly fire accumulated in the body will be ignited.
With one go, Suiren Moyun uses the mysterious method to pour the true spirit in his body into the Tao seed.
A "touch" sound.
A fire transformed from the aura of mortal world was born in his body.
Then the inner demons transformed by the energy of the world of mortals began to attack the newly born Tao seed.
At this point, it's time to test your state of mind.
Being able to keep the Tao Seed motionless and unbroken under the joint attack of the fire of the world of mortals and the inner demons, and the longer the Tao Seed is maintained, the stronger the Tao Seed will be forged and the better the quality will be.
.
Suiren Mo persisted for nine days. When he could no longer hold on, Dao Zhong subconsciously launched a counterattack, repelling the fire of the mortal world and the inner demons on the spot.
At this time, the quality of his Taoism has been finalized.
In fact, as long as you persist for one day, the Tao seed will not be defeated, but that Tao seed is the weakest.
As the fire of the world of mortals and the inner demons faded away, a cloud of calamity gathered outside Sui Renmo's cave.
Suiren Mo immediately flew out of the cave and came to the top of the mountain to endure the baptism of thunder.
After the nine heavenly thunders passed, the flame Taoism seemed to come alive and was full of spirituality.
At this point, Sui Renmo's fourth level is considered a complete introduction.
From then on, he can rely on the power of Tao seeds to understand the myriad ways of heaven and earth.
This kind of self-condensed Tao seed is the medium that Zhuang Jiutian combined with the body cultivation method and refined for monks to realize the Tao. It is also called the foundation of the Tao. It is the physical Tao seed that is most compatible with the monk's body.
Tao seed is also a kind of foundation of Tao that can carry all the ways of heaven and earth.
When the Tao Seed is first formed, the fourth level is regarded as entry. After that, it is enlightenment, and the illusory Tao Seed is cultivated to the level of solidification and perfection.
At the same time, the grade of the Tao seed is not static. As long as the monk is talented enough, he can undergo another transformation after the Tao seed is perfected.
Take the flame-shaped Tao Seed formed by Sui Renmo as an example. As long as he is talented enough, it is possible to transform the flame Tao Seed into a Chaos Immortal Fire level Tao Seed.
But with his talent, I'm afraid he can't do this.
As for whether he will encounter a fortune that can transform his Tao seed, that depends on his luck.
However, Zhuang Jiutian estimated that when he reaches the fourth level of perfection, it is still very possible for him to undergo a metamorphosis with the help of spiritual objects from heaven and earth.
After all, cultivation has always been full of infinite possibilities, and monks will not be truly imprisoned. It all depends on the talent of that monk.
For example, if someone produces a low-quality ordinary weed seed, if he is talented enough, he may transform the weed seed into a high-level god-shaped Tao seed like Nine-leaf Sword Grass.
Of course, this depends on personal luck and talent.
The cultivation of the fourth level of the Tao cultivation method created by Zhuang Jiutian is mainly divided into two parts. One part is to produce Tao seeds, and the other part is to breed Tao seeds. After the Tao seeds are perfected, they can take root and sprout and enter the next level.
A realm.
The birth of Taoism was full of hardships.
The joint attack of the mortal fire and the inner demon is forging the quality of the Tao seed.
If you can persist until the fire of red heart and the attacks of the inner demon are ineffective against the Tao seed, then the quality of this Tao seed is undoubtedly the strongest.
The thunder from the outside world is just an external force that enchants the Tao seed.
At the same time, Tianlei is also a key to unlocking the ability of Taoism to realize Taoism.
The more heavenly thunders a Tao seed can carry and the stronger its spirituality, the easier it will be for monks to realize Taoism in the future.
People like Suiren Mo, who have withstood the nine heavenly fires and nine heavenly thunders, are considered ordinary.
That is to say, the Taoist practice method has just been established, and there is no precedent to follow.
Monks generally cannot cultivate every realm to its limit.
And in Zhuang Jiutian's opinion, this is because the purity of the Three Treasures of Essence, Qi, and God cultivated by Sui Renmo is not high.
With the quality of his Taoism, it is already the limit for him to become a saint in the future.
After summarizing and observing thousands of cases of success or failure, Zhuang Jiutian also gained a new understanding of the fourth level of practice.
Theory cannot replace reality.
There is no one who can reach the theoretical upper limit, or even come close to it.
According to Zhuang Jiutian's estimation, as long as the Tao seed persists in being attacked by the fire of the mortal world and the inner demons for ninety-nine and eighty-one days, then the Tao seed will give birth to an immortal divinity that is not afraid of the fire of the mortal world and the combined attacks of the inner demons, that is,
The quality of Taoism has reached the limit that heaven and earth can tolerate.
Then after experiencing ninety-nine and eighty-one lightning attacks, the monk's understanding will be developed to the maximum.
It is even possible to obtain a perverted understanding comparable to that of a person with the supreme physique of an innate chaotic body or an innate holy body.
It's a pity that among the people Zhuang Jiutian preaches, there are only a handful of people who can persist in being burned by the fire of the mortal world and transcend Jiutian.
However, if you can persevere for nine days, you can cast the ninth grade Tao seed, and your future sainthood is foreseeable.
As for whether Suiren Mo, who possesses the ninth grade of Taoism, will be able to cultivate into a Saint King in the future, there is a high probability that he will not be able to do so.
After inductive deduction and summary, Zhuang Jiutian divided the quality of Taoism into nine grades.
The ninth level of Taoism has the appearance of a saint, the eighth level of Taoism has the appearance of a saint king, the seventh level of Taoism has the appearance of a great sage, the sixth level of Taoism has the appearance of a triple quasi-emperor, and the fifth level of Taoism has the appearance of a sixth-level heavenly quasi-emperor.
In terms of posture, the fourth grade of Taoism has the posture of a quasi-emperor in the ninth heaven, the third grade of Taoism has the posture of a great emperor, the second grade of Taoism has the posture of a heavenly emperor, and the first grade of Taoism has the posture of becoming an immortal.
As for Tao seeds below the ninth level, king is already their limit.
Moreover, those whose Taoism can endure the burning of the red dust fire for more than six days, and can completely withstand the test of nine thunders, are considered kings.
As for those who took advantage of the six-day period or did not fully resist the baptism of nine thunders with their physical bodies and Tao seeds during the tribulation, their achievements would be extremely limited.
When they reach the next level of cultivation, their journey as monks will probably come to an end.
Not to mention seeing the supreme elegance of the sixth realm.
Through examples, Zhuang Jiutian discovered that the quality of Taoism will most likely determine a monk's future achievements.
Of course, if the talent is sufficient, the initial quality will not be high, but if the Tao seed can continue to transform several times in the fourth realm, it can also improve the quality of the Tao seed. Of course, this improvement is the birth of a high-quality Tao seed at once.
of sufficient spirituality.
However, it can be considered that the path of monks is not lost.
