Chapter 14 The road to ghost repair, inexplicable trouble
Du Ruo's current state is a little strange.
She has been practicing diligently over the years. Although she has no suitable method, she can only use the crude method of "absorbing Yin Qi" which makes people sigh, but the Yin Qi in the world of the Book of Heaven is so pure! In addition, Jasmine and Du Xin
These two masters give guidance from time to time and have achieved quite a lot so far.
Being able to control a large number of ghosts to search for Bibi Flower in all directions is a good proof.
The difference in "level" of things like ghosts is very obvious. When a person with a high level faces a person with a low level, there is a kind of mental pressure. No additional means are needed. Just a thought can command the opponent. Just like a pack of wolves.
The alpha wolf or the monkey king of a group of monkeys.
If she were at a higher level, she could even directly control low-level ghosts with her mind and turn them directly into her own clones.
Of course, Du Ruo would not do that, as that approach was not in line with her moral values.
She did not send out all the ghosts to search, but concentrated some of the more powerful ones and observed them carefully.
Wu Jie knew her intention. She wanted to find a suitable path for herself by studying how other ghosts grew up.
According to what Jasmine and Du Xin know, there are roughly three growth routes for ghosts:
The first is to grow by constantly devouring flesh and blood. This path is roughly divided into ghost king, ghost emperor, and ghost god. Ghost king is equivalent to the realm of Taoism, ghost emperor is equivalent to the realm of refining Gang or Condensing Yuan, and ghosts and gods are equivalent to the realm of returning elixir.
It's just that the power obtained from this cultivation method is too mixed, and there is too much resentment. In the end, it is likely that you will not be able to escape the Yin Fire. Even if you are lucky enough to survive the Yin Fire, you will degenerate into a demon or the like. If you are not burned by the Yin Fire,
If you are killed by a thunderbolt, you have to escape to the demon world - the Supreme God did a lot of experiments in the past, and finally thought that maybe this is how the original demon came.
The second route is to continuously absorb and accumulate yin energy. Eventually, the accumulated amount becomes a qualitative change. The yin pole generates yang. If you light a wisp of Shaoyang fire in the spirit, you can transform into a heavenly ghost, similar to the realm of heaven and man after a monk ascends.
.If you continue to accumulate like this and turn yin into yang, you will become a god.
However, Jasmine has seen a lot of people from ghosts to heavenly ghosts; but from heavenly ghosts to gods, they have never appeared even in the small world used by the Supreme God for experiments!
The last route is to gain faith in the world, first from a ghost to a yin god, then to an earthly being, and then gradually improve. If you are lucky, you can also become a god. There are people who have taken this road - as long as you control a world
, forcing the promotion of faith will definitely be able to cultivate ghosts to a level close to gods. As for whether we can finally rely on the power of faith to ignite the divine fire and become gods... Anyway, we can always succeed if we try a few more experiments...
Du Ruo initially grew up by absorbing yin energy, but before she was sure to embark on the path of heavenly ghost, she began to devour flesh and blood again, and the amount she devoured was astonishing, and she finally grew to the point where she was just shy of entering the realm of the ghost king.
However, at this time, she stopped devouring flesh and blood, and began to concentrate on cultivation, absorbing only pure Yin energy to increase her Taoism, and once again walked back to the path of heaven and ghost.
It would be fine if it was just like this, but when Wu Jie preached as Du Ruo at the Dragon Temple for several months, he passed down a Taoist tradition and gained some Taoist luck. Because he used the identity of Du Ruo, this Taoism
Luck gave some of the profit to Du Ruo himself.
Taoism is the most mysterious of the five fortunes, and it has endless uses. Changchun Master used one man's Taoism to almost completely break up Xiong Er's destiny, and also destroyed Wu Jie's fortune and Lin Lushan's fortune.
Wen Yun was suppressed, and such power was truly unbelievable!
Although Du Ruo didn't get much luck, it was enough to produce the effect of "faith", almost enough to make her a Yin God, so she embarked on the third path...
In the past ten years, she has walked up and down three roads, and has achieved a lot on each road. She has even raised her level to the point where she can command a group of ghosts. However, her path has changed.
It was so confusing that not to mention Du Xin couldn't tell, even Jasmine didn't know which type she should be classified as now.
Therefore, this trip to the Netherworld is also very meaningful to her - she hopes that by observing and studying other ghosts, she can find a truly suitable direction for herself, clarify her thoughts, and find a promising path.
As a fierce ghost, Du Ruo doesn't mind growing up by devouring flesh and blood, but she is quite dissatisfied with the results of the path of the ghost king, and does not want to become a demon in the end; she is willing to concentrate on cultivating, and also likes the path of the demon, but the demon
If the road cannot be determined by heaven
If a ghost becomes a god, he will not be able to live forever; as for believing in the road to becoming a god, she would not object to it if given the chance. The problem is that she herself does not know how to gain enough faith, and the final step of lighting the divine fire is really a bit difficult.
Ethereal and ethereal...
"Thinking about that now, don't you think it's too far away?" Du Xin once asked, "Even if you can fly to the sky, it doesn't mean you can live forever and see eternity. Why don't you lower your goal? I think if you lower your goal to
If you ascend to this level, the path will be much simpler."
Du Ruo smiled and did not answer the question.
But Wu Jie could probably guess why she had to pursue the path to immortality.
Wu Jie himself must pursue immortality. If he cannot succeed, everything will come to an end. But if he succeeds... he will gain eternal life and transcend the constraints of time. Du Ruo has always regarded himself as his sister.
, but ended up falling in front of time, being pulled away by him from a distance, and eventually became a passer-by on his road to immortality...
Her pride would not allow this to happen!
If Wu Jie had the ability to read minds, or if he could have a God's perspective, he might be able to see some other thoughts from the depths of Du Ruo's mind, but unfortunately he didn't know, not even Du Ruo himself.
All in all, Du Ruo wants to cultivate immortality, so she is working hard.
Seeing her working so hard, Wu Jie couldn't help but strengthen his daily practice.
He has been in the Nether World for nearly a year. He absorbs Yin Qi every day, and continuously condenses his soul by sifting out the magazines in the Yin Qi. Now his soul has basically taken shape. From a distance, there is almost no blur.
When you get closer and look carefully, you can occasionally see a little black energy and red light on his body.
The black energy is Yin energy, and the red light is true fire. When his soul can be condensed to the point where even Yin energy and true fire cannot be seen, and it is exactly the same as a flesh and blood body no matter how you look at it, that is when the realm of Tongyou is finally achieved, and you can
Consider gathering the two qi of yin and yang in order to trigger the Gang Feng.
Of course, this step is still far away from him. Even though his progress speed has been much faster than that of ordinary monks, it will still take at least three to five years.
Cultivation is like climbing a mountain. The higher you go to the top, the harder it gets. For example, a little bit of Taoism may only require a little effort at the beginning of a state, but the little bit required before reaching the Great Consummation of a state often requires hundreds of times.
Thousands of times the effort.
I don’t know how many monks have lost their minds during this boring and long daily practice with no visible results, and have become impetuous, either taking shortcuts or trying to force a breakthrough. The results are often very tragic, and they go wrong.
There are people who are possessed by demons, there are people who have unstable foundations and can no longer move forward, there are people who have inner demons and have fallen into evil ways...
Cultivation is a difficult and rugged road. No matter how good the conditions are, in the end your own hard work and patience are the key - of course, a little luck is also indispensable.
Wu Jie's luck has been good these days. The ghosts sent by Du Ruo reported back and found a small river formed by Yin Qi in the distance, with many other shore flowers blooming on the river beach!
Wu Jie and Du Ruo were overjoyed and hurried over there. Seeing that the poetic river beach decorated with dots of flowers on the other side of the river was already in sight, Du Ruo suddenly stopped and grabbed Wu Jie.
.
She used so much force that Wu Jie staggered and almost fell to the ground.
"What's wrong?"
"Something is wrong!" Du Ruo looked at the river beach nervously, even breathing a little heavier, "That river beach... gives me the feeling that there is something wrong!"
Wu Jie was stunned and looked toward the river beach, but he didn't see any problem.
It was a shallow river, with black water condensed by Yin Qi flowing in it. Both sides of the gentle river bed were covered with gravel, and among the gravel, there were dots of blue flowers growing.
These little flowers are emitting a faint light, lighting up the darkness of the river beach, and making people feel refreshed. They can't help but want to go out and take a closer look at them.
"It looks fine..."
"It's only when there's no problem that there really is a problem!" Du Ruo's expression became more and more solemn, "The Flower of the Other Side is the fusion of ghosts' 'liberation' joy and yin energy, so many ghosts who don't have deep obsessions like to live.
Wherever the other shore flowers are blooming. These days, we almost see ghosts like that wherever we pick the other shore flowers... But look, there are so many other shore flowers on the river beach in front, but not many ghosts can be seen. This is not normal!"
Although Wu Jie had read a lot of senior notes, he was a living person after all, not a dead person. He was not as clear about many things in the underworld as Du Ruo, a ghost.
So he believed Du Ruo's opinion, so he couldn't help but frown and looked at the river beach carefully, trying to find some clues.
"This situation is not impossible. For example, two masters had a fight there and scared away or eliminated the ghosts; or maybe a powerful evil ghost passed by and ate all the ghosts here."
Wu Jie shook his head as he spoke, "No! There are no traces of fighting or spell casting."
"Yes, it seems that there is no problem. It's just that there should have been a lot of ghosts missing." Du Ruo did not let go of his hand and pulled Wu Jie back slowly, "There is something weird in this place! Fourth, let's
Let’s go! Don’t cause this trouble!”
Wu Jie nodded and accepted her opinion.
Although he was quite curious about the river beach, he would never make fun of his own life!
Both of them were masters. Even if they were going backwards, they were walking at a very slow pace and were about to get away from the river beach.
At this moment, Wu Jie felt an extremely strong warning sign!
The shallow river water suddenly stirred up, and a black shadow flew up from the bottom of the river and rushed towards them. Before they reached them, a strong aura of greed and resentment hit their faces like a rotten stench.
It's a monster lurking at the bottom of the river!
