In the Nine-layer Heavenly Palace, disciples are divided into two levels: heaven and earth.
Earth-level disciples are in the state of concentration, while heaven-level disciples are in the state of divine appearance.
Earth-level disciples just practice and practice again, using the resources of the Nine Heavenly Palace to continuously improve themselves and become stronger until they break through.
Heaven-level disciples, that is, those in the realm of gods, are stronger. Their strength far exceeds that of earth-level disciples, at least ten times. At this point, they have the basic qualifications to go out and explore.
Although Jiuzhong Tianque is powerful and profound, it cannot be cultivated and consumed endlessly. Therefore, when you reach the level of the divine phase, there is a new rule. You must complete the tasks issued by Jiuzhong Tianque. Only by completing the task can you continue.
Enjoy the resources of the Ninth Level Heavenly Palace. If you fail to complete the task three times, you will be removed from the heavenly level disciples and become a deacon.
This is a test, a test of whether you are still qualified to continue to enjoy the resources of Jiuzhong Tianque.
Deacons can only enjoy a basic salary, which is a resource that cannot be compared with heaven-level disciples. They must make more contributions to the Nine Heavenly Palace to qualify for more resources.
century!
Every hundred years, a heaven-level disciple must complete a task issued by the Nine Heavenly Palace, usually one of three, as long as it is completed within a hundred years after becoming a heaven-level disciple.
If it is not completed within the time limit, it will be considered a failure.
There are three opportunities in total. If you use all three opportunities, you can only be eliminated from the heaven-level disciples. Of course, after being eliminated, you will also have the opportunity to become a disciple again, but it will be more difficult.
If there are any unexpected circumstances, such as a long period of seclusion for cultivation, and if you cannot ensure that you will be released from the seclusion within a hundred years, you must apply in advance, and then, after you come out of the seclusion, you can make up the tasks that must be completed.
Is it okay not to do any tasks?
That's okay, then you can only be listed on the list of generals.
Once you are listed on the list of generals, whether you complete the mission or not is completely voluntary and there will no longer be any restrictions.
Because being on the list of generals means that they are powerful enough for Jiuchong Tianque to spend resources on cultivating them properly.
Four months passed in the world of refining, and Chen Zong left and returned to Heart Sword Peak.
Not long after, a deacon arrived with a mission.
Three tasks, allowing Chen Zong to freely choose one of them to execute and complete.
It has been less than ten years since Chen Zong broke through to the divine realm, and there is still a lot of time before a hundred years. The reason why he sent the mission so quickly is to let Chen Zong know what time he wants to go.
The deacon was also very polite when he received him. After all, although Chen Zong was from the human race, he had extraordinary abilities.
The selection was completed very quickly, and Chen Zong selected one of the tasks. After sending the deacon away, he went into seclusion again.
When one is in the Concentrating Soul Realm, one must still consume Clear Water Pills and Fine Flesh Pills every day to maintain body consumption, but after reaching the Divine Phase Realm, this need is greatly reduced, at least ten times less.
Undoubtedly, this greatly prolongs the effect of retreat practice.
Because the higher the cultivation level, the longer the retreat time will be. It is best not to interrupt if possible.
If you reach the fourth realm, you will no longer need food to maintain your body's consumption. Eating becomes a habit or enjoyment rather than a necessity.
After Chen Zong selected the mission, he did not retreat immediately, but went to the Dao League headquarters first.
The Dao League headquarters is located in the sixth heaven.
In the Dao League headquarters, the Sutra-Tiding Pavilion that Chen Zong saw was no longer a shadow, and the Enlightenment Tower was also not a shadow, but a real entity.
In fact, the phantoms of the Sutra-Depository Pavilion and Enlightenment Tower in the Fifth Tiandao Alliance are all projections, because the Sutra-Depository Pavilion and Enlightenment Tower themselves are also treasures.
Chen Zong stepped into the Sutra Pavilion. Now, Chen Zong has been promoted to the level of the divine phase. His status in the Tao Alliance has also been improved, and he can enter the higher level of the Sutra Pavilion.
Take your pick!
In the end, Chen Zong chose a speed-based secret method called Whirlwind, which coincided with the Nine Heavens Breathing Wind Annihilation Strength he practiced, making it easier to understand and practice, and it was easier to exert its due power.
After obtaining the Secret Technique of Whirlwind, Chen Zong chose a few more martial arts minors, but then he stepped into the Enlightenment Building and began to comprehend.
fencing!
Owu!
During the month on the northern front in the void, Chen Zong successfully upgraded all four prototypes of Owu into real Owu. Of course, it was only the most basic Owu. Now, further improvement is needed.
Aowu is the comprehensive release of all one's own powers, and is also the most direct representative of strength.
There is still a big gap between whether you have mastered Owu or not.
Each of those masters on the list of heavenly generals has mastered powerful weapons.
The basic martial arts of Jiuzhong Tianque such as Jiuzhong True Sword, each with ninety-nine kinds of mysteries, is a masterpiece summed up by the ancestors of Jiuzhong Tianque.
The first-level Owu must integrate at least nine kinds of mysteries into one, but it is not that simple. It must cooperate with the power of Tao. It can be said that the power of Sword Dao Owu is based on the power of Tao as its root, its intention as its soul, and the mystery of swordsmanship as its flesh and blood.
, and finally combined in a wonderful way to release the power with superb skills.
As for the second-level Owu, it combines eighteen kinds of mysteries.
There are twenty-seven kinds of mysteries in the third level of arcane martial arts.
Of course, in addition to integrating more mysteries, the level of the avenue must also be improved, and so must its purpose.
There are ninety-nine kinds of mystery, so correspondingly, there should be eleven levels of arcana, but the higher the level of arcana, the more difficult it is to master.
Aowu can be created by one's own, or one can practice what has been created and left behind by predecessors.
After leaving the Enlightenment Building, Chen Zong returned to the Heart Sword Palace and retreated again, practicing the secret method of whirlwind and several selected kendo skills.
Whether it is the Whirlwind Spin or those swordsmanship skills, they were all created by the powerful ancestors of the Dao Alliance. Chen Zonghui will practice them, and he will also absorb the essence from them and turn them into his own accumulation. When he creates his own secret skills in the future, he will be able to use them.
It comes in handy.
In addition to practicing in seclusion, Chen Zong will also go to the Shenwu Temple to practice.
The nine major temples are divided into three levels: outer, middle and inner. With Chen Zong's current level, you can enter the middle hall.
In the middle hall of Shenwu Hall, there is also the Sword Palace.
It's just that the Sword Palace in the middle hall of Shenwu Hall is different from the Sword Palace in the outer hall. There are ninety-nine sword pillars in the Sword Palace in the outer hall. Each sword pillar contains a kind of mystical swordsmanship. There are nine sword palaces in the middle hall.
Huge sword pillars, each sword pillar is ten times the size of the sword pillars in the outer palace.
Chen Zong began to comprehend. Once he understood, Chen Zong discovered that the mystery contained in these sword pillars was exactly the mystery of Aowu.
To put it simply, there are no Owu in the nine sword pillars. There are only the secrets of Owu in them.
For example, in the recipe for alchemy, it is not the finished elixir, but the experience and knowledge of alchemy, etc.
It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them how to fish. This is the truth.
Among the nine major powers, there are various kinds of sacred weapons, many of which were created by predecessors or obtained from the outside world, and the existence of the nine major temples is to help with understanding.
The nine sword pillars in the Sword Palace in the middle hall of Shenwu Hall are no longer like the Sword Palace in the outer hall, which can only be studied in one month. Instead, multiple people can study one of them at the same time, or they can study them separately. Everything is free.
After Chen Zong studied it one after another, he discovered that the mysteries of martial arts contained in the nine sword pillars were different, representing the nine directions.
The secrets of martial arts in the nine sword pillars are related to the way of swordsmanship. One of them represents strength, one represents speed, and the other represents edge, sharpness, etc.
Of course, what it represents is not unique, and it is not that simple. It takes one of them as the main one, and then supplements it with other mysteries to make it more powerful.
The nine directions were quite comprehensive, which amazed Chen Zong, and he had a clearer understanding of the foundation of the Nine Heavenly Palace.
It is indeed a great force in the universe. I don’t know how many seniors and masters have accumulated this kind of foundation from generation to generation, benefiting those who come after me.
Chen Zong still has three years to practice in the nine major temples. He will use all of them. He will directly activate the One Mind and Ten Artistic Concepts and meditate on the nine sword pillars respectively. Each sword pillar will be studied for a period of time. With the cooperation of the One Mind and Ten Artistic Concepts,
The effect of enlightenment is astonishingly good.
Such understanding also indirectly drives the improvement of Chen Zong's three great ways.
Three years later, Chen Zong left the Shenwu Palace and returned to the Heart Sword Palace again. He had to practice in seclusion. He felt like a switch had been turned on, and his potential was constantly emerging. As long as he practiced, he would be there every moment.
The feeling of improvement seemed to be endless, making Chen Zong almost addicted to it.
It was a feeling that couldn't be stopped at all, it was so wonderful and so refreshing.
If possible, Chen Zong really wants to keep improving like this, forever, but that is impossible, and Chen Zong himself knows this very well.
As he continued to practice in seclusion, he gradually approached a bottleneck period. Until one day, Chen Zong felt that he had reached the limit. He had reached the limit of what he could achieve at this stage. That limit could not be reached by practicing in seclusion.
It can be broken through.
Get out!
When Chen Zong came out of seclusion, it happened to be the thirty-fifth year since he broke through to the divine realm. In other words, after returning from the void, Chen Zong had been practicing for a full thirty years.
"Thirty years!" Chen Zong stared into the distance with deep and far-sighted eyes: "In these thirty years, although my cultivation has not broken through, my strength has been improving and constantly improving. Now my strength has finally reached
What level is it?”
Without action or fighting, Chen Zong didn't have a clear idea of his own level of strength.
"However, compared to thirty years ago, my strength is more than ten times stronger. Now that I have encountered a bottleneck, it is time to set off to complete the mission." Chen Zong said secretly.
After completing the mission, you still have more than a hundred years to improve yourself without having to worry about the mission.
What's more, the task I chose was just a chance for me to test my strength.
Even if you don't complete it all at once, as long as you don't give up on changing tasks or exceed the allotted time, it won't be considered a failure.
Of course, Chen Zong didn't think too much about giving up the task or failing. He felt that he could complete the task. It was a kind of self-confidence, which came from the self-confidence in his heart.
