After the Heavenly Master saw the two of them, he mainly asked about their studies.
Among the three masters, the Celestial Master is the most approachable, and this is not just talk. If it does not involve the Taoist sect, the Celestial Master at this time is more like an ordinary elder. If it were a national master or an earth master, he would not bother with such a trivial matter.
After the two answered one by one, Qi Xuansu began to ask about the method of the ancient witch's pseudo-ascension.
Faced with these old people who can penetrate people's hearts, Qi Xuansu usually does not try to beat around the bush, but goes straight to the point and asks questions directly. As long as these old people are kind to him, this method is very popular with him.
After hearing this, the Heavenly Master was not very surprised. He just said, "It seems that you have initially understood the mystery of the 'Eternal Life Stone'."
Only Zhang Yuelu was confused. She knew about the "Eternal Life Stone", but she didn't know what pseudo-ascension was. However, she was not stupid. She immediately realized that this must be related to Qi Xuansu's visit to Tianshui Yixin Tower. She did not ask deeply at the time.
I just knew that Qi Xuansu went to look up information about ancient witchcraft, and then went to class normally for the past two days, almost forgetting about this matter.
Qi Xuansu saw Zhang Yuelu's doubts, and half answered the Heavenly Master, and half explained to Zhang Yuelu, "I don't dare to say that I have a thorough understanding. I mainly consulted the ancient books about ancient witchcraft. Only then did I know that the ancient witches had a pseudo-ascension ceremony, which was not about leaving."
Instead of the human world, he ascended to the Lingshan Cave Heaven."
The Celestial Master said, "There is indeed such a thing. There are relevant records in the notes left by the Celestial Master."
As he spoke, the Heavenly Master reached out and grabbed it, seeming to have passed through the many spaces between the Wanxiang Taoist Palace and the Dazhen Palace, and took out a roll of bamboo slips out of thin air. Although the art of papermaking was already available in the time of the Ancestral Heavenly Master, it was still
Taking bamboo slips as the mainstream, replacing one thing with another always requires a step-by-step process and cannot be accomplished overnight.
The Heavenly Master unfolded the bamboo slips, took a quick glance, and said, "Actually, the kind of pseudo-ascension you are talking about is not unique to ancient witchcraft. Taoism has also happened in it, but the place where people from Taoism go to fake ascension is the Kunlun Cave. In
In the past, Kunlun Cave had another name, called "Di Xianjie". Because Kunlun Cave had four states at its peak, it was divided into four major states: Dongsheng Shenzhou, Xiniu Hezhou, and Nanzhanbu.
Zhou, Luzhou in the north. Of course, as the end of the world approaches, the Kunlun Cave is gradually coming to an end. Today, the Kunlun Cave is no longer in its prime, and at most half of the state is left."
Zhang Yuelu was a little surprised, "Kunlun Cave Heaven disappeared so quickly. I have read records before, saying that there was still a state in Xuansheng's time."
Tianshi said, "In a few hundred years,
, even this half of the state is gone.”
Qi Xuansu interjected, "Which state is this state? Just talking about area, the difference between Xizhou and Jiangzhou is huge. Even if it is an overseas continent, Fenglinzhou cannot be compared with Borneo."
Zhang Yuelu said, "It's almost the size of Zhongzhou."
Qi Xuansu understood.
After all, he had been to Kunlun Cave, which was the time when he had a conflict with Wang Danqing. He had also learned about the general situation of Kunlun Cave from some Taoist books.
The structure of Kunlun Cave is very mysterious, somewhat similar to the legendary "Peach Blossom Spring". It is very small at first and becomes wider as you go deeper. Regardless of the various "side doors" opened by Taoist gates, if you enter the Kunlun Cave through normal ways, it will only be small at first.
It's just a mountain. When you enter Lu Wu's residence, you suddenly become enlightened. From Lu Wu's residence, you enter the Five Elements Cave Heaven. This place is also called "Five Elements Heaven". It is the medicine garden of the Taoist sect. It was here that the six enlightened witches fought against the Kunlun gatekeeper Lu Wushen.
And refine the second generation "Eternal Life Stone".
This place is comparable to several other places.
Next to the Five Elements Cave is the Kunlun Cave. In the past, the Zixiao Palace was located in the Kunlun Cave. However, as the Kunlun Cave fell to the ground and merged with the human world, the Zixiao Palace was no longer in the Kunlun Cave but appeared in the Kunlun Cave.
Top.
It just confirms what Tianshi said that the Kunlun Cave is constantly shrinking.
Viewed as a whole, the entire Kunlun Cave is like an upside-down mountain. The top of the mountain is connected to the Yuxu Peak of Kunlun in the world. Therefore, entering the Kunlun Cave is from the "top" position, then all the way up, and finally to the vast
The "foothills" area.
The Heavenly Master explained in depth, "As early as in ancient times, the Kunlun Cave was not yet closed. Immortal people would often go to the Kunlun Cave after their one hundred years of life were over. In the eyes of ordinary people, this was considered ascension."
"At that time, many people with great supernatural powers had not yet passed away, and it seemed that humans and gods were living together. The Kunlun Cave was full of spiritual energy, and many earthly immortals were living in seclusion here in order to survive the catastrophe. Although the Kunlun Cave at this time was not considered
Going to the real thirty-third heaven is not far away. Therefore, the masters who can go to the Kunlun Cave Heaven are actually almost the same as immortals. This is also the reason why Taoist sects have always respected earth immortals in the past."
"It's just that with the incarnation of Taishang Daozu and the ascension and death of the Emperor of Heaven, he also experienced the Mu
In the wild battle, all the Earth Immortals were killed or injured. Most of the survivors chose to ascend and pass away. The number of Earth Immortals in Kunlun Cave Heaven was decreasing day by day. When the Zixiao Palace was closed, Kunlun Cave Heaven became a land without an owner, and the people in the Taoist sect began to fight for their lives.
There was a great fight over the ownership of the Kunlun Cave, which eventually led to the Taoist Lord Nanhua to seal the Kunlun Cave, leaving Lu Wu to take care of the Kunlun Cave and prohibiting those without the opportunity to enter it without permission. The genius of the Kunlun Cave gradually became a legendary place in the eyes of future generations.
"
"Later on, the word 'Kunlun' no longer symbolized the fairyland, but was just generally called the Taoist ancestral court. Many people who came to Kunlun according to the records in the classics only saw the white snow and no fairy atmosphere at all, and they just thought it was snowy.
The records in the book are deliberately exaggerated by predecessors and are nothing more than imagination."
"It wasn't until Xuansheng integrated the Taoist gates that the Kunlun Cave Heaven reappeared and landed. By the way, the 'Three Treasures Ruyi' is the key to the Kunlun Cave Heaven."
After Qi Xuansu heard this, he was greatly shocked, and then asked, "What is the relationship between Kunlun Cave and Lingshan Cave?"
"Of course it is related." The Heavenly Master said unhurriedly, "Both of them arrive at the same destination by different routes. I don't have the method of the great witch's ascension that you want to know here. Because the great witch's ascension requires the altar of the ancient witch religion and performs blood sacrifices. Those altars
It has been destroyed long ago. The Taoist sect opposes blood sacrifice and will not rebuild it. However, the Taoist sect’s pseudo-ascension method is essentially the same as the great witch’s ascension. I have this pseudo-ascension method.”
Zhang Yuelu asked curiously, "Does it also require ascending to the Kunlun Cave? Isn't there a normal entrance portal?"
Tianshi said, "Because the normal path passes through the Five Elements Heaven, there are six enlightened witches blocking the way, and God Lu Wu is sitting in the way, so it is necessary to directly enter the Kunlun Cave Heaven through the method of pseudo-ascension. However, the Kunlun Cave Heaven was closed later, and this pseudo-ascension method was also
It is impossible to enter the Kunlun Cave, so it only exists in ancient records and is almost lost. That is to say, our Zhang family's inheritance has never been cut off, so we still have a complete pseudo-ascension method."
Qi Xuansu couldn't help but ask, "Doesn't Taoist's pseudo-ascension method require altars and blood sacrifices?"
"No need." Tianshi said, "The reason why the great witches of ancient witchcraft religions need altars and blood sacrifices is not for pseudo-ascension, but for changing the body. It's just that the ancestral witches integrated pseudo-ascension and body-changing. It's difficult to
To distinguish, it becomes a false ascension that requires the use of an altar. As for the blood sacrifice, it does not have to be human blood, the blood of wild beasts can also be used."
Qi Xuansu recalled the appearance of the great witches he saw in his dream, and suddenly said, "In addition to being as tall as giants, the ancestral witches also have various animal characteristics, precisely because of the blood sacrifice."
The Heavenly Master nodded and said, "That's right. After the ancient wizards performed the pseudo-ascension ceremony, their appearance changed drastically, their strength greatly increased, and they went to another world. In the eyes of ordinary people, they were ascended."
Qi Xuansu asked again, "Now that the Kunlun Cave is reopened, if I use the Dao Sect's pseudo-ascension method, will I directly ascend to the Kunlun Cave?"
Tianshi said, "No, because the Zixiao Palace is no longer in the Kunlun Cave. The Zixiao Palace is the key to this pseudo-ascension method. It can also be said that the Zixiao Palace is a guiding light, used to determine coordinates. It is no longer there.
, then you can’t go. Of course, you can’t go to Zifu, where Zixiao Palace is now. In short, it’s a useless method.”
Qi Xuansu had some vague understanding, but still asked, "Since it is a useless method, then why should I go to Lingshan Cave?"
The Heavenly Master pointed at his heart, "If others use this fake ascension method, nothing will happen. But you have the 'Heart of Immortality Stone' inherited from ancient witchcraft in your body, which will guide you to ascend to the Lingshan Cave Heaven.
There is no need to look for the entrance to Lingshan Cave Heaven."
Qi Xuansu said, "In this way, I can go, but others cannot."
The Heavenly Master flicked his finger, and a flash of light penetrated Qi Xuansu's eyebrows: "This is the Taoist method of pseudo-ascension. It is not difficult, but there is a threshold, and it requires cultivation at the creation stage."
Qi Xuansu asked, "Is this also true for ancient witchcraft?"
Tianshi said, "As far as I know, the ancient witchcraft's method of pseudo-ascension also requires cultivation at the creation stage. However, after the physical transformation of the blood sacrifice, the pseudo-ascension witch will gain the strength of a pseudo-immortal. The Taoist sect's method of ascension
The method is simpler, but it will not increase your state of cultivation."
Qi Xuansu nodded, knowing that he must first reach the stage of creation before he could explore the Lingshan Cave.
As for how to reach the stage of creation, it is difficult to say and easy to say.
Today, Qi Xuansu is only one step away from the stage of creation. To be more intuitive, there is only one piece of "Xuan Jade" left.
According to his expectation, the Yao family would give him this "mysterious jade".
This is also one of the many gifts of fate that has already been secretly marked with a price.
In order to know the secretly marked price as soon as possible, Qi Xuansu had to accept the gift of "fate" once again.
Anyway, if you have too many debts, you don’t have to worry about them. If you have too many lice, you don’t have to worry about them. Just let them be.
