"Fellow Daoist Xiao, the specifications of all Yingqi caves in our sect are the same. The only difference is that the spiritual energy of each mountain peak is different. I will take you directly to the enlightenment room to talk about it."
After speaking, Nalan Fangxin took out the token to open the door and walked into the cave.
After arriving at the meditation room of Nalan Fangxin's cave, Nalan Fangxin pointed at the half of the stone tablet.
"The pattern on the stone pillar is called the Ancient Martial Totem, but it is not the original one. The original totem disappeared thousands of years ago. All the totems in our cave are replicas carved in the past."
"It's a replica? So what's the use of this totem? Why is it placed in the enlightenment room?"
"It is said that the martial arts and immortal cultivation techniques in this world are all derived from this pattern. The original totem has two sides. One side is engraved with this pattern, and the other side is engraved with the division of martial arts and immortal cultivation, so it is called ancient martial arts. totem"
"As for why the rubbings of the ancient martial arts totems should be placed in the Yingqi Cave for special study, it is because the immortal cultivators in this world hope to learn more skills from the ancient martial arts totems. This is a tradition and also the immortal cultivators in this world. a mission”
"So that's it, then why does it take the Nascent Soul stage to comprehend? Since the martial arts and immortal cultivation techniques in this world are all learned from this totem, why not start to comprehend from the martial arts?" Xiao Hua was a little confused. .
"Enlightenment is not an easy task. Most of the techniques we practice now are left behind by our predecessors and already have text or pattern annotations. It saves time and effort when practicing, so there is no need to understand it from scratch."
"Besides, the ancient martial arts totem is just an all-encompassing mysterious pattern. If you want to create something from scratch, it requires not only wisdom but also time. Therefore, you will only have to wait until you advance to the Nascent Soul stage to understand it again."
"So that's it, um, it makes sense." Xiao Hua understood.
Since there is already a successful method learned from the ancient martial arts totem in this world, there is no need for the martial arts cultivators and alchemy monks in this world to waste time to learn it from scratch.
On the contrary, it is the Nascent Soul Stage monks who have reached the end of their time in this world and have plenty of time, so they need a second enlightenment.
It seems that no matter which interface the martial arts and immortal cultivation techniques are born with, they should all originate from the ancient martial arts totem, which is the divine seal. Perhaps the divine seal is the incarnation of the immortal cultivation law.
Xiao Hua thought about it carefully and realized that it was really possible. As the saying goes, Tao gave birth to one, two and two gave birth to three, and three gave birth to all things.
Tao refers to the orbit or trajectory of all things, or it can also be said to refer to the way everything is but not things themselves.
For example, the sun and the moon shine by themselves without being burned, and the stars follow their own order without being arranged, and the wind moves by itself, water flows by itself, vegetation grows by itself, etc. Everything follows certain laws without exception.
This law is neither born nor destroyed, has no form or image, has no beginning or end, is all-encompassing, its big has no outside, its small has no inside, it is eternal and unchanging, and is the foundation of everything in the world.
To put it plainly, it is Tao, which refers to the laws of heaven and earth.
As for the ancient martial arts totem, which is also the divine seal, it is the most primitive ancient gossip created by the gods.
The eight lines and the circle in the middle represent the nine ancient gods who created the world, as well as the heaven, earth, wind, thunder, Ze, mountains, fire, and water in nature.
Since the ancients in Xiaolingtian could understand Baguazhang, Bagua array and so on from Fuxi Bagua, then naturally the ancient cultivators here can too.
Xiao Hua finally realized that although the Divine Seal had mentioned the origin of the Immortal Cultivation Law, it had not said where the Immortal Cultivation Technique came from. Now he finally knows.
No matter which interface contains martial arts or immortal cultivation techniques, they were actually figured out by ancient monks by looking at the appearance of the divine seal. The divine seal is the incarnation of the immortal cultivation law, and it is also the origin of all cultivation techniques.
"Grandma, that's what happened. Well, oh, by the way, Senior Fangxin, you said that the most original totem disappeared thousands of years ago. What's going on?" Xiao Hua started again. curious.
"I'm not sure. I just heard from my father that the ancient martial arts totem was a huge stone tablet that first stood under the Black Spirit Peak in the Savage Beast Continent."
"At that time, there were no martial arts cultivators and immortal cultivators in this world. They were all mortals. There were not too many barbarian beasts in the Savage Beast Continent. There were also occasional material exchanges between the humans on the Human Race Continent and our Saint Race."
"But later on, I don't know which race understood the martial arts from the totem, and then used force to occupy the territory of another race, and used this race as a slave."
"Afterwards, in order to protect themselves or compete for greater benefits, various races printed a large number of totems, and specially sent talented people to learn, so there were martial cultivators in this world, and later there were immortal cultivators."
"Later on, in order to strengthen themselves and prevent other races from becoming stronger, the first batch of immortal cultivators wanted to monopolize the ancient martial arts totem. As a result, a war among thousands of races was triggered. In the end, the totem disappeared, and its whereabouts are unknown to this day."
"Has this kind of thing ever happened in this world? It seems that killing people and seizing treasures is really the nature of an immortal cultivator." Xiao Hua couldn't help but shook his head when he heard this.
"That's not necessarily the case. Although cultivating an immortal is an act that defies heaven, once you become an immortal, you will have no desires or pursuits, so there is no need to talk about nature. It's just that there is a process of cultivating from a mortal to an immortal. Since you are still a mortal, you will inevitably have the ugliness of human nature. "
"Hey, I didn't expect Senior Fangxin to have such a profound understanding," Xiao Hua flattered him.
"Hmph, do you think all monks are as greedy and treacherous as you?" Nalan Fangxin rolled her eyes at Xiao Hua.
"Hey, Senior Fangxin, I'm just praising you, why are you talking about me again? Why am I greedy and treacherous?"
Xiao Hua was a little depressed, why did this flattery hit the horse's leg.
"Aren't you greedy and treacherous? Tell yourself, how much benefit has the Mighty Sect given you over the years, and what have you done for the Mighty Sect? You still have the nerve to say it." Nalan Fangxin rolled her eyes at Xiao Hua again.
"No, hey, you have to make this clear. What's wrong with me? I haven't done anything in the past few years."
Xiao Hua was a little anxious. You can't take advantage of this shit basin. He has been practicing in the past few years and has not done anything bad.
"It's because you haven't done anything. You can tell yourself. You've been here in the Mighty Sect for eight years. Not only did we give you the best infant cave, but we also gave you spirit-quenching wine and high-level skills."
"But you just brought back the news that there are monsters in Black Spirit Peak and the beast tide has retreated, or you were entrusted by my father. A person like you who can only get in but not get out, isn't it considered greedy and treacherous?"
"Ah, no, it's not the same. The spirit-tempering wine is because I brought the news, the high-level skills are because my access control is useful to you, and the Yingqi Cave is because I promised to make elixirs for you, but now I am greedy and treacherous?"
"Yes, your access control is useful to us, but we, the Nalan people, are grateful and don't want to take advantage of you, so we use high-level skills to exchange it with you. If we don't tell you and just take it away, what can you do?"
"But you, you always insist on conditions and never suffer losses. Not only did you deceive me into taking the Cloud Swallowing Palm, but you also deceived me into teaching you the art of speeding and controlling the wind, and asked you to help refine some elixirs and use the demon elixir to evade it. You If this isn’t greed and treachery, what is it?”
"What do you mean you cheated me out of the Cloud Swallowing Palm? I spent my points in exchange for that. You taught me the Speedy Wind Controlling Technique because you thought I was slow to remember it. As for the Demon Pill, you said I owed my practice points. I just couldn't It is repayment and giving.”
Xiao Hua was anxious again. Why did he go back to these things for a long time, and this time he became greedy and treacherous?
