At this time, Tianjihong also recalled the practice of martial arts mentioned by his father when he was young. In fact, for monks, the more talented and intelligent a genius is like Tianjihong, the earlier he can start the process of opening up martial arts. For Tianjiao who have a more solid foundation of cultivation and more powerful spiritual power, it is ten times and a hundred times easier for ordinary people to use their spiritual power to open up martial arts. Even people like Tianjihong can be released from martial arts cultivation in the Kaiyuan realm. There are also many peerless geniuses. This is also one of the reasons why those true disciples of large sects can easily defeat opponents of the same level.
With his father's previous reminder, Tianjihong himself is also very aware of the role of martial arts cultivation. A few days ago, he and his brother saw a copy of "Shura Heart Technique" left by his father and mother in the cellar, which is enough for such a level. For techniques that reach the ground level, the requirements for martial arts cultivation are already extremely demanding. This is also one of the reasons why many ordinary people have no chance to practice high-level skills in their lives. For these casual cultivators with no talent or background, even if they have accumulated enough cultivation over time to be able to practice high-level skills, they still have no chance to practice high-level skills. If one's martial arteries have not been opened up to the standard of cultivation, one will also face the danger of backlash from one's martial arts.
But now Tianjihong, who is only at the Kaiyuan realm, has been able to vaguely perceive the bottleneck caused by the five major martial arteries of the human body as the spiritual power in his body becomes saturated. After thinking for a moment, Tian Jihong chose to follow his master's instructions and not continue to improve his cultivation. He understood that although his foundation was already quite solid at this time, there was still room for improvement in this realm, and his soul power The practice has just started, and the warrior soul is not yet very proficient in the use of spiritual power and soul power. This is not the best time to think about continuing to improve the spiritual power to impact the first martial vein.
So Tianjihong also turned his attention to the [Wraith Art] spread out in front of him. After browsing the contents, he realized that as the core essence of the Zhonghai Demon Sect, the Ghost Art itself is also an internal document of the Tongmo Sect. The techniques practiced complement each other and can be said to be highly bound. Only within the Demonic Movement Sect can the demonic energy be generated in the spiritual energy, which can be further combined with the methods described in the Soul Art to practice.
"The sky and the earth are vast and last for thousands of years. The struggle between gods and demons has turned the sky and the earth into two poles. Demons are not demons. Only by inserting the demonic energy into the body and converting it into the netherworld can one quench his breath and concentrate his mind, reaching the peak of the soul..."
According to the records in the Soul Art, thousands of years ago, a supreme being known as the "Demon God" was born in the Douwu Continent. Wherever it passed, life was reduced to ashes and corpses were everywhere. All the sects in the post-war martial arts world united with all their strength to kill this demon. After paying the price of almost dying together, in the end, the evil did not suppress the good and the continent was at peace.
However, the inheritance left by the demon has been spread all over the continent since then. According to legend, there are still demonic inheritance hidden by this demon that have not been discovered in the continent. The most well-known among them is the force that was born as the predecessor of the Demon Sect in the Zhonghai region. The latter combines and refers to the skills practiced by the demon god to create a magical skill that is unparalleled in the world at the same time. The people who practice this skill can almost reach the level of being able to defeat the invincible opponents in the world. This is also the case. A group of people gathered together to find the Tianwu boundary at the core of the Zhonghai region and opened up the largest town in Zhonghai [Tianwu Holy Capital].
But what is unexpected is that all those who later practiced the skills taught by the demon god, when they broke through the bottlenecks in their practice and understood the highest realm of the skills, all of them would have the demonic energy backfired in their brains, and they would inevitably fall into the devil's path and become A walking corpse that only knows how to kill. Such a group of terrifyingly powerful beings turned into a nightmare on the continent at that time, and the concept of the devil purging the monks on the continent was passed down in the hands of this group of people.
According to the records in the book, it was unknown who secretly took action in the Zhonghai region and finally put an end to this second disaster. The force formed by this group of people was obviously condemned and threatened by various sects on the continent and eventually collapsed. But in the following decades, Zhonghai practitioners were unwilling to lose their inheritance. After absorbing the lessons of their predecessors, they simplified the previously profound demon skills. Although the power was reduced, they also avoided facing demonic energy in the later stages of practice. Risk of erosion.
Then the [Zhonghai Demon Sect] was born. Compared with the previous Zhonghai monks who devoted themselves to studying the essence of the Demon God's Kung Fu, the Demon Sect took a different approach and turned to the cultivation of the soul, mainly focusing on the Ghost Art, supplemented by external sword techniques. , founded such a behemoth in Zhonghai that although it started with demonic energy, it was not an evil sect.
And as Nie Qian mentioned before, the mystery of this Soul Secret Technique is no less than that of the technique left by the demon god, otherwise it would not be able to achieve the miraculous effect of restricting the entry of demonic energy into the body. According to the records in the book, the cultivation of this Ghost Soul Technique has almost stringent requirements for the cultivation realm of the cultivator. Each breakthrough in the ninth level of Ghost Soul Art corresponds to one or two realms of spiritual power cultivation. Since the founding of the Demon Sect, no one has ever been able to break through this restriction and comprehend the higher-level Ghost Art at a lower level.
Naturally, Tianjihong was not confident that an outsider like himself could break this historical restraint, so he cautiously followed the instructions in the book and began to study the most simple methods of the first level of the ghost. With Tian Jihong's character, of course he knows that those who don't succeed can't do it. Even though the book says that the power of the Nether Soul Art becomes more and more terrifying as you practice it to a later stage, the improvement of each level of the Nether Soul Art not only relies on The improvement of spiritual power cultivation also requires the integration and mastery of the techniques acquired in the previous stages as the foundation. This is why to this day, there are very few people who can understand the ninth level of the ghost soul in the hundreds of years since the establishment of the Demon Sect.
After spending nearly an hour studying it, Tianjihong finally memorized the first-level formula of the ghost soul firmly in his heart, and roughly combined it with the warrior soul above his dantian to run the formula again. It's a pity that the time is short at this time, and because I have not practiced the basic skills of the Demon Sect that can cultivate demonic energy, it obviously does not have a very obvious effect on the improvement of soul power.
Tianjihong is not discouraged. There are also some rough records in this Nether Soul Technique about the [Wraith Soul Mental Technique] that is an introduction to the Demon Sect. Although it cannot be practiced as a complete mental technique to improve spiritual power, it is as a part of the Nether Soul Technique. It was enough for Yinzi to use his demonic energy. Tianjihong was confident that within a week, he would be able to become familiar with the important meaning of this ghost.
What made Tianjihong wake up from his practice was the rising sun rising over the eastern sea level. Although it was not yet midnight, the rising sun in summer had already brought a touch of heat to the unobstructed hut in the wilderness. At this time, Tian Jihong, who had awakened from practice, changed his tiredness from running around all day yesterday. He was full of energy and recalled his plans for today.
"It seems that one night's practice has been very fruitful, not bad!" Li Ming, who had already prepared to leave in advance, came over and obviously noticed Tianjihong's full state and more stable aura, "Now you kid is considered The cultivation level of [Early Kaiyuan Realm] has truly been established, and the soul power cultivation has officially started, and it is only one step away from the initial [Entry] realm."
"Oh? Does the cultivation of soul power also have realms? Why haven't I heard Master mention it before?" Tianjihong couldn't help but be stunned.
"Haha, it can indeed be said that, but the division of soul power is not based on the level of monks' soul power. The more recognized method of differentiation among monks is based on the degree of concentration of their own soul power, and how far they can achieve it in practice or actual combat. It’s based on different effects.” Li Ming replied.
"For example, what is required for this entry level is that in addition to having a complete soul power method, you must also condense real soul power through your own practice or soul fighting, and be able to cast it to a distance of ten meters away from the whole body. It is considered to be up to standard. There are not many divisions in the realm of soul power, which results in the gap between different realms being like a chasm. Like Master, I have not put much effort into the cultivation of soul power, and now I have just started to get started. It’s just the [Enter Micro Realm] after the realm.”
"What needs to be achieved at the level of entering the subtle realm is to be able to detect many details of the things around you through your own soul consciousness, just like observing every plant and tree under a magnified mirror. In actual combat, you have the ability to be almost unpredictable. Whenever your opponent As soon as the body turns around or a certain part of the body gathers spiritual power, the monks who have entered the subtle realm of soul power can immediately detect it and make corresponding preparations in advance."
Tianjihong also nodded to express his understanding. He has had several actual combat experiences. Of course, he can hear the huge advantages that such abilities can bring to the showdown. You must know that in a life-and-death showdown, even a moment's hesitation will lead to serious consequences. The consequences would be disastrous, and he coveted the ability to sense his opponent's actions first.
"As for the realm after entering the subtle realm, I am only limited to hearing about it, such as the subsequent vastness, integration, climbing, etc. Moreover, I also mentioned before that the division of this soul power realm is related to the level of the monk's own soul power. It cannot be confused. Many masters who have never paid attention to soul power cultivation may still be at the entry level when their spiritual power and soul power cultivation have reached a very high level. Such characters are indeed far inferior in actual combat. An opponent with the same cultivation level but a higher level of soul power does not mean that such a person's soul power perception will be weak. You still cannot be careless and underestimate the enemy, do you understand?" Li Ming warned.
"Disciple, I remember. Thank you Master for clarifying my doubts." Tian Jihong couldn't help but think of the duel between the Yu Sect youth and Bai Xing'er in Dongsheng Town. It was obvious that when the two people's cultivation levels were not much different, apart from the former In addition to the huge advantage that Fighting Soul has, its soul power realm is obviously a level higher than that of Bai Xing'er, and the actual combat results are as close to crushing as he can see.
"By the way, my master is about to leave to visit the lair of the bandits again to see if we can find out the traces of how many people escaped. Didn't you say yesterday that you were going to inform Shopkeeper Lin not to go to Dongsheng Town? If it's too late, I'm afraid it will be too late." Li Ming said suddenly.
