Cheng Ling originally understood eight of the ten major artistic conceptions of Taoism: time, space, heaven, earth, life, death, yin, yang, light, and darkness, but he still had no clue about the remaining two: heaven and earth.
However, during the nearly sixty-year experience of becoming a mortal, he lost his spiritual consciousness and immortality. Just like a mortal, he could perceive everything in the world, including the yin and yang of heaven and earth, life, old age, illness and death, and could capture the faintest traces.
So, why is the greatest truth in this world? Regardless of whether they are monks or mortals, they are all born from the mother's womb and born naked until the end of their lives. The only difference is that the lifespan of monks is much longer than that of mortals.
The perception of the artistic conception of heaven and earth made Cheng Ling's sea of consciousness roar, as if all things were born at the beginning of the world. However, these "things" were not the flowers, birds, insects, fish and other creatures that he usually saw, but irregular lines.
These lines come together from all directions. They seem messy and without any rules, but they seem to be weaving a large net, and each thread contains a ray of heaven.
"Is this the so-called Three Thousand Avenues? Look at the thickest threads, which seem to be time, space, heaven and earth, life and death, yin and yang, light and darkness, and those slightly thinner ones are the five elements. As for the countless remaining ones, They are all kinds of heavenly ways, the way of wind, the way of clouds, the way of flowers, the way of blood, the way of tea...etc."
"They look vague, but they actually exist. They appear in the sea of consciousness with their own unique laws. If they can be clearer, maybe I can fully grasp these avenues..."
Just as he was thinking in his mind, suddenly, a golden light appeared in the originally dark and chaotic depths of the sea of consciousness. The golden light was very weak, like a candle in the wind. It seemed that just a wisp of breeze could blow it out, but right here At this moment, the three spiritual hearts hanging in the sea of consciousness suddenly burst out with dazzling light.
This light passed by in an instant, not even a breath, like a meteor streaking across the sky, but after that, the dry spiritual world seemed to be injected with new life, and strands and strands of light blue spiritual power were bred from it. , although small, but continuous.
These mental powers are like fire fuel. Once they appear, the golden light in the depths of the sea of consciousness suddenly seems to be replenished with energy. It flashes and grows stronger and spreads around the sea of consciousness...
"Boom..."
Cheng Ling's body collided again, and both the golden dragon and the gray clouds collapsed. The gray clouds completely collapsed and fell like gray snowflakes. The clouds that originally shrouded the sky became thinner and slowly dispersed. go.
And the golden light dragon also shattered after letting out its last roar, turning into little bits of golden light. However, it did not scatter away. Instead, it condensed back together and was injected into Cheng Ling's body.
"Click~!"
Just as Cheng Ling was completely immersed in this change, the golden light that was constantly gathering turned into a golden lightning and hit his Dantian heavily.
Poof!
Cheng Ling couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, but there was a trace of ecstasy on his face. Just when the golden lightning struck his dantian, he vaguely felt that there seemed to be a crack in the originally completely closed space in the body...
"The understanding of the rules of heaven actually made my closed dantian space loosen a little, and with the help of the power of the golden page, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Taking advantage of this opportunity, a burst of energy breaks through the blockade."
Cheng Ling made up his mind, and memories suddenly started in his mind.
He looked up at the sky and seemed to have completely forgotten everything happening around him. At this moment, his eyes were extremely bright. This kind of brightness had never appeared in his eyes before. It was a gaze that could penetrate people's hearts and see through their essence.
"The artistic conception of heaven and earth, looking up is the sky, looking down is the earth. When the heaven and the earth first open, they are like two parallel lines that can never overlap..."
"The artistic conception of life and death, that's how it is... Just like the other shore, judgment, and reincarnation, these things in this world can be mastered if I want to."
"The artistic conception of yin and yang, my left hand is yin, my right hand is yang, the Tao is divided into yin and yang, everything follows my heart..."
"The artistic conception of light and darkness, the two poles of light and darkness, are mutually exclusive but can also complement each other. Where there is light, there must be darkness. On the contrary, although darkness is overbearing, it cannot completely cover the light..."
"Time..., like the long river of history, is eternal. It is equal to everyone and is the foundation of any material movement and energy transfer..."
"Space... is three-dimensional and an abstract concept, but its existence can be truly felt. The composition of people and things cannot leave space..."
"The Five Elements... encompass all things in the world, all in one..."
The more enlightened he became, the brighter Cheng Ling's eyes became. On the mountain peak, two people and one tiger stared blankly at everything in front of them, as if they had forgotten their grudges and entanglements with each other and fell into confusion...
I don't know how long it took, but Cheng Ling finally moved. He called his right hand forward, and suddenly the clouds in the sky moved and condensed towards his hand. In the blink of an eye, a cloud ball the size of a fist appeared on the palm of his hand. .
This cloud ball is filled with electric light.
Feeling the huge power inside the cloud ball, Cheng Ling took a deep breath.
Although the power in this cloud ball is not enough to destroy the sky and the earth, you can feel its power, as if it will explode as soon as it is touched. Even as an immortal emperor, he does not dare to bear it easily.
Perhaps due to the impact of this energy, Chu Tian and Xiao Bai suddenly woke up and looked at Cheng Ling's palm.
Cheng Ling took a deep breath and didn't understand their thoughts at all. The next moment, the cloud ball spun rapidly, and huge energy slowly poured into the veins from the palm of his hand. The originally blocked tendons in the body suddenly seemed to be hit by a powerful current, and the stagnation continued to be unblocked. One...two...one acupoint...two acupoints ...
And as the tendons are dredged, they naturally begin to move around the world. The dried tendons are like encountering sweet rain, constantly nourishing and broadening. The refined immortal energy becomes larger and larger, and finally, like a tidal wave, it continues to impact. Blocked Dantian.
This is a unique situation. Even the ancestor of the Piao Miao Snow Sect who created the Qing Dao technique cannot imagine that someone can achieve the perfection of the ten artistic conceptions by virtue of their understanding of the way of heaven after turning into a mortal for a period of time, and finally produce The sudden change re-condensed the immortal essence, like a phoenix rising from the ashes and reborn from the ashes.
This is actually caused by a variety of factors. First of all, Yun Jingshan's performance of the Love-cutting Dao was not satisfactory. As Cheng Ling had speculated before, his love was not with Yun Jingshan, but only regarded her as Yun Jingwen. a substitute for.
Therefore, what the other party killed was only Yun Jingshan's own "love", or in other words, a dream she created herself.
Secondly, there are indeed similarities between the Qing Dao and the Twin Sect techniques, but the origin cannot be tested. By coincidence, Cheng Ling took the lead in comprehending the Twin Sect's techniques before he accepted the Qing Dao. This gave him another chance of survival, and he did not die from the Qing Dao in the end.
The most important thing is that he transformed into a mortal in a short period of time, achieved great enlightenment, and comprehended the ten most difficult artistic conceptions in the world in one fell swoop.
What is the Way of Heaven... Cheng Ling's previous understanding was that the Way of Heaven is a law, like other laws, running between heaven and earth, just like the laws among mortals.
No one can replace the way of heaven, and cultivators can only go against the will of heaven and get out of the control of the way of heaven. Few people think that they can replace or control the way of heaven.
But now, Cheng Ling's understanding of the way of heaven has undergone a subtle change.
The way of heaven is not unstoppable, at least the golden pages on his body can block it. This is a mystery. Where does the golden page come from and why it can compete with the way of heaven in the fairy world? With his current understanding, he cannot fully understand it.
Maybe one day, when I break out of this prison of heaven and earth, I can understand the answer.
He couldn't help but spread the pores all over his body, absorbing the immortal energy around him with all his strength. The rich immortal energy surged crazily and penetrated into Cheng Ling's body. His body was like a huge whirlpool, constantly sucking in and pulling in the surrounding immortal energy. Xianyuan.
Gradually, around him, one could almost see with the naked eye, milky white breath, almost connected to his body in straight lines, being absorbed crazily.
Under the constant impact of waves of immortal energy, Cheng Ling's dantian made bursts of crackling sounds. The cracks that had originally occurred became larger and larger, and the scene in the dantian space was already vaguely visible.
But it is a pity that the place where he is currently is not a place rich in immortal energy. At best, it is just a steep mountain range. Without the immortal crystal veins, almost all the remaining immortal essence within a radius of thousands of miles has been absorbed. Without new spiritual sources to replenish it, the unsealing of the space in the body will come to an abrupt end.
Cheng Ling frowned, and after continuously circulating the immortal energy in his body for a week, he did not launch an attack, but moved it again. The impact of refining the immortal energy produced by a large Zhoutian transfer was not great, so he just thought of a way to accumulate all the immortal energy, and when it reached the limit, he would launch a fatal blow.
As it rotates in circles, the energy air mass continues to increase, from the size of a rice grain to the size of an egg, and then to the size of a fist...
At this time, the capacity of the tendons has reached its limit. Such a huge energy ball is transported in the body, like a small mouse drilling, and it expands. The tendons that have not been fully restored once again produce a trace of energy. Wire cracks.
A layer of blood energy filled the outside of his body, and even the late eighth-level spiritual body felt it was unbearable. At the critical moment, the murderous aura that originally filled his body took effect. It was like a layer of enchantment, completely sealing the energy in the body. , to avoid leaking out.
Finally, after reaching the limit, Cheng Ling no longer hesitated, mobilized the energy ball, and rushed towards the Dantian space with all his strength.
"Boom~!"
An even stronger loud noise completely opened a gap in the space inside his body. Cheng Ling didn't even care about the blood spurting out. With a thought, he threw out all the treasures and fairy crystals in the space inside his body, almost covering it. The entire mountain top.
The fairy crystals that had just been thrown out continued to shatter, completely collapsed, and turned into piles of powder, which piled up on the ground to form a hill.
The fragmentation of these immortal crystals finally provided Cheng Ling with sufficient spiritual source. The vortex swept over and spread like a tornado to ten miles, a hundred miles, a thousand miles...
His cultivation level also recovered rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. From the Qi refining stage to the foundation building stage, golden elixir, Nascent Soul, spirit transformation, distraction... In the end, there was a roar in the entire Dantian space, completely Unblock!
ps: The lockdown has finally been lifted. I am actually writing this chapter out of emotion. The epidemic prevention situation is extremely severe. I was transferred to the front line today. I deeply feel the hardships of anti-epidemic workers. I hope that with Cheng Ling’s rebirth, our The anti-epidemic battle can also end as soon as possible...
