For Feng Yu, A Qing's departure did affect his emotions to some extent, but he was not the kind of person who was completely immersed in the past and couldn't extricate himself. What's more, he also knew that A Qing was going to leave this time. Going is not just for fun, but to improve your strength as much as possible. Therefore, in just one day, he completely got over the reluctance of Ah Qing's departure and started to practice the next step. He did not want to be left far behind by Ah Qing in the future.
After this period of hard training, although the Jade Scale Arm has still not reached Feng Yu's most ideal level, his faintly increased cultivation has allowed him to feel the path of the eighth path of energy in his body. , this is something that makes him extremely happy these days. Steady practice is what he wants.
"Uncle Niu, now I can sense the traces of the eighth path, but this one makes me feel a little different from the previous seven paths, and I don't know why."
Feng Yu's whole body was bathed in a wooden barrel that exuded red light. There was a faint scorching temperature in it, rendering his body red. There seemed to be snake-shaped energy constantly swimming around his body. . Between the movements of the thin body, there is also extremely violent power surging.
Uncle Niu, who was sitting on the stone bench beside him, slowly opened his eyes, looked at Feng Yu's appearance, and said: "The eighth level of Tao Qi is the last level of the Tao Qi realm, and it is an important step throughout the entire cultivation process. The key point is to inherit the foundation of cultivation at the bottom and the Daoxuan transformation at the top."
"The reason why you felt that the eighth path of qi was different from the first seven was because the eighth path of qi has two forms, namely, death qi and vitality."
Feng Yu's pupils shrank, and he felt an unusual meaning in Uncle Niu's words. He never thought that this eighth path of Qi had such strange distinctions. This might be what he felt was wrong before. The source is right there.
Uncle Niu glanced at Feng Yu faintly, and then said: "This death energy and vitality are the key indicators to measure whether a person can practice to break through the Gen Dao realm. The Gen Dao realm is the second realm after entering the Xuan realm. The strength of the four cultivation realms, even if you look at the entire Yangguan domain, can be ranked at the second-rate level. And if you want to break through this realm, you need to extract the remaining traces of Dao in the body and turn it into Dao Qi , and finally merged into the endless profound energy in the body."
Feng Yu frowned and asked with some confusion: "Why is it the last trace of Dao? Is it true that when you enter the second realm of Xuan, you have to abandon Dao and turn to practice Xuan?"
Uncle Niu looked calm. He looked at the distant sky, wondering what he was thinking. After a while, he nodded slightly and said: "Yes, Tao Qi is the beginning of cultivation. Anyone who starts to practice must first understand the principles of heaven and earth. Only when all the eight Dao Qi are condensed can we have the opportunity to carry out subsequent cultivation. However, do you know that in this world today, the spiritual energy is empty, the Dao Qi is declining, and the laws are incomplete. Using Dao Qi as a carrier, it is difficult to support and continue. As another kind of carrying body, Xuan Qi is far more comprehensive than Tao Qi and is the key factor that attracts many people to specialize in Xuan Li, because Xuan Qi can enable them to achieve higher achievements in the end. And this is the reason for the existence of the second realm of the Mysterious Realm.
"The Gen Dao realm, in a sense, exists as an auxiliary realm. It will completely erase the traces of Dao left when a person first senses Dao Qi, and then fully enter the realm of Xuan. Practice.
"As for the difference between dead energy and vital energy mentioned before, it is the key to distinguish whether a person can accurately perceive the location of the hidden Dao mark in the body when he is about to break through the Gen Dao realm."
Feng Yu rubbed his chin, but he didn't expect that this being, the last one in his cognition, would have such an origin and role.
Then he frowned slightly and asked again: "But how can I judge whether the last path I cultivated is vital energy?"
Uncle Niu glanced at him and said: "It's very simple. If it is alive, it will show a colorless and constantly changing state."
"Colorless form and different states..."
Hearing this, Feng Yu also murmured thoughtfully.
In the following time, apart from occasionally going to the back mountain to hunt some ferocious beasts, Feng Yu spent most of his time on cultivation. Although the eighth qi was induced, it was still unable to break out of the body and could not Really cohesive. However, Feng Yu is not anxious about this at all, because he knows that the difficulty of condensing the eighth path of Dao Qi is the most difficult step since his cultivation. Only by polishing it many times can he find an opportunity in countless experiences. .
While Feng Yu was practicing tirelessly, several days passed in the outside world.
…………
Outside, in a valley.
There is an endless gray-black mist here, the air is filled with a pungent and unpleasant smell, and everything as far as the field of vision is filled with miasma, making it difficult to breathe. Even the spiritual energy was shrouded in a heart-stopping aura of death.
Occasionally, some ferocious beasts appeared, but in just a few breaths, the desperately running footsteps gradually stopped amidst the pervasive poisonous gas around them, and then fell down with a painful hissing sound, completely losing their breath.
However, in such a terrifying and gloomy place, several figures appeared at this moment. All of these figures were masked, but the half of their faces that were vaguely exposed revealed a gloomy and murderous aura. The blood-colored pupils seemed to make people shudder as long as they took a look at them, as if they were falling into the sky. The eternal abyss.
The poisonous gas around them was constantly eroding towards them, but when they were only half a foot away from them, it all turned into white smoke and dissipated amidst bursts of hisses, leaving even their clothes untouched. .
"How is the investigation going on that hidden land?"
Among the people, the figure in the middle spoke calmly, and the unpleasant sound like frost spread in this small open space. Wherever it passed, even the space was rippled.
"After several months of searching, we found a desert area ahead. There is a mysterious charm that does not belong here. It must be related to the place adults talk about."
The figure on the right also spoke.
"Didn't we go to that area a few years ago? But we didn't seem to detect any strange aura at that time."
Similarly, there are voices of doubt one after another.
"Shut up, you bunch of losers!"
The figure in the center shouted, with deep resentment and annoyance in his words. The scene from that year appeared in his mind, and his body trembled violently because of regret.
Listening to the thunder-like roar, the surrounding area instantly became silent.
"Let me tell you, if you hadn't made mistakes in judgment due to your cleverness back then, how could I have ended up like this? Why would I still have the nerve to mention this to me now?! The face of the world has been completely humiliated by you!"
But the man seemed to be touched by the emotions deep in his heart, so he roared like crazy.
"Let me tell you, the recruitment meeting for the five major families has begun. It is said that there are many dark horses in this session. If we can't find the hidden place before they end, and hold that person accountable, this The seven ghosts in the sky, everyone should just stop doing this!"
He took a deep breath and tried to adjust his emotions, but the coldness in his eyes and "that person" in his mouth were like a sharp sword, piercing into the hearts of the other people, making them His body was shaking violently.
"Walk!"
…………
Boom!
Muffled thunder suddenly came from the distant sky, and a dazzling white light suddenly appeared, illuminating the entire land as if it were daytime, but the next moment it disappeared with the deafening sound of explosions. At the same time, a cold breath fell, and all the heat in the air was consumed at this moment, replaced by bursts of refreshing moisture. The dense mist condensed rapidly in the air, making people feel quite refreshing.
On a circular stone platform, a thin figure sat cross-legged. He closed his eyes tightly, and seven rays of extremely solid Tao Qi were swirling around him, and the faint fluctuations they emitted became increasingly transcendent and mysterious.
On his chest, there was a clear trace, as if a flow of air was surging, and the trajectory it traveled seemed obscure and complicated, vaguely filled with powerful fluctuations that were different from the previous seven channels of Tao Qi.
"Now the induction of this eighth Dao Qi has become stronger and stronger. I can even easily detect its shape and trajectory. I think that in five days at most, I can try to condense it directly... "
Feng Yu was bathing in the cool raindrops in the sky, feeling the heat disappear at this moment, and said to himself.
He has been practicing to condense the Eighth Dao Qi for more than ten days. Although it is extremely boring day after day, he is not impatient at all, even if there are some helpful people in the back mountain. He has never thought of using those elixirs to practice, because he understands how crucial the eighth path of Qi is. As Uncle Niu said that day, more than 50% of people will condense death energy, and most of them will choose to use elixirs to assist their cultivation, which is basically equivalent to giving up their cultivation after the Gen Dao realm. Although the spiritual root elixir is very effective, it cannot be eaten completely. If you use the elixir too much, you will become resistant to it. Over time, even your own foundation and feet will be gradually weakened. Erosion makes it difficult to move forward in the end. What he wants from Feng Yu is not the so-called death energy, but the living energy that can truly lead him to break through the realm of Gen Dao!
Although Gen Dao Realm is already able to set foot in the second-rate ranks in this Yangguan Domain, Feng Yu has a vague feeling that his future achievements may not stop at Gen Dao Realm, with a more powerful ranks and a broader world. He really wanted to see the world.
What prompted him to have the above goals was another idea buried deep in his heart, which was to find his parents whom he had not seen for more than ten years. He asked Uncle Niu about his parents more than once, but the latter always gave them vague information and never gave him a complete and clear explanation. He only vaguely felt that their origins were quite extraordinary. And this also further stimulated his desire to find his parents. Perhaps only the vast outside world could hold clues about his parents. He is also willing to practice for this until he is able to do this.
