There are many small beasts in the mountains, but their grades are very low. None of them are above level four, and they all run away when they encounter Zhou Yang.
After more than an hour, with the scorching sun in the sky, Zhou Yang arrived halfway up the mountain. In the process, he didn't see anyone. He didn't know if those people were walking fast or they had gone elsewhere.
Zhou Yang felt a little tired, so he stopped, looked around, and used his spiritual consciousness to investigate. After making sure that there was no danger, he found a large stone plate and sat down.
He took out a bottle of wine from his storage bag and drank three sips from mouth to mouth. Then he closed his eyes comfortably and greedily sucked in the rich spiritual energy in the secret realm.
The deputy sect leader did not specify how long the trial in the secret realm would take, and Meng Dong and Cui Kai did not know this either. However, in order to improve one's cultivation in this extremely wide range of secret realms, a large number of treasures must be found. It is estimated that The time will not be too short, it should be a few months.
Although Zhou Yang didn't say it clearly to everyone, his meaning was already clear. He had to do three things: improving his cultivation, hunting for treasures, and avoiding dangers. Moreover, the latter two things are based on the first one. If you don't have the strength, what's the point of hunting for treasures? Any dangers that can be avoided are all a joke.
Therefore, improving one's cultivation level is the most important thing. Without strength, there is nothing. Moreover, before the cultivation level is improved, the more treasures found, the more dangerous it will be.
Zhou Yang said this to others, and of course he thought so too.
However, it is not so easy to improve your cultivation level. This time it is not just a matter of energy accumulation. Relying on spiritual stones and elixirs alone is not enough. The key is to understand the way of heaven.
It is said that it is very easy to break through the shackles of Tianyuan in the secret realm, but he has been in for several hours, but he has no intention of understanding the way of heaven.
Are my qualifications inferior to others? He was somewhat doubtful of those rumors.
The so-called way of heaven, and what specific things need to be understood, have been divided among practitioners since ancient times.
But the most mainstream view is to understand the five elements and the heavenly ways derived from them, such as wind, thunder, ice and other attributes.
However, as he read more and more classics, he discovered that the way of heaven is not just these. Not only is it not that, but it is much more than these.
It can be said that the way of heaven is all-encompassing and ubiquitous. All natural phenomena are the way of heaven. All living things and even dead things are also the way of heaven. Even all behaviors of living creatures can be said to be caused by the way of heaven.
Therefore, cultivators have many ways of understanding the way of heaven. In addition to the five elements and the mainstream attributes of wind, thunder and ice, they can also understand light, electricity, darkness, life, death, illusion, yin, yang, the future, the past, etc.
Understanding this means that there are countless more paths to enlightenment and countless more possibilities.
But everything has advantages and disadvantages. The more you understand, the more choices you have. The more choices you have, the harder it is to understand, and the stronger your sense of awe towards the way of heaven becomes.
Some cultivators are born with the attribute of wood. When they break through to the Kaiyuan realm, their first choice is to understand the properties of wood, but it has no effect. Their state of mind has been unable to break through to the Tianyuan level.
But since he had more choices, he tried to understand other attributes, such as water and fire.
Because water generates wood, and wood generates fire, and if we cannot understand that wood belongs to heaven, then our emotions are related to the attributes of wood. However, after realizing it for a while, I still haven’t made a breakthrough for a long time.
Although this path is still blocked, there are countless other paths, such as extending it further and then understanding the attributes related to water and fire.
If you continue to comprehend this way, you may not be able to break through the realm of Tianyuan even if your life span is exhausted.
This is just a possibility, but there are many spiritual peak cultivators who cannot break through the Tianyuan realm in their lifetime, but it has something to do with this.
Of course, with such poor qualifications, you won't be able to break through even if you have infinite lifespan.
In fact, the understanding of Tianyuan Realm is only superficial. To put it nicely, it means understanding various rules. In fact, it is just a preliminary understanding of some simple laws, let alone the laws of heaven and earth.
Only after reaching the golden elixir can one be able to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth, and even only by reaching the divine realm can one truly comprehend the laws of heaven and earth.
However, after breaking through to the Tianyuan realm through understanding the way of heaven, the cultivator has a deeper understanding of a certain attribute or attributes, and has mastered certain laws to some extent.
These laws can be applied in practice. For example, if they are added to the use of spiritual power, the power of the spiritual power will be greatly increased. It can also be said that a qualitative change has occurred. Therefore, after breaking through to the Tianyuan realm, the spiritual power will undergo a qualitative change. Became mana.
Since entering the peak of Lingtai, Zhou Yang has been understanding the properties of fire and looking for some rules and regulations in the use of fire.
He had some insights before, not only about tangible fire, but also about the fire of divine consciousness, but it was not deep enough, not even superficial.
Although his spiritual power also has the attribute of fire, he has not yet figured out how to turn the fire attribute in his spiritual power into attack power, and how to play the role of blessing and amplification. Therefore, his spiritual power is still spiritual power. It has not been converted into mana, so there is no sign of breakthrough at all.
Of course, he can also feel metal. Metal is his essential attribute. Logically speaking, it should be relatively simple to feel it. However, psychologically, he always puts the fire attribute first, and subconsciously realizes that in order to understand it, he must first understand the fire attribute and the heavenly way.
It is very important to follow your heart, it will get twice the result with half the effort. Going against your heart will do the opposite, and you will end up getting twice the result with half the effort, or at least it will be bumpy.
Now that he has established his goal, he will naturally insist on Qingshan and not relax, and move forward unstoppably to feel the Fire Heavenly Way.
In fact, he never stopped using fire.
From the early stage of the spiritual platform, every time he broke through a level, he would use the simplest and most basic fire technique.
And every time he breaks through, the flames he emits will become larger and more powerful.
In fact, this is also a rule. As your cultivation improves, your understanding of fire will also increase, and the power of flames will naturally increase.
Moreover, he also felt that due to ancient alchemy or some special reason, his fire technique should be far better than those of the same level.
In his expectation, after he breaks through the Tianyuan realm, the fire spell will at least reach the power of the intermediate fire spirit talisman, or even be stronger.
In the real world of cultivation, not to mention the Tianyuan realm, even when it comes to the Lingtai realm, few cultivators use fire spells to fight against enemies anymore, because the power is too weak.
This Taoist technique only plays a supporting role. If people are not specializing in elixir refining or weapon refining, people will not pay special attention to this technique.
After breaking through to the golden elixir realm, elixir fire will naturally be produced in the body, and the power of elixir fire will be much greater.
However, no one who is a master of the golden elixir uses elixir fire against the enemy. Its main function is to assist, either in refining elixirs, refining weapons, or melting objects. Even those with a fire-type physique will not pay much attention to the flames generated in the body if they do not have powerful fire-type Taoism.
But Zhou Yang is different, and for some unknown reason, he has a special liking for the flame technique and has been using it all the time.
During the competition at the Tianxing Sect, he also relied on this technique and the power of the cloud shuttle to successfully deflect the attack of Cheng Tiehe's beast soul flag.
After that, he has been committed to using fire magic to fight against the enemy. Until finally, the power of fire in his consciousness can also attack the enemy, and the sprout of soul fire has also been produced. All these have helped him understand the fire attribute. Heaven provided powerful help.
"Every cultivator can practice flame technique. The principle of this technique is to use the energy, spiritual power or mana along a specific route to circulate through one's own meridians and acupuncture points, and finally produce flames in one's body, or to Use it against the enemy or for other purposes.
In other words, flames are transformed from elemental power, spiritual power or magic power through practice. It's just that due to personal differences and different cultivation levels, the size, strength and power of the flames transformed by the three powers are different, and those with fire attributes are stronger. Although the strengths and weaknesses are different, they can all be transformed.
From this point of view, every practitioner can understand the laws or rules, or even laws, of the fire attribute. "
While thinking deeply, a light flashed in Zhou Yang's mind, as if he had some enlightenment.
Perhaps you can start with the most basic fire technique to understand the rules of fire. Moreover, his physique is of fire attribute, which gives him a natural advantage.
Zhou Yang opened his eyes suddenly, silently recited the mantra of the fire technique, his spiritual power circulated rapidly, and then he raised his hand and shot out a flame.
A ball of crimson flame the size of an adult's head was thrown several feet away by him with a roar, and a patch of weeds half as tall as a man instantly turned into ashes.
If it were withered grass, it wouldn't be anything, but it was a piece of growing weeds. Turning them into fly ash requires at least two processes: one is from green grass to withered grass, which is the process from birth to death. The second is to turn the withered grass into powder and even fly ash, which is the process of removing its shape.
The two processes were completed in an instant, which is enough to show the power of this flame. It is not far from the intermediate fire spirit talisman. If it were a cultivator without a defensive magic weapon, it would probably be wiped out by this flame.
Zhou Yang was quite satisfied with this result. Ordinary spiritual cultivators would never achieve such results.
Under normal circumstances, it would be good for a person with a fire attribute physique to perform fire spells at the peak level of the spiritual platform, if they can reach the power of low-level fire spirit talismans.
Although it is the most basic Taoist art, the ancestors who created it had to go through tens of thousands of attempts before they could make the flame art appear in the world.
Although this technique is simple, the meaning behind it is very profound.
"The quality of spiritual power turns into flames. This is a method of using spiritual power, and it is also related to the rules of fire. Spiritual power can turn into flames, or it can also turn into other things. This is the power of rules. When you understand Once the rules of a certain attribute are met, spiritual power can be transformed into something at will.
The various Taoist techniques of cultivating the world are just the application of this rule or law. According to the fact that the golden elixir realm is the starting point for understanding the law, then the ancestors who founded a certain Taoism must be at least a master of the golden elixir, and most likely a master of the later stage or above. "
Zhou Yang's thinking is a little divergent, but his understanding of flame magic seems to have deepened a step further.
He threw out two more flames, whether it was an illusion or real. Although it didn't seem to get bigger, the power seemed to be slightly stronger.
