Obviously, if you think about it with your brain, you can also know that this road to ascension is not that easy.
Otherwise, in ancient times, not only real people who had become immortals would explore the Northern Underworld City.
Right now, a group of people who are only in the Five Qi Dynasty Yuan Realm and have not even become immortals are running to places like that, trying to pass through the passage between the two realms.
No matter how you look at it, it is the result of a narrow escape from death, no, it should be said that there is no life after a hundred deaths.
But even so, countless monks throughout the ages still followed one after another, risking their lives to make huge bets for the sake of that slim chance of immortality.
The word "immortal" has made so many proud people crazy about it.
Immortality may be an obsession and instinct carved into human life.
"Fortunately, this goal pursued by countless immortal cultivators has been achieved before I officially started cultivating immortality."
When Lu Yuan thought of this, his original sigh of relief suddenly turned into relief.
It’s great that you don’t have to fight against the odds and risk your life like other people do!
After a moment of joy and rejoicing, Lu Yuan put aside these distracting thoughts and concentrated on studying the specific cultivation methods of the Five Thunders Book.
It is different from Taiping Dao Shu.
The practice of Taiping Taoism emphasizes the power of gathering people. The Qi of Taiping that is finally cultivated will naturally have a humane and majestic energy, which is a natural imperial aura.
And what you practice in the Five Thunder Book is the aura of heavenly thunder.
This energy is a trace of thunder energy born from the energy of fairy spirits combined with the mighty thunder of heaven.
"So if you want to cultivate this book, you have to find a suitable thunderstorm sky, and then infect the power of thunder with the spirit of the fairy spirit, and guide the thunder energy into the body. After refining, it will be the magic power of the sky thunder."
Lu Yuan looked at the practice tips of the Five Thunder Book, and studied the methods of entraining Qi, transforming thunder, and refining thunder word by word, and gradually gained some insights.
According to the above three methods, a complete set of procedures can be followed to turn the spirit energy into the heavenly thunder energy unique to the Taoist book. From then on, the heavenly thunder magic power can be cultivated, and the Taoist magic will naturally have an extra layer of thunder power.
In addition, the Five Thunder Book also records many Five Thunder spells, some of which can be cast without much mana.
For example, it is similar to the Thunder Sound Technique demonstrated by Master Zhenxuan.
If Lu Yuan cultivates the power of thunder, he can generate thunder sounds out of thin air, shock people's hearts and souls, and destroy evil spirits. This is a very practical basic spell.
Or in thunderstorm weather, you can use the art of attracting thunder to attract thunder to attack the designated target.
You can even directly use the magic power of the sky thunder to transform the thunder in your palm, and directly attack the enemy with this thunder.
There are more than thirty kinds of spells similar to the above ones recorded in the Five Thunder Books.
Some are strong and some are weak, some are high and some are low.
In the entire Five Qi Chaoyuan Realm, basically every Qi Realm has five or six kinds of spells, which are enough for monks to use.
In addition to these spells, the Five Thunder Book also records the refining of three magic weapons.
The first is the Five Thunder Seal, which is refined with the gold of the five elements, and then tempered with the mighty thunder for a thousand days. During this period, various thunder spiritual objects are thrown in, and forty-nine prohibitions are carved to obtain this superior multiplier.
The second is the thunder-inducing sword, which is made of thousand-year-old thunderwood as the main body, and is also tempered by the sky thunder for a thousand days. It is supplemented by the corresponding thunder-type spiritual objects. Thirty-six prohibitions can be carved into the seal to obtain the medium multiplier.
The third one is the wind and thunder flag, which is woven into a flag with spiritual threads that have both wind and thunder attributes. It is then made into a flagpole with a hundred-year-old thunder attribute. Twenty-seven prohibitions are carved on it, and a multiplier can be obtained.
The three magical weapons are all of infinite power. Anyone who can master one of them is enough to make monks in the same realm look down upon them.
"But it's a pity that in this age of the end of the law, spiritual materials are scarce. I can't practice any of the three magic weapons for fear of death, so I can only take a look."
After Lu Yuan read the description of the refining conditions of the three magic weapons, he couldn't help but shook his head, completely giving up.
In today's world, there is no way to play with magic weapons, and there is no need for magic weapons.
With just magic, you can dominate the world.
After all, if a cultivator like Anqiu develops some magic power, he can rival a martial arts master. And if he is a monk like Zhenxuan who has condensed his Qi, he is equivalent to a martial arts master.
The immortal way has declined so far, and the martial arts has withered to this day. If Lu Yuan can cultivate magic power and combine it with his martial arts cultivation, as long as he does not encounter the existence of Zhenxuan who condenses his energy, he can basically be said to be invincible.
If a great master can advance his immortal cultivation to the point where he can condense his Qi and his martial arts to the third level, he will be invincible in the world, lonely in the world, and extremely lonely.
Therefore, compared to illusory magic weapons, it is more realistic to practice step by step and improve your strength step by step.
"The recent celestial phenomena indicate that there will be a thunderstorm in seven days. At that time, you may be able to channel the qi into thunder and try to practice this book."
Lu Yuan calmed down, looked at the night sky, carefully counted the time, and couldn't help but think deeply.
After so many years of marching and fighting, he had done some research on astronomy, geography, climate and astrology.
Nowadays, he is even more innately accomplished and has a sympathetic relationship between heaven and man. He can't help but be more sensitive to the climate changes between heaven and earth.
At this time, weather changes can be calculated with just a little extrapolation.
After confirming that there would be thunderstorms in seven days, Lu Yuan nodded in his mind, then calmed down a little before getting up and going down the mountain.
Now that Xiantian has been established, it is difficult to make a big breakthrough in martial arts in a short period of time.
As for cultivating the Five Thunders Book, it is not yet ready at this time.
Naturally, Lu Yuan would not stay on the mountain blowing the cold wind and waste time here. He still has a lot of things waiting for him to deal with.
…
All the way down the mountain, Lu Yuan remained low-key and did not make a big fuss about his breakthrough in innateness.
He has become accustomed to keeping two trump cards in everything.
Now he has broken through the innateness and concealed this matter. Outsiders don't know the news, and they might be able to catch a big fish some time later.
Just like last time, Lan Cai'er was full of confidence when she came to assassinate Lu Yuan.
As a result, because the news was lagging behind and he didn't know that Yan Wangqiu was beside him, the assassination failed.
The saint herself ended up being seriously injured and running away, and then without the support of top-level combat power, it directly led to the current defeat of the Five Poison Sect.
Lu Yuan experienced this personally and even tasted the sweet fruit of it. At this time, he naturally understood the taste by eating the marrow and wanted to replicate it again.
Just in time, the news that he had broken through the innate world could be used as a new trump card and hidden.
"At that time, I want to see if any new big fish have been caught and come to eat this bait."
Lu Yuan sneered twice, feeling quite proud.
Watching your cards accumulate more and more is always gratifying and enjoyable, and you can't help but feel happy.
After breaking through the Xiantian, Lu Yuan's internal energy turned into true energy. When he used his original Qing Gong, his speed doubled out of thin air.
Therefore, it took him only half a day to cover the hundreds of miles of mountain road and returned to the military camp.
Back in the camp, it was already broad daylight.
After Lu Yuan had breakfast, he invited Yan Wangqiu over.
…
A short while later, after Lu Yuan drank half a cup of tea, the old master was invited into the tent.
After seeing him, Yan Wangqiu couldn't help but be shocked.
"General...General has already broken through Xiantian?"
Yan Wangqiu's eyes widened and he stared at Lu Yuan with an expression on his face. He couldn't stop looking up and down. The more he looked at him, the more shocked his face became.
Because based on his eyesight and his own sense of true intention, the General Zhengnan in front of him has clearly achieved perfect aura and is innate in martial arts.
Although Lu Yuan's breakthrough in innateness was something that had long been foreseen.
But how long has it been?
The two had only met for a few months, not even half a year, and they were already in love with each other.
Yan Wangqiu couldn't help but feel confused when he thought of this.
Is it so easy to break through naturally?
But if this is the case, why can't my sect not even cultivate a single innate after decades of hard work?
Therefore, as expected, it was General Lu who was so talented that he could break through the innateness so quickly.
But why does it make my heart feel even more sour when I think about it like this?
At this time, Lu Yuan smiled on his face and said very humbly: "I was lucky enough to have some insights recently, so I broke through the innateness last night and made the National Master laugh."
After hearing this, Yan Wangqiu couldn't help but feel even more unhappy, but he still forced a smile and congratulated: "The general has achieved great success in martial arts and has broken through the innateness. From then on, he became a master of one party and became the lord of the world."
Lu Yuan waved his hand: "Where is it? I am in the first realm of innateness now, and then there are the second and third realms. For these two realms, I don't have a clue how to practice. That can be regarded as dominating the world."
The highest level of Chiyang Divine Skill and Mental Technique can only reach the top of the first-class level.
He was able to break through the innateness, relying on the fairy spirit energy in the jade piece to temper his internal strength, relying on his extremely powerful soul after crossing over, relying on the logical accumulation of enough attribute data, and relying on Yu Zhongguo Family deductions about innateness through the ages...
It is precisely because of the above conditions that Lu Yuan can successfully break through Xiantian.
But the resources accumulated under these conditions to provide him with a breakthrough in innateness are almost exhausted.
Lu Yuan has no way forward as to how to proceed after innateness and how to practice in the next step. Without any guidance, he can only rely on himself to slowly understand and understand.
But how difficult is it to comprehend the innate skills on your own?
With no basis at all, I'm afraid it won't take a few hundred years to figure it out, right?
Lu Yuan has a clear understanding of these.
Yan Wangqiu also had a deep understanding of this. At this time, he couldn't help but said: "After Xiantian, it is indeed difficult. Our sect has been researching for hundreds of years, and so far we have only been working on the first level of Xiantian. We still have no idea how to practice in the second level. Not much clue.
Not to mention the third level of Grand Master. "
There are actually many Xiantian sects in the world.
It is said that among the Yue Kingdom, there are as many as six in Jianghu.
But among these six families, except for one Liuyang Sect, they are all just the inheritance of the first realm of Xiantian.
Looking at the world from this, there may be over a hundred Xiantian Grandmasters in the Nine Provinces, but among these hundreds of Grandmasters, there may only be a dozen or so who can reach the second level of Xiantian Realm.
And among these dozen people, not even one can reach the third realm of innateness.
This is the reality, and it can be seen how difficult it is to break through the second and third realms of innateness.
"It is generally accepted that martial arts training becomes more difficult as you progress towards it. So now that Lu can break through the innate world and enjoy a life span of 150 years, he is satisfied and no longer expects anything else."
Lu Yuan echoed Yan Wangqiu's words, and after talking for a while, he changed the topic again: "However, I no longer have extravagant aspirations for the realm of martial arts, but the many achievements in this world are not limited to martial arts.
Apart from martial arts, fame, fortune and fortune are also what the world pursues.
Now the imperial court has established a plan for the Ten Grand Masters to lure us by splitting the land and enfeoffing the country, and recruiting us to serve them.
However, the feudal states they gave them were either barbaric territories or ruined lands.
The imperial master has lived in the South China Sea for a long time and is used to the prosperity. How can he really be willing to go to the thousands of miles of sea and the rich and fertile land.
Go to the remote Xichuan, take your disciples with you, and fight to the death with Zhou Sheng? "
Now Lu Yuan's strength has exceeded his innate strength, and he has been promoted from a half-chess player to a real chess player.
Coupled with the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command, they are even attached as wings, which greatly increases his confidence.
Therefore, at this time, he did not intend to pretend to be forbearing.
The original plan of uniting Jianghu masters to help each other and negotiating better terms with the court began to be implemented.
Yan Wangqiu in front of him was Lu Yuan's first target.
"What does the general mean by this?"
Although Grandmaster Yan was old and well-educated, he still couldn't help but change his color when he heard Lu Yuan's almost rebellious words.
But Lu Yuan just smiled: "The imperial master should know what I am talking about. The imperial court ordered us to contribute to him, and let us risk our lives for him. But the wealth he gave us was stingy. very.
I thought about it privately and felt that it was not worth it.
Why did we shed our blood, work so hard, and save the country, but we only get a reward of half a county?
He has six surnames and seven clans, and only has six masters, but he can occupy the land of seven counties in the world. The four masters and I can only divide the border counties into two dilapidated areas.
We warriors always speak with our strength.
The imperial court and those aristocratic families no longer have enough strength, so naturally they have no virtue and continue to occupy such a large territory.
I thought that among the nine counties in the world, we and the four masters could each take one to occupy it.
Such distribution is reasonable and fair.
There are tens of thousands of disciples of the Imperial Master, dominating Yulin and Nanhai counties, and everyone in the Lingnan martial arts community will bow to them. What kind of momentum is this?
But now, for the sake of some petty profit for the imperial court, we have to give up this thousand-year-old foundation, give up two counties and take half of the county, and even have to stay far away from our homeland and let our family members scatter in all directions. Isn't it sad!
In my opinion, even if the Imperial Guard cannot take over Nanhai County, it is still possible to come to Yulin County with the imperial court.
Although he will still move away from his hometown, he will still be in Lingnan, not too far away from his hometown, and those disciples will be more willing to follow him.
Isn't this beautiful? "
Lu Yuan persuaded sincerely.
As Yan Wangqiu listened, his expression slowly changed, from surprise to calmness, then from calmness to frown, and finally from frown to pounding heart.
It had to be said that Lu Yuan's words really spoke to his heart.
As the leader of the Lingnan martial arts community, the Nanhai School naturally has a big family and a big business.
There are more than 30,000 registered disciples in the sect. If you include some peripheral vassals, it is even called a hundred thousand.
Being able to gather so many people, the Nanhai Sect is naturally deeply bound to the Lingnan area, and has long been integrated into one, indistinguishable from each other.
Therefore, if Yan Wangqiu really insists on moving away from Lingnan to Xichuan County, which is thousands of miles away, then the sect's interests that have been bound to Lingnan will naturally have to be given up.
And with this parting, the original 100,000 disciples may not even be left with 10,000 in the end, and they may even be able to take away only two or three thousand core disciples.
In this way, even if the Nanhai faction can finally move to Xichuan County, there will be half a county to establish a country.
But with what little strength is left, can it really hold on to the newly built kingdom?
Don’t let the country be overthrown just a few years after its founding.
This is very possible.
So it was precisely after seeing this that Yan Wangqiu enthusiastically befriended Lu Yuan after seeing his strength.
Because it is different from the Nanhai Sect, which is a joint force composed of local snakes from all over the world.
Lu Yuan's forces are all professional soldiers recruited from all over the country. They are integrated from top to bottom. They are bound by strict military laws and have no complicated local interest chains.
As long as he, the general, gives the order, all the soldiers can immediately move to any location with their families.
This is something Yan Wangqiu cannot do.
Therefore, if one can make good friends with Lu Yuan, then if the two feudal states come together, a win-win situation can be formed in which Lu Yuan provides grassroots soldiers and the Nanhai Faction provides high-level combat capabilities.
Having a little temptation is what motivates Yan Wangqiu to surrender at all costs.
But at this time, it seems that things may change.
"This newly promoted general conquering the south has great ambitions."
Yan Wangqiu thought to himself, with a look of interest on his face, and said, "General Lu wants to turn against the imperial court?"
Lu Yuan corrected: "This is not a rebellion, it is just to fight for our reasonable treatment and negotiate terms with the court. Is the Imperial Master willing to help me?"
Yan Wangqiu pondered: "General, are you sure?"
Lu Yuan said: "If we can unite all the martial arts masters like us, then everyone in the world will be united. I can't say with 100% certainty, but I still have 50% or 60% certainty."
This probability of success is based on the current specific national strength of the imperial court and the huge external pressure.
After careful calculation, it is obtained.
As long as the imperial court does not want to die together, then there is indeed a greater than half chance that the other party can make a compromise.
After hearing this, Yan Wangqiu finally stopped hesitating and nodded: "If so, I am willing to give the general a try."
Just like what Lu Yuan said, who would want to move thousands of miles if they could stay in their hometown.
If the Nanhai Sect moves to Xichuan County, they will be able to take away less than ten percent of their strength.
But if you just move to Yulin County, which is also one of the traditional territories of the Nanhai Sect, although this county is not as good as Nanhai County, it can still be regarded as your hometown.
If the Nanhai Sect moved to this county to establish a country, at least half of their power would be preserved.
By then, with the help of tens of thousands of disciples, the foundation of the new country will be solid in just a few years.
By that time, I wonder if the Nanhai Sect will usher in a great resurgence after its transformation is successful?
After all, compared with one hundred thousand disciples and millions of common people, it is clear at a glance which of the two has greater potential.
It is easy to distinguish which one is more beneficial, having power spread over two counties or actually controlling one county.
If following Lu Yuan can really bring about these benefits, then it is worth taking some risks.
"Don't worry, Sect Leader Yan, the court today is no longer what it used to be. Follow me and I won't let you down."
Seeing that Yan Wangqiu finally agreed, Lu Yuan couldn't help but be overjoyed, and then even changed the title of the other party from the original national master to the sect master to express the positions of both parties.
From then on, the two became another layer of small allies within the alliance system of the Ten Grand Masters.
Belong to your own people among your own people.
This intimate relationship is naturally unusual.
Yan Wangqiu also heard this and said with a smile: "I and the Nanhai Sect will have to ask Grandmaster Lu to take care of them from now on."
In the words of the old grandmaster, he also abandoned the identity of Lu Yuan's imperial court and directly changed his identity to a grandmaster whose strength matched the opponent's.
"Easy to say, easy to say."
Lu Yuan touched his palm, and then the two of them looked at each other and couldn't help laughing in unison.
