Sleepless night.
After receiving such a heavenly opportunity as Emperor Liujian, it took Fang Longye two hours to calm down the joy in his heart.
The east gradually turned pale, and Fang Longye emerged from the water. As usual, he began to absorb the purple energy from the east, half of which was used to warm the inner elixir, and the other half of which was turned into mana.
When Zi Qi grew old, he returned to the palace, took a 300-year-old Huang Jing, and meditated to "guide" and adjust his breath.
It has to be said that "taking food" and "guiding" are magical powers that will be listed in the ranks of the seventy-two earthly evil arts in later generations, and they still have some background.
Of course, this does not mean that all of the seventy-two Earthly Evil Techniques can be considered extraordinary.
After all, I have been practicing for a long time. Based on the superpowers I have gradually developed, combined with the seventy-two Earthly Evil Techniques in my memory, I found that many of them are just fake.
While I was thinking about it, the voice of the Green Snake Queen suddenly came to my ears: "Come to the mansion and see me!"
Fang Longye was startled, and understood that this was a sound transmission from the divine consciousness. As a person in the Chengdan realm, he could also do it, but it was only within a range of ten miles.
He blinked his eyes, and then, regardless of whether the Green Snake Empress could hear or see, he said respectfully: "Yes, Empress~"
The Demon Mountain where Green Snake Mansion is located is only about 700 miles away from his current location. In just a moment, he arrived at the entrance of the Green Snake Mansion.
This time, it was actually the butterfly spirit who was guarding the entrance of the cave in person, and greeted him as soon as he saw him.
"Fellow Taoist Dragon Ye~" "Thank you, Taoist Brother Cai Die." The two exchanged greetings.
It's not like Fang Longye has never returned to the Green Snake Mansion in the past ten years. With his deliberate friendship, the two monsters who were originally unfamiliar with each other also developed some friendship.
According to her, although he looks ferocious, he has learned etiquette since Ling Hui became Qing Ming, and is not as rude and rude as other monsters.
"Fellow Taoist Cai Die, do you know what the empress is looking for for me?" Fang Longye followed her into the Green Snake Cave and said through a message from his spiritual mind.
"There was such a big commotion last night, why can't I ask you about your practice progress?" Butterfly Spirit covered her mouth and chuckled, and at the same time, her spiritual consciousness came over, "Don't worry, it's a good thing."
Fang Longye felt relieved and walked into the hall where the Green Snake Empress secretly summoned her subordinates.
It's still the original setting, dotted with exotic flowers and plants.
The difference was that there was a stone chair at the bottom of the stone bed above the hall. Fang Longye knew that this was specially reserved for him.
"I've seen the empress!" Fang Longye was about to bow down, but Green Snake used magic to stop his body and said: "Last night, everyone benefited from the emperor's grace. I guess you will soon." You can become a Yin Shen. You won’t have to perform such a grand ceremony in the future.”
"This~" Fang Longye hesitated for a moment, then stood up and thanked him and accepted.
"Sit down~"
Fang Longye sat down carefully, and then said, "I wonder what errands the queen has for me?"
Green Snake chuckled and said: "What? Can't I call you over if nothing happens? You have been practicing outside these years, and the number of times you come to see me is very few."
"Your Majesty, forgive me~" Fang Longye hurriedly stood up to bow and apologize.
"Sit down, I'm just joking with you. Who hasn't cultivated all the way from a lower realm? I understand the concerns in your heart when you face me." The Green Snake Empress waved her hand, and Fang Longye sat back on the stone chair again.
"Empress, this~" Faced with Empress Green Snake's sincere confession, Fang Longye had some doubts.
"I know what you have been worried about. But now I want to explain to you the cultivation of Yuan Shen and above. Haven't you always wanted to know? As for other things, we will talk about it later."
When Fang Longye heard this, he hesitated to speak. He temporarily put aside the doubts in his heart, sat upright, and waited for her explanation.
So far, he still knows nothing about the cultivation after becoming a Yin Shen.
During this period, he once made insinuations about the Yuanshen realm monsters under the command of the Green Snake Empress. As a result, even the Butterfly Spirit, who was friendly to him despite his deliberate friendship, still refused to tell him. He only said that he would know after he became a Yin Shen.
Gradually, he also understood that this kind of preaching grace was probably restricted by the Green Snake Empress to only be performed by herself.
Now that the Green Snake Empress was about to explain her cultivation, Fang Longye naturally put everything else aside.
Seeing Fang Longye's attitude of listening attentively, the Green Snake Empress showed a satisfied smile and began to explain to him the matters of cultivation and the details.
"The practice of our demon clan may be different from that of humans before the Yin God. But after reaching the Yin God, it is very different. Basically, we have to face the choice of the future path, and there is only one chance to choose."
"After becoming a Yin God, if you choose to ignore everything else, leave the physical body behind, turn the physical body into essence and absorb all the energy, continue practicing purely as a Yin God, and finally become a Yang God.
This path is called the "Ghost Immortal Path".
This path is extremely difficult. If the practitioner's physical body is not destroyed, or he is the body of a vicious ghost. Basically no monk would choose this path.
The multi-faceted monster under me chose this path because his body was damaged. "
"The second path, if the Yin spirit returns to the physical body after leaving the body and interacting with heaven and earth, and completely dispersing into the physical body, the physical body can be channeled, and from then on, the physical body can be used to practice.
Regard the physical body as the foundation for establishing the world and a treasure raft for overcoming tribulations. Step by step, we can eliminate the yin qualities, temper our will, and finally achieve the pure yang treasure body.
This path is called the "human immortal path". "
"Although this path is not good at understanding the secrets of heaven, nor is it good at cultivating Taoism, it can be said that it is amazing to fight against the heaven and earth with its divine power.
And our demon race’s physical body is inherently stronger than that of the human race, and we prefer to fight with our bodies. In addition, by practicing this path, in the process of cultivating the Pure Yang Treasure Body, we can continue to tap into the power in our bloodline and gain insights and magical powers from many ancestors. Therefore, this path is quite popular among us demon cultivators. "
"There is also a third path. The Yin God does not disperse after returning to the body, but settles in the Zi Mansion, and their lives are intertwined and go hand in hand.
Although the progress of cultivation at the beginning is not as fast as that of extreme practitioners such as "Ghost Immortal Way" and "Human Immortal Way", you can not only possess the vagaries of the spirit of the Ghost Immortal Way, but also slowly pursue a powerful body comparable to the Human Immortal Way. Infinite future.
Of course, since this path is so perfect, it naturally requires practitioners to have excellent understanding, to look up at the way of the sky, and to look down at the way of the earth. Otherwise, even if you attain immortality, you still won’t be able to go far.
Fortunately, there was a powerful man who took pity on the difficulty of seeking the path for all sentient beings like us, and opened up a path that allowed monks who could not go on this path to continue moving forward. "Speaking of this, the Green Snake Empress could not help but show a look of reverence on her face.
"According to that powerful man, practice is to learn from the heaven and earth. Since we can't go on to the level of understanding, it is better to be in harmony with the earth, mountains and rivers, first become an immortal immortal, and realize the great way through the dojo that is one with ourselves. , and finally seek detachment.
Because this path requires the soul to absorb the aura of the earth veins and form the shape of a baby to fit into the dojo. In addition, the monks who take this variant path often reconcile yin and yang and breathe out spiritual ideas in order to understand the great path through the dojo that is consistent with themselves. The land gradually becomes a blessed place. Therefore, this type of immortal is called "Earth Immortal Way". "
Earth Immortal Way? Fang Longye's expression was strange, and he had a guess in his mind.
"As for the path to heaven that I mentioned earlier, which can only be walked by those with extraordinary understanding, it absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and absorbs the essence of the sun and moon. It is said that because it is too perfect, it takes away the creation of heaven and earth, and God will also bring disasters. Suffering, so it is called the ‘Celestial Way’.”
"Finally, there is a special path, the 'Shen Dao'. Immortals receive the power of the heaven and earth under the divine talismans, receive offerings from all living beings, and practice incense and vows. However, once they have achieved this, they must be limited to this. It can be said that Success is incense, failure is incense. One day, if no one worships it, it will be abandoned by all living beings, and it will surely fall from the altar."
"'The Immortal Way' is special because all the first four types of immortals can practice it. But among other practitioners who also practice the Immortal Way, only the Celestial Immortals are not affected by its characteristics.
Practicing both earth and immortality will affect his ultimate practice that transcends the restrictions of the Taoist temple; cultivating both human and immortality will affect the tempering of his human and immortal will; as for ghosts and immortals, it will have little impact.
Strictly speaking, the Immortal Path is a variant of the first path, just like the Earth Immortal is to the Heavenly Immortal. "
"That is to say, there are five immortals in the world, gods, humans and ghosts in heaven and earth."
"Dare I ask the empress, the name of the great master who pioneered the 'Earthly Immortal Way'?" Fang Longye asked cautiously in order to confirm his conjecture.
"How dare you and I mention the name of such a great power? Because of this pioneering work, this great power is revered by all living beings as the 'Ancestor of the Earth Immortals'."
"As for more information, I don't know. After all, this powerful dojo is said to be far away in Hezhou, Xiniu. Isn't it hundreds of millions of miles away from Luzhou, Beiju?"
Journey to the West, indeed Journey to the West!
"Xiniu Hezhou", "Beijuluzhou", "Ancestor of Earth Immortals" and "There are five immortals in Zhoutian: heaven, earth, gods, humans and ghosts." ’ of the Five Immortals.
No wonder~ But even after confirming that this was the world of Journey to the West, Fang Longye's mood only fluctuated for a moment, and then returned to normal.
Because judging from the current situation, the memories of past lives can only be used as reference. How can a complete world be so simple?
Just compare the plot of Calabash Baby with what he is experiencing now. Apart from the fact that the characters may be the same, is there any similarity at all?
How can the real Green Snake Empress be summarized in a few scenes of the original plot?
