"Governing a big country is like cooking a small one. It is the most difficult to master. Zi Ling, you can actually make Fangshan County run in an orderly manner by just formulating some laws and regulations behind the scenes, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. It is really amazing!" For a long time, Lai Yinuan couldn't help but He gave a thumbs up and praised.
Although he is a genius in cultivation in Tianyan Sect, he is a layman in terms of governing the country. It is really hard to imagine that Qin Ziling can manage such a large county so well just by formulating some laws and regulations behind the scenes.
"Haha, to tell you the truth, teacher, I am actually very good at cooking. After today's important discussions are over, I will cook a table for you." Qin Ziling couldn't help but feel a little proud after hearing this.
Lai Yinuan and others were dumbfounded when they heard this. They couldn't imagine that someone like Qin Ziling, who could suppress the two Jindan ancestors, was actually a master of cooking!
"Teacher, you didn't come here just to talk about the change of ownership of Da Qi, right? Moreover, Da Qi is such a big country, and the Tianyan Sect is willing to hand it over to our Qin family. It shouldn't be that simple, right?" Qin Ziling He quickly put away the little pride on his face and asked in a deep voice.
"You are right. The Tianyan Sect handed over the entire Daqi Kingdom to the Qin family in order to build a good relationship with you. Even if you lack any resources for practice, you can bring it up and the Tianyan Sect will try its best to satisfy you. You." Lai Yinuan said.
"Oh?" Qin Ziling's face changed slightly and he said, "Could it be that Tianyan Sect wants me to deal with some powerful person?"
"Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you." Lai Yinuan said with a flash of surprise in his eyes, "Xi Zuhong, the head teacher of Taiding Sect, successfully survived the Immortal Infant Tribulation and became an Earth Immortal."
"Tai Ding Sect, Earth Immortal?" Qin Ziling looked confused.
"I forgot that although you are very capable, you have risen too quickly and are still very young. You know very little about many things." Lai Yinuan saw Qin Ziling's doubts on his face. He was slightly stunned at first, and then he understood.
"Indeed, the main records in the Family Scripture Pavilion are the affairs of the Daqi Kingdom. Apart from the Daqi Kingdom, there are a few records about the neighboring countries, but there are almost no records further away. The records on spiritual practice are mainly about Xuan Dynasty. Below the master level, there are almost no records above the Xuan master level." Qin Ziling nodded.
"Actually, my knowledge of this is very limited." Jian Bailou followed.
Lai Yinuan nodded when he heard this and said: "The vast land we live in is called Xuanming Continent. Beyond Xuanming Continent is the vast sea. I don't know if there are any other continental countries on the sea. of.
There are seventy countries, large and small, on the Xuanming Continent. There are twenty-three countries at the level of Da Qi, which are considered big countries. Above these seventy countries, there are eight major forces including four sects, two demon sects, and two demon sects.
The four sects are Tianyan Sect, Taiding Sect, Xuanshui Sect, and Qingfeng Sect; the two demon sects are Tianlang Demon Sect and Red Python Demon Sect; the two demon sects are Tianzhi Sect and Netherworld Sect.
These eight major powers tower over the seventy countries, and have divided their respective spheres of influence through battles and struggles throughout the ages. Because there is not much difference in strength between the eight major forces, apart from some small-scale fights and fights over the years, everyone has been relatively peaceful.
But in the past hundred years, because of the talented disciple Xi Zuhong from the Taiding Sect, the Taiding Sect, which was originally superior in strength, has become more and more powerful, overwhelming the other seven major forces. Many of the rules in this Xuanming Continent are decided by the Taiding Sect, which has also forcibly carved out a lot of territory in the past hundred years. Even the Alien Beast Mountain Range, which has always been controlled by the two demon sects, was directly and forcibly removed by the Taiding Sect.
However, the Taiding Sect is not yet powerful enough to compete with the seven major forces as a single force, so the Taiding Sect is not yet able to issue orders to the seven major forces, and cannot achieve Shunchang's reversal. But things are different now. Xi Zuhong has become an Earth Immortal in the Immortal Infant Realm, with the strength to crush the seven major forces. I'm afraid that after he consolidates his realm, he will force the seven major forces to surrender to the Taiding Sect. "
At this point, Lai Yinuan stopped.
The atmosphere in the hall began to become solemn at this time.
The joy and relief brought by Jian Bailou and others because Qin Ziling had just killed Jiang Shengyun was gone.
They originally thought that Tianyan Sect was powerful enough, but now they know that Tianyan Sect is only one of the eight major forces, and among these eight major forces, there is now a force that can crush the other seven major forces.
"What do you mean by immortal infants, earth immortals and the like? How powerful are they compared to the golden elixir monks?" After a while, Qin Ziling asked.
"Cultivation is divided into three paths: cultivating gods, refining qi, and practicing martial arts. Martial arts is also called body refining. Those who practice the three paths to a certain level can be called immortals. Those who cultivate gods and become immortals are collectively called heavenly immortals, and those who refine qi are called earthly immortals. The martial arts are called human beings.
Cultivation of gods is the most elusive and mysterious. Although there should be people cultivating gods in Xuanming Continent, there are very few of them and their strength is weak. At most, they can only confuse ordinary people, so there is very little information circulated.
As a teacher now, I know that the realm of spiritual cultivation can be divided into the realms of concentration, out-of-body experience, possession, expelling objects, distracting the mind, seizing the body, manifesting the saint, thunder tribulation, heavenly immortal and other realms. The realm before manifesting the sage should be the same as the Qi Refining Path, divided into three small realms: the early stage, the middle stage, and the late stage. But I have no idea how to divide the two great realms of Thunder Tribulation and Heavenly Immortal.
When it comes to qi refining, a Jindan cultivator cannot yet be called an immortal, but can only be called a semi-immortal. Golden elixir monks successfully overcome the tribulation, and only after breaking through the elixir and becoming a baby are they called immortals, or earthly immortals. The realm of fairy infants is only the lowest realm among earthly immortals, which means a baby among earthly immortals. But even so, the strength of the Earth Immortal in the Immortal Infant Realm cannot be competed by the Jindan cultivator.
The fairy infant realm is divided into three small realms: the initial, the middle and the last. After the fairy infant realm, the fairy infant is fully grown and is called a true fairy. True Immortal is actually a realm of Earth Immortal, but under normal circumstances, it is directly referred to as True Immortal. It is said that there are nine levels of true immortals. What else comes after the true immortals is not recorded in the Tianyan Sect's Scripture Pavilion.
After cultivating a martial arts master and surviving the heavenly calamity, one can be called an immortal. Because martial arts regards oneself as a small world and cultivates oneself, one is called a human immortal. The road to martial arts cultivation is extremely difficult. In the past thousand years, there seems to be no human immortal in Xuanming Continent. As for earlier times, that's not clear. Even if there were, I'm afraid it was very rare, otherwise there would be no records in this regard.
Regarding human immortals, there are some records left behind by the ancestors of the Tianyan Sect who returned from overseas in the past dynasties. It is said that the first realm where a martial saint survives the heavenly tribulation and becomes a human immortal is called the realm of rebirth, followed by the Dharmakaya realm and the cave heaven realm. The cave heaven is also divided into nine levels, but there is no record of what realm comes after the cave heaven.
Since the realm of rebirth is already a human immortal, logically it should be equivalent to an earthly immortal in the realm of immortal infants. However, because human immortals are based on human beings themselves, their power is limited when they first become human immortals, while earth immortals can borrow the power of heaven and earth and have heaven and earth as their backers. Therefore, when warriors first become human immortals, they are only slightly more powerful than golden elixir monks. Not as good as an Earth Immortal in the Immortal Infant Realm. "
At this point, Lai Yinuan glanced at Qin Ziling and added: "You are different. I am referring to ordinary monks."
"In this way, human immortals in the reborn realm are actually almost equivalent to the golden elixir realm, and Dharmakaya realms are equivalent to the fairy infant realm. But generally speaking, in such corresponding realms, human immortals are slightly more powerful." Qin Ziling said.
"That's pretty much it." Lai Yinuan nodded.
Qin Ziling's expression became solemn when he heard this.
He is still just a Martial Saint. After the Martial Saint, he will be a human immortal in the Reborn Realm, and then he will be a Human Immortal in the Law Body Realm. Xi Zuhong, who is in the Immortal Infant Realm, is now a Human Immortal equivalent to the Law Body Realm. There are two gaps in between. Big realm.
Although Qin Ziling relied on the powerful power of the broken dragon claws he displayed, he should be able to barely fight against the ancestor of Xian Ying. But the problem is that he can only perform one or two attacks with the dragon claw, and then stop. However, the ancestor of Xian Ying can continuously perform such powerful killing moves.
There is still a big gap between the two!
Of course, Qin Ziling has other means, and even has a manifested saint-level soul, but those means are good for dealing with the Golden Core cultivator, but they are definitely not enough to deal with the Immortal Infant Ancestor.
After all, the gap in realm is too big!
