Volume One, Luoxia Sect, Chapter 48: Solving Mysteries in the World of Immortal Cultivators III
At the same time, cultivating immortals is inseparable from "spiritual stones". "Lingshi" are ores that contain energy of: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. Absorbing these ores can be several times faster than absorbing them from the air. [Read the latest chapter] According to the amount of energy contained in the ore, it is divided into four levels: low-level, intermediate, high-level, and top-level.
The book also mentions the stages of cultivating immortality, dividing it into eight stages. They are: Qi gathering, foundation building, elixir formation, infant transformation, aggregation, spiritual communication, Xuanling, and Mahayana. Each stage is subdivided, and the Qi gathering period is divided into ten levels. One, two, and three are the early stages, and four and five are The sixth level is the middle stage, the seventh level is the late stage, and the tenth level is the realm of Dzogchen. If you break through, you will have laid a solid foundation for cultivating immortality and entered the foundation building period.
The stages of foundation building, elixir formation, infant transformation, aggregation, spiritual communication, mysterious spirit, and Mahayana are divided into four levels. The first level is the early stage, the second level is the middle stage, the third level is the late stage, and the fourth level is called the Mahayana. Perfect, as long as you break through the bottleneck, you can enter the next stage.
During the Qi gathering period, it only absorbs the energy of heaven and earth to prepare for foundation building. Therefore, its lifespan is about the same as that of ordinary people, only a hundred years at most.
Only when a cultivator enters the foundation-building stage can he enter the path of cultivating immortality. The lifespan of an ordinary monk in the foundation-building stage is more than 200 years, which is more than twice that of ordinary people. Therefore, every immortal cultivator is eager to succeed in foundation-building. Only when the foundation is established can one officially enter the ranks of immortal cultivators.
If you are lucky enough to enter the elixir-forming stage, your lifespan will be even longer, five or six hundred years, and you will be a god on earth. He has vast supernatural powers, capable of moving mountains and seas, and calling for wind and rain.
Further up the realm of cultivation is the Infant Transformation Stage. If you enter the Infant Transformation Stage, your lifespan can exceed a thousand years. According to legend, the founder of the Luoxia Sect lived for more than 1,300 years. The higher you go, the longer your life span. There is no record in the book about how long a monk in the Convergence and Spiritualization stages can live, because the monk who wrote this book is only in the Foundation Establishment stage. It is said that the highest-level immortal cultivator has appeared in the entire Daliang Kingdom, and he is the founder of the Luoxia Sect. He has cultivated to the stage of the Great Perfection of Transforming Infants. However, the book does not explain whether there are higher-level immortal cultivators in other countries.
"The First Interpretation of Immortality Cultivation" also explains the weapons used by cultivators of immortality. Various weapons play a vital role in monks' martial arts fighting.
From low to high, they are divided into: magic weapon, spiritual weapon, magic weapon, ancient treasure, spiritual treasure, etc.
Magical instruments are generally only used by monks in the Qi-gathering period, and are divided into low-grade, medium-grade, top-grade and top-grade magical instruments.
Spiritual weapons can be used by monks in the Qi Gathering Stage and Foundation Establishment Stage, and can also be divided into low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade and top-grade spiritual weapons. However, even disciples at the peak of their Qi gathering stage cannot flexibly control spiritual weapons for a long time. Because the amount of spiritual power consumed is too much, it is not something a disciple in the Qi Gathering Stage can bear.
Magical weapons can only be refined by monks at the Alchemy stage. After being refined, they need to be cultivated in the body for a long time and connected with one's own mind. When used, its power is many times greater than that of a spiritual weapon. However, there are not many magic weapons in the world. Every monk regards the magic weapons as their second life, so they are very precious.
Lingbao, specially refined by powerful people in ancient times, has incredible magical powers. Even now, there is not a single spiritual treasure in the entire Daliang Kingdom.
Ancient treasures are magic weapons refined by ancient monks. They are more powerful than today's magic weapons. It can be used without long-term training.
There are also some talismans that also have attack effects. Such as ice needle talisman, fire talisman, etc., which seal the magic power in special talisman paper. When using it, just inject spiritual power and it will activate. It is simple and practical. It is the best weapon for low-level monks to fight. But it is very difficult to make, so each one is expensive.
There is a kind of beast talisman in the talisman, which is to refine the soul of the demon beast into the talisman paper using special means. It can be activated with spiritual power to control the soul of the demon beast to attack the enemy. But refining is even more difficult.
There is also a kind of talisman, called a talisman. It is a talisman that can only be made by monks above the infant stage. It uses special techniques to seal part of the power of one's own talisman in special talisman paper, which can be used by low-level monks. Part of the power of the original magic weapon for attack or defense. Since part of the power of the original magic weapon will be lost during production, it requires a long period of training by the maker to recover it. Therefore, talismans are rarely circulated.
At the same time, part of the power of the talisman will be lost every time it is used. When the power of the talisman is exhausted, the talisman will be invalid. Although the talismans have a limit on the number of times they can be used, which is a bit useless for monks in the transformation stage, there are still some family or sect monks who feel that their end is coming, and some will make some talismans for future generations to use.
After going through "The Chronicles of the Luoxia Sect" and "The First Interpretation of Cultivation of Immortality", Qin Fengming finally had a general outline of Cultivation of Immortality. He had answers to many of the questions that troubled him before, although he did not find the 'Void Spiritual Root' mentioned by the old man surnamed Wei. , Since I can practice the immortal cultivation technique, it means that I am much stronger than ordinary people. I made up my mind that no matter how poor my qualifications were, as long as I worked a hundred times harder, I would definitely be able to gain something.
After returning the two books, Qin Fengming started practicing in his room according to the original formula. He asked Senior Brother Su and found out that any elementary Five Elements Kung Fu method only has the Qi Gathering Stage formula. After establishing the foundation, you need to choose the formula again. Therefore, he did not practice the book given by the sect, but continued to practice according to the famous formula he had originally practiced.
Forty days passed in a flash. On this day, a young man wearing a gray shirt called Qin Fengming. The young man looked like he was at the fourth level of Qi gathering stage and called himself Liu. Following the young man into the weapon refining hall, Qin Fengming was stunned when he saw that the hall was empty and empty.
Seeing his surprised look, the young man smiled and said, "Junior Brother Qin, everyone who enters the Weapon Refining Hall for the first time will look like you." As he spoke, he raised his hand, and a jade token appeared in his hand, which was very similar to his own.
The young man threw the jade token and it flew towards the corner of the hall. After the jade token flew nearly two feet, it stopped. At the same time, the green light flourished, and a light curtain appeared in front of the eyes. There was only a "bang" sound, and a passage for the two people to enter appeared on the light curtain. The young man floated into the passage, and Qin Fengming quickly followed him.
Entering the light curtain, there is a downward passage. The opening is more than a foot high and more than half a foot wide. The young man didn't say anything, but stepped forward and entered the passage.
