"Since I'm destined to be with you, Li Tang, what if I promise you Jiazi's national destiny?" Zhou Baifeng said calmly.
Because extending Li Tang's life was just an incidental part of his plan.
He stretched out his hand to hold it, and the blank imperial edict in Li Yuanhe's hand suddenly flew up and landed in Zhou Bai's hand.
"Thank you, Immortal, for your help!" Li Yuanhe said with tears of gratitude.
"Go, remember, if the Northern Wei Dynasty attacks across the river, just retreat, there will be a turning point..."
Marquis Qingshan's request for removal from the title was approved. The court did not make any big announcement, and no news was heard from the Marquis's residence. It was as usual on the mountain and below.
Zhou Bai was naturally too lazy to say anything more, and just asked the housekeeper to dismiss the servants, and then move the ancestral temple to the original renovated old house.
In fact, if it weren't for the sake of the next cultivation, he would have continued to live in the Hou Mansion, and the court would not have taken it in at all.
Within two days, Zhou Bai began to practice Qi Conquering, inhaling the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, trying to condense the first ray of magic power.
Because the aura of the real world is far inferior to that of the main world, it is not worthwhile to spend too much time and energy using advanced techniques to build the foundation. Therefore, Zhou Bai selected the most basic universal Qi method from his memory.
To be precise, this is Zhou Bai's simplification based on the Qi Convincing Method that he has practiced in the world of Huanglong Lake.
Even if he returns to the main world, He Changsheng can continue to practice. According to estimates, it should be no problem to transform from the mortal world and extend his life.
Using this method to absorb the essence of heaven, earth, sun and moon, and circulate Qi around the sky, is the secret to refining the first drop of magic power.
Zhou Bai sat cross-legged on the top of the small green mountain, exhaling spiritual energy in the dark night, and the rhythm of his breathing contained some strange charm.
The white Qi was like a dexterous snake, shuttling back and forth between his mouth and nose. Both the Ren and Du meridians were connected, and the Qi circulated throughout the sky effortlessly.
The spiritual energy in the Dantian is accumulating more and more, and it is no longer in a state where it could not retain spiritual energy in the past. This means that the hidden dangers of He Changsheng's body's congenital deficiencies have been completely eliminated.
In this state, as long as Zhou Bai has a thought, the spiritual energy will transform into the first ray of mana, but he is still waiting.
I don't know how long it took, but he suddenly opened his eyes and saw that the sky was slightly bright and the morning sun was slowly rising.
The thin spiritual energy of heaven and earth began to be mixed with bland purple energy, which was the purple energy of the rising sun.
No matter in any world, whether the aura is strong or not, the power of the Chaoyang Purple Qi and the Lunar Moon are the most original power.
Zhou Bai seized the opportunity and greatly improved his breathing efficiency. With the help of his soul power, traces of purple energy were accurately captured.
He no longer strictly controlled the condensation of mana in his dantian, and the first ray of mana was born naturally.
Once the magic power is established, the Tao foundation will also take shape. This is called the first step of practice, entering the Tao realm.
The ordinary and ordinary Dao foundation is completely different from Zhou Bai's original Heavenly Dao foundation.
If I really want to point out one advantage, it is that the speed of improving one's cultivation level will be very fast, and it can cope with the shortcomings of insufficient spiritual energy.
Moreover, Zhou Bai added the step of inhaling the Qi of the Morning Sun, which made the mana in He Changsheng's body a little more pure Yang.
According to common sense, this is He Changsheng's way of cultivating. He doesn't need to put so much thought into it. Anyway, he only needs to have magic power.
A monk's cultivation level is usually divided according to the first level of entering Taoism, the second level of metamorphosis, the third level of Yin Shen, and the fourth level of Yang Shen. The difference in cultivation means the difference in realm.
In the first two realms, the common view on cultivation is mana cultivation, and there is little mention of the soul.
However, the soul also has realms, which are generally ignorance, perception, clarity, spiritual deficiency, etc. The higher the realm of the soul, the easier and clearer it is to learn Taoism, understand rules, and the direction of the road.
The first one to get stuck in the soul realm is the Yin God Realm. Only when you reach perception can you have a chance to break through the Yin God Realm.
Because starting from this realm, the strength of the soul determines the strength of the Yin God, which also determines the strength of the cultivation base.
When the soul reaches the realm of perception, it can use the soul to perceive external things. Although it is a lake, it can comprehend the world.
In addition, for Yin Shen cultivation, only when it reaches the realm of perception can the soul contact the body's magic power and carry it with it.
A soul without mana cannot be called a Yin God. At best, it is a ghost that uses soul power and ghost energy.
And let He Changsheng's magic absorb the purple energy of the morning sun just for that tiny trace of positivity.
Those who are pure yin without yang are ghosts, those who are mixed with yin and yang are yin gods, and those who are pure yang without yin are yang gods.
After the death of a mortal, the ghost soul sheds its shell and becomes a ghost. Those who practice Qigong have not exhausted their Yin and are in trance too early, which is called Yin Shen.
If Zhou Bai's physical body existed, there would be no need to borrow this trace of yang from heaven and earth. His physical body, which built the foundation of heaven and cultivated Hunyuan Qi Luck Daozang, already contained an unknown amount of yang.
This is the importance of skills and foundation. From now on, Zhou Bai's transformation from yin to yang will inevitably be simpler than that of ordinary monks.
In the next two months, Zhou Bai, apart from breathing and practicing on the top of the mountain, would play chess and drink tea with the mountain god.
Because his spiritual energy was really weak, Zhou Bai's mana cultivation level did not increase much. However, the busy pace of life that he had been in since his time travel and rebirth was slowly slowed down.
Laughing at the ups and downs of the world, sitting idle and fanning a pot of tea.
In these two months, he seemed to have forgotten the urgent situation facing the main world, and also forgot that at this time, the Wei State was winning steadily on the Yangtze River.
The taut string relaxes leisurely, and the world seems to have changed its scenery. Every moment, the soul can feel a different Tao Yun.
Halfway through the cold winter, Xiaoqingshan received its first snowfall. It was exactly the middle of the winter, and the jade plate in the sky was full.
Zhou Bai finished his meditation in the quiet room and suddenly became interested in taking in the snowy night view of the small green mountain.
When I pushed the door open, I saw a vast sky and earth, with white snow covering the entire small green mountain.
That day, the full moon spread another layer of bright moon veil, everything was silent and beautiful for a moment, it was really a fairyland on earth.
Facing the bright moon, Zhou Bai climbed to the top of the mountain, overlooking the wilderness in all directions, and felt pride and longing in his heart.
What would it be like to be able to roam freely in the moonscape on a snowy night?
At this moment, the desire for freedom in his soul reached its extreme, and suddenly, his eyes shot out with white light.
The originally heavy and hard-to-leave feeling of restraint completely disappeared. When I looked around, I was already under the bright moon in the night sky, and the physical body on the mountaintop was stagnant in place.
All kinds of savings are already enough. As long as you calm down and settle down, you will be able to break through naturally.
In Zhou Bai's mind, he recalled some visionary records of Yin gods leaving their bodies in Taoist scriptures.
Because his yang energy is not strong enough, he cannot break through the heavenly barrier, so he follows other directions and follows his convenience.
When it comes out, if you see white light like a river in your eyes, then the spirit comes out of your eyes; or if you hear the sound of bells, chimes, and flutes in your ears, then the spirit comes out of your ears.
Because it was the first time he had left his body in a Yin Shen state, Zhou Bai did not subconsciously block the vision, so white light came out of his eyes just now.
Looking inside to check the state of the Yin spirit, it is found that there is not too little positive energy in the soul, but a trace of free energy in the full negative energy.
Thanks to the foundation of the Heavenly Dao, the original body and soul blended day and night, and the soul had already been contaminated with positive qualities.
He Changsheng's little positive energy was just an introduction to stimulate and reveal the positive energy hidden in his soul.
In addition to the positive energy filling the soul, there is another difference between the real Yin God, that is, he now carries magic power with him.
It is no longer the case that one can only rely on the strength of the soul body itself or that little bit of spiritual consciousness to bully those who have not trained their souls.
Wind control!
Zhou Bai thought lightly, and a gust of night wind swept around him, and then carried him away at high speed.
Cast spells faster, have greater power, and consume less mana...
A whole night passed, and no one knew where Zhou Bai went. He returned home happily in the early morning.
When he returned to He Changsheng's body, he breathed a sigh of relief. Even if the weak sunlight in the winter morning burned his body, he still felt uncomfortable pain.
Yes, he naturally knew that there were various taboos about the Yin Shen leaving the body, especially not traveling during the day, but because of his deep foundation, he still wanted to test it out.
When thoughts arise in the heart, they should be like the sounds in the valley. They can sense the Holy Spirit and absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. They can feel it very keenly.
Be aware of surrounding spirits.
After coming out, I felt free and happy, walking through the streets and alleys, and hiking near the water.
If the sun is high in the sky in midsummer, the Yin gods will be afraid of it and avoid it, so even though it carries the fairy wind, it will not leave the ghost realm.
After one night of experience, Zhou Bai confirmed various records in the Taoist scriptures. It can only be said that it is worthy of a state that can have a certain status in the main world.
In the world of spiritual practice, there is often an angry saying on people's lips, that is, "At worst, I can turn to ghosts and immortals, and I can still find freedom and ease."
Regardless of being free and happy, converting to ghost immortality is actually only suitable for people above Yin Shen or a few people with outstanding souls. Generally, even the basic requirements for entering the Tao and transforming into the mortal world cannot be met.
Because only in the realm of Yin Shen or above, the soul body can begin to breathe in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and leave the physical body to practice alone.
No, when Zhou Bai came back from wandering around all night, he didn't consume much mana. He could absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to replenish it at all times.
The Yin Shen returned to the physical body, and the pain immediately disappeared, and the pain had not yet caused any injuries.
According to actual experience, it is certainly not suitable for the Yin God to leave the body during the day, but as long as the sun is not directly shining in midsummer or other seasons, it will generally not damage the origin of the Yin God.
After descending from the top of the mountain, the middle-aged man transformed by the mountain god was waiting at the chessboard stone table early.
When she saw Zhou Bai appear, she cupped her hands and said with a smile: "Once you become a Yin Shen, you will be one of our generation."
Zhou Bai thanked the mountain god for his protection last night, shook his head and said humbly: "How can you compare yourself with the divine monarch? You are only half-stepped within the golden imperial edict. I am afraid that the body of the yin god has the ability to transform into yang."
The mountain god was a little dissatisfied with Zhou Bai's modesty, so he exposed his shortcomings and said, "Don't say that I don't have the golden imperial edict now. Even if I do, I'm afraid I may not be able to beat you even if I am the god of incense and fire."
"The vast world, alas..."
As she spoke, there was a bit of human envy in her eyes when she looked at Zhou Bai.
"Is it possible that there was no Yin Shen monk in the Tang Dynasty?" Zhou Bai smiled awkwardly and took the opportunity to ask.
"In our world, it's hard to find a monk who has become a Yin God. At least in the more than a hundred years since I woke up, I have never heard of a Yin God being born." The mountain god's answer was quite rejoicing.
What are you thankful for? Fortunately, the way to become a god through incense does not require a sufficient aura environment like a monk.
"Oh, by the way, there is a national master in the Wei Kingdom in the north. He should be regarded as half a Yin God. He is still alive today."
National Division? Needless to say, Zhou Bai understood why the mountain god said it was half.
In the main world, when the Central Plains dynasty fell into troubled times, monks often supported the dragon. Once the dragon he supported established a foundation, he would often give him luck in return.
And this Fulong monk will use the large amount of luck given in return to help him practice and break through the realm.
Now the Northern Wei Dynasty's National Preceptor followed a similar pattern. The Taizu of the Wei State was helped by him, so he was named the National Preceptor and enjoyed the fortune of a country.
With the title of National Master, and with the help of the huge national luck, he barely broke through the Yin Shen realm.
It's just that although this kind of Yin God has the lifespan and characteristics of a normal Yin God, its fighting strength is not as good as that of a normal Yin God.
It's not unreasonable that she couldn't even defeat the mountain god in front of Zhou Bai, which led to a hundred-year stalemate between the north and the south. Now she dismisses him as half a ghost god.
"The mountain god knows that if the concentration of the world's spiritual energy is lower than a certain level, it will slowly affect other extraordinary powers. Even the gods who rely on incense will be suppressed. This is a change in the rules." Zhou Bai was silent for a moment, and then reminded him.
"Is that what you mentioned? Absolute access to heaven and earth? No transcendence in the world?" The mountain god felt a little happy due to the comparison and disappeared without a trace.
Zhou Bai nodded slightly and said seriously: "Yes, you were granted the title of Lord Protector of the Tang Dynasty and were unable to ascend the throne. The main reason is the lack of basic luck in the Tang Dynasty, but it may not be that the rules have begun to restrict the gods of incense."
[In view of the general environment,
"I have a destiny with the Lord God. You'd better consider that proposal."
The mountain god was speechless for a long time, and began to solve the remaining game on the chessboard.
This solution is half
In an hour, the endgame had actually been solved long ago, but the decision had just been made.
The mountain god asked aloud: "When you go from the lower world to the upper world, how much status will you lose? Or should you become a mountain god?"
After Zhou Bai heard this question, he still didn't understand what the mountain god meant. He suddenly felt a joyful feeling in his heart and explained: "Well, I'd better let you be the mountain god. It's my foundation there, a spiritual vein." Mountain."
"As for your rank, you may fall to the ordinary red or even white rank, but don't worry, as long as you believe me, there will be enough incense to upgrade you soon."
The mountain god nodded, waved slightly in the direction of the temple, and huge incense sticks gathered.
She let out a long sigh: "The kindness that the people of the Tang Dynasty have shown me is still unknown..."
"It should be enough for Jiazi not to be affected by the war."
"The fact that the Li family gave this blank imperial edict shows that they are willing to bear any price, even for you, the protector of the country."
Zhou Bai walked straight into the room, then took out a roll of dragon-patterned yellow satin and spread it out on the desk.
Without waiting for the mountain god to say anything else, he picked up his pen and wrote an extremely straightforward and concise line on the blank imperial edict.
Nowadays, there is a protector who is unworthy of his responsibilities and has been specially removed from his rank. He has no luck with the Tang Dynasty.
Admire this.
The method used by Zhou Bai to resolve the cause and effect of He Changsheng was the same as the eviction of the imperial edict, and both were "volunteer" by the Li Tang royal family.
…
It turns out that not long after he came to this world, another entry was updated on the panel of the Book of Luck.
[Portable: None] (Currently only soul body)
(It has had many causal interactions with you, and if the person being carried is willing, he can return to the main world together. If the person being carried has major unresolved causes and effects in the current world, he cannot be carried.)
Under the sacrifice and burning of the mountain god himself, the sacred object gradually turned into ashes, and the entries also flashed at the same time.
[Portable: Xiaoqingshan Mountain God]
