The power of Gui Yuanzi's sword was terrifying.
After this battle, the soldiers and generals who surrendered in Taiheng Mountain will definitely behave with their tail between their legs and not dare to have evil intentions.
Fishing law enforcement was successfully completed.
There is nothing we can do about it. After collecting the surrendered troops, how can we control people's hearts without killing a few people?
After all, he has no one under his command, so he can only make do with these surrendered troops.
On the Taiheng Mountain side, if we keep it this way for now, anyone who dares to commit crimes will be killed with one sword.
Xu Ke withdrew his consciousness and let Gui Yuanzi continue to be in charge of Mount Taiheng, and stopped taking care of it.
Cultivation is the foundation, whether it is territory or prestige, it all serves the purpose of practice.
Next, Xu Ke focused on his own practice.
The practitioner breaks through the birth of the infant and achieves the Yuanying. The consciousness of the soul and the spiritual power are integrated into one, manifesting the form of a "little person". This is the first formation of the Yuanying.
The Nascent Soul at this period actually only has a "human form", but the shape looks like a human being. In essence, it is still just a ball of condensed spiritual power, and it is not the true body of the Nascent Soul.
The cultivation of the Nascent Soul in the early stage is to allow this "human form" to give birth to a real human body structure, shaping the muscles, bones, skin and flesh, organs, and blood marrow.
This process of shaping the body of the Nascent Soul also requires refining some heavenly materials and earthly treasures to create the body of the Nascent Soul.
In myths and legends, Nezha's lotus body is actually the refining of heavenly materials and earthly treasures to create the true body of Nascent Soul.
After the birth of the baby, Xu Ke practiced for a period of time. The Nascent Soul was very stable and he could start to create the real body of the Nascent Soul of the "Hunyuan Dao Body".
In the process of casting the true body of the Nascent Soul, the better the quality of the refining heavenly materials and earthly treasures, the stronger the foundation of the true body of the Nascent Soul.
However, the higher the grade of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, the rarer they become. Ordinary practitioners have no chance to use high-grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures to shape the body of the Nascent Soul. They can only use ordinary spiritual materials to make up for it, and their future is naturally limited.
Xu Ke searched the Qing Weizong's family assets, and the Seven Kills Gourd contained many heavenly materials and earthly treasures suitable for shaping the body of Yuanying.
But... it's not enough.
The Hunyuan Yiqi Sutra, the Three Paths and Nine Methods, contains twelve kinds of spiritual energy attributes.
Xu Ke wants to refine Yuanying into a "Hunyuan Dao Body". Once refined, twelve heaven and earth spiritual objects with different attributes are needed. To shape the body of the Nascent Soul, the materials and treasures required far exceed those of ordinary monks.
Opening the Seven Kills Gourd, Xu Ke took inventory.
Qing Weizong searched for a lot of things, and there were also many spiritual objects suitable for casting the Nascent Soul body, but it was not easy to gather twelve attributes.
After Xu Ke picked and picked, he only got one portion.
"The first step in shaping the body of the Nascent Soul is to cast the skeleton, so that the body of the Nascent Soul has a foundation for survival. This is the root bone."
Xu Ke sat cross-legged on the ground and waved his hand, and twelve different kinds of heaven and earth spiritual creatures floated around.
Bone casting is a very important link in the cultivation of Yuanying's true body.
Because the techniques focus on different things, the various Nascent Soul casting methods are also very different.
Some people use swords as bones to cast "sword bones". For example, the bone-casting method in "Xiaoyou Qingwei Xuanyuan Sword Classic" is sword bones.
Some people cast "animal bones" in the shape of the bones of mythical beasts. For example, in the "Picture of the True Shape of the Golden Crow of the Great Sun", the method of casting bones is to cast the bones of the Golden Crow.
Xu Ke's "Hunyuan Yiqi Sutra" is very stable and does not play tricks. It is still the orthodox bone-casting method for human practitioners. It casts the Yuanying root bones completely according to the human bone structure.
We are born as human beings, and our self-perception is that of “human beings”.
Human monks cast the Nascent Soul Root Bone. If it is not in human form, it will definitely lead to the incompatibility of self-perception and the Nascent Soul Root Bone, and it will take a long time to adapt.
Even if you can gain tyrannical power with sword bones, animal bones, etc., it is definitely not the right way.
What's more... for Xu Ke, one breath can produce all kinds of methods. The Hunyuan root bone is the essence and the original form, but it can also transform into other forms of root bones.
For example, the incarnation of the Guiyuan Sword is in the form of a sword bone.
The bones of Lingbao's incarnation are actually shaped from the materials used for refining weapons.
Although it is an incarnation, it is still essentially an artifact, but it is somewhat different from Xu Ke's cast bones and is not so particular.
If you don't follow the side method of "using a magic weapon to achieve the soul", why spend such good materials on a magic weapon?
At this moment, Xu Ke activated the formation, mobilized the majestic spiritual power, and turned it into Hunyuan spiritual energy that filled the surroundings.
The Array Spirit God Jizi can be regarded as Xu Ke's clone. The Hunyuan aura derived from these large formations is no different from Xu Ke's own Hunyuan aura.
With the help of the spiritual power of the large array, Xu Ke's refining of these heaven and earth spiritual objects became easier.
Lines of Hunyuan spiritual energy intertwined and swirled around the body, connected with the twelve kinds of heaven and earth spiritual objects floating around, forming a Hunyuan Qi true talisman.
"Hunyuan Qi, practice!"
With a loud shout, Xu Ke pinched his fingers and stretched out his hand to lead.
The twelve kinds of heaven and earth spiritual beings hovering around each rushed out a spiritual light, fell on Xu Ke's head, merged into the body from the Tianmen, flowed along the meridians, poured into the Dantian, and poured into the Nascent Soul.
At this time, Xu Ke's entire focus was on Nascent Soul.
The aura refined from twelve kinds of spiritual objects was continuously integrated into the Nascent Soul. Xu Ke used his soul consciousness to guide this aura and circulate it in the Nascent Soul.
Visualize the shape and structure of the human body's bones, and draw the spiritual light to shape the root bones in the Nascent Soul.
In the beginning, the bones condensed by aura were just pieces of bone-shaped aura, insubstantial, almost like shadows.
Slowly, as the spiritual light continues to merge and condense, the bones gradually turn from virtual to solid, and gradually condense into shape.
At the same time, among these gradually condensed root bones, densely packed various spiritual patterns are continuously derived, layer upon layer, and intertwined.
Until the twelve different spiritual objects are completely refined, all the spiritual light is absorbed by the Nascent Soul.
At this moment, the bones condensed in the Nascent Soul have officially taken shape.
The pure and white Nascent Soul root bones are like pieces of crystal jade, blooming with radiant light.
The Hunyuan Jade Bone was officially cast.
From then on, Xu Ke's Nascent Soul had a bone, a supporting framework, and a support, and was no longer a ball of spiritual power without any foundation.
Of course, this kind of root bone is not a purely material form, nor is it simply stuffing a few bones into the Nascent Soul.
The Nascent Soul Root Bone can be transformed into reality and reality. It has both substantial and illusory forms. It can be virtual or real, and can be gathered or dispersed.
The Hunyuan Jade Bone, which is refined using twelve kinds of heaven and earth spiritual creatures as firewood, has a strong foundation.
Of course, Xu Ke can make this foundation stronger... a hundred times!
"God rewards hard work, and you will gain a hundredfold."
As soon as the thought came to mind, the four characters "God will reward those who work hard" burst out with bright brilliance on the banner scroll in his mind.
During the cultivation process of just casting the Nascent Soul Root Bone, all the experiences, realizations, thoughts and insights have been multiplied a hundred times.
At the same time, the Hunyuan jade bones that had just been formed in the Nascent Soul erupted with a dazzling light. The bones trembled and collided, and the clear sound of jade chimes was heard.
The quality of Nascent Soul's root bones instantly increased a hundred times.
The originally pure and white Nascent Soul root bones became crystal clear, pure and flawless, as if they were made of glass.
Hunyuan Glazed Jade Bone!
According to Buddhist legend, Namo Medicine Master Glazed Light Tathagata is made of glazed jade bones.
Although Xu Ke's Hunyuan Glazed Jade Bones are definitely not up to that level, he still has a ridiculously strong and deep foundation.
If someone breaks through the dantian and kills the Nascent Soul, such glazed jade bones can withstand the golden elixir magic weapon without being damaged at all. Even the Nascent Soul spirit treasure can be hit several times without being damaged.
Of course, Xu Ke has not fallen to the point of letting others break through his Dantian.
Forged with bones, Xu Ke's strength has been greatly improved.
It's just that...the next step of practice is more difficult.
Now the root bones have just been cast, and one-eighth of the progress of shaping the Nascent Soul's true body has been completed. There are still skin, flesh, tendons, internal organs, organs, blood, and marrow that have not yet been refined.
You need to collect twelve kinds of heaven and earth spiritual objects with different attributes before you can practice it again.
Moreover... this kind of practice will be carried out seven times, requiring eighty-four heavenly and earthly spiritual objects.
It’s not like there are eighty-four spiritual objects from heaven and earth. After searching the Qingweizong's family assets, Xu Ke's Seven Kills Gourd still contained many spiritual objects from heaven and earth.
But...the attributes are wrong! There are no twelve attributes of heaven and earth spiritual beings.
From the perspective of aura essentialism, aura attributes can be transformed. The question is...are the transformed heaven and earth spiritual beings still heaven and earth spiritual beings? That's a man-made spiritual creature!
Xu Ke wouldn't mind making some artificial spiritual objects if they were used by others.
However, if you use it yourself, you can’t mess around with it like this.
Xu Ke picked up the Seven Kills Gourd and counted it. There are a lot of five elements spiritual objects, which are completely enough. After you use them up, there will still be dozens left.
There are six spiritual beings with light attributes, and one is missing. This is not a problem. The Great Sun Yang Sui of Haoyang Sect is a very good light attribute spiritual object, which is completely sufficient.
There are only four wind-attributed spiritual beings, and three are missing.
There are five lightning-attributed spiritual objects, and two are missing.
There are only three dark attribute spiritual beings, four less.
There are two ice-attributed spiritual objects, but there are five less.
There are no spiritual beings with attributes of time and space... none.
These are difficult to solve.
With an idea, Xu Ke activated the Heart Seal Channeling Technique and sent a message to Dao Lord Dayan, "Contact the various factions in Lingnan to see if we can exchange some spiritual objects of heaven and earth."
Dayan Daojun received the order and immediately sent messages to all factions.
One after another flying talismans rose into the sky, sending messages to all directions.
All of a sudden, every sect in the Lingnan cultivation world received the talisman letter from Dao Lord Dayan.
"Purchasing spiritual objects from heaven and earth?"
Taoist Taoist Master Yujing of Taixuan Sect smiled when he saw the talisman letter sent by Taoist Master Dayan, "Fellow Taoist Dayan is planning to train his disciples with all his strength."
There are only a few golden elixirs left in Yuanfu Sect. Even if Daojun Dayan is very powerful, he can't find anyone under his command who can hold up the scene.
But...it is so difficult to cultivate an excellent disciple.
None of the golden elixir miscellaneous fish in Yuanfu Sect has a chance to be promoted to Yuanying. Daojun Dayan still has to re-select and re-train people.
It seems that for at least hundreds of thousands of years, Daojun Dayan can only stay at home and has no intention of expanding outwards, let alone the conditions for outward expansion.
Therefore, Daojun Dayan is a person who is both powerful and has no conflict of interest with Taixuanzong.
Daojun Yujing smiled, "Daojun Dayan still has to give you face."
"Somebody come!"
"Check this list to see if the sect has any remaining spiritual objects of heaven and earth. If so, sell them to Dao Lord Dayan."
Scenes like this happened in various sects in Lingnan.
For the ten top sects, Daojun Dayan has both strength and no conflict of interest. He is a very worthy partner.
For those sects that do not have the Taoist Hua Shen Dao Lord in charge, it is not so easy to refuse the purchase request of the Dao Lord Dayan.
Therefore, in the next period of time, various sects in Lingnan sent people to Yuanfu Sect to sell heaven and earth spiritual objects.
I have to say that Daojun Dayan is indeed outstanding.
Wind, thunder, light, dark ice, these five attributes of heaven and earth spiritual objects were quickly gathered.
However, the spiritual objects of heaven and earth with attributes of time and space have not yet been gathered together.
There are six spiritual objects with space attributes, and there is still one missing. Only five spiritual objects with time attributes were collected, and there were still two left.
Therefore, Xu Ke still needs to find one space spiritual object and two time spiritual objects in order to successfully complete the initial body casting practice of Yuanying.
The remaining three things are not easy to solve.
Spiritual objects of heaven and earth with attributes of time and space are very rare to begin with. It's not even available in the Lingnan cultivation world, let alone the Cangmang Plains and Southern Xinjiang.
It seems that the only way to do this is from overseas.
With a thought, Xu Ke's mind and consciousness connected with Hunyuanzi who was traveling overseas.
At this moment, Hunyuanzi... is still on his way!
Cangmingyuan is really too far away. Even if Hunyuanzi uses the "Longitudinal Golden Light Escape Technique", it will still take a lot of time to reach it.
"Hunyuanzi, on the way to Cangmingyuan, I would like to ask you where there are spiritual creatures with time and space attributes. Don't let them go if you encounter them."
"yes!"
Hunyuanzi quickly accepted the order and continued to fly across the vast sea.
After arranging tasks for Hunyuanzi, Xu Ke began to continue practicing.
Daojun Dayan is so proud that he has collected five sets of heaven and earth spiritual objects in the Lingnan cultivation world, Yuan Ying body shaping, and can be practiced five more times.
The skin, flesh, muscles, bones, and internal organs can all be refined, leaving only the final blood and marrow, which lacks the spiritual objects of time and space attributes and cannot be sacrificed and formed.
Therefore, Xu Ke practiced in seclusion in Bishuitan Cave, focusing on cultivating the true body of Yuanying.
Xu Ke had already cast the Nascent Soul Root Bone and possessed the Hunyuan Glazed Jade Bone.
Now, on this basis, we continue to practice the ritual, and the skin, muscles, tendons, five internal organs, and six internal organs are all completely refined, and all of them are blessed with a hundredfold harvest.
After this sacrifice, Xu Ke's Nascent Soul body has taken on a substantial form, becoming pure and transparent, crystal clear, and gleaming.
"Hunyuan Taoist body, glazed golden body" has begun to take shape, only "blood" and "marrow" are missing before the sacrifice can be successful.
In fact, after the "blood" and "marrow" were sacrificed and refined, Xu Ke's Nascent Soul's true body was not yet in its most perfect form, and there was still a lotus platform that had not been refined!
The lotus platform where the Nascent Soul sits cross-legged, the Great Heart Lotus, is also a part of the Nascent Soul and cannot be left alone.
Therefore... we have to find a high-grade lotus flower and refine it into the Dao Heart Lotus, which is the most perfect one.
If you really can't find it, you can only use "Pure Lotus" to make up the number. (End of chapter)
