Cangmingyuan Cave.
After seeing off Dao Lord Dayan, Xu Ke sat down cross-legged in the main hall and began his own practice.
Xu Ke has verified the method of combining the Hunyuan Yiqi Sutra many times, and also put it to the test on Gouzi. Although Gouzi's practice has not ended yet, the method has been verified correctly.
Now, you can formally practice on your own.
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Xu Ke circulated his skills and sensed the great avenues of heaven and earth.
Xu Ke was indeed the "Chosen One", and the process of sensing the Great Dao was extremely smooth. Almost as soon as his thoughts moved, the rules of the Great Dao responded accordingly.
The figure flickered and turned into an invisible information state. Xu Ke's mind and consciousness merged with the rules of the avenue.
Because the Taichu Dao does not appear under normal circumstances, if Xu Ke wants to incorporate the rules of the Dao into his body, he still can only start from the acquired Dao and go against the innate to see Taichu.
Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, ice, wind, thunder, light, darkness, time and space, and the twelve rules of the avenue are completely revealed in front of them, integrated with Xu Ke's Yuan Shen Law.
The Tao is added to the body, and the invisible information-state soul appears in form in the brilliant light of the Tao.
This is equivalent to "downloading" the rule information from the avenue.
After completing this step, it is still only a prerequisite for the integration of practice, and it is not yet a formal creation of a great body.
The next step of practice is to use the "Twenty-Four Gods in the Yellow Courtyard" method to create the body of the Dao with the rules of the Dao.
The twenty-four gods in the Yellow Courtyard divide the human body into twenty-four parts.
The eight gods in the above scene are centered on the Niwan Palace of the brain, including the eyes, ears, mouth, nose, tongue, brain, hair, and neck.
The eight gods in the middle scene are centered on the Tanzhong point and include the five internal organs, two ribs, arms, and spine.
The lower scene of the Eight Gods, centered on the Dantian, includes the six internal organs, the legs, and the outer Yang (or vulva).
These twenty-four parts respectively become twenty-four "body gods", and are finally integrated into one body to create the body of the Great Dao.
The "Yellow Turban Body Training Technique" that Xu Ke once practiced was also derived from the twenty-four gods in the Huangting interior. Each "body god" can develop a body-building magical power.
According to Xu Ke's "scientific understanding", this so-called "twenty-four gods in the inner scene" should be the "driver" of the body's organs.
For example, heartbeat, digestion and absorption of the intestines and stomach, etc. These functions do not require human subjective consciousness to direct them, but the organs run automatically according to the "driver program".
When it comes to cultivating immortals, the automatic operation function of these organs is the "Twenty-Four Gods in the Yellow Courtyard".
Cultivation can be seen as a spiral process.
From the beginning, the practitioner is initially a body of flesh and blood. Through Qi training, foundation building, golden elixir, and Yuanying, until the essence of the soul is condensed, this is the process of transforming from a flesh and blood body into a body of energy.
After condensing the dharma of the soul, the process from returning to physical form to integrating becomes the stage of reshaping the "flesh and blood body" from an energy body.
Using the rules of the Dao, the body of the Dao is forged, so that the primordial spirit's legal form is restored to the state of "flesh and blood".
However, the "flesh and blood" now is no longer the "flesh and blood" of the past, but the "flesh and blood" created by the rules of the great road. It only has all the functions and characteristics of the former flesh and blood body, but is not essentially "flesh and blood".
After all, immortals can also have children.
Without this link, without forging the body of the Great Way, so that the soul and the Dharma possess all the functions and characteristics of the flesh and blood body, it would be impossible for the immortals to have children, and the Queen Mother would not be able to give birth to the seven fairies.
At this moment, Xu Ke was running his skills, using the method of "Twenty-four Gods in the Yellow Courtyard" and using the rules of the great road to condense the "seeds" of the twenty-four gods in the interior.
The first thing Xu Ke condensed was the "mind" among the eight gods in the middle scene.
The heart is the source of blood and the mind is the source, which is more in line with Xu Ke's thinking.
With a thought, metal, wood, water, fire, earth, ice, wind, thunder, light, darkness, time and space, and twelve kinds of Tao, condensed, interacted, entangled, and merged on the left chest of the Yuan Shen Dharma.
One by one, they spread like capillaries, intertwine and intertwine like silk threads, and condense at one point.
The next moment, starting from the twelve basic avenues, the innate rebellion becomes Taichu.
An invisible and colorless light shone and condensed into an extremely tiny point of light.
If you magnify it countless times and look at this tiny spot of light, you will suddenly see the shape of a heart.
This is the prototype of "mind".
The newly condensed mind is just a seed, and it will take a long time to gradually grow and truly become a "heart".
Gouzi is based on his previous cultivation state. To complete this process, it will take decades, even hundreds of years.
Xu Ke's words... If you don't harvest a hundred times, it will take even longer than Gouzi.
Fortunately, with a hundredfold gain, this is no longer a problem.
There is no rush now, let’s condense the seeds of other “body gods” into shape first, and then reap a hundredfold harvest at once and improve the overall quality.
After all, the body is a whole, and strengthening a certain organ alone will cause many problems.
Moreover, why do we need to harvest each organ a hundredfold? Is it stupid? Isn't this a waste of uses that yields a hundred times the harvest?
Next, Xu Ke continued to condense other physical seeds according to the steps of condensing the mind.
The Eight Gods in the upper scene, the Eight Gods in the middle scene, and the Eight Gods in the lower scene. Under Xu Ke's practice, they all successfully condensed the seeds of the body god and formed the prototype of the twenty-four gods in the inner scene.
Now, it’s time to reap a hundredfold harvest.
As soon as the thought came to mind, on the banner scroll in his mind, the four characters "God will reward those who work hard" burst out with bright light.
A hundredfold gain.
All the experiences, understandings, thoughts and insights that I had during the cultivation process have increased a hundred times.
At the same time, the prototypes of the "Twenty-four Gods in the Interior" that had just been condensed in the primordial spirit's Dharma, all received a hundredfold blessing, and the quality and quantity of the prototypes of the body and spirit increased a hundredfold in an instant.
The body of the Great Dao that originally took hundreds of years, or even thousands of years, to be cultivated, can be accomplished in just a few years, or no more than ten years at most, with the blessing of a hundredfold harvest.
This kind of cultivation speed is in line with Xu Ke's expectations.
If it really takes hundreds or even thousands of years to build the body of the Great Dao and perfect the state of integration, then... it will be too late.
The Holy Emperor of Dayu has destroyed the world and achieved enlightenment, and Xu Ke has just cultivated into a body, so what else is there to do?
Time passes day by day in practice.
——
While Xu Ke was practicing in seclusion and building the body of the Great Dao, the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty still continued to conquer the world.
Dayu's army pushed beyond the offshore islands and naturally entered the deep sea.
The flying boat battleship has the word "boat" in it. It can go into the sea, dive and fly, it is a piece of cake.
As a result, all kinds of monsters and alien races in the four seas were "severely beaten" by the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty.
Those who surrender quickly can still escape with their lives, while those who surrender late will be directly beaten into "seafood".
During the few years that Xu Ke had been practicing in seclusion, the army of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty had also reached Cangmingyuan.
Xu Ke's move to break up the Merman Kingdom really paid off.
Because of the remaining Sharman tribe in Cangming Abyss, only a small number of Sharks gathered by the Mermaid Princess are left, with a population of no more than one million, and they are considered a very small Sharman tribe.
Therefore, Dayu's army only sent a small force of three warships to show off the power of Heaven.
When the Dayu battleship arrived at the bottom of the Cangming Abyss, Xu Ke, who was practicing in seclusion in the cave, opened his eyes.
With a thought, Xu Ke triggered the restriction on the soul of the Mermaid Princess, and instantly took control of the Mermaid Princess's mind.
"Send the order! Gather the army!"
The Mermaid Princess was dressed in military uniform, holding a coral sword, holding a war flag high, and rushed out of the palace on a seahorse.
After receiving the order, the shark army stepped out of the military camp, gathered behind the shark princess, and headed in the direction from which the Dayu battleship flew.
A moment later, three Dayu warships had arrived at the Mermaid capital near the eye of the sea.
"Soldiers, the enemy wants to destroy our home and invade our territory. We must not let them succeed! Kill!"
The Mermaid Princess raised her sword high and bravely ordered the attack.
"Huh? These fish-man bastards, instead of surrendering, dare to attack us?"
The detachment commanders of the three Dayu battleships laughed angrily at this scene.
"Open fire! Kill all these fish-man bastards, leaving no one behind!"
Auras of spiritual light flashed up, and the three warships simultaneously activated the "White Emperor's Golden Emperor's Flying Sword Array". Countless cold and sharp sword energy struck at the shark army like a violent storm.
With just one blow, the army led by the Mermaid Princess collapsed on the spot.
Countless sharks screamed and fled in all directions.
"Turn on the heavy water divine thunder and blast them to death!"
The three warships blasted out mines condensed with "One Yuan Heavy Water" and started carpet bombing against the Merman Kingdom.
Two hours later, the Merman Kingdom on the bottom of the Cangming Abyss completely disappeared, and the entire undersea territory was flattened.
"The mantis is blocking the car with his arms, and he is overestimating his own abilities!"
The three warships circled for a while, but found no living sharks or the cave hidden by Xu Ke, and then drifted away.
"Done!"
Xu Ke smiled and said, "It should be fine for the time being."
Although the sharks who had fled Cangmingyuan before were still aware of the existence of the Dragon God, but... after this wave of bombings, Xu Ke took the opportunity to collapse the sea eye, and there would be no problem.
What dragon god? Who would really take this evil god from the Merman tribe seriously?
The world is at peace, where can it go? Maybe it would have been blown into pieces by some fleet.
Therefore, Xu Ke's Cangmingyuan Cave has been "buried" in the ruins. Under normal circumstances, no one will have any interest in "excavating the cave".
Xu Ke continued to practice in seclusion.
——
Lingnan.
Yu Pan, the Marquis of Annan in the Dynasty of Dayu Immortal, was demoted to Lingnan due to the punishment of the Holy Emperor, and the entire Annan Marquis Mansion moved to the boundary of Lingnan.
As the only two remaining "Yin Shen monks" in the Lingnan cultivation world, Gui Yuanzi, who became the master of Yuanfu Sect, was naturally summoned by Annan Hou.
The former Taixuan Sect has now become the Annan Marquis Mansion.
Under the guidance of the waiter, Gui Yuanzi stepped into the Taixuan Hall and met with An Nanhou.
"Are you the master of Yuanfu Sect? Not bad."
An Nanhou sat in the hall, glanced at Gui Yuanzi expressionlessly, and nodded slightly, "Lingnan, Nanjiang, Nanzhao, and Cangmang Plain are originally my fiefdom."
"The Southern Wilderness is barren, and I didn't bother to pay attention to it before. Now that I have moved to Lingnan, it will no longer be the same as before. The Southern Wilderness, a land of millions of miles, hundreds of millions of people, and countless monks, all must serve me. Lord.”
Having said this, Annan Hou Yupan raised his head and stared at Gui Yuanzi expressionlessly, "Do you... have any objections?"
"Your Majesty, can you please withdraw your support?"
Gui Yuanzi smiled at An Nanhou.
"Um?"
An Nanhou raised his eyebrows and saw a jade talisman revealed in Gui Yuanzi's hand.
This is... a transformation spell?
Marquis Annan is naturally very familiar with transformation charms. He got many of them from "Fellow Pangu Daoist", and he still has a lot of them with him now.
So is this person a member of "Fellow Taoist Pangu"?
An Nanhou nodded, waved his hand, and ordered the servants in the palace, "Stand back!"
"yes!"
A group of maids hurriedly left.
An Nanhou waved his hand, and a curtain of light enveloped the entire hall, and then said to Gui Yuanzi: "Fellow Taoist, you can speak now."
"I've met fellow Taoist Taiwei."
Gui Yuanzi bowed his hand towards Annan Hou, "Gui Yuanzi, a poor Taoist, is the incarnation of a person known to the prince."
"It turns out to be fellow Taoist Guiyuan."
An Nanhou stood up and returned the courtesy, "Since it is fellow Taoist in person, let's not lie. Fellow Taoist, I will not interfere with your Yuanfu Sect and Taiheng Mountain. You can act independently."
"Thank you, fellow Taoist."
Gui Yuanzi cupped his hands and thanked him, and then said, "It's just... the southern border and the vast plains are mine too."
"ah?"
An Nanhou was stunned for a moment, what a guy!
You occupy two of my four fiefdoms, Lingnan, Nanjiang, Nanzhao, and Cangmangyuan, and you also occupy Yuanfu Sect and Taiheng Mountain in Lingnan?
"This... Fellow Daoist Guiyuan, I'm not stingy. You... are a bit too much!"
Compared with you, I, the Marquis of Annan, do not have as much territory as you! Are you the Marquis of Annan?
"Yuanfu Sect and Taiheng Mountain can be handed over to the prince."
Gui Yuanzi smiled and said, "Cangmang Plains and Southern Xinjiang, of course, the monarch is still the leader of the country. However, how about asking the monarch not to send officials to govern?"
"Is that so? It's not impossible."
An Nanhou smiled and said, "Southern Xinjiang and the vast plains have weak spiritual energy and poor products. There is no need to send officials. It's just..."
Having said this, Marquis Annan raised his eyes and looked at Gui Yuanzi, "Why would you rather abandon Yuanfu Sect and Mount Taiheng to occupy the Southern Border and Cangmang Plains?"
"There's nothing bad to say."
Gui Yuanzi smiled and said: "The Cangmang Immortal Alliance, which now occupies the southern border and the Cangmang Plain, has a close relationship with Pindao. Immortals are also human beings! It is difficult to let go of family ties."
"I see!"
An Nanhou nodded, "Okay! I appoint fellow Taoist as the governor of Southern Xinjiang. The affairs of Southern Xinjiang and Cangmang Plain will be handled by fellow Taoist by yourself!"
"Thank you, fellow Taoist!"
Gui Yuanzi cupped his hands and thanked him.
The matter in Southern Xinjiang and Cangmang Plain has finally been settled.
Marquis Annan still gives face to his allies, otherwise, it would be somewhat troublesome. (End of chapter)
