Chapter 481 The Secret of the Cave
As all the forces in the world left one after another, Wumingshan Taoist Temple returned to its former peace. Even when the ancestors of the Changling lineage moved in, it was only lively for a day or two. Shen Ping's life was as before, every day. In addition to fish and water, it is the avenue of heaven and earth to understand the world here.
It’s just that even with the experience of enlightening the true spirit and the "Path Source True Book", his progress in the five elements is relatively slow. As for the bone of reincarnation, even the bone of law has not yet transformed.
It can be said.
After breaking through to the Immortal Queen, he felt for the first time the difficulty of cultivating the Taoism. The daily growth was like a snail. If he didn't have a virtual panel to check his progress, he would have doubted whether he was wasting his time.
“Fortunately, with the accumulation of Dao fruits from five ghost immortals, the Yin and Yang Law has broken through to the level of earth immortals, and the progress is far ahead of others, but there is still a long way to go before reaching the level of heavenly immortals.”
In the Taoist meditation room.
Shen Ping finished Chaoyang's practice, walked out of the house, and took a walk in the vegetable garden next to the fence. It had just rained, and the fragrance of the earth filled his nose, making him feel calm, and he began to think about the difference between the blessed land and the cave.
Judging from the previous conditions for attracting the earthly immortals of various Dao lineages, the power of Dongtian is very precious. He originally thought that the power of Dongtian was the power of Dao, but now it seems that it is not.
Shen Ping does not believe that this immortal has such a noble idea. If there is a real problem in the world, then there is no need for the imperial court to propose national policies. The immortals in the world will definitely take the lead in taking action against the Taoists. After all, if something goes wrong in the world, the survival of the immortals has been endangered.
Shen Ping immediately picked up the tea and took a sip. Suddenly, a fragrance lingered between his lips and teeth. Then his transformed Five Elements Dao Bones felt a vitality, which continuously made Dao Bones feel a little more enlightened, and also made the true spirit feel. Fresher than ever before, like a fresh wash.
The two of them walked to the pavilion built halfway up the mountainside not far away and sat opposite each other.
Shen Ping said straight to the point.
“Who is your Excellency?”
Xuejing Tianxian frowned. He didn't expect Shen Ping to be so stubborn. However, the purpose of coming here today has been achieved. As long as this Lingzhen doesn't disturb the situation, the reduction of Taoists will continue. The worst is to keep the Changling lineage first. .
Xuejing Celestial Immortal was startled, and then he laughed dumbly, "Lingzhen Earth Immortal, how can you stay out of this world? If only Chang Ling's lineage enjoys privileges, then what's the point of cutting down Taoists?"
“Senior Xuejing came to Wumingshan to win over Shen, right?”
“The same is true for the world of Da Zhao. Countless creatures such as Dao veins, demons, monsters, and people all over the world are absorbing the vitality of the world every day. As the number of Taoists continues to increase, the world will be unable to bear it and problems will arise.”
“The power of the world.”
Xuejing Tianxian stood up and walked to the railing of the pavilion, and continued: "Compared to this vast and vast world, Dongtian Paradise is just a corner of the world. They rely on the world to exist, but are independent of the world, and have their own rules to operate."
“Therefore, the cave is actually the prototype of the world, and only such an environment can create the immortal Taoist fruit. However, when the number of lives and cultivators in the cave increases, problems will arise in the operation of the cave, and it cannot carry more.”
“Now do you know why our Tianshan Mountains, Kunlun and other Taoists support reducing the number of Taoists? The imperial court is doing it for the treasury tax revenue, while my Taoism is for the future.”
“Senior Xuejing, Shen is still very interested in the cave. I wonder if I can go to the Tianshan cave to stay for a few days.”
Shen Ping was stunned.
Shen Ping suddenly came to his senses and realized that this immortal was here to act as a lobbyist.
Xuejing Tianxian said with a smile: "This is the fairy tea cultivated in our Tianshan Mountains. It is nourished by the power of the cave all the year round. The tea leaves have the unique power of the world."
While taking a walk.
"Senior Xuejing, I'm just an earthly immortal. Things in the cave, heaven and even the world are still far away from me. Moreover, I have never said that I would stop the imperial court from reducing Taoists. As long as it does not involve my lineage of elders, I will take care of the rest. I won’t ask.”
See this.
Xuejing Celestial Immortal smiled and said, "Lingzhen Immortal is not willing to be restrained. Naturally, I, Tianshan, will not force others to do anything. I came here just to discuss the Tao with Lingzhen Immortal."
A figure suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
This made Shen Ping look stunned. As a powerful descendant of the true spirit, no one had ever been able to hide his aura in front of him.
From the perspective of understanding the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, the Celestial Immortals are only 50% of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. However, in some strange ways, the Celestial Immortals are more like creators than the Earthly Immortals. This should be caused by the unique rules of this world.
Xuejing Tianxian said seriously.
The gray old man waved his sleeves and robe, "I can't be called a senior, I'm just a little older. It's said that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. Now that Zhao has such an outstanding junior earth immortal like you, it really puts us heavenly immortals to shame."
Looking at this gray-haired old man with an immortal demeanor, he asked softly.
Hear this.
Hear this.
"At present, the number of Taoists in your lineage of Changling is very small, but it does not mean that there will be fewer in the future. So as long as Lingzhen Earth Immortal is willing to pass on the inheritance according to the prescribed number of Taoists, then I, Tianshan, will definitely be grateful."
Shen Ping murmured again.
The gray old man stroked his beard and said with a smile, "I am Bai Wengzi from Tianshan Mountain, my Taoist name is Xuejing."
“Lingzhen Earth Immortal.”
Shen Ping understood immediately and saluted, "It turns out to be Senior Xuejing Tianxian."
"On the Road?"
Xuejing Tianxian nodded and pointed to the tea on the stone table: "Please."
Shen Ping said casually: "Let's talk about the future matters later. Shen only cares about the present."
Chatted a few words briefly.
This made him look surprised, "What is this tea?"
His purpose in coming to this world is to understand as many avenues of heaven and earth as possible, and then perfect the power of the top avenue, Hundong Avenue. He will not get involved in the battle to reduce Taoists.
With a flick of Xuejing Tianxian's fingers, two cups of tea appeared on the stone table in the pavilion. Such a trick that made things out of nothing also allowed Shen Ping to see what Tianxian was capable of.
The Hundong Avenue is originally a condensed prototype of the small world. The more real it is, the stronger its power. Therefore, if one can understand the operation of the cave sky, it will be of great help to understand the Hundong Avenue in the future.
“Of course, I, Tianshan, welcome Lingzhen Earth Immortal to come at any time.”
As he spoke, he handed Shen Ping a token, "With this token, you can enter the cave by activating the power of the Dao Bone Law within the Tianshan Mountains."
“Thank you.”
After Xuejing Tianxian left.
However, when he learned that Shen Ping was unwilling to interfere with the reduction of Taoists, Emei Tianxian said earnestly: "Lingzhen Dixian, you are powerful. If you don't stop it now, you will definitely be bullied by Tianshan Kunlun in the future."
Shen Ping said calmly: "I have my own discretion in this matter." Immortal Emei suddenly became cold, "We have different ways, so we don't want to work together."
Leave directly after finishing speaking.
…
half year later.
Around the mountains where the Tianshan Mountains are located.
Shen Ping took out the token and soon felt a pulling force. He did not resist and was immediately taken to the Cave Heaven Paradise in Tianshan Mountain by the pulling force.
Just entered the cave.
Abundant and rich vitality rushes towards the face. This kind of vitality is nearly a hundred times richer than the purple energy that rises every day outside. If one practices here, the cultivation speed will be more than a hundred times faster. Even an ordinary Taoist can become a real person.
Except.
He also felt a restraint, as if suppressed by rules. Even his true spirit was difficult to use, which was similar to some of the rules of the blessed land.
"Is this the cave..."
Shen Ping now knows why the Dao veins of the world's famous mountains and rivers continue to stretch into Spring. Every thousand years, true kings are born, and there is an endless supply of earth immortals. With this unique environment, as long as the cave exists, it is easy for true kings to be born. Breakthrough to the Earth Immortal level.
“The fact that Lingzhen Earthly Immortal can come to my cave in Tianshan Mountain really makes this place shine!”
Xuejing Tianxian smiled and greeted him.
Shen Ping handed over his hand.
“Let’s go and have a small gathering in my Dongtian Taoist Hall.”
Xuejing Tianxian immediately called the Taoists in the cave to prepare the beautiful scenery of fairy fruits.
Come to the Taoist Temple.
Shen Ping carefully felt the difference between the cave heaven and the blessed land. Although the true spirit was bound by the rules, he still noticed that there were different vitalities in the cave heaven. This surprised him. You must know that Taoists who can possess multiple Taoist bones are not at all. Genius, this kind of talent is very difficult to cultivate, let alone cultivating to the level of immortal, even at the real person level is very difficult, because it requires too many resources, and no Taoist lineage is willing to cultivate it.
Besides, he did not sense any other avenues of vitality in Xuejing Tianxian.
While drinking.
He asked out his curiosity.
Xuejing Celestial Immortal laughed. In fact, every Earth Immortal will have this kind of curiosity when they go to the cave. He drank the wine slowly and said: "Lingzhen Earth Immortal, you are condensing the blessed land. You should know that you can condense at will in the blessed land." Items?"
Shen Ping nodded, "Yes, the blessed land consumes very little vitality, but there are also limitations. Some rare items are difficult to condense."
Xue Jingtian's heart turned over, and Xue Tai Sui was quickly condensed. "All items can be condensed in the cave, but even if Xue Tai Sui is condensed, it will only have its form. If you really want Xue Tai Sui to have medicinal effects, just The power of the cave must be consumed.”
"The power of the cave is the power of the world. This is what every immortal absorbs from the world when he transforms into the cave. It contains all the laws. This is a gift from the world. When you break through to the immortal, you will understand .”
"After the formation of Dongtian, it will continue to absorb the power of the world every day and every year. The stronger the strength, the higher the efficiency of absorption. However, it is very difficult for Dongtian to continue to transform. It has been 50,000 years since I broke through to the immortal world. But he is still in the early stage of becoming an immortal."
Shen Ping suddenly realized that it turned out to be a gift from the world. No wonder there are many laws that are alive. "Senior Xuejing, so it means that the breakthrough from the earthly immortal to the heavenly immortal is not just a simple understanding of the great way of heaven and earth?"
Xuejing Celestial Immortal laughed, "Of course not. Understanding the Great Way of Heaven and Earth is only one of the conditions. If you want to break through the Celestial Immortal, you must transform into a blessed place. There is no shortcut to the transformation of a blessed place. It can only be accumulated step by step. During this period, You must also use your own understanding of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth to cleanse it. It took me more than 8,000 years of accumulation to achieve my breakthrough, and I still had the help of my seniors from the Tianshan Dao Lineage, otherwise it would have taken much longer."
“Most of the earthly immortals cannot survive the transformation and their lifespan is exhausted.”
Speaking of which.
He looked at Shen Ping meaningfully and said: "Even if you want to improve by absorbing the blessed lands of other earth immortals, it won't work. The blessed lands are different from the cave heaven. What type of Taoist bones you have will determine the vitality of the blessed lands. If you rashly absorb other blessed lands, It will only cause your blessed land to collapse."
Shen Ping knew that the Xuejing Immortal had guessed the reason for his rapid improvement, and he didn't care about it.
“Of course, if you are not slow in comprehending the great road of heaven and earth, then the transformation of the blessed land will also be accelerated.”
Listen to this.
Shen Ping humbly asked: "During the transformation of the blessed land, apart from the cleansing of the heaven and earth, what else is needed?"
“Treasures from heaven and earth.”
"What kind of heavenly materials and earthly treasures are you looking for in the blessed land where the Taoist bones are condensed? In addition, if you have the power of the cave, it is better than any heavenly materials and earthly treasures."
“Lingzhen Dixian, the conditions of our Tianshan remain unchanged. As long as you join, the power of the cave will still be given to you.”
Xuejing Tianxian said.
I have to say that Tianshan's sincerity is indeed very high, but Shen Ping has his own considerations. Besides, there is no free lunch in the world, and he does not want to be restricted by anything.
Stayed in Tianshan Cave for half a month.
He took in the scenery of the cave before leaving and went directly to the Kunlun Cave. It was similar to the Tianshan Cave, except that the scope of the Kunlun Cave was smaller. Obviously, the Kunlun Celestial Immortal was not as powerful as the Tianshan Xuejing Celestial Immortal.
The caves of other Dao veins may be large or small, but the basic rules of operation are the same.
“What is the law of operation of the cave sky? Where are the nodes where various vitalities merge with each other? How to balance it?”
These are the questions that arise in Shen Ping's mind after visiting many caves. He knows that if he can figure these out, it will be easier to condense the prototype of the small world of Hundong Avenue in the future.
But figuring it out doesn’t happen overnight.
“It seems that if you want to break through to heaven, you need to slowly immerse yourself in this world.”
After understanding this.
Shen Ping began to practice without paying attention to what was going on outside the window. He didn't care about the storm of Taoist reductions that was once again happening outside. He only had some say in the area around Jianzhou.
Fifty years later.
After daily fish and water, Yin Shu broke through to the level of the true king, which made the whole Lingyin Temple in the precarious situation overjoyed. They immediately passed the position of the master of the temple to Yin Shu. Unfortunately, after knowing that cultivation is everything, Yin Shu Like Shen Ping, he focuses on fishing and cultivation.
Another hundred years passed in this way.
Sister Jianmei finally broke through to the True Lord. She is the backbone of reincarnation. After breaking through the True Lord, her Taoist strength was extremely strong. True Lords at the same level were no match for her. Only a True Lord with two or three thousand years of Taoism could suppress her.
The birth of two true kings in succession brought Lingyin Temple back to its former peak. Even the imperial court did not dare to do anything to Lingyin Temple at will.
