Best Ascension

Half a day later, Zhao Sheng accompanied Qingshan Patriarch and the two to the edge of the secret mansion with a smile on his face, and then sent them out of the secret mansion.

After a while, Zhao Shengfei returned to the terrace and sat down on the jade couch again. With a flick of his right hand, a volume of ancient books fell into his hand.

He carefully opened the ancient book, read it with hunger and hunger, completely forgetting what happened just now.

If someone stood behind Zhao Sheng at this time and looked at the pages of the ancient books, they would be extremely surprised to find that the pages were completely white without even a single word.

The reason for this is that this unnamed ancient book was "handwritten" by Zhao Xuanjing with the power of Yuanshen. If one does not have Yuanying-level divine thoughts and does not know the specific "frequency" of divine thoughts, it is impossible to understand the "text" on it .

The cover of this ancient book doesn't even have a name, but it is one of the most important details of the Nantian Zhao family.

Because this book records all the cultivation experience of a true king of Huashen, it can be said that every word is a pearl, and the words are big and righteous.

The ancients said: "True pass on a word, false pass on thousands of volumes of books"

In Zhao Sheng's view, this unnamed ancient book is undoubtedly a "classic handed down from generation to generation".

Just a few times of rough reading, he gained a lot, solved countless doubts in his mind, and thus generally saw the way forward in practice.

Although he also stepped into the realm of Yuanying in his previous life, because he had no family and no sect, he was not very clear about the path of Yuanying's future cultivation, especially the various joints and difficulties in practice, and he was even more confused.

As a result, in the decades after he was promoted to Nascent Soul, his progress in cultivation was negligible, and his strength improved at a frighteningly slow rate.

But after reading this classic, Zhao Sheng suddenly realized.

It turned out that it wasn't that I was slow in progress, but that I didn't find the real direction of practice at all.

From the day he started cultivating immortals, Zhao Sheng knew that cultivating immortals is divided into four stages: "refining essence to transform qi, refining qi to restore spirit, refining spirit to return to emptiness, and refining emptiness to join the Tao".

Yuanying is the fourth realm after refining Qi, building a foundation, and Jindan. From the perspective of the four major stages, it is in the second half of "refining Qi and returning to God".

At this time, "refining qi" is no longer the focus of cultivation for immortal cultivators, but "returning gods" is.

The word "return" actually expresses the true meaning of the practice of the Yuanying Realm.

"Return" also means to complete.

You must know that an important symbol of becoming a true king of Huashen is to become a primordial spirit.

Therefore, the most important thing for immortal cultivators in the Nascent Soul Realm is to achieve the primordial spirit in the stage of "refining Qi and returning to the spirit".

However, Yuanshen is based on the Dao, and it is as difficult as reaching the sky to achieve success.

Why did the Yuanying ancestors flock to Tianwai Xuanying so much?It's just because there is a certain chance that there is a certain chance that there is a trace of the law of the great way in the mysterious mile outside the sky.

These "secrets" have always been passed on by word of mouth, without leaving any words.

Zhao Sheng was a lonely person in his previous life, so how could he know such top-secret information.

Now that he finished reading it, he beat his chest and stamped his feet, and sighed: The monopoly of knowledge is really a great harm to cultivating immortals!

Thinking of this, Zhao Sheng couldn't help feeling emotional. He had planted trees for several lifetimes, and now a towering tree finally grew in his family, which could protect him in his practice and show him the way forward.

The cultivation of the Nascent Soul Realm is simple to say, it is nothing more than the word "returning the gods".

But in fact, ninety-nine out of ten Yuanying ancestors can't even reach the threshold of transforming gods, so how can they become Yuanshen.

There are three reasons:

First, there is a lack of scriptures that directly point to the soul;

The second reason is that the understanding of the Dao law is insufficient, and the foundation of the primordial spirit cannot be consolidated.

The third reason is that the spiritual energy in the Tianzhu world is thin, and there are very few places with abundant spiritual energy, which can meet the cultivation needs of the Yuanying ancestors.

On the surface, the ancestors of Yuanying are all lofty and at ease like immortals, but in fact they are a bunch of miserable "poor people".

If you are satisfied with the Nascent Soul Realm and stop moving forward, it's okay, at least you can enjoy a thousand years of bliss and bliss.

But if you want to fight for a higher realm, it will be hard work.

Let's not mention refining the gods for the time being, only talk about the increase in power.

Because the level of mana is too high, the aura environment below the third-order spiritual vein is not enough for the cultivation of the Nascent Soul cultivator.

Even if it can be satisfied, but the speed of refining spiritual energy from the heavens and the earth is so slow that it makes people despair.

Therefore, on weekdays, Yuanying ancestors usually have three ways of cultivation, one is to practice with top-grade or even top-grade spirit stones, and the other is to use high-grade spirit pills with the lowest third-grade one.And the most extravagant and the fastest entry is to directly refine the Xuanying outside the sky.

But the Xuanying outside the sky is so precious and rare that even Zhao Xuanjing is reluctant to "waste" like this.

You must know that a sufficient number of Xuanying from the outside world is indispensable for opening the Ascension Formation.

Although the Ascension Formation is no longer usable at this time, what about the future?What if the Ascension Formation is repaired by a certain talent one day in the future?

It can be summed up in one sentence.The declining aura environment of Tianzhu Realm can no longer satisfy the cultivation of Nascent Soul Realm.

If you want to achieve the primordial spirit, you can't just rely on "rolling to death at the same level" and "grabbing opportunities", after all, you can't do without the support of heaven.

Coincidentally, Zhao Sheng has great merits and virtues in his body now, and the most indispensable thing is the luck of heaven.

So as long as the resources are sufficient, he has a great possibility to jump to the top of this world.

Leaving aside those too distant futures, the focus falls on the present.

Taking the Nascent Soul Realm as an example, this realm can be divided into early, middle and late stages. The basis for the division is very complicated, but there is also a set of simple and rough criteria for judging.

It can be distinguished by the "height" of the Nascent Soul body. From one inch to three inches is the early stage of the Nascent Soul, four to six inches is the middle stage, and seven to nine inches is the late stage of the Nascent Soul.

When the height exceeds one foot, there is a high probability that the dharma body will transform into a primordial spirit.Of course not necessarily, there are some Yuanying Patriarchs who are super powerful, but they don't have enough understanding of the law of the Dao, and it is difficult to become a God of Transformation after all.

How about enjoying the shade under the big tree!
To Zhao Sheng's great surprise, in the second half of the ancient book, there was actually a record of a cultivation method for the primordial spirit called "Yuan Chu Jue".

According to the records in the book, this method was bestowed by the power of the upper realm.Zhao Xuanjing once said in the book that the reason why he was able to successfully achieve the primordial spirit was that this method played a great role in it.

The whole "Yuan Chu Jue" only has more than a thousand words, the words are ancient and obscure, and the words are subtle and meaningful, which makes people feel confused at first glance.

However, there is no comment on this exercise in the book, Zhao Sheng does not think that Zhao Xuanjing forgot to write it, he must have a deep meaning in doing so.

Zhao Sheng read it many times, and determined that "Yuan Chu Jue" should be an "orthodox" Yuanshen law, characterized by Zhongzheng and peace, and there is no worry of going crazy.

The eight characters at the beginning of it are "the beginning of one yuan, and the renewal of all phenomena", which seems to point out the main purpose of the practice, and it seems to contain countless deep meanings.

Zhao Sheng had read these eight characters no less than a thousand times, and after chewing them over and over again, he had a flash of inspiration and grasped a trace of the essence.

The renewal of Vientiane is actually a "change".Because everything is "changing", so is the Dao.

For monk Yuanying, the key to the "transformation" of the soul to the Yuanshen lies in the initial "one", and Yuan Naiyuan can also point it out.

At the beginning of one yuan, it should be said that based on the law of one way, one can realize the "change" of one way from the world and all phenomena, and then one can achieve the primordial spirit.

Zhao Sheng didn't know if his understanding was correct, but
With a thought in his mind, the Book of Hundred Worlds slowly rose from the depths of the Sea of ​​Souls, and after flying into the air, the pages of the book were opened, casting streams of clear light.

When he turned to the fifth page, Zhao Sheng stared at the lifelike "small world" of the star sea, and a huge amount of information flooded into his mind instantly...

After a dozen or so breaths, the Book of Hundred Worlds sank into the depths of his soul again.

Well!
Zhao Sheng was dizzy and couldn't help rubbing the center of his brows with his hands, but there was a joyful smile on his face.

With the Star God World as a reference, Zhao Sheng was sure that his understanding was correct.

But compared to this, he actually has more gains.

At that time, he used the form of existence of the star gods to deduce the secret art of "Xingmen Thousand Hearts".The original intention is to achieve the ability of one mind and one thousand uses by splitting the soul.

But now, Zhao Sheng found out that this soul skill actually has a more important purpose.

It actually has the rudimentary form of a primordial spirit method, but a part is missing.

If the essence of "Xing Shen Qian Xin Jue" is "division", then what it lacks is the word "harmony".

When the mastery of this method reaches the realm of a thousand hearts, when Zhao Sheng comprehends the Dao, he will be able to comprehend a certain law of the Dao from a thousand different angles, just like a thousand Yuanying ancestors participating together.

Wait until the heat is almost ready, and then reverse the cultivation method, from a thousand souls fused into a hundred souls, then to ten souls, and finally merged into one.

If his idea can be successful, it shouldn't be difficult to achieve Yuanshen.

Thinking of this, Zhao Sheng's mind was full of inspiration, and he had a certain premonition that his idea would surely succeed!
"Huh? Everything went so smoothly! Could it be that this is the meaning of everything that is favored by heaven?!" He suddenly thought strangely in his heart.

An hour later, Zhao Sheng got up suddenly and flew down the terrace.

Not long after, he came to a core training room underground in the secret mansion.

The aura here is extremely strong, enough for a Jindan real person to practice.

But Zhao Sheng didn't care about these "thin" auras.

He waved out a formula, and a layer of shielding barriers immediately appeared on the walls around the training room.

Then, Zhao Sheng sat cross-legged on the thousand-year-old warm jade bed, and with a flick of his right hand, there was a top-quality spirit stone that was as bright as the sun and had a vortex of spiritual energy inside.

Then, put the spirit stone in the dantian, clasped both hands together, and the Nascent Soul Dharma Body in the soul sea is also sitting cross-legged in the air.

The flowing spiritual thoughts gushed out from the center of the eyebrows, penetrated into the top-grade spirit stone, and then under the guidance of the spiritual thoughts, strands of extremely pure spiritual energy slowly precipitated and submerged into the sea of ​​dantian qi.

For a while, a "drizzle" began to fall over the dantian qi sea.After the raindrops fell into the mana "lake", they were quickly assimilated into a trace of mana.

This process starts over and over again, and the speed is very slow.

……

Three months later, Zhao Sheng sighed softly, put the exhausted top-quality spirit stones into the storage bag, and then got up and walked out of the training room.

He was already prepared for the slow progress of his cultivation, and he was not as impatient as other novice Nascent Souls.

With the buffer of these three months, the whole Zhao clan should have gotten used to the fact that there is another Yuanying ancestor in the family.

Just at this time, Zhao Sheng's "quietness and thoughtfulness" should also go around the family's various places according to the plan.

The purpose is not to meet the descendants of the clan, but for the Daozang of the Zhao Clan in Nantian.

It is necessary to know that in practice, it is most taboo to build a car behind closed doors, and it is a must to learn from others to broaden your knowledge.

As soon as he left the gate, he saw the young man in green robe guarding the door.

As soon as Zhao Sheng came out of the customs, the man immediately bowed and saluted: "Greetings, Patriarch!"

Zhao Sheng said casually: "The old man has been in seclusion for three months, is there any major event in the secret mansion?"

"Patriarch, there is nothing wrong with the secret mansion, but the ancestors of the family have sent congratulatory gifts one after another, and the elders also asked when will you hold the Nascent Soul Ceremony?"

"Where is the thing?" Zhao Sheng's tone was very indifferent.

Hearing this, the young man in green robe quickly took out a storage bag from the bag and handed it to the ancestor.

Zhao Sheng took it casually, and his spiritual sense poked into it to take a look, he couldn't help showing a bit of surprise.

The ancestors of the Yuanying ancestors of the Zhao family are really very real, and they are really generous in their actions.Five of them directly sent a top-quality spirit stone, and although the rest gave different congratulatory gifts, such as magic-level charm girl puppets, large magic boats, spirit mine land deeds, etc., they were all worth less than a top-quality spirit stone. Stone up and down.

It can be said that the value of these gifts alone is several times richer than Zhao Sheng's net worth.

It can be seen from this, the arrogance of Zhao's Yuanying!

Later, Zhao Sheng put the storage bag into his arms, and then ordered the young man in green robe to back down,
Not long after, he had arrived under the flat peach tree, and with a wave of his hand, a ray of Dharma light sank into the trunk in an instant and disappeared.

A moment later, a layer of emerald light suddenly appeared on a trunk of the flat peach tree. After a moment of distortion and blurring, a fat old man with a ruddy complexion and full of blessings suddenly emerged from the tree.

"Old sixteen, the old man is sleeping soundly, why did you wake up the old man?" The fat old man complained hastily as soon as he appeared.

Zhao Sheng said with a smile: "Second Patriarch, I have to go out of the mountain. The secret mansion cannot be guarded, so I have to wake you up. Please forgive me."

Hearing this, the fat old man said with a strange expression: "I see, did you change your mind?"

"No, I just need to go to the family's Taoist library to look through the books." Zhao Sheng replied truthfully.

This fat old man is named Zhao Qingbi, and he is the only surviving elder of the Zhao family.

But back then, when Zhao Sheng was so powerful, all his peers were overwhelmed by himself, so he was not very familiar with his peers.

After he left and never returned, Zhao Qingbi suddenly stood out from the clan and eventually became the second Yuanying patriarch of the Zhao family.

Therefore, Zhao Qingbi is highly respected in the Nantian Zhao Clan. Although his strength is not as good as that of Zhao Changdu in the late Yuanying period, his status is only second to the ancestor Zhao Xuanjing, so he is honored as the second ancestor.

The third ancestor was reduced to Zhao Changdu.

As for why Zhao Sheng is the Sixteenth Patriarch instead of the Fourteenth Patriarch, the reason is very simple.

Because in the Nether God Realm there are still two Zhao family Yuanying Zhao Haikui and Zhao Youxuan lurking.

These two were from the Anbu of the Zhao Clan and were rarely known to outsiders.

Ugh!
The fat old man sighed, waved his hands and said: "Go, go! Without you, the old man can't sleep again. You know, three years of sleep. The old man wants to live another thousand or eight hundred years."

Zhao Sheng smiled but didn't answer.

This old boy looks harmless, but in fact his hands are bloody. After all, he is a strong man who came out of the war between the two worlds, and ruthlessness is indispensable.

Furthermore, just listen to Zhao Qingbi's words, anyone who believes everything is a fool.

Zhao Sheng knew very well that the inside and outside of the secret mansion were always under the surveillance of the old boy.

The "sleep" he said actually meant that the soul and spirit merged into the ancient flat peach tree, not only for the purpose of monitoring the secret palace, but more importantly, for enlightenment with the help of the spiritual peach tree.

There are tens of thousands of paths to the primordial spirit, and Zhao Qingbi used the ancient spiritual roots to comprehend the wooden avenue, which can be called a different path.

Although the success rate is not high, there is some hope.

What's even more powerful is that even if he fails, he can still melt into the heart of the spirit tree, maintain his sanity, and thus "extend his life" for thousands of years.

A few days ago, when Zhao Sheng noticed Zhao Qingbi's thoughts, he couldn't help admiring this person's imagination, he really dared to think and do it!
