Longevity starts with learning.

Chapter 1030 Undercurrent, the Road Ahead

Chu Mu was a little intoxicated, but he didn't dare to delay. He did not forget that when he sneaked into this place, he was not the owner of this place, but just a "thief". Once someone stepped into this place, he would definitely be discovered.

In the Qianzuo League, those who can step into this core inheritance place are no small figures.

Once discovered, with his current level of cultivation, it would be very difficult for him to walk out of Qianzuo Mountain alive.

One heavenly monument after another points directly to the mysterious inheritance of the Mahayana Immortal Path.

Chu Mu didn't even have time to comprehend anything. He hastily took over the twelve inheritances that led directly to the Immortal Path, and conveniently disappeared from the ninth floor of the Chongxiao Tower without any hesitation.

At this time, on the first floor of Chongxiao Tower, many disciples of Qianzuo League were waiting in front of the door to register.

Behind the long wooden table, the man in blue shirt was still writing with a pen and ink as usual.

If there were any high-level cultivators present at this moment, they would certainly be able to realize that the figure holding the pen and dipped in ink is just a fake body condensed by rules.

With a wisp of divine consciousness and a wisp of rules to carry, it becomes a kind of incarnation.

However, this level of the Chongxiao Tower only houses some introductory skills and secret techniques, and those who come here are only low-level disciples of the Qianzuo League. Naturally, they cannot detect the trick of this rule-based fake body.

And with Chu Mu's return, this fake body of rules also merged silently with his real body.

Although people were coming and going, no one noticed the changes.

Picking up the pen and dipping it in ink, Chu Mu completed his duties in an orderly manner.

The first floor of Chongxiao Tower is extremely vast, and it has more than one entrance and exit. Moreover, not all disciples of Qianzuo League can enter at will. Their authority and merits are restricted.

Although things are busy, when you divide it up, it's actually quite relaxing.

Chu Mu leaned leisurely on the recliner, holding a book in his hand. He seemed immersed in the book, but in fact all his attention was focused on the twelve inheritances that directly led to the immortal way.

According to his understanding, there is no obvious difference in quality among the twelve inheritances of Qianzuo League.

More importantly, it is about the matching of talents and the fact that the strong are respected.

According to the custom of Qianzuo League, those who have received the true teachings of Qianzuo League are eligible to access these twelve core inheritances.

All the leaders of Qian Zuo Alliance and even the supreme elders in history were basically all disciples of Qian Zuo, with basically no exceptions.

With the blessing of a touch of spiritual light, compared with his previous hasty swallowing, Chu Mu is undoubtedly much more meticulous about the twelve inheritances he has obtained.

Just like peeling off silk from a cocoon, he analyzed and comprehended the vast mysteries of the twelve inheritances of the Qianzuo League bit by bit.

"Uncle Master."

At some point, a voice suddenly sounded in front of the door, awakening Chu Mu from his distracted state.

The woman had a graceful figure and a beautiful face. She was wearing an elegant white gauze dress and holding two jade slips.

Seeing Chu Mu looking at her, the woman handed over the disciple token respectfully: "Uncle Master, I want to exchange these two magics."

Chu Mu glanced at the woman, then casually took the disciple token from her and registered it in the book.

Name: Mu Yunshan, cultivation level: late stage of Qi training, borrowing first-grade superior ice curtain technique, first-grade ultimate technique, frost technique...

After completing the registration, the woman took back her disciple token and left respectfully.

Chu Mu glanced at the back of the woman leaving, frowning slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

Although this woman seems to be only at the Qi training stage, it is only on the surface.

His true cultivation level is not simple.

With his Nascent Soul cultivation reaching perfection, although he is not considered a powerful being in the Qianzuo League, he is obviously not a weakling either.

With the perfect cultivation of Nascent Soul, he disguised himself as a Qi training cultivator...

He rolled up his sleeves and a suspended light curtain appeared.

The image on the light screen moved, accurately locking onto the figure of the woman just now.

All his movements from the moment he stepped into the Chongxiao Tower to the moment he completed the registration and walked out of the Chongxiao Tower were revealed extremely clearly.

On the first floor of Chongxiao Tower, there are eight gates.

The Eight Gates refer to the eight portals.

A formation refers to the teleportation formation.

Judging from the whereabouts of this woman, it seems that she is looking for a suitable magic, but in the process of searching, she also just happens to include the eight gates formation on the first floor of the Chongxiao Tower within the range of her whereabouts.

Chu Mu chuckled. It seemed that he, a cultivator from the lower world, was not the only one who had plans against the Qianzuo Alliance.

He shook his head, and the image on the light screen shattered, leaving no trace, and he no longer struggled.

Using a scroll as a cover and suppressing all distracting thoughts, he once again immersed himself in the twelve inheritances of the Qianzuo League.

Time passed by little by little, and the twelve mysteries of the Qianzuo League's inheritance that directly led to the great immortal path were gradually revealed to Chu Mu day by day.

The path ahead of the sixth level, which was originally dark and hard to see the light of dawn, gradually became clearer and brighter under the guidance of these twelve inheritances.

The sun rises and sets, and in the blink of an eye, several years have passed.

On this day, after many years, Chu Mu, who had become accustomed to being one of the many low-level disciples of the Qianzuo League, finally ended his duties in the Chongxiao Tower.

The sun was rising, Chu Mu stopped in front of the Chongxiao Tower and looked out. The Qianzuo Mountains stretched out in a long line. The Qianzuo Alliance, which had been passed down for millions of years, was still as prosperous as ever in the Qianzuo Mountains, without any sign of decline.

But most people may not know that beneath this prosperous surface, there are deep undercurrents and numerous crises.

Even though Chu Mu, an outsider, has not truly integrated into the Qianzuo League, he can still get a glimpse of some of the context.

He looked back and saw that the Chongxiao Tower was reaching straight into the sky, and there was still an endless stream of disciples from the Qianzuo League coming in and out of the gate.

Looking at this scene, Chu Mu couldn't help but be speechless.

Perhaps it was precisely because of his extraordinary status as an outsider that he could see things more clearly.

After all, no matter how powerful the Qianzuo League is, it is impossible for them to arrange a sixth-level powerful being to hide and sit on the first floor of the Chongxiao Tower.

He was guarding the first floor of Chongxiao Tower, in the real dark, so he could naturally see some existences hidden in the darkness.

Especially since the appearance of the female disciple named Mu Yunshan, in just a few years, he has discovered at least a dozen cultivators who were only at the Qi training and foundation building stages on the surface, but were actually at the Nascent Soul or even Spirit Transformation stages, appearing in the Chongxiao Tower.

It is obviously unlikely that these beings are real disciples of the Qianzuo League. They must be foreign cultivators with other intentions.

As for what they are planning, judging by the crowds gathered at Chongxiao Tower, the possibility that it is related to Chongxiao Tower is obviously very high.

Although it is still unclear whether the Qianzuo Alliance has noticed the undercurrents surrounding the Chongxiao Tower, it is obvious that regardless of whether the Qianzuo Alliance has noticed it or not, the Chongxiao Tower is no longer peaceful.

If he continues to hide here, he might get into trouble.

He had already achieved the purpose of this trip, so there was naturally no need to put himself at risk.

As for what secrets are hidden behind this Chongxiao Tower...

Chu Mu's eyes moved slightly, and he finally suppressed the desire to spy in his heart, took a step forward, and floated down the winding steps. Having joined the Qianzuo League for many years, he naturally had a cave in Qianzuo Mountain.

The entire Qianzuo Mountain, with the sixth-level spiritual vein of the main peak as its core and extending along the mountain terrain, has evolved into dozens of spiritual veins of varying sizes.

His cave was located at the foot of the Zuo'an Peak not far from the Chongxiao Tower.

Although there is only one fourth-order spiritual vein on Zuo'an Peak, the spiritual energy of the spiritual vein is divided among thousands of caves.

But the scenery at the foot of the peak on the left bank, surrounded by mountains and water, is truly unique.

No matter he once faced a bleak future or is now contemplating his path to the sixth level, his need for spiritual energy has already dropped to the lowest point.

In his furnace of heaven and earth, there is still a huge amount of chaotic energy that has not been refined.

As long as he wanted, the Heaven and Earth Furnace could provide him with massive amounts of energy at any time. There was no need to even convert it into spiritual energy. It could be directly transformed into furnace essence as energy to improve his cultivation.

However, when one reaches the realm of rules, the improvement of cultivation and magic power are only a by-product. The key still lies in the understanding of the rules.

If one's understanding of the rules has not reached a certain level, the forced increase in magic power will only be illusory.

For miles around, there is only this lakeside villa standing tall. Chu Mu walked on the waves, and every step he took caused ripples on the lake.

The array prohibition talisman was manipulated, and the mist around the lakeside villa surged, forming a passage leading directly to the gate of the villa.

Chu Mu's figure flashed and he appeared in the lakeside villa.

The next moment, the surging water mist covered the water mist passage in just an instant, and the thick water mist filled the air, once again covering the lakeside villa.

Only the faint fluctuations of the forbidden formation proved the existence of such a villa on the lakeside.

In the courtyard, Chu Mu sat cross-legged with a scarlet fire lotus floating in front of him. It was so bright that even the air seemed to be swaying under the flickering fire lotus.

A deep sky blue jade fell into the fire lotus and in an instant, it was refined into a ball of blue liquid.

Immediately afterwards, several regular crystals condensed by himself fell into it and mixed with the sky blue liquid.

Following the guidance of his spiritual consciousness, lines of inscriptions were engraved one after another, and the ball of light blue and deep liquid also slowly changed shape.

This lasted for nearly an hour before the blazing flames slowly died out.

The final product was a sky blue jade slip, just like an ordinary Tianhen jade slip.

The facts are somewhat similar.

The main body of the jade slip is the Sky Mark Crystal.

However, after he smelted it with the rules, this Tianhen Jade Slip underwent another transformation.

In this spiritual world where the path to immortality is flourishing and leading to the great perfection of immortality, the existence of the Tianhen Jade Slip is undoubtedly somewhat unworthy of its name.

The Sky Mark Jade Slip bears the mark of the sky.

The existence of rules is obviously not something that can be compared to a few traces.

Therefore, it is often difficult for the Sky Mark Jade Slip to imprint the mystery of true rules.

Forcible branding will only result in exceeding the carrying capacity of the Sky Mark, and all efforts will be in vain.

In this spiritual world, the inheritance carriers of a higher level than the Tianhen Jade Slip are jade slips with regular properties, or corresponding spiritual objects.

The Sky Mark Jade Slip that he refined belongs to this category.

Chu Mu held the jade slip of rules in his hand, and concentrated his mind for a moment. A ray of his spiritual consciousness penetrated into the blank jade slip of rules, so he picked up a pen and dipped it in ink, and began to engrave on the jade slip of rules like outlining on a piece of white paper.

The inscribed contents were derived from the twelve heavenly tablet inheritances that directly pointed to the immortal path.

In other words, he wanted to obtain the mysterious essence of the twelve inheritances to pave the way for Chu Mu to reach the sixth level.

Take the essence and discard the dross, and integrate it into the way of baking furnace...

With the blessing of a touch of spiritual light, Chu Mu was already immersed in it.

With twelve inheritances, his path to the sixth level was undoubtedly completely clear.

However, this clear path ahead was quite different from what he had originally expected.

According to his original understanding, the Nascent Soul Stage is the initial contact with the rules, the Spirit Transformation Stage is the control of some of the rules, and the Dharmakaya Stage is the fusion and embodiment of the rules.

The state of fusion above the Dharmakāya, as the name suggests, should be the fusion of rules and essence, energy and spirit.

To achieve this, one obviously needs a very high level of understanding of the rules.

However, judging from these twelve inheritances, this is not the case.

He did not make any mistakes below the sixth level, but he made a wrong assumption about the path to immortality above the sixth level.

The inheritance of the twelve paths all explain one fact very clearly.

That is the sixth-level Dharmakāya, which is another key turning point in the practice of the immortal path.

This is just like the third-order golden elixir realm, where one can condense a golden elixir, a sword pill, or even a Gu pill...

Things like this are like a critical fork in the road. The path chosen at the third level will directly affect the cultivation of immortals after the third level.

The same is true for the sixth-level Dharmakāya.

The decision made at the sixth level will directly affect the cultivation of immortals above the sixth level.

And this so-called choice was completely contrary to his previous inference.

The seventh level of fusion is not just a fusion of rules and spirit.

Strictly speaking, it's not that simple.

If the practice of the sixth level is biased towards rules, then the promotion to the seventh level will be based mainly on rules. If we use a precise term to describe it, it is probably to be in harmony with the Tao.

Use the soul to understand the rules, control the rules, become one with the rules, and thus achieve a wonderful state of being one with heaven and earth.

The importance of the body and soul will be further weakened, or even completely abandoned.

Even the existence of essence, energy and spirit, and even the essence of the human body, will gradually evolve into a product of similar rules and deviate from the essence of essence, energy and spirit.

Such a state is almost the darling of the rules. It can be said to be an extension of the rules and a direct manifestation of the will of the rules.

It can even be like the power of heaven and earth in the Nascent Soul realm, using limited power of rules to leverage more powerful power of rules.

But if one wants to maintain the essence of essence, energy and spirit, and sustain the existence of flesh and blood creatures, then one needs to focus on one's own essence, energy and spirit when practicing at the sixth level.

Using the physical body as a carrier to imprint the rules, the essence, energy and spirit are integrated with the rules to create a perfect body of rules, thus reaching a special state of integration where I am the rules.

In this case, the sixth level of cultivation not only requires the understanding of the rules, but also requires the tempering of a body that is strong enough to carry the rules...
