Taoist Myth: I am the last true immortal in the world

Chapter 579: Shocking Conjecture

Two days flew by.

Considering the need to wait for the golden axe and golden scissors to appear, Chen Yun did not leave the vicinity of the basin.

Yan Feng also wanted to obtain the magic weapon, so he naturally would not leave easily.

As for Niu Dali and Master Jingchen, they wanted to see what the legendary golden axe and golden scissors looked like, so they stayed behind as well.

It is about to be midnight.

Although it was already late at night, the place was still brightly lit by the true fire of the sun.

The Dan Qi in Chen Yun's body was released, dispersing the sun's true fire around him.

Immediately, he sat on the ground, quietly waiting for the medicinal power of the Shen Hua Tang to take effect.

Yan Feng, Niu Dali and Master Jingchen noticed that Chen Yun was practicing, and no one made any noise. They even stood not far away from him to protect him tacitly.

Chen Yun naturally sensed everyone's situation.

At any other time, he might have taken the time to say "thank you".

However, now that the medicinal power of the Shen Hua Decoction had taken effect in his body, he was completely immersed in it and had no time to say anything more.

A heat is rising in the body, making the dark red color of the golden elixir even more rich and bright.

The huge amount of medicinal power transformed into Dan Qi was like a river bursting its dam, madly increasing one's own strength.

It’s different from every previous spiritual soup.

This time, the medicinal power of the Shen Hua Soup, once born out of the body, is comprehensively enhancing every kind of strength of Chen Yun.

No matter the physical body or the spiritual elixir, all were rapidly growing and improving under the burst of this power.

In less than a breath, Chen Yun felt that both his soul and body seemed to have been strengthened by several times.

Chen Yun has been practicing for so long that he would naturally not be happy about the increase in strength. He remained as calm as a rock and continued to refine the medicinal power.

suddenly!

He felt a burning invasion!
When this heat invaded, the body did not react at all.

Instead, the soul seemed to be "burned".

An intense pain surged from the depths of his soul.

"Ok?"

Chen Yun didn't bother to continue refining the medicinal power and suddenly opened his eyes.

He was a little doubtful and thought to himself: "What was that burning sensation just now?"

Master Jingchen had noticed that Chen Yun had opened his eyes a long time ago.

She asked, "Master Chen, what's wrong?"

Yan Feng and Niu Dali looked over together.

Chen Yun frowned and said, "When I was practicing, I felt a burning heat invading my soul, as if I was about to be burned."

Nun Jingchen was startled, then suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. Since Master Chen is cultivating his primordial spirit, he must be absorbing spiritual energy from the outside world to refine it, right?"

Chen Yun saw that Master Jingchen seemed to know what was going on, and hurriedly responded: "Yes, although my profound skill does not rely on external spiritual energy, I am in the stage of refining the primordial spirit, so I need to absorb Yin Qi from the outside world to nourish the 'inner Yin' in my body, so I need to absorb some spiritual energy."

Yan Feng and Niu Dali didn't think there was anything wrong after hearing this, and looked at Master Jingchen with confusion.

Nun Jingchen laughed in silence and said, "Master Chen, where is this?"

After hearing these words, Chen Yun suddenly came to his senses, and quickly stood up and saluted, saying, "Thank you for your guidance, Master."

Nun Jingchen waved her hand and said, "It's okay. I'm currently mainly cultivating the Yin Spirit, so I know a little more about these things. You should change to another place to cultivate as soon as possible to avoid hurting your Yuan Shen."

Chen Yun said: "Good, everyone please wait here for a while, I will be back in an hour at most."

After saying that, he performed the teleportation technique and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Yan Feng is ultimately a heretic, and is not as proficient in the cultivation of the soul as the Taoists and Buddhists.

He still didn't understand the hidden meaning, and asked curiously: "Master, what's wrong with Master Chen cultivating his soul here?"

Niu Dali had learned the orthodox knowledge of Xuanmen, and had reacted. He took the initiative to explain: "What the nun meant is that this is where the sun rises, filled with endless sun fire, and is a place of pure yang. Master Chen needs to cultivate his primordial spirit by nourishing his 'inner yin'. Not only can he not absorb yin qi here, but he will also absorb pure yang qi with sun fire into his body, which will naturally burn his primordial spirit."

Yan Feng still didn't understand what he meant. "Didn't Master Chen use his soul here before? He wasn't hurt by the Sun's True Fire at that time. How come he was damaged during his practice?"

Nun Jingchen said softly, "It is one thing to manifest the primordial spirit, and it is another thing to absorb the pure yang energy with the true fire of the sun into the primordial spirit for refining. For example, if you poison someone with poison, you will not be poisoned, but if you swallow the poison, you will be poisoned to death immediately. The same is true for the pure yang energy with the true fire of the sun. If Master Chen manifests his primordial spirit and does not absorb this energy, he will be fine. But once he inhales it, he will be burned by the extremely hot true fire of the sun."

Yan Feng finally understood, "So that's how it is. According to what Master said, this pure Yang energy with the true fire of the sun is not suitable for refining the soul?"

Master Jingchen said: "According to my Buddhist practice method, it is indeed not suitable for refining the primordial spirit."

……

the other side.

Chen Yun moved to the small cave where he had previously comprehended the power of the "trapping and killing" law.

With his omniscient ability in his small world, he sensed what Master Jingchen said.

Suddenly, he couldn't help but shook his head.

Generally speaking, pure yang energy with the incomparable heat of the sun's true fire is indeed not suitable for refining the spirit.

The reason is very simple. The soul, like humans, is divided into yin and yang sides.

Inhaling pure yang energy containing the true fire of the sun into the body to refine the soul will destroy the "balance" of the soul.

From this point of view, the vast majority of cultivators cannot use the true fire of the sun to refine their spirits.

But nothing is absolute. Chen Yun knows that the true fire of the sun is actually a wonderful way to cultivate the "Yang God".

The reason why he couldn't withstand the heat and burned his soul was entirely because the "strength" of his soul was too low.

If the Yuan Shen is strong enough to withstand the scorching heat of the sun's true fire, then this power will actually help one to refine the Yang Shen faster.

Chen Yun understood this when he was reading books on alchemy.

In addition, the core of the fifth level of the "Mr. Chen's Inner Alchemy Technique" that he had envisioned before was also to absorb the energy of the sun.

This is a kind of "spiritual energy" that is hotter than the sun's true fire and the essence of the sun's true fire.

It can help you refine the Yin impurities in your Yuan Shen faster and thus achieve Yang Shen.

It's a pity that his primordial spirit is too weak now. He even gets burned when absorbing the pure yang energy containing the true fire of the sun. It is impossible for him to absorb the qi of the sun to refine the yin impurities of his primordial spirit.

"I estimate that I need to wait until the middle or even late stage of the Earthly Immortal Realm before I can truly begin to refine the Yang God."

Chen Yun was not in a hurry. "Don't think too much about these things for now. Things will work out when the time comes. I will continue to refine the medicinal power first."

So far, although he has refined a little bit of medicinal power, he really doesn't know how much stronger it will make him. Therefore, Chen Yun once again focused on refining the medicinal power.

A large amount of medicinal power is transformed into immortal energy, which is constantly circulating according to the fourth round of exercise route of "Mr. Chen's Inner Alchemy Secret".

With every breath Chen Yun took, he felt the Dan Qi in his body filling up, with a faint dark red Dan light lingering around him.

As his refining continued, thunderous sounds came from his body and flames burst out of his nose.

This is quite normal.

The fourth turn of "Mr. Chen's Inner Alchemy Secret" will produce such a scene when one has cultivated to a certain level.

Not only that, once one has cultivated "Mr. Chen's Inner Alchemy Secret" to a relatively high level, the golden elixir will "come alive" and release a elixir light like the bright moon, completely enveloping itself.

This ray of Dan light is extraordinary. Not only can it make people fearless of cold, heat, wind and frost, and remain the same throughout the four seasons, but it also has very strong defensive power, which is stronger than many powerful defensive magic weapons.

Of course, Chen Yun has not reached this level yet.

He is moving forward in this direction.

"The energy of the Yang Hu, the nose sky orifice, and the mouth earth orifice, this is the mysterious part of the fourth transformation."

The thought flashed through his mind, and Chen Yun observed that in just such a short period of time, his own soul's golden elixir had more than doubled in size, and even the strength of his physical body had almost doubled as well.

This made him feel incredible.

This is equivalent to just a short period of time, which is equivalent to all the hard work I have put in since my cultivation.

Although he knew that after he arrived at the Earthly Immortal Realm, the progress of refining immortal energy, strengthening his primordial spirit, and tempering his physical body were countless times faster than before, but this rate of improvement was still too great.

According to Chen Yun's previous estimate, it would take him at least several years to cultivate to his current level.

And now, a short moment is worth several years of hard training?
I have to say, the Daluo Ling Tang is really amazing.

Chen Yun was just about to sigh.

Suddenly, his expression changed slightly as he thought of something terrible.

When he obtained the "Daluo Lingtang", he was still a frustrated young man in Dahei Mountain and had no skills to practice.

Afterwards, he entered the Chuan Dao Temple and practiced inner alchemy.

If "Daluo Ling Tang" was designed based on the prototype of Neidan, then it is reasonable that when the medicinal power was born, it would flow along the route of Neidan.

It's just that I'm now in the fourth turn of Mr. Chen's Inner Alchemy Secret, which is a combination of various techniques such as Pangu's True Body Secret, Eight-Nine Mysterious Art, Flying Spirit Jade Talisman, The Great Nine Essential Heart Seal Sutra and Laozi's Notes. Why does the medicinal power of the Shenhua Decoction also follow this route of exercise?

Chen Yun had a vague feeling that his life path was being controlled by some mysterious and powerful force.

His development, treasures, and future transformation of his skills all seemed to be influenced by this great power.

Or...

Have I always been living under the control of someone, or of the divine?
This is undoubtedly an extremely terrible thing.

Because it's like playing a game, except you are not the one playing the game, but the character being controlled by someone else!
Chen Yun didn't even have the mood to sense the power of the medicine. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Could it be that my every move is really controlled by someone?"

If not, best.

But if it is really as I guessed, then who is controlling me?
The image of his mentor emerged in Chen Yun's mind, and then he shook his head.

Although my master's cultivation is earth-shattering, he is still a celestial being and has not yet reached the transcendent realm where he can influence the operation of the heavens and all worlds.

There is only one possibility to achieve something so superb.

That means the controller's cultivation has at least transcended the rules of the heavens and all worlds.

That means at least a Daluo celestial being.

At present, in this world, it is said that only the Three Pure Ones, the Three Realms and the Three Treasures have reached this realm.

In addition, Chen Yun heard from his grandmaster Dong Wanggong that the Jade Emperor is expected to become the fourth deity to reach the realm of Daluo Heavenly Immortal.

Expected to arrive means it hasn't arrived yet.

Then, the Jade Emperor can basically be ruled out.

"Could it be..."

Chen Yun frowned and said, "The Three Pure Ones, Three Realms, and Three Treasures Heavenly Lords are controlling me?"

But why would the Three Pure Ones, Three Realms and Three Treasures do this?
Chen Yun wondered, could it be that in his previous life, or previous lives, he was really some unprecedented sacred being, and then died because of some things, and was reincarnated? Now, one of the Three Pure Ones, Three Realms, and Three Treasures of the Heavenly Master is using this method to help him return to the immortal path?
If this guess is true, then it is very likely that he was once a disciple of one of the Three Pure Ones, Three Realms and Three Treasures.

Chen Yun thought over and over again, but couldn't think of which of these three sacred disciples was in his situation.

Suddenly, a young man's face appeared in his mind again. He was a young Taoist with a dignified appearance, who gave people the feeling that he was watching the operation of the Great Dao. "Or... my future successor?"

This future successor had appeared once.

At that time, Chen Yun fell into obsession and was almost unable to extricate himself. It was the future successor who traveled through time, space, reality and illusion, came to the scene where Chen Yun was possessed, and helped him break free.

To be honest, up to now, Chen Yun has cultivated to the Earth Immortal Realm, but he still cannot guess how high the cultivation realm of this future successor must be to be able to accomplish such a feat.

It is easy to travel through time and space, but to travel between reality and illusion and enter the state of being possessed by the devil, Chen Yun really cannot imagine what kind of cultivation level that requires.

“From this, we can see that the cultivation level of my future successor is very likely not weaker than that of the Three Pure Ones, Three Realms, and Three Treasures.”

Chen Yun thought to himself, "If he is really influencing my every move, or has designed a fixed route for me, then I don't have to worry about anything. After all, he is my disciple, and there is no one in our Xuanmen sect who does not respect his teacher."

Actually, it’s nothing.

Because judging from his current development, the person who secretly influences his behavior or manipulates the entire world to "serve" him is full of goodwill and seems to want him to cultivate to a higher level faster.

For someone with this kind of strength, it would be easy for him to kill me.

As for wanting to get something from myself, that is also unlikely.

They can influence the operation of the universe, so what can they want from a small earthly fairyland like mine?

What's more, when Chen Yun just got the "Daluo Lingtang" and the small copper furnace, he was still a poor young man who had no food to eat, so there was nothing worth coveting.

"Don't think about him anymore. When I reach a certain level of cultivation, I believe that the person who helps me cultivate behind the scenes will show up. Then, the mystery will be solved."

Chen Yun suppressed all distracting thoughts in his mind and immersed himself in refining the medicinal power again.

The Dan Qi in the body continues to diffuse, and the level of cultivation is rapidly improving.

Chen Yun had a vague premonition.

After tonight, my cultivation level will definitely increase dramatically.

I just don’t know if I can reach the point where “a round of elixir light like a bright moon covers the body”.

Chen Yun secretly hoped, "I hope I can achieve this."
