There is a progress bar in my cultivation of immortality

Chapter 559: Attempt of Divine Magic
There are no years in practice.

Ten years have passed in a blink of an eye. After experiencing the chaos of the previous ten years, the situation in Zhongzhou has actually calmed down in these ten years. This is because as the years have passed, people have gradually found the rules of the game, and various forces have formed. A certain amount of balance and see-sawing.

Wang Ping also opened a teahouse in Zhonghui County for ten years, sending away batches of elderly people around him. For Wang Ping, ten years is just a time to meditate, but for mortals, it is a time of saying goodbye to old age and death.

However, Wang Ping had never been to the teahouse in person as early as ten years ago. The person who took his place to experience the mortal identity was a puppet, while Wang Ping himself sat alone in the underground cave of the mountaintop dojo, practicing spiritual training. Volume 1 of the Secret Method: Self-denial.

This step of practice will not increase the slightest bit of cultivation, it is just about restraining one's own desires, and it must be done every day for ten years, and the consciousness must be in a clear state.

Wang Ping has been "self-denying" with full humanity for ten years, and the only gain is that he has learned to be able to block the desires in human nature.

This step of practice seems to be useless, and it feels like just self-torture.

In fact, there are relevant records in the secret method passed down to him by Mr. Xiaoshanfu. Many monks have also pointed out that there is no need for the first step of 'self-denial'. It is okay to start directly from the second step, establishing faith, but after collecting faith If we cannot maintain a long-term state of neither sorrow nor joy, we cannot refine the spirituality of faith into the light of divine magic.

Of course, some people may be gifted, or have cultivated other aspects of Taoism, and can block desires, which is also possible; or they may directly suppress them with blood like the Xia royal family, but the life span of such magical practitioners is too short.

Wang Ping had already practiced self-denial to perfection as early as his sixth year. Of course, it was what he considered to be perfection, but strangely enough, the reason why he had practiced for ten years was precisely because of the state of self-denial. affected.

"No?"

Yu Lian was not in a hurry to dive into the sea. She stayed consciously in the underground cave for ten years. What she wanted to see most now was the blue sky and the endless sea.

There is no change here from before. The nominal owner is still Wang Ping's puppet, but the number of caravans coming and going at the transfer dock has decreased a lot. Wang Ping knows from the intelligence gained through the puppet's experience that this is caused by the civil war in Linshui Mansion.

Next to her, Yu Lian finished two cups of tea. Tengyun landed on Wang Ping's shoulder and asked, "Has anything interesting happened in the past ten years?"

"It's only been less than two years since the war began. I estimate that they can fight for hundreds of years. There may be something that interests you in the future."

When the tea was in his mouth, Wang Ping's countless memories suppressed by his state of 'self-denial' emerged crazily. However, the moment the tea was swallowed, it was immediately digested by the spirit body, and he quickly poured himself another cup of tea.

Wang Ping offered the 'Dongtian Mirror' and said: "The civil war in Linshui Mansion has broken out. Lord Long did not intervene, causing the war to spread to the entire southeastern sea area. Many sects were involved, and even the Taiyin Sect had to temporarily avoid the spotlight."

"It would be better if I could make a pot of tea."

After a long time, Yu Lian, who was blowing the sea breeze, said these words, which brought Wang Ping, who almost entered the state of 'self-denial' again, back to reality, and then a coffee table and a stove appeared next to them.

It is an ineffable emotion, akin to the obsessive-compulsive disorder of a rational state.

As soon as the ten-year period expired, Wang Ping used the 'Dongtian Realm' to penetrate the layers of space with Yulian and appeared in the dojo on the small island south of Shang'an Mansion.

It took Wang Ping a moment to become familiar with the light in the outside world, and then he took Yulian and sat at the highest point of the island, quietly looking at the endless ocean. While feeling the vastness of the ocean, he sorted out the information that the puppet sent back to him. Some important news.

"I was asking about other things."

"Other things are the messages Zi Luan sends to my communication token every quarter. He has a lot of fun with the ministers of the Chu court and the monks who are attached to the court. Wu Quan is also adding fuel to the fire. They seem to be Play this as a game.”

While Wang Ping was talking, he took out a roll of bamboo slips from his storage bag and opened it. He used the wood spirit energy to copy all the information sent to him by Zi Luan onto the bamboo slips and said, "Take it and read it. It will be better than what you have seen before." Those story-telling novels are wonderful." When Yu Lian heard that they were even more exciting than the story-telling novels, her eyes suddenly shone with light. She picked it up and read it and said, "Those people are so pitiful. They may not know that they are risking their wealth and life for everything. Every battle is just a simple game for others to maintain their humanity.”

When Wang Ping heard Yu Lian's words, his eyes looking at the sea moved slightly, and then he turned to look at Yu Lian, "How do you know that they don't know? Do you think there is any difference between our situation at the moment and those people?" "

"Well, yes!"

Yulian swung her tail and responded casually. Then she drank tea and read the messages sent by Ziluan with great interest. She looked thoughtful at one moment and smiled at the other.

An hour passed like this.

After Yu Lian read the contents of the bamboo slips, she rubbed Wang Ping's cheek with her head and asked, "If Zi Luan and the others continue to do this, they will sooner or later push the Chu court into trouble, right?"

"That's inevitable, but they started all this."

"If we were the imperial court, we would do the same thing, right?"

"Good question... maybe, human nature is like this, no one can change it, even if you and I don't do it, someone else will."

"Then the fish will die and the net will be broken..."

"If the fish dies, the net may not be broken. The most they can resist is to fight with our incoming disciples. Even if there are some casualties, will there be any loss to Zi Luan and us?"

"Um…"

Yu Lian tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said, "It turns out that we are the villains in the story. I thought we were always decent!"

Wang Ping laughed "haha" at her words.

Yulian looked at Wang Ping's look. When Wang Ping stopped laughing, she imitated Wang Ping and said, "You will definitely say next: good guys and villains only exist in stories, and there are no pros and cons in reality." group!"

Wang Ping's smile became happier when he heard this, and he stretched out his hand to touch Yu Lian's head, but Yu Lian dodged it. At this moment, his human memory came over him like a tide.

Yu Lian rose into the sky at this moment, and after Wang Ping had laughed enough, he changed the subject and said, "Are you going to refine the light of divine magic next?"

Wang Ping shook his head, picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "You can stop practicing magic when you have reached this point. I need to cultivate my soul to release the Qi sea first. I have a hunch that it will be ready in half a month." success!"

"Well!"

Yulian responded and turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the sea.

Wang Ping put down the tea cup in his hand and concentrated on observing his Yuan Shen. At this moment, his Yuan Shen had undergone ten years of daily Qi training and formed countless intersecting meridians.

These meridians are very fragile and are made of spiritual energy. If you don't continue to practice, they will probably dissipate within five days. Therefore, only by cultivating the sea of ​​qi and letting it circulate around the world autonomously can you avoid such a thing from happening.
