Practice begins with using the Six Dings and Six Jias

A large number of powerful masters were lost in the treasure house of Dragon Palace.

For the entire spiritual community, this is a top priority event that is like the sky falling.

Everyone's attention quickly shifted away from the massacre in Dragon Palace, and they gathered together in panic to discuss how to save those powerful people.

The Dasheng side is still fine.

Because of Wei Sheng's obstruction, only a small number of powerful masters in the sixth realm chose to enter the Dragon Palace to look for opportunities.

Naturally, these people take their own life and death responsibility. Even if the Dasheng court, the Arctic Exorcism Institute and other sects ignore them, no one can say anything.

However, in order to stabilize the situation, the imperial court sent an old general of the sixth realm who had been idle since the Ming Emperor period to participate in the meeting that united various countries and major forces.

Yuanfu Temple, the only Taoist temple in Dasheng that currently has a top mortal in charge, also sent a representative.

But the purpose is not to find those powerful people who are trapped in the treasure house of Dragon Palace, but to find Elder Qiu Muxueqiu.

Qiu Muxue, who was in charge of leading the team this time, evacuated with Zhu Qingcang and Deputy Marshal Tianyou.

But he inexplicably lost his trace during the evacuation. Wei Sheng is currently tracking him down and has already got some clues. It is suspected that he encountered a top human being who was heading to Dragon Palace.

Because of this, Yuanfu Temple sent representatives.

at the same time.

Elder Qingzheng was having a headache, not knowing how to deal with the nine-headed seventh-level dragon descendant who stayed in the temple and refused to leave.

Now that the Dragon Palace incident has become a hot topic, the Four Seas Dragon Descendants, who were the instigators and who know the Dragon Palace best, are staying calmly in their Taoist temple.

Once the news gets out, I'm afraid their Yuanfu Temple will face the criticism of everyone.

However, the descendants of the Nine-Headed Dragon are superior to Qingzheng in terms of strength, seniority, and years of practice, so one must be careful when entertaining them.

How could I dare to ask them to leave Yuanfu Temple?
The turmoil of the outside world cannot affect the tranquility of the Huaihe River under Guishan Mountain.

Xu Qing stayed in the Altar of All Gods, using the power of the Altar of All Gods and immortal fate to continuously nourish the Yang God.

However, in just a few days, the hard work that would take others years or even decades to complete was completed.

Xu Qing can now release his Yang Spirit to the extent of traveling thousands of miles, and has successfully completed the eighth level of Spirit Refining.

A streak of golden light fell into the water at an extremely fast speed, passed through the barrier constructed by the Altar of All Gods, and landed beside Jingqing and Jinhujun.

"You're back, Junior Brother? Where did you go this time?"

Jing Qing did not relax for a moment during this period. He maintained the seal of Huaijing while digesting the improvement of the realm breakthrough and the immortal fate that was integrated into his life.

Just after suppressing the daily riots in Huaijing, Xu Qing's Yang Shen was seen returning.

“This time I went outside the Great Wall.”

"Outside the Great Wall?" Jing Qing frowned slightly.

"Yes. I heard from outside that there was an internal conflict outside the Great Wall. The forces under the Nine Disaster Lords suddenly formed several factions and started fighting fiercely."

"I just went over to take a look."

"Junior brother!" Jing Qing took a deep breath, "Although the Yang Spirit can travel thousands of miles in an instant when it leaves the body, it is not without danger."

"If your Yang Spirit is attacked by a great demon with a natural talent for the Yuan Spirit, even if the demon doesn't hurt you but just traps you for a while, it can still cause considerable damage."

The Yang Spirit in the Spirit Refining Realm can leave the body, but it cannot completely separate from the physical body to exist in the world. After being released for a period of time, it needs to return to the physical body for nurturing.

Therefore, even if a Taoist has cultivated to the point where the Yang Spirit leaves the body, he will not easily release the Yang Spirit unless it is absolutely necessary.

They will not go to battlefields or places where there are many spiritual forces, and most of their activities will only take place in the mundane areas.

This is why there are so many legends about immortals among the people, but in the world of cultivation, it is almost impossible to see other Taoist disciples releasing the Yang God to defend against the enemy outside the realm of refining the spirit.

Even if there is, it is relied on magic weapons, and he will not fight others head-on with his pure Yang Shen body.

"Don't worry, Senior Sister. I didn't leave the Dasheng territory. I just took a look from afar at the border."

"I dare not come out of seclusion. I just took a look and saw the demonic energy crisscrossing everywhere outside the seclusion, accompanied by murderous and bloody energy."

"My Yang Shen body is not yet fully cultivated. If I step into a place like that, it will most likely be destroyed in its pure and flawless state."

"I'm glad you understand. It's better to be safer next time." Jing Qing removed the solemnity on her face.

"Got it, Senior Sister."

Xu Qing responded and turned to look at the master: "It's been so many days, and the master still hasn't recovered."

Hearing this, Jingqing's face darkened a little.

"Yeah. But it's better than before."

After chatting for a few words, Xu Qing, Jing Qing and Jin Hujun each went about their own business.

Jingqing continued to digest the gains from the breakthrough. It was rare for Jinhujun to have someone to share the burden on his shoulders, so he went to the Huai River to catch fish these days.

Xu Qing was ready to go one step further and officially enter the ninth level of soul refining.

The ninth level of spirit refinement is to refine one’s spiritual heart and return it to emptiness.

When the yang soul leaves the body, it can travel thousands of miles without hindrance, do whatever it wants, go anywhere it wants, step high on the clouds, and travel to all the islands.

But if the spiritual mind is not empty, it cannot encompass everything.

From the eighth to the ninth level of spirit refinement, what one seeks is the state from "reality" to "emptiness", that is, returning to emptiness.

Therefore, the ninth level of spirit refining is actually already halfway to the "return to the void" realm.

If the practitioner has a solid foundation, he can refine his spirit and return to the void, and directly enter the fifth realm.

Xu Qing didn't stay in the fourth realm for long, but he laid an excellent foundation.

This time he tried to advance from the eighth level to the ninth level, and he also had the idea of ​​breaking directly into the fifth level.

The fifth realm is to refine the spirit and return to emptiness.

Those who practice emptiness have a broad mind and all things are nothing to them.

The clear and empty energy circling between heaven and earth is me and not me, empty and not empty. The world can be destroyed, but only the emptiness cannot be destroyed. The heaven and earth can be obstructed, but only the emptiness cannot be obstructed. This is why the spirit fills the void and the law surrounds the world.

This is the beginning and end of refining the mind, nothing can be added to it.

To put it simply, this step is to place your Yang Spirit in the void, merge your Yang Spirit with the heaven and earth, and thus achieve the unity of man and nature.

Above sympathy is unity.

Therefore, the direction of Taoist fifth realm "Return to the Void" is to deepen the unity of man and nature.

However, God's will is infinite. If we blindly deepen the state of unity between man and nature, we will eventually be assimilated by God's will and become a part of nature.

This state is indeed the supreme state, in which one becomes a part of the way of heaven, but it is not the state pursued by practitioners.

What we seek in spiritual practice is transcendence, not becoming an unconscious existence.

Therefore, at this time, we must find a carrier in nothingness so that consciousness can continue to blend with heaven and earth without being assimilated by heaven and earth.

This carrier is all the great ways under the way of heaven.

Therefore, the sixth realm of Taoism is called "He Dao" instead of any other name.

Xu Qing suppressed all distracting thoughts and looked inward at his body. The golden yang spirit was sitting cross-legged above his sea of ​​consciousness.

The sun transformed by the immortal fate sprinkled wisps of gentle light and merged into the body of Yang Shen, while the magic talisman turned into a trace engraved on the center of the eyebrows.

everything's ready.

Xu Qingyang's divine gaze penetrated the small world of the human body and looked straight into the vast sky.

The next moment, his Yang Shen body suddenly "cracked" and left a trail of marks, like a porcelain doll that was broken into pieces and then glued together again.

Returning to emptiness, returning to emptiness, means breaking the yang spirit and making it become millions of incarnations, allowing one's consciousness to merge into nothingness.

The "cracking" sounds in the sea of ​​consciousness became more and more intense, and finally the entire Yang God shattered, and stars flew out from the fontanel and flew into the distant sky.

This feeling is similar to when I was first ordained, my consciousness entered a special heavenly space.

In this space, Xu Qing saw a brilliant and boundless ocean of stars.

Every star exudes a strong aura.

Those are the stars evolved from the consciousness of Taoist practitioners placed in the void.

And he will also leave a star here next.

If the stars left behind are phantoms, that is the ninth level of soul refining, and if the stars condense into substance, that is the fifth level.

The practice of the fifth realm can be simply described as increasing the number of stars corresponding to this realm, and one star becomes a sea of ​​stars.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

After Xu Qing's consciousness swept across the surrounding sea of ​​stars, he gathered his spirit and melted together the starlight that had been formed after the shattered Yang God to form a star.

Corresponding.

In Xu Qing's sea of ​​consciousness, the spiritual power mixed with the light of immortality and the vitality of gods continuously surged and poured into this star, making it continue to condense.

With the help of the immortal light and the vitality of the gods, the star corresponding to Xu Qing was materializing visibly to the naked eye.

The aura on Xu Qing's body continued to rise, and he successfully moved from the eighth level of spirit refining to the ninth level.

After that, there was no sign of stopping and it continued to rise rapidly.

It's unknown when Lord Jin Hu appeared in the Altar of All Gods with a fish in his mouth. Looking at Xu Qing whose aura was rising steadily, his expression was a little weird and awkward.

The scene of Xu Qing's entry into the sect is still vivid in my mind. When he returned home to pick up his family, he encountered difficulties and had to summon himself over to deal with them.

Now, in terms of realm, I have caught up with it.

"Ah," Jin Hujun sighed, "It's only been a few years, and this kid has reached this point."

"I won't be able to help this kid anymore if he encounters any problems in the future."

Jingqing smiled:
"I can't help you any more. Not to mention you, Jin Hu Jun, there wasn't much I could do to help you when I was in the fifth realm."

"He has twelve guardian deities and has mastered a semi-finished Mahayana Daojing. When he was in the fourth realm, most of those in the fifth realm were no match for him."

“Now that he has broken through and advanced to the fifth realm, in the future, no one will be his opponent in the intermediate realm of supernatural power. Only those who can withstand his full-strength attack are geniuses.”

When Jin Hujun heard Jingqing's words, his face fell.

"So, if I encounter problems in the future, I will have to ask Jing Du to help me deal with them?"

The smile on Jingqing's face grew deeper.

"Otherwise why would I be in such a hurry to break through?"

"As a senior sister who is so much older than me, I am overtaken by a junior brother who has just joined the sect. Do I have no face left?"

"The human race is truly blessed by heaven and earth for this." Jin Hujun said with emotion: "Even if the demon race has amazing talents, it will take them dozens or even hundreds of years to achieve a comparable level."

Jingqing glanced over with disdain.

"Why don't you say that some demons are born with the strength of the fourth or fifth realm. Although it may take dozens or hundreds of years to improve, there is basically no threshold along the way."

"Whether you practice or not, just by eating and drinking, you can reach a state that requires countless efforts from human cultivators."

Jin Hujun said dimly, "It seems that Jingdu didn't put much thought into it."

Jingqing choked.

"What about me?" Jing Qing said speechlessly: "I broke through the fifth realm to the sixth realm, which took a lot of energy and time. Don't you know?"

Jin Hujun shook his head:

"You have a demon in your heart. If you had let it go earlier, you would have made a breakthrough decades ago."

"Your senior brother Jingxuan was advancing at full speed, even as fast as ten horses pulling him."

"It's just that we are so talented. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been accepted as a disciple by the master." Jing Qing boasted, but there was no embarrassment on his face.

“Look at other famous geniuses. They all wasted half or even their entire lives in the fifth realm, unable to even glimpse the scenery of great supernatural powers.”

"I don't want to continue talking nonsense with you." Jing Qing said unhappily, "Junior brother has successfully broken through."

The words fell.

The aura that continued to rise from Xu Qing's body finally stopped.

His presence suddenly gave people a feeling of nothingness. Although he was right in front of them, they always felt that he was not actually there.

It's like it's a part of the world, existing but you hardly realize its existence.

Jingqing and Jinhujun looked at each other.

Such a state.
It doesn't look like he has just broken into the fifth level of "Refining the Spirit and Returning to the Void" at all.

Xu Qing opened his eyes, with excitement and joy in his eyes, but also a hint of doubt.

"Junior brother, what's wrong?" Jing Qing asked directly.

"Immortal fate." Xu Qing frowned slightly, "Those immortal fates entered the place where my will merged with the heaven and earth."

"The immortal fate has merged into the void along with your consciousness?" Jing Qing raised his eyebrows.

"Ah."

At the final moment of breaking into the fifth realm, those immortal connections directly entered the space of the sea of ​​stars.

Just like when it was in his sea of ​​consciousness, it transformed into a series of big suns accompanying the star corresponding to him.

This change caught him off guard.

But he knew this should be a good thing.

The practice process of the fifth realm "Refining the Spirit and Returning to the Void" can be simply described as the process of condensing stars.

With the big suns shining on him, the speed at which he could condense and form would be greatly increased.

Just
He seemed to have a deeper connection with those immortal beings.

Even if he cannot use these immortal connections in the future, he can give them to people who are in tune with the avenue corresponding to the immortal connections, and he will be able to control those people in the dark.

Immortals are also under the way of heaven.

Even if this is just the law of a small world.

Ordinary immortals cannot compare with the way of heaven.

Xu Qing had a feeling that all this seemed to be arranged.

These immortal connections would not have much effect on his future ascension to heaven.

It can only be given to people you trust, or given as a gift to establish a relationship with others and gain resources.

But now he can control the people or monsters who have taken his immortal fate in a special way.
In addition to assisting in spiritual practice, Xianyuan can also play other roles.

Xu Qing suddenly thought of the nine-headed dragon descendant of the seventh realm.

Apart from the immortal fate of the killing path that Ya Zi took away and gave to his senior sister, the remaining immortal fate must be suitable for the nine-headed dragon descendant (end of this chapter)
