Practice begins with using the Six Dings and Six Jias

The cultivation of others to the fifth realm is a slow and arduous journey, step by step, with great difficulty.

Xu Qing’s fifth level of practice is high-speed running.

On the third day of staying at the Altar of All Gods, he condensed the second star and made a small improvement in realm.

After Taoist Qingxu woke up, Jingqing did not rush to leave.

Like Xu Qing, he stayed in the Altar of All Gods to consolidate his realm.

She watched her fellow apprentice condense the second star in just three days, remaining silent.

I don’t know what to say.

At this speed, it would take at most three years to condense 361 stars in the celestial sphere.

For ordinary people, three years is neither long nor short.

But for those who practice spiritual cultivation, three years is not a very long period of time.

It took her more than ten years to complete the fifth level of practice.

This is already an astonishing speed.

However, her junior brother's achievement was reduced by more than half.

This would make it seem like she wasn't that talented.

But soon.

Jingqing's idea was shattered.

Because it only took Xu Qing two days to condense the third star.

By the fourth one, it only took one day.

Next.

Xu Qing condensed nine stars at the speed of condensing one star per day.

Promoted from the second floor to the third floor.

At this time, even Jin Hujun was silenced.

They seemed to have never seen such a speed before.

People often use the phrase "breakthrough is as easy as eating and drinking water" to describe the speed of genius's practice.

But this is just talk after all.

Looking back on the past, no matter how talented a genius is, there is no barrier to reaching a higher level, but breakthroughs still need to be gradual.

But Jingqing and Jinhujun had this feeling when they saw Xu Qing these days.

It really is as easy as eating and drinking.

Later, Jin Hujun couldn't resist his curiosity and asked Xu Qing why the stars were condensed more slowly at the beginning but faster at the end.

Xu Qing’s answer was “Practice makes perfect”.

When Jin Hujun heard this answer, he opened his mouth but couldn't say anything.

Practice makes perfect?

Is this something that can be mastered with practice?
If practice makes perfect, why does it become increasingly difficult for others as they progress in their practice?
Mr. Jin Hu cursed and swore, and brought trouble upon himself.

Sure enough, curiosity killed the cat.

Being blindly curious about everything will only make it doubt life.

Qingxu spends most of its time conditioning the body.

Although the causal monster erodes cause and effect, the body will inevitably be affected and needs to be properly adjusted.

With Xu Qing, Jing Qing and Jin Hujun by my side, I suddenly felt that guarding Huaijing was not so boring.

"Don't try to compete with Jingdu." Taoist Qingxu spoke to comfort Jingqing, Jinhujun and his cat when he saw that they were in low spirits.

"Master, I know." Jing Qing rarely showed such a low look, and responded sullenly, "Junior brother's cultivation speed is fast, we should be happy for him."

"It's just that I just broke through, and my junior brother will catch up in a blink of an eye. Where can I put my face as a senior sister?"

Taoist Qingxu burst out laughing.

He didn't expect Jingqing to have such an idea.

Ever since she went down the mountain to travel, Jingqing seldom showed her girlish attitude in front of him.

She is more generous than men.

This would occasionally make Taoist Qingxu a little depressed.

After all, Jingqing was brought back from the foot of the mountain by him. He was truly both her teacher and father, and had raised her since she was a child.

"Jing Du's speed of cultivation cannot be viewed with common sense. It is the result of many great fortunes."

"I know." Jingqing shook her head and put that little bit of depression behind her.

"I better go and practice hard, lest my junior brother not only catches up with me, but also overtakes me directly."

Jingqing no longer paid attention to Xu Qing and ran aside to practice.

Taoist Qingxu looked at Lord Jinhu.

Jin Hujun's emotions came and went quickly, and now he was using his tail to fish in the river.

Noticing Qingxu's gaze, it said unhappily: "Don't look at me, I'm not hit."

"I think you deserve a blow." Taoist Qingxu laughed and shook his head.

"With your aptitude, you would have been able to break through to the Great Divine Power realm long ago."

"Unlike Jingqing, who is burdened by the talisman, you are simply lazy."

Jin Hujun rolled his eyes, "Don't you know that it takes hundreds of years for demon beasts to cultivate? How can they compare with you humans?"

"That's another monster." Taoist Qingxu grabbed King Golden Tiger with a wave of his hand.

"How long have you been at the Pantheon?"

"You are immersed in the power of the Ten Thousand Gods Altar, which is equivalent to taking tonic pills every day."

"Even a piece of trash can make progress, but you just eat without refining, wasting the power of the Pantheon."

"If you continue like this, you will have to stay in the temple and guard the gate for us."

Jin Hujun was furious, "Guarding the gate? I'm a cat demon, not a dog demon! Why should I be guarding the gate?"

Taoist Qingxu glanced at him and said, "Because you are too weak. Now Jingdu's cultivation is almost higher than yours, and his combat power has long surpassed yours."

"How dare you act so pretentiously in front of him and act like an elder?"

"I am his elder. I am hundreds of years older than him." Lord Jinhu said dimly.

But after complaining this time, it obediently ran over to practice.

Taoist Qingxu nodded with satisfaction.

It’s not that he really wants to force Jin Hujun to practice.

After all, the lifespan of demons is much longer than that of humans, so it is no problem for Lord Golden Tiger to live for several thousand years.

It is completely certain that he will break through to the realm of a great master during this period of time.

just
Taoist Qingxu's gaze fell on Xu Qing.

The monsters of cause and effect have invaded this world, and there may be a catastrophe that will sweep across the entire world in the future.

If you want to survive a disaster, you can't rely on others. You have to be strong yourself.

That's why he gave some advice to King Golden Tiger and asked it to practice hard during this period of time.

Fortunately, we will have stronger power to resist disasters in the future.

At this time, Taoist Qingxu turned his gaze to Qiuniu.

"Senior, can we talk?"

Qiuniu nodded, "Okay."

Taoist Qingxu waved his hand, and the power of the Altar of All Gods isolated the others.

"I wonder what Sect Leader Qingxu wants to discuss?"

"I want to ask what you think of me as your disciple."

"What do you think of the young master?" Qiuniu raised his eyebrows.

"Yes." Taoist Qingxu paused, then said after a moment's hesitation, "My disciple should be born at the right time."

"His appearance should be a sign that the world has foreseen the disaster in the future, and Jingdu was brought into the world to deal with it."

"He was born with the destiny of an immortal, and is guarded by twelve guardian gods." "Although there have been tribulations along the way, it has been smooth sailing overall, and he has hardly encountered any major dangers."

"Even if we encounter it, we can turn it into a blessing."

"This kind of person with great luck is loved by heaven and earth. He is truly a child of destiny. His future achievements are immeasurable."

"But the prerequisite is to survive that 'disaster'."

Qiuniu looked at Taoist Qingxu and said, "I know what Master Qingxu wants to say."

"Master Qingxu, do you think that we, the Dragonborn of the Four Seas, will abandon you when we are faced with a life-or-death crisis?"

"Do you suspect that we are not sincere to the young master?"

"I have this worry." Qingxu smiled, "Being loved by the heavens must come with corresponding responsibilities."

"Jing Du's responsibility is to deal with this disaster caused by the causal monster."

"But he can't do it alone, even if I and everyone in Yuanfu Temple and even Dasheng stand behind him to support him."

"Only if the whole world is on his side can he fulfill this responsibility, and from then on he can fly freely in the vast sea and sky!"

"Master Qingxu, don't worry." Qiuniu said in a deep voice: "This will not happen."

"I can't guarantee that all the water creatures in the four seas will stand on the side of the young master."

"But I, Qiuniu, will always stand on the side of the young master."

"If you want the young master to die, you must first step over my dead body."

Taoist Qingxu fell silent. "Can I ask why?"

What he said today actually meant that he did not trust that the nine-headed seventh-level dragon descendants in the four seas would protect Xu Qing wholeheartedly.

In the face of death, it is difficult to consider the distant future.

He believed that the nine-headed dragon descendant of the seventh realm would always choose to escape when faced with a life-and-death crisis.

Even though Jingdu may be responsible for the survival of the entire dragon clan.

But between dying now and dying a few days later, there will always be people who choose the latter.

"My reason is actually very simple." Qiuniu's answer surprised Taoist Qingxu.

"It's just a gamble."

"Bet?" Taoist Qingxu frowned slightly, "If one person achieves enlightenment, all the people around him will benefit?"

"That's right, if one person succeeds, everyone will benefit!"

Qiuniu was frank and honest, hiding nothing.

"Originally, I was unwilling to accept the young master, even though there was an instruction from our ancestors, and even though the young master held the fate that could allow us to ascend to immortality."

"But I am asked to worship a little Taoist priest who is not even a great master as my teacher. Although I don't show it on the surface and even treat him with respect, I still look down on the little master in my heart."

"But the trip to the Western Regions made me see the changes in fate."

Qiuniu pondered for a moment.

"In fact, I have been thinking about my experience in Leiyin Buddha Kingdom these days."

"Mr. Xiao played an extremely important role in this matter."

"But compared to Mr. Xiao's role in this matter, when I think back on it afterwards, I feel more uneasy because it seems like there is an invisible force pushing the situation forward with Mr. Xiao as the center."

"My knowledge of cause and effect is not that great, but I can see some clues."

"Everything this causal monster does will be caused in the future."

"'Cause' is in the future?" Taoist Qingxu's eyes narrowed slightly, "You mean the source of the cause and effect monsters is in the future, not the past."

"Yes." Qiuniu took a deep breath, "The cause is in the future, but the result has continued from the past to the present."

"So once that time point is reached, everything related to the causal monster will appear. It cannot be stopped or eliminated."

"But what does this have to do with Senior Qiuniu being willing to risk his life to protect my disciple?"

Taoist Qingxu vaguely grasped something, but after all, he was not in the Ten Thousand Buddha Cave at that time, so there were many things that he could not fully feel.

"Because I speculate that our world is the place where the 'cause' of the birth of the causal monsters lies."

"And it is very likely related to Mr. Xiao."

"All people and monsters in this world will eventually be swept in."

"So if you want to survive, you have to stand on the side of the young master."

Taoist Qingxu's eyes suddenly turned fierce, "Senior Qiuniu, this should not be your speculation."

Qiuniu sneered, "Indeed, it was the Taoist Xuanzhen from your Yuanfu Temple who told me."

"When he entered that causal channel, he secretly used causality to pass the message to me."

"I don't know why he did this." Qiuniu said in a deep voice: "But through this information, I understand that whether it is the chance of survival or the chance of becoming an immortal, it all depends on the young master."

"Even the chance of resurrection and living another life in the future all depends on you, Mr. Xiao."

"Resurrection." Taoist Qingxu said with a smile: "Senior Qiuniu did not hide anything at all."

In this world, or after the establishment of the six realms of reincarnation, death is death, and there is no resurrection.

After death, one can transform into a ghost cultivator, or take over the body of another.

But no matter what, when a person dies, it is like a light going out, and there is no possibility of resurrection.

To achieve this, at a time when the gods and immortals have disappeared, one must redefine the five elements and rebuild the universe.

To achieve this, even if this is just a small world, ordinary immortals do not have the ability to do so.

"There's nothing to hide." Qiuniu shook his head, "The future will definitely not be good."

"Instead of living in humiliation, it is better to take a gamble and see how lucky you are."

Taoist Qingxu waved his hand, and the power of the Altar of All Gods dissipated.

Xu Qing walked out from the side.

Qiuniu didn't seem surprised by this.

"This test was done by me, and my disciple was not aware of it. But Senior, you don't seem to be too surprised?"

Qiuniu said calmly, "It is said that parents plan deeply for their children."

"Actually, it's the same for a master to treat his disciples."

"You know that the young master can drive us, partly because of the entrustment of our ancestors, and partly because of the temptation of the immortal fate."

"But our ancestors are gone, how can they interfere with us? Even though Ya Zi has suffered twice at the hands of the young master, he may not be very obedient to him now."

"But when you lure people with benefits, the relationship may not be very strong."

"So as the young master's master, you want to test me and other descendants. I can't deny your thoughts."

At this point, Qiuniu looked at the young master and said, "I will take this opportunity to express my loyalty to the young master."

Xu Qing actually didn't care much about how loyal Qiuniu was.

As long as it behaves well during this period, he will grant it the chance to become an immortal.

At that time, it will be like putting a shackle on their necks.

They can't disobey even if they want to.

Life is in his hands.

A relationship that is induced by profit is not solid, and how solid can loyalty that is unclear be?

It all depends on how people choose.

Taoist Qingxu didn't know that Xu Qing could use his immortal fate to tie these dragon descendants to him.

That's why I'm trying this time.

Xu Qing did not blame his master for being nosy. He knew clearly that his master was doing this for his own good.

What's more, this has revealed a lot of news.

The "cause" for the appearance of the causal monster is in the future and is related to him.

This was something he never expected.

At first, Xu Qing thought that the causal monster might be the product of "infinite calamity".

Or it can be said to be a precursor to "infinite kalpas".

After all, sentient beings who have experienced "infinite calamities", even immortals, will eventually perish.

Very little is known about the "infinite kalpas". (End of this chapter)
