Stealing the Secret from the Cover of Heaven

Chapter 436 Opening the Preaching

In the supreme Taoist temple, in front of the Changshou Temple, there were bursts of Taoist sounds and golden flowers falling.

Li Zhi, dressed in a simple Taoist robe, sat high on the Taoist platform and talked about his path to longevity.

In the small square below the stage, the disciples who had the rare opportunity to listen to Li Zhi's preaching were immersed in the ocean of Tao like a trance. Many of them even broke through their current realm on the spot, and some entered a deep state of enlightenment.

Fortunately, Li Zhi had set up a Heaven-Deceiving Array in the small square where he preached, so that their heavenly calamity was not brought upon them directly.

"I have heard that the way to longevity can be sought from the outside, but the way to immortality is to seek from within. This is called using the false to cultivate the true. The heaven and earth are finite, but the Great Dao is infinite. To seek the infinite with the finite is not an ordinary method. At the beginning of man, the Dao is conceived within him, and everything he seeks originates from the seeds of the Dao. Therefore..."

Passage after passage of mysterious scripture came out of Li Zhi's mouth and transformed into the supreme sound of Tao in the small square, allowing all the disciples to comprehend the true meaning therein.

Since the establishment of the Taoist temple, Li Zhi has never officially preached to the disciples in the Taoist temple like today.

The reason why I started preaching at this moment was in response to the requests of Li Xianer and Jin Ming.

Originally, he planned to wait for Ye Fan's holy body to be fully developed, and observe how Ye Fan jumped directly from the seventh level of quasi-emperor to the half-step alternative enlightenment, in order to verify whether his deduction was correct.

Although "The Art of Transformation" can seal everything inside the body, he has no idea whether it will have the expected effect on enlightenment or whether it will become a shackle that locks Li Zhi himself.

Strong men at the quasi-emperor level have already evolved their own paths, so it is common for them to create various methods to assist in their practice.

However, it is not certain whether those secret methods to assist in spiritual practice are suitable and effective.

Many quasi-emperors who have ruined themselves did so because they underestimated the dangers on the path of cultivation, which led to problems in their own enlightenment.

Before this, Jin Ming and Li Xian'er asked Li Zhi how he planned to survive the last three "Supreme Difficulties", and Li Zhi told the children his thoughts without reservation.

However, after hearing Li Zhi's plan, they immediately became confused.

And raised various questions.

For example: If you block yourself and isolate yourself from the inside and the outside, how can you ensure that you don't go astray?
Also, how can we ensure that our own life source can be nourished without absorbing the essence of the outside world?
Li Zhi once told them that only true immortals can independently produce the essence of immortality in their bodies and then rely on their own strength to achieve immortality.

If life forms below the level of True Immortal want to achieve immortality, they must rely on the immortality substances between heaven and earth.

However, if a True Immortal wants to continue to grow into an Immortal King, he still needs to rely on the continuous nourishment of the universe. Even the practice of a True Immortal often requires the nourishment of an entire universe to support the normal practice of a True Immortal.

Only by becoming a strong person at the level of Immortal King can one's dependence on the external environment of heaven and earth be greatly reduced.

Facing all kinds of doubts from Li Xianer and Jin Ming.

Li Zhi also explained to them.

Tell them that there is a perfect Tao seed within the human body, and as long as they continue to tap the potential of the physical body, they can allow their own Tao to grow.

Of course, in this process, it is necessary to constantly breathe in and absorb the essence of heaven and earth from the outside world.

After all, the Quasi-Emperor is still far from being able to independently produce the essence of immortality and ensure infinite lifespan.

After listening to Li Zhi's explanation, Li Xian'er and Jin Ming were still not reassured. They always felt that "The Art of Transformation" was not meant for people who were making rapid progress, but more like for those who had exhausted their potential and needed to lock up their own avenue and essence to ensure their continued combat effectiveness.

Li Zhi also didn't know how to explain to Li Xian'er and Jin Ming the true function of "The Art of Transformation" so that they could understand the true meaning of transformation.

To become a mortal is not only to seal off one's own aura, but also to completely integrate the great principles that one has cultivated into the human body.

The process of a cultivator's transformation into a mortal is a process in which he completely integrates the great Dao that he has cultivated through comprehending the myriad ways of heaven and earth into the invisible Dao seed in his body, allowing this external Dao to become an internal Dao, thereby promoting the growth of his own Dao.

Finally, after completing the transformation into a mortal, the cultivator looks exactly like an ordinary person on the surface. There is no trace of the Great Dao on his body that is similar to the Myriad Daos of Heaven and Earth in the outside world. However, the Great Dao in his body seems to be able to rival the Myriad Daos of Heaven and Earth in the outside world.

By then, every inch of the cultivator's flesh and blood will contain the true meaning of the Tao, and the whole person will be the incarnation of the Tao and the carrier of the Tao.

To use the body as a seed means to use the physical body as a seed of Tao to carry one's own Tao.

In Li Zhi's opinion, the more perfect the body is, the closer the aura should be to that of ordinary people.

But the power of Tao is contained in every inch of flesh and blood.

With just an ordinary punch like that of an ordinary mortal, he can freely express his own path.

In Li Zhi's opinion, the method of the five secret realms is a method of humane cultivation, and one should not deviate from the essence of human beings in the process of cultivation.

If during the process of cultivation, one's own aura gradually becomes closer to that of an immortal or a god, it is undoubtedly a "wrong" evolutionary direction that deviates from the true meaning of the secret realm.

In the practice of the immortal system, the cultivator needs to constantly bring his life level closer to the immortal level during the practice, so as to achieve the life transition from human to immortal.

In the practice of the Shinto system, the monks need to constantly transform themselves into gods. With every step they take, they will evolve towards becoming gods, and finally achieve the ultimate leap and become truly immortal gods.

The practice of the five secret realms is essentially the practice of human beings. In the process of evolution, one should always maintain one's original appearance. There is no need to transform oneself into an immortal or a god. The final result of the transformation should still be "human beings". (The "human beings" here do not only refer to the human race, but all spirits in the world.)
Just like back then, in the ancient immortal era, foreign lands and immortal realms had completely different names for cultivators in the realm of longevity.

For monks at the same level and on different evolutionary paths, their titles are different. This is not only about the choice of path, but also about the "real name" of the evolutionary path.

In foreign lands, creatures in the realm of longevity are called immortals, while in the fairyland they are called true immortals.

In foreign lands, creatures at the level of Immortal King are called Immortal Kings, while in the Immortal Realm they are called Immortal Kings, and in the Burial Realm they are called Burial Kings.

Therefore, different cultivation and evolution systems use completely different names for monks at the same level of life.

Strictly speaking, there is no such thing as becoming an immortal in the five secret realms of Emperor Huang Tian, ​​and the system of immortals should not be used to divide the subsequent realms. Above the realm of the great emperor, the creatures at that level should not be called true immortals, immortal kings, or immortal emperors.

The method of the secret realm of the human body, as an evolutionary path that is completely different from the immortal practice system, cannot correspond one to one with the "immortality process" in the immortal practice during the transition of life.

There isn't even a necessary connection.

It's just that Emperor Huang Tian not only created the method of cultivation in the secret realm, but also practiced the immortal way of the ancient period and the divine way of the chaotic ancient period, so he was called the Immortal Emperor by the world.

However, after Emperor Huang Tian created the method of discovering the secret realm of the human body, the evolutionary path he took was completely different from his previous path to immortality.

It is impossible to use the realm division in the immortal realm to describe the path of cultivation in this system.

According to Li Zhi's understanding, although the Willow God in the ancient immortal period had already reached the level of an immortal king, people did not call her "The Willow God Immortal King" but the ancestral spirit.

For example, the Six Paths of Reincarnation Immortal King and the Infinite Immortal King, who are at the same level of Immortal King as the God of Willow, are addressed to the outside world as "So-and-so Immortal King".

Different evolutionary paths cannot be called randomly. They have "real names", just like the Immortal King in the foreign land and the Burial King in the Burial Realm. Since they are in a different system, they cannot be called "Immortal Kings".

For example, the pollen evolution path that exists in the land of heaven corresponds to the "Great Universe Realm and the Ultimate Realm" in the realm of true immortals.

Even the quasi-immortal emperors and different evolutionary forces have their own titles, such as the ultimate evolver, the Taoist ancestor, or the supreme one in the heavens.

Even the Immortal Emperor has a special title in the practice system of Pollen Road, "The End of the Road Level".

Therefore, in Li Zhi's opinion, the pursuit of the so-called immortality by the cultivators who practice the secret realm method is actually like a vehicle driving on a highway and suddenly jumping to another road halfway.

If one blindly pursues becoming an immortal, it would be like forcibly changing one's own cultivation system.

Even the cultivation methods of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths period when Emperor Huang Tian lived seemed a bit out of place to Li Zhi.

It is more like a method of cultivation that was forcibly pieced together from Shinto and Xiandao.

Below the realm of the gods, it seems like practicing Shinto.

However, there were differences in the three realms above the Heavenly God Realm: Xu Dao, Zhan Wo, and Dun Yi. Some people practiced the current methods, while others practiced the ancient methods of immortals, making the practice system no longer pure.

The law of the world is to pursue becoming an immortal god. Just like Liu Shen, he cultivated the body of the ancestor god and finally pursued becoming the emperor among gods, that is, the God Emperor.

The ancient method of immortality is to pursue becoming a true immortal, working your way up to become an Immortal King, and finally an Immortal Emperor.

Unfortunately, the Shinto practice during the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths period had obvious flaws, with immortals and gods mixed together and was not perfect.

There should be a clearer path for practice.

Therefore, Li Zhi felt that the longevity of the five secret realms should not be compared with the immortality in the realm of immortality.

After becoming the emperor, although he was able to overcome the calamity and become an immortal, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that this was a wrong path.

Constantly exploring one's own potential in the world and eventually obtaining the fruit of immortality is more like the right path of evolution.

However, this path seems to be broken and lacks a clear method of cultivation.

The cultivation methods of the five secret realms and the cultivation methods of the immortal system are not the same evolutionary path. It is inappropriate to use the realms of true immortals, immortal kings, etc. on the immortal evolutionary path to describe the levels after the great emperor realm.

However, Emperor Huang Tian has already used this evolutionary path to become a powerful being at the level of Immortal Emperor.

Why is there a clear absence?

Li Zhi suspected that Emperor Huang Tian did this on purpose, just to leave future generations with the opportunity to supplement, improve and expand the evolutionary path of the five secret realms.

After all, perfecting and supplementing an evolutionary path will bring infinite blessings of luck.

Moreover, the current situation of the emperor pursuing immortality may be related to the fact that Emperor Huang Tian practiced the way of immortality in the past.

Although the five secret realms were created by Emperor Huang Tian, ​​when Emperor Huang Tian was at the mortal level, he did not practice the secret realms, but a fusion of the ancient immortal methods and the divine methods. Only after he evolved to the peak mortal level did he create the secret realms of the human body.

However, Emperor Huang Tian only left living beings with the means to open the secret realm of the human body, but did not leave any method for how to continue practicing after the five secret realms evolved to the mortal realm.

Perhaps, this is the reason why the five secret realms were created. After reaching the pinnacle of the mortal realm, many emperors could not find the way out and pursued to transcend the calamity and become true immortals.

And those who practice hard in the worldly world life after life in the hope of achieving immortality seem to be forced onto this "correct" path.

But even though they were forced onto this "correct" path, they did not pass down the correct method of cultivation.

He even relied purely on his talent to complete his training from being a great emperor to obtaining the fruit of immortality.

Li Zhi felt that the method of the five secret realms lacked the names of the realms above the mortal realm.

How could this evolutionary path with unlimited potential only have names for realms below mortals? It should be like the immortal realm, with detailed divisions and descriptions of evolutionary levels equivalent to true immortals, immortal kings, and immortal emperors.

Don't think that naming the evolutionary path is a trivial matter.

When Emperor Huang Tian shouted out "Wheel Sea", "Dao Palace", "Four Poles", "Dragon Transformation" and "Immortal Platform", you can imagine how great the impact is.

Even the lords of the forbidden areas who were at the level of Immortal King back then were amazed at the power of this cultivation system.

The effect of having a real name is unquestionable.

In the ancient times of immortals, various branches of dragons in the primitive ancient world fought fiercely for the title of "True Dragon". In the end, the strong dragon who took the title of True Dragon evolved to the level of Immortal King.

Giving a system a real name that suits its various stages of evolution can bring good fortune to the entire evolutionary system.

Therefore, Li Zhi felt that starting from penetrating the five secret realms of the human body and entering the realm of enlightenment, there should be another realm name unique to the five secret realms cultivation system.

It is inaccurate to simply call them mortal immortals.

According to the process of Emperor Huang Tian, ​​Emperor Ye Tian, ​​Emperor Henren and others obtaining the fruit of immortality by relying on the five secret realms of the human body, with entering the peak level of mortals as the foundation, they can rely on their own strength to live one more life in the mortal world. Their life level will leap once, and finally in the eighth life, they gave birth to the fruit of immortality, and from then on, they will not be affected by the years.

But apart from the life they lived through relying on the fruit of the elixir of immortality, they actually lived through seven lives on their own and achieved the fruit of immortality.

Moreover, based on the changes in their lifespans in each life they live, it can be seen that a qualitative change occurs at that stage.

Their lifespans began to increase dramatically, and this was almost always manifested after they had relied on their own strength to live another life.

Take Ye Fan as an example. When he became an emperor in his first life, the life source of his holy body underwent a transformation, and on top of his original emperor-level life source, he gained an additional 10,000 years of lifespan.

The lifespan of an ordinary emperor is about fifteen thousand years, and the lifespan of a great saint is similar.

After Ye Fan became emperor, his life span reached 26,000 years.

It can be seen that becoming an emperor is a huge sublimation of Ye Fan’s life level.

However, after taking the elixir of immortality and living a second life, his lifespan did not increase accordingly. Although his Taoism had greatly increased, it was not reflected in the level of the origin of life, that is, there was no leap in the level of life, so his second life still only lasted 26,000 years.

But when Ye Fan lived out his third life by his own strength, everything changed, and his life span began to increase slightly. In the third life, Ye Fan lived for 30,000 years, which was 4,000 years longer than in the second life.

However, this increase is not yet significant.

After Ye Fan lived out his fourth life by his own strength, his lifespan began to increase dramatically. He had a lifespan of 56,000 years, which was a direct increase of 26,000 years compared to his previous life.

After his fifth life, his life span reached 78,000 years, which was 22,000 years longer than his previous life. After his sixth life, his life span reached 84,000 years, which was only 6,000 years longer than his previous life. This change was more like the change from a saint to a saint king in the mortal realm. There was no large-scale leap in life span that occurred after evolving from a slayer king to a saint.

After living for the seventh life, Ye Fan's lifespan exceeded 100,000 years, which was another significant increase compared to the previous life, directly increasing by 16,000 years.

After living out his eighth life, he experienced another 120,000 years of accumulation and finally achieved the Tao of immortality. From then on, he no longer experienced the passage of time.

Judging from the changes in Ye Fan's lifespan in the future, although he has achieved immortality in the mortal world by living nine lives in reverse, the increase in lifespan in each life is not greater than the previous one, that is, the increase in lifespan is not linear.

There are five key transformation nodes where lifespan increases dramatically.

The first time was when he overcame the tribulation and became an emperor, breaking the lifespan limit of the holy body and his lifespan directly increased by 10,000 years.

The second time was after he lived out his fourth life, when his lifespan suddenly increased by 26,000 years.

The third time was after he lived out his fifth life, when his lifespan continued to increase dramatically by 22,000 years.

The fourth time his lifespan increased significantly was when he lived into his seventh life, living 16,000 years longer than his sixth life.

The fifth time his life span increased dramatically was when he lived out his eighth life. After he reached 120,000 years old, the years began to slow down his body, and his own Qi and blood were still maintained. This was when he truly cultivated the immortality. The years affected by his life span were extended by another 20,000 years compared to the last time, directly breaking through the 120,000-year mark.

In addition to Ye Fan, the ruthless emperor also went through five crucial transformations before he achieved the fruit of immortality in the mortal world.

In the first life of the Henren Emperor, he used magic to forge a chaotic body, which eventually broke through and used his old body to refine it into the Heaven-Swallowing Demon Pot.

After her later transformation, she left four ancient coffins in the Chaos Dragon's Nest to store her old bodies, burying her four generations respectively.

A total of five crucial transformations were achieved.

According to the time calculation, when Li Zhi and Ye Fan arrived in Beidou in the Nine Dragons Coffin, the Henren Emperor might have passed the five most dangerous transformations and lived his seventh life.

This life is also another critical transformation node after overcoming the five initial difficulties.

In his seventh life, Ye Fan practiced the Eternal Great Dream and accumulated immeasurable spiritual power.

The Henren Emperor himself has also shown abnormal behavior during this period, with his soul appearing and disappearing. It should be because he has practiced a supreme method similar to the Eternal Dream, and his soul has left his body and traveled through the long river of time, causing his combat power to fluctuate greatly.

This life is the last years of accumulation for the ruthless emperor before he obtains the fruit of immortality.

The shadow of the fruit of immortality can already be seen.

Just wait for the ultimate leap and after another transformation, you will be able to achieve immortality in the mortal world.

By analyzing the paths of the ruthless emperor and Ye Fan in achieving the immortality fruit in the mortal world, Li Zhi vaguely saw a correct evolutionary path that completely belonged to the secret realm of the human body.

If one were to say that attaining the Dao and becoming an emperor or attaining Dao in another way was the end point of the cultivation of the five secret realms of the human body in the mortal stage, this path of cultivation could be compared to the mortal stage of the cultivation of the immortal way in the ancient times.

Then, starting from becoming an emperor to finally cultivating the fruit of immortality in the mortal world (that is, becoming an immortal in the mortal world), it is undoubtedly the method of the five great secret realms of the human body. Another level of practice is the process of practice comparable to the true immortal stage in the immortal system, and in the end, the fruit of the quasi-immortal king level is obtained.

Starting from condensing the fruit of immortality (becoming an immortal in the mortal world), the five secret realms will enter another stage of practice, which is roughly equivalent to the practice process from a quasi-immortal king to a true immortal king.

This is because, after Emperor Huang Tian sublimated the five secret realms of the human body and opened up the sixth secret realm, his cultivation level directly soared to the pinnacle of the Immortal King realm, that is, the level of the supreme Immortal King giant.

As for the Immortal Kings who have condensed the Quasi-Emperor Immortal Light in their bodies, they have already surpassed the realm of Immortal Kings. Strictly speaking, they are no longer Immortal Kings, but cultivators whose parts of their bodies have entered the realm of Quasi-Emperor.

From this point of view, the practice of the Human Body Secret Realm Method in the later stages is different from the step-by-step evolution process of True Immortals, Immortal Kings, and Immortal Emperors in the Immortal Realm.

In the process of cultivation without over-reliance on the external environment of heaven and earth, the secret realm of the human body can be cultivated to the true level of the Immortal Emperor.

Therefore, from condensing the fruit of immortality to opening up the sixth secret realm of the human body is a stage of practice, which is equivalent to the stage from the quasi-immortal king to the peak of the immortal king in the immortal system.

The process of the fusion of Emperor Huang Tian's sixth secret realm Dao Fruit and the five secret realms of his physical body is the process of cultivation from the Emperor Light Immortal King to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor. After finally opening all the doors in the body, it is the process of achieving the ultimate leap and becoming a true Immortal Emperor.

Therefore, in Li Zhi's opinion, Emperor Huang Tian is the emperor on the path of the secret realm of the human body, rather than the Immortal Emperor in the immortal system. Calling him the Immortal Emperor is obviously not enough to show that Emperor Huang Tian created the secret realm of the human body cultivation method, the supreme reputation he deserves on this evolutionary path.

Calling Emperor Huang Tian "Immortal Emperor", others thought that Emperor Huang Tian practiced the immortal system and eventually became a powerful person at the end of the road.

This is undoubtedly a misleading term.

Emperor Huang Tian left behind an introductory method to the five secret realms, which can allow cultivators to embark on the path of cultivation in the cruel environment of heaven and earth.

However, Emperor Huang Tian seemed to have only left behind the cultivation methods for the mortal realm on this evolutionary path. The subsequent evolutionary methods beyond the mortal level were not circulated in the human world.

It seems that Emperor Huang Tian deliberately left room for future generations to expand and refine this evolutionary system.

The five secret realm cultivation methods of the mortal stage have been studied by countless people and have become the current cultivation system.

Every ancient scripture created by a great emperor is a method to cultivate the five secret realms at the mortal level to the extreme.

Perhaps it is because of the lack of methods of cultivation that transcend the mortal realm that those cultivators who lack understanding, after reaching the end of the mortal realm, begin to abandon the development of the next stage and instead pursue the immortality of the immortal system.

This obsession with becoming an immortal is undoubtedly a wrong choice of abandoning the methods of the five secret realms and turning to the immortal system, and even a wrong path on the road of cultivation.

The cultivators who practice the immortal system need to improve their cultivation to the peak of the human supreme realm, transcend the calamity and become immortals, and then begin to practice in the immortal realm, evolving step by step from true immortals, immortal kings, and finally towards the immortal emperor.

However, the cultivators of the five secret realms, after practicing to the mortal realm, must evolve towards the direction of evolving the fruit of immortality in the mortal world.

Only in this way can we achieve the goal of not relying on the changes in the external environment and affecting our own combat effectiveness and cultivation.

But the reality is rather cruel. Those who can fight their way through life after life in the mortal world and finally achieve immortality in the mortal world seem to be relying on extraordinary talents to advance.

He did not leave behind any method of practice that later generations could copy.

Because Emperor Huang Tian was the pioneer of this evolutionary path, he struggled in the mortal world lifetime after lifetime. In the end, he relied on his talent to live eight lifetimes and achieved the fruit of immortality.

This is understandable, but if later generations continue to be arrogant in the world, life after life, wouldn’t that be disrespectful to this body’s evolutionary system?
The "Original True Explanation" left behind by the Corpse Immortal Emperor records the method of becoming an immortal in the mortal world.

The immortal emperor-level scripture "The Great Law of Transmutation and Freedom" created by Emperor Huang Tian naturally also contains scriptures that can help one achieve immortality in the mortal world.

However, this method of achieving immortality in the mortal world seems to have been lost in this world.

Perhaps Emperor Huang Tian did not want his descendants to continue along his path, and only left behind the five secret realms of cultivation in the mortal realm, hoping that later generations would be able to create new possibilities based on this evolutionary path.

Just like he relied on the ancient immortal law and the ancient chaos law to become the supreme ruler of humanity.
Later, he created a completely new cultivation system step by step, and eventually reached a level comparable to the Immortal Emperor.

However, the newcomers to this world, although they have made great use of the cultivation methods of the five secret realms in the mortal realm, various ancient scriptures of the emperors that can cultivate to the peak of mortals have emerged one after another.

However, there has been no achievement in creating the next stage of practice.

The later generations did not seem to realize what kind of amazing fortune would be brought about by the interruption of the evolutionary path for another day.

He still relied on his talent to survive in the mortal world and achieve immortality. However, this path of cultivation that cannot be replicated by future generations is not a true path of evolution.

In Li Zhi's opinion, those who can now live eight lifetimes in the mortal world and obtain the fruit of immortality have achieved it purely by relying on their unparalleled talents in ancient and modern times.

To the perfection of the cultivation methods of the five secret realms, this evolutionary path does not have much constructive effect.

They are not the ones who have completed the five secret realms' methods and the cultivation methods for the stage from the Great Emperor to attaining immortality in the mortal world, and perfected this evolutionary path.

Therefore, Li Zhi felt that this might be an opportunity left for him.

In a cultivation system, the founder can often reach an extremely high level, but that does not mean that the evolutionary path left by the founder is flawless.

Every carving and repair by later generations is actually an expansion and improvement of an evolutionary path.

Just like the various ancient scriptures of the Great Emperor that exist in the universe, each ancient scripture of the Great Emperor is a different explanation and development of the five secret realms at the mortal level.

And the various methods of longevity studied by those great emperors can, to a certain extent, be seen as the beginning of the cultivation process from a great emperor to a mortal immortal.

Unfortunately, from its inception to now, very few results have been achieved. We can only regard the research on the first method of transformation as completed. However, this research is not perfect and has various defects.

If one wants to transform from the pinnacle of the human realm to the birth of the immortal fruit (Red Dust Immortal), one must go through at least five major transformations, plus one ultimate leap, before the immortal fruit can be produced.

In other words, this process can be divided into at least six major realms.

Just like the practice in the mortal realm, there are six major realms: Sea of ​​Wheels, Palace of Dao, Four Poles, Dragon Transformation, Immortal Platform, Saint, and Quasi-Emperor.

Each major realm can also be split into smaller realms, either into a lower major realm or directly split into several or even dozens of smaller realms.

For example, the saint can be divided into saint, saint king and great saint.

The Xiantai can be divided into Xiantai One, Xiantai Two, and the King of Killing.

Strictly speaking, it is inaccurate to use the fourth level of immortality to describe the realm of a saint.

Because the practice of a saint is not simply the practice of the Xiantai Secret Realm, but involves all five secret realms.

According to Li Zhi's classification, there are only two secret realms in Xiantai: Xiantai One and Xiantai Two, and these two cover the division of eighteen small realms.

Starting from the King, it has been the overall transformation of the five secret realms. Calling it "Xian San" does not cover everything.

Li Zhi explained in detail and in a simple and clear way the various states of the mortal realm of the five secret realms.

That is, Li Zhi's "The Great Way of Longevity" contains various explanations of the secrets of the human body in the mortal stage of the five secret realms, which is the essence of spiritual practice.

After listening to this unprecedented explanation, all the disciples felt suddenly enlightened.

In the process of preaching, Li Zhi gradually gained a clearer understanding of his own future path of cultivation.

Only by looking back on the road we have traveled can we see more clearly the direction of progress.

Preaching to others is undoubtedly a detailed review of the road we have come, but it is also a wonderful outlook on the road ahead.

As exquisite scriptures came out of Li Zhi's mouth, the aura on his body began to become mysterious.

After he began to expound on the cultivation of the quasi-emperor level, the aura of the ancient emperor emerged from him.

Especially after he understood the four major stages of cultivation of the five secret realms, a strange light emanated from his body.

It seemed to light up the way forward for him.

The five secret realms are divided into four stages. The first stage is the mortal level of cultivation, from opening up the sea of ​​suffering to achieving enlightenment in a different way. (Similar to the perfect period, the stage from moving blood to the supreme.)
The second stage is from becoming an emperor to cultivating the immortal fruit that does not rely on external forces. (Similar to the stage from true immortal to quasi-immortal king.)
The third stage is from cultivating the immortality fruit to developing the sixth secret realm that is unique to the individual. (Similar to the stage from quasi-immortal king to the peak of immortal king.)
The fourth stage begins with the fusion of the Dao Fruit born from the sixth secret realm and the physical body, until all the doors of the human body are fully opened. (Similar to the stage from Emperor Light Immortal King to Immortal Emperor.)
During the preaching process, after realizing the stages and true meaning of the method of practicing the secret realm of the human body, the light rising from Li Zhi's body seemed like the light of enlightenment that had the ability to illuminate the past, present and future.

As the light of enlightenment condensed and took shape behind Li Zhi, it seemed as if a clearly visible and complete path of evolution was born under his feet.

This strange phenomenon startled everyone in the audience. They seemed to have seen the true meaning of a great way of cultivation in the constantly disappearing light and shadow.

However, Li Zhi did not seem to sense the light of enlightenment.

But a special energy began to spread.

It is very similar to the inexplicable aura that appears in the universe when someone becomes an emperor.

All living creatures on the entire Ziwei Ancient Star were enveloped by that aura, causing their souls to begin to tremble. Under the influence of that aura, they seemed to see the true meaning of cultivation.

At this moment, countless people have a new and clear understanding of the five secrets of the human body.

This feeling is like following a daily serialized online novel, and suddenly one day, you see the outline of the whole book, and thus know in advance the general direction of the whole story.

Although I don’t know the specific content of the subsequent chapters, I already have a general idea in my mind.

This is the case with the Ziwei creatures who are affected by the energy emitted by the light of enlightenment. It is as if at this moment they see what each stage before enlightenment should be like.

It seems that the road to becoming an emperor is right before our eyes, and as long as we practice step by step, everyone will have the opportunity to become an emperor.

Soon, this special energy of enlightenment rushed out of the ancient Ziwei Star and began to spread rapidly across the universe.

After sensing the aura of enlightenment emanating from the universe, countless powerful beings mistakenly thought that someone was about to achieve enlightenment, and all of them showed expressions of horror.

Powerful divine thoughts began to explore the universe, looking for the source of this breath.

Be it the Supreme Lord of the Vast Underworld who was confronting the First General of Heaven, Chuan Ying, or the imperial masters in the major life forbidden areas of Beidou, or even the Golden Crow Emperor who was lurking in the dark waiting for the best opportunity to become an emperor, all were alarmed by this breath.

Even Ye Fan, who was at the edge of the universe, was alarmed by this special aura of enlightenment.
