The Heavens: Man Covers the Heavens, Refines Treasures to Become an Emperor

Chapter 10 The Essence of Cultivation
"Okay, okay, all of you will enter my Lingxu Cave Heaven. You will never regret this decision today."

One of the old men stroked his beard and spoke with a smile.

“Without further delay, we shall return to the cave at once so that we can teach you the method of cultivation as soon as possible and let you recover your youth and vitality earlier.” After saying this, several old men nodded and waved their sleeves at the same time. Rainbow light enveloped everyone, and each of them took four or five people and flew straight into the distance.

Can't wait!

What a great harvest! Weiwei is worthy of being the fairy seedling of my Lingxu Cave Heaven.

An ordinary exploration actually brought back thirty seeds with good qualifications, so they were able to return as quickly as possible to prevent other shameless disciples from sharing the seeds with the cave heaven.

There are six caves in Yan territory, and Lingxu Cave is one of them. However, in the past few decades, Lingxu Cave has been in a state of disarray and has gradually fallen behind the other five caves. Among the young disciples, only Weiwei stands out. However, because she is too outstanding, the sect does not want to delay Weiwei's practice and recommends her to Yaoguang Holy Land. Fearing that there will be a gap in the cave later, several elders checked the qualifications of the group and urgently hope that everyone will join Lingxu Cave.

While flying along the way, several elders took the opportunity to promote the power of their own sects to everyone.

"We, Lingxu Dongtian, are a subordinate sect of a holy land, but our basic cultivation methods are definitely not inferior to those of the holy land. When your cultivation reaches a high level, Dongtian can even recommend you to practice in the holy land."

"A holy land is a Taoist tradition established by ancient saints or even the Great Emperor Jidao. Any place that can be named a holy land is a Taoist tradition that overlooks the world. Our Lingxu Dongtian is inherited from the Yaoguang Holy Land."

“If someone of extraordinary talent emerges among you in the future, it may be possible for you to enter the Holy Land, obtain the true teachings of the Holy Land, and go further on the path of cultivation.”

Everyone in the group listened carefully to the old man's introduction and took notes silently. When arriving in a foreign place for the first time, the first thing to do is to familiarize themselves with the basic knowledge of this foreign place.

"Lingxu Cave Heaven is located in Yan State. There are six cave heavens in Yan State, spanning three thousand miles. There are countless countries as big as Yan State in the East Wilderness. Even the most powerful people who have achieved success in cultivation cannot leave the East Wilderness in their lifetime."

"Eastern Wasteland, Southern Ridge, Western Desert, Northern Plains, Central Continent."

"Holy Land, Great Emperor, Demon Race, Ancient Family, Supreme Emperor's Soldiers."

Everyone was shocked by the vast world view. This was an extremely huge world with an extremely prosperous cultivation civilization and powerful cultivators as numerous as carp crossing the river.

Several elders in Lingxu Cave Heaven had high hopes for the group. With the qualifications of thirty people, it was possible for them to enter the Holy Land. Jiang Xuan, in particular, was probably a seeded player in the first echelon in the Holy Land and had the potential to compete for the title of Holy Son.

As time passed, the rainbow light gradually slowed down, and finally the group stopped under an ancient mountain with a fairy-like aura. Nearby, there was a huge rock several tens of meters high with the words "Lingxu" engraved on it.

Inside the mountain gate, there are clear springs flowing over rocks, cranes flying in the sky, towering pavilions and palaces, as well as medicinal herb fields, creating a fairyland-like atmosphere.

"Is this the sect where we practice? It's really magnificent, much more impressive than the sects of immortal cultivation seen on TV."

“It’s really a paradise on earth.”

"Haha, we're here. This is our Lingxu Cave Heaven." After arriving at the mountain gate, several old men looked a little relieved.

Soon someone from the cave was responsible for arranging accommodation for the group. Jiang Xuan, Ye Fan and Pang Bo were the youngest and seemed most suitable for practicing, so they were assigned to a nearby thatched hut, while the other students were arranged together.

Lingxu Dongtian is worthy of being an immortal sect. Although the residence is a thatched hut, this hut is not really made of ordinary grass, but is made of collected spiritual herbs through a series of methods. Practicing in the hut has the effect of concentrating the mind and focusing on one thing. If a mortal lives in such a hut for a long time, it will have the effect of strengthening the body.

After settling down and having nothing to do, Jiang Xuan began to think about his future path.

"The greatest opportunity is the Hongmeng Treasure Mirror. Although at this stage I can only passively wait for the treasure to be refreshed, and the treasure refresh is also irregular, it has still given me a lot of help."

"Since I can acquire the coordinates of the Tianlong World, I may be able to acquire the coordinates of a more powerful world in the future. Now that I have entered the Lingxu Cave Heaven, I don't have to worry about the cultivation environment and techniques."

“There are countless Dao patterns of magical weapons and divine weapons engraved in the treasure mirror. I have no clue at the moment as it is too mysterious. But after entering the Grandmaster realm, I can barely sense what kind of magical weapons these Dao patterns correspond to. It may be possible that I can refine these magical weapons in the future.” Jiang Xuan’s heart was burning as he sensed the Dao patterns of the magical weapons in the treasure mirror that could destroy the world.

"The second is the Bagua Furnace. It has not been absorbed by the bronze coffin, so it can be used as a tool at this stage."

Although he had not started practicing the Heaven-Covering Technique, Jiang Xuan had already thought about the weapon he would forge in the future. Especially after sensing the magic weapon patterns in the treasure mirror, he had coveted a certain weapon for a long time.

“Among the existing martial arts, it is impossible to practice the deceptive Wanyu Honglu Sutra. It is impossible to practice it in this lifetime. There are many other secret books, but they are not up to the standard in this world. The only Beiming Divine Art that I can show off is only top-notch in the world of martial arts, but it will be eliminated soon.” After Jiang Xuan became a congenital, he secretly sneaked into the Huanshi Water Pavilion and the Langhuan Jade Cave to read many secret books to enhance his own foundation. He is familiar with most of the martial arts secrets in the Tianlong world, even better than Wang Yuyan, who knows all the secrets.

The sun rises and the morning sunlight is warm and gentle.

Jiang Xuan and the other two sat in front of the thatched hut early in the morning, looking forward to it. Today was the second day of joining Lingxu Cave Heaven, and they would be taught the methods of cultivation.

A rainbow light flew over from afar, and inside the rainbow light was an old man with white hair and a youthful face. He was in front of them in a few breaths.

"Greetings, Senior. Who are you?"

The three of them bowed respectfully and looked at the old man with a sage-like appearance.

"I am the elder of Lingxu Dongtian, my name is Wu Qingfeng, and I teach all the disciples who have been here for three years."

"Meet the elder."

"You are Welcome."

Elder Wu Qingfeng was very peaceful. While he was talking, several people sat on the ground. The three began to ask various questions about cultivation. They knew nothing about the cultivation in this world.

“Do you think the sky is clean?”

"There are no clouds in the sky, the sky is clear blue, so it must be very clean." Ye Fan was the first to answer. Although he didn't know why he asked this, he answered this way when he saw the old man looking at him.

"Wrong, it's Endless Dust."

Elder Wu Qingfeng opened his palm and said, "Even within this small space, there is endless dust."

"What do you think this dust is?"

"Dust is dust, what else could it be?" Pangbo was puzzled.

“It is dust, and it is not dust.” The old man looked indifferent, like a god from another world.

"One flower is a world, one leaf is a bodhi tree. It can be a vast world or an endless world."

Jiang Xuan spoke.

"Well said, that's right. There are endless doors leading to the world, but mortals cannot discover them. The same is true for the nature of cultivation."

Elder Wu Qingfeng was very impressed when he heard Jiang Xuan's words. This young boy had such a keen understanding, and he was very suitable for cultivation because he had eaten the divine fruit. As for the sturdy boy Pang Bo, he still needed to be polished.
"Does the Buddhist verse have this meaning?" Pang Bo felt that his culture needed to be improved.

"Jiang Xuan is right. There is an endless world between the dust particles, and so are our bodies."

"Our bodies also contain endless doors, just like the dust particles between heaven and earth. Our seemingly tiny bodies contain countless doors. We should constantly develop these doors and discover our true selves. This is cultivation."

Elder Wu Qingfeng remained calm and asked, "Now, do you understand what cultivation is?"

Ye Fan frowned, as if he was thinking.

"I understand." Jiang Xuan said.
