The Weird Way of Immortality: My Taoism Progress in One Day a Year

Chapter 183 Entering the Tao
Since the meteorite from outer space landed tens of thousands of years ago, the world has undergone tremendous changes.

There appeared a kind of new substance between heaven and earth, which was called spiritual energy by the world.

The wild beast gained spiritual energy, transformed into a monster, and spread cholera across the world.

When people gain spiritual energy, they imitate wild animals and embark on the path of spiritual cultivation.

This is the beginning of martial arts.

However, not everyone is suitable for martial arts.

Some people are born without martial veins in their bodies and are unable to embark on the path of martial arts.

Until a gifted genius appeared.

He sensed the spiritual energy and opened up a sea of qi in his body similar to a martial vein to absorb the spiritual energy.

He also analyzed the innate spells of the monsters and figured out how to use the spells, and put them to good use.

And many new spells were created based on this.

Since then, the warlock was born.

This amazing genius is the ancestor of the sorcerer school, named Taiqingzi, and he founded the Taiqing Palace.

Although Tai Qingzi's realm was only to condense the golden elixir and create the fourth level of sorcerer, he was not able to achieve immortality.

However, the Taiqing Palace lineage he founded has continued to advance the sorcerers' cultivation realm to a level that can compete with martial arts.

Since then, sorcerers have flourished, competing with martial arts and becoming a pillar of human race.

In addition to martial arts and sorcery, there are actually some niche traditions in this world.

But it is not at the first level and is far from being called the main path. It can only be regarded as a side path.

It is not easy to get started as a warlock.

Although one does not need to possess a martial vein, comprehending spiritual energy and condensing the sea of qi is much more difficult than martial arts.

Just by relying on one's own senses to gather spiritual energy into the body and step into the initial realm of the sorcerer, the ninth level of entry, one can stop 90% of the practitioners who intend to step into the path of sorcerer.

At least one must have outstanding talent to be qualified to become a sorcerer.

Therefore, although there is no shortage of strong sorcerers, their number is much smaller than that of practitioners who have embarked on the path of martial arts.

The only bright spot is that the life span of a sorcerer's practitioner is much longer than that of a martial artist's practitioner.

If you can condense a golden elixir, you can live for thousands of years.

And when one enters the upper three realms, the lifespan will be even longer.

The first-grade immortal who created the path of sorcerers, although ten thousand years have passed, is said to have survived.

But I don’t know where I am now, and I haven’t seen anyone for a long time.

The advantage of longevity is also one of the reasons why sorcerers can still thrive despite the difficulty of getting started.

So when Li Yan said that he wanted to be a sorcerer, Ruan Meng didn't find it strange at all.

After all, longevity is something that everyone should yearn for, no matter who they are.

Ruan Meng told Li Yan all the common methods of refining Qi.

This level of Qi-refining method is said to be the first version of Qi-refining method developed by Taiqingzi, the founder of Taiqing Palace.

It has long been out of date.

The Qi-refining method practiced by the Taiqing Sect today has been refined over tens of thousands of years and can be called the best Qi-refining method in the world.

However, the level of Qi refining methods can only represent the foundation of a sorcerer.

What level one can reach depends on the warlock's personal talent.

After Ruan Meng recited the Qi Refining Method, she asked Li Yan, "Have you memorized it, Ninth Prince?"

Li Yan nodded: "Thank you Miss Ruan, I have taken note of it."

"This Qi-refining method is only practiced by those independent sorcerers who have no master."

"Ninth Prince, you must not practice. Even if you cannot practice my Taiqing Palace Qi Refining Method at that time, I will find a more advanced Qi Refining Method for you."

"Ah."

Li Yan responded softly, but he was already deducing this Qi Refining Method in his mind.

"This Qi-refining method is actually not outdated. As long as one's perception of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is deep enough, the Qi sea opened up will definitely not be inferior to those advanced methods, and may even far surpass them."

After he deduced this method of refining Qi, he made up his mind.

The Qi sea opened up by this Qi refining method is related to the sorcerer's own affinity for spiritual energy.

Otherwise, it would not have been possible for Tai Qingzi to use this Qi-refining method to condense the golden elixir and enter the fourth level.

But not everyone has the talent to open up a large enough sea of qi like Taiqingzi.

Therefore, people later on continuously updated and iterated on this method of Qi refining, and eventually found a sophisticated method of Qi refining that did not rely on the affinity of spiritual energy, but was also able to open up a vast sea of ​​Qi.

However, for Li Yan, even if this method of Qi refining is simple, it is nothing.

Although his spiritual consciousness was suppressed by this world, he still had no problem sensing the spiritual energy.

Enough to open up a sufficiently vast sea of qi.

After all, the essence of his spiritual consciousness is that of the Emperor of the Real World.

In this world, he is in no way inferior to any immortal martial saint, and may even be better than them.

So after Ruan Rou left, Li Yan began to comprehend the spiritual energy, preparing to rely on this method of refining qi and embark on the path of a sorcerer.

For him, as long as he can practice, no matter what level of the method it is, it makes no difference to him.

The Qi-refining method created by Taiqingzi has very high requirements for comprehension in order to open up a sufficiently vast sea of Qi.

But what he lacks the least is understanding.

Therefore, this method of refining Qi is most suitable for him.

Li Yan sat cross-legged on the bed and began to rely on his own talents to comprehend the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. He entered the ninth level of the sorcerer path and entered the Tao!
The ninth level of entering the Tao is to comprehend the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

The deeper your understanding of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the easier it will be to condense your sea of ​​qi and step into the eighth level.

However, most of the cultivation methods of warlocks nowadays have already skipped over this realm.

Some geniuses in cultivation can even achieve enlightenment in three days.

Then he directly opened up the Qi Sea and stepped into the eighth-grade Qi Sea realm.

Because even if they lack some understanding of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, it will not affect their opening up of the qi sea.

But Li Yan is different.

The ancient method of refining qi that he practiced required an extremely profound level of perception of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

So as soon as he started practicing, he felt that his connection with this world was deepening.

My understanding of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has also become more profound.

"I see."

Li Yan seemed to be thinking about something.

Because of his spiritual thoughts, it was easy for him to perceive the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

What's more, he is very talented. Although he has only practiced for one day, it is equivalent to comprehending the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for a year.

With such progress, he has been able to open up his Qi Sea and enter the eighth level of sorcerer.

Moreover, the sea of qi that is opened up is in no way inferior to those top qi refining methods.

"But there's no rush."

Li Yan's eyes flashed slightly, and he suppressed the idea of stepping into the eighth level.

It is still too early now. Although his affinity with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has reached a level that is unimaginable for ordinary people through his perception.

But the limit has not been reached yet.

As the prince of Daxia, as long as he spreads the news of his assassination, his safety for the next period of time can be fully guaranteed. There is no need to rush for one or two days.

So he stepped out of the room and walked towards the entrance of Xiangshan Villa.
