Cultivating Immortality Starts with Rubbing a Computer

Chapter 42: Balance of Life and Death
The next day, Hongsha City returned to normal.

The monks of Yunyan Pavilion claimed to have uncovered the truth of the accident. A month ago, an outer sect disciple was repairing the city's protective formation when an accident occurred. To avoid punishment, the incident was kept secret, leading to the explosion.

This disciple was also beheaded in the city as a warning to others.

Of course, conspiracy theories still have a market.

Fang Jun occasionally listened to the monks chatting, and they would still say some nonsense.

For example, if this mistake was made by a foundation-building descendant of Yunyan Pavilion, then that outer disciple was there to take the blame.

For example, if the criminal was not actually caught and the real perpetrator was an enemy from the extraterritorial war, then the outer disciples were actually there to take the blame.

For example, the fundamental reason was that the monks of Yunyan Pavilion were too corrupt and misappropriated the materials originally used to maintain and repair the formation. As a result, the formation became unstable and caused the earth veins to explode.

And that outer disciple is still used to take the blame.

But as time passed, whatever conspiracy theories there were, they faded away.

Seeing that nothing happened in Hongsha City, the monks gradually felt relieved.

In the end, they treated the explosion as an accident.

……

A month later, in the rented house.

Fang Jun, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, opened his eyes.

"After diligent training, the mana limit of Yuanshen No. 3 has increased by 243 strands."

[Magic Weapon (II): Yuanshen No. 3 (Qi Refining Level 4)]

[Energy: 24.00 | Mana (240000/240000)]

[Operating speed: 20 billion operations per second | Overclocking speed: 80 billion operations per second]

"It's done. Yuanshen No. 3 has reached the perfection of the fourth level of Qi Refining. It's time to break through."

Fang Jun muttered to himself, and without hesitation used his spiritual energy to reshape the Dantian of Yuanshen No. 3!
This process is extremely dangerous and is equivalent to rebuilding a deeper foundation for a building.

Therefore, this process must be carried out with caution. If the spiritual energy control level is not up to standard, the result will be damage to the elixir.

Therefore, in order to ensure a smooth breakthrough.

Fang Jun took a Qingling Pill and restored his spiritual energy control level to level 5.1.

In fact, the natal magic weapon is not human, and the upper limit of its endurance is much higher than that of humans. It is not required that the cultivator must reach his own corresponding spiritual energy control level before he can upgrade his natal magic weapon.

Otherwise, Fang Jun would not have been able to upgrade the Tianjun Sword to the sixth level of Qi Refining when his spiritual energy control level was only level 4.

But it’s never too careful when upgrading your natal magic weapon.

"Om-!"

The brass disc spun around in Fang Jun's dantian, and spiritual energy flowed slowly along the dantian of Yuanshen No. 3 under Fang Jun's guidance.

While dismantling part of the supporting structure, a new supporting structure was rebuilt.

Afterwards, Yuanshen No. 3's Dantian slowly expanded under the circulation of spiritual energy.

When the Dantian expands to a certain volume, the old supporting structure is completely destroyed, and the new temporary supporting structure established during the expansion process is also dismantled.

What replaces it is the latest supporting structure that comes with the expansion of Dantian.

This is the process of reshaping the Dantian in the process of breaking through the realm.

After the structure of Dantian was completely changed, it triggered a series of chain reactions, driving the growth of the "essence" and "spirit" of Yuanshen No. 3.

[Magic Weapon (II): Yuanshen No. 3 (Fifth Level of Qi Refining)]

[Energy: 24.01 | Mana (240100/300000)]

[Operating speed: 25 billion operations per second | Overclocking speed: 100 billion operations per second]

"Once the computing speed reaches 25 billion, I think my mental abnormality should be avoided."

"Next, choose to cultivate sword intent."

After thinking for a while, Fang Jun finally chose the Baiyun Sword Intent, which was of lower spiritual grade and had a mana quality of 2.5, from the Baiyun Sword Intent and Black Cloud Sword Intent.

Although he chose it for more than half a year, he ultimately considered safety.

The higher quality sword intent brings about greater changes in the sea of ​​consciousness and is more likely to conflict with the Red Cloud Sword Intent.

"Om-!"

Fang Jun took out a strand of magic power, integrated it into his spiritual consciousness, and began to change its structure.

The "Cloud Sword True Chapter" and "Black Cloud Sword Classic" that Fang Jun once obtained were not just a simple book that recorded the skills in words.

In addition to text, there are also pictures, videos, and most importantly, sword intent.

Yes, only the martial arts that possess the sword intent.

Only then can it be considered a true inheritance.

Otherwise, if you only practice with ordinary techniques, it will take an unknown amount of time, and you don’t know what kind of talent is needed to comprehend the artistic conception.

Even if there are other facilities to help you understand the artistic conception, it is still similar.

But with the inheritance from our ancestors, it is completely different. We can follow the instructions and comprehend it a hundred times more easily.

This is also why it is so difficult to comprehend the artistic conception.

The reason why forces that possess spiritual-level skills can also pass them down from generation to generation.

Talent is one thing, and resources are another.

Naturally, Fang Jun had already clearly analyzed the Baiyun sword intent, and he easily completed the replica just like last time.

Outline the white cloud magic power in the dantian.

"Alarm! Abnormal fluctuations in spiritual consciousness—"

Fang Jun's consciousness once again uncontrollably entered the state of Taoism.

But the difference is that now he possesses the Red Cloud Sword Intent and can resist such a situation.

Just use the Red Cloud Sword Intent to defeat the newly born White Cloud Sword Intent and prevent it from taking root in the sea of ​​consciousness.

Fang Jun can escape this dangerous drastic change in his thinking structure.

But how could he stop it? This was exactly the moment he had been waiting for.

The White Cloud Sword Intent in the sea of ​​consciousness began to expand rapidly, changing Fang Jun's thinking pattern. However, when this expansion invaded the territory of the Red Cloud Sword Intent—

The conflict occurred.

The Red Cloud Sword Intent began to resist, blocking the White Cloud Sword Intent from invading its territory. At the junction of the two, Fang Jun's sea of ​​consciousness became chaotic, causing permanent changes.

To put it in a more vivid way, the Baiyun Sword Intent itself has a set of mechanisms for changing the sea of ​​consciousness.

However, this mechanism could not handle the sea of ​​consciousness that had been changed by the Red Cloud Sword Intent, but the White Cloud Sword Intent still operated according to the fixed mechanism, and the result naturally made the sea of ​​consciousness a mess.

The Red Cloud Sword Intent itself also has a fixed mechanism. When it is changed by the White Cloud Sword Intent, it will also change spontaneously, resulting in an even more chaotic change.

It's not even as simple as just changing the mindset.

Even the memories carried by the sea of ​​consciousness will disappear, and the underlying structure of the sea of ​​consciousness may be damaged.

Generally, when a cultivator encounters this situation, he will take the initiative to establish an isolation mechanism between the White Cloud Sword Intent and the Red Cloud Sword Intent.

Isolate the two sword intents so that they do not conflict temporarily.

Of course, generally speaking, this isolation is not perfect most of the time.

Therefore, the monks' spirit will be affected.

Terms such as mood swings, second personality, madness, obsession, etc. will be used to describe this kind of imperfect and alienated monk.

This is why it is very difficult for a monk to possess two state of mind.

Not to mention having a third artistic conception.

It is because of this reason that people with three spiritual roots have no hope of breaking through to the golden elixir stage.

Why does Lei Pu look down on Fang Jun so much?
In addition to cooperating with You Zhimeng in acting, another factor is that Lei Pu himself has dual spiritual roots.

He has a much brighter future than Fang Jun, who appears to be a cultivator with three spiritual roots.

Therefore, he looked down on Fang Jun from the bottom of his heart.

However, no matter what was happening in his sea of ​​consciousness, Fang Jun remained unmoved by the conflict between the Red Cloud Sword Intent and the White Cloud Sword Intent.

His consciousness resided on Yuanshen No. 3, and he watched everything happen coldly without setting up any isolation facilities at all.

He allowed the two sword intentions to conflict with each other freely, as if he didn't care at all about the damage they would cause to his sea of ​​consciousness.

But when the destruction comes to an end, the two mechanisms will conflict with each other, change each other, and adapt to each other, and finally reach a perfect dynamic balance in the sea of ​​consciousness that has been completely destroyed.

You lose and I gain, I lose and you gain.

Among them, Baiyun Sword Intent accounts for 40% of the share, and Hongyun Sword Intent accounts for 60%.

"it's time."

Fang Jun's consciousness emerged, and Yuanshen No. 3 began to control the sea of ​​consciousness -

"Om-!"

As soon as they came into contact, the two sword intentions and Fang Jun's consciousness began to conflict violently.

The reason is that in order to restore the original appearance of the sea of ​​consciousness, Fang Jun must change the sea of ​​consciousness that has been modified by the two sword intents.

The two instinctive mechanisms of sword intent are naturally unwilling.

But Fang Jun was not afraid at all. When the sword intent changed back, he changed it back. They fought back and forth.

The only one suffering was Fang Jun's own sea of ​​consciousness.

However, Fang Jun had already figured it out when he was observing the conflict between the two sword intents just now.

The damage to the sea of ​​consciousness caused by this process is acceptable.

It can recover by relying on its own repair ability.

Therefore, Fang Jun fought with the two sword intents in his sea of ​​consciousness.

This is the path he chose personally.

He once considered whether to adopt orthodox isolation methods.

And with his abilities, he won't drive himself crazy like other monks, but can isolate himself perfectly.

However, in both the "True Chapter of Cloud Sword" and the "Black Cloud Sword Classic", there is a realm mentioned, that is, the path to the extreme.

This is a path that can be taken by cultivators with dual spiritual roots and surpass those with single spiritual roots.

There is no barrier between the two artistic conceptions.

Instead, let them achieve a balance between birth and death.

In this way, you won't be troubled by the worry of going crazy at any time.

At the same time, due to the balance of artistic conception, two artistic conceptions can be incorporated into the mana structure, making the quality of mana stronger.

Make the monk himself stronger!
That means the combat effectiveness is even stronger!

That’s why it’s called the ultimate way!
But the reason why Jidao is Jidao is because it is difficult, extremely difficult.

One must be a cultivator with dual spiritual roots who possesses extraordinary talent and sufficient resources.

According to the records of the exercises, successful dual-spiritual-root cultivators are far rarer than cultivators with a single spiritual root.

In fact, Fang Jun is not just pursuing combat power.

If there is a technique that can directly make one become an immortal, but its power is mediocre or even weak, Fang Jun can accept it.

Although the world of immortal cultivation appears orderly on the surface, it is actually a world where the strong prey on the weak.

If there is no strong fighting power to protect you, you are just a piglet in a pigsty, to be slaughtered at the will of the strong.

In addition, Fang Jun took into consideration that he had not yet achieved foundation building, and his physical brain carried the main memories and thinking structures.

And after the upgrade, the Yuanshen No. 3 becomes even more powerful.

Then why not try this powerful Jidao?
Anyway, when he comprehended the sword intent, he also went to the extreme of entering the state of Taoism, which was in itself many times more dangerous than the ordinary cultivator's comprehending the sword intent.

After an unknown amount of time, the turbulent sea of ​​consciousness finally returned to its usual calm, except for the numerous holes and two sword intentions on each of the left and right sides.

Nothing is any different from before.
