The primordial era began with the Upper Cave Man.

Chapter 304 The Wisdom of Zhunti, the Path of the Earthly Immortal

Although the Path of Wisdom is a niche path, it is not without its evolutions. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for Luo Zu to use this to prove himself as a Golden Immortal.

Even though that senior has already reached a profound level of enlightenment, and many other great paths that connect with the Great Path of Wisdom have been fused into it, don't even think about taking a roundabout way to become a Golden Immortal.

As for who this senior is?

He is Zhunti Daoren, one of the two saints of the West, so who can compete with him for this great path?

But this does not hinder the wisdom of humankind; it merely means that the great principles have been taken over, just as the ancients also took over the elements of earth, wind, fire, and water. But did this prevent later generations from utilizing these natural elements? No.

However, if one were to engage in a battle of magic with such a being, and one's own cultivation level were even slightly inferior to itss, one would likely be restrained by it, or even... lose one's mind!

"No wonder those bald guys were able to convert their fellow practitioners with just a few words," Luo Zu thought to himself.

Of course, despite his feelings, he now suppresses any thoughts that might cross the minds of those important figures with the Five Fire Fan, lest they sense them.

Especially when it comes to talk about the "future," such as Buddhism, Taoism, Chan Sect, Jie Sect, etc., he would never dare to say a word more.

Otherwise, revealing heavenly secrets will incur divine punishment.

In another thirty years, Luo Zu's remaining spiritual energy brain should be able to be replaced with the Great Dao of True Qi. At that time, his calculation ability will be stronger, and he will be able to deduce more things in the world within the pot. It will also be easier for him to deduce his own Dao, and he will be able to capture his own flashes of inspiration faster. He will also be able to absorb the wisdom of the creatures in the world within the pot more completely.

However, he can only gather the thoughts of those below the True Immortal level. He has to exert all his strength to even roughly capture the thoughts of those above the True Immortal level.

The reason for this is that the primordial spirit of a true immortal has been refined into an immortal body, which can contain more information and thoughts. Furthermore, the immortal body is unified, and the thoughts are contained within the body, which can also shield some of Luo Zu's probing. This is why Luo Zu cannot easily collect their thoughts and ideas, and can only capture some random thoughts that are accidentally leaked out.

Perhaps when he achieves the Golden Immortal realm, he will be able to collect all the thoughts of a True Immortal.

Although there are few major events in the world within the pot these days, it is not entirely peaceful and tranquil.

There was one thing that Luo Zu was very concerned about, and that was the path of the Earth Immortals.

The path of Earthly Immortals is growing stronger, and a prodigy has entered it, unifying the various branches of the path of Earthly Immortals. However, this is only in theory and has not been successfully put into practice.

After all, Luo Zu has slowed down the "flow of time" in the world within the gourd, and only a little over twenty years have passed. This amount of time is not enough to deduce a complete cultivation method.

But once the theory was established, Luo Zu began to deduce it.

The deduction was swift, and Luo Zu directly opened up many nine-sided grotto-heavens on the membrane of heaven and earth in the human realm.

When Luo Zu opened up these nine grotto-heavens, he did not use the world within the pot; he opened them entirely using this method of earth immortals.

As the Nine Directions Grotto Heaven opened, Luo Zu could clearly sense streams of power flowing into his primordial spirit, purer than the high-energy spiritual energy in the primordial world, only slightly inferior to the radiance emitted by the sun, moon, and stars in the primordial world.

This is the cultivation of the Earth Immortal Path. There is feedback when the Dharma Domain is opened, and the feedback from Blessed Land and Grotto Heaven is even greater. As for opening up the heavens and earth, that is comparable to the Mysterious Immortal.

This is unlike the worlds that Luo Zu created from the world within the gourd. At most, Luo Zu could only borrow the power of these worlds. As for obtaining feedback from these worlds to improve his own cultivation, that was absolutely impossible.

Seeing the wonderful method, Patriarch Luo was greatly comforted.

But he still felt it wasn't enough.

The Dharma realm, blessed land, grotto heaven, and heaven and earth should be directly connected to oneself, rather than receiving only a little feedback from the blessed land and grotto heaven that have been opened up.

In addition, the spiritual energy required to open up a blessed land is extremely large. If an ordinary cultivator were to reach the critical moment of opening up a blessed land, it would be difficult to gather enough spiritual energy. Therefore, some assistance would be needed to collect some rare and precious materials containing high-energy spiritual energy in order to open up the land.

However, after the blessed lands and grotto-heavens were opened, the speed at which one could absorb spiritual energy changed considerably. This was a discovery made by Luo Zu after receiving feedback from the nine grotto-heavens.

"According to the novels from my previous life, mastering this method can improve one's cultivation aptitude," Luo Zu thought to himself.

Moreover, after observing Luo Zu, his idea was not wrong.

Having successfully opened the blessed land and merged one's own spirit into it, one can indeed breathe in and exhale spiritual energy from the void much faster and in greater quantities, thanks to the vast size and unique structure of the blessed land. This is at least ten times faster than that of an ordinary true immortal. If one were to practice the corresponding Qi cultivation method, the speed of breathing in and exhaling spiritual energy would be even faster.

It is highly likely to achieve a hundredfold effect.

But opening up an even larger cavern would be even more terrifying.

However, this method has one drawback: it requires one's own spirit to merge with the blessed land and grotto-heaven, meaning that if one suffers, all suffer; if one prospers, all prosper.

That's normal. How could he take all the benefits while leaving the blessed land to bear all the harm?

Luo Zu now cultivates the "Orthodox Qi Refining" method (which he created; he calls it orthodox, and who dares to object?). He possesses numerous techniques and is aided by countless beings within the world of the gourd, who draw upon the essence of the sun and moon for him. Therefore, he is not lacking in spiritual energy for his cultivation. Furthermore, due to the unique nature of his cultivation method, he can condense and store a considerable amount of immortal Qi. Thus, this method is somewhat of a waste for him.

In addition, he also opened a cave within his primordial spirit. This cave was not connected to the primordial world and was independent. No powerful beings outside could explore the secrets within the primordial spirit cave.

Therefore, Luo Zu no longer needs to open these caves to cultivate the methods of earth immortals and thus divert his energy.

However, one can extract its essence to strengthen one's own fundamental cultivation method.

Although he did not want to practice this method, Luo Zu still specially deduced a derivative of this method.

It involves merging one's own spirit with the earth's veins or spiritual veins, nurturing them slowly, and eventually developing them into one's own blessed land, which is then elevated into a grotto-heaven.

In this way, the amount of spiritual energy needed to create a blessed land can be greatly reduced, but it will take more time to nurture the earth's veins and spiritual energy.

Besides, there is another major drawback, which is the damage to heaven and earth. When such a blessed land takes shape, it will inevitably suffer a backlash from heaven and earth, which will be a true calamity.

This is tantamount to cutting off the flesh of heaven and earth to feed oneself; how could heaven and earth be willing to do that?

However, Luo Zu did not care that those who practiced this method would seize the human world. So after the deduction was completed, he spread this method, and it was still possible for everyone in the world to practice it, regardless of which power or race.

In truth, cultivators are essentially plundering the world, but since the world is so vast, they don't need to concern themselves with the cultivators within it.

As for spreading this method to the primordial world...

Luo Zu feared he would be struck dead by lightning.

He wasn't familiar with the Primordial Heavenly Dao, so it wouldn't give him special treatment.

As for the saying that Heaven and Earth will not hold a grudge against those who cultivate their minds, of course they will not. It's just that if there's an itch somewhere on your body, you always have to "scratch it." In the eyes of Heaven and Earth, this "scratching" is naturally not considered a matter of concern or targeting, but just a little instinctive reaction. However, this little instinctive reaction may be enough to make the cultivators inside suffer a lot. If they can't withstand it, they will die.

Luo Zu privately believed that he could not withstand the stress response of the primordial world.

After several years of calculations, Luo Zu once again traversed 100,000 light-years and finally arrived at the foot of Mount Diyue.

However, upon arriving at this place, they were immediately blocked by a group of witch clan earth witches.
