Under One Person: Brother Zuo, I have reached the Nascent Soul stage

Walking in the valley is like walking on the spine of a giant.

Jiang Liu looked at both sides of the mountain wall and was soon attracted by a series of lines.

He realized almost instantly that these lines were the secret to constructing the natural Qi field here, allowing the Qi to flow smoothly along its original path.

Jiang Liu walked very slowly along the way.

At the same time, he was also carefully experiencing and correcting the path of the Qi in his body.

Gradually, in addition to the original lines, new lines appeared on the golden elixir in Dantian, and it became inexplicably larger.

"Practicing here will speed up my progress."

"The Qi field here is more like a huge gathering array."

Jiang Liu looked around, imprinted the patterns on the mountain wall in his mind, and quickly understood the principle.

Using the natural world as the formation and patterns to outline the natural human body and induce the flow of Qi from heaven and earth, this kind of thing will shock you just by thinking about it.

Even if it was not done by an immortal, it would be impossible for an ordinary person to do it.

What is even more incredible is that the purpose of Zi Yang Zhenren is to educate all living beings, but he actually wants to lead the monkey to transform into a human and eventually become an immortal.

What an ambitious ambition!

Jiang Liu continued to walk, and an illusory human body pattern gradually appeared in his mind.

The spine is the valley, and the internal organs and triple burner meridians on both sides are the mountain walls.

Gradually, the veins and patterns of the mountain wall were engraved into the body.

Then, something surprising happened to him.

The world inside the body was emitting light, and an invisible formation was formed.

This is a natural formation that is engraved inside the human body and hidden in the organs and tissues.

From this moment on, the Qi from the outside world quickly gathered along its pores and turned into whirlpools.

His body began to spontaneously absorb the true Qi from the void to fill the emptiness in his body and gather towards the golden elixir in his Dantian.

“It’s amazing!”

Jiang Liu murmured.

In this valley, he felt the gathering of Qi and also saw the dispersion of Qi.

This also means that the invisible array pattern in the body can open and close on its own.

"Throughout the ages, I wonder if anyone has ever tried to carve these patterns on the mountain wall onto themselves."

“But I tried it, and it felt pretty good.”

Jiang Liu strolled with a smile.

As the pace quickens, the circulation of the true Qi in the body also becomes faster and slower.

After a while, he entered the Jiuqu Panhuan Cave.

Looking around, the cave was full of inscriptions, and even the ground had many marks.

Jiang Liu glanced around silently, and after a moment he looked away.

Many martial arts secrets are hidden here, as if left for future generations.

He did not stop, but continued walking.

“It is difficult to be born as a human being.”

Finally, Jiang Liu found a secret room.

Looking up at these four words, he seemed to understand the meaning behind these simple words.

"What is a human being?"

He thought of the words at the entrance.

Be a man of integrity.

How difficult it is to transform from a monkey to a human.

You must first stand on the ground before you can reach the sky, and then you become a human being.

It took mankind such a long time to evolve into human beings. How can we imagine the difficulty involved?

It is difficult to obtain a human body!

And based on this, what is immortality?

How long will it take for humans to evolve from humans to immortals?

If you want to eventually become an immortal, you must first establish the most superficial and simple concept.

What is an immortal?

As a human being, we are upright and upright, so what is the basis for defining an immortal?

For a moment, Jiang Liu felt a little dazed when he thought of this.

This question actually stumped him. For a moment he felt as if his soul had left his body, and he even felt extremely panicked and terrified.

Because, if there is no answer.

The so-called reaching the sky, the so-called becoming an immortal, are nothing but nothingness.

"Did Zhang Ziyang get the answer?"

"Did Lu Zu get the answer?"

"Did Zhang Sanfeng get the answer?"

"Did Emperor Xuanyuan get the answer?"

"Does Guangchengzi have an answer?"

He looked up in confusion and just stood there.

Standing at the door of the rare cave of human life, he fell into endless contemplation.

At this moment, time seems to stand still, yet it seems to be passing rapidly.

Jiang Liu was completely immersed in this question. He was thinking and asking himself the answer.

"What is an immortal?"

"What is a fairy?"

"What is a fairy?!"

He murmured.

In the Twenty-Four Section Valley, a circle of invisible air currents was expanding and creating ripples.

Everything, every scene, seems to be moving away.

Everything, everything, seemed to be meaningless to Jiang Liu.

Only three words are left.

What is an immortal?

Chapter 87 Epiphany

Jiang Liu's clear eyes were now confused and were even rapidly becoming dim.

He had been familiar with classics since childhood and possessed supreme talent. He could deduce the movement of the stars, transform one Qi into the Three Pure Ones, comprehend the essence of Qi, and finally find a unique path to becoming an immortal.

From condensing the five elements of yin and yang to transforming liquid into elixir, everything he did was extremely successful. It couldn't be called smooth, but it was very smooth.

But until this moment, when he saw the question of what it means to be a human being, he was confused.

What is an immortal?

There seemed to be countless echoes resonating in his mind, all shouting at him, trying to get an answer.

It can be said that Jiang Liu entered the most dangerous moment in his life.

Power may not make people lose their way, because it is ultimately in the hands of humans, but Tao can easily destroy a person.

This is a level that ordinary people will never be able to understand, because the realm and the points of concern are completely different.

Just like ordinary people are concerned about how to become an official and make money, but when it comes to Jiang Liu's level, there is only one path he yearns for: cultivation.

Family saying: "He who does not eat is immortal and divine."

Shuowen Jiezi: "Xian means immortality first, from people and mountains."

Explanation of the name: "To grow old but not die is called an immortal."

Zhuangzi's "Xiaoyaoyou" says: "On Miaoguye Mountain, there lives a supernatural being, whose skin is as white as ice and snow, and whose figure is as graceful as a virgin. He does not eat grains, but breathes the wind and drinks dew, rides on clouds and controls wind dragons, and roams beyond the four seas."

······

Throughout the ages, there has never been a lack of descriptions of immortals in the surviving classics.

"Is immortality the way to be an immortal?"

"Does the immortality of the soul make one an immortal?"

"Transforming the whole body into a fairy?"

"To see through the thread of fate at a glance, is that an immortal?"

"The dead are alive, the flesh is white, the bones are white, is this what it means to be an immortal?"

Jiang Liu opened his mouth and said quickly,

He seemed to be asking himself questions, and with each question, the light in his eyes refocused.

"Control your own destiny and protect your disciples to become an immortal!"

"He came from among humans, lived in the mountains, had infinite power, had a heart for goodness, saw through the rules of the world, and held the authority of heaven."

"It's for the immortals!"

Jiang Liu laughed and took a step into the cave.

He understood what an immortal was, or at least understood the path to immortality that he was heading towards.

It was also from this cave of what it means to be a human that he understood Zhang Ziyang’s state of mind at that time, or in other words, the realm he ultimately reached.

Are there immortals in this world?

Entering the cave, you will find the most mysterious and deepest part of the Twenty-Four Section Valley, where the treasure of True Man Zi Yang is kept.

Jiang Liu took a step forward and looked around at the symbols left on the stone wall. He seemed to sense something and slowly closed his eyes.

"I see!"

"I see!"

A smile appeared on his lips, and he began to accept the treasure left behind by the ancient cultivator.

At the same time, various insights came to my mind.

Judging from the clues and signs everywhere, Wu Gensheng seems to have never been here.

As time passed, Jiang Liu was completely immersed in it.

These twenty-four valleys seem to have the power to help people attain the Tao. The valley in front can assist in the circulation of Qi, and this cave can help people realize the Tao and obtain the information they want.

The golden elixir in the abdomen glowed brightly and was covered with circles of patterns that looked like clouds.

He did not see the realization of the eight wonders of later generations, but gradually realized the path he was on.

"Refine Qi, build foundation, golden elixir, Nascent Soul."

"My path has never been so clear in my eyes, and I can even see the flaws and defects that I missed before."

Jiang Liu suddenly realized.

He has regarded these twenty-four valleys as a place for enlightenment, to perfect his own path.

This is the secret method to heaven, which can lead to true immortality.
