Keqing, it’s just cultivating immortality, is it that difficult?

If you want to transform space into the world, the first thing you need is a cycle. This is a process of rebirth from death. As the master of space, Keqing can clearly feel the changes in it.

In the past, she had been troubled by how to achieve it and how to create a complete set of rules to solve this problem, because it required taking various factors into consideration.

Su, the system said that creating the world is also a technical job. It is a very difficult task to allow billions of rules and forces to circulate harmoniously and promote each other. Perhaps she can only change when she advances to a higher level and understands more rules.

But now, this problem has been solved by chance.

"Jianmu..."

Keqing couldn't help but feel complicated, as if a big pie suddenly fell from the sky while she was walking on the road, making her full all of a sudden, but at the same time, a sudden sense of uneasiness lingered in her heart.

After all, the appearance of Jianmu was indeed unexpected. Even now, Keqing doesn't understand why the current martial arts system dominated by Jianmu was formed. Even the rules within the space have been condensed into a collection of rules in the form of Jianmu.

"But, this is a good thing, isn't it? Although I don't know why such a change happened..."

However, Keqing secretly guessed that there must be some underlying reason for this change, and that there was definitely more to it than just a matter of luck.

The most likely scenario is that she had touched something related to Jianmu at some point in time and place, and thus carried its scent.

However, this is almost impossible. After all, when I deduced it, the technique seemed to have nothing to do with Jianmu.

"Could it be because of the space?"

Thinking back to the problems I encountered in the process of merging with space, does it mean that the problem of passively changing the exercises originated from within the space?

Thinking of this, Keqing's gaze naturally fell on Jianmu.

Perhaps, without realizing it, I had put something related to Jianmu into the space, maybe a branch or a leaf, and this might be the reason why the space was changing.

After all, even Keqing has heard the legend of Jianmu. It is said that Jianmu existed at the beginning of the universe, earlier than demons, worlds, and the starry sea, and is called the original "life".

Of course, Keqing has reservations about this, because no matter how you look at it, Jianmu is a tree, and how can a tree survive in the void of space? Even if it can survive, its form should not be a tree.

After all, trees have roots, and the roots need to take root in the soil and absorb nutrients to support the growth of the trees. And because there is the sun, trees need to grow towards the sun, so the tree groups grow upward.

However, as the original creatures, was there soil or sun at that time?

If the sun already existed, Jianmu could not be called the original creature. At least it could not give birth to countless worlds and even the sea of ​​stars as the legend said.

So Keqing was quite skeptical about this. Of course, she did not rule out the possibility that the facts were completely opposite to her guess. Perhaps it was not because Jianmu needed to absorb nutrients from the earth that it developed roots and rhizomes. It might be because Jianmu itself was like this, so trees in later generations had roots and rhizomes to absorb nutrients.

It is like it is not the fire that dries up the water and causes it to evaporate, but it is the water that evaporates and therefore absorbs the heat of the flame.

Although the result is the same, the meaning is completely different.

Keqing’s thoughts flashed through her mind, and she no longer delved into Jianmu’s existence.

Then she measured the size of the space.

It may be because of the existence of Jianmu. Because its crown is round, the expanded space is not an irregular shape, but exists in a circular form with Jianmu as the center.

Perhaps because of this, the current terrain appears somewhat rigid, as if it was pieced together abruptly, giving people a feeling of stitching.

The edge of the space was as empty as before, surrounded by grayish-white fog, with an area of ​​about 100,000 square kilometers.

"A little smaller..."

It is much smaller than before, and the original space area is obviously larger than it is now.

However, on second thought, small is not necessarily a bad thing. What's the use of having a large space? If it is too large, the quality will be lower and the vitality will be diluted. In general, the extra space will be as useless as a wasteland.

In contrast, nowadays, every piece of land is full of vitality, like a paradise.

Between a million square kilometers of wasteland and a hundred thousand square kilometers of paradise, it is obvious that the latter is more valuable.

"Moreover... the space is still slowly expanding... in the near future, it is likely to return to its previous size, or even larger."

Not to mention that the space is now alive and self-sufficient.

Keqing could feel that the space was gradually expanding at an extremely slow speed, starting from the border, expanding three to five meters every hour.

As the expansion progressed, the thick fog slowly dissipated.

Although this speed is very slow, maybe it can be faster if the power is sufficient?

But being able to expand is already a very good thing.

Keqing thought to herself that now she had a general understanding of the situation in the space and was very satisfied.

Chapter 709: The Essence of the Technique and the Spiritual Veins (4000)

After careful observation of her surroundings, Keqing gained a preliminary understanding of space. Now, she and this space are closely connected, and the growth of space means her own improvement.

However, although this space is called the second Dantian, it does not mean that she can use all the resources in the space unscrupulously.

At least at the current stage, her relationship with space has not yet deepened further.

The "deepening" here does not refer to the control over space, but to the connection between her cultivation and space.

The practice has just begun, and the application of space is still in the primary stage. Everything is not as smooth as before, and she is not free and at ease. The space cannot truly become her second dantian that she can control at will.

However, Keqing is convinced that as her practice deepens and her skills become more and more perfect, her connection with the Chen Ge Pot will become closer and closer, and this so-called second dantian will eventually live up to its name and become as easy as using one's own arm.

"Now, I can indeed mobilize the power of space, but it is only a small part..."

Keqing felt it carefully and found that the current space was like some kind of external organ that was still somewhat broken and could not be used with ease.

This is because the earth-shaking changes in Genesis have just begun.

When you have just started practicing, if you want to fully utilize the power of space, you need to create a closer connection between space and yourself so that the power of space can truly become your own power.

Practitioners need to refine external spiritual power into their own spiritual power before they can use it. Similarly, the control of space also needs to be refined. Only by allowing oneself to be immersed and grow in the growth process of space, and at the same time integrating into the space and becoming a part of space, can one achieve thorough refining.

This fusion is not a fusion at the physical level, but a fusion at a higher level, or a transformation.

Humans are ultimately living beings, not the world itself; similarly, the world will not become humans, the world is always the world, not living beings. The two are fundamentally different. If you want to make the world a part of yourself and incorporate it into your cultivation system, transforming and reforming it will be an inevitable process.

This is the core goal of the practice.

That means changing the world.

The process of creation is actually the process of changing the world. The Jianmu tree standing in the space is not only the embodiment of the technique, but also the concrete embodiment of one's will and aura in this process of changing the world.

With Jianmu as the core, change the original rules of space to make it more consistent with oneself and become a part of oneself. At the same time, use one's own cultivation and creation process as a reference. The two are interdependent, allowing the new world to cover the old world.

In the end, the world is still the same world, and one still has control over the world, but everything has changed.

If we have to find a metaphor, it is that Keqing arranged a heavenly way for her own space, and that heavenly way is herself.

No, the Way of Heaven is still limited, limited by the world itself. If you want to describe it more accurately, it should be the Great Way.

The process of creation is to let it become the avenue of the world in the process of space growth. In this way, the world can truly become the second dantian that can be driven at will.

This is not a simple creation, but a unique transformation and common growth.

It is different from the creation of countless small worlds by gods. When gods create the world, they just follow the rules and use the power of all things to create. Although the small world belongs to them, it is not theirs.

This world was created by gods, who have the power to control it; however, the world has been independent since its birth, and even gods cannot easily destroy or arbitrarily control it, otherwise they will suffer the consequences of cause and effect and be harmed.

Just like a fruit farmer planting fruit trees, although he plants the trees with his own hands, he cannot completely control the growth, shape, and fruit variety of the trees. They can only develop according to the varieties initially planted.

However, Keqing's way of creation is different. The trees she plants are created from nothing, and she can change the growth direction of the trees at will. She can even turn fruit trees into vegetables, or turn upward-growing trees into downward-growing ones.

Such creation gives her absolute control over her own world. Because of this, this world can exist as the second dantian and will not be controlled by external forces.

"Creation" is also her method of cultivation. Space is her second dantian in the future. How could she not have control over her own dantian?

Of course, this situation can only be fully realized when the practice of the technique is fully achieved. At present, Keqing has not reached that level and can change the world inside her body at will.

As it stands, the space has only been initially integrated and has not yet been completely transformed.

However, she can only quote part of the power in the space without affecting the space. When these powers are used as mana, 90% will be consumed due to the conversion rate of only 10%, and less than 10% can be used.

After all, he had just started practicing this technique, and the fact that he could make the power of space a part of his own power had already proved how powerful this technique was.

But even so, it was enough for Keqing.

Traveling against the current, retreating if not advancing.

"Oh, there is also the spiritual vein... I don't know what's going on with it..."

Keqing suddenly remembered the spiritual vein from before. In her memory, during the moment of divine punishment, she only tried to gain energy without giving it too much thought. She simply drew out the spiritual vein quickly and cut off a section of it.

The method used at that time was really rough. One cut would inevitably cause damage to the spirit vein. Although it was a helpless act, it had already caused consequences. Keqing murmured softly.

"I just hope that the spiritual vein won't collapse because of this."

All things have spirituality, and spiritual veins are no exception. Although it is difficult for spiritual veins to derive spiritual intelligence, they do have spirituality. Strong spirituality means strong potential, while weak spirituality means weak potential. Keqing is worried that her rough behavior will damage the spirituality of the spiritual veins and cause damage to the foundation.

"But now that things have come to this, there is nothing we can do about it."

Keqing sighed.

It was a last resort and an emergency. At that time, I didn't know what would happen in the future.

As for the consequences, we can only take one step at a time and make up for it later.

In history, there have been cases where spiritual veins were damaged, and spiritual energy gradually dissipated after overflowing. Keqing was also worried that her own spiritual vein would be in the same situation.

Worried, she carefully explored the location of the spiritual vein. Her consciousness spread out in an instant, and soon she found the existence of a spiritual vein in a mountain range. In an instant, Keqing disappeared, and when she reappeared, she had already arrived in the mountains.

In the rocky mountains, strands of translucent light flowed slowly along the veins of the mountains and rivers. In the space, colorful crystals sparkled like gems, and the rainbow seemed to materialize.

"This is..." Keqing was surprised. She didn't expect that there were so many spiritual stones near the spiritual vein, and the quality was not bad.

Keqing had expected that there would be spiritual stone mines near the spiritual vein, but she didn't expect that this was just a newly born spiritual vein, how could so many spiritual stones suddenly appear. Although these spiritual stones were not many, and compared to the mineral veins outside, they were only pitifully small, but the important thing was that this spiritual vein was originally a newly born spiritual vein, so how could it have such a huge energy.

Only when a spiritual vein develops to a certain extent can it produce large quantities of mineral veins. However, Keqing remembered that the previous spiritual vein did not seem to be able to do so. It could only occasionally produce a dozen spiritual stones every day.

It is absolutely impossible to produce so much in such a period of time, and with such good quality.

The most likely scenario is that these spirit stones did not appear before, but appeared after the creation of the world.

Keqing suddenly became curious about what had happened to lead to the appearance of so many high-quality mineral veins.

I had clearly cut a section of the spiritual vein, but it seemed like a blessing in disguise, and I seemed to have improved it? Was there something I didn't know?

Keqing followed the breath of the spiritual vein and walked inward. The hollow space became smaller and smaller, and gradually turned into a solid mineral vein. However, as the master of the space, Keqing would naturally not be blocked by these mineral veins. She was like a transparent existence, invisible and intangible, walking in the mountains and rivers.

Within the coverage of the divine consciousness, countless light-colored spiritual lights spread in all directions along the veins of the mountain range from the direction of advance, like the passages of an ant nest, omnipresent and interconnected, covering the entire mountain range.

The aura of the spiritual vein spread outward like a spider web, covering the entire mountain range, and is still expanding outward. And every place where a spiritual line of light is attached, more or less spiritual vein associated minerals are produced.

Because the spirit veins emit their own spiritual energy all the time, this spiritual energy condenses year by year, but because of the congestion underground, the spiritual energy is condensed and does not disperse. It then assimilates the nearby rocks bit by bit, and after a series of infections, it gradually forms the condensation of spiritual energy - the spirit stone.

External spiritual energy needs to be cultivated and refined before it can be transformed into a part of the cultivator's mana, and the same is true for spiritual stones. However, unlike the external spiritual energy which is mixed with various impurities and unnecessary forces, the spiritual energy in the spiritual stone is clean and pure. Therefore, the absorption speed and cultivation speed of the spiritual stone are very different from simply absorbing the spiritual energy in the air.

Therefore, although the world of cultivation is full of spiritual energy, spiritual stones are still loved by everyone as currency and cultivation objects. Not to mention that spiritual stones can not only be used for cultivation, but also for arranging formations, as energy supply for magic tools, and can also be used to draw talismans and maintain large formations. Therefore, in the world of cultivation, the so-called wealth, companions, magic and land, the amount of wealth is crucial, and the wealth largely represents spiritual stones.

Keqing knew that she had enough spirit stones, and could buy whatever treasure she wanted, not to mention that higher-level spirit stones were as valuable as natural treasures.

She had even heard that some special spiritual stones could be easily transformed into a part of cultivation, and could even have various effects such as strengthening the body, clearing the mind, transforming the physique, and tempering. However, the spiritual vein in front of Keqing could not produce the special spiritual stones rumored, but as she looked towards the center of the mountain, the quality of the surrounding spiritual stones gradually improved, and some were even close to the standard of top quality.

Although it is only a small amount, it is there, and there is a hint of dragon's breath in it.

"Is it the little silver dragon?"

If we talk about anything related to dragons, there is nothing else except the little silver dragon.

After coming out of the secret realm, in order to avoid trouble, Keqing put the little silver dragon into the space.

So if it is this aura, it can only be from the little silver dragon.

"As a dragon, the little silver dragon passively possesses the ability to bless good luck and blessings. Could this be the reason?"

This made Keqing guess in her heart. Even with the lucky passive bonus of the little silver dragon, the small spirit vein would not be able to emit such a huge amount of spiritual energy.

She still remembered that she had cut a section of her spiritual vein before, so she must have been seriously injured.

Is there some kind of blessing between the dragon and the spirit vein? Or does the little silver dragon have some other ability that can change the spirit vein?

Keqing wasn't quite sure either, so she could only walk inside with confusion.

Soon, as the aura became thicker, the number of high-quality spirit stones around increased. Although they were only scattered, it was obvious that the spirit vein that was thought to be severely damaged had become stronger than before. After all, it could condense high-quality spirit stones.

Suddenly, the scene in front of me became clear, and a wide space appeared in the mountains. A faint halo was suspended in the air, and countless threads flowed out of it, spreading in all directions.

In it, a silver dragon hovered above the halo, as if clinging to a light-colored white cloud with a hint of golden light.

Above.

"Owner?"

"Man Ruo?"

Keqing looked in the direction of the voice and saw an anthropomorphic spirit shaking its head with a small basket in its hands. Who else could it be but Man Ruo?

"Why are you...here..."
