Chapter 173 [Body like the ancient sky, bitter sea turned into medicinal field]
Before leaving the ancient forbidden area, Lin Xian and his party once again came to the abyss surrounded by nine holy mountains, paid homage and prayed for the Great Holy Body.
Unfortunately, there was still no response. This huge ancient forbidden land was deserted and lonely, and not a single sound could be heard.
"The hero is old..." This made Ye Fan very disappointed. He whispered, "Even someone as strong as the Great Saint Body can't get rid of the curse. Is this the fate?"
"Time is like a knife that cuts off the geniuses, and the road to immortality is like a sigh of enchantment." Fairy Zixia also sighed. Although she was very young, a peerless fairy with ethereal skin and jade-like bones, her heart was very cold at the moment, as if she had a glimpse of her own gray hair and old age.
Who in the world can survive?
No matter how stunning and charming you are, you will eventually be just a skeleton. No matter how powerful and majestic you are, you will eventually be just a pile of earth.
"You are just bullying the old Saint." Lin Xian sneered: "If the Great Saint is in his prime, his blood and energy will soar into the sky, and he will dominate the universe. Who would dare to come to him with such an ominous curse?"
"The Wu Shi Emperor is also a holy body, so why hasn't he been cursed? The Underworld was killed by the Wu Shi Emperor, so it had to use the Tong Tian Immortal Treasure to hide in the secret realm for tens of thousands of years and dared not show up. If the Forbidden Zone Supreme dares to show up, he will be killed in seconds."
The Great Emperor!
When this name was mentioned, both the Holy Body Ye Fan and the Innate Tao Fetus Zixia had a strange look in their eyes.
The sword kills the genius, time is ruthless, and the truth of the universe, in front of Wu Shi, Henren, and these emperors, seems to have lost its restraint and transcended nature.
“Have they become immortals?” Ye Fan asked tentatively, his eyes deep. If one had the power of the Wu Shi Great Emperor, it would not be the underworld looking for the holy body when it came to disaster, but the holy body looking for the underworld when it came to disaster.
"On the way, they are all experimenting with the method of immortality. Every great emperor's path to becoming an immortal is different. There is no question of superiority or inferiority, just intersections."
"If I continue to suffer like this, and wait until the years are over, I may become an immortal."
Lin Xian bowed again and threw the copy of the Six Paths of Reincarnation Heavenly Art that he had written in advance into the ancient abyss. Although he didn't know what the connection was between this immortal art and the holy body, he had to give it a try.
When one reaches the stage of supreme enlightenment, most of the scriptures in the world have lost their effect, and everyone has his own unique path.
If the direction is correct, a few words are better than a hundred volumes of immortal scriptures. If the direction is wrong, even if the immortal king's scriptures are placed in front of you, they are useless.
It was unknown how long after Lin Xian and his companions left, two completely different voices echoed from the bottom of the abyss.
"Reincarnation?"
"Six Paths!"
……
After coming out of the ancient forbidden area, Lin Xian did not rush back to the Northern Region, but stayed in the southern region of the Eastern Wasteland for a while to reminisce with old friends.
Jiang Tingting's grandfather Jiang Haisheng has been in Yuding Cave Heaven, accompanying Elder Ma Yun. The two have a lot of topics to talk about and both have a great interest in business.
In just a few years, the two old men had a second spring in life. They embarked on the business road, formed a car fleet, and their business scope spread across the seven nearby mortal kingdoms.
Lin Xian once wanted to lead Jiang Haisheng on the path of cultivation, but the old man refused.
"I am already very satisfied to watch Tingting grow up and see her move towards a broader world."
Jiang Haisheng shook his head and said, "As for the cultivation world, why would an old man like me get involved? I am very happy to stay here and cooperate with Elder Ma Yun."
"Life is only a hundred years long. The most important thing is to have a fulfilled state of mind. Otherwise, no matter how long you live, what's the point? You'll just be a ghost guarding corpses."
I am enjoying myself here and don’t think about living long.
Old Man Jiang's open-mindedness moved several practitioners, especially Ye Fan, who had met too many important figures in the Holy City. In order to prolong their lives, they begged him, Master Yuan Tian, in a humble manner, almost to the point of flattery.
The state of mind of these big shots seems to be even worse than that of an ordinary old man.
"The state of mind is perfect, and you have already attained the Tao." Fairy Zixia whispered, cultivators seek the Tao, exploring the vast heavenly Tao, the Tao is boundless and almost invisible.
When ordinary people ask for the truth, they only want to have a clear conscience. They also have their own path, which is the human way.
Lin Xian studied the law of faith and had his own understanding of the way of heaven and man. He was deeply touched by Mr. Jiang. He found that Mr. Jiang's faith was very pure, with almost no distractions, like a little fire in the darkness, illuminating the whole body.
"Faith, willpower, obsession..." Lin Xian felt that he had encountered a big problem. In the future, he would have to go to Mount Xumi to seek advice from the Emperor of Buddhism so that he could copy his homework well.
Rest for a few days in Yuding Cave, there is no killing and bloodshed, only tranquility and peace. Go deep into the world of mortals, cleanse your heart of Taoism, and gain a new understanding of the world.
Among them, Ye Fan and Zhang Wenchang met again. They had an ordinary relationship on Earth, but after coming to Beidou, they became precious old friends.
The two drank and talked, and cried all night. The saint, who was decisive in killing, showed his true feelings at this moment and missed his parents in his hometown.
Little Nannan wanted to comfort him, but was taken away by Lin Xian to eat spiritual medicine porridge. He pointed at Fairy Zixia who had already taken action, coughed and said, "Children should stay out of adult affairs."
Little Nannan was confused and watched the big sister in purple leave. Then Lin Xian stuffed a bowl of elixir porridge into her. This was made from elixir from the ancient holy land that was thousands or tens of thousands of years old. It was extremely nutritious.
"You have one bowl, I have one bowl, you have one bowl, I have one bowl..."
Lin Xian distributed the food fairly and said with a smile, "Little girl, try my cooking."
"It's such a big bowl, Nannan can't finish it." Little Nannan shook her head and said in a childish voice: "Nannan eats very little, a small bowl is enough."
"That's such a pity." Lin Xian shook her head, poured most of the bowl of elixir porridge into the medicine cauldron in front of her, and then replaced the bowl with an exquisite rabbit-ear bowl for little Nannan.
"Thank you, big brother." Little Nannan blinked her bright eyes and nodded obediently. Then she tasted the elixir porridge and couldn't help sticking out her tongue: "It's a bit bitter."
"It's a bit bitter. Maybe I put too much spiritual medicine in it." Lin Xian took a look at the spiritual medicine porridge with only a dozen grains of rice, pondered for a while, took out a milk can, poured some animal milk into it, and tasted it.
"It tastes delicious!" Little Nannan was very happy, like a porcelain doll, and squinted her eyes.
“As long as it tastes good.” Lin Xian was very confident. This was the recipe of the great beast milk master, Emperor Huang Tian. After he returned to the Zhatian Universe, he took great pains to collect several similar exotic beasts and mixed the mixed milk.
"There are even better ones." Lin Xian listed them all: "Peaches from Shenxu, tea from Immortal Mountain, dragon meat from Taichu Ancient Mine, Dapeng kebabs from Zangtian Island..."
"Yeah." Little Nannan nodded obediently. She is not picky about food and is fine as long as she can eat it.
After refining a bunch of thousand-year-old elixirs and ten-thousand-year-old precious medicines, the little girl was still in high spirits. She caught butterflies and birds in the courtyard to play with them, looking quite like the Emperor Huang Tian.
Lin Xian's whole body was glowing, and lines of Dao patterns appeared in his body like meridians, interweaving and evolving into a formation, like a tiny world turning. His nine orifices merged into one, resonating with his internal organs, closing every inch of his skin to prevent his essence from leaking out.
This was a skill he learned from the Nine Apertures Female Holy Spirit of Yao Chi, which allowed him to be independent of the world, like a small world existing in the vast universe.
If it evolves to its extreme, it can be called a method of immortality. The third life of Emperor Yuhua is closely related to the Holy Spirit Stone Embryo.
Lin Xian learned very quickly. This avenue was very suitable for him because he had nine orifices in the human body, which was a unique advantage that could be used to evolve the human universe and the inner world. With the help of the huge power of medicine, he arranged the inscriptions in his body, allowing the system to transform the nine different ancient Dao rhymes into dazzling runes, which were imprinted on the other side of the secret realm of Lunhai.
The nine levels of heaven on the other side are all different. They connect to the Taoist Palace in Heaven above and the Sea of Bitterness and the Underworld below. Each level of heaven is unique.
The first heaven is infinitely close to the Sea of Bitterness and on the edge of the Fountain of Life. The wheel of life rotates like the six paths and is affected by the energy of life and death. It is called Huangquan Heaven.
The second heaven was opened up with the help of the essence and blood of the Green Emperor. It was imbued with the aura of the Chaos Green Lotus and was full of vitality. All the deathly aura was gone. It was named the Blue Sky.
The third heaven was changed by the Taoism of Queen Mother of the West. It was born at its extreme, with three flowers gathering at the top of the head and five qi returning to the origin. It was named the Five Elements Heaven.
Now he has taken one step further into the Four Extremes Secret Realm and stepped into the Second Heaven. The other side resonates with him and begins the fourth transformation.
This heaven was born out of the ancient aura, with nine great Dao rhymes and inscriptions arrayed on it, as if it had evolved into a small ancient world, named the Ancient Heaven.
This is not the end, just the beginning.
After building the human body world, Lin Xian began to create various images. He did not directly take the holy spring water that he had collected in the ancient holy land, but poured it into the secret realm of Lunhai and stored it.
The divine spring flows down from the heaven on the other side, washes the spring of life, flows through the sea of suffering, like a soaring waterfall, and then rotates through the wheel of life, over and over again, along the divine bridge, rushing back to the ancient heaven.
This is the scenery of Shenqiao Road.
The branch of the elixir tree that little Nannan broke off also evolved into a scene, rooted in the sea of suffering, like a world tree that supported the sky and extended to several layers of heaven on the other side, with an immortal breath flowing.
This is the scenery of the sea of suffering.
His eyes sparkled with fairy light, like a god. He waved his arms, formed a treasure seal, and his hands shone brightly, as if he had explored the end of heaven and earth.
The human body has four poles, which can reach the four poles of heaven and earth, activate the great way of the heavens, and also connect the human body to the universe. The inscriptions of the Dao in the ancient sky shine brightly.
This is the scenery on the other side.
Finally, Lin Xian transplanted the incomplete human-shaped magical medicine into his own life spring, and it became the last Taoist scene.
This is the scenery of Mingquan Road.
The four great Dao scenes resonated together and evolved together in the ancient times. Lin Xian sat cross-legged between heaven and earth, with an ancient aura flowing through his body, mysterious and profound. Wisps of chaotic energy hung down, obscuring his appearance.
If an uninformed ancient creature saw this scene, he would surely be horrified, thinking that this was an ancient king transformed into a human!
He waited quietly, feeling the subtle changes taking place in the human body, like a god looking down on the world, watching the vicissitudes of life and the passage of time, witnessing the sea of suffering turning into a medicinal field and creating the great medicine for the human body.
Amitabha the Great Buddha said: Everyone has Buddha nature, and all living beings can become Buddhas.
Because all living things are equal, life is the greatest miracle in the world, God has no prejudice, regardless of race or bloodline, everyone can produce immortal essence in their body.
No matter whether it is the supreme ancient emperor, the great god king, or the loser on the road to becoming an emperor, it is possible to live a second life.
Even a mortal has a little life essence in his body. The Dark Supreme uses this to survive, bloodbath the universe, take the lives of all living things, and prolong his own life.
The process of sublimating the essence of life into the essence of immortality is practicing, which is to refine medicine, and to refine the great medicine for the human body.
From a certain perspective, everyone is an elixir of immortality, but some people are stunningly brilliant, transforming in the mortal world, and after nine lifetimes, they produce the fruit of immortality.
Some people die prematurely due to malnutrition and blows. Instead of taking root and sprouting, growing into trees, they become seeds again, struggling in the world, waiting for the next opportunity to be born.
This process can be called reincarnation.
As for reincarnation, if you believe in it, it exists; if you don’t, it doesn’t exist.
Because of belief, the obsession with rebirth continues into the next life.
Because of disbelief, faith is extinguished, eternity becomes empty, only oneself is valued, the past is cut off, the future is severed, and naturally there is no such thing as reincarnation.
Lin Xian believes in reincarnation. If you keep thinking about something, there will be a response. Belief is like a seed, turning in reincarnation, and one day it will take root, sprout, and bloom into a similar flower.
The ancient Immortal Kings have already grown from seeds into towering trees, so when they die, they will not reincarnate and become seeds again. Instead, they will transform into plants of immortal elixirs.
Humane cultivators can be reincarnated, let alone the Immortal Kings of the past, who have more chance of survival than ordinary people.
The Qing Emperor is the most obvious example.
When he enters the fairyland one day, these elixirs of immortality may be able to transform him into the peerless fairy king again.
Watching the elixir of immortality turn one from death to rebirth is a great miracle and a method of longevity that will help the emperor live into his next life.
Then what kind of miracle would it be to see the elixir of immortality and transform people into humans?
It conforms to the true meaning of rising from ruin and reviving from extinction!
As time goes by, history books have long recorded that in the ancient times, there was a man named Lin who became an immortal. It is very likely that he took the immortal peach elixir and became an immortal instantly.
The true immortals who are cultivated in this way are called human immortals. They have the lowest combat power. Without a great opportunity, they will never be able to make any further progress in their lifetime.
But if the human immortal evolves in another direction, transforming himself into an immortal elixir of the same status as the Immortal King, and then sublimates from the immortal elixir to become the Immortal King, can he break the shackles?
Lin Xian is looking forward to it very much. He uses his own body as a test field, hoping that his deceased self who became an immortal first can lead the immortals in this life, and finally achieve the goal of becoming immortals together.
"You need to give me some strength in the past!"
Lin Xian shouted in his heart, hoping for a miracle to happen, and tried to borrow the immortal power from the past.
Under the evolution of the four-fold Dao scene, the ancient times reappeared, the human-shaped immortal medicine bathed in the divine spring, sensed the immortal breath of the Nine Wonderful Immortal Branches, began to breathe in and out the essence, and floated in the life spring.
For a moment, Lin Xian felt that he was also an elixir of immortality, floating in the air, becoming one with nature, and absorbing a large amount of the essence of heaven and earth.
And then, it stopped there. The human-shaped elixir did not grow, did not take root, it was nothing, it simply only took in but did not give out, without the rhythm of life.
Alive, but not fully alive.
"Is it because my cultivation is not strong enough, or is it because the Nine Wonderful Immortal Branches are not enough?" Lin Xian pondered for a moment and decided to give it a try with a complete immortal medicine plant in the Sea of Bitterness next time.
Using the human body as an ancient experimental field, although there is no elixir of immortality, it has greatly enhanced his understanding of the great way of nature. He has the illusion of stepping through the four extreme secret realms and rushing into the dragon.
There will be no more bottlenecks for the next three and fourth heavens. All you need to do is to work hard and cultivate to perfection in the four extremes.
"One-ninth of the branches are so powerful, the complete elixir must be able to take off."
Lin Xian felt that he could change his perspective. Since he had not shown his divine power in the past, he might as well take some elixir of immortality first.
There are no true immortals in the world, but there are more than a dozen perfect immortal medicines!
