Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 5: Dacheng
Brush!
As the light of the knife passed by and blood flowed, Tang Jie's body leaned forward violently. He rolled on the platform, leaving only one left calf lying quietly on the stone under the platform. on the steps.
Without one leg and his body being exhausted, Tang Jie couldn't even stand up. Lying on the ground, he laughed.
Coming up!
I finally came up!
Looking up at the sky, Tang Jie kept laughing. The laughter became louder and louder, gradually echoing in the sky, and the entire Shuiyue Cave was filled with his voice.
The group of farmhouse disciples looked at Tang Jie dumbfounded, and Zhao Hui and a few others even murmured: "Crazy, really crazy!"
In order to get on the platform, they even cut off their own legs. This is the first time in the Xiyue Sect's nearly two thousand years of history that this has happened.
Tang Jie smiled for a moment and finally sat up.
He put his hands on the ground, climbed to the side of the broken leg, and picked it up. After losing its body, the broken leg became like a stone on the ground or a weed in the field, no longer affected by the big formation. Influence. From this point of view, if you don't consider life issues, cutting yourself into pieces and throwing them to the top of the mountain and putting them back together again is a good way to go up the mountain.
Picking up the broken leg, Tang Jie put it together with the wound. With his current state, as long as he could find the broken leg, he could easily reconnect it.
But the premise is that he has enough vitality. His body is now extremely exhausted. Even sitting up and picking up his broken leg is a miraculous performance. If you expect such a body to be able to reconnect broken limbs, then It's completely impossible.
Fortunately, Tang Jie had his own way.
He turned around and shouted to Zhao Hui and others: "Can you do me a favor?"
"What...what?" asked a disciple from the farm hall.
"Get me some sticks."
This is simple. Although it is not a deserved reward, it is not valuable in itself, and it is not a violation to take it.
Someone picked up a pile of sticks and boards for him.
The farm hall disciples were not allowed to step onto the stone steps. Everything could only be thrown to Tang Jie, so Tang Jie could only do the next thing.
Tang Jie just gritted his teeth and used his trembling hands to fix the broken leg with wooden boards and ropes, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked back at the farm disciples and said, "Thank you very much."
Those people quickly said it didn’t matter.
Tang Jie smiled and said, "Can you give me my reward?"
The farm disciple then realized: "Oh, oh, okay, what do you want? I'll get it right now!"
"Xue Zhi." Tang Jie said.
Snow Zhi, like Ginseng Essence, is both life-giving and tonic, and is most suitable for use in a state of consciousness refining.
Obviously, Tang Jie wanted to take advantage of this period of physical depletion to replenish himself and attack enlightenment.
As for the leg, he didn't seem to have thought about it at all.
The disciples from the farm hall had already taken the order and hurried away. Fortunately, they had guessed that Tang Jie might want Xuezhi, so they had already found a good Xuezhi for him, and they took it directly and gave it to him. Tang Jie.
1800-year-old ginseng essence, 1800-year-old Xuezhi, and 1800-year-old Nanmasuko. Although the quantity is not large, the quality is astonishingly high. These three spiritual herbs alone are as good as countless spiritual medicines from outside, not to mention that Tang Jie also brought other medicines, including a Jade Returning Pearl from the Nine Jue Immortal Killing Formation - in these ten years, the body has Most of the spiritual materials he obtained were used by himself, and a small part was sold to Qijue Sect and Xiyue Sect. This is the first time that this Jade Returning Pearl has been used by the clone because it is the most suitable for the clone's current needs. This item alone is of extraordinary value. No wonder Lord Xuan Yue was shocked when he saw it.
However, this product is only nourishing but not life-threatening. It may even cause anger and burns the body, so it cannot be used alone. It must be supplemented with life-threatening drugs such as ginseng essence and other life-threatening drugs. Since the ginseng essence was not old enough and the medicinal power was far inferior to that of Jade Return Pearl, Tang Jie was forced to go to the 200th floor to get Xuezhi.
After all, Jade Returns Pearl is not a poison in nature, it just has some minor side effects. Although it has ten thousand years of medicinal power, two eighteen hundred-year-old elixirs are enough to deal with it.
Promoting on the fly is the norm in Shuiyue Cave. Without such ability, it is impossible to reach the top of the mountain. Therefore, the Xiyue Sect does not prevent everyone from bringing their own medicines. It is just that promotion is difficult. The further you go, the less likely you are to rely on medicines. It can be solved.
But other things may not be solved by medicine, but refining consciousness is definitely not among them.
The depleted body needs nutrition. As long as it is good, the more the better.
At this moment, Tang Jie took out all the materials he carried and stuffed them into his mouth.
The power of the medicine turned into a trickle of spiritual fluid and seeped into Tang Jie's body and mind, filling his dry body bit by bit. The power of the medicine penetrated into every corner and every cell of his body. Tang Jie almost groaned in comfort.
But Tang Jie knew that this was not a moment to enjoy.
Seizing this opportunity, the best strategy is to attack and open up knowledge.
The next moment he held his breath and concentrated, and began the process of condensing his consciousness into the sea of consciousness.
During the period of consciousness refining, consciousness is already condensed and filled everywhere in the body. It just disperses but does not gather, and fails to form a sea of consciousness.
At this moment, with Tang Jie's full attention, consciousness began to withdraw from all parts of his body.
This is a wonderful feeling.
The consciousness of others is a vague feeling. Just like when your hand is injured, you can feel the location of the pain, but it is difficult for you to describe its specific description and characteristics.
But when the consciousness is condensed, everything becomes different.
It is like a pair of invisible eyes, using spiritual energy as a carrier, traveling up and down the body, able to see every position of oneself clearly.
This is somewhat similar to inner vision, but inner vision is a spell and only has a temporary effect, while the concentration of consciousness is an essential change. When this step is reached, consciousness will form spiritual consciousness!
At this time, you can say that the consciousness has changed from virtual to real, or you can say that it is the seventh consciousness beyond the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind.
No matter how you explain it, it all means the same thing, that is, ideas have become substantial existences that can feel the outside world and can also be perceived by the outside world.
This is spiritual consciousness!
As Tang Jie withdrew all his consciousness and concentrated it in the direction of the predetermined sea of consciousness, his exhausted body completely lost its support.
Tang Jie fell down directly.
Fortunately, the power of the medicine has begun to take effect, and the replacement consciousness continues to support Tang Jie.
Tang Jie was lying on the platform, as if he was dead.
At this time, he was completely unable to move, and the only thing he could command was his consciousness.
These thoughts wandered through the body, exited from every corner of the body, and finally gathered into a group, forming a vast white mist-like existence.
This is the sea of consciousness.
Condensed knowledge becomes the sea!
The process of enlightenment is the process of condensing consciousness and gathering it into a sea.
Tang Jie, who had already entered the consciousness refining state, easily skipped the first step and went directly to the second step.
Condensing the sea of consciousness was originally an extremely troublesome process, but after Tang Jie experienced everything, it became so simple and easy.
I saw wisps of clouds rising one after another. It was his consciousness that relied on spiritual energy to turn into spiritual consciousness and condense into a sea of consciousness.
Generally speaking, the sea of consciousness has the sight of steaming clouds and mist, and if it condenses but does not disperse, it is considered a success.
And Tang Jie has reached this point, in other words, he has succeeded now.
As the sea of consciousness is generated, spiritual consciousness can also be formally used and can truly play a role. Just like the eyes feel light and the nose feels smell, its function is to feel spiritual energy.
People without enlightenment feel spiritual energy just like ordinary people feel air. Although they know its existence and master its utilization, it is difficult to go deeper.
Opening awareness is like having a microscope, allowing you to observe and feel at a closer distance.
So Tang Jie felt an unprecedented strange feeling, feeling as if he was in the sea. Around him, there was an ocean of spiritual energy everywhere.
There are a lot of debris mixed in these spiritual energy seas, which are useless ingredients to him.
He had never felt it before.
Now he can feel it, and can even actively choose and avoid it.
In other words, he can now absorb the spiritual energy more purely!
Not only that, in the future practice, Tang Jie will be able to detect all changes more keenly through spiritual consciousness, so that he can avoid detours and improve his cultivation faster.
This is the first important significance of enlightenment, which is conducive to cultivation.
This is also a crucial link on the road to success in the future.
The practice of a practitioner before enlightenment is like a blind person walking on the road. He can only feel the existence of the road, but never see it. After enlightenment, the blind man finally opens his eyes.
However, Tang Jie obviously had no intention of stopping. The sea of consciousness was still churning, condensing, and flourishing, bringing out a unique atmosphere.
So everyone saw that there was a trace of white gas coming out of Tang Jie's body.
Spiritual consciousness is released!
This is a sign that enlightenment has reached a certain level.
The steaming white energy on Tang Jie's body is his spiritual consciousness, waving in the spiritual energy like tentacles, getting deeper and longer.
Some of the Nongtang disciples have already enlightened themselves and know that the length of the white mist represents the maximum range that spiritual consciousness can feel. Spiritual consciousness is not spiritual thought, it cannot exist apart from the body, and the scope of its influence is also limited. The larger the range, the wider the area it can sense and influence, the stronger the aura it can control, the greater the power of its spells, and the wider the area it affects.
This is why the power and effect of spells of open-level spiritual masters are obviously stronger than those of ninth-level spiritual masters.
At this moment, the white mist on Tang Jie's body kept extending outwards, getting longer and longer. It seemed that it had no intention of stopping, but it shocked the onlookers of the farmhouse disciples.
"Ten meters...fifteen meters...already twenty meters..." someone whispered.
The extension of spiritual consciousness also has its own limit. Generally speaking, the length that ordinary cultivators can reach is about ten to twelve meters, and only the more outstanding disciples can reach fifteen meters.
Because the disciples of the six major sects are selected from a wide range of talents, they are generally above fifteen meters. A few elites can reach eighteen meters. Twenty meters is already regarded as the standard for talented people.
For this reason, when Tang Jie's spiritual consciousness reaches twenty meters, it means that he has stepped into the standard of genius of Xiyue Sect.
Don’t underestimate the gap of a few meters.
Since spiritual consciousness extends outward from the center of the body, the range of spiritual energy it can affect will increase significantly for every meter it extends.
This can be calculated using the area formula of a circle.
When extending ten meters with itself as the center, the aura range that can be affected is 314 square meters.
When extending fifteen meters with itself as the center, the aura range that can be affected is 706 square meters.
When extending twenty meters with itself as the center, the aura range that can be affected is 1256 square meters.
It can be seen from the above figures that when the distance increases by a quarter, the actual increased control area nearly doubles!
If you convert it into actual combat power, the gap is even greater!
But Tang Jie obviously didn't intend to stop there.
He continues to work hard.
Although the white mist that is still extending has grown slower, it is still advancing unswervingly, swaying its own brilliance in the wind.
Twenty-one meters...twenty-one and a half meters...twenty-two meters...
Moving forward slowly and steadily.
"Twenty-two and a half meters!" Someone shouted.
A large number of farm disciples gathered around the stone steps, constantly making gestures in order to more accurately confirm the length of their spiritual consciousness.
Everyone was excited. Twenty-two and a half meters was already an extremely astonishing figure, but it had not yet broken the Moon Washing Sect's highest record.
The current highest record of Xiyue is 26.47 meters in spiritual consciousness. The record holder is none other than the current leader of Xiyue, Master Lingxiao.
"Twenty-three meters!"
The white mist of spiritual consciousness rose again, and some disciples from the farm hall shouted.
"Brother Hui, how are you?" someone asked Zhao Hui.
Zhao Hui replied: "Tianzong's talent has been ranked among the top 100 of the Xiyue Sect for thousands of years."
Spiritual awareness is still growing.
Soon it rose another half meter.
Zhao Hui said: "First fifty!"
Twenty-four meters!
Zhao Hui: "The first thirty."
Twenty-four and a half meters.
"Top twenty!"
Zhao Hui's voice was already trembling: "Continue, half a meter further, there is one of the top ten geniuses of the Xiyue Sect in the past and present!"
Everyone looked at Tang Jie nervously.
The advancement of spiritual consciousness seems to have come to an end, just like Tang Jie working hard to climb a mountain, not rising for a long time, but refusing to fall back, still stubbornly pushing on, growing bit by bit, bit by bit, It seems to be constantly squeezing itself, like a weed, bubbling hard with its head exposed.
So everyone saw that the spiritual consciousness continued to grow at a slow pace without giving up.
Finally!
"Twenty-five meters!" someone shouted.
"Awesome!" Zhao Hui punched the palm of his hand, and everyone cheered, happy for Tang Jie and happy for the Xiyue Sect to produce another genius.
However, the shouting stopped spontaneously soon. For fear of disturbing Tang Jie, everyone held their breath and continued to look at Tang Jie.
As expected, Tang Jie was like an immortal little strongman, with spiritual consciousness like a snake. He continued to twist unwillingly for a while, and then began to shrink back.
Everyone sighed at the same time.
Tang Jie finally stopped within the top ten, still one meter away from the Master of Lingxiao.
"It should be about 25.4 meters, around seventh or eighth." A disciple answered.
"No matter where it is, it won't be tenth anyway." Someone said.
"But it squeezed Uncle Xiao out."
The crowd burst into laughter.
This uncle Xiao naturally refers to Xiao Biehan.
Xiao Biehan is not a genius. He relied on **** battles all the way to the end. Back then, he fought **** battles and had countless adventures, so that he could train his spiritual consciousness to the point where he could reach 25 meters and 12 meters. , worthy of entering the top ten.
For this reason, Zhao Huicai said that if you reach 25 meters, you will basically be included in the top ten.
Now that he is in the top ten, the sword master of the Xiyue Sect has been squeezed out of the rankings, but it is really interesting.
At this moment, Tang Jie's spiritual consciousness has reached the end and can no longer be extended, which means that this is his limit.
The distance of twenty-five meters means that with him as the center, all the auras within the surrounding twenty-five meters are affected by it and can be controlled by it. Although it cannot achieve the effect of using arms and fingers, No matter in terms of consumption, power, range, speed or other aspects, there has been a huge improvement.
After reaching this point, he did not stop there, but continued to improve himself.
Those white auras did not disappear, but continued to sway in the wind, actually emitting strands of brilliance that were difficult to see clearly with the naked eye.
Zhao Hui and others were completely speechless when they saw this scene.
Spiritual sensing!
If condensing consciousness is the preparation before awakening, condensing the ocean of consciousness is the official awakening, and releasing spiritual consciousness is the manifestation of mature consciousness, which can be regarded as the middle stage, then the current sensing of spiritual consciousness can be regarded as enlightenment. in the later stages.
The meaning of spiritual consciousness sensing is very simple. If condensing consciousness into the sea means having the ability to observe the spiritual world, spreading spiritual consciousness outward means having the ability to influence the spiritual world (this influence is like picking up a stone from the ground Generally elementary), then sensing is the ability to transmit one's thoughts to the aura world.
When this approach is taken to the extreme, it is spiritual thought and supernatural power. With just one thought, all things come into being.
Of course, it is far behind now, but at least it can greatly reduce the spell casting fingerprints and increase the spell casting speed.
These are the three major changes brought about by the three steps of enlightenment, and they are also a huge improvement in strength.
But these three steps were completed by Tang Jie in one impact, which shocked all the farm hall disciples.
Even the Master of Lingxiao back then could not enter the country so quickly and miraculously, right?
Finally Tang Jie didn't even take this step.
After the spiritual consciousness maintained its existence for a while, it finally fully retracted into Tang Jie's body.
Tang Jie took a long breath, sat up with a look of reluctance, and said to himself: "It's a pity that in the end, he failed to reach the peak."
These words almost prevented the onlookers from falling over. Isn’t that enough?
From condensing the sea of consciousness to sensing spiritual consciousness, this one-hour change requires ten years of hard work!
Ten years in one step, if you make this much progress, what else can you ask for?
Even Zhao Hui couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Junior brother has a big heart, no wonder he can achieve this, I admire him!"
Tang Jie shook his head: "You just don't know what I paid."
Yes, they didn't know Tang Jie's efforts for this.
For this enlightenment, Tang Jie could be said to have risked his life to make it perfect.
The second time of refining his consciousness exhausted his body to the limit, allowing him to use the power of medicine and the rich spiritual energy around him to improve himself. At the same time, it also allowed him to enter another state - to overcome all difficulties!
When the body is extremely depleted, it is in a state of dying, as if starving to death. In addition, Tang Jie had broken a leg and suffered from hunger and injuries. He was on the verge of death. Otherwise, it would not be said that he risked his life to gamble on this shop.
In this case, the effect of the All-Difficult Tribulation Technique finally came into play. While keeping him alive, it also greatly stimulated his potential.
With the increased potential and abundant medicinal power, Tang Jie was able to achieve a great increase in spiritual consciousness. Otherwise, how could he have reached such a level with the qualifications of this clone alone.
If others knew that this person who had entered the list of the top ten talents of the Xiyue Sect over the past thousand years was actually just a clone, they would be shocked and their teeth would fall out.
Finally, and most importantly, Tang Jie used the method of cause and effect for his entry into the Water Moon Cave.
He did not increase the success rate of his enlightenment through the method of cause and effect, because there was no way to do it.
There is a cause before there is an effect.
Since it is impossible to sow the cause of the inevitable success of enlightenment, naturally it is also impossible to bear the fruit of the inevitable success of enlightenment.
But he can improve the results of maximizing efficiency~IndoMTL.com~maximizing potential after enlightenment.
So the essence and blood of the white tiger is the cause, collecting elixirs is the cause, refining the mind and body is the cause, overcoming all difficulties is the cause, and even breaking a leg with a knife is the cause!
He gave one cause after another, and what he wanted was the result of enlightenment.
So he succeeded.
Behind this miraculous success are all kinds of hard work and efforts that those people could never imagine!
——————————
PS: It was a mistake yesterday to say that Tang Jie only experienced consciousness training twice in total. It should have been three times. I remembered it wrong. I am correcting it here. Sorry!
In addition, if anyone doesn’t understand some of the questions, I’ll explain them here.
As for the Way of Wisdom, Tang Jie is not Shen Yi. In this book, the role of the Way of Wisdom is not to be used in actual combat, but to learn other ways. It is a stepping stone to learning Tao. Because of the wisdom path, it would be much easier for Tang Jie to understand other paths.
