Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 6: Hero Channel

On this day, Tang Jie did not continue to climb the peak, but rested on the 200-meter platform.

His broken leg is still recovering. Tang Jie has used healing spells on the injured area. Although he is not good at this and the spell effect is very low, with his current level of cultivation, he can heal the injured area immediately after breaking his leg. With connection, full recovery can be achieved in a day at most.

Taking this opportunity, Tang Jie just adapted to and became familiar with the new realm.

It turned out faster than he expected.

Because Tang Jie condensed the sea of ​​consciousness, he could already distinguish the attributes of spiritual energy.

Aura originally has no attributes, but during the process of change, it will be affected by surroundings and gradually generate its own characteristics, which are reflected in the spiritual tide as different flame colors and shapes. This is also the reason why spells have various flame effects when cast. .

Tang Jie practiced the Shaohai Cave Golden Technique, and the Nine-turn Master practiced the Heart Fire lineage. The spiritual energy was beneficial to metal and fire but not to water and wood, and the latter was the key to recovery. Therefore, although he also learned some treatments It is a similar spell, but its effect is much weaker. Under normal circumstances, Tang Jie basically does not use it.

But after opening his consciousness, Tang Jie was able to identify spiritual energy. Spiritual consciousness is like a tentacle, which can control spiritual energy within a certain range. Tang Jie found that as long as he consciously controlled the water and wood spiritual energy on the injured area, the recovery speed would be much faster.

Although it is still far behind those disciples who are really good at water and wood spiritual energy, it is still a huge improvement.

The good thing about this result is that it only took one night to recover Tang Jie's injuries.

When Zhao Hui and the others arrived, they were even more amazed when they saw Tang Jie in such a condition.

In fact, a person's potential can also be seen from the use of spiritual consciousness. Tang Jie was able to recover overnight, and he had just advanced to the next level, which shows that his ability to control spiritual consciousness is also extraordinary.

Zhao Hui bowed his hands towards Tang Jie: "Congratulations, junior brother, your injuries are over."

Tang Jie said with a smile: "This is also thanks to the care of the brothers in the farm hall. The medicinal materials provided are all the best. Tang Jie is deeply impressed by this."

Zhao Hui said: "In the end, it is you..."

He was about to say a few more polite words when he suddenly paused, looked at Tang Jie in disbelief, pointed at him, trembled, and said: "You..."

"What's wrong with me?" Tang Jie was stunned by him.

Zhao Hui took a deep breath, pointed at Tang Jie and said, "You have grown a white hair."

You have grown a gray hair.

Just these ordinary words set off an astonishing wave in the crowd.

The discussion suddenly started, and the sound suddenly resounded through the sky.

Only Tang Jie remained indifferent, with a smile on his face.

After a while, Zhao Hui shouted: "That's enough, why don't you congratulate Junior Brother Tang!"

The noise stopped then.

All the disciples looked at Tang Jie and suddenly said in unison: "Congratulations, junior brother, for your early birth and entering the Three Withering Tribulations!"

Three withering tribulations!

Yes, when the white hair grows on Tang Jie's head, it represents the arrival of the Three Withering Tribulations.

The three types of dryness include dryness of the body, dryness of Qi, and dryness of blood.

It is an inevitable phenomenon after a cultivator has achieved enlightenment. When the three tribulations of withering come, the cultivator of enlightenment will inevitably enter the state of three withers, losing blood and vitality, and his strength is greatly reduced. Therefore, he is also a cultivator of enlightenment. trough period.

The reason why this is so is because after the practitioner attains enlightenment, he completes the sublimation of body, mind, and mind, basically bids farewell to the mortal body, and transforms into the spiritual body.

The three withering tribulations are the final death process of the mortal body.

Only by allowing all mortal parts of the body to die, except for consciousness, can a cultivator be considered a true spiritual being.

This is called transcendence in the true sense.

At that time, the spirit body will be a truly immortal body to mortal means, an existence that cannot be killed no matter how many weapons and armor.

For this reason, the so-called three withering tribulations are actually the catastrophes when cultivators are reborn from the fire.

For every cultivator, the Three Withering Tribulations are an existence that they both love and hate.

Because of the three withering tribulations, their strength will be greatly reduced, their energy will be depleted and their bodies will be weak, and they will not be as good as those in the ninth rotation. But the Three Withering Tribulations are the only way for them to escape from the mortal world. Without this period of weakness and trough, they are destined to have no future glory.

So at this critical moment, every cultivator will try his best to shorten the three dry periods, reduce going out as much as possible, and look for elixirs to enhance himself.

The process of the Three Withers Tribulation is the process of the death of the mortal body and the perfection of the spiritual body. Therefore, the better the external environment, the faster it will pass through the Three Withers and the stronger the spiritual body will be shaped - there is nothing better than Shuiyuedongtian. A suitable place to spend the drought.

This is why Tang Jie fought to the death to achieve enlightenment. According to his original plan, he was to attack the enlightenment until it was achieved, enter the Three Withered States, and use all his strength to escape from the mortal body in the remaining time. Spiritual body.

Yesterday, he did not enter the three dry states after successfully enlightening himself, so he said that he had failed in his efforts. Unexpectedly, he officially entered the three dry states in just one day.

Of course this is due to the fact that he is very close to him, but it is also due to the fact that the spiritual energy of Shuiyuedongtian is boiling, which greatly improves the cultivation efficiency.

That's why everyone congratulates him. In fact, this is indeed the best time to enter the three droughts.

"Thank you all, senior brothers." Tang Jie hurriedly handed over his hands in thanks.

Zhao Hui said: "Junior brother can enter the Three Withers in Shuiyue Cave, which is really a great joy. However, everything has advantages and disadvantages. After the Three Withers, junior brother's Qi and body are weak, and his strength does not increase but decreases. Originally, junior brother succeeded in attacking the enlightenment. It’s not a big problem to get to the top of the mountain with this advancement, but now it’s hard to say. I really don’t know whether it’s a blessing or a curse.”

Tang Jie said calmly: "This is nothing. I have just entered the third dry period, and my energy and blood are beginning to lose. I am far from the weakest point, but my overall strength has increased greatly than before."

"But we can't make any further progress." Zhao Hui said.

Yes, the biggest problem for Tang Jie at this time is that he can no longer improve.

Based on Tang Jie's current progress, even if he couldn't reach the top of the mountain, he would probably be able to reach six to seven hundred meters. As long as he continued to practice the rest of the way, a hundred days would be enough for him to make up for the gap and reach the top of the mountain.

After entering the Sanku, although his strength declined to a limited extent due to the new Sanku, the channel for improving his strength was cut off. Because his current situation is that the higher his realm rises, the more his strength will drop.

Unless Tang Jie can overcome the Three Withering Tribulations in one breath, reach the pinnacle of transcendence and regain all his strength, then it will be easy for him to go up the mountain.

If Jade Returns Pearl still exists, this will not be a problem.

As for now, when the medicinal materials are exhausted, it is really a dream to survive the three dry tribulations just by relying on the rich spiritual energy of Shuiyue Cave.

"In this case, let's go as high as we can first." Tang Jie said calmly: "Climb the peak of Shuiyue, look at the ink of the predecessors, refer to the ancient and modern methods, and understand the way of heaven and earth."

As he said that, he walked towards the peak step by step, walking leisurely, no longer as difficult as before.

Zhao Hui watched him walk up the mountain step by step, murmuring what Tang Jie said: "Climb the peak of Shuiyue, look at the ink of the predecessors, study the ancient and modern methods, and understand the way of heaven and earth." Finally, he came to an understanding. Zhao Hui bowed deeply to Tang Jie: "Thank you for your advice, junior brother. We will climb the mountain and do our best and obey fate. When we fight, we fight hard, and when we give up, we give up. Junior brother is as brave as a tiger when he is brave, he does not hesitate to fight, and when he is free and easy, he does not care about success or failure. , If we advance and retreat like this, nothing in the world can stop our junior brother from getting promoted!"

As he said that, he bowed to Tang Jie to the end.

When it’s time to fight, fight hard, and fight for the path to immortality; when it’s time to let go, let it go, and follow God’s will.

This is the way of cultivation and dealing with things that Zhao Hui learned from Tang Jie.

At this moment, with a bow, Zhao Hui actually emitted brilliance, like the sun hanging high in the sky, shining brightly.

The disciples of Zhongnongtang saw it and said at the same time: "Congratulations to Senior Brother Zhao, for understanding the Dao and Dharma, and cultivating the Zhaori Tian Xin Gong!"

Zhao Hui burst out laughing.

He has been practicing the Zhaori Tianxin Kung Fu for many years, but he has been stuck on the last threshold and is unable to make any progress. Unexpectedly, he has gained some understanding today, which actually allowed him to let go of his mind and achieve the magical skill. Since then, his strength has improved, his cultivation level has increased, and he has I am overjoyed.

On Shuiyue Peak.

Tang Jie was still walking towards the peak step by step.

The 888-meter mountain peak has more than 5,000 steps. Tang Jie didn't know which step he could reach, and he didn't care.

At this moment, he has completely put away his expectations of climbing to the peak, and is just walking slowly with his hands behind his hands, just like traveling in the mountains and rivers, taking a leisurely stroll. Everywhere he looks, there are beautiful mountains and rivers in this cave. view.

In fact, if you observe carefully, you will find that the scenery in Shuiyue Cave is extremely beautiful.

The rich spiritual mist is extremely changeable, changing into strange colors on this land, reflecting a variety of beautiful scenery. However, the people who come here only want to climb the peak, and they ignore the things on the way. view.

At this time, Tang Jie felt completely empty.

He walked along like this, admiring the beautiful mountain scenery, stopping and walking, and soon reached the platform four hundred meters away.

The disciples in the farm hall casually gave him a magical elixir, and he continued on his way.

Starting from here, you can vaguely see the jagged writings on the mountain wall, which are the cultivation experiences left by some ancestors. Of course, there are also calligraphy treasures from someone's visit here.

But it’s okay not to read the experiences of people who can only reach this high level.

Tang Jie continued to walk upward.

Five hundred meters is the Hero's Platform. In the past, this height was a barrier for many people, because to get to this point, you have to go up at least half a level. For Tang Jie, it was just a leisurely stroll.

He soon stood on the 500-meter hero stage.

Different from the previous platform, there is a huge mountain wall erected on this platform of five hundred heroes. It is as smooth as a mirror and is covered with writings. They are all left by people who were lucky enough to be here. Looking at it, there are at least several Hundreds of people have inscribed their names here.

On the corner of the mirror wall, Tang Jie saw Ming Yekong's name, which read: "In the 142nd year of Tianshu, I entered the Water Moon Cave, climbed the hero's platform, and understood Master Zhenyan's inner teachings. Mingxi sword, I hereby commemorate it for posterity."

Then there was a dense row of small characters, writing his understanding of Mingxi Yijian.

This bright rhinoceros sword is exactly the ultimate sword intention that he sealed in the recommendation order that day. Unexpectedly, he realized it here.

Of course Tang Jie watched the sword come out and felt the extreme meaning of the sword, but he didn't know where it came from. He felt it but was unable to use it. Now that he saw the inscription, he was naturally greatly informed. He read it line by line. Finally, I have some understanding of this Mingxi sword.

Although he was using a sword, this method was useless to him, but the principles are similar, and I think it would also play a big role in his understanding of the art of swords in the future.

After seeing Ming Yekong's thoughts, Tang Jie went to find the Master Zhenyan he mentioned. As expected, this person was also a well-known figure of the Xiyue Sect. What he left behind was about condensation and The ultimate understanding.

It was here that Tang Jie realized that there are many kinds of ultimate expressions. The ones used by Master Zhenyan and Ming Yekong were just part of them. There were countless experiences engraved on the mirror wall. There are many different views on the ultimate meaning.

Tang Jie was fascinated by what he saw, and he could often find answers to many things that he didn't understand at first.

Sometimes more than one answer can be found.

This is an open platform, and everyone who comes here can write their thoughts on it, and sometimes there are even mutual support and confrontation.

For example, there is a debate in the lower left corner of the mirror wall, and the debaters are some of the most famous figures in the Moon Washing Sect today.

First, Xiao Biehan wrote a paragraph on the Tao of War, believing that since soldiers are in the Tao, they should be made by nature. There must be a true magic weapon in the world, commanding all the soldiers in the world.

Then someone picked up from below.

"What Junior Brother Bie Han said is slightly different. Soldiers have no knowledge, and the importance lies in the master. How can there be such a thing as a born king... Li Xuanyue."

But it was True Lord Xuanyue.

Then several more cultivators answered the conversation, some supporting Xiao Biehan and some supporting Li Xuanyue.

In the end, it was Master Lingxiao who ended the debate:

"The soldiers are killing, and the people are the masters of the killing. The soldiers are the leaders, and kings are hard to find. Life and death in the world end in the hearts of the people...Ling Xiao."

After these words were spoken, the debate ceased.

However, there are still different opinions on the art of war.

At that moment, looking at the words on the mirror wall, Tang Jie suddenly felt something in his heart.

He took out his golden short blade and looked at it. Suddenly, he had an inexplicable feeling and murmured: "The soldiers are... Tiancheng."

The golden short blade showed no reaction.

After thinking about it, Tang Jie shook his head, smiled, and put the golden blade back.

Then he continued to read the inscription on the mirror wall.

The contents of these inscriptions are numerous and varied, including insights, insights, discussions, and specific exercises.

If there are many auspicious signs, just understanding is not enough, but also requires on-the-spot testing.

Fortunately, Tang Jie learned the method of distracting and calming the mind.

This method of distraction and concentration is somewhat similar to the twelve secret whirlpools in the Jiuli Heart Sutra. They are both secret techniques that use multiple spells at the same time. The difference is that the twelve secret whirlpools follow the meridian route, which is like creating two roads in the human body. The two spells pass through the two roads at the same time, so there will be no collision.

The method of distraction and concentration inherits the strong characteristics of Xiyue Sect's mind, which directly divides the mind, which is somewhat similar to the ability of left and right fighting, making the mind double and perform two methods at the same time. This is why it requires The spells themselves cannot conflict, but at the same time they are not as complicated and troublesome as the Twelve Secret Whirlpools, and are more flexible and easy to use.

These two methods each have their own merits. Tang Jie knows both, and when used together, they feel that they have endless magical effects.

From that day on, Tang Jie stopped at the 500-meter Hero Platform, looking up at the inscriptions on the mirror wall every day, learning from his ancestors' thoughts and understanding their predecessors' magic.

He can read Liu Yumeng's exposition of the Nourishing Soul Sutra and at the same time operate Zheng Qingyan's Wuji Sword Technique.

You can also use Master Hongyu's Shuanglong Water Dividing Technique when meditating, and when lying still, it can be transformed into Yuyang Zhenren's Mirror High Hanging Technique.

Sometimes he would read the inscription on the mirror wall aloud, each word sonorous, which was the Four Nine Mantras. While chanting, he would not forget to step on the chaotic wind and move with awe-inspiring aura.

Sometimes he would swing the heartbreaking knife randomly on the stone platform, sometimes harshly, sometimes sharply, sometimes soothingly, sometimes smoothly.

That is to integrate the understanding of the sword's meaning from countless predecessors on the mirror wall into this sword.

There are too many insights on this mirror wall. Even if Tang Jie has the distraction and concentration method and the twelve secret whirlpools, it will be difficult to understand all the insights one by one, verify all the discussions one by one, and learn all the secret techniques one by one.

So in the end he can only choose what is important and learn it, and be good at it and use it.

This allowed him to make rapid progress during this period.

Despite this, Tang Jie always felt that this progress was extremely limited, as if something was hindering him, making it difficult for him to make a breakthrough, preventing him from entering a higher level.

This higher level has nothing to do with realm, only his understanding of magic and Tao.

That is the ultimate!

What he pursues is the same ultimate sword intent as Ming Yekong's sword intent. Compared with Ming Yekong's sword, all the spells are dim.

It's a pity that no matter how hard he tried~IndoMTL.com~ he couldn't make such a slash.

Today he is still working **** the high platform.

The heart-breaking knife swept through the wind and clouds, cutting out a vast expanse of sky.

In terms of majestic momentum, today's sword is many times bigger than it was before Tang Jie reached the peak.

However, it was still far from the ultimate sword intention envisioned by Tang Jie.

Tang Jie put away his knife, stared at the sky and said to himself: "What else is missing?"

"Maybe I just lacked the heart to go back and forth." A voice sounded behind Tang Jie.

PS: The calculation of the influence range of aura should indeed be based on volume. I only write down the area because this is just an example, which is meaningless and confusing. Of course, the more essential reason is that I am not good at mathematics and have completely forgotten the spherical calculation formula. I can only briefly explain the significance of radius extension.
