Chapter 178: The power settings of this book (limited to Immortal Martial, not Heavenly Immortal techniques), as well as Seeing Xiao Yu Yu
The power settings of this book (limited to Immortal Martial, not Heavenly Immortal techniques), as well as Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's current realm and strength.
The five major elements of Immortal Martial: Heart, Spirit, Intent, Qi, and Body.
The realm is primarily determined by "Qi," as Qi is the foundation of the extraordinary.
Based on Qi, the realm is roughly divided into four levels: Body Tempering, Internal Qi, True Qi, and Qi Elixir (Origin Elixir).
Body Tempering needs no further explanation.
The Internal Qi realm involves extracting energy from the body to give birth to internal Qi.
The True Qi realm involves the body forming a grand circulation with heaven and earth, allowing for the absorption of heaven and earth origin Qi.
The Qi Elixir (Origin Elixir) simulates the Jin Dan of the Immortal Dao; the Qi Elixir is the hallmark of a Human Immortal.
Seeing Xiao Yu Yu is in the Internal Qi realm.
It is not the case that the combat power of the Internal Qi realm is necessarily weaker than that of the True Origin realm.
Some possess extraordinary talent and a powerful physique, capable of extracting massive amounts of internal Qi from their bloodline; such individuals find their Internal Qi realm harder to break through, but their strength is not weak.
For example, Seeing Xiao Yu Yu at this moment.
Because Song Changzhi and Physician Min integrated the spiritual essence of the Sword Bone (which can be seen as a form of immortal Qi) into her physique, she is destined to experience a long Internal Qi realm, but her Qi is no less than that of an ordinary True Origin realm martial artist (the reason I set it this way is that I do not want Seeing Xiao Yu Yu to progress too quickly on the path of Immortal Martial; the further one walks on the Immortal Martial path, the narrower the road becomes, and the more bleak the future).
The True Origin realm has another advantage: because one's own Qi forms a grand circulation with the Qi of heaven and earth, one can absorb special Qi from heaven and earth.
For example, the Qi in the sky is "Xuanwu Gangqi," and the Qi underground is Sha Qi.
The Xuanwu Gangqi expert Ge Qing is in the True Origin realm, absorbing strands of Xuanwu Gangqi from the natural wind to refine the Profound Martial True Gang.
This is his talent, and also a major effect of the Great Qin Meng Army's "Profound Martial True Gang" technique.
When Xuanwu Gangqi is integrated into True Origin, the attack power is invincible, and the Xuanwu Gangqi shield is unbreakable.
Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's Blood Sha Qi is also a type of Sha Qi.
She has not reached the True Qi realm; the Sha Qi she can refine is not absorbed from earth veins or earth caves.
She cultivates "Tiger Soul Seven Kills," using the Fierce Tiger Divine Intent to extract Blood Sha Qi from her own bloodline and soul.
There is a plot point in the book where Guan Tianyang learns that Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's Tiger Soul Seven Kills has reached completion, leading to a mental imbalance (Chapter 122); he specifically ran to the Lianghe Beach battlefield to absorb the Blood Sha Qi left behind by a million dead, only then barely refining the sixth level...
Dead people on a battlefield will form a Fierce Sha Earth Cave.
That is to say, Blood Sha Qi is born from humans.
And the reason "Tiger Soul Seven Kills" is so fierce and ominous is precisely because it allows living people to refine Blood Sha Qi.
It is also because Sha Qi is so fierce that it can harm ghosts and gods.
Of course, Seeing Xiao Yu Yu also absorbed more than one strand of Soldier-Fierce Blood Sha Qi from the Investiture of the Gods—her soul incarnation, the Fierce Tiger, sat on the Blood Sea Throne and drank its fill of Sha Qi.
This is her fortuitous encounter.
The Sha Qi in the Investiture of the Gods will affect her absolute rational state of mind; when Sha Qi rushes to the brain, she speaks her inner thoughts directly.
Back to the main topic.
Regarding Qi, Seeing Xiao Yu Yu is in the Internal Qi realm, but she has mastered a type of Sha Qi, and her lethality is immense.
Regarding Heart, it is ordinary; Seeing Xiao Yu Yu has not cultivated a specialized Heart-Refining method.
Regarding Body, it is ordinary, because the Sword Bone is shattered.
Regarding Spirit, it is top-tier, stronger than most Human Immortals of the Immortal Martial path.
Regarding Intent, it is supreme; she has comprehended too many Sword Intents.
Because this is a world of Qi Refining, the realm is measured by "Qi" as the standard.
Under this standard, Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's realm is considered relatively low, only the Internal Qi realm.
If one were to forcibly divide the Internal Qi realm into "early, middle, and late stages," Seeing Xiao Yu Yu is still in the early stage of the Internal Qi realm.
After all, she has only just refined internal Qi for a few months.
But this book will not use "early, middle, and late stages" to measure the level of a martial artist's internal strength.
Early, middle, and late stages can only measure the progress of a martial artist's development of their own physique: early stage 0%–30%, middle stage 30%–60%, late stage 60%–90%, and 90%–100% is considered Great Completion.
The real world is not "clones" (the potential that martial artists can develop is roughly the same).
In the Journey to the West world, the gap in everyone's endowment is very large.
Simply comparing the quantity of internal strength, the late stage of the Internal Strength realm is not necessarily higher than the middle stage of the Internal Strength realm.
For example, Wukong and the ordinary disciples of Bodhi Zhenyuan Zushi; Wukong only practiced for a few years and became a Taiyi True Immortal directly.
Take Seeing Xiao Yu Yu for example; her physique absorbs the spiritual essence of the Sword Bone, belonging to the top tier of talent, but the technique to develop her potential is too trashy.
It's like she has a rich mine with high storage, but the mining method is too mediocre, so it takes more time to finish mining the rich mine.
Wukong's mine has a higher storage, but he has an "Immortal-brand excavator."
Having talked about Qi, let's talk about Divine Intent.
Divine Intent is often linked together, because the "Main Spirit" is used to control the "Sword Intent."
Taking Tiger Soul Seven Kills as an example, first use spirit to simulate a demon tiger; this is the Spirit (the Spirit that dominates the moves), and use the demon tiger Main Spirit to drive the Sword Intent of the "Seven Kills Profound Meaning," which is undoubtedly the most appropriate and has the best effect.
Spirit can also be used alone; for example, Seeing Xiao Yu Yu often uses her "gaze" and momentum to scare people—her Spirit has already turned into a fierce tiger, and facing her gaze is like facing a demon tiger directly.
Now, regarding Intent...
Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's internal strength realm is relatively low, belonging to the early stage of the Internal Strength realm, but her total internal strength is not low, stronger than many True Origin realm martial artists with poor potential.
But it certainly cannot compare to Human Immortal martial artists, especially since she cannot communicate with heaven and earth to form a grand circulation of "Qi," so many powerful moves that consume high energy cannot be used.
For example, the "Quicksand Sword Intent" - Turbid Waves Like Mountains (driving the gravity of the demon script "Mountain") that she created in Fenghou Bay can form high-pressure giant waves that crush river demons within a hundred meters, but one move consumes almost all her internal strength.
If she were in the True Origin realm, she could communicate with heaven and earth origin Qi, which would be much easier and save effort.
The inability of the Internal Strength realm to communicate with heaven and earth is a major disadvantage for her, especially when facing Human Immortals, as she cannot compete in energy waves.
Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's advantage is Divine Intent and moves; Divine Intent determines the exquisiteness and lethality of her moves.
If there were no Divine Intent, the same sword move stimulating sword Qi would have an attack power equal to the lethality of the sword Qi (internal strength).
If Divine Intent is superimposed, the same sword move and the same internal Qi would have an attack power equal to the sword Qi multiplied by the "Sword Intent coefficient," meaning the power is enhanced several times, or even dozens of times.
At Feixian Ferry, when Seeing Xiao Yu Yu and Zhou Lang competed in sword skills, does everyone remember?
Zhou Lang's flying sword had the gravity of a thousand jun; if Seeing Xiao Yu Yu had resisted it with her body, she wouldn't have been able to hold it.
But she used Sword Intent to compete against the Sword Intent on Zhou Lang's flying sword, causing most of the thousand-jun gravity to dissipate; the result was that she was only knocked flying and not completely crushed (of course, she had the Sword Bone at the time, and the Sword Bone bore most of the impact).
Zhou Lang is not Song Zhong; he did not cultivate the Dragon-Subduing and Tiger-Taming divine power and did not have ten thousand jun of giant force. His flying sword had a thousand jun of gravity; one reason was the Human Immortal True Origin blessing, and the other was that he was a Sword Immortal who had also comprehended Sword Intent.
Let's give another very intuitive example:
One person uses pure muscle to swing a sword to chop, cutting off a steel bar as thick as a bowl, using 5000 jin of force (force shouldn't be "jin," but this is just a metaphor for easy understanding).
Another person uses internal strength, also cutting off a steel bar as thick as a bowl, using 1000 jin of force, plus the internal strength of the True Origin realm (internal strength can be treated as gasoline, and the internal strength realm as the maximum output power).
Seeing Xiao Yu Yu only has 500 jin of force, and her internal strength is not at the True Origin realm, but she only used 30 jin of force, plus weak sword Qi (internal strength), superimposed with the Fierce Tiger Divine Intent, and can cut off two steel pipes as thick as a bowl placed together.
Now, let's summarize Heart, Spirit, Intent, Qi, and Body.
Internal Qi is an all-around enhancement for a martial artist: reaction, physique, and strength.
Qi is indeed the foundation of the extraordinary, so the martial artist's realm is measured by "Qi" as the standard.
Divine Intent only increases the exquisiteness and lethality of moves, only targeting specific moves.
Therefore, Seeing Xiao Yu Yu is very crippled at this moment; her attack power is extremely strong, and even a Human Immortal cannot withstand a hit, but she is somewhat fragile.
Let alone Human Immortals, as long as an ordinary True Origin realm martial artist's move lands solidly on her, she will vomit blood if she doesn't die.
In addition, her sword moves are sharp, and Divine Intent is the soul of the moves; moves not only have attacks but also movement techniques, footwork, and even defense.
If Seeing Xiao Yu Yu were to hunt down a True Origin realm martial artist with thick internal strength and exquisite movement techniques, she would definitely suffer a big loss.
They run faster than her and have more stamina.
If facing a completely unfamiliar powerful martial artist, even if Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's sword skills are sharp, as long as she cannot kill the opponent in one hit, the opponent might trade injury for injury and hurt her.
Their health bars are different; her health bar is short, so it's not worth it.
If she had worshipped a foster father in advance, even if the opponent's strength and realm could crush Seeing Xiao Yu Yu, she could find the opponent's vital point in advance and kill them in one hit.
This kind of combat power setting is not quite the same as the absolute realm crushing in general Xianxia.
In general novels, realm almost occupies 80% of combat power.
If your realm is lower than others, there is an 80% chance you will lose.
Hence the result that a Jin Dan must crush Foundation Establishment.
Even if it is the protagonist, it is difficult to cross a major realm—unless the protagonist is at Foundation Establishment Great Completion, and the enemy is only at Jin Dan early stage.
Seeing Xiao Yu Yu killing a Human Immortal is equivalent to a mid-stage Qi Refining killing a Jin Dan Great Completion expert.
It is mainly because the elements that constitute combat power are not just realm.
Divine powers, attribute restraint, and weakness restraint also occupy a very large proportion of combat power.
Realm occupies 25% of combat power, divine powers and magic treasures occupy 25%, attribute (weakness) restraint occupies 25%, and the on-site environment and the state of the parties involved occupy 25% (this is not an accurate value, just for everyone's understanding).
Let's use Seeing Xiao Yu Yu killing a Human Immortal as an example again.
Seeing Xiao Yu Yu killing Kong Zan:
1. Realm weight of 25%; Kong Zan had 20%, she had about 5% (at that time, although Seeing Xiao Yu Yu had no internal strength, her physique under the blessing of the Sword Bone and the Fierce Tiger Divine Intent had a clear advantage, much stronger than Kong Zan).
2. Divine powers and magic treasures: Seeing Xiao Yu Yu took medicine, the Sword Bone was at Great Completion, Kong Zan had the Qi Sect escape technique and had also refined a Yin Spirit, barely a tie, each 12.5%!
3. Weakness: Seeing Xiao Yu Yu won completely; she knew his weakness, he knew nothing about Seeing Xiao Yu Yu, Seeing Xiao Yu Yu occupied 25% alone!
4. State of the parties involved: Seeing Xiao Yu Yu had the intention to kill while the other was unsuspecting; she should occupy at least 20% of the winning rate.
Thus, 5% plus 12.5%, plus 25%, plus 20%, exceeds 50%, Seeing Xiao Yu Yu wins.
Note, note, note!!!!
The comparison of the winning rate weights above is only conducted within the same "species."
Immortal Martial compared with Immortal Martial, Immortal compared with Immortal, Luo Jinxian compared with Luo Jinxian, Saint compared with Saint.
You cannot compare an Immortal Martial artist with a True Immortal.
A True Immortal and an Immortal Martial artist are not in the same cultivation system at all, nor are they the same species.
Your Immortal Martial realm is nothing in front of the Immortal realm, there is no comparison.
And this huge chasm between different systems and "species" is the origin of the Zifu bottleneck.
The gap in hard power is too large; Zifu cannot deduce the method to kill the father, so it got stuck.
If Seeing Xiao Yu Yu does not come into contact with immortal techniques and does not move toward the "Immortal realm" herself, she will never be able to make the "Divine Nun Killing Method" complete.
Finally, let's talk about the Immortal Martial elements other than Heart, Spirit, Intent, Qi, and Body.
Besides Divine Intent, Seeing Xiao Yu Yu also has Fierce Sha Qi.
Sha Qi and Xuanwu Gangqi are also combat power enhancement elements, and at the same time can add special attributes to moves.
For example, ordinary martial artists cannot see ghosts, and swinging a blade cannot hurt "formless and imageless" ghosts.
But if the blade is stained with Sha Qi, it can cut ghosts.
Another example is Ge Qing's Xuanwu Gangqi; if integrated into True Qi and the Xuanwu Gangqi shield is opened, it will be the most powerful body-protection method.
Without Xuanwu Gangqi, simply using True Qi for body protection, ten times the True Qi consumption would not have one-tenth the effect of Xuanwu Gangqi.
It is not that Xuanwu Gangqi is not strong; Xuanwu Gangqi can be as strong as Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's Blood Sha Qi, it is just that the people using them are too weak... and it is not Ge Qing's fault for being weak; if he were weak, he wouldn't have been chosen by the Meng Army.
Last but not least, let's explain Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's future development path.
That is, her cultivation direction.
Let's compare with Harley from the previous book.
Harley is mainly defense, defending against various miracle energy attacks, and counterattacking the enemy on the basis of defense.
Seeing Xiao Yu Yu in this book is completely opposite to Harley; she has two cultivation directions: "sharp attack" and "fast running away."
The method deduced by the Great Father-Destroyer is a method of killing, a method of actively killing the "foster father," so she belongs to the active attack type.
Sharp attack, low own realm, high attack, low defense (actually, among the same realm, Seeing Xiao Yu Yu is not fragile at all) is Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's current state.
And because her sharp attack is mainly aimed at the "foster father," rather than all high-level cultivators in the same realm as the foster father, she must also have a talent for "being able to run away."
First escape the pursuit of high-level cultivators, and then turn back to use the Great Father-Destroyer to turn defeat into victory.
The "being able to run away" here also contains two major elements: running fast and being able to avoid pursuit (avoiding the "cameras" of the God-Demon world—the Divine Dao monitoring system and the Yishu divination system).
And the Primordial World with the Journey to the West background has the Three Realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man, and has Gods, Immortals, Buddhas, Demons, and Ghosts.
So Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's two major skills—sharp active attack and being able to run away—must be aimed at the ghosts, gods, immortals, and Buddhas of the Three Realms.
Her realm may not be as good as others, but her attack can hurt gods, can hurt immortals, can hurt Buddhas, can hurt ghosts, can hurt demons... as long as she creates an opportunity to stab them with a sword, they will be seriously injured, or even die, rather than them standing still and her being unable to cut them.
Being able to run away means: in the water, she can escape the pursuit of gods, immortals, Buddhas, and demons; flying in the sky, she flies faster than gods, immortals, demons, and Buddhas; in the underworld, she is more adapted to the ghost path than ghosts and gods, and escapes faster.
If it were someone else, it would really be impossible to do, but she is the daughter of Kunpeng, and the Primordial Law represented by Kunpeng is water and wind.
Having initially achieved the above conditions, Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's mission in the novice village (Tianmen Town) is basically completed, and she can completely leave, wander the world, and to a certain extent be carefree and at ease.
When Seeing Xiao Yu Yu leaves Tianmen Town, the ghosts and gods of the Underworld want to hunt her down but cannot catch up; if they catch up, they are ambushed and killed by her (Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's realm is not as good as theirs, but she has sharp attacks and can hurt ghosts and gods).
Human Immortals will also hunt her down but cannot catch up, and are killed by her during the pursuit.
Heavenly gods (Heavenly Soldiers and Generals) will track her, can catch up, but can be killed by her; she can also hide her tracks and restrain her aura, making the gods of the Heavenly Palace unable to find her.
Therefore, after the second volume "Tianmen Town Wind and Clouds" ends, the third volume is called "Clear Breeze Ten Thousand Miles Leaves No Trace, I Am Ma Xiaoyao Between Heaven and Earth."
The Taiji Golden Book, Fenghou Bay, the little strong with the dog treasure, and the subsequent plot of the Qiaoshan Ghost Kingdom are all letting Seeing Xiao Yu Yu perfect her two major skills: "attack" and "run away."
Some readers might ask, why not give Seeing Xiao Yu Yu the full volume of the "Taiji Golden Book" directly and let her cultivate immortality directly? Is it deliberately suppressing the protagonist's realm?
I can tell everyone this: in the setting of this book, it is impossible for anyone to learn to become an immortal by themselves with a secret manual.
In the setting of this book, achieving immortality is similar to winning a Nobel Prize in physics, chemistry, or medicine in the real world.
In reality, can someone be all alone, with just a textbook, and win a Nobel Prize?
To win a Nobel Prize, a full set of textbooks is just the most basic condition; after finishing the basic courses, getting an offer, finding a Nobel-level doctoral supervisor (master), following him to do his research project, finishing the postdoctoral studies, then mastering a laboratory yourself, researching the most cutting-edge technology (listening to the preaching of great gods like the Three Pure Ones, preaching the current Dao, not the ancient Dao), researching a project yourself, and achieving extraordinary achievements, and finally getting the recommendation and lobbying of mentors and friends (big shots of the Three Realms), you win the Nobel Prize (become an immortal).
Many settings in this book are referenced from the real world on the basis of the original works of "Journey to the West" and "Investiture of the Gods."
Then let Seeing Xiao Yu Yu break the shackles and restrictions placed on individuals in reality one by one.
Just like Guan Chenghuang and the Jade Emperor.
Some readers say I have a suspicion of whitewashing Guan Chenghuang, because Guan Chenghuang seems to be a qualified good City God in his daily behavior, except for the matter of Seeing Xiao Yu Yu and Song Changzhi.
Some readers say the Jade Emperor is very old-fashioned, not dark enough, not cool enough...
Please look at the big shots in reality and see what their posture is when they are in front of people.
Those big shots who collapsed or went in to step on the sewing machine, who could have thought of or seen the things they did before?
In the "Ma Baba" stage, does everyone know their ugly side? (Extra note, I have never called anyone "x Baba," I only have one father).
If the bad things they did were exposed from the beginning, they would have gone in to step on the sewing machine long ago.
Only street punks would write "I am fierce, don't provoke me" directly on their faces.
Only gangsters would do bad things every day.
Big shots who can collapse have at least been glorious and great for a long time, otherwise they wouldn't be worthy of collapsing—if you don't build a house, how can the house collapse?
Big shots who can enter to step on the sewing machine must be very shrewd, capable, and have outstanding achievements; if you can't do things and don't make achievements, how can you climb to a high position, and if you don't climb to a high position, how can you have the opportunity to "test cadres"?
Guan Chenghuang can sit firmly in the position of City God, which shows that in matters not involving his core interests, he not only didn't make mistakes but did very, very well.
The Jade Emperor can become the Jade Emperor, and not someone else, must be because the Jade Emperor possesses abilities that others do not, and this ability can convince most gods... at least in Journey to the West, even the Buddha obeys the Jade Emperor (extra note, the Three Realms Tribulation Expert is not a mockery; everyone will know the huge benefits of experiencing tribulations later, as well as how terrifying the Jade Emperor's true strength is).
Just being honest and obedient cannot make you the Jade Emperor.
Being a second or third generation, you can say you were born well, relying on the shade of your father and grandfather; being a first generation, you must have real skills.
The Jade Emperor and Guan Chenghuang are "first generation."
There are more "first generation" in the Primordial World who have been eliminated in the long river of history.
I've gone too far; not letting Seeing Xiao Yu Yu get the "Taiji Golden Book" and then cultivate immortality directly is not deliberately suppressing the protagonist.
It is that in this book, it is impossible to step into the immortal path with an outdated technique.
The author is not targeting the protagonist Seeing Xiao Yu Yu, but the entire cultivation world.
The author is not deliberately targeting the cultivation world either; this book uses "Journey to the West" as the background, and it is like that in Journey to the West.
Even those side paths like "Art, Flow, Still, Move" that cannot become immortals must first find the Slanting Moon Three Stars Cave and worship Bodhi Zhenyuan Zushi as a teacher to learn. You pick up a secret manual and can become an immortal?
The world is always in a state of change.
Immortal techniques are the simulation and embodiment of world rules.
Since the world is changing and the rules are changing, immortal techniques are of course changing every moment.
The "Heavenly Immortal Orthodox Method" is an immortal technique that is always evolving (changing).
Seeing Xiao Yu Yu will witness various cultivation routes in this world, among which there is even the "Mortal Cultivation" that everyone is most used to—that's right, this book actually also has "Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Jin Dan, Nascent Soul," and even the operation mode of the cultivation world is the law of the jungle, which is completely different from what Seeing Xiao Yu Yu is encountering now.
The world Seeing Xiao Yu Yu is in now is dominated by the Human Sect.
"Mortal Cultivation" is the world of the Jie Sect.
The Primordial World has the "Human Sect" of Taiqing and Yuanshi Tianzun (Chan Sect actually belongs to the "Human Sect," Yuanshi Tianzun and Laozi are on the same path), and also the Chan Sect of Tongtian Jiaozhu.
There is Ancient Buddhism, and there is also the current Lingshan Buddhism.
Each sect has its own philosophy.
When this sect becomes the leader of the world, undoubtedly, the philosophy of the sect will also become the operating law of the world.
Why does the world Seeing Xiao Yu Yu is in now talk about "reason," why is it not the law of the jungle, where if you are strong, you can kill whoever you want? Why is there a judgment system, a supervision system, and rewarding good and punishing evil?
Actually, the essence of the world is still "the strong are respected."
The will of the strong is the rule of the world.
It's just that the strongest in the world at this time is the Human Sect, the Human Sect is the boss, and the Primordial World operates according to the rules of the Human Sect.
The "Human Sect" of Taishang Laojun and Yuanshi Tianzun wants to build a world with orderly good and evil, so the Heavenly Dao operates like this, and the Heavenly Law is formulated like this.
Just like reality, why does reality have this kind of social system?
Because the class that is in charge is so-and-so, and this system comes from the will of the so-and-so class.
If you shout "Internationale" in the US, of course you will be hit by an iron fist and suppressed.
In the Primordial World dominated by the Human Sect, you still clamor why I can't kill whoever I want, Taishang Laojun asks back: Since that's the case, why can't I slap you to death?
Also because the world rules are like this, Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's golden finger is the "Father-Killing" attribute.
Zifu is not targeting a specific living foster father.
And because her golden finger is the Father-Killing attribute, how could she obey the orthodox path arranged by "God"—the Jin Dan Great Dao?
She will not walk the cultivation path of the Jin Dan Great Dao.
Some readers now think that the skills and sword moves that are useless are her foundation, and she won't spend a lot of space learning them, and tomorrow she will meet some immortal master, get an immortal technique, and immediately abandon all the previous "low-class martial arts" and switch to cultivating immortal techniques.
It won't be like that.
Everything Seeing Xiao Yu Yu is experiencing now, everything she is learning, will become the resources for her future transcendence.
One person, one secret manual, one mountain, can never become an immortal.
One person, one mountain, following an immortal to learn, can also never become an immortal.
Cultivating immortality is the intersection of life and nature; "nature" is spirit, which needs to be tempered.
Seeing Xiao Yu Yu will definitely be able to "transcend" in the end; in every novel of mine, the protagonist must transcend.
Even in the low-martial and low-magic world of "Dragon Mom," Dragon Mom transcended, became a big shot, and even greeted Harley.
The protagonist of this book is in the God-Demon world, and must transcend even more.
Transcendence is equivalent to surpassing the Saints.
So everyone doesn't need to worry about what Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's future achievements will be without the Jin Dan Great Dao.
Seeing Xiao Yu Yu will complete transcendence on the basis of complying with the power settings of this book and not violating basic logic.
Last but not least, let's summarize Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's realm again.
She is only in the Internal Strength realm, and only her attack is sharp.
The current Pure Yang Sword Qi can cut gods, but to kill gods, you must hit the target.
Judging whether Seeing Xiao Yu Yu can kill someone is also very simple: first, if Seeing Xiao Yu Yu hits the opponent, can she kill them; second, can Seeing Xiao Yu Yu hit the opponent (if she worshipped a foster father and found the weakness, she could easily stab the vital point; if it is a stranger, it depends on whether the stranger's stunt is restrained by Seeing Xiao Yu Yu).
By the way, vital points and attribute restraint are not Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's patent.
Others can also be like her, killing across levels, or being killed across levels by others.
For example, Wukong, whose realm and strength were far beyond the Scorpion Demon, ended up having his skull almost melted by the poison of the horse-stabbing pile.
So Seeing Xiao Yu Yu can sneak attack Human Immortals, and will also be sneak-attacked by Song Changzhi, who is not as good as a Human Immortal.
Seeing Xiao Yu Yu is only in the Internal Qi realm; if she is slashed by a Human Immortal, and it lands solidly, she will definitely die.
Let alone Human Immortals, if she doesn't dodge or fight back, and lets an ordinary person slash with an ordinary iron sword, she will also die.
Immortal Martial five major elements, Heart, Spirit, Intent, Qi, Body, her strength is only Divine Intent.
If she cultivated a body-tempering technique and refined an immortal body, and the "Body" reached the limit, even gods couldn't cut her.
If she cultivated a high-level internal Qi technique like Aunt Liu's "Hunyuan Wuliang," and the "Qi" reached the limit, she could also bounce off the weapons of Human Immortals.
Immortal Martial five major elements, every element reaching the extreme is invincible, and can even kill immortals.
Conversely, if any one of the five major elements does not reach the extreme, one can be found to have weaknesses.
But please rest assured, Seeing Xiao Yu Yu will not have short boards.
She cultivates so many sword intents, isn't the original purpose to feed the Sword Bone with sword intent and finally recast the supreme... Sword Bone?
The Sword Bone is recast, and the "Body" is basically enough.
"Qi" also doesn't need to worry; her current internal strength secret manual is also constantly deducing and constantly evolving.
"Heart" will be supplemented in the subsequent plot and finally become her strength.
When the five elements of Immortal Martial are complete, it will be time to leave the novice village and wander the world of gods, Buddhas, demons, and ghosts.
Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's situation is finished; I will explain the plot that has appeared recently, which is the Heavenly Court and the Jade Emperor.
First of all, I don't reject the conspiracy theory of Journey to the West; I follow several up-hosts on Bilibili who talk about "Black Journey to the West," and I listen to almost every issue, and it's very satisfying.
Well, it is a dark analysis of Journey to the West, not Black Wukong.
But just like I love watching "Young and Dangerous," it doesn't mean I want to be a gangster; I listen to the dark analysis of Journey to the West, but this book does not intend to adopt the settings of Black Myth or dark Journey to the West.
For example, regarding longevity.
In my setting, becoming an immortal means longevity; there is no need to use things like flat peaches or immortal pills to manipulate gods (but flat peaches and ginseng fruits are also very important; they have another magical effect more important than longevity, which I will focus on introducing in the subsequent Duan Yuhan plot).
Becoming an immortal, not wanting to fight for power and profit, not being stained with cause and effect, can also be as carefree and worry-free as the gods in our traditional impression.
I don't adopt the dark Journey to the West setting, not because I want to write the Heavenly Court and the gods as bright and great.
I mean, the attributes of the world are diverse, everyone has a choice, and so does every god.
You can stay away from power and choose to lie flat (invite two or three old friends, travel to the North Sea in the morning and Cangwu in the evening), as long as you are frustrated enough and don't have high exploitation value, the big shots are too lazy to pay attention to (plan) you, letting you establish a golden signboard of "carefree and desireless" for gods, attracting more mortals to cultivate immortality.
You can also choose power and choose a life of fighting and planning.
Cultivating immortality in this book is not about cutting off emotions and desires—in fact, Taoism has never asked people to cut off emotions and righteousness; cultivating the Dao is seeking the true self.
If you enter the vortex of power, of course there are conspiracies and tricks, and a "reality" that is darker and more cruel than the dark Journey to the West.
Look at the current Jade Emperor; in dealing with Seeing Xiao Yu Yu, he basically follows the rules and has a bit of an emperor's tolerance.
But if it involves his core interests, look at what kind of face he has.
Actually, we mortals are the same; we who are calm on weekdays and we who are in a rage are almost two different people.
We cannot be in a rage all the time, nor will we always be calculating conspiracies.
Conspirators also have daily lives.
The Jade Emperor also has daily work.
By the way, I looked at the comment section yesterday, and a reader questioned why the Heavenly Court let small people like Ge Qing become "immortals," while being extra harsh on the righteous Seeing Xiao Yu Yu.
This question involves a setting about the Heavenly Court and immortals.
In this book, it is not the setting of "it is not easy to cultivate into an immortal, ascend to the Heavenly Court, but only be the most ordinary Heavenly Soldier."
The Heavenly Court is like the imperial court in ancient times.
Immortals who ascend normally are not small soldiers, but successful candidates in the imperial examination.
The nobility of "successful candidates," I don't need to waste my breath.
If Seeing Xiao Yu Yu becomes a virtuous female immortal by the name of "righteousness," it is similar to the ancient filial piety and integrity entering the court, also noble in status and with a bright future.
Heavenly Soldiers and Generals like Ge Qing and Zhu Tong are ordinary soldiers recruited by the imperial court, they are big-headed soldiers.
The human imperial court selects strong and brave people from the people to be compiled into the army.
The Heavenly Court selects the souls of fierce generals from the people to be compiled into the Heavenly Court army.
Can the conditions for the imperial court to select soldiers be the same as the standards for selecting successful candidates and filial piety?
Many generals in the ancient imperial court were basically newborns, killing the good to claim credit, slaughtering cities, and having no morality.
After the Heavenly Court Star Lord descended to the mortal world, let alone killing people, eating people was a routine operation.
So, if there is a person who is truly morally perfect and capable, what will be the ending when they arrive in this book? They are not a god, nor an immortal, but a Saint!
If the Heavenly Court chooses ascending gods by the standard of choosing "Saints," the Heavenly Court will be empty, and even the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother will have to get out.
Therefore, the selection of gods in this book basically follows "clean files, employing people according to their talents, and professional matching."
It's a bit like modern job hunting, not seeking perfection, because there is no perfect person in the world.
Of course, the "political review" for gods to apply for jobs will be stricter.
For example, Seeing Xiao Yu Yu.
At first, it was just examining Yin merit, and she wasn't asked to be a virtuous female immortal yet, so a talisman envoy was sent to the mortal world to monitor her every word and action.
The reason the talisman envoy intervened in Seeing Xiao Yu Yu killing Ge Qing was not that the Heavenly Law did not allow killing.
If the item the talisman envoy was examining was Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's filial piety, he wouldn't have paid attention to the assassination incident in Baxia Hutong at all.
If Zhu Tong and others hadn't shown the brotherly righteousness of not abandoning each other at the last moment, the talisman envoy wouldn't have paid attention to the vendetta of mortals—he had been watching from the side for a long time, why did he only stop it at the end?
The reason the talisman envoy descended to intervene was that the armored warrior used his own life to block Seeing Xiao Yu Yu, creating an opportunity for his companions to escape.
This obviously couldn't be a disguise.
If you don't even want your life, how can you disguise it?
Zhu Tong also didn't want to escape because his companions died miserably; he completely collapsed.
And the talisman envoy descending to the mortal world happened to be examining Seeing Xiao Yu Yu's "righteousness."
This caused a problem; the test paper being examined had the wrong answer.
Even so, the Heavenly Emperor wouldn't send someone to hit her with a golden melon hammer.
At most, the examination failed, and the opportunity to ascend to immortality in one step was missed.
The Heavenly Emperor arranging for Zhu Tong and Ge Qing to descend to the mortal world was for another matter: Seeing Xiao Yu Yu spoke wildly and slandered God (God, Heavenly Emperor, Haotian, Jade Emperor, are all names of the Jade Emperor; everyone can search for the full name of the Jade Emperor, it is very long with dozens of words.)
Zhu Tong and Ge Qing are not purely good people, but the Heavenly Court didn't let them be gods either; they were just small soldiers.
Their righteousness and martial power met the conditions for being small soldiers.
This is not me talking nonsense either.
Why did Guan Erye run to Zhuojun to sell mung beans?
It was because he killed someone and had to run away.
Zhu Tong and Ge Qing certainly cannot compare with Guan Erye.
But Guan Erye becoming a Saint was not because he was benevolent, kind, filial, clean, and perfect in every way.
Just righteousness and not failing in major principles is enough.
Guan Erye can become a Saint by righteousness; Zhu Tong and Ge Qing becoming the lowest-level big-headed soldiers by righteousness and martial power is no problem, right?
Wang Lingguan will also appear later.
Before Wang Lingguan was subdued by Sa Shoujian, he was much more of a scoundrel than Zhu Tong and Ge Qing, but he was still canonized as a god by the Heavenly Court.
Everyone must not treat the Heavenly Court as a "concentration camp for perfect good people."
Just like everyone cannot naturally treat "officials" as "officials who are like biological parents."
The imperial court in the real world certainly promotes justice, fairness, integrity, and etiquette.
The Heavenly Court also promotes rewarding good and punishing evil, and loving all living things.
But if everyone in the world reached the moral level promoted by the imperial court and the Heavenly Court and became Saints, the imperial court and the Heavenly Court would lose the necessity of existence.
If the Heavenly Court and the imperial court selected officials by the standard of the Saints they promoted, the Heavenly Court and the imperial court would be empty.
Being able to reach the limit in a certain moral examination is already very rare. **Chapter 179**
