Chapter 26: Immortal Methods, Strange Arts, Wu Gong, Miraculous Powers

"The superior state of Nanzhan Zhonghua is in the distant East, tens of thousands of miles away from Western Shu. I haven't been there yet, and I don't know much about the situation there.

Just speaking of the Western vassal states, you might see many Daoist temples, but they are not Dao Palaces.

There are only Daoists in Daoist temples, but there are immortals in Dao Palaces. True immortals can even be recorded in the heavenly register, can enter and exit the Lingxiao Precious Hall above the nine heavens, and have the opportunity to worship the Jade Emperor."

General Guan Huchen gently stroked the long beard on his chest, his majestic square face full of envy and longing.

"Of course, immortals are not the only standard that distinguishes Dao Palaces from human Daoist temples; Dao Palaces are generally built in blessed lands.

Blessed lands are located in the Three Realms, but not in the human world, not in the heavens, and not in the underworld.

Therefore, some people also call the Three Realms 'Upper Realm, Middle Realm, Lower Realm,' the Upper Realm is naturally the Heavenly Palace, and the Lower Realm is the human world.

This Middle Realm is the blessed land where gods and immortals enter and exit.

The most famous blessed lands are Zhang Kunlun and Penglai; it is said that all those who live there are immortals.

In addition to immortals and blessed lands, Dao Palaces also have clearly defined Daoist ancestor inheritances.

That is to say, their masters or patriarchs clearly come from the lineage of the Three Pure Daoist Ancestors.

It doesn't mean that if you were lucky enough to hear a few sentences of Daoist methods outside the door of the Three Pure Daoist Ancestors, you are considered a disciple of the Daoist Ancestors.

To obtain true transmission, the Daoist Ancestor must nod and acknowledge you as a disciple, and acknowledge your sect as their inheritance.

And the Daoist temples in the mortal world have Daoists who also recite the 'Huangting Daoist Scripture,' and their clothing, appearance, and customs are almost the same as those of the Dao Palace Daoists, but their circumstances are completely different."

Speaking of this, General Guan Huchen sighed deeply, "Hearing this, you must have understood how rare immortal fate is.

Others' Dao Palaces are built directly in the Middle Realm, and they are not in the same world as mortals.

Dao Palace disciples who walk in the Lower Realm all year round, like the little Daoist boy Daoist Qingsong, are just the most ordinary boys in the Dao Palace.

Those boys are ordered to go out, how can they preach and teach, and save people to become immortals?

They have no ability, and even less qualification.

Being able to meet a little Daoist boy Daoist Qingsong in the Great Thousand World is already extremely difficult, and the vast majority of people will never have the opportunity to meet them in their lifetime, let alone others."

Seeing Xiao Yu Yu also sighed deeply.

She thought that the sand dunes were barbaric, so it was difficult to see immortal fate.

She didn't expect that the whole world was like this.

Like in immortal cultivation novels, opening the mountain gate directly, recruiting disciples on a large scale, and only testing spiritual roots without other requirements... in this world, it seems completely non-existent.

"The immortal path is difficult, and immortal fate is difficult to meet, what about strange human arts?" Seeing Xiao Yu Yu asked.

"Strange human arts are in the human world, and you might even encounter them on the street corner of the village."

General Guan Huchen thought for a while and gave an example, "In the early years, the Lu Kingdom had a sensational 'Evil Case of Creating Livestock' in the Western vassal states. An alien named 'Meat Seller Li Qing' used strange arts to turn living people into cattle and sheep, and sold them to demon kings in deep mountains and great marshes.

Meat seller Zhang Qing belongs to the strange people, and the evil arts he used are relatively low-level strange arts.

This type of strange art is also called 'Demon Law.'

Evil laws are easy to break, but immortal arts are difficult to resist."

After speaking, General Guan Huchen glanced at Seeing Xiao Yu Yu, who was listening intently, and said, "Do you know the ending of Meat Seller Li Qing?"

"Since it has been exposed and has become a sensational case in the West, Zhang Qing should have been beheaded by some expert, right?" Seeing Xiao Yu Yu said.

General Guan Huchen's expression was strange, "The Lu Kingdom once had ten human immortals who shocked the West, one of whom was a human immortal, 'Flag-Hunting Immortal Kong Zan,' who was good at the Flag Gate Escape Method.

After exploring the general location of Li Qing, Kong Zan inserted large flags at several necessary passages. Li Qing didn't know the reason and didn't notice it at all. As soon as he entered, his head was cut off.

The Flag Gate Escape is also a strange art, obviously much higher than the art of creating livestock."

"But strange arts are left-handed paths, and one cannot obtain immortality, right?" Seeing Xiao Yu Yu said.

General Guan Huchen was very surprised. Is this innate wisdom?

Before the age of thirty, he had always been unable to distinguish between immortal methods and strange arts, often treating the fantasy stories circulating in the city as immortals playing in the world, and treating the strange arts of the "immortals" as immortal arts.

Even his great-grandfather, who was the City God of the Prefecture, personally told him the common sense and allusions of the true cultivation world, but he listened in a daze, until the Old Zhenyuan Zushi General Guan gave him a head-on blow: Immortal methods can lead to immortality, but strange arts hinder immortality.

Only then did he gradually understand the essential difference between strange arts and immortal methods.

"Strange arts are indeed left-handed paths, but it doesn't mean that practicing strange arts will definitely not lead to immortality.

Strange people can practice strange arts, and immortals can also.

Later, I will explain the immortal martial cultivation methods in detail, and pass on the 'Tiger Soul Seven Kills' to you. You will probably be able to infer other things and understand the connection and difference between strange arts and immortal methods."

After a pause, General Guan Huchen said again, "Strange arts are almost finished, you just need to understand the general idea.

Now let's talk about immortal martial cultivation methods.

Immortal fate is difficult to meet, and the immortal path is extremely difficult.

It doesn't mean that if you are introduced to the Dao Palace and given a complete immortal cultivation method, you will definitely become an immortal.

In fact, the vast majority of ordinary people have no wisdom roots and no immortal bones, and they cannot even get started with immortal methods.

Just like the same classics, some people can read a thousand lines at a glance, never forget, and pass the top graduate exam; some people are classmates with the top graduate, with the same classics and teachers, but even reading and writing are difficult."

"Top graduate?" Seeing Xiao Yu Yu was surprised. Is Nanzhan Zhonghua still in the Qin Dynasty? Are there already top graduates?

General Guan Huchen didn't explain, only said, "After entering the pass and returning to Luodu or Yingxiang Mansion, I will invite a Nanzhan Zhonghua master for you... if you really can't find a Nanzhan Zhonghua person, you must also hire a Black-Toothed Kingdom great scholar.

In short, there will be teachers to teach you Central Plains culture, as well as basic common sense and etiquette."

Seeing Xiao Yu Yu was even more shocked and suspicious. What is General Guan General Guan Huchen doing?

Not only did he pose to give her the General Guan family's divine martial arts manual, but he also wanted to invite a great scholar to teach her knowledge.

Even ordinary great scholars were not looked down upon; he wanted a Nanzhan Zhonghua literary master, and if there was no Nanzhan Zhonghua person, he had to invite a Black-Toothed... What kind of country is the Black-Toothed Kingdom? Why can Black-Toothed great scholars be compared with Nanzhan Zhonghua masters?

The investment is so huge, the return he sees in her must be even greater. Where does the "great" come from?

General Guan Huchen didn't have such complicated thoughts as she did, and sighed, "People have wisdom and stupidity, and positions have nobility and lowliness.

What is rarer than immortal fate is the talent and wisdom of immortal cultivation.

What is more important than talent and wisdom is fate.

Even if you have immortal bones and innate wisdom, if your fate is not good enough and you cannot overcome the heavy disasters, you still cannot become an immortal.

Those who have become immortals have already landed on the heavenly register, but what about those who haven't?

This world ultimately has many losers and few successful people.

If immortals have the idea of saving the world, they can accept disciples and pass on methods.

Those who haven't become immortals are also humans, and they also need inheritance, marrying and having children for family inheritance, and opening doors to accept disciples for sect inheritance.

What is inherited is the original immortal martial cultivation method.

Those who failed to become immortals became ancestors of immortal martial sects, because they had not tasted the realm and mystery of true immortals, the immortal martial arts they created must not be as authentic as the immortal methods passed down by true immortals or even Daoist ancestors.

And because immortal methods cannot be practiced without great opportunity, they were deleted and modified, and then there were immortal martial secret books.

Even immortal martial secret books require extremely strong talent.

After all, those who have not finished the immortal path are just failures among immortals, but in the mortal world, they are still 'immortals.'

The immortal martial cultivation methods left by 'halfway immortals,' later generations have insufficient talent and cannot practice them, so they continue to delete and modify them, or only practice a part, and the super-class immortal martial secret books become sub-super-class divine skills.

This is how it decays generation after generation, until now, even the son of a servant like Zhang Lai can practice martial arts records."

Seeing Xiao Yu Yu realized.

The modern world is a material world, the first productive force is technology, and the second and third productive forces are systems and culture.

This world has gods, immortals, and Buddhas, and the first productive force is immortal cultivation, and technology may not be in the top five of the productive force ranking.

No matter which world it is, if civilization wants to progress, it will concentrate its strength and prioritize the development of the first productive force.

In the modern world, students go to school to study technology and culture.

In the world of gods and Buddhas, students go to school to study "immortal power."

In the modern world, the high school entrance examination is divided, and the college entrance examination is divided.

High-quality high school students go to high school, and poor students go to technical schools.

From high school to university, it needs to be subdivided. Those with ability go to study the foundation of the first productive force—theoretical science.

Those with slightly weaker ability consider how to improve productivity—transforming the latest scientific theories into technology to improve the "level of technology."

Those with even weaker ability study how to specifically practice the first productive force—high-level technical workers.

Those who are worse off go to toss about the second-rate productive forces, such as systems and culture.

Those who are worse off study how to make those who study the first, second, and third productive forces comfortable—service and management.

Operating in this mode, technology and society will inevitably move forward steadily in a linear mode.

Of course, it is possible to violate the above laws, walk the relationship of human feelings, and disrupt the selection system based on ability and wisdom.

Let fools engage in scientific research... uh, ability is insufficient, the door can't even be entered, but fools can be allowed to lead scientific research teams, and even stupider people can be allowed to be system formulators and maintainers.

Letting idiots handle scientific research... uh, they lack the ability and can't even get through the door, but you can let idiots lead the research team, and even let even bigger idiots become the ones who formulate and maintain the rules.

If one day, the gears of reincarnation break, and the reincarnation of the dynasty cannot continue, it is just changing a race to rebuild civilization, the world will certainly not be destroyed, and if all people die, the earth will still turn.

The prehistoric world with immortals and Buddhas is also prioritizing the development of the first productive force, and the development mode is basically not much different from the above, except that the first productive force has changed.

The operation of society still revolves around the first productive force.

The most elite talents practice immortal cultivation, those with slightly worse ability study strange arts and immortal martial arts, and those with the weakest endowments serve as part of the "spirit of all things," becoming a drop of colored ink that draws the colorful human world... that is, honestly being a mortal.

Immortals are more shrewd, they shouldn't fall into the restart and reincarnation... right?

Seeing Xiao Yu Yu thought so in her heart, but she vaguely felt that the world of gods and Buddhas would not be purely simple.

Is it possible that the human race has been the protagonist of the prehistoric world since the opening of the world?

Before the human race, were there other races that collapsed, broke the gears of reincarnation, and could not continue to reincarnate, changing the new protagonist of the world to build a new civilization?

After the human race, were there other races that took the top spot and became the new protagonist of the world?

"Finally, there is innate miraculous power."

General Guan Huchen let her think quietly for a while, digest the previous content, and then spoke again, "The Dao is born from nothingness, and Qi is the total source of all Qi."

He picked up his pen and wrote "Qi" and "Qi" on the paper.

"I understand that this statement of mine is wrong, but for us mortals, we can simply understand that everything in the world is composed of Qi, everything with form, everything without form, is 'Qi,' and everything has 'Qi.'

'Qi Refiner' is the name that directly indicates the essence of immortal cultivation.

Immortal cultivation refines 'Immortal Qi,' 'Immortal Qi' exists in famous mountains and rivers, blessed lands, and can be absorbed by cultivators, and it is also possible to integrate into the human body.

Cultivators cultivate Immortal Qi, become immortals, and can drive Immortal Qi to perform great miraculous powers.

If a certain kind of Immortal Qi does not need human postnatal absorption, but directly integrates into the human bloodline congenitally, even if you don't cultivate immortality, as long as you awaken that 'Qi' in your bloodline, you can also perform great miraculous powers like a god.

This is the origin of innate miraculous power.

Innate Qi differentiates into thousands of kinds of Qi, different 'Qi' have different 'spiritual opportunities,' and the miraculous powers awakened by different spiritual opportunities are also different."

Hearing him say this, Seeing Xiao Yu Yu subconsciously looked at General Guan Huchen's pitch-black eyes, which were as bright as stars.

General Guan Huchen nodded gently, "That's right, my Immortal Eye is a great miraculous power of the pupil technique."

Seeing Xiao Yu Yu asked, "If the root of the Immortal Eye is 'Heavenly Eye Spiritual Opportunity,' which is a kind of Qi, then can all immortals absorb Immortal Qi and practice this miraculous power?"

General Guan Huchen laughed proudly, "If that were really the case, miraculous power wouldn't be worth much. In fact, let alone this kind of miraculous power that must be innate, most immortals cannot practice many great miraculous powers that can be practiced postnatally.

Pangu opened the world, clear Qi floated up to become heaven, and turbid Qi sank down to become earth.

Everything in the world is evolved from turbid Qi, but there is a lot of soil on the earth, little gold, and spiritual minerals for forging divine weapons and magic treasures are even rarer.

Innate Qi turns into thousands of kinds of Qi, and of course, it is impossible for every kind of Qi to be the same.

Some Qi is as much as soil, and some Qi is as rare as gems.

'Miraculous Power Spiritual Opportunity' is an extremely rare 'Immortal Qi,' so it is called 'Spiritual Opportunity'." ===== CHAPTER 27 =====

"The 'Divine Ability Spiritual Mechanism' is an extremely rare 'Immortal Qi,' which is why it is called a 'Spiritual Mechanism.'"
