Chapter 875: The Way to Achieve the Tao
Chapter 875 - Fighting for the Way to Become Dao Xixi
If the involution among casual cultivators is between individuals, then the involution between sect forces is not only the competition among their internal disciples, but also the involution competition among many sect forces.
"The benefits offered by a certain sect when recruiting disciples are better than ours, so we don't recruit as many disciples from the Taoist Academy this year, and our talents are not as good as theirs."
"XX of our sect is very talented. Leader, you need to give him more resources to cultivate him. Otherwise, although the so-and-so of the sect next door is not as qualified as XX, but with the hard work of the sect next door, he seems to be able to surpass XX. trend.”
"Now everyone is cultivating disciples at all costs. If we don't train them, then there will be a gap not only in strength but also in number between our disciples and our former opponents. When we wait for the future, our generation will grow old. , the sect will fall!”
"."
Once the trend of involution is set off, it is difficult to abandon it, especially since it is related to one's own interests, and the future of one's own sect is intermittent, which is even more difficult to contain.
The two originally hostile sects have almost the same strength accumulation, but if one side is desperately cultivating and recruiting disciples, can the other side really sit idly by and watch the other side develop?
This is simply impossible!
Unless they are willing to let their sect decline, they must keep up no matter what, and continue to be entangled in it.
This is true for all sects, or in other words, when a sect force does this, except for those sects with true immortals, all other forces have no choice, either actively or passively participate in it. .
And even the sects with true immortals in charge will not sit idly by and take the initiative. After all, they have more advantages than other sect forces.
The new continent of the Ming Dynasty was completely formed about thirty years ago, and in these short thirty years, countless powerful forces gathered on that continent and began to compete for resources.
In this new continent called Nanzhou, various forces join forces and fight, each using their own methods, whether it is conspiracy or conspiracy, all in order to obtain more resources. .
But just ten years ago, a new news suddenly spread throughout the world, causing the world to tremble. Countless powerful people were shocked, and it overshadowed the limelight of Nanzhou New World.
In ancient times, the prototype of the human heaven left by the co-lord of the human race was born, and a top-level spiritual cave that surpassed the previous top power was born.
Moreover, when this top-level spiritual cave was born, Zhu Houcong, the leader of the Ming Dynasty, actually took the opportunity to seize the recognition of this top-level spiritual cave, which made many people angry.
Although the co-leaders of the ancient human race were not able to enter the immortal path, today they are still at the level of overlords at the ninth level of the spiritual realm. They were unable to enter the immortal path just because of the constraints of heaven and earth.
The inheritance they left behind will naturally attract countless people to covet it.
What's more, since the theory spread by Pei Xuanjing and the five ways to become immortals among the five categories of heaven, earth, humans, gods and ghosts have become widely known, all the powerful people have understood the importance of this spiritual cave.
Although according to the method of becoming an immortal according to the Earth Immortal Way, the transformation of the Earth Immortal requires not only promotion of the spiritual realm to the Small Thousand Worlds, but also the cultivation of one's own civilization before he can be promoted.
But even so, the spiritual cave is very attractive to many powerful people in the world, making them flock to it.
Regardless of Pei Xuanjing's last life simulation, in just a few hundred years, he built the prototype of the secret realm and successfully promoted it to the spiritual realm. He thought it was very simple.
In fact, it was not the case. Not to mention that Pei Xuanjing had the experience of opening up the Small Thousand Worlds. He was still a true immortal. And based on his status in the life simulation at that time, the resources he searched were so huge that he could naturally complete these things at any cost.
But for the powerful people in the Ming Dynasty, even those who are the most powerful, it is very difficult to complete this matter independently.
Not to mention these ordinary casual cultivators, even some strong men from big forces, if they cannot get the support of the entire sect, it is not easy to build a spiritual realm cave.
The Secret Realm Blessed Land is still simple, but the resources needed to advance to the Spiritual Realm Cave Heaven are unimaginable, and there is also the possibility of failure. Once it fails, the success will be wasted, and the original Secret Realm Blessed Land may even collapse.
And even if it succeeds, the subsequent continued support will be an extremely huge expense, and ordinary monks and forces are not qualified to support it.
This is why these top powers clearly master the method of creating a spiritual cave. Over the years, all major powers have basically only had a spiritual cave.
Because for them, even if they are lucky enough to be promoted to a spiritual cave again, they cannot afford the resources consumed by the continuous improvement and support of this spiritual cave.
It was during these years that, after it was confirmed that the way of the Earth Immortal could really prove the true immortality, some monks were willing to spend all their money on it, and they were willing to pay to build a secret blessed land and follow the way of the Earth Immortal.
"For casual cultivators, or without the support of big forces, it is extremely difficult for the Earth Immortal Way to succeed." One of the strongest among the casual cultivators once said with emotion.
If among the five ways to become immortals, ghost immortals are treacherous and mysterious, gods require the power of faith and incense, human immortals test their own will, and heavenly immortals have requirements for qualifications, then the way of earthly immortals requires the wealth of cultivators the most.
The requirements for qualifications of the way of earthly immortals are not high, but the requirements for resources are unimaginable.
Without the support of a big force and not enough resources, don't even think about taking the way of earthly immortals.
In a simple sentence, poor B is not worthy of being an earthly immortal. Even if you are lucky enough to promote the blessed land to the cave heaven, if there is no existence to support the cave heaven and the resources are not provided in time, the cave heaven can also be destroyed.
Therefore, in this case, some strong people thought of a way to take shortcuts, that is, they don't need to promote themselves to the cave heaven, but choose to explore and inherit some cave heavens that others have perfected.
In addition to the spiritual realm cave heavens handed down by these big forces, there are also strong forces like the ancient human race leader in this world. Although they still fell, they still passed down their spiritual realm cave heavens.
These spiritual realm caves can experience countless years and have not been ruined or decayed, which means that there is a supporting existence in the spiritual realm caves, which can achieve self-circulation and does not need resources to support it. Although it may not be able to make any progress, it will not fall.
This method of inheriting the spiritual realm cave and becoming an immortal by following the path of earthly immortals is not completely imaginary, but has been verified.
During the more than 100 years that Pei Xuanjing was in seclusion, several people inherited the mature spiritual realm caves handed down from ancient times by chance. Although among them, except for one of the strongest people who summoned his friends to defeat the enemy and guard the spiritual realm cave, the rest of the inheritors were killed and plundered because of their insufficient strength, but there is no doubt that this path is feasible and bright.
Even because of the practice of summoning friends to protect the mature spiritual realm cave that he inherited, it also triggered another idea among many strong people, that everyone jointly controlled the spiritual realm cave, similar to the method of Pin Xixi's proof of the Tao.
After this method appeared, more strong men united together. They formed an alliance and reached an agreement to search for the possible spiritual realm cave heaven between heaven and earth with the method of fighting day and night to prove the way.
At this moment, the prototype of the human heaven created by the ancient human leader was born, which made countless strong men happy, because the power of the strong men that such a top-level spiritual realm cave heaven can accommodate must be far more than before, and can be shared by more strong men.
But they didn't expect that they would be occupied by Zhu Houcong, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, before they could take action. How could they not be angry and willing to give up.
"Zhu Houcong, give up this spiritual realm cave heaven, and I can promise to let you leave." A powerful man said.
The person who spoke was a giant of the magic way, respected as the Blood Spirit Taoist. This powerful man of the magic way was an old devil of the magic way. Although he had never stepped into the way of true immortals, his terrifying strength was not weak among the powerful men.
What's more, besides himself, there are three other strongest people who are his allies. The four strongest people join hands and are well-known in the many earthly immortal alliances that are fighting hard to prove their way.
In addition to these people, there are several alliances around that are watching every move here, all of which are famous strongest people in the world.
Take a closer look, now the cultivators who are qualified to stand outside this spiritual realm cave and block Zhu Houcong's departure are all strong people, about fifteen or sixteen, divided into three or four alliances.
At this moment, although Zhu Houcong has promoted to the realm of the strongest with the help of the accumulated faith incense in this spiritual realm cave, and Wang Boan and Wu Shijiu are helping him, the three of them are also ugly, for the current situation.
"If these parties are not harboring their own ulterior motives and cannot cooperate with all their strength, even if we have the support of the spiritual realm cave, we can't resist them." Wu Shijiu said with an ugly face.
Zhu Houcong also looked solemn and nodded, "They are hesitant and afraid to act rashly."
After the birth of the True Immortal, he was in seclusion for decades but still could not be promoted to the ninth level of the Spirit Realm, so he tried his best to send people to find the prototype of the human heaven left by the human leader.
When it took decades to explore the news, it was also the time when the way of earthly immortals was most widely spread. After seeing the ending of those people who got the Spirit Realm Cave Heaven, Zhu Houcong was also very afraid.
In order to be foolproof, he not only invited Wu Shijiu to come, but also asked Wang Boan to come together, just to quickly refine the authority of the Spirit Realm Cave Heaven and master it.
But he never thought that at the last moment, the news was still leaked, and he was blocked here before he left after refining.
He knew that even if the three of them were strong enough to deal with four or five supreme masters, even if the fifteen or sixteen supreme masters could not cooperate completely, they could not contend with them, even with the support of the Spiritual Realm Cave Heaven.
The reason why these people did not take action was that they were still a little afraid. One was that they were afraid of destroying the Spiritual Realm Cave Heaven, and the other was that they were afraid of the people behind them.
Perhaps Zhu Houcong thought that his identity as the emperor of the Great Ming Dynasty was very important, but in the eyes of many people, his other identity, the identity of the registered disciple of the True Immortal Shenxiao Zhenjun, really made many powerful people afraid.
Even though the Great Ming Dynasty was powerful, it was still a mortal dynasty at best. Even if Zhu Houcong had the combat power of a supreme master that could make many cultivators look up to him, it was nothing in the eyes of many supreme masters.
On the contrary, his relationship with Pei Xuanjing made many powerful people wary. You should know that this Shenxiao Zhenjun has only two disciples. In addition to the direct disciple Pang Hong, who is now the head of the Shenxiao Sect, there is the registered disciple Zhu Houcong.
They don’t know the complicated situation between the Ming Dynasty and Zhu Houcong and Pei Xuanjing. What they can see is that the Ming Dynasty was supported by Pei Xuanjing, and he also took good care of Zhu Houcong.
In addition, there is also a true immortal sect such as Wushen Sect. Although Wushen Sect is not the state religion of the Ming Dynasty, it is also deeply entangled with the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, even if they want to seize this spiritual realm cave at this moment, they are unwilling to really tear their faces and attract the two true immortals to take action.
"Even if they are afraid of the consequences, these people will never give up easily in front of huge benefits. Your Majesty, do you think they will leave easily?" Wang Boan said calmly.
Even in the face of such a situation with powerful enemies everywhere, Wang Boan still looked calm, unlike the other two.
Of course, he also knew that even if these people were afraid of the existence of the two true immortals behind them, with their greed, they would never give up this spiritual realm easily.
Zhu Houcong stroked the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi in his hand. Since Pei Xuanjing gave him the projection of the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, he did not integrate the Taoism and perception into his own Taoism like Wang Boan and Wu Shijiu. Instead, he followed Pei Xuanjing's method of refining the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi and solidified it into a divine weapon with divine materials.
He looked into the distance and thought in his heart. "I just don't know if Senior Brother Pang of Shenxiao Sect has received my news."
Pang Hong is Pei Xuanjing's direct disciple, and Zhu Houcong is a registered disciple. Regardless of the time of apprenticeship and the identity and age of the two, Zhu Houcong should call Pang Hong Senior Brother.
But from the beginning to the end, for so many years, Zhu Houcong either thought of his identity or because of his strength, so Zhu Houcong never called Pang Hong senior brother once.
But now it is completely different. Even if his strength exceeds Pang Hong, the other party is a direct disciple of the True Immortal. After turning to the Golden Elixir Avenue for so many years, his cultivation has also made great progress. He is in charge of the immortal sect of Shenxiao Sect, and is fully qualified to be called senior brother by Zhu Houcong.
Not long ago, when he found that a powerful person coveted this spiritual realm cave, he decisively sent a message to Shenxiao Sect, hoping to get rescue.
