Chapter 22: Seeking the Immortal Lineage and Solving the Mystery

Li Yan was stunned after hearing this, "Spiritual consciousness, there is such a magical thing." But then he felt speechless again. His room and the teacher's room were only six or seven feet apart. In this way, wouldn't the teacher know what he did and said in the room?

After the old man smiled slightly, he continued, "When the spiritual consciousness is strong to a certain extent, it can be used to kill people directly. A powerful cultivator only needs one spiritual consciousness to kill people invisibly, and even kill creatures lower than themselves in a batch. In short, the spiritual consciousness will continue to grow stronger with the growth of cultivation. After reaching the Nascent Soul stage, several spiritual consciousnesses can form a spiritual thought, and the function of the spiritual thought will be more powerful. You can only slowly explore and know these in the future." The old man said in a somewhat ethereal tone.

"After I came out of retreat, I waited in the sect for about a hundred years, but no one from the four sects returned. At that time, I was already in the early stage of fusion. Although I had gone out to look for the successor in the Spiritualization Stage and the Void Refining Stage before, I didn't find him. There were still some farther places I hadn't been to, so I didn't delay any more and went out again to look for the inheritance of my sect. But this time, I went out for five or six hundred years. I crossed several vast regional continents, searched through thousands of mountains and rivers, and searched the desert polar regions, but still didn't find the successor. Finally, I broke through the void and came to the mortal world, hoping to gain something. In this way, I searched in the mortal world for more than two hundred years and still found nothing. But just once, I got a message that there was a hidden place in the mortal world. The people there might have more spiritual roots, but this place was already a very remote place in the mortal world. From the news, I learned that even the immortals in ancient times... When the great powers of the world were looking for spiritual veins to establish inheritance in this world, they also failed to successfully establish a sect there. As for why, no records were preserved. It was only recorded that the weather and spiritual energy there were the best in this world, and there were many people with excellent spiritual roots. However, to get there, one needs to go through a long and dangerous road with strange red thunder tribulations. The degree of danger is unprecedented even in the fairy world. It is said that at least one must have the magic power of the tribulation period to pass through. I thought about it again and again, and decided to go and take a look. The Taoist tradition of this sect cannot be lost in my generation. But before I went, I left a divine thought in a fairy jade box. This jade box can preserve the divine thought for tens of thousands of years and can sense whether humans within thousands of miles have spiritual roots. Now I am that divine thought, and my body has gone to that unknown place. "The old man looked at Li Yan and said.

Li Yan was numb at this time. He had come into contact with too many magical or weird things today. Now this old man said that he was just composed of a divine thought, so if he said it was, it was not impossible. So he was no longer surprised, just listened quietly.

"But I overlooked one thing, that is, driving this fairy jade box also requires constant consumption of divine power. At the beginning, I drove the jade box in this fairy jade box to fly across this continent to search. More than a thousand years have passed, and I still haven't found the inheritor. But now I realize that if I continue to search like this, my divine power may be exhausted in hundreds of thousands of years, and then it will dissipate. So I came up with an idea to transform the jade box into an ancient jade book, and I will still be in it. If this book is found by a cultivator, he will definitely regard it as some kind of fairy treasure. Of course, they will never be able to crack the secrets in this book." The gray-shirted old man said this, with a strong confidence on his face. Even if he is not the real body, but just a divine power, he believes that no one in this world can recognize the secrets of the jade book he transformed.

"Since they have obtained this jade book, but cannot peek into its secrets, they should regard it as a treasure. The best way is of course to carry it with you. On the one hand, it is convenient for you to study it at any time. On the other hand, it is most reassuring to keep the treasure by your side. In that way, he will take me to move constantly, and I only need to follow the movement and search different areas, without having to consume extra spiritual power to drive the fairy jade box. In this way, this transformed jade book was obtained by one cultivator after another. Some of them were killed and then obtained by the next cultivator. Some carried it with them for hundreds of years and died, and were obtained by treasure hunters again. Of course, they could never unlock the secrets in the book, but people are like this. The more they cannot get, the more precious they think it is. They took the jade book and traveled through one area after another in the mortal world. One million years passed like this. I found many people with mixed spiritual roots, but I still couldn't find the right person. At this time, I found that my spiritual power was weakened by 60-70%. At the same time, I also sensed that my original body should not have found the successor, and the original body has not died. There is a sense between me and the original body. If he dies, I will know. If he finds the successor, I will also know. I think the original body should be trapped somewhere. I have to continue looking for the inheritor, but according to the previous method, this divine consciousness can only support 200,000 to 300,000 years, so I have to think of another way, which is to let the main divine consciousness fall into a dormant state to reduce consumption, and separate a weaker divine consciousness from the main divine consciousness to replace the divine consciousness to scan, but it is only a weaker divine consciousness. In order to reduce consumption, it can only scan within a radius of about 100 miles, and it has no attack ability, but this is the best solution. If this divine consciousness scans the person I am looking for, it will wake up the main divine consciousness, and the main divine consciousness can naturally identify the person. After the sexual assessment, the memory will be passed down; but this wisp of consciousness can only last for about a thousand years before it dissipates. However, before it dissipates, it will wake up the main consciousness and pass on what it has seen and heard over the years to the main consciousness. Then this wisp of consciousness will dissipate between heaven and earth. At this time, the main consciousness will separate another wisp of consciousness and continue to sleep. Of course, in this way, the main consciousness will gradually be weakened and become weaker and weaker, but this can extend the search time. "The old man narrated this, and Li Yan was silent, but he sighed in his heart at the powerful ability of the cultivators. A wisp of thought can survive in this world for a thousand years. This is something that mortals can still imagine.

"Just like that, hundreds of thousands of years passed. During this period, we also found many people with mixed spiritual roots, but we still couldn't get the people we needed. About fifty years ago, the Jade Book was obtained by a Jindan-stage cultivator. Once, when he was traveling outside, he met a very powerful enemy. He used all his magical powers to escape from the pursuit, but at that time he was already seriously injured, and the Jindan in his body was almost on the verge of collapse. He barely flew back to his cave, wanting to recover in the cave, but he died as soon as he arrived in the cave. Until one day fourteen or fifteen years later, this cave was accidentally discovered by a small cultivator in the foundation-building stage. Originally, he could not find this cave with his little Taoism. Even if he happened to find the cave, he could not break the cave-protecting formation of a Jindan-stage cultivator. However, when this Jindan-stage cultivator returned to the cave, he only opened the entrance of the formation, and died before he could activate the formation again. So a small cultivator broke in. The small cultivator got here. He had gained a lot of benefits, including this book, so he couldn't help but get carried away and searched every corner of the cave more recklessly. However, he was overjoyed and unexpectedly inspired the cave's protective formation. Fortunately, he was very smart and escaped immediately when he felt something was wrong. However, he knew that he was so decisive, and the formation set up by the Jindan period cultivator was not something he could bear. During the escape, the young cultivator was still hit by the formation attack. When he came out, not only was he dying, but even his clothes and storage bag had been scattered. Oh, this storage bag, you can understand it as the storage of immortals, a small bag, but according to the grade, it can be used to store things of different sizes through immortal methods. You can investigate this later. In fact, this is the fate of this young cultivator. This is the way it is in the world of immortal cultivation. Opportunities are often accompanied by dangers, and dangers often foreshadow death. "When the old man said this, the blurred face of the figure began to become unclear.

Li Yan looked at the old man's blurred face and figure, thinking, "Is this the collapse of his mind that he just mentioned?"

"After the storage bag of this young monk was shattered, in addition to the book transformed by the jade box, there was also a jade slip and a paper book protected by immortal magic that were preserved. However, the protection of the immortal magic on the paper book was shattered and eliminated in the explosion of the storage bag. Not long after, the young monk also returned to the underworld. In this way, I continued to sleep, waiting for the next "predestined person" to get this jade book. One day a few years later, a black-robed mortal suddenly came here and got the jade book, jade slip and the paper book that was no longer protected by immortal magic from the dry bones of this foundation-building young monk." At this time, the old man paused, and a strange smile appeared on his blurred face.

Li Yan pondered for a moment and said to the old man, "This person must be my teacher."

The old man's blurred figure nodded and said, "That's right, this person is your current "teacher" Ji Junshi." When he said the word "teacher", he deliberately emphasized the tone and also had a hint of playfulness.

Li Yan could hear the sarcasm in the old man's words. His "teacher" must have some problems. He could only guess that it was related to him, but he was still not sure what the problem was.

"Your 'teacher' is not a secular martial arts sect of 'Muyingmen'. That was just a sect he casually mentioned. He is actually 'Xunxian Yimai'."

When Li Yan heard this, although he could guess that his "teacher" had some secrets from the old man's expression, he was surprised to hear that even the sect was fictitious and not a martial artist. He couldn't help but ask, "What is 'Xunxian Yimai'? Looking for immortals?"

"Haha, you are somewhat right. Since the immortals in the ancient immortal world came to the mortal world and established many immortal families or After the formation of sects, tens of thousands of years have passed, and some people in the secular world have vaguely known about these things, and they are eager to enter these families or sects, so that they can have the opportunity to cultivate immortality and obtain the way to longevity. At first, only a few scattered people went to the mountains to look for immortality, hoping to find immortals and be favored by them. However, there are many monsters and ghosts in the mountains, and often these people have not found their own immortality, but have become food in the stomachs of monsters or souls under the claws of ghosts.

This is not the result that these people who hope to cultivate immortality want, so they slowly get together to find immortality, so that when they meet monsters, they can Even when they were fighting beasts and ghosts, they could take care of each other. Although the result was much better than before, there were still a lot of casualties;

Later, secular martial artists joined in. Some of them were hired by them, and some martial artists joined in pursuit of stronger power. After hearing about the existence of immortals, they resolutely joined in. With their joining, the probability of death was greatly reduced. In this way, they searched for their own immortal fate in the rivers and bad waters.

Later, some of them with spiritual roots really found some immortal gates, and also worshipped in the immortal gates and practiced immortal methods; at the same time, some people found the dead immortals. If they happen to have spiritual roots, they can also embark on the path of immortality. This further aroused the confidence of these people, and they simply stopped asking about worldly affairs and practiced martial arts together to enable themselves to go deeper into unknown places. They did not enter the world, did not travel the rivers and lakes, and only wanted to pursue the fate of immortality. Therefore, few secular people know that they are called "Xunxian Yimai" by immortal cultivators, and Ji Junshi is the successor of this "Xunxian Yimai". "

After listening to this, Li Yan thought in his heart, "I don't know why my teacher lied to me and said he was from the "Muyingmen"? "This is something he has not figured out yet.

"When Military Advisor Ji obtained the jade book, jade slip and the book, he was naturally happy, but he didn't know that this was also his great luck. The paper book and the jade slip were originally a set of immortal skills, called "Black Night Curtain Green Art", but the paper book recorded the method of sensing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the formulas for the first three levels of the Qi Condensation Period for the entry of immortal skills, and the jade slip recorded the formulas and skills for the fourth to tenth levels of the Qi Condensation Period. It should be used by a certain immortal sect for the entry of the Qi Condensation Period. The reason for this design is that the consciousness of people who have just cultivated immortals is too weak to leave the body, and they have to cultivate to the third level before they can... The jade slip can only be opened after leaving the body, so the first three levels are usually recorded in paper books, and then protected by the sect's immortal method. Ordinary mortals cannot open it. Some books have strong immortal protection, even the immortal cultivators in the foundation building stage cannot open it. As for the immortal cultivators in the foundation building stage or above, even if they have the ability to break it, they don't have the heart to do so. They are already people who can establish their own sects, so they don't care about these entry-level low-level techniques. And even if they practice, the paper books usually only record the first three levels, so what's the point of having them."
