My ordinary path to immortality shouldn't end here.

Chapter 43 It turns out that the ancestor is dead

The air was like smoke and clouds, vast and steaming, continuously gushing out from Bai Chijing's body.

However, the next moment, it was like a young swallow returning to its nest.

They all sank into the bead in Bai Chijing's right palm, and the thing that looked like an eye in it immediately moved slightly.

Words that matched Bai Chijing's understanding began to manifest:
Today, you attempted to cultivate the first Dharmakāya. You felt it was quite simple, for it was, after all, the first step. However, you were still completely clueless, having mastered six of the seven.

[Refine, obtain the first level of Wufeng Condensation Enlightenment +1]

The first Dharmakaya of the Ten Thousand Swords Phase is called Wufeng. The Dharmakayas condensed from different external phases all have their own names.

At this time, as the words began to fade, Bai Chijing finally found the opportunity to condense his first Dharmakāya.

Suddenly, an invisible and soul-stirring sense of oppression appeared around Bai Chijing, which came from the pressure of the Ten Thousand Swords Form that he had cultivated.

Cultivators in the external realm can only feel this sense of oppression.

Only when one’s cultivation reaches the external realm can one see the circles of sword wheels lingering around Bai Chijing at this moment.

This is an illusion.

Suddenly, a little light appeared in one place among the circles of sword wheels.

Although the light did not cover too much of the sword wheels, and only spread to a few small areas, it made these sword wheels suddenly seem more real.

"There are also thirty-two Dharma-image acupoints..."

Bai Chijing opened his eyes and felt a sense of relief.

After several days of continuous meditation and practice, I finally reaped the rewards today.

"It is indeed difficult to condense this Dharma-image secret."

Bai Chijing sighed sincerely, this first Dharmakaya secret can be said to be the simplest, and the difficulty of cultivating it is equivalent to cultivating the initial stage of external objects, because this is the care of the ancestor of the Dharma lineage for the younger generations.

What is the ancestor of the Dharma lineage?

This is the method that we are practicing, and the one who has achieved the culmination of it after tracing back to its source.

In the Yaotian Realm, all the methods that could be spread had some connection with the heavens, because the founders of these methods, without exception, had ascended to heaven.

The person who practices the most powerful and perfect method of a certain lineage is undoubtedly its founder.

If it is not perfect, then it cannot be created at all.

Therefore, in order to better pass on their own Dharma lineage, these Dharma lineage ancestors displayed their magical powers and bestowed some benefits on the younger generations who practiced their own Dharma.

Of course, not all practitioners of one's own lineage can obtain this benefit.

You have to at least cultivate to the external realm before you can enjoy it.

Those independent cultivators who have incomplete inheritance are able to condense the first Dharma image orifice, relying on the care of their Dharma lineage ancestor.

However, Bai Chijing seemed to have no regard for the ancestor of this lineage at all.

The difficulty of the first Dharmakāya is as high as it can be!
Fortunately, he had a magical object with him, so even if it was difficult to condense the Dharma Acupoint, Bai Chijing did not care too much. After all, he was very clear about his own talent for cultivation.

It’s just the second-class “entry into the Tao”, what else is there to ask for?
Although he should have some talent in swordsmanship, after Bai Chijing verified it several times, he felt that although his talent in swordsmanship was not zero, it was less than one.

Greater than zero, less than one.

He has some talent in swordsmanship, but not much.

Therefore, with such self-awareness, Bai Chijing calmly comprehended the second secret of the Dharma.

……

heaven.

This is a place that mortals cannot imagine. And the rumored Heavenly Palace, even just a corner of it, is a place that mortals cannot see at all.

Everyone does not know about immortality.

Immortals do not know about ordinary people.

And in this place that mortals cannot imagine, there was a place where the melodious sound of the piano was continuous, but suddenly, the sound of the piano stopped.

"What's wrong? Madam, what worries you?" A charming and gentle female voice soon sounded.

"Nothing, it's just that the Dharma lineage I left behind, surprisingly, someone has cultivated to the Outer Appearance Realm."

"Then... can we deal with it?"

"No need, it's just an insignificant ant."

……

The difficulty of refining the second Dharma-Appearance Acupoint in the Outer Appearance Realm is undoubtedly far greater than the first one, because this is the true difficulty of practicing the Dharma-Appearance Acupoint.

The first secret of the Dharma is simple, it is just that the master is taking special care of his younger disciples.

But... that's for other people.

Because after Bai Chijing had been meditating and practicing for a few days, he had condensed the second Dharmakāya.

The second acupoint of the Ten Thousand Swords Aspect was called the Mysterious Holding Aspect. The circles of sword wheels brightened again, appearing even more lifelike.

Even those who have reached the outer realm of cultivation can see the numerous sword shadows lingering around Bai Chijing.

However, Bai Chijing's expression became strange. He said with a sudden realization, "The founder of the Dharma lineage I cultivated has already died..."

No wonder it was so difficult for him to condense the first Dharmakāya.

Then, Bai Chijing thought about it and made an unexpected trip. He went to Fenghuan Pavilion and used a few Zhou seals to buy some incense sticks.

With the sky as his tablet, he burned incense and paid his respects respectfully.

After all, the dead are the most important.

Bai Chijing had always been a respectful person. If he hadn't known that the founder of the Dharma lineage was dead, then it would have been fine. But now that he had guessed it, he couldn't pretend ignorance any longer.

Since you are practicing the Dharma that others have worked hard to create, it is only right that you burn a few incense sticks for them.

This is not a pretense, nor is it to make one's thoughts clear, it is simply to live up to one's own morals.

After burning incense and paying homage, Bai Chijing began to comprehend and practice the third Dharmakāya.

This secret of Dharma is naturally quite difficult to master.

But Bai Chijing naturally didn't care.

Just like that, three months had passed unnoticed since Bai Chijing broke through to the Outer Appearance Realm. During these three months, he had been constantly comprehending the secrets of practicing the Dharma Appearance.

The difficulty of refining the Dharma Acupoints almost doubles every three.

Therefore, after a hundred days of seclusion, Bai Chijing only managed to refine eleven Dharma-phase Acupoints when he came out. He wanted to refine all thirty-three Dharma-phase Acupoints, which would take at least two years.

This made Bai Chijing once again sigh at the difficulty of practicing.

After all, this was his first breakthrough since crossing over, a journey that took years. Before this, the journey from the initial to the intermediate realm of the Outer Realm had taken only six hours. And the journey from the intermediate to the upper realm of the Outer Realm had also taken only a few days. Even including the time spent in the Weeping Sword Valley, it still only took a few dozen days.

However, now, it takes nearly a thousand days to break through from the initial stage of the External Minister to the middle stage.

This is quite a long time.

"Sword Immortal Realm..." Bai Chijing walked out of the cave. This was exactly the purpose of his coming out of seclusion this time.
