There are two ways for family immortals to cultivate into human bodies during their practice.
One is to rely on one's own strength, force through the barriers, and cultivate into a human body.
If one's own strength is not enough, there is a second way, which is to "ask for a title".
Ask for a "mouth seal" from someone who has merit, magical powers and fame, so as to achieve a human body.
Although both methods can cultivate a human body, the difference after cultivation is huge. Those who rely on their own strength to cultivate a human body will be more powerful and their Taoism will increase greatly.
Those who rely on "asking for titles" will lose all their spiritual power and become just human beings, who will experience birth, old age, sickness and death like ordinary people.
As for whether there will be another opportunity in the future, it depends on the individual.
Generally speaking, the path of cultivation for those who seek titles as adults is basically cut off.
There is no doubt that relying on one's own strength to cultivate into a human body is the best choice.
But the problem is that the probability of this is about the same as "a fish leaping over the dragon gate", and the lucky ones are always only a very small minority.
For most of the immortals, escaping the cycle of animal reincarnation and cultivating into a human body is their greatest wish in life.
This is the case with the yellow-skinned guy.
Huangpizi gave himself a name, Huang Chengren.
I just hope that one day I can be reborn as a human being, live like a human being, live in a house and sleep in a bed, get married and have children, enjoy the fireworks of the world, and escape from that cold, damp, dirty and smelly yellow-skinned cave.
Before Huang Chengren awakened his spiritual intelligence, he was just like most yellow foxes, foraging for food in the mountains and fields to survive.
It was purely out of luck. The yellow foxes that grew up with it either died of illness or fell to death, were bitten to death by wild dogs, or were killed by eagles. Only it was alive and well, surviving year after year.
Finally, when it was 21 years old, it was moved by the mountains, rivers, sun and moon, and suddenly its spiritual wisdom was awakened and it understood the method of cultivation.
After practicing, Huang Chengren "rejuvenated" and his life span increased by more than a hundred years.
What followed was a century of hard training, during which Huang Chengren narrowly escaped death and encountered countless dangers.
The most dangerous time was when it was chased by a group of trained humans who wanted to take its fur and sell it at a high price, forcing it to jump off a cliff.
Survived a great disaster!
But since then, Huang Chengren has also suffered psychological trauma.
He put almost all his energy into practicing life-saving techniques such as illusion and concealment, while neglecting the improvement of his Taoism.
This also cut off Huang Chengren's last hope of relying on his own strength to cultivate into a human body.
Essentially, this choice couldn't be wrong. Reaching a human form through sheer strength was a rare occurrence. Without the ability to cast illusions or conceal themselves, it would likely have died long ago.
This is a choice, there is no right or wrong.
But no matter what, Huang Chengren lost the opportunity to directly cultivate into a human body.
That leaves the second one.
Ask for a title.
Who should I ask for the title from?
Liang Shijie.
Liang Shijie was only fifteen years old that year.
But Huang Chengren could see at a glance that Liang Shijie had an extraordinary destiny and would have a bright future. If he asked for a title from such a person, he would be able to cultivate himself into a human body.
But it is not so easy to ask for a title. The person who is asked for a title will have his lifespan shortened and lose some of his good fortune.
This is equivalent to the person being asked to contribute his lifespan and good fortune to help Huang Chengren achieve his goal.
Whoever does it is stupid.
Things like this must be planned carefully before taking action.
If you casually ask for a title from someone, you are making a mockery of your last chance to cultivate into a human being.
So how do we plan and act?
Of course it’s a transaction.
Huang Chengren found the young Liang Shijie, and after going through the twists and turns of the communication between the two species, the deal was done.
Both sides got what they needed. Huang Chengren helped Liang Shijie to pass the test, study, take the imperial examination, become an official, and get promoted. Liang Shijie gave Huang Chengren a "verbal seal" on the day he asked for the title.
Under Huang Chengren's escort, Liang Shijie had a smooth journey. There was a road over the mountains and a bridge over the water, and he was able to turn danger into safety.
In just ten years, he grew from a young boy to a third-rank official in charge of a government office.
This cannot be said to be entirely Huang Chengren's credit, but Huang Chengren did provide a lot of help. He provided all kinds of spiritual herbs that clear the mind and eyesight, enhance memory, and animal pills that strengthen the body. Huang Chengren had very few days of leisure. He also warded off several disasters for the Liang family and dealt with several disturbances under his rule.
Well, Liang Shijie is in a high position and has the qualifications to silence Huang Chengren.
As a result... Liang Shijie broke his promise.
On the day Huang Chengren asked for his title, when he hopefully asked Liang Shijie "Do I look like a human being?" Liang Shijie shouted, "You evil scoundrel with shifty eyes, do you think you are worthy of being called a human being? Die!"
The four powerful men jumped up and not only refused to silence Huang Chengren, but also wanted to kill him to prevent future troubles.
This resentment!
Ten times more potent than killing a person.
Two decades of cultivation were destroyed by Liang Shijie's words, and Huang Chengren would never be able to cultivate into a human body again.
Moreover, its time limit has come, and if it fails to cultivate into a human body, it will die.
After escaping with his life, Huang Chengren became extremely ferocious and wanted to fight Liang Shijie directly, but Liang Shijie was protected by his official authority and Huang Chengren could do nothing about it.
Helplessly, Huang Chengren could only use magic to attack indirectly, starting with other members of the Liang family.
The first target was Old Master Liang. Huang Chengren understood human nature and knew that Old Master Liang was very sensitive about his reputation, so he created a false image that Old Master Liang was having an affair with Liang Shijie's concubine and spread it out, forcing Old Master Liang to hang himself.
After Old Master Liang committed suicide, it used secret methods to induce Old Master Liang's corpse to rise again, attempting to use Old Master Liang to kill Liang Shijie.
Unfortunately, Qin He's appearance interfered and Huang Chengren's plan was delayed.
Helpless, it could only take matters into its own hands. It first sealed off the Liang family with magic, then personally slaughtered them, creating more corpses. As the Liang family buried the bodies, it continued to kill them, until the Liang family could no longer bury them, and then it would replicate the same pattern and create another corpse.
Unfortunately, just on the eve of its success, Qin He came again.
This is what happened just now.
"In fact, life is quite hard, especially in this chaotic world where human life is worthless." Qin He asked while cracking melon seeds.
The story was actually not long, but Huang Chengren kept talking on and on for quite a while.
"You are a human being. You will not understand how much we animals who have lived in dark and damp caves all our lives long to be human. Only by becoming human beings can we live in houses, wear clothes and enjoy the fireworks of the world with peace of mind. Otherwise, even if we enjoy it, we will soon attract strong men to kill us with our skins covered." Huang Chengren shook his head.
Qin He was a little shocked by what it said.
Maybe it’s true that everything you despise may be what others dream of.
"Can you help me kill Liang Shijie? He is not a good official, nor a good person. As long as you kill him, I promise you can take away my yellow skin. I will not hold any resentment and I will be able to protect your descendants." After a pause, Huang Chengren's eyes were filled with hope.
Qin He paused and shook his head. "Who is right and who is wrong will be judged by the King of Hell after death. I won't open the case. I'm here just to stop you from killing innocent people."
"If I can kill Liang Shijie directly, I will never touch his family at all." Huang Chengren pleaded.
"It doesn't matter what you think, what matters is what you do." Qin He shook his head.
The transaction of one person and one yellow skin is only known to the parties involved, and the rest of the people are all innocent.
Pity is not a reason to commit sin.
Huang Chengren's eyes dimmed.
"However, since you have done good deeds for half your life, I will give you three thousand merits so that you can experience the worldly life for ten days. But there is one thing: you must not harbor any resentment in your heart. After ten days, you will die of old age." At this time, Qin He finished cracking the last melon seed and said quietly.
