My Mythical Path to Immortality in Another World
Chapter 51 Loneliness
It is said that the Daoist Master left behind a cultivation method that leads directly to the ninth realm, the "Great Dao Golden Elixir Method," a sixteen-chapter "Questioning the Dao Scripture" that expounds the mysteries of heaven and earth, and nine parts of the "Boundless Spiritual Treasure Method" used to protect the Dao.
The Great Dao Golden Elixir Method is not very useful; it is merely a cultivation technique that transforms the three treasures of human cultivation into a golden elixir. Gold represents immortality, and elixir represents primordial chaos.
Modern spiritual practices have been influenced by this teaching to varying degrees.
The "Quest for the Way" is said to be the response given by the Daoist Master when he saw the Great Dao in the darkness during his enlightenment and asked the Great Dao many questions about cultivation and longevity.
The "Boundless Spiritual Treasure Method" elevates the method of condensing images, which involves continuously refining the image until it merges with the spiritual object, transforming the illusory into the real spiritual treasure, making it unparalleled in attack and protection.
The Nine Volumes of the "Boundless Spiritual Treasure Method" describe the methods for refining nine extremely powerful spiritual treasures.
They are the Taiji Diagram, the Heaven and Earth Exquisite Pagoda, the Eight Trigrams Furnace, the Vajra Bracelet, the Immortal Binding Rope, the Boundless Floating Dust, the Purple Gold Gourd, the Yin-Yang Wind and Fire Fan, and the Seven Star Mountain-Chasing Whip.
Legend has it that there is another method that can refine the Heavenly Court into a spiritual treasure, known as the Thirty-Three Layers of Creation Heavenly Palace.
Unfortunately, no one knows whether it's true or not.
Now, of the three ancestral mountains of the human race, Mangshan has lost all its Daoist essence to the Great Emperor of Burial Heaven, and is somewhat unworthy of its name.
Mount Sumeru sank into the underworld, where humanity fought in the netherworld.
Only Shouyang Mountain remains in the world.
Now Shouyang Mountain is controlled by the Imperial Court. Every cultivator who reaches the Divine Realm can go to Shouyang Mountain to meditate for three years. How much Dao Lord inheritance they can obtain depends entirely on their personal fortune.
Not only humans on Earth, but also members of various celestial courts are sent back each year to Shouyang Mountain to comprehend the Daoist Master's legacy.
Zhao Xuancheng's Dao-infused artifact was a replica of the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda, which he obtained from the Dao Master's inheritance.
Zhao Xuan had never been to Shouyang Mountain.
how to say?
The Immortal Realm gave Zhao Xuan an unreal feeling. The names of Heaven, Underworld, Seven Kingdoms, Yellow River, and Yangtze River made Zhao Xuan feel that they overlapped too much with his previous life.
Zhao Xuan has been consciously avoiding any interaction with beings whose past lives overlap with his own.
After all, in the various online novels Zhao Xuan read in his previous life, this was a standard behind-the-scenes conspiracy theory.
Before Zhao Xuan had cultivated to the Mythical Great Luo Realm he envisioned, he really didn't want to have any dealings with these people.
Even now, Zhao Xuan hasn't practiced any specific cultivation techniques, precisely to avoid any potential schemes or plots.
The Dao Lord's name was Taishang, and this name alone was enough to make Zhao Xuan wary.
Therefore, after reaching the Divine Realm, he did not go to Shouyang Mountain to comprehend the legacy of the Daoist Master Taishang.
But Zhao Xuan knew that if there was any real scheme, he couldn't escape it given his current level of cultivation.
If you can't avoid it, try to wait for more opportunities to help you.
That is, the complete lineage of the original master, and the complete lineage left behind by the remaining few.
If it weren't for the complete inheritance, Zhao Xuan would rather not even look at it.
After all, in that level of inheritance, each inheritance contains a complete authentic path.
To limit oneself, it is a common tactic to limit others with an imperfect Tao.
As for whether there was any real scheming involved, Zhao Xuan didn't care; it would be better if there wasn't.
If one cultivates to the mythical Great Luo realm that one envisions, then no amount of scheming will matter.
Therefore, Zhao Xuan could easily obtain the "Huangji Jingshi Jue" simply by mentioning it to Zhao Mingcheng, but Zhao Xuan did not cultivate it.
Even the Three Classics, Five Scriptures, and Seven Secrets have been passed down among the human race, but they are all incomplete, so Zhao Xuan did not specifically collect them.
Moreover, despite this, not many practitioners actually make this their primary focus.
There is a problem with cultivation techniques: if you switch to a different technique, you have to abandon the original one.
However, if the new cultivation method is from the same lineage as the previous one, only adjustments are needed.
Just like the "Huangji Jingshi Jing" comes from the "Huangji Jingtian Jue", it is a simplified version of the "Huangji Jingtian Jue" and is a cultivation method before the Emperor Realm. So when you reach the Emperor Realm, you can directly switch to cultivating the "Huangji Jingtian Jue".
Or it could be a follow-up cultivation method of the "Huangji Jingshi Jing" expanded upon by other powerful beings.
Zhao Mingcheng cultivates the "Huangji Jingshi Jing" because the Zhao family in the Starry Sky possesses the "Huangji Jingshi Jing," which directly reaches the peak level of the Emperor Realm.
Once Zhao Mingcheng abdicates the throne and goes to the starry sky, he can obtain the subsequent cultivation techniques from his family.
The level of one's cultivation technique determines the limit of a cultivator's combat power.
Those who cultivate the "Huangji Jingshi Jing" are naturally inferior to those who cultivate the "Huangji Jingtian Jue".
Of course, those who cultivate the "Huangji Jingshi Jing" are simply not as good as those who cultivate the "Huangji Jingtian Jue".
The "Huangji Jingshi Jing" itself is the most powerful cultivation method for the human race.
Therefore, Zhao Xuan sent out six people from Zhongshan, thinking that nine cultivators equivalent to the Boundless Holy Body should be able to find the complete inheritance of the Dao Lord Supreme.
Zhao Xuan, on the other hand, went to collect the power of emptiness to perfect his path to becoming a Mythical Great Luo.
In Zhao Xuan's vision of the mythical Great Luo, one controls all the power between heaven and earth, thereby controlling or being able to circumvent all authority between heaven and earth, in order to reach a state of transcendence.
Whether it's the so-called Tao or the Law, they are all means to achieve a goal.
If there is an easier way to achieve this goal, Zhao Xuan would not mind using the easier way.
For others, Zhao Xuan's method is more difficult. Zhao Xuan is able to cultivate in a different way because he is at the Wuji level and the flower blooms in an instant.
What does it mean for a flower to bloom in an instant? Flowering is an intermediate stage in the reproduction of plants.
The flowers attract insects to collect nectar, which then spread the pollen, and the male and female mate to produce fruit.
This fruit is the one that will be most beneficial to the human race.
Before the fruit, everything is illusory or nothing, while the fruit is real or exists.
Flowering is the intermediate stage between illusion and reality, between nothingness and existence.
The very act of a plant blooming instantly allows it to skip the process of growth or stimulating its vitality, going directly to the flowering stage.
And after flowering comes fruiting.
Therefore, the moment a flower blooms, it extends outward, transforming the abstract into the concrete, from nothing to something.
The supernatural flower blooming instantly transcends the limitation that only plants can flower and bear fruit.
Extend it to the level of vitality and inspiration.
The moment the flower blooms at the Wuji level, it breaks the limitations of vitality and spiritual energy, extending to all real and conceptual things.
Therefore, the flower possesses infinite defensive capabilities in an instant, because it can unleash the potential of power and transcend the boundaries of reality and illusion, allowing the defense of power to reach its peak state in an instant.
However, the corresponding consumption is very large, so many people, even if they possess the supernatural power of blooming flowers in an instant, do not use it as a defensive supernatural power.
When a wisp of boundless power attaches itself to it, the logic of the flower blooming in an instant is perfected.
It can both stimulate, seize, store, and fuse power.
That is, the Golden Flower protects the Way, the Golden Flower transforms into a spirit, and the Golden Flower comprehends the Way.
As for the final Golden Flower Domain, Zhao Xuan guessed that it truly belonged to the Limitless level of power. Even though Zhao Xuan had already stepped into the Saint Realm, he still couldn't use any of its mysteries.
But with just the first three profound techniques, Zhao Xuan was able to withstand attacks from the Emperor Realm level.
The attack launched by the Burning Star Fire on the land of Beichuan reached the Emperor Realm level, but it did not harm Zhao Xuan in the slightest.
Although Zhao Xuan consumed a lot of his magical power as a result.
However, Zhao Xuan could replenish his magical power by using the Golden Flower Spirit Transformation technique to refresh a few high-spiritual-power spiritual objects.
Therefore, Zhao Xuan has always taken the instant of a flower blooming as the foundation of his cultivation.
As for why he transmigrated, had a sudden enlightenment, and his supernatural powers were chosen by the power of Wuji.
Zhao Xuan didn't care whether there was some kind of scheming behind such a high degree of coincidence.
Whether it's the Supreme Being or the Human Emperor, these are all levels that Zhao Xuan can reach.
Their scheming will cause trouble for Zhao Xuan, but Zhao Xuan is not afraid of being schemed against; being schemed against means that he has value.
But Zhao Xuan was afraid of trouble. In his view, people get into trouble because they have something to ask for.
Since I ask nothing of them, they shouldn't bring me trouble.
The being capable of bestowing the power of the limitless is one that Zhao Xuan cannot access, and is not even recorded in the human immortal realm.
This kind of calculation is not even a calculation for Zhao Xuan.
The trouble caused by such scheming is something I have no control over.
The trouble of not being able to participate is not a trouble.
The Southern Barbarian Lands are nearly a million miles away from the Cold Kingdom, but this distance is not considered far for the Holy Realm on Earth.
In just three days, Zhao Xuan traversed a million miles and arrived at the border of the Southern Barbarians.
The Southern Barbarians are different from the other three desolate lands.
The desolation of the East China Sea is due to the lack of morality. The hundreds of millions of East China Sea survivors have no morality, no laws, and the strong are respected, feeding on the flesh and blood of the weak.
When their bloodline finally matures, they are harvested.
Using the blood of their own kind to aid their cultivation—this is the greatest sin of humanity under the great sun.
The desolation of the Western Wilderness stems from its environment; the vast expanse of yellow sand is devoid of human habitation, and the world is ravaged by the insectoid race.
This is a compromise that humanity has no choice but to make with the will of Heaven. Just as humanity could have wiped out all the alien races on Earth that could threaten its survival, it would cause an imbalance between the pure and impure, resulting in even greater harm to humanity. Therefore, it has no choice but to allow the demon race to run rampant and cause floods, with people dying every year as a result.
The desolation of Beichuan is due to the power of the Burning Star plundering some of life force, and only those above the Lesser Perfection Saint Body can briefly travel in the land of Beichuan.
The layout of Beichuan was designed to cultivate Tai Sui, so that the Earthlings would have a final defensive force when facing the last threat.
The desolation of the East Sea is the sin of the human race, something they are unwilling to face, self-hypnotizing themselves that the sins of the East Sea do not exist, and that the remnants of the East Sea do not exist.
The desolation of the Western Wilderness is a result of the human race's compromise, which makes them unwilling to admit their weakness and forced to compromise with the rules of Heaven, thus creating a spiritual wasteland.
The desolation of Beichuan reflects humanity's powerlessness. Even though humanity has become the strongest race on Earth, it remains powerless in the face of ever-present crises, forcing it to lay numerous contingency plans. This sense of powerlessness is something humanity is unwilling to confront, thus becoming a spiritual wasteland that humanity is unwilling to face.
The desolation of the Southern Barbarians is also a spiritual wasteland that the human race is unwilling to face.
The desolation of the Southern Barbarians is a constraint imposed on humanity by the laws of nature that the human race is unwilling to face.
The Southern Barbarians bound the power of emptiness, and although the power of emptiness is a force that plunders life force, it is still a force of the wood element.
Wood itself is the force of growth, and the force of growth is savage, fighting for every inch of sunlight, every drop of water, every inch of nutrients, and every inch of space in order to survive.
However, due to the balance of the heavens, the human race had to give a portion of the earth to the demon race.
Therefore, the wood element power of the Southern Barbarian land is the power of emptiness, a power that strips away life, causing everything to become empty, leaving nothing to bind the human race.
The five elements of the Heavenly Way are: Wood stands in the East, Fire burns in the South, Metal lies across the West, Water sinks in the North, and Earth exists in the center.
However, in the Five Elements system established by Qin Shi Huang, the east was the land of water, the south was the land of wood, and the north was the land of fire.
This is Qin Shi Huang's protest against the Way of Heaven, protesting that the Way of Heaven does not distinguish between good and evil and restricts the vitality of life.
However, the Earth element remained in the center, a sign of the Qin Emperor's respect for the land that gave birth to humankind.
The element of metal remains in the west, a reminder from the Qin Emperor that if Heaven cannot grant humanity fairness, then they should fight their way out with swords.
The Southern Barbarian Lands are a place where the power of the Wood element grows wildly, while the power of emptiness severs life when the Wood element extends outwards.
Therefore, the borders of the Southern Barbarian Lands, the Seven Kingdoms, the Western Wilderness, and the Eastern Sea are surrounded by an absolutely desolate land spanning tens of thousands of feet.
There are no plants or living beings here.
As Zhao Xuan walked through this desolate land, he felt a sense of bleakness and loneliness.
It was a feeling of solitude, as if one were abandoned by heaven and earth.
In the past, Zhao Xuan would have quickly adjusted his mindset to avoid the influence of such negative emotions.
But this time, Zhao Xuan did not try to balance his mindset.
Instead, they let this feeling of loneliness erode their souls.
My experiences over the past few hundred years, which I have traveled through time, gradually flooded my mind.
Even past life experiences are recalled along with this feeling of loneliness.
Someone once said that all human conflicts stem from a lack of effective communication.
Most human communication is ineffective, and over time, people become unwilling to communicate with each other.
As a result, conflicts began to accumulate, and war, plunder, killing, and death began to permeate human civilization.
Loneliness has become a uniquely human emotion.
Loneliness is the highest form of solitude.
Loneliness comes from being misunderstood, while solitude comes from being abandoned by all living beings.
Zhao Xuan allowed loneliness to erode his soul. When loneliness completely erodes the soul, it can plunge one into boundless despair, but it can also give rise to miracles.
A tear silently slid down Zhao Xuan's cheek.
Loneliness is an emotion, and emotions can resonate with others.
If one cannot resist this feeling of loneliness, one is not qualified to gain the recognition of the power of emptiness, and therefore not qualified to control the power of emptiness.
When you try to touch the power of emptiness but cannot resist this loneliness, your soul will be killed by this loneliness, and you will become just an empty shell.
Zhao Xuan's heart was immersed in boundless loneliness, and every fragment of the past memory was like a sharp sword piercing his heart.
These sharp swords that come at you are called guilt in human emotions.
When you enjoy solitude, every beautiful moment from the past will flood your mind, bringing a knowing smile to your face.
When loneliness turns into solitude, every beautiful moment becomes a source of guilt.
