Chapter 103: The Era of Building the Foundation and Creating the Law
Chapter 103: The Era of Building the Foundation and Creating the Law
Some regulations may seem outrageous, but there must be something even more outrageous happening behind them.
Zhang Yunlu took the water back to the desk, sat down on the sofa, and inserted the three crystal cards into the card slots respectively.
The content recorded on one of the chips was quickly read out, and a light screen was projected - "Chi Jiuyu's Experience in Building the Dao Foundation of Creation"
As the name suggests, this is the experience that Chi Jiuyu wrote down after he built the foundation of the Tao of Creation.
After flipping through it for a while, Zhang Yunlu found that the content was unexpectedly good.
Not only does it describe in detail the various feelings Chi Jiuyu had after establishing his foundation, it also compares them with the experiences written down by other foundation-building practitioners.
The writing is fluent and concise.
how to say……
When many people see this experience, the first thought that comes to their mind is...
Was this really written by my junior uncle?
She wouldn't hire someone to write for her, would she?
But Zhang Yunlu didn't think so.
With a light click, the contents of another crystal card were also projected out, alongside Chi Jiuyu's thoughts.
This time it was not the experience of a certain foundation-building practitioner, but a miscellaneous talk written by an elder of the Dharma Transmission Building after summarizing most of the foundation-building experiences in the Dharma Transmission Building.
Because the content was much more than Chi Jiuyu's, it took her more than an hour to finish reading it.
Without stopping there, Zhang Yunlu took a sip of water and continued to open the book "Three Levels of Foundation Building".
Because they were all books about foundation building, she planned to read them roughly first, compare the contents, and then read them again in detail.
"Theory of Three Levels of Foundation Building", author is unknown, this book tells the origin and practice methods of the three types of foundation building: external objects, natural foundation, and creation by nature.
It is said in the book that in the beginning there were no two ways of building the foundation, namely, external objects and creation. There was only the natural foundation, which was the perfect foundation.
Gathering starlight, sun essence and moon essence is something that every practitioner who wants to build a foundation must go through.
Later, a group of extremely talented practitioners appeared and opened up a further foundation of creation based on the natural foundation of Taoism.
Its essence is the truth that one has realized by oneself, which replaces the effect of "brining tofu with brine" of the rare treasures of heaven and earth, and enables one to gain stronger combat power and longer lifespan.
However, whether it is natural or created by fate, the difficulty of both is too high, resulting in the number of practitioners not increasing.
Therefore, the first batch of practitioners who had built the foundation of the Way of Creation gathered together to discuss and created the "External Object Foundation Building Method" which was less difficult and had a slightly reduced combat power, but could go a step further.
During that period, all kinds of strange and bizarre foundation-building methods emerged in an endless stream.
There is a method of building the foundation of supernatural powers that condenses the seeds of supernatural powers and uses a powerful supernatural power to build the foundation of the Tao.
A method of building a foundation by planting the spirits of heaven and earth in one's body.
There is also the method of building a foundation through hunting demons and absorbing their essence and blood.
However, people later discovered that practitioners who used the demon blood foundation-building method would be affected by the animal nature in the demon blood, and in serious cases would even lose their original intentions, so it has been abolished.
In addition to the demon blood foundation-building method, some more extreme practitioners have also developed an extremely cruel spirit refining foundation-building method.
Peel off thousands of skins, extract tens of thousands of bones, take away souls and refine spirits, nourish them in a pool of blood, and sit in meditation for ninety-nine days to build a foundation.
It was not until later that the ancestor of Jishigu created the Foundation Establishment Pill.
For practitioners who take foundation-building pills to build their foundation, not only will their future be unaffected, but the difficulty will also be much lower than those strange foundation-building methods.
Although the initial combat power is weaker than that of the top practitioners of supernatural powers who have established a foundation, it can be compensated through acquired learning.
In the later stages, the combat power will instead overwhelm those practitioners who have built their foundation with magical powers and only have a single method.
It can be said that the emergence of the Foundation Establishment Pill truly ended that absurd era of foundation-building and creation of laws.
To this day, the more effective foundation-building spiritual liquid used in foundation-building is essentially still an improvement on the foundation-building pill.
"So that's how it is. The foundation-building of creation is to replace the effect of 'the rare treasures of heaven and earth' with the principles you have realized," Zhang Yunlu murmured softly after closing the book. She closed her eyes, "The era of foundation-building and creation..."
Although it was just a few words in the book, she could imagine the cruelty and absurdity of that era.
There was another thing she didn't quite understand: why were the practitioners of the Creation Foundation Establishment so obsessed with increasing the number of practitioners, when it was obvious that a smooth road was right in front of them.
She had always liked to study the history of the ancient cultivation world, and after reading it, she couldn't help but ponder. "Is it because of external enemies?"
It seems that this is the only possibility.
After resting for a while, she turned her attention to "New Edition of the Theory of the Small World of the Human Body".
"How does it feel?"
At this moment, an old voice suddenly came to my ears.
When she looked up, she saw that the old woman she had seen before had come in at some point and was looking at her quietly.
Her wrinkled skin, old face and hunched body made her look no different from an ordinary elderly person.
Zhang Yunlu did not dare to be negligent and quickly stood up and saluted respectfully.
"senior."
"No need to be so polite. How do you feel after reading "The Three Levels of Foundation Building"? " the old woman continued to ask.
How does it feel?
"..." After a moment's silence, she decided to tell the truth, "It was a very absurd but admirable era."
“Absurd…” The old woman smiled. She didn’t look as kind as the sect master, and even looked a little scary. “It was indeed an absurd era.”
"But as you said, there were many admirable people in that era."
The old woman looked up, and unlike her old appearance, her eyes were very bright.
"What kind of truth did you realize?"
The Sword Master brought the little girl back but did not accept her as his disciple, so she became interested.
It's such a waste to leave such a sensible little girl alone.
"disciple……"
"I'm the master of the Dharma Teaching Building. You don't have to be nervous." Perhaps she noticed that she was a little nervous, so the old woman said gently.
"The principle that my disciples have realized is the principle of danger, the meaning of living in the face of death."
The reason for danger?
The meaning of living towards death?
The owner of the Dharma Chuanlou paused, then immediately understood what was going on.
So that's why. No wonder the Sword Master didn't accept him as his disciple.
…………
In the inner sect Sword Ancestor Hall.
Xu Xing seemed to realize something and glanced down.
"It turned out to be Senior Sister Ji..."
When the Sword Sect was founded, in addition to Xu Xing himself and Bie Xue Ning, there were also some like-minded Taoist friends who also practiced swordsmanship.
The old woman who met Zhang Yunlu was one of them.
Because she has lived long enough, she has held most of the positions in the sect except the sect leader.
When Xu Xing was in seclusion, she was not the head of the Dharma Transmission Building, but the head of the Silu Hall.
And she didn't like being in the inner gate, thinking it was too deserted.
Compared to practitioners of her own generation, she prefers to get along with some young practitioners.
I didn’t expect that people would pay attention to Zhang Yunlu now.
Second update, there will be another chapter later
