Chapter 286: Dreaming
After putting away the Thousand Spirits Saving People Stele, Li Yuan stretched lazily and went to sleep with a sense of leisurely satisfaction.

The ambush of Chu Xuankong seemed short, but in fact, his spirit was always tense, and he suffered backlash when he activated the Sea-Splitting Black Whale Hammer.

As soon as my mind relaxed, I fell into a deep sleep. Soon, my breathing became light and gentle.

The various breathing techniques he mastered have long become muscle memory, and they are naturally adjusted during sleep. They are the best way to maintain health and heal.

Woo!
Not long after Li Yuan's breathing slowed down, the little mouse poked its head out of the hole in the corner of the wall.

It glanced at Li Yuan cautiously, then ran to the door and tinkered with it, opening a crack in the door.

The little tiger cub walked out of the wind and rain, but there was not a speck of rain on its soft fur. It walked through the muddy road, but was not stained by a bit of it.

There was a layer of invisible energy outside, blocking all rain and dust.

"Snapped!"

He raised his hand and slapped the flattering little mouse into the corner. The little tiger jumped onto the bed, paced back and forth, looking at the sleeping Li Yuan, with some surprise and contemplation in his eyes.

The little mouse was hiding in the corner. Seeing her approaching Li Yuan step by step, he couldn't help but let out a squeak, and was knocked to the ground by the air force.

"Woo~"

Glancing at the fainted creature in the corner, the little tiger cub pondered for a while, then suddenly raised his little paw.
Pointed towards Li Yuan from a distance.

hum~
A faint purple light overflowed from its claws, along with the smoke from the burning incense, and sank into Li Yuan's mouth and nose.

Then she yawned, jumped back to the windowsill and fell asleep.

……

Li Yuan was sleeping soundly, but he also remained alert to the outside world. Vaguely, he seemed to hear the sounds of little mice and tiger cubs.

But he was so sleepy that he was too lazy to open his eyes.

No matter how powerful a warrior is, he needs sleep, it’s just a matter of how much. It not only helps to conserve the spirit, but also helps to detoxify the internal organs.

hum~
Between sleep and wakefulness, Li Yuan felt as if his mind was being pulled by something and drifted to a strange space.

"Um?!"

At a certain moment, Li Yuan suddenly woke up, and the scene in front of him made him stunned.

In front of me is a small island covering an area of ​​about thirty miles. There are grass, trees, mountains, streams, birds and animals on the island.

At first glance, it doesn't seem like much.

But when he looked around, Li Yuan's eyelids couldn't help but twitch wildly. The island was pitch black and there were no stars, sun or moon in the sky.

It was like an isolated island outside the world, but he could see everything clearly.

"Am I dreaming?!"

This thought came to Li Yuan's mind. He was not half asleep. He pinched himself and found that it didn't hurt at all.
"Is this really a dream?"

Li Yuan was a little surprised, but soon calmed down. He looked at the island, and soon his sight fell on the center of the island.

There, stood a bronze tower, nine stories high, but at this moment, the tower was pierced by a big knife shrouded in golden light.

"This place looks a bit like the Mysterious Soldiers Secret Realm?"

Li Yuan forced himself to calm down and tried to analyze:

"Is it the 'god' in the Thousand Spirits Stele who is playing tricks, or is it the two ancestors in the stone tablet?
Could it be a health furnace? With my current talent, it’s not surprising that this furnace would be tempted.”

With thoughts turning over in his mind, Li Yuan felt somewhat horrified. Who wouldn't be shocked to be dragged to such a place in his sleep?

He looked around warily. The vegetation and mountains were picturesque, with birds and animals roaming among them.

Ignoring the dark and eerie surroundings and the bronze tower in the middle of the island, this place looks like a perfectly normal island.

"It really looks like the Mysterious Soldiers Secret Realm, doesn't it?"

Li Yuan grabbed a handful of soil and pulled out some flowers and plants. He found that although this place was not as lifelike as the Xuanbing Secret Realm, to the naked eye, it looked the same as the flowers, plants, soil and rocks in the outside world.

"Is it really a health furnace?"

After wandering around for a while and finding that there was no danger, Li Yuan felt relieved and walked towards the bronze tower.

The bronze tower was already very tall from a distance of more than ten miles. When Li Yuan got closer, he realized that he had underestimated it.

The tower is terrifyingly tall, at least three hundred meters high. What’s even more frightening is the blurry sword.

It penetrates the three-hundred-meter-high tower and goes deep into the ground.

"This knife is at least a thousand meters long?!"

Li Yuan felt a little scared. As he got closer, he could feel a chill that seemed to freeze him.

Li Yuan slowed down his pace and when he was hesitating, he saw a stone tablet under the giant tower.

"Is this really the Mysterious Soldiers Secret Realm?"

Li Yuan looked at the stone tablet and his heart trembled. There were words appearing on the stone tablet, which were actually answering him:
"This is the 'God Realm'."

Divine realm?

Seeing that this stone tablet could be used for communication, Li Yuan was shocked, but he calmed down instead.

Being able to communicate is not a bad thing.

Instead of asking who you are, he asked:

"What is the divine realm?"

"When one's spirit, energy and spirit are cultivated to a certain level, the place that manifests in one's mind is a form of energy and light, which is both real and illusory..."

There is indeed an answer on the stone tablet.

"A place of spiritual light?"

Li Yuan tried to ask.

“…I guess so.”

The stone tablet answered.

"The Land of Spiritual Light..."

Li Yuan looked around, thinking: "What is the use of this place?"

This so-called divine realm was actually visualized?
So, what about the Xuanbing Secret Realm?
"To unite the mind and spirit, to dwell here and nourish the spirit... is the foundation of the temple."

The stone tablet will answer any questions you have.

The unity of mind and body, the foundation of the temple?
Although Li Yuan didn't understand, he wrote it all down. He estimated that this was probably a realm that only a master-level strong man could reach.

After asking and answering, he found that the stone tablet at least did not have any malicious intent on the surface, so he did not speculate on its intentions and asked directly:
"Why did you bring me here?"

"Draw the knife!"

The stone tablet did not hesitate.

"Pull out, pull out this knife?"

Looking at the giant sword that was at least a thousand meters away and that made him feel suffocated when he got close to it, Master Li Dao turned around and left without even asking for any benefits.

"..."On the top of the tower, a woman in white was disheveled in the wind.

Click!

Li Yuan stopped and looked up. The stone tablet fell from the sky and was inserted in front of him:
"It's good!"

"What's the benefit?"

Looking at the stone tablet which was only one foot away from him, Li Yuan frowned as he was sensing the weapon talisman.

He could sense things with the Weaponry Talisman and the Sound Listening Talisman, which made him feel a lot more at ease.

"Gold, silver, martial arts, elixirs, magic weapons, everything."

"……Fine."

What a big pie! Li Yuan complained in his heart and asked:

"How do I draw my sword?"

"Not urgent."

Li Yuan responded, and the stone tablet shook. Under his gaze, it rose from the ground and fell back in front of the bronze tower.

He had good eyesight and was able to read the words above:

"Come again after Tongmai Dacheng."

hum~
Almost at the same time, Li Yuan felt clouds and mist all around him. When he opened his eyes again, the sky was already bright.

In the corner, the little mouse was sleeping soundly. On the windowsill, the little tiger was wagging its tail and basking in the sun leisurely.

"Divine realm, giant tower, broadsword, divine palace."

Li Yuan rubbed his temple. He was pulled into an inexplicable place by an unknown master. This made him feel a little afraid and a little surprised.

He also wanted to learn this method.

“Could it be that the mysterious realm of the Heavenly Luck Mysterious Soldier was also visualized?”

Li Yuan murmured in his heart, but he didn't let his mind run wild. With the Dragon and Tiger Temple behind him, he would naturally ask if he had any questions.

……

After a night, the sky cleared up and the turmoil of last night seemed to have subsided, but the number of patrolling disciples was several times more than before.

There are many dragon and tiger soldiers wearing heavy armor.

Li Yuan went to the library as if nothing had happened. After looking through the books, he actually found some records about the "God Realm".

"The Three Elements are transformed, transcending the mundane world, and the divine realm is achieved."

"The three elements are essence, energy and spirit."

Then, it was gone.

Li Yuan put down the scroll and did not go to the inner building. Instead, he read a few similar books and walked towards the main peak of Longmen.

……

In the small temple, Li Yuan bent over and watched Lao Longtou flipping through his notes. He caught a glimpse of his own portrait on the back wall and the corner of his mouth twitched.

He just thought about it, and this old man actually did it?

You know what, the painting is pretty good...

Arriving at the small temple, Li Yuan felt relieved. He wondered if he should move in temporarily and live with Lao Longtou.
"Um……"

Flipping through his notes, Long Xixiang nodded and smiled from time to time.

Seeing that he was in a good mood, Li Yuan asked about the 'God Realm'.

"Divine Realm?"

Long Xixiang frowned slightly: "You have good talent, but remember not to aim too high. With your current state, knowing these things will do no good."

"Do you have a divine realm?"

Li Yuan asked.

Long Xixiang did not reply, but said:
"The realm of changing shapes is the realm that lays the foundation for martial arts. The number and strength of the combinations of changes in shapes determine the limits of a martial artist's physique.

Afterwards, I will open up my meridians, refine my organs, refine my marrow and exchange my blood, and use various methods to improve myself to this limit."

"...You seem to have said that before."

Li Yuan reminded at the right time.

Long Xixiang ignored him and said to himself:

"The change of form is the body, the unblocking of meridians is the qi, the combination of the two can refine the organs and change the blood, and only by penetrating the yin and yang can one touch the 'spirit'."

"Grandmaster is not a state, nor is entering the Dao. These are just titles used by people in the martial arts world. According to us, this state is called 'Spiritual Form'."

Divine form!

Li Yuan repeated it in his mind.

"The energy enters the brain and outlines the divine form. At this point, the person is like a god or demon, and all forms follow to destroy cities and break armies."

Long Xixiang did not elaborate, but only mentioned it in a few words:

"The wonder created by taking the divine form as the root and absorbing the energy of the heavenly and earthly evil spirits is called the 'divine realm'!"

"The Divine Realm... is it the same as the Health Preservation Secret Realm?"

Li Yuan asked.

"more or less."

Long Xixiang nodded.

"Then what happens if the divine realm is damaged?"

Li Yuan's heart moved.

"will die."

"Master, you..."

Li Yuan wanted to ask more, but Long Xixiang was already a little impatient. He flicked his sleeves and blew him out of the small temple. This kid really hit him right in the heart.

"I haven't finished asking yet."

Looking at the tightly closed temple door, Li Yuan, whose curiosity was aroused, felt very uncomfortable.

However, although Lao Longtou spoke vaguely, he could vaguely understand the meaning of his words.

"Is it related to the immortals on earth? This is a big deal."

Tightening his Taoist robe, Li Yuan decided to move to the small temple today. Since the old dragon head wouldn't let him in, he would just build a thatched hut outside the temple.
