Chapter 011: Shadow of the Sky Python!
"The virtual is real, the real is virtual, seemingly virtual is not virtual, seemingly real is not real, virtual is also real and real is also fake, fake is also virtual and real and fake is also real."
"The line between the virtual and the real, what is virtual and what is real?"
"Is seeing true, or is seeing not necessarily true?"
When Chen Xuanqing was reading the Nine Voids and Flawless Technique.
Suddenly he remembered the philosophy of his previous life.
Materialism and idealism.
"Which one is real? Materialism and idealism have never been clear, how can I know?"
"No..."
"Think about it from another angle. Aren't idealism and materialism the best answers to this technique?"
"Why do you have to be serious about it?"
"I don't even need to think about it. As long as I believe in idealism, the world described by idealism is real, and the world of materialism is fake."
"Thinking like this, this technique seems a bit too simple."
"Is this really a technique that only the head of the sect can practice?"
Huh!
When Chen Xuanqing realized this, the aura around him changed in an instant.
Become real but not real, virtual but not virtual!
It was like a layer of fog blocking his figure, making it difficult to see his figure, as if he was here, but not here.
"Has it broken through to the second level?"
"This is definitely the simplest technique I have ever practiced, simpler than the introduction to the practice when I just started."
There are ten levels in the Nine Voids and Flawless Technique.
The first level is called: Nine Realities and One Void Realm.
The second level is called: Eight Realities and Two Void Realm.
The third level is called: Seven Realities and Three Void Realm.
And so on.
The ninth level is called: One Reality and Nine Void Realm.
The tenth level is called: No God and No Self Realm.
Chen Xuanqing understood it after a simple look. After unlocking the first level, the following content is even simpler.
Isn't it just fooling people?
What's so difficult about this?
Chen Xuanqing can only say that this is called professional matching.
But don't underestimate this technique. This is only the effect of the first few levels of this technique.
The effect of the last few levels is simply too strong.
Creating illusions to control the five senses is child's play. The tenth level mentioned later completely ignores any attack, which is the most terrifying!
The realm of virtual gods is like a wisp of green smoke. There is neither the world nor the gods. There is no god, no self. Drink the Yellow Spring, forget the self in the world, and the six paths are pure before you can ascend to the immortal world.
Chen Xuanqing slowly closed his eyes, and he began to try to comprehend the state described in the book.
No god, no self.
Forget everything.
If you don't even remember who you are, how can others recognize you?
Since no one recognizes you, you don't exist in the world, and you are beyond the six paths.
Transcend the way of heaven.
At that time, the false will become true.
Chen Xuanqing sat here for several days, and when he opened his eyes, his expression was terrified.
Cold sweat ran down his forehead, and his limbs were even colder and bloodless.
In these few days of comprehension, what he realized was not great freedom and freedom, nor was it virtual and real like me, invincible between heaven and earth.
But...
"Death."
"There is no god and no self, only the dead."
"If you don't enter the netherworld, how can the mortals forget themselves?"
This tenth level is asking people to commit suicide!
No!
This technique can only be practiced for nine levels, and the tenth level must not be practiced!
But no matter what, the insights of these few days have benefited Chen Xuanqing a lot, and even made him have a new understanding of the technique.
"I thought that the virtual beast realm was difficult, but it was not true. The ancestor of all beasts did not understand the principles of monsters, but he could still make the Ten Thousand Beasts Scroll."
"Why do I need to understand the truth?"
"I just think about it, and leave the rest to the way of heaven."
"If I say so, I will break the virtual beast in one day."
Boom! !
After Chen Xuanqing finished speaking, the spiritual energy in his body surged up and outlined the outline of a sky python. After that, the spiritual energy automatically started to operate in its own way.
But in that moment, the shadow of the sky python was constructed by itself!
This time, the shadow was more real than before, and it was vivid, just like a real monster!
It was fifteen long, with a transparent dark black body, and it circled around Chen Xuanqing's body!
Chen Xuanqing waved his hand, and the Sky Python rushed out instantly!
The huge jaws bit directly on the green willow tree in front of the door!
Boom! ! !
With a loud bang, the green willow tree was cut in half by this blow, and the huge body fell to the ground with a bang!
The Sky Python also returned to Chen Xuanqing's side again and circled and sat down.
"Depending on the amount of spiritual energy injected, the destructive power of the beast shadow will also be different. With my spiritual energy, a full-strength attack of the first or second level of Qi training can hit a cultivator in the early stage of foundation building."
Chen Xuanqing smiled, "Qingliu, I'm sorry for you. I will water you more in the future."
No...
Speaking of watering.
Chen Xuanqing suddenly remembered that he seemed to have watered Qingliu last time.
It was last time.
After a while, Chen Xuanqing went to the lake to fetch a bucket of water.
First, I watered the stump of the green willow tree, and then cut off a branch and inserted it directly into the stump.
Although I don’t know if it can grow again, let’s do it this way for now.
Chen Xuanqing clapped his hands and happened to see someone coming to find him.
But when he thought of his left eye, it was a bit weird, so he covered his left eye with his long hair.
The visitor seemed to be an acquaintance, with an elegant temperament, carrying two swords on his back, one ordinary and one with a hidden edge.
Chen Xuanqing was about to speak, but the visitor suddenly spoke first.
"Brother Chen, my name is Jingxu."
Chen Xuanqing blinked, "Brother Tieniu, what are you talking about? Could I have forgotten you?"
Jingxu: "..."
"Ahem, Brother Chen, when I came to see you before, I saw a note on your door saying "Do not disturb during retreat", so I didn't bother to disturb you."
"I just happened to pass by today, so I'll give you something."
Chen Xuanqing was puzzled, "What is it?"
Jingxu opened the storage bag and took out a bunch of spirit stones and pills, as well as two jade slips, "Here are some spirit stones and pills, and two methods to strengthen the foundation."
"Brother Chen, please accept them first, but it's best not to let others know."
Chen Xuanqing showed a puzzled expression, "Brother Tieniu, what do you mean by giving me these things?"
Jingxu's mouth twitched, "Brother Chen, I'm glad you can recognize who I am."
"But can you, call me by my Taoist name?"
Chen Xuanqing nodded, "OK, I remember it."
No, you can't remember it!
Jingxu sighed and continued:
"Seeing that the sect competition is approaching, the master gave me a lot of resources for me to practice, but I can't use them all by myself."
"So I thought of giving you some, so that you can get a good ranking in this ticket competition."
"It is said that the top ten will have rewards, and the top three will have foundation-building pills. This is a good opportunity!"
"The sect competition is held every ten years. Brother Chen, you must seize this opportunity and don't be polite to me!"
Chen Xuanqing looked at the dozens of medium-grade spirit stones in his hand, and then looked at the two exercises he held.
"Spirit Embryo Gong" and "Spirit Containment Technique".
"I don't need these resources for the time being, but I have something to ask you."
"Brother Tieniu, do you know who the old blind man who guards the Yuxian Building is? Is he also an elder in the sect?"
...
