In the present world, the Divine Capital Changluo.
After Chen Qingyu woke up, he hurriedly left the meditation room and went to the courtyard to find his father.
Um?
Chen Zhengxing, who was in the courtyard, turned his head and smiled when he saw him:
Our Shaojun of the Chen Clan, are you finally willing to emerge from the [ Immortal Altar ]?
I thought that after you defeated me, you were going to climb straight to the top.
Chen Qingyu paused for a moment, then scratched his head:
Dad, you knew all along?
certainly.
Chen Zhengxing laughed heartily and said:
The Great Void Primal Spirit personally gave me a hint, saying that my son defeated my former self.
His eyes were filled with satisfaction as he looked at Chen Qingyu.
You're better than I was back then!
Chen Clan Dao Son truly deserves the title.
Chen Qingyu chuckled, walked over, sat opposite him, and casually asked:
Speaking of which, Father, you were also one of those who made it onto the Immortal Heaven Ranking back in the day.
How come you're only Reserve Dao Son?
Do you think everyone is as twisted as you, able to achieve instant success?
To become a true disciple of the Chen Clan Dao Son requires many tedious and rigorous steps, competing with numerous clansmen and eliminating everyone else step by step.
Ultimately, only the sole remaining winner will become the true Dao Son in both legal and practical terms.
Back then, I made a terrible mistake at the very last step, and even my status Reserve Dao Son was stripped away.
He paused, looked at Chen Qingyu, and said in a complicated tone:
You are different; your talent is too terrifying, and your future is unimaginable, which is why the Ninth Ancestor decided to promote you exceptionally, disregarding all clan rules and laws, and making you directly the Daoist Dao Son of the Chen Clan.
This was the first time such a thing had ever happened in the history of the Chen Clan of Changluo.
Chen Qingyu suddenly realized:
So that's how it is.
Chen Zhengxing's eyes flashed, and he said:
Let's not talk about that. Have you ever seen Chang Helie, who was sixth on the Heaven Ranking?
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu couldn't help but give a wry smile:
Of course I've seen it.
Chang Helie's strength was beyond imagination; he was the strongest opponent I had ever seen in my life.
He recalled the scenes he had witnessed at the [ Immortal Altar ], and his tone grew increasingly solemn:
I really can't figure out how to defeat him.
Or rather, I simply can't understand how someone at the Golden Bridge Realm, who also achieved it through the strongest foundation, could possess such exaggerated strength?
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhengxing laughed heartily:
Your thoughts are exactly the same as mine back then!
When I was young, I was also intimidated by his strength. Later, I asked your grandfather and got the answer from him.
Chen Qingyu's expression immediately changed, and he stared intently at Chen Zhengxing:
What's the answer?
Chen Zhengxing's smile faded, and after a moment's hesitation, he spoke:
I've already said this: if you can defeat my younger self, I'll tell you.
Now that you've proven yourself superior to me back then, it's time for me to keep my promise.
He paused for a moment before slowly saying:
You've already reached the Golden Bridge Realm, and you should have long since grasped the path of cultivation through the Four Physical Body Realms, right?
certainly.
Chen Qingyu nodded and said:
The Four Physical Body Realms primarily involve refining and combining the primordial energy of heaven and earth, condensing True Qi, nurturing the body's vitality and blood, and solidifying the foundation.
The four realms of martial arts are: opening the martial veins, Enlightenment acupoints, generating the Blood Sea, and connecting the golden bridge. These four realms advance step by step and are called the way of Martial Dao!
Theories about spiritual practice:
He had mastered it in the clan's elementary school when he was three years old, not to mention that he has practiced it until now, and it is already deeply ingrained in his mind.
Chen Zhengxing remained expressionless and asked in return:
But I must tell you, in the world of Martial Dao, above the Golden Bridge Realm, there is also the Fifth Physical Body Realm!
What?
Chen Qingyu's expression changed, and he said in astonishment:
The Fifth Physical Body Realm?
What Chen Zhengxing said was truly beyond his expectations.
After all, the cultivation of the Four Physical Body Realms is an ironclad rule recognized by all races in the Desolate Continent for hundreds of thousands of years!
There's even a fifth realm?
good!
Chen Zhengxing's gaze was deep as he spoke, enunciating each word clearly:
The cultivation of the Golden Bridge Realm is to cross the Golden Bridge, traverse the Blood Sea, and ascend to the Nine Heavens, reaching the first realm of the [ Four Spirit Origin Realms ]: the Spirit Origin Realm!
This step represents a fundamental transformation—transcending the self, returning to one's innate nature, and grasping the primordial energy!
But have you ever considered that where there is a sea, there is a shore? After crossing the Blood Sea, why does one go straight to the Nine Heavens instead of landing on the shore?
Chen Qingyu frowned, lost in thought, and muttered to himself:
Yeah, why not go ashore?
Chen Zhengxing's words were like a thunderclap, shattering his long-held common sense about cultivation.
Now that we've already traversed the entire Blood Sea, why not go ashore?
His mind was filled with doubt.
Reflecting on his own spiritual practice, he seemed unable to find an answer to this question and could only fall into deep thought.
hehe
Chen Zhengxing softly and slowly said:
This is a question about the essence of spiritual practice, and at your current level, you couldn't figure it out even if you racked your brains.
I'll just tell you the answer directly.
etc!
Chen Qingyu suddenly looked up, his eyes seeming to gleam with divine light, and said, word by word:
I see!
The reason why all living beings cultivate Martial Dao but never reach the shore is because there is no shore to reach!
Chen Zhengxing was stunned for a moment, then stared in disbelief, and subconsciously asked:
How did you guess that?
Chen Qingyu took a deep breath and quickly said:
I was just thinking about a question
Among the Golden Bridge Realm cultivators in the world, their foundational cultivation methods differ greatly, and their Blood Sea are worlds apart. Yet, why is it that the Golden Bridge they ultimately forge can span the Blood Sea and grant them the qualification to travel to the Nine Heavens?
This only shows that the Blood Sea itself is a manifestation of the foundation of Martial Dao, and it varies from person to person.
The shore that corresponds to the Blood Sea Realm is the shore for all living beings; those who cannot even touch that shore are naturally not qualified to set foot on it.
The Blood Sea is the Blood Sea of each person, changing from person to person;
The shore of the Blood Sea Realm corresponds to the universally accepted Martial Dao cultivation system, which is constant and unchanging.
Simply put:
The distance between Martial Dao practitioners and that other shore is infinitely vast.
Each person's Blood Sea varies in size, some as small as streams or rivers, others as large as lakes or oceans.
Even the largest ocean of the Blood Sea cannot fill that one layer of distance; the edge of the Blood Sea is not the shore, so wanting to land is naturally wishful thinking.
Chen Zhengxing paused for a moment before letting out a deep sigh:
That's amazing, truly amazing.
The fact that you could understand this principle in the Golden Bridge Realm means you've already surpassed me by a great deal back then.
His expression was solemn as he spoke in a deep voice:
According to ancient myths and legends, the Fifth Physical Body Realm after the Golden Bridge Realm is named the Divine Shore Realm!
This is an incredible and magnificent realm!
Once one reaches the Divine Shore Realm, there is an immediate transformation, like a fish leaping into a dragon, completely surpassing countless cultivators and stepping into another realm!
From ancient times to the present, those who have achieved the Divine Shore Realm are extremely rare, numbering only a handful!
Without exception, all of these people later became invincible in an era!
