[Thunder Ancestor Dao Scene] [Realm of the True Altar Guarding the One] [True Realm of the Mind]
He finally realized the gap between himself and the other four. Even though he was a Supreme Yang Sword Cultivator with a bright future, he was still far inferior to them in terms of talent.
Xu Xuan smiled without saying anything at Li Mingxi's sigh, but a look of surprise flashed across his face at Li Fan's suggestion.
This is a system he developed over a long period of time within the [Thunder Ancestor Dao Scene] based on the methods of construction, resulting in such a complete system.
Since the founder Li Fan, actually said there were still things to be revised, he naturally listened attentively.
"Buzhen, please speak."
Xu Xuan said that, he naturally didn't stand on ceremony and said directly:
"We are still lacking spiritual plants and grand formations for the Thunder Qi Dao. Regardless of the type of inner space, maintaining internal self-sufficiency is the first and crucial step."
"Spiritual plants, as the most fundamental regulating and detoxifying system of the entire space, are indispensable no matter what."
"Even if Pijie Brother Bijie doesn't cultivate First Tier lightning qi spiritual plant, it doesn't matter; at least a lightning qi spiritual plant at the Qi Refining level should be involved."
"The other core control array can also regulate the distribution of spiritual energy and the flow of energy within the entire space, as well as extraordinary climate changes, which is equally important."
As the three listened to Li Fan's eloquent explanation, they were all filled with admiration. The path of the Inner Scene Earth Immortal was complex and difficult to explain, involving many techniques. Even though they each had their own opportunities, they still had their own shortcomings.
After Li Fan finished speaking, he took a sip of [Blood Spirit Wind Tea] to restore his condition.
After listening, Xu Xuan solemnly cupped his hands in greeting:
"Thank you for your Buzhen Brother Xu Xuan. I will remember it!"
Li Fan waved his hand to indicate that it was nothing to worry about, then looked at the [Realm of the True Altar Guarding the One] created by Zhang Longhu.
Within this space, except for the very core area, the surrounding world is entirely the mortal realm.
Countless wild beasts and spiritual plants struggle against the heavens and earth here, evolving the natural law of the survival of the fittest.
At the core, enveloped by clusters of true spiritual energy, stood a magnificent six-story octagonal altar, where countless spells were performed. Even the illusory light he conjured with his spells possessed a sense of real and natural truth.
Within, a primordial True Qi transformed into a faceless Daoist priest to suppress the altar, evolving true nature, creating the material world, and gradually expanding space and opening up heaven and earth.
Even Li Fan found the peculiar interior design strangely real.
There were no humans, no extraordinary beings, only the natural growth and evolution of all things. Even the illusory shadows formed by the light of the Dharma possessed a certain realism.
Li Fan observed for a long time before withdrawing his gaze, giving Zhang Longhu a deep look, before slowly saying:
"Zhenwu's [Realm of the True Altar Guarding the One] has already transcended the framework of inner landscape cultivation. Forgive my low cultivation level, I really can't see anything there and can't offer any useful advice!"
Zhang Longhu laughed heartily, raised his spirit wine, and clinked glasses with Li Fan, showing no sign of blame.
"Buzhen Brother Buzhen, there's no need to blame yourself. The path of True Qi is rare and difficult to cultivate. Before me, there was only one Dao Foundation senior. Let me explain the mysteries behind it slowly."
"The Way of True Qi originated from the Demonic Trial Illusion of the Five-Colored Demon King. It advocates seeing through illusions and delusion, seeing one's true self, anchoring to reality, and returning to one's original nature."
Therefore, in theory, one can use True Qi techniques to evolve the world and bring about all that is real.
"Where does True Qi come from? Everything in this world we inhabit is real, and everything can be refined into True Qi."
"However, Primordial Qi nourishes life, it needs to be easy to refine, so there's no need to painstakingly refine that little bit of True Qi matter."
"The idea for [Realm of the True Altar Guarding the One] originated from this."
"The altar can be used to develop countless techniques, containing the principles of heaven and earth. Any technique cast within it will naturally respond to the outside world, as if one were to directly control the entire space."
"That six-tiered octagonal altar is called the Ancestral Altar of Ten Thousand Dharmas."
"I do not ask these beings to make offerings to me; I only ask that little bit of truth in their spirits, to purify and refine the true essence of my being."
"Thus, I take the Qi of my true self as my guide, and thus, as the master of this world, I create all things, open up space, and also seek a wisp of True Qi from the void. The greater the world, the truer the True Qi, the more complete the true nature, and my Dao returns to its origin."
Everyone who heard this was deeply shocked and filled with boundless curiosity about this peculiar lineage of cultivation.
Li Fan praised:
"To discern the truth within illusion, Zhenwu Brother Zhenwu is truly a master cultivator!"
From this discourse, Xu Xuan glimpsed the deficiencies in his own Thunder Qi Dao and discovered a way to further improve it:
"Brother Zhenwu nature and the true way; I am no match for him!"
Li Mingxi was also inexplicably moved, but didn't know how to express it, only saying:
Me too!
Zhang Longhu raised his glass of spirit wine and toasted with everyone, displaying a carefree and unrestrained demeanor.
They then changed the subject and began discussing how each party could initially develop the interior space.
This was precisely Li Fan's forte, he reminded everyone:
"My three senior brothers and junior brothers, you must have thought this through by now, but I must Buzhen you again: the blood sacrifice method concerns your lives, so please think it through carefully."
"If the inner space changes in the future, or is destroyed, or collapses, the damage will be no less than that of the destruction of one's natal magic weapon, and there may be no possibility of further progress."
He then began to explain to everyone how to use the blood sacrifice method to refine the spatial core.
"I will bring you all the necessary spiritual objects, materials, and spatial artifacts, and then extract a little bit of your original essence blood to establish a blood sacrifice array. I will then control the array by inscribing it at the core of the space, and only under the witness of the Blood Qi Law will this effect be achieved."
"The basic array diagram of the Blood Sacrifice Array will be given to you later. If it conflicts with your own cultivation path, you may change it."
"You must design the formation yourselves to control it; this is a matter of life and death, so do not let anyone else see it."
"Finally, the Blood Qi Law must be used as a witness; come to my Spirit Mountain Cave for a blood sacrifice."
"This is not something I want to do myself, but a blood sacrifice technique, a core skill of Blood Qi Dao cultivators. Other Dao cultivators can only benefit from it if they attain the Blood Qi Fruit Realm."
After he finished speaking, everyone fell into deep thought, and they began to deduce the logic behind his words.
They trusted Li Fan, but since it involved their lives, they had to be extremely cautious.
Xu Xuan deduced from [Thunder Ancestor Dao Scene] and arrived at a similar result, so he was relieved.
Zhang Longhu mainly experienced it firsthand in the [True Realm of the Mind] and indeed found that without the Blood Qi Dao Formation, this method was completely ineffective.
The two immediately nodded in agreement; Li Mingxi, however, scratched his head, puzzled.
They then began discussing the initial planning for the interior space, a crucial step that required Li Fan's approval before implementation could begin.
They can then carry out the more distant expansion plans in the second and third phases on their own.
