Condensing the Brain Deity
The advanced stage of the "Lamp Kindling Spirit Transformation Chapter" involves "Spirit Kindling" of all the acupoints throughout the body.
The so-called "Spirit Kindling" refers to using the bright flame of a spirit lamp as a guide to invigorate 365 key points one by one, causing them to condense into Spirit Seed and spontaneously generate divine spirits.
This is actually the spirit of the body, the spiritual embodiment of the various organs of the human body, and the supreme method of cultivating both body and spirit.
The * Seven Slips from the Cloudy Satchel * states. "When one aperture is opened, all apertures are opened; where the spiritual fire ignites, all gods pay homage."
At the Spirit Kindling initiation, a primary acupoint must be selected as the guide.
In this world, cultivation involves the concepts of the Essence Aperture, the Qi Aperture, and the Divine Aperture. The Essence Aperture belongs to the essence, which is the source of the body's qi and blood, the foundation of the physical form, and is responsible for storing primordial qi. Key points for this include the kidney acupoint, the gate of life (mingmen), and the gate of the waist (guanyuan).
The Qi Aperture belong to Qi, serving as the pivot for breathing and the circulation of true breath, such as the Tanzhong, Tiantu, and Qihai acupoints; the Divine Aperture belong to Shen, being the abode of the mind and spirit, such as the Niwan, Yintang, and Baihui acupoints.
For those who focus on physical training, such as strongmen, the first choice should be the Essence Aperture, starting with the kidney acupoint; for martial artists, the focus should be on the Qi Aperture, with the chest as the pivot, to absorb the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to complete the circulation of qi.
Lin Xu is a cultivator who cultivates both essence and qi, but prioritizes the Divine Aperture.
With a slight thought, his consciousness focused on the ancestral Divine Aperture between his eyebrows, known as the "Heavenly Eye," which is both the gateway for his mind and the mirror reflecting the myriad gods.
Within his sea of consciousness, the spiritual lamp flickered slightly, its flames converging towards a point between his brows, blazing like the rising sun.
A slight tremor ran through the ancestral aperture, and a clear, resonant sound spread from within the skull, like a morning bell or evening drum, penetrating directly to the Baihui point and reaching the Niwan point, causing the entire sea of consciousness to resonate.
Spirit Kindling burst forth from between his brows, transforming into a slowly rotating phantom of a blue lotus. Seated within the lotus heart was a three-inch-tall deity. The deity's eyes were slightly open, reflecting Lin Xu's true form. A slight smile played on its lips.
The god suddenly raised his hand and lightly touched Lin Xu's brow. Lin Xu immediately felt his mind become clear and clean, and fragments of past memories floated up and down. Even the memories of his past life, which had been blurred, became as clear as ever.
"So much time has passed..." A trace of melancholy appeared on Lin Xu's face as he recalled the memories of his past life that had faded away.
In the blink of an eye, past memories were organized one by one according to the timeline and gathered in the library of the sea of consciousness.
The memory palace is a memory construction method proposed by a master in a past life, and it is a superpower that Mortal can only dream of.
Now that his Divine Aperture are complete, such miracles that Mortal look up to are nothing more than a trivial skill for him, which he can accomplish with a mere thought.
Rows of bookshelves appeared on the dome of the Knowledge Sea Library, each volume bound together with memories as pages and time as thread. These included cutting-edge scientific achievements seen unintentionally in a past life, certain technological concepts based on scientific principles, and even long-forgotten childhood doodles—all information was logically categorized and automatically indexed.
Lin Xu's consciousness landed on the newly formed Azure Lotus Divine Being, which is the spiritual embodiment of the human brain, the spiritual hub of all acupoints in the brain, and governs all phenomena in the sea of consciousness.
Concentrating the Brain Deity signifies that his Soul Refining cultivation has entered a completely new stage, reversing the development of the human body, exercising the brain's potential, developing wisdom, and thus widening the gap between him and Mortal.
He opened his personal panel and was delighted to find that his Wisdom Art had reached the expert level, and his Intelligence attribute had reached 20 points.
"No wonder I feel like my brain has suddenly become much better; it's turned into a biological computer..." He tried to do a 5-digit multiplication problem in his mind and got the accurate answer almost instantly.
Public information released by the Night Watchers organization on the Spirit Realm Forum shows that among the adventurer's personal attributes, 10
The score is the standard value, and those who can reach 15 points are one in ten thousand among ordinary people.
20 is a special number, representing that the human body has broken through the limits of mortals in some aspect and begun to transform into Legendary creature.
At this stage, professionals can easily accomplish some achievements that seem unbelievable to Mortal. For example, once an agility-based professional reaches 20 points in their main agility attribute, they can easily parry machine gun fire with melee weapons.
Having tested his progress in cultivation, Lin Xu stopped with satisfaction, preparing to enter meditation again to consolidate his gains.
After enlightening the Brain Deity, he needs a period of time to reflect before he can enlighten it again. The human body is a complex structure, and a change in one part can affect the whole. Time is needed to counteract this chain reaction.
"Hmm?" Lin Xu's eyes flickered, and he subconsciously looked out of the cave.
"Chirp chirp~ (Hurry up, over here, over here, there's a group of ugly monsters here...)" Qiuqiu waved its tentacles, excitedly directing Evil Eye to look into the depths of the mist and eliminate the horde of evil creatures lingering on the edge of the territory.
With the addition of these Evil Eye Dharma Protector to the extermination operation, it was as if a bomber squadron had been added to the sky, and the monsters that spawned in Azure Cloud Mountain were immediately in deep trouble.
Besides the monsters having the opportunity to join the Black Tiger Demon's newly established demon army as a patrol team, other monsters...
It's eerie; once discovered, it will be met with a swift and decisive blow.
"Chirp chirp~ (Working hard for my master)" Qiuqiu chirped, its three Evil Eye wide open, completely unaware that its magic power had quietly returned to full.
An Evil Eye Dharma Protector was diligently drawing Spiritual Qi from the air to replenish itself, its large eyeballs constantly scanning the dark mist, trying to find a new target.
The eerie mist dissipated from view, revealing a dense mass of white bones.
"Chirp chirp~ (Monster detected)"
"Buzz~"
Another Soul Shock Blast erupted in the distant mist, and a series of Source Fire Fragment transformed into streaks of light, rushing rapidly toward the cave.
Grabbing a glimpse of this scene by chance, Qiuqiu raised its tentacles and subconsciously touched its smooth forehead. "Chirp~"
(Why are there so many?)
"Boom~"
Another Mind Shock Blast, and a few seconds later, more than a dozen Source Fire Fragment were released.
This illogical scene startled Qiuqiu. It instinctively looked towards the area where the Evil Eye was casting its spell, and immediately shuddered, its chubby body nearly crashing. "Chirp~ (You idiot! I told you to hunt in the wild, and you actually attracted a whole horde of monsters!)"
The dungeon lord gazed at the tranquil hills in the Demon Fly's field of vision, his burning gaze gleaming beneath his heavy helmet.
Right here, fragments of information pulsating in the air still bear traces of the past; the seemingly calm Earth Vein contains the lingering echoes of the disturbance that occurred not long ago.
But at that moment, a Mind Blast suddenly exploded in the advancing horde of monsters. Where the Soul Shock Blast, the soul fire of more than a dozen skeleton soldiers was extinguished, and they instantly scattered into a pile of bones, which fell to the ground with a "clatter".
The dungeon lord was slightly startled. "Where are the enemies?"
In the once orderly group of skeletons, a blank space with a diameter of ten to twenty meters appeared. The skeletons around it were lying scattered and their soul flames were trembling violently, clearly indicating that they had suffered severe damage.
