Simultaneous travel: I am proving the great way in the heavens.

Chapter 458: Can the spirit and soul be held together without separation? Can one be as gentle as a baby by concentrating on the energy?

The fifth level of Lianxu Hedao's cultivation may seem unremarkable at first glance. After all, above this, Luofu also conceived the realm of the Five Innates.

However, the flaws in the way of heaven during the era of Shrouding the Sky made Luofu the most buggy existence in the current era.

Taking the innate Qi symbolized by life energy as the foundation of cultivation, cultivators of the Luotian Fa system, even in this era of Zhatian when the Heavenly Dao is imperfect, cultivators who have reached the ninth level of Lianxu Hedao can also easily reach the lifespan of the Supreme in the Perfect Law in the era of Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, or even surpass the lifespan of the Supreme.

The so-called refining the void and merging with the Dao, for other practitioners of the Shrouding Heaven Method, is the merging of one's own Dao, but for Luofu, it is the Dao and principles of the Twelve Heavens that he shares.

In the entire system of Covering the Sky, theoretically, before the realm of the Five Innate Realms, it has almost reached the same level as Covering the Sky. If one can follow the steps, he or she can really catch up with the footsteps of Luofu, the founder, and eventually reach the ninth level of the immortal platform comparable to the Great Emperor of Enlightenment, that is, the ninth level of refining the void and merging with the Tao.

Although Luofu is stuck on the fifth heaven now, this is only because he has not yet completed the complete localization of all shared power. Otherwise, according to Luofu's estimation, he may not be able to reach the Red Dust Immortal in one step.

But for the ninth level of refining the void and merging the Dao, which is comparable to that of the Great Emperor who has attained the Dao, there will be no bottleneck period.

The Heaven-Covering Method, at the Immortal Stage Realm, can almost be regarded as going through the previous system again. It is a process of completely transforming the previously practiced techniques into an Emperor's Scripture that is unique to oneself.

Before reaching the Immortal Stage Realm, the Heaven-Covering Method does not involve the cultivation of the six internal organs, but in the Immortal Stage Realm, everything is arranged.

Luofu's Luotian method is different from the Zhatian method in its conception. In the stage of refining the spirit and returning to the void before refining the void and merging with the Dao, one uses one's own innate Qi to create oneself out of nothing. It can be said that refining the spirit and returning to the void is a very critical stage in the Luotian method.

This is why, in the Art of Covering the Sky, the two major realms that correspond to refining the spirit and returning to the void are the Four Extremes Secret Realm and the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm.

The truth is, refining the spirit and returning to the void is really too important for the Luotian method system. This stage almost determines whether one can successfully reach the ninth heaven when refining the void and merging with the Tao in the future, which is equivalent to the possibility of becoming a great emperor.

If the Heaven-Covering Method is easy first and then difficult, and gradually reaches the stage of becoming a Great Emperor, then the Heaven-Locking Method is to break down the process of easy first and then difficult, forming a process of easy first, then difficult, and then easy again.

Compared to the importance of refining the spirit and returning to the void, even the final refining of the void and merging with the Tao is not that important.

Of course, this doesn't mean that refining the void and merging with the Dao are really unimportant. Quite the contrary. You know, no matter whether it is the method of covering the sky or the method of Luotian created by Luofu, the so-called cultivation is by no means as simple as I thought, but an extremely delicate process. This process, no matter how large-scale the scientific experiment is, cannot be compared with it.

Although Luofu, who had surpassed the stage of refining the spirit and returning to the void, also realized that this realm division might not be so accurate, Luofu had no intention of modifying these problems himself.

Just as Emperor Huang Tian erased the last two layers when he spread the idea of ​​using one's body as a seed, to prevent his own path from becoming an obstacle to future generations, Luo Fu did the same.

If he made the Luo Tian Fa too sophisticated and did not allow for any tampering, it would instead become an obstacle for later Luo Tian Fa practitioners.

To use a not-so-appropriate metaphor to describe it, within the framework of a system, the founder only needs to make the most critical settings. Just plant the seeds and grow a trunk, then how the branches on the trunk grow depends on the successors themselves.

Don’t forget that in the universe of Shrouding the Sky, the Emperor’s Scripture, which is known as the most powerful method, is not the scripture written by those famous emperors who have attained the Dao, ancient emperors, and celestial masters, but the Taoist Scripture, which is the most basic method.

It is precisely because of its foundation that the Dao Sutra is not so powerful in all aspects, but it also makes it the best foundation-building method. After practicing it for a while, you can change the entrance hall at will.

It is precisely this panacea-like characteristic that makes the Taoist scriptures a method that many great emperors who have attained enlightenment feel ashamed of.

The Luotian Method that Luofu wanted to create did not require him to consider all aspects for his successors. He only needed to provide a practical and obvious precedent.

Then in the world of Zhatian Universe where the Way of Heaven is certain, there will naturally be a large number of followers who, relying on their own wisdom and talent, will embark on the Luotian system and step by step strengthen this system until it is strong enough to compete with Zhatian, or even one day surpass the Zhatian system.

This is not impossible, because the inherent deficiencies of the Heaven-Covering Method are too strong.

In the final analysis, the so-called Heaven Covering Method is an extension of the technique. Its source is a technique developed by Emperor Huang Tian to tap into one's own potential. It regards oneself as a small world equal to the outside world, opens one's own "door", and eventually keeps pace with the universe, or even surpasses it.

This idea is naturally unique for a strong man like Emperor Huang Tian who has almost reached the end of the perfection method, but it is not so friendly to his successors.

Look at the trio from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths era to the Shrouding Heaven era, Ye Hei, Hen Ren and Emperor Wu Shi. Although they finally reached a similar realm as Emperor Huang Tian, ​​Chu Feng and others, before that, their cultivation process was much more difficult than that of the past Nine Heavens and Ten Earths era and the future Holy Ruins era. This is enough to prove that the Shrouding Heaven method itself has inherent deficiencies.

Who made the use of one's body as a seed? It was created by Emperor Huang Tian in order to preserve the spark of cultivation for all living beings after the perfect law became a dead end?
It can be said that at that time, Emperor Huang Tian himself did not have the time to perfect the system of using his body as a seed.

Although the three members of the Shrouding Heaven group were extremely talented and intelligent, the flaws in the Shrouding Heaven method itself forced them to take a very difficult path from the very beginning.

Especially since the Way of Heaven in the Shrouding Heaven Universe is flawed and even the Great Emperor only has a short lifespan of ten thousand years, this further limits the possibility for countless powerful and talented people to forge a path of their own.

In the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Era and the Holy Ruins Era, the number of supreme beings and Hunyuan realm masters who were comparable to the Great Emperor of Enlightenment was indeed stronger than that of Zhatian in terms of horizontal time, but was far less than that of Zhatian in terms of vertical time.

The lifespan limit of ten thousand years makes the Zhatian Universe just like a giant Gu cauldron. If the strong men who have achieved the Dao Emperor cannot find the way to become immortals, they will be trapped and die in the Gu cauldron, which will change rapidly from generation to generation without rest.

In this endless cycle, in vertical comparison, from the time when Emperor Huangtian was dominating the world for eternity to the opening of the future Holy Ruins Era, the number of emperors who have attained enlightenment is enough to surpass the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Era and the Holy Ruins Era.

If possible, I believe that no practitioner of the Zhatian Fa would want his or her path of cultivation to be as cruel as that of a poisonous insect.

An elimination mechanism whereby those who fail to advance will die.

Countless cultivators with extraordinary talents and abilities have lost the possibility of further advancement. In the short life span of ten thousand years of the Emperor, there are too many things to do in the Shrouding Heaven Universe.

Guard against the supreme being in the forbidden zone of life, leave your own legacy, and try your best to explore the direction of further stepping into the immortal path...

A series of events left Emperor Zhengdao with insufficient time to complete further exploration within the limited time of ten thousand years.

Don’t look at the fact that in the era of Shrouding the Heaven, Emperor Henren, Ye Hei and Emperor Wu Shi, including Duan De, the Heavenly Lord who transcends tribulations, all successfully stepped into the realm of immortality.

But in fact, the four of them are not creatures of the same era.

The most ancient one is the Lord of Heaven who transcends tribulations. He is an antique who entered the era of covering the sky from the era of nine heavens and ten earths. Even the Emperor was a disciple of the second generation of the Lord of Heaven who transcends tribulations, the Lord of the Underworld.

Following closely behind was the Henren Emperor. One must know that when Ye Hei and others set foot in Beidou, the Henren Emperor had already been a legend for tens of thousands of years. Even the Wushi Emperor ranked behind the Henren Emperor.

Ye Hei is undoubtedly the last one.

It can be said that the four of them almost lasted throughout the entire era of Shrouding the Heavens.

In such a cruel competition like raising a snake, since the time when Emperor Huang Tian ruled the world for eternity, until the end of the future era of Shrouding the Sky and the opening of the Holy Ruins, there have been only four of them who have stood out from this cruel competition.

Just from this point, it is enough to make people feel the cruelty of the Heaven-Covering Law.

As for Luofu, the Heaven-Covering Method he created and the increase in lifespan brought about by the realm of Refining the Void and Harmonizing the Dao are enough to give those emperors who have attained the Dao, for whom a lifespan of ten thousand years is as simple as being born in the morning and dying in the evening, more time to break through the realm of Refining the Void and Harmonizing the Dao and step into the realm of the innate five elements.

When Luo Fu spreads his Luo Tian Fa, perhaps ordinary Zha Tian Fa practitioners will still be wary and hostile towards Luo Tian Fa, but the supreme beings in the Life Forbidden Zone, or those old monsters who are about to die, will surely understand what an incredible inheritance Luo Tian Fa that came out of nowhere is.

After consolidating his own cultivation to the fifth level of Lianxu Hedao.

After completing the retreat in Luofu, the next step is to complete the localization of shared power, which is no longer something that can be accomplished in just sitting in retreat.

The great saintly slave who had welcomed Luofu into the ancient forbidden land seemed to have no idea how long he had been waiting.

The Holy Body's later years were ominous, which resulted in the Great Holy Body in front of him. As he approached old age, he had to voluntarily trap himself in an ancient forbidden land, and even had his body wrapped in bronze chains that acted as if to restrain himself.

With that red-haired appearance, there is no trace of the awe-inspiring majesty of the Ninth Generation Holy Body.

The curse of the Holy Body can be solved by the future Ye Hei, but the current Luo Fu can also solve this curse by relying on his own shared abilities and the special nature of Luo Tian Fa.

However, for the holy body in front of him with red hair all over his body, lifting the curse is meaningless.

Because to a certain extent, the red-haired monster in front of him is no longer a truly independent life.

Luo Tian Fa is based on the innate Qi which symbolizes the life activity itself.

Although the Great Holy Body has activities, it is not a complete life. Just like in the alien world, whether it is animals, plants, or even fungi, bacteria, viruses, etc., they all have their own Qi activities.

But the key to being able to refine Qi is not as simple as possessing Qi. Possessing Qi is only a prerequisite. In the world of extraordinary people, with a global population of seven or eight billion, the number of innate and acquired extraordinary people combined is only one in a few tens of thousands.

Ordinary people also have Qi, but they cannot sense it, let alone use it.

This is determined by nature and fate.

As for the Great Holy Body, it now only has life but no sex, or it can be said that its sex is so weak that it can be ignored.

In this case, even if Luo Fu taught the other party the Luotian Fa, the other party might not be able to practice it. Even if he was lucky enough to get started, it would be like the Dujie Tiangong of Dujie Tianzun. It would be a new individual after the emperor's corpse was connected to the spirit, and it might not even be as good as the emperor's corpse.

After taking a look at the Great Holy Body, Luo Fu understood in an instant that, as Huang Nu's Great Holy Body, it was apparently waiting for him to wake up from seclusion.

Needless to say, there is only one person who made him do this, and that is the current owner of the ancient forbidden land, the ruthless emperor.

The ruthless emperor who was in the process of transformation would let the Great Saint Body wait for Luofu's retreat to end. It was obvious that he had sensed something from the movement of Luofu practicing Luotian Fa.

Without delay, Luofu stood up and walked towards the Great Holy Body. The Great Holy Body also turned around mechanically and took the initiative to lead Luofu to the place where the Henren Emperor was in seclusion and transformation.

On the way to the place where the ruthless emperor was in seclusion, Luofu also felt that the ancient forbidden land was indeed worthy of being the famous life forbidden zone. This feature of being able to absorb the essence of life was not only a huge DEBFF for the practitioners of the Zhatian method, but even for Luofu, who had now cultivated the Luotian method to the fifth level of the Lianxu Hedao, it was a huge trouble.

The innate Qi itself is the foundation of Luo Tian Fa. The Luo Tian Fa system is built on the innate Qi that symbolizes the movement of life.

It just so happens that the special environment of the ancient forbidden land, with its particularity of absorbing life essence, is what Luo Tianfa hates the most.

Before practicing Luo Tianfa to the stage of refining the spirit and returning to the void, any Luo Tianfa cultivator who rashly sets foot in the ancient forbidden land is simply playing with his own life.

If something goes wrong, it will completely cut off your possibility of making further progress.

But in a flash, Luofu once again appeared at the place where the ruthless emperor was in seclusion and transformation.

Luo Fu felt at a glance the extremely familiar power fluctuation coming from the ruthless emperor.

That was not the power fluctuation of the Zhutian system, but a more pure force that was closer to life activities themselves.

Compared with the power of the Zhatian system, this kind of power is more in line with Luofu's Luotian method.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and Luo Fu asked in surprise: "Emperor, what are you doing..."

"You have found a real smooth path to heaven." At this moment, the eyes of the ruthless emperor were unusually smart under the bronze mask.

There was not a trace of the sluggishness that one felt when one was barely waking up during the previous transformation stage.

A surge of vitality made the ruthless emperor look like a newborn baby at this moment.

Can one embrace the spirit and soul and keep it as one without separation? Can one concentrate the energy and make it soft like a baby? Can one cleanse the mysterious mirror without any flaws?

At this moment, the ruthless emperor had apparently reached this state.
