Nine Transformations of the True Spirit.

Chapter 120 True Spirit Nine Transformations Dharma Body Dual Cultivation
On the jade wall, golden runes were shining brightly. Their shapes were strange, like dragons and snakes flying in the sky, or tigers and leopards lying down. They were not any of the characters that Chen Yuan recognized.

But Chen Yuan could understand the true meaning of it at a glance. Every word was precious and mysterious.

This set of skills is called "Nine Transformations of the True Spirit" and, like "Demon God Technique", is a physical cultivation technique.

But compared with it, "The Art of the Demon God" is like the fluorescence of rotten grass or the bright moon in the sky.

The Demon God Secret can only be cultivated to the late Nascent Soul stage at most, but the Nine Transformations of the True Spirit is aimed directly at overcoming the tribulation. If one can practice it to the ultimate level, one can cultivate an immortal golden body, ascend to the fairyland, live as long as the heaven and earth, and shine as brightly as the sun and the moon.

It was also today when Chen Yuan viewed the jade disc that he came to know that the levels of cultivation, from low to high, are divided into Qi refining, foundation building, Dan formation, Nascent Soul, Spirit transformation, Void refining, body fusion, Mahayana, and tribulation transcendence.

Going further up, you will ascend to become an immortal and achieve eternal life.

"Nine Transformations of the True Spirit" touches upon the path to immortality, and the difficulty of cultivation is extremely high, requiring the true spirit's essence and blood to be refined into the body.

According to the jade disc, the true spirit is the spirit of heaven and earth born with the three thousand great ways, such as the true dragon, heavenly phoenix, black tortoise, white tiger, red bird, etc., which can be compared with the true immortals. Even the Mahayana cultivators are not their opponents.

However, although true spirits are born from heaven and earth, they still have seven emotions and six desires, and the number of their own kind is extremely small, so they often combine with other living beings to give birth to bloodline offspring.

These descendants inherited the essence of the true spirit and were extremely powerful. They were often invincible at the same level and had unlimited potential. Some of them could even transcend bloodline restrictions and ascend to the fairyland.

Over time, these descendants of the true spirits multiplied and gradually became a clan of monsters, spread throughout the heavens and all realms. The true spirit blood in their bodies became increasingly thin, until it was almost negligible.

But the true spirits are powerful, traveling through all realms and giving birth to endless offspring. Among the monsters and beasts, there are always those with strong true spirit bloodlines.

The goal of "Nine Transformations of the True Spirit" is to hunt down the descendants of the true spirit, refine their essence and blood into the body, and contain the power of the true spirit. When one reaches a high level, one can transform into the true spirit's appearance, or even change the true spirit's body. It is not difficult to fight against the true spirit.

This method is so advanced that it is certainly different from ordinary physical cultivation methods.

The true spirit is born with the great way of heaven and earth. It does not just cultivate the physical body. It is born with the ability to master Taoism.

Those who practice this method can be called the dual cultivation of Dharma and body. Every time you refine a kind of true spirit essence and blood, you contain a kind of true spirit power, and naturally you can master the supernatural powers of this kind of true spirit. You can also control magic weapons and practice the hundred arts of cultivation like ordinary cultivators.

"Nine Transformations of the True Spirit" points directly to the great way. It is extremely mysterious and powerful, and the difficulty of practicing it is unimaginable.

According to what is written on the jade disk, those who practice this method, if they want to break through a realm, must first refine a kind of true spiritual essence and blood.

Chen Yuan is now a foundation-building cultivator. If he practices this method and wants to break through to the Jindan stage, he must first find a kind of true spiritual essence and blood and absorb it into his body. The same goes for every realm thereafter.

The descendants of true spirits are hard to find, and their strength is extremely powerful, often invincible at the same level.

If one is unlucky, one may never find the descendants of the true spirit in one's lifetime, or even if one finds them, they may not be their match and it will be useless.

In order to cultivate to the point of overcoming tribulation, one needs to refine eight kinds of true spiritual essence and blood, and each is different, which is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

In addition, if one wishes to refine the essence and blood of the true spirit, the body must be extremely strong. Otherwise, it will not be able to withstand the power of the essence and blood of the true spirit, and the body will collapse, leading to certain death.

These two points are the biggest difficulties in practicing "Nine Transformations of the True Spirit", but other than that, there are no other bottlenecks.

If Chen Yuan practices this method, although he cannot break through to the Jindan stage without refining a kind of true spirit essence and blood, as long as his physical body is strong enough, he can increase his cultivation until it reaches the same realm as his physical body.

Moreover, he has the jade beads in his hand, so there are ways to overcome these two difficulties.

According to Yu Bi, the starlight attracted by Yu Jue is the power of the stars in the sky, which is the legendary essence of the sun and the moon, and can continuously strengthen the body and soul.

The jade pendant also has a wonderful use, which is the ability to sense the true spirit bloodline.

Chen Yuan is now in the early stage of foundation building. Holding the jade bead, if there are descendants of the true spirit within a thousand feet radius, the jade bead will sense it and inform him, greatly reducing the difficulty of finding the descendants of the true spirit.

When Chen Yuan saw this, many doubts in his mind were resolved.

No wonder the monsters would lose their minds and go crazy when they saw him. He had experienced thousands of starlight infusions, and his body contained the power of the stars, but he didn't know how to conceal it. In the eyes of the monsters, he was naturally like a panacea, and they wanted to devour him all the time to increase their monster power.

The power of the Zhoutian stars is extremely yang and strong. It is a great tonic for monsters who are cultivating their physical bodies, but for demon cultivators, it is a deadly poison.

Previously, when Chen Yuan was fighting with Master Duan Fang, he was bitten by the blood soul and exploded inexplicably. This was because the blood soul had devoured the power of the stars in his body and he could not withstand its power, so he exploded and died.

If Master Duan Fang had not used the Hundred Souls Banner that day, but instead used the less powerful Qingyun Sword to fight the enemy, Chen Yuan would not have been his opponent.

……

Chen Yuan read all the golden characters on the jade disk and immediately made a decision to practice "Nine Transformations of the True Spirit"!
Along the way, he had suffered a lot due to his poor aptitude. Now he had a technique that did not consider aptitude and led directly to the great path. No matter how difficult it was, he would not back down.

Although the essence of the true spirit is hard to find, it can be found with a targeted approach, and with the help of the Jade Jue, the difficulty is greatly reduced.

He can also draw starlight into his body to strengthen his physical body. Not practicing "Nine Transformations of the True Spirit" would be a waste of God's gifts.

After making the decision, Chen Yuan changed his mind, exited the spiritual space, picked up the jade pendant, and held it in his arms with great care.

He didn't know the origin of the jade beads, or why they were so compatible with "Nine Transformations of the True Spirit", but the fact that it could draw on the power of the stars in the sky to infuse mortals and strengthen their bodies was something that could be said to be against the will of heaven, and it was definitely not something that could be found in this world.

After putting away the jade pendant, Chen Yuan did not stop and immediately returned to the small building to carefully study the mysteries of "Nine Transformations of the True Spirit".

This experience lasted for three days and three nights.

Chen Yuan gained a lot. He closed his eyes and meditated, transforming his true energy according to the method of practicing Qigong in the Nine Transformations of the True Spirit.

This method is a physical cultivation method and is not included in the Five Elements. After completing eighty-one cycles, the true energy in Chen Yuan's body lost its red color and returned to its original appearance.

Afterwards, he dispersed the true energy in his body into his flesh body and condensed his flesh body according to the instructions of the technique.

A physical cultivator not only needs to possess tremendous strength, but also needs a condensed body that is as hard as metal and stone, and is not afraid of being cut by knives or axes. Otherwise, if he punches out, instead of killing the opponent, he will be killed by the recoil force first.

Chen Yuan's body was already extremely strong, so it was very easy to condense it. In just three days, his body was condensed into one.

Only after doing this could Chen Yuan be considered a true physical cultivator.

He stopped practicing, touched his storage bag, took out a Seven-Star Blade, raised his hand and stabbed it heavily on his left arm!
clang!
A crisp sound was heard, and the top-grade magic weapon, the Seven-Star Blade, failed to cut Chen Yuan's skin, leaving only a white spot.

Chen Yuan smiled slightly, put away the Seven Star Blade, and tried the Silver Gang Sword instead, but it cut a bloody wound.

The Silver Sword is mixed with medium-grade spiritual materials and is much stronger than the Seven-Star Blade.

Afterwards, Chen Yuan took out several magical weapons obtained from his sect’s disciples and tried several times, but failed to leave any scars on his left arm.

After this experiment, Chen Yuan knew clearly that after his body was condensed, it should be comparable to a fourth-level monster.

He has been insisting on guiding starlight into his body for decades. His original intention was just to strengthen his spiritual consciousness and he didn't care much about his physical body. However, his unintentional efforts paid off and now it has borne fruit.

He only needs to accumulate magic power, and he can practice all the way to the late stage of foundation building without any obstacles.

This place is undisturbed and has a large spiritual vein, making it the best place for cultivation.

Chen Yuan put away his magic weapon, closed his eyes and meditated, drawing a trace of spiritual energy from heaven and earth into his body, refining it into true essence and increasing his cultivation.
