Ink panel: Hunting the sun and surveying the sky from the bow.

The moment Shen Qing had this thought, the text on the ink panel was immediately updated.

[Skill: Six Paths of Reincarnation (Mastery)]

[Progress: 4/10000 points]

[Status: Unbreakable]

[Note: A rope can saw through wood, and water can wear away stone. After years of practice, you gradually realized the true meaning of the Six Paths of Reincarnation - the tenacity of the human way, the vastness of the heavenly way, the fighting of the Asura way, the wildness of the animal way, the greed (absorption) of the hungry ghost way, and the suffering (transformation and rebirth) of the hell way. After the breakthrough, you successfully mastered the power of humanity, and your flesh and blood and will were further improved, and your holy blood was further strengthened. ]

You can mobilize the natural power of mountains, rivers, earth, wind, rain, thunder and lightning at will, and integrate it into the seal to form all kinds of incredible attack and defense methods.]

Shen Qing stared at the ink characters that appeared in his sight, and his breathing became heavy.

From the notes on these two techniques, he felt that he seemed to have vaguely touched the threshold of "the Great Way".

Waves of unfamiliar memories began to emerge, forcefully inserting themselves into his mind without giving him a chance to react.

At the same time, a special energy rose from his body.

Shen Qing prepared himself as usual, holding his breath and concentrating on dealing with the shock and changes.

These two skills took him nearly a year to master, and required much more energy than other martial arts.

Therefore, the memories in these two techniques are much more than the memories broken through by any previous technique.

Even though he had already reached the Lingxu realm, he almost lost his concentration and felt very uncomfortable.

In the past, he would have fainted.

A full quarter of time passed before Shen Qing gradually came back to his senses, regained his clarity of mind, and digested the massive amount of memories.

In his memory, Shen Qing seemed to have experienced a whole lifetime. In the long river of time, he spent a full four or five hundred years constantly studying and refining these two martial arts. Finally, he achieved success and practiced these two martial arts that were comparable to immortal martial arts to the next level.

Shen Qing closed his eyes and looked inward, and found that the golden holy blood in his body was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. It grew from the size of a hair to the thickness of a little finger, undergoing a tremendous change.

Whenever he practiced his Qi, the acupuncture points all over his body would glow with silver light, and every inch of his flesh and blood would become crystal clear and glittering with golden light.

The originally condensed scorching heat was completely washed away, and no trace of red was left.

The same is true for the Eight Desolate Destruction Seal.

Shen Qing just had a random thought, and his hands felt familiar, as if he had practiced it thousands of times. He casually made a strange yet familiar seal, which caused thunder to shake the void.

A golden seal slowly took shape in front of him, containing terrifying power.

Shen Qing retracted his gesture, and the condensed strange image in front of him suddenly dispersed like stars and disappeared into the void.

With the help of his spiritual eyes, his cultivation progressed very smoothly. He felt the vast ocean of spiritual power in his body and felt satisfied.

In the blink of an eye, another three days passed.

On the fifth floor of the Royal Armory, Shen Qing sat cross-legged, with stars twinkling around him, bathing in a galaxy.

At this moment, there seemed to be a spiritual spring surging in his sea of ​​consciousness, and a subtle but extremely strong pulsation quietly rose, like a dormant dragon in the abyss, ready to break out of the cocoon and soar into the sky.

This is a sign that the primordial spirit is about to condense and the spiritual realm is about to be perfected.

Shen Qing suddenly seemed to realize something, and he decisively ended his training in the Royal Arsenal.

Then, he left the Royal Armory at a leisurely pace as usual, with the same expression as usual.

He knew that this kind of breakthrough would bring about many external changes, and there were undercurrents in the capital city, with many talented people emerging. One careless move could easily attract unnecessary attention.

After Shen Qing pondered for a moment, he left the capital in a low-key manner and found a dilapidated wild temple in a desolate wilderness.

Although this temple has been in disrepair for many years, its basic framework is still intact. It is sparsely visited and is quiet.

He stepped in without hesitation, and a stale and decayed smell hit him in the face.

Inside the temple, dust was everywhere and the light was dim, revealing a desolate and messy feeling as if it had been uninhabited for a long time.

Shen Qing took a deep breath, raised his hands gently, and spiritual power flowed out from his palms like a trickle.

He clasped his hands together, and an invisible whirlwind suddenly arose in the temple. Wherever it passed, the dust was swept away, and the smell of decay was also swept away.

The entire wild temple looks brand new.

Shen Qing smiled with satisfaction, sat on the ground, and was surrounded by spiritual energy.

Then, Shen Qing took out several small yellow triangular flags from his arms.

Since the end of the pacification meeting, he has been in contact with Shen Xiaohu. With his mastery of formations, he can now easily create formation flags.

After the last battle flag was destroyed by the power of the ruins, he used what he had learned and the materials around him to recast it.

The formation flags in front of him were the result of his experiments in his spare time.

Although these small flags look simple, they have basically the ability to isolate. However, the materials and techniques are somewhat rough, so they can only be used as disposable products and cannot be reused.

Condensing his primordial spirit was a vital matter for him. The formation he performed by pinching his fingers was not very stable, and he was unwilling to take risks, so he decided to take out the formation flag, which was safer.

Shen Qing's fingers were flying, and the small flag was moving in his hand. Following his guidance, it drew mysterious trajectories in the air and finally landed steadily on all sides of the wild temple.

As Shen Qing chanted a spell, the small flags emitted a faint fluorescent light and gradually formed an isolation formation.

Once the formation was completed, the entire wild temple seemed to be wrapped in an invisible barrier, completely isolated from the outside world.

If one has not condensed the primordial spirit or divine consciousness, even a person with a high level of cultivation would find it difficult to pry into the secrets within.

After making sure that everything was safe, Shen Qing took out a handful of guardian incense.

Shoushenxiang was the salary given by the Zhou Dynasty court to official "officials".

Each person is only allowed to take one stick per month, which has the effect of calming the mind and soul.

Most officials only regard it as an aid to their daily practice.

In fact, this guardian incense can also serve as a coordinate when a martial artist is refining his primordial spirit or spiritual consciousness, preventing the primordial spirit or spiritual consciousness from vibrating and causing irreversible damage to the practitioner.

Shen Qing had accumulated some since he became the chief envoy of Yongzhou, and he got another one when he left Taiping County, which came in handy now.

Shen Qing took out the guardian incense in his hand one by one, circulated his spiritual power, and inserted them all out with himself as the center.

The entire wild temple was filled with stuff inside and out.

Shen Qing snapped his fingers and lit them all without hesitation.

In an instant, wisps of green smoke rose from the slender incense sticks like snakes, lingering in the air, giving off a strange fragrance that made people feel relaxed and happy and clear-minded.

As the green smoke spread, Shen Qing felt that all the noise and disturbance around him seemed to be isolated by this mysterious power, and his state of mind began to gradually become peaceful and profound, as if he was in an endless sea of ​​tranquility, without any waves. He carefully comprehended it, allowing the power from the Guardian Incense to guide him to wipe away all distractions and obsessions, leaving only the purest self.

"almost."

Seeing that everything was ready, Shen Qing took out another old ginseng pill.

This was a gift from Li Zhentian, the Marquis of the Li family. It is of great help in condensing the primordial spirit.

To be on the safe side, Shen Qing once scraped off the outer layer and fed it to cats and dogs, but no negative changes occurred, so it was the real thing.

You can also take it out at this time.

There are distinctions between strong and weak in the Yuanshen realm, and the breakthrough at this moment determines 70 to 80 percent of the outcome.

Seeing that everything was ready, Shen Qing did not delay any longer. He swallowed the old ginseng pill in one gulp and entered into a complete state of meditation in endless tranquility.

As the pill entered his stomach, a warm and powerful force instantly exploded in his body.

Shen Qing only felt that his body and mind were enveloped by an endless tranquility. He took this opportunity to completely immerse himself in cultivation, focusing all his thoughts and entering a state of complete meditation.

Under the guidance of his mind, the spiritual energy in his body began to flow violently like an awakened river.

Shen Qing's body was gradually covered by a faint glow, full of vitality.

For all martial artists in this world, the Soul Formation Realm is the highest realm they dream of. Once they break through this realm, they can be called great powers.

As the name suggests, the Yuanshen realm is related to the Yuanshen.

A martial artist in the Lingxu realm is one who constantly explores his own hidden secrets, and integrates and condenses them to the extreme, allowing himself to continuously fit and blend with the universe. This is a mysterious process.

When a martial artist's soul is in harmony with the heaven and earth to a certain indescribable critical point, he will be able to condense a wisp of soul and reach spiritual perfection.

When the soul is able to leave the body, even just an inch, it will be the real soul realm, transcending the mundane world.

The key to breaking through this realm lies in the two words "condense" and "integrate".

Condensation means to condense the spiritual power in the body to the extreme, turning it from real to virtual, and reaching a state of resonance with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth; combination means to allow the primordial spirit to merge with all things in heaven and earth, gradually growing stronger until it can be fully manifested and will not be dispersed by the free spiritual power of heaven and earth.

Once a cultivator breaks through to the Yuanshen realm, he will be able to master all sorts of incredible magical powers and spells, just like a true immortal, able to change the world at will and make countless changes.

Shen Qing clasped his hands together and focused his mind.

First, it is "condensation.

Shen Qing gathered all the spiritual power in his body like a trickle of water, constantly condensing it, and building a framework based on his own outline.

During this process, he continued to fill this framework with his true self, while also continuously filling this framework with spiritual essence.

Under the dual blessing of the powerful medicinal power of the Old Ginseng Pill and the tranquilizing effect of the Guarding God Incense, Shen Qing's state of mind became unprecedentedly focused, and he dared not slack off or neglect himself in the slightest.

Finally, with his unremitting efforts, a soul embryo that looked exactly like him but more illusory and ethereal quietly took shape and continued to improve.

When the "condensation" stage is achieved, the next step is the more critical "integration".

Shen Qing took a deep breath, relaxed his mind, and allowed his already perfected soul to merge with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the outside world.

At this moment, the free spiritual energy in the outside world seemed to have turned into a knife to scrape his bones, madly attacking his newly condensed soul embryo, trying to tear it apart and destroy it.

Shen Qing immediately felt the same way.

Every time a part of the condensed soul embryo was cut off, he felt as if a piece of his body was cut off and was suffering the punishment of "lingchi".

This is an indescribable pain and suffering.

Beads of sweat the size of beans kept oozing out of Shen Qing's forehead.

Shen Qing never thought that condensing the soul would be such a painful process.

But he never gave up, kept gritting his teeth and persevering, never backing down.

This is the only way to condense the primordial spirit and cannot be skipped.

Shen Qing constantly used his own spiritual power to repair and strengthen the soul. For every point that was taken away, he would replenish it, and he was in a constant stalemate with the free spiritual energy in the outside world.

He just felt that every day was like a year.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but just when Shen Qing felt he could not hold on any longer, a loud bang echoed in his heart.

It was as if some kind of shackles were completely broken, and that newborn soul blossomed with supreme brilliance at this moment, becoming one with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the outside world, and there was no longer any rejection between the two.

All the discomfort and pain disappeared, replaced by an unprecedented sense of power and tranquility.

"It's done!"

Shen Qing was ecstatic, he knew that he had successfully condensed his primordial spirit and reached the late stage of Lingxu Realm, only one step away from the primordial spirit realm.

He looked at his own soul carefully. It was like a work of art, flawless and he felt very satisfied.

"In that case, why don't I try to take that step? Cultivate a ray of my soul and overlook the world."

If someone were here, they would definitely think Shen Qing was daydreaming.

It is already very difficult to condense the soul. At this time, the newly condensed soul is very fragile. It is too risky to want to leave the body again.

But Shen Qing has always been a decisive person and doesn't like to drag things out.

He activated the Six Paths of Reincarnation, gained the power of humanity, and was tenacious.

In his sea of ​​consciousness, he recalled the first time he climbed to the top of Mount Tai and stood on the edge of the cliff.

At that time, the sea of ​​clouds was rolling. Looking up, you could see the horizon where the sun was rising. Looking down, you would see that the people climbing up the mountain were as small as ants.

The cold wind howled, making his legs weak.

At this moment, Shen Qing imagined himself at the top of the mountain, and then jumped off.

An intense feeling of weightlessness was felt.

Shen Qing felt his whole body lighten and his sight suddenly rose higher.

He looked around and found that he was still in the dilapidated temple, without any changes.

Only when you look down can you see another self.

Shen Qing's expression changed slightly, and a burst of ecstasy appeared on his face.

"This is, the soul has left the body... I have broken through the soul realm, I have made it!!!"

Generally speaking, it takes only one inch for the soul to leave the body, but once he condensed it, he could soar into the air, which was far more than an inch.

Even though Shen Qing didn't know how others would perform when they broke through the Yuan Shen realm, he could still realize that he was too different and was probably "different from ordinary people." (End of this chapter)
