Destiny is ashes

Chapter 267 True Teachings (23)

The essence of the supernatural...isn't it just a set of special organs that allow people to activate special supernatural powers?

An Jing was silent for a while, and his mind quickly reviewed everything he had seen and heard during this period... The image of the Tianxuan Zhenfu flashed through his mind.

The Tianxuan Zhenfu itself has a very strong ability to convert the Xuanyuan Qi and strengthen life, but it is essentially just one of the bases of a pure yang formation.

Just like a magical power, it has considerable power when taken alone, but in essence...

An Jing suddenly realized: "It's the formation base!"

"Internal breath is the entry point, internal strength is the foundation, and the martial vein breaks through the mysterious gate of heaven and earth. The small world condensed in one's body is the foundation of martial arts!"

"The five mysteries condensed by the inner strength are the four square formation bases of the formation, and the mystical power of the soul is the core of the formation, which coincides with the numbers of the four symbols and five elements!"

“The divine powers merge into one, and eventually condense into divine power… This is the path to break through from the inner strong martial veins to the [Dongxu Shenzang]!”

"it is good!"

Ming Guangchen couldn't help but cheer. He knew very well that An Jing had never learned any relevant martial arts knowledge before. He learned all of this on the spot, and it was all correct!

"That's it." He clapped his hands and praised: "The martial arts, the martial arts, have both martial arts and the way."

"The way of martial arts is to transform the human body into a battle array and perform the universe. Martial arts is to temper the human body for fighting, while the way of martial arts is to transform the body into the universe and achieve immortality!"

"Now, what I am going to tell you is the true teachings of the great sect."

Raising his index finger, Ming Guangchen said leisurely: "Different gods have different five elements tendencies."

An Jing waited for a long time, waiting for Ming Guangchen to continue speaking - and when he saw Ming Guangchen smiling, An Jing was shocked to realize that this so-called true teaching consisted of only one sentence!

but……

After careful consideration, combined with the previous statement that the supernatural power was the foundation of the formation, and that the supernatural power could be derived by transforming the body into a large formation, An Jing suddenly realized that this sentence was actually the true teaching of a great sect!
He whispered to himself, "Since it is a battle formation, it must be based on the five elements' mutual restraint, yin and yang's subordination, the attributes of each battle formation's base, its location, and even who is the master and who is the slave. All of these are very particular!"

——Just like spiritual roots, if you condense the supernatural powers randomly without determining the master and the servant, even if the supernatural powers are extremely powerful, they will restrain each other, and even... it will be impossible to ascend to heaven through martial arts!
If there is any mistake, even if you can break through the martial vein by chance, you will never be able to break through the divine treasure!
"Ordinary warriors have no choice but to practice whatever they have. They can only practice whatever they can and condense as many magical powers as possible. They don't care about martial veins or magical treasures. They just need to get stronger first."

“As such, the vast majority of civilian life-holders, as long as they don’t join a large force, are doomed to be stuck at the peak of inner strength. Even if someone like my An family’s ancestor was lucky enough to break through his martial veins with a rare item, he was doomed to be stuck at the initial stage and would never make any progress in his life!”

"Resources are a threshold, fate is a threshold, and the inheritance of skills is a threshold... This secret of true inheritance is also a threshold!"

After reacting, An Jing looked at the smiling Ming Guangchen, and finally understood why the Fuxie Sword Spirit had always asked him to find a local martial arts teacher.

As a sword immortal from a big sect, Fu Xie really understands!

There is no way to solve these problems even if a genius among the people understands them.

It seems that the sentence "different gods have different five elements tendencies" only represents the coordination between dozens, hundreds, or even more different gods, as well as the method of their master-slave combination.

These experiences, these 'wisdom' gained with blood and corpses, and with the future of geniuses cut off, are the real threshold, and the cornerstone for those big sects and big forces to be glorious for tens of millions of years!

Just like the alloy formula in the previous life, this is a road that can only be tried one by one and seems to be endless. On this road, not only the correct formula is wealth, even the wrong formula is wealth!
"I believe."

Ming Guangchen looked at An Jing gently: "Even if you don't join a large sect, you will have other opportunities to avoid these traps."

"But now that I'm here, things are much simpler."

An Jing originally thought that Ming Guangchen's next sentence would be to invite him to join the Mingjing Sect.

But he didn't say that.

The somewhat vicissitudes of life Chen Li Zhenren was silent for a while, as if he was reminiscing about the past. After coming back to his senses, he smiled apologetically and said calmly: "Different sects have special magic and coordination to match the skills, so even if outsiders get the sect's skills, they can't practice them."

"My Mingjing Sect has three special divine powers, namely [Bright Mirror Heart], [Glass Bone], and [Dustless Eyes]. These divine powers have similar abilities and conflict with each other, so you only need to choose one."

"Don't worry, An Jing. I won't force you to join the Mingjing Sect."

"Don't rush to choose, because I will tell you all three magical cultivation methods later."

"...Why?"

Hearing this, An Jing felt the biggest doubt since he started communicating with Ming Guangchen.

With An Jing's talent for understanding, even if the other party revealed so many secrets of cultivation to him, he would not have the slightest difficulty in understanding...but the human heart is really hard to guess.

At this point, how could An Jing not see that Ming Guangchen was teaching him everything he knew? If the other party wanted to pull him over to their side, that was fine. It was normal to train the younger generation.

But Ming Guangchen said, "I won't force you." Not to mention that An Jing was ready to agree to this matter. He knew very well that the special and magical condensation method was equivalent to the core asset of a sect.

After obtaining the special and magical condensation method, even outsiders can practice martial arts according to the Mingjing Sect's skills. If they are lucky, they can even cultivate magical powers and establish their own sect! The reason why many martial arts sects in Dachen occasionally split into branches is because this core skill has been leaked!
"Because Mingjing Sect is not a good place either."

Ming Guangchen chose a stone slab and sat down. He dissipated his Dharma body and motioned An Jing to sit down as well: "You were originally a divine general in the Demon Sect. If you hadn't defected, you would have been treated as a true disciple of a large sect."

"And I can see that the reason you defected is because you don't want to go along with them, right? In fact, judging from the fact that you would rather pretend to be a Chenli person than return to Dachen with your original identity, you actually hate Dachen's inaction."

"Especially after coming into contact with Ming Jing, you must think that Dachen is simply so vicious that you don't know why he even made a deal with the demon."

"Indeed." An Jing was not polite. He sat next to Ming Guangchen, put his elbows on his knees and supported his chin. He asked in confusion: "Are you trying to tell me that Dachen is not that bad, but Mingjing Sect is bad?"

"They are all bad. The Mingjing Sect is a little better, after all, it is not a big sect."

Ming Guangchen said frankly: "But if you expect that the sect can be much better than Dachen and become a paradise on earth, that is impossible."

"I have an...acquaintance. He is dead. Died at the hands of the demon."

Turning his head, Ming Guangchen looked towards the north, his eyes were far-reaching, as if he could see through the void: "It's not surprising that he died at the hands of the demon, even if he is one of the few people in the sect that I like."

"But the mission he was carrying out was top secret for the sect. If there wasn't a traitor within, he would never have died."

"In the sect, there are also traitors who are in league with the Heavenly Demons, disputes between aristocratic families and masters and disciples over inheritance, and many other dirty things... There is no difference between practicing in the sect and practicing in Dachen. The only difference is that the internal fighting in the sect is smaller, unlike the internal fighting in Dachen. God knows how many disasters it will cause."

Ming Guangchen was hinting at something, and An Jing thought of the Vast Sea Demon Disaster, and the 'Demon Disaster of Controlling Death' that Kanming City almost encountered.

"Why bother being so honest with me? It won't be too late to tell me after I join."

An Jing sighed: "I am not a person who doesn't keep his word. Since you call me Master, I will definitely accept this mission no matter what."

"You are born with a clear mind."

Ming Guangchen said: "You have wisdom and a high level of understanding. You understand everything, so there is no need to be confused."

"I don't want to use such hypocritical lies to trick you into joining. I told you before that strengthening your internal martial veins is so important because I wanted to tell you that joining a sect will determine your future path. If you don't give up your efforts and rebuild your martial veins, it will be difficult to change."

"You have such a talent. As the master of Xiaoguang Hall of Mingjing Sect and the future master of Xiaoming Peak, I naturally want to bind you to my sect."

"But in addition to being the True Man Shenzang of the Mingjing Sect, I am also a person from Jinyuantian."

Turning his head, the Master Shenzang looked at An Jing deeply and said, "People like us practice martial arts not to fight for power or to dominate the world, but to explore the secrets hidden behind this world and the many truths hidden in history."

“Only by knowing the reasons behind all the secrets and problems can we truly change the world.”

"I need like-minded people. The kind of like-minded people who can go the furthest, the kind of like-minded people who identify with each other from the bottom of their hearts."

"You have the potential, so I am sincere to you, and I hope you will be sincere to me."

"I do have a lot of things I haven't said." An Jing said frankly, "I don't plan to say it now."

Ming Guangchen didn't care: "Trust takes a long time, and I don't expect you to say it now, so I'm just showing my attitude."

"Also, the reason why I teach you three kinds of magical powers is because with your talent, as long as you are allowed to choose, you will naturally find the magical power that suits you best. If you are willing to practice, then you are a member of my Mingjing Sect."

"In this case, it doesn't matter if you don't return to the sect. It would be good to leave a seed outside."

"Seeds?" An Jing heard the deep meaning behind Ming Guangchen and frowned: "Is it that bad?"

"It's not so bad now. After all, all the uncles and aunts are still here, and the ancestor is still here." Ming Guangchen opened his eyes and said calmly, "But this situation won't last long."

"If you really return to the sect, then as you grow up, you may witness a large sect go from prosperity to decline, or even fall into a state of collapse."

"to be honest."

Ming Guangchen's tone was a little depressed, but An Jing laughed: "I really want to see it."

As Ming Guangchen raised his eyebrows and looked at him in surprise, An Jing turned his head and looked at the entire Kanming City, then locked onto the direction of the government office.

"They all went from prosperity to decline." He chuckled and said, "The possible decline or revival of the Mingjing Sect are both excellent examples that are hard to find in this world."

"It's a good opportunity to compare myself with Dachen, so I can adapt in advance."

"As expected of someone who came from the Demon Sect, he is very vicious."

Ming Guangchen laughed and stood up: "You have a long-term vision... Well, since you are so energetic, let's continue!"

And An Jing also stood up neatly: "Yes, Master."
