Man in the heavens, wins by lying down to prove the truth

Chapter 141: Refining the God and Demon Treasure Map and Becoming the Forefather of the School

Not far away outside the Eternal Forest, ripples suddenly appeared in the space and time, forming a space-time channel.

Then a stream of light was seen emerging from the space-time channel and landing on the ground.

"Are we...back?"

Chen Nan looked around and confirmed that this was the area outside the Eternal Forest.

Immediately afterwards, several streams of light fell from the passage to Chen Nan's side, revealing the purple-gold dragon, the little phoenix, the baby dragon and the elven saint Catherine found in the Eternal Forest.

"Wuhu, I finally made it out of that damn place alive!"

The ruffian dragon shouted excitedly and swore that he would never enter the Eternal Forest again in his life.

"Why is the senior gone?"

The little phoenix spoke with some concern, but as soon as it finished speaking, a somewhat illusory Zhou Cheng emerged, and in an instant he became completely solid.

Zhou Cheng's eyes first fell on Catherine, and then he looked at Chen Nan and said, "It seems that your goal has been achieved."

Chen Nan was stunned and asked quickly: "Senior, why does Catherine... look exactly like Yu Xin?"

This time, Chen Nan entered the Eternal Forest, one was to find clues about Yu Xin, and the other was because the elves entrusted Chen Nan to enter the Eternal Forest to help them find the elf saint Catherine.

Hearing Chen Nan's question, Catherine looked over with some curiosity. She was also very curious about her own origins. Many people in the clan were always vague when faced with her questions.

"The Yu Xin you are looking for is her, or rather, she is a part of Yu Xin. This is the historical text that the Heaven and Earth Karma told me, and it cannot be wrong."

"But if you want to find the woman in your memory, you have to go to the heaven, to the eastern fairyland of the heaven, there is a person called Fairy Wuqing, then you will know everything."

After Zhou Cheng finished speaking, Chen Nan hurriedly asked: "Senior, do you know... my father Chen Zhan was the King Xiaoyao of Huaxia ten thousand years ago."

"I know. Your father, Chen Zhan, was the ninth son of the Chen family in the heavenly realm. He was born with extraordinary talent and was praised as a genius of his generation. Later, many accidents happened. Your father rebelled against the Chen family, lost all his skills and memories, and fell into the human world. Then you were born..."

Chen Nan had never heard his father talk about what Zhou Cheng said.

As for some of the details of the Chen family and the Chen Zhan rebellion, Zhou Cheng did not say it clearly. As the saying goes, a distant family member should not be separated from a close family member. Just give a hint so that Chen Nan can understand it.

"...In the end, your father's demonic body languished in the seventeenth level of hell, while his divine body entered the third realm with his wife."

After listening to Zhou Cheng's account of the whole cause and effect, Chen Nan was unable to recover for a long time.

The amount of information Zhou Cheng said was so huge that it overturned Chen Nan's own cognition.

"So...is this the truth of everything?"

There seemed to be some light reviving in Chen Nan's eyes. To him, nothing else mattered. As long as he could be sure that his father and Yu Xin were alive, that was enough.

Seeing Chen Nan's expression, Zhou Cheng spoke again: "Don't slack off because of this. The little pawn just now called himself a planner, but he is short-sighted. There are indeed ancient people who are planning in this world."

"And you are the biggest one, carrying the fate and hopes of too many people."

Chen Nan was stunned. He was... also a part of the game?

Seeing that Chen Nan still wanted to dig deeper, Zhou Cheng shook his head and said, "I can't tell you any more. Secrecy leads to success, while disclosure leads to failure. You just need to practice diligently. Without strength, everything is empty talk."

Faced with Zhou Cheng's advice, Chen Nan was extremely grateful and immediately bowed to Zhou Cheng respectfully.

"Hahaha... no need to be like this. If we are destined to meet again in the future, we will see each other again."

Zhou Cheng laughed, his figure slowly became illusory, and he ignored Chen Nan's courtesy.

"Senior... I don't know your name, but I will remember your guidance forever!"

Seeing Zhou Cheng was about to leave, Chen Nan asked hurriedly, pious and sincere.

However, Zhou Cheng had already left this place and his whereabouts were unknown.

……

Above the vast sky, Zhou Cheng was walking on the clouds, and every step he took covered mountains and rivers of who knows how many miles.

If you observe carefully, you can see that with every step Zhou Cheng takes, the essence of spiritual energy between heaven and earth will condense and transform into black and white lotuses that flicker with light and darkness.

"The Fantasy Continent, the Taihang Mountains, the Kunlun Mountains... they are really familiar."

Zhou Cheng's eyes were filled with divine light, illuminating the entire human world, and he saw many hidden mysterious realms.

Zhou Cheng had no intention of contacting these forces. It would just be a waste of his time.

"With my current strength, I am still too weak... There is still some time before the return of the ancient gods, so I can continue to practice in seclusion."

Zhou Cheng has now completely escaped from the half-life and half-death situation, he has obtained the Demon Summoning Sutra, and has mastered the essence of the God's Tomb practice method. He can completely leave this world directly.

On the panel of the reincarnationist, the option to return to the time and space coordinates was dim, with only a few streams of light appearing.

That’s because Zhou Cheng’s level is too high now, and the accumulated power is not enough for Zhou Cheng to return in a complete state.

But after returning to the wilderness, with the Willow God guarding Shi Village, there is no danger. With the ability of his immortal body, he can return to his peak in an instant.

But Zhou Cheng's ultimate goal of traveling through the heavens was to steal time to practice and make himself as stronger as possible.

"Let's go to Kunlun Mountain."

Zhou Cheng didn’t have any destination, he went to Kunlun Mountain just because of the name.

As Zhou Cheng took a step forward, the surrounding time and space changed, and his figure appeared directly above Kunlun Mountain.

The vast Kunlun Mountains are majestic, with silver and green. From afar, the Kunlun Mountains are lush and green below the waist, full of spring. Above the waist, the mountains are covered with snow, a vast expanse of white.

There are many secluded sects and forces in Kunlun Mountain, but except for Kunlun Xuanjie, they are basically nothing.

Soon, a snow lotus blossomed on the top of a towering mountain and turned into a lotus platform.

Zhou Cheng sat cross-legged on the lotus platform, with black and white mysterious light interweaving and evolving into an illusory Tai Chi diagram in front of him.

"This method of refining the Tai Chi diagram is not too difficult."

The rough method of refining the Tai Chi God and Demon Diagram is indeed simple and crude. The first step is to collect treasures containing majestic vitality and death, and refine them into two forbidden stars, which respectively contain the mysteries of life and death.

Then, you have to find a strange place that is thriving but also filled with a lingering aura of death, and build a tomb of gods and demons in the shape of the Tai Chi diagram, and bury the two supreme stars in the position of the Yin-Yang eye of the Tai Chi diagram.

As the power of creation passed over time, the rough draft of the Tai Chi God and Demon Diagram was finally refined.

But up to this point, they are still rough pieces, not considered treasures, and have no great power at all.

If one wants to transform the rough draft into a real treasure, it needs to be refined according to the law of reincarnation of life and death, and integrated into a perfect world, before it can be transformed into the picture of gods and demons dormant in Chen Nan's dantian.

"With my own power of life and death, I practice the way of gods and demons in this world, evolve the power of gods and demons, and nurture it in my dantian. It is not difficult to create a rough draft." The real difficulty is to integrate a perfect world seed later, evolve the way of life and death, and give birth to a real picture of gods and demons.

In a perfect world, Zhou Cheng's own inner world will sooner or later achieve perfection, and his understanding of life, death and reincarnation in the future will surely reach the level of Dugu Baitian.

And the picture of gods and demons that Zhou Cheng refined with his own strength will naturally be more in line with Zhou Cheng.

Moreover, as Zhou Cheng travels through the heavens, the World Tree imprints the fruits of the heavens to perfect itself, and the map of gods and demons can also devour the gods and demons of the heavens to transform.

Being able to travel through the heavens makes the potential of Zhou Cheng's Map of Gods and Demons far exceed the original version.

"In this case, do I have to use this inner world of mine to refine treasures?"

Zhou Cheng weighed the options for a moment, then shook his head.

It takes a long time to refine the God and Demon Diagram, so there is no need to rush. Perhaps in the future I will be able to find a perfect place to refine treasures.

As for now, he would first use the vitality and death energy in his body to evolve the forbidden stars of life and death, and give birth to the rough draft of the God and Demon Picture.

As a time traveler, Zhou Cheng knew the principle behind the creation of the God and Demon Diagram.

But the actual operating skills have to be thanked to the treasure-sending boy. I really don’t know who left behind the method of refining the God and Demon Picture, which allowed the treasure-sending boy to get it and even refine a pirated rough draft.

But now, all of this is beneficial to Zhou Cheng.

Boom!

A tremendous roar shook the heaven and earth. The entire majestic Kunlun Mountains were in turmoil. The silent snow-capped peaks seemed to be on the verge of collapse, causing countless lives living in the Kunlun Mountains to be terrified.

But in the next moment, an invisible force descended and suppressed the avalanche out of thin air.

Then, all the creatures living on Mount Kunlun saw a shocking scene. On the Chatian Peak, which rose into the sky like a sharp sword, there was a dazzling black and white divine light shooting straight into the sky.

At this moment, the entire sky was rendered in black and white. Even people thousands of miles away from Mount Kunlun could see this vast vision.

Rumble!
Endless lightning is roaring, but this is not a heavenly calamity.

With Zhou Cheng's current abilities, he would have been able to ignore the rules of the human world and exert his full strength in the human world.

The dazzling thunder was just the heaven and earth echoing Zhou Cheng, evolving into endless changes in wind and clouds, and thousands of cold currents circling the mountains.

The whole process didn't last long, only about ten minutes.

After all the strange phenomena had dissipated, too many practitioners had gathered on the hillside of Chatian Peak. They were all powerful people in Kunlun Mountain, and some of them had an aura level that reached the sixth level.

In the human world, the sixth-order strongmen have been regarded as the best in the world for thousands of years.

"It is a blessing for you all to see me come out of retreat. I will pass on the body-refining martial arts to the world. I hope you will not let me down..."

Zhou Cheng's voice echoed between heaven and earth, like thunder shaking the world.

Then, one could hear the boundless sound of Tao echoing, telling about an unprecedented spiritual practice.

The first stage strengthens the skin, flesh, tendons and bones, and condenses the energy and blood.

The second stage nourishes the internal organs and strengthens the foundation of the body.

The third stage opens up all the orifices in the body and activates the qi and blood chakra.

Then at the fourth stage, one can condense the sea of ​​true energy, at the fifth stage, one can penetrate the eight extraordinary meridians, until at the sixth stage, one can open up the world, perform the Tao, and achieve the ultimate state in the human world.

This is a kind of cultivation profession created by Zhou Cheng based on the cultivation system of the God's Tomb and his own Three Flowers Dao Fruit. It is not a truly independent cultivation path, and is on par with the warriors, ascetics, magicians, etc. in this world.

However, compared with the various cultivation professions in the world, the body-refining martial artist created by Zhou Cheng pays more attention to the strength of the physical body and focuses on tapping the potential of the human body.

In the early stages, it is more difficult for body-refining warriors to practice, but their combat power is stronger at the same level, so it can be said that there are gains and losses.

From the sixth level onwards, there is basically no difference. And because the body-refining warriors themselves focus on exploring their own potential, after achieving the sixth level they can directly maintain the unity of essence, energy and spirit and control the state of the outside world.

The subsequent realms will also be slightly less difficult to break through because the body refining flow focuses on the basics and incorporates some concepts of using the body as a seed, giving you stronger control over yourself.

Of course, this only reduces the difficulty a little bit and is not obvious. However, it is of great help to those whose talents are stuck at the critical point of level 7 or even level 8.

As time passed, Zhou Cheng's thunderous voice disappeared. When everyone came back to their senses from what Zhou Cheng had said, Zhou Cheng was no longer visible.

Some practitioners bravely climbed to the top of Chatian Peak.

As expected, there was no one here, only a snow-white lotus blooming against the cold current. It contained vibrant vitality and gave birth to the initial spiritual intelligence. It could be regarded as a newly born demon clan.

"Look...there is a stone tablet!"

Originally, Chatian Peak was covered with snow, so the stone tablet revealed after the snow melted looked very eye-catching.

On the stone tablet, there are engraved pictures of the human body's meridians and acupoints, and next to the pictures are the most basic body-building exercises left by Zhou Cheng.

This technique has no name and no connotation. It is the most basic method of cultivation, up to the fifth level.

Zhou Cheng could leave behind a complete sixth-level practice method, but it would be meaningless.

If it is too perfect, it will make it difficult for future generations to find their own way.

This is also the reason why in the Perfect World, Beast Baby only passed down the five secret realms, but did not pass down the sixth secret realm, the God Outside the Body.

Because the beast baby has foreseen that the future will be an age of the Dharma Ending Age, if he wants to achieve immortality, he must walk his own path.

However, a road that is too complete will become a cage for future generations of living beings.

……

After leaving Kunlun Mountain, Zhou Cheng was still wandering aimlessly.

While Zhou Cheng was comprehending the heaven and earth and imprinting the principles of the world with the World Tree, he was also traveling around the human world, observing all kinds of living beings, gaining insight into the different cultivation methods of this world, and modifying them into the methods of the body refining school, which he randomly passed on to those who were destined to receive them.

Whether it is modifying the exercises or developing a body refining school based on his own Three Flowers Dao Fruit, it is all a process for Zhou Cheng to absorb nutrients from the Divine Tomb system.

As the saying goes, reading is ever-changing and its meaning becomes clear, and this is even more true.

As time passed, Zhou Cheng's traces seemed to appear in many corners of the Eastern Continent at the same time.

Almost at the same time, a young genius in the State of Jin claimed to have seen the Martial Ancestor, who bestowed upon him a method of physical training, and he called himself the Martial Ancestor's disciple.

Soon after, another genius from the State of Chu emerged and claimed that he had just seen the true appearance of Master Wuzu two days ago, and that it was impossible for him to appear in the State of Jin. Therefore, the disciple of Master Wuzu from the State of Jin must be a fake.

There are more and more similar rumors. I don’t know how many people have noticed this person who suddenly appeared on Kunlun Mountain and is suspected to be the ancestor of the body-building martial arts who is the best in the world.
