Deities nurture fire to create forms, which is an important stage in “Chen Xiansheng’s Inner Energy Script”.
After reaching this realm, the third turn of “Chen Xiansheng’s Inner Energy Script” has almost reached its conclusion. Only when it comes to “Celestial Melody Stirs Creation” can it be achieved in perfection.
Chen Yun gazes inwardly at the spiritual essence within him, unable to help but feel a bit sentimental.
Having practiced for decades, I did not expect to be almost approaching the position of a demigod.
The spiritual essence shaping form is of paramount importance to any practitioner.
Firstly, the spiritual essence is an innate nature of humans, with the ability to exist independently. It is regarded as the source of human life and the root of all life phenomena such as soul, spirit, consciousness, etc.
It possesses the characteristic of transcending the cycle of birth and death, serving as a bridge connecting humans and the Dao.
This means that through cultivating the spiritual essence, people can comprehend the mysteries of the Dao, achieve unity with it, and thereby attain the transcendence of the mind and life.
Moreover, the purity, the attribute of transcending birth and death, and the role as a bridge connecting with the Dao through cultivating the spiritual essence, people not only can improve their personal spiritual level but also deepen their understanding of all heavens and earths and life essence, thus achieving a higher state of life.
If one cultivates to the human-immortal realm, the mortal body "achieves Dao and becomes an immortal".
Then, cultivating the spiritual essence signifies that the cultivator's "true self" has transcended.
Afterwards, even if the physical body is destroyed, as long as the "spiritual essence" is immortal, then it can exist eternally.
Of course, generally speaking, before one cultivates to the level of the Yang spirit, which is a powerful spiritual essence, the spiritual essence must still depend on the physical body.
If there is no protection from the physical body, over time, the power of the spiritual essence will weaken until one day the "energy" is depleted, completely disappearing.
Chen Yun gazes at the divine fetus within him, his face displaying a sacred glow as he sits and rests.
He felt within his body a continuous emergence of "spring water nectar," which elevated his immortal body. At this moment, it seemed as if all seven orifices became clear and bright due to the "spring water nectar" generated by the spiritual essence shaping.
“As for the spring water nectar that is often drunk, if one's seven senses are clear, they will hear the celestial music.”
Chen Yun understands that as long as he waits patiently for some time, the spiritual essence will naturally "nourish" his body to the extent that he can "hear the heavenly music through nine orifices".
"Now that my sacred fetus has shaped, my spiritual essence has a 'soul,' but has not yet a 'soul-force.' Therefore, the entering and exiting is still slow, and the form is still small."
Chen Yun secretly pondered, “After three turns to cultivate Yang, the sacred fetus produces a soul. To make the sacred fetus produce a soul-force like a normal person, I still need to create a fourth turn of cultivation method."
Creating the fourth turn cultivation method is easy.
The difficulty lies in how to compensate for the damaged heart of the path within himself.
The method is simple, merely killing the Wu Daode greatly.
However, such a simple method, Chen Yun even with the sacred fetus shaping up, still not confident.
"Now that my spiritual essence has shaped, my control over myself has reached the peak, and my combat power has increased significantly."
Chen Yun analyzed, “If I have to divide my current situation into a category, it would be the realm of demigods. In fact, my combat power has already surpassed the peak that human-immortals can reach, and no one at the human-immortal level will be my match unless they possess some special abilities to counter me."
For example, previously Chen Yun felt that his normal state Yan Feng might be in danger when facing his normal state.
Now that he has cultivated the image of his spiritual essence, in his normal state, he can defeat the normal Yan Feng with just one move.
This is not to say that the “immortal energy quantity” in his normal state is much greater than that of Yan Feng, but rather that the image of his spiritual essence has taken shape, allowing him to directly launch a “spiritual attack” on human immortals.
Generally speaking, in the late stage of human-immortal realm, one cannot withstand such an attack at all.
Chen Yun had previously learned about the soul attack from the demon king in the underworld, almost being instantly defeated. It was only because the demon king wanted to subjugate him rather than kill him outright that he narrowly escaped death; otherwise, he would have died at that time.
Of course, if Yan Feng uses secret methods to artificially increase his power to the early stage of ground immortals, then he still cannot be defeated with just one move.
This is not because the spiritual essence is ineffective, but rather because in the face of absolute power, other means are difficult to produce any effect.
After all, Chen Yun's current spiritual essence is relatively weak compared to the powerful demon king from the underworld.
In other words, if Chen Yun can cultivate to the level where his spiritual essence can leave the body, then his spiritual essence will be powerful enough. At that time, even if Yan Feng artificially raises his power to the early stage of ground immortals through secret methods, it will be useless.
The most critical thing is that cultivating to the realm of ground immortals, the spiritual essence will not just become powerful.
Chen Yun had previously seen the spiritual essence manifestation of the East China Immortal Diao Taiye, Grey Taiye, and other Northeast Immortals. Those were spiritual essences that could ascend to celestial clouds, displaying inconceivable powers that were far stronger than simply “immortal energy” attacks on enemies.
The spiritual essence manifestation of celestial clouds not only possesses powerful offensive power but also strong defensive capabilities.
This can be seen from the fact that when the spiritual essence of people like Master Liu and Master Grey manifests, it wraps around their physical bodies.
At that time, the celestial beings fought with the demon king so fiercely that the aftermath was so intense that ordinary human immortals could not bear it. However, those celestial beings' physical bodies were wrapped in the manifestation of celestial clouds, and they did not suffer any damage. It can be imagined how strong their defense is.
Chen Yun pondered again and recalled Yan Feng.
He smiled and shook his head, "The current Yan Feng, even if he uses secret methods, cannot be my match."
Yan Feng can rely on secret methods to increase his power, and I also have ways to improve my combat capabilities.
Chen Yun possesses a variety of methods. The god essence itself possesses the power of the early stage of ground immortals. That's why he could defeat the White Slave Beauty with just one move when using the power of the god essence.
In addition, he possesses the Thunderfire Path body and the Golden Demon God Path body. These two path bodies, when combined with the power of the god essence, result in an even greater enhancement.
It can be said that among all the strongest beings who have explored the Moon and Star Cave, he is one of the most powerful.
Even if Jing Chen master is not his match.
The only one who has the bloodline of the Empress of Heaven, Long Zhan Tian, Chen Yun is not sure if he can definitely win against him.
“I feel that if I use the power of my god essence at this moment, I can shape a golden demon god body, I should be able to contend with Guoteng Tao Ren. Although the probability of winning is still higher than losing, the chance of winning is at least three times greater than when I was in the late stage of human immortals.”
This kind of enhancement is undoubtedly huge.
Chen Yun was quite satisfied, “The power of this spiritual essence origin from the White Slave Beauty has been too great of a help to me.”
Suddenly, he has been elevated from the late stage of human immortals to a stage between the realms of ground and celestial immortals. This kind of improvement is indeed already huge beyond measure.
What amazed him most was that after refining so much spiritual essence origin power, and even shaping the image of his spiritual essence, he did not feel much consumption of that power.
It's as if the spiritual essence origin power from White Slave Beauty is inexhaustible.
Chen Yun believes that with this kind of spiritual essence origin power, it's almost impossible to fail when he prepares to make a breakthrough to the ground realm and kills Guoteng Tao Ren.
"I just need to gather all the medicinal materials needed for Huashen Tang within the Moon and Star Cave, and then I will enter a state of rapid progress."
Chen Yun judges that once he kills Guoteng Tao Ren, according to the characteristics of the Dajiao Divine Soup in the past, after consuming the spirit-refining soup, he can reach a level close to the late stage of ground immortality within a year.
With a little more effort, the immortal realm will be within reach.
And even if he can gather all the medicinal materials needed for Huashen Huanxu Soup, it seems that heavenly immortality is not too far away.
Finally, once he acquires the celestial and terrestrial spiritual roots required for the Dajiao Divine Soup, he will be able to achieve the state of being one with the Tao.
What others have to imagine for thousands or millions of years of cultivation, seems easy to me.
“Ultimately, it is the fault of <Dajiao Divine Soup>!”
Chen Yun understands that the speed of cultivation is not because of his own high innate ability, but because <Dajiao Divine Soup> is too amazing.
"Now that I have shaped the image of my spiritual essence, my combat power has increased significantly. I really want to find someone to test my strength."
Thinking of this, Chen Yun couldn't help but look towards the direction of Maomei Mountain, "There are many powerful spirit beasts over there, which should be enough to test my current combat power."
Alright, since external exploration is over, I can go to Maomei Mountain.
Chen Yun was about to fully open his divine sense to sense the whereabouts of Niu Dalu.
Suddenly, there was an earthquake that shook the mountains.
The "Five Elements Eight Trigrams Defense Array" he had set up outside seemed to have been triggered, emitting boundless power to repel some powerful destruction.
Chen Yun immediately released his spiritual sense and quickly observed that high above, the Dou Yuan was dueling with Niu Dalu.
The two fought with the mountains cracking and the ground splitting open. Dark clouds filled the sky, with electric and thunderclap repeatedly emerging, adding to the magnificent sight.
Chen Yun was stunned, speechless: "Why did these two start fighting again?"
He remembered that Niu Dalu had said before that there was no great grudge between him and Dou Yuan. The previous fight had been over the robbery of celestial and terrestrial spiritual roots.
However, Dou Yuan had a grudge against Niu Dalu. Although Niu Dalu had already fled at that time, Dou Yuan had followed him all the way to try to kill him.
Now that the two of them have started fighting again, does it have anything to do with the competition for precious celestial and terrestrial spiritual roots?
Chen Yun was not aware of the full story, but he was preparing to go out and stop them. After all, Niu Dalu was supposed to take him to explore Maomei Mountain later, and he couldn't let something happen to him.
<End>
Niu Dalu and Dou Yuan were truly fighting fiercely this time.
Here, Niu Dalu wielded a trident and smashed it down on Dou Yuan head-on, releasing an overwhelming force that caused the heavens and earth to tremble.
On the other side, Dou Yuan held a rosary in his hand and recited chants, a merit wheel rising from his back and emitting Buddha's light that kept repelling Niu Dalu's attacks. Moreover, it made Niu Dalu unable to get any closer.
One wields a trident with no mercy; the other, a Buddhist prayer bead with wisdom and measure.
Niu Immortal unleashes a fierce display, while Buddhist monk dispels doubts with wisdom.
Suddenly, the ice mountain crumbled and white crystals spread across the sky and earth. The waves roared and the sky was covered.
It seemed as if the two would not stop until one of them was dead, and the battle would never end.
Suddenly, a bright red pill light rose from the ground.
As soon as the red pill light appeared, it soared directly towards the sky domain and spread out, dyeing the entire sky red like a burning cloud. It seemed like a layer upon layer of rolling waves were coming down, separating Niu Dalu and Dou Yuan.
Niu Dalu's face turned pale.
Dou Yuan was even more startled.
They never expected that another cultivator with far greater strength than them was lurking in the shadows, and that this person had actually separated them just as they were fighting.
This power is truly terrifying!
