Chapter 133 Planting Spiritual Roots

Xu Dao sank his mind and began to read carefully.

The words and language used in "Cultivation of the Realm" are not tedious, difficult and obscure, but written on the pages of the book in straightforward sentences with one question and one answer.

Words came into Xu Dao's eyes one by one, and sparks collided in his mind.

"Immortals and Taoists do not have spirits, they accumulate energy to make things come true."

"Fetal breath is called a Taoist boy, a boy who seeks the Tao, and a toddler. Refining Qi is called a Taoist, an apprentice who learns the Tao, and a beginner in the truth. Establishing a foundation is called a Taoist, walking on the road, preaching and teaching. Jindan is a Taoist, and can spread the world..."

"Yuanying, a real person, ghost, immortal, reincarnated, immortal in reincarnation...a god refiner, a land god, experienced three disasters of wind, fire, thunder, and ascended from the house..."

Quickly flipping through "One Hundred Solutions to Cultivation", many questions and answers entered Xu Dao's mind, some of which he had seen in the Temple of Bones, and some he hadn't heard of, which greatly deepened his understanding of the cultivation of Taoism. understanding of science.

Because of his short-sightedness, just this Taoist teaching material that was passed down to the world thousands of years ago made Xu Dao feel suddenly enlightened.

He was immersed in it, and although he couldn't find the information about Foundation Establishment in the first place, he didn't feel disappointed.

While reading and thinking, Xu Dao raised his eyebrows slightly, and stroked a sentence on the leather book with his fingers:

"The way of immortality is not an evil way, and the way of martial arts is not an evil way..."

This sentence on the leather book was outlined in blood-like cinnabar handwriting, and the font was the size of soybeans. It was written vertically on the leather paper, occupying four lines, which was extremely eye-catching, but the rest of the page was written People tore it off.

Xu Dao can only guess from the remnants of the page such words as "prevent the erroneous progress" and "obey the heart of the Tao".

The leather book in his hand was auctioned from someone else, and the seller had explained in advance that the contents of the book can be guaranteed to be free from smears and tampering, but it has been handed down for thousands of years, and some pages are inevitably damaged.

Fortunately, Xu Dao combined his previous experience of "enlightening the Tao" and thought to himself: "I think this chapter should teach people not to fall into the devil's way when practicing Taoism and martial arts. You need to abide by the Taoist heart and be careful not to lose your mind, so as not to deviate from human nature, but I don't know. Why let people tear it off."

Dao heart is one thing, when Xu Dao "enlightened Dao" during his trip to Montenegro, he had already received the blow of the wordless lu, and he was very clear about its importance, so it doesn't hurt to skip this chapter.

When he continued to read and flipped through a piece of paper, his eyelids suddenly lifted slightly, and he concentrated on it.

This piece of parchment recorded the news about foundation establishment.

"Cultivate the truth and return to the basics, and return to the true self. What is the true self? Immortals refine the gods, seek the source of their thoughts; martial arts refine the essence, trace the roots of their blood..."

"Spiritual roots are the foundation of Taoism. Collect the meaning of mountains, rivers, thunder, lightning, wind and fire, and feel the world; absorb the essence and blood of all things, trace the origin and seek the source, and transcend the ordinary."

This page first writes the general introduction, and then explains it in detail, so that after Xu Dao reads it, the fog in his heart will be cleared, and his thoughts will be clear.

It turns out that there are two spiritual roots, one is the spiritual root of immortality, and the other is the spiritual root of martial arts. Both of them are treasures of heaven and earth, but they are neither dead nor alive.

According to the explanation in the leather book, the yin gods are refined in the immortal way, and the yin gods of human beings are vain and uncertain, without talent, and it is difficult to become a weapon, but the heaven and earth have their own spirituality, and there will be gods and other existences, such beings are born to control mountains and rivers , The genus of thunder, lightning, wind and fire, can communicate with heaven and earth, and control the mighty power of heaven and earth.

Those with spiritual roots are this kind of authority and talent.Taoists refine their bodies, seize their power, and swallow their spirits, which is called spiritual roots.

Once the spiritual root is planted, the Yin God of the Taoist can acquire the talents of water veins, fire veins, wind veins, and thunder veins, and then can perceive mountains and rivers, thunder, lightning, wind and fire, and have supernatural powers such as fire, fire, and water. When used in the practice of Taoism, it will even allow Taoists to get corresponding bonuses when practicing spells.

Among them, the gods of heaven and earth are big and small. The small ones are vain and ghost-like, and they are called "gods and ghosts";

Refining the former, Taoists can barely comprehend the nature of heaven and earth, and be promoted to build a foundation, but this kind of talent is insufficient and lacks authority, so they can only serve as first-class little gods of land and city gods, and cannot form alchemy;

Only by refining the latter and above, with Taoist authority in hand, can one be gifted, able to control wind, thunder, water, fire, etc., be able to serve as the genus of river gods and mountain gods, and have the possibility of forming alchemy.

As for the martial arts spiritual root, it is more concise, referring to the blood of ancient monsters.

The human body is weak, and the Taoist uses the human body to refine the body of a monster, eat its flesh, knock its bones out, plant its blood, transform its body, and strengthen itself.

Although the ancient monsters have been extinct long ago, their blood remains in the world, whether weak or strong, mixed and fine.

Among them, the hybrids are collectively referred to as "monsters". Taoists who get their blood can transform their bodies, strengthen themselves, and step into foundation building, but they can't go back to the source, and there is no possibility of forming alchemy.

The essence is called "goblin", whose bloodline is still pure and can be traced back to ancient monsters, which makes it possible for Taoists to form alchemy.

In addition to the above introduction, there are other extended explanations in this article.

After Xu Daotong finished reading the article, there was a bang in his head.

"It turns out that the so-called spiritual root is to steal good fortune. Human beings lack talent, unable to sense the heaven and earth, so they steal the talent of gods; human bodies lack roots, and it is difficult to break through the limit, so they steal the roots of monsters."

Xu Dao stared at the "Cultivation of Hundred Solutions" in his hand, he suppressed his thoughts, and quickly flipped through the back.

When he finished reading the whole book, he closed his eyes, and the thoughts in his mind were surging.

At the back of the book, some other problems and dilemmas were introduced, which broadened Xu Dao's horizon a lot.But this book is really just one of the popular textbooks in Taoist temples thousands of years ago, and it is not considered a profound book. It only involves the realm of Qi refining and foundation building, and does not involve too much the realm of Jindan and Yuanying.

Fortunately, it has given Xu Dao an insight into the truth of the Foundation Establishment Realm, which has satisfied him.

With his eyes closed, Xu Dao combined what he had thought and learned since he practiced Taoism, and reflected the contents of the book one by one.

He thought to himself: "The content in the book may not be completely credible, but the general content should be true."

"The realm of building a foundation is just as its name suggests, it is a hurdle to build a Daoist foundation, and the spiritual root is the starting point of this realm. It is not only related to whether a Taoist can enter the realm of building a foundation, but also related to future qualifications and the direction of Taoism. how."

"The higher the quality of the spiritual root that is picked for foundation building, the faster it can be cultivated, the deeper its compatibility with the corresponding spell, and the stronger its strength."

Xu Dao pondered over the introduction to the step of planting spiritual roots in the book, and concluded in his mind:
"If I want to build a foundation, regardless of whether it is immortal or martial arts, I have to plant spiritual roots after the completion of Qi and body refining! Among them, the foundation of the immortal way needs to hunt down gods, ghosts and gods to obtain their spirituality and refine their talents. Martial arts build Ji, you need to hunt down monsters and goblins, get their essence and blood, and turn them into bones."

"Only in this way can we sense the world and break through the limit!"

"Of course, the specific means don't necessarily have to rely on hunting, and you can also draw blood from the flesh..."

After thinking about it, the fog in Xu Dao's mind disappeared, and he suddenly felt that the way forward was feasible.
