Longevity begins with the sword of ignorance

Chapter 273 The Shadow of the Ancient God
To make great ambitions is to borrow money from God, and the consequences of not paying it back are very serious.

Under such circumstances, why would Zhong Cang have such great ambitions?

This is naturally because he is in a hurry.

Zhong Cang has not forgotten that the main purpose of teaching Tianxin the secret method has never been to benefit the world, nor to repay the Yunxiao Sect, but to gather the insights of others and improve himself.

When it comes to teaching the Dharma - understanding by others - and giving back to oneself, the twelve tones of the Yujing Tianlou are the only connection between the three.

Because of this, its importance in Zhong Cang's heart is extremely high.

How much feedback the reverberation of this technique can give represents how much Zhong Cang will gain tomorrow.

In order to maximize profits, it is the most profitable way to upgrade the Twelve Sounds of Yujing Tianlou to a fifth-level master before the teaching begins.

Of course, if anyone is around Zhong Cang, they will find that his prayer to God is not to directly upgrade his skills to the fifth level of master, but to upgrade his skills to the fourth level of perfection.

This is to borrow less.

In the world of cultivating immortals, there will be a bottleneck in cultivating the skills to perfection. Only by breaking through the bottleneck can you enter the next level.

Although breaking through the bottleneck only requires a little proficiency, this little proficiency requires extremely high understanding and opportunity.

There is a saying from a previous life that best describes this situation - Genius is 99% perspiration and 1% inspiration.

But that 1% of inspiration is more important than 99% of sweat.

The bottleneck breakthrough is the inspiration of the 1%.

Therefore, the difficulty of improving a skill from perfection to breakthrough is comparable to cultivating a master-level skill from scratch to perfection.

If he relies on the power of his ambition to break through the realm, Zhong Cang needs to borrow at least twice the amount of merit.

On the contrary, if you only cultivate to perfection, Zhong Cang will gain very little merit from borrowing money.

"Om..."

While Zhong Cang was thinking, a ray of consciousness from Tiandao was also searching for Zhong Cang's message.

——The way of heaven is impartial and selfless, but it does not open a charity hall. Not everyone can borrow strength from God.

And even if you can borrow, the amount of borrowing varies from person to person.

There is no doubt that Zhong Cang is qualified and the loan limit is extremely high.

Therefore, in an instant, Heavenly Dao responded to Zhong Cang.

"Moo..."

In order to maintain the unity of body and mind, the Twelve Sounds of Yujing Tianlou is also a sound wave practice method involving the soul.

This caused the Heavenly Dao to respond to Zhong Cang, but it did not appear to the outside world. Instead, a fierce, weird, and twisted sacred voice sounded in Zhong Cang's soul.

"Moo!!!"

The moment this voice sounded, Zhong Cang's consciousness sank.

When he opened his eyes again, Zhong Cang found that he had fallen into a special historical illusion.

In that illusion, there was a stargazer who relied on special instruments to observe the changes in the stars, hoping to observe the future trajectory from the changes in the stars.

And when he relied on the instrument to project his mind into the void for observation, there was a "boom..." and an accident happened.

There is a vast, majestic, and weirdly twisted and magnificent shadow, slowly emerging from the void, and then gradually hiding.

The figure was too huge, and its body shape felt indescribable and incomprehensible.

Filtered by the shadow of history, Zhong Cang only felt that the figure was vast, sacred, terrifying, twisted, and uniquely beautiful.

The roaring sound when He jumped out was even more divine, intoxicating and intoxicating, like the most beautiful music in the world.

But if you listen carefully, you can hear them overlapping again and again, as if hundreds of millions of people are whispering evil whispers in their ears.

In short, it was a twisted, weird, and contradictory figure.

Yes, Zhong Cang's impression of that great shadow was distorted in the end.

Although he had seen it, Zhong Cang couldn't describe the monster image in words. He couldn't even picture it in his mind.

This made Zhong Cang a little regretful.

But soon, the regret turned into palpitations, and Zhong Cang understood even more clearly that the projection of history given by the Heavenly Dao did not allow him to see the figure of that great thing clearly. It was not hiding his clumsiness, but protecting it.

The great shadow just jumped out of the void and returned to the void. In the process, he didn't care about anything around him and didn't make any attack.

But just such an ordinary passing by made the stargazers who witnessed it go crazy.

His soul couldn't bear such pollution and became a little crazy.

——He truly witnessed the great shadow, and there was no way of heaven to filter out the hidden pollution.

This made the twisted and great shadow become clearer and deeper in his sea of ​​consciousness, and this also made the stargazing monk's mind filled with only the twisted and sacred figure.

And the distorted sound that was very vague in the cockle ears became increasingly clear in the ears of the stargazer.

From that special distorted sound, he created a music technique. Because he was tortured by the great shadow and the distorted sound day and night, the stargazer went crazy and regarded the great shadow as a fairy. worship.

And the sound skills he created were naturally imagined by him as divine sounds, and he named them the Twelve Sounds of Yujing Tianlou...

Seeing this, Zhong Cang narrowed his eyes and determined one thing - the water in this world is very deep!

Before Zhong Cang could continue watching, there was a "bang", and the historical fantasy in Zhong Cang's mind was completely shattered like a mirror.

Then, as soon as his soul cleared, Zhong Cang's consciousness returned to his heart.

At the same time, the great shadow and the distorted and magnificent voice gradually blurred in Zhong Cang's sea of ​​consciousness.

Soon, the great shadow completely dissipated from Zhong Cang's memory, while the distorted sound was much slower.

And the voice that had been blurred by Heavenly Dao, although much less beautiful than the original, still made Zhong Cang feel a lot of emotions.

These insights led to the rapid growth of the twelve tones of Yujing Tianlou. In just one stick of incense, this huge amount of insights raised this skill to the level of perfection in the four realms. "call……"

When the realm was perfect, Zhong Cang originally thought that the distorted sound would disappear.

But, it happened by accident.

The twisted sound did not disappear, but continued to ring in Zhong Cang's ears, giving Zhong Cang a lot of insights.

"???"

"Why? Does Heaven want me to break through? But I didn't borrow so many things?"

"Could it be that the way of heaven still involves people who buy and sell by force?"

This scene shocked Zhong Cang.

Fortunately, after calming down and thinking about it carefully, Zhong Cang realized that he had misunderstood the way of heaven.

Although, for ordinary people in the world, and even monks, the way of heaven that integrates all spirits and controls the laws of heaven and earth is Haotian, God, who can do almost everything.

However, obviously, Tiandao cannot see through Zhong Cang's attribute panel.

Therefore, it doesn't know that Zhong Cang has a permanent certificate and a heavenly reward for hard work. As long as he understands it, his proficiency will be +1.

Because he didn't realize that it was giving Zhong Cang enlightenment according to the genius of a peerless monster.

Normally, according to Heaven's calculations, after Zhong Cang digests his insights, he will be able to upgrade the Twelve Sounds of Yujing Tianlou to the perfection of the four realms.

But the existence of Tianxin makes Zhong Cang's understanding belong to the level of a monster.

This talent is superimposed on the attribute panel, and Zhong Cang's understanding is beyond the norm.

That's it, not counting the fact that Zhong Cang can ignore the bottleneck and force a breakthrough.

If this is added, Zhong Cang's understanding is beyond the ordinary.

……

"So, God has given me more."

Such a scene made Zhong Cang feel dumbfounded.

After sighing with emotion, Zhong Cang did not accept the benefits silently, but returned the gift of heaven.

It's not that Zhong Cang doesn't want to take advantage, but that God is impartial and selfless.

This selflessness means that the magnificent Heavenly Dao will not specifically target Zhong Cang, but it also means that He will not specifically be kind to Zhong Cang.

To the way of heaven, one is one, two is two, there is no in-between.

Therefore, returning the excess part can return part of Zhong Cang's borrowed merit in advance.

"Om..."

Maintaining the state of unity between heaven and man, this made Zhong Cang return the gift of heaven with a thought.

At the same time, when returning, Tiandao also sent a message.

After Zhong Cang's interpretation, he knew that this time, he only consumed one-third of the gift from heaven.

At the same time, he also knew how much merit he owed.

"Thirty... small achievements!"

"It's not much, but it's not easy to make money."

Because all killings in the world are part of the cycle of heaven and earth, it is impossible to obtain heavenly merit by doing good deeds in the normal sense.

No matter how many evil people kill, they will not have the slightest impact on the way of heaven.

What can affect the way of heaven is to sort out the siltation of the earth's veins, or turn barren mountains and deserts into spiritual places.

——Normally speaking, the desert is also part of the cycle of heaven.

However, the growth of the way of heaven requires the integration of the heavenly soul and the earthly soul after all the souls have died.

There is no doubt that the desert is a restricted area for life, and there is not much life there. This means that although they do not cause any loss to the way of heaven, they also do not gain much.

And if the restricted area without life is transformed into a forest, life will grow and multiply here. In this way, their spirituality after death will return to the way of heaven and promote the growth of heaven. This makes it possible to transform the desert. Meritorious.

"Wait a minute, you can gain merit by sorting out the siltation of the earth's veins and transforming the inanimate forbidden land into a place where life thrives... The Dragon Clan is arranged in the mountains and rivers, spreading clouds and rain. Is this sorting out the earth's veins and accumulating merit!"

Thinking that the Dragon Clan had been planning this for tens of thousands of years, Zhong Cang felt for the first time the richness and terror of the Dragon Clan's heritage.

"No wonder the Dao Sect has never had a large-scale war with the Dragon Clan, only small quarrels. It is indeed not a good choice to start a war with them rashly."

……

Turning the desert into a forest is a way to accumulate merit.

And because the way of heaven requires spirituality, and human beings are the most spiritually abundant and easiest to reproduce among all things in nature, this makes it far better to convert deserts into forests than into mulberry fields.

This method was indeed good, but Zhong Cang finally gave up because he had a better method.

"The spirituality needed by Heaven's Dao requires not only quantity, but also quality. Supporting the human race to multiply in the desert is not as fast as teaching the law. With thirty small skills, I only need to upgrade thirty Qi-training monks to foundation-building That’s it.”

Of course, when choosing someone to teach, Zhong Cang couldn't choose a Qi-training monk who already had a chance to build a foundation.

That was their own efforts, not counting Zhong Cang's merits.

By guiding the monks who only have half the chance to build the foundation to complete the foundation building, Zhong Cang can complete the accumulation of merit.

"It's not difficult. If things don't go as expected, I can finish it tomorrow, and there will even be extra merit!"

"At that time, you can choose another technique to pray for improvement."
