Bloodline Ares

Chapter 455 The Essence of Practice

After the conflict between the Haijiao Clan and the Xia Clan last time, the entire Xia Clan has calmed down a lot. Both Xia Zhong and Xia Lie were grounded and were not allowed to step out of the house.

Without the little fat Xia Lie to pester him every day, Xia Chen seemed to be much more relaxed, so he began to think about his own practice. After all, since he passed through the thunder tribulation three times, he has been entangled in trifles and has no time to spend well. practiced.

After going through three thunder tribulations, Xia Chen felt that he still had some deficiencies. It was his own accumulated deficiencies. The Immortal Spirit Body still needs to be improved, and his Fantian Sealing Technique has not been able to change. He could clearly feel the insufficiency of Fantian Sealing Technique, but he still couldn't perfect it.

These are the areas that Xia Chen needs to strengthen. If these are perfected, Xia Chen's accumulation will be more profound, and he will even be able to survive several thunder disasters in a row.

Others have survived the thunder tribulation passively for a hundred years, unlike Xia Chen, who spends all day thinking about strengthening his strength and going to take the initiative to survive the thunder tribulation, but it is precisely because Xia Chen is so active that he is so aggressive towards Lei Jie. Jie's awe is greatly reduced, but he can easily survive the thunder disaster.

However, Xia Chen is not only satisfied with surviving the thunder tribulation, he thinks further, what he thinks of now is how to go on the road of cultivation after becoming a true spirit?
In fact, until now, Xia Chen's practice has been groping alone, which is good, that is, he doesn't have to follow the steps, and can fully develop his potential.

However, there are also disadvantages, that is, without clear guidance, I am very confused about my future practice path, and may even go astray, wasting time and energy in vain.

There are advantages and disadvantages, and I can't say good or bad, but in Xia Chen's state now, it is best to need someone to guide, but in the entire Xia Clan, most of them follow the road of blood, even Xia Chen's father Xia Baichuan, a majestic general, also walked the road of blood, so he couldn't guide Xia Chen's practice.

Xia Chen thought about returning to Brahma City, and humbly ask Mr. Chun or Lu Guang for advice, but these two people are not suitable. Mr. Chun is obsessed with swordsmanship, and his experience is not suitable for Xia Chen.

As for Lu Guang, he is just an ordinary true spirit, also a "Ye Luzi", who has not received guidance, and has become a true spirit through bumps and bumps. Asking them, I'm afraid they won't be able to help Xia Chen too much.

Just when Xia Chen was worried about this time, his father suddenly called Xia Chen to the living room.

In the living room, Xia Baichuan said with a mysterious face: "Chen'er, you have been in the Xia Clan for so long, and as a father, you have never been able to guide you in cultivation. Your current practice is actually the most critical period, although you have passed through it three times. Thunder Tribulation, but there are still six Thunder Tribulations to pass, if you are not careful, you will be in danger. But for my father, I am walking the road of blood, and I am not proficient in the practice of you practitioners. Therefore, during this period of time, for my father I visited a strong practitioner in the clan and asked him to guide your practice, so you follow me to visit that strong practitioner now."

Xia Chen was overjoyed, he was worried that there was no one to guide him, but he didn't expect that his father had already selected a mentor for him.Therefore, Xia Chen immediately agreed, and followed his father outside.

He didn't worry at all whether that strong practitioner was qualified to guide him. After all, it was definitely not ordinary people who could fall into his father's eyes.

Soon, Xia Chen and his father came to a mansion, but this mansion was located in a remote place, and the surrounding was very quiet, it was a good place to concentrate on cultivation.

Xia Baichuan is a divine general of the Xia clan, with a high status, so when the servants saw Xia Baichuan, they took Xia Baichuan directly to the living room to wait.

After a while, there was a handsome and elegant man in a white shirt, but his eyes revealed endless vicissitudes. It seemed that he was a very old practitioner.

Especially the aura emanating from his body made Xia Chen slightly startled, because this man was actually a true spirit, and a powerful true spirit at that.Xia Chen would not be surprised if he saw a powerful true spirit in Brahma City, but you must know that this is the Xia Clan, and most people walk the road of blood, so seeing a powerful true spirit is naturally very rare.

"Senior Xia Gu, this is the dog Xia Chen."

For this middle-aged man, his father actually respected him very much.

Xia Chen also hastily saluted and said: "Xia Chen pays his respects to Senior Xia Gu."

"You are Xia Chen? That's right, very good. A member of our Xia clan who has become a cultivator has a genius like you. I really didn't expect, old thirteen, you gave birth to a good son!"

Xia Gu looked Xia Chen up and down, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it. Obviously, he also saw Xia Chen's details. A practitioner who has built a foundation is undoubtedly a quasi-true spirit. The possibility of a true spirit is high.

This is undoubtedly very rare among the Xia Clan.Although the Xia Clan does not reject those who take the path of cultivation, there are still very few people who are willing to become practitioners. Most of them are ordinary people who have not awakened the power of their bloodlines. It is only a handful of people who have achieved something after becoming practitioners. number.

A cultivator like Xia Chen, among the cultivators of the Xia Clan, is almost a top talent that is rarely seen in a thousand years. It is no wonder that Xia Gu likes it more and more.

"Chen'er, senior Xia Gu is a very ancient true spirit of our Xia clan, even the number one god general has to be honored as a senior! Moreover, senior Xia Gu is already the ninth level of the true spirit, and he is only one step away from Chunyang Yes, you must study hard from Senior Xia Gu."

Hearing his father's words, Xia Chen's eyes lit up. He didn't expect that this senior Xia Gu had such a high status in the Xia clan, and it was really not easy to be able to cultivate to the ninth level of true spirit.Even in Brahma City, the existence of the Nine Layers of True Spirits is absolutely rare, and they are absolutely powerful.

As long as he can take a step forward, he is a high and mighty pure yang powerhouse.

"Very good, old thirteen, don't worry, Xia Chen is a genius among practitioners, I will try my best to pass on some cultivation knowledge and my cultivation experience to him."

"Then there is Senior Lao Xiagu."

After Xia Baichuan finished speaking, he took his leave and left, leaving Xia Chen here alone.

"Xia Chen, follow me."

Xia Gu took Xia Chen to an underground secret room, looking at the furnishings in the secret room, it should be the place where Xia Gu often practiced.

"Don't be restrained, sit down."

Xia Gu saw that Xia Chen was still a little restrained, so he said with a slight smile.

Xia Chen nodded, and sat opposite Xia Gu. He was a little curious about Xia Gu, because he could only feel the surging real spirit in Xia Gu's body, but he didn't feel any blood power.

"Are you curious that you can't feel the power of my blood?"

Xia Gu seemed to know what Xia Chen was thinking, and asked with a smile.

"Senior, you are also a member of the Xia clan, why don't you have the power of blood?"

Xia Chen asked curiously.

"It's not that I don't have the power of blood, but that I have already turned it into the core of the Dao of Fire, so it's normal that you can't sense it."

"The core of the Avenue of Fire?"

Xia Chen was a little puzzled, because he had only heard of Daoji, what is the core of the Dao?
"No hurry, I will explain to you slowly. But before explaining, let me ask you, have you already built the Dao foundation?"

"Yes, I passed the test of the Dayan Shrine back then, and I was lucky enough to build the Dao Foundation."

Xia Chen didn't hide anything, and said directly.

"You still passed the test of Dayan Shrine? Yes, it's really good. It's beyond my expectation. No wonder you can build a Dao foundation, and there's more than one kind of Dao foundation, right?"

Xia Gu asked meaningfully, it can be seen that Xia Chen has more than one kind of Dao foundation, it is indeed very powerful.

Xia Chen nodded and said: "Senior is amazing, I have not only one Dao foundation, but two Dao foundations, namely Illusion Dao foundation and Thunder Fire Dao foundation."

"I see."

Xia Gu took a deep breath, as if trying to organize his words.

"Then do you know what we practitioners are practicing?"

"What is practicing?"

Xia Chen was slightly taken aback. He used to only care about cultivation and improving his strength. He only knew that if his cultivation base was high, his strength would naturally be very strong. How could he think about what he was cultivating?
But now that he thought about it carefully, he was really a little confused.

Xia Gu didn't care too much, he was very optimistic about Xia Chen, so he said in a very calm tone: "We are cultivating the Tao!"

"road?"

Xia Chen was still puzzled.

"That's right, it's Tao! What is Tao? Actually, it's not that profound. It's the rules of heaven and earth. Isn't the ultimate goal of our practitioners to control the laws of heaven and earth, and even control the entire world, to gain invincible power? Therefore, we start from one From the very beginning, one cultivates the Tao.”

"You are only in the realm of life and death now, and you have already built the Dao foundation. It can be regarded as starting to touch the Dao. Your Illusion Dao foundation and Thunder Fire Dao foundation are actually the power of Dao."

Xia Chen has already somewhat understood that the reason why practitioners are powerful is that they can use the power of Tao, in fact, they can use the power of heaven and earth instead of developing themselves.

Those who develop themselves are the Protoss. They are the darlings of heaven and earth, and their blood contains terrifying power. Of course, they must make the best use of everything and develop the power of their blood.

Practitioners are different, they are very weak beings. All kinds of forces in the world may cause a large number of human deaths. This is the sorrow of weak beings.

However, weak beings can become practitioners and gradually master the power of heaven and earth. This is the essence of cultivation, and it is not as mysterious and profound as described in many scriptures.

Seeing that Xia Chen has understood the essence of cultivation, Xia Gu also nodded in satisfaction, and continued: "Since you have already understood the essence of cultivation, do you know what is going on at the true spirit level?"

"Senior, please clarify."

Xia Chen listened carefully, he felt that senior Xia Gu had a very clear understanding of cultivation, and this was exactly the guidance he dreamed of getting, so naturally he needed to treat it with full attention.

Satisfied with Xia Chen's serious attitude, Xia Gu explained: "In the realm of life and death, if a practitioner can build a Dao foundation, then at the moment of becoming a true spirit, the Dao foundation will transform into the core of the Dao. , This is the path that true spirits will take in the future, and there is no way out, they must go on unswervingly. If you have doubts about the way you are walking, then the core of the avenue may collapse, and the true spirit will die. "

"So, many true spirits did not die in battle, nor did they die in accidents, but because they doubted their own path, so they collapsed and died, which can be regarded as suicide."

Xia Gu's words made Xia Chen dumbfounded, it turned out that the true spirit powerhouse would have such a strange way of death.In his opinion, true spirit powerhouses have eternal life and are free, so based on this calculation, there should be a lot of true spirit powerhouses.

But in fact, although there are true spirit powerhouses among the major forces, they are not many at all. Many true spirit powerhouses are so inexplicable that they collapsed and died because they doubted their own way.
