Clan Cultivation: I Transmigrated With My Smartphone

Chapter 887 682: Celestial Destiny Lamp, Qi Refining Twelfth Layer (Part 2)

But there were still some cultivators who remained silent, seemingly pondering something.

"Interesting, is this the Heavenly Dao accelerating the selection of the Chosen One? The Heavenly Dao seems a bit impatient!" Lu Xuanji operated his Primordial Spirit, sensing the Heavenly Dao, urging the Heavenly Dao Authority, gathering some information, continuously calculating, and speculating the meaning within.

The invasion of the Feiyu World was accelerating, causing the Heavenly Dao of the Purple Mansion World to sense a tremendous crisis.

In the face of crisis, the Heavenly Dao began to interfere and accelerate certain matters.

When cultivators reach the Harmonization Realm, they can perceive celestial secrets a year ahead, sensing various changes in the world, gaining a portion of the Heavenly Dao Authority, further communicating with the Heavenly Dao, and accepting the various thoughts and responsibilities transmitted by the Heavenly Dao.

If one's cultivation is too strong, the Heavenly Dao will place restrictions on the cultivator. If a Harmonization Cultivator wants to do certain things, but doing these things would disrupt the order between heaven and earth, then the Heavenly Dao will stop you; if one bullies another recklessly, tribulation is certain.

If certain cultivators appear in the world, seeking to disrupt order.

The Heavenly Dao will mysteriously assign tasks to certain cultivators to stop them, and if they succeed, they will receive immense benefits.

Not long ago, many Harmonization Cultivators and Tribulation Crossing Cultivators willingly offered a tenth of their fortune for crowdfunding because the Heavenly Dao had issued a decree they could not refuse.

Reflecting on this, Lu Xuanji's mind flickered, a thread of Divine Thought descended into the Spiritual Realm.

...

The void was changing as a thread of Divine Thought entered the Spiritual Realm.

The Divine Thought was forming a shape, transforming into his appearance.

Lu Xuanji sensed his surroundings, only to find them shrouded in gray fog, with no clear direction. Searching around, he couldn't find a single person or any cultivator.

His figure flickered, and he began to walk within the Spiritual Realm. After some time, he decisively chose to give up.

"How to find the Celestial Destiny Lamp?"

Lu Xuanji pondered, urging his Primordial Spirit, which was sensing everything within the Spiritual Realm, perceiving the mysterious void.

Suddenly, laws were revealing themselves, mysteries were revealing themselves.

Intuition was elevating in the void, continuously improving his understanding of various principles and his comprehension of various Divine Thoughts, feeling a unique sensation, as if undergoing a new transformation.

"So that's it, I seem to be lacking in understanding past realms. I know the 'what' without knowing the 'why,' and there are still loopholes in the understanding of some issues, with many deficiencies..." Sensing the Heavenly Dao Origin, Lu Xuanji's mind was in a daze.

Sitting cross-legged at his original spot, he began to meditate.

What is cultivation?

Cultivate the void, seek the true self!

Everyone lives illusorily, like bubbles in someone's dream, only by seeking the true self can one walk out of the illusory dream and transform into the real true self.

What is the secret of cultivation?

Refining essence into Qi, refining Qi into Spirit, refining Spirit and Returning to Void, refining Void and Harmonization, these sixteen words encompass the secret of cultivation.

Refining essence into Qi means that a cultivator should eat food, consume various Spirit Medicines, Elixirs, etc., and after digesting them, directly extract True Qi from the essence and essence blood. The moment the first thread of True Qi is extracted, it's stepping into the First Layer of Qi Refining.

Starting from the First Layer of Qi Refining to the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining, it is all about the accumulation of Qi.

Once a cultivator reaches the First Layer of Qi Refining, they can fast, avoiding common earthly sustenance, and extract energy from Spiritual Qi to replenish their own loss. Meanwhile, Spiritual Qi transforms the cultivator's being, transforming the cultivator's physique, granting the strength of nine oxen and two tigers, with a physique like Vajra.

Even if it is only the First Layer of Qi Refining, one can roam invincibly among mortals.

Upon reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm, True Qi begins to liquefy, capable of bearing more magical power.

The Purple Mansion Realm further provides feedback from True Qi and essence to the Divine Soul, enhancing its Spiritual Power.

The Golden Core Realm sees the unification of essence, Qi, and spirit into an Immortal Golden Core. It can also utilize Pure Yang True Flame to temper the physique, making the entire body as lustrous as Liuli, free from disease, living for a millennium without death.

Further beyond, the Golden Core shatters, transforming into an infant, akin to an egg breaking open and a chick emerging.

During Divinity Transformation, the Nascent Soul metamorphoses into the Primordial Spirit, allowing for close perception of the Great Dao, comprehension of the birth and death of mysteries. The Primordial Spirit can calculate all things, deduce the mysteries of all techniques. A powerful physique allows for limb regeneration, blood rebirth, such that even if the head or heart shatters, battle continues, provided the Primordial Spirit remains unharmed.

Reaching the Void Refining Realm, there are various wondrous methods. Marvelous and powerful, the physical body can expand as large as hundreds of feet, manifest heaven and earth, or shrink to dust, hiding within the void. The flesh can convert into blood and flesh or be entirely energy, transforming into a stream of air, coalescing into form, dispersing into airflow.

With magical power so strong, capable of tearing space, instigating instantaneous movement, rapid movement.

Capable of crushing the void, refining the Power of Space within it, opening Grotto Heaven within the body.

At the Harmonization Realm, one controls a portion of the Heavenly Dao Authority, with one's magical power as the foundation, drives it to the extreme, breaks through the blockage of current space-time, sensing deeper past events; could also peek into the future, foresee a specific danger, turn misfortune into fortune, avert calamity.

Harmonization Cultivators are notoriously difficult to kill because they can perceive the past, foresee the future, understand changes in the Heavenly Dao, and various tribulations, allowing them to avoid schemes and disasters, making it very hard to die, realizing "immortality."

Defeating a Harmonization Cultivator is easy, but killing one is exceedingly difficult.

For they possess too many life-saving means.

A seemingly dead Harmonization Cultivator might just have happened to reincarnate elsewhere.

Reaching the Tribulation Crossing Realm means gradually abandoning the Heavenly Dao Authority, progressively transcending the world's restrictions, the Heavenly Dao's limitations. During this process, Tribulation Crossing Cultivators can discern their own fate, harness their own luck, deplete their own destiny, repaying the Heavenly Dao's cause and effect.

By sacrificing their destiny to the Heavenly Dao, they can reduce tribulations.

...

Within the Spiritual Realm, perceiving these, Lu Xuanji fell into enlightenment.

In the outside world, Lu Xuanji closed his eyes and fell into martial arts. As Dao enlightenment continued, the aura on his body was declining from the Harmonization Realm to the Void Refining Realm, Divinity Transformation, Nascent Soul, Golden Core, all the way down to the First Layer of Qi Refining, finally falling to a mortal.

"His cultivation is declining!"

"Harmonization, falling to a mortal!"

"How could this be, he has deviated in his cultivation practice!"

"Haha, this is a calamity!"

Seeing Lu Xuanji's cultivation declining, seemingly in a state of deviation.

Many cultivators were secretly delighted, full of pride.

Many cultivators cannot bear to see someone doing well, rejoicing when someone is unlucky.

"That's not right! There was no danger in the Spiritual Realm, how could he deviate in his cultivation!" Witnessing this, the Celestial Monarch inquired suspiciously, feeling something was amiss, something inconsistent with the norms.

To become a Harmonization Cultivator, who among them is not favored by the Heavenly Dao? In the struggle for destiny, vying for the Chosen One, cultivators fight tooth and nail, killing each other with countless deaths and injuries, which does not conform to the principles of the Heavenly Dao. Hence, the Heavenly Dao evolved into the supreme Spiritual Realm, providing many cultivators the opportunity to compete within it.

Even when battling in the Spiritual Realm, if one fails and perishes, only a thread of Divine Thought is lost.

It doesn't inflict great damage on the cultivator, nor does it cause deviation in practice.

Buzz buzz!

Just as the Celestial Monarch was perplexed, Lu Xuanji's aura was rising, crossing into the First Layer of Qi Refining, then the Second Layer of Qi Refining, Third Layer of Qi Refining... continuously rising, reaching the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining.

Upon reaching the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining, he did not directly break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm but instead entered the Tenth Layer of Qi Refining.

Subsequently, a shackle appeared, suppressing everything.

After some time, the shackle was broken, entering the Eleventh Layer of Qi Refining, and ultimately the Twelfth Layer of Qi Refining.

At the Twelfth Layer of Qi Refining, his aura was as mighty as the sea, the Dao charm on him flickering, seemingly transforming distinctly differently.

Yet the celestial secret was obscured, making him appear to others as merely suitable for the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining.
