Since I reached the third level of Yin-Yang Taoism, Qiu Cunzhi no longer forced me to practice. I picked up the ghost Tao spells and started practicing.
As for practicing the ghost way, of course Song Wanyi and Jiang Han must be brought along, but now the two ghosts have not advanced.
I set up a large Yin Gathering Formation with a big flag, gathered all the ghost energy into the cave, and drew a soul gathering formation, ready to absorb the two ghost generals into my body for cultivation.
"Inhabiting Ziwei, thousands of ghosts are hidden, and ghosts borrow magic! Collect souls!" I put my hands together, activated the formation, took Song Wanyi and Jiang Han into my body, and started practicing.
Master saw that I had made such a big show and came over to see how I was practicing. When he saw this, he immediately shook his head and waited quietly beside me.
After several hours, I released Song Wanyi and Jiang Han. Seeing that their cultivation had improved significantly, I felt quite comfortable and had a hint of pride on their expressions.
Qiu Cunzhi looked like he was before, but he quickly poured cold water on me: "No wonder your ghost general advanced so quickly. He used such opportunistic methods, but didn't he know that this was also a way of counterproductive?
Cultivation is fast, but it is not solid. The partners under your command all have their own special characteristics in cultivation and have different attributes. For example, General Jiang Han has the wood attribute, while Lady Song has the wood attribute.
It's not appropriate for you to use all of the water attributes to forcibly elevate them. The further you enter, the characteristics will gradually disappear. In addition, your current cultivation level is too poor, and the balance between priorities is unclear, so you get half the result with twice the effort."
After all, it was a cultivation method that I picked at random, and I never thought about the various problems that would arise later in attribute cultivation. Only when Qiu Cunzhi raised it did I know the extent of this hidden danger.
This world is fair, and there are gains and losses, so there is no perfect cultivation method.
"Master, what should I do?" I asked quickly. With Master's guidance, I have grown a lot recently, so I trust him very much in my cultivation.
"First improve your own strength and enter the Tao, then you will know, right?" Master asked me, and leisurely took a pot of tea and drank it.
"Master, are you kidding me? It's not that easy to enter the Tao. I'm only in the late stage of seeking the Tao. I won't be able to get a glimpse of the Tao until the late stage. At this rate, Master, I estimate it will take half a year before I can enter the Tao." I immediately became depressed.
, to be able to enter the Tao, I no longer rely so much on Jiang Han and the others.
"Half a year? Are you bragging? With the way you practice, you won't be able to enter the Tao in ten years!" After hearing this, the master almost spit tea in my face with laughter.
"Ah?" I was stunned for a moment. Could it be that I can't enter the Tao even after ten years of practicing this method? I took that old god Lian Geng's powerful pill, which cost 240 million, but I still can't enter the Tao?
"What ghost generals pursue is the ghost way. There are no restrictions on the way to become a ghost king. Once you reach the level of cultivation, it will be a matter of course. However, people have their own ways. Now you rely on the ghost generals to attack your cultivation level for you. This is your way?"
Master, let me tell you this, even if your physical cultivation has reached the ultimate stage of seeking the Tao, you still can't break through the barriers of entering the Tao. This is the origin of the saying that everyone has his own destiny. This is also why some cultivators stop entering the Tao throughout their lives, and then have no choice but to do so.
The reason why he entered the ghost realm with soldiers and then used another way of cultivation to pursue the ultimate in cultivation." Qiu Cunzhi explained with a smile.
When I heard this, I suddenly felt bad. My Dao lineage is complicated. How should I enter the Dao? Enter the Dao through the ghost path? Or enter the Dao through yin and yang?
Master intends for me to upgrade the Yin-Yang Taoism to the third level recently. Does he want me to enter Taoism from this point of entry? Then don’t I have to give up the Ghost Taoism? Give up the Chaozu Taoism, or the Four Little Immortals Taoism?
"Master, do I want to use the Yin-Yang Taoism as the entry point into Taoism? Give up all Taoism? Isn't this possible?" I asked after pondering.
"There is no need for this. You can steadily improve all the Taoism and enter the Tao at the same time. Wouldn't it be enough? Once the master of all the Taoism has realized the Tao, his achievements will be limitless. Of course, giving up is also a virtue. It depends on your understanding and opportunities.
"Yes, this is the consequence of your over-reliance on ghost generals. Nowadays, there is no distinction between priorities and everything is half a bucket of water. Only a few ghost generals stand out and are far better than you. Don't you feel ashamed?" Qiu
The way to resolve doubts.
When I heard that it was so difficult to enter Taoism, I couldn't help but feel distressed. But now it's hard to get off the tiger. Since Master said so, there must be a way, so I asked: "Master, how can I quickly enter the stage of Taoism?"
"In addition to practicing, you also need to realize. If you are less dependent, you will grow much faster. Others can enter the Tao faster because they are independent, but you often rely on ghost generals and lack the perseverance. Go ahead.
Go for a walk alone so that I can teach your ghost generals and let them consolidate their foundation." Qiu Cunzhi waved his hand, as if he wanted to drive me away.
I was stunned on the spot, where do you think I was going? This was Tang Monk’s rhythm to drive away Sun Wukong!
"Master, where am I going?" I almost cried out of fear. Without the ghost general, would I have to die without a burial place?
"How do I know where you are going? Aren't you very good at jumping? Why did you ask about being a teacher instead? All in all, I won't let you take a single ghost with you this time. Once you enter the Tao and come back, then not only will you
As their strength increases, their control over the Ghost King stage will also become more perfect." Qiu Cunzhi persuaded.
I thought it was a trap, but Master said it, and it seemed like I really had to jump.
However, I have never left Guijiang since Xiaoyitun. When I really wanted to do this, I hesitated a little.
Song Wanyi, Jiang Han and other ghost generals were all around, looking reluctant to leave, but more of a caring and protective look inside them.
I understood the worry in their eyes, so I sighed, knowing that over-reliance had given the ghost generals the idea that it would be dangerous for me to go out alone. I needed to change this situation and become a stand-alone person.
people.
I need to be their solid backing, rather than them being my backer.
"I'll go up by myself. You all stay and listen to Master's instructions." I said, looking at Xijun who was holding on to my clothes.
"Brother, I won't bring the mountain ghost with me this time. Can I go with you?" Xijun stared at me, looking forward to it.
"Xijun, please stay here, be obedient and don't cause trouble. My brother will take you with him when he reaches the stage of cultivation." I said, feeling a little reluctant to let go, but I couldn't let the ghosts underestimate me.
"Brother, how long will you be there?"
"Occasionally I will come back to practice." Although I know this is unlikely, once I go up, it will be out of my hands. The underworld is not as good as the underworld. With my strength, unless I go under the Four Little Immortals Taoist Temple, it will be dangerous wherever I go.
fear.
"Your friend, the Corpse King, will also look after it for you as a teacher. If you can't do anything wrong, the box should be stored here. Oh, by the way, you can't bring something that defies heaven like the Yin Yang Order." Qiu Cunzhi added.
I was speechless. I just thought that the Yin Yang Order could save me. But with Master's serious expression, he definitely didn't want me to resist.
Who makes the master so powerful? He also calls it euphemistically, training my will.
I could only take out my shoulder bag and keep two boxes, a ghost coffin, and the Yin Yang Order.
I glanced at my backpack, and there were still a dozen blue talismans, half a kilogram of magic salt, and a bunch of formation flags left.
"Master, I am a bachelor now. There are many dangers up there. Do you plan to protect me secretly?" I asked expectantly. This situation is really too dangerous!
"Delusion, you have entrusted such a huge family fortune, so many family ghosts, and more than a dozen corpse kings, and you still plan to let your master protect you secretly? You are so beautiful." Qiu Cunzhi glared at me.
Several ghost generals snickered, and Liu Xiaomiao also stayed this time. I was alone and couldn't even bring my life card.
"By the way, when you have time, go to the ten directions sea and bring back two ancient books. Don't leave them there." Master also gave me this arduous task.
Thinking of the countless ghost sharks in the sea, my expression suddenly changed. With such strength, wouldn't it be a death wish to go to the ten seas?
"Go ahead, I know you will definitely be able to enter the Tao!" Qiu Cunzhi smiled kindly.
I gritted my teeth, picked up my backpack, and took out Chen Shanyun's life card, trying to summon her outside the cave, but Qiu Cunzhi took the life card away.
"Disciple, what are you doing? You want to summon ghost generals now? You are dependent! You are too dependent! If you don't get beaten, you won't have a long memory!" Qiu Cunzhi turned to the teacup in anger and picked up the ruler.
Come.
"This doesn't work either... Then how do I find the island? Master doesn't know, maybe Chen Shanyun only remembers the location of the island where the books are stored!" I muttered and ran away.
"Don't you have a map in your backpack? Do you still want to fool me as a teacher? Even if there is no mark, the boundary of the world of the world passes through the small island, how can you forget the location?" Qiu Cunzhi was furious.
Seeing that I was about to be beaten, I immediately put down my life card obediently and fled out of the cave as fast as I could: "Yin and yang transposition, five elements transformation, yin and yang borrowing method! Reversal!"
A dozen meters around, the yin energy suddenly returned to yang. I converted the yin and yang directly outside the cave, making this place have a yang energy that is no less than the Tao of Returning Yang.
I have put on the household items that the yin and yang share the world.
After so many days, things here should have calmed down a bit. After a period of thick fog, I arrived at the square of the Sixiaoxian Taoist Temple.
However, standing in front of the Taoist temple and looking at the scene in front of me, even though I was prepared, I still felt extremely uncomfortable.
The Taoist temple entrusted to me by Senior Brother Liu was burned down, and all the houses were burned to black. Even the temple of the Taoist Patriarch was destroyed. Everything was missing from the porch, and the tiles on it collapsed.
The statue of the Fourth Immortal Patriarch also fell down, and the two guest rooms next to it were not spared. Even the familiar wooden cabinets and other objects were reduced to ashes.
"Are you willing to give it up?" A sneer sounded from behind me.
