Beiyuan Xiuxian Realm, Zhao State, Qingli County.

A small village by the Qingxi River sits alone in the wilderness, with no people around for dozens of miles. The small village is called Qingxi Village, and there are 100 families in the village.

At the east end of the village, there was a little boy, with his hands behind his back like an adult, walking eastward along the river bank.

At this time, it is the Qingqiu season, and the banks of the river are full of reeds. The breeze is blowing, and the reed flowers dance with the wind, like snow flying all over the sky. A mile away from the village, there is no farmland, just a clump of bushes. These trees are still luxuriant, a green color. The reed flowers floated over and covered the bushes with a layer of white gauze, and the bushes showed Lingshuang Aoxue's character.

The little boy had no intention of admiring the beauty in front of him and walked aimlessly. He could only hear him muttering: "When the times are bad, you can be struck by lightning in the house. Luckily in the misfortune, you have been reincarnated and reincarnated. In this world, there is actually a saying of cultivating immortals."

He is not an ordinary child, but a traveler. In his previous life, he was an unremarkable office worker in the Earth's Huaxia Kingdom, whose name was Wang Daoyuan. Because of a bead, he traveled to this world of immortal cultivation.

In the previous life, Wang Daoyuan was adopted by an old Taoist since he was a child, and followed the old Taoist around to show people Feng Shui and exorcise evil spirits.

Later, this bowl of rice became more and more unpalatable, and the old Taoist sent him to school because he was afraid that he would lose his livelihood in the future.

Wang Daoyuan did not live up to the high expectations of the old Taoist priest. He was finally admitted to the university. After graduation, he successfully found a decent job in the city. The old Taoist priest also enjoyed a few years of happiness with him.

When Wang Daoyuan was 30 years old, the old Taoist priest, who did not know how old he lived, came to the end of his life.

Before the old Taoist emerged, he passed the "mantle" to him. This "mantle" includes a gray and purple, translucent glass bead, and some books on feng shui, divination and fortune-telling.

Wang Daoyuan buried the old Taoist near the thatched cottage where the master and the apprentice had lived for nearly 20 years. After that, he checked the relics left by the old Taoist.

I don't know what the bead did, but when Wang Daoyuan was playing, he was struck by lightning. Wang Daoyuan was also devastated by Chiyu and was split into ashes.

His last consciousness was that he had turned into a fist-sized little man and stayed in a dark environment. He was already a five-year-old child when he recovered his past life memory.

In this life, Wang Daoyuan was born in Qingxi Village. According to his parents, the villagers in Qingxi Village are not ordinary mortals, but members of the Wang family Xiuxian family in Yuquan Peak, thousands of miles away. Every year, "immortals" from the clan come to the village. Test whether a child who has just turned ten years old has the qualifications to cultivate immortals.

Qingxi Village is located on the edge of the Wang family's territory, a few hundred miles to the east, where monsters are entrenched. Therefore, there are often "immortals" coming and going here to protect the village from monsters.

Wang Daoyuan has also seen several "immortals" from the clan, all wearing white robes, with the clan embroidery embroidered with gold thread on the cuffs - fish with dragon heads.

The previous Wang Daoyuan has not recovered the memory of his previous life, and his intelligence is no different from that of an ordinary child. His parents also told him that he should not be disrespectful to the "immortal", and he never dared to get too close to the "immortal".

Before he knew it, Wang Daoyuan had already walked two or three miles away. There are often wild beasts and even monsters near the village, but they are afraid of being killed by the "immortals" and dare not attack the village at will, but near the village, there is still the courage to attack the lonely villagers.

Wang Daoyuan turned his head to look at the village, and found that he was a little far away from the village. Usually adults repeatedly warned that they must not leave the village alone, otherwise they will be carried away by wolves.

Because he had just awakened the memory of his past life, his mind was a little confused, so he forgot about it. Now that he reacted, he immediately turned around and returned to the village. A five-year-old, defenseless against the beast, is an excellent snack.

Wang Daoyuan turned around and didn't take a few steps when he heard the sound of trees breaking from the bushes more than ten meters away. He turned to look, and saw a black wolf sprang from the bushes and rushed towards him.

In his previous life, he also practiced some things that are said to be immortal cultivation techniques with the old Taoist priest, but he didn't practice anything famous, and he also practiced some boxing and kick kung fu. Four or five big men couldn't get close to him.

But he is only a five-year-old child, no matter how good his kung fu is, without physical strength, he can't beat a wolf.

Wang Daoyuan has been a human being in two lifetimes, and he has been with the old Taoist priest for more than 30 years in his previous life. Naturally, he will not be at a loss when faced with danger like ordinary people. Knowing that he couldn't beat the wolf, he could only run away and call for help.

He cries for help as he burrows into the bushes ahead.

The wolf's running speed is much faster than that of ordinary people, and its endurance is extremely strong. How could a five-year-old child outrun a wolf.

Although Wang Daoyuan was chasing in the bushes, relying on the dense branches of the bushes to block the calf-sized body of the black wolf, the distance between him and the wolf was still shortening.

In less than twenty breaths, the black wolf was less than two feet away from him. The black wolf leaped forward, opened his mouth, and bit Wang Daoyuan.

A feeling of powerlessness rose in Wang Daoyuan's heart: "I was struck to death by lightning in my previous life, and I was reincarnated in the world of Xiu Xian.

At this critical moment, a black shadow sprang out from the side, pounced on the black wolf, and hit the black wolf directly on the waist.

At this time, the black wolf's saliva had dripped onto Wang Daoyuan, but was knocked out by the shadow more than ten feet away.

The shadow fell to the ground, and only then did Wang Daoyuan realize that this was his own dog, Da Hei.

The big black bared his teeth, making a threatening sound of whining, and stared at the black wolf.

All wolves are "copper heads, iron brains and tofu waist". The black wolf was hit on the waist and suffered some injuries. At this moment, his standing posture is a bit strange, but he didn't leave, and showed his teeth to Da Hei.

Wang Dao was far-sighted, and immediately hid behind Da Hei, picked up a stone about the size of his fist, and was ready to smash it at the black wolf at any time.

Although the black wolf was hit by Da Hei and his waist was injured, he still had most of his fighting strength. I didn't fight Da Hei head-on just now. I don't know the depth of Da Hei, so I just left, unwilling.

Suddenly, the black wolf strikes first, rushing towards Da Hei. Wang Daoyuan immediately threw the stone out of his hand and smashed it at the black wolf's head.

Although the smashing force was small, the black wolf dodged subconsciously. Da Hei seized the opportunity, pounced on the black wolf, and bit the back of the black wolf's neck, tearing the wolf and the dog together.

Da Hei was much weaker in size and strength than the Black Wolf, but the Black Wolf had a wound on his waist, and Da Hei took the advantage and bit the back of his neck. After biting for thirty or forty breaths, one wolf and one dog were separated, and there were a few more wounds on the body, which was evenly divided.

The black wolf gasped for a while, and was about to continue to pounce, when he saw Wang Daoyuan holding another stone in his hand, he hesitated.

Continuing to fight the black wolf can indeed win, but it will also be seriously injured. It is an outlier, a lone wolf, and being seriously injured means death. It is definitely not worth it to eat such a child who is seriously injured.

The black wolf made a move forward, and Da Hei was also ready to fight back. The stone in Wang Daoyuan's hand was thrown out again, but the black wolf turned his head and ran away.

One person and one dog are a little messy. When they react, Da Hei gets up and goes to chase. Wang Daoyuan said, "Don't chase Da Hei, let's go home quickly."

And just as the black wolf ran a few feet away, a water blue long sword fell from the sky, and the sword pinned the black wolf to the ground. The black wolf struggled a few times and stopped moving.

A "immortal" in a white robe appeared, walked up to the black wolf, drew a long sword, and asked him, "What's the name of the little guy?"

Before Wang Daoyuan could answer, Da Hei timidly called out to the "immortal". Afraid of angering the "immortal", Wang Daoyuan hurriedly stopped Da Hei and replied respectfully, "The boy's surname is Wang, and he hasn't given a name yet. My parents call me Erwa."

"Immortal" picked up the black wolf's body with one hand, touched the bag at his waist, the black wolf the size of a calf disappeared instantly, and said with a smile: "As expected of my royal family, there is a kind, I have a little wisdom when I meet this. Wolf, you can still not panic. Just relying on a black dog to force back the black wolf, such a big person is brave and resourceful.

This dog is not bad either. He has some intelligence. If he lived in the family since he was a child, he might already be a first-order spirit beast. "

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards Qingxi Village, Wang Daoyuan followed behind with Da Hei respectfully.

At this time, Wang Daoyuan dared to look at the "immortal". This "immortal" was carrying a long sword, with a gourd hanging from his waist, his hair was messy, and his white robe had not been washed for many years, because of the special material, it has not changed color. , but it can be clearly seen that it is covered with dirt, and from time to time there is a strange smell mixed with rancidity and alcohol.

The "immortal" sent Wang Daoyuan to his home. Wang Daoyuan's parents saw that Da Hei was injured, and the second child was tattered and worried.

Seeing that they were brought back by the immortal, he immediately made up the scene of Erwa and Da Hei being attacked by a beast and rescued by the immortal.

"Immortal" waved his hand, a gust of breeze blew past, and lifted the two up, saying: "This is not my credit, this kid and your black dog cooperated to drive away a wolf, when I arrived, the wolf was already To escape, without me, this kid will be fine."

Seeing such a means, Wang Daoyuan is very envious, and can't wait to start practicing immediately. It's a pity that he is only five years old, and he is still far from the age to detect Linggen.

He asked tentatively, "Immortal, can I cultivate immortality now?"

Immortal said without hesitation: "How old are you? In the world of immortality, it is not unreasonable to start cultivation at the age of ten. First, children before the age of ten are not intelligent enough to fully understand the knowledge of cultivation; second, children are too physically fit. Weak, unable to withstand the power of aura.

However, seeing that you are dealing with the black wolf, and you are not chaotic in the face of danger, your intelligence should be enough. Although the physique looks good, it does not necessarily meet the requirements. After all, you should only be five or six years old like this. "

Wang Daoyuan hurriedly said: "The boy is determined to cultivate immortals, and he hopes that immortals will be fulfilled."

"Then I'll give you a chance." The immortal took out a book and said, "This is "Opening the Pulses", the most basic exercise for immortal cultivation. It is used to open up the eight extraordinary meridians. If you can cultivate the sense of qi, then It means that you have spiritual roots and can cultivate immortals. If you can't cultivate a sense of anger, then you have no spiritual roots, just a mortal.

I would like to remind you that although your physique is stronger than your peers, you may not be able to resist the impact of aura. If the body can't bear it, it may leave dark wounds, or even become a waste. Do you still want to practice? "

Wang Daoyuan replied firmly: "The boy is willing!"

Under the guidance of the "immortal", Wang Daoyuan began to practice "Opening the Pulse".

An hour later, Wang Daoyuan felt a faint heat flow in his abdomen and told the "immortal".

"Immortal" burped and said, "Don't talk about it, it takes an hour to repair the feeling of anger. Either I was confused and misheard, or your kid peeed his pants, or where did the heat flow come from?"

That being said, the "immortal" still carefully inspected Wang Daoyuan's body, and found that Wang Daoyuan had really cultivated a trace of spiritual energy, and he was stunned in place.

After a long time, the "immortal" came back to his senses and asked, "Is there any discomfort in your body?"

After Wang Daoyuan replied that there was no discomfort, the "immortal" didn't say a word, and started to run wild while carrying Wang Daoyuan, leaving behind the jaw-dropping parents and elder brother of Wang Daoyuan.

Fortunately, Wang Daoyuan's parents also learned about cultivating immortals in the school when they were young. Knowing that their son was attracted by the "immortals" in the clan, and could embark on the road of immortality, they were not too worried.

After a day's trek, the "immortal" took Wang Daoyuan back to Yuquan Peak and reported the situation to the elders.

According to the appraisal of the elders, Wang Daoyuan practiced "Opening the Pulse" to cultivate the sense of qi, and has officially entered the first realm of self-cultivation - the opening of the pulse.

The five-year-old cultivator has never heard of or heard of Wang's more than 600 years of history.

Wang Daoyuan officially entered the Wang family. The Wang family's name was "inheriting the ancestors and following the ambition, keeping the Tao and Mingde", and it happened that his generation was "Dao". Under his insistence, the family named him Wang Daoyuan.

The elders gave Wang Daoyuan special treatment, giving what he needed.

Wang Daoyuan did not live up to expectations. At the age of eight, the eight meridians and eight meridians were fully opened, and he entered the eighth level of the open meridian; at the age of nine, the eight meridians connected to the Dantian, and the open meridian state was complete;

At this time, people of the same age just know what cultivation is, and Wang Daoyuan has already entered the realm of Qi cultivation. This is a blatant "run away".

However, the good times did not last long.

At the age of ten, the visceral energy is sufficient, the spiritual root is stable, and the spiritual root can be detected. Wang Daoyuan was secretly taken by the elders to test the spirit root, and there were five beams of light, red, yellow, white, black and green, and they were all two inches high.

The spirit-testing disk is a special instrument of the spirit-testing root. The spiritual root of the tested person will show a phantom on the spirit-testing disk. Red, black, yellow, and green represent the five attributes of the spiritual root. The sum of the phantom heights of all the spiritual roots is only one foot at most, most people can only reach more than nine inches, and very few can reach one foot.

The elders were almost pissed off by the test results. The baby egg that has been cared for for five years, a genius of cultivation, is actually the root of the five spirits, or the root of the five spirits with the balance of the five elements, without any specialties, a proper cultivation waste material.

Previously, the speed of cultivation was due to the fact that people were born with innate qi, and to cultivate with innate qi, the cultivation speed was faster. Wang Daoyuan seems to have a lot of innate energy, which leads to the early cultivation speed comparable to Tianlinggen.

Tianling root is a single spiritual root, and the height of the phantom of the spiritual root is not less than nine inches.

With the increase of age, the innate qi of a person gradually dissipates, and the speed of cultivation will become slower and slower. Until the age of twelve, the innate qi completely disappeared, and the bonus of the innate qi to the cultivation speed also disappeared.

From genius to waste, Wang Daoyuan's status in the family plummeted.

Fortunately, this is in the Xiuxian family, not the sect. What is the most important thing about the Xiuxian family? Bloodline inheritance!

In the family, any clan with spiritual roots is a precious treasure.

As long as there are spiritual roots, no matter how bad, the probability of marrying an ordinary person and giving birth to offspring with spiritual roots is about 20%; both parents have spiritual roots, and the probability of children having spiritual roots is about half; For ordinary people, the probability of a child having spiritual roots is generally about 1 in 10,000; both parents are ordinary people, but the earlier direct ancestors have spiritual roots, such as Wang Daoyuan’s parents, who are descendants of immortal cultivators, and their children have spiritual roots. The probability of a root is between 1 percent and 1 in 1,000, and the further the generations are, the lower the probability.

There will be no obvious difference in aptitude between the descendants of Wulinggen and Tianlinggen.

Therefore, after being found to be the root of the five spirits, Wang Daoyuan did not receive any scolding, and still cultivated in the cave on Yuquan Peak, but there was no additional supply of resources before.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, six years have passed.

In a cave mansion by the stream in the middle of the mountain in Yuquan Peak, a heroic young man sat cross-legged, his eyes were closed, and his breathing was even and long.

The wisps of water blue breath gradually converged from the mouth, nose, skin, etc. to the twelve main meridians, then passed through the eight extraordinary meridians, and entered the Guanyuan point three inches below the navel.

Guanyuan Point, also known as Dantian, is the root of the practitioner.

A quarter of an hour later, a burst of energy erupted from him and spread out around him. At this time, the boy had opened his eyes, his face was full of joy, and he said to himself: "Kung fu pays off, and finally broke through to the fourth level of Qi practice."

The young man is Wang Daoyuan, who is sixteen years old and has just broken through the fourth level of Qi training. Thanks to the "rush run", he is considered to be above average among his peers.

The cultivation base breaks through the fourth level of Qi training, and you can start to cultivate spiritual consciousness.

The so-called Divine Consciousness is the power emitted by the soul. The power of Divine Consciousness is innate. The strength of Divine Consciousness is closely related to the strength of the Soul. Cultivating Divine Consciousness is also a process of strengthening the soul.

A person who cultivates, even if he does not deliberately cultivate his spiritual consciousness, will gradually improve his spiritual consciousness with the improvement of his cultivation realm. Of course, there is a method of cultivation, and the cultivation of spiritual consciousness will improve faster.

The relationship between the cultivation of spiritual consciousness and the soul is like the relationship between cultivation of spiritual power and the body.

Wang Daoyuan grew up on Yuquan Peak since he was a child. For more than ten years, all he has learned and seen is the knowledge of cultivating immortals, and he naturally knows the importance of divine consciousness. Therefore, after consolidating the realm a little, he hurriedly went straight to the Tibetan Sutra Building.

The Tibetan Scripture Building is on the west side of Yulong Spring, and Yulong Spring is the spiritual eye of Yuquan Peak's spiritual veins. The name of Yuquan Peak also comes from Yulong Spring.

By the side of Yulong Spring, there is a thousand-year-old strange pine, and the Tibetan Sutra Building is under this strange pine.

In front of the Tibetan Scripture Building is an old man with white hair and beard, lying dozing on a reclining chair.

The old man's name is Wang Jize, he is Wang Daoyuan's great-grandfather, the elder of the Wang family, and the only remaining fruit of the Wang family's successor generation.

The Wang family has a descendant of the next generation, and is fifty years old. Even the youngest successor is over one hundred and twenty years old, and has long since passed away.

The life expectancy of ordinary people is only one hundred years. During the Qi training period, the cultivators have smooth meridians, strong qi and blood, and will not get sick. Therefore, the life expectancy is slightly longer than that of ordinary people. Years, cultivator Jindan for a thousand years...

Wang Jize's situation is special. It is said that he used to be a foundation-building cultivation base. When he went out, he was plotted against him and was almost destroyed. He was seriously injured and desperately fled back to his family. In the end, he saved his life.

Although he didn't have the strength of a foundation-building cultivator, he was a foundation-building cultivator after all, and his lifespan was longer than his Qi training period, so he was still alive now.

However, this Taigong had a ruddy complexion, gleaming eyes, a calm and long breath, and he looked like he was seriously injured.

After Wang Jize's realm fell, he has been guarding the Sutra Collection Building, regardless of world affairs.

Family cultivators, no matter the level of cultivation, meet and greet each other only on the basis of age.

Facing the elders of the grandfather generation, Wang Daoyuan naturally did not dare to neglect. After tidying up his clothes, he walked to Wang Jize and saluted respectfully: "Kid Wang Daoyuan, I have seen the Grand Master."

"It's you little guy." Wang Jize opened his eyes and said kindly, "Yes, you have broken through to the fourth level of Qi training, the breath has just stabilized, but there is no sense of vain, the foundation is very solid, it seems that you have done a lot of hard work.

The way of practice, the talent is good, but the road is easy to walk. How far you can go depends on perseverance and chance. Although your aptitude is not good, but you can work hard, you may not be able to achieve something. "

Wang Daoyuan bowed his luggage again: "Thank you Taigong for teaching!"

Wang Jize waved his hand and said: "You don't have to be so cautious. You just broke through the fourth level of Qi training, and you are looking for the method of spiritual consciousness cultivation, right?

Our Wang family is a small family, there is no powerful cultivation method, and there is only one method of spiritual consciousness cultivation, here I am. You write it down, go back to practice, and don't spread it out.

Learning this method requires 100 family contribution points. If you are not an adult, you can avoid it. "

After all, he took out a jade slip and handed it to Wang Daoyuan.

Family Contribution Points are the currency used in the royal family. They are issued according to the contributions made by the clansmen to the family. They can also be exchanged with spirit stones. One spirit stone can be exchanged for a little contribution point.

Wang Daoyuan put the jade slip between his eyebrows, and after a while, a scripture appeared in his mind, called "Forging the Soul".

Holding the jade slip in both hands, it was returned to Wang Jize. Salute again: "The boy has written it down."

Wang Jize put away the jade slip and said, "You are learning a magic talisman. For you, your spiritual sense is more important. The strength of your spiritual sense directly affects the success rate of refining the magic talisman. Going back to Haosheng to practice, I have doubts. Come here and ask me."

After the children of the Wang family reach the age of fourteen, they must learn a hundred arts of immortality without affecting their cultivation.

Clan people with qualifications like Wang Daoyuan have no hope of building a foundation. Most of them focus on cultivating immortals and various arts, earning resources and preparing for the next generation.

Wang Daoyuan was no exception. At the age of fourteen, he began to learn the arts of immortality from the elders of the clan.

After learning several crafts, Wang Daoyuan's talent in alchemy, amulet making, planting, etc. is quite good, but human energy is limited and it is impossible to learn multiple crafts.

After some weighing, Wang Daoyuan finally chose to learn the talisman. Although the benefits of making talismans are far inferior to those of alchemy, spiritual talismans can directly increase their fighting skills.

He knows that with his talent, if he wants to be qualified to build a foundation, he can only do his best to improve his cultivation. He doesn't have much time to practice spells.

The magic talisman is the only method that can directly improve the combat power without relying on one's own cultivation. The use of the magic talisman only requires a bit of spiritual power or spiritual power. Even a qi cultivator can easily use a second-order power comparable to a base-building cultivator's blow. Amulet.

Moreover, compared with alchemy and alchemy, the cost of making talismans is also much lower, which is suitable for poor people like Wang Daoyuan.

After making a choice, Wang Daoyuan followed the elder Wang Zhide, the ninth uncle, who was good at making talismans, and learned to make talismans.

In the past two years, he has learned to use several kinds of spirit grass to make talisman paper, and to use monster blood or cinnabar to make spirit ink, recognize various common first-order runes, and practice drawing talismans.

Of course, to practice drawing talismans, you only use ordinary people's pen, ink, paper, and inkstone. Talisman paper and spiritual ink can be sold for money, so naturally it is impossible for apprentices to squander it.

Wang Daoyuan is not an obedient baby. After a year of study, he learned to make talisman paper and spirit ink, and basically mastered common first-order runes. He also entrusted the clansmen who went out to do errands to buy a low-quality talisman pen and officially started. system character.

It may be that he learned to draw talismans from an old Taoist priest in his previous life, and Wang Daoyuan's talent in the magic talisman is much stronger than he imagined. It only took three days to successfully create a first-order low-grade magic talisman...

Wang Daoyuan returned to the cave, and immediately began to comprehend the "Soul Forging Art". After all, it was about how far he could go on the magic talisman in the future, so he had to pay attention.

There is not much content recorded in the jade slips, only more than 5,000 words. The first 1,000 words describe some basic common sense and usage skills of spiritual consciousness, and the next 1,000 words are the main text, which records the specific methods of cultivating the soul. The next three thousand words or so are about the cultivation experience of the elders in the clan.

This is also a reflection of the family heritage. With these experiences, practitioners will avoid many detours.

After browsing, Wang Daoyuan restrained his mind and started the first step of spiritual consciousness cultivation - inner vision.

The soul of a person is hidden in the Niwan Palace between the eyebrows, which is also known as the Sea of Consciousness. Spiritual consciousness practice is carried out in the sea of consciousness.

Therefore, before cultivating spiritual consciousness, one should first look inside the sea of consciousness and find a cultivation place.

According to the method recorded in "Forging the Soul", the mind will be restrained, and the intention is to guard the Niwan Palace.

But for a moment, Wang Daoyuan saw a gray world. Looking in all directions, there were gray patches everywhere, as if there was no end. This was the legendary sea of consciousness.

Looking up, I suddenly found that the pearl from the previous life was actually in the sea of knowledge.

Divine Sense probed into the bead and actually entered the interior of the bead, which actually became a space of its own.

This is a hemispherical space, the ground is about ten acres of land, and there is a thin aura in the space.

Outside the space, there is a gray fog everywhere.
