Chapter 407: Manifestation of the Holy Spirit
After becoming a grandmaster, a cultivator of Qi Refining will continue to breathe in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, constantly accumulating magical power, and using the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to nourish the body, strengthen the meridians and Dantian. When it reaches a certain level, he will use thunder magic to draw lightning into the body to temper himself, reverse his vitality, and allow the body to carry a trace of innate vitality.
Because thunder is both destruction and rebirth.
From this point of view, the stage of tempering the body with thunder and lightning in Qi refining is actually the same as the stage of tempering the marrow by the martial arts grandmaster, and they both aim to reverse the vitality and transform the acquired into the innate.
However, warriors are more thorough, and they change their bodies from the inside out, reversing their vitality and stimulating their blood. Once they become a Martial Saint, their strength advances by leaps and bounds, and their bodies become as strong as magic weapons. In terms of hard combat and endurance, they are generally better than the Xuan Masters of the same level.
If the bloodline ability is powerful, the combat power will be even more considerable.
However, the Qi Refining Dao has many changes and strangeness, and the spells are endless, which also has its own strengths. Not only that, when the Qi Refining Grandmaster draws lightning into the body, in addition to reversing the vitality of the physical body, he also draws lightning to refine the magic power and the meridians and Dantian, just like forging iron, making them more closely integrated with the body.
In this way, once you reach the realm of Xuan Shi, you will be able to cast magic with ease and power.
These are all off-topic. After Qin Ziling became a great master of Qi Refining, he should have accumulated magic power, nourished his body with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, strengthened his meridians and Dantian, and then inducted lightning to temper his body and reverse the vitality of his body.
But Qin Ziling himself is a martial saint. After returning from the small barrier, in addition to using thunder sounds to "cleanse" his bone marrow, he also often entered the Leixun Stone Formation like the other four to receive a thunder bath.
The body has already regained its vitality and has some innate attributes.
As for the meridians and dantian, Qin Ziling practiced all five elements and gave birth to a trace of yin and yang. His meridians and dantian were already much stronger than those of a great master of Qi training. The physical body was the carrier of the meridians and dantian, and when the physical body was strong, the meridians and dantian would naturally rise as well.
Therefore, after other Qi Refining cultivators step into the realm of Qi Refining Grand Master, they need to practice for a long time before they dare to take the risk of trying to draw lightning to temper their bodies, but Qin Ziling does not have this hurdle.
Because he had already drawn lightning to temper his body and reversed his vitality.
So he dropped the thunder rune on the Fayuan altar, let it settle and accumulate for a while, and then he used thunder to temper his meridians, dantian, and magic power in one go, and soon became a Xuan master.
After becoming a Xuanshi, Qin Ziling's rapid progress slowed down.
However, Qin Ziling practiced all five elements and often took thunder baths, so his meridians and dantian were unusually strong and wide, and his magic power was extremely powerful and pure.
Although he looks like only a minor Xuan Master, he has integrated all five elements into one, and his magical power is so powerful that it can surpass that of an average intermediate Xuan Master.
That’s not all. He practiced all five elements and was able to use five kinds of thunder techniques: Yi Wood Positive Thunder, Bing Fire Yang Thunder, Gui Water Yin Thunder, Geng Metal Robbery Thunder, and Wu Earth Dark Thunder.
The five thunders combined into one can transform into a more powerful purple thunder.
"It's true that sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood! I have laid an extremely solid foundation for my physical body, which has consumed a lot of resources and delayed the time for breaking through the realm. Now it finally shows a great effect! The practice of Qi Refining and the comprehension of Thunder Method are basically based on the foundation of the physical body to rise straight up!"
Qin Ziling looked at the power of thunder and thought of his recent rapid progress in Qi training. He couldn't help but feel deeply moved. He was also glad that he had insisted on training his body to the limit and did not give up.
After sighing for a while, Qin Ziling flew over the clouds to the island in the middle of the lake and closed the Wuji Palace again.
After closing the Wuji Palace, Qin Ziling summoned Ying Bao to guard the gate, and then he entered the cave world himself.
A few days ago, Ying Bao finally broke through to become a celestial corpse and has gained spiritual consciousness.
In the cave world, Xiao Qing was sitting cross-legged beside the big formation, using the sound of thunder to cleanse his bone marrow.
Xiao Qing had already comprehended the secret of Leiyin Marrow Cleansing some time ago, and began to refine his bone marrow to become a Martial Saint.
The four celestial corpses including the Four Heads were lying in the coffins, breathing in and out evil energy.
Among the four celestial corpses, four have already touched the threshold of intermediate celestial corpses, while Ape Da, Ape Er and Bear Da are still a little short of it.
This speed can be considered as amazing, but with such unique conditions, everything seems to be taken for granted.
There were two ghost demons, one of which was given to Yun Lan by Qin Ziling as a reward.
Yun Lan was practicing the "Dark Emperor Visualization Diagram" that Qin Ziling passed down to her.
In his early years, Qin Ziling understood some of the true meaning of darkness from the Immortal Galaxy Visualization Method and the Netherworld Sect's secret methods related to darkness, and then drew a "Dark Emperor Visualization Picture" and passed it to Yun Lan.
He also used his own soul to interpret the Dark Emperor, causing Yun Lan's soul to worship him.
The evil ghost was nothing to Qin Ziling now, so he gave one to Yun Lan to protect him.
As for the other ghost demon, Qin Ziling used it to try to temper it with thunder.
As a result, Rick is evil.
The ghost demon was weak and could not withstand the thunder. A bolt of thunder turned into wisps of pure yin energy and merged into the small cave.
Qin Ziling did not feel sad about the disappearance of the evil ghost, but instead a warning bell sounded in his heart.
His soul is not only powerful, but also extremely mysterious. Especially in assisting in spiritual practice and killing enemies, it has unimaginable uses.
But at the same time, the soul is most restrained by thunder.
His soul has now reached the peak of possession, and the next step is to manifest himself as a saint, and after that he will have to survive the thunder tribulation of heaven and earth.
The power of the thunder tribulation from heaven and earth is much greater than the lightning in his little cave, and there is no humanity involved. Once the tribulation begins, he has no say in it.
Once his soul is destroyed, no matter how powerful his martial arts and Qi training are, he will be nothing but a walking corpse.
So after experiencing the incident where the ghost demon was killed by thunder, Qin Ziling suddenly felt a great sense of crisis in his spiritual practice. He also vaguely understood why the spiritual practice was the most mysterious, ethereal, and even almost legendary.
In addition to the fact that it is extremely difficult to enter and practice the soul, it is probably also because of this thunder tribulation.
With all these reasons combined, how could the spirit and soul be able to flourish? Over time, it was almost extinct!
After entering the cave world, Qin Ziling summoned the Four Heads and the Ape, ordering them to guard his body. Then he sat cross-legged, and his entire soul jumped out of the body and flew into the formation.
As soon as the soul flew into the formation, thunder fell.
The soul is invisible, but when the thunder falls, it is like a ghost appearing, and Qin Ziling's constantly twisting and changing body is revealed under the thunder.
The soul continued to twist and shrink, as if it was about to collapse at any time.
At this time, Sishou took out a drop of golden liquid and shot it into Qin Ziling's twisted soul.
When the golden liquid fell into the soul body, the soul body began to emit a faint golden light. A trace of vitality and pure yang breath emanated from the soul body along with the golden light. Even the soul body, which was originally illusory, gave people a faint sign of becoming substantial.
After a while, another drop of golden liquid popped out .
After playing the four songs twice, Qin Ziling's soul persisted for a moment, then flew out of the formation and fell back into his body.
After his soul returned to his body, Qin Ziling slowly opened his eyes, revealing a complex look of both joy and heartache.
What made him happy was that by tempering his soul with thunder every day, he could clearly feel that his soul was not only getting stronger, but also quietly changing in quality, and a trace of pure yang power had already been born.
The soul of a living person is a yang soul, but there is yin within the yang.
Therefore, the soul of a person after death is also called the Yin soul.
Before going through the thunder tribulation, the cultivators of spiritual cultivation continue to strengthen their souls, and the evil impurities in their souls also grow and increase.
Thunder is extremely powerful and yang. Only when the soul survives the thunder tribulation can it gradually refine the yin impurities and produce pure yang power.
Moreover, the soul must go through many thunder tribulations before it can eliminate all the negative impurities and achieve a pure yang soul.
Therefore, the pure yang power is only possessed by the soul that has survived the thunder tribulation. Qin Ziling is only at the stage of possession now and has not even reached the stage of manifestation of sainthood. However, because of the tempering of thunder in the cave world and the help of the golden liquid, he has generated a trace of pure yang power. He is definitely an outlier in the world of spiritual cultivation.
Not only that, as his soul is tempered by thunder every day, Qin Ziling feels more and more familiar with thunder, and no longer feels such a great sense of crisis about his soul going through thunder tribulations in the future.
But at the same time, in order to temper his soul and allow it to withstand the power of thunder, Qin Ziling felt very distressed by the consumption of two drops of golden liquid every day.
Fortunately, this time he brought out about two thousand drops of golden liquid from the small barrier. Even if he took two drops a day, it would be enough for him to squander for a long time.
Not long after his soul returned to his body, Qin Ziling began to practice the Dragon-Tiger Art, and the Yin-Yang Art.
Qi, blood, strength and bone marrow are like a dragon and a tiger interacting, constantly fusing and circulating, as if the qi, blood and strength that had been nurtured before were being re-forged.
The energy of Qi and blood became more and more pure, exuding a strong breath of new life, as if the Qi and blood had been replaced.
Qin Ziling entered the Xuanshi realm three days ago along with the Qi refining. His martial arts were affected and he entered the Dragon-Tiger Interaction in one fell swoop, reaching the Intermediate Martial Saint realm.
Now, three days have passed, and the total amount of qi and blood seems to have not changed, but the change in the quality of qi and blood has made Qin Ziling's strength increase exponentially.
Not only that, with the changes in qi and blood, Qin Ziling had another bloodline magical pattern on his body.
This bloodline magical power pattern is the earth element, also known as earth escape.
…
He practiced like this every day for another twenty days.
Qin Ziling's soul finally broke through the realm of possession and reached the state of manifestation.
Once he reached the realm of sainthood, Qin Ziling's soul was no longer an illusion, but something between reality and illusion. When gathered, it became form, and when dispersed, it became gas. It could appear and disappear freely, and it could split into different bodies and change in any way.
After reaching the realm of Manifestation of Sainthood, Qin Ziling still devoted himself to cultivation in seclusion, ignoring everything happening outside. The gains from the small barrier were so great that even though he made breakthroughs in realms, it was still able to support him to continue his cultivation.
The capital of the Great Qi State, the Sitianjian.
Gongsun Yun, a man with a square face and a dignified demeanor, was reading a book in the courtyard when a great master walked in.
"What's the matter?" Gongsun Yun gently put down the scroll in his hand and looked up at the great master.
"Master, the prince has sent a gift list." The grandmaster handed over the gift list with both hands.
The gift list flew from the Grand Master's hand and fell into Gongsun Yun's hand.
Gongsun Yun took a quick look and said calmly, "There are quite a few things! It seems that the prince is ready to take action against the Qin family of Wuzhou."
"Master, please understand!" The Grand Master bowed and said, "The Crown Prince's chief aide Wu Jinhe successfully attracted lightning to temper his body three days ago and became a Mystic Master."
