Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Five Real People (Part 2)
The five-color clouds quickly contracted and soon gathered into a light ball of hundreds of feet in size, emitting a shining light, just like a colorful sun in the sky.
The Star Ancestor was happy to see this. The five-color clouds had gathered. The first step was to use the power of Dharma to introduce the pure heaven and earth energy contained in the five-color clouds into the body.
"This vital energy of heaven and earth is deeper than the five-color clouds gathered when the original person advanced, so it is not easy to touch it. However, Mr. Li actually used the power of the three Dharma phases to pull this vital energy of heaven and earth. There should be no big problem." Ancestor Xingchen thought to himself.
As the ancestor Xingchen said, the three lights and shadows, one white, one gold and one black, were surrounding the light ball transformed by the pure heaven and earth vitality, constantly applying pressure to force it to fall on Ziqing Peak.
However, no matter how the triple Dharma phase urges pressure, the light ball remains unmoved.
The aura it contains is extremely violent. If there is no three-level Dharma blockade, it is afraid it will burst at any time.
The ancestor Xingchen couldn't help but worry, and he was hitting the bottleneck of the true body period, and every detail could not be ignored. Any seemingly simple step could trap the monks and fail.
After a while, the light ball became more and more restless, as if it was about to lose control, but at this critical moment, the three lights and shadows representing the three Dharma phases suddenly merged with each other to form a new Dharma phase light.
The new light of the Dharma image looks like a figure, which looks a bit similar to Li Muran. An inconspicuous gray halo appeared around the figure, and a pair of black flesh wings were formed on the back, but the surface of the body was covered with fine golden unicorns.
"Hey, this gray light..." The old ancestor Xingchen was stunned. Although the gray light halo seemed ordinary, the power contained was obviously extraordinary. As soon as the gray light halo appeared, the violent ball of light was immediately imprisoned and motionless.
Then, the three-level method phases merged into gray light and wrapped around the light balls.
The pure heaven and earth energy contained in the light ball immediately pours into it when it encounters the gray light and merges with the gray light. In almost the blink of an eye, the gray light and the light ball merge into one.
"What a powerful power of Dharma image." The ancestor Xingchen was surprised and happy. He could see clearly that Li Muran actually directly used the power of the fused Dharma image to absorb all the heaven and earth energy contained in the ball of light. Then the second step must be natural and can be achieved quickly.
Sure enough, after the gray light merged with a large amount of heaven and earth's vitality, it turned into an extremely thick beam of light, directly penetrated the clouds and mist on Ziqing Peak, and disappeared into Ziqing Peak.
After about one stick of incense, the pure heaven and earth energy gathered from the five-colored clouds and celestial phenomena turned into gray light and sank into Ziqing Peak, and the celestial phenomena disappeared.
Everything around him has returned to peace, but the hearts of the Star Ancestor and others are not calm.
"The first two steps are relatively smooth. Whether you can advance to the real body stage depends on whether your nephew Li can successfully refine the 'true body," said the ancestor Xingchen murmured. At this time, he was both excited, expectant, and a little worried.
The true body must be refined based on the power of Dharma images, and the true body cultivated by each monk is not exactly the same, so it is difficult for others to give clear guidance - unless the practice is exactly the same, the qualifications and talents are also very close.
The power of Dharma-like phenomena cultivated by Li Muran is actually formed by the rare combination of three levels of Dharma-like phenomena. Looking at this world, I am afraid that no second similar monk can be found, so the true body he refined must be very special and unique.
The process of refining the true body is relatively long. Even if a large amount of pure heaven and earth energy has been introduced, it will take a period of time to refine it. Generally speaking, as short as three days, the longest may take about a month. This is also the most important moment to impact the bottleneck of the true body period, and it is most afraid of disturbing.
The Tianshan Sect has completely closed the mountain, the mountain gate has been completely closed, and the 300 miles around Ziqing Peak have been set as forbidden areas, and no one is allowed to step into one step.
The Star Ancestor waited day and night near Ziqing Peak, never leaving a single step.
After seven days and seven nights, a long roar suddenly came from Ziqing Peak. Accompanied by this long roar, a cloud of turbid air rose into the sky and scattered between heaven and earth.
"The turbid air has disappeared, this is the great success of the martial arts." The ancestor Xingchen was very happy. Seeing this turbid air discharged, it meant that Li Muran had successfully advanced to the true body period.
"Congratulations to Junior Brother Li for advancing to the true body stage," said the ancestor Xingchen loudly. He immediately changed his name, and his joy was beyond words.
"Thank you, my ancestor, for being here to protect the Dharma." Li Muran's voice also came from Ziqing Peak. After a moment, a figure flew out from the clouds and mist in the peak. It was Li Muran.
At this time, Li Muran was wearing an ordinary Taoist robe and looked so young, but his expression became more and more steady and his breath became thicker. He was obviously not a young monk who had just begun to emerge.
Shu Yu and other elders from the Dharma Xiangqi period in the distance gathered here when they saw Li Muran breaking through the pass.
The ancestor Xingchen looked at Li Muran and confirmed that Li Muran had advanced. He smiled and said, "Junior Brother Li has advanced to the true body stage and is a 'real person. The three major realms of immortal cultivation are the realm of true cultivation, and it is important to eliminate false and retain the truth. Junior Brother Li has reached the first realm."
Li Muran nodded, feeling quite emotional in his heart. He has cultivated from an ordinary low-level monk to his current "real person" status. How many people know about the ups and downs of it?
"See Mr. Li to congratulate Mr. Li on his advancement to the true body period." Shu Zhongyu and other elders came to pay their respects.
Before retreating, they were still called the same generation as Li Muran, but at this time Li Muran had already advanced to the real life stage and was an elder and a master. You should not be distorted by etiquette.
Li Muran knew this well, and he was not polite and accepted the visits from these elders.
"You nephews don't have to be too polite." Li Muran said, his eyes swept over Shu Zhongyu and others, revealing a little regret.
"Sure enough, a hundred years later, among the group of Dharma-Phase Cultivators of that year, there were already a few more new faces." Li Muran sighed in his heart.
The ancestor Xingchen was very happy. He shouted: "You can immediately broadcast the wedding invitation and notify the major sects of the Western Regions' cultivation world, and inform them that the sect has one Elder Li, but one Li Zhenren is one more."
"Yes" Shu Zhongyu and others agreed immediately.
"This is a happy event for this sect, so we will naturally celebrate it lively. I plan to invite the Supreme Elders of each sect to gather together with this sect to celebrate the advancement of Junior Brother Li. I wonder what Junior Brother Li wants?" asked the ancestor Xingchen.
Li Muran quickly waved his hand to refuse, and he said, "I just advanced, and I still need to practice for a while and comprehend the new magical powers. In addition, I also want to deal with things in the real body period of the next step, so there is no need to celebrate it."
The ancestor Xingchen did not force himself, and he said, "Since that's the case, we can celebrate it a little within this sect. However, we still need to inform the various sects of the Western Regions so that they can know that this sect has another real-life existence."
Li Muran nodded. Whether there are cultivators in the true body stage are in charge is very important for a sect, so the actions of the Star Ancestor are also very necessary, and Li Muran did not object.
All the monks of Dharma-Second Ranking retreated first, leaving only the ancestor Xingchen to talk to Li Muran alone.
"Junior Brother Li is the right time to advance. If you are more than ten years later, I am afraid you won't see you again." Old Ancestor Xingchen sighed and said.
Li Muran's heart moved. He saw that although the ancestor Xingchen was still in a childish face and had not changed much, his eyes were a little drowsy, which was one of the manifestations of his life expectancy.
Once any high-level monk reaches this bottom, it is not much different from a dying mortal, so both of them are very serious.
The old ancestor Xingchen changed his topic and broke the solemn atmosphere. He asked: "Have Junior Brother Li's cultivation been smooth over the past century?"
"It's quite smooth." Li Muran said lightly.
There are many hardships behind his understatement.
At the beginning of his retreat, he entered the stage of dispersing martial arts and spent decades to cultivate to the eighth turn of the Immortal. Later, in order to further increase the chance of impacting the true body period, he immediately began to practice the Nine Turns of the Immortal.
After he finished practicing the Nine Transformations of the Immortal, he had been in seclusion for nearly a hundred years.
Cultivating the Nine Transformations of the Immortals even a cultivator with excellent talent will take a lot of time. This is the biggest disadvantage of the "Immortals Art" technique.
Perhaps as the ancestor Xingchen said, this kind of exercise comes from the spiritual world. In the environment full of pure spiritual energy in the spiritual world, it is easier to practice. Even if you have to practice the Nine Transformations of the Immortals, it is not particularly difficult for cultivators with sufficient qualifications. However, in the lower realm, there are very few cultivators who can practice this kind of exercise.
After practicing the Nine Revolutions of the Immortal, he began to refine the true spirit aura, and under the guidance of the demon soul, he used a wisp of fairy energy to merge the true demon aura and the true spirit aura.
The process of fusing the true spirit and the true demon qi is complicated, but it goes very smoothly. However, the special vital energy after the fusion is not as invisible and material as the rumored fairy energy, but presents a faint gray light.
According to the Demon Soul, this is probably not completely integrated, or the impurities in it have not been removed from purified. As Li Muran's cultivation continues to deepen, it is possible to refine this ray of gray light more transparently, and the power it contains will become more powerful.
However, what made Li Muran feel relieved was that even this ray of gray light was enough for him to integrate the three levels of Dharma. On the day the three levels of Dharma were integrated, he immediately sensed the loosening of the bottleneck of the true body period, so he immediately began to impact the bottleneck of the true body period.
