Great Xuanwu Sheng

The third step of artistic conception is the unity of nature and man.

When Chen Mu was in the field of enlightenment, he briefly stepped into the realm of 'the unity of nature and man' with the help of the system panel. But only now did he understand that the unity of nature and man he felt at that time was not a true one. The intersection of heaven and man.

At that time, it was the power of the system panel that supported him, allowing his consciousness to continuously rise and blend between heaven and earth. There was a vague feeling that he could control everything in the world, but that was actually just an illusion.

Without understanding the nature of heaven and earth, it is impossible to truly control one.

And at this moment.

Chen Mu's soul consciousness is not only blending with the heaven and earth, but the most essential mystery of the heaven and earth has also been completely unveiled to him. The mystery of wind, thunder, water and fire, heaven, earth, mountains and rivers, and the eight phases of the universe, seems to be endless insights, in This moment surged towards his heart and soul.

While immersed in this almost endless realization, Chen Mu could also feel that the world seemed to have turned into an infinite sea, and his heart and soul were like a small boat in the sea, constantly moving with the tide. Overturned, it seems that it will be submerged in the tide of this world at any time, and will be completely assimilated and swallowed by this vast world.

"This is the true unity of man and nature."

Chen Mu murmured to himself.

The last time when heaven and man merged into one, it was protected by the power of the system. He only had the perspective of heaven and man, but he never truly had complete contact with heaven and earth, which was blocked by the power of the system.

But this time, the system panel no longer separates him from the world, so that his heart and soul and the world are truly and completely blended into one, and he can experience the most essential mystery of the nearly endless world. , the power from heaven and earth is also constantly washing away his heart and soul, trying to submerge and devour his heart and soul, and annihilate him between heaven and earth.

but.

At this moment, feeling the wash and refinement from heaven and earth, Chen Mu did not have any worries. Instead, he calmly let go of everything. While fully integrating with the essence of heaven and earth, he also allowed the wash and refinement of heaven and earth to refine his heart and soul.

Taking this step of uniting heaven and man is also risky. Just like entering the realm of blood exchange, if you cannot withstand the training from heaven and earth, you may die and be annihilated in heaven and earth, and your soul will disappear.

But how powerful is Chen Mu’s heart and soul?

Not a celestial being, but better than a celestial being!

Looking at the entire world, there are only a few celestial masters who can develop that bit of immortal aura.

And with the immortal aura, he has no fear of the erosion and refinement of heaven and earth. No matter how violent the erosion from heaven and earth is, and how shaken and trembling his heart and soul is, the indestructible aura in the deepest part of his heart and soul remains. They are always like a rock in the tidal wave, standing still despite the mighty waves sweeping by.

"Come on, come harder."

Chen Mu's field of vision continued to rise at this time, and he gradually reached the high sky, overlooking the entire Qixuan Mountains that stretched for hundreds of miles. However, this did not stop yet, and his thoughts were still spreading further outwards.

When a warrior understands the third step of the artistic conception and steps into the level of heaven and man, it is only this first time of 'unity of heaven and man' that can withstand the erosion and refinement from heaven and earth, and resist the past, in order to truly gain the power of heaven and earth. After approval, you can freely display the power of heaven and earth and will no longer be suppressed by heaven and earth.

For ordinary people, how to survive this disaster is the key.

They must use the martial arts will they have honed throughout their lives, the tempered power of their souls, and their in-depth understanding of a certain path they have mastered to protect their souls and souls until they finally resist.

But for Chen Mu, this is not a disaster, but an opportunity!

because.

His heart and soul had already surpassed those of heaven and man, and had even honed a bit of immortal spiritual light. Therefore, no matter how violent the refinement and erosion of heaven and earth was, it was impossible to destroy his heart, soul and will.

For him, this kind of washing is a kind of pure tempering, which can temper his heart and soul to a stronger level!

Therefore, at this moment, for Chen Mu, it is not that important to understand and experience the mystery of the nature of heaven and earth. He wants to draw the more vast and majestic power of heaven and earth to refine his heart and soul, in order to make his heart and soul One step further!

Buzz! !

Chen Mu's heart, soul, and thoughts are still further merging with the world and expanding outward. If a heavenly being were here and felt Chen Mu's movements, he would probably be shocked beyond measure.

Because normal people are extremely cautious when attacking heaven and man, let alone wantonly expanding outwards, and even have no time to restrain themselves. Most of them try their best to restrain their souls and thoughts in order to resist the erosion of heaven and earth. Overcoming this disaster faster can completely stabilize the realm of heaven and human beings.

Who dares to be like Chen Mu, who not only refuses to use the way of heaven and earth he masters to protect his own heart and soul, but also lets go of his thoughts wantonly, integrates with the wider world, and withstands the oppression of the wider world.

four hundred miles,

Five hundred miles,

six hundred miles,

…

Chen Mu could feel that his consciousness was spreading, and it no longer stopped at the Qixuan Mountains, but expanded beyond the Qixuan Mountains, including the vast town surrounding the Qixuan Sect's mountain gate.

It is not quite appropriate to call it a town, because the current Qixuan Town, due to its large population, special environment, special status and other factors, has now been designated as an independent county outside Yuzhou, and is designated as 'Qixuan County', governed by the Qixuan Sect. It is also the only area in Yuzhou that is not under the control and dispatch of Zhenbei Prefecture.

The huge Qixuan County has a population of over 10 million.

Chen Mu's consciousness swept through the streets and alleys, the houses, the dilapidated huts, and the solemn and majestic courtyards of the wealthy families.

He saw some children playing in tattered clothes but with smiling faces.

He saw a boy wearing rough clothes but with a firm look in his eyes, practicing martial arts under the scorching sun.

He saw a farmer with a tanned skin, working in the rice fields.

He saw a fat wealthy businessman in the deep courtyard of the wealthy family, enjoying fine wine and delicious food, hugging left and right.

He saw the various forms of millions of people.

He saw again that under the scorching sun, the mountain streams gradually evaporated, a little bit of water vapor rose to the sky, reached the blue sky, and silently blended with a misty cloud, brewing a future rain.

He saw again a breeze, born from the sky, coming with warmth, straightening out the qi veins between heaven and earth, gradually turning into a strong wind, whistling away, blowing up a cloud of dust.

He saw the changes of heaven and earth, the rotation of the eight phases of heaven and earth.

…

Chen Mu's sight did not stop.

Continue to move forward, continue to rise, rise to a higher sky, overlooking the vast land.

Eight hundred miles,

Nine hundred miles,

One thousand miles!

Finally, his will merged with the thousand miles of heaven and earth. For a moment, all the wind and grass movements within the thousand miles of heaven and earth were clearly reflected in his eyes. He turned his eyes slightly and saw the butterfly flapping its wings. Slightly shifted, he could see the grass and trees growing.

A master of heaven and man, whose mind and soul are integrated with the world of thousands of miles, can't escape within a thousand miles of his sight.

But.

Chen Mu's sight encompasses the world of thousands of miles, but it has never stopped. His vision is still expanding to a more vast world.

The prefecture of Yuzhou has quietly come into his sight.

His sight is like the eyes of an immortal hanging from the sky, overlooking everything in the world, gradually passing through the outer city, and then taking the entire prefecture into his sight.

He saw the Fang family, the Qin family... and the six major families that once ruled Yuzhou.

He saw Xu Qingzhao, the senior brother who once led the way for him and settled his family in the prefecture. He is still in the Supervisory Department and serves as the Supervisor of Yuzhou. He is flipping through some files and is unaware of Chen Mu's sight.

Chen Mu saw the Yu family who had arrived in Yuzhou with him. After many years, this branch of the Yu family has also spread out in the state capital. He saw some four or five-year-old children playing in the courtyard of the Yu family, which was full of vitality.

He saw his former residence.

Chen Mansion.

There were still people in this mansion.

When he arranged Xu Hongyu and others to live in Qixuan Sect, he did not bring all the servants and servants. Only a few personal maids of Xu Hongyu and others followed them, and many servants still stayed in this mansion.

Every courtyard was still clean and tidy.

Chen Mu looked inside and saw his main house. At this time, someone was carefully cleaning the dust on the tables and chairs. He knew the person. It was Le'er, one of the first maids in his house.

Le'er did not go to the gate of Qixuan Sect to continue serving Xu Hongyu and others. It was not that he deliberately stayed, but Le'er took the initiative to stay in the mansion of the state capital to take care of the mansion here, so Chen Mu did not reject it.

The young girl has grown into a graceful young lady. She has a high status in the Chen Mansion, almost equivalent to the housekeeper of the inner palace. She has also practiced martial arts with Xiao He and others, and now has good martial arts.

"Sister Le, do you think the master and the mistress will come back?"

A little girl who was about thirteen or fourteen years old, who was cleaning the room with Le Er, looked at the empty house and couldn't help but asked quietly.

Although she was a servant of the Chen Mansion, she knew more or less about the outside world. It was said that Chen Mu was now a martial saint respected by the world. Even the emperor in the court of Daxuan had to pay tribute to their master. This was a status that was almost beyond their understanding, so that they didn't dare to believe it at first.

"I don't know."

Le Er responded softly, but she kept cleaning.

She came to clean every day to prevent Chen Mu's main house from being stained with dust.

As the housekeeper of the Chen Mansion, her status is much higher than other servants. Even the powerful officials in Yuzhou are polite to her. Even though the master Chen Mu and the mistress Xu Hongyu have moved out of this mansion for many years, with Chen Mu's status like the bright sun in the sky, who dares to be rude to Le'er who followed Chen Mu in his early years?

Le'er didn't know whether Chen Mu, Xu Hongyu and others would come back. In her heart, she also thought that maybe they would never come back, but no matter what, she would guard this mansion well.

Chen Mu watched the scene in the mansion quietly.

Then he looked away and looked at the sky farther away again.

In the mansion.

Suddenly a breeze blew.

Le'er, who was cleaning the tables and chairs, was stunned and turned around in surprise, because the wind came strangely, as if it appeared out of thin air in the courtyard and in the house.

Is it the master?

She looked outside the hospital, but did not see Chen Mu's figure. Then she looked up at the sky, only to see an endless blue sky, and nothing else.

But for some reason, she felt that it was Chen Mu's gaze that had just looked at this place.

"Hail, sir."

Le'er looked steadily at the sky outside the courtyard, suddenly bowed gently, and recited silently in his heart.

…

One thousand two hundred miles,

One thousand three hundred miles,

One thousand four hundred miles,

Chen Mu's gaze continued to expand.

For ordinary masters of heaven and man, when heaven and man are united, the world and earth that their thoughts can merge with are no more than a thousand miles away, but Chen Mu is far from reaching the limit here. After more than fifteen hundred miles, he is still making further progress. open up.

One thousand seven hundred miles,

One thousand eight hundred miles,

…

finally.

Chen Mu's gaze stopped at two thousand one hundred miles away.

It's not that his mind can't expand further, but it's meaningless to continue going outside. The perception further outside is far less detailed than within these two thousand and one hundred miles. Within these two thousand and one hundred miles, his perception is as detailed as You can clearly see the lines on the leaves and the thorns on the insects, but the outside is very blurry. You can't even see the picture, and you can only barely feel some fluctuations in the energy.

"Two thousand one hundred miles, is this my current limit?"

Chen Mu muttered to himself.

It seems that compared to ordinary celestial beings, the scale of perception is only twice as long, but in fact, the difference between the range that can be perceived, between a radius of more than a thousand miles and a radius of more than two thousand miles, is far more than doubled. !

And this is the first time that he has stepped into the unity of heaven and man. He can reach this step before he has completely completed the washing and refinement of heaven and earth. After he has completely completed the transformation of heaven and man, the scope of the fusion of hearts and souls will further increase!

now.

The heart and soul blended two thousand and one hundred miles apart, and even with the power of Chen Mu's heart and soul, he still felt faintly helpless.

The majesty and majesty of heaven and earth, the endless vastness, constantly echoed in his heart and soul. He did not need to control the power of heaven and earth for more than two thousand miles of heaven and earth. That was simply not something that human power could do. But even if you don't control it, just by integrating your consciousness with this world, looking down from a high place, you are always enduring the turbulent changes of this world.

The eight phases of the universe and the rotation of heaven and earth.

The heaven and earth within a radius of more than two thousand miles are changing almost all the time. Heaven and earth, wind and thunder, water and fire... all the forces of heaven and earth change each other in turn, and this constant change is fed back to Chen Mu's Above his heart and soul, there are rolling waves like a tidal wave, constantly refining his heart and soul.

At this moment, Chen Mu could no longer pry into the heaven and earth within more than two thousand miles. He could only completely gather his will into one, condense it on that immortal aura, and then let the changes in the world wash away his desire to blend with the heaven and earth. Heart and soul.

Zizzi! !

His heart and soul were constantly trembling, and the power of his heart and soul was constantly being depleted, but at the same time, his body was absorbing the energy of heaven and earth, transforming it through his body, and nourishing his heart and soul with rich blood.

His heart and soul were strengthening little by little amid the constant wear and tear and recovery.

After reaching his current stage and condensing a little immortal aura, it is actually extremely difficult to promote the improvement of the heart and soul. Only the step of the unity of heaven and man can be taken with the help of heaven and earth. Use your strength to temper your heart and soul!

Naturally, Chen Mu would not waste this opportunity. He almost only held on to that bit of immortal aura, and then completely exposed his heart and soul to the world and endured the training of heaven and earth.

In the forbidden area of ​​Qixuan Sect.

Yin Heng and Qin Mengjun's eyes were still on Chen Mu, but the shock on their faces had faded a bit, but the waves in their eyes still had not completely subsided.

Neither of them had ever stepped forward to interfere with Chen Mu. Although they were not heavenly beings, they also knew that the step of being a heavenly being was very important. They had to go through the tempering and recognition of heaven and earth, and the length of this process was different depending on the strength of the heart and soul of different people. .

I don’t know how long it will take for Chen Mu to complete the transformation of heaven and man, but Yin Heng has already walked to the side of the Qiankun Dragon Locking Pillar, connecting the Qi machine with the Qiankun Dragon Locking Pillar to prevent any accidents, and can protect Chen Mu instantly.

Qin Mengjun also took a deep breath and observed Chen Mu's transformation.

one day,

two days,

three days,

…

time flies.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

"It's the tenth day."

Qin Mengjun looked away from Chen Mu and turned his gaze to Yin Heng, showing a hint of worry.

The transformation of a normal celestial being only takes two or three days at most. As far as she knows, the longest one does not exceed seven days, but Chen Mu has already spent ten days now, and it seems that he has not yet transformed. Finish.

Although she could still sense Chen Mu's thoughts and qi, which were fused between heaven and earth, she still had not completed the transformation for such a long time, which still made her unavoidably worried. After all, this step has not been absolutely safe since ancient times. The fusion of mind and soul After heaven and earth, there were more than one beings who were completely lost between heaven and earth and never woke up. In the end, they transformed into Tao and died.

However, she knew that Chen Mu's heart and soul were powerful and extraordinary, so she could still remain calm.

"It should be fine."

Yin Heng stared at Chen Mu from the side and said slowly: "His soul power is much stronger than that of ordinary people. It is not surprising that it takes longer to undergo transformation. The stronger the soul, the more stable it is during transformation... With his determination, impacting the heaven and man, I am afraid that he will take the initiative to expose his soul completely between heaven and earth and endure the tempering of heaven and earth."

He knew that this step, which was difficult for ordinary people, would not be a problem since Chen Mu had crossed it. It must be a natural skill. Moreover, Chen Mu was probably unwilling to simply cross that level. He might use this step to further temper his soul. After all, the soul is one of the important foundations. This was clearly stated when they talked about martial arts before.

In today's world, there are only three steps that can greatly improve the soul, namely, impacting the Xuanguan, impacting blood exchange, and impacting the heaven and man. Chen Mu now has only the last step left, so he will naturally do his best to stay here and improve.

"I hope so."

Qin Mengjun nodded gently. She naturally trusted Chen Mu, but she was just worried because of her concern.

In fact,

Just as Yin Heng expected, Chen Mu was indeed using the process of impacting the heaven and man to sharpen his heart and soul as much as possible. Now, if you look at it from the perspective of the heart and soul, you can see that the immortal aura in the depths of his heart and soul, which was originally only a little bit, has expanded to almost the size of a fist, occupying almost one-third of his complete heart and soul!

All of this is the soul power that he has sharpened bit by bit during these ten days after experiencing the tempering of heaven and earth!

Such a huge group of immortal aura can no longer be called "aura", but should be called immortal heart and soul!

At this moment.

Chen Mu can even feel that even if he loses his body, his heart and soul will float between heaven and earth, and may not dissipate. Perhaps ordinary soul power will be dissolved by heaven and earth, but the part of the heart and soul condensed into gold will not!

If the will is not dead, the heart and soul will not be destroyed. This part of the heart and soul is no longer easily destroyed by the power of heaven and earth. Even if he loses his body and becomes a rootless duckweed, it will take a very long time before he is slowly eroded and dissolved by heaven and earth.

Zizi.

The power of heaven and earth continued to refine Chen Mu's heart and soul.

Almost three days passed like this, until almost half of his heart and soul were stained with the golden immortal aura. After transforming into an immortal heart and soul, the whole world finally sent out a little undetectable ripple.

Buzz! ! !

Along with the echo of this little wave.

Chen Mu finally felt that the fusion of his heart and soul with heaven and earth was no longer awkward, and the power of heaven and earth no longer resisted the fusion of his heart and soul. For a time, his mind and heaven and earth merged and became indistinguishable, as if he had become a part of heaven and earth.

"Huh."

Chen Mu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, knowing that the transformation of the heavenly man was finally over.

However, he did not immediately restrain his thoughts, but expanded his vision, taking in the whole world of more than 2,000 miles, and then looked far away.

"Look at me now, how big a world can my heart and soul blend into."

This thought flashed through Chen Mu's mind, and then his mind moved. The immortal heart and soul that had been transformed halfway through the tempering suddenly hummed, bursting out a mighty soul power, and merged into the world.

Buzz!!!

At this moment, even Yin Heng and Qin Mengjun in the forbidden area felt the pressure spreading from Chen Mu, which made the two of them in the blood exchange realm look stern and tremble.

Both of them felt a terrifying sense of oppression spreading from Chen Mu, which made them feel suffocated vaguely, as if they were looking at a huge peak that could not be climbed, so high that it was even difficult to see the end!

"The power of the heavenly man..."

Yin Heng couldn't help but take a deep breath.

He had seen the methods of the heavenly man, and even fought with the heavenly man and escaped from the hands of the heavenly man. He was more familiar with the power of the heavenly man than Qin Mengjun.

But the feeling given by the celestial being who had chased him before was far less terrifying than the aura exuded by Chen Mu at this moment, just like the difference between a firefly and a bright moon!

Facing the former enemy, he was sure to escape, but facing Chen Mu, if he was really an enemy, he had no confidence at all to escape. The feeling given by Chen Mu was not like the gap between blood transfusion and celestial being, but like the gap between a master and blood transfusion, a whole realm difference!

At this moment.

In the vast world that Yin Heng and Qin Mengjun could not feel, Chen Mu's thoughts were spreading rapidly.

Two thousand three hundred miles,

Two thousand four hundred miles,

Two thousand five hundred miles,

His will spread to three thousand miles, and still did not stop, and continued to extend outward until it reached a range of three thousand six hundred miles. His heart and soul finally felt the effort, and his thoughts gradually stopped spreading.

At this moment, Chen Mu's will seemed to be above the sky, overlooking the area within the range of 3,600 miles. Wherever his eyes went, even the slightest movement could not escape his eyes!

"3,600 miles..."

Chen Mu murmured in his heart.

Looking at the whole world, I am afraid that no one can spread his thoughts to a wider range than him now in the state of unity between man and nature.

As for the power of heaven and earth that he can control and mobilize, although it is not as large as 3,600 miles, it is at least one percent of the scope, at least he can mobilize the power of heaven and earth within dozens of miles, making the heaven and earth within dozens of miles almost like his domain!

This range is also extremely terrifying. An ordinary heavenly being can control the power of heaven and earth within a thousand feet range, which is a range of several miles. It is already quite terrifying. It completely widens the strength gap with ordinary blood exchange realms, and he is even stronger. More than ten times!

Take this step.

The power of his mind and soul controls the world, and the power he can unleash is even catching up with the power of his body!

It can be said that the step of being a heavenly being is a real qualitative change. Before taking this step, the power of the heart and soul can only play a somewhat assistive role. The power of the domain is of no significance at this stage of Chen Mu, but after taking this step It's completely different. Not only has the range of perception been greatly increased, but the body and mind are combined with heaven and earth, and the power of heaven and earth that can be mobilized is also a vast force of heaven!

Nowadays, he can shock a top grandmaster to death with just one look, and within a radius of dozens of miles, he can suppress blood-changing beings like Yin Heng and Qin Mengjun with just one thought!

Ordinary exchange of blood has become like an ant.

"If we judge it according to the ninth level of gods, I should be at the fourth level of gods, almost invincible. I just don't have a complete immortal body or immortal soul. I don't know. Can you fight against the existence of the fifth level?"

Chen Mu's eyes were deep and he looked up at the sky, looking towards the boundless sky.

He is very close to the divine realm.
