The evil cultivation of immortality, starting from an apprentice in a medicine shop

A secret cave on a cliff in the mountains.

In the hanging cave, Qiu Zhen opened his eyes leisurely, with a bit of confusion in his eyes.

It was still night before the retreat, but now the sun was blazing in the sky, and the warm sunshine poured into the depths of the hanging cave.

Soon, he thought of something.

He quickly looked at his hands for the first time, then looked down at himself.

Look around and explore.

No abnormalities were found in the body.

He is neither missing arms or legs, nor is he like a demon in miscellaneous books, with a green face, fangs, horns and tail, or some kind of physical change.

In a flash of thought, his hands and feet move freely.

There were no signs of demons seizing the body or losing control of themselves.

It's like everything never happened.

"Is this done?"

Qiu Zhen murmured to himself, feeling greatly surprised.

Amid the warnings from the "past masters" of the Jinbo people, the immortal method of practicing this alchemy method can be said to be dangerous and unpredictable. One bad thing is that the body will die and the Tao will disappear.

He was prepared for the worst.

In order to seek the truth, he put life and death aside, hoping to break through all the fog and obstacles with fearlessness, and experience an unparalleled experience.

However, things were beyond his expectation.

After his eyes returned to the light and he fell into tranquility, he felt that the energy and blood in his body were flowing smoothly, his expression was happy, and his body and mind were comfortable, as if he was slightly drunk;

It feels like I just got out of the bath, and my whole body is filled with yang energy.

The seven-foot body seems to be made of gold and piled with white jade. It will never collapse or decay.

The body and mind are clear and extremely transparent.

Then, everything felt quiet again, as if a great sun had risen to the sky, and the earth was filled with brilliant golden light.

Suddenly, in the boundless silence, the yang energy in his body sprouted, and a little innate true yang was born.

The surrounding becomes a bright world, without fear of any cold wind or frost.

The separation of life and death, worries and pain, all turn into nothingness.

Every breath seems to turn into a hundred years, delaying the journey of life cycle.

At this moment, he seemed to have transcended the reincarnation of thousands of tribulations.

Unknowingly, he returned to his previous life - a metropolis with bright neon lights and rolling torrents of steel.

This feeling is very strange.

However, he has a clear understanding that he is from here, but he does not belong here.

He was like a God, standing proudly in the clouds, looking down at the vast land.

Observe the people coming and going and the busy traffic in cities and towns;

Witnessing the joys and sorrows of the world, birth, old age, illness and death.

Witness the rapid development of the times;

The torrent is rolling incessantly.

It's like a big dream that lasts for a thousand years.

"Whether it's successful or not, you can clearly see if you look inside."

In the cave hanging on the cliff, Qiu Zhen quickly grasped the key after meditating.

During this retreat, he entered a state of stillness, and his eyes were able to reflect back and observe his own body. This was a gain from this retreat and would be of great benefit to his future practice.

The golden light of his eyes bloomed slightly, looking inwards at his own body.

Soon, Qiu Zhen had a strange look on his face.

Under Jinhua's eyes.

He caught a glimpse of "himself" with his chest bare and cross-legged, sitting in the clouds, with his head lowered and eyes closed, surrounded by golden light, surrounded by endless numbers and mysterious symbols, like an immortal Buddha, exuding a transcendent and sacred aura.

What surprised Qiu Zhen even more was that

Behind the "Immortal Buddha Qiuzhen" is a bright neon metropolis, with people coming and going, a constant flow, and full of vitality.

"this"

Qiu Zhen was dumbfounded and fell into deep thought.

Rumor has it that the Buddha has three bodies.

That is, Dharma body, Sambhogakaya, and Response body.

Vairocana Buddha (Great Sun Tathagata) is the Dharmakaya Buddha, Lusana Buddha is the Sambhogakaya Buddha, and Sakyamuni Buddha is the Corresponding Body.

Principles and Dharmas gather together to form the Dharmakaya.

Dharmakaya Buddha, the Great Sun Tathagata, is the personal truth, the true source of life, the eighth consciousness that is self-sufficient, has no beginning and no end, neither birth nor death, neither going nor coming, can give rise to all dharmas, and will not be destroyed. It is called Alaya Consciousness, also known as Tathagatagarbha.

What the Tathagata hides is the "Tathagata's fetus".

By cultivating the eighth consciousness "alaya consciousness" and cultivating it to a certain degree, you can become a Buddha.

In fact, the Dharmakaya, which has no beginning and no end, is the true source of human life.

In Taoism, Dharmakaya is called the soul, and Tathagatagarbha is called "the body outside the body."

Living beings are born with a soul, but ordinary people cannot awaken it. Only those with advanced spiritual realms can awaken the soul.

Qiu Zhen's practice of the Alchemy Method is to reach the sky in one step. Instead of cultivating the Yin Shen and then the Yuan Shen step by step, he starts directly from cultivating the "Yuan Shen" that is the original source of human life.

In other words, the "immortal Buddha Qiuzhen" that "returns to light" and appears in front of him is the dharma body transformed by his soul, and is his "Tathagatagarbha" and "body outside the body".

However, unlike the legendary immortal Buddha's "Dharmakaya Yuanshen", his Yuanshen stood in the bright neon city of his previous life, surrounded by infinite numbers and various mysterious symbols.

"Good guy, what kind of cyber soul and cyber body is this?"

Qiu Zhen was amazed.

His image of Yuan Shen Dharmakaya would probably be extremely explosive and wild in the ancient world of immortal cultivation.

But when he thought about it carefully, he felt that it was somewhat reasonable.

"Yuanshen" is the most original life of every living being, innate and unique.

He became enlightened about his past life, and his "primordial spirit" was the "projection" of his situation and state of mind.

Although this strange scene is unexpected, it is also reasonable.

"No, is it really done?"

Qiu Zhenxu, who was overjoyed, thought of something and frowned.

It seems that the seniors who left messages in Jinbo said so.

The world has changed greatly, and now is the age of the end of the Dharma. Immortal cultivators will turn into evil spirits if they are not careful, which is extremely dangerous.

"Building the Foundation in a Hundred Days" is the most critical step in the cultivation process. If it goes so smoothly, is there any hidden danger?

Could it be that the "Qiu Zhen Cyber ​​Dharma Body" under internal observation is not the "Yuan Shen" and "Natural Dharma Body" at all, but an illusion of the devil to confuse him, making him relax his vigilance and fall into the devil's realm step by step?

"That's a problem."

Reason poured water on him.

Thinking of this, Qiu Zhen couldn't help but feel a little less excited and happy.

However, he did not feel any fear or fear.

The soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it with earth.

Regardless of whether "Qiu Zhen Dharmakaya" is transformed by the soul or a demon, as long as the situation is not irreversible, it doesn't matter.

At that moment, he became more interested. He took out the "golden silk" from his arms and put it into the clear water that had been stored in the pit in the cave, intending to observe the subsequent methods in the golden silk.

The gold and silk fell into the water and splashed.

However, the golden scene did not happen as he imagined.

The golden silk fabric turned into an ordinary piece of brocade silk, nothing out of the ordinary.

"That's all. Having this opportunity is already a blessing. You can't be too greedy."

Qiu Zhen was not too disappointed.

After getting started with the 100-day foundation building method of the divine alchemy in the golden silk, you can switch from the "sudden method" of alchemy to the "gradual method" and practice martial arts life skills, which is also the only way to become an immortal.

Without Jin Bo's follow-up method, it would be okay for him to look for opportunities outside.

"I don't know what the magical effect is of awakening the soul."

Qiu Zhen couldn't help but look forward to it, and began to meditate again.
