The Only Cultivator In The World

Chapter 22 Return to Fairy Cave

In fact, Meng Yu also mentioned it casually, because this is something that every superpower user knows very well. To this day, basically all superpower inheritors know the rules of this society. Even if the disciples of the Hidden World Sect come out to practice, the elders of the sect will give many warnings and will not let the disciples make such mistakes easily.

This is why when Tian Xiao met Ma Jiushan for the first time a few days ago, Ma Jiushan's first reaction was not to reveal his powers, but to cover them up in every possible way, until Tian Xiao, a stupid young man, revealed his abilities beyond ordinary people in front of Tang Yunyun. Ability, the reason why Ma Jiushan fought back.

"Thank you, Master Meng, for reminding me!" Tian Xiao cupped his fists and bowed to Meng Yu, and was really shocked. He was secretly recalling whether he had exposed his extraordinary power too much these days. Fortunately, after thinking for a moment, he didn't find any behavior that was too rash.

The only time he appeared in public was when he rescued Sun Yongjiang's daughter Sun Rongrong out of desperation. But that time, no one seemed to see it due to the remoteness of the street. Although there is surveillance nearby, as long as nothing happens, no one will observe it. After all, with so much surveillance, who would pay attention to what is happening on a remote road all the time?

In addition, he only told a few people who were close to him about his identity as a cultivator. Tian Xiao believed that they would not leak the matter.

Early on the third day, Tian Xiao said goodbye to Wang Jintong and others, and went to Wuyunshan Station alone.

In addition to visiting his old friends, his main purpose this time was to try to see if he could cut off his mortal heart and reopen the path of cultivation in the Immortal Cave.

Now he has met both Liu Cheng and Chen Xuhang, and he also unexpectedly met Sun Yongjiang, settling a piece of cause and effect left behind back then. And this time he was born, he did stop some of the distracting thoughts he had in the cave before.

At that time, he thought that he had succeeded in cultivation and could live a prosperous life in the outside world. However, after seeing the lives of some ordinary people, he gradually lost his yearning for such a life.

He has seen Sun Yongjiang who is at the bottom but is willing to live in a corner; he has seen Tang Yunyun who was born ordinary but refused to be mediocre and went astray; he has seen Liu Cheng who has a good quality of life but is struggling with marriage; The lonely and painful Chen Xuhang.

The world is prosperous, but life is short. Ordinary people's lives are always busy, filled with joy, anger, sorrow, and joy. It is all practice. A thousand people have a thousand faces and a thousand different stories. Tian Xiao doesn't think being ordinary is bad. On the contrary, if he has a choice, he would rather his parents are still alive. Even if his life is a little harder, he can have a warm home and live his life in an ordinary way without fighting or grabbing. , not seeking wealth, this is the best result.

But now he has nothing.

Even if you have money, where will you spend it?

Even if you are powerful, who will you show it to?

He no longer has any worries in the world and is alone. The so-called prosperous age still has nothing to do with him as it was thirteen years ago.

Although it had only been a few days, he was tired.

Sometimes he even misses the Xianjia Cave where he has lived for thirteen years. Sometimes the life inside can really make people feel lonely, but in fact, as long as you calm down, it may not be boring.

In the Xianjia Cave, he is breaking through himself every day and getting stronger. There is a great ancient world in it. In that world, immortals can fly into the sky and escape to the earth to do anything! Various monsters, monsters and monsters are powerful and mysterious!

He seemed to be able to see such a world, where the treasures of nature, materials and earth in famous mountains and swamps had endless magical uses, attracting countless masters to sacrifice their lives to go there. In the terrifying abyss, there are all kinds of magical and powerful monsters, staring at the world! Nine days ago, a fairy court stood up to protect all directions. Under the Nine Netherworld, there are ghosts and ghosts, and demons dance wildly, connecting reincarnations!

Perhaps this is what the earth once looked like, a glorious and powerful mythical era!

But what happened next that caused the mythical age to completely break apart, causing the earth to become what it is today?

He has now experienced and seen a lot of things that ordinary people have no access to. In fact, deep down in his heart, he has many questions and endless yearnings.

Rather than living in this careless mortal world, he now wants to work hard to become stronger. He wants to tear apart the black curtain that covers history with his own hands and step into the mythical era of the past!

It is not certain whether Tian Xiao has been cut off from the secular heart. He does not hate the current society. Even from the perspective of a bystander, he feels that although this prosperous and prosperous world is ordinary, it is also wonderful. Ordinary people's joys, sorrows, joys and sorrows, love and hatred, can also make people feel unforgettable and colorful. It's just that he can't blend in, or in other words, he doesn't want to take the initiative to blend in.

There is a truth in Taoism: everything should be allowed to take its course and should not be forced. If he were to join the world forcefully, he would indeed be able to live a good life with his current abilities. He could form a new family of his own and reestablish a bond with the world. But doing this is not to let nature take its course, but to deliberately force it and pursue a certain result with purpose.

This is not what he wants.

So now he already wants to go back, return to the Xianjia Cave, and continue his life of ascetic cultivation in isolation from the world.

But before that, Tian Xiao decided to walk around and see more. After all, he had only been out for a few days. Although his mentality had changed a lot, it was only a temporary feeling and could not represent his long-term thoughts.

Now Tian Xiao has a legal status and can travel around the country. In fact, he thought the same way. In his previous worldly life, due to family constraints, he had not actually been to many places, not even out of the province! He went to university in this province, and even found summer and winter jobs near the school.

So now he plans to visit the great rivers and mountains of his motherland and see the scenery of this world with his own eyes.

In this way, it can be regarded as traveling around the world and refining one's heart in the world of mortals. While appreciating the beautiful rivers and mountains, you can also look at the various aspects of life in the world, so as to refine your Taoist heart.

If you can see all the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, it will be considered as fulfilling a wish!

Tian Xiao chose a famous tourist attraction in the province that day, bought a ticket at the station, and started his journey!

Fortunately, Chen Xuhang transferred a large amount of money to Tian Xiao, so that he could leave at will now, otherwise he would have to find a way to earn fare.

It took Tian Xiao more than three months to leave!

In three months, he visited most of the famous scenic spots and historic sites across the country, including Mingchuan Daze.

He has been to the top of Mount Tai, to the banks of the Yellow River, climbed Mount Everest, and entered the Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon.

I have seen grasslands, snow-capped mountains, lakes, rivers, and the sea.

I have been to ancient cities, ruins, cities, pavilions, and palaces.

At the same time, he has been to many inaccessible places. Some places are too dangerous for ordinary people, but he can try to enter.

Along the way, he helped many people with his Taoist and medical skills. Although they were all acquaintances, he also saw the different local customs.

In the past three months, his Taoist mind has been sublimated to a great extent, leaving him with a sense of wonder at the majestic rivers and mountains and an understanding of the various conditions in the world.

Perhaps it was because he went deep into nature with all his heart and soul that he realized the eternity of the sun, moon, mountains and rivers and the true meaning of life. He now believes that people really shouldn't be trapped in a city. At least they should pursue the magic of nature spiritually, and should not be bound by daily necessities or money. In mind, people should turn to Tao and nature, pursue the sublimation of the soul, integrate their soul infinitely into the heaven and earth, and seek the eternal truth of the coexistence of spirit and all things.

Regardless of whether these thoughts and feelings are right, or whether they are just a whim and an illusion, at least now he is more determined to pursue the Tao, and he wants to pursue the legendary immortals who live as long as heaven and travel to all realms. realm!

So he finally returned to Wangxian Mountain, and with a pious heart towards Taoism, he once again set foot on the road to Xianjia Cave.

When approaching the location of the cave, Tian Xiao couldn't help but become nervous. At this moment, he suddenly worried about gains and losses, fearing that the Immortal Cave would be closed to him from now on, and his path to immortality would be cut off!

Because there is no standard for cutting off the mortal mind, Tian Xiao is not sure whether his current mentality can meet the approval of the unknown ancient book.

Furthermore, if I really pass the test and can continue on the path of cultivating immortality, does that mean I have to be isolated from the world from now on? Will he be sealed in the cave again, maybe the next time he will be born will be a hundred years later?

If this is the case, Tian Xiao is actually very unwilling. Although he has no thoughts of joining the world now, after all, there are people he knows in the world. If he is completely isolated from the outside world from now on, does that mean that he will never have the opportunity to meet his two brothers again?

A hundred years later, the outside world may have become completely unfamiliar, and there will no longer be any proof of the human nature that I once had?

For a time, Tian Xiao's psychology became extremely complicated.

Tian Xiao walked towards the Xianjia Cave according to the route in his memory. In less than an hour, he arrived at the place where he was born.

"Is this the entrance to the cave? That's great, it's still there!"

When he saw that the entrance to the Xianjia Cave was still in place, Tian Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt that a big stone hanging on his chest had finally fallen to the ground!

The Xianjia Cave is still the same as when he left it, with basically no changes. It is like an ordinary stone cave. From the outside, there is nothing extraordinary at all.

Tian Xiao calmed down his anxious thoughts, took a deep breath, and then jumped into the cave.

The cave was still the same as before, without any change. Everything familiar in front of him made Tian Xiao feel inexplicably warm. Having lived here for thirteen years, it would be a lie to say that I have no feelings. In fact, unknowingly, he has regarded this place as his home. Although he is alone, this is the only place in the world where he feels that he belongs!

Tian Xiao quickly came to the main room. The stone tables and chairs were still quietly placed in their original places, spotless. The nameless ancient book in the center of the stone table is still placed there without moving at all.

Everything was as it was when he left. Although the stone room was particularly quiet, it made Tian Xiao feel very warm!

Tian Xiao smiled unconsciously, like a wanderer who had finally returned home from afar. The joyful emotion could not be suppressed at all.

Tian Xiao sat down at the stone table, stretched out his hand and gently rubbed the nameless ancient book, trying to calm down his mind, and then gently opened the nameless ancient book.

The nameless ancient book suddenly emitted a faint golden light, and some words gradually appeared on the pages.

"When you embark on the path of immortality, you will have no connection with the earthly world. Once an immortal sleeps, the world will change for hundreds of years. Now your ordinary heart has been cut off. From now on, you should concentrate on asking questions and not be fettered by the disputes of the earthly world."

Seeing the words in the unknown ancient book, Tian Xiao was excited, but also felt a little heavy in his heart.

Although I don’t know what the evaluation criteria of the unknown ancient book are, it seems that I have recognized myself now, and I can continue my journey of cultivating immortality in the future.

But has he really cut off his mortal mind?

Tian Xiao didn't think so. At least he was still a little worried about Liu Cheng and Chen Xuhang. If possible, he still wanted to go out and get together with them if he had the chance.

After all, they were only two people who had such a close relationship. Tian Xiao still found it a bit difficult to accept that they would never see each other again.

Tian Xiao shook his head slightly, put aside these distracting thoughts for the time being, and continued to open the second page of the unknown ancient book.

"My way is called 'Earth Immortal Way'. There are two ways of immortality, one is the Heavenly Immortal Way, and the other is the Earthly Immortal Way. Heavenly Immortals do not cultivate the mortal body, but only cultivate the immortal body. To become a Heavenly Immortal, you need to kill the mortal body and become an Immortal without Stain. The body ascends. Earthly immortals use the mortal body as their foundation to seek sanctification of the physical body."

"Nowadays, the immortal world is dominated by the Celestial Immortal Dao. This is probably because the Celestial Immortal Dao body is condensed by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Innate and Tao are combined. Cultivation is fast and promotion is easy."

"The Earth Immortal Way does not give up the body, and is often derogatorily called 'turbid immortal' by the Celestial Immortal Way. Earth Immortal cultivation is slow, and promotion must be a disaster. Under the power of God, not one of the ten Earth Immortals can survive. Therefore, the Immortals in the Immortal World, Earth Immortals There is no such thing as one among ten thousand.”

"Damn it! You're cheating!"

Seeing this, Tian Xiao almost couldn't help but throw the unknown ancient book to the ground, almost crying without tears!

What about the great fairy fate we promised? Why don't you pass on the good Immortal Way, but pass on some earth-shattering Immortal Way? No matter what it sounds like, this thing is about to be eliminated by the fairy world, why do you still pass it down!

Isn’t this a scam?

He is also called "Zhuoxian", which is not a good term at first sight! Are you going to be struck by lightning every time you get promoted? Under the power of heaven, not even one of the ten earthly immortals can survive!

Immortal ancestor, this earthly immortal must have violated the rules of heaven!

At this time, Tian Xiao felt as if he had stepped on dog poop. He was determined and full of expectations to officially embark on the path of cultivating immortality, but in the end he inherited such a thing that was almost eliminated?

"Hey... forget it, Zhuo Xian is also an immortal. For today's Dharma-ending era, even the inheritance that was once eliminated by the fairy world is a great thing. If you can learn something, you can at least walk sideways in today's alien world. As for lifting the heavy veil of history... let's wait and see if we can survive the catastrophe..."

Tian Xiao sighed deeply. But if you think about it carefully, Zhuo Xian is also an immortal. He has already become a first-rate master in the human world before he has even started. If he really wants to become an Earth Immortal, wouldn't he be honored on earth?

After all, today is different from the past. It is no longer the mythical era where gods were flying all over the sky and demons were everywhere. Although the Earth Immortal Way is about to be eliminated, it is a legacy left over from the Mythical Era, and it once had a place in the Mythical Era. In today's Dharma-ending Era, it is indeed a top inheritance that can dominate the world!

Look at what the inheritance in the alien world looks like today. The inheritance of Mai Guan, which is chaired by a dignified real person, can even compare with a random ghost-raising technique recorded in the "Tao Jing"! I have received a genuine inheritance from the Immortal Family, what else is there to be dissatisfied about?

Thinking of this, Tian Xiao suddenly felt much happier!

"Sure enough, only by being content can you always be happy!"

Tian Xiao turned to the next page of the unknown ancient book, and the faint golden font appeared again.

"Although it is not easy to practice the Earth Immortal Way, its combat power is amazing. In the same realm, the Earth Immortal is invincible."

After seeing only the first sentence, Tian Xiao almost said "fuck"!

The earthly immortals in the same realm are invincible!

So awesome?

So there’s a reason why it’s so difficult to practice?

Tian Xiao calmed down and quickly compared the quality of the Earthly Immortal Way and the Celestial Immortal Way in his mind. He felt that it was necessary to re-evaluate the Earthly Immortal Way, which he thought was about to be eliminated.

Being invincible at the same level, what a temptation is this? Although training is not easy, if you can reach the strongest level, shouldn't you be eliminated?

Tian Xiao thought about this question over and over in his mind, and soon discovered some details that he had not noticed just now.

First of all, the most obvious shortcoming of earthly immortal cultivation is that you will face heavenly tribulation every time you advance. Even the unknown ancient books say that under the heavenly catastrophe, not even one out of ten earthly immortals will survive. It is conceivable how terrifying the heavenly calamity faced by the earthly immortals is. If they are not careful, they will be blown to ashes!

After a lifetime of hard training, in the end a thunder will strike you dead, just ask who is not afraid!

Secondly, there is another reason that may not seem very important, but is the most fatal, and that is slow cultivation!

Don't think that as long as you can be the strongest, it doesn't matter if you are slower. You have to consider the background of the times! What is the background of the mythical age? The sky is filled with gods, Buddhas, gods and demons dancing wildly! At every turn, some demon king destroys the world and evildoers run rampant. Even the world of cultivating immortals can never be harmonious. They must fight for various resources if they disagree!

Under such a background of the times, what is the use of being invincible in the same realm? No matter how invincible you are at the same level, there will always be a great god at a higher level than you. Maybe they will be afraid that you will grow up and threaten them, so they will strangle you in the cradle first!

Unless you can reach the highest level, then you will be respected in the world, and if you are invincible at the same level, you will be the boss. Otherwise, as long as there is someone above you who is higher than you, you will still be a grandson!

Just imagine, today you beat an enemy of the same level to the ground, but many years later he is a level higher than you, or even more than one level higher. How do you beat him?

If someone is practicing faster than you, you can only stare!

In such an era of chaotic chaos between gods and demons, only rapid rise can have the capital to gain a foothold. In comparison, the so-called later development is actually not that important.

After all, you have to have a later stage!

If the sect is not particularly powerful and can guarantee to provide you with time to develop and protect you during your weak period, then it would be natural for most people to choose the Celestial Path that can lead to quick success!

After thinking about this, Tian Xiao suddenly felt enlightened!

It's not that the earthly immortal way is not strong, but due to the background of the times, if you want to live well, the heavenly immortal way is the best choice.

But now that I am practicing the Immortal Way, do I have such concerns?

Absolutely not!

Not to mention that there are no wars in the peaceful and prosperous age, even if chaos does occur, who can compete with the complete Earth Immortal Dao based on the sporadic inheritance of this Dharma-ending era?

As long as you practice a little bit and achieve some success, you can walk sideways in the alien world when you go out!

The only thing that deserves Tian Xiao's vigilance is the heavenly catastrophe that leaves no earth immortal alive!

I wonder if there will really be a catastrophe in today's era? If there was no heavenly tribulation, wouldn’t he just take off?

Tian Xiao suddenly felt that he could do it again! When you get up and develop slowly, and when you become a truly omnipotent immortal who can reach heaven and earth, then try to explore the past mythical era!

If the former fairy world was not really destroyed, but went to other places, then maybe I still have a chance to enter the real fairy world? By then, with my status as an invincible Earth Immortal at the same level, maybe I can walk sideways in the Immortal Realm?

By then, if you don’t marry ten or eight beautiful fairies, you will be sorry for the days when you have to practice silently in the cave!

"Hey hey hey..."

Tian Xiao fell into his own sweet dream and laughed so obscenely that his saliva almost flowed out.
