420: Chapter 63: Nature as a Teacher, Enlightennt Again (3/3) 420: Chapter 63: Nature as a Teacher, Enlightennt Again (3/3) “Is this…the reason nature can condense the various types of spirit Qi between heaven and earth?
The Qi of the myriad heavens acts as a net, filtering and ultimately precipitating the purest Qi, refining it into various spirit ores and wondrous objects…”
If a common cultivator were to ponder this, they might think of mimicking the function of the Demon Core’s pure spiritual power, filtering their own spirit Qi in a similar manner.
If a genius martial artist were involved, perhaps they could truly accomplish this feat, developing a secret technique that could fortify and nourish the origin.
But such secret techniques are not uncommon in Embracing the Void.
Indeed, many Qi Nourishing thods fundantally involve a continuous practice process that is essentially no different from the Demon Core refining spirit Qi thod.
This kind of understanding is rely reinventing the wheel, though it is indeed praiseworthy and deserves to be called ‘genius’.
This is the first layer of enlightennt.
But at this mont, as he gazed at Cang’s small Demon Core, An Jing had a deeper realization in his heart, “Both humans and demon spirits learn from nature.”
“Humans imitate the principles of nature, thus they cultivate Qi and beco enlightened on the Immortal Path.
Demons imitate the form of nature, thus their bodies beco Law Domains of heaven and earth.”
“Although the Demon Core of the demon spirit’s path appears to be a core, essentially, it is a small spirit vein forged within the demon spirit’s body—spirit veins in nature are not naturally ford but are aggregated and precipitated spirit Qi since the creation of the world, condensing in specific locations into specific veins.”
“The path of the martial artist is also quite similar, condensing the five Divine Abnormalities within the body into martial ridians, connecting heaven and earth, perhaps also a derivative of the demon spirit thod…”
“No!
Although it’s a deeper understanding than the initial enlightennt, this is definitely not the true purpose of the demon spirit thod and Martial Arts!”
Though he had reached a deeper understanding than usual creators of techniques, An Jing still resolutely denied his own thoughts.
His brows were furrowed tightly, and his eyes sparkled with light as he delved deeper into observing the Demon Core and the changes in the surrounding nature’s spiritual energy.
At the sa ti, the spiritual Qi around An Jing erupted, subtly rging with the surrounding world, causing Huo Qing and Iron Hand, who had been discussing their movents over the past two days, to co over involuntarily to check on him, while Subdue Evil and Cang were astounded to see that An Jing had perfectly integrated with the surrounding nature.
Cang involuntarily weakened in the knees, respectfully lifting up the Demon Core in his hands—An Jing’s current aura even surpassed that of the Mountain Master they had seen before…
grander and closer to the essence of heaven and earth!
—Had An Jing achieved enlightennt?!
“A second enlightennt?”
While Huo Qing and Iron Hand were surprised, even more astonished was Subdue Evil, “An Jing has achieved enlightennt?
Just by imitating the Demon Core?”
“Is it Heavenly Mandate Feedback?
Or is it driven by destiny?
No…
this, this is the first enlightennt…
this is entirely due to his own talent!”
“Has An Jing entered an enlightennt state through his own understanding?!”
Subduing Evil found it incredible, but it was indeed true.
At this mont, An Jing’s mind beca more and more fluid, with countless inspirations and ideas bursting forth from his heart, relying neither on Heavenly Mandate nor on anything else, but solely on his own spirit’s comprehension and expression: “That’s it!
The crude Demon Cores mimic the formation of natural ore veins, so the truly sophisticated Demon Cores mimic sothing even grander, the formation of a Spirit Mountain, a Blessed Land and Cave Heaven!
Thus, one speaks of a hundred Qi, a thousand Qi, ten thousand Qi.”
“This is also the rudint of Martial Arts, mimicking Spirit Mountains and Blessed Lands, and after death transforming into a sect’s mountain gate!”
“But what about the highest level?
What natural form does the most brilliant Demon Core mimic?”
“The opening of heaven and earth, the formation of all things…”
He murmured, “Yes, that’s it—the Demon Core mimics this very process of heaven and earth’s creation, where myriad spirits settle and ultimately integrate perfectly, solidifying into form!”
“In other words, the fundantal true intent of the Demon Spirit’s path does not lie in the first simple level of ‘Purification and Refinent’, nor in the second level of the Spirit Vein’s ‘Gathering of Myriad Spirits’, nor even in the third level of the Blessed Land and Cave Heaven’s ‘Perfect Integration’, but in the process of ‘all things taking form’ after the creation of the world!”
“And what about True Spirits?”
“Before I beheld this flower, the flower and my heart returned to stillness together; when I ca to see this flower, the flower adopted the colors of my heart…”
“Without a spirit’s perspective, how can one define form?
Between heaven and earth, as the initial form appears, so too does consciousness—the True Spirit!”
“That’s it, at the dawn of heaven and earth, the first living being born was the ‘True Spirit’…
So that’s how it is!”
At this mont, An Jing suddenly realized, “The True Spirit Blood of the Demon Spirit is not ford by refining bloodlines and tapping into ancient ancestors!”
“It is through the cultivation of the Demon Core, with the Demon Core serving as the pivotal center, recreating the state of the world’s creation within one’s body, allowing one’s body gradually to transform towards that of an initial True Spirit!”
“And the Ancestral Dragon as a being of ‘Ex Nihilo,’ truly lives up to its na—the initial form of the True Spirit is precisely the process of ‘nothing gradually fostering existence’ before creation.
The Ancestral Dragon holds true to this Heavenly Mandate as the progenitor of True Spirits in the Embracing the Void realm, its mandate being to leverage its essence, which is closest to that of heaven and earth, to birth more True Spirits!”
“Haha!
The common saying of the ‘Demon Spirit bloodline’ path, its essence turns out not to rely on bloodlines at all, but on the path of wisdom!
Even a squirrel, if smart enough, hardworking enough, can gather ten thousand Qi, harmonize nature, and then mimic the initial state of creation, gradually transforming itself into a ‘True Spirit’, and condense a drop of True Spirit Blood!”
Of course, there are also Demon Spirits who naturally inherit the True Spirit Blood of their ancestors, born close to the path, possessing divine powers from the dawn of the world, but if they fail to realize the fundantal path of Demon Spirits, they will stagnate at that point, restricted by their bloodlines, and unable to advance even an inch!
At this mont, An Jing took out the ‘Supre Celestial True Solution’ from the Great Void Magical Instrunt—regrettably, the related codex associated with the ‘True Dragon Spine’ had not yet been retrieved from Ruohui.
But never mind, having it was already enough for now.
“In the company of three, there must be my teacher, nature itself teaches… Even the simple Demon Core path of the little Cangsu Cang’s Demon Spirit has granted trendous enlightennt!”
At this mont, An Jing’s mind was exceptionally clear, his thinking more agile than ever before as he flipped through this True Transmission codex of Heaven’s Will Demon Sect, understanding its secrets at an astonishingly fast pace: “Demon Spirit thod, the Formation and Alchemical thod of Immortal Path, and the Body Refinent thod.
Artifact Refining thod, various paths not solely dependent on pure Spiritual Qi, eventually converging into the current Embracing the Void Fate Pattern Martial Arts.”
“The Demon Spirit thod mimics the form of the world, restoring the initial state of creation, condensing True Spirit Blood in the process, and shares similarities as well as differences with Martial Arts—for Martial Arts not only mimic the creation but also the forming of the world, the operation of the world, and even… the final collapse of the world!”
