Chapter 317: Ten Steps to Immortality

"Your soul is very powerful, your Taoism is profound, and you can understand by analogy. Your understanding of the "Puppet Technique" [Level 8] has been further deepened, and your proficiency is +0.8."

"Congratulations! Your proficiency in the [Eighth Grade] technique "Puppet Technique" has reached 1, and you have officially learned this technique."

"Congratulations! You have a profound realm and a commanding position. You have mastered the "Puppet Technique" [Level 8] and your proficiency is +21,000."

…

[Level 8] Puppetry: Dzogchen (21000/21000)

It can destroy the soul of a living person with powerful mental power and refine its body into its own puppet. The nobler the person was during life, the more powerful the puppet will be.

Can control up to three puppets at the same time.

…

Almost as soon as he was attacked by the puppet technique, Zhou Heng learned this technique, understood all its principles, and many methods of application, completely surpassing the immortal master "Han Lin" in front of him.

While Han Lin was using the puppet technique on "Ye Long", he felt as if his spiritual power was in contact with a golden ocean, and he was extremely small and insignificant compared to it.

"How is it possible? How could a mortal have such a powerful soul??" Han Lin was in disbelief. The expression on his face was horrified. This was his last thought.

Zhou Heng thought slightly, and his extremely powerful consciousness instantly overwhelmed Han Lin's spirit, destroying everything without any effort. At the same time, he also used the puppet technique to make Han Lin his puppet.

"It turns out that Han Lin was so frantic in refining the puppet in order to deal with his enemies." Zhou Heng asked the puppet to unbind himself and read the memory fragments he got from Han Lin.

In addition to being able to turn living people into puppets, the Puppet Technique can also obtain some tiny memory fragments. Although it is far from as comprehensive as the memory drop card and has a strong randomness, it is still quite practical.

In addition to Han Lin's information about his enemies, Zhou Heng also learned about some of the world's spiritual practices.

Although Cheng Jiangjian said before that this world is mainly based on the practice of magic and does not pay much attention to physical training, in fact, she has not studied it in depth. She only knows some superficial information, which is not comprehensive.

From Han Lin's memory fragments, Zhou Heng learned that the cultivators in this world call themselves "monks", and those who have achieved a certain level of cultivation will be revered as "Great Masters", and those who are higher are called "land gods".

It advocates using the "contemplation method" to refine the soul and condense the soul into an entity image that symbolizes a certain law, and then interfere with reality, mobilize the vitality of heaven and earth, and perform various magic techniques.

This process has ten levels: concentration, concentration, trance, night tour, control of objects, day tour, true form, manifestation of the sage, heavenly mind, and Taoist spirit.

This is called the "Ten Steps to Immortality".

It is said that as long as you take these ten steps, you will be able to transcend the ordinary world completely, lift the clouds in the daytime, and ascend to the fairyland.

From now on, he will live forever and everlastingly.

This Han Lin has reached the realm of beast control and can cast some small spells such as fireballs, ice arrows, and lightning. The power is not low, and he is enough to be respected as an immortal master in the mortal world.

"Han Lin's soul is equivalent to the level of an eighth-level warrior. But purely in terms of attack power and attack range, monks in the realm of object control have far surpassed all eighth-level warriors."

Zhou Heng couldn't help but marveled, but he also knew the shortcomings of this kind of soul monk, "It's just that the physical body of this kind of monk is too weak. If the physical body of an object-controlling monk like Han Lin is not much stronger than that of ordinary people, once he is eight If a martial artist gets close, he will be punched to death."

In short, judging from the information obtained from Han Lin's memory fragments, before the true form realm, the monk's physical body is very fragile. As for the true form realm, or even higher levels, the situation is unknown.

It's not that there is no relevant information in Han Lin's memory fragments, but that as a casual cultivator, he has very little understanding of high-level information.

Being able to know the specific names of the Ten Steps of Immortal Sect is actually more than many casual cultivators.

"According to Jiang Jian's previous estimate, the strongest person in this world is almost equivalent to the fifth level of Zong, and the imperial object is only equivalent to the eighth level. Then I am afraid that the realm of Tianxin is equivalent to the fifth level of Zong, and the realm of Taoism I’m afraid it’s similar to the fourth level.”

Zhou Heng secretly guessed in his heart and compared the divisions of realms. He suddenly felt a little funny, "If this is true, then after taking ten steps through the immortal gate, you should be in the realm of heaven and man. When will heaven and man be able to Immortal and immortal?”

Rumors are just rumors after all.

The catastrophe of decline of heaven and man, which occurs once in five hundred years, clicked.

Later, Zhou Heng did some sorting in the cave, but found nothing of value, so he had to take the puppet out of the cave.

Only then did they discover a cave not far away.

There is nothing magical about the cave. It is just a residence built on the basis of a cave. There are pots and bowls, tables and stools, and stone beds with straw mats spread on them.

Zhou Heng plans to rest here for a few days.

After all, he had just come into possession, and Ye Long's body was resurrected from the dead. It was depleted of energy and blood, had a lot of damage to its internal organs, and had little cultivation, so it was not suitable for long journeys.

It’s better to take good care of your health here now.

So, in the next few days, Zhou Heng lived in this cave, sending puppets out to hunt, bringing back meat to roast and eat, while standing and boxing to warm up his body.

——Although the laws of this world are different, most martial arts are suppressed, especially the martial arts of the middle third rank or even higher, while there are no restrictions on the basic martial arts based on the physical body.

After more than ten days, Zhou Heng finally reconditioned this "corpse" into a healthy ordinary person.

At the same time, his physical strength also recovered to the ninth rank, but it was not possible to go higher. It seems that the physical bodies of people in this world are somewhat different and cannot cultivate internal energy.

Now Zhou Heng's strongest self-protection ability is actually Han Lin, the puppet.

Zhou Heng also tried to practice spells such as fireballs, ice arrows, and lightning. It stands to reason that with his soul realm, it should be easy to perform these spells, but in fact, none of them succeeded.

Although he is now descending with only a wisp of soul thought, if he wants to transform it into the soul power of the control level, it is at least equivalent to fifty Han Lins, which has long met the requirements of these spells for spiritual power, but he just can't perform them.

Zhou Heng is now like a warehouse full of fine metals, but he doesn't know how to make these metals into weapons, so he can only stare blankly.

"It should be related to the visualization method. The cultivators in this world leverage the power of nature, probably not just relying on the soul, the visualization factor should also be very important." Zhou Heng understood something in his heart.

The memory he got from Han Lin was incomplete. He only knew that the cultivation here was mainly based on the visualization method, but he didn't know how to practice the visualization method specifically, nor did he know what kind of changes the visualization method could bring.

He could only guess.

"If according to some information I learned in my previous life, the so-called visualization should be to sit quietly and think, imagine the image of something in your mind, so as to achieve the effect of calming the mind and collecting delusions."

Zhou Heng fell into deep thought, and said to himself: "But this kind of simple imagination cannot be regarded as cultivation, and it is even more impossible to bring extraordinary power. It seems that if you want to obtain the power of this world, you still have to get the real visualization method."

However, in this world, most of the visualization methods are secret teachings of the sects, and casual cultivators also take their visualization methods very seriously and will not easily reveal them. It is extremely difficult to get visualization methods.

Moreover, the status of the cultivators themselves is above that of the country. In order to maintain this superior status, it is even more difficult for the princes and nobles to obtain the visualization method.

This means that with Zhou Heng's current identity as "Ye Long", it is almost impossible to get the visualization method through normal channels.

"Since the normal channels cannot be obtained, we can only take unconventional ways, either secretly find someone to buy it, or directly kill people and rob them." Zhou Heng thought of two ways, but neither is easy.

"However, no matter which way you go, you can't get the visualization method if you stay in the cave all the time. You still need to go out and find a town to inquire about the news first."

He is a man of action. With a thought, he took the puppet Han Lin and left the cave directly.

Before leaving, Zhou Heng erased the traces of his life here, and all the traces along the way were eliminated.

He did not forget that Han Lin had an enemy.

That was a strong man at the peak of the day travel realm, close to the level of the great real person.

——The cultivators in the true form realm will be respected as great real people.

He has not recovered much strength yet, and does not want to attract strong enemies.

…

Three days after Zhou Heng left the cave, a middle-aged man in a bright red robe came here.

He explored around and went to the cave where Zhou Heng lived before. Seeing that there was nothing inside, he frowned. Then he went to the cave that Han Lin used to refine puppets, but still found nothing.

“Haha, it’s interesting. When did Han Lin learn to erase traces and track back?” The red-robed man sneered twice.

Then, he took out a yellow talisman from his arms and blew it gently. The yellow talisman suddenly ignited without fire, and red lines appeared on the ground out of thin air, all spreading in one direction.

“Han Lin, where can you run?!” The red-robed man narrowed his eyes slightly, and ran in the direction of the red line.

At the same time, an illusory fire ignited behind him, and a furious Vajra could be vaguely seen inside, with flames burning all over his body. Then the fire wrapped his whole body and accelerated his speed.

This is the red-robed man’s visualization of the god and Buddha “Furious Flame Vajra”

He can use this to operate his spiritual power, pry the fire energy between heaven and earth, and perform many fire-related magics. Usually, the destructive power is extremely high, and the combat power is also superior in the Sun Tour Realm.

It will only subtly affect the temperament of the cultivators and make them irritable and irritable.

...

Qingxiang Town, this is a small town in the southwest of Liang State, which is named after the abundance of flowers.

This is also the first town Zhou Heng found after leaving the cave.

Now he disguised himself as a man in his forties through some disguise methods, and came here as a wandering doctor, ready to open a clinic.

Han Lin was wrapped up tightly, carrying Zhou Heng's luggage, looking like a servant.

Doctors are welcome everywhere.

Therefore, Zhou Heng rented a small courtyard without much effort, which can be used to open a clinic and also as his residence.

He had thought deeply about this identity.

Firstly, with his spiritual realm, he could basically tell whether a disease was serious or minor at a glance. Secondly, as a doctor, he had contact with a wide range of people, so it was easier for him to get information.

More than ten days have passed, and Zhou Heng's clinic has been running well. Many people even want to learn medicine from him, but there has been no news about the visualization method.

After all, for ordinary people, the cultivators are all immortal masters who are hard to find. They are great figures who are high above. Mortals are not worthy of asking about the immortal masters.

Naturally, it is difficult to gain anything.

These days, Zhou Heng has also tried to visualize with the "Taishang Riding a Bull Picture" opened by the previous golden lucky bag.

But he has never found the right method and it is useless.

Sure enough, simply imagining in the mind does not work.

There is no progress in the visualization method, but there is an unexpected gain in martial arts. Zhou Heng has modified the "Eternal Life Secret" and actually cultivated a very weak innate true qi.

However, this trace of innate true qi is very weak, and it is extremely difficult to even pry the vitality of heaven and earth, let alone use it to perform martial arts or Taoism.

Even so, Zhou Heng was very excited about the practice of true qi.

The long march has finally taken the first step.

But as the research deepened, Zhou Heng discovered that the innate true qi refined in this world essentially still relied on the soul's attraction to the external heaven and earth energy, and even this innate true qi itself was dominated by the power of the soul.

This means that even if the innate true qi is strong enough to pry the heaven and earth energy and control the great power of nature, its essence is still relying on the power of the soul, which is no different from the visualization method, and is even more troublesome.

"The soul power is the main one, which is probably the basic rule of this world." Zhou Heng guessed in his heart, and secretly said: "I still have to continue to look for the visualization method. Well, I can't stop studying the method of strengthening the innate true qi in this world.

"Make preparations for both situations. "…

That evening, the clinic was in the process of proofing.

Zhou Heng was sitting in the small courtyard, thinking about other ways to strengthen his innate true qi in this world.

Suddenly, he heard the sound of knocking on the door.

And it was a little hurried, and the force of the knocking on the door was getting stronger and stronger.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

It almost gave people the feeling that if you don't open the door, I will break it down.

Zhou Heng frowned slightly.

Under the perception of his spiritual sense, he could clearly "see" that the person knocking on the door was a middle-aged man in a bright red robe, with a burly figure, a beard, and looked a little manic.

For this sudden thing, Zhou Heng's eyebrows rose slightly, he stood up and opened the courtyard door, and saw the middle-aged man in the bright red robe.

"Have you seen Han Lin?" The red-robed middle-aged man looked into Zhou Heng's eyes and said, "You'd better answer truthfully. I don't like to hear people lie."

"No. "Zhou Heng said calmly.

"..." The man in the red robe was silent for a moment, then grinned and shook his head, saying, "No, I don't believe it!

"Come out, let me go in and search."
