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 spiritual 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 can a mortal have such a powerful soul??" Han Lin was in disbelief, and 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".

He advocates using the "contemplation method" to refine the soul and condense the soul into a physical 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 be immortal.

This Han Lin has reached the realm of animal 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 this part of 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 estimation, 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 to possess him, 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 martial arts of the third and higher grades. However, there are no restrictions on basic martial arts based on the physical body.

More than ten days passed like this, and Zhou Heng finally reconditioned this "dead corpse" into a healthy ordinary person.

At the same time, his body's strength has also returned to the ninth level, but it cannot go up any higher. It seems that there is some difference in the human body in this world, and it is impossible to develop inner energy.

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

Zhou Heng also tried to practice spells such as fireballs, ice arrows, and lightning. Logically speaking, with his spiritual realm, it should be easy to perform these spells, but in fact, none of them were successful.

Although what comes to him now is just a ray of soul thought, if he wants to transform it into the soul power of the imperial object level, it is equivalent to at least fifty Han Lin. It has already met the spiritual power requirements of these spells, but it is unable to be used.

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

"It should be related to the visualization method. The monks in this world may not only rely on their souls to leverage the power of nature, but the factors of visualization method should also be important." Zhou Heng had a clear understanding in his heart.

The memories he got from Han Lin were incomplete. He only knew that the practice here was mainly based on visualization methods, but he did not know how to practice visualization methods specifically, nor did he know what kind of changes it could bring about.

Can only rely on guessing.

"According to some information I learned in my previous life, the so-called visualization should be to sit quietly and contemplate, imagining the image of something in your mind, so as to achieve the effect of calming the mind and controlling delusions."

Zhou Heng fell into deep thought and thought to himself: "But this kind of simple imagination cannot be regarded as practice, and it is even less likely to bring extraordinary power. It seems that if you want to gain the power of this world, you still have to acquire real visualization methods. "

However, in this world, most of the contemplation methods are secretly taught by sects, and casual practitioners also take their own contemplation methods very seriously and will not reveal them easily. It is extremely difficult to obtain the contemplation methods.

Moreover, the status of monks is superior to that of the country. In order to maintain this superior status, it is more difficult for princes and nobles to obtain ideas.

This means that with Zhou Heng's current status as "Ye Long", it is almost impossible to obtain the concept of law through normal channels.

"Since we can't get it through normal channels, we can only take unconventional ways, either secretly looking for someone to buy it, or directly killing people to get the goods." Zhou Heng thought of two ways, but neither was easy.

"However, no matter which way you take, you won't be able to get the contemplation method by staying in the cave. You still need to go out and find a town first to get information."

He was a man of action, and with his thoughts in mind, he left the cave directly with the puppet Han Lin.

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

He didn't forget that Han Lin had another enemy.

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

——The monks in the True Form Realm will be respected as Da Zhenren.

He hasn't recovered much strength yet and doesn't want to attract powerful enemies.

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

He explored around, first going to the cave where Zhou Heng lived before, and frowning when he saw that there was nothing inside. Then he went to the cave that Han Lin had used to refine puppets, but still couldn't find anything. What.

"Haha, it's interesting. When did Han Lin learn to erase traces and track them?" The man in red robe sneered twice.

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

"Han Lin, let me see where else can you run?!" The man in red robe narrowed his eyes slightly, filled with murderous intent, and ran in the direction of the red line.

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

This is the man in red robe visualizing the God Buddha "Vajra of Raging Flames".

He can use this to mobilize his spiritual power, leverage the fire element energy between heaven and earth, and perform many fire-attribute spells, which are usually very destructive and his combat power is also superior in the Sun Traveling Realm.

It will only subtly affect the monk's temperament, making him irritable and irritable.

Qingxiang Town, a small town in the southwest of Liang State, is rich in flowers, hence its name.

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

Now he used some disguise methods to disguise himself as a man in his forties, and came here as a wandering doctor, preparing to open a medical clinic.

Han Lin's whole body was wrapped tightly and he was carried by Zhou Heng to salute, looking like a servant.

Doctors and doctors are welcome wherever they are.

Therefore, Zhou Heng rented a small courtyard without much effort to open a medical clinic and also serve as his own residence.

He had thought carefully about this identity.

Firstly, with his level of spiritual realm, he can basically tell major and minor illnesses at a glance. Secondly, as a doctor, he has contact with a wider range of people, so it is easier to get information.

More than ten days have passed, and Zhou Heng's clinic has been running well. Many people even come 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, not to mention using it to perform martial arts or Taoism.

Even so, the cultivation of true qi still makes Zhou Heng extremely excited.

The long march finally took 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."
