571 Ji's Development, Human Tribulation
Although Guangchengzi became the teacher of Huangdi, he did not directly teach the methods of practice. According to the teachings of the expounding teachings, the expounding of the principles of nature is to understand and innovate by oneself. The so-called master leads his way to practice alone.
Therefore, in the next three hundred years, Guangchengzi did not teach Huangdi to practice, but instead talked about some common sense of practice, the prehistoric pattern and history, and listened to Huangdi one by one, which broadened Huangdi's horizon and laid the foundation for him to achieve the great achievements of the emperor in the future.
After teaching Huangdi for three hundred years, Guangchengzi began to go to seclusion and practice, allowing Huangdi to develop himself.
Huangdi led the Xuanyuan clan to continue to develop. Finally, when Huangdi was one thousand years old, the Xuanyuan clan finally expanded its clan power to the Jishui River Basin.
Jishui is a tributary of Luoshui, a tributary of the Yellow River. The Jishui River Basin is the sphere of influence assigned by major human families to the Ji family of the imperial clan.
The rules of the Ji surname are that only the core clans can stay near Jishui, and other clans stay outside. The farther away from Jishui, the lower the status.
The Youxiong clan and others at that time were just small branches of the Ji surname, and were excluded by those big clans to the edge of the Ji Shui River Basin. Now the power of the Xuanyuan clan has developed to the edge of the Ji Shui River, which shows that the Xuanyuan clan is already in the middle of the Ji surname, both in terms of strength and status.
The reputation of Huangdi also entered the eyes of the elders of the Ji clan.
The Ji family is now in awkward status. Although it is listed as one of the twelve major families of the human race, the leader of the True Immortal and the strong ones in the clan fell in a treasure hunting war not long ago. Now there is not even a true immortal. Even the elders of the Transformation Realm are only three. In terms of strength, the Ji family is now not as good as the third-rate family of the human race.
Because the Ji family's strong men died, many second- and third-rate families of human race began to erode the Jishui River Basin. Now the territory controlled by the Ji family is only one-quarter of the entire Jishui River Basin.
At this difficult moment, Huangdi cultivated to the middle level of the divine realm at a age of a thousand years. He was considered a master in the entire Ji family. In addition, he was valued by the three clan leaders and wanted to cultivate vigorously. This is also the reason why the Xuanyuan clan was able to squeeze from the marginal clan into the core clan of Jishui.
You should know that the older the family, the more important it is to pay for bloodline and illegitimate children. If there are those powerful families, even if Huangdi’s potential is high and he has not cultivated to a true immortal, he will not have the idea of improving his internal status in the family.
Huangdi led the Xuanyuan clan into the core clan. Not only did it slow down, but it accelerated. After another thousand years, Huangdi broke through the divine realm and became a cultivator in the early stage of the realm of transformation.
At this time, only one of the three elders of the Ji family was left, and the other two had already fallen into the Nine Nine Heavenly Tribulation. The only clan leader announced that Huangdi would be appointed as the contemporary clan leader of the Ji family.
Huangdi, who became the clan leader, began to unite the forces of various clans of the Ji surname.
Huangdi broke his blood ties and divided his territory into territory, taking one husband and wife as a family, eight families as a well, three wells as a neighbor, three neighbors as a friend, three friends as a mile, five miles as a town, ten cities as a capital, ten cities as a division, ten divisions as a state, ten tribes as a clan, ten tribes as a clan, and ten tribes as a clan, and millions of Ji tribes merged into one state.
After integrating the Ji family, after more than three hundred years of running-in, the internal friction between the branches of the Ji surname was reduced to the limit, and the family power began to develop in an expanding manner, and soon drove away the foreign tribes who invaded the Jishui River Basin and completely occupied the Jishui River Basin.
After hundreds of years, the Ji family grew from one state to nine states, and their tribe members lost more than ten million.
At this time, the Ji family's power had developed to a bottleneck. If it wanted to develop, it was necessary to leave the Jishui River Basin and compete with other human families for territory.
But now the Ji family of the human race is a third-rate family with strong people of the true immortal level. With the Ji family's current strength, they will definitely be beaten to death.
In fact, as a tributary of the Yellow River tributary, Jishui covers an area of hundreds of peaks, and is rich in resources. If it were not for the status of the twelve major families of the Ji family, such a good spiritual land would not be divided into.
After the natural disaster, the vast land was vast and sparsely populated, and the number of spiritual land was larger than that of the cultivators. Some of the major families of the human race expanded their territory and were unwilling to consume excessively in Jishui and Ji. Therefore, the Ji family rose slightly, and the families retreated.
However, if Ji's family could not take advantage of this period of time to recuperate and turn into a cocoon into a butterfly, and wait for the major families of the human race to occupy all the spiritual land in the Yellow River Basin, they would sooner or later expand into Ji's Ji's Ji's water. At that time, if Ji's family did not have a strong man of Taiyi level, they would not be able to defend Ji's water at all.
Therefore, whether the Ji family can defend their family territory and grow and grow depends on whether Huangdi can be promoted to Zhenxian and Taiyi.
Huangdi also knew this, so he handed over the common affairs to his clan members, and he went into seclusion in Xuanyuan Hill, preparing to be promoted to a true immortal.
Just as Huangdi was ready for promotion, Guangchengzi came out of seclusion and summoned Huangdi again, preventing Huangdi from breaking through.
Huangdi was very surprised. The human race had ninety-nine heavenly tribulations, just like a sword hanging above its head. If it could not become a true immortal before the fifth ninety-nine heavenly tribulation, it would basically be inevitable to die. Huangdi's qualifications were not the same. He had already cultivated to the peak of the transformation realm after three thousand years. He was about to break through the realm in one fell swoop, but he did not expect to be stopped by his master Guang Chengzi.
When Guangchengzi saw Huangdi's doubts, he said, "Before the human race monks are five thousand years old, that is, if they do not become true immortals after the 49th thunder tribulation, they will fall under the 59th thunder tribulation. This is a false legend."
"Ah?" Huangdi was shocked when he heard this. The common sense that the human race had passed on for thousands of tribulations was wrong. If Guang Chengzi had not been his master and a saint disciple, Huangdi would have doubted whether Guang Chengzi had ulterior motives.
Seeing Huangdi, Guangchengzi was half-believing and half-doubted, and explained: "God has the virtue of being alive. The purpose of the Nine Nine Heavenly Tribulation is to urge the human cultivators to practice hard, not to destroy the human cultivators. It is precisely because the Nine Nine Heavenly Tribulation is hanging above the head that the elite human cultivators can cultivate to become immortals before the age of 5,000. Other races do not have this pressure. Look at which race can cultivate to become true immortals before the age of 5,000? Even the three saints of the gods have not yet grown up at the age of 5,000?"
Guangchengzi said: "Since the purpose of the Nine Nine Heavenly Tribulation is to urge the human cultivators, it will naturally not be a dead end. As long as the human cultivators are strong enough to survive the fifth Nine Nine Heavenly Tribulation, it doesn't matter even if they don't become true immortals."
"Not to mention how to resist the power of the fifth heavenly tribulation with the strength of the Mahayana monk, I just want to say that I can break through the true immortals, why not break through?" Huangdi said: "The disciples have accumulated enough now and are fully confident that they can become true immortals."
"Are you joking?" Guangchengzi said: "If you don't talk about your master, Saint Yuanshi, just say that you are a teacher. When you were born, the magic power contained in your divine body was more than three times that of your current one. Do you tell me that you have accumulated enough?"
Guangcheng's words were also a deceptive act of Huangdi's ignorance. Guangchengzi was the first wisp of the emperor's energy transformed between heaven and earth when Yuanshi was promoted to the post-natal Hunyuan. His foundation was far inferior to the Jade Cauldron, even the Three Pure Ones were far inferior to the Three Pure Ones.
"The master is the god of the gods, how can the disciples compare with?" Huangdi said hurriedly.
"If you have this mentality, you will be a disciple for nothing for your master." Guangchengzi said angrily.
"Master, please calm down." Huangdi didn't know why Guang Chengzi was angry and quickly apologized.
"Practitioners should move forward bravely and be fearless. If you feel that you are not as good as others, how can you surpass others in the end?" Guangchengzi said: "I accept you as a disciple because I hope you can surpass your master and even your master. This is the meaning of the disciples of the Apostles of the Cult."
"Disciple understand." Huangdi said seriously: "Then please ask the master to solve the problem for the disciple, why not break through to the true immortal now."
"Everything in the world is balanced. If there is righteousness, there will be demons, and if there is yin, there will be yang." Guangchengzi said: "Only the human race has the disaster of the ninety-nine heavenly tribulation, so only the human race can enjoy the blessings of the Taoist heavenly tribulation."
"The blessing of the heavenly tribulation." Huangdi said strangely, and was surprised: The heavenly tribulation is actually a blessing, which is really strange.
"People in the world only know how terrible the heavenly tribulation is, but who knows that the heavenly tribulation is the power of the heavenly deeds and the pure heavenly deeds to cleanse the body and mind of the cultivator. Any heavenly tribulation that has the effect of Yijing to cut off the marrow and dies from the heavenly tribulation is actually not lucky enough. If you die in the process of Yijing to cut off the marrow, you can survive the heavenly tribulation, whether it is the heart of Tao or the roots and bones, you will be reborn and transformed. In the future, practice will be twice the result with half the effort. Why can the weak human race become a true immortal before the age of five thousand years? It is because the previous few heavenly tribulations have improved their own roots and bones qualifications." Guangchengzi said: "In addition to the human race, that race has this blessing to obtain the heavenly deeds to help transform? And it is once every thousand years."
"There is no heavenly tribulation after the true immortal." Huangdi's eyes lit up: "So, if you can experience the heavenly tribulation several times before becoming a true immortal, your practice after the true immortal will be smoother."
"Yes, the more times the heavenly tribulations you experience, the stronger the roots and bones will be." Guangchengzi said: "The most difficult thing for the human race is to experience the fourth heavenly tribulation. As long as you pass the 49th thunder tribulation, almost everyone can become an immortal. Therefore, it is said that the 49th thunder tribulation of the human race is a hurdle. If you pass the 49th thunder tribulation, you can become an immortal. If you are not lucky and cannot become an immortal even after the 49th thunder tribulation, you will definitely die and be under the fifth heavenly tribulation. Therefore, it is said that if you do not become an immortal, your life span is 5,000. But in fact, the human race who has become an immortal after the 49th heavenly tribulation is only a scattered immortal. At most, you can only cultivate to the Taiyi realm at most, and it is difficult to become a great way. The so-called Taiyi scattered number is; if you can survive the fifth 99th heavenly tribulation and become a true immortal, you will be a celestial immortal at least in the future. If you can survive the six heavenly tribulation and become a true immortal, you can become a golden immortal, and the great way is expected."
"Is there anyone like this in the human race?" Huangdi said in confusion.
"Why didn't there?" Guangchengzi said: "In the Academic Sect, there are five masters from your human race, named Cihang, Samantabhadra, Manjushri, Taoxing and Qingxu. These five masters are all Taiyi Jinxian who have experienced seven or eight heavenly tribulations. They can at any time achieve Daluo, but they don't want to achieve enlightenment too early, and they are all accumulating now."
"It's all Taiyi realm and is still accumulating." Huangdi exclaimed.
"Cultivation is like building a building. Every realm is laying the foundation for the next realm. The more powerful the accumulation, the higher the future achievements will be." Guangchengzi said: "Only ignorant and shallow people will seek to be fast and seek to reach the sky in one step, but in the end, they can only be unstable in the Taoist foundation and regret it for life."
"That is why the ancestor Zhenyuanzi created the way to reincarnate the earthly immortals and won them the opportunity to do it again." Huangdi thought of a peerless strong man named Zhenyuanzi, who Guangchengzi once introduced.
"Learn from one example, the child can teach you." Guangchengzi said.
"Disciples should also learn from the five uncles." Huangdi said.
"They are worthy of your learning, but they should not be your ultimate goal." Guangchengzi said: "The body of the golden immortal is also different. There was once a person who survived nine heavenly tribulations and created the strongest body of the golden immortal."
Yi Shigong asked: Who is this person who survived the nine heavenly tribulations? The answer is revealed in the next chapter.
