Chapter 6: Realm of Cultivation
"You asked me who I was at the beginning. If I guessed correctly, your honor should be giving me a clear path. You might as well tell me directly." Shen Ming thought.
"It seems that you still have some brains. I won't beat around the bush with you. Listen clearly. I will only tell you once. If you want to recover your original memories, you must cultivate to the realm of refining objects. Apart from that, there is no other way.
Law!"
The Demon Lord said solemnly, with a solemn expression.
"Refining Object Realm...what kind of realm is that?"
Shen Ming was puzzled. He had just woken up from the ice coffin, as if he had just arrived in this world. He had no idea at all, let alone any level of cultivation.
"If you can open up space, it means you have reached this realm." Demon Lord simply explained.
"Open up space?!" Shen Ming looked surprised.
"Yes, you will understand in the future. What you have to do now is to practice and make yourself stronger."
"Only by becoming stronger can you find the answer. Only by becoming stronger can you gain a foothold in this world. The weak will eat the strong, and the fittest will survive. This is the unchanging law!"
The Demon Lord was like a mentor, teaching Shen Ming, but Shen Ming didn't feel anything was wrong. He always felt that there seemed to be something waiting for him to find in the future.
"I dare to ask, is your Majesty an enemy or a friend?"
"I can't answer your question. It depends on your own thoughts. If you have the same Taoism, you are a friend, and if you have different Taoism, you are an enemy. Whether you and I are enemies or friends, you will know later." Demon Lord said meaningfully.
"That makes sense."
"I haven't asked you yet, what is your name now?"
"Shen Ming." Shen Ming responded softly.
"Shen Ming, that's a good name. We will meet again. Farewell!" The Demon Lord smiled evilly and disappeared. The black spots on Shen Ming's forehead also disappeared.
The next day, the morning light was dim and dewdrops were falling.
After Shen Ming got up and dressed, he walked out of the room. At this time, a gust of cold wind came towards him, making him instantly refreshed. When he saw him coming to the training ground and looking at the disciples doing morning exercises, he couldn't help but recall what the masked man said last night.
words.
"As long as I practice to the realm of refining objects, my memory will be restored. The realm of refining objects has the power to open up space. This shows how terrifying it is. Can I really achieve it?"
Shen Ming began to doubt himself. That should be a state that only gods can reach. Mortals may not be able to reach it in a few lifetimes. Now he doesn't even know what the lowest state is, and he can't feel any power in his body.
How easy is it to succeed in cultivation?
Suddenly, a dignified, generous, pure and beautiful woman came forward. Seeing her holding a sword in her right hand and her left hand on her waist, she asked, "Xiao Ming, are you okay?"
"It's okay. The room is boring. Let's go out for a walk. By the way, senior sister, I want to go to the library to read. You see, I just woke up not long ago and my mind is blank. I just want to know more about the world. Is that okay?" Shen Ming said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll take you there. The library is a place for disciples to increase their knowledge. Why not?"
"I thought there were some taboos. For example, only the elders of the sect or disciples with high cultivation levels can enter."
"Oh, we are a small sect, not a big sect. We don't have so many taboos."
"Ha ha."
Shen Xue spoke softly, glancing around, probably because she was afraid that her father would hear it and be punished for saying that her sect was poor, and she might be the first person.
On the way to the library...
"Sister, what state are you in now?"
"Well...I'm only at the first level of Qi refining."
"Qi refining... Senior sister, besides the Qi refining realm, what other levels of cultivation are there?" Shen Ming asked.
"Well... I only know about two realms, the body refining realm and the qi refining realm. There are nine levels of body refining and seven levels of qi refining. As for the stronger realm, I don't know. My father's realm in the sect is
The highest level is Qi Refining Level 5, Uncle Yao is Level 4, and the other elders seem to be Level 3."
"What is body refining and what is qi refining?"
"Physical training is to strengthen the body. Only by exercising the body well and accumulating quantity to a certain level will a qualitative breakthrough be achieved, which is the state of Qi refining."
"Refining Qi means that you can circulate your Dantian and absorb the profound energy of heaven and earth. With the profound energy, you can practice martial arts. When you reach the fifth level, you will have the ability to ascend slightly."
Shen Ming had some understanding, and Shen Xue continued to popularize science:
"Only when you reach the realm of Qi refining can you embark on the path of cultivation and become a cultivator!" Whenever she talks about cultivators, Shen Xue gets excited and her blood boils.
"Sister, I feel like you yearn for cultivators very much."
"Of course. In this world where the strong are respected, strength is your capital for survival. Only if you are strong enough can you not be bullied, control your own destiny, and speak for the weak, haha."
"I didn't expect Senior Sister to have such lofty ambitions. It seems that I have to learn from Senior Sister." Shen Ming praised and gave her a thumbs up.
"Low-key, low-key, I believe you can become a cultivator, come on Xiao Ming!" Shen Xue said encouragingly.
"Then I accept your words, haha."
…
In a blink of an eye, they arrived at the library.
The Library Pavilion only has one floor and occupies a small area. There are at most two guest rooms, with books on one side and tables and chairs on the other. Many disciples are sitting in there reading.
"The person in charge of the library is Li Hanqing. We all call him Elder Li. I will send you here. I won't go in. I'll be annoyed when I see him."
Shen Xue wrinkled her nose, pouted, and had a bit of a temper in her tone. Shen Ming didn't know the reason, so he smiled lightly and said:
"What's wrong, senior sister? Is he bullying you?"
"How dare he?!" Shen Xue snorted and said domineeringly, "If he bullies me, let's see if my father doesn't bully him!"
"Ha ha."
Shen Xue calmed down her emotions and explained, "Actually, I'm annoyed by his tone of voice when he speaks. He is always arrogant, as if he is superior to others, which makes my ears uncomfortable."
"So that's it."
"Okay, you go in, I'm leaving."
"See you later, senior sister."
"Uh-huh."
After saying that, Shen Xue turned and left.
Afterwards, Shen Ming walked into the library. A middle-aged man saw him and immediately came forward to greet him. Judging from his appearance, he should be about the same age as Shen Zhen. The years have drawn wrinkles on his forehead, and his black hair is mixed with
With a little white hair, he is the Elder Li mentioned by Shen Xue.
"Your Excellency, you have come to the Library Pavilion. What do you want me to do?"
Li Hanqing asked politely. The masked man had saved the sect leader twice, and the masked man had a close relationship with Shen Ming. Shen Ming was undoubtedly a distinguished guest of the Nirvana Sect.
Moreover, Shen Ming joined their sect again, which could be regarded as establishing a relationship with the masked man. How could they neglect it?
"Hello, Elder, I wonder if there are any history books and famous deeds about this continent here?"
"There is a copy, on the innermost shelf."
"Are there any secrets on the exercises?"
Li Hanqing looked over Shen Ming, his eyes showing a hint of contempt and his tone a bit disdainful.
"Your Excellency must not have reached the state of Qi refining. It is still too early to practice Qigong. You might as well read a book on meditation and train your mind first." Li Hanqing said with a smile.
"Sure enough." Shen Ming laughed secretly.
"Elder, you just need to tell me whether you have it or not. If so, where to put it? Please tell me, thank you."
"This... ahem, there is one. It's also on the innermost shelf, on the upper level of the history books."
Li Hanqing replied respectfully, but in fact he was full of disdain in his heart. A defenseless boy still wanted to practice Kung Fu. He really didn't know how much he weighed.
