Prehistoric: Starting from the Mediation of Creation

The words of Hunyuan Golden Bowl then entered Luo Zu's mind.

"Boy, your chance to reach the second stage of the Golden Immortal has been arranged for you."

Yuan was thinking about this matter. The second step of the Golden Immortal was to transform the spirit with "Qi". When the Five Qis were perfected, the Dao Fruit would carry more power of the Dao, and the Dao Treasure Tree would take root in more Daos, then it could begin to breed new "Gods".

This "god" is both independent and indivisible, but it cannot be said to be a second personality. It should be closer to a second spirit (soul).

However, this primordial spirit is not constructed with spirit, Taoism, or the Great Dao, but is created purely from the five elements.

After this second soul is refined, it is necessary to cultivate something similar to the true spirit from it, otherwise it will not be able to carry the opposite path.

But how to transform spirit with "qi"? This is a big problem.

"Thank you, senior." Luo Zu said gratefully.

"Fellow Daoist Wu Shi, the one who gave you the benefit is the senior, and you are really a greedy kid." Hunyuan Jindou chattered.

Luo Zu was also happy to endure His noise. After all, He had received benefits from Him, so what did this little noise matter?

"Boy, come with me." Hunyuan Jindou urged.

Transforming spirit with "Qi" is certainly not an easy task, and it has only been a short time since Luo Zu perfected the Five Qis Converging to the Origin. To take this step, one needs some foundation, at least to stand firmly in the realm of Five Qis Converging to the Origin.

But judging from Hunyuan Jindou's intention, He can help Luo Zu leap to this level without forcing things.

Thinking of this, Luo Zu's mind was sent into an unknown world.

He could feel that he had arrived in the West in some past time and space, but it seemed very far away from the present.

And as far as the eye can see, there are green mountains, green waters, red flowers and purple leaves, and the spiritual energy is as abundant as colorful glass. Although the road is not as complicated as the "present", it is also splendid and easier to sense.

What kind of western world is this? There is not even a trace of barrenness. It is even better than the environment around Mount Buzhou "now".

Before Luo Zu could study it carefully, he suddenly heard a light shout calling out.

"I am Luohou, and now I open the way to the great wilderness and teach the Dharma to all living beings."

What era is this? Luo Zu now has a clear idea in his mind.

It’s just that the legends of this era have never been passed down to the “present”. Even though Luo Zu inquired about the past history of the prehistoric world in Kunlun Mountain, and although the struggle for supremacy among the three tribes of dragon, phoenix and unicorn existed, and the era of the Three Emperors also existed, this Rāhu never appeared.

Now, he was sent to this era.

Luo Zu couldn't help but wonder whether he really got any benefit or was being used as a gun again.

Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened afterwards. Only a series of phantoms appeared before his eyes. A chaotic and hazy figure accompanied by the sound of preaching fell into his eyes.

As he listened, Luo Zu suddenly realized the secret of transforming the spirit with "Qi".

"Is this the way to open the way?" Luo Zu's heart moved.

Therefore, Luohou is also the pioneer of Honghuang's current realm of cultivation, but because of certain things he is not visible in the "present".

This Rāhu then began to practice in the realm of Golden Immortal.

However, he only listened to the second step of the Golden Immortal. When he wanted to hear about the subsequent Golden Immortal realms, he felt blurred and his mind returned to the "present".

Time had not changed or moved, and neither Duobao Taoist nor Nan Ji Xian Weng noticed that he had traveled to the distant past.

But Luo Zu now has a direction for the second step of the Golden Immortal. All he needs to do next is let things take their course. After the passage of time, he will gradually create his second soul.

The Taoist method explained by Luohou is the so-called "Three Corpses Method". Yes, beheading the Three Corpses is not the method of becoming a saint in prehistoric novels and storybooks, but the predecessor of the second step of the Golden Immortal Realm.

The five energies are sought externally and then internally. The Three Corpses Method only seeks internally and not externally. Luo Zu has already sought externally, and the next step is to seek internally to cultivate the second soul.

So this Three Corpses Technique was quite useful when it came to him.

The Three Corpses Method is to cut off one's own desires, and then gradually develop a spirit and soul from them, from which a second true spirit is born, and finally the true spirit becomes another fruit of the Tao.

However, there are still some key points missing in the Three Corpses Technique. It is necessary to harm the heaven and earth in order to replenish oneself and replenish the second divine soul and the second true spirit.

As for how to harm heaven and life, it means harming living beings and absorbing spirituality. This is exactly what can be filled with the Five Qis Returning to Origin.

Perhaps the Five Qis Returning to Origin was evolved from the Three Corpses Method, and was transformed from these methods that are harmful to heaven and earth and endanger life.

The Five Qis Returning to the Origin will be much gentler. Starting from one's own body, one can sense the Qi of the five elements of the five directions between heaven and earth. Even if one has not yet comprehended the Great Dao of the Five Elements, one can still understand the traces of good fortune in them, and with the help of the power of heaven and earth, one can refine a second Yuanshen.

The more he thought about it, the more Luo Zu understood it. Perhaps in that thought, the first step to becoming a Golden Immortal was not the Five Qis Returning to Origin, but the Three Corpses Method, which was to kill the three corpses and then directly harm the heavens and the earth, thereby achieving the second divine soul.

Luohou must have had a very good reputation in those years, but later on, because the heaven and earth were severely damaged, he suffered a disaster...

Of course, this was just Luo Zu's own speculation. He didn't know why Luohou did not leave his name. Perhaps even he who had attained Daluo would not be able to know. After all, only projections of the long river of time remained now, and the real long river of time had been hidden. Only Daluo Wuji could verify this history.

But it is more likely that nothing can be found and this period of time was cut off by some important figure.

After thinking it over, Luo Zu also realized that Hunyuan Golden Bowl really gave him an opportunity, but it was not given to him directly. He still had to comprehend it on his own. He could not use the Three Corpses Method directly, but had to deduce from it a method of cultivating the second soul that was suitable for him.

But who ordered the Hunyuan Golden Bowl to send this opportunity? The Shangqing Saint? Or other saints? Or the Taoist Patriarch?

Luo Zu now dares to think about the existence of Dao Zu. After all, he has reached the level of Golden Immortal and should know about Ancestor Hongjun. In fact, there are legends about him everywhere in the prehistoric world. It’s just that he was just a small figure in the past and was not worthy of knowing. Now he has a little confidence to explore his existence.

"Senior Hunyuan Jindou, I wonder if there is any explanation for the Three Corpses Technique?" Thinking of this, Luo Zu asked Hunyuan Jindou directly.

Hunyuan Jindou did not hide anything and answered directly: "The Three Corpses Method was created by Luohou Daozu. Although it is an unorthodox method, it can be found in many cultivation methods nowadays. It is enough for you to use it to comprehend the second step of the Golden Immortal."

"I wonder where Taoist Master Luohou is now?" Luo Zu asked again.

"Taoist Ancestor Luohou founded a heterodox path and did not follow the righteous path. He lost the debate with Taoist Ancestor Hongjun on Taoism, which later sparked a dispute and destroyed an era. Finally, Taoist Ancestor Hongjun sealed him into the chaos in that destroyed era and has disappeared without a trace." Hunyuan Jindou explained.

"There is such an old story in the ancient times?" Luo Zu was slightly surprised.

Hunyuan Jindou still did not hide anything and continued to reveal: "I had forgotten this period of time, but with the guidance of the master, I found this history from my past memories. Now I will repay you for your kindness."

"I see. Thank you for your trouble, Senior Hunyuan Jindou." Luo Zu said gratefully.

But he still felt puzzled. The Hunyuan Golden Bowl was an innate spiritual treasure, which was refined by the Shangqing Saint using the methods of the creation of heaven and earth and the end of heaven and earth. It could be said to span the past and the future. So even though it was refined by the Shangqing Saint when he certified the Hunyuan, its existence should have spanned the past and the future of the prehistoric world. Especially with the Shangqing Saint promoting it, otherwise it would not have been able to refine these thirty-six spiritual bans.

Therefore, it is somewhat strange that He said that He obtained this history from His past memories and used it to allow Luo Zu to benefit from it.

Thinking about the past history of Honghuang that had been arbitrarily modified by people, Luo Zu couldn't help but wonder whether the history he was hearing now about Luohou Daozu was fabricated, specially made up for him.

Moreover, he had no way to find anyone to verify it. After all, Hunyuan Jindou said that this period of history had been intercepted by Hongjun Daozu. Among the Taoist friends Luo Zu knew now, only Nan Ji Xianweng had been practicing Taoism since the period of the three tribes' struggle for hegemony, and the rest of the Taoist friends were "younger generations".

That's not right, he also knew the Red Cloud Ancestor, Zhen Yuanzi...

However, there was a patch in Hunyuan Jindou's words, which was that he had forgotten this history, and only "remembered" it after being enlightened by Saint Shangqing.

"Forget it, just practice hard. When you reach a certain level, these things won't matter anymore. All your problems will be solved."

After comforting himself in this way, he settled this memory clearly in the world of Yuanshen and no longer pondered on it in the prehistoric world.

Afterwards, he said goodbye to Duobao Taoist and Nan Ji Xian Weng and returned to his cave to meditate in seclusion.

Cultivation is a hard job. It is troublesome when everything goes smoothly, but it is difficult at every step. It is troublesome everywhere and nothing is accomplished. In the end, it is like trying to catch the moon in a well. All your cultivation is like a dream bubble.

Therefore, Luo Zu always felt that cultivation still requires cultivating the mind.

When practicing, it is best to first clear your mind of all distracting thoughts and focus on the Tao. Only in this way can you succeed in your practice.

At other times, there are many distracting thoughts, and I just let them grow, which can be considered a relaxation besides practicing.

For this reason, the Taishang Pure Heart Sutra given by the Saint Taiqing is really useful. Every time I use it, my mind feels a lot more relaxed. It is truly the best method of spiritual practice.

Luo Zu sealed the cave where he was in seclusion, and first asked Luo Xiang's divine clone to notify him directly if there was any situation. If the situation was urgent and would endanger the entire tribe, he would directly use the faith that the human race had deposited in the Fire Cloud Cave for many years to push him quickly into the realm of true god. This realm could directly fight against the Golden Immortal and help him delay a lot of time.

If the situation was more urgent, it would be almost like the powerful demons would lose all their shame and come to destroy the cavemen personally. At this time, everyone would lie down, and Luo Zu would directly use the power of the heart sea and the heavens to take them all in.

If he is too late to collect them, there is no need to panic. Luo Zu can still collect their souls into the sea of ​​​​heart and heaven, and then they will be reincarnated in it and become lively children again.

After explaining all this, Luo Zu practiced the Taishang Pure Heart Sutra to put aside all distracting thoughts and purify his mind.
