Chapter 392: Chapter 259: Five Secrets of the Physical Body, Not a Crossing? (Asking for Monthly Tickets, Subscriptions!)

The path of cultivation is, after all, a road to sublimation and transcendence.

Even the predictive prowess of beings like Dugu Bo in their past lives is far inferior to his intellectual might.

This is the metamorphosis that comes with elevating one’s life level, and the sublimation and transcendence it brings about.

If one cannot achieve this, how can great cultivators comprehend rules, laws, let alone the Three Thousand Great Dao.

Any type of rule contains massive amounts of information, infinite information.

A seemingly simple rule like the Five Elements represents the essence of all things in the universe.

Be it on the macroscopic or the microscopic level, it contains a wealth of information.

Jiang Yuan took a small step forward every so often.

Each small step signified that he had finished reading a batch of books.

The books he had finished reading all returned to their original places.

In the blink of an eye.

Seven days later.

Jiang Yuan stopped at the corner of the first floor and slowly opened his eyes.

He massaged his forehead, then exhale a sigh of exasperation.

“It wasn’t easy! I’ve finally read all these books.”

He murmured to himself.

Only at this moment.

Did he realize how remarkable his Eldest Senior Brother was.

It’s simply incredible for one person to open up such a large domain of Sacred Land in one’s lifetime.

The vast majority of Sacred Lands in the world have a deep-rooted history and abundant resources.

Over the years, it can be said that the human race’s influence in the Three Domains extends to every corner.

Despite this, his Eldest Senior Brother, the Holy Master Bei Heng, managed to establish a large domain of Sacred Land amidst the encirclement of many forces.

During this time, he inevitably would have had conflicts with some top-tier forces.

The Dao of cultivation has wealth, companionship, techniques, and territory.

The territory covered by a single Sacred Land acts as both wealth and territory.

To establish a Sacred Land, one also needs techniques and companionship.

The techniques refer to the cultivation methods that directly point to the Great Dao!

Companionship refers to like-minded Daoists Friends, it could also be Dao Companions, as well as the protection and guidance from mentors.

To be a domain of Sacred Land, these four elements need to be embraced at the same time.

Only then can it be considered a Sacred Land in the eyes of cultivators, and deserving of the title ‘Sacred Land’!

This just goes to show how remarkable Bei Heng is in establishing such a vast Sacred Land on his own.

Apart from this, the doubts in Jiang Yuan’s heart were not resolved by these records in the books, instead, it raised new doubts in him.

The origins of the ‘Sky-Sealing’ are still unknown to this day.

It’s known that the incident occurred suddenly, and without warning, the heavenly gates linking the upper and lower realms were closed.

With the closure of the heavenly gate, the upper and lower realms were separated, and humans and immortals were segregated.

The lower realm belongs to human and demon paths, and the upper realm to the Immortal Dao.

Since then, there has been no interaction between the two domains.

The closure of the heavenly gate also led to a scarcity of original resources of heaven and earth, making cultivation even more difficult than it was in ancient times.

Enlightenment is more difficult!

Achieving Dao is more difficult!

Without the tribulation of heavenly lightning, without the refining of passing the heavenly lightning, without the reward of original source of heaven and earth after passing the tribulation, the difficulty of reaching the pinnacle of the human path is several times harder.

As for information related to the era, it is even less detailed, even in those few ancient books.

The records of it are also limited.

All Jiang Yuan knows is that, prior to this era, several eras existed.

There was an era where gods and demons dominated the universe, each of them capable of plucking stars and seizing moons with ease, the strongest among them could even obliterate a region of the star realm.

There was an era where cultivators were supreme, lived long, and a Dao Master ruled a Great Dao, with each Great Dao existing under the control of only one Dao Master.

Three Thousand Great Dao, Three Thousand Dao Masters.

As long as the Great Dao exists, the Dao Masters will not perish!

There was an era where star warships cruised across the cosmos, with cultivators physically traveling through the starry sky, and traces of human activity were found everywhere.

There was also an era where humans did not exist, myriad beasts roared, and ancient godlike images ruled over celestial bodies.

There was also an era, where a three-legged golden crow ruled over the heavens, commanding unrivaled authority in the heavenly court.

Of all these, the accounts of the last era were the most extensive.

That was a splendid era, the Daoist Ancestor rode upon an ox and journeyed along the ancient road of the starry sky, setting west.

A teacher and his three disciples traversed various star realms along this ancient star path, going to the great world in the west to obtain the true scriptures.

…

As Jiang Yuan recalled these records of past eras from the ancient books, his heart was still filled with astonishment.

Because these records about the eras have some similarities with the myths and legends in his previous life.

Could there be some unknown connection between them?

He murmured to himself in secret.

About whether he existed in the same universe as his previous life.

He felt somewhat confused in his heart, and some speculation emerged.

Perhaps I am myself regardless of whether it is my past life or this life.

Otherwise it would be impossible to explain why the name and appearance are exactly the same.

Perhaps I and my past life are just different in terms of time dimensions.

If that’s the case, did I really travel through time?

Jiang Yuan questioned himself in his heart.

He pondered for a long time before massaging his forehead.

“Forget it, I won’t think about it anymore! That kind of stuff, even if I think till my head breaks, I wouldn’t be able to figure it out!”

Feeling a sting between his brows, Jiang Yuan suddenly thought of Shu Xiaoxiao.

It would be great if someone could give him a massage to soothe his mind when it was overtaxed like this.

“I wonder where she has gone off to now,” murmured Jiang Yuan silently to himself.

At this time, he could sense that Birdy Huang was not in Heavenly Origin City but was in a place far away from it.

As Jiang Yuan eased his headache by massaging his own forehead, he moved towards the second floor of the library.

He had read all the books on the first floor, so only the second floor and above would hold any allure for him.
