Chapter 2233 Tempering the Mind, Cultivating the Dao Seed
Chen Xuan had no intention of leaving at this moment.
Today, Tianyuan Valley is fraught with danger.
As long as I dare to show myself in Tianyuan Valley, it's only a matter of time before the Xuan Yin Old Demon's divided soul finds me.
At that point, whether I can even get out alive will be a question.
It would be better to stay here and wait for the Myriad Immortals Map Secret Realm trip to end.
At that time, he will be directly teleported away by the terrifying power of the rules within the Myriad Immortals Map Secret Realm.
This saves a lot of trouble.
Thinking of this, Chen Xuan felt much more at ease.
With a flick of his wrist, a storage bag appeared in his hand in a flash.
It was the storage bag of the powerful cultivator at the late-stage Great Perfection of the Celestial Immortal realm that he had killed not long ago at the Sanzang Stone Tablet.
"This old bastard, used as a pawn by Huo Lingyan, actually dares to provoke me? Heh, he deserves to die!"
"However, the fact that he could appear near the Sanzang Stele shows he's quite capable. I just wonder what's in his storage bag!"
Chen Xuan looked curious.
As he spoke, he swiftly poured a stream of pure immortal energy into the old man's storage bag.
Wow!
The items in the storage bag fell to the ground at that moment.
Chen Xuan glanced at these things and immediately looked disgusted.
To my surprise, the contents of this storage bag were of questionable quality.
Among them, the most powerful immortal artifact is only a low-grade supreme immortal artifact.
As for the pills, they were only of the lower grade of the Dao level.
If it weren't for the ten million mid-grade immortal stones he still had, Chen Xuan would have felt that he had really suffered a great loss by attacking the old man.
"So poor!"
After Chen Xuan made a sarcastic remark.
After collecting all the immortal stones, he threw all the other items into a storage bag specifically for miscellaneous items, intending to find a place to sell them.
After dealing with this matter, Chen Xuan immediately calmed down and seriously considered his next cultivation plan.
"My cultivation level has only recently reached the late stage of Celestial Immortal. Further advancement would be extremely difficult!"
"However, daily meditation practice is naturally indispensable!"
"Furthermore, the Dragon-Seeking Sword is only at the level of a mid-grade supreme immortal artifact. Its power is not very strong when used to unleash the Sword Shadow Flying Sand Formation!"
"However, I don't have any rare and precious materials that can help enhance the power of the Dragon-Seeking Sword!"
"If that's the case, I might as well take this opportunity to quickly cultivate the Sword Shadow Flying Sand Formation. If I can cultivate the Sword Shadow Flying Sand Formation to its perfect state, its power will definitely increase significantly!"
"Furthermore, I must also seize the time to cultivate my mental state and comprehend the great principles of heaven and earth!"
"I absolutely dare not neglect these matters!"
After carefully arranging his next cultivation plan, Chen Xuan began to get busy.
Wow!
With a thought, Chen Xuan immediately began to activate the Dragon-Seeking Sword and cultivate the Sword Shadow Flying Sand Formation.
Before long, under Chen Xuan's control, the sword shadows of the Dragon-Seeking Sword transformed into a dense array of sword shadows and disappeared into the void.
A moment later, when these sword shadows appeared simultaneously, the sword shadows in the entire void fell wildly like a sandstorm.
Chen Xuan calmly urged the Dragon-Seeking Sword forward.
But his divine sense was closely monitoring the changes in the Dragon-Seeking Sword.
No detail on the Dragon-Seeking Sword could escape his divine sense at this moment.
Fifteen minutes later, Chen Xuan stopped.
He carefully recorded the problems he encountered while using the Sword Shadow Flying Sand Formation on a blank jade slip.
Then consider how to deal with it.
Once he was certain he had found a solution to these problems, he activated the Sword Shadow Flying Sand Formation once more.
Sure enough, the power of the Sword Shadow Flying Sand Formation was significantly enhanced compared to before.
But Chen Xuan was still not satisfied and seized the time to cultivate.
Several hours later, Chen Xuan put away the Dragon-Seeking Sword.
"The power of the Sword Shadow Flying Sand Formation cannot be improved overnight."
"For now, I'll just continue my cultivation as usual."
"However, I need to improve my cultivation level now!"
Chen Xuan muttered softly.
He immediately got up and left.
When they reappeared, they were already beside the cold pool.
Wow!
He leaped into the icy pool, which quickly engulfed Chen Xuan.
Soon, the immense energy in the icy pool rapidly surged into Chen Xuan's body.
This allowed Chen Xuan's cultivation level to steadily improve at this moment.
However, the life force within Chen Xuan's body was also rapidly decreasing at this moment.
After one-tenth of the life force within Chen Xuan's body disappeared, Chen Xuan finally left the icy pool.
After a short rest, Chen Xuan came to the Heavenly Book Spirit Tablet.
Wow!
All eleven Heavenly Book Spirit Tablets were simultaneously enveloped by Chen Xuan's divine sense.
At this moment, Chen Xuan's calm state of mind was as if a huge mountain had crashed into it, instantly stirring up a monstrous wave.
Chen Xuan's face turned deathly pale at that moment.
But he didn't stop.
He let these terrifying thoughts linger in his mind.
After about half a cup of tea's time, Chen Xuan finally stopped.
Sweat poured down his forehead like a stream.
But at this moment, Chen Xuan's gaze became calmer than ever before.
Even a satisfied smile appeared on his lips.
“Using eleven Heavenly Books and Spiritual Steles to temper my mind is something I have never experienced before.”
"However, I can endure for the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, which has an excellent effect on tempering my mind."
"After repeating this a few more times, my mental state will be completely stable. Even if I directly advance to the Golden Immortal realm in the future, there will be no signs of mental instability!"
Chen Xuan had a big smile on his face.
As he spoke, he once again enveloped the eleven Heavenly Book Spirit Tablets with his divine sense, beginning to temper his mind.
After another half-cup of tea time, Chen Xuan stopped again.
After that, Chen Xuan went directly to the Heavenly Dao Reflection Wall.
Now, the scale of the Heavenly Dao Image Retention Wall in Chen Xuan's hands far exceeds that of before.
From a distance, it formed a huge, blurry picture.
As Chen Xuan's divine sense enveloped these Heavenly Dao Reflection Walls, a cacophony of sounds arose in his ears.
"The so-called Great Way is singular and only through the mind..."
"The mighty power of heaven, drawn forth with the sword..."
"Thunderfire Immortal Technique can ward off demons and exorcise ghosts..."
Various sounds kept ringing in Chen Xuan's ears.
Soon, the noise disappeared again.
Only a few voices remained, still echoing in Chen Xuan's ears.
But even now, Chen Xuan still felt it was a bit noisy.
He calmed his mind and completely eliminated all distracting thoughts.
At that moment, only one clear and resonant sound reached Chen Xuan's ears.
"The so-called Tao is nothing more than the human heart. Cultivating immortality and cultivating the Tao are nothing more than cultivating oneself..."
The voice wasn't loud, but the words were clear and precise, each one a gem.
Chen Xuan could understand some parts, but he had great difficulty understanding others.
Understanding it is even more difficult.
However, this voice greatly invigorated Chen Xuan, who had just heard it.
All signs of fatigue seemed to vanish completely in response to the other person's eloquent words.
An unprecedented clarity also emerged in Chen Xuan's eyes.
After a long while, when the voice of the Heavenly Dao Reflection Wall completely disappeared, Chen Xuan remained seated in the same place.
If anyone could see Chen Xuan's current state of cultivation, they would be astonished to find that he had entered a very profound state.
A thin layer of Daoist aura circulated around him.
Although, from a distance, these Daoist auras appear as nothing more than a thin layer of mist.
It seemed as if it would completely dissipate with the slightest breeze.
However, this thin layer of Daoist charm...
These Daoist auras did not immediately dissipate.
Instead, they gathered around Chen Xuan and rapidly fell into his body.
Although these Daoist principles are extremely rare.
Each strand of Daoist energy appears to be only as thin as a hair.
Yet every trace of Daoist charm is formed by the condensation of true Heavenly Dao power.
It is also a collection of countless rules and forces.
At this moment, every trace of the faint Daoist aura surrounding Chen Xuan was exceptionally precious.
When all of it entered Chen Xuan's body, these sparse Daoist essences actually gathered in Chen Xuan's dantian.
It formed a round bead the size of a sesame seed, shimmering with multicolored light.
This round bead may not look very big, but the aura of the Great Dao emanating from it is significantly stronger than that of other things.
It was even much denser than the faint Daoist aura that appeared around Chen Xuan.
Chen Xuan, who had entered a state of profound mystery, finally woke up.
"This……"
Upon noticing the abnormality within his body, Chen Xuan activated his divine sense, sending it deep into his dantian.
Before long, Chen Xuan could see the round bead that emitted multicolored light clearly.
As Chen Xuan carefully sensed the aura emanating from the five-colored pillar, his expression became extremely surprised.
Soon, an indescribable look of excitement appeared on his face.
"Haha, if I'm not mistaken, this time it's the legendary Dao Seed, right?"
Seed of the Dao!
This is something that can gather the power of the laws of heaven and earth to form the most fundamental power of the laws.
Generally, the appearance of a Dao Seed occurs within the bodies of powerful individuals at the Golden Immortal level or above.
It is extremely rare for a late-stage Celestial Immortal like Chen Xuan to have a Dao Seed within his body.
At this moment, even Chen Xuan himself was somewhat confused.
"I've only seen some records about the Dao Seed in ancient texts. But I have absolutely no idea what its specific uses are!"
"However, there are clear written records about how this thing was formed!"
"At least, in the documents I have seen, there is no record of a Celestial Immortal being able to condense a Dao Seed!"
Chen Xuan muttered softly.
But at this moment, he was shocked to discover that the Dao Seed in his dantian seemed to have no effect since it was formed.
It seems to have simply added a seed to the dantian.
"Forget it, with my current cultivation level, even if I possessed a Dao Seed, I wouldn't know how to use it!"
"In that case, let this seed of Dao remain quietly in the dantian!"
Chen Xuan sighed softly.
They no longer concern themselves with the matter of the Dao Seed.
However, when he comprehended the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth once again, he immediately revealed an indescribable look of surprise.
Previously, when he tried to comprehend the profound words of the Great Dao on the Heavenly Dao Imprint Wall, Chen Xuan discovered that he was completely ignorant of these profound words.
Even if he clearly heard every word spoken by those ancient powerhouses, when put together, he still couldn't understand what they were saying.
But now, understanding these profound truths is a piece of cake for Chen Xuan.
Even if he only glances at it, he can instantly understand the true meaning of the Great Dao's words.
"When did my understanding of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth reach such a level?"
Chen Xuan looked curious.
Taking this opportunity, he carefully studied some of the great principles of heaven and earth that he had previously found difficult to comprehend.
They discovered these fundamental principles of the universe that had previously left them clueless.
It also became much simpler at this moment.
If you're willing, you can easily grasp it.
It seemed that from then on, the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth no longer posed any barriers for Chen Xuan.
He can grasp it anytime he wants, as long as he's willing.
"Could this be the benefit that the Dao Seed has brought me?"
Chen Xuan frowned slightly.
Once again, look inward at the Dao seed in your dantian.
A look of satisfaction quickly appeared on his face.
"Hehe, no wonder the records of Dao seeds in ancient books all appear in the lives of powerful people at the Golden Immortal realm and above!"
"After all, the Celestial Immortal realm is still a whole realm lower than the Golden Immortal realm."
"His understanding and control of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth is far below that of the Golden Immortal realm."
"However, at this moment, I have condensed a Dao Seed in my dantian. This is truly wonderful for me."
"At least, it will be much easier for me to comprehend the great principles of heaven and earth in the future!"
