Chapter 199 Incense Shinto, Ranch of Gods and Demons
"The tenth level of blood nourishing, the tenth level of blood refining, and the tenth level of blood transfusion."
Chen Mo looked at the skills in his hands. Most of them were obtained from aristocratic families in the city, and there were two books from martial arts schools in the city.
These exercises are similar, and the early-stage training methods are not much different from those of body-training warriors.
They are all about condensing and nourishing the qi and blood in the body. During these processes, various types of elixirs can also be used to speed up cultivation.
Because there are many demons in this world, most of the resources for warriors to practice come from demons.
Although judging from the situation in this world, the demon is very powerful, but it is a powerful demon.
Demons who are weak and at the bottom will still be exploited and killed by powerful demons.
Regardless of whether they are monsters or humans, the ones who endure hardship are always the ones at the bottom.
Chen Mo browsed the technique carefully and found that there was no big problem between the blood nourishing realm and the blood refining realm. The main problem was the blood exchange realm.
Different from Zhenqi warriors or body-refining warriors, after reaching a certain level, they have to accommodate the power of heaven and earth for their own use, so that their cultivation can progress further.
The power of heaven and earth in this world is chaotic, complex and almost integrated into the mirage. Forcibly absorbing it by those who lack strength will only cause their own distortion.
Therefore, the realm of blood exchange is a real blood exchange. The warrior must replace his own blood essence with the blood of demons.
In this process, the warrior will inevitably become demonized, and some characteristics that are unique to demons will gradually appear on his body.
Replace one's own blood with the higher and more powerful demon essence blood, and the stronger the power the warrior can control.
Blood exchange does not necessarily require the use of extremely powerful demon blood at the beginning.
The one with the best effect is the blood of demons that is compatible with the warrior and just reaches the upper limit of the warrior's endurance.
For example, a warrior has been bathing himself in tiger blood since he first started practicing.
So when it comes time to exchange blood, it is natural to exchange the blood of the tiger fairy into the body for the best effect.
The tenth level of blood exchange is the process in which a warrior continuously increases the blood essence of his own monsters.
It can be said that the more the demonic beast essence and blood exchanged into the body matches the warrior, the more powerful it will be. Then the warrior will be stronger in this realm, and his achievements in the future will be higher.
After changing to the realm of blood, if a warrior wants to practice again, he cannot only rely on his own strength, but must find a way to accommodate the power of heaven and earth into his body.
If you want to take this path, there are two ways. One is to concentrate.
With extremely strong will and belief, the power of heaven and earth is forcibly integrated into the body. The mental toughness of the warrior who achieves this step is far greater than that of ordinary people.
Once the power of heaven and earth enters the body, the combat power will inevitably increase dramatically. It can continuously absorb power and temper its own blood.
Not only that, because the will is strong enough, warriors in this realm will understand an inexplicable spiritual light, which is called the cicada's awakening before the autumn wind moves.
Warriors at this level can predict the enemy's moves in advance, anticipate the enemy's opportunities, and respond accordingly.
From Chen Mo's perspective, this was because his will was extremely strong and his spiritual power was concentrated to the extreme, allowing him to catch a glimpse of the aura of heaven and earth.
Being able to see the signs of the movement of the power of heaven and earth, one can naturally judge the signs of the enemy taking action.
The Heavenly Palace's secret method of strategizing the secrets of heaven was created based on this.
Chen Mo can also achieve this step, but simply observing with his spiritual mind cannot compare with Ce Tianji's planning.
But for the warriors in this world, this is already an extremely rare thing.
It's just that because the laws of heaven and earth are chaotic, the warriors in this world only know how it is, but don't know why.
Warriors who practice in this way are called entry warriors.
Above the entering warriors is the Grandmaster, who has polished the ray of aura of heaven and earth he has captured to a further level, becomes stronger, and has a clearer perception of heaven and earth.
Entering warriors are extremely powerful, but their training is extremely difficult, and there are certain risks during the training process. The physical body may not be able to bear the impact of the power of heaven and earth. If something goes wrong, the body will explode and die.
Besides practicing in this way, there is a second way.
Its name is serving the gods, or worshiping the gods.
Worship those powerful gods, become their followers or divine envoys, gain a ray of divinity into your body, and use your divinity to refine and master the power of heaven and earth.
There are many types of gods, including gods of mountains, rivers and swamps, and demons and demons becoming gods, such as the Youhu God. Of course, there are also powerful human beings who become gods, or some gods are originally descended from the human race.
Gods need faith in incense, not all living beings can provide faith in incense, at least they must have spiritual intelligence.
In addition, the human race also has several powerful gods. Because of this, the human race has not been completely exterminated, and this world has not been completely invaded by demons.
The practice of the Samurai Warrior is simple, almost without any difficulty, and relatively safe.
The most important thing is that once a warrior has completed the cultivation, he can receive the blessings of the gods, and his ability to save his life will be greatly enhanced. If he is really in danger, he can use his own divinity to perform divine conquests.
When the gods come, the strength of the warrior will be doubled.
The disadvantage is that it is always controlled by the gods. Once the gods take back their divinity, the warrior will die directly because he cannot control his own power of heaven and earth.
In addition to this shortcoming, the biggest problem for this type of warrior is how to find a god to serve and worship.
Worshiping the gods is easy, but getting gifts from the gods is not easy.
Therefore, all the stronger forces in this world have one or several gods behind them.
Even several small aristocratic families in the city have good relations with many big forces. If a strong warrior appears in the family, they can serve the gods.
Then you can receive a ray of divinity and become a divine envoy.
The reason why the county magistrate enshrined the Youhu God was probably because his family had a close relationship with the Youhu God.
As a human being, believing in the god of demons is definitely a serious crime that can kill the Nine Clans.
But the county magistrate placed it grandly in the main hall, which shows that although this law exists, no one cares about it anymore.
The reason is simple, because there are too few human gods, and there are not many divinities that can be differentiated.
So if the top forces don't have enough for themselves, how can they give it to others?
It is too difficult to become an entry warrior. In this case, worshiping demons and gods is undoubtedly the fastest and easiest way.
Not only the county magistrate is doing this, but many forces in the world are doing it, but some are doing it openly and some are doing it covertly.
The court couldn't control it, because it was impossible to kill everyone.
What's more, doing so will undoubtedly offend many demons and gods.
Therefore, the imperial court basically adopted a tacit attitude towards this matter. As long as they did not publicize it, they would pay no attention to it while worshiping at home.
It is also because of the worshipers and mirror warriors, as well as several gods, that the human race can still have a place in this world.
Even so, from Chen Mo's point of view, it is only a matter of time before this world is occupied by demons.
Because this world is no longer suitable for the human race to practice, the existing solutions are just to let the human race linger.
Chen Mo put down the technique in his hand and based on what he had heard so far.
In addition to the two practices recorded above, there is another type of practice that is not recorded in it.
That is, incense can become a god. There is no need to worship other gods. You can gather the incense of faith, condense your divinity, and ignite the divine fire to become a god yourself.
This step is indeed difficult to take. The warrior himself needs to have extremely strong strength, and enough people must believe in him to make it.
In addition, this method should only be in the hands of a few strong people in this world.
Because there are only a limited number of gods that creatures in the world can support, if there are too many gods and there is not enough faith and incense, a war between gods may occur.
Therefore, whether it is demons or human gods, both parties are intentionally controlling the birth of new gods.
But now that I have a ray of divinity, I might try to tame it to consolidate my divine status.
I just don’t know how far the method of incense cultivation in this world is from what I know.
Chen Mo has a thorough understanding of these skills. With his strength and vision, he can read them completely after reading them once.
If you are willing, it is not too difficult to create a few new techniques.
Especially for the tenth level of blood exchange, he already had a plan in his mind to replace the demon's blood.
That is to use one's own blood, but this method cannot be used on oneself.
Although his current incarnation is not very powerful, his energy and blood essence are extremely high, far better than most demons in this world.
If he gives a strand of his own Qi and blood to others, then that person can start practicing cultivation based on his Qi and blood.
The reason why the human race in this world uses the blood of demons to practice is because the human race is born with a weak constitution and the incompleteness of heaven and earth. It cannot accommodate the power of heaven and earth to polish itself, so it can only use the blood of demons to make up for its own shortcomings.
Chen Mo comes from another world, and his physical cultivation is far superior to that of most powerful people in this world.
The most important thing is that his blood is also the blood of the human race, which is consistent with the human race in the world.
Practicing with his Qi and blood as the foundation is much safer and more stable than using the demon's Qi and blood.
"Try some practice." Chen Mo closed all the skills and looked at Bai Yuxia.
"Can you give me a drop of your blood?" Bai Yuxia asked in a serious voice. With her eyesight, she could naturally see the details of this technique.
And he figured out in just a moment that if he could replace his own energy and blood with Chen Mo's energy and blood, he would be able to raise the upper limit of his incarnation to a higher level.
"Yes." Chen Mo nodded lightly and forced a drop of his own blood to be handed over to Bai Yuxia.
"Thank you." She smiled, remembering this friendship in her heart. With her character, she would definitely find an opportunity to repay him in the future.
Chen Mo didn't take it to heart and walked to a side room.
The house where the two of them are now is still the magistrate's mansion, but this mansion is now empty.
Chen Mo sat cross-legged and practiced to mobilize the qi and blood in his body. The qi and blood rushed to suppress the ray of divinity, trying to wipe out the consciousness in it and use it for his own use.
He immersed his mind into the order of rewarding good and punishing evil. He had fought all the way, and now he had accumulated more than 37,000 points of good deeds.
It can be seen that the behavior of the person he just killed was worse than many monsters.
In fact, this is normal. The evil of demons is to devour human beings, but most demons only harm one or two villages and towns at most.
The evil of corrupt officials and evil gentry is even more demonic. If they charge an extra tax, they will destroy many families.
Chen Mo was so absorbed in it that he first exchanged it for two Man Elephant Huntian Pills, which cost him 20,000 points of good deeds.
With more than 17,000 points left, Chen Mo kept searching within the Order of Rewarding Good and Punishing Evil, and finally found what he needed.
Its name is the Dingshen Treasure Furnace, and it is something used by incense and fire Shinto warriors for their practice.
Lighting the concentration furnace can help warriors to calm their minds and gather their spirituality.
And after refining it, it can also use the treasure furnace as the foundation to ignite the divine fire.
The most important thing is that practitioners of the Incense Path can use this treasure furnace to prevent believers' thoughts from affecting themselves as much as possible.
Practitioners of the Incense Path have countless followers and will receive countless thoughts. If these thoughts are too many and too messy, they will affect the cultivator himself, and may even cause the cultivator to become possessed by demons.
The Dingshen Treasure Furnace is designed to solve this problem and can refine the thoughts of believers and transform them into the purest power of faith.
If Chen Mo wants to try to practice the incense and fire divine way, this treasure furnace is indispensable.
Fortunately, the value of the first-level concentration treasure furnace is not high, only fifteen thousand points of good deeds.
The disadvantage is that it can only accommodate the thoughts of refining 10,000 believers at most, but it is enough to meet the needs of my own initial practice.
In exchange for the Dingshen Treasure Furnace, Chen Mo first swallowed the Wild Elephant Huntian Pill.
The two elixirs combined have a total strength of 25,000 kilograms, plus his own strength of 27,000 kilograms.
But this is still not the upper limit of his own blood. Chen Mo has practiced physical skills to reach the realm of creation, and his physical body has undergone many transformations.
Even if he is restricted in this world, according to his estimation, his health limit can still reach the one hundred thousand kilogram mark.
It's just that after reaching this limit, if you want to improve it, you must use other methods.
Chen Mo's mind sank into one body, and he used his blood and energy to refine the calming furnace.
The treasure furnace is not big, it is bronze in color, and it is so exquisite and small that it can be held in one hand.
There is nothing special about the cloud patterns engraved on the treasure furnace.
Chen Mo refined it with blood and energy, and the treasure furnace flowed into his body along with the blood and energy, and finally condensed in the sea of consciousness.
A ray of divine consciousness is differentiated and integrated into the treasure furnace. Once the practice is completed, the divine fire can be ignited.
The ray of divinity in the mysterious orifice no longer reacted at all, and the thoughts contained in the divinity were washed away by the torrent of blood.
According to the practice method of this world, the warrior who worships the gods must integrate with this ray of divine thoughts.
This process is completed passively, and the warrior is completely controlled by that ray of divinity.
Chen Mo will use the incense and fire method of spiritual practice to separate a ray of spiritual thought to control this divinity.
This step is difficult or easy to say. Chen Mo is not starting from scratch. As long as he can master the divinity, he can become an introduction to Shinto practice.
The next path to spiritual practice is even simpler, as long as there are enough believers.
There are enough believers to provide a sufficient amount of faith power, so that this initial condensed divinity will continue to grow until the divine fire is finally ignited. This is the way of practicing the incense Shinto.
The difficulty is not in the understanding and qualifications, but in the resources.
Only with enough believers can the monks of Incense Shinto be strong enough.
Chen Mo used his blood energy to carry this ray of divinity into the sea of consciousness. His own spiritual thoughts quickly became active, and all his power condensed into one, trying to refine and master this divinity.
Not only that, the Dingshen treasure furnace is also running slowly, trying to incorporate this ray of divinity into the treasure furnace.
The method used by Chen Mo is stupid, but the effect is very good.
The power of his spiritual thoughts is powerful, even far beyond this divinity, so now he uses the method of subduing ten societies with one force to forcibly control it.
If the ordinary practice of incense and fire is based on oneself, Chen Mo is now forcibly mastering this ray of divinity and using it as a weapon.
Its biggest advantage is that it will not affect itself, let alone be restricted by the divine status.
Even if something goes wrong, you can cut off the divinity at any time, or directly dissipate the divinity and transfer its power into yourself.
After an unknown amount of time, Chen Mo finally grasped this ray of divinity.
The divinity gathers spiritual thoughts and merges into the Calming Treasure Furnace. The appearance of this divinity is still very vague, but it can be vaguely similar to Chen Mo.
Through this ray of divinity, Chen Mo was able to use the power of heaven and earth in this world.
The laws of the surrounding world are flowing and changing endlessly. The power of the laws and the power of mirage are mixed together, giving the whole world a layer of black mist.
The ray of divinity that Chen Mo possesses is too weak. Although it can leverage the power of heaven and earth, the quantity is too small.
However, at this moment, strands of power of faith began to gather, and the concentration furnace began to operate, and began to calcine those thoughts of faith, turning them into the purest power of faith.
Chen Mo followed these thoughts and looked at it. The power of faith is just a simple title. Those who can give birth to this power may not really believe in themselves.
Gratitude, fear, reverence, and other emotions can all be attributed to the power of faith.
Even simply knowing one's own existence can provide one with some power of faith, but the amount is very small.
Therefore, many gods, even if they already have countless believers, still work tirelessly to spread the Dharma. In addition to expanding their faith, they also spread their own divine names.
Chen Mo followed the sources of the power of faith and saw vaguely that there were people who were grateful to him. Most of these people were civilian husbands, as well as women and children who were in the hands of Ren Yazi.
Bai Yuxia sent them back to her home one by one, and they also understood that it was Chen Mo and Bai Yuxia who saved them.
In addition, there are many people who are afraid of themselves, and this number is quite large. For example, many children of aristocratic families in the city have seen the scene when they kill people, but they dare not confront themselves. Some even dare not resent themselves, and even more Mostly fear.
In addition, there is a greater source of power of faith, and this power is very clear, and everyone has reverence, even worship, for themselves.
Looking at the source of this power, it is quite surprising.
The source of this power turned out to be the Changsheng County Lieutenant and his servants. Not only that, this respect for himself seemed to be spreading from this point of origin.
Chen Mo really couldn't understand why the other party had such respect for him.
But this was not very important. An idea was constantly forming in his mind.
Since you can give your Qi and blood to others, let them start practicing, and then they can worship you as a god.
On this basis, you can build a power that is unique to you. Through this power, you can control the power of the Zhou Dynasty.
This path is indeed good. Even if you don't seize the power of the dynasty, you must do it because you need the power of faith to improve yourself.
Chen Mo was thinking about his next plan when he suddenly felt his blood throbbing.
He stopped practicing, stood up and walked to the other side of the house.
Bai Yuxia is refining her own blood and replacing the blood in her body with Chen Mo's.
What she has to do next is to continue to use the power of her own blood to cultivate the ray of blood given to her by Chen Mo, so as to strengthen her own foundation.
However, Chen Mo could feel that he could withdraw the energy and blood from Bai Yuxia's body at any time as long as he wanted to.
If she really does this, her future practice will be to help herself practice. Not only that, as she becomes stronger, the power of Qi and blood he gives her will become stronger, and the limitations she will suffer from herself will become greater.
When she reaches the point where her blood transfusion is complete, she will be able to take back all the energy and blood in her body with just one thought.
And judging from Bai Yuxia's current performance, she herself is not aware of this.
Even with her strength, she can't detect it, and it's even less possible for other warriors to detect it.
Chen Mowan never expected that the skills in this world would be so secretive.
If this is the case, then the situation in this world may be different from what I imagined.
Chen Mo originally thought that the human race in this world could survive because at least they had the skills to survive and practice, and there were many gods on the human race's side.
Even though the demons are powerful, they are not monolithic and cannot fight against the humans in this situation.
But now, the discovery of new techniques has overturned the previous conclusion.
If the blood of demons must be used for cultivation, then all the human races in this world may have survived with the tacit consent of a certain powerful demon.
Humans are livestock in its pastures. They are herded here and raised in this world. When they grow up, they are killed to drink their meat and blood.
This is probably the reason why the human race in this world can survive so far.
There is a god and demon in the darkness, grazing the human race in the world.
