Chapter 461: Is This the Nascent Soul Stage?

The surroundings suddenly became pitch black. Lu Pingxi opened his eyes and found himself in the universe, in the cold, dark, vast universe.

It was silent here. Lu Pingxi could even hear his heartbeat clearly. Gradually, he heard the sound of blood flowing in his veins and the sound of his intestines moving. The subtle sounds that were impossible to hear at ordinary times seemed to become extremely huge at this moment, almost filling his ears.

Extremely quiet!

Lu Pingxi had reached this state a long time ago, but he had never encountered a situation like now where he opened his eyes and saw a starry sky.

This was a silent starry sky, a lonely starry sky. Although there were stars, he didn't know how many trillions of light years separated him.

But this was not a real starry sky, because Lu Pingxi did not feel the pressure from the inside out, which meant that this was not a vacuum, and he was not irradiated by cosmic rays, which meant that this was not the universe.

This was an illusion.

Lu Pingxi stayed in this place, he could not do anything, his aura and divine power were still restricted, and even if he took out the Chaos Dagger and used the power of Chaos, he could not split this place.

Here, he could not feel time or space.

This was the fourth level of the Void Palace, a very terrifying level.

There were no enemies or monsters here, only his own mind.

Lu Pingxi stayed in this silent illusion, he could not do anything, nothing.

This was a lonely illusion, in which he could only think.

However, Lu Pingxi remembered that a long time ago, he had connected with a big man who became a god alone through the Sky Eye. That big man also realized something in such a dark world, and perhaps, he could also realize something.

Lu Pingxi immediately sat down cross-legged, but he felt that this posture was uncomfortable, so he simply lay down and looked at the endless stars.

Lu Pingxi was thinking and considering, but gradually, he had nothing to consider. What was there to consider? In this world with nothing, what else could he consider?

Thinking is based on action. You only need to think if you are going to do something next. For example, if you want to take a driver's license test, you need to think about how to take the test and how to drive; if you want to take the college entrance examination, you will think about how to review and what to prepare.

But if you want to sleep next, will you still consider how to sleep? How to sleep?

If you can't do anything next, then there is no need to think about it. What to consider?

Ordinary people think about getting married, having children, buying a house and a car, but if he is caught in such an empty place and can never get out, will he still consider those things?

There is no need, because he has already left that world, and that world has nothing to do with him.

So Lu Pingxi thought and thought, and then gave up thinking.

There was no thought, no consideration of anything, and he was completely quiet. There was no need to consider, no need to think, because he had left that world.

Because he.

Wait!

Could it be that Lu Pingxi has jumped out of the world, is no longer in the five elements, and has jumped out of the three realms?

Is it really that easy to jump out of this world?

At that moment, Lu Pingxi seemed to sense something, and then he suddenly closed his eyes and immersed his mind in his golden elixir.

At this moment, there was already a small Lu Pingxi sitting cross-legged in Lu Pingxi's golden elixir. This was a phantom, but it was very real, which showed that Lu Pingxi had already entered the peak of the golden elixir realm.

To break through the golden elixir stage, you need to be mentally perfect, and your soul needs to be flawless and round like a golden elixir, so it is called the golden elixir stage.

But what does it take to break through the Yuanying stage?

Lu Pingxi suddenly guessed, because the self with closed eyes in the golden elixir he saw suddenly felt that this self was his next direction.

In the golden elixir stage, the spirit is perfect.

In the Yuanying stage, the spirit is unified.

To cultivate immortals is to cultivate the truth, and to cultivate the truth is to cultivate myself.

The reason why the foundation-building stage is the foundation-building stage is because this is the foundation, and only when you reach the golden elixir stage can you be considered to have entered the realm of cultivation.

The first step is to be mentally perfect and to ensure that you have no flaws, and then the next step is to unify the spirit and form, and then break the elixir and become an infant.

To put it simply, this process is to control every cell and every DNA fragment of oneself, that is, to hide the spirit and oneself in one's own body.

As we all know, we humans will not die even if our hands are broken, and we can live even if our hearts are broken by replacing them. So, what is me? Is this body me, or is it the brain that perceives everything me?

If this body is me, then if someone else's blood is transfused into my body, then I am not completely me? But I have to metabolize every day, so I am not me after metabolism?

So I am actually just my brain?

Even in the future, when technology is advanced, we can replace the brain and upload memories, then I am just a memory?

Think about it carefully, the hormone secretion in our body and our conditioned reflexes are not controllable by ordinary people. We can't even use our will to change our genes, we can't change our body shape, and we can't even exert 100% muscle strength.

Is this also me? What is the difference between this and a robot controlled by humans?

So the Nascent Soul stage is to become the real me.

It is not just hormone secretion, not just conditioned reflexes, but even cells and genes can be controlled by themselves. In the Nascent Soul stage, one can completely control oneself and one's own body. As long as there is energy, one can reshape the body and transform the demon form into a human form.

Why can Bai Suzhen have children with Xu Xian? Isn't it because she completely modified her genes? Otherwise, how can humans and snakes have offspring?

So if you want to enter the Nascent Soul stage, you must do this step, the unity of spirit and form, I completely control my body, I am me, and my body is me.

It sounds very mysterious and philosophical, but isn't cultivation so mysterious and philosophical?

Lu Pingxi suddenly sensed this and suddenly realized this. Then, he felt that something in his soul was opened. At that moment, he suddenly received countless information from his body.

Hormone secretion, DNA transformation, mitochondria provide energy, spiritual energy circulation, every cell sent him information. Now his body is like suddenly entering the modern society from the feudal slave society.

From delivering documents by carriage to the electronic office era.

He can get the situation of each cell and then give feedback. Now, if a virus invades the body, he only needs to issue an order, and these countless cells will kill the virus by themselves, instead of foolishly letting the virus invade themselves.

Now Lu Pingxi, it seems that each cell has its own will.

Lu Pingxi understood everything, and he slowly opened his eyes.

"Is this the Nascent Soul Stage?"

"Crack!"

A voice from the depths of the soul sounded, and then, Lu Pingxi's golden elixir was suddenly covered with cracks.
