Chapter 27 Ontology You May Have Exposed
In the cave sky of the sect's forbidden area, Xu Ran's figure suddenly appeared. Just after hearing the message from the tool man's clone, he hurriedly used his magical power and teleported over.
Once inside the cave, Xu Ran made no secret of his eagerness, breathing rapidly and trembling slightly.
"What does the news you just sent mean? Is it certain? Are you sure?"
He asked three questions in succession as soon as he came up, seemingly in disbelief.
"Really, the time has come for you to break through, but..." The tool man's clone looked at Xu Ran with a hesitant expression, as if it was difficult to say anything.
"But what?" Xu Ran urged impatiently. This was a matter of his own path. For more than two thousand years, his cultivation had been stuck at the stage of transformation into gods and could not break through. This had become a problem for him.
As a time traveler, who wants to stay in a deserted mountain all the time? But this world is too scary, and even the system doesn't dare to let him out, so what can he do?
For more than two thousand years, he has always thought about breaking through in his cultivation. However, after reaching the stage of becoming a god, his cultivation can no longer continue to break through, and even the system cannot help him.
There are two reasons for not being able to break through. The first is the lack of corresponding resources. This is not the point. After all, with the system's love for him... ahem, with the system's loyalty to him, it will definitely find a way to help him solve it.
.
The main reason is caused by the cultivation system of Immortal Ancient Continent.
Before the immortals, this world had nine realms: Qi training - Foundation building - Golden elixir - Nascent Soul - Transformation into gods - Leaving the body - Fusion - Overcoming tribulations - Mahayana.
Among these nine realms, four realms are relatively special. One is the Golden Elixir Stage and the Tribulation-Transcending Stage. These two realms require you to survive the Heavenly Tribulation before you can be promoted.
There is also the Mahayana period, which is the last realm before the immortals, so we won’t mention it here for now.
The last one is the out-of-body experience that Xu Ran is facing now. In the Immortal Ancient Continent, when the spirit breaks through to the out-of-body stage, the soul needs to leave the body to summon the laws of the great world in this world, and then let his soul be in the great laws of the world.
The mark of the soul is imprinted on it.
Only in this way can one be recognized by heaven and earth and be allowed to comprehend the great laws of heaven and earth and break through to the out-of-body stage.
After Xu Ran reached the peak of becoming a god, he was unable to summon the Great Law. Even if the system personally took action, it could not help him summon the Great Law.
He couldn't figure out the reason. Later, the system guessed that there might be two reasons. The first one might be because he was a time traveler. Because he was an outsider, the Yuan Shen was not recognized by the laws of the Great Dao of the Immortal Ancient Continent, so there was no way to summon him.
come out.
But later I felt that this possibility was unlikely. If he was really not recognized, he would have been punished by heaven and earth and would have been killed by heaven. How could he still be here so well?
Excluding this possibility, the system speculates that the Great Law of this world is very likely to be controlled by the powerful people of this world. If you want to summon the Great Law to imprint the Primordial Spirit Seal, you can only register and obtain permission.
Xu Ran thinks this is unlikely, because if it is true, what will happen to casual cultivators in this world?
But the system letter sneered at Xu Ran's rebuttal and said harshly:
"Because in this way, all the casual cultivators in the world will be recorded in the book. If any casual cultivator dares to do anything detrimental to their rule in the future, they must consider it carefully and record it in the small book!
In that case, who among the casual cultivators in the world would dare to resist? Their power rule would be unbreakable.
People in this world are really insidious and cunning. Even if you become an immortal in the future, Xiaoran, you must be careful because you can easily be tricked."
Xu Ran was deeply convinced of this and was filled with resentment towards the major forces in the Immortal Ancient Continent. Not only did they monopolize the cultivation resources, but they even set up gates for promotion. If they wanted to continue to break through, they had to surrender to them.
Later, Xu Ran thought about surrendering, so he surrendered. Anyway, as long as he could continue to improve his cultivation level, he discussed with the system whether to find a big force outside and join them.
But the system quickly stopped and said:
"I am a system, a bug-like existence, but even I can't help you summon the laws of the great way. You can imagine how terrifying your cultivation level is. It is definitely an existence that surpasses me now.
Now they control the laws of the great road. Once you join them and bear the mark of the soul, your identity as a time traveler will definitely be noticed, and even my existence will be discovered.
An existence from other civilizations and a magical system, the consequences can be imagined.
Xiaoran, remember, in this world, we are the only two who are absolutely trustworthy."
Xu Ran once asked the system, wouldn't it be possible for him to break through to the out-of-body stage in his lifetime?
The system finally came up with a way to find some special primordial soul marks and then directly refine them. To put it simply, it was to smuggle in and obtain a legal identity record, so that it could avoid the other party's detection.
But this condition is extremely harsh. First, the soul imprint needs to be turned into a tangible object. After all, the soul imprint is imprinted on the laws of the great road, so how can it be turned into a tangible object?
Secondly, this primordial spirit mark needs to be successfully imprinted on the law of the great road and recognized. Only in this way, when he is about to be refined, Bai can use the identity of this primordial spirit mark to successfully sneak out and become a legal identity.
Out-of-body period.
Xu Ran has given up struggling with this plan. To achieve such conditions is tantamount to wishful thinking.
What's more, even if there really is one, how can he find it if he lives in this place where birds don't poop?
The system also did not want Xu Ran to risk going out to search for this special soul mark, lest the identity of the time traveler be exposed, so it asked Xu Ran to continue waiting for the opportunity.
Anyway, in the Immortal Ancient Continent, monks in the transformation stage have a life span of more than 10,000 years. They have enough time, and the system says it will find a way.
After more than two thousand years of this, a set of exercises was systematically developed, which was said to be inspired by countless fantasy novels about cultivating immortals in previous lives.
This set of skills is the "Immortal Ancient Body" that he is practicing now. The name means that the entire Immortal Ancient Continent cannot destroy him.
The most important function of the "Immortal Ancient Body" is that after cultivation, it can force the will of heaven and earth to recognize Xu Ran's legal identity without being certified by the laws of the Immortal Ancient Continent.
Xu Ran couldn't understand the reason, and the system didn't explain it to him. In its words, the products produced by the system must be high-quality! Just practice with peace of mind.
Xu Ran was very happy to find a way to be promoted, but not long after getting this set of skills, the system disappeared due to exhaustion of energy.
And when this set of exercises is promoted, it requires a lot of training resources. This goes back to the original problem. The training resources are monopolized by major forces.
This is also the reason why Xu Ran ventured to the outside world after the system disappeared, just to try his luck in collecting high-level cultivation resources. Previously, in the Baibao Pavilion in Xuanyang City, he collected more than a dozen sixth-level spirits in one go.
He was happy for a long time.
He has already calculated that if he can get this kind of harvest every time, based on the frequency of his outings, he can collect all the resources he needs within 5,000 to 8,000 years.
You can definitely break through to the out-of-body stage before exhaustion.
Of course, he didn't think about collecting them quickly, but that would be too dangerous. He was so blatantly collecting sixth-level resources, even if he was pretending to be an unfathomable boss, he could easily be targeted by interested people.
Not only was his identity as a boss fake, he had never appeared before, but he suddenly appeared and was so aggressive in collecting resources above level six.
In the eyes of those big forces, are there some people or organizations secretly trying to resist them? And then they follow the trend and target themselves, and the result is...
So we can only figure it out slowly, no rush.
Xu Ran originally planned like this, but today the clone of the tool man said that the time has come for a breakthrough, and the only thing that makes this possible is the plan he gave up before, the special soul mark.
That's why he was so shocked and impatient. After all, there is a faster way, who is willing to wait any longer?
The toolman clone hesitated for a while and said:
