Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 3221 - 1213: The Secret of Spirit Mechanism, Opening Mountain Sea_3
Previously on Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster...
Only when he reached the Ninth Floor did he finally perceive an obstruction.
It was a Divine Soul Restriction of Refining Void Level!
Luo Chen understood at once: the Nine Layers of the Book Collection Pavilion of the Su Ling Sect should have been established according to cultivation realms.
The Sixth Floor and below correspond to the Golden Core Realm and realms beneath it.
The Seventh and Eighth Floors are places that only a Nascent Soul True Master may set foot in.
As for the Ninth Floor, it must have been personally set up by the Taisu Spirit Monarch, and only a Divine Transformation Great Power may enter.
However, for Luo Chen, this was already enough.
A Nascent Soul True Master, whether in the Mountain Sea Realm or in the Mystic Realm, is a force that cannot be ignored.
The information and knowledge such a person can come into contact with are sufficient to be counted as secret matters of the Immortal Cultivation World.
His physical body lingered and roamed on the First Floor, only bit by bit stepping into the Second and Third, even the Fourth.
Yet his Divine Perception had already roamed freely through the abundant collections on the Seventh and Eighth Floors.
As for Cultivation Technique Books, he did not place much importance on them.
Most of his attention was focused on travel notes and solitary, unique volumes.
Suddenly!
Luo Chen’s Divine Perception stirred, silently probing into a certain light-shield.
Within it, a Jade Slip was rapidly read by Luo Chen without anyone noticing.
[Spirit Mechanism Miscellaneous Talks]
This was precisely the matter he paid the closest attention to.
Ever since arriving in the Mystic Realm, he had discovered that the quantity of Spirit Mechanism his Red Eyes Golden Pupils could observe was extremely scant.
At that time, he had assumed that, on the Youxuan Continent, where sects rose one after another, the various Great Sects were using Secret Techniques to encircle and restrict the Spirit Mechanism.
But once he truly entered the Su Ling Sect, he was astonished to discover that whether it was the Fourth Order Spirit Vein, or the Fifth Order Spirit Vein where the Eight Great Divinity Transformation Elders resided, the amount of Spirit Mechanism was utterly thin.
Let alone supporting Divine Transformation Great Powers in their daily comprehension of Law Origin, it was difficult even to support a Nascent Soul Late-Stage Cultivator in breaking through to the Divine Transformation Stage.
In other words!
Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators on the Youxuan Continent find it extremely hard to preemptively comprehend Law Origin by absorbing Spirit Mechanism.
If they wish to break through to the Divine Transformation Stage, they can only, step by step, follow the proper cultivation progression.
They must accumulate vast Qi Power, condense their Primordial Spirit, and then naturally break through to the Divine Transformation Stage.
Afterward, within the Primordial Energy Ocean, they grope for the Law Origin suited to themselves.
Luo Chen naturally did not wish to proceed in this fashion, and so he had been pondering why exactly such a situation had come to be.
This "Spirit Mechanism Miscellaneous Talks" might be able to resolve his doubts.
As his Divine Perception went deeper, the information within was reflected into Luo Chen’s mind one after another, and his expression gradually took on a subtle, even solemn change.
What is called Spirit Mechanism!
It is not power, but the consciousness born of a stretch of heaven and earth.
This consciousness impels the growth of all things within that heaven and earth, and from it are derived the various Daoist Laws.
Thus, people often say that Heaven and Earth possess spirit; this "spirit" has never referred to Spirit Qi, but rather to this elusive and unfathomable thing known as "Spirit Mechanism."
Ordinary folk are fundamentally incapable of capturing such an existence; those who on rare occasions gain a trace will enter a state of Sudden Enlightenment, comprehending much in the span of a single night and saving themselves several decades, even a hundred years of effort.
Therefore, there has long been the saying: "The Spirit Mechanism of the cosmos is obscure and distant, vast and dim; the Great Dao Path is hard to seek, living beings remain veiled. Only when Heaven bestows Spirit Mechanism, shining forth with nothing concealed, can the clouds be parted and the mists dispelled."
Yet in "Spirit Mechanism Miscellaneous Talks," another view is proposed.
Or perhaps the author had observed a certain phenomenon.
Namely, that on the Youxuan Continent, and indeed throughout the entire Mystic Realm, the quantity of Spirit Mechanism is exceedingly sparse.
Even a Fifth Order Spirit Vein can hardly naturally generate a large amount of Spirit Mechanism.
Regarding this phenomenon, some speculate that it has been drawn away by the Mahayana Venerable at the apex of the realm; others conjecture that it is due to this world of the Mystic Realm itself.
The latter view, in particular, has gained wide acceptance.
The Mystic Realm is too vast, and also too ancient.
So ancient that the consciousness of this heaven and earth has solidified.
Moreover, through the births and deaths of countless living beings over hundreds of millions of years, too many stray thoughts have flooded into it, confounding the Spirit Mechanism.
And one strong piece of evidence supporting this viewpoint is that some powerful figures, in the new Small Worlds they have explored, have discovered great quantities of abundant Spirit Mechanism.
Upon reading this, Luo Chen could not help but fall into deep thought.
In his memories, it was as if more than one person had spoken similar words before him.
The Tai Sui of the Land of Fallen Demons, Fu Chaosheng of the Tianyuan Daoist Sect, and others.
All of them had mentioned that the Spirit Mechanism in the Mountain Sea Realm was flourishing, far surpassing other places, and thus outstanding talents emerged in endless succession.
"In newly born Small Worlds, is the Spirit Mechanism greater?"
While Luo Chen pondered, the subsequent contents of the book poured into his mind one after another.
When he read a certain record, his mind instantly trembled.
[Ten thousand years ago, the Demon Cave surged, space overlapped, and someone discovered a Barbaric World brimming with Spirit Mechanism. The Tianyuan Daoist Sect took the lead, joining forces with the Yuan Mo Sect and Dark Abyss Sect among the Nine Great Saint Sects of the Youxuan Continent, as well as the Gate of Life and Death on the Ten Thousand Spirits Continent, to jointly Open War for development. During the war, numerous minor forces likewise joined in.]
[For ten thousand years, the Tianyuan Daoist Sect has reaped great rewards from that Small World, and thus geniuses have emerged in their sect one after another, with Great Power True Monarchs repeatedly advancing.]
[That Barbaric World was given the name Mountain Sea Realm!]
