The dao song was filled with celestial intent, containing its own profound true meaning.
Patriarch Subhuti stretched his back. Seeing the monkey kneeling on the ground, he let out a loud bellow as if he had just discovered it.
"Monkey, what are you doing here in the middle of the night?"
Sun Wukong replied, "Master, disciple has been kneeling here for a long time. I faced everyone in front of the Patriarch Altar and told disciple to impart me dao arts from the back door at midnight. Therefore, I boldly paid my respects to Master. "
The Patriarch was very happy when he heard that. He thought to himself, "This guy is really born from the heavens and earth! If not, why would he be able to break the mystery of my plate? "
Seeing that the Patriarch was happy, Sun Wukong felt blessed and said, "There are no six ears here, only disciple. Master, please be merciful and impart the dao of longevity to me. Sun Wukong will never forget your kindness! "
After saying that, he kowtowed deeply to express his thanks.
At this moment, the monkey didn't raise his head and couldn't see clearly.
Feng Lin was hidden in his heart, but he could see it clearly.
Right now, Patriarch Subhuti's gaze was deep, no longer calm. He looked deeply at the stone monkey under his feet. His eyes seemed to be able to see through the river of time, seeing through all illusions and seeing the truth.
Right now, Feng Lin was very certain that this Patriarch Subhuti was indeed a saint-like existence. Most probably, when this monkey came to acknowledge him as his master in ancient times, he had already seen the future scene through his connection with this monkey.
With the decline of the myths, did those great existences who had the same lifespan as the heavens and earth really disappear?
Right now, Feng Lin was very doubtful about this.
According to the ancient legends, those supreme existences had all jumped out of the three levels and weren't within the five elements. The heavens and earth would decay, but they wouldn't. The universe would perish, but they wouldn't.
During the calamity of the ancient myths and legends, it was unknown what had happened. Most of the divinities had perished, and those great existences at the dao ancestor level had boundless prowess. Would they really perish silently without leaving anything behind?
This was truly frightening to think about!
For a time, Feng Lin found it hard to understand.
…
At this moment, Patriarch Subhuti was silent for a moment before he finally spoke. "I'm glad that we are fated today. Since you know the mystery of the plate, come closer and listen carefully. I'll impart you the dao of longevity. "
Sun Wukong kowtowed to express his gratitude and knelt under the couch.
Feng Lin also quietly listened to the important points.
The patriarch's words were unhurried, coming from an unknown distance, empty and mysterious.
"The Secret Perfect Truth Mystic Art cherishes the cultivation of one's life.
Since the beginning of time, one's Essence, Qi, and Spirit must be firmly guarded and not leaked out.
Do not leak, hide in your body, receive my teachings and prosper.
It was beneficial to memorize the incantation to eliminate evil desires and obtain coolness.
It was cool and bright, so that they could admire the bright moon on the pill platform.
The moon hides the jade rabbit, the sun hides the crow, and the tortoise and snake intertwine.
His life was firm, but he could plant a golden lotus in the fire.
The Five Elements are used in a reversed manner, and one's power will follow that of Buddha and Immortal.
… "
The mnemonic chant was profound, it was the true inheritance of the Great Dao.
Now that the root of the problem was revealed, the profoundness of cultivation was thoroughly understood.
Sun Wukong's heart was filled with blessings. He memorized the incantation and thanked the Founding Master before he left the back door and recited it repeatedly.
The sky in the east began to brighten, and the golden light shone brightly. A great sun slowly rose up, emitting tens of thousands of rays of light, illuminating the world.
It was as if the long path of cultivation had been filled with darkness before, but at this moment, the light had completely shone.
The stone monkey had traversed four great continents and five great oceans, seeking to live a carefree life.
His path was filled with hardships, and he had experienced several tens of years, tasting the sufferings of the mortal world. Right now, his long-cherished wish had finally been fulfilled.
Even with the stone monkey's calm temperament, he couldn't help but howl uncontrollably, filled with endless savagery and complacency.
This art was known as the Grand-grade Heavenly Immortal Art, and it pointed directly to the Great Dao of Heavenly Immortals. There were only over 3,000 words in it, but it corresponded to the 3,000 Great Daos and contained endless profoundness.
After that, the stone monkey immersed himself in it day and night, carefully comprehending the essence of the art.
This monkey was as expected of a natural-born spiritual creature. Its cultivation aptitude was extremely shocking. As it breathed, it silently circulated the art, and the surrounding spiritual qi was stirred, gathering into a whirlpool that encompassed the entire body of the stone monkey.
The area where the monkey was at seemed to have turned into a corporeal black hole. All the pores on its body opened up, and the spiritual qi was crazily plundered, not leaving anything behind.
For a time, even though the spiritual qi in Fangcun Mountain was very dense, it was almost completely sucked dry.
"What's going on?
"Which expert is absorbing the spiritual qi?"
"The spiritual qi plundered is too tyrannical, making it impossible for us to cultivate!"
…
The massive Fangcun Mountain was alarmed. Cultivators kept coming out from all corners, searching for the location where the spiritual qi was gathering.
When they saw the monkey sitting cross-legged on a lone mountain peak, the spiritual qi whistled and formed clouds that seethed like the ocean. It was truly a majestic scene, like a whale swallowing the clouds.
The expressions on their faces were incomparably fascinating.
Humans were the spirit of all living things. They had innate dao bodies and were naturally good at cultivation.
When they saw a monkey becoming a fellow disciple of the same sect as them, as human cultivators, they instinctively rejected the monkey since it wasn't of their race.
But now, when they saw how majestic the monkey was when it was cultivating, they couldn't help but feel emotional.
None of those who could enter Fangcun Mountain were fools. Right now, how could they not be able to tell how great the future of this monkey's cultivation would be?
Unknowingly, their gazes had already changed.
…
Refining essence into qi, refining qi into spirit, refining spirit into void, refining void into dao …
These were the four great realms of ancient cultivation arts.
Feng Lin watched as the monkey cultivated day after day, traveling a thousand miles in a single day. Very soon, it passed the refining essence into qi and reached the realm of refining qi into spirit.
Every bit of improvement was personally experienced by the monkey. Right now, Feng Lin could see all of it.
The experience in the mythological illusion-scape was equivalent to walking on the path of mythological cultivation once again.
The cultivation gains of those ancient deities would also be converted into the foundation of mythological cultivators.
Each level of the four great secret realms had different profoundness, involving the origin connection of matter, body, soul, and energy.
Everyone's body was like a small universe that was independent from the outside world. Their five fingers represented the five elements of heaven and earth, their eyes contained the sun and moon, and their millions of pores represented the number of stars in heaven and earth, absorbing and emitting the power of the stars.
However, how to absorb and emit spiritual qi to temper one's body, allowing one's mortal body to transcend mortality, was a secret cultivation art that had long been lost. It was different from the cultivation path of mythological genes.
The Grand-grade Heavenly Immortal Art was a cultivation art that could lead one to become a heavenly immortal in ancient times. It was extremely profound.
The path to becoming an immortal was extremely difficult and would usually require thousands of years.
Even if ordinary people died of old age, they wouldn't be able to figure out the true essence within.
Only innate spiritual creatures like the stone monkey would be able to quickly grasp it and break through.
What Feng Lin saw was equivalent to Sun Wukong, the ancient almighty existence, personally imparting the art to him.
Gradually, he also felt extremely fatigued. This was because the essence of the art was too profound. Just memorizing and understanding it consumed too much of his mental energy.
He could only stop here!
Feng Lin felt some regret. However, this knowledge was sufficient for him to digest.
Ancient cultivation path?
A wondrous thought appeared in his mind. His consciousness floated and returned to his body.
