Zhang Yu also picked up his teacup and toasted Tao Dingfu before drinking it.
The so-called subduing of impatience was a cultivation technique that belonged to true cultivators. It was also a sign that some cultivators with unique skills would show after they had cultivated to a certain level.
And after that, they could try to condense their Primordial Spirit.
However, this path was not easy to walk.
Because once this stage was opened, the impatience would rise. It could not be suppressed by cultivation or mana, but had to be subdued by heart.
Here, one could read books, polish one's skills, or be in seclusion to harmonize one's Qi. In short, there was no fixed path. Only cultivators themselves could find the right way. Sometimes, it would be over as soon as they came to a realization. Sometimes, it would be difficult to extricate oneself from a mental obstacle. Furthermore, the impatience would erupt continuously, so it had to be subdued many times.
The more times one subdued, the more benefits one would gain in the future. It could be said that if one could achieve the Nine Transformations, not only would it not be difficult to form the Primordial Spirit, but one's future would also be limitless.
However, if he wanted to be able to practice it to its fullest, the main difficulty was that this method took a lot of time.
For example, the first time one subdued the impatience, it might only take a few years at the beginning. Then, the second time, because one's cultivation was deep and one's temperament had been polished, the time required would be many times more. To achieve the Nine Transformations, one would need at least 2000 years.
However, the problem was that ordinary cultivators in the Primordial Spirit Realm might not have such a long lifespan. This did not include the years they had spent cultivating before. Hence, it would not be bad if one could subdue it six or seven times.
The bigger problem was that those with deep accumulations might take a longer time in the beginning, which would cause them to take a longer time in the future. Therefore, this was a very contradictory choice. In the end, those with shallow accumulations might not be able to obtain as much merit as those with shallow accumulations.
However, nine was the number of perfection. If one did not succeed, the result would not be considered complete. One would only be able to take what they had accumulated and would not be able to enjoy the benefits.
Even so, such an opportunity was hard to come by.
It was because Tao Dingfu had been using fire-type techniques that he was able to cultivate. This was his own destiny, and he could not give it up.
Tao Dingfu said, "Junior Brother, you don't have to worry about me. I chose this path because I have confidence in it. I also have a way to deal with that fire."
Zhang Yu nodded. He knew that there was a sliver of Heaven's Secret that could be found in this Cultivation Method. If one could find the right way to subdue the fire, put aside the gains and losses, and face one's own heart calmly, or with the help of other methods, it could greatly shorten the time needed.
For Tao Dingfu to make such a choice, he must have made some preparations. But the problem was that no one could calculate all the changes in the Nine Transformations, so in the end, it still depended on fate.
He asked, "Senior Martial Brother, how long do you think you'll need to cultivate this technique?"
Tao Dingfu thought about it and said, "I've found a way to limit the Origin Technique to one year. If everything goes smoothly, it might take five to six hundred years."
When he spoke, his expression was very relaxed. Although he also wanted to succeed this time, he also knew that such things also depended on fate and could not be too forceful.
Zhang Yu said, "There's something I need to tell Senior Martial Brother. Everyone knows about the matter of Yuanxia, and Senior Martial Brother must have heard about it too. Yuanxia may come to attack our Tianxia in the near future. I don't know how long this battle will be delayed, but it most likely won't be delayed for five hundred years. The sooner Senior Martial Brother succeeds, the better.
If Yuanxia wins this battle, we will be destroyed, and it will be meaningless for anyone to cultivate. If I win, the winner will also be able to obtain the benefits of overturning the world. The higher the cultivation, the more benefits. This kind of opportunity cannot be missed. "
Tao Dingfu said, "So there's such a reason?" He thought about it, and his expression could not help but become more serious.
Subduing the fire was the best method of the True Dao. Once this achievement was over, the future was indeed promising. However, everything depended on the general trend. Even cultivators existed in this world. When the world was in trouble, how could they cultivate in peace?
Moreover, he was a cultivator of Tianxia. It was even more impossible for him to turn a blind eye to the attack on Tianxia. As for the benefits, if Tianxia could win, there would naturally be benefits. There was no need to think too much about it now.
Zhang Yu saw that he was thinking, and said, "Senior Martial Brother, have you thought of other ways?"
"Other ways?"
Tao Dingfu thought about it, and said, "Junior Martial Brother, are you talking about the Boundless World? I have also considered this place, but it's just another life there. My cultivation can't be accumulated, and I can't really subdue the fire. Moreover, the state of mind is different, and the fire is different. It's useless to go there. "The fire was difficult to subdue.
The nature of fire was difficult to suppress. Other than the most fundamental cultivation, the key lay in the word "heart". When the heart was moved, the fire would rise. With more experience, the intensity of the fire would be different, and the nature of the heart would also be different. Therefore, even if one did not talk about accumulation, one could pass through the lower levels, but when one returned, it would be impossible to repeat the same path again.
Zhang Yu shook his head, and said, "That's not necessarily the case." He looked at Tao Dingfu, and said, "Senior Martial Brother Tao, have you heard of the method of cultivating the fetus?"
Tao Dingfu's expression became more serious, and said, "I've heard of it. It seems to be the insertion of essence into the human fetus. However, this method harms human relationships, and is evil."
Zhang Yu said, "If we talk about the original method, it's not only evil, but also evil. Later, the Huanyang school took it a step further, and did not place the fetus in the body, but in the body of a cultivator. However, I can change it a little, and remove the evil. Borrowing the skin and bones, I can turn it into a beneficial method."
Tao Dingfu asked curiously, "Junior Martial Brother, are you saying that this method can help me?"
Zhang Yu said, "I won't say too much about the specifics. Recently, there's a place where I'm compatible with Tianxia. I can use the method of supernatural powers to send the essence, primordial spirit, and Qi that Senior Martial Brother has cultivated all your life into, and use an external body as a vessel. This way, Senior Martial Brother can rely on this to cultivate there.
Because that place is different from my Tianxia, even if Senior Martial Brother cultivates there for hundreds or thousands of years, it won't affect Tianxia. "
This method was also because he had perfected the Dao. His doppelganger could go there, and so he could carry the essence of others there. Those with lower cultivation would not be able to do this at all.
Tao Dingfu immediately understood what he meant. The most important thing for a cultivator was the essence, primordial spirit, and Qi. Without these, the body was just an empty shell. However, if these were inserted into this world, with the shell as a vessel, they could also subdue the raging fire caused by cultivation there.
However, he was also clear that this was not his body after all. Moreover, in a foreign world, some of his original plans might not work, and there might even be some hindrances.
However, how could there be anything perfect in this world?
Moreover, cultivating in Tianxia might not be completely without problems.
Zhang Yu said, "Senior Martial Brother, you can take your time to think about it."
Tao Dingfu was very carefree and said, "There's no need. How can I not appreciate Junior Martial Brother's good intentions? It's settled then."
He had always been a very open-minded person. He would not reject Zhang Yu's help. If there was a burden, he would find a way to repay it in the future. As for what would happen if he failed, if Zhang Yu did not mention it, he would not ask.
Zhang Yu nodded. At this moment, he pointed his finger and a jade scroll appeared. He said, "I've recorded some things about this method and the situation in that world. Senior Martial Brother can prepare first."
Tao Dingfu took it and looked at it. He said, "I need half a day to prepare."
Zhang Yu said, "There's no need to rush. That world also needs to evolve. Let's set it for five days first."
Tao Dingfu said cheerfully, "Then it's settled."
Zhang Yu said, "Then I'll come find Senior Martial Brother in five days." He raised his sleeves and bowed, then walked out.
After Tao Dingfu sent him off, he called Dan Fu in and explained some things in detail. Dan Fu did not ask too much. He would do whatever his teacher told him to do.
He could feel that Tao Dingfu was about to do something dangerous, but this was not something he could ask. He just had to do what a disciple should do and let his teacher dispel any worries.
Zhang Yu came outside and looked at the void above. Yuan Xia would most likely gather forces to attack in these few days. The Dao technique on his body was becoming clearer and clearer. It would not take long for it to be completed.
Right now, in that world domain, if it was only a thousand years of evolution, it wouldn't take long at all. The Peach Stabilizing Talisman would only take an instant at most. If everything went smoothly, he would be able to see the Dao after this.
Five days passed in the blink of an eye.
He came to the hut again and saw Tao Dingfu standing there alone. He asked, "Senior Martial Brother, are you ready?"
Tao Dingfu smiled and said, "Yes, I'm ready."
Zhang Yu nodded. With a thought, a golden talisman descended from the sky and landed in front of Tao Dingfu. He said, "Senior Martial Brother, you can go with this talisman. I'll take care of things here."
Tao Dingfu took it and thanked him, "Thank you, Junior Martial Brother."
Then, he walked a few steps and opened his sleeves. He sat on the prepared praying mat and held the talisman.
Without any hesitation, he channeled his mana into the talisman. A gentle golden light suddenly bloomed and enveloped his entire body. After a while, his figure gradually became more and more illusory. It was as if he had become a faint shadow.
The golden light also retracted in an instant, as if it had all gathered into the golden talisman. In the end, only the talisman was left floating there. Everything quieted down.
Zhang Yu looked on calmly. After a few breaths, the golden talisman trembled and slowly descended. It landed on Tao Dingfu's hands. He suddenly opened his eyes. There seemed to be a flash of fire in his eyes. A spark appeared between his eyebrows and then fell. It turned into a line and fell straight down his chest.
His entire body was shrouded in a layer of dazzling golden-red brilliance. The brilliance flickered nine times in a row before it dissipated. His figure also slowly returned to its original form from its illusory state.
Zhang Yu opened his mouth and said, "Senior Martial Brother, congratulations on passing the Dao stage."
Tao Dingfu smiled. He stood up and waved his sleeves. He sighed slightly and said, "Passing the Nine Transformations, it's a narrow escape." As he spoke, the long sword on his back also made a sound.
It was not that there was no danger in that world. Although it was easy to control the anger in his heart, there were also external dangers. He could not find anyone to help him and could only rely on himself. To be able to pass through it, he really relied on some luck.
Zhang Yu said, "Senior Martial Brother, once you pass this stage, it will not be difficult to cultivate the Nascent Soul. Your future cultivation will be better than others. I will wait for Senior Martial Brother on the upper level of the Clear Sky Dome."
Tao Dingfu laughed. Then, his expression became serious and he said, "I won't say anything unnecessary. After I succeed, I will fight the enemies together with Junior Martial Brother!"
