Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

The dilemmas faced by cultivators at this realm are really not much of a challenge for me.

”Please speak, Fellow Daoist.”

Upon the elder speaking, Shen Yuan nodded slightly and said, ”There is a junior in my clan who has crafted a Secret Realm using the Five Elements Reincarnation.”

”Currently, as he attempts to make the Secret Realm become a realm independent from the main world, he has encountered some issues. I, unfortunately, am not well-versed in this matter. Could you provide some guidance, Fellow Daoist?”

The elder across from him was visibly silent upon hearing this.

For a long while—

His voice trembled a bit, asking, ”May I inquire... what is the cultivation level of the Senior?”

Senior?

Shen Yuan’s heart was momentarily stunned, almost bursting into laughter.

That old man... I just asked about the issues Shen Xiubai is facing with crafting the Five Elements Secret Realm, why has his attitude suddenly changed so drastically?

”There is an unwritten rule at the Nine Elements Exiled Immortal Temple; it’s best for cultivators who come here not to ask about others’ realms, as it is considered offensive.”

Shen Yuan replied indifferently.

Yet, this time it wasn’t that he was feigning mystery; rather, he truly didn’t know if there were realms above the Nascent Soul, nor did he understand the abilities of beings within such realms.

The more one speaks, the easier it is to reveal the truth.

Upon hearing this, the elder nodded repeatedly and said, ”It is indeed my... my impudence.”

No wonder his attitude continued to change.

Crafting a Secret Realm is inherently a technique possessed by Nascent Soul True Monarch cultivators.

Yet, the Secret Realms crafted by Nascent Soul True Monarchs cannot sever themselves from the main world. Put plainly, such Secret Realms are merely spaces forcibly designated by the Nascent Soul True Monarch using their understanding of the Law to keep hidden.

Ultimately, these Secret Realms still exist within the main world, like leaves on a towering tree.

But Shen Yuan mentioned just now that his clan’s junior crafted a Secret Realm and is attempting to sever it from the main world; this is clearly a feat beyond the reach of a Nascent Soul True Monarch.

At least with his current cultivation, he cannot craft a Secret Realm independent from the main world.

And the junior from the opposing family clan could achieve this, naturally leading the elder to think Shen Yuan’s strength must have reached a level deserving of reverence.

”Senior...”

”Within the Nine Elements Exiled Immortal Temple, everyone is ’Fellow Daoist;’ let’s dispense with the term ’Senior,’ Fellow Daoist.”

Shen Yuan interrupted the elder’s statement.

Being called ’Senior’ by a doughty cultivator felt far too awkward.

Upon hearing this, the elder quickly corrected himself and said, ”Fellow Daoist’s clan junior encountered a problem I really don’t know how to resolve.”

”From what I know, for a Secret Realm to sever from the main world and become an independent realm, it must first have a stable system of laws.”

”However, you mentioned earlier that your junior crafted the Secret Realm using the Five Elements Reincarnation. So I believe the Five Elements Law should support a small world’s operations.”

”But an independent small world still requires an origin to sustain its operation; otherwise, relying solely on the cultivator’s energy cannot sustain it.”

Pausing, the elder pondered for a few beats and continued, ”Yet, a world’s origin is exceedingly rare.”

”I have heard there is a great world named Cangmin Realm that was shattered by a supreme force in the past, with scattered world origins left behind. If Fellow Daoist is truly interested, you may have a chance at Wuxiang Zen Temple.”

”Those Zen cultivators might possess information about Cangmin Realm.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuan discreetly remembered all the elder’s words.

Though the elder’s speech seemed not to offer any crucial information, Shen Yuan still captured many useful details within.

Firstly, this elder is indeed not a cultivator from the Cangmin Sea Region.

Secondly, the Cangmin Sea Region seems to have become a legendary existence within the Cultivation Realm.

The cause of this situation might be due to the vast distances between great worlds, making it difficult for cultivators to interact with other great worlds in daily life.

The third point is also the most crucial.

The elder mentioned a ”Wuxiang Zen Temple,” very likely a powerful and renowned force.

This Wuxiang Zen Temple, akin to the Tingfeng Valley of Danzhou, is exceedingly adept at gathering information.

Keeping these thoughts to himself, preparing for future analysis upon return, Shen Yuan spoke again, ”Where my clan is situated, there is no well-developed path of Body Cultivation; how much does Fellow Daoist understand about Body Cultivation?”

This question was asked because he seeks to understand the path forward in Body Cultivation.

”Is ’Impeccable Golden Body’ a mandatory phase for Body Cultivation?”

The elder laughed immediately upon hearing these questions.

”Fellow Daoist has indeed asked the right person.”

”To be honest, Fellow Daoist, I am precisely a cultivator of Dual Cultivation of Body and Spirit, with a profound understanding and insight into the path of Body Cultivation.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuan felt a surge of delight in his heart, slightly bowing in salute, ”Please, Fellow Daoist, enlighten me.”

The elder quickly returned the salute.

”I wouldn’t dare call it enlightenment; however, I can certainly share a little with Fellow Daoist.”

”The so-called path of Body Cultivation is about seeking internally without reliance on external objects, where willpower is steel, and blood is fuel.”

”Body Cultivators establish a solid foundation, refine their internal organs, and hone their physical form until the body generates divine power. Then, they begin to comprehend the grand Way of the world, engraving the markings of the Way upon their own flesh and blood, reaching immortality of the flesh and extended lifespan.”

”According to ancient texts, a Great Success Body Cultivator may sanctify the body, cultivate a world within, nurture divinity in acupoints, merging the flesh with the grand Way, and achieve the state of Three Bodies in One...”

The eloquence of the elder indeed gave Shen Yuan a great insight into the path of Body Cultivation.

”Considering all this, I should certainly discuss thoroughly with the old master and Xu Zhan once I return.”

”Fortunately, the two of them have yet to tread too many roundabout paths.”

As he pondered over this, suddenly in the distance a golden beam of light flew swiftly.
