The Desolate Era

The Desolate Era

I don't know. Please tell me, father. Ning said respectfully.


In fact, after reading so many books, Ning had studied them for a long time. But as a four-year-old, there was no need for him to appear so intelligent.


“Then I will tell you and let you understand.” Yichuan's voice was like ice. “First, let's talk about the seven main stages.”


First stage, Houtian. A hundred years old.


Second stage, Xiantian. Two hundred years old


Third stage, Zifu, ‘Violet’ Palace. At this rate, one would be summoned as a Zifu Disciple. Five hundred years old.


Fourth stage, Wanxiang, ‘Manifestation’. At this level, one would be called as Wanxiang Adept. Eight hundred years old.


Fifth stage, Primal. It can be called Daoist Primal.


Sixth stage, Void. Can be referred to as ‘Land Abadi’, or ‘Eternal Earth’. At the next level of the Void stage, heavenly tribulation would test them out. If they fail, then they will die and their spirit will be extinguished. If Primal's body was destroyed but managed to escape with his soul, then he would become a ‘Immortal Loose’, whose strength was roughly equivalent to ‘Earth God’.


The seventh stage, Celestial Immortal. Only at this stage could one be considered to have ascended beyond the Three Realms and no longer be formed by the Five Elements!


Yichuan looked at Ning after speaking. She wanted to see an amazed and surprised expression on her son's face .. but Ning just listened carefully.


You said you wanted to train to become an Immortal. So, I want you to know how difficult it is to become an Immortal. Ji Yichuan's voice sank. “The first obstacle to becoming an Immortal .. is to pass from the Houtian stage to the Xiantian stage!”


What does Xiantian mean? Only the life forms that were naturally born by heaven and earth could be described as Xiantian life forms. In the distant Fiendgod Era, there were Fiendgods who were born naturally by heaven and earth and who possessed tremendous power from their birth. In addition, there are people who are reborn in the Heavenly Realm as ‘Dewa’ or as ‘Asura’. These Devas and Asuras were all born by nature itself, and thus according to their nature, they were Xiantian life forms. This made it extremely fast for them to practice, as only Xiantian life forms could train to become an Immortal!


It is impossible for man to practice being an Abadibut Heaven always leaves a thread of hope. Thus, in the past, the benevolent elders created a series of training techniques that allowed the bodies of ordinary people to become similar to the bodies of Xiantian living beings. Only then did it become possible for an ordinary person to train to become an Immortal.


But for an ordinary person to become a Xiantian life form was contrary to the laws of the universe, making it extremely difficult! His success rate was lower than one in ten thousand! Tell me, is it hard or not?


Ning kept listening.


Xiantian life form? If not for the great disturbance in the Netherworld Kingdom, he might have already reincarnated and become a Deva in the Heavenly Realm. Naturally, it meant that he was already a Xiantian living being. However, right now he was a human and indeed, for a human to reach the Xiantian stage was an extremely difficult path.


“The second great obstacle to becoming an Immortal .. from the Xiantian stage to the Zifu stage!”


Only by establishing Zifu, also known as ‘Violet’ Palace, can one continue to train as an Immortal. Setting up ‘Ungu’ Palace is like laying ‘pondation’ when building a house, or sowing fields to harvest crops. Violet Palace was a crop field and was the core of an Immortal. This was the basic foundation of the path of Immortals! Only after one had actually built ‘Violet’ Palace within his body could one begin the route to becoming an Immortal. And only then can one be given the title of a Zifu Disciple! For a Xiantian expert to set up a ‘Violet Palace’maybe one in a thousand will succeed. Tell me, is it hard or not?


Ning nodded.


Is correct. That hard.


At the same time, he continued to listen carefully. The Ji clan books of the Western Prefecture only described these two obstacles. They did not explain the obstacles after that.


“To build Zifu and become an Immortal, one must have a world-shaking power.”


But becoming an Immortal was, in essence, contrary to the laws of the universe. So, from the day you step onto the path of Eternity, in other words from the day you built your Zifu, you will be tested every three hundred years. Every nine hundred years, you will experience great tribulation. So, as the saying goes, ‘Three centuries of disaster, nine centuries of misery. Catastrophe is easy to avoid, but misery is hard to avoid!’ Trials every three centuries, and tribulations every nine ... After starting the path to becoming an Immortal, this will continue forever, unless you become a Celestial Immortal. Otherwise, ‘Three Disasters, Nine Tribulations’ will be your eternal destiny.


Three Disasters, Nine Tribulations?


Three centuries of disaster, nine centuries of misery. Catastrophe is easy to avoid, but misery is hard to avoid?


Ning was really surprised by this. Unless one becomes a Celestial Immortal, everyone who trains on the path of Immortals must face the test every three centuries.


.


Ji Yichuan and Yuchi Snow looked at their son. Right now, there was a look of shock and disbelief on their son's face. Seeing the stunned look, Yichuan nodded slightly. He finally managed to surprise the little bastard.


Our son is very small. Why did you tell him all that? Snow said sadly.


“Mother.” Ji Ning raised his head, a smile on his lips. “It's fine.”


Ji Yichuan looked at him in surprise.


“Dad.” Ji Ning laughed. From mortal to Xiantian, from Xiantian to Zifu. These two obstacles are very difficult. ‘Three Disasters, Nine Tribulations’ is very far and very far away. I don't have to worry about them at all for now.


Mm. Yichuan nodded. Your attitude is not bad. You're correct. Right now, you don't need to think about becoming a Zifu Disciple. That's too far for you. In the vast area around Mount Swallow, the strongest people in countless tribes and in the Ji clan were only at the Zifu Disciple level. The path of Immortals was a difficult one. Even our great Great Xia Dynasty will probably only produce one Celestial Immortal within a million years.


Ning nodded gently.


“Do you still want to train to become an Immortal?” Yichuan looked at Ning.


“Ya.” Ning nodded.


Yichuan nodded small. If the boy was frightened just by hearing about this, Yichuan would be disappointed. What she didn't know was ... how could Ning possibly be scared this easily? Nothing is without risk. Even walking down the street, one might be killed by a rock falling from the sky. Even while eating, a person may choke to death. Training to become an Immortal would naturally be extremely risky. It would be weird if it wasn't.


“But ..” Yichuan frowned. You're too young, and the training techniques are very complicated. If I send a high grade Immortal training technique to you and you train in the wrong direction, it will harm your body. But ordinary Immortal techniques were not worth studying


“Dad.” says Ning. “I want to learn Body Refining Technique Fiendgod.”


“Oh? You know about Body Refining? Yichuan was very surprised, and Snow started to laugh. It seems like our son has read some books. He even knew that there were two main lines of Immortal training.


There are two main paths of training to become an Immortal.


The first one is in Ki Refining, purifying ki energy! 99% of those who were trained to become Immortal chose this path. This path allowed one to use many mysterious Eternal treasures, create intricate golems, control a large number of deadly magical beasts, develop powerful magical formations, and, and also using some very vile techniques.in other words, this is a very noble and profound path.


Another street is in Body Refining.


Supposedly, the three Realms each gave birth to many Fiendgods. All are born of nature itself and are strong from birth! As for the creator of the universe, Pangu, he himself was the strongest of them, the Fiendgod of Primordial Chaos. He also had the most powerful body and thus, a number of elders managed to develop this ‘Fiendgod Body Refining’ technique, which allowed the practitioners to have a body equivalent to Fiendgods. An indestructible body, possessing boundless strength, having three heads and six arms, regenerating from a drop of blood, was immortal and would not die.This was all included in the Fiendgod Body Refining method.


That said, at the same level of development, the Fiendgod Body Refiner would be able to suppress his opponent completely!


Body Refining is a hundred times harder than Ki Refining. Yichuan said seriously. The Fiendgod Body Refining Method allowed one to possess the power of a Fiendgod. How strong is that? It's hard, it's hard


Dad, first I'll train the body. After that, I will develop Ki Ning said. Both of these training methods can be developed simultaneously. At that time, I will take whatever path I am most good at, which will be my main path. Besides, aren't you afraid that I'm too young and that ki training will damage my blood vessels? The Fiendgod Body Refining Technique did not have this risk.


Yichuan and Snow glanced at each other.


It seemed that their son had thought of everything. Indeed, the Fiendgod Body Refining technique mainly trains the entire muscles and organs in the body. As for the blood vessels? It has nothing to do with it at all. It should be known that Innate Fiendgods come in all kinds, and their blood vessels are completely different from human veins. The virtues of those ancestors had developed the Fiendgod Body Refining technique of the Fiendgods body. Naturally, they ignored the blood vessels.


“Good!” Yichuan nodded. The Fiendgod Body Refining Method was extremely valuable. Our Ji Clan in total has nineteen books on the Refining of the Fiendgod Body spread across our five prefectures. I'll let you choose the one you want to train!


“Ya.” Ning is so excited.


“Black Boy.” Yichuan shouted outwards.


A black haired middle-aged man appeared from outside. His eyes faintly shone with a red light, and his eyes were rather long. It was the human form of that huge black python.


“Uncle Black.” Ning hurriedly called. Two years ago, when he was born, he learned that this black-haired man was a Diremonster who had been trained to reach the ‘ stage of Xiantian’ life form. In general, animals that have reached a certain level of intelligence will be called ‘monster’. After starting to absorb the natural energy, as they did not have any special training techniques, it was even harder for them to practice than humans. Only when they broke through to become a Xiantian living being would they have the ability to transform themselves!


The black-haired man smiled and nodded. “Yichuan, what do you need?”


“I want to trouble you to travel to the library.” said Yichuan. Bring the short version of the nineteen training methods of the Fiendgod Body Refining technique here. Ning wanted to use it.


“Ning want to use it?” The black-haired man looked at Ning while laughing. A person who trains with the Fiendgod Body Refining would have the power of a Fiendgod. It seems Ning is quite ambitious.


A hua!


The black haired man disappeared into thin air.


Ning took a deep breath while waiting. Uncle Black is telling the truth. He is ambitious. The first reason was because he knew that because of his youth, his father probably would not allow him to train in Ki Refining. Studying itself? Ning has no confidence. The second was that the Fiendgod Body Refining method had some very powerful benefits. Killing a Fiendgod practitioner was more than a thousand times harder than killing a practitioner! The Fiendgod Body Refining expert, on the same level, can completely dominate the Ki Refining expert!


They have strong self-defense abilities and strong strength. Just based on these two things alone, Ning liked the Fiendgod Body Refining method.


Hu!


A gentle breeze appeared out of nowhere, and a black-haired man appeared in the middle of the hall, a smile on his face. “Nineteen copies short version of the Fiendgod Body Refining technique.”


“Ning.” Yichuan looked at his son. The short version only had the first part of each Immortal training technique, combined with the summary and description of the technique. Take a good look and see which one you want.


The black-haired man placed nineteen books in front of Ning.


Each book is very thin. Anyway, this is a short version. Even if they were stolen, they would not inflict any harm to the Ji clan. After all, they were unlikely to place an entire precious copy of Immortal training in the library. However, even this shortened version of Fiendgod Body Refining was not freely available for others to see. This was why Yichuan sent the black-haired man to travel.


“Nineteen thick books.”


Ning started reading in earnest.
