Atlas of Heaven and Man.

Chapter 1012: One thought reveals the true meaning, and asks for eternal life
The light in the vertical eye is the gathering of Chen Chuan's spiritual consciousness, which will form this kind of external manifestation when released through the spiritual phase. At this moment, as the light penetrates the light fog and continues to go upwards, a hole is formed at the top.

It can be seen that the light mist is not gathered and unchanged, but layer upon layer. Every layer seems to have a change and is like ripples in the water, which spread out in circles after being impacted.

Chen Chuan stared there, thinking that it might be the levels of heaven that the mystic had mentioned, and this time he was just trying to find the gate to the top level, and he would not ask about the rest.

Due to the above changes, he now felt as if his whole body was constantly being lifted up.

And there seemed to be various different infections coming among them, but these things just appeared and then disappeared quickly, as if they were left behind.

There is no such thing as distance in this world. In fact, if his spirit wants to reach the highest gate of heaven, he must use layers of gates as springboards, climb up one by one, and finally reach there.

In other words, he left as soon as he came into contact with these heavenly gates, and soon went to the next one. Even if the infectious objects in those heavenly gates reacted and chased after him, they could not trace back to him. This created the feeling that he was rising higher and higher, and all the infectious objects were left behind.

If this situation were to be put into the words of the ancient mystical religion, wouldn't it be about breaking through numerous barriers and crossing to the upper stream?
But if we stop here, we might be entangled by the infected things in a certain level, and it would be almost impossible to go up again. We must rush up in one breath.

Fortunately, the preparations in the previous two stages were not useless. They were prepared for this moment. In addition, he had a deep foundation, abundant energy reserves, and some ritual blessings, so he did not encounter any obstacles here.

When he still had strength to spare, he finally "saw" it. At the end, he could see a faint purple aura.

Just like when he was looking for the Six Yang Gold, he felt the presence here and came here. However, the barrier between the two still existed. It was just different from last time. This time, even if he didn't use the Snow Lord Sword, he could still use his spiritual power to force his way in, but doing so would consume more energy.

Fortunately, he doesn't need to break it forcefully at the moment.

At this moment, there was a whimpering sound coming from all around, followed by a series of colorful creatures flying towards him.

He immediately knew that this was an infection, which was what the mystics called "evil spirits". He did not take it lightly, and with a thought, the platinum-colored spiritual fire instantly covered Lingxiang's entire body.

Those things came over and hit his spiritual image, sparks flew everywhere, and the outermost layer of spiritual fire was actually knocked off directly.

Chen Chuan's eyes narrowed slightly. Under normal circumstances, even if he was attacked by a fighter, it would not be possible to lose so much at once. The intensity of this impact was completely incomparable to the previous infections.

However, the moment he was attacked, he felt his body suddenly paused and he was actually sinking into it.

When his field comes into contact with this field, these infections and attacks will follow. And precisely because of these infections, he does not need to break through the barriers and can go directly here, because this is the gathering place of these evil spirits.

While immersed in this, he felt waves of abundant and rich energy that he had never felt before pouring into his spiritual state. In theory, this was the highest-end energy that a practitioner at this stage could withstand. It could greatly enhance his spiritual state and at the same time prompt his alienated tissue to undergo a further transformation.

But when he got here, the number of evil spirits suddenly increased, and wherever he looked, there were densely packed with these things.

This thing has only a head with long hair, and its body seems to be made up of colorful mist. It looks very much like some monster in the mythology of old times. It should not have a fixed appearance. It is very likely that he used the methods of Xuanjiao and accepted some of the concepts of Xuanjiao, so the image that appears is closer to the image described by Xuanjiao.

These things were now constantly rotating around him, and from time to time they would crash into the spiritual image, knocking away some of the spiritual fire.

Although these gaps were filled almost instantly, these attacks would consume his energy every moment, and if he was careless at all, he might be broken through.

What he needs to do is to absorb the energy here as quickly as possible, so that his spiritual form can become stronger and have stronger resistance.

This means we are racing against time with these evil spirits. If we fall behind even a little, we will be defeated and no longer be able to gain a foothold here. Of course, the most likely scenario is that we will be completely devoured by these infections.

The longer he stays here, the more he will gain, so he has to hold on as long as possible.

With a thought, a set of bright armor appeared above the spirit, with rings flying between the shoulders and arms. He held a knife in one hand and a mace in the other, and raised his weapons to swing at the evil spirits. Every time he hit something, a cloud of smoke would explode, but more evil spirits would pounce on him later.

At the same time, the spirit was also absorbing a large amount of purple air into the body, and quickly transforming it into the energy needed by the alienated tissues. The alienated tissues absorbed it eagerly and continued to improve at an extremely fast speed. The changes here in turn promoted the spirit. Instead of collapsing under the impact of the evil spirit, it became stronger.

This rapid progress began to slow down after more than ten days, and the progress has been getting slower and slower since then.

Chen Chuan discovered this problem. He could clearly feel that he was still a little short of his own transformation.

If he could continue to exist here, he could actually slowly improve and reach that level. But the problem was that he was consuming the energy stored in his body every moment. It could be said that the rapid progress in the past was all exchanged for this.

In addition, the rituals outside to bless and stabilize the rift could not continue forever, so he could not wait like this.

We must change our thinking.

The mystic didn't tell him how to deal with it at this time, but through the first and second stage preparations, he had actually told him the answer.

He took a look at the evil spirits, and decided to let go of his defenses, letting them in and becoming fuel for his progress. After thinking about it, he let go of some of his defenses and let some of them come in. In an instant, an evil spirit suddenly drilled into the spirit, followed by another one, and more and more evil spirits came in.

At this moment, the energy that had been absorbed and was gradually dwindling poured into the body again, and the alienated tissue became active again.

However, all this was obtained at the cost of the soul almost sacrificing itself. One could see that the place where the soul was infected by the evil spirit was gradually undergoing some changes, and it seemed as if another consciousness had emerged, and was about to break away.

The faces of those evil spirits underwent some changes. They became somewhat like him, and their expressions showed some changes of joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.

But after a moment, his body suddenly burst into an extremely bright light, and these evil spirits were touched by the bright light and instantly turned into flying smoke.

However, he used the Great Bright Light Method to dispel the evil spirits before they collapsed. However, before the spiritual image could fully recover, more evil spirits surged up.

And then, it was this repeated confrontation. Whenever he felt that his spiritual state was unstable, he would use the Great Bright Light Style to dispel the infection.

However, even he gradually felt some strain, because this attack was endless and existed at all times, and he needed to tap every bit of strength in his body to resist it. Even with the blessing of the ritual, he still felt the pressure.

But even so, this forward momentum slowed down again after the initial rapid progress.

Chen Chuan realized that doing so would not solve the problem. This might be related to himself, because he had broken through the limit with an unprecedented foundation. Perhaps others would have achieved a breakthrough at this point long ago, but he was unable to achieve complete success because he needed more.

He stood in the spiritual state, recalling what Xuanshi had said.

"Plant the golden lotus, light the purple lamp, and refine away the hidden evil...

He raised his head and looked at the tattered exterior, the evil spirits rushing around in it, and the vast purple air in front of him. Gradually, a light appeared in his eyes.

Xuanshi did not specify how to do it, he just used a term in Xuanjiao. He did not fully understand it at first, so he originally referred to the method of Wansong Company, which was to swallow and attract strange essences and external energy, cultivate spiritual appearance, and then establish a connection with a certain level of heaven.

But he understood now.

What is the point of simply absorbing energy? What is the point of establishing simple connections?

What he needed to do was to completely occupy this place, turn this piece of heaven into his own, completely merge into one, and no longer allow any foreign gods to covet it.

Once he leaves this place, the countless evil spirits around him will have no place to rely on and will no longer exist, and he will no longer be infected by them.

When he realized this, he suddenly felt enlightened. His expression became serious, he sat cross-legged in the air, closed his eyes slightly, and made a Xuanjiao finger gesture from the Taibai realm. Outside his body, the spirit also made the same gesture.

At this moment, the second me closed my upper body, and the platinum-colored spiritual fire surged outward like a blaze, emitting bursts of light. Wherever it passed, the filthy and evil spirits were dissipated.

Looking from afar, he looked like a blooming lotus, and beneath him was an endless stream of purple air.

A moment later, a point of platinum-colored light fell from his vertical eyes and fell directly into the purple air. At first, there seemed to be no movement, but after a while, this level of the sky shook violently, as if it was ignited, and the whole thing began to boil and surge, and swirled around that point of spiritual fire. After a moment, it quickly spread towards him along the fire, and entered his body one by one, and finally entangled on the alienated tissue.

At this moment, as if receiving a great stimulation, the alienated tissue in his body began to transform at an accelerated rate, faster and more violently than all previous stages.

And those countless evil spirits that originally surrounded him, now seemed to dissipate like light smoke. Only some that had clung to his spiritual form, biting and grabbing with their hands, clinging to it tightly, refusing to let go.

After an unknown amount of time, those alienated organizations seemed to have crossed a certain limit that shackled them, and there was a sudden shock, and the originally intense and positive changes slowed down.

A hint of purple light appeared between Chen Chuan's eyebrows. At this time, he slowly opened his eyes, his eyes flashed, and the evil spirits clinging to him suddenly let out a wail and then disappeared.

His eyes fell to the ground below him, and his spiritual fire and purple energy almost became one.

The so-called sky bridge is right there, it is yourself, once it is built, you will be able to cross.

As he lowered his gaze, he saw a sentence appearing on the cloak: "Golden Lotus Watching Purple Lamp, Connecting Heaven to Fly God Back". After staring for a while, he felt something in his heart. He pondered for a moment, stretched out his hand and wrote a line of words on it:

"One thought reveals the true meaning and asks for eternal life and safety!"
