After reading it, Jiang Yuebai discovered that the greatest effect of the scent of incense on those who practice Taoism is to accelerate their practice and build a golden body of merit.
Merits can offset one's own bad karma. If one can use the energy of incense to create a golden body of merit, one can easily resist the heavenly calamity, or even avoid the heavenly calamity when advancing.
But to achieve this, the required incense energy may have to be accumulated for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. Once it is interrupted, all the previous efforts will be wasted.
In addition, the scent of incense comes from human desires. These desires are mixed with the scent of incense. The more you take into your body, the more false you become.
During the Void Refining Stage, one needs to cut off one's own delusions. These mortal desires will block the path of cultivation. The only way is to be reborn with a golden body of merit and use the reincarnation to cut off delusions.
It’s a pity that once you are reincarnated, all your past is forgotten. There are too many variables as to whether you can cultivate to the level of your previous life again.
Generally speaking, although incense is good, it is poisonous. If it is not necessary, it is best for those who practice Taoism not to absorb it.
Those mountain spirits and ghosts have no other way to practice, so they choose the way of refining their spirits with incense. As long as the incense is sufficient, the initial stage of practice can make great progress.
Jiang Yuebai certainly would not absorb the energy of the incense herself, but she was greedy and wanted to take advantage of it, so she thought of a compromise.
The five ghosts refined in the "Five Ghosts Sutra" have no consciousness, they are ghost bodies and are controlled by her.
The ghost path is an evil path. Jiang Yuebai doesn't know what the upper realm thinks of the evil and demonic paths yet, but from the few words of the Supreme Elder, he can feel that the upper realm is still led by the righteous path.
Shintoism cultivates the Dharma body, which is similar to the ghost way, but it belongs to the right way.
If the five ghosts are cleansed and turned into righteous Taoist soldiers, there is no need to hide them anymore and they can be used at any time, which is equivalent to having five more thugs.
The most important thing is, if she can refine the five ghosts into a golden body of merit, then when the heavenly calamity comes, can't she just use the five ghosts to block it
Wonderful, wonderful, she is such a genius!
In addition, the book "Method of Refining Spirits with Incense" also includes a method of using the incense gas to refine incense money. In addition to feeding the five ghosts and refining Shinto magic weapons, incense money can also be used as currency in places where Shinto and ghosts are prevalent, to purchase natural treasures that can only be produced by Shinto and ghosts.
In the ghost market of Shura Domain, she had seen ghost cultivators trading with incense money.
After she obtained the Mermaid Pearl, she consulted ancient books and saw a lost ancient elixir recipe. It was made with the Mermaid Pearl as the main ingredient, and Yellow Spring Flower as the auxiliary ingredient. It was soaked in water from the Three Paths River, and more than ten kinds of precious spiritual medicines were added. The water refining method was used to refine the Evil-Breaking Pill, which could increase the success rate of forming a fetus by 30% to 50%, and it also had the effect of resisting the inner demons of the fetus.
The Yellow Spring Flower and the water from the Three Ways River can only be obtained by the ghost monks.
Considering his situation when he was building his foundation and forming the elixir, Jiang Yuebai felt that it was necessary to prepare the elixir to break the evil in advance.
In addition to the Evil-Breaking Pill, the method of forming a baby in the "Five Elements Return to Truth" is different from the ordinary method of forming a baby. There are many things she needs to prepare. The first is a place with sufficient spiritual energy and absolute safety. It would be best if there is someone to help her protect the method.
"Master Fuyi, I miss you so much~"
With her master away, the most reliable people she could find in the upper realm were only Master Fuyi and the Supreme Elder.
Jiang Yuebai made a copy of "The Method of Refining the Spirit with Incense" for herself to keep so that she could look for a better method of incense later. She took out the golden page that was not even as big as her palm and carefully injected her spiritual consciousness into it.
Not long after, Jiang Yuebai felt a broken rune. The rune carried a strange power that connected heaven and earth.
She forcefully erased the mark of incense left by the yellow fox in the rune, leaving only her own mark of spiritual consciousness.
Through the incomplete runes, the perception is magnified.
She "saw" mountains, streams, river valleys and land. The range was not large, but within the range she could perceive, she could clearly feel everything from the ore inside a mountain and the earth's energy under a piece of land to the spider silk on a mushroom under a tree.
and…
Jiang Yuebai had an idea, opened her eyes and lowered her head, and a piece of mountain iron ore appeared in her palm.
She tried again and found that in any area controlled by the incomplete rune, she could take anything with just a thought, including small animals that could not resist her power.
Jiang Yuebai held the gray rabbit's ears and murmured, "It's a pity that I have been fasting for many years, otherwise I would roast it for you. Go ahead."
Yan Hongyu and Xiaolu haven't come back yet, so Jiang Yuebai continues to use the gold page fragments to sense the territory ruled by Huangpizi and Yan Hongyu.
After searching around, we didn't find anything valuable. But if we had this method, we would have dug deep into the ground and collected all the good stuff.
In addition, the Iron Palm Realm has entered a period of destruction, and the highest level of cultivation is only at the peak of the Golden Core Realm. The entire world is extremely poor, and there is nothing left.
Jiang Yuebai withdrew from perception and studied the method of refining incense money. She roughly estimated that the incense energy accumulated by Huangpizi and Yan Hongyu was only enough to refine eight incense coins. She didn't know how many things she could buy, but it was definitely not much.
Before in the Mermaid Country, she had used up more than ten times the power with a small magic.
"A great mountain god, yet so poor!"
When it was almost dawn, a green light rushed in from outside and almost hit Jiang Yuebai's face. The little green lantern turned from green to gold, and it looked very happy.
"My Lord, I have brought this fellow Guanglingjun to you. Come in!"
Yan Hongyu threw the black hair that covered her face behind her. With blood gushing from all seven orifices, she dragged a pale-faced scholar in with a domineering look and pushed him in front of Jiang Yuebai.
The pale-faced scholar had a bruised face and burn marks all over his body, looking horrible.
Yan Hongyu retreated behind Jiang Yuebai, standing with her hands on her hips like a guard, looking arrogant.
Jiang Yuebai was sitting under the statue and couldn't help turning his head to look at her. Yan Hongyu trembled all over, laughed dryly, put down her hands on her waist, and shrank like a quail.
Jiang Yuebai then withdrew his gaze. On one side was Xiaolu floating, and on the other side stood Yan Hongyu. She was sitting in the middle with a majestic figure, and the pale-faced scholar was kneeling in front of her.
The white-faced scholar looked at Xiaolu with fear. Sensing that the yellow-skinned man had been killed, he immediately rushed out of the temple to see who was so bold as to touch his messenger. As a result, he met Xiaolu and Yan Hongyu halfway.
When the evil fire on Xiaolu ignited, he knew that he had offended a powerful person.
I wanted to escape, but I couldn't.
After calming himself down, Guangling lowered his posture and bowed.
"Guangling pays respect to the Immortal. I wonder what business the Immortal has for suddenly visiting my Dongyue Continent?"
Guangling looked at Jiang Yuebai secretly, and Jiang Yuebai also looked at him. She had never seen a ghost that had cultivated into a Dharma body before. Looking at Guangling at this time, he was indeed different from the ordinary gloomy ghosts. The aura on him was not cold at all, but neutral and peaceful with a hint of warmth.
Jiang Yuebai smiled kindly, "Don't be afraid. I just passed by here and lost something. I want to borrow the Golden Book of Sealing from you and your mountain gods. Are you willing? It doesn't matter if you don't want to. We can talk about it in a different way."
Xiaolu took half a step forward, and the evil fire on the lantern burned fiercely.
Guangling shouted in horror, "Yes! Yes!"
Although the golden book of imperial decree is important, it is not as important as life.
After saying that, he quickly took out the golden book of imperial decree from his body, which was half a volume, and presented it with both hands.
Jiang Yuebai raised his hand and absorbed half of the golden book, then used his spiritual sense to investigate, and found that the incense energy inside was enough to easily make a thousand incense coins.
"Now call all your mountain gods, river gods, or whatever gods you have to come to me. Once I find what I'm looking for, I will leave naturally and won't make things difficult for you."
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
