The so-called artistic conception, "meaning" refers to perception, and "realm" refers to field.
A Taoist understands the Great Way of Heaven and Earth, uses his or her own insights to resonate with the Great Way of Heaven and Earth, causes the power of the Great Tao to appear and condense around him, and builds a realm that conforms to his own Great Tao. This is the artistic conception of a Taoist.
Swordsmanship has the artistic conception of swordsmanship, and magic also has the artistic conception of magic. Any skill that is cultivated to the point where it is "close to the Tao" can create a corresponding artistic conception. Of course, artistic conception can also be divided into strong and weak realms. As the understanding of the Tao progresses from shallow to deep, the artistic conception will naturally change from weak to strong.
At the same time, the artistic conception is constructed by the power of the great road, and naturally has the attributes of the five elements. This leads to the creation and restraint of the five elements, which will also play a very important role in the competition of artistic conception. If a person's artistic conception is of the fire element, it will be restrained by the artistic conception of the water element which is of similar power. Of course, if the power of the artistic conception is very different, it is like pouring a bowl of water into the sea of fire. The little water will naturally have no impact on the sea of fire.
However, among the artistic conceptions constructed by monks, artistic conceptions with a single attribute are extremely rare. It's not that I'm afraid of being restrained, but that each person's own attributes are almost all five elements, and rarely have a single attribute. A person with a single attribute qualification is called the Five Elements Tao Body, which is a genius qualification second only to the Flawless Tao Body.
Moreover, although the artistic conception constructed by a true Five Elements Daoist has only a single attribute, it is already close to the realm of the Ultimate Dao. This kind of ultimate Taoist artistic conception can only be realized by people who also possess the Five Elements Taoism and have the same realm of Ultimate Taoist artistic conception.
The primary state of artistic conception is just a pure expression of will, affecting the enemy's will with the resonance of the great avenue of heaven and earth. In fact, from a certain level, the artistic conception of the primary realm is more like a woven illusion, which itself does not have much power. Of course, for the Taoist moves used by the Master of Artistic Realm, the primary realm also has a certain bonus effect, enhancing the power of the Taoist moves.
When the artistic conception goes one step further and reaches the intermediate level, it can arouse the power of the avenue that resonates with it and build a true artistic conception. In such an artistic conception, the master of the artistic conception has a strong control. He can use the power of the great avenue in the artistic conception to cast spells. He does not even need to knead the secrets and recite the incantation. He can turn the spell into a spell with almost a thought. Of course, if you use the power of other avenues to cast spells in the artistic conception, you still need the assistance of magic tricks.
The starry sky artistic conception, or the cosmic artistic conception, that Ye Zan is currently displaying has reached the intermediate level of artistic conception. If it is just a primary realm of artistic conception, as long as the opponent has a firm will, he will not be affected by the artistic conception, or even destroy it. But the artistic conception of this intermediate state is not so easy to deal with. What the opponent faces is the real power of the avenue, not some fluctuations in the power of the avenue.
This artistic conception has elementary and intermediate levels, and of course, advanced levels. An example of an advanced artistic conception is the dream of the Great Dream Master, which is like creating a new space, a space built solely with the way of dreams. To make an inaccurate analogy, the artistic conception of the intermediate level is like renting a house from someone else, while the artistic conception of the advanced level is like building a house yourself.
Although you are the landlord of a rented house, there is a landlord above you, and you still have to abide by the landlord's many restrictions. For example, you cannot change the structure of the house, you cannot install things that require drilling holes, and even sometimes the landlord has a lot of requirements for who you want to bring in. And if you build a house by yourself, in other words, it is a house that you own property rights, then you can naturally do whatever you want. Today the bathroom becomes the kitchen, and tomorrow the living room becomes the bedroom. As long as you feel comfortable, no one will care about you.
The artistic conception of this high-level realm is to make the power of heaven and earth your own, and then build an artistic space that truly belongs to you, just like buying land and materials to build a house yourself. However, this requires the ascetic to have a deep enough understanding of the Dao and be able to control the power of the Dao.
Therefore, the artistic conception of this advanced realm is also called the Tao realm.
Although there is a certain relationship between artistic conception and cultivation state, there is no inevitable causal connection. It does not mean that no matter what kind of cultivation realm you have, you will definitely be able to have any kind of artistic conception. For example, Dameng Zhenjun is called the number one person in the Yuanshen Realm because he has already mastered the Tao Realm with his cultivation in the Yuanshen Realm. Background, seniority, these are all fictitious. In this monastic world, to truly gain respect or even awe from others, you still have to look at your strength.
Above the Tao realm, there is another realm called "self-contained heaven and earth". Of course, this "heaven and earth" is an exaggeration. Only the legendary ancient saints can use their supreme power to control the earth, fire, water, and wind, and create a world in the chaos. This so-called "self-contained world" can actually be said to transform the Tao realm into an existence similar to the world, so it can also be called the Tao realm.
Compared with the world that is truly composed of thousands of avenues, the Dao world is often composed of only a few avenues. It can be said to be a minimalist small world.
However, in the Tao Realm, the Lord of the Tao Realm has absolute control, and can be said to follow his words. To use the analogy of a house again, in a house where you have absolute property rights, if someone breaks into and robs the house, you will have a problem that you have never been able to solve. However, the Dao Realm is like your house, filled with high-tech defense weapons, or turning your house into a war fortress.
It is said that the true sect of the Great Freedom Sect is the Tao Realm of Heart built by the Supreme Freedom Sect himself. There are still several Tongtian Supremes in the entire Shenhua Realm, but the only Tongtian Supreme known to people who owns the Tao Realm is Zi Zi Zhi Zun.
Although Ye Zan's artistic conception of the starry sky is only an intermediate-level artistic conception, it contains the principles of time and space. Therefore, for spells such as moving space, this starry sky artistic conception has several percent more restraint capabilities than other artistic conceptions. If it is a truly powerful soul, it may be possible to use spiritual thoughts to find the weak points of this artistic conception, and then break this artistic conception. However, the parallel import spirit of the mysterious force has no research on spiritual thoughts at all, so it is not easy to break this artistic conception.
Facing Ye Zan's killing move, the parallel import soul quickly picked up the magic formula and cast a space-moving spell. As he cast the spell, his figure became blurred and disappeared from the place without a trace in the blink of an eye.
But then, at the original position, a disembodied figure appeared again. The figure turned from virtual to real, and soon revealed a clear appearance. It was the parallel soul who had just moved space to avoid the attack. The figure of this parallel import soul was clearly revealed, with a faint expression of relief on his face. However, as he turned his gaze around, the expression on his face suddenly froze.
Ye Zan did not restrict the opponent's spells. After all, the opponent had the cultivation level of the Yuan Shen realm and could not be defeated by a head-on fight. However, with his control over the artistic space, he allowed the space there to slightly overlap while the other party was casting the spell. As a result, although the other party successfully cast the spell, it moved from its original position to its original position.
The parallel import soul found that he had not moved elsewhere, and the surrounding stars with deadly murderous intent were still strangled towards him mercilessly. But at this time, it was too late for him to repeat his old tricks, and he also saw that this trick was of no use.
Therefore, the parallel import spirit quickly changed the magic formula in his hand, and a wave of black-gold insects immediately spurted out from the gourd on his waist. Apparently, he had retained some of the black gold Gu worms from his previous attack on Cheng Liangqi and others, and he probably planned to keep them for seeding. But now, at such a critical moment, if he can't even save his own life, then what's the use of keeping these Gu insects.
Then the black-gold Gu worm surged out from the gourd and surrounded the body of the parallel soul, forming a black-gold tornado. Judging from the previous performance of the Wujin Gu insect, the tornado formed by the Wujin Gu insect should have relatively strong defense. If it were an attack from Cheng Liangqi and others, whether it was a magic weapon, a flying sword, or various Nascent Soul-level spells, it would probably be difficult to break this layer of defense.
But then again, if the parallel import soul faced an attack from Cheng Liangqi and others, there would be no need to rely on the black gold Gu insect to protect itself. But now, what the parallel soul is facing is an attack by Ye Zan using the power of stars under the blessing of the starry sky artistic conception. The power of each starlight is no less than the particle beam ejected by the high-energy particle cannon.
In the blink of an eye, the large net woven by starlight strangled the parallel import soul.
Following the soft sounds of "chi la la", streaks of starlight were twisted into the tornado formed by the Wujin Gu Insect, and wisps of smoke that were invisible in the darkness rose. No insect corpses fell like rain, because all the black gold Gu insects that were touched by the starlight were instantly turned into ashes. Although those black gold Gu insects are not afraid of swords or spells, they are as fragile as mosquitoes swatted by electric mosquitoes in front of high-energy particle beams.
"ah!"
A scream came from the already very thin black-gold tornado. And with the screams, the remaining black gold Gu worms flew away, revealing the protected parallel soul inside. Starlight streaks moved across the body of the parallel import soul, and the parallel import soul was like a collapsed building block, instantly turning into pieces of meat and falling towards the ground.
However, at this moment, from the head of the parallel import soul, a palm-sized little man with a glowing body rushed out, and he was about to run away into the distance in fear. That is the opponent's soul. Although the physical body is destroyed, as long as the soul is still there, it is not considered true death. Moreover, compared with Yuanying who can only turn to the ghost realm after losing his physical body, Yuanshen can at least take away other people's physical bodies.
However, according to Ye Zan's plan, it would be enough to let go of one parallel soul, and the remaining three should stay for comparison. Then, in the direction where the soul was flying, a small black hole suddenly appeared out of thin air. Originally, with the power of the soul, it was not too difficult to escape from the attraction of the black hole. However, the soul was only focused on escaping and did not notice that a black hole appeared in the darkness in front of it, and immediately ran into it.
"It's a pity that there is no way to catch him." Ye Zan's figure finally appeared in the starry sky, and he waved the sword in his hand towards the soul that was struggling on the black hole. A ray of sword light flew away, killing the soul and the black hole together, and there was no longer a trace of the parallel soul in the starry sky.
The four souls that Ye Zan obtained before were only obtained in the Immortal Palace with the help of Cangquan Daojun. As for himself, although he has done some research on those souls, he still does not have the ability to imprison a soul. Therefore, he had no choice but to kill the soul in front of him, and he still felt a bit like a loser in his heart.
Once again, a parallel import soul was eliminated, and now only the little Lolita and the Queen of Blades were left with their respective opponents.
"Elder Cheng, please take a rest for a while. Ye Xiao goes to help the Queen of Blades hold down that opponent, and I'll deal with the other one." Ye Zan told Cheng Liangqi and others, and without waiting for anyone to respond, he turned around and flew towards the little Lolita. go.
Ye Xiao, who was in charge of the Four Sacred Star Flags, after hearing Ye Zan's instructions, immediately left the team of Cheng Liangqi and others, and used the four star flags to lead the four holy beasts straight to the battlefield on the Queen of Blades' side. .
Although Cheng Liangqi and others were relieved that the crisis was over, the expressions on their faces were quite complicated when they saw Ye Zan and Ye Xiao leaving respectively.
In the small world of Immortal Palace, when they first came into contact with Ye Zan, Ye Zan was just a master of golden elixirs and had already shown unusual strength. But even so, after Ye Zan was promoted to the Nascent Soul realm, they didn't feel that the other party was much better than themselves. After all, after they left the small world, they had been tempered by the Great Dao in this world, and had the orthodox Yuqing Sect skills, and their strength had been greatly improved compared to before.
Therefore, this time after Ye Zan made such an arrangement, although Cheng Liangqi and others did not say anything, they still felt somewhat underestimated in their hearts. In their opinion, there are at least ten Yuanying Ancestors on their side. Even if Ye Zan's strength far exceeds the ordinary Yuanying realm, he is not so strong that one can equal ten.
However, when their opponents actually appeared, they realized that even the parallel import spirit that Ye Zan mentioned was not something that they and others could compete with. But Ye Zan, who was in the same Nascent Soul realm, was able to defeat one opponent and then come to kill another opponent with them. Of course, it sounds like they are with them, but in fact they know very well how much role they and others played in this.
"I didn't expect that Elder Ye's strength has actually reached such a level!" Yang Bufan sighed as he looked at Ye Zan's retreating figure.
"Haha, no wonder we can only do this kind of thing. We should complain less in the future." Another Yuan Ying ancestor said mockingly.
