Should female cultivators use "Yuanjun"?
The writing is very good. You can tell that she has been a female nun before. The writing is very real and matches my experience as a female nun. Come on!
Make some bold guesses based on existing settings
——As of Chapter 49. 1. What is this world like? How big is it? The only map currently appearing in the book is the Old Continent, which is divided into five boundaries: east, west, south, north, and center. Among them, [Middle-earth] is the strongest, with tens of first-rate sects having tens of thousands of foundations. Among these first-class sects, there are at least 10 Zi Mansion Dzogchen guarantees. Except for the West, the boundaries of the other three areas are not yet known. I learned from Li Qingye that the Western Land was extremely barren, and most sects only had a few early Zifu as Supreme Elders. The overall strength of these sects may not even be as good as the Zuo family. But this is normal. In "Dou Po", any family in Zhongzhou with the pinnacle of the Nine-Star Dou Sect can overwhelm the entire Jia Ma Empire. In addition to the Old Continent, there are also the four seas surrounding the Old Continent, but the specific size of the four seas is not stated in detail in the book. There is also a concept of beyond the four seas, but what is beyond the four seas has not been said. [Bold guess]: The Old Land is most likely just a novice village, and the real bosses are outside the Old Land. The evidence is as follows: First, there are four small realms in the Golden Elixir stage. According to the eldest cousin, if the Zifu stage is short of one small realm, it will be an instant kill, and the Golden Elixir stage will only be even more outrageous. So it is completely possible to treat the four small realms of the Golden Elixir stage as the large realms of ordinary web texts. But this is not over yet. When recalling the identity of the little white dragon clan, the heroine said that the strength of the dragon clan when they become adults is at least the early stage of the golden elixir, and the best ones are even above the golden elixir. This proves that there is at least a greater realm above the golden elixir. There are so many realms with huge differences in strength, but there are only a dozen Jindan True Lords. This is obviously inconsistent with the realm system pyramid. (The number of existing True Lords in the Old Continent is controversial. Du Qing said it was the number of two palms, and the heroine said it was ten. Considering that Du Qing is only a foundation-building monk, the heroine's statement shall prevail) The most likely explanation is that the Old Continent is a novice village, which is equivalent to a large Gama Empire. The True Lord is the Dou Huang with a higher level of strength, and the truly stronger boss is outside the Old Land. Second, it's the name [Old Earth]. Only with new things can there be distinctions between the old and the old. If there is no new land beyond the old land, then why is this continent called the old land? So this is also one of the evidences supporting the existence of the new world. Third, the number of fruition positions does not match the number of existing true kings. Zhenren Lieyang said that all the fire, Taoism and fruit positions in the world have their own masters. The book does not clearly state how many positions of the Fire Law Taoism there are. Let's just say that it is almost the same as the Thunder Law Tradition, with 7 of them. Then the heroine said that 6 of the 7 Lei Dharma Taoist Attainment Status already have owners. 7+6, that equals 13 statues. I basically went here for at least 2/3. Is it possible that other orthodox traditions don't need to achieve fruition? This is obviously unreasonable. Then there is only one possibility. The number of True Lords on the Old Continent is not the total number of True Lords as a group. So where are the remaining True Lords? If it is not within the Old Continent, it must be outside the Old Continent. Fourth, it is speculation based on history. During the ancient era, the ancient races dominated the world, and the dragon race had the strength of the early golden elixir when it reached adulthood. It's impossible for the entire dragon clan to only have a few adult dragons, right? There are at least hundreds of adult dragons, which is the combat power of hundreds of true kings. This is just an ancient race, what about the Phoenix race? What about the Qilin tribe? What about the Golden Crow tribe? The combined true king-level combat power of many ancient races is at least a thousand. Thousands of True Lords nest in a palm-sized area like the Old Continent. Is the territory divided enough? Definitely not enough points. Correspondingly, as the protagonist of this era, the human race is now the master of this world. Is it possible to kill so many ancient races with only a dozen true kings? Definitely impossible. So the complete world view of this book is definitely much larger than the map shown so far. The Old Continent is just a corner of the world, and the world outside the Old Continent is even more vast. 2. What is the history of this world? Currently, there are only five names for the eras. From morning to night, they are the Era of Gods and Demons, the Ancient Era, the Era of the Emperor, the Era of Immortal Law, and the Era of the Emperor of Heaven. [Era of Gods and Demons]: The innate gods and innate demons dominate the world. As for where these powerful innate gods and demons have gone, the book does not say, only that there is a very awesome ancient battlefield of gods and demons, which has been passed down to the era where the heroine is now, and is still immortal. The even more awesome thing is that these gods and demons have been dead for who knows how many years, leaving only a remnant soul, that's all, and the strength of the Jindan True King level. Looking at the leopard from the inside, it is difficult to imagine how powerful a complete ancient god or ancient demon is? How awesome is the war between gods and demons? Judging from the current estimated combat power, I am afraid it will not be able to shatter the entire world. [Ancient Era]: The ancient race dominates the world. The book clearly explains the awesomeness of the ancient races, and also explains the final destination of these ancient races. They were either exterminated or domesticated by humans and became the mounts of the strong. There are only some monster beasts with ancient bloodline left in the world. Think about Xiaobai, a royal bloodline of the ancient dragon clan. In the ancient times, she was a dragon princess. Now she can only serve the heroine tea and water, act coquettishly and cutely, and you will know that the ancient race has completely declined. [Era of the Emperor]: The book says that this is the era when the human race began to rise. What it looks like specifically is not stated clearly in the book. [Era of Immortal Magic]: There is no information at all in this era book, except for a slight mention of a name. But judging from the name, it should be similar to the Immortal Era in "Perfect", an era when immortality was at its peak. [Era of the Heavenly Emperor]: There is no information at all about this era, but judging from the name, it should be that a Heavenly Emperor was born in the human race, and then the entire era was named after this super powerful man. [The Era in which the heroine lives]: The name of this era is not yet known. But judging from the performance in the book, a very complete realm cultivation system has been built in this era. But maybe because the predecessors did not consider sustainable development and killed all the alien races to extinction, the human race was no longer able to obtain cultivation resources from the alien races as before. In order to maintain the huge consumption of cultivation, it could only establish a self-extracting resource acquisition system. [Bold guess]: This is a world where the earlier you are born, the greater the dividends. Born in the Era of Gods and Demons, one may be an ancient god or an ancient demon, and one's cultivation can shake the world. One may not even need to practice at all, as one is born so powerful. At present, the ancient gods and ancient demons are even more powerful than the true king. Being born in the ancient era, if you are an ancient race, basically even if you lie flat, as long as you survive until adulthood, you will be guaranteed to have the strength of the early golden elixir. Being born in the Era of the Emperor, considering that the human race was just rising, if you were born at this time, if you were a human race, it would be too hard, and you might even be used as food by those powerful races. But because of the difficulties of the human race, the human race at this time must be the most united human race, and the main way to obtain resources is to hunt foreign races. Being born in the Immortal Era, when the Immortal Way is at its peak, you may already be able to become an Immortal at this time. This should be the happiest era. On the one hand, the alien race has not been driven out to extinction, and the human race can still obtain cultivation resources from the alien race. On the other hand, the human race is strong enough and is not afraid of being bullied at will by foreign races. Born in the Era of the Emperor of Heaven, which should be the heyday of the human race, a Heavenly Emperor appeared. At this time, the human race may be the most glorious, but after its glory, it may start to decline. The internal conflicts of the human race began to appear. Because the resources are not enough, it will inevitably fight to the death internally. Being born in the era where the heroine is, it depends on your luck. If you have an empty aperture, you can become an immortal and be free and easy after going through a lot of hardships. If you are unlucky, you will either be a 🐮🐎 in the righteous sect or a talented person in the demonic sect. 3. What is the cultivation system of this world? How powerful is the true king? The cultivation system of this world obviously draws on Xuanjian's Zifu Golden Elixir system, but it has been adapted. First, there is no realm of [fetal breath] in this world. Instead, there is the preparatory stage of [nourishing qi]. A genius doesn't know how many years it will take to reach perfection in this Qi-raising stage. Anyway, it only took the heroine two years to reach the first level of the Qi-refining stage. My eldest cousin started practicing Qi at the age of 6, and only reached the first level at the age of 10. At this point, he is already a very awesome genius. It can be imagined that the heroine's talent is indeed quite high. Second, the foundation building in this world can live for 300 years, and Zifu is even more awesome, and can live for 1,200 years. When it comes to the golden elixir, life expectancy has increased tenfold and can live 10,000 years. Even, this is just the basic longevity. No one knows if there is any way to extend life in this world. Maybe this world can be like the great emperor who covers the sky, living a second life in his later years and living for another ten thousand years? Thirdly, the Zi Mansion in this world does not seem to have the concept of [Perfection of the Five Dharmas]. Once you reach the Great Perfection of the Zi Mansion, you can directly start seeking gold. And the Zi Mansion in this world does not seem to have the ability to read minds around the clock. Of course, it may be that the heroine's level is too high, and no Zifu dares to read the heroine's mind. Fourth, the golden elixir of this world has been strengthened at an epic level. In Chapter 49, the heroine can crush the eternal blue sky and cut off the long river of time with just a shadow. This is exactly like the powerful emperor who covers the sky next door. Of course, this is the perspective of the silver-robed dragon suit. It may also be because he himself cultivates the thunder method and is fully restrained by the thunder method's path, which leads to this behavior that over-amplifies the strength of the Golden Core True Monarch. To put it simply, he was frightened out of hallucinations. In other words, it has special effects and blessings for the monks of this Taoist tradition. Fifth, there is another realm above True Lord Jindan. Based on Xuanjian's cultivation system next door, it can be speculated that it is most likely a Taoist fetus. However, the level of this Taoist body is very likely to be higher than that of Yuan Xuanjian's Taoist body. Of course, it is very possible for the author to create something original. It depends on how the author compiles it. So how powerful is Zhenjun? First, it can easily resolve the Zifu magical power that destroys mountains. Second, ignore the defense of the Dharma Minister of the Zi Mansion and blow up the head of the great repairman of the Zi Mansion from the air. Third, a monk who completely suppresses his own Taoist lineage can make the power in the opponent's body go out of control with just one thought, even if the other person is not cultivating the branch of his own Taoist lineage. Fourth, with the means of the Voice of the Avenue, it can broadcast throughout the map. The specific distance is not stated in the book, but it is certain that it can at least cover the entire Old Land continent, including the four seas surrounding the Old Land. The above four are just the tip of the iceberg of Zhenjun. After all, the heroine acted calmly and with ease from beginning to end, without even using any real skills. She was average throughout. And so far, there is only one True Lord in the female lead. I don't know what other True Lords are capable of.
I heard there are lilies blooming here?
Have you ever practiced immortality? Just write it down and take it for granted.
End of the game, when did I see the word "cold" and never think of it?
Good guy, are you so fierce?
You wouldn't know if you didn't check it, but you will be surprised when you check it. This book actually ranks fourth among new authors in the Xianxia District.
There are not many transformation articles with good ideas. I hope I can finish this one smoothly 😭
