Great Jin Dynasty, Shaolin Temple.
"Junior Brother Xuanbei, why are you just observing from the shadows? Why don't you go and take a look?" Cao Ya gracefully passed through the woods, stood in the shadows, and spoke softly to the handsome but melancholy yellow-robed monk beside him.
In the woods, on the stone path, several young monks were carrying water, occasionally supervised by a gray-robed monk.
The yellow-robed monk Xuanbei's gaze remained fixed on a twelve or thirteen-year-old monk with eyes as black as ink, eyebrows like distant mountains, and a delicate, exquisite appearance.
His expression was quite complex.
There is nostalgia, sorrow, and compassion.
“It’s not the right time yet. In the servants’ quarters, you can hone Zhen Ding’s character.” Xuan Bei’s voice was low but not deep.
Cao Ya smiled, his face calm, but his heart was filled with dread.
"Zhen Ding is Meng Qi, the protagonist of 'Peerless Supreme'! His entry into Shaolin Temple signifies that the storyline of 'Peerless Supreme' has officially begun!"
"Sigh, I've been in this world for forty-eight years and have become the number one figure in Shaolin Temple. Among the Xuan generation, my strength is second only to my junior brother Xuanbei, who joined the temple halfway through his life. I'm not weak, and I have some reputation in the martial arts world, but in reality, I'm only at the seventh level of the Outer Realm."
"Decades later, the plot of [Peerless] will go completely off the rails. At that time, let alone the exterior scenes, even the Dharma bodies will be nothing but ants!"
As soon as the thought arose, Cao Yawei frowned.
He is a time traveler.
He transmigrated from Earth to the real world of "Peerless Sovereign" when he was still an infant. His hometown suffered a famine, and all his relatives died. He was in his mother's arms and was about to die when a Shaolin monk happened to pass by and saved him.
He then grew up in the Shaolin Temple, where he practiced martial arts and showed considerable talent.
Cao Ya soon learned that this was the world of "Peerless Sovereign," where powerful figures from the other side ruthlessly manipulated the timeline, reversed cause and effect, and destroyed the universe!
He thought that he, like Meng Qi, was also a transmigrator from Earth in "The Supreme Being," and was some big shot's fish or beacon.
The appearance of a new space later made him realize that his guess was wrong.
"Clone System Space!"
"When I transmigrated, I not only transmigrated to [The Supreme Being], but also to multiple worlds at the same time: [Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils], [The Smiling, Proud Wanderer], [Detective Conan], [The Return of the Condor Heroes], and [Mysterious Resurgence]. These are the worlds that have already appeared."
"Six versions of myself appeared in that system space, which startled me at first."
"I wonder if any new faces will appear tonight?"
"Hmm, I hope it's a world with a high level of power like [Mysterious Revival]. Right now, the plot of [Peerless] is going crazy, with the seventh level of the outer realm... I feel so insecure."
Cao Ya sighed inwardly.
The protagonist appears, the plot begins, and soon the power level of this world will go berserk. The scenery is terrible, the Dharma bodies are everywhere, and only the legends can tremble!
The worldview of "Peerless Sovereign" is that the real world is high above, and in ancient times it was also called the Immortal Realm.
Beyond the realm of reality, countless universes come and go, naturally giving rise to other beings of legendary power or higher.
At that level, Cao Ya couldn't even see his figure when he looked up.
The path of cultivation begins with the hundred-day foundation building, accumulating qi and tempering the body, opening the nine orifices. When all nine orifices are opened, the inner world is perfected, and true qi can be released outwards.
After cultivating the nine orifices, one can cultivate the ancestral orifice between the eyebrows, achieving communion with heaven and man, and reaching the state of oneness with heaven and man. As for returning to simplicity and authenticity, that is a state that only a very few geniuses can achieve.
However, these are nothing special; at most, they are third-rate. Only a half-step exterior viewer is a second-rate master.
The outer realm has nine heavens. The first, second, and third heavens are for first-rate masters, while the fourth, fifth, and sixth heavens are for top-tier masters, who are also the masters of the first ladder.
The seventh, eighth, and ninth heavens are the second ladder, collectively known as the Grandmaster level.
The third ladder is vaguely beyond the realm of external scenery, hence it is also called half-step Dharma body, or Grandmaster!
Above the half-step Dharma Body realm, one naturally attains the true Dharma Body realm.
Cao Ya is at the seventh level of the Outer Realm and can be called a Grandmaster.
Xuan Bei, standing beside him, was even more formidable, reaching the eighth level of the Outer Realm and becoming the number one among the Xuan generation of Shaolin!
Cao Ya can only be considered the second person.
The Dharma body can be further divided into human immortals, earth immortals, and celestial immortals.
Above the Celestial Immortals are the legends; even in a super-world like "The Supreme Being of an Era," one can call oneself a great power.
But let alone legends, even the Dharma Body Cao Ya can only look up to it.
"Jin Yong's martial arts novels are low-level martial arts, and they don't feature outdoor scenes."
"【Detective Conan】Is not even as good as the martial arts characters in Jin Yong's novels, and I couldn't possibly create any high-tech weapons here."
"The only thing that's happening is the [mysterious resurgence]... but this world is just too special!"
"【Mysterious Resurgence】: There is no path to cultivation. All kinds of vengeful ghosts are rampaging across the planet. Moreover, these vengeful ghosts are basically devoid of intelligence. Except for a very few, the vast majority of them act according to the rules and do not have any resentment or evil aura."
"It's less a vengeful ghost and more a product of the rules."
"To become a ghost tamer by controlling a vengeful spirit, the spirit will invade the human body. Normally, the person will not live long. Even if the vengeful spirit is killed, there is still a risk of it reviving."
"That was a world of despair!"
"If we could grasp the rules represented by those vengeful ghosts..."
Cao Ya shook his head inwardly. This was something he could only think about. In the world of [Mysterious Revival], vengeful spirits were products of the rules, and he had no confidence that he could resist their erosion.
It's fine in the short term, or even for decades, but what about a hundred years from now?
It should be understood that even the most skilled demon tamers cannot prevent death from coming.
Let's focus on cultivating the [Peerless Sovereign] system.
Let's set a small goal first: to attain the Dharmakaya!
He glanced at Xuan Bei. Xuan Bei was a latecomer to the sect, so even though he was stronger and older, he was still Cao Ya's junior brother.
Cao Ya's Buddhist name is Xuanjie.
They have impeccable roots and are of noble character!
Cao Ya knew why Xuan Bei was paying attention to Meng Qi (Zhen Ding), the protagonist of "A World Worthy of Honor".
Meng Qi was his name before he transmigrated. In the real world, his secular name was Su Ziyuan. He was the only son of Xuan Bei's secular sister. Due to internal strife within the Su family of the capital, he was sent to Shaolin Temple.
However, Meng Qi did not inherit Su Ziyuan's memories, so he was unaware of these things.
Not many people know this secret. Cao Ya is familiar with the plot, has a good relationship with Xuan Bei, and was present when Xuan Bei was ordained, so he fully understands it.
After observing secretly for a while, Xuan Bei left.
Cao Ya also drifted away.
At this point, Meng Qi doesn't need to be given too much attention.
night.
Inside the meditation room.
Cao Ya sat in meditation, appearing as if he were practicing asceticism, but in reality, his mind had already drifted into the system space.
This was a hazy, boundless space where several figures appeared.
They look exactly alike, only their clothes and demeanor are slightly different.
Some were taciturn, some were domineering, some were indifferent, and some exuded an aura of laziness.
[The Supreme Being] Cao Ya looked around and his eyes lit up.
"Hey, a newbie's here! Share your memories!" The usually lazy Cao Ya seemed to have gotten interested.
Within the system space, there are currently eight Cao Yas: six veterans and two newcomers.
The two newcomers were also Cao Ya, but their attire was different.
He was gentle and refined, like a teacher.
The other one was silent and aloof, with an air of unapproachability.
The two are exactly opposites.
"Regarding this place, the system space told you everything when we appeared here. You understand, right? My comprehension is quite good." Cao Ya, the Supreme Being, said with his hands clasped together.
The domineering and imposing Cao Ya rolled his eyes: "Have you lost your mind from being a monk? I am Cao Ya of 'The Return of the Condor Heroes', and they are Cao Ya of 'The Smiling, Proud Wanderer', Cao Ya of 'Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils', Cao Ya of 'Mysterious Resurrection', and Cao Ya of 'Detective Conan'. And that bald guy is Cao Ya of 'Peerless', currently the coolest among us."
