Donghuang Ziji

Chapter 165 Ugly Earth Qi

Lord Mingxia looked at the scene performed by Chu Tai, worried that it would scare Guo Shan, so he stretched out his hand and added a few streams of light to it, and also added a rope on the incomplete steps and railings.

“If outsiders continue to follow the path I left behind, it is indeed possible that they will end up like the scene derived by Fellow Daoist Chu, where each step is difficult and although it can lead to heaven, the details are more difficult than the side door, and it may even become a stepping stone for outsiders to influence our world.”

"But it's different with Fellow Daoist Chu here. He's like this rope, able to provide sufficient protection so that you won't go astray."

Chu Tai frowned slightly when he heard this, but before he could speak, Guo Shan had already shook his head and said, "But Old...Fellow Daoist Chu and I are not on the same path. To me, he should be a guide and a mentor, and we should be on the same path in the future. It is wrong for me to rely on him so much."

When Guo Shan said this, Mingxia and Feiquan were overjoyed, and Chu Tai nodded repeatedly.

However, Chu Tai glanced at Feiquan and Mingxia's expressions, coughed twice, put on a good face, and gave them a few words of advice, telling them the importance of cultivation.

Then, the few of them walked around, found a Feng Shui good spot, dug out a cave and lived in it.

For a period of time thereafter, during the day Mingxia and Feiquan taught Guo Shanyin Jingzong many introductory methods. In the evening, Chutai checked his practice results and pointed out the mistakes and omissions, especially some foreign Taoist principles and laws that Mingxia and Feiquan taught unconsciously.

Just as Chu Tai had said before, this part of the concept was a dead end for the Great Heaven where they were. Even if they could turn to the right path, without the blessing of the laws and principles of the foreign land, the steps and guardrails on the road would also be incomplete.

Because of his early experiences, Guo Shan has an attitude that is close to belief in Chu Tai.

When faced with Chu Tai's teachings, his first reaction was to believe them, and he would not be too deeply influenced by Ming Xia and Fei Quan's ideas.

Chu Tai himself also used Guo Shan to figure out some problems with his family's inheritance, and also some problems with the Dao Fruit fragments in his body.

To put it bluntly, the Dao Fruit fragments that Chu Tai possessed were actually the influence of the Dao laws and principles of the alien world. According to the theory of mountain climbing, Chu Tai would also walk into those dead-end roads, but because the Dao Fruit fragments were highly consistent with himself, yet not completely consistent, it was like he was split into two bodies, walking on two roads at the same time.

In addition, many Dao Fruit fragments themselves have the ability to reach the sky. Even if the way forward is blocked, they can still float in the air, or use vines and ladders to go directly to the next platform.

However, Chu Tai could not discover these things by observing on his own. He could only find them one by one with the help of Guo Shan.

Only in this way can we better find the path to correct the Yin Jing Sect's method.

During this exploration process, Chu Tai gradually realized that the Dao Fruit that the Dao Fruit fragments ultimately pointed to and the highest achievements that Yin Jing Sect and Jinhua Sect ultimately pointed to were actually certain aspects of the Dao. It was just that each of them was more adapted to the corresponding great heaven, and there was not much difference in the inner core.

'However, the Dao Fruit of Xianxian Daohua Datian is obviously more aggressive. Without the suppression of the Donghuang Bell, ordinary people cannot digest the information in the Dao Fruit fragments at all. They will unconsciously approach the principles of foreign lands. Even if they can barely maintain their own principles, their personalities will be affected in long-term contact.'

'In contrast, because of the existence of the Donghuang Bell, I can grasp the power of the Dao Fruit fragments very well and maintain a normal balance. By comparing them, I can obtain more information and have stronger power, but on the other hand, I can easily fall into the perception brought by the comparison of the two powers and lose the correct understanding of the local cultivation path...'

Chu Tai secluded himself for several months, sorting out his gains, and gained many insights, comprehending many mysteries for subsequent practice.

With higher knowledge and more comprehensive understanding, the bonus of [Alchemist] to research will naturally be easier. Finally, under the guidance of Chu Tai and with the help of Mingxia and Feiquan, Guo Shan completed his first act of refining the spring, incorporating a wisp of Yellow Spring Qi into his own Guigen Jiuyuan Tomb Qi, successfully raising the level of his own practice of true Qi, and breaking out of the original practice framework.

For this newly formed true Qi, Lord Mingxia and Lord Feiquan both wanted to give it a new name.

"This Qi is based on the Qi of the Nine Origins Tomb, and the Qi of the Yellow Spring is the core. Can it be called the Qi of the Yellow Spring, or the Qi of the Nine Springs?"

Feiquan's suggestion was rejected by Mingxia. "Nine originally means nine springs or Huangquan, and can also refer to a cemetery or the earth. The so-called returning to the nine origins means returning to the earth and the soul returning to the nine springs. This is why we can introduce Huangquan Qi."

"Moreover, according to Fellow Daoist Chu's calculations, this method can introduce any kind of Nine Springs Qi when it reaches this stage in the future. Is it possible to give each kind of spring water a name? There is no need to name it. Just call it the Netherworld Spring Qi."

Feiquan was not happy to hear that and said, "Underworld? Although the Qi of the Nine Origins Tomb was influenced by the Qi of the Yellow Springs and gave rise to the atmosphere of the Underworld, it only gave rise to the atmosphere and did not really become the Underworld. How can it be named the Underworld? In my opinion, this land should be called Ugly Land."

"Chou Earth is the storehouse of gold, and it also has the residual energy of winter water. It contains Yi, Xin and Gui, which is more suitable to be the name of its Qi."

As for the argument between the two, Guo Shan just sat on the side and watched, asking Chu Tai about the next step of his practice.

Feiquan and Mingxia also went to Chu Tai for this reason and asked him what he thought.

Chu Tai, who couldn't get over the two of them, finally said casually: "Then let's call it Ugly Earth Tongyou Naquan Qi."

As soon as he said this, he was immediately recognized by Guo Shan, who said that the true Qi in his body would be called Chou Tu Tong You Na Quan Qi from now on.

Feiquan and Mingxia saw this and didn't say much. They went back and left their corresponding names in the newly compiled inheritance book. They also simply beautified this experience and recorded it in it.

Chu Tai, who knew what the two had done, couldn't help but shook his head and recalled some classics he had seen in Jinhua Sect in the past. He couldn't help but wonder whether the predecessors who recorded them back then were also like Feiquan and Mingxia now.

In this way, more than half a year passed, and Chu Tai finally sorted out a relatively complete set of entry-level practice methods for the Yin Jing Sect, as well as a set of inheritance system that could incorporate Guo Shan's past practice methods, allowing later generations to practice normally to the sixth level and condense the sixth-level Ugly Earth Tongyou Naquan Qi.

Looking at this new set of skills, Mingxia and Feiquan were very excited and happy. Chu Tai could feel that the aura of both of them had become softer, especially that of Lord Feiquan, who seemed to have established a connection with some power above the nine heavens in a trance.

The Mingxia God, who had originally lost the possibility of ascending to heaven, also showed some signs of heavenly light. Chu Tai was very happy to discover this, and he began to try to reorganize the inheritance of Jinhua Sect.

During this process, Chu Tai found that he had a deeper understanding of the Pure Yin Huachen Tiansui Zhenqi. The mana accumulated in the fragments of the [Flying Immortal] Dao Fruit was also constantly digested by him, gradually recovering to the level of six Jiazi, and quickly surpassing it, heading towards seven Jiazi.

He took the opportunity to refine the magic weapons in his hands, including the Jinxuan Danxia Banner, the Qiyin Huasha Banner, the golden light beads, the Suchen Qingmang, the Chenxiang sword pill, the Bagua gourd brush, the Liuhe circle, and the Five Dragons Demon-killing Wheel, making them even more mysterious.

The red maple sword bag, which had lost some of its essence, was warmed up and nurtured to restore 90% of its essence, and then sent into the mountains for use as a protective device.

Finally, Chu Tai took out the Taiyi Changming Lamp, which had previously undergone a refinement of its form and quality, and refined and washed it repeatedly to nourish its power, especially putting a lot of effort into dealing with internal and external demons.

It can be said that this period of more than a year was the most relaxing time for Chu Tai since he was released.

Until Wu Chaoxi and Feifei came to the door.

Chu Tai naturally welcomed the arrival of the two old friends.

As soon as he entered, Wu Chaoxi said to Chu Tai, "How long have you been back? You didn't even bother to say hello to the crows next to you, and you asked me to come find you. Do you really treat me as an outsider?"

Seeing Wu Chaoxi's eyes that seemed to complain but actually contained worry and sadness, he smiled and explained, "Isn't this to avoid that old man? You know, he has been targeting me since I came back this time."
