Donghuang Ziji

Chapter 262 The Way of One
In the Taiyi Nine-Grade Classification Method, the fifth grade is called Zhuge. The greatest feature of this grade is the further integration of essence, energy and spirit, and the cultivation of Yin God, spiritual fetus and true talisman has achieved some success, and a certain degree of qualitative change has occurred.

The Yin God turns into the Yang God and forms the Yuan Shen; the Golden Elixir Avenue completes the three turns of internal cultivation; the natal true talisman inherits the destiny, and the birth of purple and blue is also one of the symbols of the fifth grade.

In order to accomplish this step, the key point is that the monk must master a principle.

In the past, Chu Tai had mastered a lot of principles.

Now, all these Dharmas, which were either mastered by Chu Tai, or came from outside, or had some real meaning, were slowly revolving around the light in Chu Tai's hand, just like the stars revolving around the North Star.

Chu Tai's understanding became clearer and clearer, and he had a more accurate grasp of his future path.

'I seem to have created a new and very powerful Dharma.'

"However, I'm afraid that no one will be able to comprehend this kind of Dharma in the future. After all, I am the only one who can take out the core of the human essence, spiritual emotion and wonderful Qi from my body at the sixth level."

Chu Tai looked at the spiritual light in his hand. This thing was very special. Although it was not the blessing left by the Supreme Taoist Ancestor for all living beings, it was also a symbol derived from the power of the Supreme. In other words, this thing was Chu Tai's identity proof between heaven and earth.

And now, Chu Tai is building his own path and Dharma with this spiritual light as the core.

'For me, everything is derived from me.'

'The level of one's practice and the strength of one's understanding of the Dharma are all up to me.'

"The Tao of Immortality follows the laws of nature, refining essence into qi, refining qi into spirit, refining spirit into emptiness, refining emptiness into the Tao, removing all acquired things and returning to the innate..."

'Buddhism conversion, aspiration, precepts, right view, meditation and insight...'

"Shintoism, right faith, right conduct..."

"No matter how the Dharma changes, no matter how profound the Dharma's meaning is, it all depends on me..."

Many insights continued to emerge in Chu Tai's mind, and his unique Dharma ideas were gradually taking shape.

【The Sound of Bamboo Sea and Tides】is derived from one’s own perception and can naturally be included in the new meaning of the Dharma.

Although [Flying Immortal] originated from the fragments of Tao Fruit, it is different from the Lotus Mother Dharma Image. It is closely related to Chu Tai and has been used for a long time. Chu Tai has mastered it naturally and can naturally integrate it into the new Dharma.

The Dharma meanings of [Mountains and Rivers], [Underground Lord], and [Scorching Hell] were all learned by Chu Tai from nature and others. Although each is incomplete, they are also Chu Tai's own feelings, and naturally return to his Dharma meaning.

Although he had only mastered the basics of the Dharmas such as [Immortal], [Free and Easy], [Yin and Yang], [Five Elements], and [Ghost Immortal], the foundation had been established. Chu Tai also had the basis for mastering them and built a bridge connecting the new Dharmas with them.

The Dharma meaning of [Nanwu Guanyin] is the Dharma meaning that comes with the Lotus Mother Dharma Image. Its connection with Chu Tai is the weakest, but the owner of the Lotus Mother Dharma Image is Chu Tai, so he can naturally tolerate this Dharma meaning.

As for the remaining insights that he had not yet mastered, such as [resistance], [unyielding], [flame], [hope], [blue sea], [eradication of filth], and [sweet rain], they were also gradually improved after Chu Tai had mastered the previous Dharma ideas one by one and incorporated them into the new Dharma ideas.

"Since I understand the principle of comprehending the Dharma, and have mastered some of the components of the Dharma, I can naturally master it slowly, and with the connection, I can naturally embrace it. All of this is my path..."

Chu Tai looked at the increasingly bright spiritual light in his palm, and finally named his own Dharma Meaning as the Dharma Meaning of [One], which was taken from the meaning of "Tao gave birth to One, One gave birth to Two, Two gave birth to Three, and Three gave birth to all things."

The fifth-grade true qi of Nanyan Cave Fuxiyao true qi that Chu Tai originally mastered also underwent a new transformation as Chu Tai determined his Dharma intention.

Chu Tai had already comprehended most of the fifth-grade pure Yin Huachen Tiansui true Qi. As the Dharma Meaning of [One] took shape and was embraced by his true Qi, it brought out some of the true meaning of the third-grade Taiyi Yujing Danque Jinhua Miao Qi that Chu Tai had comprehended in the past, guiding Chu Tai's true Qi to continuously transform upward.

Feeling the true Qi surging in his body and sensing the wonderful power of the changes of yin and yang, Chu Tai pondered secretly in his heart.

'If nothing unexpected happened, I should have first completed the Yang Soul Chapter of the Taiyi Jinhua Celestial Secret Chapter, condensed the fourth-grade Taiyi Yaoluo Danyang Qi, and then completed the Yin Soul Chapter, and understood the fourth-grade Taiyi Xuanzhu Fangwei Qi, before I could try to condense the Taiyi Yujing Danque Jinhua Miao Qi.'

'But now, my Dharma has transcended the original manifestation of the Jinhua Sect, and the true Qi that has been formed has naturally also initially escaped from its limitations. Of course, the core of my current true Qi is still the Nanyan Cave Fuxiyao true Qi, followed by the pure Yin Huachen Tiansui true Qi, the Jiuquan Yinjing Mengbo Qi, and other partial characteristics of true Qi, which contains the dual changes of Yin and Yang, and can also be regarded as the secondary manifestation of Taiyi Yujing Danque Jinhua Miaoqi.'

'Let's call this newly formed fourth-grade true qi the Taiyi Xuanhui Miaodao true qi.'

Chu Tai's mind must have made the aura around him become more peaceful, and as his true Qi rolled, there were changes in Yin and Yang. The [Yin and Yang] Dharma that he had originally mastered was improved, and the [Mountain and River] Dharma also showed subtle changes.

Moreover, these changes have brought about a series of new changes.

For example, some magic weapons that Chu Tai carries with him usually interact with Chu Tai's aura, so that when he needs them, they can fly out naturally with just a thought, and they can even automatically manifest and protect themselves without his special urging.

But now, Chu Tai's cultivation level suddenly changed drastically, especially the true Qi attribute became more pure and complex, and these magic weapons couldn't help but shake.

Chu Tai took them out one by one, and after a simple cleansing, he suppressed the changes of many magic weapons.

Moreover, during this process, Chu Tai also discovered that the Jinxuan Danxia Banner and the Qiyin Huasha Banner were no longer suitable for further separation.

These two magic weapons originally had similar records and ways of being put together in the Jinhua Sect, but Chu Tai has now made some progress in his cultivation and has condensed his own true Qi, so he wanted to use these two as the core to create a magic weapon that is more suitable for him.

Therefore, when Chu Tai was refining these two magic weapons, he did not specifically give them the ability to change yin and yang, but instead tried to retain their original nature as much as possible and sorted them out with his own true qi as the core.

Under Chu Tai's true energy, the two treasure banners turned from tangible to intangible, and then spiraled like yin and yang, and finally, under Chu Tai's guidance, they turned into a brand new magic weapon.

The new banner is seven feet and two inches high. The surface of the banner looks like brocade woven with a pattern of yin and yang fish. There are ancient seal characters painted on the surrounding area with smoke and clouds. The glow of the sunset is faint, and it emits five-colored light that changes from time to time, which is quite mysterious.

Chu Tai took it in his hand, and in addition to integrating his own true Qi into it to purify the red fire Danxia golden light and the seven yin mysterious evil light inside, he also integrated the [Yin Yang] and [Flying Immortal] Dharmas that he had comprehended into it.

This process was much more troublesome than before. Chu Tai could only hold the treasure in his hand and slowly refine and imprint the magic power on it.

After doing all this, Chu Tai bowed to the portraits of the Mingchen Sect above to express his gratitude for the help.

In the darkness, wisps of clear light descended from the sky and landed on Chu Tai. The Donghuang Bell shook slightly, gathering it. Chu Tai naturally knew what the founder of the Mingchen School wanted to express.

"Are you willing to inherit the Mingchen Sect's tradition?"
