Chapter 320 The Union of Yin and Yang Enters the Immortal Pot

There is also a Fairy Pot Palace in Jinghua Cave, which is also a natural rock cave on a high cliff. Unlike Piaocai Cave, the cave hall has been carved and decorated by humans and has been transformed into a well-equipped cultivation cave.

There are also many Heavenly Palace Curtains growing on the cliff outside the cave, many of which meet the standards for refining spiritual medicines, but none are as special as the one in the Floating Color Cave.

After entering the Jinghua Cave, He Kao first went to the Ancestral Hall to swear an oath, and then came here with Wei Luo to prepare to take the elixir.

A small Tai Chi Yin Yang array has been set up in the main hall of the Immortal Pot Palace. It has two array eyes that are Yin and Yang to each other. The two people sit in one place and can touch their palms together by raising their arms.

"What? You actually fed Tian Gonglian a Spirit Awakening Pill? You're just as mischievous as Elder Li was when he was a kid!"

Both of them had already obtained the secrets to taking the Pure Yang Pill in combination with the peony, including a serious method for absorbing and circulating the spiritual energy, as well as a method for mutual cultivation and benefit.

Suddenly finding themselves alone in this cave hall, the two of them had to discuss how to take the pill, which inevitably made things a little awkward.

Perhaps to ease the awkward atmosphere, He Kao told a story about how he fed Qi Ling Dan to Tian Gong Lian, which made Wei Luo laugh heartily.

He Kao also laughed and said, "Did you also know about Elder Li's experimentation with Qi Ling Dan when he was a child?"

Wei Luo: "Many locals know this. I heard it from my elders. Elder Li was incredibly mischievous as a child, hated by cats and dogs, and even rabbits were frightened by him..."

As she spoke, she lowered her head again, but glanced at He Kao and said, "Since you have experience, then you'll be in charge of guiding me with the first pill..."

Looking at her expression now, her cheeks were flushed, as if she were shy and timid.

He Kao: "No problem, let me go first. Is there anything else we can discuss, Junior Sister?" This was actually asking how the two of them would take the pills. As long as Wei Luo said, "Then take the pills normally," He Kao would know what to do.

Wei Luo replied, "Let nature take its course. We should listen to whoever is in charge."

He Kao: "Okay."

He had no doubt about Wei Luo's answer, because the premise of taking the pill together was to absolutely trust each other. If one person was the leader, the other person had to give full play to their body and spirit without reservation.

Otherwise, not only will the elixir's efficacy fail to be refined, but the person may also suffer internal injuries.

According to the introduction of Zongfatang, a person can indeed take Chunyang Dan multiple times, but after taking the first one, it is best to wait for a period of time before taking the second one, so as to fully adapt to the process of Yi Jin Xi Sui.

Jiang Daozhen taught them another method of taking pills: taking two pills at once, with two people taking turns to lead the process, which would achieve a more perfect absorption and metabolism.

However, this method of taking the elixir is very difficult. First, you need two Pure Yang Pills and matching Peony Pills at the same time, and they must be taken by the same person.

Both of them must have a cultivation level of level five or above, and they must be each other's dominant force... He Kao and Wei Luo just happen to meet the requirements.

After changing into specially prepared loose-fitting overcoats, the two sat upright in the Tai Chi Yin Yang Formation. He Kao offered up the Pure Yang Pill and the Peony Pill, which were activated by the formation and began to rotate around them.

The peony is silvery-white, and when it rotates, it emits a light that resembles the cold gleam of snow. The Pure Yang Pill is pure gold, like a gleaming golden ball. As He Kao activates the formation to its limit, the gold and silver light turn into mist.

Their figures were gradually enveloped by the light mist. After an unknown amount of time, the light mist turned into liquid, just like clouds turning into raindrops, which the two of them inhaled and held under their tongues.

The tongue generates saliva, which is then circulated through the body using the Jade Liquid Refining Method... This step is the most crucial, and He Kao is quite experienced in this. Whether it is "detoxifying" Lan Jiuwan or helping Tian Gonglian "take" the Qiling Pill, his methods are similar.

He Kao circulated his divine energy and magical power, stimulating the meridians and acupoints, cleansing the meridians and internal organs, and "synchronizing" this process with Wei Luo's physical form and spirit.

In this way, even if Wei Luo is an ordinary person with no cultivation, she can still absorb the spiritual effects of the pill. All she has to do is completely let go of her physical form and spirit to cooperate with He Kao.

Once the medicinal effects have been fully absorbed into the body and spirit, the most crucial stage has passed, and approximately three hours have already elapsed. The next three hours will be the process of circulating and transforming the essence, allowing for more flexible execution.

This process was still led by He Kao, with Wei Luo Dang cooperating and interacting with him.

He Kao then adopted the most familiar and conventional method, remaining seated in meditation and circulating his magical power, while constantly sensing Wei Luo's physical and spiritual changes, keeping the two in the same rhythmic state.

In this state, time seemed to pass both very long and as if it had just flown by. The moment the medicinal effects were fully utilized, Wei Luo immediately took over the formation, switching over it with remarkable smoothness.

The most mysterious part is the method by which the two take pills one after the other and each takes the lead.

What followed seemed to be a replay of the previous scene. Wei Luo then summoned a Pure Yang Pill and a peony, which hovered above the two of them, spinning and transforming into two beams of light. Gradually, the pill's light turned into mist, and then the mist turned into liquid...

As the effects of the second pill were absorbed into his body and spirit and he began to circulate his energy, Wei Luo suddenly moved. She got up and moved closer, and with the rhythm of the magic power, He Kao also moved to the center of the magic array.

The two of them were actually in the same position...

The Tai Chi Yin Yang Formation isolates the outside world from divine senses, and it is impossible for anyone to break through the formation's shield with divine senses at this time, as doing so would be tantamount to interrupting the two people's process of taking the elixir.

He Kao had been mentally prepared for this since he had decided to take the elixir in this way, but he hadn't expected Wei Luozhen to do it this way. All he could do at this moment was to cooperate, and to cooperate by focusing his mind and experiencing the sensation without having any other thoughts.

There can be no other communication in the meditative state; one can only maintain the circulation and rhythm of one's spiritual energy... Well, this is a more direct way to harness the effects of the Pure Yang Pill and the Peony Elixir, but it puts a deeper test on one's concentration.

In fact, some experiences that cultivators have in the meditative state do not require contact between men and women, but are more profound and subtle than simple matters between men and women. The corresponding techniques will also remind cultivators not to get too engrossed in them.

However, on the other hand, the joy that arises in meditative states cannot completely replace real interaction, and He Kao experienced both of these today...

The entire process of taking one Pure Yang Pill takes six hours, or twelve hours. Theoretically, taking two pills in a mutually dominant manner would take exactly one day and one night.

This final period was completed in a way that needs no description.

When the effects of the second Pure Yang Pill were finally fully absorbed and Wei Luo emerged from the meditative state, he suddenly trembled all over, and then his body went completely limp, and he closed his eyes as if he had fainted.

She hadn't actually fainted; she just didn't dare open her eyes, so she pretended to be unconscious. He simply helped her up, shifting her into a more comfortable position, and casually cast a small cleansing spell.

He Kao didn't speak, nor did he ask Wei Luo why he had acted that way. After a while, Wei Luo closed his eyes and murmured against his chest, "When I was in college, the girls in my dorm all said I was a monster and that it was impossible for me to have a man."

"Hmph, actually I know very well that they haven't eaten anything good either, let alone had the chance to eat anything good." He Kao finally couldn't help but ask, "You mean, am I some kind of good pork?"

Wei Luo: "You're not pork, you're Tang Sanzang flesh. I'm a fifth-level guide, I can glimpse a trace of heavenly secrets, I can see it. No matter what kind of magic I cultivate, I have to have eaten and seen it, so it has to be something I came up with myself."

At this point, she suddenly sighed again, and then changed her tone, saying, "Actually, they are right. I am indeed a monster. I can manage to communicate in cultivation, but I can't get along with people in daily life."

This isn't just my problem; cultivators of the Lingxi Sect have almost always been celibate since ancient times, more like monks than monks themselves..."

He Kao could understand these words to some extent. If someone like Wei Luo were to date like an ordinary person, the other person would suffer terribly.

Unlike the Qi-observation technique, which can detect the relationships between people, or the spirit-inducing technique, which can perceive and guide the emotions of others, the Spirit-Inducing Technique can discern the causes and origins of things and judge the possible trends of change under various conditions.

Back then, when He Kaoqing and Wei Luo had a meal at the food street, Wei Luo was able to tell what kind of environment the various ingredients grew in, who processed them, and how they were processed.

The scent on clothes and the dust in hair can reveal the origin of an event, not to mention the lighter in her pocket... But these are secondary; more importantly, she can deduce the changing trends of various things.

People always have to make various decisions in life, and every decision may be imperfect. So, should she remind the other person how to do it better?

If you offer a suggestion, it means you are always asking the other person to change their decision; if you don't offer a suggestion, it means you know the other person will face a bad outcome, but you are just watching coldly.

Sometimes, even if a hint is given and the other party listens, it doesn't prove that she is right, because the worse outcome originally expected did not happen in reality. Moreover, there are many limitations to using the Spiritual Connection Technique.

This isn't a matter of trust, honesty, or tolerance; it's about one party having no personal boundaries whatsoever. It's like living with a monster—no one could stand that in daily life…

While He Kao was pondering, he suddenly remembered something and gently slapped her: "That's not right! My second uncle, Xiao Guangnian, is also a sorcerer of the Lingxi Sect. When I first met him, I heard that his wife had taken the children to Hainan for winter vacation."

Wei Luo opened his eyes: "Have you ever thought about why Uncle Xiao is over eighty years old and his child is only in middle school?"

He Kao: "Still vigorous in old age?"

Wei Luo was amused, then sighed, "Because when he was almost seventy years old, he finally accepted his fate, that he had no hope of breaking through to a higher realm of cultivation in this life, and he had given up in his heart... but he still wouldn't spend too much time with his family."

He Kao gently stroked something and said, "Actually, just now, I also mastered the basics of the Spiritual Rhinoceros Technique."

Wei Luo looked up: "Really?"

He Kao: "I only practiced the Spiritual Connection Technique as a side skill; it was only with great difficulty that I became a first-tier Observer..."

In fact, He Kao not only mastered the Lingxi Technique today, but also broke through to the fourth level of his Body Observation Technique after taking his first Pure Yang Pill. He is now a "physician".

During the process of taking the first Pure Yang Pill, he gained an unprecedentedly clear understanding of both his own and Wei Luo's physical constitution, internal organs, and changes in vitality and spirit.

After the spell was completed, He Kao's Body Observation Technique broke through to the fourth level.

Cultivation does not come out of thin air. He Kao had already practiced the Body Observation Technique and received careful instruction and guidance from Lin Qingshuang. Before this, he was already a third-level healer. Today, he simply broke through to the next level.

The unique supernatural power that one comprehends after breaking through to the fourth level of the Body Observation Technique is the ability to eliminate various negative states of oneself. In fact, the process of taking the Pure Yang Pill has a similar effect.

He Kao could explain his breakthrough in the Body Observation Technique, but his breakthrough in the Spiritual Rhinoceros Technique seemed somewhat inexplicable. It happened after the effects of the second Pure Yang Pill had been fully utilized.

This process was led by Wei Luo; the flow of divine energy and magical power was guided by Wei Luo, with He Kao merely responding and cooperating. However, after the two practiced for a while, He Kao had already grasped the basics of the Spiritual Connection Technique.

He Kao had already obtained the inheritance of the seven techniques, and his mastery of them varied. However, there were two techniques that he had not yet mastered: the Qi Observation Technique and the Spiritual Connection Technique.

The reason he hadn't even scratched the surface of the Qi Observation Technique was simple: he simply didn't have the energy to practice it yet. As for the Spiritual Connection Technique, it was different; he had genuinely put in the effort to try and cultivate it, but he still couldn't grasp the basics.

Today, having taken the elixir, I have thus entered the realm of spiritual arts.

He Kao sighed again, "The opportunities and karmic connections in spiritual practice are so mysterious and difficult to describe..."

To be honest, even a first-tier observer of the Lingxi Sect isn't particularly capable. The Lingxi Technique is not only difficult to master, but it's also not very useful at lower levels, and even if it has some applications, they are greatly limited.

At the first level of cultivation, one's senses are greatly enhanced and become extremely sharp; this applies to all types of sorcerers.

However, first-order observers can still perceive the changing trends of things. But this perception is still very superficial, and sometimes it is even difficult to distinguish whether the conclusion of the observation comes from experience or the subtlety of technique.

For example, seeing a seed and being able to tell whether it will germinate is something even an experienced person can do. The advantage of an observer is that the way they draw conclusions is more intuitive.

A viable seed will germinate differently depending on the environment and treatment it receives.

Observers don't actually have to wait for it to sprout; they can make a rough judgment simply by observing it in different environments. In fact, the Dan Ding Sect also has similar methods, only the underlying principles are different.

To put it simply, if an observer were planting flowers on their own balcony, they could immediately tell whether they had watered too much or too little, and they could also tell which flower would bloom in a few days and which melon would ripen in a few days...

This is roughly what He Kao's experience of learning the basics of Lingxi Technique was like.

Wei Luo laughed and said, "Don't underestimate the abilities of an observer. For example, they're very useful in the laboratory; they belong to the metaphysical category..."

Those who frequently pursue master's or doctoral degrees know the pain of having to fabricate data when writing papers or completing graduation projects because experimental results don't align with the intended direction.

For observers, it is not necessary to wait until the experiment is completed to judge the general trend. Although it is impossible to know the exact result, it is enough to have a general judgment.

The pain at this point becomes not knowing how to tell your mentor that their guidance is not quite right.

Wei Luo laughed as she drew circles with her finger: "I knew you were capable, but I never imagined you were this capable!"
