From a carp to a dragon god

Chapter 130 Thirteen Escape Methods

Although the name of Baihe Zizhidun contains the word "dun", it is actually just a technique of invisibility, which allows people to become invisible through the rituals of Baihe Talisman and Zizhi Talisman.

There are many ways to escape, and their power inevitably varies. The powerful ones can travel thousands of miles in an instant, while the useless ones can just stand still and hide.

The White Crane and Purple Ganoderma Escape are two methods of dual cultivation. The White Crane Escape and the Purple Ganoderma Escape can be said to be very advanced escape methods. Unfortunately, in terms of legal theory, they tend to be more like the art of escape and invisibility.

To put it simply, the White Crane and Purple Ganoderma Escape is like writing an article that starts well but ends poorly. It sets out to be a great way of escaping the world, but unexpectedly downgrades itself to a tricky method of hiding and becoming invisible.

Fortunately, Yu Shuyang was not going to learn the art of escape. He was deducing the technique for Lingzhi Tuliu. The purple ganoderma talisman in Baihe Zizhi's escape involved the purple ganoderma true shape talisman.

There are six colors of Ganoderma lucidum: red, white, black, gold, green and purple. Only purple is the most valuable, as the saying goes: The nobles are the most valuable.

People who observe qi ranked purple as the first grade, and considered purple to be the aura of emperors and nobles in human destiny, which could only be obtained by emperors, ministers, and sages.

Therefore, the reason why purple ganoderma can become invisible is to use the purple energy to change bad luck. The purple ganoderma talisman is the talisman to change bad luck. The human body transforms into purple ganoderma and becomes invisible.

The more Yu Shuyang studied it, the more strange it seemed to him. The intention of this method was very high. Whether it was the White Crane Escape or the Purple Ganoderma Purple Qi, the method of cultivation was just a magic.

"Junior brother, why is this White Crane and Purple Ganoderma Escape so strange? It's so high up as if it's in the clouds, but it lands so low as if it's in a mud pit. It's really weird."

Li Taiping looked over with a bit of confusion, and paused for a moment before he thought of the White Crane and Purple Ganoderma escape technique.

It’s no wonder that he has a bad memory. It took most of the day from the time he placed the spiritual spring to the time he returned to the thatched cottage in Mohe Pond, and he was thinking about transplanting the water hyacinth.

"Brother, this White Crane Purple Ganoderma Escape Technique has a great origin. It is said to have been created by an enlightened immortal named Han from the Upper Cave Immortal Realm.

"It's designed specifically to support disciples who have just begun their practice. Because the practice method is very simple, it's widely circulated," Li Taiping explained.

Before the Great Sage Xiantian Daode attained enlightenment, he left behind countless Taoist traditions, and there are descendants who have attained enlightenment and become immortals in all the heavens and realms.

The inheritance of various Taoist methods is complicated and it is difficult to discuss the relationship between them. When going to the Qingjing Palace of Daode Tian to listen to lectures, they are divided into the upper, middle and lower caves of immortality according to their seating order.

"I see. I was wondering why it felt like it started strong but ended poorly. The Dharma's purpose is so noble, but the method of cultivation is just a secluded technique. There's a world of difference.

If Tu Liu practices the White Crane and Purple Ganoderma escape technique, his future achievements will be too low. If he deduces the technique based on this method, he will need to find a few more escape techniques."

Yu Shuyang couldn't help but sigh. Come to think of it, to cast the White Crane and Purple Ganoderma escape spell, one needs to sacrifice two talismans. This is a magic method to protect oneself and avoid disasters.

The method of entering the Tao and practicing is crucial, as it determines the upper limit of future achievements. The method he deduced for the Candle Fire Spirit Wanjia is also at the first level of magic.

"If you are asking about the method of escape, it is much simpler than Zhixian's method of cultivation. I happen to know the thirteen methods of escape in the Great Cavern Sutra." Li Taiping said happily.

The Dadong Sutra is a general term, which records the theories of the upper, middle and lower caves of immortality, and the content involved is all-encompassing.

The Thirteen Escape Methods cover a very wide range of areas, and can almost be called the Taoist Escape Methods. They are divided into two parts: the Five Elements Escape Method and the Eight Escape Methods.

The Five Elements Escape Techniques are Gold Escape, Wood Escape, Water Escape, Fire Escape, and Earth Escape. Practitioners cast spells based on their own Five Elements destiny.

For example, Yu Shuyang has the element of water in his destiny and the element of gold in his element, so he can practice the two techniques of gold and water. He can use the objects of gold and water to escape into the void. In the end, he can reverse the five elements and travel back and forth between the five elements.

However, his foundation in Taoism has already been determined, so he has no problem practicing the gold and water escape techniques. If he wants to practice the five elements escape technique, he has to cleanse his foundation in Taoism and start from scratch.

Of course, if he had been given the choice, he would not have practiced the art of invisibility. The Five Elements Escape sounds very powerful, but how many people can practice it to the point of reversing the Five Elements?
Entering the Taoist practice is like climbing a mountain. Walking along the well-maintained stone steps, everything has a traceable path. As long as you are willing to work hard, you will eventually reach the top.

If it were rock climbing, regardless of the risks involved, many people would collapse halfway through. In comparison, he wouldn't choose a similar training method. The Eight Form Escape Techniques are similar to the White Crane and Purple Ganoderma Escape Techniques, both of which involve concealment and invisibility. The eight techniques are: Human Escape, Bird Escape, Beast Escape, Insect Escape, Fish Escape, Grass Escape, Wind Escape, and Cloud Escape.

Yu Shuyang was surprised to find that he had heard of these eight methods of invisibility in his previous life, and they were exactly the same as the seventy-two transformations practiced by a powerful person.

Then he thought that escaping and transforming are fundamentally different. Escaping is a way of hiding, and it does not require changing the true form of the body like the transformation method.

The Thirteen Form-Escape Methods are a way of seeking the truth through magic. The Five Elements Form-Escape Method and the Eight Form-Escape Methods are all magic. Their ultimate goal is to seek the great way of form-escape.

It can be said to be a method that directly points to the true nature of the Tao. If you use this method to enter the Tao and cultivate immortality, you can forget about escaping the calamity and ascending to heaven without extraordinary talent.

Just by looking at Li Taiping, who didn't practice this method, one can understand the difficulty involved.

Yu Shuyang couldn't help but laugh at himself in his heart, wondering how many immortals could escape the calamity and ascend to heaven. He thought back to the time when he had spent nine and a half years deducing the exercises in order to practice the three methods together.

It turns out that he must keep a distance from the nouveau riche. When will a method that leads directly to the great way become his turn to be picky?

His mind instantly relaxed, and Yu Shuyang put the Purple Ganoderma True Shape Talisman, the Yin-Yang Wu Ji Earth Evil Prohibition used to refine the Five Ganoderma Yaocao Sword, and the Thirteen Escape Techniques into the Black Tortoise Book.

The true form of the Black Tortoise Book split into two parts, turning into a millstone for the movement of the sky and the earth to deduce the exercises. However, the borrowed divine power from the stars could not even move the millstone.

This was something Yu Shuyang had never thought of.

Come to think of it, the Thirteen Escape Techniques were obtained from the Three Caves of Immortality's theories, and each of them has the ability to escape disaster and ascend to heaven.

It is extremely difficult to modify a method that directly leads to the great Dao. It is like adding sand to a bag of rice. At this time, Yu Shuyang cannot even open the bag of rice.

If he wanted to continue the deduction, all he could do now was to abandon some of his skills, open the rice bag first, and then consider adding a few handfuls of sand.

Yu Shuyang repeatedly weighed the pros and cons and felt that removing the eight methods of escape would also reduce the difficulty of entering the ninth level of Taoism, and that the five elements of escape were consistent with the five Zhi.

Tuliu is the incarnation of six-colored Ganoderma lucidum, and its body has the attributes of the five elements. It is very effective when practicing the five elements escape technique. You don’t need to practice to the point of reversing the five elements to still be able to travel through the five elements.

When you let go of a thought, you suddenly feel that the world is wide open. This is how Yu Shuyang feels at this moment.

Suddenly everything became clear to him. Without the Eight Formless Escape Techniques, the Black Tortoise Book could barely be used for calculations, but it was very slow.

Fortunately, he was not in a hurry. After all, there was no use being impatient. He could only wait slowly. However, there was still an opportunity to borrow strength.

"Junior brother, let me ask you a question. When transplanting water hyacinths to perform the Beidou secret method, can I, standing in Tianquan's position, borrow the power of the star god to practice the method?" Yu Shuyang asked.

He borrowed the power of the two star gods Xu and Shi, relying on the Dharma bodies of the two gods. A few days ago, Wenquxing entered his life, and he could borrow more power from the star gods.

“Brother, you are in a position of celestial authority to help me share the power of the stars, so naturally you must borrow the power of the Star God to get through.

However, the pressure of the Gangbu Dudou is very great, and it is difficult to practice magic with the added power of the stars."

Li Taiping thought about it and felt that it was unlikely. The power of the stars was as heavy as a mountain. It was not easy to keep the mind steady, let alone practice magic.

　I started writing at 5am in the morning, I didn't even have lunch, and I'm still writing now. Oh my god!! It's getting harder and harder the more I write.
