I will teach you how to cultivate immortality

Chapter 410 Taiyi Golden Elixir, the Universe in the Palm of One's Hand (23)

When Li Boyang's physical body completed its transformation, he also broke through the Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness stage.

He suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of comfort.

The essence, energy, and spirit circulate perfectly, helping each other to climb to even higher levels.

The immortal body produces an endless supply of vital energy...

The vast amount of vital energy was directly transformed into [Mysterious Yellow Qi]...

The [Primordial Qi] will then reforge the primordial spirit into an indestructible Yang spirit...

This is a realm that cannot be reached by a single path to perfection; it is an ultimate state that can only be reached by the mutual assistance and cooperation of essence, energy, and spirit.

Normally, vital energy is the essence of the physical body.

Ordinary people must undergo years of cultivation, along with various dietary supplements and elixirs, to continuously refine their vital energy.

This is what is known as "refining essence into qi".

Once the vital energy is strong enough to feed back into the physical body, the next step is to first awaken the consciousness and manifest the primordial spirit.

Then, use your primordial spirit to perceive the workings of heaven and earth, transform the primordial energy of heaven and earth into your own, and cultivate the Yin and Yang spirits that can interfere with the material world.

This is what is known as "refining Qi into spirit".

When any of the three cultivations—physical body, vital energy, or primordial spirit—is cultivated to its ultimate state, it will transform from existence to non-existence and be reduced to emptiness.

Emptiness is nothingness, and nothingness is nothingness, symbolizing the impermanent changes of the Great Dao.

If the physical body is "empty," one will live forever, maintaining a peak state and being extremely sensitive to changes in oneself and the outside world.

When one's vital energy is "deficient," supernatural powers are at one's whim; one can effortlessly employ a thousand spells and myriad transformations, reaching a level of profound understanding and control over the vital energy of heaven and earth.

The primordial spirit, being "empty," can manifest in countless forms and be omnipresent. From this point on, there is no place in the vast world that one cannot go; the ends of the earth are but a stone's throw away.

This is what is known as "refining the spirit to return to emptiness".

All three of these methods are "refining the spirit and returning to emptiness," and there is no distinction between high and low, superior and inferior.

However, Li Boyang's current state is different from the usual "refining spirit and returning to emptiness", but rather the "golden elixir realm" after the three paths are perfected.

Gold is indestructible, and cinnabar is perfect.

Essence gives birth to Qi, Qi manifests as Shen (spirit), and Shen in turn feeds back to essence.

The three elements circulate and regenerate endlessly, enabling Li Boyang to reach a supreme state of being independent of heaven and earth.

As the saying goes, if a golden elixir is swallowed, my destiny is determined by me.

When essence, energy, and spirit are perfectly integrated, it is like the chaos at the beginning of the universe, becoming one with the Dao, which is called "Taiyi".

—Taiyi is the pure Tao, residing in the deepest and most subtle, yet permeating heaven and earth.

—It is established by the constant non-existence, and governed by the Great One.

The Dao is the ultimate essence, which cannot be given form or name. If we force a name upon it, we call it Taiyi (Great One).

All things come from the One and will return to the One.

The so-called Taiyi is the ultimate "Tao-transformation" that an individual can manifest, which is the manifestation of the Great Tao of Heaven and Earth in an individual.

Those who achieve this elixir naturally obtain the "Taiyi Golden Elixir".

Compared to the Eclipse Lord's state of "the world is gone, but I stand alone".

Li Boyang is now in a much better state, having achieved a kind of self-circulation rather than simply being isolated from the world.

Once this realm is achieved, his cultivation and spiritual attainment will increase constantly.

It can be said to truly transcend the Three Realms and be outside the Five Elements.

Most importantly, none of Li Boyang's vital energy or spirit was a weakness.

This means that his future path of "unifying the three paths and refining the void to unite with the Dao" will be incredibly smooth, with almost no barriers to entry.

——The One is the Tao.

"call!"

When Li Boyang actively adjusted his breathing and opened his eyes again.

The battle between the Vermilion Bird and the remnants of the Heavenly Emperor has entered a fierce and stalemate, causing earth-shattering changes throughout the entire Ruins of Return. Heaven and earth are collapsing, and the world is being destroyed.

This is no longer just a simple adjective; it's a fact that's happening right now.

Only the [Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda] seemed to be a pillar of this shattered world, barely maintaining the existence of the world itself.

As the battle continued, Li Boyang could clearly see that Zhuque was gradually losing ground.

Even with the blessing of twelve fire orbs...

Even if one could set up the Nanming Li Fire Grand Array to summon the [Nanming Li Fire]...

Suzaku is ultimately just a newly born god, and he is not yet able to fully control his own power.

In contrast, although the Heavenly Emperor's remains were merely fragments formed from the remains of Hao Jun after his death, the combat experience etched into his very bones was far beyond what ordinary gods could match.

With the balance of power shifting, it was only natural that the Vermilion Bird would fall into a disadvantageous position.

"You all leave here first, leave the rest to me!"

After glancing at the Vermilion Bird, Li Boyang quickly turned his gaze to Xi Luo and Shi Tianjun near the [Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda].

Before Xi Luo and Shi Tianjun could react, a golden halo unfolded beneath their feet.

On the other side of that halo, there was the sky above the Hundred Mountains.

"What kind of supernatural power is this!?"

Upon seeing this golden ring that transcends time and space and ignores the boundaries of distance, the Heavenly Lord instinctively widened his eyes.

He realized that he had only been away from the Hundred Mountains for a few short years.

The various abilities and methods that Li Boyang possessed were completely beyond my comprehension.

In particular, the [Universe Ring] has directly opened up a passage between the two worlds, allowing one to travel freely between the Ruins of Return and the present world.

"It's the Qiankun Ring. You'll find out later."

Without any mercy, Xi Luo kicked Shi Tianjun into the light circle. This time, her reaction speed was quite fast.

"Baby, we'll be going now. Don't push yourself!"

After receiving Li Boyang's affirmative nod, Xi Luo also entered the [Qiankun Circle].

The next second, as the [Universe Ring] disappeared, a golden ring appeared above the Vermilion Bird's head.

However, compared to before, the golden ring on Suzaku's head is much larger and continues to expand.

What is reflected on the other end of the golden ring is not the Hundred Mountains, but the even more expansive South China Sea.

After all, given Suzaku's current size and power, if it were to appear above the Hyakuchi Mountains, it would undoubtedly cause unimaginable disaster.

"Wow!"

The Vermilion Bird clearly understood Li Boyang's meaning, and immediately spread its wings and rushed into the [Universe Circle].

The entire process was smooth and seamless, fully demonstrating Zhuque's trust in Li Boyang.

Of course, having already exhausted all his strength and being unable to hold on any longer was also a major reason why Suzaku chose to leave the battlefield without hesitation.

call!
Seeing his opponent escape, the remnant body of the Heavenly Emperor, filled with resentment, instinctively flapped its wings.

In an instant, raging fire, water, and wind surged into the sky, seemingly wanting to follow the Vermilion Bird down to the South China Sea.

At this critical moment, spacetime on the other side of the [Universe Circle] suddenly changed.

Suddenly, a gigantic hand appeared out of thin air and then swiftly emerged from the [Universe Circle].

boom!
For Li Boyang, who had mastered the [Universe Ring],

Changing the spacetime coordinates of the [Qiankun Circle] in an instant is not difficult at all.

Even that giant, crimson hand wasn't created by Li Boyang using any supernatural power.

He simply put his palm into the [Universe Circle], and the giant hand that reaches the sky appeared on the other end.

The power of spacetime is not just about location coordinates.

Size is also a manifestation of the power of spacetime.
