Yuantian Pidao

Chapter 380 Primordial Qi Embryo

At Wuchang Sect and Diancui Mountain, a month quietly passed.

The grotto at Songtao Cliff is filled with spiritual light, but its gates are tightly shut.

Inside the cave, black and white spiritual light intertwined, transforming into a wondrous flower that protected Jiang Chen within.

At a certain moment, a sudden inspiration struck Jiang Chen, who was constantly circulating the True Understanding of Primordial Qi and grasped that glimmer of inspiration.

"The foundation for cultivating the Dao is laid today."

With a burst of thoughts in his mind, Jiang Chen opened his mouth and inhaled all the spiritual energy in the sky.

With a thunderous roar, a surge of powerful spiritual energy merged with the spiritual aperture, and Jiang Chen's Dao foundation began to condense.

Time passed, and after an unknown amount of time, the mysterious changes arising from the Formless True Qi within Jiang Chen's Qi Sea began to resonate with the mysterious changes contained within the Impermanent Flower. The two drew closer and closer, trying to merge into one. However, just as the two began to truly merge, a conflict occurred.

Although both involve change, there are still differences between them.

"Seek common ground while reserving differences, and use your divine power to suppress this!"

Sensing the anomaly, Jiang Chen unleashed his powerful divine soul force.

In that instant, relying on his powerful divine soul force, as if unraveling a cocoon, Jiang Chen continuously unraveled the mysteries of the two changes.

In this situation, the conflict between the two was effectively contained, preventing the subtle changes from being lost and causing any regrets.

And so, after the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the two mysteries intertwined and transformed into a blurry light. Sometimes it turned into a fish, sometimes into a dragon, sometimes into a mountain, sometimes into water, ever-changing and unpredictable.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief; the most troublesome hurdle was over.

Spiritual treasures are treasures of heaven and earth, possessing their own mysteries and manifesting the laws of heaven and earth. However, spiritual treasures also vary and have limits. Even the best spiritual treasures cannot support a cultivator to directly condense a flawless Dao foundation. This is a limitation of heaven and earth.

To break through the limitations, cultivators must transform into top-grade true qi and generate profound mysteries. Only when the two are combined can there be a chance, which is also the foundation for achieving a flawless Dao foundation.

However, this is only one possibility, because under normal circumstances, when cultivators refine spiritual treasures to forge their Dao foundation, they will more or less lose the mysteries of heaven and earth contained in the spiritual treasures. It is precisely because of this that it is difficult to achieve a high-grade Dao foundation.

"When the three elements converge, the foundation of the Dao is established."

Reflecting all the changes in his mind, and after achieving a profound resonance, Jiang Chen began to use his Qi as a guide to gather his three treasures.

With a whoosh, relying on the nine-inch spiritual aperture, nourished by the three treasures of essence, energy, and spirit, and supported by the mysteries of transformation, a chaotic primordial embryo, shaped like a chicken egg, began to condense and take shape in Jiang Chen's sea of ​​qi.

This primordial embryo seems to encompass everything, possessing a wondrous all-encompassing nature, mysterious beyond mystery.

At this very moment, under the nurturing of the primordial embryo, Jiang Chen's true energy completely transformed into spiritual power, and his physical body also began to further transform, washing away its mortal nature and transforming into a spiritual body.

Looking around, Jiang Chen's flesh and blood were constantly transforming into beautiful jade, surrounded by pure white spiritual light, extraordinary and otherworldly. When Jiang Chen's body completely transformed into a body of white jade, his aura began to surge wildly. The powerful pressure spread continuously, causing the protective formation of the cave to tremble. Fortunately, at the crucial moment, Jiang Chen's mind returned to clarity, and he restrained his oppressive aura.

"The foundation of the Dao is flawless. After so much polishing, we have finally taken this step."

With the foundation of his Dao achieved, Jiang Chen felt a transformation within himself, and his heart was filled with joy. In that instant, he could clearly feel that he had become much closer to heaven and earth, as if a bridge had been built between the two.

The Dao Foundation, also known as the Bridge Between Heaven and Earth, is divided into upper, middle, and lower grades. The upper grade is called Flawless. Once a Flawless Dao Foundation is achieved, the barrier between the cultivator and heaven and earth will be greatly reduced, which will greatly benefit the cultivator's subsequent comprehension of the laws of heaven and earth.

The defining ability of those with flawless Dao Foundation is their ability to remain in a spiritualized state. Whenever they wish, they can enter this state, drawing upon the power of heaven and earth without fear of backlash, until their own power is exhausted.

"The Primordial Dao Foundation and the Primordial Qi Embryo are the foundation I have built and the innate divine abilities I have acquired."

Reflecting on himself, and looking at the primordial embryo floating and sinking in his own sea of ​​qi, Jiang Chen had an epiphany.

This primordial embryo is both a reflection of his Dao foundation and a manifestation of the innate supernatural powers he has acquired.

"A high-grade Dao Foundation can obtain a natal spiritual technique. This spiritual technique is naturally compatible with the cultivator and does not require deliberate cultivation. As long as the cultivation level increases, the cultivator can reveal more of the mysteries of the natal spiritual technique until it reaches perfection."

"Given the right opportunity, after advancing to the Purple Mansion realm, cultivators can use this innate spiritual technique as a foundation to develop treasure techniques or even Dao techniques. It is said that many spells in the human race originated from this."

"If even a superior Dao Foundation is like this, let alone a flawless Dao Foundation. A flawless one is close to the Dao, and once forged, one can obtain a certain innate ability. Compared to one's innate spiritual technique, this innate ability has fewer restrictions and higher growth potential."

"Theoretically speaking, as long as a cultivator's cultivation level continues to break through, the extraordinary nature of this talent will become stronger and stronger, comparable to a precious technique, a Dao technique, or even an immortal technique. Of course, this is just theory. Talent often has its limits, but these limits are quite high, and ordinary cultivators simply cannot reach them."

As Jiang Chen carefully examined the Primordial Qi Embryo, various thoughts flashed through his mind.

As an innate supernatural power, the Primordial Qi currently has two mysteries: one is fetal breathing, and the other is primordial energy.

Those who practice fetal breathing concentrate their breath to achieve gentleness, like an infant. Once they enter this state, Jiang Chen will naturally enter a meditative state, with a calm mind and no distracting thoughts. He is unlikely to suffer from qi deviation or demonic possession. Moreover, those who practice fetal breathing return to their original nature, with a long and continuous breath, which strengthens their foundation and nourishes their vital energy, and can extend their lifespan to a certain extent.

Most importantly, this state is almost innate, giving one the opportunity to enter the realm of harmony between man and nature.

As for the Primordial Qi, the origin of all things is called the Primordial Qi. With the help of this profound mystery, Jiang Chen can refine all kinds of spiritual objects to nourish his own Primordial Embryo. While strengthening the Primordial Embryo, he can condense more Primordial Qi. This Primordial Qi is the root of life. Theoretically speaking, as long as there is enough Primordial Qi, even if the physical body is completely damaged, Jiang Chen can use Primordial Qi to reshape a new one.

As for healing physical injuries and regenerating severed limbs, that's not difficult at all.

"It assists in cultivation, helps in understanding the laws and comprehending the Dao, and the two profound mysteries brought by the Primordial Qi are both quite good."

"Putting aside the fetal breathing, which is subtle and gentle, its mystery needs time to manifest. The primordial energy, on the other hand, is much more direct. It not only brings me convenience in combat but also adds a layer of protection. The physical body is a precious raft for crossing the world. Immortal cultivation is closely related to the physical body and cannot be easily damaged."

As he carefully felt the profound mystery of his own innate divine ability, Jiang Chen's smile grew even wider. With the blessing of this innate divine ability, his cultivation path would undoubtedly be much smoother from now on.
