Primordial Era: Starting with Self-Created Mythical Great Luo Law
Chapter 17 is truly beneficial for a lifetime.
It's no wonder he spoke so profoundly—Chen Yu has already thoroughly comprehended the origin of the Great Dao, and his words contain heavenly secrets, which are not easily understood by those who are not yet perfect.
Just moments before, the five were drinking flower tea and chatting about romance in the courtyard; in the blink of an eye, before the tea had even cooled, a discussion about philosophy had begun.
After giving his instructions, Chen Yu fell silent, looking at Zhao Gongming and the Three Immortals with a gentle and calm gaze. Seeing the thoughtful expressions on their faces, he leisurely picked up his cup and took a sip of fragrant tea.
The four were deeply engrossed in the words they had just heard, repeatedly pondering the meaning Chen Yu had imparted, and comparing it with the teachings of the Tongtian Sect Leader in the past.
Gradually, a ray of light dissipated the fog in my heart, and I began to have a real understanding of that ethereal "Great Dao".
Time flies like water, and ten years have passed in a flash.
Over the past decade, Zhao Gongming, Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao, guided by the teachings passed down by their two masters, have continuously verified, reflected upon, and integrated these teachings on their path of cultivation, and have finally glimpsed their own paths.
On this day, the four of them opened their eyes at the same time, their gazes clear and their expressions firm. They looked at Chen Yu with no more doubt in their eyes, but rather with overflowing admiration.
They never expected that this usually low-key and silent senior brother would be so profound and unfathomable when discussing the Great Dao.
Chen Yu's few words enlightened them after years of hardship, surpassing even a thousand years of arduous cultivation.
They looked at the person before them. Although he appeared to be a celestial being with an ordinary aura, they knew that he was far more than he seemed.
The scene of that palm strike that slayed the two dragons is still vivid in my mind. How could a mere Celestial Immortal possess such power?
Now, his words reveal the true essence of the Great Dao, yet his cultivation remains hidden, clearly a deliberate act.
Perhaps this senior brother simply disliked showing off, preferring to conceal his cultivation level, transform into an ordinary person, travel through the primordial world, observe the myriad aspects of life, and thereby hone his own path.
Even so, the prehistoric world is treacherous, and demons roam freely. If one were to travel the world with the appearance of a celestial being, one might not be immune to covetousness and calamity.
But the four of them didn't care about any of that. All they cared about was the enlightenment they had gained that day and their respected senior brother standing before them.
"Thank you for your guidance, senior brother! Your words are more valuable than ten thousand years of arduous cultivation."
Zhao Gongming rose, straightened his clothes, composed himself, and bowed deeply to Chen Yu.
Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao also stood up, bowed respectfully, and looked devout.
"Brother Chen Yu's teachings today have enlightened my junior sister. All her previous doubts have been dispelled today, and she will benefit from them for a lifetime."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yu smiled slightly, his expression indifferent.
"If you truly gain something from this, that would be for the best. I was worried before that what I said was too profound and you would not be able to understand it."
This is not just polite talk; it comes from the heart.
At this moment, he stood at the pinnacle of the Great Dao, every gesture and word conforming to the principles of Heaven, every action containing the ultimate Dao. The Dao he spoke of was not deliberately proclaimed, but rather a natural expression.
Despite their exceptional talents, Zhao Gongming and the Three Immortals were ultimately only at the Golden Immortal level. How could they possibly fully comprehend what Chen Yu was saying?
If it weren't for the fact that the Tongtian Sect Leader had laid the foundation for them and laid out the outline of the Great Dao, they probably wouldn't have been able to understand even a single word.
Even so, what the four of them gained was only superficial and failed to grasp the core essence.
Chen Yu smiled slightly, then gazed at the four people and slowly spoke:
"Junior brothers and sisters, why don't you tell me what you have realized?"
Zhao Gongming and the Three Immortals looked at each other, then both shook their heads with wry smiles.
"Senior brother, your cultivation is profound, while our understanding is shallow. How dare we presume to discuss the Great Dao before you..."
Chen Yu listened, still smiling.
"There is no need to be reserved. There are countless paths to enlightenment, and everyone sees them differently. Although I embarked on this path a little earlier, you all have your own perspectives and insights."
"Why don't you share your understanding of the Great Dao? I'll listen attentively."
Upon hearing this, the four exchanged glances. Zhao Gongming looked at Chen Yu, took a deep breath, and spoke calmly.
"Since Senior Brother has given the order, then Junior Brother will humbly offer his opinion, despite his limited knowledge."
His gaze swept over the three of them, his voice calm yet firm.
"What I have come to understand is the Way of the Wind."
"The wind is formless and invisible, it comes and goes without a trace, yet it permeates heaven and earth and is omnipresent."
"It is not bound by form or position; it arises from circumstances and moves with the tide."
"Whether on the mountaintop, in the secluded valley, or in the highest heavens, the traces of the wind can be found everywhere."
"When in motion, it sweeps across the eight directions; when still, it is utterly silent; in both motion and stillness, the Dao's mechanism is contained."
After Zhao Gongming finished speaking, Chen Yu listened silently, his mind already fully comprehending the truth. Although he had only heard the teachings for the first time, he already understood their essence.
There are countless paths, each with its own origin, yet all things ultimately lead to oneness, reflecting and illuminating one another. Borrowing the paths of others to enlighten one's own mind is also a wonderful way to cultivate oneself.
After speaking, Zhao Gongming turned his gaze to Chen Yu, awaiting a response.
Chen Yu looked back and smiled, his eyes filled with approval.
"The Way of Wind is indeed a superior choice. If one can cultivate it to its ultimate level, one can also reach a high realm."
After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Yunxiao.
Yunxiao smiled slightly, then stood up and said softly:
"Senior brother, junior sister's cultivation lies in the art of formations."
"The key to formation lies in the harmony of timing, location, and human factors."
"With these three, the power of the formation will increase twice, enabling it to seize the opportunities of heaven and earth and usurp the power of creation."
"What is the Way of Formations?"
"It means borrowing the power of heaven and earth, transforming the laws into warp and weft, setting up formations to enter the Dao, and finally reaching the state of unity between the formation and oneself."
As she explained in detail, her understanding of formations continued to deepen.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yu's eyes flickered slightly. He had not expected that Yunxiao would embark on the path of array formations.
However, upon thinking of the "Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation" she would later set up, she couldn't help but smile.
In a short while, Chen Yu had fully grasped the profound mystery of the Dao.
Now, he has long since grasped the fundamental principles of the laws of heaven and earth, thus he can draw inferences from one instance to another and understand all laws from one instance.
No matter what kind of great path you speak of, as long as you explain it to him, he will instantly grasp its fundamental meaning.
He quietly watched Yunxiao continue her storytelling, gazing at her exquisite and refined face. He slowly sipped his flower tea, his expression leisurely, as if he were savoring the tea or appreciating the scenery.
The endless East Sea, on the Three Immortals Island.
After Yunxiao finished speaking, he turned to Chen Yu, a slight smile playing on his lips.
"Senior brother, please forgive my ignorance. I hope you can offer some guidance on my understanding."
Chen Yu chuckled softly, calmly picked up the jade cup, took a sip of fragrant tea, and then slowly spoke:
"The way of formations is to draw upon the power of heaven and earth for one's own use, to unite the formation with the Dao, and ultimately the body becomes the formation, and the formation becomes the body. It is indeed a wonderful path."
"After listening to what my junior sister said, I have a rough idea in mind for a new formation, which is still in the process of being perfected."
Upon hearing this, Yunxiao's eyes immediately lit up.
She understood that Chen Yu was responding to her path of cultivation—because of the array formations she practiced, he had specially deduced a method that he wished to pass on to her.
Given Chen Yu's cultivation and comprehension, he must have fully understood everything I just said.
Having thought of this, Yunxiao no longer hesitated and immediately bowed to ask for guidance:
"Since you have such a plan, senior brother, please enlighten me. May I ask what kind of grand formation it is?"
