The primordial era began with the mythological age.

Chapter 22 Pure Yuan True Qi (Seeking recommendations and monthly tickets for further reading)

The grand plan was decided.

This time, instead of taking out the treasures one by one, the Giant Spirit took them all out at once.

The Qilin clan is not much different from the Dragon and Phoenix clans; they are also a wealthy innate race, residing near Tianzhu Zhou Mountain.

One gourd each containing the Qi of the innate Earth element (戊土) and the innate Earth element (己土).

This was acquired through a special transaction.

In authentic cultivation, all kinds of innate five elements are indispensable.

A piece of innate black jade can be used to condense the energy of the earth and refine the innate earth element.

A pot of innate five-colored soil, this spiritual soil is born of the five elements, and can be continuously propagated by the innate five elements' energy.

One Heavenly Evil Bead, which can suppress and collect the evil energy of the earth.

The above information comes from the Qilin clan.

The White Tiger clan possesses a piece of innate Geng metal and a gourd of innate Geng metal energy.

However, although there were few items, they were of excellent quality.

The Celestial Lion Clan, on the other hand, only received a piece of Innate Magnetic Divine Iron and a gourd of Azure Jade Divine Water in exchange.

The former is naturally a treasure for refining divine artifacts and spiritual treasures, while the latter, although not innate divine water, can heal injuries, increase magical power, and can also be used to purify bloodline and magical power, and refine the primordial spirit. It has quite a few wonderful uses.

Finally, the Giant Spirit took out a golden talisman and said with a smile, "Brother, take a look!"

Upon looking at it, Taiyi realized that it was the Nine Breaths Breathing Talisman that he had written earlier.

The talisman used was also made from the first batch of yellow paper, and now it has gained some merit, making it quite different from the original.

However, it did not transform into the Xuanhuang Yiqi Talisman.

"This talisman has transformed into a magical talisman!"

"Giant Spirit laughed."

In other words, these are not disposable paper talismans?

Taiyi was slightly surprised, but couldn't help but exclaim, "The Primordial Qi of Xuanhuang contains the power of creation; it is truly extraordinary!"

Giant Spirit nodded in deep agreement: "That's natural, otherwise why would the primordial gods and demons tirelessly pursue the merits of Xuanhuang?"

Taiyi thought for a moment and said, "Brother, please wait a moment."

Having said that, he took a piece of yellow paper, picked up a brush in front of his desk, and wrote the Xuanhuang Yiqi Talisman on the paper. Then he handed it to Juling Shi and said, "Brother, this method is called Xuanhuang Yiqi Talisman. I suddenly realized it when I obtained the Xuanhuang Merit and used the Nine Breaths Breathing Method."

"Now that the Nine Breaths Breathing Talisman has become a talisman treasure, it may be used to refine a talisman weapon."

"The Xuanhuang Yiqi Talisman can refine all spiritual energy and essence in the world; it can also transform all spiritual energy and essence in the world to aid in cultivation, making it quite useful!"

Upon hearing this, the Giant Spirit was overjoyed: "Excellent magic!"

"Haha, then I won't be polite."

He then put away the Xuanhuang Yiqi Talisman written by Taiyi and said, "Brother, you should cultivate diligently. I will return to Longmen Peak first."

After saying that, he turned and left.

After seeing off Julingshi, Taiyishi sat down at his desk, sorted out his thoughts, and focused his attention on his dantian.

Previously, the Xuanhuang Qi Talisman had devoured all the essence in the dantian, and now it has finally completed its refining process.

The talisman, shaped like a chicken egg, cracked open, releasing strands of crimson gold essence.

The purity of these strands of essence far surpassed that of the past, exceeding even Taiyi's expectations.

Pure and flawless, crystal naturally contains the energy to ward off evil spirits.

Taiyi immediately had a thought, and his crimson gold essence immediately emerged from his dantian, circulating throughout his body, devouring and transforming all the abundant essence contained in the acupoints of his body.

However, even though his essence was incredibly abundant, the growth of his crimson gold essence was extremely slow.

When all his vital essence was transformed and circulated throughout his body, a roar arose within him, and his muscles, bones, flesh, and internal organs were all tempered and transformed.

In an instant, Taiyi Shi radiated a crimson-gold light, flawless and immaculate, with wisps of innate energy emerging.

When he channeled the Crimson Gold Essence into his Purple Mansion, he gained profound insight, and the subtle sensations of his internal organs and the workings of his body resurfaced in his mind, reviving all his instincts once again.

Reach stillness and tranquility, free from thought and desire, and you will understand your true nature!

However, at this moment, Taiyi showed neither joy nor sorrow. His primordial spirit opened its mouth and inhaled, and the crimson gold essence gathered into a stream of air that flowed into its mouth and was swallowed by the primordial spirit in one gulp.

Immediately, his primordial spirit also transformed, becoming a nine-headed human with a snake tail, covered in five-colored dragon scales.

However, it is the visualized image of the human emperor.

However, the face is still that of Tai Yi himself.

However, apart from the five-colored dragon scales covering its body, this Dharma form is merely a shell.

Even so, the primordial spirit absorbed the essence of crimson gold and cultivated it through visualization. When it stopped cultivating, it had grown by more than an inch.

"The energy expenditure is too high..."

Taiyi looked at his empty body and clicked his tongue in amazement, but felt overjoyed at the powerful primordial spirit.

This short period of cultivation was equivalent to several years of his past practice.

After being refined by the Xuanhuang Yiqi Talisman, the essence underwent an extraordinary transformation, going beyond mere purity.

His physical body has now been transformed, and it contains innate vital energy.

Even though his vital essence was greatly depleted, his physical strength was still greater than before.

"Moreover, my essence also has the wonderful function of enlightening the mind and seeing one's true nature."

"That's the most amazing part!"

Tai Yi's expression was solemn.

If people find out about this, he'll probably be seen as "easy prey."

It should be understood that even innate gods and demons can have their true nature obscured at times.

"My essence seems to have acquired some characteristics of the Primordial Chaos Merit... no, it should be some characteristics of the Primordial Chaos Mother Qi."

"It is both the essence of life and the power of creation, and it is in harmony with the Dao, so it can be called the Dao Qi..."

Taiyi looked down at the essence that swirled around his fingertips like a small snake, and wondered, "Have I forged a new path?"

Thinking it over, he took a sea pearl from the Dragon Clan, pointed his finger at the pearl, and used the Pot Heaven Technique.

A space immediately opened up within the pearl, measuring a hundred zhang in size, far surpassing the space he had previously created within the Dragon Abyss Pearl.

Although this sea pearl is of higher quality than the Dragon Abyss pearl, given that his Heavenly Pot Technique has not improved much, the Crimson Gold Essence clearly played a significant role.

"It can amplify the power of Taoist magic and supernatural abilities, and also aid in weapon crafting..."

The more Taiyi explored, the more mysterious he discovered about his own Crimson Gold Essence.

"The Primordial Qi is the primordial Qi of Heaven and Earth, the Qi of the Dao. And my essence should be the primordial Qi of the human body."

"To distinguish truth from falsehood, to understand one's true nature, and to attain one's true self—this can be called the fundamental Dao Qi!"

Taiyi defined the nature of this newly cultivated essence as follows: "It should be called Pure Yuan True Qi. This Qi removes falsehood and preserves truth, enabling one to understand one's mind and see one's true nature."

"This Qi is pure and immaculate, repelling evil spirits, enhancing Taoist arts and supernatural powers, nourishing the primordial spirit, and can also be used for alchemy and weapon crafting; its wondrous uses are endless!"

While refining the pure primordial true qi that had been almost completely depleted by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, Taiyi's gaze fell on the five elements true qi he was cultivating.

The essence of the Five Elements True Qi is the Qi of one's own five internal organs and the innate Five Elements spiritual Qi, which is condensed into five Dao talismans cultivated through the supernatural power of the Innate Five-Colored Divine Light.

The Qi of the five internal organs is one of the Qi among the three treasures of human essence, Qi and spirit.

The essence he cultivated transformed into pure primordial qi, and with this, he underwent a complete transformation. Consequently, the qi of his five internal organs would also undergo changes.

Taiyi is very much looking forward to it.
