The primordial era began with the mythological age.

Chapter 4: The Human Emperor's Visualization Diagram, the Innate Sword Embryo! (New book, please support!)

In the small hall.

Taiyi reviewed what Wulong had said, analyzed it carefully, and made sure he understood it completely before putting it aside and turning his attention back to himself.

In the Purple Mansion, the primordial spirit looked up at the two suspended beams of light, as bright as the sun.

These two items were none other than the gifts bestowed upon them by the Emperor when they were in the Miro Palace.

Taiyi's restraint in waiting until now to examine the matter demonstrates his composure. He then impatiently reached out and struck, and one of the streaks immediately fell and entered the space between the eyebrows of the primordial spirit.

In an instant, a magnificent image appeared in Taiyi's consciousness.

"Milo Palace!"

Taiyi was shaken to his core, and then realized that the Miro Palace he saw was even more real than what he had seen with his own eyes before.

And it can be observed from various angles.

Not only can you see the Lingxiao Palace, but you can also see the second palace, the Tongming Palace, and the third palace, the Huangji Palace.

Within the reach of consciousness, every detail is revealed, and the essence of Tao is hidden within.

"This is visualization!"

Taiyi was overjoyed.

This was not the first time he had encountered the visualization method. Previously, the Five Dragons Clan had bestowed upon him the "Five Dragons Refining the Dao Diagram," which was also a method of enlightenment through visualization.

However, he contemplated the Dharma forms of the Five Dragons, comprehended the profound Dao contained within them, condensed and strengthened his primordial spirit, comprehended the Great Dao, and condensed divine talismans to become a god.

This is also the most common path to godhood taken by many acquired beings and some innate beings in the primordial world.

"What are your thoughts on the Miro Palace?"

Taiyi was secretly delighted.

The Mi Luo Palace is, after all, the Daoist temple of the Human Emperor, and is extremely extraordinary. This visualization method is probably much more exquisite than the "Five Dragons Refining the Dao Diagram".

Previously, the Giant Spirit Clan had stated that the Five Dragon Clan was now at the level of a God Emperor.

And what about the Human Emperor?

He is a god-level being above the God Emperor, and also the number one god-level being in all the heavens and realms of the Three Realms. He is the emperor of all gods and the Great Luo!

Although it's only a difference of one realm, the gap is probably more than 108,000 miles.

However, Taiyi suddenly had a thought, and his consciousness couldn't help but probe into the Lingxiao Palace, where he immediately saw an extremely majestic Dharma image appear.

It has nine heads, a human body, a snake tail, and is covered in five-colored dragon scales!

Taiyi couldn't help but swallow hard: "The Dharma Image of the Human Emperor..."

"This is a visualization of the Human Emperor!"

At this moment, Taiyi was overjoyed.

This means that he has inherited the throne of the Human Emperor.

If one can fully comprehend the profound mysteries contained in this "Human Emperor Contemplation Diagram", perhaps one's cultivation level can be comparable to that of the current Human Emperor.

"Calm down... calm down!"

"It's essentially just a huge textbook that leads directly to becoming an academician. How much I can learn depends on my own comprehension."

Taiyi calmed his turbulent mind, and then his primordial spirit looked at another item bestowed by the Human Emperor.

What could it be?

The light was too bright for him to see through.

With a single move, the object fell into the primordial spirit's palm like a streak of light.

The light faded, revealing something.

Taiyi looked closely and was taken aback.

On the palm of his hand lay a miniature golden dragon, which was now opening its mouth to inhale and exhale innate spiritual energy.

In the blink of an eye, the golden dragon transformed into a fire phoenix, its wings outstretched, surrounded by innate spiritual fire.

After that, the Black Tortoise, the White Tiger, the Teng Snake... kept changing.

But no matter what kind of innate divine object it transforms into, Taiyi can always sense a terrifying sharpness hidden within it.

"This is... a sword embryo?"

Taiyi guessed, and then a flood of information came in.

It was a message left behind by the Human Emperor.

Innate Sword Embryo!

Or rather, it is the embryo of a primordial spiritual treasure!

"This...reward is a bit too astonishing!"

Taiyi was alarmed. "However, it seems I don't have anything that the Emperor could scheme against."

"Although my Dao Tree contains a great many techniques and supernatural powers, it should not be much to a powerhouse like the Human Emperor."

"The only concern is that the Emperor said in the Lingxiao Palace that I have innate wisdom."

"In other words, the Human Emperor knows that I am a time traveler... no, not a time traveler. The meaning of 'innate wisdom' is innate intelligence. I am not an innate being, so 'innate wisdom' means that I am a reincarnated person."

Taiyi frowned, pondering, "Perhaps because of my identity, the Human Emperor has some schemes at play, and has made a move against me?"

"But in any case, with my current cultivation level and strength, I can only obediently become a pawn."

After thinking it through, Taiyi stopped hesitating.

A nascent sword embryo, if properly nurtured, will one day become a nascent spiritual treasure.

Whatever the motives, let's eat first!

Having digested the information left by the Human Emperor, Taiyi also understood how to cultivate this innate sword embryo.

The most direct and fastest way is to feed it directly with Xuanhuang Merit.

However, what the Emperor said was not the best approach.

He used up all his merits, at most turning this innate sword embryo into a low-grade innate spiritual treasure.

This innate sword embryo contains a ray of innate spiritual light and a path of innate swordsmanship.

The wonder of the Primordial Dao lies in its ability to evolve on its own.

One is a connection to the great principles of heaven and earth.

Secondly, they are connected with their master and complement each other.

The Human Emperor clearly saw that he had a great talent for swordsmanship, so he suggested that the sword embryo be improved with Xuanhuang merits after it matured.

Taiyi also found this method to be to his liking.

With his current cultivation level, even if he obtained a low-grade innate spiritual treasure, it wouldn't be of much help.

The Heavenly Golden Sky-Splitting Divine Sword bestowed by the Five Dragons Clan is quite powerful, and can be used at least up to the level of a Divine Lord, which is more than enough for now.

"It complements the sword embryo in my deduction and comprehension of the sword path, while the Xuanhuang merit golden light can also help me comprehend the Great Dao. It is a win-win situation."

Taiyi made his decision and immediately placed the sword embryo into the halo of merit behind the primordial spirit's head.

Immediately afterwards, the Dao talisman belonging to swordsmanship within the lower dantian also flew into the Purple Mansion, disappearing into the circle of merit light, and shining brightly with the sword embryo.

Immediately, Taiyi felt that the innate sword embryo emitted a ringing sound, and its evolution speed seemed to have increased slightly.

At the same time, the sword techniques and talismans he had cultivated absorbed and released innate sword energy from the innate sword embryo, and all sorts of profound sword principles kept surging into his mind.

Taiyi couldn't help but smile and exclaim, "Excellent!"

After dealing with the gifts bestowed by the Human Emperor, Taiyi turned his gaze to the lower dantian.

The pure, golden essence here is like a vast ocean.

Above this sea of ​​essence, countless Dao talismans shimmered with spiritual light and were constantly rotating.

These talismans are centered around the Nine Breaths Breathing Technique, a divine talisman, with two other talismans surrounding it: the Guiding Technique and the Breathing Technique.

Above that is the Dao Seed of Five Thunders, which together form a dual core, surrounded and rotated by five Dao Talismans: Five Dragons Golden Light Technique, Five Dragons Life-Extending Technique, Five Dragons Water Purification Technique, Five Dragons Evil-Burning Technique, and Five Dragons Earth-Suppressing Soul Technique.

The mastery of the Five Thunder Divine Power was not bestowed by the Five Dragons Clan, but rather originated from the Dao Tree.

The thunder magic is profound, so my understanding of it is shallow; it is still a seed of the Dao, not yet transformed into a Dao talisman.

The reason why Taiyi started cultivating and mastering the powerful Five Thunders technique now was not for fighting enemies, but for refining his essence and eliminating evil.

In the primordial world today, innate spiritual energy permeates the space, and it is inherently pure.

However, the art of breathing exercises involves taking in all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth at once, inevitably mixing in various impurities such as malevolent energy and evil energy.

Especially now, with the chaos of war between gods and demons in the primordial world, all sorts of unfavorable auras, such as malevolent energy, evil energy, and demonic energy, are rampant.

Consuming small amounts in a short period of time is not a problem, but excessive amounts will definitely endanger your life.

In addition, there is the supernatural power of Nine Breaths Breathing, which allows one to absorb the pure energy of the Nine Heavens.

For example, the innate Yin Qi, the innate Yang Qi, the innate pure Yang Qi, the innate pure Yin Qi, and so on.

This corresponds precisely to the turbid qi of the Five Elements.

However, some evil spirits and demons that arise in the world prefer to hide in the pure innate energy.

The most dangerous of them all is the Heavenly Demon.

Since he began cultivating, Taiyi had never encountered a celestial demon, but he had encountered demonic spirits and evil spirits more than once. They were either reduced to ashes by the Five Dragons Dao Technique or struck dead by the Five Thunderbolts.

Protecting the Dao and refining one's essence are two benefits in one fell swoop.

This is why, after only three realms, his physique and blood energy were comparable to those of innate gods and demons, and demigods descended from gods and demons.

Besides the Five Dragons Refining Spirit Talisman and the Five Dragons Refining Form Talisman, which are integrated with the primordial spirit and physical body, there are exactly nine Dao talismans.

Each talisman represents a new realm, progressing step by step.

After all, Dao talismans also require vital essence to activate them.

Those who are already physically strong can cultivate several Dao talismans at once.

However, those who lack sufficient accumulation must proceed step by step to form a positive cycle.

Having too many Taoist talismans, and accumulating more than you can consume, is tantamount to courting death.

"So, the more detailed the classification of realms, the more it actually serves those who aren't very intelligent?"

Tai Yi couldn't help but chuckle.

Indeed, people with extremely high comprehension don't need any acquired cultivation system for becoming gods.

Having the "Five Dragons Refining the Dao Divine Diagram" is enough.

Once one's cultivation reaches a certain level, the divine talisman is instantly created, and one becomes a god on the spot!

Therefore, it becomes clear why, despite the countless gods and demons, no one has developed a detailed system for cultivating godhood through acquired means.

Taiyi's primordial spirit moved its gaze, seeing the acupoints and seas of essence within its body.

His entire body's acupoints were filled with abundant and pure essence. In his mind, this was the completion of the third realm of cultivation.

"Unfortunately, I do not understand the Way of the Stars, otherwise I might have been able to advance further."

Shaking his head inwardly, Taiyi began to consider his next stage of cultivation, the fourth realm.

Although reaching the third realm of cultivation would make him comparable to a demigod, he felt it wasn't enough.

Moreover, not everyone among the human race can do what he did.

Most people cannot compare to demigods in the third realm.

Therefore, whether from one's own perspective or from the perspective of the entire human race, the cultivation system still needs to be improved.

He had already planned this when he compiled the theories of traditional Chinese medicine he had learned on Earth as the theoretical basis for his acquired cultivation system of becoming a god.

"The next step is to cultivate the middle dantian!"

Taiyi's gaze fell on the middle dantian.

The *Baopuzi Neipian* (Inner Chapters of the Master Who Embraces Simplicity), in its chapter "Earthly Truth," states: "The crimson palace and golden tower below the heart are the middle dantian."

The Dongui Bogam states: "The middle dantian is the residence of qi."

The lower dantian is where the pure and impure, yin and yang, combine to strengthen the essence.

The middle dantian, however, requires special cultivation of the Five Elements, Five Elements, and Five Qi.

This is also in accordance with the practice of the Earth God.

Taiyi's philosophy is that all the cultivation done before becoming a god lays the foundation for becoming a god, thus echoing the cultivation system after becoming a god.

"The Five Elements and Five Dragons Dao Techniques are quite suitable for laying a foundation, but I have already formed a system in my lower dantian."

Taiyi's primordial spirit stood up and turned to look at the Dao Tree.

The tree trunks of the Taoist tree resemble coiled dragons, with lush foliage layered upon layer, each bearing a Taoist seed.

The higher one goes, the fewer the number of Dao seeds there are, which also means that the supernatural powers are more profound and astonishing.

Taiyi's gaze swept over each Dao Seed, then settled on it after a moment.

The innate five-colored divine light!

This supernatural power is undoubtedly famous and absolutely no less powerful than the supernatural power of mastering the Five Thunders.

However, it is conceivable that mastering this supernatural power would be no less difficult than mastering the Five Thunders.

Taiyi then looked at another divine ability: "The Five Elements Great Escape technique is also suitable..."
