He now has a very high opinion of Jiang Guangtou.

"Brother Jingjiang, it's still a bit stuffy here."

Jiang Guangtou couldn't help but say.

After all, as a wolf of the Huangpu River, he had always frequented brothels, and he couldn't indulge himself in this run-down place.

Although I've kept the habit of writing a diary, it's become so boring.

"It's alright, I'll treat you to a nice meal when the time comes."

Zhang Jingjiang revealed a meaningful smile.

However, he clearly did not know that he would be betrayed by Jiang Guangtou in the future.

"Then I'll thank you in advance."

Jiang Guangtou chuckled.

He was previously ignored; Zhang Jingjiang, on the other hand, was extremely wealthy and not only supported Mr. Sun at his own expense for many years, but also had extensive connections and funds.

Zhang Jingjiang greatly admired his ambition and military capabilities, and repeatedly recommended him to Mr. Sun and spoke highly of him, which led Mr. Sun to give him an important position.

He was still somewhat grateful.

But not many.

As someone who wouldn't act without a reason, he felt that he and Zhang Jingjiang had mutually benefited each other.

Time flies, and half a month later.

The void rippled gently, and tiny ripples of spacetime spread out quietly. There were no earth-shattering phenomena, only a faint ray of light that was so faint as to be almost invisible falling to the ground.

Chen Yuan's figure slowly emerged from the void, wearing a suit that he had bought back in the Republic of China era. As a rich second-generation, he was naturally not short of money.

"I traveled from Tianjin to here using a time machine, so this place is also Tianjin."

Chen Yuan looked around.

Nadutong North China Region is also located here.

Zhang Chulan and the others should be here too.

It's estimated that soon some of the staff from Nadutong will spot him and notify Zhang Chulan and the others.

"The senior has come again?"

Upon receiving this news, Zhang Chulan also got up.

"I'm going to see him and ask about my old man."

Feng Baobao also got up.

"I'll go take a look too."

Wang Ye also touched his chin; he was also very interested in Chen Yuan.

A short while later, near a restaurant, Zhang Chulan and his group met Chen Yuan again.

"Senior Chen! You've come again."

Zhang Chulan's eyes lit up, he chuckled, and quickly moved closer.

"This person looks quite young, but the aura emanating from him..."

Wang Ye looked Chen Yuan up and down, feeling slightly surprised.

This person is quite extraordinary; their cultivation level is unfathomable.

"Wang Ye?"

Chen Yuan was also sizing up Wang Ye.

This guy looks exactly like the one in the comics, with a lazy and listless appearance.

Moreover, this kid probably hasn't grasped the true usage of Feng Hou Qi Men yet, and he's experiencing frequent side effects.

"How is my father? Is he doing well over there?"

Feng Baobao also looked curious.

"That troublemaker Wugensheng is naturally fine now."

Chen Yuan shrugged.

"Senior, have you met all thirty-six thieves? Do you know Zhou Sheng, Ma Benzai, Wugensheng, and the others?"

Zhang Chulan's eyes darted around, and then he asked with a smile.

When Chen Yuan came last time, he didn't have time to ask in detail.

"Yes, senior. I am Wang Ye from Wudang. I would like to inquire about Senior Zhou Sheng and Feng Hou Qi Men."

Wang Ye scratched his head and looked at Chen Yuan.

"It's natural that we know each other. Feng Hou Qi Men? Of course I know that too. But, kid, do you experience any side effects every time you use Feng Hou Qi Men?"

Chen Yuan smiled slightly and looked at Wang Ye.

"How did you know, senior?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Ye gave a dry laugh.

That's why he wanted to ask Chen Yuan about this matter.

"Nonsense! Did you place the central palace of Feng Hou Qi Men outside your body? You forgot that Feng Hou Qi Men is ever-changing and can control the changes of all things, but human power is limited."

How could one possibly control the changes in heaven and earth? But what about one's own changes?

Chen Yuan smiled slightly, then pointed to his heart.

"Are you saying that the central palace in Feng Hou Qi Men doesn't necessarily have to be located outside the body, but inside?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Ye was immediately taken aback.

"Huh?"

Zhang Chulan, standing to the side, was completely bewildered.

"What do you mean?"

Feng Baobao was also quite curious.

"Could it be a primordial spirit?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Ye's eyes suddenly lit up.

"fart!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yuan rolled his eyes.

The primordial spirit is the most peaceful place, but also the least suitable place to determine the central palace. The primordial spirit prefers tranquility, while the Feng Hou Qi Men formation is ever-changing. If Wang Ye were to determine the central palace within his primordial spirit, the changes would disturb his mind, and Wang Ye would probably end up like Chen Jinkui.

"Not the primordial spirit?"

Wang was somewhat bewildered.

Did I guess wrong?

"Your primordial spirit is so pure. If you really stay still there, you'll end up like your uncle. Feng Hou can stay still anywhere except for the primordial spirit. The most suitable place to stay, in accordance with the setting of change, is a place that is constantly changing and generating rhythm, which is our heart. The moment the heart beats is the most stable. Taking the heart as the central palace also corresponds to the true essence of Feng Hou Qi Men."

Chen Yuan said calmly.

"Yes, it's the heart! The ancients used a pole to measure shadows, thus determining Yin and Yang, the four directions, the Eight Trigrams, and the twenty-four solar terms, ultimately dividing it into 72 pentads. Seventy-two is the number of changes in the celestial sphere, also known as the seventy-two pentads. By controlling one's own Qi, one can grasp the changes of heaven and earth, transforming oneself into a ruler. In the Journey to the West setting, the Mind Monkey is Wukong, who possesses the seventy-two transformations, able to transform into all things in heaven and earth, and is all-powerful, capable of everything!"

Wang Ye's eyes suddenly lit up.

So it was the heart. He hadn't even thought of that.

If the heart is taken as the central palace, it is equivalent to having a built-in mobile Qimen Dunjia formation.

Traditional Wuhou Qimen and ordinary sorcerers have their central palace fixed on the ground beneath their feet. The formation is a "static circle" with a fixed range. It becomes ineffective when the enemy leaves the range, and the formation needs to be constantly moved and rearranged.

Feng Hou Qi Men Dun Jia anchors the central palace to the heart, resulting in two major qualitative changes:

Wherever the people are, that's where the center of the formation is.

The heart moves with the body, and the entire four plates (Heaven, Earth, Man, and God) move synchronously with itself as the core. There are no restrictions on the range of the formation. Wherever it goes, that is the domain of Qimen control, and there is no need to set up the formation at a fixed point.

One is the master of one's own destiny, able to manipulate the seventy-two phases of change at will!

The central palace is located in the heart, and the body's Qi channels are integrated with the four plates of Qimen Dunjia. There is no need to distinguish between "arranging the array" and "casting spells". With a thought, one can manipulate time and space, the five elements, and good and bad fortune. At the same time, one can rely on the heart rhythm to control the seventy-two phases of heaven and earth, and achieve the ever-changing physical body.

Moreover, the heart corresponds to the "seventy-two pentads" of heaven and earth, adapting to the ever-changing nature of the wind.

The core of Feng Hou Qi Men is to control the changes in the seasons of heaven and earth: a year has twenty-four solar terms, five days make a pentad, totaling seventy-two pentads. The birth and death of all things in the world and the flow of time and space all depend on the operation of the seventy-two pentads.

The heart is the only organ in the human body that circulates continuously, never stops, and has its own constant rhythm. Each beat corresponds to a "period" of circulation.

Feng Hou Qi Men requires constantly adjusting the four plates and altering the flow of time and space; it is an extremely volatile and ever-changing technique.

If the still and quiet primordial spirit and dantian are taken as the central palace, the tranquil mind will violently clash with the ever-changing formation, directly disturbing the soul and ultimately leading to madness.

The heart beats continuously, with movement and stillness complementing each other, perfectly carrying out the cycle of the seventy-two phases of the body. It is the only part of the body that can withstand massive temporal changes.

Moreover, Taoist alchemy theory holds that the mind is the Crimson Palace, the master of the entire body's spirit.

"Thank you for your guidance, senior!"

Wang Ye's eyes suddenly lit up.

He only just realized the intricacies of it all.

The heart is the Crimson Palace, and all the spirits of the five internal organs are governed by the heart. The blood and qi of the whole body and the innate qi are all circulated and regulated by the heart. It corresponds to the Earth in the central palace of the Nine Palaces and governs the core attributes of the eight directions and eight trigrams.

In Qimen Dunjia, the central palace represents the overall center and the core of decision-making. The human body is a microcosm, and the heart is the "central palace" of the human body's universe. To determine the center with the heart means to govern the four plates of heaven and earth with one's own heart, which is in line with the true meaning of Feng Hou: "I am the direction, I am the fortune and misfortune."

The Li trigram corresponds to the heart fire and the spirit. Only by storing the Li fire and spirit in the central palace can one mobilize the innate Qi of the whole body and forcibly tamper with the established rules of heaven and earth.

"It's good that you understand, kid. The primordial spirit is hidden in the Niwan point, and its nature is pure and still. It is only suitable for quiet introspection and cannot bear the endless temporal changes of Feng Hou Qi Men; "

The ever-changing Qimen formation will continuously impact the pure primordial spirit, causing the mind and spirit to be completely split, trapped in an eternal illusion, and ultimately unable to escape from the inner world.

The heart's activity and stillness are in balance; its pulsation represents change, while the blood vessels' stability represents stillness. This perfect harmony of movement and stillness is the only truly reliable anchor point in Qimen Dunjia, representing the endless variations within the system.

Chen Yuan also spoke eloquently.

The Wuhou Qimen method involves placing the central palace under one's feet, positioning oneself within the formation, separating the person from the overall situation, and deriving techniques in accordance with the rules of heaven and earth, resulting in minimal backlash.
