Chapter 12 The Ruyi Jingu Bang
After the initial excitement, Chen Chunan began to summarize.
First of all, the method of refining the Golden Elixir should be "correct," and now the consciousness has a bit of pure Yang.
To completely transform into pure Yang, one only needs to refine the Golden Crow, which represents the Yin hidden within the sun, and then the Yin impurities in the consciousness will be refined and transformed into Yang spirit.
As the saying goes, "The moon hides the jade rabbit, the sun hides the crow, and the tortoise and snake are intertwined."
Although the moon phases were shattered by his axe, and the moon rabbit transformed into a golden crow, the yang energy is now even stronger. Perhaps he has inadvertently saved himself a lot of hard work in the process of refining qi into spirit.
Secondly, the Five Elements spiritual power also gave me a very unexpected surprise.
Previously, I had planned to give up cultivating the spiritual energy of this world and switch to internal alchemy.
Now it seems we really can't let it go. When I captured the Azure Dragon, I didn't follow the complete Small Heavenly Circuit, and even reversed the flow of the meridians.
However, the spiritual energy of water and wood that it stirred up was also quite astonishing!
If before, when I was cultivating and absorbing spiritual energy, it was like drinking water through a straw, then just now it was like a tap water pipe was directly into my mouth.
This speed is probably even stronger than that of the so-called true spiritual root with three spiritual roots!
Cultivating spiritual energy also has a strong nourishing effect on the body; it's no exaggeration to say that it involves cultivating both body and spirit.
Perhaps I could cultivate internal alchemy and qi cultivation simultaneously?
Faced with such an enticing choice, Chen Chunan hesitated almost without hesitation.
He sat down directly on the futon, once again drawing upon the five elements of spiritual energy. This time, it wasn't for gathering herbs, but simply for circulating the energy according to the Small Heavenly Circuit.
Chen Chunan quickly realized something was wrong. The Small Heavenly Circuit starts from the coccyx, first travels along the Governing Vessel, and then returns to the Conception Vessel.
However, the lakeside was already filled with a large amount of spiritual energy from water and wood, and the clan had also added a small spirit-gathering array to facilitate Chen Hongxian's cultivation.
The three spiritual elements of earth, fire, and metal are extremely rare.
When Chen Chunan channeled his energy to Jiaji Pass, the incredibly active water and wood spiritual energies that had been stirred up by the Azure Dragon rushed towards him like moths to a flame.
When the spiritual energy of water and wood circulated through the microcosmic orbit to the gate of life, it aroused Chen Chunan's desires.
He could only hurriedly recite the incantation to dispel evil thoughts.
After finally managing to purify his mind and spirit, and as his spiritual energy circulated through the Du Meridian and entered the Yellow Court, the water and wood spiritual energy descended from the sky, submerging half of the Five Elements Mountain underwater, and the Five Elements Mountain was also covered with vegetation.
The poor monkey had turned into a water monkey, baring its teeth and cursing incessantly.
Chen Chunan knew he had overlooked environmental factors and shouldn't have cultivated in a place where the Water and Wood Gathering Spirit Array had been set up.
The practice of internal alchemy emphasizes refining yin impurities into pure yang. Whether it is the consciousness belonging to yin spirit or the self belonging to the acquired body, the ultimate goal is to transform it into a pure yang body.
Now that the spiritual energy of water and wood is nourishing the liver and kidneys and suppressing the restless mind, isn't that an imbalance of yin and yang? If things go wrong, I'm afraid all my previous efforts will be in vain!
Chen Chunan was in a state of confusion and didn't know what to do.
At this moment, the Heart Monkey, who was utterly disheveled and submerged in the sea formed by the water elemental energy, finally spoke up: "You filthy idiot! You dare to stir up the Yin energy of your liver and kidneys with just a little bit of pure Yang Qi! Let me out! I'll clean up your mess!"
Chen Chunan was utterly astonished upon hearing the sound of the monkey's heart.
The little monkey that was born today can already speak human language?
Chen Chunan knew he had no better way, so he gritted his teeth, and with a thought, the Five Elements Mountain collapsed, and the Mind Monkey was immediately freed.
The monkey suddenly somersaulted out of the water, overjoyed.
After scratching its head and cheeks for a while, it finally remembered the important matter, and then raised its head and sucked its lips as if it were eating.
Chen Chunan immediately felt the metal and wood qi in his heart and lungs drawing in the metal and wood spiritual energy in the void, which rushed into his middle dantian.
The spiritual energies of water, fire, metal, and wood gradually tend towards balance.
Then, concentrate your mind and calm your breath to circulate it throughout your body, sending it back to the lower dantian.
Chen Chunan's spiritual cultivation also rose accordingly, advancing from the third level of Qi Refining to the fifth level in one fell swoop.
Only a portion of the Five Elements spiritual energy remained, intertwined and inseparable with the Five Qi in the chest, forming a swirling mass of Qi that settled in the middle dantian.
Looking at the Heart Monkey that effortlessly resolved the situation for him, Chen Chunan was momentarily unsure whether he should thank it.
Seeing that the situation was under control, Xin Yuan nodded in satisfaction, then said to Chen Chunan, "The time has come! Hurry up and master the divine power!"
Chen Chunan woke up with a start and met his gaze, instantly realizing what had happened.
With a thought, Chen Chunan used the pure Yang Qi of the Golden Elixir to guide the Five Qi to temper that swirling spiritual energy, placing metal in the east, fire in the north, water in the south, and wood in the west, and repeatedly tempering it with the virtue of earth.
The five elements gathered and reversed their course, and after an unknown period of time, they were finally forged into a black iron rod of uniform thickness with golden hoops at both ends.
With a thought, Chen Chunan unleashed the black iron rod he had just forged from his dantian. The rod appeared to be iron, but was actually qi.
Chen Chunan discovered that the Ruyi Jingu Bang did not need to be held in his hand; he could control it with a mere thought, making it incredibly flexible.
"So this is the Ruyi Jingu Bang (Golden Cudgel), which utilizes the five elements and gathers them into one. It's not a weapon but a supernatural power?"
Having suddenly gained supernatural powers, Chen Chunan couldn't help but feel eager to try them out.
But this quiet room definitely won't do.
As he spoke, Chen Chunan planned to go to the ground to find a place to test it.
I had just stepped out of the quiet room when I saw my younger sister squatting by the door.
Chen Chunan was taken aback: "Hongxian, what's wrong? Why are you squatting here?"
Hongxian's eyes were filled with admiration for her brother's amazing abilities: "Brother, were you cultivating just now? You drained all the spiritual energy here! Brother, has your talent improved?"
"Oh? Is that so? How long have you been cultivating, brother?"
"My brother has been cultivating for three hours!"
Three hours? Wouldn't that delay Hongxian's midday cultivation?
Chen Chunan was so focused on testing the Ruyi Jingu Bang that he didn't notice anything amiss.
At this moment, the cultivation technique had no effect whatsoever; not even a hair could absorb it.
"Oh, that's true. But you have to keep this red thread a secret for your brother, you can't tell anyone."
Hongxian nodded vigorously: "Hongxian promises not to tell anyone!"
Although Hongxian is young, she knows that the speed at which one absorbs spiritual energy represents the level of one's spiritual root.
She also knew how much her brother wanted to cultivate himself.
"Hmm, I knew Red Thread was the most obedient. By the way, I have to go out for a bit. You stay here and behave yourself."
"Oh, brother, are you going out? I want to go too!"
Chen Chunan hesitated for a moment, but still agreed: "Okay, but you're not allowed to run around."
Although he has just begun to develop supernatural powers, he is not sure what his actual strength is.
His spiritual cultivation was only at the fifth level of Qi Refining, and his inner core cultivation was only at the initial stage of consciousness and a little bit of pure Yang.
As for protective measures, the only one is the Ruyi Jingu Bang, whose power is unknown.
It's just that my younger sister hasn't learned any magic yet, otherwise I would have a point of comparison.
As for the other clansmen, Chen Chunan did not want to reveal them for the time being. So many people in the clan had poor aptitude, and if they knew that there was a cultivation method that did not consider aptitude, it would be a big problem.
I fear I will no longer have time to cultivate. If word gets out, I, being so weak, may not be able to save my life.
It's better to play it safe.
Chen Chunan led Chen Hongxian out of the house and headed towards the back mountain.
Soon they arrived at a secluded, barren slope.
"Red Thread, wait here for your brother. In a moment, your brother will go and test his supernatural powers."
"Supernatural abilities? The clan leader said that supernatural abilities can only be learned by those at the Golden Core stage?"
The little girl was very surprised.
Chen Chunan didn't explain much. He simply faced the large blue stone, and with a thought, the Ruyi Jingu Bang flew out and smashed it down hard.
In an instant, the entire bluestone turned to dust, and even a huge trench appeared on the ground.
hiss~
Chen Chunan gasped. He had thought he would be lucky to even crack the large rock.
Unexpectedly, it pulverized the stone! It even created a deep crater in the ground, and groundwater was visibly seeping out.
With a thought, Chen Chunan retrieved the Ruyi Jingu Bang and stroked it with his hand.
Looking at the Ruyi Jingu Bang, which constantly changed size and length according to his will, Chen Chunan couldn't help but exclaim in admiration:
"What amazing power! Truly amazing power! This power is already so strong at its very beginning. No wonder Sun Wukong could subdue demons and monsters all the way with just his golden cudgel."
